Chapter 163: Battle Begins
Almost two hours after they left, a black figure suddenly appeared in the ruins of the mine.
His entire body was wrapped in black protective clothing, with a knife hanging on his waist. There was a tube connecting the mask on his head to the back.
There is no doubt that this is the emperor's inner guard.
At this moment, the internal guard also saw the symbol of the sickle of change left in the ruins of the mine.
"...hiss... huh...those arrogant fools who tried to overthrow Ursus, they couldn't even understand the glory that belonged to the emperor...hiss... huh...it seems that there are still some remnants here, we still haven't done it cleanly enough."
Not far away, another inner guard also came out.
"Yes...hiss...using Originium techniques to cover up your tracks? Pointless resistance, we can quickly destroy these remnants..."
Although the snow monsters and adventurers used some abilities to eliminate traces, and with the continuous snowfall here, it is basically difficult to determine their movements.
However, the opponent this time is the emperor's inner guard, and they know the guys of the Scythe of Change. Their most likely move is...
"There is an infected mine nearby. All the infected here are gone. They will definitely attack this place due to lack of food and clothes."
…………………………Dividing line…………………………
Two hours ago, the focus shifted back to the adventurer and the snow monster team. Now, Froststar and the adventurer were on a high ground not far from the infected mine, observing the situation below.
Compared with the infected mine mentioned above, the defense here is much stronger.
There were several barriers at the gate, and many people were patrolling outside the mine. Moreover, they saw many supervisors inside. Compared with the supervisors in the previous place, the supervisors here were better equipped. Shuangxing also saw some with rifles.
There are also some watchtowers inside, and on top of each watchtower there are soldiers holding crossbows.
"Are you kidding? You're telling me this is just an ordinary infected mine? I thought this was the base of some infected patrol team..."
This was a complaint from a member of the Yeti Squad. He was not wrong. The defense strength here was really outrageous. In addition, there were some infected patrol teams active in the area. For ordinary infected people, it was impossible to escape.
If Frost Star and the others want to take over this place, they will most likely pay a heavy price.
"How about it, do you have any ideas about the situation there?"
Froststar asked the adventurer next to her that their snow monster team needed to take over as much of the mine as possible.
According to their understanding, the supplies here are much more abundant than those in the infected mine. And these things are what their snow monster team and the patriots in other places need.
She was going to see what the adventurers had to say. Just now, their captain had suggested something that she thought might work.
"Well, then, let's do it your way..."
After determining the general situation of the infected mine, Froststar and the adventurer returned to where the team was.
All the infected people rescued from the infected mine above are now here.
There is no suitable place to live in this area, and it is quite far from the main force of their guerrillas. They can only keep moving with all the infected people.
This goal is too big, and the cost is the same. Looking at the infected people who were happily communicating with their teammates, Shuangxing sighed.
Leave the rest of the time to the adventurers.
"Everyone, there is another infected mine ahead of us. Yes, that's right, it is the same place as the mine that oppressed and tortured you before.
Now, we don't have enough supplies, and with so many people passing through there, they will most likely be discovered. So, we hope to rescue our oppressed compatriots in the infected mine just like we rescued you."
At this point, the infected people below were already extremely excited.
"Then let's act quickly. I'll beat up those bastards one by one."
The other infected people also agreed with this idea and hoped to take over the mine as soon as possible.
The captain motioned for them to be quiet, then continued.
"The guards in this mine are even stronger, and there are no comrades in the mine who can help us in this operation. In order to take over this mine, we need some sacrifices."
The captain pointed at his team members and said, "We are from another team, the Scythe of Change warriors. Each of us is an elite. Next, we will be divided into five teams to attract the supervisors in the mine. In order to prevent them from discovering any problems, we also need some people to voluntarily join us and become the death squad..."
This is what the captain and his men think. Even if they suppress their combat power to level C, they are still among the best masters in this snowy field.
As long as they bring a dozen more people to attack the mine, the guards there will completely regard them as close to the main force.
Attack from five directions to disperse the enemy's forces, and then Froststar will lead the Snow Monster Squad to take over the mine in one go.
Therefore, the death squads led by adventurers, especially the first and second attacking teams, need to face most of the forces in the mine and are the most dangerous.
The captain made it clear here that what he needed were willing and brave soldiers.
However, the performance of the infected was also very satisfactory. After understanding the situation, they hesitated for a moment before coming forward to express their desire to join the death squad.
There were hundreds of infected people rescued from the mine before. Because of their previous experiences of being oppressed in the mine, they were all willing to join the battle to rescue their compatriots.
Each adventurer selected fifteen people who were in relatively good condition, distributed weapons to them (from the mine supervisors, and some were pickaxes), and took them to sneak into different directions of the mine, such as the main entrance and both sides.
The snow monster team led by Froststar came to a location at the back of the mine, waiting for the adventurers to lure away the supervisors and guards before they could attack.
Author's Notes:
It’s so boring. Not many people set off firecrackers this year. It feels like the New Year atmosphere is not strong enough…
Chapter 164: Surprise Attack
Now, everyone is ready.
The captain saw that in the direction he was attacking, several guards on patrol had just walked over and made a gesture to the suicide squad members behind him, indicating that they could start the action.
"Shh."
"Do you feel like something is a little off?"
A guard suddenly had a bad feeling for some reason.
"Me too, it seems..."
As they walked, the guard hadn't even finished his words when their heads left their bodies.
The captain's job is [Dual Warrior], a high-level job that has the ability to create a clone with the same abilities and combat experience as himself.
At the same time, as long as one of the two bodies is not destroyed during the battle, the other one can be used to resurrect.
Although this ability cannot be demonstrated now, his combat effectiveness is still very high.
In just a moment, the four guards with their backs to him all lost their heads.
"Let's go, keep moving and get those Originium explosives ready. We're going to give those guards a big one."
The captain instructed the suicide squad members behind him that what they were holding were the bombs used for blasting operations in the previous infected mine.
Stick the bomb on the wall and move away from it. An infected person who has activated the Originium technique will detonate the bomb.
"boom."
There was an explosion on the left side of the infected mine. The bomb carried by the captain and his men was quite powerful, and it directly made a big hole in the wall, allowing the suicide squad to enter easily.
"Everyone, follow me."
The captain was the first to rush forward, followed closely by the infected people with their weapons in hand.
The guards inside, those patrolling outside, and the supervisors also heard the noise here, and some soldiers came over here.
"Humph, these people, who are they looking down on..."
The captain swung the two swords in his hands very quickly. Although his strength was hidden, their weapons were still B-level.
The standard weapons held by the guards and supervisors could not withstand the attack at all and were cut off as soon as they made contact.
The captain kept moving towards the position of the mine manager that he had seen from above, while the members of the suicide squad were behind him, blocking the enemies coming from behind.
And his other team member, [Indestructible City], secretly cast a shield effect on everyone nearby to ensure that the members of the suicide squad would not die for a while.
The captain took action here, but only attracted a part of the enemies. At the gate, the deputy captain [Frozen Soul] also started to act.
With snow under his feet, his profession was very strong in this environment. Almost in an instant, he came to the enemies guarding the gate, and then swung the sword in his hand, wrapped in cold air.
The roadblocks and enemies were all turned into ice sculptures, and the organs inside their bodies were destroyed by the deathly cold.
The suicide squad members following him also charged towards the gate at this time.
The guards who were not injured in the previous attack also reacted and aimed their crossbows and muskets at them and opened fire.
Without panic, the deputy captain stepped on the ground with his left foot, and an ice wall formed to block the attacks. The arrows and bullets were only embedded in it but could not break the ice wall.
Those members of the suicide squad who followed used the ice wall as cover and shot at the enemy with the crossbows they had just obtained.
As bait, they did not need to be trained, and they did not have many arrows. However, the series of attacks just now were enough to make the enemy believe that they were the main force of the guerrillas attacking the mine this time.
The nanny next to them just watched. Under the protection of the ice wall, they were not hurt at all, making it seem as if she was redundant.
Inside the mine, because of two consecutive high-intensity attacks, it has become a mess. Some people need to go to support the gate, and some people need to stop the captain and others from harming the owner of the mine.
…………………………Dividing line…………………………
In the very center of the infected mine is where the owner of this place, a down-and-out noble, lives.
Their family began to decline under his father, and he spent a lot of money to build a mine here to sustain the family activities.
Knowing that this place might be attacked by enemies such as infected guerrillas, a lot of the mine's profits are used to hire guards.
Just now, William was enjoying his lunch at the dining table when he was frightened by the sudden explosion and the sound of fighting.
At this time, his servant came over and told him that some powerful infected people had invaded the gate and the left wall.
"...Is it finally here? Fortunately, I was prepared. Go and fire the signal flares to notify the patrol teams to come over. Since they are experts, both sides should be the main force... Ha, if they split their forces into two groups, how can they take over my mine?
Let those guards go and take care of them quickly so as not to disturb my meal."
In this way, most of the guards were transferred there.
On the right and behind, the adventurers and Froststar's Snow Monster Squad, seeing that the situation here was almost the same, began to attack at the same time.
A large amount of ice appeared out of nowhere and turned into arrows, nailing the guards who didn't react in time to the ground.
The members of the Snow Monster Squad that followed up, some were shooting with rifles, while others were controlling the infected creatures to run towards the enemy.
On the right, [Astropath] threw a gravity core into the middle of the enemies. The sudden attraction brought them together, and the innermost enemies were turned into meat paste.
Then there was a repulsive field, and all the flying objects that attacked him deviated from their trajectory in a strange arc after getting close to him for a certain distance.
As for the suicide squad members there, the arrows they fired and the etched bullets all received a boost effect, making them faster and more lethal.
Because the situation here was good, the other two suicide squads originally planned did not choose to attack, but instead stood guard nearby.
This is to prevent the infected patrol team active in the area from discovering the situation and rushing over to help.
"Swish, snap."
A flare exploded in the sky, and in the distance, in a village, the infected patrol team that had just finished looting saw it.
"Captain, it seems to be the direction of William's mine. Could something have happened? Should we go over and take a look..."
“Let’s go there later. If the enemy is weak, we won’t have to fight.
The enemy is powerful, and we can escape as soon as we arrive.
If they are evenly matched, we will be helping them in time if we go over there, and we won't suffer any loss. And we will go over there anyway, so William can't say anything."
"The captain is still smart..."
"So, I am your captain."
The infected patrol teams slowly moved towards there.
Author's Notes:
You guys said, when will the End of the World be available for public testing? It feels like it’s been a long time since then…
Chapter 165: Davari
The operation went very smoothly. Too smoothly in fact.
The main force of the mine guards were all at the gate and on the left. Froststar and the adventurer who entered from the right easily came to the center of the mine, where the noble was.
"boom."
As the explosion sounded, the small villa collapsed, and the guards who saw this also lost their desire to fight.
The boss is gone, why are you still working so hard here? Shoot a few more arrows and run away, it will be worthy of the salary I paid before.
