Act 78 Beyond Control
Reddy and another man had turned and started running, shouting in the direction of the camp as they ran. ! Biquge
‘Tiger Bird’ immediately chased after him.
When he moved, his figure was like a continuous shadow blending into the environment in the dark forest; it was not fast, but it was quiet and admirable, as if this mercenary was originally a creature living in the darkness.
But Brando turned around, and there was already the sound of chains dragging on the ground in the dark forest behind him.
"The Black Fire Cultists have discovered what's going on here——"
"There has to be another way."
He frowned slightly.
Antitina and Roman had already taken off the light crossbows from under their backpacks, and the noble daughter stared nervously into the forest. Not to mention the other mercenaries, everyone gently pulled out their weapons and entered a state of preparation for war.
"My lord?" Antitina asked hesitantly.
Brando shook his head, he had made up his mind - things were developing beyond his imagination, and he must seize the time to save everything. He put his hand into his arms, and when he stretched it out, he already held a crystal for lighting.
The crystal was ignited in an instant——
Soft light bloomed from the young man's hands.
"Lord?" Antitina's eyes widened.
"Brando!" Roman was also stunned.
Everyone was attracted by the sudden light in the darkness, which seemed to be a little fluorescence in the endless darkness. This fluorescence expanded rapidly, but was then thrown out.
The fluorescence drew an arc in the darkness.
The arc passed through a forest and then landed in dense bushes, but even after layers of cover, the light from the bushes still illuminated a small area nearby.
Three humans wearing black robes with hoods covering their faces stood there,
They obviously didn't expect that they had been exposed, and were stunned subconsciously; but when Antitina couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, each of the three people stood next to them, almost half a person tall, with blue-gray skin, and long hair. A terrifying creature with a pair of sheep's hooves and long horns and tusks.
The ankles of these creatures are connected to the wrists of the Black Fire Cultists by a black chain, and their bodies are covered with strange black patterns; those are the restraining powers from contracts and spells - there is no doubt that this is Jorgendigang The underground visitor - the lowest form of contract demon.
"The high-level contracted demon is in the opposite direction!" the Lubis mercenary behind immediately shouted.
As the most legendary group of mercenaries, they certainly have dealt with one of the most evil forces in the world. They are already familiar with the habits of these guys.
But Brando is more familiar with them.
As soon as he saw the three men, he had already raised his hands in the other direction. The silver ring on his index finger sparkled, and Brando immediately chanted the spell: "Oss!"
The air flow exploded forward within the visible range like lines. With a loud bang, the surrounding pine trees broke and fell to the outside in an instant, and those in the way were all turned into powder.
After the hurricane passes, the woods no longer exist, creating an open corridor in front of Brando.
The mercenaries all had a look of awe in their eyes.
The noble daughter was so frightened that she screamed, covered her ears and squatted down. There was only one voice echoing in her heart at this moment, he was a wizard! He is a wizard! This young knight turned out to be a wizard!
Roman was quite used to it. The business lady tilted her head, and sure enough, she saw Brando flashing, his whole figure blurring, and then disappearing from the place in an instant——
Only the Lubis mercenaries could see clearly that at that moment Brando burst out at least ten times faster, as if a continuous shadow was pulled out on the passage in an instant, and then disappeared.
"That's the Sun Knight's charge stunt!" a mercenary said immediately from behind.
But they are not those undisciplined third-rate mercenaries. As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately pulled out a long sword and walked out of the mercenaries. He pointed the sword in the direction where the lighting crystal fell and ordered: "Now I, deputy captain Rocco, will take over the command. Now I order you, Immediately launch an attack on those Blackfire cultists——"
"As commanded."
Eleven figures immediately rushed towards the three Black Fire cultists who were in a daze.
On the other side, the charging skill allowed Brando to catch the spiked chain lord in an instant. This crimson demon was standing with its owner, a man wearing a red-edged robe.
The Thorn Chain Lord is a bit like a large red red contracted demon, but this thing has a pair of huge flesh wings and two pairs of long horns, and its image is more similar to the classic images of demons in medieval legends.
Besides, it's probably just a bunch of barbed iron chains surrounding it.
However, this guy was obviously seriously injured at the moment. Not only was he missing an arm, but he was also missing a wing. Brando is not surprised by this. Although the Wind Queen Ring itself is only a 10OZ piece of equipment, its power is definitely a killer for non-defense creatures below level 30, otherwise it would not be called As a small artifact, the only criticism it had in the past was that the CD was too long.
As for demon-type creatures, except for a kind of blade demon among the mid-level arms, there really is no defensive type.
Brando glanced at the man again and narrowed his eyes slightly: "A senior member of the Black Fire Cult."
His figure turned in mid-air, and there was a long sword in his hand. At this moment, unlike when Buga fought, he did not dare to hold back at all. Although the high-level Black Fire Cultist was only level 21, the Thorn Chain Lord next to him was a genuine level 29 demon.
"The White Crow Sword!"
Brando's sword moved from top to bottom, and the power burst started immediately, and a wind blade bloomed from the sword. The senior Black Fire cultist was still checking the injuries of his 'contracted demon'. He didn't expect that the other party would come so quickly. As soon as he raised his head, the transparent ripples caused by the long sword had already passed through his chest - —
Brando is no longer the frail young man he was a month ago. A level 21 character was about the same as a BOSS to him a month ago, but at this moment, the Black Fire cultist is completely unable to withstand his full blow. .
The other party screamed and immediately flew out with a bloody arrow.
According to the rules of the past games, once the signer of the contract dies, the devil itself will regain freedom; but the backlash of the power of the contract will plunge this bloodthirsty creature into irrational madness. Now Bu This is obviously the situation Lando has to face.
He just landed, and when he lowered his head, an iron rope had already swept past his back.
"Hiss..." Brando felt a burning pain in his back, "The movement was at least 20% faster, in a frenzied state, it seems that the cultist has died." This idea flashed through his mind, and at the same time he understood A layer of skin must have been removed from his back, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Despite the scolding, Brando immediately grabbed the spiked iron chain with his backhand. Regardless of the heartbreaking pain in his hand, the man had already flown directly towards the opponent with the force of the devil's pull.
Although the Thorn Chain Lord is a high-level species among contract demons, among Qiao Gendigang's demons, he is an 'artificial' low-level existence. Without a complete soul, he lacks intelligence - not to mention that he has fallen into madness at this moment. It obviously didn't expect that its action of pulling back the iron rope would attract a murderous god.
Brando just used the opponent's strength to pass the sword forward, and already sent the iron sword into the opponent's eye socket. His movements were extremely skillful, as if he had practiced this movement hundreds of times.
In fact, he has practiced this action hundreds of times, but that was only in the game.
The Thorn Chain Lord, whose eyes were severely injured, immediately raised his head and howled miserably, and a low roar echoed through the forest for a while——
The young man frowned and landed lightly on the opponent's shoulder. He immediately turned his sword upside down and swiped it along the neck of the giant beast.
Blue blood arrows sprayed out, and the howling of the high-level contract demon suddenly stopped and turned into a gurgling sound of air leakage. It struggled and finally fell to the ground.
Brando breathed a sigh of relief. He recycled the experience first, without looking to see if it was dropped - the Black Fire Cultists were notoriously poor, so he was unwilling to deal with these guys - he raised his head, and sure enough he saw that his subordinates had successfully Put it on other Blackfire cultists.
But that didn't mean it was over, because he had noticed a commotion in the forest in the distance.
Whether it is in the direction of the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group's camp or in the opposite direction.
"Damn it." He cursed secretly, and at the same time gave an order to his summon in his mind: "Get ready to retreat, take those two guys to move."
Then he lowered his head and looked at the huge, red monster on the ground.
It was dying, but apparently not completely dead. Demons are famous for their vitality and tenacity in the game. They, along with undead and plant-based monsters, are known as the three most hated monsters by players. Thinking of this, Brando suddenly felt that he was not ordinary:
He suddenly remembered what he had encountered since coming to this world——
The skeleton, the golden magic tree, and these demons. It seems that he has encountered all the 'big three', not to mention that his main enemy is Madara, who is obviously a group of undead skeletons.
Could this be a joke played on him by Martha in heaven?
He couldn't help but think mockingly to himself.
But at this moment, several rows of small, green text were suddenly projected on Brando's retina:
"The target creature's contract has been annulled."
"The target creature is in an extremely weak state—"
"Conditions met."
"Sign a contract with me?"
"whether."
Brando was stunned for a moment when he looked at these rows of prompts, then couldn't help but shiver, and then shook his head decisively.
Absolutely not!
…
When Reddy and his companions were thrown to the ground, the white-haired young man raised his head with his usual unruly look and glared at everyone present. But when he saw that it was Brando and his group, his pupils shrank slightly, and then he struggled to stand up.
However, 'Tiger Bird' was holding his shoulders with one hand and pressing his neck with the other. The oppressive force forced him to bend his body downward - but he still looked up and stared at Bran fiercely with a pair of silver-gray eyes. many.
Like an immature wolf.
He struggled and growled: "As expected, it's you. I knew you didn't have good intentions - ugh, cough!"
But Brando had no time to talk nonsense with him. Without saying a word, he punched the guy in the face with such force that Reddy couldn't help turning his head back and coughing out a mouthful of blood.
Antitina couldn't help but take a gentle breath.
Roman also blinked, thinking that Brando did lose his temper sometimes - just like he did to Freya last time, but that time he was still in the Golden Tree Canyon.
But she looked at Brando's hands more with concern. The young man's hands were covered with blood, which was the injury caused by his previous battle with the Thorn Chain Lord. The business lady was a little worried, but she wanted to go over and help Brando bandage, but the young man wouldn't let her touch it at all——
The Chain Lord's iron spikes are poisonous. Brando knew that he had a high physique and had no problem resisting this toxin, but little Roman was different. He was not willing to accidentally label the business lady's attributes as a 'yandere'.
You must know that the poison of the Thorn Chain Lord can damage the body.
On the other side, the white-haired young man immediately turned back, with blood on the corner of his mouth, and stared at Brando with a vicious look. Brando also looked at him. The battle just now attracted the attention of both parties. The forest not far away was now in chaos. If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, they would have been stuck there and couldn't get out by now. .
But even now, they are not necessarily safe.
That's why Brando is so unhappy.
"Your enemy is not us. Please don't move if you don't want to die." He looked at this guy and replied coldly.
Reddy gritted his teeth, and of course he realized now that Brando and his group could not be the same as those guys in the forest. However, he was extremely resentful in his heart, thinking that this bastard was avenging his personal revenge, so he punched him before explaining - it was clearly to teach him a lesson.
But even so, he still subconsciously thought that Brando was just an alarmist. Others don't know, but he knows some inside information - the Gray Wolf mercenary group is far from just a mercenary group. Perhaps others were a little uneasy about the possibility of going to war with the 'Solitaire' mercenary group, but he was not worried at all.
I just didn't expect those bastards to dare to strike first.
Reddy internally spit, thinking what a fuss this country bumpkin was making. Thinking of this, he raised his head and glanced at Brando contemptuously.
Brando went to see another person, and then he was startled because it was a girl.
Her eyes were closed, and her long black hair framed a face that looked a little pale in the moonlight; but to Brando's surprise, even under such circumstances, the girl did not look panicked at all.
who is she?
This thought flashed through his mind. But at this time, 'Tiger Bird' was already asking from the side: "It's the Black Fire Cultist. Sir, what should we do next?"
"Blackfire Cultist?" Reidy's heart skipped a beat.
Brando glanced at the mountains to the north, lowered his eyelids and replied, "Let's go east."
The white-haired young man couldn't help but chuckle. He came from a noble military family and had some experience. I thought that since the members of the 'Solitaire' mercenary group were close to this location, it meant that the sentry post arranged by the group leader on the hilltop in the north had been removed; in this way, the south side was obviously safer.
This guy was obviously a layman, but he still wanted to act like he knew what he was doing. He chuckled inwardly, and it was hard for the experienced mercenaries under him. Reddy obviously regarded Brando as a second-generation ancestor, but when the 'Tiger Sparrow' made a move before, he was captured without even having time to react, which obviously left a very deep impression on the young man.
He was just laughing, but Reddy was worried about the 'Black Fire Cultists'. He glanced secretly at the mercenary standing next to Brando, thinking that this guy wouldn't lie.
It may not be realistic for him to get words from his colleagues. He has to find an opportunity to get something out of the mouth of this second generation ancestor. Thinking of this, he glanced at Brando again.
But obviously different from Reddy's view, 'Tiger Bird' seemed a little interested after listening to Brando's words: "Sir, have you dealt with the Black Fire Cultist?"
"Absolutely." Brando replied casually: "I have dealt with the upper-level priests of the Black Fire Cult in the northern mountainous area before." He added in his heart, "In the game-"
"Oh?" "Tiger Bird"'s eyes lit up: "Higher-level priest group?"
"Ha...ahem...haha, why didn't you say that you have met the Twelve Patriarchs of the 'Treemen'?" Upon hearing this, Reddy couldn't help but sneer: "The priests of the Black Fire Cult are at least silver or above. Strength; if I remember correctly, their upper-level priests, even Eruin's guards, dare not easily defeat them. In what army can this gentleman defeat them?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Brando with contempt: "You have to make a draft when you are bragging. It's really funny. Also, if you want to go south, let me go. I don't want to die with you."
This guy is really smelly and hard.
After listening to this guy's sarcasm, even though Brando couldn't help but laugh in anger, he thought that not only had I met one of the twelve patriarchs, but I had also killed one, and I'm afraid you wouldn't believe it if I told him. What's more, the Twelve Patriarchs are nothing. When he was at his peak, he was at the level of a Divine Knight. To put it simply, there were only one or two people in the huge organization of the Tree Shepherds and the All-Union Association who could rival him.
After all, no matter what the game is, players will only get stronger and stronger.
But Brando was not in the mood to explain this to this guy. He simply smiled at Reddy with his white teeth and asked with a dangerous look on his face: "It seems you don't know your position very well?"
Reddy choked and then remembered that there was no room for him to speak now, no matter whether the hateful-looking guy in front of him was fake or not. He snorted coldly and simply stopped answering.
But Brando didn't mind him being mute. He turned around and asked, "Who are you?" This time he was looking at the girl over there.
Reddy glanced here, then turned his head to one side.
"My name is Yura, Mr. Knight." The girl said herself.
"You know I'm not a businessman?" Brando was stunned.
"I know more. I know that our mercenary group is in danger now, and sir, you can help us, right?" The girl nodded to acknowledge it, and then continued to ask.
"Yura?" This time it was the white-haired young man's turn to be surprised: "They are just..."
"Who's on the other side?" Yura asked.
Brando became really curious this time. He couldn't help but look at the other person again: "How do you know?"
