Mercenaries and Adventurers

Chapter 345, Surrounding the lumberyard (3)

Seeing that the battle here was under control, Kil did not intervene. He surrounded the place from the outside with his horse and ran forward to find the heir to the baron.

Let the blood-licking grass trot for a while, and Kil also stabbed to death the three parasitic monsters he encountered that had escaped from the monster army. Soon, he arrived at another battlefield that was moving and fighting in front.

In the wide and gentle fields outside the lumberyard, the neighing sounds of humans and horses resounded here, and the parasitic monsters that had taken over human bodies also neighed louder than wild beasts.

I don’t know how the parasitic human body can make such inhuman sounds.

Three caravans carrying people were galloping quickly, carrying the heir to the baron, five elite soldiers of the Sars family, and four priests of the Church of Saturn. They were fighting bravely, with weapons waving, Different battle roars came out of their mouths.

The heir to the baron kept shouting words such as "For the honor of the Sasse family" while the heavy steel ax in his hand was slashing left and right, cutting off the vine tentacles of the parasitic monsters approaching the carriage he was riding in.

At the same time, he himself did not just stand in the position of the driver and fight, because the cargo box of his carriage was empty, so there would always be cunning parasitic monsters who saw the right opportunity and accelerated from behind the carriage to jump into the cargo box. At this time, the heir to the Baron, Bel-Sass, had to climb into the cargo box behind him and deal with the monster neatly.

The carriage the soldiers were riding in was regarded as a focus of the attack by the parasitic monsters at this time. Although these elite soldiers of the Sars family were well equipped, each of them wore expensive iron armor and helmets and held sharp axes, but compared to others present, , they are still ordinary people, they can be said to be the weakest group.

A dozen parasitic monsters didn't care that the soldiers were still running and galloping in the carriage. They surrounded and jumped from all directions. Some pounced on the packhorse pulling the carriage, and some held wooden sticks broken from unknown places and roared towards them. Stab it in the middle of the wheel. Others were holding the edge of the truck with one hand, and the other hand gave up the human wrist and palm, and a large number of plant vines sprouted directly, and they were used as whips or flails of flesh and blood to throw at the human soldiers inside the truck.

Amidst the inhuman roars of the monsters, several soldiers fighting on the Chamber of Commerce's carriage also roared to fight. They knew that Master Bell couldn't catch up at this time, so they had to rely on themselves amidst the siege and attack by the monsters.

"Eat my axe!"

At the rear of the carriage, one of the tallest and strongest elite soldiers roared and swept his ax wildly. However, this sweep of the ax was close to the wall of the carriage at the rear of the carriage, not only cutting off the twisted vine roots that were whipped at random. He even chopped off the fingers of the parasitic monster that was holding the rear wall panel of the car without missing a beat.

Plant juices and dark red human blood splashed everywhere, and the severed fingers rolled down inside the carriage. As the carriage galloped, they rolled around, rolled around, and were then wrapped up by the soldiers. The iron boots trample them to pieces.

Immediately, the two or three monsters at the back of the car fell down unwillingly and were left far behind the speeding carriage.

Except for a soldier roaring in battle at the rear of the carriage, although there were rapidly rotating wheels on both sides of the carriage to help block the parasitic monster, the parasitic monster, which was not afraid of pain and did not hesitate to injure the human body, still jumped onto the carriage from here.

Although most of the parasitic monsters who did this were caught in the wheels and thrown away, one after another, the monsters still managed to grab hold of this place and climb up.

Therefore, the two soldiers here need to keep pushing the parasitic monsters that climb up out of the car. Due to the tension in the place, the two men had to fight back to back, holding an ax in one hand and a short sword and dagger in the other.

When swinging the ax, he couldn't open and close it like the tall guy behind him. He could only hold the ax high and then slam it down hard. Or first stab the dagger in the off-hand of the left hand, and then add a slash with the ax in the right hand.

In this way, he drove away the parasitic monsters that climbed onto the carriage from both sides.

At the front of the carriage, the driver screamed in horror, because from time to time a parasitic monster would look at the direction and distance and jump from the front side, trying to knock him off the carriage.

Fortunately, there was an elite soldier protecting the driver next to him. Whenever a monster approached, the soldier would hold a shield in one hand and an ax in the other to knock the attacking monster off the carriage.

Since it was not a traditional contact battle on the ground, but a simple confrontation while the carriage was moving, it was difficult for the soldiers to completely kill these parasitic monsters. Therefore, despite the fact that they knocked the parasitic monster off the carriage every time and chopped off the monster's body and limbs, due to the special ability of the flesh demon parasitic monster, these monsters often got up quickly after being knocked down.

In addition, many plant roots protruding from the inside of the body will appear on the wounds of the human body controlled by the parasite, helping to repair the damage to the body.

Or simply use swinging root tentacles to replace the original missing places.

When fighting again, it becomes more difficult.

Among the five soldiers, the last one was not on the carriage, but was riding on the two pack horses pulling it in front of the carriage. This soldier is carefully lying on the leather rope here to resist the parasitic monster that wants to attack the horses pulling the cart.

However, even though the soldier was very careful, the limited leather rope between the two horses still made it difficult for the soldier to maintain balance, let alone protect the two pack horses.

"Be careful! Another one is coming!"

The soldier standing in the driver's position still had the energy to observe the front during the battle. After discovering that another parasitic monster was targeting the horse, he quickly alerted his companions in front.

"I saw it! I saw it! Don't rush me-"

The soldier who was responsible for protecting the horses pulling the carriage yelled in dissatisfaction, but there was nothing he could do. At this time, half of his legs were hanging in the air and he could not use any force, and the other half of his legs had to be curled up and put on the leather rope connecting the horses. And he had to put his two hands diagonally on the back of a horse to try to keep himself balanced.

But even so, there is no free hand to hold the weapon.

As if he saw the difficulty of this human soldier, the parasitic monster running not far in front of the carriage shouted loudly and ran forward, facing the front of the carriage.

The targets were two strong galloping packhorses pulling the cart.

Although if you hit it straight like this, there is a high probability of being knocked over by the horses and trampled by the carriage, but this parasitic monster didn't care about that at all. After calculating the distance, it accelerated directly and rushed over, and hugged it all at once. The neck of a draft horse.

"Damn thing!"

Next to him, the soldier cursed and supported his body with his right hand to keep steady. Then he took a one-handed ax from his left waist with his left hand, leaned forward and slashed at the parasitic monster.

But the parasitic monster laughed, swung its body and kicked it over.

With a pop, the ax chopped off half of the monster's parasitic human body, but the parasite's laughter became even louder.

"Still laughing!!!"

The soldier tried his best to lean over while staying calm, and he struck again with an axe, but the monster still kicked him.

But this time it was different. The parasitic human body that had most of its feet cut off quickly spread out many thick vine tentacles from the broken part of the feet. This thing was quite strong. The soldier chopped it up with an ax and only chopped it. Half of the tentacles were broken, and more tentacles grabbed the side of the soldier's ax in reverse and fixed it.

As the parasitic monster swung its legs and feet, the ax in the soldier's hand was out of control in two clicks.

After all, the strength of the hand holding the ax handle is simply not comparable to the strength of the human leg.

"Damn-"

The soldier did not expect this to happen and accidentally lost his weapon with one move. He wanted to take the weapon back again, but he didn't expect that the soles of the parasitic monster's feet were used as palms. Those weird and disgusting vine tentacles rolled back onto the handle of the axe. After holding the axe, he immediately slashed it out.

"Lulu Lu——"

The ax hit the packhorse's back. Although the wound was not serious, it still affected the packhorse's running speed.

The carriage slowed down.

"Kill that guy quickly! Don't let him hurt the horse pulling the cart!"

The soldier in the driver's position roared angrily.

"I know! Don't rush me!"

The soldier between the two horses gritted his teeth and said. The next moment, he saw the soldier take a deep breath, then use his hands and feet to jump up and jump straight onto the injured pack horse.

The parasitic monster that grabbed the packhorse's neck swung its leg, and the ax cut into the soldier's side with a fierce clash of metals.

Sparks and blood splashed from the collision of metal, and after the soldier groaned, he tightly hugged the leg of the parasitic monster, and swung his body, using his own body weight behind the armor, to pull the parasitic monster. Falling off the carriage together.

"Blow!!!"

The soldier in the driver's position shouted and turned quickly to the back of the carriage to see the situation of his companions.

The soldier and the parasitic monster fell off the carriage together. The next moment, the two guys were stepped on by the hooves of a galloping horse, and then ran over by the iron-clad wheels on the side of the carriage.

After the carriage jolted twice, the soldiers saw that the soldier named Bullo and the parasitic monster were pressed into the soft ground by the carriage.

However, it seemed that the ground in this area was too soft. Even if they were stepped on by horse hooves and wheels, the two guys did not die, but most of their bodies were embedded in the soft ground, unable to move.

The soldier passed out, but tightly hugged one of the parasitic monster's legs.

The parasitic monster had one of its arms crushed off, and the other arm was struggling to be pulled out of the ground, and it hit the unconscious soldier's head heavily.

boom.

The parasitic monster was very powerful. Even if the soldier was wearing an iron helmet, the blow shocked the unconscious soldier and blood oozed from his mouth and nose.

At this time, the monster's arm was raised again.

-

Woo-hoo!

Before the monster's fist fell, a spear suddenly flew out and penetrated the middle of the parasitic monster's arm. Then the gun blade was like a heavy axe. During the penetration process, the entire arm of the parasitic monster was cut into two pieces.

Then the spear was inserted into the ground again, going deep into the ground.

The parasitic monster turned to look in the direction where the spear was thrown, and then screamed.

A human was riding towards it on horseback.

The deadly murderous intention is shrouding it, making it terrified.

The parasitic monster wanted to escape, but most of its body was embedded in the soft ground. Although it was not impossible to get out, it would take a while, and I was afraid it would be too late.

Not only that, one of its legs was held tightly in the arms of the unconscious human soldier, unable to move.

It swung its right arm, but when it fell from the carriage, it was trampled by the packhorse pulling the carriage and broke its arm bone. Normally this would not be a problem, as long as the vines inside the arm could replace the bones, but not only was it crushed to pieces It was the arm bone of the parasitic body, and its internal vine tissue on this part of the arm was also trampled to pieces.

With no other choice, this parasitic monster had no choice but to let new vine tentacles extend from the broken part of its left arm and use it as a last resort weapon to fight.

-

Kil rode up and rushed up quickly. He threw his spear and cut off the monster's arm. So when he got closer, he jumped off the horse and landed with a bang. With the help of inertia, the combat boots pulled out two deceleration traces more than one meter long on the soft ground. Just in time, when he stopped, he was right in front of the soldier and the parasitic monster.

One meter long vine tentacles surged out of the monster's broken arm and swung it as a weapon, but Kil held it with one hand in his left hand and didn't care about the vine tentacles in his hands. They wrapped around his arm and leaned over directly. He punched out with his right fist, blowing out the entire face of the parasitic monster.

Then, while the monster briefly lost its ability to observe the parasitic human body, he tore open the dirty and smelly clothes worn by the opponent and found the core of the monster - the parasitic human face - located on the left waist of the body.

The thing suddenly opened its closed eyes, and let out a scream from its small mouth. But at the next moment, Keir reached out with his right hand, and forcefully broke open the opponent's body without any explanation, and removed the core of the monster that controlled the long-dead human body. , the whole thing was pulled out.

The vines wrapped around his left hand immediately lost their strength and relaxed. Without looking, Keir squeezed the parasitic man's face into pieces with his right hand while still screaming and struggling.

The pleasant plant fragrance spread out immediately, and along with the earthy smell brought out by the rolling ground, Kil exhaled.

Then he carefully dragged out the soldier who was embedded in the ground next to him.

A quick glance revealed that the soldier was not only unconscious, he was not even breathing.

This surprised Kil, who quickly took off the opponent's slightly deformed helmet, revealing a young face that was barely a few years older than Kil at the moment.

The opponent's face was covered with dirt, which seemed to have been stained when he was pressed into the ground, and there was a lot of blood oozing from his mouth and nose. But fortunately, Kil took out a piece of linen cloth for wiping the sword, and after wiping the opponent's mouth and nose, he found that the soldier was still breathing, but it was quite weak.

But as soon as he laid the soldier flat on the ground, the soldier's breathing immediately started to stop.

Kil patted his head and untied the opponent's armor the next moment, so that the armor on the opponent no longer hindered breathing. Normally, strong soldiers would not be hindered by the weight of their armor, but if they were unconscious and injured, that would not be possible.

Only then did Kil realize that compared to the monster's heavy blow to the soldier's head just now, the soldier's real danger was the waist where the ax cut through the armor and injured him.

"Isn't this his own axe?"

Kil was a little surprised, how did the soldier's weapon get into the hands of the monster? Well, no, it was on the sole of the monster's foot, and it seriously injured him.

However, the wound was very deep, and when Keir was tossing him, blood continued to flow from the wound.

There was no other way. Kil looked up and saw that not only the carriage of the baron heir had disappeared, but the carriages of soldiers and priests were also chasing the group of parasitic monsters. They would have to wait a while before they would accompany the parasitic monsters. Go around the lumber camp and back again.

There was nothing Kiel could do to treat the injury. He could only wrap the opponent's clothes tightly around the wound on his waist to prevent him from bleeding to death. As for wartime treatment, we can only leave it to the priests to find a solution.

-

Kiel waited anxiously for a while. He didn't want to put the unconscious and injured soldier on horseback to actively search for the main force. However, the unconscious and injured soldier was in bad condition. His weak breathing became unsustainable even if he moved a little. .

There was no other way, so Kil had no choice but to put it on the ground, call back the blood-licking grass and wait for others to come back here.

It didn't take him long before the neighing and shouting of men and horses could be heard intermittently from the other side of the logging camp. The monsters' voices became a little quieter. Apparently, in the process of moving and fighting just now, some of them The parasitic monster was dealt with.

Keir's sharp eyesight first noticed that the situation was slightly different. Unlike before, the baron heir was now standing in a carriage, fighting a parasitic monster holding a sword alone.

The two guys were in the small carriage box, fighting back and forth, but the battle was not fierce. While fighting, they were still commanding their men.

Kiel saw that unlike before they were scattered, the carriages were now reunited, fighting with all the remaining parasitic monsters while moving.

The vehicles were either following each other or driving side by side. Soldiers and priests came to other vehicles, and more parasitic monsters climbed aboard, using the vine tentacles extending from their hands and feet to wander around and jump on one vehicle. between carriages.

"What are you doing? Are you all juggling?"

Kil said speechlessly.

However, he also saw that the situation of everyone in the convoy was not very good at this time. The main reason was that the two priests of the Church of the God of the Dead did not contribute much. The other priests and soldiers were able to deal with the parasitic monsters in small numbers. Facing dozens of It would be impossible to deal with the situation when parasitic monsters swarmed him.

The two priests of the Church of the Sun God were tied up and couldn't use the hot priest's staff. They threw it out for fear of igniting the lumberyard next to them. In close combat, they were afraid of igniting the carriage they were riding in.

The priests of the Church of the God of Wealth and the priests of the God of Agriculture were now scattered and fighting together with the soldiers. Although the situation was not good, it seemed that it would be difficult for the monsters to capture them.

Whenever a parasitic monster breaks through the soldiers' blockade and climbs onto the carriage, the priest of the God of Wealth Church will pop out a glowing coin, knocking it away and falling off the carriage.

The soldiers who fight against the priests of the God of Agriculture will constantly receive crop seeds from the priests to restore their physical strength. They do not need to eat them. When they touch their bodies, the power of the God of Agriculture will be blessed by them. If not for the fact that none of the soldiers believe in the God of Agriculture. Yes, these powers of the God of Agriculture might be able to play more roles at this time.
