Lord of Rot

Chapter 258 The Bewitched Crown (page 12)

After Li Qi's team moved forward for a certain distance, they suddenly saw a body cut in half on the ground.

The bones and flesh were deformed at the part where the waist brake was broken, and the intestines and stomach were even pulled out. It can be seen that he was not dead when he was divided into two halves, and he struggled for a while.

"It should have been the giant crab just now."

They just glanced at the corpses on the ground for a moment and then moved on. The main team of the Monkey Family had not yet met, so I wonder if they had already obtained the treasure.

After walking some distance further, there was a dwarf in front of us.

Li Qi waved and asked the soldiers to carry their muskets and get in half-crouched.

"As long as there is movement, shoot immediately, and then retreat," Li Qi ordered: "The second team will follow and rotate in this way."

Because it was quiet enough, Li Qi's order could be heard by everyone present.

After getting in and walking for a while, I saw a cave going down. It must have been dug. You can see the stone steps that have been polished by the years, and there are still green moss growing on them.

"Hiss, what is this!" A porcupine soldier was startled.

A huge moth was lying on the ground.

There are four spears stuck in its body.

The moth's wings spread out are as big as two sheets.

The darkness did not affect Li Qi's vision. He clearly saw a corpse underneath the moth. Judging from the clothing, it must be that of a pirate. The head was sucked by the moth's mouthparts and was shriveled and deformed.

"Everything on this island has been magnified?" Li Qi mistakenly thought that he had entered the kingdom of giants: "Or is it that after the magic tide returns, many things become magical again?"

Cancer, giant moths, I wonder if there are other big things.

After all, Li Qi had never seen the heyday of magic, just as he couldn't imagine what it would be like for the dragon to exterminate thousands of bipedal flying dragon knights in one breath.

So it's unclear whether these are related to the emergence of the magic tide.

"The more this happens, the harder it is to let the monkey family members get the contents inside."

The team was slowly moving forward when they suddenly heard footsteps.

Because Li Qi's team didn't light any torches, when a few figures holding torches suddenly appeared in the darkness, they were like the scantily clad female service staff on the roadside in Tieshi City. They couldn't even pretend to be invisible.

Without Li Qi's instructions, the soldiers walking in the first row quickly raised their guns.

Bang bang bang!

This is a long, straight corridor. There is no need to aim at all. Just shoot forward. Unless the opponent can fly to the sky and escape, or has steel and iron bones, he cannot ignore the terrifying shooting.

The soldiers in the first row at the front quickly retreated after firing, and the second row set up their guns.

But there was no need for them to fire any more, just the first salvo, and the figure holding the torch fell to the ground.

There were dense footsteps coming from behind. They sounded very heavy, and they must be wearing heavy armor.

"Who?!"

A group of people rushed over and asked angrily.

Li Qi just said indifferently: "Shoot!"

The gunfire was detonated again, and the pungent smell of gunpowder filled the passage.

At the beginning, the Porcupine soldiers were able to aim and fire based on the general position of the fire. When the smoke became thicker and thicker, and the air outlet was behind them, the thick smoke smeared on the faces of Li Qi and others, and their eyes were smoked. Unable to open it, they simply stopped aiming and just fired forward.

Only screams of "Ah" and "Ah" could be heard in the distance.

There was also the sound of bullets hitting the shield.

Except for special teams, few people choose to use pure steel shields. They are too heavy and inconvenient for combat. Carrying more than ten kilograms of iron shields in their hands will drag them to death without fighting.

The hardwood shield with special anti-corrosion and anti-cracking treatment and leather covering are the most classic configurations.

There are also iron-clad shields, such as the porcupine collar.

The person on the opposite side obviously also had these two types of shields. The hardwood shield had strong defensive capabilities when faced with arrows and javelins, but when faced with muskets, the defense seemed a bit pitiful.

The screams became less and less.

The Porcupine soldiers were very calm, because they shot after roughly determining the enemy's location.

Reload with little light and get used to it, then shoot.

He just kept shooting like this and never came into contact with the enemy.

It stopped when even the screams from the other side disappeared.

Li Qi glanced around and made sure that no one was standing, so he waved his hand and asked the two corpses to step forward to hit him.

After confirming that all the enemies were dead, Li Qicai said: "Light the torch!"

One torch after another was lit.

In the spacious underground passage that suddenly lit up, the first thing everyone saw was a pile of corpses and blood that had gathered into puddles.

Dozens of corpses lay on the ground.

Part pirate, part Monkey Family soldier.

Corpses were piled up into a small bunker, blocking the way.

Before the gun, everyone is equal.

internal.

Dryden heard that the silence outside had finally returned, but his heart was lifted.

Who is this person, and what are those terrifying noises about?

And the screams of his own men.

The fear of the unknown made him feel suffocated.

Currently, there are only two extraordinary beings left around, and Jenny.

"What's going on?" Dryden looked at the four-hand mercenary. The mercenary had just rushed out with the team, but he quickly ran back with a strong and pungent smell of blood.

The mercenary grinned in pain: "They used very weird weapons. They were very loud, very fast, and there was almost no gap. People fell down like sickles cutting wheat. If I hadn't escaped quickly, I would have died too." ”

He squeezed hard on his shoulder with his fingers, and took out an iron pill with cooked meat between his two fingers.

His body strength was extremely high, and the bullets did not penetrate his body. He was hit by several bullets in succession, but he was only slightly injured.

One even hit his forehead, but it was blocked by the hard skull. It looked like blood was flowing all over his face, but it was actually not life-threatening.

"Is he from Monkey Island?"

Dryden wondered.

The sound of footsteps came in the distance.

A group of people rushed in and immediately squatted on the ground.

They set up the black iron pipes in their hands and faced Dryden and the others.

The black-haired young man who walked in at the end should be the leader of this group of people.

"Elite soldiers!" Dryden was shocked when he saw the fine armor on the porcupine soldiers.

Such an elite team came from nowhere.

The black iron pipes in their hands should be the strange weapons that harvested the lives of their men.

Dryden took a step forward and said: "Good night, I am Dryden Bill from the Bill family of the monkey leader. I think we can talk. There are pirate treasures here, all of which will be handed over to you. We are also willing to become prisoners. , please give us a chance to pay the ransom."

At the same time, Dryden winked at the two transcendent beings, hoping that they would rush forward at the critical moment. As long as they could tie up the leader, they would be able to leave.
