Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 196 Desperate

There are not enough people in the hunting group in Reys' long house, and they are not moving fast.

It took ten days to arrive at the [Dawn City Central Prison].

From a distance, although part of it collapsed, it can still be distinguished that it is a peculiar building with a five-pointed star. In appearance, it looks like a huge pentagram.

"Commander, the cursed space is found in the ruins over there. The coverage area is very large, the energy fluctuation is S+, and the space is stable."

"Seeing that the building should be a prison, it is initially determined to be a large-scale compound cursed space, and high-level professionals are requested to cooperate in investigation."

"It has been proved that the space entrance is temporarily inaccessible, and special opening conditions are required."

"."

Because of the fierce fighting for days, the original team of four or five hundred people was damaged, leaving fifty or sixty people with wounded remnants.

The vanguard of the Crusaders were almost wiped out, and the elites brought by Reina suffered heavy losses. There are more than ten second-order professionals in the team, and there are six remaining.

Even the three members of the supervising team who never participated in the war have died in succession, and the inner city military has sent new ones to replenish.

No one can evacuate until the mission is completed.

Looking at the space whirlpool of black steam on the prison ruins in the distance, everyone's faces were filled with despair.

They had never seen such a large space entrance before.

The only good news is that within a certain range of the cursed space, there are usually no aberrations and abyss monsters.

Soon,

The old man in light rune armor led the exploration team back.

The old man is naturally the only Tier 3 professional in the team, butler Anthony.

Due to the shortage of manpower, the second- and third-order professionals had to personally lead the team to explore dangerous routes to reduce casualties.

Anthony negotiated the investigation situation with the supervising team,

Those guys, as usual, reported the information to their superiors using military communicators.

The team camped in place.

Because there were not many surviving people, the team chose a sturdy building that was easy to defend, and built a circular camp with robotic arm equipment and armor.

Now hearing the order to set up camp, everyone began to take out the marching tents from their backpacks and set up.

The old housekeeper Anthony found Reina who was setting up a tent.

Her personal maid was also killed in the battle three days ago. The eldest lady doesn't need anyone to serve now, she is doing everything by herself.

Anthony reported in a heavy tone: "Miss, the entrance to the cursed space is temporarily inaccessible. It should be a space that requires special trigger conditions to enter. Marjorie's team is trying to crack the entry method."

"understood."

When Reina heard this, her expression was calm, and her tent-building work did not stop because of the news.

Anthony looked at the changes in his young lady, and his eyes flashed with relief, but then he also expressed his concerns: "Miss. The preliminary judgment is a 'T-class' space. This time, we may not be able to pass."

"Um."

Hearing this, Reina paused for a moment.

But she seemed to be mentally prepared. Her tone was firm and indifferent, and she said, "If it's really T-level, it's meaningless to test in batches. After finding the way to enter, I will personally participate in this exploration this time."

"This"

Anthony gave her a complicated look, and didn't say much, "Yes, miss."

They are very clear,

No one can defy the orders of the Duke's Palace, and there is no escape.

From the beginning of the hunting, they have only two results.

either complete the task,

Or destroy.

If you do not continue to explore, even if you escape, you will definitely not survive.

At that time, because of the failure to complete the task, the entire family of Old Lingtun will definitely be implicated.

From the moment Reina set off, she was ready to be completely wiped out.

This moment will come sooner or later.

When Reina heard the news, she did not forget to console the loyal old housekeeper, "Grandpa Anthony, the situation may not be so bad."

"Hey"

Anthony sighed slightly, turned around and left without saying anything.

But at this time, Reina thought of something, and turned her head to look at the lonely Mr. Zorro who had set up a tent in the corner.

Thinking about it, she walked over and said hello: "Mr. Zorro."

"Zorro" responded, "What's wrong, Miss Reina?"

The full-face gas mask on his face is very rough, and there are complex mechanical modifications, and the appearance is not clear at all. Through the canister, his voice was hoarse.

"Thank you for taking care of me along the way."

Reina bowed to Enzo, she knew very well that Zoro took great care of her along the way.

Otherwise, in the battle with the Tier 3 [Three-Headed Human Giant Python] a few days ago, she would be severely injured if she didn't die. At that time, Butler Anthony was restrained by the monster, and all his personal guards were killed in battle. If it weren't for this Mr. Zorro, she would have been hit by the corrosive gas sprayed by the monster.

Sure enough, the aunt said that he was very powerful, and he was really powerful.

After bowing, Reina continued: "Mr. Zorro, what I want to tell you is that after the cursed space has been explored and the method of entry is clear, I will lead all the people in. You are not a contract member of our family, so there is no need to be with us. ."

"No, Miss Reina, you don't need to be so polite."

Zoro shook his head, his tone sounded not as heavy as Reina, "After all, Qianjo-san asked me to take good care of you."

"You've done enough, thank you very much."

Reina sincerely thanked again and told the truth again, "It may be a 'T-class' space, you don't need to die with me."

Hearing this, Zorro shook his head and seemed to be laughing, "No, what I want to say is that even if I want to go, I can't go."

After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Besides, I didn't plan to leave."

"???"

When Reina heard this, she became suspicious.

She just wanted to say something, but at this moment, a hurried report came from the communicator.

"Miss, there is a large group of people on the left of us who are moving towards us quickly to see the flag. They are from the Clark family!"

"Miss, there is also a group of people on our right side, they are from the Oliver family!"

With that said, the entire camp immediately became tense.

The ruins of dawn are already huge, but dozens of teams are also reclaiming wasteland at the same time. In fact, each team is not far apart.

The draw for Lena's team was No. 16, No. 15 was the Oliver Family, and No. 17 was the Clark Family.

Although there were fog and ruins covering them, no one could be seen, but from the sound of gunfire and the movement of the battle, we could tell that several teams were not far from each other.

It's like a divided cake. The closer you get to the core city, the closer the distance between each team will be.

In fact, a few days ago, Reina and the others discovered the movement of the two teams.

Those families recruited enough people that they could be divided into several waves to open up wasteland, and the progress was very fast.

The hunting team is in front, and the home team of the young masters and young ladies is in the back.

Much easier than their team.

A few minutes ago, in the Oliver family’s team several kilometers away from Reina’s team.

Young Master Dan Ze is enjoying his afternoon coffee leisurely in the tent.

Compared with the tragic battle on the front line, although they also suffered some small-scale monster attacks here, it was irrelevant.

After all, there is also the vice-chairman of the Wild Hunting Union, the well-known Tier 3 professional "King of Wind and Thunder Sword" Nero Redgrave.

Since being attacked by Su Lun last time, Dan Ze has never dared to get too far from this third-order professional.

He and the bearded swordsman chatted while drinking coffee and playing chess on a black and white checkered board.

Chatting and chatting, and talking about the attack a few days ago.

"Mr. Nero, what do you think of the strength of that SS wanted criminal Su Lun?"

"Hard to say"

"Hard to say?"

"I deliberately observed the sneak attack before, and the real strength shown by Su Lun is only ordinary second-order level. But his eight-armed spider spear's displacement ability in the ruins is very excellent, even if I want to catch it. easy."

"Just to be able to run."

"It's not that simple. Now that it is confirmed that the guy has a relationship with the person from the reactionary organization, it should not be underestimated. Besides, you didn't realize that the guy hasn't shown his second-order advanced ability yet? I doubt that the information is true to him. The power gap is huge.”

"There are only a few advanced options for a puppet master. The guy is not too old, but he is so proficient in puppet manipulation skills. The eighth level of professional ability is to choose to advance in the direction of 'puppet manipulation skills'. After all, you also know , puppet manipulation requires a lot of time and energy practice. It is impossible to awaken other unrelated abilities."

"Well, this analysis makes sense."

"In my opinion, Su Lun, the SS wanted criminal, seems to be using the scythe of the forbidden object to make a killing. That guy is really lucky, and he has mastered a secret technique of corpse sacrifice that can avoid the curse of the forbidden object. However, now that I have completely stabilized the second-order realm, and I have mastered this [Steinitz's chessboard], then Su Lun will come again, and I can guarantee that he will come and go."

"Although I think you should be careful, Master Danze. But you have this curse, and with the [Puppet Theater], there is really no reason to lose against any second-tier professional."

Hearing this, Dan Ze had a complacent smile on his face.

The two were chatting, and it happened that at this time, the subordinates came to report.

"Master, there is an order from the Black Tower, let us send someone to help the team in Reis' long room to open a large cursed space."

When the two heard it, their faces were different.

Dan Ze turned his face and asked, "Mr. Nero, are you interested in taking a look?"

"certainly."

Nero squinted slightly and said, "Since Reyes's long house has offended, we must cut the grass and roots. Now the Black Tower has acquiesced in your behavior, Miss Lena and old Anthony must not let them. Leave the ruins alive. Otherwise, there will be no such a good chance next time. Carnegie Reyes has a strong wrist, and he survived the split last time. It's also a big trouble for a sick tiger to decline again."

Dan Ze smiled, "I think so too."

Reina also knew for a long time that the advance team of the Clark family on the left had far surpassed their team's progress in land reclamation, and it has been closely watched.

Now these guys have suddenly changed their line, obviously with bad intentions.

Sure enough, not long after, a group of hundreds of people came out of the fog in the distance.

Looking at the family crest engraved on the equipment, it is impressively the elite team of the Clark family.

The young man in a brand-new hunting suit, led by the Clark family, was naturally Ellie Clark, the eldest young master.

I haven't seen you for half a month,

The young master looked at the dozens of remnants of Reina, and his tone was full of ridicule: "Hey, Miss Reina, it seems that your situation is not very good?"

The visitor was obviously not well-intentioned. Butler Anthony had been protecting Reina for a long time. He looked at the three bodyguards beside Mr. Ellie, his pupils shrank slightly, and he introduced in a low voice: "Miss, be careful. That's the old Lingdon. The three elders, Ice, Thunder, and Earth of the Mysticism Association, are very powerful elemental warlocks. They also have very difficult curses in their hands. Together, the old man is not sure to take advantage of it in a short time."

There are three people around Mr. Eli.

An archer with a blue longbow, a woman in a robe with a thunderweave staff, and a punk strong man with green hair.

Reina raised her eyes and glanced, turned her face to look coldly at the group of people who were constantly approaching in front of her, and responded, "What are you doing here?"

Ellie led the group of people swaggering over and said lazily: "I just received a notification from the top of the Black Tower, saying that you may not be able to handle this high-level cursed space, so I will bring someone over to help you take a look. "

Originally, he didn't need to come in person, but now he heard that it was Reina's team, and this Young Master Ellie was naturally going to get down.

Reina frowned slightly when she heard this. She glanced at the three white-helmed commanders not far away, as if asking something.

The black-faced superintendent leader responded indifferently: "The above order is only to supervise your land reclamation. We will not interfere in the affairs between your families, nor will we care."

After speaking, the three war supervisors also deliberately opened some distance, as if to express their attitude: you fight, don't accidentally hurt us.

I didn't expect these people to be able to mediate. When Reina heard this, she shouted: "Everyone obeys the order. Anyone who approaches the camp will be killed!"

With an order, both sides raised their guns almost at the same time.

"Crack" and "Crack" sounded a dense sound of firearms being loaded.

For a while, the swords were drawn, and there was a tendency to fight when there was a disagreement.

The number of people is nearly ten times the difference, and the Clark family has an absolute advantage.

Mr. Avery seems to be completely unafraid of the guns pointed at him. There are three bodyguards, and the guns can't hurt him at all.

He even motioned for his men to put down their guns.

After all, in this situation, even if the opponent is allowed to shoot first, the Reys family has no chance of winning.

He looked at Reina and continued provocatively: "Yo~ Miss Reina, this is unnecessary. I think we can sit down and have a good talk."

It seems to have been negotiated. The Clark family has just arrived, and Danze, the Oliver family, also walked out with the team.

The young master Dan Ze looked at the two groups of people who were arguing with each other, and said with schadenfreude, "Tsk tsk. It doesn't seem like it was a coincidence when I came?"

Next to him was a girl with heavy makeup who was three-pointed like Reina.

It was Betty Reyce, the second lady of the Reyes family, and the fiancée of Young Master Danze.

This time, he wanted to bring down the long house, and this person also contributed greatly.

She looked at Lena and gloated: "Sister Lena, it's been a long time."

The two teams add up to nearly a thousand people, and they are all enemies.

In this situation, it seems that Reina and the others may not be able to enter the cursed space, and they will be destroyed outside.

Ai Li pressed step by step and said, "Miss Lena, shall we talk now?"

Reina looked at the enemy who was already 50 meters away, and pulled the trigger without fear.

"Bang!"

Gunshots sounded.

The bullet hit Avery's feet, and white smoke was coming out.

Reina held the gun and said calmly, "If you get closer, the next shot will be your head."

Presumably predicting the trajectory of the bullet, Avery's bodyguards didn't lift their eyelids.

Although Eli was frightened, the sneer on his face was even worse.

In a blink of an eye, he looked at the group of guards beside Reina, and said something intriguing: "You don't want to live, don't you think about your subordinates?"

As soon as these words came out, it seemed like some kind of password.

At this moment, the second-order captain named Pritt Keith suddenly led more than a dozen subordinates to open some distance.

Seeing this, the old housekeeper Anthony shouted and asked, "Prit, what are you doing!"

Naplit looked at Reina and said, "Miss Reina, I'm sorry. I paid a lot for the Reyce family, but I don't want to die here."

Obviously, these people were bought off.

Undercover at this time, there is no need to continue to hide.

Whether it is the cursed space in front of him or the predicament here, staying in the team of Reyes' long house seems to be certain to die.

With that said, they were on guard with guns and walked out of the camp they had built.

There were not many people in Reina's team originally, but there were more than ten fewer people, and the defense gap of the camp came out immediately.

The most important thing is the blow to morale. As soon as these people leave, the rest of their eyes are full of resentment and despair.

The old housekeeper Anthony wanted to kill the traitor, but he was surrounded by coveted enemies, so he didn't dare to act rashly.

Reina didn't speak, and didn't change much because the situation got worse.

Her hand holding the gun was still steady and not shaking.

At this time, the ridicule in Ellie's eyes not far away was even greater, and he asked again: "Now, has Miss Reina changed her attention?"

At this moment, the situation of Reyes' long room was already in a desperate situation.

Reina didn't turn her head to look, she pondered for a moment, and said lightly to the remaining guards around her: "If anyone wants to leave now, I won't blame you."

She knew very well that the other party came to destroy Reis' long house.

surrender?

Nothing but humiliation.

After a pause, she said decisively again: "But if you stay, prepare to fight to the death with me!"

Hearing this, the morale that had been depressed just now because of the cadre's rebellion suddenly boiled over.

The guards surrounded Reina, looking like they were about to fight to the death.

"Miss, we're not leaving!"

"Swear to live and die with the family!"

"Yes! I swear to live and die with my family! Fight to the death!"

"."

The crowd was excited, and the momentum of dozens of people was like a raging fire, and they were stunned to compete with the surrounding enemy chambers of nearly a thousand people.

And the old housekeeper An Dong also seemed to have solved some secret technique. Suddenly, horns appeared on the top of his head, his bones crackled, and his body soared into a human-shaped goat with muscles nearly two meters high.

Looking at this group of people, the masters of the Oliver and Clark families on the opposite side frowned. Even the third-order professional "King of Wind and Thunder Sword" Nero was full of dignified eyes.

He looked at the old goat whose aura suddenly exploded, he didn't know what to think of, and he murmured: ""The Devil" Anthony, the champion of the Old Lingdon Fighting Tournament twenty years ago. Tsk tsk, this state, still It's been a long time. "
