The Amber Sword

Act 82 The Story of Turbulence and Fish (4)

. "

A clear call came from the forest, accompanied by rapid and messy footsteps, as if there was a group of people approaching quickly from behind. The girl with long light red hair held the hair on the back of her head with one hand, turned her head, brushed her thick eyelashes, and her almost translucent, wine-like eyes reflected a burning ball not far away. The firelight, sparks flying with a crackling sound, and the faint eyes also flickered.

He seemed a little confused.

"From the sound, it sounds like it's Celia and the others. Didn't they go to find Yura and Reddy? Why did they come back? They found them, but they still said they encountered some trouble."

The girl known as Akane raised the ax gun in her hand vigilantly - or called it a halberd. If Brando were here, he would definitely recognize this spear, because in addition to the nearly one-foot-long pitch-black blade, the spindle-shaped ax blade is one of the most eye-catching features of this weapon - the sharp edge. With a light golden edge opening to both sides, it looks particularly beautiful.

Then beautiful things are dangerous.

This standing halberd, called the 'Thunder Spear - Logos', was once one of the most famous drops in the Chablis area. It is a must-have weapon for gun mercenaries, although it is only a level 25 weapon. The price of the war halberd has remained high on several well-known trading websites; for no other reason than the fact that this gun has a 100% chance of attaching the 'Lightning Word' surrounding special effect to the holder when attacking. .

This special effect is derived from the elementalist's spell of the same name, which can add 10 lightning damage to the attacker, which is almost equivalent to increasing the attribute damage by 10% out of thin air. Therefore, a tactic widely circulated among gun mercenaries is to first use the thunder gun to create special effects, and then use the "instant preparation" skill unique to the mercenary profession to instantly switch the main weapon, and then use it with wind element sensing potions, attribute-enhancing crystals and other consumables Props for output.

The difference between the mercenary profession and the warrior profession is that the warrior focuses on skills, the mercenary focuses on combat, and the latter regards weapons as tools)

This is the so-called attribute damage flow.

However, the 'Thunder Spear - Logos' is said to be owned by a ghost knight in the northern forest of Chablis whose body is burning with fiery red soul flames. How it returned to the hands of this girl is an unsolved mystery. If Brando saw it now, he would probably be surprised:

The first 'Thunder Spear - Logos' appeared in the Year of the Swift (377). Before the Year of Prosperity and Summer Leaves (375), the forest north of Chablis was still occupied by lizard bandits. Is not it?

Akane raised her head and saw several people hurriedly running from the forest in her field of vision.

She frowned.

For the girl, the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group has a different meaning. She is an orphan adopted by Cabot, and this group is more like a huge family to her. Every time she fights, it's not for money, but to protect her family.

But apart from fighting, she felt like she didn't know what to do anymore. Silver Moon Demon Wolf

It’s just fighting——

However, in the past eleven years, even though the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group has repeated victories, everyone's confidence has increased day by day, gradually converging into a sense of honor. But this pride was hit head-on tonight - Akane didn't understand where these enemies came from, but there was no doubt that they were extremely difficult and formidable opponents with tenacious will to fight.

She had some bad premonitions in her heart. Nervousness and exhaustion made her young heart beat rapidly in the girl's chest.

"What's wrong?"

"Akane, Yura has been found."

The girl let out a low sigh that was almost like "", and her eyes flashed. She put down her spear and axe, shook her long hair, and then pressed the ends of her hair with her hand and asked, "So what? What does the captain say, should we continue to move forward or retreat?"

There was a chuckle from the crowd. This red-haired girl's favorable impression of Eco is a fact that everyone in the group knows. On the contrary, several parties involved are kept in the dark with a tacit understanding. It's a pity that this secret appreciation can only be buried in the bottom of their hearts - Because Yura is Eco’s fiancée,

Therefore, her relationship with that woman was not necessarily good.

"But Yura is Hoshimi. He is smart, so he must be more valued by the leader."

Akane pretended not to care and hummed, then raised her head and glared at them.

"Be careful of your mouth getting rotten," she said viciously.

But the laughter got louder, and someone said among the good-natured laughter: "Qian, the captain has decided to move to the northeast. You, Reddy and Rolloer each lead a team of people to open the way. We Come with you, okay?"

Akane suddenly grinned: "Why do you want to be with me? Do you have ulterior motives?"

"How could it be?" The few people who were seen through quickly waved their hands.

She raised her head and stared at one of the young men, who quickly lowered his head, "Idiot." Akane snorted in her heart.

"As you wish." She turned around and replied.

Several young people looked at the girl's back and were stunned for a moment. But he didn't understand that the girl was worried. The strength of the 'Solitaire' mercenary group was probably far beyond expectations, but why did Captain Macaro not temporarily order a retreat, but insisted on executing the original plan. Is it because of confidence, or for other reasons?

Akane pressed her hand on her chest and felt her heart beating hard. But now that the leader has given the order, she has no room to disobey. The only thing left to do is rely on the gun in her hand. She tightened her grip on the Thunder Spear. The gun was a gift that Eco bought her from a businessman on her fifteenth birthday. She had already made up her mind to fight with this ax gun until the end, even if she lost her life. Last minute.

Sometimes Akane even feels that this is the whole meaning of her life.

But after she walked for a while, she thought of something else. She turned her head and asked, "I remember that businessman was camping here, why didn't I see him?"

"Probably... got separated..."

Several young people followed up and answered hesitantly. After all, they are not the cronies of the 'Wanglang' Macaro. In fact, not everyone in the 'Gray Wolf' mercenary group knows Brando's identity. Most people still think that they are just as they appear on the surface. : It’s just a temporary alliance.

The girl frowned: "Then let's look in this direction."

"is this okay?"

"Why is it bad? The Gray Wolf Mercenary Group cannot be called treacherous." Qian replied.

The few people behind laughed again. They were obviously soft-hearted, but they wanted to find a high-sounding excuse. Most of them were willing to join her just to see the young lady's unintentional jokes. Of course, most of them were doing so out of good intentions. Just look at it from a local perspective.

But just as the girl finished speaking, another burst of strange laughter sounded in the forest. The creaking sounds made by the scarecrows made by these mercenaries in the noble manor in the flat area east of Denel were hollow and boring, and full of a sense of horror.

Akane's expression changed and she raised her head.

She immediately saw the guy standing on the treetop, wearing a black robe with red edges, laughing - and on the other side of the guy, a giant green beast was entrenched on another black pine. The monster had a sheep's head, and a pair of open fleshy wings drooped downward, revealing a series of spiked black metal chains wrapped around the wings. Silver Moon Demon Wolf

"When will it come?"

The girl was startled and frowned. Although she didn't know what it was, she also understood that it must be a difficult opponent.

"Little girl." The believer in black robe smiled and said in a sharp voice: "You said someone got separated from here?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Akane raised her ax gun and replied through gritted teeth.

In this attack, the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group lost a team of sentries, including a sister with whom she had a very good relationship. Although the mercenary has long been used to seeing life and death, this does not mean that she can live in peace with the enemy who caused all this. Life and death are the mercenary's choice. But the enemy is the enemy, and we are irreconcilable.

"It doesn't matter. One of my colleagues seems to have lost his life at the hands of those people, so I'll take it out of you first." The Black Fire cultist smiled strangely and said, "Abaqus."

There was a clang sound, and a dark chain swept towards the girl from across the air.

The girl groaned and shot the chain away with one shot. However, she was secretly surprised by the strength of the response on her arm. It only took one blow, but her entire right arm was already numb. However, her performance was obviously beyond the expectations of the high-level Black Fire Cultist, "Silver strength! Macaro's men are really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It is really unexpected that a little girl has such strength!"

"There are more things than you can imagine - Logos, the Arrow of Electricity!"

Akane gritted her teeth and replied, stabbing the guy with a backhand shot - an electric light flashed immediately, pulling out a long electric arc along the blade of the spear and axe. There was a crackling sound, and the electric arc had jumped over tens of meters to him. That high-level Black Fire Cultist.

But the arc just hit the man in black robes and was blocked by an invisible shield. Electric sparks flew everywhere. The bark of the pine tree beside the high-level Black Fire Cultist was immediately charred and curled up. However, he himself remained motionless, not even the corners of his robes. Not a single blow was made.

"Second-level magic weapons are rare." After a while, the man in black robe clicked his tongue.

Qian was shocked and completely cold at this moment. She took a breath and felt her hands and feet were cold. After a single moment of fear, she felt anger rising from the bottom of her heart. She turned around and saw her companions drawing weapons and preparing to join the battle. She couldn't help but said angrily: "Run, what are you doing here? !”

"Akane..."

"Captain, you?" Several young people were stunned for a moment.

"Run quickly, I am no match for him, let the captain bring someone to rescue me!"

"The abacus is very good." The high-level Black Fire cultist snorted. As soon as he raised his hand, the monster opposite him immediately shot out another chain.

This time the target is those young people——

"Damn it!"

Akane gritted her teeth and threw the gun towards the chain. With a loud noise, the chain and the thunder gun immediately bounced in two opposite directions. But the red-haired girl immediately raised her hand, and a lightning arc flashed between her and the gun. Then the next moment, the ax gun flew up and returned to her hand - as if the two were sensing each other.

"Elemental resonance!" The Black Fire Cultist screamed strangely. C
