Astral Apostle Chapter 80: Acquaintances

Zhou Jing and others rushed to the workshop first. The inventory here was looted, and all kinds of alien blood potions and alien beast equipment were gone.

Even the craftsmen disappeared, the entire workshop was empty, not even many corpses.

"It is estimated that they were all kidnapped."

People look around.

Since this group of thugs are blood warrior bandits, most of them will capture the artisans and force them to work.

Cole said solemnly: "The mob is still rampaging in the city, which means they have a temporary place to hold their captives."

"Certainly, they dare to attack the fortress city, they can't just take away everyone's loot, so there must be a temporary assembly point in the city, and most of them are ready to pack a beast convoy. They sacked the city, one trip Move the spoils together, and finally return with a full reward."

Zhou Jing didn't hesitate.

The workshop didn't find much, and the group hurried to the Hunter's Tavern.

The tavern was a mess, with pieces of tables and chairs all over the floor. It was obvious that there had been a battle, but there was not a single hunter's body.

"Looks like the hunters were taken away as well, and the thugs didn't kill anyone." Cole was surprised.

"Perhaps they plan to convince hunters to join in like captive craftsmen?" Zhou Jing guessed.

"That's too..." Cole didn't know what to say.

In his opinion, if you want to sack a town, the first thing to do is to kill the hunters in the city.

If the hunters are kept alive, even if they are detained, it will be an unstable factor, and it will become trouble at any time. It is better to kill them.

Don't kill the hunters, but also want to convince them to join... These thugs are either stupid, or extremely confident, or both.

Zhou Jing observed the traces of the battle in the tavern, touched his chin, and pondered the analysis:

"This is a fortress city, and there are not many hunters. Even if most of them are outside, there are usually at least a dozen or twenty people in the town... So the damage caused by the fight will not be so small. This group of thugs do not It may be easy to subdue many hunters, but I must have used means, I guess it was poisoning, making the hunters lose their combat effectiveness."

"The hunter is alive, and we still have a considerable number of helpers." Cole was delighted.

"It's hard to say. Being alive doesn't mean you have combat power. You should also be detained by the thugs in their temporary stronghold, guarded by someone... Look there!"

Zhou Jing said something casually, looked around, and suddenly found intermittent blood spots extending all the way along the road.

Everyone saw it, and their eyes lit up.

This should be the blood stains left by a hunter who resisted being beaten and was transferred and detained.

"You should be able to find the place of detention along the blood trail."

The group immediately followed.

……

Somewhere in Deep Rock, a small bunker.

This was originally one of the barracks where the guards were stationed. At this time, the guards were completely destroyed, and they were occupied by the gang of children of alien blood as a temporary stronghold.

The fire did not spread to this place. The bunker was full of people, hoarding a lot of looted materials, and there were seven sons of alien bandits guarding it.

Zhou Jing and his party followed the blood trail to find this place, hid behind a building in the distance, quickly probed into the bunker, and recorded the appearance and location of the bandits

"Most of this place is the stronghold of the thugs. It seems that there are not many people left behind. It is estimated that they felt that they had subdued most of the hunters and thought that there was no resistance in the city, so they sent a large army to loot?" Cole? Lower your voice.

"This is good news, how do we attack?" The hunter team leader asked for everyone's opinion.

"When the bandit army is not around, go straight up and hack them to death."

Zhou Jing did not hesitate.

Although they are all alien blood enhancers, their team is the elite of imperial hunters.

Both myself and the team leader have been strengthened three times, and Cole, an elite who has been strengthened twice, has a similar number of people, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

There is a high probability that a group of bandits will not have very powerful characters. Most of them are strengthened at one time... The seven left behind are enough to resist the town hunter who slipped through the net, but they are far from the opponents of their elite hunter team of the empire.

Everyone thought about it, but there was no opinion.

Since you are not facing a large enemy force, you don't need to use too many brains, just to weaken the overall strength of the enemy.

The group pulled out their weapons one after another, spread out slightly, took a deep breath, and rushed out.

As soon as they set foot on the empty street, they were noticed by seven left-behind robbers.

The seven people suddenly looked shocked, and hurriedly threw flying knives, javelins, and flying axes at Zhou Jing and others.

Zhou Jing was the fastest, rushing at the forefront, dodging the flying weapons with ease, and rushing to a bandit in a blink of an eye.

The enemy just wanted to attack, but the weapon was only half lifted, and two extremely fast cold lights circled around his neck.

Pfft!

The robber fell bloodlessly, unable to fight back.

Zhou Jing kept walking, his two swords dragged out two light trails, and two people were hacked to death in the blink of an eye. The opponent didn't even have time to defend, so he fell with his eyes wide open.

The level of once-strengthening is now completely unable to keep up with Zhou Jing's speed. He was almost killed in a single duel, and only after he made a parry posture, his neck was already cut off by double knives.

At the same time, in a certain room in the bunker, a dozen or so hunters were lying on the ground, tied tightly, weak and cursing.

"The guy named Dodun actually pretended to be a hunter. I thought it was real, but I didn't expect it to be a gangster!"

"This **** put a paralyzing agent for alien beasts in the wine while we weren't paying attention. I'm still numb all over."

"Damn, I didn't die in the mouth of the alien beast, but was planted in the hands of a group of bandits."

The hunters were full of grief and indignation.

They were drinking as usual in the hunter's tavern, but they were plotted and poisoned.

The paralyzing potion used by the enemy itself is used to capture alien beasts alive, which can paralyze the beasts for a long time. Fight back.

Now the effect of the medicine is getting stronger and stronger, and everyone is paralyzed and almost unable to move.

The chains that usually break with force, have no strength to break them at this moment, and a dozen hunters can only lie here honestly.

At this time, Weber in the crowd said in a deep voice: "Don't be discouraged, think of a way to get out of trouble, these gangsters didn't kill us for some reason, but they can change their minds at any time and kill us."

After leaving White Plains City, he traveled everywhere. He was a freelance hunter and recently settled in Deep Rock City.

Soon, someone reluctantly responded: "We have no strength at all, and we can't escape at all. I hope there are other hunters in the city who have not been recruited like us."

Nowadays, everyone can only hope that at the time of the incident, someone was not in the tavern, and there was no talk.

But having said that, people don't actually have much expectations.

Even if there are hunters in the city who haven't been recruited, the number will not be too many, and they are not opponents of gangsters at all.

Even if they are rescued, the medicinal effect is still in play, and everyone has no fighting power after getting out of trouble. They can only turn into fuel bottles, unable to organize a counterattack, and completely unable to stop the large number of gangsters. fall.

Weber was depressed and helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

The feeling that my life is out of my hands is very disturbing.

At this moment, faint sounds of battle and screams came from outside.

Webber's face changed, and he said solemnly: "Did you hear?"

"There seems to be a fight outside?"

Everyone hurriedly listened, but the voice soon disappeared.

After a while, the door slammed open.

Zhou Jing strode in with his teammates, holding a **** bandit in his hand.

"Brother Hunter, we're here to save you." Cole loudly identified himself beside him.

Many hunters were overjoyed and hurriedly twisted on the ground like earthworms, beckoning those who came to release them quickly.

Cole and the others quickly broke the chains of the hunters one by one, and helped them sit up.

At this time, many hunters saw the appearance of several people clearly, and found that they were unfamiliar faces, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Aren't you the hunters of Deep Rock?"

"Well, we are imperial hunters. We went out to hunt a deadly alien beast. We happened to pass through Deep Rock City and discovered the accident here."

Cole replied, briefly explaining the cause and effect.

"Fortunately you are here, otherwise we will be finished."

Many hunters looked happy and looked at a few people subconsciously.

Webber's eyes swept over everyone, and then he saw Zhou Jing's appearance, and was suddenly stunned.

This guy...how does he look so much like Jason?

At the same time, Zhou Jing also found this familiar face, his heart froze, but his face was calm, pretending not to recognize it.

Before Weber could ask questions, Zhou Jing took the initiative and asked, "How are you guys doing, can you still fight?"

Hearing this, many hunters shook their heads with bitter expressions on their faces.

"We were plotted against, and we took the paralyzing potion. The effect of the drug has not passed, so we can't help you."

Cole can't help frowning: "This is bad..."

They came to rescue the town hunters in order to find helpers to fight the gangsters, but the hunters lost their combat effectiveness, not only can't help, but they have to be distracted to protect.

A few people just caught a live victim and inquired about the information - this group of gangsters called themselves the sons of alien blood. There are nearly 40 members of the gang, all of them are alien blood warriors. deal with.

In particular, Doton, the leader of the son of alien blood, turned out to be a three-time enhancer, the backbone of this bandit gang.

Nearly forty alien blood warriors are already a force that cannot be underestimated. A gang of this size can pose a threat to most cities. It is precisely because Doton has the strength that he has strengthened three times that he can gather so many aliens. Blood warriors, able to overwhelm everyone.

We learned from the captured captives that this Dodun was not always a gangster, but was once a serious hunter. Later, he didn't know what happened, his temperament changed greatly, and finally he went to Xiaoju Mountain Forest, The path of crime for wrongdoing.

As for other gang members, many of them were recruited during the looting process. They caught this group of hunters and did not kill them, just to persuade people to join the gang and strengthen the gang.

"Listen to this live mouth, their plan is to loot all night, the night is still long, and we still have a lot of time... While the alien blood children's army is still looting outside, you first take the hunters to transfer, By the way, I also let those workshop craftsmen go."

Zhou Jing turned his head and said to the crowd with a firm tone.

"What about you?" The team leader didn't mind Zhou Jing giving orders, but asked with wide eyes.

"I'll do a reconnaissance to see if I can find a single enemy to kill. By the way, I can stop the enemy's large army from coming back so quickly and create time for you."

"...OK, you're safe."

The squad leader thought for a moment, but had no objection.

He is not too worried about Zhou Jing. Although he has been strengthened three times, he and Zhou Jing have discussed many times in the past few months, and they have never been able to win. He knows that Zhou Jing's strength is superior to him, and the opponent is just Too lazy to lead the team.

Zhou Jing nodded, threw down the bandit's mouth, and then turned to leave the bunker.

Webber watched Zhou Jing leave, opened his mouth, but still did not speak.

He was full of surprise, wondering why he saw someone so similar to Jason.

Weber can only be sure that this person is definitely not Jason, because Jason is dead and he is watching the burial.

This similarity can only prove that this person and Jason may have a blood relationship...

But now is not the time to say these, Weber did not immediately ask the doubts in his heart, and decided to find an opportunity to ask in private... If he can survive tonight.

……

Dorton and his party searched in Deep Rock City, but found no other resistance team, but found another corpse of his accomplice who was stabbed and killed by soil, as if he had been pierced, going up and down, and his death was tragic.

"Who is it that dares to kill my brother!"

Dorton looked at the corpse of his accomplice with anger in his eyes.

He doesn't know the specific battle process, but in his opinion, normal battles will not be such a tragic death. This must be the enemy's slaughter and anger.

"Keep looking, I'm going to give this guy a taste of the same way of dying!"

Double stood up, his face ashen.

But the accomplices behind him had different opinions and said:

"Boss~IndoMTL.com~ Let's go back to the base first and put the harvest away."

In the process of searching for Shicai, everyone also ransacked. At this time, everyone was full of loot, and they just wanted to go back and save it, and then come out to continue looting.

Dundun looked back and saw that everyone had the same wishes, so he suppressed his anger and nodded, "Okay, then go back to the base first, put down the things on your hands, and then go after this enemy, and let him by the way. Don't put anyone else on the list."

More than a dozen bandits immediately returned to the stronghold.

The bandits who received the news on the road also came to meet, and the team quickly grew to more than 20 people.

Walking, the group suddenly stopped and looked forward in surprise.

I saw at the end of the street where the fire spread, a figure with a pair of knives slowly approached in the smoke, looming, blocking the way.

Zhou Jing stepped out of the smoke and stood in front of more than two dozen people. He glanced at everyone with implicit excitement, and then pointed at all the enemies with the blade.

"Finally found you guys, come and slash with me."
