Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 619: In the depths of the nest
Chapter 580 The depths of the nest
If you want to describe the enemy’s nest, the first thing Xia Fan thinks of is the mouse nest.
No one knows how long Dr. Du Lin has been operating here. The caves in the rock wall were opened one by one, forming a complicated underground network. In the face of the church's sudden raid, the enemies hiding inside immediately resisted desperately, without any intention of disarming and surrendering.
Only in the face of absolute overwhelming power, their counter-attack methods appear to be quite limited-not to mention swords, bows and crossbows, the enemy is undoubtedly the most threatening guns and artillery, especially the short-barreled cannon in the middle of the aisle. With the shotgun, the entire offensive line can basically be sealed. If it is used to deal with ordinary people, it is indeed invulnerable, but this time their opponent is the trial team.
The church seems to have long been prepared to deal with this kind of firearms. The two dragon descendants directly lifted heavy iron shields to block the front of the aisle, and their companions released barrier spells at the back. The double insurance made the small caliber firearms appear weak and weak, taking turns. The firing could not stop the advancing of the trial team.
Taxis assumed the responsibility of the main attack.
She is good at shaping energy, and it is the most violent fire spell.
It is probably that the dragon's heart spell is related to flames. Even ordinary fireball spells have become a powerful killer in her hands. Often the enemy is still looking for a cover to stop her. She has turned the sulphur in her hand into a ball of liquid beads the size of a nail and threw it towards the opponent's location. After that, the violently expanding flame mixed with the hot air wave swallowed everything around, if it spread to the powder box, it would cause a more violent explosion. In a closed cave, such a blow is absolutely fatal. If it weren't for the strong body given by the possessor, even the Dragonborn would not be able to gain a foothold in the aisle that was repeatedly swept by the shock wave.
"These guys...none of the gang members of the Azure Fort." Des Moines leaned over and inspected the scorched corpse on the ground and said, "They are a bit like pirates who once entangled in the tranquil sea."
"Are you sure?" Taxis raised her eyebrows.
"Yes, look at the skull ring they wear, as well as the scarlet flag tattoo... These are all symbols of classical sea pirates."
"What do you mean?" Xia Fan asked Olena in a low voice, "Is this pirate divided into classical and modern?"
"Uh..." The latter is also a little confused, "I only heard that pirates haven't appeared in Tranquility Sea for a long time, and I don't quite understand how to classify it..."
"If you have any questions, just ask me directly." Taksis turned her head and said to Xia Fan, "The so-called classical pirates are the people who first appeared on the ocean. Most of them are lawless elements and desperate people. , Relying on attacking ships to grab money. Tranquility Sea is also a major trade channel for various countries, so pirates were particularly rampant for a period of time. However, as countries’ crackdowns increase, the pirates of all parties have suffered heavy losses, and they are now in the Tranquility Sea area. Already basically extinct."
"What is the non-classical pirate?"
"Of course it is the military of various countries." Taxis smiled.
"My lord." Des Moines coughed twice, reminding his boss to pay attention to his words.
"There is nothing to say about this. Whether it’s the Holy Wing Islands, Ranjis, or Natatium, everyone knows it all well." The girl didn’t care, "Compared to classical pirates, this The new pirates are well equipped, with the most advanced battleships and firearms. The ships are often equipped with several spellcasters. They can be killed without leaving a living, which is much more difficult to deal with than the previous gang."
"Master Yongyi!" The Guardian Knight interrupted again.
"It turns out that's the case." Xia Fan patted Des Moines on the shoulder, "Don't be too nervous. I have seen such pirates with my own eyes. It's really not a secret."
"What do you mean?" He frowned.
"Nattating’s fleet just made an appearance in the east. Usually it is the governor of the navy, and it becomes a pirate when it attacks the city."
"Have you ever had a conflict with the navy of Natattin?" Taksis asked unexpectedly, "What happened in the end?"
"The Governor died in battle, the ship was surrendered, and thousands of prisoners were arrested." Xia Fan pretended to be relaxed.
The girl was stunned, and then laughed, “There is such a thing? Why didn’t you say it earlier! With this deed, you will be welcomed by the Hera Church. Although there is no way to publicly commend it, but All kinds of benefits are absolutely indispensable!"
"Even if victory has nothing to do with the Holy Wing Islands?"
"How could it be irrelevant. Every weakening of the Kingdom of Natattin is to relieve the pressure on the countries." Taxis looked at Xia Fan more eagerly, "The church has been recruiting The warrior who caused trouble to Natantium, after this matter is over, follow us to the royal capital."
"My lord, it might be true or not. First catch the real murderer who attacked the convoy and talk about other things." Des Moines reminded, "They are coming around again."
The battle in the cave lasted for about an hour, and the enemy's resistance gradually weakened.
Taxisi and his party also broke into the deepest part of the lair.
Obviously there are pores connected to the outside world. Not only is there no feeling of suffocation, but you can also occasionally feel a cool breeze.
The trial team raised the torch and walked into the cave, which quickly illuminated this small space.
"How did you... find this place?"
A middle-aged man sits leaning against a stone wall, with doubts and regrets in his tone, but he has no fear.
"He is Du Lin!" Li pointed out on the spot.
"Yes, I am Doctor Du Lin." Du Lin's complexion was a little pale, he was holding his waist, and wisps of blood were leaking between his fingers. "Unexpectedly, the Church of Hera would also notice a small person like me. I am really honored...cough cough..."
He was injured, Xia Fan realized.
This person didn't hide here from the beginning. He might also want to resist the attack of the church with other murderers, but was injured by the stray bullets that exploded and had to withdraw from the battle.
Is this person the mastermind of the entire attack? Perhaps Du Lin is very proficient in medication and torturing patients, but his own strength is too weak, not like a strong man who can make the team disappear suddenly.
But who is it if it’s not him? The enemies in the cave have lost their ability to resist the church due to their deaths and injuries. There are also one or two demon owners, but compared with a group of elite dragon descendants, the difference in strength is like a sky deep, and it can't cause enough trouble for the trial group. After cleaning all the way, the resistance of the lair was far lower than he expected.
Taxis takes a step forward and lifts the opponent from the ground~IndoMTL.com~Where is the Son of the Holy Spirit? "
"Ah... just behind this wall..." Du Lin said with difficulty.
"How to open the wall?"
"You need to turn the handle...it's ten steps to the left."
His cooperative attitude made Xia Fan a little more vigilant.
"Be careful, in the underground test room, we have encountered organs spraying dead fog."
"I know. But the Dragonborn is not so afraid of the dead fog," Taxis nodded, "The high heat flame is enough to make the dead fog retreat."
She quickly found a handle, and did what she said.
Driven by the screw device, the stone wall slowly slid to one side, exposing the hidden inner chamber.
When it was fully opened, Xia Fan's heart suddenly sank.
This inner room is only two feet long and wide, plus candles are lit, so everyone on the outside can easily see the inside.
The first thing Xia Fan saw were two corpses nailed to the wall with iron bonds.
