Chapter 81: Escape? Face?
ps: The typo is being modified.
Barrett, who broke into the kitchen, found that the situation here was much better than the front desk. However, from the furnace that still emitted heat, it can be seen that the employees here were still walking in a hurry before - the kettle on the stove was spraying white mist out, "Puch! Puch!"
‘There is actually a corridor that passes horizontally from the bar to the kitchen? It seems that when the construction plan of the Shield Axe Tavern was planning, he considered similar things.’ Barrett, who had no idea why this idea came up in his mind, followed the items left by his predecessors - that was a way to survive that the previous escapees pointed out to him.
The L-shaped corridor is not long. Barrett, who accelerated it, took only a few seconds to complete the entire journey. Stepping out of the door that could only open from the inside at the other end of the passage, Barrett found that everything in front of him was a different world than when he was in the docks street before.
The road here is worse than the tavern where the typhoon had passed through before. At least there would not be so many grains and reincarnations on the floor of the tavern. Even after hundreds of years of continuous publicity by the Church of the God of Knowledge, the concept of hygiene among the indigenous people has never been fully established.
In comparison, the dock area, which is the facade of Walter Harbor, is much better. Although Barrett had encountered dogs' Mitian before during his time with the Shawars, it was just an individual manifestation after all. Regular cleaning will inevitably lead to a time difference, and animals do not want humans to abide by the rules as accurately as humans.
Facing the road in front of him where he didn't know where to get off, Barrett gritted his teeth and stepped out. After all, compared with the possible pursuers behind him, the "crunch" sound from under his feet and the disgusting feeling of companionship were all small.
After entering the new street, Barrett found that the houses in this area looked very simple overall. They were often made of wood, tarpaulin and thatch. Houses with bricks and terracotta were rarely seen.
With the dark vision ability of the characters, Barrett could still find that these houses looked a little dilapidated in this dark night. Both the pillars and the wall panels had traces of time left. What is even more surprising is that these buildings were not even flattened with planes. The scars left when cutting off the branches were vaguely visible on the pillars next to them.
While speeding up, Barrett also carefully chose the foothold. If it was not necessary, he would not want other places to carry such disgusting things on his body besides shoes. While running quickly, Barrett suddenly found that there seemed to be two walls like waves on both sides of the road. After careful attention, he found that it was caused by the crowded houses on both sides of the road.
Although all the houses on both sides of the slums were closed tightly at this time. However, from the wide doors, we can see that these houses faced the street and seemed to have been opened to shops. If you guessed correctly by Barrett, you should be a warehouse or a place where employees live, and perhaps some of them had storage basements. Such farmers' markets were very common in Karada more than 200 years ago, and they were often sold as daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, pots, pans, etc.
"If the rumors are true, I really want to compliment the Viscount "Golden Jing Bird"'s original idea. No matter what the other party's starting point is, this old city renovation project is definitely beneficial to the residents here." Barrett, who was muttering, did not forget to murmur in a low voice, "And if he was allowed to complete it, I wouldn't have to be so disgusting today."
When he was in the Shield Axe Tavern, Barrett heard the bartender say that the "Golden Bing Bird" Viscount Cristol once wanted to convert all the houses along the slums into neat brick and tile buildings. However, in the end, the plan was stranded due to financial inadequacies and other reasons.
On the way, Barrett suddenly found that he had jumped past the inconspicuous small door, and there was a wooden sign painted with a bed to show that it was a hotel. At the same time, Barrett's thoughts still couldn't help but spread: 'In such a harsh environment, their guests were mostly miserable women who were making a living in the nearby red light district! Perhaps it was also the joints chosen by some shameful exchanges.'
Just when Barrett couldn't stop thinking about it even during his escape, he vaguely heard a ridiculous sound from his left hand, mixed with many sounds. Even if he calmed down, he could only cry, and the sound of slashing and howling could barely be distinguished.
"Do you need to go over and take a look?" This thought suddenly emerged from Barrett's head, and even his body stopped and turned his head to look in the direction where the sound came out.
"What's wrong with me? I've just escaped from the encirclement of those damn Shahua fish men. Shouldn't we stay away from those dangers as much as possible?" Barrett, who shook his head with a wry smile, then took a step and ran two steps before. Then the expression on his face became entangled again.
After a lot of this street that felt like it was empty, Barrett stomped his feet and searched for the alleys on the side of the road: "Damn it! It seems that the odor left during the test cannot be changed in a short time. No, no! It must be that damn Taoist Sanbao was twitching in my mind. I am not born..."
Barrett, who found a suitable alley, pulled out the Modao, who had been sheathed, and ran in the direction of the noisy with a tangled look on his face. He ran all the way and muttered: "When the registered mercenaries were invaded by foreign tribes in the city, they had the obligation to take the initiative to surround the civilians. I am just fulfilling this obligation of this identity. I hope the camp will not be too ruthless..."
The moment he stepped out of the alley, what caught Barrett's eyes was a sea of fire. Only a block away, the houses here were filled with fire. Obviously, the dense buildings in Walter Harbor made the fire spread very quickly. They had spread from the dock area to the closely connected civilian area.
At the same time, looking at the rolling buckets and brooms on the ground, Barrett also knew why the streets of the previous civilian area were so quiet. The blazing fire made most of the numb residents in these civilian areas have to muster up the few courages in their hearts to defend their homes.
However, the next monster that appeared in Barrett's vision made him wonder if there was something wrong in his eyes: "Damn it! What about these things! Where are the fishmans? Where did the fishmans talk about?"
Just not far from Barrett, a monster's protruding and unable to close lips suddenly split in four directions like a blooming cereus. The teeth and scarlet sticky film were exposed from it, making Barrett feel creepy when he saw it.
More importantly, the monster used its strong forelimbs to quietly grab a civilian who was about 5 feet and 4 inches from his back. He directly wrapped his mouth like a man-eating flower into the unlucky guy's head.
The chewing sound of "guji!guji!" made Barrett immediately feel his stomach begin to swell. He covered his mouth with his hands and resisted the urge to vomit. Barrett moved his position carefully while paying attention to the scene in front of him.
Looking in the opposite direction of the monster, Barrett could vaguely find some figures still running away with the fire. However, in this fire scene, you could also see some indigenous people who had no time to escape or "resist the back to break the back".
Some of them fell down and struggled to get up. Others held the tools they had previously put on fire and stepped back with small steps - as if the hammers with metal parts could give them a sense of security.
After all, Barrett is not a thief who is good at stealth, and he did not cover up when he rushed out of the street. As a creature that suddenly appeared, Barrett naturally attracted the attention of those monsters.
Among the monsters foraging everywhere, a broken corpse in its claws soon threw away. Then he rushed towards Barrett, a big man who could obviously make it have a full meal.
Bow, twisting the waist, slashing shoulders, facing the monster that was rushing towards him with his teeth and claws. Barrett stuffed his blade into the opponent's four-petal mouth that had been opened.
After the "Puff-tear-tear-" sound, Barrett found that the monster in front of him had just been knocked away by himself. After a few rounds on the dirty ground, the guy actually stood up again as if he was not affected.
Even if the sharp blade was inserted into the mouth, it was not enough to divide its skull into two. However, the guy's claws brought out five sparks on Barrett's armor.
Looking at the monster in front of him who was flowing out of blood, but his partner was jumping around. Barret, who frowned, opened his message panel.
"Hit into the mouth... The monster you are facing is a strange monster... This attack does not belong to a vital attack..."
"This attack caused 30 points of damage... Deducted monster damage and reduced... A total of 20 points of damage..."
After seeing the data provided, Barrett looked at the monster and became more alert: "Is there any damage reduction of more than 10? And it is not a type that can be ignored by magic weapons. And after taking 20 points of damage, he still looks like a ok person. This guy seems to have resistance to strikes, it seems that he is almost the same as the Berserker Demon! And the strange..."
Some strange creatures have developed intelligence. Some do not; some strange creatures have outlines similar to humanoid creatures, some do not; some strange creatures have natural supernatural abilities, and some do not. That is to say, there are no separate and common characteristics that can distinguish strange creatures from other types of creatures. At the same time, there is no standard that can connect various kinds of strange creatures.
Simply put, the so-called weird is a collective name for strange creatures that cannot be found in the appropriate grammatical category according to existing academic reminders. In comparison, other monsters (whether insects, plants, ferocious animals, and magical beasts) are at least part of nature. Or they at least have some common thinking and behavior patterns with natural creatures. But weird is different. In almost every aspect, they do not follow the patterns that most creatures follow. Their origins can be traced back to unimaginable distant space-time and even plane systems.
So the biological structure of strange monsters is very different from that of most creatures in nature. For common monsters in nature, they are the key ones. Although they are also the key ones for some monsters, they may be dispensable organs in other strange monsters.
"If you can't find the key, then you can only fight hard?" For Barrett, who has been accustomed to using a monastery to directly kill people's heads and quickly kill enemies since entering the game, this kind of monster that cannot find weaknesses and must be solved like a stick to kill people alive. He really feels that the fox catches the hedgehog - he has no idea how to start!
During Barrett's short pause, another indigenous man was attacked by monsters. Even the magic weapon that Barrett waved could not cause effective damage to the monster in front of him, and the fire sticks in the hands of those indigenous men could only scratch the other party.
I don’t know if it’s a matter of preference or something else. The monster in front of me always likes to chew on the humans falling into their hands from the head. The red and white liquid, mixed with broken bones and hair, flows to the ground along the monster’s four-petal mouths covered with teeth. This scene has a huge impact on people, leading the indigenous people who are barely standing to lose their power to escape.
The only creature in Barrett's vision that could pose a threat to them immediately attracted the attention of those monsters. The monster that was just hit by Barrett rushed towards Barrett again.
A mistakenly avoided the other party's waving claws in the air, then squatted down slightly and docked the whip tail of the whistling whip. He stood up and exhale, and after exerting force on his waist, Barrett's sharp blade made a diagonal cut from the lower left to the upper right.
"The giant mountain breaks!" Barrett, who activated the attacking technique, felt as if he was under heavy pressure on his feet. The weapons in his hand were like carrying a mountain peak, clearly drawing a wide and deadly arc. It gave people the feeling of a dwarf waving his beloved heavy hammer and hitting someone.
The collision began - Shilongliu's powerful strike skills and the powerful damage reduction ability given by indescribable objects were contested in this one.
If it weren't for the "crunching" sound of bone cracking and the "tearing" sound of leather breaking during the process of filling the meat, this contest can be described as a heated bread knife cutting butter - a heavy blow like a mountain, which directly stirred the belly of the monster in front of you into a ball of paste.
The semi-fluid viscous liquid poured out along the huge wound on the torso could not even find a complete internal organ. Barrett, who was covered in the smelly liquid, turned his head and looked. Even after suffering such injuries, the monster in front of him still struggled with its tenacious vitality.
Looking at the monster in front of him who was constantly twisting his limbs and trying to get up, Barrett once again turned his attention to the battle report in the mission panel.
"The player hits the key point, causing 84 damage..."
"Damage reduction calculation...Jiushan break effect identification..."
"The player successfully caused 84 damage to..."
"Not it! Can't even die like this? It seems that you need to be careful when facing strange monsters in the future." The tenacious vitality of the monster in front of you really taught Barrett a deep lesson.
However, Barrett had no plans to keep Qingda for the monster that taught him this information. After avoiding the next monster that pounced on him, Barrett also did not forget to add two swords to the monster on the ground. Then the monster that was almost broken into two pieces was lying on the ground without moving.
The death of his companion seemed to arouse the ferociousness of the monsters in front of him. The monsters present rushed towards Barrett. They had no skills and did not know how to cooperate well. The monsters in front of him surrounded Barrett just by relying on the power and speed brought by the powerful body.
What was in my ear was the sound of wind brought by these monsters. The sharp claws were shining with cold light and the sword in Barrett's hand burst out with dazzling sparks. The ray of green light and fishy smell hidden under the cold light made Barrett become more careful when facing the claws of those monsters.
If it were just a monster, Barrett would naturally appear to be much calmer in dealing with it. However, such a guy had three or four at once, but Barrett now had no chance to fight back. Now he had no teammates who could provide assistance. If he had attacked with all his strength and injured himself, his life would probably be left here.
‘Damn it! I don’t know how Lalu and the others in the hotel are now. I hope they don’t encounter such monsters like me!’ While resisting the monster’s pounce, claw strikes and tail whip, Barrett, who took a small step back, couldn’t help but worry about his companions.
On the other hand, Fugui Nianhua Hotel is now facing a harsh test of several people.
The sound of "bang!bang!bang!" kept coming from the hotel gate. Looking from the window on the second floor, I saw that the hotel was surrounded by monsters.
Barrett's worries are no longer a fait accompli. The dock area is now flooded by unknown monsters. What Barrett himself saw is just a little guy who is scattered outside.
"Ding! Ding!" A piece of wood chips shot out from the door treated with alchemy potion. The monster outside had already used its claws to chisel some small holes in the door.
"How long will it last?" Mr. Killips asked the hotel's escort captain with an ugly expression.
The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes licked his lips uneasyly: "It can be blocked for about 15 minutes!"
"Bang!" A piece of wood chips splashed out, and another yellow beeswax-like spot appeared in the dark oak door.
"Sir, I can hold on for about 7 minutes!" The man with thick eyebrows and big eyes swallowed the saliva in his mouth.
"10 minutes?" Mr. Kilipps's forehead, which had been twisted together, deepened a few more wrinkles, "How are you preparing? Do you have any plans for combat?"
The captain of the guard with thick eyebrows and big eyes carefully proposed: "Sir, we are going to give up the first floor of the hotel. We will use the advantageous position of the stairs to find a way to block these guys outside. If we resist here, the terrain will not be beneficial to us."
"Give up the first floor?" Mr. Kilipps touched his chin, and then he could only sigh helplessly: "Give up the first floor and give up the first floor! Anyway, the benefits today have been transferred to the church temple. Although these decorations are also valuable, they are far less important than protecting the reputation of customers! Get ready quickly!"
The captain of the guard immediately made a promise: "Sir, don't worry! I have prepared everything I need. I'll wait for your order."
.The latter immediately asked as soon as he met: "Mr. Kilips! Is there a release scroll in the hotel that stores camp weapons, which is the spell?"
"Factory Weapon?" Mr. Kilipps asked with his head up.
: "That's right! It's a camp weapon. Rielli suddenly remembered that these servants of Pokurug enjoyed the protection of chaotic energy from the alien plane. If there were no order-like camp weapons to attack, ordinary people would not be able to cause effective damage to them. And I don't have time to prepare this magic trick now."
"Capital Weapons.Capital Weapons!" While Mr. Kilips was muttering, his original bitter melon face also became darker.
Suddenly, a strange voice came from a distance: "Two priests! I seem to hear someone needing a spell book of camp weapons, right?"
Following this voice, the two priests of the goddess of wealth and business immediately turned their eyes toward each other. It was as if the drowning man was trying to catch the last straw.
"Swoosh!" A barb on the back of a monster suddenly flew out when it approached Barrett. The sudden attack caught Barrett off guard. Even if he dodged immediately, a blood mark was still left on his face, and black blood was even more overflowing from the blood mark.
"Damn it! This is poisonous!" Feeling the numbness from his cheeks, Barrett was almost cursing. But at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from a distance.
This is getting closer and closer to Barrett, and a long string of torches came straight to this side. The person running in the front did not take the torches. These young and middle-aged men in full armed manner are the "public security team" in civilian areas. They claim to be the secretly supported and established their own military forces (to be continued.
