Light Eagle Legion Assassination Squad

"Awooo—"

The howling of wolves grew closer, as if wild beasts were about to attack the people.

However, the Skyrim Strategy Team had no time to worry about wild beasts at that moment.

Because their own captain exploded!

Thick smoke billowed, making it impossible to see how Lu Lu Wo was doing at the center of the explosion, but a faint breath could still be sensed.

Ta Mi was about to rush in to save the people, but a question arose in her mind: where did the arrows come from?

Just as the thought crossed his mind, he heard the sound of crossbow bolts being nocked from the nearby jungle.

There's an ambush!

They no longer had time to think about who wanted to harm them. There was nowhere to hide on the entire cliff, and they had no shields to defend themselves, so they had to run to the mage's side!

Without a magic wand, the power of the magic used by Ai Si Ai Mu and other magicians would be reduced, but at this moment it is a lifesaver!

"Swish swish——"

A barrage of enchanted arrows rained down upon them. The mages worked together to create Magic Shield, which worked well at first. However, as the enchanted arrows began to explode, the Magic Shield's flashing frequency increased significantly, and everyone had to exert all their magic power to barely maintain it.

"What on earth is going on? Who wants to mess with us?" Mi La shouted. At this moment, she didn't even have a handy weapon, so she could only pull a few barbecue skewers from the fire pit and twist them together.

Bows and crossbows are something that only intelligent species would use, so the ones who attacked them must be intelligent beings.

"Instead of thinking about these things, let's think about how to escape," Bei Er Tuo said to Ta Mi, throwing away his shattered glasses. "I'll go rescue the captain. You and Mi La will cover Ai Si Ai Mu and the others and keep them at bay."

"Oh!" Although he had no weapon on him, Ta Mi still clenched his fists. Back then, he was a well-known king of the kids in the surrounding villages, and his iron fists could beat up eight-year-old children.

"The only way to get down the cliff is to break through. Once the enemy finds that the crossbows are ineffective, they will definitely rush to fight. Don't panic at that time, carefully look for any possible breakthroughs they may have."

Before he could finish speaking, Bei Er Tuo had already broken out of the protective range of the Magic Shield.

The unknown enemy had already discovered his location, and immediately a small number of arrows flew towards him.

"I thought that once I stepped down from the front lines, I wouldn't have to fight anymore."

Bei Er Tuo clicked his tongue and slid across the barrage of arrows as Agility. He grabbed the barbecue grill and swatted away even more arrows. When he reached the place where everyone had stored their supplies, he carried his heavy backpack as a shield. He crushed the tattered grill and, in a flash, sent the fragments flying into the jungle.

Screams seemed to come from the forest, mixed with the sounds of wild beasts. Were the attackers Orcs? But he didn't care much, because at this moment the thick smoke from the explosion had mostly dissipated, and Lu Lu Wo, lying on the ground, revealed most of her body.

"Captain, how are you?"

Bei Er Tuo pulled out Healing Potion he carried with him from inside his clothes and uncorked the bottle when he was still a meter away from Lu Lu Wo.

The smoke suddenly billowed, and as the potion was splashed onto Lu Lu Wo, a huge, hairy fist abruptly appeared in front of Bei Er Tuo.

"!"

A heavy and powerful punch landed squarely on Bei Er Tuo's head, sending him rolling several times on the ground before he finally came to a stop.

"Cough cough, pfft." Bei Er Tuo coughed up a mouthful of blood, feeling dizzy and lightheaded, and tried his best to look up ahead.

The thick fog had completely dissipated, revealing the figures of the attackers.

It was a little giant more than three meters tall, with a beast-like body, furry skin, and a head with the word "king" written on it. Is this a tiger orc?

No, his fists and feet were covered in snake-like scales, and he had octopus-like tentacles on his back.

"A demon?" Bei Er Tuo was momentarily dazed. Only demons possessed such an alien form, but the other party's aura was unlike that of a demon; instead, it was closer to that of a magical beast.

What exactly is this thing?

Let's call him Orcs for now. The Orcs's mouth moved as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back.

When they arrived, the group leader warned them that too much talk would lead to mistakes, so they shouldn't speak.

This suggestion is indeed good, because his silence combined with his massive body creates a unique sense of oppression.

"Senior, let me help you!" Ta Mi shouted.

"Don't come any closer, focus on your side!"

Bei Er Tuo shouted to stop them, because the enemy's arrow attack had ended, and one after another, the alien "monsters" emerged from the forest. They crushed and swallowed the crossbows in their hands, and the enchanted arrows were "completely destroyed" by the explosion. Apart from the charred marks on the ground, there was no trace to prove their existence.

These Orcs, each possessing at least three animal characteristics, roared and charged at the group from different directions. At first glance, they appeared chaotic, but upon closer inspection, they seemed to be following a certain formation, proving they were definitely not mindless monsters.

Before Bei Er Tuo could analyze the situation further, the Orcs's fist was already upon him. If that punch landed, his internal organs would be shattered.

"Bang--"

The powerful shockwave sent the surrounding stones flying, and the Orcs's smug expression vanished, replaced by a surprised "Eh."

Because Bei Er Tuo blocked his fist with his hand, and although the other man's arm was trembling, he did indeed block it.

"Heh, although I don't have any weapons, I do know a little bit of martial arts."

Bei Er Tuo struck a martial arts stance with the air of a master.

"Tch." The octopus tentacles on the Orcs's back wrapped around his fists, and he roared as he lunged at Bei Er Tuo.

"Wow, as expected of a senior, you can still remain so calm!"

Ta Mi glanced back before calmly facing the danger ahead. The situation was dire; there were more than twenty enemies, and any one of Orcs could hold his own against him, making it difficult for him to spare any energy to take care of others. Mi La two enemies at once, but facing even more enemies was proving much more challenging.

Fortunately, those who can join the Skyrim Strategy Team are not ordinary people. Even the mages, who are known for their "frail health", are first-rate marathon runners.

After all, apart from Ta Mi, all the new recruits were handpicked by Lu Lu Wo from the original invaders. Their morals might be questionable, but their fighting spirit is definitely not weak.

Even though the Skyrim Strategy Team is currently being overwhelmed by the Orcs, no one has died yet. This is not in the dungeon, so everyone is being very careful.

However, their good fortune was short-lived. The Orcs, using themselves as weapons, were able to drive the unarmed Skyrim Strategy Team into a corner, forcing them to retreat to the edge of a cliff.

There is a high wall between unarmed and armed.

"Ah!"

Bei Er Tuo screamed and collided with Ta Mi, leaving him bruised and battered. Meanwhile, the orc Orcs who fought him, though injured, recovered so quickly that he appeared completely unharmed.

"What should I do now?" Mi La was a little panicked. Looking at the Orcs approaching with a sneer, she felt really insecure as she was unarmed. Moreover, she had lost her left hand after killing just one Orcs.

On the other side, Ta Mi was captured by Orcs while trying to save someone and was struggling incessantly. Everyone who went to rescue him was surrounded.

"Ta Mi."

Bei Er Tuo struggled to his feet, vowing that if he could return alive, he would definitely go back to the front line and would not come out until he had trained in the dungeon to the level of the Sword Saint Gapar!

At that moment, the Orcs leader made a gesture, and one of the Orcs immediately pulled out something and pointed it at Ta Mi — Image Stone!?

They wanted to document how Ta Mi was torn apart by the Orcs.

"That damned bastard!"

Ta Mi was held in the Orcs's hands like a giant figurine. The Orcs made him their first target because he had just killed an Orcs by himself.

Only Ta Mi and Mi La had Orcs heads on the field, and the magic used by the mages without magic wands could at most stun the Orcs.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Skyrim Strategy Team will probably be wiped out here today.

"Roar!"

The Orcs roared and bit Ta Mi's shoulder, tearing off a piece of bloody flesh. He then pulled on Tammy's arms, trying to rip him apart alive.

"Ta Mi, no!"

"Snap!"

Something suddenly fell at the feet of the Orcs. It was round and glowed faintly, and as if by magic, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

That's Lure Skull.

The Orcs froze for a few seconds, then those closest to the skull suddenly pounced on it uncontrollably, even fighting over it with their eyes turning red!

The Orcs chieftain was shocked and rushed to stop him, but when he got close enough, he couldn't help but pounce on the Lure Skull.

At this moment, more and more skulls fell from the sky, landing on the ground with a clatter.

Now the other Orcs couldn't control themselves either, and pounced on it like dogs seeing excrement!

"What, what's going on?"

Ta Mi, who had just been put down, was in shock. Just then, he suddenly saw something and exclaimed in surprise, "Captain!"

"Stop standing there, run!"

Not far away, Lu Lu Wo, who had just thrown out a bag full of Lure Skull, shouted loudly. Everyone came to their senses and ran away.

These Orcs' bestiality surpassed their humanity, so they were uncontrollably drawn to the Lure Skull, unlike the pure humans of the Skyrim Strategy Team.

"Captain, are you alright?"

"You, cough cough, I don't look like I'm alright at all!?"

Lu Lu Wo's beautiful dress was almost blown to shreds, and a charred hole was clearly visible in her chest, through which one could see the other side.

"I have Orcs blood, after all. If you had been hit like that, you would have been dead long ago!"

That being said, Lu Lu Wo's current condition is definitely not good. She's limping when she runs, and at this point, any random Curse Frog could fight her to the point of obliteration.

At this moment, all she wanted to do was run to Bede City for help as soon as possible. She didn't want to have any contact with the Orcs at all. Fortunately, Ta Mi brought the wrong supplies today.

Who exactly are these Orcs? I haven't heard of any Orcs bandits appearing recently, and they look rather strange.

Lu Lu Wo glanced back and saw that the Orcs were still entangled with the Lure Skull and showed no intention of pursuing them.

Excellent! Praise be to the Zane Dungeon! Praise be to Manager Ma Lei Da!

If she gets back alive this time, I'll definitely give Ma Lei Da a big surprise!

Just as everyone was about to run into the forest, Lu Lu Wo suddenly sensed something, instinctively dodged to the side, and kicked Ta Mi away.

"Rub--"

A flash of black light appeared, and blood suddenly spurted from her neck. Her body went limp and she collapsed to the ground.

Lying on the ground, clutching her bleeding neck, she had only one thought in her mind.

"Why is all the damage being directed at me?"

The group immediately stopped and rushed back to help Lu Lu Wo. When they turned around, they saw a twisted humanoid figure, completely black, standing not far away.

Under the moonlight, the figure stood like a human, yet it had a wriggling, slime -Slime like quality to it, with only the mask on its face revealing the head.

Bei Er Tuo was trembling all over after just one glance.

The enemies that came this time were not in the same league as those Orcs!

"In the end, I still had to do it myself. Oh, I shouldn't have said that."

The Black Shadow Man twisted its body strangely, and several daggers suddenly appeared all over its body.

Get out of the way!

Before Bei Er Tuo could utter that shout, a flash of black light appeared, and everyone's tendons were severed by daggers, causing them to fall to the ground like Lu Lu Wo.

Instantly dominating the entire scene!

Although it was a sneak attack, and the Skyrim Strategy Team was wiped out and completely crippled and unarmed, the Black Shadow Man's strength was undeniable.

A tentacle extended from his body, picked up the Image Stone that had fallen to the ground, pointed it at the crowd, and then another part of himself split off, transforming into an ordinary Orcs.

He wanted to personally finish what the Orcs hadn't completed and give his leader an explanation.

"What exactly is your purpose?" Bei Er Tuo gritted his teeth. He remembered that the Skyrim Strategy Team never actively provoked enemies.

The Black Shadow Man remained silent, emanating a suffocating silence, yet his mind was in turmoil.

Why? Because you shouldn't get too close to Captain Gers.

[Captain Iliphis is currently lacking in power. She originally intended to preserve Captain Gers's human identity, but now it is necessary for her to also accept the Fallen Devil Egg, thus increasing their chances of victory when facing the Zane Dungeon.]

[If Captain Gers could see your gruesome deaths, her negative emotions would surely be incredibly high, making her power after her fall even stronger and more delicious.]

[Moreover, the leader values his comrades highly, and your actions have displeased him somewhat.]

The Assassination Squad is a mysterious team within the Light Eagle Legion, characterized by all members carrying Fallen Devil Egg and being absolutely loyal to Iliphis.

Normally they hide among the various squads, and they will be dispatched as soon as Iliphis gives the order. Even the other captains are unaware of the existence of the Assassination Squad.

Iliphis could certainly use his abilities to manipulate Elsa's negative emotions, naturally generated negative emotions would be far more effective when using the Fallen Devil Egg than when he artificially cultivated them.

Elsa's talent was unparalleled, and he didn't want to waste a single bit of it.

Furthermore, due to his experience in the Zane Dungeon, Iliphis developed a fear of insufficient firepower. He had originally planned to demonize Elsa a year later, but now he has to do it sooner.

I'm also really looking forward to seeing what Captain Gers will look like after her fall from grace. She's already so charming now, I can't even imagine how delicious she'll be in the future.

With that in mind, he decided to use every trick in the book to torture the Skyrim Strategy Team in the most cruel way.

"Hey-hey."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Although there was no specific explanation, people felt a deep sense of malice and couldn't help but shudder.

[It's decided, let's start the Blood sacrifice with the most hated Lu Lu Wo!]

He had already realized that Lu Lu Wo was still alive and was even up to something, but posed no threat.

The Black Shadow Man chuckled eerily and slowly walked towards the crowd.

"Smack!"

Just then, something exploded in the sky, turning the sky into a kaleidoscope of colors.

[Fireworks.?]

The Black Shadow Man looked up at the sky, where a firework burst into bloom, turning the night sky into a dreamlike color.

The person who set off the fireworks was none other than Lu Lu Wo on the ground.

Lu Lu Wo raised her head, smiled, and said:

"I should have noticed it sooner, why are there wolves howling in this desolate wilderness."

[What wolf howls? Wait, could it be... But they should be in the Zane Dungeon today, I've already checked!]

"A Cloud Piercing Arrow, Farron Guard come to meet him."

"Awoo!"

A wolf howl that pierced the sky echoed through the forest, and at the same time, the Black Shadow Man suddenly looked up at the sky.

There, a gleaming Farron Greatsword spun and cleaved toward his head!

Are they the Farron Undead Legion?

No, it's Da Er, who hasn't appeared in a long time!
