Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 53: Joint action

"Drink!"

Swinging the sword again to drive the corpse close to her, Shana breathed out. The wounds on her shoulders had begun to numb, and even her arms gradually lost sensation. There were more and more ghouls around, even making Shana feel a bit depressed.

Is this about to end?

She bit her lower lip, and the tingling came, but she couldn't drive out the despair and heavy weight inside. Although after accepting the task, Shana thought that she had made perfect preparations, but when she led her subordinates to actually step in here, she realized that she thought it was too simple.

As a four-star mission, Pavel Cemetery is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and a steady stream of undead is rushing to them like a tide, almost sweeping them in. Although Shana led her subordinates to defeat their offense again and again, but her losses were not small. Until just now, five or six members had been lost in the team, and most of the others were injured. Under the circumstances, can they persist?

Shana has thought about retreating more than once, but in the end she still clenched her teeth and now it is too late to quit. She has gone too far into it and has lost her chance to get out. The only chance right now is to persevere and destroy the undead mage, so maybe there is still a chance.

Although that is the case, Shana knows that this is almost impossible. They can't even figure out these undead creatures now. Where's the chance to face the terrible and powerful undead mage?

Not only Shana, but even her subordinates, their hearts are already desperate. In the face of these sickening but difficult to destroy undead creatures, only the will to survive still supports the weapons in their hands, instinct Tried to pull himself back from the edge of the death abyss.

But this is also their limit.

"bad!"

Shana suddenly woke up when she smelled the stinky smell. At this moment, she suddenly felt a sudden shake in her hands, and then a huge impact came. Shana didn't hold her, the long sword in her hand was blown high, and then fell to the ground, which was originally burning. The flames suddenly dissipated at this time, and at the same time, an ugly ghoul wailed and stretched out his arms and hurled at her.

She's gone!

At this moment, Shana's heart sank in a straight line. As a swordsman, of course she knew what the consequences would be if she walked in battle, and now she is about to taste this bitter result—at the cost of her own life.

Fortunately, Death's sickle passed her this time.

Just when Shana closed her eyes and was ready to confess her fate, a dazzling light descended from the sky, as if a hammer penetrated the body of the ghoul, and the monster that was about to succeed trembled heavily, then like a stall The slime collapsed to the ground.

The cold ice wind was blowing.

Everyone's body was stiff, and then a dazzling lightning leap passed.

"Boom boom boom !!!"

Just a blink of an eye, those terrible undead creatures were completely wiped out in this round of explosions, and until then, many people saw several people standing at the entrance to the other side.

"Sister Shana, are you okay!"

Seeing that the danger had been lifted, Li Jie hurried toward the crowd. And after casting the spell, Marin threw her long hair proudly, and then looked at Rod with a confident smile, apparently begging him: how, look, I'm doing well.

But in the face of Marin's gesture, Rhodes's face was a bit unspeakable ......... It is indeed a top student who loves five lectures, four beauty, and three loves. I mean to take them all away ......... forget it After all, when he gave the order, Rhodes didn't expect Li Jie to know these people. Now he is grateful to Marin's superior student thinking. Fortunately, she is not a player, otherwise maybe the trouble has already gotten worse.

"It's the Red Eagle ..."

Looking at the red-haired female swordsman not far away, the old Walker murmured to himself, he and Rhode glanced at each other, and they saw each other's inner thoughts.

"Lijie?"

For the rest of her life, Shana was startled by the figure before she could celebrate her luck.

"How did you come here?"

"I'm here to perform the task."

Li Jie replied, kneeling in front of Shana, and soon she stretched out her hands. With a faint light, the wound on the red-haired female swordsman quickly healed, even the corpse poison in the original office at this moment. Also completely removed.

This is the important part of the spiritual master. Although the mercenaries are more or less skilled in bandaging and healing wounds, only the spiritual master's spiritual skills can achieve immediate results. Therefore, each spiritual master is the target of each mercenary group to attract and protect. In addition, the number of spiritual masters is not large, and most of them are not too interested in adventure, so except for those who go out according to the requirements of the church In addition to the travelling spiritual master, only Li Jie, a spiritual master who can't stay outside anytime, anywhere.

After treating Shana's injury, Li Jie immediately stood up and walked to the others. After this battle, almost everyone under her leadership was wounded, and some of them were very serious. If it is treated in time, I'm afraid they won't be long before they will call their brothers and brothers with the things they just fell down.

Withdrawing her gaze from Li Jie, Shana realized that Rhode and others were approaching herself. She hurriedly stood up and stretched out her hand with a bit of bitter smile.

"thank you for your help."

"you are welcome."

Holding Shana's outstretched hand, Rod replied calmly,

"This seems to be the second time I thank you."

Shana pulled back her hand, and looked at the young man with surprise and curiosity, smiling. She and Rhode had only met twice, and they were not very familiar with each other. She also just knew that the man saved Li Jie, and then confronted Serek, passing the mercenary rating, and the strength was not weak. But now it looks like ......... this man doesn't seem so simple?

Thinking of this, Shana could not help looking at the two behind Rhodes. The first thing she saw was Marin wearing a gorgeous robe, which made Shana helpless. She knew that the mage was more important than the spirit How can rare careers appear here? And ... standing next to her, isn't that the old Walker who drinks in the association every day?

How did these people come together?

Shana could not help turning her head and glanced at Lijie again, then she looked at Rhode with a little doubt.

"Excuse me, this is ..."

"We are here to complete the task."

Rhode's answer was straightforward and direct.

"Same as you."

"Only four of you?"

"Yes."

If it was changed in Pingyue, Shana would think that Rhodes was talking in a dream. Pavel Cemetery is a very dangerous place, and many mercenary regiments have suffered a lot here. If there are only four people left to be killed, then it is normal logic. But reality told the red-haired female swordsman that it seemed that things were not what she imagined. After all, Rhodes and others did not show the embarrassing escape, and from their perspective, they did not seem to have been attacked.

Could this man be true?

Shana blinked, she couldn't believe this fact anyway, the four of them could actually go to such a deep place? And it seems to be at ease? how can that be? Is this young man really powerful?

While the red-haired female swordsman was thinking about this, Li Jie, who had healed everyone, had returned to Rhodes, and whispered something to Marin, the two seemed to be chatting, but Shana I haven't paid attention to this issue now. Because just then, Rhode's voice sounded.

"What are you going to do next?"

"Next?"

Upon hearing Rhode's inquiry, Shana froze, and then she realized what was happening.

They are completing the task.

And this young man is also completing the task.

So ...

Thinking of this, Shana immediately felt that things had become a little tricky.

Generally, such incidents happen from time to time in the mercenary regiment's mission. After all, there are so many tasks, and anyone can take them before they are completed. Therefore, collisions are not uncommon, and in general, when this situation occurs, mercenary regiments with good relations either choose to concede or choose joint operations. If the relationship is slightly worse, they will fight directly and use their strength to determine the outcome.

So which path do they choose now?

Shana deleted the big hit option from her mind at the first time. Since the other party saved herself, it means that they are not malicious. If she chooses this way again, it is against her principles and tarnished. The dignity of the Red Eagle. But want them to retreat? With so much effort, she lost so many companions, and seeing this step, does she have any choice to retreat? But ... Sana is also very clear that with the current strength of herself and others, there is no way to compete with the necromancer, so ...

"If possible, I hope we can cooperate."

In the end, Shana gritted her teeth and made the suggestion.

"We don't need points, and we don't need loot. In fact, my companion and I came here just for a sword. According to information, it should be next to the necromancer. We hope to work with you as long as Get that sword, then we can give up the rest. "

sword?

Upon hearing Shana's answer, Rhodes froze slightly.

Why didn't he remember that there was a sword in the cemetery?

Did you forget it?

Or is there any other reason?

Rod frowned, thinking for a moment, but didn't get the answer. So he asked directly, asking.

"Miss Shana, I don't remember the association posting this mission."

"We received a private commission."

Shana shook her head slightly and then answered.

That's it.

And hearing Shana's answer, Rhode's inner doubt was relieved at the moment, so he didn't say much, but nodded.

"I can promise you, but I have one condition."
