There were hundreds of mercenaries gathered together, and any one of them was an elite of the Gilded Brigade. At this moment, they had an absolute advantage in numbers and blocked the holy tree stairs, but they all looked dazed and hesitated.

They did not have the ambition to escort the caravan and stay behind alone when attacked by monsters, nor did they have the courage and fearlessness to wield swords among many monsters and fight against the monsters.

I seem to have become cannon fodder.

The mercenaries who accepted the mysterious commission with unimaginable rewards and received the cooperation of the Order Court were looking forward to the appearance of the Order Officer and the Thirty-Man Group, and loudly reprimanded the Gilded Brigade for gathering and making trouble and driving them away.

Even if only one officer comes, as long as you give us a reason to withdraw, I will flee from Xumi City today, flee far away, and will never come back in the short term. Even if I need to rely on accepting commissions to make a living, I can choose to wait for business hire in places like Huacheng.

Officer, where are you? Where are you? Come on! !

The mercenary with blood on his knife was roaring wildly in his heart, and Hua Yi had already taken a step. 27

27 He obviously did not show his momentum, his face was calm, and there was no murderous aura spreading, as if an ordinary person traveled here to see the scenery on the holy tree, but the mercenary group was constantly retreating, and the human wall that originally stretched across the stairs gradually sank and deformed. It was difficult to maintain and was about to collapse without a fight.

It is not shameful to run away. In the face of a malicious task, there is no reason to insist on the spirit of the contract and fight to the death.

But the mercenaries had to consider the possibility of revenge from the client who obviously had their information.

There was no choice.

This was a conspiracy of the Order of the Lords. The sage wanted the Gilded Brigade to provoke an existence that should never be provoked, and to weaken the power of the desert people! !

A pair of eyes that would not be afraid even in the boundless desert stared at the man who was approaching step by step.

Closer, closer.

Their pupils shrank suddenly, and what they saw was no longer a human figure, but a big mill, a millstone of destruction that was rolling towards them.

What Gilded Brigade elites, top mercenary groups, were just waste materials sandwiched between the Xumi Order of the Lords and the mysterious target, about to be crushed into powder by the two big mills and turned into ashes.

The mercenaries who stood out to block the road were not all the people assigned to the commission. Even if some mercenary groups failed to mobilize all their members to rush to Xumi City, many large teams could not gather more than the hundreds of people who appeared at the moment.

There are still quite a few mercenaries hiding in the dark.

This is the experience summed up by the mercenary group in the fight with monsters. When escorting a caravan through the wilderness, it may encounter monster attacks for several hours in a row. It is not possible to send all the people to fight at once. Some mercenaries must be kept for rotation, so that they can persist longer and respond flexibly when accidents occur.

The axeman of the Gilded Brigade hiding next to the stall had sweat in his palms holding the axe.

We must take advantage of the current situation.With his back to himself, will he throw a flying axe?

The female warriors who used hand axes were fearless in fighting monsters. They could cut through the formation like a sharp knife, disrupt the enemy's position, and create opportunities for their comrades, but looking at Hua Yi's back, they hesitated to move.

The instincts cultivated by countless battles were warning them that they must not act arbitrarily and break the fragile situation.

When their eyes touched the flying, seemingly harmless little blond doll, the mercenaries in the dark found incredulous that the unknown life that looked like a mascot had a dangerous arc at the corner of its mouth.

That smile was... the expression of a hunter waiting for the stupid prey to struggle helplessly!

If we throw this axe and take the initiative to start the battle, we will all die! !

"It seems that Xumi is not all stupid - tell me, who told you to target the human immortals?"

A female voice came to the ears of the axeman in front of the battle. This voice should be light and pleasant, but at this moment it seemed to be suppressing something, making the experienced mercenary feel fear involuntarily.

Turning her head stiffly, the female warrior found that at some point, a girl with red hair like fire was standing next to her, close at hand. The light and shadow around her were abnormally distorted, and there was an invisible flame burning the space.

Hidden under that beautiful face was a terrifying murderous intent. Just a few strands of it made the poor mercenary hiding in the dark unable to move, as if he fell into an ice cave, and even his thoughts were stagnant.

Yaksha, the fairy beast of Liyue, is fierce and fierce in nature, killing and protecting the law.

Fire Rat General Yingda had to try to control the violent emotions surging in his heart, lest he set the holy tree on fire and plunge the entire Xumi City into a sea of ​​fire.

Next to him, General Fa Nan of the spiral scroll was as cold as ice for ten thousand years, and his tone was icy.

"We are now in a dream controlled by the void. That is something managed by the Order Court. I also feel that its essence is related to the gods. Either the Order Court wants to harm the human immortal concession, or..."

"Or is it the Xumi Grass God? Humph, it's nothing more than the war between the demons and gods, and the battle against the demons in Xumi."

Yingda took a deep breath, and seeing that these mercenaries still had some brains and did not make any substantial moves to offend the human immortal concession, he temporarily resisted the urge to kill everything with fire.

Since it is a dream, there will be no real death. Can the Xumi Sage who controls the void treat the mercenaries as consumables, constantly resurrect them in the dream at the cost of losing their spirit, and delay Hua Yi?

Even if it is impossible to achieve true infinite rebirth, after experiencing several deaths, even the most determined mercenaries will face the danger of mental collapse. Can they achieve their goal by delaying time?

Self-righteous.

The means of the Three-Eyed Five-Manifestation Immortal have long surpassed common sense. They have the [Sleepwalking in Various Realms] that can capture people's souls. If they use their immortal power at this moment, they can directly attack the main body from the dream and destroy the target's body and soul.

"Lisa, just knock them down."

Hua Yi does not intend to embarrass these mercenaries who were calculated by the sages of the Order Academy.Since you have the wisdom to judge the situation, you should have a way to survive.

"Yes."

The librarian nodded, and raised her soft hand in black silk gloves, which actually caused heavy thunderclouds to gather in the air in this area, blocking the sunlight. There was no need to deliberately brew, and purple lightning struck in an instant.

Thunder!

The mercenaries were facing a great enemy, but the mighty power that seemed to be a punishment from heaven did not give them any chance to dodge. The blazing lightning flashed, and hundreds of small thunderbolts accurately locked onto everyone present and fell straight down.

Boom boom boom...

Not a single one was left out, and the human wall that blocked the holy tree stairs collapsed and lay neatly. .
