Chapter 12: The 1023 Squad's Ace in the Hole

The Mongol cavalry was renowned for its archery, and Qian Xing did not dare to forcefully enter the military camp, partly because he had a certain understanding of the power of the historical Mongol cavalry.

Although the horse-headed monster rushed to the 1023 Squad in a breath, in reality, the distance between the centurions and the 1023 Squad was at least 40 meters. It could only be said that the speed of the horse-headed monster was too abnormal, and it must have used some kind of skill.

However, since the 1023 Squad entered the Mongol military camp, they had not seen the cavalry charge towards them. On one hand, this was due to the narrow space inside the camp, which made it difficult for the cavalry to maneuver. On the other hand, it was probably also a task setting of the arena.

Griffith, the giant sword-wielding man, had a white glow flowing on his giant sword, which was as thick as two palms, blocking the red wolf-tooth club's powerful strike.

Griffith immediately retreated three steps, a hint of redness flashing across his fair face.

A series of deep footprints were left on the ground.

The horse-faced protector's strike was not easy to withstand.

At the same time, the long-armed man with a long face, whose arms resembled two iron fists attached to long rubber bands, struck the horse-faced protector heavily.

The long-armed man felt as if he had hit a practice sandbag. His fists, which could easily crush a large stone, were now slightly painful!

The giant sword-wielding man and the long-armed man with a long face barely withstood the heavy hammering of the horse-headed monster. They turned their heads and shouted at the chubby man, who carried a long, cloth-wrapped object on his back: "It's time!"

The chubby man swung his hand behind his shoulder, and an old cloth floated in the air. In his hands, he now held something that made Qian Xing's eyes widen in shock—a vintage rifle!

This rifle was just like the old rifles in the American Western films Qian Xing had seen, the kind that required pulling the bolt after each shot.

The chubby man held the vintage rifle horizontally, in a standing shooting position, aimed at Darba, and pulled the trigger.

A puff of firelight spewed from the muzzle, and the gunshot echoed through the entire military camp.

This, it turned out, was the 1023 Squad's ace in the hole!

Darba, the Great Dharma King's eldest disciple, could easily block a few arrows with his martial arts and skills. However, the speed of a bullet was not comparable to that of an arrow!

A yellow light flashed on Darba's left shoulder, and a small blood flower bloomed.

At the moment he was aimed at, the sense of killing intent made Darba activate his defensive skill, and he dodged to the right. The bullet that should have hit his heart only grazed his shoulder.

As a summoned protector, defending Darba was clearly the highest priority.

The horse-headed monster let out another strange scream, its voice like the clashing of metal, and turned to swing its blood-red wolf-tooth club at the chubby man, who was momentarily stunned by the rifle's recoil.

Seizing the opportunity, the giant sword-wielding man crouched and thrust his sword, slashing deeply into the horse-headed monster's thigh. A shallow wound appeared on the monster's thigh, and black blood oozed from the wound.

The green-haired zombie also seized this opportunity, jumping straight over a distance of more than four meters. Its steel-like iron arms stabbed fiercely into the wound on the horse-headed monster's thigh, which had been slashed by the giant sword.

Clearly, this green-haired zombie was a beast fighter who had entered the arena. The green-scaled monster, whose hands were full of sword-like claws, seemed to be avoiding the horse-headed monster like the plague and was now slaughtering a group of soldiers!

The horse-headed monster, pierced by the green-haired zombie's iron arms, let out a furious scream. Its mouth, full of fangs, opened wide, and a red beam of light, like a dragon's breath, fiercely sprayed onto the green-haired zombie's body!

The green-haired iron zombie was a mid-level zombie form, with higher forms being the bronze-armored zombie, silver-armored zombie, and gold-armored zombie, up to the ultimate form—the golden-haired hou!

Therefore, the points required to exchange for a zombie lineage in the arena were extremely expensive!

However, the green needles on the green-haired iron zombie's body, when sprayed by the red light from the horse-headed monster's mouth, quickly melted like snow meeting boiling water!

The man who had transformed into the green-haired zombie also felt his steel-like zombie body become weak and unable to move!

The blood-red wolf-tooth club, which was originally aimed at the chubby man, fiercely struck the iron arms that were stuck in the horse-headed monster's thigh, unable to be pulled out!

The zombie lineage, which had been exchanged at a great cost, was immediately reduced by half! The iron arms were brutally severed at the shoulders and fell to the ground!

At this moment, many things happened simultaneously.

First, the chubby man's stiffness seemed to have passed. He raised his rifle and aimed at Darba again.

Qian Xing estimated that after the chubby man fired a shot, he was in a state of stiffness for about 4 seconds.

Then, a grayish light appeared above the heads of the remaining five members of the 1023 Squad.

The giant sword-wielding man pointed at the horse-headed protector and roared at the green-scaled monster. The green-scaled monster, seemingly restrained by the grayish light, reluctantly growled and attacked the horse-headed monster.

The horse-headed monster, after breaking the green-haired zombie's arms, opened its huge left hand and grabbed the green-haired zombie by the waist, lifting it towards its blood-red mouth!

The horse-headed protector's true form was also a demon! Therefore, for it, the green-haired zombie, a low-level zombie, was merely food!

The grayish light that appeared above the heads of the remaining 1023 Squad members was a kind of contract, which compelled the green-scaled monster to launch a fierce attack on the horse-headed protector!

The horse-headed protector stuffed the green-haired zombie's legs into its blood-red mouth, biting down. Black, foul-smelling corpse water splattered everywhere, and the green-haired zombie's steel-like legs were chewed with a crunching sound by the sharp, hooked teeth. However, the green-scaled monster's ten sword-like claws were deeply embedded in the horse-headed protector's right knee joint!

Although he could not defeat this high-level demon, his attack significantly reduced the horse-headed monster's mobility!

The cunning humans wanted to bind him with a team contract, but he would not put himself in danger to save the green-haired zombie, who was a human in disguise!

Cunning was an instinct of all abyssal demons!

The first bright blade, carried by the powerful charge of a warhorse, fiercely slashed down at the giant sword-wielding man, who was ready with his sword. The first cavalry charge finally reached the 1023 Squad members!
