Chapter 13 Autumn

Brother Qiu was the leader of the Eagle Regiment’s third squad, a berserker ranked seventh on the warrior charts. He took the name “Brother Qiu” purely out of spite, hoping people would be forced to call him “brother” when they called his name. But contrary to his wishes, the reality was that because of this name, fewer and fewer people were willing to call him brother... Actually, it didn't have much to do with the name. The key was that Brother Qiu always showed off his pride in being a brother after being called "Brother Qiu," so he never was a brother again. Even the other nine subordinates in his third squad didn't call him brother, even though he was undeniably the top brother in the group, regardless of level or age, but...

"Qiu B!" Someone beside him called Brother Qiu. This was Brother Qiu's new name in the Eagle Regiment, a name that was almost an insult, which made him very depressed. But the more he resisted, the more people liked to call him that. It seemed to be the opposite of his psychology of calling himself Brother Qiu but others refusing to call him brother.

"Get lost, call me brother!" But Brother Qiu never gave up resisting.

"Brother your sister. Tell me, will we get overtime pay for this overtime?" The guy who called Brother Qiu "Qiu B" said. This player was called Temporary Execution, a name like a killer, but was actually a光明牧师 (Guangming Mushi, Light Priest), ranked twelfth on the priest charts.

"How would I know?" Brother Qiu replied. The argument about names ended in two rounds. This was already a fixed pattern: someone called out, Brother Qiu resisted, and then they said what they had to say.

"I heard Dou Qing, Liu Lan, Xi San, and Shiba are all dead..." Temporary Execution said.

"They are dead. Xi San is still in jail right now," Brother Qiu said.

"What reinforcements did the other side bring?" With the strength of their Eagle Regiment, it had never happened that four people had been lost at once. Moreover, Liu Lan, Ba Yi Xi San, and Shiba were all speed-type characters. They could always run away if they couldn't win, so it was obviously more difficult to kill them.

"I heard that people from Yunduan City came. Qianli Yizui, and Piaoliu also came, and there should be other experts," Brother Qiu, as the squad leader, had seriously inquired about a lot of information from Yongyuan in private. In the mercenary group's channel, Yongyuan only briefly mentioned the current situation and what the boss needed everyone to do.

"Is that Piaoliu?" Temporary Execution asked.

"Which other Piaoliu could it be," Brother Qiu said.

"Then there are only three of us... Is this okay?" Temporary Execution was a little uneasy.

"We've already scouted out the location of the other side's experts. What we have to face are just four ordinary players from the Ten Guild Alliance. And even if there are difficult experts, there's no need to be afraid. We don't have to fight to the death with them. If the situation is wrong, rushing into the warehouse is also considered completing the mission. In short, kill if you can, and if the situation is wrong, hide in the room." Brother Qiu, who could be a squad leader, was a calm guy who could make judgments even though his naming sense was wretched.

The third player with Brother Qiu and Temporary Execution was called Hengwen, ranked fourteenth on the mage charts. He was originally right next to Dou Qing Wan, but now that Dou Qing Wan was hung up in who-knows-where, even though he had risen to thirteenth place, he wasn't happy at all. He had a very good relationship with Dou Qing Wan, and he was expressing his condolences at this time, so he didn't participate much in the discussion between Brother Qiu and Temporary Execution.

"Uh, it seems like this is the street," Brother Qiu said, looking at the address in his hand. Their Eagle Regiment usually only gathered on the rooftop of the warehouse in Caomang City. To avoid suspicion, they rarely went inside even though they had permission, so naturally, they didn't know where the warehouses in other main cities were. At this time, they were also looking for it all the way with the address in hand. Brother Qiu and the others were close, they got the teleportation scroll for that city and teleported over, and they were on the street after walking only a few steps.

"B17, B17..." Brother Qiu muttered the house number, looking for it all the way. Temporary Execution carefully observed the surrounding situation, and Hengwen also stopped chatting with Dou Qing Wan, gripping his staff tightly behind the two.

"12, 13..." Brother Qiu counted, extending his gaze, and he had already seen what he estimated to be the location of house number B17, a building that looked like the building in Caomang City, very much in the style of an English warehouse, and under that building, there were indeed four people leaning against the wall, blocking the door, looking around left and right. At this time, there was no one else on the street, and the other party's gaze had already fallen accurately on the three of them, and the weapons in their hands were also clenched.

Brother Qiu and the other two continued walking towards them without showing any signs, and after getting closer, the Appraisal Technique had already been cast on each of them. Temporary Execution breathed a sigh of relief: "It doesn't seem to be too difficult."

"I told you," Brother Qiu said, "Hengwen, get ready."

Hengwen didn't say a word, and with a lift of the staff in his hand, he began chanting. However, what he summoned was not the two major flame area spells that were most commonly used. Hengwen shouted, "Ice Peak Forest," and a series of "bang bang bang" sounds, like ice breaking, suddenly came from a circle on the street. But the result was that ice cones flashed and rose from the ground, and a gloomy aura permeated, and the air seemed to have been infiltrated into a cold, thin blue and white color.

The four players had participated in the frontal battle with the thirty members of the Eagle Regiment, but they hadn't seen the mages of the Eagle Regiment use such a spell at that time. The four didn't know the power of this spell, what special use it had, and they were just carefully avoiding the ice cones drilling out from under their feet, while thinking about rushing out of this area with a forest of ice cones growing out.

Who would have thought that Hengwen's staff would swing flat again, shouting "Break!" and the protruding ice cones suddenly burst open, and small ice slags splashed at high speed. The four people couldn't avoid such tiny and dense ice slags at all. The ice slags hit their bodies, and the damage accumulated little by little. The lives of the four were constantly declining, and at the moment when the ice cones broke open, the freezing effect of the ice spell also occurred, and the actions of the four were greatly slowed down. One of the four, a priest, wanted to quickly recover, but his every move was slow, and he was naturally very surprised by the percentage of this freezing effect. After finally aiming the staff at the target, the shattering attack of the ice cones was uninterrupted, and every small ice slag that hit was considered damage. Under such circumstances, the spell was constantly interrupted, and it couldn't be cast at all.

Hengwen was expressionless outside the circle, and Brother Qiu had no intention of making a move. Temporary Execution also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "It's really not that difficult."

"The difficulty is here!" Suddenly a voice came from behind the three, and the three were shocked to look back, but they saw a black-robed mage standing behind them at some point.

"Qianli Yizui?" Brother Qiu exclaimed. Qianli Yizui suddenly disappeared, and with a flash, he appeared in the gap between the three, twisting his body and swinging his sword, ruthlessly slashing a Turning Double Flame Slash at the three.

"Whirlwind Slash!!" Brother Qiu also shouted loudly. Seeing that the Double Flame Slash was unavoidable, he even used a skill attack to try to exchange blood with the opponent.

Gu Fei didn't expect this guy to be so calm in his judgment and so quick in his reaction. His Turning Double Flame Slash had just hit one person, but in any case, he didn't dare to fight head-on with the whirlwind slash of the opposing warrior. He immediately took a step back to withdraw from the circle. Unexpectedly, Hengwen and Temporary Execution also took half a step back, which blocked Gu Fei's retreat, and they were out of the whirlwind slash's range.

There was still room left and right for Gu Fei, but the accurately judging Gu Fei knew that this was a trap. His retreat was blocked, and the remaining time was definitely not enough for him to dodge to the left or right again. With no room to dodge, Gu Fei immediately held up his sword to block forward...

Gu Fei hadn't used this rough way of blocking the whirlwind slash for a long time, and for the whirlwind slash of a berserker who wielded swords with both hands, this block required even faster and more accurate movements!

In a moment of life and death, Gu Fei finally did it. The 暗夜流光剑 (Anye Liuguang Jian, Dark Night Flowing Light Sword) accurately and timely knocked into Brother Qiu's sword a moment before the whirlwind slash hit his body. Gu Fei knew that the power and skill power of this top expert must be extraordinary. He desperately gripped the sword, and at the moment when the power came, he immediately released his strength and flew backward.

This release was not thorough, after all, Brother Qiu's whirlwind slash's strength and speed were beyond what ordinary players could compare to. Using four ounces to move a thousand pounds was just a figurative description. In fact, to use this technique, one's own strength must also be to a certain degree, and Brother Qiu's whirlwind slash under this luxurious equipment was somewhat beyond the limit that Gu Fei's current strength could handle.

But, it wasn't enough to be completely hit! Gu Fei had already judged this point in his heart. The 暗夜流光剑 (Anye Liuguang Jian, Dark Night Flowing Light Sword) was bounced open by Brother Qiu's whirlwind slash, but only a bit of sword wind brushed past Gu Fei's body. Gu Fei had already borrowed the power of this bounce to fly backward, and unceremoniously crashed into Temporary Execution who was behind him diagonally.

Temporary Execution had no strength, let alone the skill to dissolve strength. Gu Fei brought the force of the whirlwind slash and crashed into him. Temporary Execution stumbled back several steps and fell to the ground on his back. Before he could react, he saw a black figure getting closer and closer, getting bigger and bigger, resolutely using him as a meat shield.

This wasn't over yet. How professional was Gu Fei's fighting awareness! Even in this situation, he didn't miss any opportunity to attack. At the moment of falling onto Temporary Execution, he held the 暗夜流光剑 (Anye Liuguang Jian, Dark Night Flowing Light Sword) backwards and stabbed it into Temporary Execution's waist.

This was just a normal attack, the task wasn't too high. When Gu Fei fell, his feet were still on the ground, and his body fell onto Temporary Execution. He immediately borrowed this force, his feet grabbed the ground, his waist twisted, and he bounced up.

This bounce startled Hengwen. Everything happened so quickly. At that time, he was behind Qianli Yizui, and he didn't see what technique Gu Fei used. He just thought that he was blown away by the whirlwind slash. Although it was a bit strange from the physical principle of the direction of the force that he would crash into Temporary Execution, Hengwen didn't think much about it at that moment.

Seeing Temporary Execution fall first and Qianli Yizui fall later, he only thought that it was an excellent attack opportunity. He raised his staff and was about to hit Gu Fei. Who would have thought that the just fallen Gu Fei would be like a spring, and in just a moment, he had bounced up again, and the sword light flashed, hitting him, Hengwen.

Hengwen's 連珠火球 (Lian Zhu Huo Qiu, Chain Fireball) had already been chanted and only the last was left. He resolutely sent it out. At such a close distance, he felt that no one could dodge it, but Gu Fei could. The body that bounced up suddenly flipped in the air again, actually flipping over the 連珠火球 (Lian Zhu Huo Qiu, Chain Fireball).

Hengwen's 連珠火球 (Lian Zhu Huo Qiu, Chain Fireball) was originally used against Gu Fei who fell to the ground, the angle was downward, and of course it didn't fly high. Gu Fei flipped over, but the sword in his hand didn't slack off. A dark light flashed, and Hengwen only felt a chill on his neck. Although it was just a normal attack and the damage was not great, the feeling at that moment made Hengwen feel terrified. He almost thought he was a dead man.

Hengwen was not dead yet, but Temporary Execution was almost angered to death. Gu Fei flipped over the 連珠火球 (Lian Zhu Huo Qiu, Chain Fireball), but the 連珠火球 (Lian Zhu Huo Qiu, Chain Fireball) still had to fly forward, and as a result, it exploded all over the face of Temporary Execution who was lying there on his back.

Temporary Execution opened his mouth and wanted to curse, but when he turned his gaze, he saw that Hengwen was already being killed by Qianli Yizui in a panic. Under close attack, Hengwen couldn't use a spell, and his eyes were full of begging for help. Temporary Execution quickly took the staff and wanted to recover Hengwen, but Qianli Yizui didn't look back, but seemed to know his actions. This step crossed over...

"Fuck!!" Temporary Execution and these experts cast skills really fast and accurate, and Gu Fei's step was also accurately shameless. This recovery spell of Temporary Execution actually landed on Gu Fei's body.

"Thank you." Gu Fei even turned his head and smiled at Temporary Execution. Hengwen's life was sliding very fast under Gu Fei's storm-like barrage. After all, he was a mage, and the physical attack of the 暗夜流光剑 (Anye Liuguang Jian, Dark Night Flowing Light Sword) was still reflected on his body, and the speed of Gu Fei's attack made Hengwen dizzy and want to vomit.

Fast... everything can only be described with one word "fast". From Gu Fei being knocked away, to bouncing up again, to launching an attack on Temporary Execution, everything was so fast. When Brother Qiu stopped the whirlwind slash, it was already the moment when Gu Fei bounced up, flipped over the 連珠火球 (Lian Zhu Huo Qiu, Chain Fireball), and wiped Hengwen's neck with a sword.

Brother Qiu quickly wanted to come up to rescue, but he forgot that Gu Fei was not fighting alone. Although the four members of the Ten Guild Alliance were restrained by Hengwen's skill as soon as they came up, it was because this was an unfamiliar skill that they had never dealt with. They may not be able to compare with the experts of the Eagle Regiment in terms of equipment and technology, but they also have a ruthless energy of their own. At this time, they had already broken through Hengwen's skill and rushed out, regardless of how much life they had left. The four had rushed up to Brother Qiu with gnashing teeth. Their judgment of the situation was still relatively accurate.

Brother Qiu had to turn around and respond to the enemy. And Hengwen wanted to be saved, the opportunity was in this moment. Brother Qiu couldn't free up his hands, and Gu Fei had already used his skills and ultimate moves. Double Flame Slash, Palm Thunder, and even a lightning bolt from the sky...

After finally climbing up from the ground and finding space to suddenly recover Hengwen, Temporary Execution saw a white light, but it was not the white light of his recovery falling on Hengwen's head, but the white light of Hengwen's death disappearing.

"Too slow..." Gu Fei smiled and glanced at him, but ignored him, instead rushing to the siege of Brother Qiu, and winked at the four people: "You go deal with him."

Although there were priests among the four, everyone had experienced Hengwen's skill, and their lives were not complete. Brother Qiu's damage was terrible again, and in a short while, one person was about to hang up. Gu Fei's appearance was timely, and the four obediently withdrew. Brother Qiu rushed out with a charge regardless of everything. Although Gu Fei attacked him, besieging Wei to rescue Zhao (围魏救赵) in online games was not so effective. Brother Qiu completely ignored Gu Fei's sword, stubbornly hanging up the player with little life left.

The other three didn't care much, and rushed to Temporary Execution, obviously trying to settle the hatred on Temporary Execution. No matter how skilled Temporary Execution was, he was just a priest. Facing the siege, he could only use his recovery skills to support himself. At this time, the only hope seemed to be that Brother Qiu would defeat Qianli Yizui to help him out...

But, how could anyone defeat Gu Fei in a one-on-one? Brother Qiu had already exerted 200% of the skills he had trained in online games, but he couldn't do anything about Gu Fei. Although Gu Fei's sword seemed not too scary when it stabbed his armor. But when the skill cooldown ended and the Double Flame Slash was split, Brother Qiu looked towards Temporary Execution with anticipation...

How could Temporary Execution not know that Brother Qiu needed his recovery, but at this time, he was already overwhelmed, and if he freed up a skill to replenish Brother Qiu, could he hold on?

This was a difficult decision... Temporary Execution estimated his technology, and at this time, he could only help one person to support. Temporary Execution made this difficult decision in only two seconds. He gritted his teeth and a recovery spell landed on Brother Qiu, shouting: "Enter the warehouse!!!"

Brother Qiu understood what Temporary Execution meant, because this was the decision he made before the battle: kill if you can, and if the situation is wrong, flash into the house...

Brother Qiu was very regretful at this time, why wasn't his decision to flash into the house directly regardless of anything? If that were the case, maybe they had already broken into the house. Those four players couldn't stop the three of them from rushing to kill, but with Qianli Yizui coming, the situation turned around immediately. At this time, Temporary Execution was forced to the opposite wall. It was no longer possible for him to approach the warehouse. At this time, he could only rely on himself to rush in, and Temporary Execution could only be sacrificed...

For Brother Qiu, this decision was also difficult, but he had no other choice. Temporary Execution had already applied a decisive recovery spell to him, and he was only helping him to hold back the three people.

"Ah!!!" Brother Qiu roared, aimed at the direction of the warehouse door, and rushed to charge. Brother Qiu believed that even Qianli Yizui would not be able to stop his charge. As long as he reached the door, he could rush in even if he withstand two attacks from Qianli Yizui.

Qianli Yizui was indeed unable to stop the sharpness of the charge. In Brother Qiu's eyes, there was only the closed door. Suddenly, he felt a sinking feeling in his abdomen, and an irresistible thrust had already struck. He could no longer continue to rush forward...
