Chapter 643: Leap
North Tivian, Cathedral District.
Under the gloomy sky, outside the scripture building of the Chant Church, an unfair battle was going on. Facing the Glowing Front with powerful firepower pressure, the three "Cup"-level Beyonders from the Afterbirth Cult were suppressed. After suffering a lot of wounds, the werewolf Brand finally found an opportunity and used the flying stones produced by hitting the ground to injure a large number of mortal soldiers on the front line, which suddenly reduced the firepower pressure of the front line.
Upon seeing this, Brand and Vaughn immediately launched a roaring attack towards the Glowing Position. Upon seeing this, the two Blazing Monks on the Glowing Position immediately ignited their swords with flames, and with the blessing of power given by the Grace Priest, they stepped out of the line and attacked the rushing wolves.
The reduction in the pressure of gunfire also gave Sander, who had been unable to move for several days, a chance to catch his breath. Looking at the glow position in front of him, Sander, who was covered in blood, froze in his expression. Then, a group of red-eyed rats emerged from the rainwater drainage outlet not far from the glow position, chirping!
These were the rats that Sander had arranged long ago to be stored in the sewers of the church area. They were his spies for scouting the Chant Church. Now he was using these rats to launch a sneak attack on the Huiguang position, attacking them from behind.
However, as Extraordinary beings of the “Light”, the perception abilities of the church members on the position were not vegetarian. When the rat group approached the position, they had already discovered the abnormality and alerted the others around them to the existence of the rat group.
However, the two Burning Flame Monks in the current position have already gone to face the werewolves that have broken out of the formation. Faced with a large number of rats, they temporarily lack effective means of clearing them out. However, the Church of the Immortals is wealthy and powerful, and they have enough extraordinary items to make up for the lack of extraordinary abilities.
Facing the rat swarm, many soldiers in many positions directly took out iron throwing objects that integrated talismans and spiritual storage items and threw them in the direction of the rat swarm. After the throwing objects touched the ground, they quickly exploded, sweeping out a large area of flames, engulfing all the rats carrying fatal diseases in the range in one breath. Those rats struggled in pain in the flames, and finally fell to the ground after being burned.
The surprise attack launched by Sander was thwarted. At this time, the soldiers who were originally injured and fell to the ground on the Glowing Position had basically recovered completely under the healing of extraordinary abilities. They returned to their posts and maneuvered their weapons, pointing the muzzles of their machine guns forward.
After receiving the signal, the two Burning Monks who were fighting with the werewolves paid the price of having their sturdy plate armor almost completely destroyed by the werewolves' claws. They quickly drew a wall of fire and retreated, gaining a great advantage in close combat. The werewolves who had been suppressing the Burning Monks wanted to continue their pursuit, but what they saw after they bypassed the wall of fire were countless black gun muzzles pointed at them.
Suddenly, there was another burst of gunfire in front of the Forbidden Library. The machine guns on the position roared and opened fire again under the control of the wounded soldiers. For a moment, tons of metal bullets poured out like raindrops in front of the position. Large pieces of blood exploded on the bodies of the two werewolves again, completely hindering their surprise attack. Under the hail of bullets and the fire attack of the Burning Monk, they could not help but flee everywhere again, looking for shelter to hide.
Unlike many secret organizations that only consist of Extraordinary People, for large organizations such as the Church and the country, mortal armed forces are also an important part of the organization's armed forces... especially grassroots armed forces. The armies of the Church and the country will specially train mixed units of Extraordinary People and mortal soldiers. Usually, Extraordinary People will protect mortal troops and use high-powered weapons to attack them, creating output space for mortal troops under the endless harassment of Extraordinary People.
If such mixed forces cooperate well, they can play a great role in the front battlefield. Even if the number and rank of the extraordinary people are slightly inferior, they can rely on the cooperation with the mortal troops to gain an overall advantage. More importantly, because a large number of attacks are borne by the mortal troops, the spiritual consumption of the extraordinary people is greatly reduced, which has a great advantage in protracted wars compared to the secret organizations that usually only rely on extraordinary people. This is also one of the reasons why almost all secret organizations are reluctant to challenge the official extraordinary organizations head-on.
For example, at present, the three Creatures of the Afterbirth were suppressed by the Glow's troops and had almost no ability to resist. They suffered a lot of damage. These three Creatures were almost unable to cause effective damage to the Glow's position. Although the opponent's Creature-level Extraordinary people were no less than their own, if this was a pure battle between Extraordinary people, they would not be so miserable. As the Creature with the strongest frontal killing ability among all Extraordinary branches, the werewolf can cause considerable damage in a frontal melee.
The current situation is that a lot of the werewolf's spirituality is wasted on healing the wounds caused by bullets, and it is even unable to exchange spirituality with the extraordinary people of the Radiance on a one-to-one basis. It is impossible to fight injury with injury or life with life, and can only be suppressed unilaterally. It uses precious spirituality to continuously recover from injuries. If this continues, the werewolf's spirituality will be exhausted and the consumption of the Radiance will be very small. It is really a great profit for the Radiance to exchange bullets for spirituality.
"Damn it... there's nothing I can do..."
Facing the pressure of gunfire and hail of bullets, Brand, who was constantly fleeing, found that he was slowly falling into a desperate situation. In this situation, he finally did not care about too many other things and prepared to use the final means.
Taking advantage of a gap, Brandt retched and spat out something from his big mouth and grabbed it in his claws. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a test tube with some dark red liquid in it.
After getting the test tube, Brand threw it towards the glowing position without hesitation. The sharpshooter with a "lamp" in the glowing position discovered Brand's abnormality and immediately raised his hand and fired a shot. The bullet broke the test tube that was still in the air, and the liquid inside splashed all over the place and fell to the ground.
Then, a pungent smell dissipated from the air. After seeing this, Brand breathed a sigh of relief. Now all he could do was to wait.
…
In the far northern suburbs of Tivian, somewhere in a vast forest, Duval, wearing a black raincoat, was standing alone, staring at the distant sky. When his extraordinary sense of smell, which was so powerful that it defied logic, detected the change in the smell in the distance, he received such a signal.
The mark has been drawn, the situation is critical, and he must take action.
After interpreting the signal, Duval finally began his own movements. With the surge of spiritual energy in his body, his body began to undergo drastic changes.
“Ka-ka-ka-ka…”
With a strange sound of muscle squirming, Duval's physique began to swell exaggeratedly. His growing muscles burst through the black raincoat, revealing dark hair. His wiry teeth turned into fangs, his nails into claws, and his face bulged out in an extremely exaggerated way. Duval began his transformation into a wolf.
Growing bigger... growing bigger... growing bigger... after he began to transform into a wolf, Duval's physique continued to expand uncontrollably, two meters, three meters, four meters... eight meters, nine meters, ten meters... Duval's body expanded to about ten meters and continued to grow, and finally his entire body expanded to about twelve or thirteen meters before he stopped.
