Chapter 406 Night Battle at the Lu Family Compound, Knights of the Round Table Splatter Blood Three Feet High
Darkness engulfed the entire courtyard.
Lu Zhenguo stood on the steps with the teapot in his hand, not even blinking.
The bishop held up the cross, and the scriptures he recited became increasingly urgent.
Qin Zheng lay prone on the roof, his eyes pressed against the night vision goggles, his finger on the trigger.
"Brigade Commander, I can see them."
Lu Jingyan's voice came through the walkie-talkie, and it was very cold.
"beat."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a barrage of gunfire erupted in the courtyard.
Bullets rained down, and flashes of light flickered in the darkness.
Two dark figures charged ahead, bursting into clouds of blood mist from their bodies.
Their clothes were torn to shreds, and their bodies were covered in blood.
But they didn't fall.
The two men, covered in blood and with ferocious smiles on their faces, continued to charge forward like two wild beasts.
Qin Zheng gasped.
"Damn it, those two monsters!"
One of them was as big as a bear, with bulging muscles and bloodshot eyes.
He rushed to the Thunder Shield team members and grabbed the edge of the riot shield with his hand.
The team members gripped their shields tightly, the veins on their arms bulging.
But the person only gave it a light tug.
With a snap.
The shield was torn in two.
The team member was stunned and hadn't reacted when the man punched him in the chest.
The team member was sent flying and crashed into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Third brother!"
Qin Zheng jumped off the roof, rolled on the ground, and rushed to the man.
He pulled out his bayonet and stabbed the man in the neck.
The man raised his arm to block, but the blade struck his skin, leaving only a shallow bloodstain.
Qin Zheng's expression changed.
"Damn, the skin is so tough."
The man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Kid, you're dead meat."
He raised his fist and smashed it down on Qin Zheng's head.
Qin Zheng dodged to the side and stabbed the man under the armpit with a backhand.
The man groaned and spat out blood.
Qin Zheng drew his knife and plunged it into the man's groin.
The man finally collapsed, but he didn't die. He lunged at Qin Zheng and bit him.
Qin Zheng was a step too slow to dodge; his shoulder was bitten, and a piece of flesh was torn off.
"ah!"
Qin Zheng broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, raised his knife, and stabbed it into the man's eye.
The person finally stopped moving.
Qin Zheng clutched his shoulder, panting heavily.
"Damn it, is this even human?"
On the other side, the bishop stood in the center of the courtyard, the cross in his hand emitting a faint light.
He was chanting scriptures, and his voice grew louder and louder.
Several Thunder Shield members rushed over with guns in hand, but halfway there, their movements suddenly slowed down.
Their eyes became unfocused, as if they were being controlled by something.
Lu Jingyan emerged from the shadows, gun in hand, and fired several shots into the legs of the team members.
The team member fell to the ground, clutching his leg and screaming in pain.
"brigadier……"
"Stop talking nonsense." Lu Jingyan walked over and kicked them in the face.
Several team members fainted.
The bishop looked at Lu Jingyan, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"You weren't hypnotized?"
Lu Jingyan didn't say anything, but raised his gun and fired three shots at him.
The bishop dodged to the side, the cross held in front of his chest.
The bullet hit the cross, exploding into several sparks.
The bishop smiled.
"It's no use, this is God's protection."
Lu Jingyan threw away his gun and drew his military dagger from his waist.
"I don't believe in God."
He rushed forward, the tip of his knife aimed straight for the bishop's throat.
The bishop raised the cross to block the blow.
The tip of the knife grazed the cross, leaving a bloody mark on his face.
The bishop took two steps back, raised his hand, and touched the blood on his face.
You've angered me.
He threw away the cross and pulled two daggers from his sleeve.
The dagger's blade was thin, reflecting the moonlight.
Lu Jingyan narrowed his eyes.
"bring it on."
The two lunged at each other.
Blades clashed, sparks flew.
Lu Jingyan slashed at the bishop's neck, but the bishop dodged to the side and stabbed him in the waist with a backhand.
Lu Jingyan raised his arm to block, but the tip of the knife pierced his arm, and blood flowed out.
He ignored it, and with a backhand slash, he struck the bishop on the shoulder.
The bishop grunted and took two steps back.
Lu Jingyan gave him no chance to catch his breath, rushed forward, and slashed at his head with a knife.
The bishop raised his dagger to block, and the two knives clashed.
Lu Jingyan gave the bishop a hard push, and the bishop was pushed back several steps.
Lu Jingyan seized the opportunity to step forward and kick him in the chest.
The bishop fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Jingyan walked over and stepped on his chest.
"You lost."
He raised his knife and slashed at the bishop's neck.
The bishop's head rolled to one side, spraying blood all over the ground.
Lu Jingyan stood there, panting heavily, his face covered in blood.
On the second-floor balcony, Su Wantang held a crossbow, her eyes fixed on the courtyard.
She saw a dark figure emerge from the shadows; it was tall and walked with a steady gait.
The man's face was clearly visible in the moonlight.
It is Lu Jingyan.
But Su Wantang frowned.
wrong.
Lu Jingyan should be at the entrance of the main hall right now, why is he there?
She squinted and looked closely at the person.
The person's face was indeed Lu Jingyan's, but his walking posture was wrong.
When Lu Jingyan walks, his left leg turns slightly outward, a habit he developed during his military training.
But this person walks with perfect posture, without any problems.
Su Wantang's heart tightened.
He is an actor.
She immediately raised her crossbow and aimed it at the man.
The person continued walking forward, completely unaware of the danger.
Su Wantang pulled the trigger.
The crossbow bolt flew out, drawing an arc in the air.
One arrow struck the man's heart, another his throat, and yet another his forehead.
The three arrows flew past in a triangular formation.
The man reacted quickly, twisting his body to dodge the arrow aimed at his heart.
But the other two arrows couldn't be dodged.
One arrow pierced his throat, another his forehead.
The man froze, stopping in his tracks.
He raised his hand and touched the arrow in his throat, his face full of disbelief.
"You...how..."
Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed to the ground.
The poison in the arrow took effect; his skin turned bluish-purple, and he coughed up black blood.
Su Wantang put down the crossbow and took a deep breath.
At the entrance of the main hall, Lu Jingyan walked out and looked at the corpse on the ground.
He looked up at the second-floor balcony.
Su Wantang stood there, holding a crossbow in her hand.
The two exchanged a glance.
Lu Jingyan nodded to her.
Su Wantang nodded as well.
Lu Jingyan turned around and rushed towards another dark figure in the courtyard.
The man was grappling with the Thunder Shield team members, moving quickly and slippery like an eel.
Lu Jingyan rushed over and slashed at the man's back with his knife.
Hearing the sound of the wind, the man dodged to the side and threw a punch at Lu Jingyan.
Lu Jingyan raised his arm to block, grabbed the man's wrist, and twisted it forcefully.
With a snap.
The man's arm was broken.
He screamed and knelt on the ground.
Lu Jingyan raised his knife and slashed at his neck.
Blood spurted out and spilled onto the ground.
The number of enemies in the courtyard is decreasing.
Thunder Shield members rushed out from all corners to finish off the attackers.
Soon, only one person remained in the courtyard.
The man stood in the corner, wearing a black cloak.
He looked at the corpses scattered on the ground, his face expressionless.
Lu Jingyan, holding a gun, walked up to him.
"Who are you"
The man raised his head, revealing a pale face.
His eyes were large, with gray pupils.
"My name is Alchemist."
He took a green glass bottle out of his cloak.
As soon as he finished speaking, the alchemist threw the bottle toward the main building.
Lu Jingyan covered his mouth and nose and stepped back.
"Wantang!"
