The professionals who came with He Xi were all elites in the city. Apart from the remaining five chosen ones who were a bit troublesome, dealing with the other believers was a piece of cake.
"High health, high armor, high attack, low mobility, skills unknown." A man holding a carved bow, positioned at the back, relayed the information he had gathered to his teammates.
He clearly also has skills similar to information gathering.
I don't know if archers have this skill by default or if they also have information gathering skills like Liu Nian.
No one would be happy to hear that their entire fortune has been turned upside down!
No wonder he gave Liu Nian a warning when she was looking at the mysterious shop owner.
It must be said that the person who stole the information was truly sarcastic. The five chosen ones, as if they had made a pact, stuck to the archer and refused to let go, breaking free from the entanglement of the surrounding security team and charging towards him.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining professionals quickly used all their skills to block the archers and force the chosen ones to stop.
They are all level six or higher professionals, and their weapons are quite good. Even the Chosen One should think carefully about whether to continue the pursuit.
The archer seemed unfazed by the situation, calmly taking a few steps back, aiming at an agitated chosen one, and using his skill to exploit the weakness.
Weakness Shot: Locates the target's weak point, dealing weapon damage + x points of damage. This attack has a 50% increased critical hit rate and a 50% increased critical hit damage. (x represents the skill level bonus.)
As a second-tier skill, it has to be said that this is really powerful.
He nocked an arrow and shot it out with a whoosh, aiming at the chosen one who was standing to the side.
The five chosen ones who had initially stopped could no longer contain themselves upon seeing this and charged towards the group of professionals.
The arrows darted into the gaps in the Chosen One's armor, piercing into the flesh. Even the thick-skinned Chosen One couldn't help but scream in pain, apparently due to the skill's critical hit damage.
Not only that, the wound also had a bleeding effect, I wonder if it was due to the serrated arrow.
The chosen one swung his arm, which immediately aggravated the wound, causing a piercing pain.
Moreover, the lack of arrow shafts embedded in flesh greatly hinders movement.
He gritted his teeth and, enduring the pain, broke off the part of the arrow shaft that hadn't penetrated his flesh and threw it on the ground.
He glared at the archer, as if trying to memorize his face.
Unfortunately, the other chosen ones didn't give him much time to hold a grudge, and a dozen or so professionals slowly separated them.
He now faces an attack from two professionals, with an archer he dislikes lurking in the distance.
Prioritizing the resolution of the weakest link is a principle that applies everywhere.
If you don't like hearing that, then change it to "beating a dog when it's down."
However, he shouldn't be considered the weakest link; it's the ordinary believers.
Without the chosen one leading the charge, the remaining believers were no match for the security team members and were dealt with one by one by the remaining security team members.
After dealing with the group of believers, the security team dispersed on the perimeter, forming a loose encirclement.
He surrounded both professionals and chosen ones, while he sat on the outside recovering his strength.
At this moment, He Xi, who had just finished dealing with the divine messenger, also rushed over from above. Under his leadership, the remaining chosen ones were wiped out before they could put up a fight for long.
After letting everyone rest for a while, He Xi stood in the center of the crowd to encourage them.
"Everyone, try to find the missing transport team members. Once we've found them, let's get out of this godforsaken place as soon as possible. When we get back, I'll treat you all to roasted pig liver."
After a cheer from the crowd, they began to wait for their assignments.
The pile of corpses was huge, and searching it all together would be a waste of time, especially since it was confirmed that the group of cultists had been killed.
Therefore, it was ultimately decided that the police would search half of the group, while other professionals would search the other half, forming two groups of members.
Li Ya and He Xi, as the team leaders, each took charge of one side, and finally met up on the other side of the pile of corpses.
After the discussion, Li Ya began to assign the security team members to groups of three and to walk towards the pile of corpses from different directions.
He Xi brought a small group; the professionals went in pairs into the other side of the pile of corpses to search.
From above the mass grave, the torches were scattered in all directions from the pile of corpses toward the center.
Fortunately, Li Ya and his group had already searched part of the area when they arrived, but they stopped searching after encountering the cultists.
Now, when you search again, you only need to search the latter half, which is quite efficient.
After leaving the pile of corpses, both groups gradually regrouped.
Of course, they ultimately found no living people in the mass grave.
But there's no need to search anymore; the bright red footprints on the ground are the guide.
Looking at the dense footprints left on the ground, it seems that countless people have walked back and forth here.
The group followed the footprints forward, and it was the same archer who noticed the unusual thing on the tree branch in the distance.
He ran over quickly, and a moment later he returned with a blood-stained rag in his hand.
The crowd looked at the strip of cloth in his hand, almost soaked in blood, as if something was blocking his throat, making him unable to speak in pain.
Upon seeing the pattern, someone in the police station with sharp eyes noticed that it was the uniform of a transport team supervisor.
I heard that this dress was a gift from his sister, and he treasures it so much that he never lets anyone touch it easily.
When we were chatting together, I even teased him about being a sister-obsessed guy. He just smiled and didn't say anything back, which is why I remember it so clearly.
"With this amount of bleeding, the person is probably..." The archer looked at the strip of cloth stained red with blood, such a large piece, and hesitated before finishing his sentence.
Having understood the archer's meaning, the crowd's excitement at defeating the cultist subsided.
Although most of the people had never met him, the death of their companion was still very painful.
"Finding this piece of clothing means he's still in this area. Everyone, search carefully; perhaps the remaining people need our rescue."
Seeing that everyone looked unwell, He Xiqiang tried to cheer them up.
"Look over there, there seems to be something there?" someone with good eyesight said, pointing to an empty space. The footprints on the ground also pointed in that direction.
Upon hearing this, everyone followed him and ran in that direction, quickly arriving at the place he had mentioned.
Only then did everyone realize that it was an altar, which looked to have been built not long ago, as the wood was still very fresh.
If it weren't for the sheer number of corpses that needed to be housed during this zombie horde, this altar might never have been discovered.
As people walked up the steps and saw the items placed around the altar, many couldn't help but vomit.
Someone who looked closely noticed that some of the missing transport team members were among them.
In the center of the altar, which they hadn't noticed, stood a dark figure.
As they gathered around, someone in the center of the altar spoke, a slightly shrill voice saying, "Since you're here, then stay!"
