Under the relentless assaults of his underlings, the house they were hiding in shook violently before collapsing with a loud rumble.
Amidst the billowing dust, Reef crouched like a cat as he shielded Sheyan. Drizzt's lips curled into a sneer, as two incomparably chilling rays shot out from his body and connected with Reef. Reef instantly sensed an incomparably intense threat, as he activated a 'Faith-guard' over himself.
Two rhombus ice daggers darted in with unparalleled swiftness, as the obstructions in between were utterly incapable of obstructing them! Reef raised his shield to block, but was instantly pierced by the two rhombus ice daggers. Under the pervading pale-blue radiance, he was once again frozen into an ice sculpture! Instead, the illusion of the sphinx appeared once again, as it instantly spat out a mouthful of hot air to thaw the ice.
Just as Drizzt's underlings were about to encircle them, Sheyan smashed a flask of medicine onto the ground. Dense vapors evaporated into the air, forming a shockwave and a subsequent deceleration effect that stifled the encirclement, giving Reef a golden opportunity to catch his breath.
Following that, Sheyan smashed his fist against the wall of a nearby house. Seizing the opportunity of crumbling rocks and debris, he once again dragged Reef in and fled inside.
This time, the house they fled into was considerably sturdy. It appeared to be constructed of brick and concrete, and its walls were rather thick. Drizzt's close combat underlings were all Reserve-duty Growth-hunters. Even if they possessed superhuman physique and weapons, they would still require 3-5 minutes to demolish this house. Moreover, they couldn't afford to be unprepared for the enemy's counterattack and ambush.
"Dammit! Are those two fellows delaying for time? "Drizzt suddenly had such a thought.
Drizzt was actually the branch manager of a large scale party, Skull Party. In this branch, he, the slain illusionist, the sniper Triss who was currently dueling with Brother Black, and the slain Joseph were all Growth-hunters. Kaoyi and the remaining four were Reserve-duty Growth-hunters.
Hence, when Kaoyi and Joseph sensed something amiss, and requested for reinforcements through a special method, Drizzt had already received it and rushed over. Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. He could only collect their corpses.
"No, the goal of stalling for time is to wait for reinforcements …" Thoughts flashed through Drizzt's mind.
"But if there are enemies nearby, the spies that we, Team Skeleton, have planted in the police station may be able to detect them through satellite surveillance. Even if there is no way to transmit detailed records, they will definitely be able to send out a warning in advance. This possible threat can be eliminated."
"Don't tell me those two are so confident in that escaped reserve-duty Growth-Hunter? That he can kill Triss in a short period of time and return to rescue her? … What a joke! Reserve-duty Growth-Hunters and Growth-Hunters were two completely different entities! If you say that you defeated Trissy, I believe you. But to defeat Trissy in such a short time and still have the strength to come back and rescue her, the chances of that are even lower than hitting the jackpot. "
At this moment, a Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter named Ben Johnson spoke into the party channel.
"Boss, this MT is quite difficult to deal with. That extremely rare Dark Gold shield seems to be a great counter to your ability! He still has at least one honorary dosage that he hasn't used yet. If we continue to fight them in this kind of terrain, we're bound to be stuck in a battle of attrition. Why don't we deal with that reserve gunner first? "
"Scram! Are you doubting my prowess? " Before Drizzt could reply, the sniper Triss had already shrieked miserably in the party channel like a banshee that had been poked at her vitals. Truthfully speaking, she was an extremely conceited and arrogant individual, which was why she was expelled from the core of the skeleton party to partner up with Drizzt.
"I will definitely put that idiot's head in my scope and blast it to smithereens. Before that, if anyone dares to interfere, I will crush their brains first!"
Drizzt pondered for a moment, he still felt an ominous premonition. Suddenly, his eyes flashed.
"Oh right, this MT's prowess and awareness are so valiant. If he is given sufficient opportunities to mature, then he definitely won't be inferior to Zeus! Oh right!! Such a formidable MT, how could he only have 2 people by his side? They must be stalling for time while waiting for reinforcements! But, such a good opportunity, how can I let it slip by? "
Thinking of that, Drizzt's expression instantly turned gloomy. He immediately pulled out an exceedingly tattered walkie-talkie, the design of which was so old it seemed like it was from World War II.
"Requesting communication, requesting communication."
"Your communication will consume all remaining battery. Recovery period: 24 hours. Continue?"
"Yes!"
"Connecting...."
"Hello, Judas, please immediately activate the satellite surveillance system. Check if there are any anomalies within 30 kilometres of us. Especially if there are movements of personnel that don't belong to us."
"Nope. I only see several dinosaurs. If you waste your communication quota on that, then you are truly an utter fool. "
"Shut up Judas. I need you to monitor every 2 minutes. Once you discover reinforcements rushing over, immediately warn me."
"Drizzt, your energy quota has been depleted. How do I warn you?"
"Follow the party's routine. Repeat 4 times and it will be fine."
"20,000 utility points."
"Deal."
After concluding the call, Drizzt's heart was finally settled. After eliminating his worries, he naturally felt that he could easily eat his opponent to death!
At this moment, the house they were hiding in was once again destroyed and collapsed. Seizing the opportunity, Drizzt consecutively unleashed 4 'Icicle Daggers'. Although they were all forcefully received by Reef, Drizzt was exceedingly confident in his own offensive capabilities!
Because, in Drizzt's party, there was similarly an MT! As one of the core pillars of his party, he would definitely have exchanged pointers with his own party's MT. Moreover, his MT's strength and realm far surpassed this brat before him. Therefore, Drizzt was certain that every single 'Icicle Dagger' of his would deal considerable damage to his opponent!
Witnessing his opponent scuttling into another house, Drizzt squinted his eyes and revealed an even more bewitching grin. His long scarlet tongue licked the tip of an 'Icicle Dagger'. At this moment, Ben Johnson insensibly said, "What's the matter?
"Boss, the actions of those two are too strange. Don't they know that the only outcome for them is to be slowly tortured to death? For the sake of living for another half an hour, they would rather die in humiliation? I suggest we send reinforcements. Ask the other branches to send reinforcements, to prevent any undue delay! "
"Shut up!" Drizzt's lips curled into a cruel sneer. "Even without reinforcements, I can finish them off! It's just a few minutes, a dozen or so minutes. Do you know how much an MT's equipment is worth? If his Dark Gold Shield was coincidentally dropped, how much would it be worth? For a few minutes, a dozen or so minutes, you want me to share this immense profit with others? "
Ben Johnson was instantly speechless. Drizzt coldly continued.
"Just mind your own business. Dammit, the dust you've stirred up is too much.... ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, achoo!"
Finally, that incomparably wretched sneeze completely destroyed Drizzt's callous killing intent and bewitching image! In a flash, snot and saliva flowed out, appearing exceptionally repulsive.
After hearing that sneeze, Sheyan who was leaning against the wall with his eyes shut abruptly raised his head. His eyes were blazing with a fiery fighting spirit.
"That Ben Johnson and Drizzt are extremely astute fellows. As long as the flu symptoms appear once more, it will arouse their suspicions... then, when the flu symptoms appear again, it will be our golden opportunity to strike!"
Not long after Sheyan's words faded, a nearby Reserve-duty Growth-Hunter sneezed as well. Instantly, Drizzt's face exposed a doubtful expression.
"It's time."
These words seemed to be squeezed out from the gaps of Sheyan's teeth. At this moment, a golden translucent armour abruptly materialized over his body. It was indeed Reef's' Faith-guard '.
In the next second, Sheyan had already smashed through the glass window and leapt out. His' Barbaric-demon Pupil 'was flickering with brilliance! Drizzt had previously carefully distanced himself from Sheyan. Hence, Sheyan had to close in on Drizzt, shortening the distance between them before activating 'Horndash'.
"Finally can't hold back anymore huh?" Facing Sheyan's counterattack, Drizzt's heart relaxed. If the two of them really wanted to hide in these squat residences like tortoises until their deaths, then Drizzt couldn't help but suspect that they were plotting something. Now that the enemy had suddenly switched to offense, to Drizzt, it was simply like revealing his trump card during a game of cards.
The enemy had already used up all his cards, and all his cards had been revealed, while he still had too many cards that he had not used. This situation was like two people of the same level playing Dou Dizhu, with one side playing Dou Dizhu and the other playing Dou Dizhu normally. For a gambler, the probability of winning was as high as 90%.
Drizzt couldn't help but laugh shrilly, as he involuntarily conjured up the image of a snake spitting out its red tongue. His figure swayed as he hastily retreated several steps, while simultaneously shooting out an icy dagger, shattering Sheyan's layer of 'Faith-armour'!
