Chapter 91 The Mantis Stalks the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind
Wang Ruoran raised his staff and aimed at the gecko's head, preparing to take down the gecko's head with a fireball.
All the contractors were waiting for Wang Ruoran to complete the hidden mission, so that they would have a share of the spoils. Otherwise, they would not risk attacking the Bronze Tree Branch if there was no benefit.
And it was indeed profitable to attack the Bronze Tree by focusing fire. The 12 people killed some ghouls more or less, which was much more than normal.
This was also thanks to the fact that Dikou Chaoshu chose to believe Wang Ruoran and told her the location of the Bronze Tree Branch.
However, human greed is endless, and just killing an S-level ghoul gecko could not satisfy their desires at all.
Now that they have united with the contract of Paradise, they naturally want to plan for more. Even if they cannot kill the so-called One-eyed King, they must kill a few SS-level ghouls to give full play to the advantages of the group.
At the same time, if they unite, other contractors will definitely not be able to catch up in the hidden mission.
The human contractors assigned to the local search officers as partners are indeed very strong, at least stronger than their group of contractors, but it is difficult for such strong people to unite, so they are not to be feared.
The same is true for the non-human contractors. In this world full of humanoid creatures, most of the non-human contractors are really not good.
Just when Wang Ruoran's powerful fireball was about to be charged and the overall situation of the Bronze Tree Branch was about to be determined, in the shadows outside the hall corridor, the scout crows who had been secretly observing for a long time moved their eyes, and the mantis stalked the cicada while the oriole was behind.
Above the 12 contractors, there were actually 4 parasitic ghosts hanging upside down on the ceiling of the hall. Obviously, they took advantage of the human contractors to hide while the gecko was surrounded and killed.
At this moment, they moved, like rubber bodies suddenly exerted force, 2 parasitic ghosts jumped towards Wang Ruoran who was about to finish off the gecko, and 2 parasitic ghosts jumped towards the gecko.
The eyes of the 12 contractors below all shrank. This creature did not match the style of the ghoul world. It was obviously a contractor. I didn't expect that there would be an old bitch who wanted to snatch food from the tiger's mouth this time.
"Damn it!"
Wang Ruoran roared, and then gave up the head of the gecko without hesitation, adjusted the direction of the staff, and fired an incomplete powerful fireball at the two parasitic ghosts that jumped down.
"We can't let this damn guy steal peaches!" All the contractors shouted hurriedly.
They all used their abilities or threw out their weapons to try to stop the parasitic ghosts rushing towards the gecko.
The next second, the weapons and magic balls all bombarded the two parasitic ghosts that jumped towards the gecko. In this short second, they chose the head of the gecko instead of Wang Ruoran's safety.
After Wang Ruoran threw out the fireball, she immediately rolled away from her original position. This was a habit she developed in the mission world. If this attack did not kill the two monsters in seconds, she would not be close to them, and she could still try to kite the opponent.
The profession of the magic system really cannot be approached. Maybe the high-level magic profession has ways to deal with melee, but she doesn't. She can only buy a few defensive props.
Other contractors will definitely not come to protect her. Even if she dies, she will only lose a hidden task at most, and her combat power is the lowest among the 12 people.
But if the gecko is supplemented, they will lose not only the hidden task, but also the reward of the S-level ghoul, so it is obvious.
The gorgeous fireballs from the staff hit the parasitic ghosts without surprise, but the parasitic ghosts used sickle blades to form a shield in advance.
The fireballs scattered, and the parasitic ghosts were like digging carbon, and their bodies were already black and carbonized, but none of the two parasitic ghosts died.
Because of Wang Ruoran's donkey rolling, the parasitic ghosts had no choice but to pounce on nothing. There was no pause, only the next wave of fierce attacks on Wang Ruoran.
No one came to take care of Wang Ruoran. The two parasitic ghosts rushed towards Wang Ruoran with great momentum, while the parasitic ghost that jumped towards the gecko was instantly killed by the fire of all the contractors. Maybe this is the pure friendship of the contractors.
At this time, the other contractors all noticed Wang Ruoran's embarrassment. Wang Ruoran had no intention of counterattacking at all. She was just using her magic power to speed up her body to dodge.
Because Wang Ruoran knew that with the speed of this monster, once she counterattacked, the monster would have a chance to get close. Although she could deal with the two monsters at that time, she might be bitten by the monster before she died if she was not careful.
Moreover, these monsters are not native creatures. They don't even have the source of the world and no rewards. So she just timidly waited for those so-called companions to free up their hands to help her.
"Xiao Ruoran is really embarrassed. Let's help her quickly." The charming woman said anxiously while holding the staff.
The contractors looked at her with contempt. You are holding a staff. If you really want to help others, don't you know how to throw a few magic balls to replenish the remaining blood monsters.
Of course, they also knew that Wang Ruoran would definitely not die. The speed of this monster was good, but Wang Ruoran was a second-level contractor after all. If he gave up attacking and only used mana to escape, he would definitely not be caught up.
"Xiao Ruoran, take out your defensive props quickly and let me see what quality it is." The charming woman shouted at Wang Ruoran who kept dodging.
"I can go to hell, quickly make up for it so that we can complete the hidden mission and leave." Wang Ruoran dodged a sickle and shouted angrily.
The contractors nodded, and several melee contractors came to the gecko first to prevent the dog thief in the dark from stealing peaches again.
Wang Ruoran was really moved when he saw this scene. Paradise's most conscientious teammate, no problem.
"Wind Blade."
The charming woman waved her staff, and several wind blades appeared from the condensed mana. Then the wind blades lightly cut the two parasitic ghosts with residual health into several pieces.
Blood spilled out, and the scattered blood splashed all over Wang Ruoran. She was a little emotional at this moment, but she didn't expect that the first person who wanted to save her was actually the woman who was least likely to deal with it.
"Maybe I misunderstood, maybe she doesn't..."
Bang~
Wang Ruoran said with emotion, but suddenly heard the sound of her defense props breaking, and then her eyes were spinning and her body was out of control.
The next second she saw that her body was penetrated by many bone spears, and the body parts below the neck were like meat under the ravage of the bone spears.
It was obvious that one of the two parasitic ghosts had the blood of ghosts and gods in its belly, and Wang Ruoran died from the blood ghost technique Bone Spear.
Ye Yan in the shadow shook his head. This fire-wielding contractor was only worth 1,000 system gold coins.
"It's time to go. The second wave of parasitic ghosts is coming. Let's kill as many as we can." Ye Yan swallowed the last bottle of blood juice and murmured calmly.
As Ye Yan left, the detective crow that was spying on the contractor in the dark also flew away quietly.
The last parasitic ghost responsible for protecting the reconnaissance crow slowly hid in the darkness, joined the second wave of parasitic ghosts that had already arrived, and continued to spy on the contractors in the dark.
