Chapter 60 - Failure is not enough

A big hole was blown up in the underground palace, leading directly to the ground. Before Kevin and the other three could figure out what was going on, they saw a rope hanging from the hole, and then a familiar figure appeared in front of them.

A tall and thin man, who looked smart and capable, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, who else could it be but Nangong? He was still carrying his black briefcase, with a delicate small crossbow hanging around his waist, and he used his free hand to grab the handle of the zipline with one hand, and slid down the rope like a drop from the sky.

Kevin immediately guessed what happened to the two or three explosions on the ceiling before, and the culprit turned out to be this... uh, this guy who called himself a demon hunter! He immediately had an urge to go up and beat him up. If it weren't for the wrong timing, he would really go up with a brick!

At the same time as Nangong appeared, Vivian and Lily also temporarily changed back to human form. Although there were still many undead armors around, with their strength, they could deal with them in human form for a short time. Now the important thing is to figure out what Nangong's sudden appearance means! It turned out that he did not leave with other supernatural enthusiasts, but stayed in the castle?

At this moment, Nangong had landed smoothly. He jumped a few times lightly in a piece of rubble and found a flat ground. Then he looked up to see the situation. As a result, the first thing he saw was three familiar people standing in front of him with their mouths wide open. The expression on his face was as exaggerated as it could be: "Hey... You three?! How come you are here!?"

"Why are you here?!" Lily shouted almost at the same time.

"This is my job," Nangong was stunned, and then explained, "Just now I was trapped in the tunnel above, and wanted to blow up a road to the ground, but I didn't expect that even the floor collapsed. There was actually space below, so I came down to see..."

Good guy, how much explosives were used! Using explosives to clear the way in the underground palace, is this half-baked demon hunter thinking that ordinary ways of dying are not fast enough, so he is dying in a fancy way?

"Now is not the time to talk about this!" Kevin suddenly shouted. In the few seconds that Nangong was talking, the tin cans around had recovered from the short-term chaos. Now there are hundreds of empty armors staggering towards the center of the hall. The demon chamber ban engraved on them should still have some residual effect, so these armors move very slowly and seem to be hesitant, but the red light behind their visors is getting stronger and stronger, and it is obvious that they are about to completely lose control. This is not an occasion for casual conversation!

Nangong only noticed the situation around him at this time. Seeing countless undead armors with red "eyes", he was immediately shocked: "Undead Knights?! What's going on with this scale!?"

Kevin was thinking about how to explain in two sentences why the three "ordinary people" appeared in the underground palace. Nangong had already taken action quickly. He quickly pulled out his small crossbow from his waist, threw his suitcase on the ground with his other hand, opened it with one hand, took out a small medicine bottle from the small grid inside, and then smashed it hard at an undead armor that had begun to approach him. At the same time, the crossbow had been aimed in another direction. With a bang, the bowstring sounded, and a small silver-white arrow shot out.

The vial hit the first armor, and when it shattered, it released a large amount of white silver dust. The dust seemed to have some magic power. After it was sprayed out, it did not disperse. Instead, it quickly covered the whole body of the armor and began to drill into the gaps in the armor, while another silver arrow accurately hit the face of the second armor. The arrow exploded directly and turned into a silver light that sank into the helmet of the armor.

"Hide behind these stone slabs!" Nangong quickly loaded the second arrow on the small crossbow, aiming at the third enemy while shouting hurriedly, "I'm in front. These things are not fast. You will find a chance to run quickly! Don't worry about me!"

Kevin was just thinking about how to beat up this bad "demon hunter" to relieve his anger, but at this time he was stunned: Although he was not successful, this Nangong seemed to have good character? It was different from those demon hunters mentioned by Vivian who took ordinary people's lives lightly.

As he was talking, Nangong had already used the same method to attack the other two armors. While shooting arrows, he retreated step by step behind a large stone slab. Thanks to the big hole he had just blown, the fallen rocks in the center of the hall formed a pile of ready-made fortifications for people to hide. At the same time, Kevin also pulled Vivian and Lily to hide behind another large stone slab according to Nangong's instructions: Now that the underground palace has been blown up, those slow armors can't trap flying vampires and wall-climbing werewolves, but they don't want to do this in front of Nangong for the time being, because... this half-baked demon hunter actually has the real stuff in his hands! Even though he is a ** mortal, the fact that he can get these equipment is enough to explain some very frightening problems.

Kevin decided to see the situation. If the situation did not change, he would let Vivian and Lily take action. It is better to expose their identities than to be beaten, but if Nangong really has the real stuff, then of course he would be happy to save trouble and effort.

Nangong took a breath after a series of attacks, and then took out another piece of cardboard from the suitcase. There were complex symbols written in red paint on the paper. Kevin only glanced at it and was shocked to find that it was the Leta Rune.

Although ordinary people can use the Leta Rune, this "ordinary person" also has requirements. In addition to the demon hunter, only those ascetics with strong spirits can withstand the impact of the Leta Rune on the spirit. Who is this Nangong?

"Don't show your head. These mindless guys will attack the most active targets." Nangong took the time to turn his head and look at Kevin's position. "I will deal with these things. Don't worry, I am an expert in exorcism. Evil spirits are eliminated!"

"Expert" spell, the paper with runes immediately ignited without fire, but Nangong seemed to hold it upside down. The end that caught fire was the end that he was holding with his fingers.

"Oh my god..." Nangong jumped up immediately because of the burn, and the rune card fell to the ground and extinguished the fire. He hurriedly picked up the paper and blew away the dirt, and shouted again: "Evil spirits are destroyed! Evil spirits are destroyed! Evil spirits... x, the fire rune is burned."

Kevin was just planning how to watch the demon hunters kill people everywhere, and then he saw Nangong frantically taking out a lighter from his body, relighting the rune card while shouting: "This can still destroy evil spirits - go!"

The rune card was thrown at the armor group, bursting out a dazzling red light, and then... then it was gone.

Vivian finally couldn't help but remind him: "Well, Mr. Demon Hunter, don't you want to see your results after the fight?"

Nangong looked up and found that the four armored people he had attacked with the crossbow and exorcism powder had stood up shakily. The magic powder and silver arrows only made these tin cans dizzy for a few seconds, and they didn't hurt them at all.

Kevin's forehead was covered in sweat: this demon hunter just dropped from the sky and shot on the move, using magic and martial arts at the same time, looking very cool and majestic, but it turned out that only the pose was good from beginning to end...

"What's going on..." Nangong immediately jumped back two steps and looked down at the equipment in his hand, "It shouldn't be, this thing has always been very useful... Don't panic, I still have a backup!"

As he said, he bent down and took out a lot of bits and pieces from his suitcase, and then assembled them into a large crossbow with a dazzling and skillful movement. The large crossbow was floating with a faint silver light, which seemed to complement the moonlight falling from the top of the cave. Kevin's eye twitching finally calmed down: this half-baked guy finally took out something that looked powerful.

"Hmph, the power of this thing is no joke," Nangong smiled slightly, raised the crossbow and aimed at the enemy, "Let you see the demon hunter's silver explosive arrows with your own eyes... Damn, I didn't bring any arrows!"

Vivian slapped herself on the forehead: "Big dog, get ready, this guy can't be relied on."

"Wait!" Kevin saw that Vivian and Lily were about to transform, and hurriedly whispered, then looked at Nangong who was jumping up and down not far away but didn't care about anything. He always felt that this guy was a trouble, even if he was a half-baked, it was still a trouble.

Kevin wanted to solve this trouble, at least not let the genuine demon hunter behind him jump out.

He lowered his head and searched around. The gravel on the ground was either too small or too big, and it was not very suitable, but soon he touched a hard object in his pocket, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Kevin carefully ran behind Nangong, holding a hard object in his hand, and smashed the back of the other person's head!

At the same time, a sharp voice echoed in his mind: "This machine thinks you have never read the instructions! There is definitely something wrong with the way you use it!"
