Chapter 13 Killing
The negotiations with the Holy Blood team did not take much time. After confirming that their location had been exposed, these Holy Blood men, whose mental state and sanity were completely online, decisively terminated the plan and honestly laid down their weapons as requested by Chen Jian.

When they entered the temporary shelter and saw the four fully armed team members, they immediately understood one thing:
It's not surprising that Xu Lie was arrested.

It's not about luring the enemy deep into our territory, it's just that he really can't defeat them.

Although no one can name those equipment, let alone know what they are used for, anyone can feel the "beauty" contained in those equipment at a glance.

The beauty that comes from order and power.

These people definitely do not belong to this world, because in this world, even in the headquarters of the Mechanicus, you can no longer find a similar "order".

Yes, they also have guns and cannons.

But they would definitely not be like the four-member group in front of them, who just stand there and make people feel that they are ready to deal with anything.
-
If they were really the Mechanicus, they should still be wiping their rifles with monsters' blood at this moment, praying that the guns wouldn't explode in subsequent battles, right?

Compared to the calm and even stern faces of the four-member team, the so-called "ritual" of those believers seemed like a joke.
Therefore, cooperation is indeed the best choice.

The woman standing in the front carefully avoided Chen Jian's gun, stepped forward to pull up Xu Lie who was sitting on the ground, checked his injuries, then turned back to look at Chen Jian and asked:
"We need to tend to his wounds, okay?"

"can."

Chen Jian nodded in agreement, but never put down the gun in his hand.

During this time, Xu Lie briefly introduced the situation of their Holy Blood team.

A doctor, Xie Liu.

A scout, Xu Lie himself.

A shield guard, Li Shi, holding a large steel shield in his left hand and a short-barreled musket of huge caliber in his right hand.

A "ranger" named Zeng Yi, who is covered in armor, with a pistol on his waist and a long sword on his back.

This configuration might be considered a powerful "special warfare team" in the era of cold weapons, but from Chen Jian's perspective, it seemed wrong.
What the hell is this, Warhammer?
Chen Jian felt the blood vessels in his forehead were beating wildly. He wanted to say something, but he was speechless.

The two parties fell into an awkward silence. It was only after Doctor Xie Liu treated Xu Lie's wound that he finally spoke:
"He's fine for now. We need to kill that monster now."

"You guys want to come together?"

Without any extra communication, Chen Jian nodded and answered decisively:
"Together."

So after just two minutes, all the team members who were still able to move packed up their equipment and walked out of the shelter.

The mother was still struggling at the subway exit, but compared to before, half of its body had already entered the tunnel, as if it wanted to escape back to its nest and find a way to recover from its injuries.

The three members of the Holy Blood Squad did not give it this chance.

As soon as they saw the target, the three of them immediately dispersed and formed a combat formation.

The shield guard raised his steel shield and moved forward slowly. The musket in his right hand fired loudly. The bullets as big as quail eggs flew straight to the most vulnerable part of the monster's back and embedded deeply into it.

Chen Jian was horrified by what he saw. After firing the first shot, the shield guard had already hung the musket back to the right side and skillfully loaded it with one hand.

"Flintlock paper shells, very backward."

Chen Jian whispered:

"Although I can't tell the model of the one in Xu Lie's hand, it's obviously a modern pistol with modern ammunition."

"The technology here is quite chaotic. Maybe we'll see cavalry charging with laser guns in the future."

"I also have this feeling."

Shen Yue nodded thoughtfully and was about to say something, but his attention was quickly attracted by the three-person team approaching the mother body.

After two consecutive rounds of shooting, the shield guard has successfully absorbed all the hatred of the mother body.

The remaining tentacles waved wildly in the air, and then smashed down fiercely.

"Bang!" The shield guard took the blow head-on, and the heavy steel shield was smashed into the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

At the same time, the ranger strode forward, stepped on a piece of solid ground on the right, jumped high, and swung his sword to cut off the tentacles that had not yet retracted.

"laugh--"

Blood gushed out and the ranger swung his sword faster and faster.

It was only then that Chen Jian discovered that if his speed was fast enough, the efficiency of using cold weapons in combat seemed to be higher than that of long-range weapons.

In just half a minute, the remaining four tentacles on the mother body were cut off.

Its front claws, which had long since degenerated like those of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, were no longer able to pose any threat to the surrounding Holy Blood team. The rangers in the team nimbly dodged the mother's tumbling and stabbed their knives into its fragile skin that was not covered with a stratum corneum.

When the blade cut, blood gushed out instantly, but due to the active contraction of the muscles, the bleeding rate quickly slowed down.

"Medicine!"

The Ranger shouted.

Doctor Xie Liu threw a bottle of tightly wrapped medicine high up. The ranger took it, smashed it on the hilt of the sword, and stuffed it directly into the monster's wound.

After a short howl, the mother body began to roll violently.

The Holy Blood Squad immediately began to evacuate, leisurely retreating to a safe distance.

The blood that had gradually stopped flowing out again, Chen Jian felt vaguely that they were not hunting monsters, but rather killing pigs.
Isn't this too easy?
As if noticing Chen Jian's expression, Xu Lie, who was injured and did not participate in the battle, took the initiative to explain:
"It's just the finishing touches now. Of course it will be simple."

"If you hadn't broken its legs in advance, causing it serious injuries that would be difficult to recover from, even if we wanted to get close to it, it would be a life-threatening situation."

"Not to mention, you have to use the sword to accurately cut its aorta."

"Anyway, the bounty should have been yours. We don't need much."

"Twenty percent, how about that?"

"Let's talk about it later, but I won't let you suffer any loss."

Chen Jian did not answer immediately. Before he understood the economic system of this world, he was determined not to say a word about the distribution of the bounty.

After all, a casual promise might result in a large sum of money, or even the foundation for the survival of the team.
Seeing his determined expression, Xu Lie didn't say anything more.

At this time, the mother had completely collapsed due to blood loss. Through the night vision goggles, Chen Jian could also see that its core temperature was dropping rapidly.

"dying."

Chen Jian glanced at the time. It only took 3 minutes and 20 seconds from the time he was bled to the time he died.

"Yes, they are easy to kill if you find the right method."

"Of course, it's not that easy."

Xu Lie took a deep breath and then said:
"Things here are over."

"We should go in."

"Where?"

Chen Jian asked with a frown.

"Go to his lair."

A playful smile appeared on Xu Lie's face, and then he continued:
"It's the place you were tricked into but never got to."

"A graveyard."
