Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 277 A Surprise (Daily 10,000 words)

"The second patrol team has three people, one of whom is probably a Soul Master based on his physical strength. The second team will become the vanguard, and the first team and I will follow behind. You guys be quick on your feet."

After silently turning all the bandits sleeping haphazardly in the cave into corpses, the others in the inner courtyard were fine, but Xu Sanshi and He Caitou's expressions were clearly not good, as if they were about to vomit.

Huo Yuhao noticed this, which is why he sent the second team up, giving the two of them some time to adjust on their own.

The enemy's footsteps were unsteady, and the footsteps grew closer. Beibei's breathing became heavy. Although this was his first time killing someone, now was not the time to be nervous.

The three men pressed themselves against the rock face, where the dried corpses hanging on either side served as their best disguise.

They lurked in the shadows, like three evil spirits coming to claim lives.

ten meters.

The enemy's position was getting closer and closer, and soon they had passed the location where the three of them were hiding.

Perhaps because they had patrolled so many times and never encountered any accidents, the three patrolmen were not very vigilant.

XiXi and BeiBei were the first to take their positions, and their sharp lightning leopard claws and thunder dragon claws instantly tore open the enemy's throat and carotid artery.

Under Huo Yuhao's guidance, the two of them each extended another claw, piercing the back of the enemy's head.

A huge ice spike shot out from the back of the Soul Master's head, its tip piercing through the enemy's mouth. Ling Luochen gently embraced the enemy and slowly laid him flat on the ground.

"Well done, keep it up."

Huo Yuhao gave the signal with satisfaction, and the nine of them fought their way through, clearing out enemies one by one, and advanced directly to the open area that Huo Yuhao had reached last time.

"Everyone stay put."

Huo Yuhao reactivated Moon Concealment Spirit Descent and slid down the steep slope of the cave without making a sound. He stealthily made his way to the center, took out a fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, wrapped it in a tattered piece of clothing he had taken from an enemy, and stuffed it under the buttocks of a large man.

The burly man was sleeping against a protruding rock. Huo Yuhao nudged him, and the man, still half asleep, made room for Huo Yuhao to insert the fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shell.

Returning to his original position, Huo Yuhao sized up the giant bandit who was a full two and a half meters tall in the distance, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

The giant bandit and the two bandits patrolling the cave were positioned in a protective circle, so that if one of them fell, it would alert the other two.

At the same time, all three had excellent vision, making it impossible for them to bypass the other two's line of sight and reach the enemy from behind.

Moon Concealing Candy could help him weave through the crowd, where the visibility was poor and he couldn't see clearly, but getting behind these three people wouldn't be so easy.

Fortunately, they had already prepared a plan for this problem in the operations room. With a flick of his finger, Ling Luochen sent a tiny ice crystal precisely embedded in the torch behind one of the guards.

Immediately afterwards, Ling Luochen shot out several more ice crystals. The water that flowed out after the ice crystals melted quickly soaked the torches, and the flames on the torches flickered a few times before going out completely.

"Um?"

The guard let out a soft exclamation, drawing the attention of the other two guards, who wanted to see what was going on, but without the torchlight, the other two couldn't see clearly at all.

With the vision blockade lifted, Team One and Team Three quickly stealthily moved towards the positions of the other two guards, while Team Two moved in the instant the guards turned around.

"Let's do it!"

At Huo Yuhao's command, the three guards fell to the ground simultaneously. Ma Xiaotao clapped her hands, and a burst of intense evil fire surged into the brain of the giant bandit, burning his brain into a brainstem. The other two guards fared much better; although they appeared to have no external injuries, they were already dead.

Ma Xiaotao tried to help the giant bandit in front of her up, but when he fell down, she realized just how heavy this mountain of flesh was.

Fortunately, Xu Sanshi was right there and held off the mountain of flesh, stabilizing the corpse. The three of them quickly arranged the corpse into a sitting, dazed position.

The other two guards leaned against the wall, so Ling Luochen and Huo Yuhao simply froze the two corpses and pressed them against the wall to help them pretend that they were still loyally guarding the wall.

"The target is awake, seemingly woken up by the urge to urinate, and he's doing it very quickly!"

Upon learning this information, the others panicked instantly. Fortunately, Huo Yuhao quickly added, "He went deeper into the tunnel. Perhaps he went out through an underground passage. Let's speed up and try to finish the cleanup before the enemy returns."

"Number Four, be on alert. The target has woken up and seems to be planning to go out to urinate. Be vigilant."

"Received on the 4th."

The three teams dared not slack off and quickly entered the depths of the cave. The depths of the cave were clearly the territory of those soul masters. Each cave contained some living supplies, and at the very least, there was a bed.

"Ling Luochen, you take the second team and retreat to help. The fourth team alone can't handle those lich witches. We'll take care of the soul masters here."

Huo Yuhao realized something was wrong and quickly arranged for Ling Luochen to lead the second team to go around and provide support.

After the Grim Reaper left his cave, he twitched his nose, sensing that the smell of blood inside seemed even stronger.

"Damn it, they always manage to get some unlucky guy covered in blood, making it hard for me to even find a few more intact human skins to put on my bed. These guys."

After grumbling a few times, the Grim Reaper walked to the exit of the tunnel, where twelve figures stood silently.

Upon seeing the messenger of death emerge from the tunnel, the twelve people, who seemed to be barely breathing, immediately knelt on one knee and respectfully bowed to the messenger of death.

"Alright, alright, damn it, you expect me to bow to you just to pee? When I created you bunch of corpse slaves, why didn't I think of you being this troublesome?"

At this moment, the Grim Reaper had already lifted the cloak covering his head, revealing a face that resembled a skull. His face seemed to be covered only by a thin membrane, and his eyes, emitting a pale green light, were filled with impatience.

The Grim Reaper pushed open the trapdoor of the rope ladder hanging on the wall of the tunnel, first carefully looked up and scanned the area, and then climbed out with peace of mind.

The next moment, a series of violent roars rang out, and even Huo Yuhao felt a faint tremor.

Huo Yuhao pulled the White Tiger Dagger from the chest of the last Soul Master, and his mental fluctuations emanated from it.

"Dai Yueheng and Ling Luochen have started fighting. We need to go and provide support. We have to be quick."

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's command, Chen Zifeng took the lead, bursting forth with incredible speed as he rushed towards the exit.

Even at this moment, they did not forget Huo Yuhao's instructions. The breakthrough hand rushed first, and the two teams formed a long line, quickly heading towards the target location.
