Another Life: Elf Archer

When the five chimeras appeared on the high platform, every year they had just stepped onto the steps of the first row of auditoriums, a dozen fully armed referees had already stood up, ready to rescue people at any time.

As a result, the figure sitting crookedly in the stands, yawning with his legs crossed, became particularly eye-catching.

Nick also saw Nian Nian and waved to her.

Nian Nian walked up to him amidst the burst of jeers and whistles. He turned his head slightly and saw Mrs. Morgan posing on the high platform.

The laughter became louder, and York pretended to climb onto Mrs. Morgan's back with difficulty, sticking his butt out, holding the back of the big mouse's neck tightly with both hands, and his entire upper body seemed to be buried in those soft long hairs.

"Has Mrs. Morgan molted like a mammoth?"

After Nian Nian finished speaking, the five chimeras who covered their ears finally woke up from the moment of freedom and confusion when they appeared, and the five lion heads were roaring in unison.

"Maybe it's because I've become fatter. I think it will have a taste that everyone likes."

Nick snapped his fingers, and the breeze flowed around them, filtering out most of the loud noise around them.

"Did you get your share of the giant lizard meat just now?"

Nian Nian poked his arm, and a wave of heat hit him, triggering another round of cheers.

"We've got it, let's go back to the dinner party later." Nick grabbed her wrist and motioned her to look towards the high platform, "These chimeras seem to be a new breed, and Sarah and the others will suffer a lot."

"Yeah" Nian Nian quickly turned his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and breathed softly, "They finally made something with wings."

Although Sarah warned her every year to be careful of Chimera, in fact, no one among the members of the Christmas Clown Mercenary Group really took this synthetic beast seriously.

Sarah's reminder was that no one knew what strange combinations those alchemists would come up with. After all, in the arena of Usher City alone, they had seen people wearing crocodile armor and with antelope heads. Chimeras, those grafted with cobras, etc.

The five chimeras in front of me look like the most classic combination of a lion and a goat, with two heads breathing fire, and a hissing python head as a tail.

Generally speaking, the original intention of creating this kind of creature is not to make it beautiful and charming, or to let them multiply into a group. Those poisonous claws will not only make the enemies stay away, but also make them cautious, one by one. The tail made of joints covered with barbs makes the snake head always hungry. The thin throat can only hold some liquid food, such as blood.

When I first saw the two lumps of sarcoma-like things bulging on their backs, I thought those tangled spikes were really ugly and impractical.

At this time, the two masses of sarcoma developed into two gray-brown membrane wings, and these sharp hooks had their own place, and were evenly distributed on the edges of these bat wings.

These chimeras are nearly three meters long, less than two meters tall, and their wingspan is about three times their body length. Five chimeras spread their wings at the same time, occupying only one third of the circular platform, but their mouths The flames spurted out were more than ten meters long, covering half of the high platform.

Sarah and the others had already retreated to the other end of the high platform, looking slightly solemn.

The twins and Kraft quickly backed away, Sarah in the middle, and York stopped being funny, straightened up, took out his sledgehammer, and patted Mrs. Morgan on the head.

"then"

York didn't look back, he grabbed back, grabbed a steel chain as thick as his thumb, hung it on the end of the hammer handle, held the steel chain in his right hand, swung it a few times, and threw it at one of the Chimeras.

The twins' singing ended almost at the same time. The two power-increasing skills were superimposed on York. The sledgehammer came out like a meteorite, causing the Chimera to sink downwards. The steel chain wrapped around one of the wings and the torso. The connected roots were pulled sharply by York, the Chimera's front legs bent, and its two heads were heavily knocked into the pool of blood in front of it.

Mrs. Morgan jumped up, and the Chimera tilted its body, half of its body fell to the ground, and was dragged around the field almost on all fours. From time to time, it was even hung into the water around the high platform to wash.

The python at its tail had been frozen into pimples of ice, and the ground that half of its body brushed had been transformed into ice picks. When the steaming blood was poured on it, it was instantly condensed into blood spikes.

Kraft put down the gun in his hand and immediately picked up another identical gun. The barrel of the gun was as thick as a fist, and two large nets with flashing lightning just shot out. They covered the other two Chimera, one behind the other. Aim and pull the trigger.

Sara gently stroked the back of her hand. The silver gloves were cold and soft. She raised her hand to touch the earrings. The butterfly tattoo on her neck spread its wings and the eye-like spots lit up one after another.

The twins' magical support had arrived, and the ice line spread rapidly from under her feet. In an instant, the four chimeras in the big net screamed in unison.

Before their wings were put to use, they were stabbed into sieves by the sudden appearance of ice picks.

"Are these wings just decorations?" Nick muttered in a low voice, his straight back slumped again, "None of them can fly."

"It is indeed possible that it is a decoration," Nian Nian jumped up and clapped his hands vigorously, and then a tsunami of applause and cheers erupted from the audience, "If it is not defective, it will not be sent here."

Let’s not talk about whether those thin wings can carry the weight of the Chimeras and let them take off on the spot. It is not certain whether these goats and lions that have been forcibly attached with wings know how to fly.

"And these wings also slow them down. What's there to be afraid of with five flamethrowers?"

Nick smiled at the people on his left and right, and the referees pushed up their chins that had dropped to their chests, smiled awkwardly, and began to exchange crazy looks with each other.

"I guess they must be questioning the brains of our group. By the way, they are ecstatic about how easy it is to collect the protection fee today."

There are risks involved in rescuing people from life-and-death battles, and these hungry Chimeras are the main contributor to the high work-related injury rate.

Nian Nian held his chin and watched Sara dismantle the four Chimeras little by little with the support of the twin power banks. Kraft was lowering his head to reassemble the two scattered net guns. These are disposable props, thanks to He made an extra handful at that time.

The one that had been used as a mop for three rounds had long since stopped moving. Mrs. Morgan held the body and sniffed it, scratching the flesh to pieces with her claws. York first helped it pick out the lion's brain and snake gallbladder. He struggled to untie the steel chain with the sledgehammer hanging on it.

In less than half a minute, the winner was decided.

Sara and the others turned a deaf ear to the cheers and shouts of the audience, and did not even bother to look at the enthusiastic audience. After slowly dismantling the Chimera, Sara took a short rest and then directed the other three people to break up the corpses on the field. The meat was pushed into the water, and layers of blood were attracted, so the place was barely cleaned.

“Wow wow wow, so considerate”

Nian Nian stood up, blew a kiss to Sister Sara who was about to leave, waved her hands exaggeratedly, and grinned from the corner of her mouth to her ears.

"It's unnecessary." Nick tsked, turning his head and looking away as if he felt embarrassed.

The empty high platform was slowly descending, and the surrounding sewage was gradually being drained. When the high platform was level with the ground, a large circular pit like a basin appeared in the center of the arena.

With a harsh sound of the iron door opening, dozens of pairs of eyes of different colors roared in the darkness behind the fence, and the participants of the "Ten Thousand Beasts Fight" also jumped into the venue one after another.

Only Nian Nian and Nick were looking down at the dark gates. The eyes of other spectators, referees and participants were glued to the sky.

A bright red banner hangs from the bottom of the auction house that has been hanging overhead. Golden numbers dance on the banner. Every time a number is fixed, the whole place becomes silent for a while.

four digits.

five digits.

"F"

Following the chaotic exclamations and curses, one-third of the auditorium was suddenly empty. The originally empty venue was filled with people. Many people had already used knives to quickly eliminate the competitors.

The reward for today’s “Ten Thousand Beasts Fight” is

61 gold coins.

I dusted off my cloak every year, pacing in place with my hands behind my back with a face filled with vicissitudes of life. "People die for money and birds die for food, human nature is pitiful."

Nick secretly rolled his eyes and raised his foot to kick him

"Stop talking nonsense, this money is confiscated, I want to renovate the house."

Nian Nian turned around and made a face at him, stood on the edge of the auditorium, and took one step forward.
