Chapter 160 Betrayal
Hansel, with long hair, now showed all his abilities like an angry lion. The axe in his left hand blocked a heavy punch from the opposite Horned Demon Governor, and the one-handed crossbow in his right hand almost stuffed into the other party's eyes and pulled the trigger.
No matter how strong the armor is, it is impossible to protect the fragile eyes. The powerful kinetic energy brought by the alloy crossbow strings made the crossbow arrow penetrate into the mind of the Horned Demon Governor without any obstacles, and in an instant he lost his combat power.
After killing this difficult enemy, Hansel, who had to breathe heavily after killing this difficult enemy, raised his head and watched the brothers around him fight with all their might, and cheered everyone up loudly: "Brothers, hold on for a while, and soon the Bishop will prepare the large-scale magic."
"Don't worry, boss, we can withstand another wave." Qiao pulled out the long sword inserted into the fire demon's chest under his feet, and opened his mouth and smiled at Hanseil. Although it was difficult and dangerous, everyone fought happily under Hanseil's leadership.
With a whoosh, the short-handed axe in Hansel's hand flew towards Qiao. He was slightly stunned. The axe flew past his cheek and slashed into the head of a sneak attacking sheep-headed demon.
"Hey, Joe, be careful, this is the battlefield."
Bang! The alloy crossbow string made a sound, and a fire demon behind Hansel caught an arrow in his throat. The spell that had been chanted halfway through his mouth was immediately blocked. At the same time, the huge fireball energy in his hand began to be disordered, and then a huge explosion occurred, and a three-headed hellhound next to him flew away.
"Boss, too, so do you, be careful." Qiao smiled and raised his eyebrows, and put on a row of crossbow arrows again.
The leader's role is very powerful. With the performance of Hansel and Qiao, the demon hunter barely withstood this wave of demons. His skillful cooperation has caused considerable damage to the demons. Of course, the demon's strength is definitely not weak. Five demon hunters have told their teammates this with their lives.
"Why aren't you ready yet?" Qiao asked while panting. He felt a trace of abnormality. The firepower of the troops on both sides became weaker and weaker. If Louis did not take action, he would be surrounded by the demons.
Hanselge, who is a spiritual pillar, blocked the axe of a Minotaur, shouted without looking back, "Who will ask the bishop, how long will it take to prepare?"
Qiao struggled to cut down the demon facing a female witch hunter, and shouted at the female warrior who was obviously a little weak, "Paula, go, hurry up."
The female warrior nodded gasping and did not refuse. She knew that it would be useless to stay in her current state. When she turned around and was about to run to the hill, she was surprised to find that there was no living person in the place where she used to be a command post except for the corpses.
"Boss, Qiao, something happened to the command center!" The female soldier who didn't know the details at the moment shouted loudly.
"What!?" Hansel's companion's shouting shocked Hansel, almost being split by an axe, and he almost avoided the axe blade. He seized the opportunity to cut the Minotaur's throat, and then quickly turned around and looked back.
As the comrades said, there were corpses spread out on the top of the hill, but the keen leader of the demon hunter did not find the iconic dress of the Holy See. No matter what, it seems that there will be no reinforcements, and the rest of the battle has to be decided by himself.
Seeing that the remaining companions around had almost exhausted their physical strength, Hansel gritted his teeth and ordered loudly: "First fight back the enemy's attack, then everyone alternately covers the retreat, and retreat to the command post first to see the situation."
With the last breath, he finally killed the demon and fled. The demon hunters supported each other and retreated to the command post.
Commander, staff officer, special agency agent, lying here, the bodies of almost everyone except the people from the Holy See.
Hansel and Joe, who have rich hunting experience, looked at the corpse and couldn't help but frown. With one sword piercing the heart, there were almost no other wounds. Moreover, the wound of this width did not look like it was caused by a demon. Could it be...
"Boss, this person is still alive." A voice came from over there.
Hansel and Joe hurried over, they needed to know the truth.
"David?!" Joe recognized the survivor's face, took out the kettle and quickly fed him saliva.
David, who had lost too much blood, woke up leisurely, looked at Qiao's face, and asked weakly: "Where am I? Have the battle been over? How is the situation?"
Hansel took the conversation and introduced to him, "We have repelled a wave of demons, but the situation is not optimistic. The command was taken down, the armored brigade was all scrambled, and it will be wiped out soon. What exactly happened here? We must retreat."
"The Holy See...the Holy See...snatched us..."
"What?!" "This is impossible!" exclaimed by other demon hunters. This sentence subverted their beliefs since childhood and represented how the Holy See, a just church, could do such a thing.
Only Hansel and Joe did not talk. Joe knew David, who was an upright person and he would not lie, while Hansel had guessed the answer from the corpse. David's words only confirmed his guess.
"Enough, although this is unbelievable to you, all signs have proved this. Look at the wound on the corpse, does it seem like a demon can cause it?" Hansel calmly stopped the demon hunters who were trying to question David.
"Why did the Bishop do this?" Some witch hunters still couldn't believe this.
"Probably he found out that he could no longer win. What are we? The witch hunter is just an external organization of the Holy See. To put it bluntly, we are just a dog raised by the Holy See. Why has the Holy See never cared about our life and death for so many years until this demon invasion?" After being slapped by reality, Hansel finally figured out everything.
"The reason why the Holy See gives all of it to us this time is just because they don't want to lose their core strength. As for us, they don't care how much we lose. Since we landed in the United States, we have been at the forefront. Now they need to retreat, so we naturally need to help them get time to retreat."
Hansel stopped the witch hunter who wanted to argue and continued, "Don't think that the Holy See has given us some good intentions. They don't use these equipment at all. If they give us, they can get so many helpers. Why not?"
The entire command post fell into silence, and Qiao asked, "Why did they kill David and the others? Just retreat, just re-arrange the defense line and then fight."
Hansel glanced at David and smiled bitterly: "I'm not sure about this, but I guess that Bishop Louis has never really experienced war. At most, it's just to exorcism or crush some small demons with his strength. These generals of the academic sect will appear wise and powerful when the battle goes well, but when they really encounter adversity or even desperate situations, they can do anything for their own lives."
"Think about it, if the demons solve all of us, then they will not say anything that will escape." Hansel glanced at David and smiled bitterly, "I'm more curious about how you escaped their hands."
