Cthulhu Fantasy : I Am The Great Old One

C99 Two Gunners



C99 Two Gunners

1The next morning.    

    

Looking at the neat rows of green-robed humans holding rifles in front of him, Du Kang felt his head hurting again.    

    

This was not because these humans had stirred up trouble again. In fact, during this period of time, the behavior of these humans had become more and more orderly. After Du Kang beat them up, it became more and more difficult for him to make up excuses.    

    

But these humans were too gluttonous.    

    

There weren't many resources in the town to begin with, and they didn't have any external support either. Although Du Kang had let these humans reclaim farmland in the valley, there was still a long time before the harvest.    

    

Even though Du Kang had let these humans carry out the ration system, there was still not much food left.    

    

In other words, if Du Kang still could not get some food for these humans, these humans would soon turn red from hunger and start killing each other.    

    

This was also the reason why Du Kang only prepared rifles for these humans and wanted to let them out. Originally, according to Du Kang's plan, he would have to produce light machine guns and mortars to slightly protect these humans.    

    

But now, there shouldn't be any problem fighting those violent attackers outside...    

    

If there really was no other way, he would do it himself.    

    

"Lowly human!" Du Kang shouted at the green-robed men in front of him in a muffled voice, "There is no more food in the valley! Those bastards outside are still firing at us every day! Fight during the day! They're still shooting at us at night!"    

    

" Tell me! " Du Kang waved his arms and legs. "What should you do?"    

    

"Hit him!"    

    

"Hit him!"    

    

"Hit him!"    

    

The green-robed men let out fanatical roars, regardless of gender or age.    

    

"Alright!"    

    

Du Kang gently pressed down with his left hand, and all the humans on the scene stopped shouting. There was no sound at all.    

    

"Remember! This time, let's fight! Just for food! All operations were under their command! All seized and distributed! No adultery! No pillaging!"    

    

Du Kang stretched out his right arm, the blade of the blade flowing with a dim light.    

    

"Whoever violates the rules, I will chop off his head!"    

    

"Yes! The noble Son of the Earth!"    

    

The people in green robes shouted in unison.    

    

"Alright!"    

    

He raised his blade.    

    

"Let's go!"    

    

————————    

    

In the camp of the Alliance Army.    

    

Looking at the ripples at the entrance of the valley, he felt dizzy from the soreness of his waist and back.    

    

The analysis of the barrier had already come to a conclusion. The barrier could indeed be destroyed by force, but that kind of violence needed to be applied to the entire valley in order to destroy the barrier.    

    

And to be used on the entire valley, it also needed to shatter the barrier... This was impossible.    

    

Simply put, unless this valley was thrown into the sea, and the water pressure crushed the barrier, there was no way to break this layer of damn thing.    

    

However, the enemy's resources should also have been used up a lot... But there was a group of cultists inside, they did not have any moral values. If the resources were used up, they might be able to survive through cannibalism.    

    

Could it be that they really had to surround this place and wait for the cultists in the valley to kill each other?    

    

He rubbed the space between his eyebrows in distress.    

    

"I'm sorry."    

    

A cold female voice came from beside his ear, he was hugged from behind.    

    

"My sister and I are unable to break this barrier..."    

    

"It's alright..." He felt the slightly trembling body behind him, "It doesn't matter even if I can't break it. I am only thinking about how long I will be trapped for... Wait a minute."    

    

He stared blankly at the entrance to the valley in the distance.    

    

An alchemical bullet had just hit that place, but it didn't cause any ripples, but directly shot in.    

    

The barrier disappeared.    

    

The barrier couldn't be broken by such a simple attack. Then...    

    

He shouted at the top of his lungs.    

    

"Enemy! Attack!"    

    

————————    

    

With a brand new rifle in hand, he crawled on top of the rock wall in a simple green robe and looked down at the enemy camp in the distance. Around him, there were even more people in green robes crawling on the ground.    

    

They couldn't go out of the valley. The space there was too narrow. The enemy's alchemy weapons could easily blast out a death zone at the valley entrance. No matter how many people there were, they could only die inside.    

    

Moreover, they weren't a lot of people.    

    

There were only two hundred and forty-three people in the entire valley. Including the old and the children.    

    

The lofty Son of the Earth originally didn't allow the elderly, women, and children to enter the battlefield, but this decision was strongly opposed when it was carried out.    

    

"I am not old enough to not be able to move!" An old woman in her sixties waved her crude gun angrily, "I do not know what age is! I only know that... that person is coming. Only after he came did my little grandson and I have a chance to live! The bastard from the church is not human at all! He sealed my shop! He even stole my goods! I'll teach them a lesson!"    

    

It was only later that he found out that the old woman was in the town's shooting shop. When the townspeople of Sunlisten Town retreated, the executors of the church directly snatched all the goods in the old woman's shop in order to prepare more weapons. They did not pay a single cent and only left a knife for the old woman to cut herself.    

    

One could not panic when faced with a situation. No matter how difficult the situation was, one could not take a needle out of a needle from the crowd. Once again, he understood how correct Son of the Earth's teachings were.    

    

And now...    

    

He looked at the tilted rock wall in front of him.    

    

It was very smooth and wouldn't hit anywhere.    

    

So...    

    

"For Son of the Earth!"    

    

He got up from the ground and jumped.    

    

————————    

    

In the camp of the Alliance Army.    

    

The moment he saw the barrier removed, he immediately gave the order. Now, all the alchemy cannons had been transferred over and aimed at the entrance of the valley.    

    

Under such firepower, the enemy would never have the chance to come out of the valley. The fierce cannon fire would kill everyone in that narrow space.    

    

It was also this valley that succeeded, but also the valley that lost... The entrance to that valley was too suitable for the cannon to play a role...    

    

He quietly waited, waiting for the enemy to appear.    

    

After a long time.    

    

Why hasn't he... Wait a minute.    

    

A huge and ferocious figure walked out from the valley.    

    

It was Evil God.    

    

"Fight!"    

    

"Bang! Bang! Bang. !...”    

    

A series of explosions rang out as the only entrance to the valley was completely covered by the intense artillery fire.    

    

However...    

    

A huge and ferocious figure walked out from the smoke.    

    

Wait a minute, why was it only Evil God?    

    

Those evil sects...    

    

"Enemy! Attack!"    

    

Gasps came from the side, followed by continuous gunshots and screams.    

    

He needed to calm down, there weren't many enemies. He calmed his emotions and fished out an alchemy equipment in the shape of a whistle from his body, pressing it against his throat.    

    

"There aren't many enemies!"    

    

He shouted loudly. With the aid of the alchemical device, his voice spread throughout the entire battlefield.    

    

"There aren't many enemies! Stay calm! Maintain order! We'll call them back!"    

    

However, he could not see what was happening at the front line. The enemy in the green robe was holding a delicate rifle. The three of them were in a group and they accurately shot every enemy in their line of sight. The hunters and executors also shot back. However, the poor range of the guns in their hands and the touching precision made it impossible for them to kill any of the green-robed men.    

    

Those green-robed men seemed to be waving invisible sickles. Every gunshot represented a life being reaped. There were also some hunters and executors who relied on their agile bodies and abilities to rush close to the green-robed men. However, they didn't have any chance to swing their swords and sabers. A few Bayonets that came from different directions easily pierced through their bodies.    

    

In less than three minutes, the front line of the alliance army had completely collapsed.    

    

The panicked hunters fled to the back. They didn't know that this would directly destroy the defense behind them. They only knew that they had to escape from the green-robed men and the threat of death.    

    

As the commander of the alliance army, he calmly issued an order, but no one listened to what he said.    

    

He lost... but there was still a chance.    

    

Before he became the commander of the allied army, he was the famous Evil God killer.    

    

Ordinary hunters and executors could not deal with those cultists, but he was different.    

    

There were not many cultists. As long as they killed some, their morale could be restored.    

    

He organized his equipment for the last time.    

    

"Don't think about leaving us behind and going by ourselves!"    

    

A mournful female voice came from beside him.    

    

He turned his head and saw a pair of sisters standing not far away. The younger sister who was not yet an adult was about to cry, and the older sister was calmly looking at him.    

    

"Didn't we agree that night that we would live and die together?"    

    

"Let's go." He rushed to the front line.    

    

The pair of sisters followed closely behind.    

    

"Let those cultists see what a real hunter is!"    

    

————————     2

    

Brandishing his greatsword, he easily cut a man in green in half, then raised his left hand slightly. A few men in green holding rifles next to him were burnt into charcoal.    

    

Beside him, the pair of sisters controlled the flames and frost and recklessly swung their attacks.    

    

One by one, the green-robed man fell to the ground.    

    

The firearms of the green-robed man were indeed powerful, but the strength of the firearms did not mean that the person was strong as well. A top hunter like him could already predict the trajectory of the enemy's attacks through the enemy's movements. He could even sense the killing intent to dodge and aim. Firearms were meaningless to him.    

    

So... Killing all these cultists was only a matter of time...    

    

"Bang!"    

    

A gunshot rang out, and a lump of blood burst out from his chest.    

    

How could this be... there was no killing...    

    

Using his last bit of strength, he looked in the direction where the bullet came from.    

    

The old white-haired woman with two rifles was aiming the other one at his head.    

    

So old. How could it be...    

    

"Bang!"
