Gnolls can't practice martial arts

Chapter 70 Investigation

Chapter 70 Investigation
After Razor learned the principle of shadow jumping from the leader Broken Tooth, he vaguely perceived the source of shadow power, the shadow plane.

He decided to set off straight away, to scout out the large ogre encampment alone.

During this period of time, in fact, he didn't manage the original team of gnolls and rogues very much. It was mainly Trier who led the guards of the dragon's lair.

So after the razor went offline for a short time, he went directly to the dragon's lair. After about midnight, he reached the hills on the north bank of the dam, and then walked for more than an hour to the dragon's lair.

"Trill, Lord Brokentooth is dead. From today onwards, the team of gnolls and rogues will be changed to Shadow Blades. I am the captain, and you are the vice-captain. You should replenish the Shadow Blades team to fifty gnolls as soon as possible. The main requirement is to be able to perceive the shadow power!"

Trier replied:

"Captain Razor, there are now a total of twenty gnolls in Shadow Blade, but only twelve have sensed the power of the shadow, and it will take time for them to successfully escape into the shadow."

Razor is expressionless:

"All members of Shadow Blade must be able to perceive the power of shadow! This is the initial condition for joining Shadow Blade, and only by mastering the ability to escape into the shadows can you become an official member. I will apply to the lord, and official members can enjoy it first." Fresher meat, no need to eat hard dried fish every day!"

During this period of time, the hunting activities of the Brokentooth collar have stopped, and the main food is dried fish. When the wolves were starving before, let alone dried fish, just a piece of meat can fill their stomachs. Now they don’t go hungry every day. Eating dried fish every day will also miss the delicious, warm flesh and blood.

This is the change. If you are full, according to the 'veteran' jackals like Trier or Gaz, after two days of starvation, you will feel that the dried fish is really delicious.

However, there was no denying that fresh meat tasted better, so it was feasible for Razor to propose such a favorable condition at this time.

The two gnolls talked again, such as asking Trier to strengthen the practice of escaping into the shadows, and then Razor left.

When passing by the iron mine, Razor made a brief appearance to say hello to Breeze Cleaner, Kobold Mars, Ogre Second Captain Dulong, and Goblin Weeks, and then continued eastward.

As for Monk Bajie, I am afraid he is still on his way here.

. . . . . .

By dawn, Razor came to the large ogre camp where he and several other players failed last time.

Since it is daytime, the razor's escape into the shadows is only level 4, so if there are enemies with high perception, it is possible to find the hazy shadows in the corner.

This large ogre camp is well-constructed, and the outer walls are just enough to make people eat whales.

The foundation of this wall is almost entirely made of stone, and it can be seen that there are massive stone blocks and gaps between stones.

In fact, the foundation of this wall is to excavate the ground nearly one and a half meters, and then pile up stones, and insert a five-meter-high log with a diameter of half a meter, using clay as a short-term coagulant.

Then the wall stopped building after it was two meters above the ground, and all the clay that was used as a coagulant was converted into stone by using the mud into stone.

In this way, except for a small number of gaps deliberately left to prevent heat expansion and cold contraction, the foundation of the wall can be said to be a whole big rock, which is indestructible.

Coupled with the log on the top, the entire wall is five meters high, and there are a large number of wooden arrow towers and a small number of stone high platforms inside the wall.

On each wooden arrow tower is a gnoll patrolling, and on each stone high platform is an ogre.

Each wooden arrow tower is about 50 meters apart, and there is a stone high platform for every ten wooden arrow towers.

All wooden turrets are attached to the logs at the top of the wall, and all stone terraces are integrated into the stone foundation at the bottom of the wall.

Like the camp built by the monk Bajie, this large ogre camp is also 50 meters away from the wall, and there are almost no bushes. It is impossible to sneak in, and the enemy will be found soon.

Obviously, Monk Bajie learned this after coming here last time.

Moreover, there is a road at the main gate of the camp that leads to the human business road. Razor even thinks that this road is more evenly shared than the business road itself, and a lot of wheel marks can be vaguely seen.

Seemingly impossible to infiltrate during the day, Razor began circling the camp, trying to get an idea of ​​its size.

It took Razor all morning to discover that this super camp covers an area of ​​at least two kilometers, but it only has three walls. Except for the front wall facing the south, the walls on the east and west sides extend directly into the Hengduan Mountains. The terrain merged and it was impossible to climb at all.

After a little calculation, Razor found that there are more than 40 arrow towers behind each wall, and there are more than 100 arrow towers on the three walls. At least two gnolls are needed for each arrow tower. There are more than 200 arrow towers alone. a gnoll.

Then there are about a dozen high stone platforms, and I don't know what is the use of an ogre standing guard on the high platform.

Razor looked at the stone platform from a distance, but didn't find the reason. He stepped back further, and then kicked his feet nimbly, climbing up the treetop.

Looking towards the camp, although the line of sight was blocked by the five-meter-high wall, they still couldn't see the situation inside the camp, but what they could see was that a branch of the mountain range extended into the camp.

In other words, this camp was deliberately built around the branch of the mountain range. From this point of view, Razor estimated that there may be a piece of minerals in the mountain range.

Since the walls of this camp were flawless, Razor simply headed towards the Hengduan Mountains.

Because from the side of the mountain branch, there may be a chance to sneak into the camp, at least the chance is greater.

After getting down from the tree, Razor has been in the state of escaping into the shadows. Since last night, he has been repeatedly escaping into the shadows, trying to completely cross the gap between the material plane and the shadow plane, and enter the shadow plane .

He felt that he was very close, but now he was scouting around the ogre camp, and it was not suitable for him to repeatedly enter and exit the state of escaping into the shadows.

Because the terrain of the mountain branch surrounded by the camp is relatively steep, and he was worried about alerting the possible patrol guards, Razor took a long detour, planning to detour from the nearest main mountain range and enter the mountain branch in a few hours.

But when Razor entered the main mountains, something unexpected happened.

Razor saw a group of human adventurers. There were only eight human adventurers in this group. There was only one mage with a staff. The rest seemed to be melee. They were building a camp, because it was not long before evening.

There are 4 levels of Razor's Into the Shadow, so you are not afraid of being discovered outside the camp.

Razor quickly identified all these nine people and found that these are all NPC adventurers, and their levels are all around level 15, which seems to be a very elite team.

But unexpectedly, besides the mage, there was also a priest wearing heavy armor and holding an ax in both hands.

Then there are three fighters, a hunter, and two rogues who also mastered the escape into the shadows.

One of the two-handed sword fighters named Hayes has level 17 and should be the leading captain.

Razor had been listening to them carefully, but they said little, and few words were useful.

These people quickly set up the simple camp, and then began to prepare dinner. Two marching pots were placed on the fire, and they began to add water and dried meat to the marching pot, and took out some vegetable-like vegetables from the dimension bag. plant.

Razor couldn't tell, but he could tell, chewing on the rations, that the meal must be delicious.

After another half an hour, Razor finally heard a few different words:
"Hayes, the two of them went over there to investigate, why haven't they come back, or let's eat first."

The two-handed sword warrior Hayes frowned:
"These two guys don't know what they're doing. They said that it's enough to investigate the vicinity. Did they go to the branch of the mountain range?"

At this time the mage said:

"It doesn't matter, I'm hungry, if you don't eat, I'll eat first."

The mage retrieved a clean, thin steel dinner plate from nowhere, and began to fork food from the marching pot with a silver fork.

So Hayes, the two-handed swordsman, also said:

"Forget it, let's eat first."

Before the dinner was over, one of their teammates came back.

Razor identified it as a level 16 rogue.

Seeing his teammates come back, Hayes asked:
"Keil, why are you the only one coming back? Where's Merritt?"

Kiel, the rogue who just walked into the camp, said in surprise:

"Didn't he come back? The two of us are investigating separately. He should finish the investigation faster than me!"

Keel finished and started to join the dinner, while the others slowed down instead.

The pastor said:

"God of Patience! May my teammates be on their way home."

The atmosphere in the camp seemed a bit obscure, even Razor could feel it. The human who didn't come back was probably dead.

Another warrior said:
"Damn it! I knew this mission was not easy. We couldn't break through from Adaan, and it might be difficult to break through from the ogre camp. Merritt probably bumped into a patrolling ogre!

"I said that the branch of the mountain range cannot be unprotected, maybe the guards are even stricter."

But soon, Hayes, the two-handed sword warrior, glared at the complaining warrior, and then Hayes said:

"This mission will continue. We have taken the deposit from the Blue Sword Chamber of Commerce. If the mission is not completed, we will not be able to accept other missions at all!

"Anyway, let's hurry up and eat. You two warriors are night guards. We sleep until the early morning and wake up. Ogres also have to sleep. Their defense level at night is definitely not as high as during the day, at least there will be no patrols outside.

"Let's go find Merritt. Whether it's a corpse or a living person, it's best to bring Luskan."

As the dinner continued, these people seemed to have forgotten about the disappearance of their teammates, and started talking again. The mage said:
"Hey, how do you think Adaan did it? A human being can actually trade those precious minerals with the ogre tribe for a long time. I can't figure out why they can trust each other."

Then the pastor said:

"God of Patience! I feel that Ada'an must have been controlled by the evil ogre, and even Ada'an may have sincerely surrendered to this ogre tribe long ago. These transactions are just to give the ogre The Horde provides more food. If we have the chance, we'd better get rid of Adaan directly!"

The razor hidden in the dark thinks that it is very likely that there is a mine in the branch of the mountain range. The ogres sold it to the city of Luskan through this human named Adaan, and then got a lot of food, so that it is possible to support such a Many ogre and gnoll stomachs.

But what kind of mine is it?
