Demon Lord

Chapter 161 The Herd Attacks

Around midnight, Nata and the other three wood elves all heard the signal from their nearby companions and rushed away immediately.

From a long distance, Nata could smell a strong smell of blood. When she arrived at the camp, she glanced around and saw four corpses on the ground and a moaning human mercenary who had been shot in both legs...

How is this going?

The wood elves who came afterward were a little caught off guard by the sight, but Hugo, who sent the signal, replied in a dazed way: Take... take the man back first, I will tell the village chief when I go back...

Did you do it? This... is this the human who attacked Aix in the morning?

Several elves exclaimed when they checked the corpse, and then pulled Hugo to ask this and that, but Nata stepped directly in front of the corpse of a mercenary who had three arrows stuck in his body and was no longer breathing. When she swept across the eagle feathers of the long arrow, her expression changed slightly.

Reaching out and pulling out one, Nata gently pinched the faint notch on the arrow tail...

he did it

Inexplicably, Nata clenched the arrow in her hand, and an impulse appeared in the heart of Gujing Wubo.

She immediately looked around, in the dark jungle, where is the shadow of that guy?

Among the dead mercenaries, only one was killed by an arrow, and the remaining three were directly hacked to death in close combat. The most exaggerated one was the guy who lost one arm and one leg. The blood splattered on the ground showed the brutality of the battle. …

The wood elves had ugly expressions. Hunting is hunting, and killing is killing. Seeing such a corpse, they were not very comfortable with it, and they couldn't get an answer to Hugo Zhengtai's question... He seemed to be frightened, He hesitated and refused to say anything, all he wanted to do was go back to the village.

Not long after, more wood elves rushed here, and immediately discussed how to bring the corpse and the mercenary back, but Nata, who arrived here first... stood silently, just staring at the arrow in her hand, His eyes flickered, not knowing what he was thinking.

On a big tree three hundred meters away, Rody yawned, never expecting that his former mentor would hold his arrow in a thoughtful state. At this time, Rody was flipping through the 【Reputation Column】with raised eyebrows, and muttered in surprise: How can this increase your reputation?

The record in the [Reputation Column] in his field of vision showed that he had just added 4 points to the Rose Cross reputation. He frowned and thought for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion... Those few greedy mercenaries may have something to do with the hostile forces of the Rose Cross. .

But as for what kind of power it was, he didn't bother to guess. If he didn't die, he wouldn't die. This group of people robbed him, and he really couldn't blame others.

When it was getting late, he closed the panel and lay down on the tree to get ready to sleep.

Stretching his waist, Rody thought of all the threats and lures he had made to Hugo just now, and somehow wanted to laugh.

In my memory, Hugo has been a defense member of Elsa Village since 590. Because of his straightforward temper, he always offends others, so he became the captain of the defense in 596. It sounds hard, but it doesn’t matter , Wandering around the village all day long, occasionally sending out small tasks, the life is quite nourishing.

But at that time, Elsa Village was already open to humans, but now, Roddy is counting on him to be a bridge to communicate with the wood elves—although Hugo, who tends to be angry, seems unreliable, but in Roddy In Di's heart, he is better than Nata, who is like a gourd.

What kind of plane is this mercenary group? Is it possible that they still want to go to war with the wood elves? Everyone is really short-sighted. Opening a business route for tax sharing can make more money than selling slaves...

Shu Yuyuan was not as comfortable as a tent, so Luo Di couldn't help complaining a few words at this time, but within a few seconds after speaking, he suddenly sat up with his eyes wide open, his eyes seemed to be filled with the light of gold coins like...

If he can be the first one to open the business road in Elsa Village, wouldn't he make a lot of money?

It's fucking 58b now, isn't such an opportunity right in front of him?

next morning.

Lord Kevin, two of the four teams that went to explore the Wood Elf village fought with them. Three were killed, seven were injured, and a five-member team lost contact. Also, this is what the scouts sent today Letter, an urgent letter from Lord Garkad.

The casualties were not low, but it was not unbearable, but the main reason was that the letters in his hands were relatively large-Jakad was Gallup's boss back then.

Kevin yawned, took the letter, and said casually: It seems that they can use it, so let's start according to yesterday's plan. First go to those three places to confirm the location of 'big guy, be careful not to die too much. People, and then lead it directly to the village, let this group of elves help us 'live,' that is.

As he spoke, he drew his sword and drew a sword flower. A dense frosty power emerged from the sword, and the temperature in the air dropped a little accordingly—Tell them, when the village is in hand, those elves will do whatever they want. To deal with them, let them do whatever they want, life or death. That's it, let's make arrangements.

Yes, my lord.

The deputy head has long been accustomed to such cruel orders, and bowed his head like a puppet to take orders——after a while, the noise of the mercenaries became louder, and they shouted angrily to carry out the mission.

Kevin looked at the mercenaries in the distance with a playful face, and turned back to the tent.

Although he has always kept a distance from these subordinates, Kevin can always find a way to balance and control them easily, which can be regarded as a deformed personality charm. Although his methods were bloody and criticized by others, since he killed a family of five civilians for a morsel of food at the age of sixteen, Kevin has long been too lazy to care about what others think of him.

In his eyes, human life is really worthless and should be discarded.

He leisurely opened the letter in his hand, and after only a few glances, his brows frowned slightly——

Such a humble archer can defeat Gallup? It's too bad luck.

Apparently, the Snake Cross has gradually investigated the cause of Gallup's death through its intricate intelligence network, and after more than a month, it finally locked its target on the inconspicuous figure.

Roddy? Scout Captain? Did you make a mistake?

Cursing his lips, a ball of flames burst out of Kevin's palm, burning the letter paper to ashes, I'm also asked to speed up the progress of the mission, and I'm also asked to settle accounts with this Lao Shizi scout captain, and to inquire about Akasha's News? Master Jakkad is really amazing, his ability to dictate orders is better than anyone else, tsk tsk.

Although he complained, he still walked out of the tent and shouted to the mercenaries who were going to scout the team: Hurry up, all three teams set out to explore the road together, complete the task one day earlier, and get three silver coins more in salary

Amidst the chaotic cheers, the mercenaries rushed out of the camp and rushed towards the reserved location.

If you're in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. For these three things, it's a bit tempting to find a girl like Akasha.

Kevin muttered to himself, and went back to the tent.

Naturally, this loyal lackey of the Viper Cross would not know that Akasha, who had been labeled a traitor by the sect, was only three kilometers away from him at this moment.

The Iron Horse Mercenary Group with only eight members seems to be much more miserable than the Blood Shield Mercenary Group. They were poorly equipped, and even the tents in the camp were covered with patches, but fortunately, the members of the regiment were more friendly and took care of each other. Although their strength was not strong, since Akasha joined, They finally had the strength to try their luck on the outskirts of the forest.

It has to be said that having a bright pastor in the team is a very powerful boost for this kind of team. As long as you keep your breath for minor injuries and serious injuries, the wounds can be healed under the action of healing arts. Although the effect will be weakened after frequent use of divine arts, it is especially important for mercenary groups active in the field to preserve their lives and combat effectiveness.

At this moment, in the small camp with four tents, Akasha was waving goodbye to his companions who were about to go hunting—there were eight people in the team, and the hunting task was very difficult for a woman like Akasha who had no experience in living in the jungle. There is no need to participate, so every time she stays at the camp with another companion.

Kasha, are you hurt? You look bad.

The mercenary who stayed behind sniffed, and looked at Akasha with emotions that he was trying to suppress—although the woman wearing a veil in front of her was very beautiful, and her figure was even more outrageously plump, but everyone knew that She is the biggest guarantee that the current team can hunt in the Silent Whispering Forest, so no one will disrespect her, and everyone is very polite.

I'm a pastor, so of course I won't get hurt.

Akasha, who used a pseudonym, shook her head. Even though she was wearing a veil, through the exposed skin, one could imagine that her face was actually very pale. Her dark circles looked like pandas, and her speech was a little weak.

This answer is quite reasonable, the mercenary only thought that he had an illusion, looked up at the cloudy sky, and went outside the camp to watch.

Akasha, who stayed here, breathed a sigh of relief, trying hard to suppress the side effects of anemia—the scourge is still going on, needless to say the pain every night, what worries her even more is... Since he almost lost his life in Hollier City last time, his body has never recovered.

Hurry up and finish the mission and go back...

Akasha, whose lips had lost all color, could only pray silently. In this forest, she couldn't tell the direction at all. The only choice was to wait for the mercenary group to finish hunting and return to Kig Town—to earn some salary, she needed more rest and full meals. She is very clear... If she survives with healing techniques all day long under such difficult conditions, she may not live for long.

With such a sense of urgency in her heart, Akasha couldn't help worrying about her future path: After being rescued by Captain Roddy, she left in order to completely break with her past self with determination... But the shadows of Viper Cross and Rose Cross cannot fade away after all. If you want to live in the future, you must either solve the trouble head-on, or continue to linger on. Such a problem is imminent...

In the quiet camp, Akasha was thinking about such a problem, but suddenly she stood up and looked around suspiciously.

The surrounding sounds seemed to disappear all of a sudden.

This feeling is like being suddenly blocked by someone's ears. He clearly saw the giant tree swaying with the wind, but the original rustling sound could not be heard for a while... Akasha raised her hand and released the Holy Shield, and immediately Seeing the sentry mercenaries rushing over, he looked around suspiciously, and when he opened his mouth to speak, his voice seemed to come from far away——

What's going on?

Akasha shook her head, she didn't understand what happened, she just instinctively felt heart palpitations... that was the fear of the existence of the high level of the food chain——

That is, in the next moment, the forest in the distance seemed to shake together, and then hundreds of thousands of birds were seen flying towards the sky, and the originally gloomy sky seemed to rise up in an instant. A black cloud scattered in all directions. The flock of birds making the originally peaceful deep forest look like a doomsday scene when a natural disaster strikes

That is

The mercenary holding the long sword looked forward solemnly, as birds whizzed past his head, and after the noise gradually disappeared, a dull humming reverberated in his ears——he suddenly Thinking of something, his face lost all blood in an instant, he turned his head and shouted: Run, run!

It's the rush of the herd
