Chapter 69 Killing the Scouts
Under the hazy night.
Sauron's figure flew out, shuttled non-stop in the dense tropical jungle, and moved towards a distant location at high speed. He is no stranger to this kind of terrain. When he came to the Outer Islands to complete a legendary level mission, Sauron also fought against the top tracker of the aborigines here. This group of guys have very powerful tracking abilities, they can track targets through footprints, smells, environments, etc., even leading Sauron to fight with them has improved a lot of tracking skills.
Slap!
Sauron's toes tapped lightly on a big tree, and then slowly landed on the ground.
There are many chaotic footprints in front of me. Although they are covered up by weeds, the traces left after moving at high speed and changing positions are still very obvious. Sauron raised his hand and pushed through the grass to search, and saw traces of something being dragged away, a bit like the traces left by his heels. He found a little dark red blood, but not too much, it seemed that the battle was over soon. Sauron could already imagine the situation at that time. The pirate scouts he sent were suddenly attacked, and most of them were killed before they had time to react. Then one of them escaped successfully, while the other scouts were dragged away.
"They all look like masters!"
There was a cold light in Sauron's eyes, and a cruel expression appeared on his face, and he said slowly: "Get rid of these scouts first, it seems that they are the elite of the indigenous tribe!"
Fighting in the jungle is not the same as fighting on flat ground.
The most common ones here are encounter and lurking battles. Even a fourth-level professional may die at the hands of a low-level professional who is proficient in tracking and hiding. Because there are too many environments that can be ambushed here, and there are many natural traps that can be used, many clever trackers can kill other professionals above five levels here. The most dangerous ability of these indigenous people is to track and hide traps, and then they use blow darts and hidden weapons and so on.
but!
This time they may not be so lucky. Because rogues are also good at this!
Sauron advanced quickly along the traces of the grass. His tracking ability was not very good, but it would not be so easy to lose track of the traces left today. A clever ranger can even track the traces left a few days ago, and even distinguish what kind of enemy left behind, so Sauron has always attached great importance to tracking skills. He walked quickly along the grass, and he could be sure that none of the elite natives returned to the tribe. Because they couldn't know the number of Sauron's men if they were not close to the camp.
—— "Shadow hides!"
After Sauron crossed a stream, his figure gradually disappeared into the night.
He heard a little movement.
It's screams!
It seems that not all the pirate scouts sent out during the day were killed by them, and one or two were brought over alive by them. A trace of killing intent appeared in Sauron's eyes, his whole body was shrouded in shadow, and he approached the mountain wall where some screams came from in front of him. There are many places in the overseas islands that resemble the terrain of the Irish coastline, and the landform structure here is completely different from that of the southern continental shelf. What Sauron saw was a natural cave, and it seemed that the enemy was quite familiar with the nearby terrain. This cave should have been visited by no one for a long time.
It looked a little dark inside, and the cave wasn't that deep.
Sauron heard a slight scream again, and saw a faint fire in the cave, as if there was a corner in the cave.
He didn't sneak in recklessly.
Sauron reached out and touched the ground, carefully observing his surroundings. Dark vision allowed him to see as clearly as day at night, and soon he discovered a rather clever alarm trap. The natives are very cunning, and their living environment is also very harsh, like this kind of guy who can easily destroy the pirate scouts sent by Sauron. It is impossible to be completely unprepared at night.
Sauron's trap skills are not enough!
He glanced at it and felt that he might not be able to dismantle the trap successfully, and he didn't make any noise. And even if he was lucky enough to tear it down. It also takes too long. All I saw was that Sauron stretched out his hand and clung to the edge of the cave, and then climbed in bit by bit along the corner almost in the air, and just happened to be stuck at a distance of about one or two centimeters to avoid the alarm trap.
People who touch the trap will be alarmed immediately!
The screams continued.
There are broken stones in the cave, and Sauron must move carefully. He heard the common language and the aboriginal language, but he couldn't hear what was said clearly because it was interrupted by screams.
The other party seemed to be tortured!
Sauron didn't dare to be too convincing, his figure approached little by little in the darkness, and as he turned a corner, the situation in front of him appeared in his eyes. He saw five aborigines with oil paint on their bodies. The skin of these aborigines was darker, but they were not black people, but a mixture of black people and Indians. The bone structure of these guys Relatively thick, obviously thicker than the skeleton frame of the mainland race. They were torturing a pirate scout. The pirate being tortured was already bloody and bloody, his appearance couldn't be distinguished at all, and his breathing was also very weak. It seemed that he couldn't last much longer.
Next to it was a different-looking native, apparently without paint.
A cold light appeared in Sauron's eyes!
Because he recognized that this native was one of his escaped slaves, and because he knew the common language, he was helping to translate the tortured words, and told them the tortured information in the native language.
One, two, three, four, five.
Sauron's eyes were full of murderous intent. He quietly touched the past and approached the enemy who had been asking questions and looked like the leader of the aborigines.
--"Backstab!"
——"Shadow Attack!"
A icy cold light suddenly appeared!
Sauron's figure emerged from the shadows, and the legendary scimitar Bingdean flashed a cold light, instantly piercing the heart of the aborigine leader, and the point of the knife pierced through the chest from the back, the other party's expression was full of astonishment, and it was too late to change, just like that He was killed by Sauron's hand.
A row of data quickly emerged:
"The shadow hides successfully!"
"Shadow attack launched!"
"Backstab activated!"
"Successfully launch a backstab, causing 116 (+10) points of puncture damage to the target!...Pierces the target's heart!...Triggers the judgment of the death saving throw!...The judgment of the target's death saving throw failed!..."
"Target dead!"
"Drain the target's soul energy and gain 3250 killing experience points."
………………
With the data of killing experience emerging.
Sauron immediately guessed the general strength of the opponent in his mind. It should be an enemy with a professional level of 15 or above, and a leader in the indigenous tribe. The opponent seemed to have more than a hundred health points, but he failed the death saving throw judgment because of the pierced heart, so he couldn't resist for a while before being killed like some enemies that Sauron had encountered in the past.
——"Sword Poses: Whirling Dance!"
A backstab killed the leader of the enemy with a sneak attack. Sauron didn't retreat. On the contrary, he rushed forward, and another scimitar appeared out of thin air in both hands, and then it spun around suddenly, and the light of the knife slashed towards his eyes. the other two enemies.
Caught off guard!
This is the most common reaction under a sneak attack. Many people have greatly reduced their ability to evade and parry because they were caught off guard.
This is the time to test your abilities the most.
An aborigine almost subconsciously turned sideways to avoid it, and then rolled to open the distance, but the other aborigine was a little slower, and was directly slashed in the chest by Sauron, even the lung lobe was cut open a large piece. The former is an aborigine who has the expertise in evasion, while the latter obviously does not have any powerful evasion expertise, and will inevitably slow down when encountering unexpected situations.
Suo Suo!
Facing Sauron who suddenly appeared and killed the leader, the natives reacted very quickly.
They began to fight back quickly.
However, instead of pulling out a weapon, he quickly pulled out a blowgun. With a few faint cold lights, the blow arrows like steel needles flew out. They hit Sauron's body, but they didn't get up. to the effect it should have.
——"Stone Skin Technique!"
The blow darts failed to break through the protective stone skin on Sauron's body, and these strong anesthetic blow darts couldn't work at all.
Dang bang block!
The blowing arrow fell to the ground, but Sauron suddenly jumped out and slashed at the seriously injured enemy.
A row of data quickly emerged:
"Shadow attack launched!"
"You dealt 56 (+10) slash damage to the target! ... You dealt 26 slash damage to the target! ..."
"Target dead!"
"Drain the target's soul energy and gain 2150 killing experience points."
………………
Sauron's knife is extremely fast!
Almost at the same time that the Ice Death in his right hand was slashing at the enemy, the scimitar in his left hand was also slashing at the opponent's abdomen. Sauron, who has mastered [Advanced Two-Weapon Combat], can almost do something similar to "fighting each other left and right." 'The effect, the scimitar controlled by both hands can completely fight independently. As soon as he killed the native in front of him, his left hand swung the knife almost immediately, blocking the attack from the side, and then he bowed forward and swung the knife with his right hand, slashing at the enemy's arm.
Dang bang block!
With a splash of blood, three fingers were cut off.
thump.
Sauron's two knives turned into cold light, turned around and chopped off half of his palm, and at the same time a distorted shadow appeared beside him, and then he saw two heads fall to the ground one after another.
——"Shadow Attack!"
——"Summon Shadow!"
——"Sword Power: Beheading!"
Sauron's gaze was cold, without the slightest hesitation. When the shadow summoned in front of him entangled the enemy, he swung his knife and slashed at the opponent's head.
thump!
A headless corpse fell to the ground, Sauron was covered in blood, and there was only one enemy left in front of him.
