The Amber Sword

Scene 103: Lure the Snake Out of Its Hole (2)

;

In Ke Jin's opinion, the silence in this valley was a bit eerie.

In fact, it doesn't like this silent state, because danger is always lurking under the calm waves. It is like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, which will jump out and bite you suddenly.

Ke Jin is a lizardman dragon-hunting cavalry detachment leader. In usual operational missions, the orders he receives are often direct and simple—attack or plunder—but the dragon-hunting cavalry occasionally serves as a reconnaissance unit. This is their One of the most annoying tasks, scouting is too dangerous, especially in the jungle, where professional skills often have more say than speed and flexibility.

Coggin also doesn't like situations where he can't play to his strengths.

It raised its head, and its narrow, diamond-shaped pupils reflected the white light of the morning sun. The warmth of the sun dispelled the last trace of coldness that remained after a night. As the concentration of the substance seeped into the cold blood of the lizard man, it couldn't help but shiver. The lizardman lieutenant shook his head in disgust. It used the lizardmen's unique nasal structure with a keen sense of smell to trace the unusual smell in the air - the order required them to search for traces of a group of humans, but where were those humans?

To the north of Chablis, there is a vast and boundless forest. To be honest, Ke Jin feels that it is a bit whimsical to find a few people in this forest.

But the lizardman lieutenant still carefully grasped the spear tightly, with his right hand forward, and his only three fingers pointed at the forest ahead. It made a series of high-frequency sounds, ordering its subordinates to spread out and attack the Silver Moon Demon Wolf.

But it didn't realize that it had made a mistake at this time.

It only realized this when Ke Jin sent his men into the strange forest and became silent.

But even if he reacted at this time, it seemed a little late. The lizard man wanted to retreat in a hurry - and at the same time, he was still thinking about how to make up a plan to attack its leader - the lizard man leader Heyou. Kil explained that four valuable dragoons were lost because of one of his own negligence.

This question is not easy to answer. Although Heyoukiel is a vulgar and unsociable upstart in the eyes of most of his subordinates, he is also a shrewd lizard man. Ke Jin knows that his leader is not easy to fool. . How would it answer? But it soon discovered that it didn't need to worry about this question.

Because when it turned around, it saw a human and an elf standing behind it. As for when they appeared there, Ke Jin had no idea at all. What it knew was that the elf staring at him coldly - no, that should be It's a silver elf. Recently, they often go to the Tomb of the Silver Elf King to cause trouble, and Ke Jin also gained some insights.

That silver elf exudes the unique aura of a peak gold level powerhouse.

The result of the battle is predictable. It is hard to imagine that five "weak" lizard cavalry have any room to resist in front of more than twenty golden peak warriors.

Therefore, Ke Jin had no choice but to surrender.

Sometimes a small mistake can kill a person.

But the only thing that made the lizardman lieutenant happy was that those who captured it seemed not to take its life for the time being. But unfortunately, this is just one of the many bad news that seems easier to accept. As a scout himself, Ke Jin knew very well that the reconnaissance troops would sometimes grab some tongues and let the prisoners live a little longer before getting the information they wanted. But their final fate is usually only one, and the scouts will not act together with burdens.

This sounds weird, but it is true. Sometimes death is not the most terrible thing.

If you don't tell the truth, those indifferent scouts will have many ways to make you taste something worse than death. As an experienced scout and an even more experienced lizardman bandit, Cojin was no stranger to what was to come.

But it is not afraid, because it is already ready to tell everything it knows as soon as the other party presses it.

Lizardmen have no moral integrity.

And the lizardmen who are bandits are even less likely to exist.

Its hands and feet were tightly tied with a rope, but it still raised its head and looked around carefully. However, Ke Jin quickly discovered a fact-if it was to catch the tongue, these people would not catch it too hard. A little less. The lizardman lieutenant soon saw that all his subordinates were dead, four of them, no more, no less. It is not an idiot and immediately realizes that its living situation may be a bit dangerous.

So who are they and what do they want to do?

Ke Jin was thinking about this problem, but suddenly his eyes darkened. The two humans and silver elves who had captured it before were already standing in front of it. The lizardman lieutenant immediately swallowed his saliva and rolled his eyes. If he could survive, he would be willing to do so no matter what. Silver Moon Demon Wolf Hand Beat

But the key is how can we save our lives?

While it was thinking about this profound question, Brando was also staring at it. Because Amber Sword is not a game where cards are played according to common sense, in fact, those players who initially moved from the past era of home games gradually figured out this rule after suffering all the losses.

Of course, these experiences are passed down in the process of gradual accumulation. Brando, who has experienced the post-virtual era, has naturally learned how to adapt to the way the world plays cards.

He first stood in front of the lizard man lieutenant, carefully scrutinizing the other person, and then smiled slightly.

He knelt down in front of Ke Jin, stretched out his hand and patted the other person's rough, narrow face, and said gently, "I know," he said, "You are thinking about what I will ask, so that you can tell me everything you have." What you know, and then beg me to spare your life, right?"

Ke Jin opened his mouth wide - revealing about a hundred sharp teeth - it felt as if he was ready to face all enemies, but what he didn't expect was that he was punched by his opponent and was bitten by a dog. Like mud. The lizard man shook his head. He couldn't figure out why this human knew what he was thinking, or whether he had the ability to read minds.

But if the opponent has such an ability, doesn't it mean that its only chance to save its own life is gone? Ke Jin couldn't help but tremble, and took a step back to say that it didn't expect a chance of survival, it only wanted these terrible enemies. It's enough if you don't torture it before it dies. It couldn't help but stare at Brando with its diamond-shaped pupils vigilantly.

"Are you afraid?" Brando looked at his mouth again and asked.

When he said this, he felt a low chuckle behind him. He recognized the voices of Roman and Antitina, as well as the pair of wild elf sisters, and then most of the Lubis mercenaries joined in. Brando couldn't help but feel a little annoyed for a moment, thinking that I said you should give me some face anyway, didn't you see that I was doing business?

But this was also a helpless thing. In fact, when he said these words to the lizard man for the first time, everyone present was shocked by him. But after experiencing it for the second time, or even the third time, everyone discovered that their lord was just pretending to be a ghost. But maybe these people don't understand that Brando is not actually mind-reading, nor is he pretending to be a ghost, but that he has dealt with too many NPCs such as robbers and bandits, and he has already reacted to some of their basics. Just know it like the back of your hand. Brando has long known which NPCs have moral integrity and which NPCs have no moral integrity.

It's just that the lizard man Ke Jin obviously has no room to care about other people at this time. He has been frightened by Brando. He is almost convinced that this human being is a wizard, a terrible wizard who can see through people's hearts. Of course, it was still a little suspicious, but immediately saw Brando stand up and take out a sleeve gem from his arms, tilt it slightly at it, and ask: "You can try to answer my question -"

Ke Jin was dubious, but as soon as it opened its mouth, he found that all his sounds were released. Although his mouth still opened and closed, there was no sound at all.

This time Ke Jin was really frightened. Although wizards in this era are far less mysterious than before in the chaotic era, those people in this remote mountainous area still have terrifying power in their hearts. Ke Jin couldn't help but look at Brando blankly, wondering why the other party wanted to 'steal' his voice.

But Brando grasped the sleeve gem and withdrew the silence technique. He looked at the energy in the gem, and then he put away the gem and said to the lizard man with a serious face: "See, I can take away your ability to speak, or I can give it back to you. Voice is part of the soul, and what I can take away is not only your voice, but also your soul."

The young man's voice cooled down: "The body will rot, but the soul will live forever. Therefore, the punishment and pain of life itself are often temporary, but have you ever tasted the torment of the soul forever in the flames?"

Ke Jin shuddered and quickly shook his head.

Brando smiled gently, squatted down and pressed the other person's forehead and said, "How about you do me a favor?"

The lizard man nodded like a fool.

"You mean they evacuated to the southwest?"

"Yes, boss, my people saw them retreating along the southwest valley on the mountainside. I don't know if they discovered us..."

When Ke Jin opened the door and entered the hall belonging to Heyoukiel, he saw one of his colleagues reporting something to their leader sitting on the high chair in the middle. This scene made it a little nervous, but in the end the survival instinct prevailed, and it took a breath and walked up with a good idea. Silver Moon Demon Wolf Hand Beat

The lizard man who was making a report seemed to have finished what he wanted to say at this time. At Heyoukil's signal, he turned around and passed by Ke Jin, leaving the hall. Our lizardman lieutenant didn't dare to look back, nor did he dare to look into Heyukiel's eyes. He could only lower his head in this situation - but he immediately recognized from the number of boots on the stall that there were other people in this hall. Two extra people.

In fact, it knows these two people. They are both human beings, but they seem to have some friendship with their leader. Ke Jin had seen these two guys yesterday afternoon, but he knew that it was the boss's business and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

It silently recited what Brando told it in its heart, Martha on top, and it swore that it had never even recited the prayer clauses so seriously.

The threatening words of the human wizard are still in my ears, my life is at stake.
