Act 23 Expansion(4)
Antitina listened to the faint sound of flapping wings of birds in the distant forest, and for a moment she couldn't help but feel a little creepy.
Juta stood beside her, and the two ladies, one big and one small, stood on the wooden wall in silence for a while, facing the cold moonlight.
Who knows what dangers lurk in the darkness? She could imagine the cavemen leaping forward in the forest - they were striding forward, their heavy steps stepping on the dry pine branches, making a crackling sound, and soon they emerged from the dark forest. They came up and surrounded the lumberyard.
The cavemen appeared from the direction of Mount Grahar from the very beginning, and there were about thirty of them, no different from the group in the afternoon. The scouts sent by the mercenaries were obviously no match for them. Fortunately, the female mercenary leader had already considered this. She sent cavalry, so she could at least withdraw from the forest.
The cavemen bite this small group of cavalry tightly from behind. They know that these humans will retreat to the lumber camp. If the humans in the lumber camp open the door to meet these similar people, they will have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and rush in.
But Juta would not make such a stupid mistake. She immediately asked the mercenary crossbowmen on the wooden fortress outside the lumberyard to stop the cavemen with arrows, and at the same time asked her own people to open the door and let in the cavalry from outside.
The crossbowmen released the bowstrings on the crossbow machines, and a row of white lines shot out from the wooden fortress outside the lumberyard.
The uniform crossbow arrows were like an invisible whip hitting the caveman formation, beating them to pieces. But the actual power is questionable. Antitina saw with her own eyes that the cavemen who had been shot and fell to the ground got up again, and only five or six of them actually fell.
She couldn't help but take a breath of air. Although she had fought against these creatures from the underground of Qiaogendigang in the afternoon, at that time she was with Roman in the back, and she could not see them as clearly as she does now.
But in any case, after realizing that there was no opportunity to take advantage, the caveman quickly retreated after leaving five or six corpses.
"This is a scout." The female mercenary leader confirmed this by staring in the direction of the forest where the caveman retreated.
"Then these are the first group of cavemen who have appeared since the afternoon," Antitina whispered: "If they haven't gathered, these may be cavemen from the nearest sawmill. They don't seem to have gathered. ah."
"How do you know?" Yuta turned around. This little girl was still asking her just now, but she came to her own conclusion so quickly.
"The guide brought from Fir City said that from Horseshoe Sawmill to here,
Even riding through the forest takes close to half a day. She said matter-of-factly: "It can be seen that those cavemen were not as fast as horses." "
"The vanguard." Yuta replied.
"They probably know that we don't have many people." Antitina replied: "There were so many people running away in the afternoon. It's impossible to hide our strength."
However, the two obviously did not struggle with this matter. They knew without thinking that they had no chance to keep each other in the afternoon; in fact, if it weren't for Brando's tactics, it would be a bit incredible for them to even win.
But the two soon stopped talking.
Because after they discovered that the caveman scouts had retreated, their vanguard quickly walked out of the forest from the other side - about a hundred cavemen walked out of the forest and moved along the river beach - keeping parallel to the wooden wall outside the logging camp.
"What are they doing?"
A face came between the two of them. The businesswoman's wide eyes were like a pair of bright black gems. She blinked and leaned on the female wall to stare curiously at the caveman's long lips outside. Team.
"Surround this place," Antitina frowned: "It seems they plan to wait here for the cavemen from other logging camps to come and join them."
"Are you being ignored by the other party? Huh!" Jutta looked at the caveman's long snake formation on the river beach, and was a little ready to make a move: "Should we let the tiger sparrow lead the cavalry to charge?"
She thought that if she opened the door and fought back at this time, she would get a big advantage.
But the noble daughter watched the cavemen slowly move forward along the river beach, turning the lumber camp into an isolated island little by little, and said in her heart that it was impossible not to be nervous. But she calmed down and shook her head: "No need."
"kindness?"
"If they are going to launch a siege, it will at least indicate whether they will attack for a while. Isn't this consistent with our expectations?"
"Weaken the opponent's strength a little, and it will be easier to defend in a while," Yutado glanced at Antitina. The opponent's calmness and coolness left a strange impression on her - but this female mercenary leader Then he shook his head: "But it's true. We may have to face a thousand or even more of these guys in a while. There is no such thing as a hundred more or less than a hundred, and we are not sure about even this small number of people." Annihilate all the opponents..."
She said this to herself as if to convince herself.
Antitina did not answer, but she thought in her heart: One thousand? She shook her head secretly, and Brando told her that there were more than three thousand or more cavemen operating in this area.
However, the larger the number, the slower they would gather. She estimated that when these guys launched their attack in the middle of the night, the number of cavemen outside the lumber camp was likely to exceed half of this number. The only thing left is to hope that the other party is not good at attacking the ground world as Brando said.
She seemed a little nervous, but on the other hand Brando never said anything big.
The silver moon is rising gradually over the mountains and fields.
When the moonlight filled the valley, Brando finally found his target. He squinted his eyes and saw the skinny caveman witch doctor surrounded by several tall bugbears among the cavemen. Although they disappeared in the sea of people in an instant, he had already noted the approximate location of the other party.
It was already after midnight.
He immediately reset the 'Rochard's Bazaar' card, then tapped it again, and 6 points of wealth were immediately transferred into the treasure. After doing all this, he lowered his head and looked at the cavemen gathered in the silver valley below again - there were an astonishing number of them, divided into three groups - he guessed that there were at least half of the cavemen in this area. All of the above are stationed underground in this lumberyard.
Looking at the densely packed spears, Brando couldn't help but frown.
The bad news is that he and Akane have to find targets in this army. Even if they both have the strength of the first level of gold, it is still a bit difficult to move freely among hundreds of black iron level creatures. A fantasy.
The good news is that this is at least easier than walking around in the winding underground tunnels dug by cavemen. Brando once had a passionate and impulsive era. He and his companions in the game were as careless as Akane. The difference is that now he was there to stop the red-haired girl, but no one was there to stop them at that time——
Of course, the result was that I got lost inside for almost a week.
He stood up and waved to Akane, who was sitting there bored.
"follow me."
"Are you taking action?" The red-haired girl was stunned.
Brando nodded.
The two of them slid down the hillside silently, and the densely grown fir trees obscured their figures - but this seemed a bit unnecessary - cavemen did not rely on vision in the first place, and their keen hearing allowed them to survive hundreds of The gentle sound of human footsteps was caught just meters away.
But that's just for ordinary people.
When Brando and Akane walked out of the forest one after another, the first people to notice them were a few bugbears on the edge. The big guys carrying flails were obviously surprised when they saw the man and the woman. They had rarely experienced such a situation. At first, they took a while to reflect on how to deal with this situation in their limited brain capacity. , but immediately let out a low roar.
The roar immediately spread throughout the valley.
'choke--'
Brando cut the bolas rolling towards him in half with a sword. He tilted his head slightly to let the weapons fly past him on both sides.
Then he raised his head again: probably realizing that his attack was ineffective and guessing the opponent's strength, the cavemen and bugbears began to commotion in his field of vision. The news spreads like a plague among these weird creatures, but the transmission of the news takes time, and the response takes even more time.
But Brando had already calculated the distance between him and the caveman witch doctor. He flicked the middle finger of his left hand on the blade of the sword, flattened the sword, and pulled out a long strip from left to right. Silver thread.
The wind pressure came out, and it first passed over the bugbears - like the wheat stubble left after a scythe was swung - these big men with strong backs and waists fell down like vulnerable scarecrows, all of them fell down. They were cut off at the waist, and blood spurted out.
It even swept down a large group of cavemen from behind.
This blow frightened these underground creatures. Although the division of strength between Qiao Gendigang and the surface world was different, the power of the first level of gold was enough to have a shocking effect no matter where it was. The cavemen immediately let out a horrified scream - which sounded like meaningless noise and screams to Brando - and then they retreated one after another, moving away from Brando like a receding tide.
This is even more exaggerated than in the game.
Although there is talk of morale in the game, it is obviously not that outrageous. Brando didn't expect that his blow would have such an effect. Even he was surprised, but this was a good thing. He immediately inserted it in the direction of the caveman's retreat.
Akane followed closely behind.
At this time, Tajib, the witch doctor in the army, finally discovered these two sources from his own commotion. He shook his caveman's uniquely huge head. At first, his head was still full of anger towards his subordinates. and dissatisfaction.
Just two humans can make the team it finally assembled become a mess.
But it immediately realized that the two humans were coming in its direction! And it’s extremely fast! It knew this from the feedback of its own sound waves, but in just a few breaths, the distance between the other party and it was shortened by dozens of meters.
This is not a good sign.
Tajib panicked.
