Chapter 18 Encountering the Evil Beast Dog

The army quickly packed up the camp, and the large tent was quickly dismantled and mounted on the wagon. Now that the rear has ordered a retreat, it is impossible for them to stay here, and there will be no supply replenishment if they stay here.

When the time comes to fight alone, even a layman like Chi Nan knows what the result will be.

"This is our destination, Blackstone Fortress. As long as we reach Blackstone Fortress, we will be safe." At this moment, the bald father was showing Chi Nan a simple map. It was really simple.

There are only a few thin lines on this map that I don’t know what they mean. I’m afraid the person who drew this map doesn’t understand them. It's really hard for this bald dad to be able to understand such a simple graffiti.

At this moment, many soldiers were already on the road. They were all very fast, and no one dared to neglect them.

"Blackstone Fortress, how far is it from us?"

The bald father raised his head: "According to our current marching speed, we will arrive in about two days. If there is any danger on the road, the cavalry team can speed up and get back faster."

Cavalry? Are there any cavalry here? Suddenly Chi Nan understood that the so-called cavalry were those who rode on horses. After all, there are only a few senior officials and the escorts around them. The total number of these people is less than a hundred. They used to follow Kian and Keladi on the battlefield. They would only rush forward when the final battle was over.

No wonder I ignored these people. So the so-called cavalry retreat means that these people abandoned other soldiers and ran away. Damn it, I should have thought long ago that these damn nobles only have eyes for themselves.

Really, so envious. That's right, Chi Nan is filled with envy right now. The privileges of the nobility are too many. While Chi Nan despises them, he also wants to become one of them.

"Quickly, take them all with you. These are all our efforts. We can't just throw them away."

Behind him, Keladi was still loudly instructing the soldiers to transport the ears of the wild orcs away. For these ears, Kelardi gave up a truckload of supplies without hesitation and made room to transport these military achievements.

Kian and Sokka were not surprised at all. Perhaps in their eyes, military merit was more important than anything else.

"Sir, don't waste time. Leave as soon as possible. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

Chi Nan was stunned for a moment: "Then what should you do? I'm afraid you can't keep up with such a fast marching speed."

Chi Nan looked at the bald father. This old man was quite senior. He usually worked in the army as a logistics worker and followed him. And Holm couldn't walk too fast with that leg.

A flash of relief flashed in the bald father's eyes: "Don't worry, sir. Although I am older, I am a veteran after all. This distance will not trouble me. But that guy Holm, I'm afraid it won't be able to."

Holm's face was expressionless, as if he was not the one who was about to be unable to keep up with the team. Chi Nan hesitated. Although one leg was sent to monitor him, Chi Nan still couldn't watch a familiar person die.

Thinking of this, Chi Nan simply said: "I'm not familiar with horseback riding. One leg, no, Holm, you come up and take me on horseback. Dad, follow me and don't fall behind. I believe that with my ability, they won't abandon me casually." of."

Chi Nan also knew that he was acting out of motivation, but he really couldn't convince himself to give up the people he knew well, at least not until the last moment. I really didn't expect that I was still a virgin. Chi Nan despised herself in her heart. But what Chi Nan didn't see was that there was something extra in the eyes of Yiyi Leg and the bald father looking at him.

"Okay, let's do it like this. You go up One Leg, and I'll leave it to you to protect the adults." The bald dad said the nickname One Leg for the first time in front of Holm. After speaking, he laughed loudly and walked forward. go.

Holm took a deep breath and said nothing more: "Leave your safety to me, let's go." Holm nimbly climbed onto the horse's back and pulled Chi Nan up with a wave of his hand. Then without saying anything, he rode away.

Even the things he carries are actually very few. In addition to some necessary dry food, Chi Nan's team also brought some various seeds and put them in a small box. Dad was holding a crutch, and on one leg was the long bow he had used in previous battles.

Because they traveled lightly, they were still very fast. The only thing slowing him down was the bald father, but he didn't have any weight on him, so he ran much faster than the average soldier.

Keladi and others saw the situation on Chinan's side and came over to offer some words of persuasion. Seeing that Chi Nan was disobedient, he ignored him. Now that they don't need to fight head-on, what's the point of having a mage?

Just like that, the team set off on the road in an almost chaotic state. There was almost no formation during the rush. The concept of war in this world is too bad, Chi Nan suddenly had such a thought in his heart.

The chaotic march continued to retreat back. Until noon, the army encountered no obstacles along the way. At this rate, it would take less than two days to return to Blackstone Fortress. Along the way, the originally chaotic team gradually became somewhat organized. This was the result of Sokka's hard work.

However, just when Chi Nan thought there would be no danger, the crisis suddenly struck.

Just at noon, when the team was about to set up camp and rest, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded in the dense forest in the distance. Suddenly, a gray-white shadow emerged. It was a creature that looked like a dog.

Its skin had marble-like patterns, very little hair, and only a circle of hair on its neck, which looked a bit like a lion. The huge fangs would be exposed even if the mouth was closed.

A thick tail swung back and forth, with extraordinary momentum. The sharp claws, like a bunch of small knives, flashed cold light in the sun. You can also see blood on some of them. These things are not good at first glance.

"No, it's an evil beast dog. Everyone, form a formation and stop them. The evil beast dog can't appear alone, don't run around." Kailadi drew out the knight's sword and shouted loudly. Sure enough, one evil beast dog after another appeared behind. Behind them, there were some crazy orcs following behind, and they were also a little stunned when they saw them.

"Roar, roar... It's humans, tear them apart and eat them." After a moment of hesitation, the wild beastman reacted. He roared loudly and swung his whip in the air, and the evil beast dogs immediately ran towards him like crazy.
