Chapter 443: 442. Brave Heart
Chapter 443 442. Braveheart
The main material for preparing the secondary invisibility potion is a colorless liquid extracted from the glands of a large chameleon living in the wild swamp. The ingredients are several common magical herbs, because the secondary invisibility potion does not involve precious Magic herbs, so they can still be found in the magic market.
For the reconnaissance mission in Meijin Town this time, the War Command provided a total of 30 secondary invisibility potions. At first glance, this batch of secondary invisibility potions seems to be a lot, but they were distributed to the commanders of the three guard battalions. The battalion only had ten lesser invisibility potions.
Viscount Emmett wants to limit the number of scouting teams to five, so that every knight who enters the town to scout can get two bottles of lesser invisibility potions. But with the addition of Samira and Andrew, the knights in the scouting team can only get a bottle of lesser invisibility potion each.
In addition to the secondary invisibility potion, the detective knight who sneaked into the small town of Meijin was also coated with a slightly pungent man-eating pollen.
This kind of piranha is said to be a variant of hell, and it is often seen in the rain forests in some areas in the south of the Roland Continent. Adult piranhas can wrap hunters passing by with flower buds full of sharp teeth. The flower has a very strong paralyzing toxin. Once the hunter is wrapped in the flower, it is difficult to escape by his own strength. Applying this man-eating pollen to the body can fool the hellhound's keen sense of smell.
When the magicians rode the magic scorpion to investigate the town of Meijin these days, they found that the town of Meijin not only gathered a large number of **** dogs, but also kept coming out of the center of the town. These **** dogs are different from ordinary **** dogs. Dogs have some essential differences. Some of them can actually evolve into giant **** dogs. The magicians even suspect that the three **** dogs that appeared in the besieged **** dogs are also related to this. It is very likely that Meijin Xiao There is a demon gate in the town that allows advanced hellhounds to pass through.
This alone is enough to attract the attention of the war command.
Low-level **** dogs are just **** beasts without thinking ability. They rely on their survival instincts to act, but high-level **** dogs can kill the entire **** dog group. In the deep mountains and swamps of the coffee plane, that is the last thing the lords of Bena province want to see.
Whenever a magician passes by in the sky, the hellhounds near the town seem to be facing an enemy. Hundreds of hellhounds run wildly on the ground, chasing the flying magician in the sky until they leave completely In the area around the small town of Meijin, the hellhounds around the small town of Meijin returned the same way.
This made the magician investigation team believe that there must be more problems in the small town of Meijin.
…
The reconnaissance team took advantage of the night to pass through the wild grass, and some **** dogs wandered back and forth more than ten meters away.
Several knights passed by the hellhounds, but they turned a blind eye.
In Suldak's field of vision, he could only vaguely see the translucent silhouettes of Viscount Emmet and Samira in front of him. It was a blurred silhouette formed by twisted air. Suldak followed them. Behind, cross a bridge with only a few wooden piers.
Hellhounds seem to hate river water, and there are only a few hellhounds patrolling near the wooden bridge.
Led by Samira, the reconnaissance team easily passed through the patrol network set up by the Hellhounds outside the town.
Entering the small town of Meijin, Samira, who was walking in front, stopped suddenly. She made a gesture of hiding behind her, and quickly squatted at the corner of a low wall, and the knight following her also quickly squatted down. Just as Andrew, who was at the back, squatted down, a giant dog's head protruded from the wall with a foul smell, and the pair of purple-patterned dog eyes looked around.
This giant hellhound is bigger than the one Suldak killed in the woods. It poked its head out from the wall, and the saliva dripping from the corner of its mouth almost landed on Suldak's body. on the head.
Andrew in the back has even touched the handle of the ax with both hands. Once Suldak is discovered by the giant **** dog, it is estimated that Andrew will swing the big ax without hesitation, and directly kill the giant **** dog first. .
The giant hellhound probably smelled a stench, shook its huge head violently, and sneezed loudly.
Suldak quietly raised the dwarf chain shield to block the saliva splashed by the hellhound, but the giant hellhound didn't notice it, and then turned away shaking its fat buttocks.
Andrew put the big ax back on his back resentfully.
…
The knights of the reconnaissance team broke out in a cold sweat from fright at this moment.
Turn into a narrow alley, walk forward tens of meters, and enter a long street in the small town of Meijin.
With superhuman vigilance, Samira successfully led everyone to avoid the three patrolling **** dogs. Seeing the three **** dogs leave slowly, Samira breathed a sigh of relief.
Surdak stood in the line, looking around the lifeless town.
The town was covered with dried blood, and occasionally torn cloth and leather, broken wooden doors and collapsed courtyard walls could be seen in the streets and alleys, but there were no bones to be seen, not even bones on the ground. Occasionally, some gray-white feces were seen in the corner. It seemed that those people in the town who hadn't escaped in time were probably swallowed by hellhounds without leaving any bones left.
From time to time outside the small town, **** dogs could be heard roaring, and the battle between the guard battalion and the **** dogs had already begun.
The town seemed much quieter, and occasionally there were faint cries of strange owlbeasts.
The entire town was filled with dead silence, and there were not many hellhounds patrolling the town.
At this time, the three patrolling hellhounds on the street seemed to smell something. They let out an angry growl, and quickly slid into an alley.
There are three reconnaissance teams that infiltrated Meijin Town together with the Hailansa Guard Battalion. However, the three reconnaissance teams did not act together. The three reconnaissance teams chose to infiltrate the town from three different directions in order to have greater gains.
Viscount Emmet suspected that the hellhounds must have discovered the traces of the other two scouting teams, and the reaction was so intense.
He signaled the investigation team to follow secretly. The alley was very narrow. The three hellhounds surrounded the end of the alley, constantly grabbing a wooden door with their sharp claws. The sawdust on the door flew, and the wooden door quickly overwhelmed and fell into the room with a bang.
Three hellhounds rushed in like crazy.
Viscount Emmet looked back at the knights. Those hellhounds didn't seem to have encountered the scouting team from other guard battalions. At this time, Samira had already chased after them first, and Viscount Emmet shot at the knights behind. He waved his hand and signaled everyone to follow.
The investigation team followed the hellhounds, got into the dark room at the end of the alley, stepped on the fallen wooden door, and saw a dirty human child climbing on the chandelier hanging from the roof. He looked at the **** dogs in the room with a look of horror, his body trembling on the swaying iron ceiling, and those **** dogs kept jumping high towards the chandelier, every time it was only one step away. Just bite the kid.
It turned out to be a survivor in the small town of Meijin!
He was carrying a big package behind his back, which looked a little funny.
A hellhound has already climbed up the stairs. As long as you climb to the top of the stairs, you can easily jump onto the dangling chandelier.
Battle will quickly invalidate the invisibility effect on everyone.
Viscount Emmet hesitated for a moment, but decided to save the child.
He still had three bottles of lesser invisibility potion in his hand, so he waved to Suldak behind him.
Suldak was about to rush up to save the child, but was stopped by Andrew who rushed up from behind. He signaled everyone not to act rashly, and then the native warrior walked straight into the room with a big ax in his hand. He raised the ax in his hand Slashing towards the **** dog, the **** dog seemed to sense it, but when it wanted to avoid it, the ax blade had already touched its neck.
A puff of purple blood splashed onto the stone wall, and the head of the hellhound was chopped off by Andrew, and it rolled to the corner of the wall by the inertia of the falling.
In the dark room, Andrew gradually revealed his tall figure. He didn't stop there, but swung the big ax in his hand sideways while the **** dog on the side was biting back. Before he could let out a scream, his sternum was shattered by Andrew's smash, and his body fell heavily on the wall of the room, making a dull sound.
At this time, the hellhound climbing up the stairs didn't understand the situation. Seeing the battle broke out in the room, it jumped at Andrew without fear.
A phantom of blood-colored wolf eyes appeared behind Andrew, and his momentum burst out, and the big ax he slashed brought a white streak, and the hellhound's body in the air turned around, revealing The huge mouth of the fangs bit at Andrew's wrist, but Andrew took a lunge, turned sideways, raised the handle of the ax with his backhand, and hit his head. The wail of the **** dog came from the room, and the dog fell heavily to the ground.
Andrew didn't give the hellhound any chance to escape, and immediately chopped off its head with an axe.
The 'soul of the berserker' in his body slowly awakened, which significantly improved the strength of the native warrior Andrew.
Killing three hellhounds in one go, Andrew raised his head and looked at the boy hiding on the top of the chandelier. The boy had already shown a look of admiration. He turned over and jumped off the chandelier like a monkey, and said to Andrew: Sentence vernacular.
Andrew casually said something in the local dialect, and the boy immediately showed joy.
After confirming that Andrew is a Nanai warrior, the boy showed more affection to Andrew, and asked Andrew with joy, "Did you come to Meijin Town to rescue us?"
He glanced behind Andrew, and found that there was no companion behind Andrew, and his eyes were full of worry.
"We didn't know there were survivors here!" Andrew said, "We are the investigation team that came here to investigate intelligence."
Then he patted the boy on the shoulder and asked him, "How many people are still alive here?"
The boy's brows were almost twisted into hemp ropes. He said with a mournful face, "There are not many left. Everyone has been eaten by those vicious dogs. There are not many who survived. Everyone hides in the basement and dare not come out. I am relatively young." , can climb out from the vent, and find some food for everyone at night, can you save us out?"
Andrew turned his head to look at the empty room. After he revealed his figure, he couldn't see his invisible companion, but he knew that everyone was in this room.
Regarding the boy's question, Andrew was a little embarrassed, but thinking of the people of the Nanai tribe being trapped here, the brave Nanai warrior made up his mind. This might be his duty as a warrior, but he didn't want to hurt others, so He said to the boys:
"If you want to leave here immediately, I can try to take you out, but I can't defeat so many **** dogs alone, so the chance of success is not too great, there is a high possibility that we will all be killed by **** dogs together Eat it, I think you probably can't make a decision for other people on this matter, so you can go back and discuss it with them."
Although he is a big man, but his mind is more delicate, he said to the boy: "Maybe I can help you get some food, you can hide in the basement for a while, and come out after the army of Wojmara City captures here." , anyway, you are still safe for the time being."
The boy heard that he might die if he left the small town of Meijin now, and he heard that the second choice given by Andrew was safer, so he said excitedly: "You mean to get us some food and let us hide here, Continue to wait for the reinforcements to capture the small town of Meizu?"
Andrew squatted in front of the boy and nodded, asking:
"That's right, the reinforcements from Bena Province are gathering in Vojmara City, and a large-scale counterattack is about to start. Our investigation team sneaked in here to investigate whether there is a gate of evil spirits here. By the way, you come out at night these days Looking for food, have you ever seen some kind of wall of flesh and blood in some places, that is, the wall where hellhounds are constantly crawling out of certain flesh and blood, or that mysterious huge demon head appearing in a certain magic circle, Sometimes these hellhounds crawl out of those demons' mouths."
The boy thought about it for a long time, and said with some uncertainty: "I don't understand what you said, but there should be no such thing as the Wall of Flesh or the Devil's Gate you mentioned here, and the **** dogs here are all from outside. Yes. They're here because some hellhound **** are about to have puppies."
Andrew continued to ask: "You said these **** dogs are breeding in the town?"
The boy shook his head and answered honestly: "I don't know what happened. They gathered at Baron Cameron's house. There are so many hellhounds in that area. I went out to look for food at night, so I didn't dare to go there."
"Can you tell me the general direction?" Andrew asked again.
"I can take you there, I didn't dare to get too close the first few times, I could only see it from a distance." The boy said bravely.
Then he said to Andrew with some coyness: "Before that, I hope you can help me get something to eat. Everyone has been hiding in the basement and starving for several days. I haven't found much food these days. Those vicious dogs My ears are too sensitive, and I can always be found. There are many places where I know there are food stores, but I dare not go there."
When he said this, he was a little ashamed, but he said to Andrew seriously: "I can't die now, only I am short and courageous, and I can get out of the ventilation duct to get food for everyone. I must get it for everyone." When it comes to food, my sister and everyone won't starve to death in the basement."
"How do you usually get rid of the hellhound?" Andrew asked him.
The boy pointed to a dark air vent on the ceiling, and said a little proudly: "There are many places where they can't get in at all..."
On the occasion of the coming of the new year, Xiaozhu wishes everyone a happy new year. I wish you all good health, happy family, abundant wealth and good luck in the new year!
