The gurgling river looked sparkling in the light of the bonfire.
Countless cattle gathered here, and a few young herder girls squatted by the river to fetch water, laughing and cursing from time to time.
Aphrodite sat next to Surdak and seemed to enjoy such a wonderful night.
Gulitem's snoring could be heard from the grass not far away...
…
In the early morning, herdsmen began to leave on their own with their cattle, and they continued to chase the lush aquatic plants northward.
From the news exchanged last night, these herdsmen determined that the evil ghost army would not easily cross the Gandhar Mountains and enter the large meadow, so the cattle could continue to browse the grass there.
The herdsmen looked at the lonely marching tent on the other side of the river, only to find that Surdak had already gone away on horseback.
A red sun slowly rises from the horizon.
Under the morning breeze, on the rolling grass, the two-headed ogre trotted away carrying a big stick.
The herdsmen all breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the ogre was not as scary as the rumors said. They thought he was going to harm a few cows, but they never thought that he would just leave without saying a word.
This was the first time that Suldak had some new understanding of the big meadow.
In the past, he had a very bad impression of this large meadow. He felt that it was like an endless green sea, and it was also the kind of sea full of deathly silence.
But now it was much more vivid here. His eyes began to chase the clouds in the distance. Perhaps the few clouds on the horizon were the sheep that could not be seen at a glance. He suddenly had a new definition of wealth.
There is no doubt that Warsaw is a rich plane.
It is said that there are rich resources hidden in the Shiwan Mountains north of the Gandaer Mountains. The Busman family was not able to take a step towards expansion during its peak period. That was because the minerals in the Kempato River Basin were more abundant, and Handana
In the eyes of the Bussman family, Ireland County is a simple pasture, and it is surrounded by mountains and borders Epsom County to the south. Most of the fresh meat and dairy products in Epsom Province are supplied here.
Going further north, Surdak also saw a small adventure group. There were only seven people in their group, but they brought thirteen Gubo horses. The remaining six horses carried luggage of various sizes, that is,
I don’t know whether those goods contain mostly Warcraft materials, gold and silver property, or both...
The leader of the adventure group was riding a horse and waving to Suldak from a distance.
Suldak had no intention of communicating with them, but just took a casual look and continued towards the forest camp.
It wasn't until he saw the majestic Gandaur Mountain in the distance that Surdak realized that this large meadow was coming to an end, but he couldn't figure out the specific direction of the forest camp. So Surdak took Guli with him.
Temu found a higher slope and looked into the distance.
But there was green grass all over the sky, but not a single caravan could be seen.
"Maybe our route is a little off. It would be great if we could meet a caravan at this time..." Surdak sighed and said to the two-headed ogre.
As the commander of the Western Route Army, he actually couldn't find the location of the forestry camp in the big meadow. If this spread, it would probably make the nobles of Bena Province laugh for a year.
Looking at the parchment map in his hand, Surdak decided to walk further north.
In fact, it was precisely because he didn't see a caravan along the way that Suldak realized something was wrong. After all, there was a free market opposite the forest camp, and many infantry soldiers in the West Route Army had black magic skins in their hands.
, even if they don’t have the Black Demon Skin, they are not short of money. After nearly two months of long journey, when they see the free market opposite the camp, there will definitely be a wave of revenge consumption.
This means that there must be caravans traveling between the forest camp and Handanar City.
But along the way to Surdak, not even the tail of the caravan was seen, not even half of the ruts.
The two-headed ogre stood next to Surdak. He didn't care where the forest camp was. He would always find it if he kept walking along the foot of the mountain. It was just a matter of walking a little longer.
He stood on a mound with a broad view, and almost everywhere he looked were depressions with puddles, or an occasional lone tree growing on a meadow.
This does not mean that Gulitem wants to find water in the puddles or enjoy the shade under the lone tree. His eyes are looking for prey nearby.
Unfortunately, the further north you go, the fewer animals you see along the way.
Two days ago, we could still see some small groups of antelopes hiding in the grass, but now it seems that not even a rabbit can be found.
Gulitem touched the scones in his satchel and licked his lips. He wanted to tell Suldak that he should have a barbecue tonight.
This is a large grassland close to Mount Gandaur. In the distance, there is a hint of dark color on the top of the mountain.
The grass under my feet is almost as high as my chest, but not even a wild rabbit can be seen here.
Just when Surdak was looking at the puddle two miles away, the ogre's eyes also fell on that place.
The two of them looked at each other in perfect understanding, and their eyes revealed the excitement of a hunter who has discovered his prey.
Surdak was not riding a horse, and Gulitem also leaned down. The two of them lay in the chest-high grass and moved towards the puddle.
"Did you see it?" Good brother Naohuaer asked Suldak in front of him with some suspicion.
Suldak said frankly: "No, I just feel like there is something hidden in the grass in the puddle."
While Naohua'er was brewing a magic spell, she whispered: "Then go and have a look..."
…
An evil ghost with a green face and fangs lurked in the grass. The bone armor on his body was dark in color. Half of his body was hidden in the wet mud. He was surrounded by tall reeds.
He had been hiding near this puddle for nearly a day and a night, just trying to catch a few prey that came over to drink water.
The prey on the grass is getting harder and harder to catch now, and he actually wants to walk further into it.
But once you walk into this vast grassland, you will become the most eye-catching target.
He didn't know how many human adventure groups were hidden in the big meadow to the south, but he knew that many hunters walked in and never came out.
Of course, there are evil spirits walking out with prey on their backs, but deep in the grass, there are no trees, so bacon cannot be made. Once the prey dies for a few days and cannot be processed in time, the meat will become smelly. In fact, evil spirits also
Don't like to eat spoiled food.
He hoped that the higher-ups of the legion would agree to send a ghost hunting group into this large grassland, so that they could defeat the adventure groups with a numerical advantage and transport the prey out of this meadow in time. However, once the hunting group's goal was too big,
They will be chased and killed by the heavy cavalry stationed in the forest camp.
In this large meadow, as long as the empire's heavy cavalry line up in a charging formation, they will become unstoppable...
He lay his body in the wet mud, with some rotten stinking mud even on his face, so as to cover up the smell of his body, otherwise the prey would not dare to approach the puddle.
Several black beetles crawled between his arms and got into the gaps in the skeleton. He quickly moved and crushed the small beetles into pulp.
His patience was getting less and less. After waiting for more than a day, he didn't even see a shadow, and he didn't know what he would get from hunting his companions nearby.
Suddenly, the grass on the other side of the puddle showed signs of stirring, which was definitely not caused by the wind.
A head appeared on the opposite side of the puddle, followed immediately by another head. The two heads were almost touching each other. The two heads were very large, with black totem patterns even painted on their faces. They were only ten meters away from the green-faced evil ghost.
meters away.
At this distance, a three-meter-tall green-faced evil ghost only needs to take two steps...
I saw a strong body poking out from the grass, its copper bell-like eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, and its upper body was actually wearing heavy black armor.
The green-faced evil ghost who was about to run out suddenly suffocated. At this moment, he hesitated because the target opposite him was actually stronger than him.
Just his arm moved the reeds on the side, and the prey on the other side of the puddle had obviously noticed him. When his eyes fell on him, the green-faced evil ghost's whole body tensed, and the fist sword in his hand came out of the muddy water.
The tip of the sword passed through the grass and immediately cut through a clump of grass.
And like a cheetah, he jumped out of the grass and jumped over the puddle with force.
…
Even if Gulitmu is crouched, it will be difficult for him to completely hide in the grass.
He is too tall, and his belly is more like a round rock.
He and Surdak touched the side of the puddle together. The moment they pushed aside the grass, he saw the grass on the opposite side of the puddle shaking violently. A green-faced and fanged evil ghost was hiding in the reeds.
The long horns on both sides of his forehead were almost half a foot long, and that terrifying face shot out a devouring gaze.
Then, before Gulitem could react, he saw a dazzling light reflected from the fist sword that the green-faced evil ghost had pulled out from the muddy water.
Good brother Nao Hua'er cast the 'Petrified Skin' buffing magic on himself almost in the next second. He could recite the magic spell more fluently than he could speak Imperial language.
Then there is the ‘Ice Armor Technique’…
Gulitem felt the "halo of enthusiasm" appearing under his feet. A force poured into his body along his legs, and at the same time, a strong fighting spirit erupted in his body.
At this time, the evil ghost on the opposite side had already pounced on him.
…
The green-faced evil ghost stepped over the swamp and puddle in front of him and stabbed the ogre with all his strength with the fist sword in his hand.
But he didn't expect that the big man in front of him had no intention of dodging. The ogre actually stood up straight from the grass, with a layer of ice armor hanging all over his body. He waved the big stick with both hands and also aimed at the green-faced evil ghost's head.
Smash it down.
Facing the sword thrust by the evil spirit, the ogre was not even prepared to dodge.
The green-faced evil ghost was so heartbroken that he forced himself not to dodge the big stick smashed down from above his head, and stabbed the ogre's chest with his fist and sword.
At this time, whoever is cowardly is doomed to be beaten passively.
He knew that if he backed down, he would probably be knocked into a puddle by the big guy on the other side.
At the moment when the green-faced devil's fist and sword were completely thrust out, his body rose into the air.
A shield held up by holy light appeared in front of his eyes. Although the shield was wrapped in holy light, the surface of the shield clearly showed the face of an evil general.
The green-faced evil ghost shuddered uncontrollably because of the face that frightened him, and he stabbed the evil ghost's shield with his fist and sword.
The fist sword that should have penetrated the shield only had the tip of the sword penetrate a little.
The construct warrior standing behind the shield steadily withstood his impact. Just below the left side of the shield, a broad sword came out and thrust into the gap between the knee joint of his right leg, and then purple blood gushed out...
…
The evil ghost felt that several of the tendons connected to the kneecap had been severed. He could no longer use his leg at all, and his body fell to the left uncontrollably under the severe pain.
And Gulitem's powerful stick came down from above and instantly landed on the green-faced evil ghost's shoulder and neck.
The exoskeleton on the shoulders and neck can be said to be the thickest part of the Blue Faced Devil's bone armor.
But the moment the huge force came down, the outer bone of his shoulder blade began to crack, a stream of blood spurted out, and the green-faced devil fell hard into the grass next to the puddle.
Surdak took two steps, stepped on the green-faced evil ghost's back with one foot, held the long horn on his left side with one hand, and forcibly lifted the evil ghost's head. The broad sword in his hand burst out with a layer of rich
The holy light cut through the gap between the bones and armor between the neck, and the green-faced evil ghost's head was cut off in one fell swoop, and was held in Surdak's hand.
The neck, whose bones were covered with countless muscles, spurted out a trace of blood several meters away, turning the entire puddle purple-red.
The battle here only took a few breaths from the outbreak to the end.
Before Surdak could throw the green-faced evil spirit's head into the demon-sealing box, he saw several evil spirits emerging from the grass not far from the puddle.
Without thinking, he threw a fireball at the nearest evil ghost. The fireball exploded in the face of the evil ghost warrior, and the big stick in the two-headed ogre's hand also hit it immediately.
The two-headed ogre suffered a lot from evil spirits by the Samosto River, so it used all its strength this time.
The evil ghost was forced back half a step by the fireball. He was holding a short spear in his hand. He saw the two-headed ogre swinging the club and smashing it down. He was holding the black iron short spear in both hands to block the big club.
The shadow of an ogre ancestor suddenly appeared behind Gulitem, and the big stick even made an air-piercing sound.
It was smashed down so hard that the short flying spear was dented directly, and the evil ghost warrior's feet were also sunk deep into the mud.
Surdak dragged the shield in his hand and slammed into the evil ghost warrior.
Just as the evil ghost warrior was dizzy, Surdak cast a strange spell in his throat, and the rune language was followed by the sound of his broad sword...
'Holy Thunder'
A bolt of holy light thunder fell from the top of his head, and countless silver runes appeared from the exoskeleton of the evil ghost warrior, and then he fell into a puddle.
Immediately afterwards, the two evil ghost warriors behind were also chopped down by Surdak and Gulitem...
In fact, after the green-faced demon's little flag leader was killed, this demon team was no match for the two powerful second-level warriors.
The battle is a complete crushing of strength.
The remaining two evil ghost warriors saw their companions being killed one by one, and immediately turned around and ran towards Ganda Er Mountain.
How could Surdak let go of the fat meat that was brought to his mouth? The whistle sounded, and a magic-patterned war horse waded through the dense grass and galloped from behind.
