Several clearly visible water lines appeared on the river, going straight towards the place where the indigenous women were fetching water. When they arrived at the river, the group of indigenous women had already left the river, and these ferocious beasts could only writhe in the shallow water.
There was a huge splash of water, revealing a section of white-scaled belly, and then quietly disappeared into the river.
The distance was a bit far, and it was not clear whether those ferocious beasts were crocodiles or not. In short, they were not benevolent creatures.
‘Fortunately those indigenous women walked fast, otherwise they would have been in danger!’ Such thoughts came to He Boqiang’s mind.
He immediately realized that this idea should not be known to the people around him. Now all the soldiers of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment hated the indigenous people.
He Boqiang shook his head vigorously, trying to throw these thoughts out of his mind.
It is said that there are countless ferocious beasts hidden in the deep mountains and swamps of the Gandaur Mountains. It seems that this statement is true. He Boqiang walked along the mountain ridge with the second team for two days, but in fact he did not escape from the Gandaer Mountains.
edge area.
Red Socks climbed out of the tent at this time. He came to He Boqiang's side and followed He Boqiang's gaze towards the river valley.
It happened that the indigenous women got into the bushes, leaving only a few giant water beasts writhing in the shallow water, trying to return to the deep water.
"Oh my God, what did I see? Those are Tim fish...Suldak...uh, captain, captain! Come here quickly, look at there are a group of Tim fish in the valley below."
"...What? Where?" Hearing Red Socks' cry, Suldak ran faster than a rabbit.
When his figure appeared next to He Boqiang, the Tim fish had already dived into the water, leaving only a few faint water lines.
Red-socked Garcia stretched out his neck excitedly. He was a bit thin and his tall figure made him look like a pole.
He swore to Suldak: "Yes, it must be Tim fish. I know this kind of big fish. When I participated in the battle in the Kemperto River Basin, I saw with my own eyes an adult Tim fish kill a single fish.
The horned bison were dragged into the river and drowned.”
When the other members of the team heard Red Stockings shouting, they all came here, but when they heard that Tim fish had been found in the river valley, they all looked eager to try.
Kagel asked Surdak: "What should we do? Captain."
His face is covered with beards. Compared with his actual age and appearance, there is at least a ten-year age difference. He is even younger than Suldak, but he looks like a middle-aged uncle.
.
Suldak said without thinking: "Let's do some more reconnaissance. If we really encounter Tim fish, our trip this time will not be in vain."
Red-socked Garcia volunteered and raised his hand and said: "I'll go!"
Surdak patted him on the shoulder, "Be careful, don't let those big guys drag you into the river. If you get into the belly of the fish, I can't save you!"
Red Socks looked a little impatient, picked up a Paglio spear, and ran down the hillside.
"I know!"
…
Tim, the transliteration of the ancient Elvish language, translated into the Green Empire language means "water arrow".
In fact, this kind of Tim fish is used to shooting a 'water arrow' from the water to hunt animals on the shore. This kind of Tim fish often hides underwater. Once an animal comes to the river, it will slowly emerge from the water.
Slowly approach, and when you dive to the river, you jump out of the water with your big tail swung, then open your big mouth and spray out a jet of water. Even if you are as strong as a one-horned bison, you will be hit by a water arrow on the spot.
coma.
The Tim fish is considered a specialty of the Kempato River Basin. Unexpectedly, there is such a first-level monster in the river valley of the Gandaur Mountains.
Every monster has a magic core inside its skull.
Tim fish is no exception, but the probability of the magic core produced by a first-level magic beast is slightly lower, and most of these magic cores that are slightly larger than pigeon eggs do not breed magic crystals. Even if there are magic cores in them,
Crystal, then such a large magic crystal can only be regarded as magic crystal fragments.
Now in the magic market of the Green Empire, magic crystal fragments are far less valuable than before.
However, this kind of tim fish is one of the few low-level monsters that the second team can hunt. This is why the soldiers of the second team can no longer take their eyes away after seeing the tim fish. This kind of
But there is a chance to open a low-level monster with a magic core.
This time it happened that the second team was on a separate mission, and it was a search mission with the greatest degree of autonomy. This could be carried out as long as the leader Suldak nodded.
Suldak did not refuse Red Stockings to run to the river valley for reconnaissance, which meant that he did not object to the hunt.
…
After the second team of soldiers discovered a group of Tim fish in the river valley, they did not act rashly, but silently returned to the mountains.
After an afternoon, the second team of soldiers found some footprints of small animals on the hillside, and finally found some fresh feces on the edge of a birch forest.
Augustus, who is the best at detecting in the team, analyzed that these should be Eu pig droppings. This means that there should be a group of Eu pigs nearby.
Augustus was good at setting up animal traps. He used a few finger-thick hemp ropes to set up simple rope traps. He also sprinkled marching rations next to several traps, and then everyone returned to the tent to wait.
, after dinner, the soldiers came back to the birch forest and found that the rope trap set by Augustus actually trapped two special pigs, which were not much bigger than native dogs.
It was not that the other rope traps were not set, but that the ropes were bitten off by Youzhu with his teeth. Those Youzhus who bit the ropes escaped with the nooses on their legs. The remaining two Youzhus seemed to be alive.
They were so smart that they didn't try to bite off the hemp rope and just lay on the ground.
The two Youzhus became panicked when they saw the soldiers appearing. They tried to struggle and escape before they had time. Augustus rushed up and beat them to death on the spot with a wooden stick. Then the soldiers happily carried the two Youzhus.
The pig returns to the tent.
…
The next morning, He Boqiang did not eat the pigs. The two pigs were carried directly to the river by the soldiers. Augustus made several cuts on one pig, and then cut off the two pigs at both ends.
Sharpened wooden sticks were inserted into Youzhu's body and tied into a cross. After tying the thickest hemp rope, he tied one end of the hemp rope to a big tree on the bank of the river valley, and then tied it to the cross.
The pig was thrown into the river.
This was the first time He Boqiang saw such a rough hunting method.
Everyone did not wait too long at all. When Youzhu, who was tied to the wooden cross, was thrown into the river, the blood that had already condensed in his body was washed by the river and slowly spread into the river along the open wounds.
I saw several water lines in the river and quickly chased Youzhu floating on the river.
The waterline that rushed forward opened its huge mouth desperately, and swallowed the special pig in one gulp the moment it broke out of the water.
This Tim fish made a huge splash on the water. Its blue-black back was almost two meters long above the water. After swallowing the pig, the Tim fish quickly wanted to sink to the bottom of the water. Unexpectedly, it fell under the hemp rope as thick as its arm.
It was stretched straight in an instant, and the big tree on the shore was pulled by the Tim fish and made a "squeaking" sound.
Thirteen people, including He Boqiang, worked together to pull the hemp rope and dragged the Tim fish, which weighed hundreds of kilograms, to the shore. The Tim fish had a special pig stuffed in its mouth and could not release the water arrow at all. It was dragged
Although he still struggled hard when he reached the shore, he was directly stabbed to death by two soldiers with spears on the shore...
