As soon as it dawned, the sleeping soldiers of the second team were woken up by Surdak to start a new day's reconnaissance mission.
The evil ghosts on Moyun Ridge probably wanted to preserve their strength. After discovering traces of imperial soldiers at the foot of the mountain, the evil ghosts did not conduct a large-scale search operation. They even shrunk their daily patrol areas to avoid encountering Green.
The Imperial Scout Team.
Apparently the evil spirits are planning to build a permanent defense stronghold in the Gandaur Mountains in Handanar County in order to contain the imperial army in the forest farm area.
The evil ghosts who enter the Warsaw plane through the Evil Ghost Gate have a certain period of weakness. They are affected by the power of the laws of this plane. After entering the plane, most of the body's strength will be suppressed to a certain extent. In addition, the skin of the body will be damaged by Warsaw.
For evil spirits, the plane is completely corroded by the poisonous air, and evil ghosts need a long adaptation period in this plane.
This is probably the main reason why the evil spirits on Moyun Ridge are unwilling to immediately clash with the imperial army.
After consuming two precious sacrifices, Surdak obtained the 'Blessed Body' and 'Blessed Shield' in a simple sacrificial ceremony.
Therefore, Surdak, who had strong power, was ready to take the initiative to cause trouble for the evil spirits in the forest area.
Now he especially wants to lead the second team of soldiers out of the camp to hunt down the lone ghost warriors in the patrol.
Surdak didn't even have the patience to wait until dawn. He woke up all the sleeping soldiers in the tent. After eating a simple breakfast, he left the temporary camp. Wearing a camouflage made of cinnamon branches, he began to search within the jurisdiction.
Ghost Patrol.
Yesterday's battle with the evil spirits brought strong confidence to the soldiers of the second team. The soldiers waded through the dew-covered grass, not caring about the dew that wet their trouser legs. Everyone was full of energy along the way.
No one was talking, and the surroundings were so quiet that only the footsteps and the scraping of grass blades could be heard.
The second team first came to the remains of the mountain beast. Sure enough, the huge room-like chest frame of the mountain beast had been trampled to pieces by the evil spirits. The sentry branches inserted in the skeleton were also damaged.
I didn't find the lone evil ghost here.
…
Two hours later.
In a valley at the foot of Moyunling Mountain.
Two soldiers of the second team were hiding in a stagnant pool. Both soldiers had a pile of water plants on their heads. They were like a group of swamp zombies lurking in the muddy water, calmly watching a group of seven evil ghosts.
A patrol formed by the pool.
There was a slight noise, like a stone falling into a stagnant pool.
A ‘boom’ sound,
The sound wasn't too loud, but the evil ghost walking at the back just happened to hear it.
He paused as if aware.
The evil ghosts in the front row of the patrol also stopped one after another and stared coldly at the last evil ghost. The evil ghost walked carefully to the edge of the waterhole, but did not find anything suspicious. The evil ghost patrol continued to move forward.
Walk.
After walking a few steps, there was another strange noise, and finally the evil ghost stopped again.
The evil spirits walking in front stopped and returned to the billabong with doubts.
Suddenly, a swamp frog jumped up on the other side of the pool and jumped into the bottomless pool, making a soft 'plop' sound.
The evil ghosts ignored the last evil ghost behind them and strode forward.
Although the evil ghost behind looked at the water with some suspicion and paused for a while, he quickly followed the patrol.
Augustus, who was hiding in the stagnant pool, blew away the duckweed floating in front of his face and was about to climb out of the stagnant pool ashore when he was gently pulled by the bearded man next to him.
The grumpy Augustus is an orthodox academic warrior, while the bearded Cagle was a ranger with half-baked survival experience before entering the military service, and participated in a wild hunt organized by a less-famous local adventure group.
Activity.
The bearded Kagel grabbed Augustus and prevented him from climbing up to the billabong immediately. After a moment, the chaotic footsteps sounded again, and the evil ghost patrol actually trotted back from the front.
, patrolled around the billabong, and then left without finding anything.
Augustus exhaled softly.
Just now, an evil ghost stood in front of him. As long as the evil ghost took half a step forward, he could almost step on his face.
The bearded Kagel stood up from the stagnant pool, panting heavily and letting the muddy water flow from his body.
He stretched out his hand to pull Augustus up from the stagnant pool and said: "Let's follow..."
…
Among a large leafy tree, Red Stocking Garcia was lying on a horizontal branch. He held a tied white stork in his arms and quietly watched the evil patrol patrol passing under the tree.
He was so frightened that he didn't dare to take a breath.
When the evil spirits passed under the tree, he even held his breath and felt his chest beating like a drum.
If possible, Red Socks even wanted to hold his heart tightly to prevent it from beating so violently, but he couldn't control himself.
After finally waiting for all the evil ghost patrols to pass under the tree, he actually took out an alloy bow as if he was trying to die, pointed it at the last evil ghost in the evil ghost patrol team, and pulled the string of the bow.
A hint of murderous intent caused the evil ghost to stop in alarm, and turned its head to look at the big tree where Garcia was hiding...
Red Sock then shot a mountain pear off the tree. The arrow instantly flew away without a trace. The emerald-green mountain pear fell from a height and fell to the solid ground, with a 'pop' sound and juice splashed.
The evil ghost at the back is always in trouble, which has caused extreme dissatisfaction among the other evil ghosts in the team.
Just at this time, a pear fell from the tree and broke into pieces. The evil spirits in front of it even glanced at it with mocking eyes.
The demon team ignored the demons lagging behind and continued to move forward.
The evil ghost was hesitating whether to go back and check, but found that the tree continued to shake violently twice abnormally. He wanted to call out to his companions in the patrol, but he hesitated and held back.
Walk back step by step.
At this time, a call came from the distance from the evil ghost patrol, and the evil ghost at the back immediately responded.
It pointed to the big tree in question...
A white stork fluttered out of the bushes, plunged into the blue sky, and disappeared without a trace.
The ghosts of the Ghost Patrol finally lost their last bit of patience and strode out.
The evil ghost at the back hurriedly tried to follow, but found that the tree was still shaking.
...So, it stopped in confusion, staring at the treetops with a pair of blood-red eyes.
Red socks were lying on the horizontal branches of the big tree.
At this moment, under the evil ghost's eyes full of death, his bladder was filled with a strong sense of urine.
…
Suldak and He Boqiang took the remaining soldiers of the second team and hid in a mountain col.
There is a bush here, which happens to be the best hiding place, but you need to lie completely on the ground. The damp soil has a faint rotten smell.
Mixed with the slightly sour fragrance of the blueberry tree, Suldak even thought of the forest in the mountains behind Wall Village, and the beautiful girl who liked to pick blueberries. Her sweet lips were as blue and clear as the lake.
Eye……
"Little Duck, I'm always a little worried. Do you think they can complete the mission?"
Suldak shook his head, got rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind and asked He Boqiang beside him.
He Boqiang nodded without hesitation.
Seeing He Boqiang's affirmation, Suldak's inexplicable irritability suddenly calmed down. He turned around and asked He Boqiang: "Do you trust them so much?"
He Boqiang still wanted to answer, but he saw a figure swinging over quickly holding a vine, and behind that figure was clearly followed by an angry evil ghost...
He Boqiang pointed to the woodland in front of him. Suldak was in high spirits and shouted in a low voice with a full voice:
"Hey, we really attracted you... Everyone, pay attention, prepare to fight!"
