The second sentry post was empty, with slight signs of fighting nearby, and no soldiers who came to change defense could be found either.
Surdak pondered for a moment, and this time he did not let the second team of soldiers stay at this post. Since there were no people in the two hidden posts closest to the camp, the other posts were not much better. The military headquarters is on the west side of the camp.
There are a total of thirteen sentry posts. If one soldier is left at each sentry post and walks to the last sentry post, I am afraid that he will be the only one left in the second team.
It was obvious that this group of evil spirits knew the layout of the sentry posts in this area. They knew the hiding place of each sentry post, and they also silently eliminated all the soldiers in these sentry posts.
Although detecting these hidden sentries is nothing, the fact that they can eliminate them all silently is enough to show that they have certain methods.
Now that the second team can't trace the whereabouts of these evil spirits, it means that they are hiding in the dark. They are probably waiting for the soldiers of the second team to separate and station at these sentry posts, and then find opportunities to kill them one by one.
Originally, He Boqiang wanted to secretly remind Suldak, but now it seems that Suldak must have realized this himself.
Surdak took out the last two monster head sacrifices that were as hard as salted fish from the package.
These two monster heads are what the second team relies on to defeat the evil spirits.
Suldak asked other team soldiers to guard the surroundings. Then He Boqiang took out four pottery bowls, set up a magic circle in the forest clearing below the second sentry post, and held a simple sacrificial ceremony for
The two of them were blessed with the 'Blessed Body' and the 'Blessed Shield'.
Although He Boqiang is extremely familiar with this set of sacrifice rituals, he still feels a little nervous every time he sacrifices, as if something is watching him from somewhere...
After completing the sacrificial ceremony, Surdak gathered the soldiers of the second team together again and began to lay out the battle plan for this time.
"We can't go any further. If we go any further, our people will be scattered to various outposts one by one. That will make us fall into the trap of the evil spirits and give them the opportunity to defeat them one by one."
Surdak sat under the tree and said firmly to the soldiers of the second team:
"You guys go back, little Dak and I stay here to see what's going on here..."
The members of the second team did not expect that Captain Surdak would actually think of using themselves as bait to fish out the evil spirits hiding in the dark. They were a little dumbfounded for a moment. Not only did they look at each other, but no one wanted to speak.
Surdak saw everyone suddenly fell silent and said:
"By the way, this time when you reach the first guard post, don't forget to call that boy Billy. I always feel a little uneasy if he is left there alone."
The bearded Cagel frowned and said with some hesitation: "Captain, it's not good for us to leave you and little Dak here..."
Augustus also rushed to the team and said: "If we want to keep everyone together, I don't believe we can't squat them."
The other soldiers also wanted to say some words of dissuasion, but Surdak waved his hand and said:
"You just go, don't be afraid. If there are too many of them, I will send out demons and send out flares to attract people from the military camp. This place is actually not that far from the military camp. There will definitely be support from the military camp. If they come,
"Young Master, then I'll call you, and as long as we hold on until you come back, we can get rid of them."
Looking at the soldiers of the second team who were still a little worried, Suldak said again:
"Don't worry, little Dak and I can still handle one or two evil spirits. Look, this time I also followed Little Dak's example and changed to a dwarf chain shield."
When the second team of soldiers walked, they deliberately amplified the sounds of their footsteps and voices, and gradually disappeared on the hillside of the dense forest.
Suldak climbed up the tree and re-checked whether there were any traces of fighting on the tree, while He Boqiang searched for clues under the tree. Finally, on a forest floor, he peeled away the dead leaves and saw some messy things on the soft ground.
The devil's footprints.
Although they have been here, they have taken care of the traces on the battlefield so that no one can detect their traces immediately.
This evil ghost is smarter than other evil ghosts, and actually knows how to hide its whereabouts.
Suldak jumped down from the tree, holding a magic flare in his hand. He frowned and said to He Boqiang: "I didn't even have a chance to release the flare..."
He Boqiang pointed to the footprints in the forest. Suldak's eyes lit up. Seeing that He Boqiang had found the clues left by the evil spirits in the forest, Suldak said: "If we follow these footprints, maybe
The evil spirits are also looking for us who are alone..."
Seeing Suldak's eagerness to try, He Boqiang didn't know how to persuade him to stop.
At this time, He Boqiang's keen sense suddenly smelled a dangerous smell, and he quickly pulled Suldak to the back door of a big tree.
Suldak wanted to ask, but He Boqiang blocked his mouth.
At this time, an evil ghost with long horns actually appeared in the forest. Looking at the route it took, He Boqiang also saw some clues. The route it took was completely in the blind spot of the big sentry tree, which meant that every time he walked,
He hid himself behind a tree at every step, and the secret whistle in the tree could not see the sneaking evil ghost.
He Boqiang pulled Suldak behind a tree. After just a few seconds, the eyes of the horned evil spirit fell on the hiding place where the two of them were hiding.
The evil ghost was very vigilant. It checked under the tree that there were no human soldiers on it, and immediately planned to leave.
Just when the horned devil turned around, he suddenly saw the imperial warrior hiding behind the tree. The devil's eyes were filled with red light, and the spur in his hand suddenly grew out, and he rushed towards this side.
What is surprising is that the strong body, which is more than three meters tall, makes no sound when running in the forest.
In the blink of an eye, the evil ghost had rushed in front of Suldak.
Surdak had nothing to hesitate at this time. He stood up from behind the tree with his shield in hand, and stabbed the evil ghost in the chest with the knight's sword in his hand.
The horned devil did not expect Surdak to resist. In his impression, infantry soldiers wearing such inferior armor were basically cannon fodder on the battlefield. The horned devil fended off Surdak with one hand.
With a stabbing sword, he raised his foot and swung his shield towards Suldak and kicked him over.
This kick hit the shield firmly...
There was a dull loud noise.
In the horned devil's impression, even if this kick could not kill the infantry soldier, it could at least kick him away.
But at this time, the most incredible scene happened to the horned ghost. The infantry soldier actually resisted his kick.
The Roman sword in He Boqiang's hand took the opportunity to quietly thrust out from the side and stabbed steadily into the left rib of the horned devil. This time, He Boqiang had some experience and struck the devil without waiting for its muscles to contract.
The Roman sword was drawn.
The horned devil looked at the wound under his ribs with some disbelief as thick black and purple blood flowed out, and stabbed He Boqiang's throat with a military spike in his hand.
The dwarf chain shield in He Boqiang's hand shone with a faint silver light, and the silver magic runes flashed on the shield.
'Shield of Blessing'
The thorn in the evil ghost's hand was pierced on the shield. The extremely tough thorn bent slightly, but it did not pierce the shield in front of him.
Surdak took the opportunity to exert all his strength and swung the dwarf chain shield to hit the evil ghost in the face.
There was a muffled sound, and the silver runes that appeared on the shield touched the evil ghost's face, and the silver runes shone brightly.
The face of the horned devil looked like a melting candle under those silver runes, its flesh and skin melting rapidly...
