In the meeting hall of Purple Stone Capital City, Nashi was sitting in the center with a gloomy face, but his majestic face showed sadness.
A scout was reporting the latest information to him.
When he learned that the bandits did not follow the rules and chose to enter Diling Lake from the north of the Dead Forest, Najiao, who was eager for revenge, was surprised and helpless. Not only did his painstaking encirclement and suppression plan fail, but he also got caught up with his own son.
Life. But there is no need to worry. In the original plan, there was a way to deal with the bandits entering Diling Lake.
And now, what Nashi wants to see most is for them to enter Diling Lake, because anyone who enters Diling Lake from other directions will have a hard time getting out, and one of them will definitely become crazy. In Nashi's view,
If bandits enter Diling Lake, they are seeking death.
"I want to see how these ignorant bandits get out of Diling Lake. After the order is given, all the troops will immediately enter combat mode, block the passage into Diling Lake, and send patrol teams to strengthen patrols. Once the bandits are found to have escaped,
Diling Lake, shoot without mercy." A ruthless look appeared on Na Shi's gloomy face, full of hatred and anger.
The Dead Forest seems to be endless, overgrown with thorns, and has no water source. It is neither safe nor suitable for camping. The most annoying thing is that the sneak attacks of monsters have never stopped.
As the light in the forest began to dim, the death team's march became extremely difficult. Under the huge trees, there were either thorns or vine nets, and attacks from monsters became more frequent.
After a busy day, the spirit monkey's passion has not diminished. He was proudly blowing away a fourth-level tiger-clawed leopard without eyes, then blasted its head with a punch, and took out the beast soul bead. The spirit shadow at the end of the team
He was not idle. The food he had in stock had already been taken away by Mao Qi, so he took the opportunity to collect some delicious meat.
Suddenly, a giant bat silently launched an attack on the death team. Because it was so fast, the monkey was not prepared for it, and finally a defensive loophole appeared.
Originally, the monkey alone could not cope with it. Once night comes, the orcs here will become a nightmare for the death team. The appearance of the giant bat is just the beginning.
The sudden arrival of the giant bat caused a commotion among the team. Fortunately, due to the large number of people and the low level of the giant bat, it was unable to launch a second attack and was chopped into pieces by the crowd.
A fright and a massacre actually made the team more active. One of the team members who was quick in shooting also got a second-level beast soul bead, which made everyone envious.
Seeing that the team was not damaged, but became more motivated, the monkey had an idea and decided not to attack the monsters below the second level. The team, which had been under the protection of the monkey, was about to lose vigilance and became lively because of this.
When I got up, the irritability caused by the monsters began to turn into the excitement of harvest.
Although the morale of the team is high, the sky is getting darker and darker, and the miasma is getting heavier and heavier. Mao Qi is very worried. If he can no longer find a suitable camp and march in the dark forest in the Dead Forest, the losses of the death team will be unbearable.
.
Mao Qi looked up at the sky. The setting sun had already hung on the treetops. If he didn't camp on the spot, he had no choice but to walk at night. After thinking for a moment, Mao Qi decided to camp.
In order to be able to take care of each other, Mao Qi reduced the scope of the camp by half and built it in a circle. The logistics team was responsible for clearing trees and weeds within 50 meters outside the camp, and then burning the dead branches; at the same time, digging traps around the perimeter
, place organs and strengthen markings to avoid accidental injuries; the combat battalion and the assault battalion are responsible for setting up two defensive fences and lighting a bonfire at each hour; the camp sentry post is divided into one team and set up on the trees, taking turns at night
vigil.
With the help of the monkeys, the giant tree was quickly knocked down, and then quickly decomposed into traps or fences; groups of small monsters were frightened and fled desperately. Soon a tree with a diameter of more than 100 meters
A small camp was formed.
As night gradually fell, bonfires were burning everywhere. But at this time, countless green lights were slowly gathering outside the camp.
The aura of monsters gathering around him reminded Mao Qi of the tide of beasts he had experienced before, and he felt uneasy. If these beasts gathered in a certain number, they would most likely risk launching an attack.
Sun Panghai was very confident in the trap set by the specialty team, and specifically asked each team member to make a mark so that they could discuss their merits and distribute the Beast Soul Beads tomorrow.
Ququshi and Quqiaohu were also very satisfied with the setting up of the defensive fence, and all the crossbows collected in Wudu Village were placed on the checkpoints.
Mao Qi was very satisfied with the performance of the members of the Death Team. It was an improvement to be able to operate so efficiently, but whether they could survive the night successfully still depended on luck.
"The order goes down. Keep your armor and soldiers in your hands. Take the time to rest. Tonight is likely to be a sleepless night!" Mao Qi said worriedly, looking at the wailing night sky.
After everyone dispersed, Ququshi asked Maoqi in a low voice the reason, and Maoqi told Ququshi without any secret that he might be attacked by a herd of beasts tonight.
Speaking of the attack by the beasts, Ququshi instantly lost his confidence. Recalling the overwhelming momentum and the oppression of death, he felt his scalp numb.
"Brother, what should I do?" Ququshi asked worriedly.
"Let's talk based on the situation!" Mao Qi took a deep breath and fell into thinking.
Seeing Mao Qi thinking about the problem, Qu Qushi took the time to get busy.
Mao Qi has always had a feeling in his heart that the Dead Forest is not simple; and the monsters around it are not normal. Generally speaking, if a monster tide occurs, unless there is a special medium to trigger it, there will be no monster tide.
.Because monsters and beasts cannot live in harmony with each other. Unless one's intelligence reaches a level above that of a mythical beast, it is possible to control lower-level monsters with the pressure of breath and blood.
As night fell, starry bonfires were lit in the death team's camp, but the entire camp seemed a little deserted. The occasional patrol footsteps could be heard, which added a bit of mystery to the night.
Mao Qi was not sleepy. Taking advantage of the darkness, he quietly came outside the camp. Just as he was waiting to observe the number of monsters, a wave of spiritual energy suddenly came from the distance.
Mao Qi's spiritual consciousness quickly followed the fluctuations, but failed to take them back. It was as if the fluctuations in spiritual energy just now had never occurred.
At this moment, a crescent moon appeared in the sky, and then roars came one after another from the herd of beasts.
Mao Qi's heart tightened and he felt that the situation was not good. He quickly turned around and returned to the camp.
At this time, the camp was full of people, and everyone was awakened by the roar of the monster. Mao Qi didn't waste any time, and directly asked Qu Qushi and Qu Qiuhu to lead the team, and formed two defenses relying on the fence.
Then he came to Crocodile Yi and Sun Yu'er, left the spiritual shadow with solemn expressions, and left the camp with the spiritual monkey.
The roar slowed down a bit, and then the rumble of footsteps was heard, making the ground tremble.
"With such a large number of monsters, it seems that they are destined to have no sleep tonight." Mao Qi thought to himself.
"Monkey, you and I are responsible for supporting and making sure that the defense is not breached." As the monster approached, Mao Qi shouted and jumped onto a big tree.
"Come on, my long sword can't wait to drink blood." Ququshi whispered, trying to dispel the fear in his heart.
The entire camp was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. Facing an unknown number of monsters, the fear in my heart was greater than fighting against humans.
The sound was close, but the monster's attack never came. Instead, there were earth-shattering low roars and long roars, which constantly impacted the bottom line of the hearts of the Death Team members. Under the intense psychological pressure, some of the soldiers were already wet with sweat.
clothing.
After the screams continued for a while, not only did they not attack, but the roars gradually became weaker.
When the night sky returned to silence again, time in the entire camp seemed to have stopped at this moment. Each soldier still maintained the same posture, and his tense nerves made his mind go blank.
Mao Qi, who was also confused, was stunned for a moment, but then he reacted, and with a slight effort on his feet, he disappeared into the darkness. When he stopped again, the place where the beasts were densely packed just now was now empty.
.
But Mao Qi did not relax his vigilance, his feet were bent, and the realm energy in his body was like a rushing river, ready to deal with emergencies at any time; at the same time, his spiritual consciousness spread out, exploring the surrounding situation.
The remaining breath of the monster was quickly blown away by the night wind, and the night returned to tranquility. But Mao Qi, who was worried, still asked the monkey to explore again.
"The beast herd has retreated, the battle is over, but the vigilance must not be relaxed." Mao Qi's serious voice woke up the team members who had fallen into a dream.
Along with the sound of banging, countless boos and sighs made the camp start to operate again. The instructions were given in an orderly manner, and order was quickly restored.
Looking at the busy and orderly team, Mao Qi's frown relaxed slightly.
"I was scared to death just now!" Seeing Mao Qi coming over, Sun Yu'er breathed a long sigh of relief and said, touching her frightened chest.
"Don't be afraid, the beast herd has retreated!" Mao Qi frowned and comforted.
Crocodile Yi did not speak, but looked at Mao Qi with concern. In fact, Crocodile Yi was not afraid at all.
"Since everything is fine, then you deliberately showed us your bitter face!" Seeing Mao Qi and Crocodile Yi squinting in front of her, Sun Yu'er felt jealous in her heart and glared at Mao Qi angrily.
"It just feels wrong. Maybe I am too taboo about Diling Lake, which affects my normal judgment." Mao Qi smiled.
"Yu'er, are you okay?" Ququshi hurried over after arranging the team, and asked with concern.
"It's okay!" Sun Yuer glanced at Mao Qi with a hint of hatred in the corner of her eyes, and Sun Yu'er turned around and replied to Qu Qushi.
I asked a few questions again with concern, and just as I was about to go out, the monkey had returned from the investigation.
Seeing the monkey, Mao Qi felt nervous, fearing that he would just look around and return without success.
"Brother, I felt a breath just now..." Seeing Mao Qi, the monkey hurriedly stepped forward and said.
"I feel it too!" Before the monkey spirit could finish speaking, spirit spirit rushed to say.
"How many times have I told you, it's rude to take other people's words!" Lingying seemed unwilling to be left out. Before Lingyi finished speaking, he muttered in a low voice. In fact, Lingying didn't feel anything, and the complaint was just to refresh his sense of presence.
For the second brother Lingying, Linghou still maintained considerable respect. After a moment of silence, seeing that Lingying seemed to have nothing to say, he continued: "I followed the remaining aura and chased all the way, and almost rushed into the retreating
Among the beasts, I found that these monster beasts seemed to be very disciplined; and their aura suddenly disappeared at this time. I secretly followed the beasts for a while, and after I found nothing new, I came back to resume my life."
Although the monkey's discovery failed to solve the puzzle of Mao Qi, it confirmed the existence of breath.
"Lingyi, tell me what you found?" Mao Qi was quite satisfied with Ling Monkey's exploration.
"The breath just now was the same as yours, full of spiritual energy. It should be a person." Lingyi thought for a while and said.
"Human, you are too ignorant. When some monsters transcend tribulations and become divine beasts, they can also connect with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, such as me..." the monkey retorted with a teaching tone.
