Kate looked at the huge man-eating lion carcass on the ground and said: "Let's drag these two to the entrance of the cave first, and the first one that was killed just now, and then we will go to the cave to search
, the lioness who was hit by the arrow at the beginning should be almost dead, but it cannot be ruled out that there are other lions in the cave."
Steven nodded, Kate grabbed the lion's hind legs and dragged it towards the cave, while Steven walked towards the lion he had just killed.
After a while, the two of them spent a lot of effort to drag the two huge corpses to the entrance of the cave. Then Steven dragged the corpse of another man-eating lion here, and later they chopped off a few pieces.
A torch was tied to a branch, and after being lit, Kate held the torch and followed Steven into the cave.
Steven led the way. The cave was actually quite deep. Soon after entering the cave entrance, the space in the cave gradually increased. The two of them walked forward for dozens of meters one after another. The cave turned to the right in front.
When he was about ten meters away from the corner, Steven noticed with his senses that there was a lion behind the corner. It was hiding behind and lowered its body, preparing to pounce on the two people who were about to turn around.
Steven stopped and gestured to Kate. Kate took a few steps back and pulled out the sword on her back. Steven paused for a moment, then accelerated quickly and rushed around the corner.
The lioness behind the corner miscalculated Steven's speed. She was about to pounce, but Steven had already passed the corner.
After Steven turned around, he ran forward a few steps and was behind the lioness in an instant. The lioness noticed that Steven had rushed behind her, roared, turned around and rushed towards Steven. At this time, Steven
Tiwen had already rushed forward, jumped sideways in mid-air and passed by the lioness, and stabbed the lion under the shoulder with the straight knife in his hand.
The straight knife passed through the lioness' fur and muscles, and pierced her heart. After the two crossed each other, Steven's straight knife was pulled out from the lioness' body in his direction, and the lioness was stabbed while she was still in the air.
A stream of blood spurted out from the wound and sprayed on the cave wall. After the lioness landed, her front paws collapsed on the ground, her limbs twitched, and she lost her life within a short time.
The two ignored the corpses on the ground and continued to search forward. After walking a few dozen meters, they finally came to the end of the cave. The space here was large and the terrain was flat. There was a dead lioness lying on the ground in the middle.
For some time, the feather arrow was stuck in its neck, and the blood flowing all over the ground had solidified.
The surrounding area exuded a stench mixed with blood. The two searched the two hundred square meters for a while, and found a pile of human bones that had been eaten clean in the corner. There were also some broken bones scattered around.
After carefully counting the pieces of leather armor and clothing, it seemed that all the remaining members of the mercenary group had been killed, and had been eaten by these lions, leaving only the bones.
After the two searched the entire cave and found nothing else, they exited the cave. It was already past noon.
They ate something simple in the woods outside the entrance of the cave, took out a map and marked the location of the cave on the map. Then Steven pulled out a straight knife and cut off the head of a man-eating lion, and Kate cut off the head of the other two.
The ears of a man-eating lion were cut off, and the two dragged several corpses into the cave. Then Steven carried the huge lion head, and Kate carried the four lion ears and walked out of the woods.
After a while, they came to the place where they entered the jungle in the morning, fixed the lion's head on the horse's back with a rope, got on the horse, and galloped towards the base.
On the way, the two discussed the elemental skills used by the three man-eating lions.
They should be mutant monster lions with the ability of the wind element, which can emit powerful transparent shock waves. This may be an extremely compressed air mass that is emitted after some kind of exacerbation reaction in the lion's throat, but this kind of
Long-range attacks also seem to have certain limitations, that is, it takes a long time after launching once before launching a second time, but even so, ordinary warriors basically cannot avoid such attacks without knowing the situation clearly.
Moreover, this method of using elemental power that uses the wind element to launch shock waves may not be replicated by humans, because humans do not have the structure of a man-eating lion's throat. This is a special attack method that can only be produced by combining elemental power with the user's characteristics, just like the two
Just like the mutant Kuman crocodile encountered in the dark forest swamp.
On the afternoon of the next day, the two of them saw the iron gate of the base from a distance. Outside the gate stood the two guards with guns they met last time. The two guards already knew the two of them and saw them coming on horseback.
, the red-haired man and his partner greeted the two of them, and then opened the iron door.
The two rode through the iron gate and walked toward the square. The two guards immediately discovered the huge man-eating lion head hanging on the back of Steven's horse. They couldn't help but screamed in shock. Their shouts attracted the attention of the surrounding houses.
, some people walked out of it, and then saw the lion's head.
When the two men tied the horses to the wooden pillars on the porch outside the warehouse, more and more people came around. Everyone was talking about the huge head in amazement and were shocked by the sharp fangs. At this time, the two men
People have already entered the main building, passed the stairs and arrived in front of Patterson's office.
Kate knocked on the door, and Patterson said please come in. Then the two entered the office. Patterson was still wearing a neat shirt and vest, and a pair of silver-rimmed glasses. He picked up the information from the pile of information on the desk.
Zhong raised his head, stood up immediately after seeing the two of them, walked over from behind the table, shook hands with the two of them and exchanged greetings.
Steven said to him: "Mr. Patterson, please tell Captain Elt that the results of our search are not very good. All his members have been killed. We feel very sad about this. We are in the man-eating lion's territory."
Their bones were found in the lair."
Patterson closed his eyes, stood for a while and said: "I will tell Commander Elt that this operation is thanks to these two gentlemen! I will pay your commission later and please take a rest at the base.
Several other members of the Sword Mercenary Group are rushing to the base from Pony City. After they arrived, they asked Mr. Lancelot and Mr. Hopson to join me in reporting the course of this operation to the mercenary group."
"Please call us Steven and Kate, Mr. Patterson. We will wait for the other members of the mercenary group to arrive. There is one more thing I want to tell you, Mr. Patterson."
Patterson nodded and smiled and said: "Okay, Steven, then you..."
At this time, more and more noisy sounds came from outside the office window. Patterson frowned and walked to the window. He then saw the two horses surrounded by the crowd and the huge and conspicuous cannibal hanging on them.
