Their request was simple, they wanted to follow the caravan back of Variif tomorrow and receive a little care and protection.

A large merchant group like Varif is still rare among caravans traveling between the East and the West.

Most of the caravans were medium-sized or small-sized caravanserais, and almost all of these small and medium-sized caravans lived precarious lives.

Especially when they walked on the desert trade road every time, the principal had to worship almost all the gods and goddesses every day, even worshipping the demon gods and demon kings.

A caravan like this can't withstand much risk on the trade route at all, and a slightly larger number of monster attacks may directly kill them.

Just like the invasion of those strange groups of less than a hundred that Xue Hua and the others encountered a few days ago, for Varif's caravan, only the caravan escort could solve the problem.

But if a small caravan collides, I'm afraid you'll have to use all the strength to deal with it.

In many cases, even the principals had to go into battle in person, and the men, women, and children in the ranks, all of them had to take up arms and fight hard.

If the number of monsters is a little larger, it will be equivalent to a catastrophe for them.

Moreover, in a small caravan like this, there would simply be no professional willing to follow them, it would be purely a joke with their own lives.

Along the way, Xue Hua saw the wreckage of many caravans half-buried in the sand, and even human bones, most of which were left behind by the small caravans.

In contrast, medium-sized caravans are slightly better, but they are also limited, and they also have special escorts, and sometimes even professional followers.

However, their guards are small in number, and their ability is inferior to that of large caravans.

The number of professionals following was also very small, like the medium-sized caravan that Xue Hua saw now, in which only two assassins followed.

Moreover, one of the two assassins actually had wrinkles on his face, obviously very old, but his level was only enough to reach level 12.

A professional like this can only be said to be stronger than ordinary mercenaries in terms of combat effectiveness, but that's all.

Their potential has almost been exhausted, and their combat capabilities have deteriorated due to the aging of their bodies.

The desire to live in life has long ceased to be an effort to improve the level and lifespan.

Instead, he hopes to go to Lugoin while he can still move, and use his life savings and his status as a professional to buy a house in the outer city of Lugoin, so as to spend his old age in peace.

With such a professional following, the owner of the medium-sized caravan had no confidence in the safety of the caravan, so he pinned his hopes on Varref's caravan, hoping to get a chance to seek refuge by releasing goodwill.

It's not easy for Xue Hua to get involved too much in this kind of thing, he took advantage of Varif to get out of the way when he was polite with the other party, and ran to find his two small animals.

However, when he returned to the caravan, he found that the two little girls were not inside, and only the old man Kane was sitting by the stove reading by the candlelight.

"Xue, you're back." Startled by the sound of Xue Hua opening the curtain door, Kane looked up from his book.

Thanks to Xue Hua's blessing, his car full of books has been preserved intact, and this incident has also made his attitude towards Xue Hua more friendly.

"What about Anne and Funia?" Xue Hua walked indoors and took a look, then turned back to Kane and asked.

"Anna came just now, and she said that she wanted Funia to teach her how to cook, and Funia agreed, so she followed her to the kitchen, and Anne followed her because she was not at ease." Kane smiled, replied casually, and buried his head in the book.

"Funia, this little thing, how can she be abducted so easily~

And Annie, where is this little girl who is not worried about her sister, this is clearly Zhengda Guangming ran to steal food......"

Hearing Kane's words, Xue Hua suddenly hated itchy, Anna was a female mage in a professional team that he once took two girls to run through the door, she was warm and cheerful, but her temper was a little too hot~

He wasn't very worried that the two girls would really be abducted, but he was just upset that Funia didn't call him the master when she cooked......

"I'm going to find them... By the way, Mr. Kane, do you have anything you want to eat? ”

Xue Hua opened the curtain and was about to jump down again, but then he suddenly thought of something, and suddenly turned his head and asked Kane.

"You little one... Forget it, it's enough to bring me some nut muffins back......" Kane heard this question, and his face suddenly showed a crying and laughing expression, he knew that Xue Hua was just using him as an excuse, so he just ran to the kitchen to steal food.

"Hey~hey~Then I'll go~ I'll be back soon!" Xue Hua touched the back of his head embarrassedly, but there was no embarrassment on his face that the "conspiracy" was seen through, and he laughed cheekily twice, then turned around and jumped out of the caravan.

However, just as he was walking towards the kitchen with a small tune, thinking in his heart about asking the good little cook Funia to cook something for him as a love supper, in the mind of the main nest, the king insects that he put on guard on the periphery suddenly sent him a warning of an enemy attack!

Xue Hua immediately shifted his vision to the vision of the king worm, and then he saw that behind the platform where the caravan assembly point was back, there was a tribe of cat people numbering about five thousand quietly ambushing there.

They even sent a scout force to sneak up on the assembly point from both flanks of the mesaga.

"What the hell? Why does the monster projection still use undulating tactics? What kind of doppelganger fragment is it? Xue Hua looked at the infrared vision of the king insect in surprise, and the cats who acted in a uniform manner and advanced and retreated in an extremely orderly manner were filled with doubts in his heart.

The cats slowly sneaked up near the eastern entrance to the assembly point, and quietly ambushed themselves with the help of the shadows of the mesa and the rolling sand dunes, and they did not attack immediately, but waited quietly in the shadows, waiting for the night to fade, waiting for the human sentinels to let their guard down due to fatigue.

"Oh my God! I'm afraid this isn't the real thing, right? Xue Hua stared at their dexterous movements and stealth skills that almost melted into the shadows, and felt a chill run down his spine.

"Lord, these creatures are still just images of energy formations, and the only reason why they are so special is that their leader has a very peculiar psionic trait that seems to allow the image of this leader to inherit most of the memories and combat skills of its deity, and this leader also has the ability to rally and command his subordinates."

"Psionic properties? You're talking about the special abilities of the champion monster, right? Something like a special curse or aura boost? ”

Xue Hua frowned, he didn't remember such a strange special affix in the game?

What should this ability be called?

Groups?

There is this affix in the three generations of games, but it is not accurate, is it?

"Forget it, don't worry about that, order the dragons, and drive these would-be rat-making cats out of the shadows for me!"

The group of dragons had been hovering high above Xue Hua's head, ready to join the battle at any time.

When they received Xue Hua's order, a terrible scream suddenly tore through the quiet night sky.

The dragons ended their circle, and quickly launched a fierce dive towards the hiding place of the cat people.

The scream of the xenosaurus spread far and far in the empty and silent desert, and almost the entire assembly point was alarmed by the terrifying sound.

In the center of the assembly point, Varref, who was negotiating the price of attachment with the other two caravan leaders, almost bounced off the cotton blanket under his ass when he heard the piercing screech.

He recognized the voice!

It was the howling of some kind of flying summon of that Lord Xue!

"Prepare for battle!"

He shouted, Lord Xue would not casually display his summons, and once they appeared, it meant that an enemy was coming!
