Chapter 191: Night Attack
Snowy jungle, somewhere.
Gao Sai and his party, under the leadership of the leader, cut down a clearing as a temporary campsite, two bonfires were lit, the flames began to dispel the cold around them, and the three felt tents were even more isolated from the cold fog in the forest - compared to the dense fog before sunrise, after the sun disappeared, the dense fog in the snowfield dense forest made people feel more frozen into the bone marrow.
The felled trees, the two great knight leaders worked together to lift and pile up, and surrounded the three tents in the middle, forming a wall that seemed to be a 'concave' shape, so that the safety of the entire camp was raised in an instant, and when the two high knights began to make a zuò dinner, the remaining six people, except for the two leaders, were divided into two groups, one group began to guard and patrol, and the other group was to rest.
In the wild, if you want to have enough body, rest is a must.
And how to rest better is a university question.
However, the Gao Sai people who were born in the military are obviously familiar with it, and they know how to distribute.
Chuck, one of the leaders, patrolled the area with the first group, and when he made sure that there was nothing to worry about, he returned to the campfire where Udel was, and on the other side of the campfire was already set up two skinned rabbits and a wild horned sheep—in such a primeval forest, even if the snow was thick, it was still very easy to find food if you had the strength.
"Where are we now?"
Chuck twitched his nose and felt the aroma of rabbit and lamb before turning his head to look at Udel, who was studying the map.
"Roughly here!"
Udel held out his finger. A little on that map. And then. He pointed to the front side of the map and said, "Our destination should be here, and it will be about a day away!" ”
"Hurry up! It's really damp and cold here, and I suspect that if I stay any longer, my sword will rust! ”
Chuck muttered, far less aloof in front of strangers; Or rather...... It's arrogant—he pursed the corners of his lips and continued, "That damn jade monkey, I'm going to give him a good lecture when I get a chance!" ”
"'Giant Transformation' plus 'Flame' talent...... Even having just completed the baptism of knighthood. But the strength of the explosion has begun to approach the big knight! Udel didn't raise his head, but studied the map carefully, and said, "You can't kill him silently, so let's study the map!" ”
"Damn it, I hate Emerald Monkeys, and I hate to look for a place on the map where I don't know the exact location!"
Chuck muttered again, but still leaned over. However, when you see that large area marked on the map. Chuck couldn't help but say, "I'm afraid that such a large range of Master Momon and Sikede are still circling in it, Lord Prince should be waiting patiently!" ”
"That's why we need to speed up, and ...... Don't judge the Prince's thoughts! ”
Udel frowned, reminding his companion.
Chuck was stunned for a moment, then nodded again and again, with a hint of palpitation on his face.
For the lord to whom they are allegiated, in addition to the respect they deserve, they also have a considerable fear, for the meritorious person, the lord to whom they are loyal will never be stingy, but for the person who makes a mistake, they will never show mercy, especially those who have no merit, but like to chew their tongues, and will not have a trace of tolerance.
"Ahh
Just as Chuck was about to say something, a scream suddenly appeared.
The two great knights stood up suddenly, took their weapons and rushed towards the place where the screams appeared.
About twenty yards away from the campsite, a knight of the high race was lying on the ground, blood left on the ground, and when the two big knights arrived, he had already lost his breath.
"Approaching from behind, and then, piercing the heart with a dagger through the gap in the armor under the ribs, completely destroying the heart......"
Udel crouched there and examined it carefully, then stood up and said to Chuck, who was on guard.
"What type of dagger is this?"
Chuck glanced at the wounds on his subordinate's corpse and asked, somewhat uncertain.
"Thin, slender...... The kind that the jade thieves love the most, and the method is clean and neat, it should be a veteran thief...... Not good! ”
Udel said, his face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed.
And Chuck, who thought of something, also had a sudden change in his face.
However, just as the two great knights turned to return to the temporary camp, a flash of fire began to appear at the camp.
There was no wailing or screaming, but there was a fire mixed with smoke.
Udel and Chuck knew that their camp and the men who remained in it were finished, otherwise it would have been impossible to let the camp catch fire without making a sound.
"Damn, who the hell is it, you give it out! Come out! ”
Chuck yelled angrily, but no one answered, only the other two Gausai knights on patrol and guard ran over, looking at the burning camp in disbelief.
"Fight the fire!"
Although he knew that those subordinates had no hope of survival, Udel still gave such an order with the possibility of just in case.
Covered by the raised snow, the flames quickly subsided, and a look of disgrace appeared in front of the remaining four Gosai people.
The slightly charred ground, the gray-black wreckage was their salute, and the charred corpse was their companion.
Nothing was left behind, and nothing alive.
Nothing was left except the horses tied to the makeshift camp.
"The body was charred, and there was no way to distinguish it...... However, to be able to accomplish such an operation at the same time, there were at least four people on the other side - one of them deliberately lured us out, and then, two of the remaining three men attacked Tuke and Er, who were making the dinner, at the same time. And then. Attack the resting trio again. Then set fire to our camp! ”
Udel rubbed his eyebrows and gave a rough inference.
"Damn, these rats who only know how to sneak attack!"
Chuck yelled.
"They should not be as strong as us, at least, they don't have two big knights, so ...... Instead of choosing a more radical approach, they are weakening us in a roundabout way! Udel was quite calm and began to arrange it in an orderly manner. You two go and gather up the horses, bring them here, and then clean them up, and slaughter one of them for food, and we need to keep enough of our bodies - those guys must be eager for us to leave the horses for us to leave them overnight, there will definitely be a trap ahead, and if we don't act, the other side will probably attack us again, and when the time comes...... Hum! ”
Speaking of which, in the end. Udel snorted coldly, expressing his anger and disdain.
Anger at the underestimate of the enemy before him. and injustice to war horses.
Disdain for the shallowness and ignorance of the other side.
Udel vows to make the other person look good!
Therefore, having eaten enough horse meat, he was put on guard with a knight in a division with Chuck, and until dawn there was no attack.
Udel stood there with a slightly ugly face—
"It didn't show up! Could it be that I guessed wrong? No, no, definitely not...... It must be that those guys don't have enough confidence to deal with me and Chuck! That's right, that's it! ”
Udel believed in his speculation.
"Get on your horse and watch out for the ambush!"
He said so.
Suddenly, everyone including Chuck became cautious.
And under such a careful premise, the range of destinations that could have been reached in one day was less than one-third.
Although the journey was shortened by two-thirds, the effort was more than doubled.
Any wind and grass along the way made the four Gosai people nervous for a long time, like frightened birds, and until sunset, when they camped again, even Udel and Chuck were a little unable to bear it, and the two Gosai knights were a little shaky.
"Eat, rest, I'll take care of it!"
Udel's face was extremely ugly, and it was evident that he also knew that he had fallen for the enemy's plan.
However, at this time, Udel would not admit it honestly, he was still carrying it - after all, this was his knightly dignity.
Chuck's inquiry again, although Udel refused, but he still insisted, but the two knights beside him fell into a deep sleep - in fact, last night's attack had left them without a real sense of rest, and the tension of this day had greatly depleted their bodies and energy, plus the rush of the previous day.
Even the knights were a little overwhelmed.
And while the two great knights continued to be on guard, Dean, who made this qiē, was draped in a white blanket, lying in a snowfield, quietly observing the Gosai people's every move.
Although Dean set off two days late, Dean had caught up with these Gosai a day earlier than the Gosai who were groping their way forward, and had a clear direction.
Then, after observation, the sneak attack was launched.
Except for luring the two big knights out of the camp, which made Dean quite careful, attacking the camp was a breeze for Dean, as long as he found a good angle, [Dragon Flame Breath] completely solved those distracted or sleeping High Sai Knights.
Even, it's even simpler than Dean had guessed.
At least, he didn't face the slightest resistance.
Obviously, in the face of his ability [Power Burst], the power of 4.61 converts 120% of the magic flame damage, and the ordinary knight level is vulnerable.
However, this is only for the knight level, for the big knight level, although it also has the effect of instant killing, but the time cooldown of [Dragon Flame Breath] and the number of opponents make Dean have to be careful, just like now, he is constantly consuming the opponent's body and energy.
Strive to put a few more chips on the balance of victory.
