Soul echo

Chapter 824 Like a Demon

Under the protection of several teams of soldiers, the head coach came near the 'sacrifice ground' discovered by the scouts, and saw the thick bones in the deep pit at a glance.

It was a deep pit with a diameter of 20 meters. The pit was filled with white bones. Tens of thousands of white bones were mixed together. The scouts could only tell through some intact skulls that most of the bones inside belonged to wild animals.

Falcons flying in the sky, wolves and rabbits running on the ground, all kinds of birds and animals.

Judging from the number and types of these bones, the surrounding animals may have been killed by the bloody tribe that once lived here.

The coach didn't quite understand, why did the bloody tribe kill these animals?
These wild beasts have long been mutated due to the influence of the war lord. Ordinary humans cannot eat them at all. Even if they eat them innately, they may be polluted.

Therefore, the army has always prohibited soldiers and rangers who came to Dongtian Fortress to support them from eating animals and plants that grow outside the Great Wall. Even if the bloody tribes did not kill them, they would not eat them. They cause more trouble.

You must know that the beasts that grew up in this ferocious place were not simple, and their power was far beyond the comparison of those unmutated primarchs in the Eastern Land.

However, the bloody tribe had worked tirelessly to kill so many beasts. During this period, the tribe that once lived here must have also suffered a lot of casualties.

"What are they doing..." the coach looked at the pit of bones and muttered to himself, frowning.

There must be a reason for something abnormal. The reason why this tribe would do such a thing must be to gain something from it.

But the Lord of War is not something like a "God of Hunting". He hunted and killed so many beasts, and it is impossible for the Lord of War to give them blessings.

"...If this is the order of the War Majesty?"

Normal hunting of wild beasts is impossible to get the blessing of the Lord of War. The Lord of War likes war and slaughter, but he always only likes killing each other among intelligent life forms.

Hunting a wild beast, no matter how powerful the beast is, will not be blessed by the Lord of War, and the bloody tribe will not do such a thankless thing.

However, if this matter was ordered by the War Majesty, the situation would be completely different.

A thoughtful look flashed in the coach's eyes, "Back to camp!"

…………

The next day, the army set out, Dongtian Fortress stood up from the pit, and continued to advance towards the north.

Lilian came to the outer city of Yupingtian Inner City in Shangqing, looked at the endless barracks in the distance, and couldn't help feeling secretly in her heart.

For Dongtian Fortresses like Yupingtian in the Shangqing Dynasty, Dongtu took out twelve at one time, so the team for this expedition was divided into twelve groups.

Among the army of the Twelve Routes, only 'Shangqing Yupingtian', 'Chengde Yinxuantian' and 'Baoxian Jiushitian' are big caves, and the rest are small caves, so these three big caves are divided into He became the commander-in-chief of the three major routes of East, Central and West.

As the commander-in-chief of the East Road, the army stationed in Shangqing Yupingtian is naturally the largest.

There is only one city in Yupingtian in the Shangqing Dynasty, but there are large forests outside the city, and the army is stationed there now.

The army cut down the woods, and then used local materials to quickly build thousands of wooden houses with magic to accommodate the soldiers.

On weekdays, Shangqing Yupingtian only opened one city gate leading to the outside world, but once it entered the combat mode, it would open the other three, so there was no need to worry that soldiers going to fight outside would be crowded at the city gate.

Today is the third day of going deep into the bloody tribe's territory. Out of caution on the first and second days, the Dongtian Fortress did not advance very fast, and it only traveled tens of kilometers a day. But yesterday, other Dongtian Fortresses seemed to have discovered something. Therefore, starting today, all cave fortresses have accelerated their progress.

They want to force the bloody tribe to return to defense. If they can't get in touch with the bloody tribe's rear, the information will naturally not be transmitted to the front line, and the bloody tribe's army that is invading the elf country will not return to defense.

But the problem now is that they don't know whether the bloody tribe's rear is also moving northward. Judging from the current situation, the bloody tribe has directly abandoned the southern territory. All evacuated.

Fortunately, I didn't know about this before, if I knew, Dongtu's army would have already set off.

But it's too late to say anything now, the bloody tribe has invaded the kingdom of elves, what they can do now is to break through the territory of the bloody tribe before the elves are wiped out, enter the kingdom of elves, and help the elves overcome this difficulty.

If according to the original trend, dozens of legends and millions of troops invaded the elves, the elves might be exterminated within a month, but now Zhong Ye is in the elves, and players are rushing to support them one after another. If there is no accident , the elves should last for a few more months.

As long as they break through the bloody tribe's territory within a few months, they can save the elves.

[Everyone is there, ready for battle! 】

Hearing this sentence, Lilian was stunned for a moment, and then another voice came: [Traces of several tribes have been found, and the reaction of 'Grandmaster' has been detected. 】

——How many tribes can appear "Legends"?
Lilian couldn't help being confused, when did legend become so cheap?

…………

"Found the pursuers!"

Hearing the shouts from the rear of the team, Zhang Bin turned his head and saw a pursuer approaching from the side.

"Fifth team, cut off!"

At this time, the commander in the middle of the team gave an order. Zhang Bin and his teammates looked at each other, took off all the supplies on their bodies, handed them to the panicked elf villagers, and turned around decisively.

They began to set up traps and equipment to stop the pursuers. The elf villagers passed them one by one, and the other players did not look sideways, escorting the elf villagers away.

The protective belt extends to the left and right for dozens of meters, and it would take too much time to go around.

Therefore, the pursuers riding the mad wolf and the healthy horse did not go around, but directly charged the fifth team's defense line.

At the front is a tower shield, and there is a support structure behind the shield, which can be nailed into the ground by the user to resist strong impacts.

The charging cavalry slammed into this wall. If it was just an ordinary wall, it would be easy for him to smash it, but there was a warrior behind the tower shield, so his flail failed to break the shield. He also hit his head badly with his mount.

Seeing this scene, the other pursuers who ran behind the cavalry hurriedly turned around, but their inertia made them unable to stop at all, and they directly bumped into the first cavalry, squeezing out his internal organs.

After enduring the first wave of impact, that player knowingly let go of the tower shield and was pulled aside by his teammates.

The pursuers broke through the only gap in the defense line, but unfortunately they were not in good condition, and their posture when they rushed into the gap was staggering.

Zhang Bin immediately raised the butcher knife and swung it down at one of the pursuers.

More than a dozen pursuers died in the hands of Zhang Bin and his nine teammates.

After killing the enemy, the players hacked their mounts as well, then stuffed a few mines into the corpse's mezzanine, turned and fled.

There were a lot of people in the fleeing team, and many of the elf villagers hadn't gotten much training. Compared with players with stronger attributes, their running speed was too slow, so Zhang Bin and the others quickly caught up with the big team.

Just as the other players wanted to ask about the results of the battle, they heard a few loud noises from behind.

Therefore, the players couldn't help but smile at each other.

But at this moment, a chirping sound sounded over the team, and the team commander suddenly raised his head, frowning.

With a "bang", the bullet flew and knocked down the eagle, but their team had also been exposed.

"The second, fourth, fifth, and ninth squads are out!" The commander calmly issued an order, "Resist to the death!"

Zhang Bin and others who had just returned to the team stopped again, but they were not dissatisfied.

They could see that when an elf child in the arms of the player passed by them, he couldn't help reaching out to grab them.

This alone is enough to make them smile and muster their courage.

"The chasing soldiers are coming from three directions!"

Enemies appear on the left, right, and rear, but to the players, this is nothing.

"Get on the musket, shoot out all the bullets before you die, don't let those dogs pick things up!"

Even though there were hundreds of enemies, these forty players did not show any fear.

When they came here, they disregarded life and death, not to mention, they would not really die—just like those demons from the abyss!
