Chapter 554: Camp Robbery

The lizard man team leader led a team of people and quickly shuttled through the jungle. They were riding a mutant beast with a long nose and a bit like a pig. The locals called this animal tapir. Now the mutated tapir has become larger and can be used as a means of transportation in the jungle.

But there are no roads in the jungle. Although the team leader is in a hurry, he can't pick up the speed.

"Captain, it's getting dark soon. Do we need to rest for the night before heading on the road?" asked a lizardman soldier.

"No, this thing must be delivered as soon as possible. We need to walk through the forest overnight." The team leader rejected the soldier's proposal.

So the squad leader urged the soldiers to speed up.

The light in the forest is getting darker and darker, and the roars of wild beasts can even be heard faintly. This is a sign that mutant beasts are starting to come out to look for food. The team leader was anxious, but couldn't get up. Finally, after two hours, the team reached the edge of the forest. As long as they passed through a few more rows of trees, the team could walk out of the forest and enter the swamp area, where their patrols would be. It's safe.

However, at this moment, the soldier running at the front suddenly dismounted his mount. This surprised the squad leader and quickly shouted: "Stop advancing and set up defenses on the spot!"

But before he could finish his words, a soldier behind him screamed and fell off the mutated tapir.

"Get off your mount quickly and hide on the spot!" The team leader knew that he was ambushed.

Everyone got off their mounts in panic and looked for trees to hide. However, as soon as a soldier leaned against a tree, he felt a black shadow in the grass rushing towards him. Before the soldier could roar, a chain hammer struck him. It hit his head, and immediately a corpse with a smashed head slowly fell down.

Such an attack killed five or six lizardmen soldiers in an instant. They didn't know who killed them until they died.

After the lizard man captain rolled off his mount, he did not hide behind a tree. His keen sense of smell made him feel that there was someone in the grass, so he got off his mount, rolled on the spot, and rolled to the other side with the help of the cover of his mount. In the grass, and then slowly crawled backwards, and finally his body was completely hidden in the grass.

The other soldiers were not as lucky as the squad leader, and soon more than a dozen soldiers were dead. At this time, the attackers began to clear the battlefield. They turned over the corpses of the soldiers one by one, as if they were looking for something, but found nothing.

"Why not?" one of the attackers asked.

"Report…"

One of the attackers habitually opened his mouth to answer questions. At this moment, the leader stopped his answer: "I still don't remember what I told you before. Don't report it when you come out. Just tell me the results."

"Yes! We didn't find it. Is it because the things were not on them?" the attacker replied.

"Look carefully to see if there are any that have slipped through the net." said the leader of the attackers.

At this time, when one of the attackers tapped the dead body, he suddenly shouted: "Their heads are not here."

When the leader of the attacker heard this, he immediately shouted: "No, the thing is on the leader. Search it for me quickly. He shouldn't be far away!"

So the attackers began to spread out and search, and one of them searched the bushes where the team leader was hiding.

Although the grass where the squad leader is located is very hidden, the grass is not very dense. If you search here and do a little probing, you can find him. And if you move now, you will definitely be discovered. The squad leader can only stay still and hope that it will be dark. Let the other party miss this place.

However, the next action made the team leader despair. The attackers actually lit torches. Now, as long as the searchers came close to him, his hidden identity would be exposed.

However, this torch also allowed the lizardmen to clearly see the attire of these attackers. Although these attackers were all covered with black cloth, the protruding mouth and the pointed ears that stood up all showed that These attackers were wolf-headed men. What impressed the Lizard Captain even more was that the voice of the leader of the attackers reminded him of the wolf-headed patrol captain with whom he often competed.

"Damn wolf-headed man, if I survive, I must make you look good!" The lizard man team leader gritted his teeth, resisted the urge, and remained motionless. The searcher was getting closer and closer, and the light of the torch had already shone. The edge of the grass.

At this moment, a cry of mutant beasts was heard in the distance, followed by the sound of mutant beasts running.

"Someone ran away! Chase him quickly, don't let him run away!"

Then, some of the attackers started shouting, calling for their companions. The wolf-headed attacker, who had almost reached the edge of the grass, turned around and chased after the shouting. This made the Lizard team leader relax a little, and then began to slowly crawl deeper into the jungle.

Soon, the escaping man was shot and killed. It turned out to be a lizardman soldier who was not completely dead. While the attackers were busy searching, he quietly crawled to the mutant tapir, and then tried to escape on the mutant tapir. Unexpectedly, the attackers had deployed a blocking rope around the jungle. The injured soldier was stopped by the blocking rope before he could run very far. The mutated tapir fell and the wolf-headed man who caught up behind him smashed his head with a hammer and died.

"Damn it, look how you're still running, you've got no head this time, let's see how you're still running!" a wolf-headed attacker said viciously.

"Hey, how did you kill him and leave him alive so that he could ask if the treasure fell to the ground and was with them?" the leader of the attackers who came from behind said anxiously.

"The captain didn't say anything in advance, so he killed the person because his hands were itchy." The wolf-headed soldier said sheepishly.

"Okay, just die. Hurry and search the surroundings to see if anyone has slipped through the net!" After all this trouble, the leader of the attacker team has given up hope of finding the hidden person. As long as he is not stupid, He would definitely take advantage of the chaos just now to escape and hide.

Sure enough, after searching for a long time, I found nothing. The captain of the wolf-headed man team heard the roar of the beast deep in the jungle and said helplessly: "Okay, hurry up and destroy these corpses, and then return to the city with me."

The wolf-headed man team leader now just hopes that he can rush back as soon as possible and tell the leader the news of the mission failure so that he can be prepared in advance.

When these wolf-headed men walked away, the lizard man team leader jumped down from a tree. Looking around, he saw that he was the only one left, and the corpses of his soldiers and the mutated tapirs rushing around were also gone.

Now the lizard man team leader is in some trouble. If he returns to Swamp City now, he will probably be attacked by the wolf-headed man. If he doesn't return, once he encounters a mutated beast in this dense forest, the lizardman team leader will not be able to deal with it.

"Looks like we have to wait for the captain and the others!" The lizard man captain thought, and then quietly sneaked out of the deep forest, found a hidden place, and hid.

Just as the squad leader was waiting for their captain, the camp of the captain was also attacked. Shortly after nightfall, a burst of magic bows and arrows attacked the patrol guards. These lizardmen who were good at bows and arrows were mysteriously He died under the bow and arrow, and then a group of figures quickly approached the camp. When the secret sentries found the attackers, the attackers had already rushed into the camp.

These attackers did not seem to be intending to kill people. They were just setting fires everywhere, causing the camp to burst into flames. This caused the lizardmen in the camp to immediately become confused, and some people hurriedly ran towards the camp of the lizardman captain.

"Captain, it's bad, someone is attacking our camp!" The soldier shouted while running. In fact, he didn't shout. The camp was noisy, and the captain had long heard it.

The captain had consumed too much mental energy due to taking the snake egg during the day, and he has not recovered yet. When he heard the commotion outside, he hurriedly braced himself and stood up: "What happened outside?"

Just when the soldier wanted to answer, suddenly a knife was stabbed into the soldier's body from outside the tent.

"Thank you for leading the way!" A voice said from outside the tent.

Then, a masked man walked in, but the mask had no effect. The protruding mouth and pointed ears all showed that he was a wolf-headed man.

"You...who are you?" The lizard man captain looked at the masked wolf-headed man in surprise.

"It doesn't matter who I am, then hand over what you found today!" the masked wolf-headed man said.

"I gave away the things!"

"Huh, don't lie to me. The people in your team were robbed and killed by us, and the things were not even with them. Where did you put the things?" the wolf-headed man said, shaking the black steel knife in his hand.

"I'm really not here!" the lizardman captain said as he rolled his eyes, trying to think of a way to escape. His current condition was not suitable for fighting at all.

"Hurry up and tell me, I will give you a good time, otherwise I will slice you into pieces with a knife!" the wolf-headed attacker said fiercely.

"Don't think that I can't recognize you as the wolf-headed captain because you are masked. Is your leader planning to rebel?" At this time, the lizard-man captain also became more aggressive because he felt that the other party would not kill him before finding the snake eggs. , it just so happens that I can take this opportunity to find a way to escape.

"Hmph, since someone has come out, then you should die!" Suddenly the wolf-headed man attacked and slashed with a knife.

At this time, the lizardman captain was unprepared. He thought the other party would still question him, but he didn't know that the other party would strike as soon as he said it. If he couldn't dodge, he was stabbed in the heart with a knife. He rolled his eyes and fell to the ground with a plop. Died violently.

The wolf-headed man killed the lizard-man captain and quickly rummaged through the tent, but found nothing. In the end, he took off the lizard-man captain's ring. Before leaving, he said: "Huh, what a girl." You are so poor. If you take a ring, you can exchange it for some wine at the tavern. But I didn’t find the snake eggs. I wonder if the big boss will blame me. Alas! What bad luck!"

After saying that, the wolf-headed man turned around and walked out of the tent. Not long after, the shouts of killing outside the tent gradually subsided, and the attackers withdrew, leaving only dust on the ground and dead and injured lizardmen.

Not long after the masked wolf-headed man left, the soldier who had been stabbed slowly got up from the ground. The stabbing just missed was not fatal. He could hear everything in the room clearly. Chu.

Soon, another soldier ran into the captain's camp, only to find that their captain was dead. The camp was in chaos. Fortunately, there was still a squad leader who survived, so he became the leader here.

The squad leader organized his team, set up camp overnight, and rushed towards the castle with the wounded soldiers.
