Chapter 368 Surprise Attack (Ⅰ)

Joan had no food to reward the mangy dogs, so he waved out fine sand mixed with dried flower petals, and chanted mantras to hypnotize all the hyenas around him.

After putting down the group of mangy dogs, Joan quickly left, looking for other small groups of hyenas who were still rummaging for food in the ruins, whistled to call them over, and brought down all of them with a sleep spell.

Repeated this many times, until the "myth power" and "Sid's mana" were exhausted, Joan finally hypnotized all the hyenas in the fishing village before the time limit set by Colonel Harrison.

Standing on the quiet street, Qiao An didn't even care to wipe off his sweat, and hastily made a series of complicated hand gestures to cast the 2-ring "Wind Information Technique".

"Hyola!"

Joan chanted the spell activation character in a low voice.

The lines of the magic net that were evenly distributed in the space suddenly gathered in front of him as if drawn by the vortex.

Numerous lines rotated extremely fast with the magic vortex, forming a small golden whirlwind, which hovered and danced in the air less than two feet away from Joan.

Joan approached the magic whirlwind and explained in a low voice that he had completed the task assigned by Colonel Harrison. He successfully cast a spell to make all the hyenas in the fishing village fall into a coma, clearing a major obstacle for the upcoming raid by his own troops.

The whirlwind created by the "Wind Information Technique" has the magical function of constricting sound waves, absorbing every word Joan said into the eye of the wind and storing it, turning it into a golden air current and flying away.

Qiao An watched the golden whirlwind carrying the information go away quickly, and then activated the "transformation technique" again, changing from the form of the wolf man back to the form of the eagle man, and spread his wings into the sky.

He did this for two reasons.

The first is to avoid being accidentally injured by friendly troops as the accomplices of the Wolf Man, and the second is to become a Eagle Man to overlook the overall situation and monitor the dynamics of the Wolf Man Gang.

Joan spread his wings and soared over the fishing village, all he could do next was wait patiently for the arrival of his own army.

The fishing village is quiet, the streets are reflected by the bright sun, and the weather is scorchingly hot.

The hyenas outside and the jackals inside were sleeping soundly, but Joan was restless, fearing that he might miss something and the whole plan would fall short.

Just when he was worrying about gains and losses, the hot summer wind brought dense hoofbeats.

Joan's heart shuddered, and he turned his head to look in the direction of the sound of hooves, and saw a cavalry galloping along the river beach from a distance.

Joan recognized that it was the Asa Hunter, and the tall knight headed by it was Magni Powhatan who was in charge of leading the vanguard.

The tense nerves eased a little, and Joan turned to look down at the street to check the reactions of the jackals and hyenas.

The sound of horseshoes quickly approached from far to near, and the gloomy roar was like beating a drum.

Joan could hear clearly from a hundred feet in the air, but the hyenas who had been hypnotized by magic seemed unaware, still curled up under the eaves and buried their heads in a sound sleep.

The scene in front of him made Qiao An feel a little relieved. It seemed that the effect of the "sleep technique" was better than he expected.

At this time, the Asa hunters had already approached the entrance of the village. The two hundred Asa hunters who participated in the raid were all good riders who grew up on horseback. Draw the bow and nock the arrow.

At the same time, the gnolls who were taking a nap in the house were finally awakened by the sound of rumbling hoofs. They pushed open the door one after another, and walked out yawning and sleepy. Hyenas act as noise makers.

And when they found out that they had made a mistake with the "punching bag", it was too late to regret it—a dense rain of arrows hit them head-on, accompanied by a scalp-numbing piercing scream, shooting at their bodies, splashing clouds of blood.

The jackals were caught off guard, and no fewer than thirty people were shot into "hedgehogs" by the first wave of arrows from Asa hunting cavalry, and fell outside the door screaming.

The Jackals who escaped the first round of sniping by chance retreated into the house in fright and closed the doors and windows tightly.

At this time, the hyenas who were hypnotized by Joan's spell were finally awakened by the sound of killing, but the second wave of arrow rain came as soon as they opened their eyes.

Half of the hyenas had no time to dodge, and were shot dead by the arrows falling from the head. The rest of the hyenas were also frightened, howling and running in panic.

Magni led the Asa hunting cavalry to raise their bows and shoot again, shooting and killing those jackals and hyenas who were too late to hide in the house.

After three rounds of shooting, there was no activity on the streets.

Magni raised his hand, and the two hundred Asa hunters pulled out a special arrow from their back quiver with their uniform backhands and put it on the string.

Joan could see clearly from the sky, and found that the arrows replaced by the Asa hunters seemed to be thicker than ordinary arrows, but they didn't know what special purpose they had.

With Magni's order, the two hundred Asa hunters let go of their fully drawn bowstrings at the same time, and the thick arrows whizzed across the air in arcs, nailed to the house where the wolf man was hiding, and then exploded with a bang. Fierce flames erupted.

Seeing this scene, Joan immediately realized that the arrows as thick as a thumb fired by Asa hunters were actually hollow, and the inside of the arrow shaft was filled with "blazing glue" and "thunderbolt stone" as the main components. alchemy potion.

When the arrow hits the target, the strong impact first detonates the "thunderbolt", and the high-temperature and high-pressure gas released at the moment of the explosion ignites the "blazing glue", causing a big fire.

Most of the houses in the village are of brick and wood structure, and the roof is covered with dry thatch to prevent rain and moisture.

This kind of building is neither strong nor flammable. After being hit by an arrow, the roof was lifted off by the "thunderbolt", and the wall was blown down, and then ignited by the "blazing glue" sprayed out. The fire spread rapidly and instantly The entire house was surrounded by soaring flames and thick smoke.

The wolf man hiding in the house was caught in a sea of ​​flames at this time. He didn't want to be burned alive, so he could only bite the bullet and rush out of the door to fight desperately. Obviously, even the wolf man would choose the latter path with his not-so-smart mind—— Rush out, at least there is hope of escape.

A loud horn sounded from the fire scene, suppressing the curses of the jackals and the howling of the hyenas, leading the fleeing gangsters to quickly gather in the direction where the horn sounded.

The flames and thick smoke obscured the Asa hunters' field of vision. Under such circumstances, they could not accurately shoot the gnolls who were trying to evacuate the fishing village. Under the leadership of Magni, they spread out to both sides of the village entrance, leaving the mission of chasing the gangsters behind. To the already impatient Vasa Knights.

Qiao An, who was monitoring the dynamics of the battlefield in the air, was also affected by the thick smoke that covered the sky and the sun. He had to use the "Wind Making Technique" to blow away the smoke and dust that blocked his vision, and took the opportunity to dive down to track down the wolf man.

The wings almost brushed against the dancing flames on the roof, and Joan felt the heat wave hit his abdomen, and the feathers on the tip of the wings were almost scorched.

Today is five more, and there is another chapter behind
