Chapter 687 Kobold Gang

Joan held the navigation compass and observed for a long time, finally sighed in disappointment, and turned off the map display.

During the two-day journey, it can be said that nothing was gained in terms of surveying and mapping.

The map displayed on the navigation compass has been explored countless times by the predecessors, and the details including hydrogeography, mineral vein distribution and natural ecology are clearly marked on the existing map.

The work Joan and the others did was so useless that there was nothing worth recording in the Adventure Log.

After all, the adventure has only just begun. Joan also knew that it would be too unrealistic to expect a major discovery in just two days.

Thinking of this, he casually wrote "nothing happened today" in the "Expedition Log", then closed the diary, and fell asleep in the slight rustling sound of the "automatic quill pen" rubbing against the paper.

There is little light at the bottom of the abyss, and the cycle of day and night on the surface world becomes blurred here. But out of physical habits, Joan still got up early the next morning to prepare spells, had a simple breakfast with his teammates, and continued on the road.

The morning trip was lackluster, and just when everyone thought it was going to be another boring day, the siren suddenly sounded ahead.

Like a boa constrictor stimulated, the expedition immediately stopped advancing and formed a defensive position on the spot.

This time, Holden didn't say anything and refused to stay behind and wait for dispatch. With a flick of the rein, he urged the ground lizard to gallop towards the place where the siren came.

Joan had no time to stop the overexcited young poet, and could only watch his back disappear into the depths of the rift and merge into the endless darkness.

"Mr. Zion is too reckless, this is not good." Ryan reprimanded in a low voice.

"The past two days have suffocated him. It's a rare opportunity to show off. Of course, you shouldn't miss it." Angel smiled, "Actually, I also want to go ahead and see what's going on, Joan, Ryan, what do you think? Sample?"

"It's better not to mess around, Arnold knows that we are not disciplined and will lose his temper." Ryan cautiously dissuaded.

"I'll send a letter to my friend in front first to find out what happened, and then decide what to do next."

Joan took out a piece of copper wire, cast the 2-ring "Wind Information Technique", and asked about the situation ahead of Hailar.

A small golden whirlwind flew away, and flew back about five minutes later, circling in front of Joan, and Hailar's reply came from the eye of the wind.

"A group of cunning kobolds set a trap in the canyon ahead, intending to push the rolling stone off the cliff after we enter the canyon, and smash us all into meatloaf!"

"Audrey noticed the kobold's plot in time and reminded Arnold to sound the siren and stop entering the canyon."

"The kobolds' plot was exposed, and they rushed out to attack us in anger... Well, they are cute when they charge with rusty knives, but it's too annoying to throw jars containing poisonous snakes and feces as bombs!"

"Joan, if you are bored, you can come and help."

"Stop talking! I'm going to kill that bastard who shot a hornet's nest at me with a big slingshot!"

Angor and Ryan surrounded Joan, and they both heard Hailar's complaints, and looked at each other and laughed.

"Kobolds are like this. They don't have great skills, but they are very good at playing tricks in the crooked field." Ryan said with a smile.

"Hornet's nest or something is indeed a trouble for those knights in heavy armor. Let's go over and help." Angel pointed to his ear, "Listen—the siren is sounding again, more urgent than before, Arnold is here Call us, they seem annoyed at being harassed by wasps."

Joan nodded, not talking nonsense, and flicked the reins, urging the ground lizard to gallop forward.

Ryan and Angel's riding skills were also good. They followed him from left to right, and arrived at the area where Arnold and his party fought the kobolds in a short time.

Ahead is a deep canyon. The entrance of the canyon is funnel-shaped and the terrain is relatively wide.

More than a dozen knights headed by Arnold lined up outside the "funnel", fighting with the kobolds pouring out of the canyon.

There were more kobolds than Joan expected, at least sixty or seventy at a glance, trying to surround and annihilate the knights.

A weak creature like a kobold, against elite knights wearing armor and holding strong shields and swords, four or five times the number advantage is not enough to break through the defense line, but their endlessly weird "bombs" have caused a lot of trouble for the knights , had to be distracted to drive away the wasps and avoid clay pots full of feces or poisonous insects.

Arnold is undoubtedly the most eye-catching among all the knights, holding a magical sword that exudes frosty cold air, and slashing into the enemy group alone.

The giant sword waved into a whirlwind, and the kobolds flew in blood and flesh wherever it passed, like harvested wheat, being swept down by the giant sword one by one.

Even the kobolds who were far away from Arnold were trembling from the cold due to the extremely cold air flow caused by his giant sword called "Frost Ming", and fled in panic.

Joan looked away from Arnold, who was killing so much, and found Holden who had arrived first on the other side of the battlefield.

Mr. Poet stood not far behind Audrey and Hyrule, singing an inspiring battle song loudly.

When the knights on their own side heard Holden's magical singing, their courage doubled, their fighting spirit was high, and their combat effectiveness was significantly improved.

Audrey was dressed in silver heavy armor, holding a knight's shield painted with the "Anemone" emblem in her left hand, and a shiny long sword in her right hand, standing at the front of the position to resist the siege of the kobolds.

Her Royal Highness did not deliberately show her personal strength, and focused on controlling the overall situation of the battlefield.

Especially after Arnold rushed into the enemy group alone, Audrey decisively took over the command of the knight squad, urging her companions to fight calmly, not to rush forward, and to dispatch people in time to fill the gap in the defense, so as not to be scattered by the enemy.

The battlefield is like a "touchstone". How good a person is and what role is suitable for him is fully reflected in the fierce battle.

Most of the young knights who participated in this encounter were originally Arnold's fans, and believed that this noble young master was the undisputed leader of the team.

However, when it was actually on the battlefield, people discovered that Arnold's strengths and flaws were equally prominent.

Arnold's personal strength is indeed outstanding, and his brave and fierce fighting style is also admirable.

But his shortcoming is that he is too brave. He only cares about fighting alone and rushing, but he ignores the strength, courage and even actual combat experience of his companions who are far inferior to his companions. Does not have the handsome talent to control the overall situation.

In contrast, Audrey, who is a woman, commanded decisively on the battlefield and appeared to be more general-like. Every decision she made before the battle was proved to be a wise move afterwards, and she quietly won the young knight. With their trust, he replaced Arnold as the real commander on the battlefield.
