Chapter 424 Ant Colony

After the short battle, Master Niu immediately got busy.

During the whole battle, the sword and shield players in the first two rows suffered countless attacks.

After the solid alloy full body armor blocked all the attacks for them, it is conceivable that under the armor, these mountain cannons are definitely covered with bruises.

It's just that for these powerful animals, as long as there is no severe injury such as broken arms, broken legs, or broken ribs, they can be regarded as minor injuries.

What made Mr. Niu nervous was that more than 20 unlucky people were stabbed through the gaps in the armor.

After a few breaths of blowing arrows in their bodies, they fell headlong to the ground. The venom smeared on those wooden thorns was simply insane.

Fortunately, after some inspections, Master Niu was finally relieved. These people were not poisonous at all, but similar to the venom used by the female warriors in the western veins of Luolei Mountains, they could only paralyze their opponents. The effect of making the opponent unconscious quickly.

The only difference is that the narcotic venom of these dwarf natives seems to be more powerful...

After winning this battle, there are two roads before Master Niu: one is to take the tribe back outside the forest and join the hired tribes. Between still reluctant, did not leave.

On the other hand, if you don't bother to talk to those greedy guys, just keep moving forward; it's just that marching in such a dense forest and needing to be on guard against the sneak attacks of those dwarf natives is indeed quite troublesome.

After deliberating for a while, Master Niu decisively chose to continue leading the team forward. As for the indigenous tribes in the desert, they like to stay, so they stay outside the forest.

So, Master Niu asked the cannon fodder to lift up more than 20 unconscious fighters, and continued to march deeper into the forest.

For these unprotected cannon fodder troops, they were lucky to be surrounded by the middle of the team; on their periphery were those bald fighters in full body armor.

What these cannon fodders need to do is to smash the arc-shaped stone knife in their hands at the fastest speed when the bald people on the periphery are attacked.

Anyway, there are a lot of these things on the battlefield. If you pick them up casually on the ground, each person can collect a lot.

Due to the need to maintain the formation at all times, and the sword and shield fighters at the front of the team would have to wield their thick-backed machetes from time to time to cut a path through the forest, the marching speed was really hard to say how fast.

It's just that as the team continued to move forward, along the way, they didn't know how many human bones they found.

Judging from the specifications of the white bones, their owners are definitely outsiders outside the oasis, and these people have died here for an unknown number of years. Many white bones will shatter into bone scum all over the ground with a light touch. .

Over the years, I don't know how many people found this place for the Fountain of Youth and Dragon Orchid Grass, these two illusory things, and then died here.

During the continuous march, those dwarf natives would attack from time to time.

What surprised Mr. Niu was that he always felt that the attacks of these dwarf natives were not very powerful at all, as if they were waiting for a better opportunity to attack.

Sure enough, as the sky gradually darkened, Master Niu clearly felt that the number of dwarf natives who followed the team far away began to increase.

Immediately, he guessed the thoughts of these dwarf natives. They just wanted to use the night and the more familiar terrain to launch sneak attacks and night battles.

Soon, Master Niu used the facts to prove that the ideas of these dwarves and natives were too naive.

The strong flashlights in the hands of the mountain cannons made the sneak attack of the dwarves a joke. After two consecutive sneak attacks and finally dropped thousands of corpses, they never appeared again.

The non-stop progress overnight made everyone's spirits a little numb.

After dawn, just as Master Niu was planning to find a place for everyone to stop and have a rest, the scenery in front of them suddenly opened up, and before they knew it, they finally walked out of the forest.

Surprisingly, after walking out of the lush forest, the place in front of me was replaced by the Gobi full of stones.

The location of this Gobi is not big, that is, a radius of more than ten miles, in the center of the entire forest; there is a small rocky mountain in the middle of the Gobi, and a huge cave at the bottom of the rocky mountain is unusually eye-catching.

From the moment they saw the entrance of the cave, everyone knew that if those two treasures really existed in this oasis, then they must be in the entrance of the cave...

The team stopped when they walked outside the entrance of the cave. Looking in from the outside of the cave, the inside was so dark that they didn't know how deep it was; so it was definitely not a big deal to rush in before recovering everyone's energy. good idea.

After sending out a team of soldiers to guard against the forest, the team started to work and eat, and then took turns to rest.

It's just that those dwarf natives who were like lingering ghosts didn't have any intention of catching up. They poked their heads out of the forest faintly and kept looking at the team here.

But no matter what, they have never stepped out of the forest, as if there is something they are extremely afraid of on the Gobi.

After sleeping until two o'clock in the afternoon, Master Niu felt that his mental and physical strength had completely recovered, and it was time to start exploring the cave.

At this time, the twenty or so wounded who fell into a coma after being poisoned by the venom on their bodies also woke up. Apart from being a little depressed, these people had no other conditions, but in the past two days , expecting them to continue fighting, I am afraid it is impossible.

Master Niu left a hundred cannons under his command, led two hundred cannon fodder, and stayed here with more than two dozen wounded, guarding their retreat.

After that, he led the remaining 400 people and walked towards the cave with a flashlight.

The cave is very large, more than 20 meters high and more than ten meters wide, which doesn't make people feel depressed at all; the problem is, after walking many miles along the cave, the dense bones in front of us are heading deeper into the cave. place, paved all the way in.

In addition to those of normal people, the bones here finally appeared in large numbers from those dwarf aborigines.

Obviously, there is definitely a stronger danger in the cave. Faced with such a danger, everyone has no better way than to hold the weapons in their hands tightly.

After continuing forward for hundreds of steps, there was a sudden tooth-settling 'rustling' sound, and Master Niu quickly shone the flashlight in his hand.

After just one glance, Master Niu yelled, "Run! Run out of the cave if you want to survive."

Under the illumination of the flashlight, there were endless ants, each of which was no bigger than the thickness of a thumb. At this time, Master Niu and the others finally knew how those clean bones were produced...
