Chapter 492: Buried Wolf (Combined Chapter)

"Slurp."

A jade ring fell out of the arms of a Beifeng herdsman, rolled down the grass hill, and soon disappeared.

The herdsman cried out, his face full of reluctance.

He hesitated to leave the team to chase, but soon stopped the idea.

In his arms and on the pack animals beside him.

There were also large and small bags, full of things.

Such a situation is not uncommon.

From a distance, Lu Meng saw it all.

"After all, he was the ruler of the western part of Shandi in the past. Even if he only collected tributes on behalf of the sand bandits, there is still a lot of money to be made in the middle link."

"The Beifeng clan has already seen a middle class similar to the nobility."

"Even if it is just an ordinary herdsman, the living standard is much better than that of other small tribes."

Compared with other small tribes, the supplies and bags carried by the entire Beifeng clan are far beyond the average level.

However, this also slowed down their migration speed.

Lu Meng thought about it and called Kang Man, the leader of the Beifeng clan who had been urging the team behind.

After asking, I found out that the Beifeng Clan had not migrated on such a large scale for a long time.

There are new herders of the younger generation who have lived a life similar to that of settlers since birth.

"After all, in the past, people from the White Eyebrow Clan came to help..." Kang Man hesitated, and even he was a little embarrassed when he said this.

The White Eyebrow Clan is much better than them in terms of military strength and the ability of the tribesmen to tame beasts. In the past, even if there was the same beaked beast disaster, they could have survived it relatively easily with the help of the White Eyebrow Clan.

In addition, it is possible to ask Wumian to help, which is even less of a problem.

So much so that the Beifeng Clan occupied the Evergreen Pasture in the west and lived a happy life, and they were almost losing their sense of crisis.

Therefore, after learning that the White Eyebrow Clan would not support this beast disaster.

They were so panicked.

Hearing this, Lu Meng shook his head and said, "Then at least we can put down some baggage, right? As long as we bring food and water, and move away people and animals, the wild beasts are not bandits, and they will not be interested in the remaining things."

"That's what I ordered..." Chief Beifeng said embarrassedly, "But you know, not everyone can see as clearly as you do, and the people below will more or less pretend to obey..."

"No need to say more about hints." Lu Meng sneered.

How could he not notice that Chief Beifeng was secretly looking at the white tent - it was the only one that had not been packed and dismantled within a few miles.

The people of the Far Traveler Clan once proposed to help Lu Meng dismantle and pack, but were rejected.

It was also a tent, but the structure and weight of this white tent were far superior to other ordinary wandering tents, and it would take a lot of time.

However, Lu Meng could see it from the look in Chief Beifeng's eyes.

Even though the other party gave the order to travel light, if the white tent still belonged to him, he would undoubtedly take it away at all costs.

All of them were reluctant.

Kang Man, who was exposed, apologized in panic.

"I will order them to abandon all the extra baggage..."

"No need now." Lu Meng interrupted him.

When he was still in the North Wind Camp before, he was worried about leaving his own home. The resistance to abandoning the wealth halfway was even greater, which was almost equivalent to a complete loss.

"Call out all the soldiers in your tribe." He ordered, "Follow me to cover the rear."

The North Wind Clan surpassed other small tribes in that they could already afford to support some professional soldiers.

Lu Meng's Blood Spider Corps has returned to the Burning Forest. The wasteland and grassland here in the Flash Land are not suitable for their survival, and there is not so much food to feed them.

The blood spiders can rely on cannibalism for a while, but they will continue to lose people and consumption, and cannot be stationed outside for a long time.

Now we can only try to make use of local forces.

"Yes." Kang Man bowed his head in agreement, but he couldn't help asking, "According to the news from the White Eyebrow Clan, it should be a long time before the Beaked Beasts break out and they migrate to the Flash Land. It's completely in time at the current progress. Why are you so anxious, King Red?"

In fact, this is also the view of most people in the North Wind Clan.

So even if their progress is far behind other tribes, they still don't panic, let alone abandon their wealth.

"Ask your elders or any old herdsmen about this kind of question. Do you need me, an outsider, to teach you?" Lu Meng's tone could not tell whether he was happy or angry, "Just do it."

Watching the North Wind Clan leader retreat and gather people.

Lu Meng also knew that although this large tribe was intimidated by his strength and dared not have any dissent, and almost obeyed his orders...but in his heart, he couldn't say that he was very convinced.

This is also reasonable.

After all, for them, serving themselves and serving the Sand Bandits are no different, just changing the target.

Even when serving the Sand Bandits, they can be more domineering.

However, knowing fear is enough.

"Are you the commander of the Beifeng clan?" Lu Meng looked at a man of medium build and dark brown skin in front of him.

Behind him, there were several hundred tribal warriors who were not strong but very tough.

"Bowei Beifeng." The man saluted by pressing the leather breastplate.

Lu Meng: "You don't look like a herdsman."

"I used to be from Ai Mine Town, and was sold to Shandi after the Blood Rebellion." Bowei stopped talking and didn't want to say more. "There are more warriors in the Beifeng clan, but the rest have to protect the migrating tribesmen along the way. Please forgive me, King Red."

"No problem."

Lu Meng nodded.

Ai Mine Town was once a prosperous city-state in the South United City, but now it has been ruined... It is said that he was sold to Shandi, which should be as a slave.

Although the slavery atmosphere in Shandi is not that strong, this man named Bowei can go from being a slave to being the military commander of a tribe, so he should still have some ability.

"Follow me."

The night deepened, and even though the moon was at its zenith, the light around them gradually dimmed. The warriors who stayed behind lit torches at intervals, and the little flames looked like stars spread on the ground.

The team of the North Wind Clan also gradually went away.

The voices were silent.

Only a large white tent was left standing alone on the top of the grass hill.

At present, this white tent was the only building in the entire western part of Shandi. The people who stayed here were also the people closest to the future beast disaster front.

Time passed slowly.

The tribal warriors who stayed behind were a little anxious.

They looked at the man wearing a plush cloak and standing in front of the white tent, and they couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

The Red King said that people should travel light, but could it be that he was reluctant to leave this gorgeous tent, so he asked them to stay here to guard it?

When they were wandering in the sky, they saw Lu Meng lifting the curtain.

There were no gorgeous decorations, attractive beauties, gold and silver treasures as the warriors imagined... but only rows of camping beds, which were quite inconsistent with the appearance of the white tent.

This kind of outdoor camping bed is very simple, just a thick straw felt with fur, which is quite popular among homeless people.

These herdsmen are not unfamiliar with this, and often use it during marches.

However, they did not expect that:

The Red King actually filled the originally noble patriarch's tent with these crude outdoor camping beds... One person can't sleep on them.

A rough look shows that there are at least hundreds of them. What is this for?

Is it a big bunk bed?

After Lu Meng checked it, he went out of the white tent again.

He was about to say something, but suddenly paused and ordered:

"Draw your bows!"

Hearing this, hundreds of North Wind warriors drew their bows and arrows, kept a distance from each other, and looked around vigilantly.

But their expressions were still a little confused.

"Didn't you hear it?" Lu Meng said softly.

When people looked at each other, Bo Wei's face suddenly changed.

The arrow on the horn bow pointed to a grass hill in the distance.

It was dark in the middle of the night, with only the moonlight from the sky shining down, so they couldn't see clearly.

At this time, a gust of wind blew.

The green and yellow long grass pressed down one after another, but suddenly two green fireflies appeared.

That was a pair of pupils.

"Bone Burial Wolf!" Bo Wei gritted his teeth and said.

In this world, the ancient wolf pack has long been extinct, but their ecological niche will not be vacant like this, and there must be other creatures occupying it.

The most common one among them.

It is the bone dog.

They have spread all over the continent.

But few people know that the bone dogs have a close relative who lives in the wasteland of bones. They are stronger, taller, and more wild and cruel.

They are the bone burial wolves.

This Bone Burial Wolf seemed to have sensed that it had been discovered. It slowly stood up from the ground, not only taller than the knee-high grass, but also taller than half the waist and chest of an adult...

Finally, it was just seen from a distance.

The pair of green firefly pupils seemed to be suspended in the air.

Compared to the bone dogs, this one was at least the size of the head dog among them.

It must have been an elder for many years.

At the moment when the Bone Burial Wolf stood up, it also charged towards the grass hill, running wildly with all four limbs, and a pair of pupils drew a swaying arc in the night sky.

"Awoo woo————"

The warriors of the North Wind Clan were frightened by the sudden appearance of the Bone Burial Wolf, but they did not panic, especially their commander Bo Wei.

From the moment the Bone Burial Wolf was discovered.

His arrows were always locked on it.

In a flash, the Bone Burial Wolf rushed down the grass hill and rushed towards the grass hill where the white tent was.

"Bang!"

The bowstring vibrated.

Before the arrow could hit it, the Bone Buried Wolf suddenly changed its footsteps, and its route became a zigzag shape, passing through like a flash of lightning.

The long arrow nailed its back.

Obviously, this beast from the highlands of the Skeleton Wasteland is not lacking in experience in dealing with human hunters.

However, Bo Wei's arms were still fully stretched with the horn bow!

It was not him who shot the arrow just now.

Just when the Bone Buried Wolf dodged an arrow and ran out of power.

"Pop!"

A firefly in the darkness suddenly went out.

Bo Wei let go at this time, and the flying long arrow hit the wolf's eye directly, and then pierced through the head.

The Bone Buried Wolf let out a miserable "howl" and fell directly to the ground.

"Good job!"

The warriors around cheered for their commander.

Like its close relative, the Bone Buried Wolf, the back of its head is covered with thick bone plates for defense. To use this iron arrow to kill it directly from the front, you can only seize the weakness of the eyes.

But facing a Bone Buried Wolf moving at high speed, how easy is it to hit such a small target as the eyes?

Bo Wei also breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his palms on the fur wrist guard.

He turned around, grabbed the longbow, and bowed to Lu Meng:

"I'm sorry for showing off my skills. I hope I didn't disturb His Majesty the Red King."

There was a hint of humility and complacency in his tone.

After all, this was not an easy move for Bo Wei. Fortunately, he made no mistakes and had a good performance in his first appearance in front of the Red King.

However, what surprised him was that.

He had adapted to life in the Land of Flash for a long time, but the other party actually discovered this hidden and lurking Bone Burial Wolf earlier than him.

It really lived up to its reputation.

Other warriors reacted and wanted to echo him.

This episode made their nerves tense again.

But fortunately, it was only a bone-burying wolf that came. They were not native creatures of Shandi and could not pose much threat...

Unexpectedly, Lu Meng interrupted them:

"You did a good job, but don't relax."

"My order is not for you alone," he turned his eyes from Bo Wei to the crowd, "Don't look, but listen."

In the night sky, there was only the rustling of the grass and the whimpering of the wind.

But soon.

Everyone present changed their faces.

It was not just the sound of grass and wind, but something crawling on the grass, crushing the grass stems, and the suppressed whimpering from between the teeth.

[Basic Attribute: Perception 86]

Of course, when others can also perceive it, it means that the things coming are no longer a single small animal, but a group of noises overlapping... They are approaching!

Just then, a strong wind blew.

The strong fishy smell came to my nose, as if it were real.

The wind direction changed.

The weeds crouched down, revealing the crouching bodies of the wolves buried in the bones.

In the dark night, I don’t know how many green eyes were flashing, like ghostly will-o’-the-wisp.

Their backs formed a gray-white wave.

These beasts were extremely experienced hunters. They had previously used the wind and ambient sound to cover up their smell and movements.

Unknowingly, they had already approached this grassland.

The white tent reflecting the moonlight was the most abrupt target in the dark night.

“Don’t stand there, draw your bow and arrow.” Lu Meng said, “At the same time, be prepared for close combat and stop them here.”

He shook his cloak, and in his right hand he held a knife-like, sword-like weapon with a red glow, and in his left hand he held a strange-shaped crossbow with an inward-bowed arm.

“If this wolf pack catches up with the migrating team, it will be unimaginable.”

The Skeleton Plateau is the world of wild beasts, and it is also famous for the skeletons of various creatures that can be seen everywhere in the wasteland.

The beaked beast is just one of them.

Their activities will inevitably squeeze the living space of other creatures.

Whether to avoid or forage, other predators migrate in groups and set foot in the flash land in advance. This is also predictable.

The appearance of waves of burial wolves is just a prelude to the outbreak of the beaked beast disaster.

Of course, even if it is a prelude.

It may be devastating.

"Awoo————"

With a louder, longer and more unscrupulous wolf howl.

Countless burial wolves roared together, as if they could shake the long wind back and make people's hearts almost stop.

Then, the wave formed by the wolf's back surged.

They charged towards the people trapped on the isolated island of Caoqiu.
