Chapter 538 Night Attack

Although there are new forces joining the adventurer industry, their growth always takes time and they cannot become effective combat forces in a short period of time.

Herag sat in a carriage at the end of the caravan, and he was responsible for watching the area near the end of the caravan.

Ferry was at the front of the caravan, and Ferry's subordinates were responsible for the middle area of ​​the caravan and the exploration of the situation in front.

Ferry's adventure group cooperated very well, and it was obvious that they had cooperated for many years.

Who was responsible for reconnaissance and who was responsible for logistics supply were clearly divided.

Half a day after the caravan set out, Ferry's subordinates rode from the front and found some situations.

There was a dense forest in front, and there were three overturned carriages in the dense forest.

The horses pulling the carriages fell to the ground and were eaten to the point that only bones were left.

In addition to the corpses of horses, there were many human remains at the scene.

But not even a complete corpse could be seen, and the only remaining remains also had signs of biting.

There were also many footprints of various shapes at the scene.

"It's a group of monsters." Fei Rui dismounted and observed the ground for a while and said.

Unlike wolf packs, which only have one species of wolf, monster packs are generally composed of multiple monsters, so the footprints at the scene look very messy, with all kinds of monsters.

"We have to cheer up, guys!" Fei Rui said solemnly.

The traces on the ground are still fresh, indicating that the group of monsters have not gone far and should be wandering nearby.

"Speed ​​up and leave this area as soon as possible." Fei Rui commanded.

Herag heard it clearly at the rear of the car and saw the traces on the ground.

He looked up at the sky. It was noon, and there was still half a day to travel, and he didn't know if it would be enough.

After seeing this scene in the dense forest, the atmosphere in the caravan was obviously much heavier, and most people had some worried faces.

...

At dusk, the caravan had arrived at the entrance of a mountain range and stopped at a place with a mountain.

This place has a mountain behind it, so it only needs to guard the other directions.

Even if there is an unexpected situation, they can retreat to the mountains and not be left with no way to retreat on the plains.

Ferry's adventure group is very professional, with very strict defenses, and they have arranged good people to patrol around at any time to investigate the situation.

Herag's task is to guard the camp, and he cannot leave the camp easily without special circumstances.

At night.

Herag sat by the campfire, watching the firewood in the campfire burning, crackling from time to time, and a wisp of green smoke drifted away with the sound of explosions.

The first half of the night was very quiet, and Herag sat by the fire with his eyes closed.

Until the second half of the night, the camp was very quiet, with only some snoring.

Herag suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Wake up, something is approaching."

He deliberately raised his voice, and the camp was also very quiet.

So his voice directly woke up everyone in the camp.

These people are always on the move, and they are very alert. No one will sleep so soundly.

Those who sleep very soundly in the wild usually don't live too long.

"What's going on?" Ferry came over and asked. He hadn't noticed anything yet.

Torre also came over, and he didn't notice anything unusual.

But they didn't think Herag was joking. A great knight wouldn't be bored enough to make such a joke.

Herag looked to the east and said, "If I heard correctly, there should be a group of monsters coming over there."

Ferry didn't doubt what Herag said, but asked, "How many are there?"

"I can't be sure, but there should be a lot from the sound." Herag said.

As soon as these words came out, the people in the camp became nervous.

Ferry acted quickly and immediately commanded the people in the adventure group to start building a defensive formation.

Herag drew out his long sword and stood in the center of the camp.

According to the arrangement, he was responsible for guarding here and couldn't go out to fight the enemy rashly.

In order to prevent monsters from touching the middle of the camp from other directions, causing the camp to be empty of power.

Soon, Ferry and Torre also heard the movement in the east.

The monsters were moving very fast. After a while, everyone could hear the monsters running and roaring.

When Ferry's subordinates shot the first arrow, it announced the official start of the battle.

Several adventurers holding giant shields formed a steel wall in the front to block the monsters' advance.

Several other adventurers holding close-range weapons killed the approaching monsters nearby, and there were other archers behind them to provide fire cover.

The monster group was temporarily blocked, and monsters kept falling in front.

Although the number of monsters was large, they were not very intelligent.

Ferry's adventure group dealt with it with ease, as if they had seen such scenes many times.

Although Herag was in the center of the camp, it was not easy.

Because a flying monster flew over the front defense line and came directly above the camp.

A bat-like monster had just come to the top of the camp and was about to spit something at the people below, when a piece of wood as thick as an arm pierced its head.

The monster fell down, and several arrows were shot at the place where it was originally flying.

When everyone looked down, they knew that the wood was thrown by Herag, and they couldn't help but marvel at Herag's strength.

Being able to pierce the monster directly with a piece of wood from such a distance, the strength required is not something that ordinary people can do.

Herag took a longbow from someone else, bent the bow and put an arrow on it, pulled the longbow into a full moon, and arrows flew out one by one.

Several flying monsters were hit by arrows before they approached the camp.

Such arrows could not kill them directly, but because Herag shot at a very tricky position, their speed would be greatly reduced.

Once the speed slowed down, they were greeted by countless arrows and were shot directly into hedgehogs.

After a while, most of the flying monsters in the air were solved.

Herag stood in place, looking down at the ground.

He suddenly turned his head to look at a young woman hiding behind the carriage, and suddenly ran over to hug the young woman in his arms.

"Ah... I..." The young woman didn't understand, but didn't struggle. Instead, she approached Herag's chest and rubbed it with a certain part.

Herag knew that she had misunderstood, but there was no time to explain.

The next moment, a thick tentacle broke out of the ground, with a huge hook at the end of the tentacle.

The hook was very sharp and could easily break through human flesh.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this scene and retreated away from that place.

When the young woman saw this scene, her legs went limp and she fell on Herag, her whole body was so scared that she had no strength.

She couldn't imagine what would happen if Herag didn't take her away. (End of this chapter)
