Chapter 396 is another muddy body
Wasn't that the survivor covered in mud to escape, and there was an explanation for his ability to move more than the elves in the fog.
So Qin Wei asked Mister that question, he wanted to know that these front-line personnel who often came into contact with vampires should have more say.
"Yes! My people and I often hide in the trees and ambush it, but that guy always seems to know where we're hiding, and it will attack the lone one of us, and then run away before we can surround it!
"Hmm~" Qin Wei thought thoughtfully, "Then have you tried other hidden methods?"
The elves had of course used other methods, using wind magic to hide their aura, but to no avail, as vampires were also proficient in this way.
The rangers were able to close the area by building a long blockade and outnumbering the vampire to keep the vampire from going deeper into the woodland, but the guerrilla tactics were too much for them to deal with.
In the long run, the number of walking corpses under the vampire will only increase, and the elves' northern defenses will become vulnerable.
So when Qin Wei proposed that they have a passionate mud bath, although Mist resisted, out of respect for the queen's trust in Qin Ling, she still nodded and agreed, but at first only she and Qin Wei were the only two people to do this practice.
In order to show that he was not joking, Qin Wei took the initiative to jump into the mud pit that was dug and rolled, and even touched the mud on his face, which made the surrounding elves unbearable to look at directly.
They have no mercy in dealing with their enemies, but they have never seen such a cruel creature against themselves.
"Ah~ It's really a little cold!" Qin Wei felt that even his bones were trembling, but what he pursued was this effect, and the long-term experience outside made him feel free to get out of the weak and windy physical state, and he could still bear this difficulty.
"Do I have to do that, too? You don't mean to lower your body temperature, but why don't I wrap myself in water?"
Mister, a strong female warrior, had never soiled herself, but it was the first time she had taken the initiative to jump into a mud puddle, so she seemed a little hesitant when it came to the end.
"No, didn't you say that vampires can detect magic, isn't that more obvious!?"
"Okay, okay~"
In order not to show his cowardice in front of his subordinates, Mister walked into the mud pit with a resolute heart, but unlike Qin Wei's random rolling, this female elf's movements were much more elegant, smearing mud on her slender and toned body one by one, and the picture looked full of wild temptation.1
But Qin Wei didn't appreciate this, he was still a little impatient, and directly picked up the big puddle of muddy water with both hands and pasted it on the other party.
"Don't delay! this thing won't work after a long time!"
"Hmm~ even your face?"
"Of course!"
"Ears?"
"That's right! All body, like me! Even the eyelids must be smeared!"
"Is there no other way?"
"No! That's the easiest way to do it, or you'll have to set fire to the woods! But you've already vetoed it, okay! The nobles won't allow deliberate fire to the Misty Forest, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's the only way to go~"
Mister resigned himself to smearing mud on his face, and the rangers had a rare glimpse of their captain's subduedness, but they were not at all happy, because if this method succeeded, they would follow suit, so their hearts were filled with great sympathy for Mister, and they were entangled in whether the mud bath was effective or not.
When the two clay figures came out with heavy steps, Qin Wei even wrapped some extra mud in a cloth bag for backup, and even prepared two water bags to water his body at any time to keep these camouflages cool.
After all this was ready, the group finally began to enter the locked woodland.
How do I remember that I had only recently gotten rid of this scruffy image, and how did I become like this again?
Qin Wei walked through the woodland with one foot and one foot shallow, and couldn't help but have such doubts in his heart.
And he was relieved when he saw Mister in front of him, who was leading the way in the same muddy costume as him.
I was able to pull an originally arrogant female elf warrior into the water, I really admire myself~1
In order to take care of Qin Lao, a "slow-responding" human, the fog in this woodland was slightly diluted by the elves, and the visibility became about 50 meters, which made his vision much wider.
But even so, the whole woodland is gloomy, and vampires are able to move around in it.
So when the team moves along the same location that they have been ambushed before, the inevitable encounter arises.
First, a pile of walking corpses blocked the way, including former teammates of the rangers, humans who might have strayed into the forest and killed them, and even some wild beasts.
However, the rangers are much more agile, and it is difficult for the walking corpses to attack them, and their only advantage is that as long as the summoner is alive, they are immortal, and even if the head and body are separated, their indiscriminate waving arms are still a threat, not to mention that some of the guys still carry the same dirty weapons in their hands, and a scratch is enough to cause illness.
So the only way for the rangers to deal with them is to hold them all in place, shoot them through their thighs with arrows, cut off all their limbs and bury them, as long as they can't follow them, and then they have the energy to chase down the caster and solve the problem at the root.
In fact, if it weren't for the elves who resisted the fire magic, burning the corpses clean was the best solution, Qin Wei had seen many times in the historical battle records of the mother continent that people had to use large-scale cremation pits to retreat the flooded walking corpses.
Fortunately, the number of these walking corpses is not large enough to pose a threat to the rangers' team.
Because the two who are behind are the most vulnerable targets to vampires, if it can be noticed.
And soon, they had a chance to verify.
When the last walking corpse was slashed off by the ranger's knife, a puff of sand and dust struck through the fog, instantly sweeping the ranger at the head of the team into the air and disappearing in front of everyone's eyes.
