Chapter 12: Wolves at Night

"Yes miss, I know how to do it!" and then turned to the caravan and continued to arrange for the camp to be arranged.

Farewell to Wang Long, Chen Donglai returned to Uncle Xu's side, at this time Uncle Xu was struggling to prop up a tent, for his departure and return, Uncle Xu didn't feel strange, but simply said, "Come back!

Chen Dong didn't ask when he came to see Uncle Xu, so naturally he didn't look for words, but went directly to help Uncle Xu.

"We people, it's just that our lives are hard, it's our business to set up tents and dismantle tents, but we definitely don't have our share in living in tents!" Uncle Xu was busy with the guy in his hand again, while talking to himself.

"Aren't you used to it, why do you have to complain about this!" Hearing Uncle Xu's words, Chen Donglai was surprised.

"Yes, I've gotten used to it over the years, but are you used to it?"

"I've been in contact with these miscellaneous guys since I was sensible, what's not used to it?" Of course, this is not a real idea, but thinking of the harm that day's words hurt Uncle Xu, I can only say this.

Seeing Chen Donglai say this, Uncle Xu didn't continue to ask, but saw the black cat on Chen Donglai's shoulder and said, "It's only been a day, why did you get a cat to raise?"

"I met it on the way, and I saw that it was quite spiritual, so I took it in by the way!"

"Hey, yes, yes, the children of rich families adopt war pets like lions and tigers, it's good for you to take in a cat!" Looking at Chen Donglai's black cat, Uncle Xu said a few good words, "By the way, there is something to do tonight, the two of us are on duty, see that you haven't rested much in the past two days! You rest first in the first half of the night, and you come to guard in the second half of the night." ”

Hearing Uncle Xu's words, of course Chen Donglai couldn't ask for it, after all, he was either in a hurry or practicing in the past two days, and his spirit had been in a tense state, so it could be said that his eyes had not been closed.

In the blink of an eye, at midnight, Chen Donglai, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly woken up by Uncle Xu.

Seeing Chen Donglai wake up, Uncle Xu hurriedly made a silent gesture to him, and then lowered his voice, "The situation doesn't seem right, the black cat you brought back is also very irritable at this time, there should be some beast attack, I'm watching here, you hurry up and wake up Captain Wang and let them deal with it." ”

Hearing Uncle Xu's words, Chen Dong came to a spirit, and immediately rushed to Wang Long's tent (the tent of the caravan has two floors, the main tent in the middle, mainly Miss Wang and her maid Ping'er and the materials escorted this time, surrounded by the mercenaries this time, and the guards of the Wang family. Chen Donglai rushed directly into the tent to wake up Wang Lung and reported the current situation to him.

Before Chen Donglai could finish speaking, Wang Lung had already rushed out of the tent, woke up all the fighters, and tightly surrounded the main tent, at this time Uncle Xu had already lit the fire around the camp. These fires were prepared at the time of the camp, to prevent the attacks of the beasts at night, after all, the beasts have a natural fear of fire.

At this time, the fierce beasts around the camp saw the fire, and they no longer concealed it, and the movement became more and more obvious, and the wolf howls got closer and closer.

Hearing this wolf howl, Chen Donglai saw Wang Lung's face change drastically, even if he met the bandits the day before yesterday, he didn't see Wang Lung's face like this, which made Chen Donglai realize that the situation this time was extremely critical.

Uncle Xu, who had finished lighting the torches around the camp, had already returned to the vicinity of the camp, standing next to Chen Donglai and explaining to him that the wolf attack should be a medium-sized wolf pack, half of which is between 40-70 wolves, and the head wolf of such a wolf pack should be a wolf demon, if this wolf demon reaches more than 5 grades, this wolf demon can already threaten the entire caravan.

Besides, you can bargain when you encounter bandits, but wolves are a bunch of creatures that are not afraid of death, and as long as the first wolf is still there, they can fight you to the last wolf, which is a headache for many caravans.

But logically speaking, our luck is not so bad, after all, with the hunting of humans over the years, there are few monsters encountered on the periphery of the barren forest, and you don't have to worry, it may be just a group of ordinary wolves.

Probably worried that Chen Donglai would be frightened, Uncle Xu turned his head to comfort Chen Dong.

After saying this, Uncle Xu has retreated to the middle of the caravan, after all, this situation is no longer something that he can participate in as a small D-level inferior service mercenary, after all, for an ordinary person, even an ordinary wolf can kill you.

Chen Donglai also retreated to the middle of the convoy with Uncle Xu, after all, what he got this time was only the remuneration of a D-level inferior mercenary, and there was no need to risk the inferior treatment of the C-level. (Mercenaries are divided into four major levels: A, B, C, D, like Chen Donglai and Uncle Xu, who are the lowest level of the D class, and the mercenaries composed of warriors are at least C-level).

With the help of the torches, Chen Donglai finally saw these wild wolves, all of them were at least two meters in size, a few points larger than the tigers and leopards he had seen before.

At this time, the mercenaries on the periphery have been fighting with the wolves, I have to say, the dense forest and the night is the paradise of the beasts, compared to humans, the wolves completely occupy the home advantage, although the caravan is burning with piles of fires, but it can not affect the attack of the wolves, if human beings like to fight around the three lack of one, at this time this group of wolves just went the other way, actually only attacked the east, the other three sides did not have a wolf over.

However, this severely limited the personnel arrangement of the caravan, because in the case of poor eyesight at night, you don't know when the wolves will attack from other sides, so when focusing on resisting the attack of the eastern wolves, the caravan has to arrange limited manpower to watch in the other three directions to prevent the wolves from attacking in front and back.

At this time, the battle on the east side of the camp has become more and more tight, and many mercenaries have to face the siege of 1-3 wolves alone, and many of them have begun to wear lottery, of course, the wolves have also left more than a dozen corpses at this time. What's even more unsettling is that the head wolf never showed up.

Seeing that the battle situation in the east is getting tighter and tighter, Wang Lung has no choice but to transfer personnel from the other three sides to support, although Chen Donglai feels that it is inappropriate, but there is no way, he can't watch the people in the east being slowly consumed by the wolves!

With the arrival of the other three sides, the pressure on the east side was greatly eased for a while, and the battle changed from 1 to 2-3 wolves to 1 to 1, but Chen Donglai did not dare to relax his vigilance at this time, and he did not know enough about the combat power of the wolf pack before, but now it is finally clear that the defense of the other three sides at this time is very fragile, and a dozen or so wolves can easily break through the defense.

Wang Lung also understood the seriousness of the problem at this time, judging from the attack of the wolf pack, the feasibility of the existence of demon beasts was already very large, because if it was just a group of beasts, it was obvious that they did not have such wisdom and knew how to divert the enemy's attention.

Therefore, Chen Donglai also pulled out the short knife tied to his leg and squeezed it tightly in his hand to prevent accidents.

It was too late, and just as the battle to the east had gained the upper hand, there was a sudden howl of wolves to the west of the camp.
