"This..."

Ma Rulong scratched his head, his face was embarrassed, if this didn't count, he wouldn't mess around.

"Of course count, my Ma Rulong's words count!"

Ma Rulong took out a bag from his arms and opened the pocket, revealing the ten lower-grade spirit stones inside.

Although it was a little painful, he still gave it to Xiao Yu.

And at this moment, the gaze he looked at Xiao Yu also became respectful.

These soldiers believe in the respect of the strong.

If you want to convince them, you have to defeat them openly.

"However, he fights with us and cannot interfere in command. Ma Rulong looked at Xia Xingyu with some hesitation, but still said, "Leading troops to fight is such a thing, personal strength is still useless." ”

Xiao Yu smiled slightly, and said, "Don't worry, I don't have so much leisure." ”

Xiao Yu was amused in his heart, he had no interest in leading troops to fight.

Xia Xingyu looked at Xiao Yu, surprised in his heart, but at the same time, he was also happy, he didn't expect this guy to really have some ability.

"Commander Ma, quickly assemble the team, let's set off immediately. Xia Xingyu recovered his decisiveness, put on his helmet, and was heroic.

Xiao Yu nodded, if Mu Yingyu is heroic, then this Xia Xingyu is definitely a general.

"Yes!" Ma Rulong clenched his fists and commanded.

Soon, the whole barracks was busy.

Groups of soldiers in crimson armor lined up neatly in a phalanx.

Xiao Yu couldn't help but sigh secretly, this Xia Xingyu really has a set of rules for governing the army.

The soldiers who had been scattered all returned to their ranks, spears in their right hands and shields in their left hands, holding their heads high.

The soldiers in the phalanx exuded a murderous aura, which made Xiao Yu slightly moved.

The individual combat power of these soldiers is only about the second and third heavens of the martial artists, but the array, even the masters of the seven or eight heavens of the martial arts dare not raise their edge.

It is no wonder that in a big war, the strength of an individual often does not affect the situation of the battle.

Even if you are a martial artist, I am too numerous to consume, and I will consume you.

Unless it is a level above the martial spirit, this can fundamentally change the situation of the battle.

Xiao Yu nodded.

"Xiao Shaoxia, let's go!"

Xia Xingyu smiled and asked a junior colonel to lead a white horse for Xiao Yu to ride.

"Ironclad Battalion, let's go!" Xia Xingyu turned over, jumped on the red horse in a dashing manner, and went first.

Behind him, all the soldiers were silent, and under the leadership of their respective commanders, they set off towards the Guanwai Plain.

Xiao Yu left the camp with Xia Xingyu's hunting army, and after traveling for half a day, he finally arrived at the buffer zone on the border between Qianfeng Kingdom and Tianwu Kingdom.

It is a complex area, bordering the Northern Hellworld Valley, with rivers, mountains, and several small towns nearby.

However, in this area, it can reach the neighboring "Beast Spirit Country", where bandits are rampant and monsters are infested.

It has always been a place of right and wrong.

However, he has never heard of a group of demon beasts taking the initiative to attack human towns.

"Ahead, this is where Feng leads them. Ma Rulong said, "However, I don't understand, it's just a monster riot, with the skills and team led by Feng, how can it not be solved?"

Xia Xingyu didn't answer, looked at it intently, frowned, and said, "Strange, why is there no one patrolling the wooden village?"

Hearing Xia Xingyu's words, Ma Rulong also looked forward, his face solemn.

"Stop!"

The soldiers stopped under the command of Xia Xingyu and lined up in place, their eyes vigilant.

Xia Xingyu's face was solemn, and with a wave of his right hand, the soldiers marched forward neatly, holding a guard.

The crowd quickly walked to the barracks gate.

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows, and his heart was faintly uneasy.

Because, he smelled a strong smell of blood.

Under the leadership of Xia Xingyu, the sergeants of the ironclad battalion walked into the barracks, and when they saw the scene in front of them, their faces were ugly.

I saw that at this moment, the huge military camp was only left with broken walls and ruins, and it was a mess.

From time to time, the corpses of soldiers who were torn and bitten appeared, which was terrible.

Their faces still had the expressions they had before they died, as if they had seen something terrible, hideous and terrifying.

Xiao Yu frowned, and the suspicion in his heart became even thicker.

These are the masters of a hundred battles, what is it about them that can make them so afraid?

"Report to General Xia, Feng leads them... The whole army was annihilated. The scout who returned looked ugly and said with a sad face.

"What?" Xia Xingyu's face changed, and Ma Rulong and the others were even more shocked.

The soldiers stationed under the leadership of Commander Feng had a squad of 100 people, and the whole army was wiped out?

How many monsters are there?

Isn't it just a monster riot?

In the past, there were only fifty or sixty demon beasts dispatched at a time, not to mention, Commander Feng was a strong man of the martial artist Six Heavens!

Xia Xingyu pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid this demon beast riot is not so simple, we have to be cautious." ”

Before he could finish speaking, a low roar sounded in front of him.

Xiao Yu's ears moved, and he looked up at the front.

I saw that a room in front of me was knocked open, and a giant carrion dog with yellow and brown hair was salivating at the corners of its mouth, eating the internal organs of a soldier's corpse.

Hearing everyone's voices, the carrion dog raised his head, looked at everyone vigilantly, bared his teeth, and roared in a low voice.

"Brute!"

The horse was furious, bent its bow and arrows, the black bowstring hummed and swayed, and a black bow and arrow shot at the maned carrion like a meteor.

The arrow pierced the sky and sank into the left eye of the rotting dog like lightning.

"Whew!"

The carrion dog was in pain, and with one eye hatefully glanced at Ma Rulong and the others, turned around and ran.

"Still want to run?" Ma Rulong's eyes widened, and he quickly took out the second arrow, and was about to shoot it at the running carrion dog.

"Leave me alone!"

At this moment, Xiao Yu next to him suddenly interrupted him, and Xiao Yu rose from his horse and chased after the carrion dog.

The speed was even one point faster than Ma Rulong's arrow just now.

Xiao Yu was like a purple meteor and caught up with the carrion dog.

The carrion dog felt a rush of danger as it ran, and suddenly accelerated.

However, it only felt a chill around its waist, and its eyes showed an incredulity.

I saw that its upper body was still rushing forward, while its lower body was still lying on the ground.

Blood splattered and he fell to the ground.

"Ding! The host kills the first-level demon beast carrion dog in the Demon Xuan Realm and gains 7 transmogrification points. ”

Xiao Yu enjoyed the beautiful sound of the transfiguration value.

At this time, Ma Rulong's arrow came too late and sank into the head of the carrion dog.

"Good skills!"

A trace of surprise flashed in Xia Xingyu and Ma Rulong's eyes, and they glanced at each other, this Xiao Yu, so fast.

"This should be a lonely demon beast. ”

Xia Xingyu analyzed: "All the guard, search for survivors, and bury the soldiers' bodies on the spot. ”

All this was seen by a crow on the eaves, and then flapped its wings and flew into the dense forest in the distance.

...

After a cup of tea, more than a dozen mutilated corpses were piled up into a small mountain, and Ma Rulong threw torches on it, and the blazing fire devoured these corpses.

Looking at the skyrocketing firelight, Xia Xingyu felt sorry in his heart, but his face did not change.

As a commander-in-chief, she can't let her emotions affect the morale of the army.

She turned around and ordered, "We will use this as our base camp and set up camp on the spot to prevent the demon beasts from attacking again." ”

"This demon beast riot is definitely not an ordinary riot, otherwise, it would be impossible for Commander Feng to not even send out the alarm. ”

Xia Xingyu frowned and said, "I need a few scout teams to go to the front to investigate the information." Ma Rulong, you and a few other commanders, take your team and go to investigate first. ”

"Yes, General Xia!" Ma Rulong happily accepted the order, casually ordered a few people, and said, "Commander Zhang, Commander Huan... A few of you, take your men, and set off with me!"

"Command!"

Several people who were pointed by Ma Rulong hugged their fists and bowed their hands, and then retreated, each beckoning their subordinates to scout.

Soon, ten scout squads were ready to go.

"I also applied to investigate the traces of demon beasts!"

Xiao Yu came out and signaled.

couldn't resist Xiao Yu, Ma Rulong had no choice but to divide him and himself into a team.

"Your actions must be secretive!Your purpose is not to hunt demon beasts, but to find out the reason!" Xia Xingyu seemed to know Ma Rulong's thoughts, and admonished.

"Yes!" Ma Rulong was seen through by Xia Xingyu, his old face turned red, and he hurriedly responded.

Xiao Yu also set off with him.

"Be careful on the road!" Xia Xingyu was concerned about Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu showed a sunny smile and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you should be careful of those demon beasts!"

Xia Xingyu smiled, she admired Xiao Yu's confidence.

Zhang Chi on the side sneered: "Hmph, you actually said a big thing!"

Xiao Yu glanced at Zhang Chi, didn't explain, and turned around to follow Ma Rulong's team.

The scout team was all lightly armed, and did not ride horses to search for traces of demon beasts.

Because the demon beasts have keen senses and are extremely familiar with the smell of horses, they can only choose to give up horses.

Moreover, in this jungle terrain, it is more agile without horses.

Ten scout squads searched in different directions.

Xiao Yu and his team walked along the river to the southeast.

This chaotic area has complex terrain, and if you are not careful, you will get lost.

Ma Rulong took out the map from time to time, compared with the area in front of him, and thought about the way forward.

After a cup of tea, Xiao Yu and the others walked to a clearing.

In the clearing, there were clumps of monster feces.

"Wait a minute. ”

The deputy looked at the footprints and feces on the ground, sniffed, identified the direction, pointed ahead, and said, "Five miles to the southeast, there are ten demon beasts gathered. ”

Hearing the deputy's words, Xiao Yu was surprised and glanced at him more, this silent deputy, how still does this kind of ability?

Although he could sense the demon beast in front of him by relying on the perception of the power of his soul, this deputy could be found without relying on external force.

And to explain the number and types of demon beasts so clearly, this is not something that Xiao Yu can do now.

Seeing Xiao Yu's surprised expression, Ma Rulong knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "The deputy used to be from Orion, and he has a unique skill for tracking demon beasts. ”

Xiao Yu nodded, people can't be good-looking, they can't be underestimated.

"Let's go, be careful, don't startle the snakes, let these beasts escape, and all the work you have done will be wasted. ”

After speaking, several people walked lightly and walked towards the front.

"Ahead, it's where the monster is, everyone be careful!"

Ma Rulong said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yu looked ahead through the gap in the bushes.

I saw that in the clearing in the forest in front of me, ten demon beasts were lying on the ground neatly, as if they were resting.

It's just that what makes Xiao Yu feel strange is that this is a demon beast, and it is not the same species!

After Xiao Yu discovered the abnormality, he motioned to several other people to come around, his expression was solemn, and he said softly: "Have you noticed that these demon beasts are not serious demon beasts?"
