078. Unexpected Encounter
Early in the morning, after the soldiers had packed all the materials, Alan led the team out of the hillside where the goblin tribe was located, guided by Hruff, the guide.
According to Khruf's introduction, although the location of the goblin tribe is not a dividing line, the forest they are stepping into now is already within the scope of the endless forest sea, and Olya also affirmed his words on the side.
As for Allen's question about how this boundary was determined, the gnoll leader and the elven princess gave him a very fantastical answer, feeling.
This was definitely an extremely perfunctory answer, but at that time, the expressions of both of them were extremely serious, and Alan didn't know what to say.
Luckily, from the very beginning he had Hermet mark all the way and map the places they passed, so that there was no need for a guide or a sense of feeling when they came back to the place.
It turned out that Khruf and Olya were right, since they said that they had entered the range of the Endless Forest Sea, the number of demonic beasts encountered had also increased suddenly, and it also made Alan understand where so many demonic beasts in the goblin tribe were.
In the evening, after encamping in a clearing leaning against a hill, Hermit led the men to prepare the evening's meal, while Alan found a flat stone platform to teach Dinah to draw the white Great Power Rune.
After a lot of drawing skills that Eren had cultivated before, as well as the training of the long walks in the forest these days, he now basically didn't need any specific environment to make runes.
As long as the ground is flat enough not to affect the direction of the mana blood on the skin, he can basically draw runes.
Dinah's foundation is also good enough, and after following Alan to draw the basic magic array in the runes a few times in a difficult environment, the progress is also rapid.
"You've got enough of it now, and I think you can start trying to draw the rest of the Great Power Rune. ”
Alan looked at the magic array on the animal skin in his hand and nodded silently, and Dinah, who was praised, was also full of joy.
"But the control ability is still a little worse, you can draw white runes, but green runes may be much worse. Overall, it's already very good, much faster than me. ”
Although Eren was mainly limited by magical materials at the beginning, he saw Dinah's talent.
At this moment, the camp patrol suddenly let out a shrill alarm, and all the resting soldiers took up their arms and entered the battle mode.
A moment later a familiar roar rang out from outside the camp, and a half-elf patrol hurried over to report, guilt written on his face.
It was a half-elf in charge of reconnaissance who spotted another team of gnolls and moved in a moment of excitement.
After calming down, the half-elf immediately realized his mistake, and the reconnaissance team with only three soldiers was naturally no match for the team of hundreds of jackals, so they could only scatter and flee.
At this time, Hruff, who was doing a big deal with the female jackal not far from the camp, happened to run into the gnolls who were chasing the half-elves, and it just so happened that this tribe also happened to be the culprit who had hit the Wild Claw tribe hard.
After the enemy met, he was naturally very red-eyed, and Hruff, who had put on his pants, turned around and roared and summoned his gnolls, and rushed straight into the enemy's ranks.
The Patrol spotted the enemy and immediately joined the fight, and Olya happened to be among them.
Alan was also angry in his heart after hearing this, he didn't expect these guys to be so impulsive, but now it is not a question of who is responsible, and immediately asked Cobb to rush out with twenty rune knights to protect Olya and these archers.
And Locke and his soldiers surrounded him from both wings, and since these gnolls are here, don't think about leaving easily.
The two mages, Alan and Dinah, followed after Cobb and rushed to the place of battle, and when he saw the team of gnolls on the opposite side, he immediately understood why the half-elves in charge of the reconnaissance were out of control.
In the team of the jackals, there were dozens of female elves who were firmly bound with vines, their bodies were unclothed, and their skin that should have been smooth and smooth was covered with blood.
Obviously, these elves are all slaves of this gnolloh.
The bullets used by the Gnolls are not as common to humans as they are, so they will not be able to create a new race when they combine with the elves, but this does not prevent them from ravaging the elves.
Compared to most humans' pity, the methods of the gnolls are much more bloody and cruel, and in a slightly better case, they may cut a few cuts in the elve's body during the rush to the peak.
What's even more brutal is that at the peak, he will directly tear the elf's throat and let the blood spray in his mouth.
And that's not the end of it, the elves' corpses will be thrown into the pot by the gnolls and boiled for a meal.
Of course, because of the fact that their strength does not allow it, the vast majority of gnolls do not have the opportunity to taste the taste of elves, like the Wild Claw tribe of Herut, otherwise Olya would not be so at peace with him.
Alan saw the bound elves in the enemy ranks, and turned his head to look at the expression of Olya standing on a high place.
Resentful, with a little urgency, the arrows in his hand shot out one after another, without stopping at all.
There must have been someone she knew with the dozen or so bound elves.
Khruf is also unusually manic now, Chiguo is crazy to slash with a fine iron axe on his upper body, and every time the axe flies, it brings up pieces of blood mist, and he has no mercy on his kind.
In the face of such a battle, Eren no longer controls the magic power, and directly turns on the explosive ability of the green rune, and the magic power on his body instantly begins to go berserk!
Alan now holds the goblin shaman's scepter in his hand, and although the gem on it is shattered, it can still increase the casting speed by a certain amount, and in a matter of seconds, four fireballs flew into the enemy team like cannons!
Because he wanted to avoid the elves in the gnoll crowd, Allen's fireball was a little scattered, and it was an arc in the air and smashed into the enemy's pile, so some agile gnolls dodged in advance.
But even so, more than a dozen gnolls were injured by the fireballs, and some of them directly turned into burning men and rushed around, causing panic in the enemy team.
They had heard of magic, but they had seen very little, and fear was inevitable.
And the Wild Claw tribe led by Khruf immediately became excited after seeing the fireball, they knew that it was Allen's magic, and their morale instantly soared!
The previous battles when the boss led them to charge were all for someone else's battle, and they felt somewhat forced, so even if Eren released his magic, it didn't feel much for them.
This time, the gnolls of the Wildclaw tribe were fighting for themselves, and when they saw the fireball falling into the enemy's ranks, they roared excitedly as if they had found a support in an instant, and rushed towards the enemy.
If there are outsiders who are familiar with the characteristics of the race at this moment, they must be very surprised to see this scene, and the jackals still have such a brave side.
The enemy was also a little surprised as his kind, but they didn't have time to sustain the mood, because Locke had already copied it from two loaves with his soldiers!
As they charged, the soldiers on both sides gradually began to slowly converge from the rear of the gnolls, and by the time the gnolls reacted, they were completely surrounded.
The number of these gnolls is nearly three hundred, but it is only a matter of time before they are defeated under such a siege, and now that the back road is blocked, they can't escape if they want to, so they can only choose to surrender under the blade.
Of course, in the process, there are jackals who want to hold the bound elven women hostage as bargaining chips, but they are shot to death by Olya, who has been concerned about the safety of her kind.
After repeating this a few times, naturally there were no more jackals to die.
