Chapter 3: Flame Dance (9)
"Report, report... Our meat balls have been attacked by the enemy ... As Cavlyn was about to sit down in her chair and rest, a panicked apostle soldier immediately reported to her that it was not a good news.
Kevlin, it was supposed to be one of the soldiers she had sent out to help command one of the meatballs. It's just that now his other three companions and meat balls are no longer cut, leaving him to come back by himself. Well, I didn't expect the loss to come so quickly. "Tell me, tell me the details. ”
Obviously, this apostle soldier was still a little frightened, and there was actually a wound left on his body by sharp claws, this wound still looked quite bloody, could it be that there was really some predator in it?" "My lord, we went deep into the flesh ball of the forest and found the attack of the fierce beast! In less than a moment, five meat balls were killed! Nineteen soldiers had already been killed besides me! I was lucky enough to be pushed off the shoulder of the meat ball by the beast and hung on a nearby tree, so I survived!" ”
"Beasts?" Cavlyn thought it was very interesting, what kind of beast could kill several meat balls in a row in such a short time? Although the meat balls were useless, and it was not a pity to die, at least because of their size, it was still difficult for ordinary creatures to kill a meat ball. If it weren't for their slow speed and basic brainlessness, the Lord of the Lost wouldn't have let them be relegated to the waste column. "Tell me, what do these beasts look like, why are they so powerful?"
"These?" the apostle soldier was about to fall to his stomach. "My lord, a fierce beast is so terrifying, how can there be these? That fierce beast doesn't look too big, but it is very fast, and it has a very strong climbing ability, and it can easily climb from the ground to the shoulders of the meat balls!
This soldier is okay. The first thing Kevlin paid attention to was not what the apostolic soldier was reflecting, but the apostolic soldier himself. If what this apostle soldier said was true, then he had only walked through the Ghost Gate not long ago, and he should have been full of trepidation in his heart at the moment. But for the question he asked, the soldier was able to tell Kevlin everything in a simple and clear way. And if it was another apostle, although it would not be stupid, it would definitely not be as clear as this apostle soldier, and it would not be like him, although he was nervous and afraid, he still maintained full sanity. This made Cadlyn want to reuse the soldier. "What else do you know?"
The apostle soldier's mood had now gradually subsided, perhaps because he was now temporarily safe, he carefully recalled what happened not long ago, and added: "It has sharp teeth and claws, and its body looks very slender, but the muscles all over its body are probably very developed, otherwise, it would not have such a terrible explosive power! Our companions were not prepared at all, and they all died! If it weren't for my luck, I might not have been able to report to the adults!"
Well, it looks like this beast is really a little scary. By now, Kevlin finally believed what Ronalazel had said before, that there really was something terrible in this forest. If that's the case, then the meatballs and the apostolic soldiers who go deep into the forest will be safe. According to this apostolic apostolic soldier, several flesh balls were killed in just an instant. However, with the movement speed of those meat balls, even if they wanted to retreat, it was too late. It probably won't be long before these meat balls are wiped out.
Kevlin shook her head secretly, she didn't expect these balls to look so useless. The other party was just a fierce beast, and he had already caused such a lot of casualties, and he didn't even know if this beast belonged to the human army, or if it was really the owner of this forest? But one way or another, it's time to rearrange a new tactic.
Kevlin didn't care about the complete failure of this tactic. And the purpose of this tactic has been accomplished. As long as you can be sure that there is indeed a powerful beast in this forest, it is enough. At the same time, it was also judged that there was no human army in ambush in this forest except for this fierce beast. In this case, the role of these meat balls is basically equal to zero.
"What's your name?"
"What?" Obviously, the Apostolic Soldier didn't expect Kevlin to ask his name, so he panicked for a moment. How could a high-ranking apostle take the initiative to call himself by name?
"I'm asking, what's your name. ”
Only then did the apostle soldier react and replied in a panic: "My lord, my name is Dondona, and I am a thrower. ”
"Well, Dondona. Kevlin nodded and said, "Well, from now on, you are no longer a thrower, but a low-ranking apostle. You go down and get some rest now, those meat balls, don't want them. ”
Dondona didn't expect that he would not die at all, but Houfu came. This is simply a surprise! Originally, with Dondona's rank, it was basically impossible to become an apostolic nobleman. An apostle like him who is not of pure blood, plus he is not good at killing enemies head-on and making war exploits, so the fate of this life is probably to be killed by the army of the human world. But he didn't think that if it hadn't been for the tree that hung up on him to keep him from falling to his death, he wouldn't have had the life to return to Kevlin's side and report to her what he had witnessed. Even if it was just a low-level apostle, it was enough for Dondona. After all, it is also the rank of the apostle nobles, you must know that if you want to become an apostle noble, it is basically impossible for those apostles who are not pure-blooded. It's just that Dondona never thought that the reason why he could become a nobleman in the middle of the attempt was only because he was able to keep his composure when reporting these things to Cavlin, and nothing else. It's just that for the meat ball and his colleagues who are still in that forest, Dondona can only be helpless.
Immediately afterward, Kevlin prepared for a new round of operations. Although there are three mid-level apostles under her command, so far there is only one Ronalazel who can actually believe in Onkeflin. But even this Ronalazel can't reassure Cavlin in many ways. But now that the first attack had largely failed, Cavlin's thoughts were taking place, several more desperate screams of the apostle soldiers before they died could be heard in the forest.
"My lord, do you want to disperse all the troops and go deep into this forest?" one of the middle-level apostles hesitated for a long time before he said cautiously: "My lord, since there is only one fierce beast in the forest, and there is no army of those little reptiles of humans, it is better to do so." ”
"Why don't you spread it all out?" Kevlin thought for a moment and said, "Isn't what you said completely unreasonable. However, our reconnaissance is too weak to know what is going on in the forest. If there is an ambush inside, it will be a bit difficult to deal with. ”
"My lord, even if there is some human ambush in there, how can it be the opponent of our warriors?" the mid-rank apostle struck while the iron was hot, and continued: "We just need to take a step by step, let all the troops line up in an orderly manner, and then use 'them', so that even if there is any ambush, it is not our opponent at all. ”
Kevlin frowned, "You mean, use 'them'? But did you know that under my hands, there are only about two hundred 'them'. Not enough to form a cluster attack. ”
"My lord, there is actually a sentence that I have wanted to say for a long time!" said the mid-ranking apostle, who did not know where to find the courage, "Actually, from the very beginning, I was not in favor of sending any scouts to investigate the situation. We, the Apostles, have never done any reconnaissance, but we haven't swept the whole world yet, and we have taken up most of this human world? Also, although the number of 'them' is only about two hundred, which is not enough to form a scale, these human beings are only more than a thousand according to what we have learned before!"
Kevlin gave the mid-level apostle a deep look, and finally nodded, "What you said makes sense. In that case, then, it is up to you to lead the two thousand apostles into the forest. Remember, you must kill that beast. After a pause, Kevlin added, "Bring 'them' with you." I want to see if these puppies transformed by the bereaved master are really powerful. ”
The mid-rank apostle could not hide the joy on his face, and hurriedly ran to the back of the army. And at the end of the entire apostolic army, a huge wooden fence was improvised erected. The fence is actually very weak, but it is quite tall, about 10 meters, and covers an area of about several hundred square meters. And inside this fence, there are about two hundred fierce beasts.
These beasts look like animals called dogs in the human world. But unlike dogs, these creatures are not covered with any fur and are all naked. Moreover, these animals are a dark and shiny color, and the dog's eyes reveal an innocent expression. It's pretty cute. But these apostles knew that these beasts were not as harmless as they seemed on the surface, but a real beast that ate meat without blinking. And the apostles also called these beasts rabid dogs, because they lived up to their name.
The size of these rabid dogs is not very large, probably the size of the tiger king with three rabid dogs combined. But due to their ferocious nature, and the fact that they become extraordinarily murderous when they smell blood, they dare to rush forward without fear even if the target is an animal that is several times larger than them. And once their numbers are massed, they can even deal with a full ten times as many targets. But these rabid dogs have a fatal weakness, that is, once they are contained in an enclosed area, then they will completely stop, even if it is only a wooden fence that surrounds them, but they will not resist at all. Even if an apostle killed a rabid dog in the fence, the other rabid dogs would not care. No matter how big the smell of blood is, it won't attract them.
But fortunately, once these rabid dogs recognize their owners, they will not disobey their master's orders and kill them casually. The apostolic soldiers will also be relieved to use them boldly and casually. And the reason for the fence was simply not to let them run around. The mid-level apostle came to the edge of the fence, ordered the apostle soldiers to open the fence, and smiled confidently as he watched the rabid dogs with drooping heads suddenly become bloodthirsty after the gate of the fence was opened. With them, how can you not complete the task yourself?
"You, let these rabid dogs line me up neatly!, and look like a soldier!" the mid-rank apostle said to one of the beast whisperers. There was no way for the mid-level apostles to give orders to these rabid dogs. Because the only person who can really command these rabid dogs is actually a professional beast whisperer. Generally speaking, it is impossible for an army of apostles of a thousand people to have rabid dogs, and the beast whisperers certainly do not exist. It's just that this time, the apostles temporarily expanded the three thousand apostles into a team of three thousand apostles, and only then did they temporarily deploy two hundred rabid dogs and ten beast whisperers. Although these two hundred rabid dogs could only be commanded by the beast whisperers, the apostles were not at all worried that the beast whisperers would rebel because of these rabid dogs. Because the beast whisperers trained by the mourning lord are, first, absolutely loyal to the apostles and the mourning lord himself, and secondly, all the beast whisperers are family people, and they are firmly controlled by the mourning master. The mourners understand, and so do these beast whisperers.
After receiving the order, the beast whisperer immediately drove the two hundred rabid dogs to the side of the snow together with the other beast whisperers. The terrible thing is that even in this snowy place, these rabid dogs, which are not covered with fur, do not feel the cold at all. It's really horrible.
