Chapter 15: The Hunting Party
Xiao Shi is 11 years old, but he has been hunting for three years, and he is looking around nervously with a bone knife in his hand. In the hunting team in the www.biquge.info village, there were four children of the same grade as him, and they were all protected in the middle of the team at the moment. Uncle Ganba looked extra nervous today, Xiao Shi had never seen Uncle Ganba so nervous. Uncle Ganba is the first warrior in the stockade, and being able to follow Uncle Ganba out to hunt is Xiaoshi's proudest thing. His dream was to become a warrior like Uncle Ganba in the future, defending his clan and the village. Later, he finally got his wish and witnessed Uncle Ganba's heroic deeds one after another.
There were 26 people in the hunting party, but just a quarter of an hour ago, without warning, two of them were good hunters, and even Little Stone knew that they were in extreme danger. In the three years that Xiaoshi has participated in the hunting team, although he has been cautious every time, he has never seen any movement in the hunting team's search process, but he has lost two team members.
Xiaoshi is not afraid of death, as a warrior in the stockade, the hunting team is the patron saint of the stockade and the pride of the stockade. Although he was only 11 years old, he had already seen the death of many sub-clansmen, Uncle Gongle next door, and the little knife that he played with until the big one, all of them were small stones watching them die in front of him. For food, or to defend the village, the people sometimes had to trade their blood for the things they cherished most.
However, even so, today's atmosphere makes Xiaoshi extremely depressing. They still don't know what attacked them, and the two who lost their traces were the people in charge of the sentinel investigation, but they were nowhere to be found.
Fear that is not seen is the real fear.
However, with Uncle Ganba leading the group, Xiaoshi believes that they will be able to escape.
I saw Uncle Gan Ba wave his hand gently, and Uncle Ganqi and the big brother of the crossbow quietly probed to the left, and the whole team slowly followed behind them, and everyone was on guard. Any wind and grass around them are heard in their ears, and they are like a bow with a full string, ready to attack with all their might.
The team slowly walked through twenty steps, and Uncle Ganqi turned around and shook his head at Uncle Ganba.
A cold light flashed in Uncle Ganba's eyes, this fierce beast was cunning and powerful, and Uncle Ganba knew in his heart that he might have encountered a high-level fierce beast today. In the past few years, although the hunting team has rarely come in this area, it is not that they have not been here, this is close to the depths, but they have not seen desolate beasts above level 3 in the past, but Gan Ba knows that they must have encountered desolate beasts above level 3 today. Ganba waved his hand again, motioning for Ganqi and the others to continue their exploration, and the team slowly moved again.
Ganba must lead the team to avoid this dilemma as soon as possible, that is, to find favorable terrain, Ganqi they are now exploring there is a more favorable hill, only by occupying the hill, the team can rely on the terrain to fight against the wild beasts, and also avoid the dilemma of being attacked everywhere.
Suddenly, a green shadow came from the sky towards the team, right above the small rock. Little Stone screamed in fright. Guarding the small stone in front of the little stone was the village uncle with an axe. Uncle Axe had a big iron axe in his hand, and when he saw the beast attacking, he shouted and slashed it down. The spears in the ranks also stabbed.
"It's a winged python!"
When everyone saw the face of the beast that attacked them, they were all surprised. The Wing Python, an extremely ferocious beast, has a pair of fan-like wings around its neck, allowing it to glide a little short distance. However, this is not a second- or third-level desolate beast, it is classified as a fourth-level desolate beast that is infinitely close to the fifth-level desolate beast. Fortunately, it doesn't have venom, but it's already a beast through and through.
The Wing Python's sneak attack was blocked by the attack of Uncle Axe and the spear. Uncle Axe was born with infinite strength, a little bigger than Uncle Ganba, and one of his axes could be split in half if it were an ordinary beast.
"Gather your formation and evacuate quickly." Ganba made a judgment as quickly as he could. They must first go up the hill, otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable.
The speed of the team's movement suddenly exploded, and the winged python hissed in pain from the attack and turned away, just revealing its position, and this was the best opportunity for the team to evacuate.
In an instant, the team advanced dozens of meters, however, the winged python that had been exposed was no longer hiding at this time, and when it saw the team fleeing, it quickly chased after it, and all the grass and trees in front of it swept by the nearly five-meter-thick body were broken. It didn't take a few breaths before it caught up with the hunting party, raised its head sharply, and bit down on one of them.
The hunting team saw the winged python chasing after it again, and at the same time stopped to attack in a defensive formation. It's just that the wing python turned to bite and shook it, sweeping its head on the front team member. "Wow", the person who was swept was directly knocked out, although the wing python was also attacked at the same time, but it seemed that its scale armor was tough enough and did not suffer much damage, but it still made the wing python retract its head in pain.
Wiccan warriors are naturally strong and strong, and there are often people who are born with great strength. But the power of the winged python is still not something they can resist. With just one blow, one person was knocked away and two were injured.
"Gather and move on." Ganba's order was shouted in time.
The team did not stop, quickly gathered to fill the vacant space, and moved forward. This is the experience that the hunters of the stockade have summed up countless times between life and death over the years, and in the face of such a powerful beast, it is the most rational choice for them to give up the team members who were beaten away. The speed of the procession had increased, and there was now only one thought in their minds, and that was the order of the leader of Ganba. Because they know that the little time that the team's lives have bought for them cannot be wasted.
After the team left, the wing python did not attack immediately, but ate the team member who was already seriously injured. Then pursue again.
At this time, the hunting party had already evacuated hundreds of meters, but their hearts were even heavier. The speed of the two injured players is getting slower and slower at the moment, and their physical strength is slowly unable to keep up.
One of them suddenly shouted at Ganba, "Brother Ganba, let me block the winged python here, maybe I can buy you a little more time." ”
"Yes, let me stay too." Another injured team member shouted as well.
Ganba's tough and angular face was full of determination, and he shouted at the two of them: "Don't talk nonsense, I said it, evacuate!" ”
The others looked at everything in front of them, silent, just vigilantly hurrying forward. They knew in their hearts that if they were to replace any of them, they would do the same, including the big brother Ganba himself whom they respected.
The team moved forward silently and quickly. At last, they saw the hill from afar. However, there was a wind-like "whooshing" sound from behind, and the wing python chased after it again. This time, Uncle Axe was in charge of the position of the broken back, followed by Ganba. In an instant, the wing python had already chased closer, but this time, it did not attack directly, but went around to the side.
"Go ahead to the right, don't let it stand in the way." The team's years of tacit understanding have enabled Ganba's orders to be implemented as quickly as possible. The team immediately moved to the front right, keeping the distance between them and preventing it from getting in the way.
However, the speed of the wing python is too fast, and it is not a way to go on like this.
Ganba drew the bone arrow he was carrying behind his back, took off his bow, and fired a quick arrow as he ran. This bone arrow is made of the teeth of an antbeast, and it is extremely sharp. The bone arrow flew out and took the winged python in the eye.
But the winged python was really a high-level desolate beast, and it actually found the bone arrow in time, and turned its head to let go of its eyes, but the bone arrow pierced its scale armor and pierced his jaw.
This arrow, the wing python was really stabbed, and under the pain, the front body was directly stretched, and the body five or six feet long rolled up, sweeping straight towards the hunting team.
Everyone hurriedly dodged, but still did not dodge, and the entire team was knocked out and scattered.
Uncle Axe slashed with all his strength, and the axe was swept backwards and flew out more than ten meters. The spear in Ganba's hand had also been broken, and it was shocked and flew out.
However, the winged python was not happy, and the team's full force hit its body solidly, leaving several obvious wounds, and blood kept flowing out.
The hunting team was also very injured, Uncle Axe was the most seriously injured, he struggled to get up, and four members of the team couldn't get up for a while. Among them were the two injured players from the previous one, who rushed forward at the last minute to block the blow.
