After hearing the bad news from Elena's mouth, Snow frowned. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Because of the frequent appearance of wild beasts these days, Elena controlled the panther to go around the mountains and forests. It was found that the number of small beasts on the outskirts of the forest was increasing dramatically, and these small beasts occupied one side of the other, apparently for the town of Ruk.

The world of beasts and the world of humans have a lot in common, and the endless mountains and forests are like a big society. Large beasts tend to haunt the depths of the mountains and forests, while small beasts rarely dare to disperse into the territory of large beasts. And some beasts have found that there is a lot of food in the town of Ruke, that is, the inhabitants of the town. The message was soon passed on, and more companions were recruited to prepare to attack the town in order to stock up on food for the winter.

And what Snow had feared before also happened. A large number of small beasts attracted many large beasts such as black panthers and man-bears. There were two or three hundred small beasts found by Elena alone, and nearly ten large beasts. Among them are two adult human bears, a wild wolf king, and a lion pack consisting of five female mountain lions and a male mountain lion. If these beasts attack the town together, it will be doomed.

Fortunately, now they are taboo against each other, and neither of them has taken the lead in taking action. However, this is also temporary, as if a beast attacks the town, it will become a fuse. When the time comes, these beasts will most likely use the town as a common hunting target.

"With less than a month to go until the beginning of winter, these beasts are running out of patience according to my observations." Elena said worriedly, "I can explain in advance that with these four beasts under my control, it won't make much use at all. If we want to fend off the beasts, we have to make some other preparations. ”

Elena's casual 'we' has shown a change in her mindset. After spending some time with the townspeople, Elena has come to see herself as a member of Rook Town. Snow was very happy about this, but he couldn't think of any other way to fend off the beast for the time being.

Fishing with nets, reinforcing walls, deepening traps, crafting bows and arrows, and improving the quality of weapons, including enlisting Elena's help, he used everything he could. It's a miracle that we've been able to do this in a short period of time. Snow was sure that this meant that he had advanced conceptual knowledge, and that anyone else, let alone fending off the beasts, had starved to death a few days earlier.

"If you give me some more time, there are some options. But now......" Snow shook his head slightly, time is the worst enemy. If he still has a month, he can go to Kalka City, exchange gold and iron for gold coins, and then spend a lot of money and ask mercenaries to help.

Those mercenaries are all people who ask for money and don't want to die, and although their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of knights, they are much stronger than the residents of Ruk Town. Although a small number of mercenaries will only become food for the beasts, it will not play a big role. But quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and as long as you have money, you can call in hundreds or thousands of mercenaries. But it takes time to go to Kalka City to sell gold and iron stones, and then bring in a large number of mercenaries.

"So what do we do?" Yalian is also helpless.

"If it really doesn't work, then you just have to let Yalian set fire to the forest." Elena thought for a moment, raised her head and said fiercely, "Other fires may not work, but Yalian's black flame is very powerful and difficult to extinguish, so it should be okay." ”

"Nope." Snow immediately refused, although the endless mountains and forests were now a source of threat to them, the mountains and forests were also a place full of treasure and wealth. There are not only trees and herbs, but also minerals such as iron and copper. Snow is still counting on relying on the mountains and forests to make a fortune. It would be a shame if it burned down.

Besides, the area of the Endless Mountain Forest is too large, and no one knows what the negative impact of such a fire will be.

"You think I want to." Elena said dissatisfiedly that her magic was dealing with wild beasts, and if all the beasts were dead, then her magic would only be able to control the useless animals such as mules, horses, chickens, ducks, and geese in the castle. Therefore, proposing the method of burning mountains and forests is the most difficult for Elena.

"There must be another way, you let me think about it." Snow frowned and said, after thinking for a long time, there is only one most effective way, and that is a trap.

But it would take too much time to deepen all the traps around the town to a certain extent. After all, the perimeter of the town is still very long, and if you want to play the best defense, you must deepen and widen it indiscriminately, because no one knows that these damn beasts will attack the town from which direction.

"Wait." Snow muttered in his heart, and a flash of inspiration flashed, and the sentence he had just thought of echoed in his mind.

"Hahahaha, I'm so stupid." Snow slapped the table and stood up, his eyes shining brightly and laughing.

This move frightened Yalian on the side, and Elena even pulled out the dagger that Snow gave her, looked at Snow vigilantly, and protected Yalian behind her and said: "I said why is this kid not afraid of wizards, it turns out that he is a psychotic." ”

"You're the one who is the psychopath." Snow almost choked himself to death when he heard Elena's words.

"What are you laughing at if you're not sick?" Elena asked.

"I'm laughing because I've figured out a way to fend off the beast." Snow sat down again and rolled his eyes at Elena, "Don't make a fuss, quickly put the dagger away, let's get down to business." ”

Elena put away the dagger, walked opposite Snow with Yalian, and asked curiously, "What method have you come up with?" “

"Actually, the solution is very simple, we just need to find a few fixed points around the town and dig a few big traps, and then we can solve the problem." Snow said.

"Digging traps at fixed points? You think those beasts are fools, and if a big trap is stepped on by a beast, the whole trap will be exposed. When those beasts saw their companions fall into the trap, would they take the initiative to jump into the trap again? Elena glanced at Snow with an idiot's eyes.

"Who said a trap could only catch one beast at a time?" Snow looked at Elena and smiled, "What would happen if you knew the location of the trap and then controlled dozens of beasts to rush towards the seemingly non-dangerous trap at the same time?" ”

As soon as they heard Snow's words, Elena and Araine understood. In fact, this principle is very simple, just a layer of window paper. For example, Snow and the others dug a large trap first, and then Jarren controlled the beasts to attack the town from the path where the trap was hidden. Because attacking the town is in line with the habits and wishes of the beasts, the mana required for Elena to control them will be much smaller, which means that Elena can control dozens of small beasts at the same time.

As long as she let the beast rush in the direction of the trap, the beast behind her found the trap in time, and under the rapid running, she couldn't stop if she wanted to. In this way, dozens of beasts can be solved at once, which is more effective than any other method.

"This should work, Snow, you're really smart." Yarlian said adoringly.

Looking at Snow with a smug face, Elena turned her head in disdain.

"This kid's head is really easy to use, such a simple way, why didn't I think of it." Elena muttered in her heart, although she didn't want to admit it, but she had to say that Snow did have something extraordinary.
