Volume 4 The Burning Prairie Chapter 142 The Pursuit
The small town of Ivan, the 'Rejuvenation Hall' pharmacy.
At this moment, the backyard of the pharmacy is lit up by burning torches. Whether it was the guys in the pharmacy or the counterfeit medicine merchants who had retreated from the Boulder Fort a few days ago, they were all wearing armor, holding torches in one hand and swords in the other, waiting by the teleportation array in the courtyard.
A white light suddenly lit up on the teleportation array, and as the white light rapidly expanded, and finally enveloped the entire teleportation array, Senna, Roy, and Copperbeard appeared in the teleportation array.
"Captain Senna!"
"Captain Roy!"
"Captain Brass Beard!"
The people waiting by the teleportation array were in a commotion, and they all greeted the three of them.
"Grandma's! faint me!" Copperbeard staggered out of the teleportation array, shaking his head vigorously, and he didn't wake up from his dizzy state for a long time. Roy, on the other hand, was even more unbearable, and as soon as he stepped out of the teleportation array, he immediately crouched on the ground and vomited. Only Senna's face remained the same as usual when he stepped out of the teleportation array.
Because the teleportation array built by the bones of the migrating lizard is too rudimentary, the spatial passage is very unstable during teleportation, so it has a great impact on the body of the teleporter. Of course, this effect is also relative. The stronger the person, the less affected it will be.
Senna looked around, and when he saw that all his subordinates had arrived, he said: "The orcs will definitely go out of the city to search, they can't stay here any longer, everyone should evacuate Ivan Town immediately!"
"Yes!" the crowd agreed.
"Wait, Boss, Roy's weapons and armor for me and Roy are still in the inner hall of the pharmacy, let's go get them now!" In order to smoothly infiltrate the Boulder Castle, Copperbeard and Roy did not dare to bring their armor blades into the city, but stored them in the 'Rejuvenation Hall' pharmacy. Now that they were about to evacuate from here, they hurriedly ran into the inner hall of the pharmacy to get their equipment.
......
At dawn, a squadron of wolf cavalry rushed into the town of Ivan, and the roar of more than 100 wolves instantly broke the silence of dawn and woke up the people who were still asleep.
Soon, the town's only pharmacy, the 'Rejuvenation Hall', was surrounded by wolf cavalry.
"There's the smell of that black elf, he's been here. "In the backyard of the 'Rejuvenation Hall', the sharp blade looked around the empty surroundings and said.
"There's also a teleportation array made of the bones of the migrating lizards, and it seems to be their lair. Matthew pointed to the shattered bones of the demonic beast underground.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the little ones are out of their hands, and the little ones really didn't expect that this 'Rejuvenation Hall' would be a den for those mercenary bandits. A goat-headed man with a snow-white beard on his chin wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead with his hand, and blamed himself. This sheep-headed man is Bill, the mayor of the town of Ivan, and when he learns that there is a bandit den in the town under his jurisdiction, he can't help but be shocked and worried.
"When did these aliens come to the town to open a pharmacy? They are not of my race, so you are not the slightest alert?" Doto asked loudly, his eyes wide open with brass bells.
"The guys at these apothecaries are all Terrans, and they came to town more than a month ago. In the grasslands of northern Xinjiang, there are far more human beings than our orcs, and many villages and towns have humans mixed with our orcs, and we are in Ivan Town
Almost half of the population is human. So when these people came to our town to open a pharmacy, I didn't think much about it, how would I know that they were all bandits. Bill smiled wryly.
"The Terrans on the continent have always been the number one race, and because of their large population, they have a far greater desire for land than any other race. In the past, the empire exercised restraint rule over the grassland, and the management of the grassland was not strict, and human beings continued to move into the grassland from the east. Although all the tribes of the steppe have rebelled against our orcs, it is these humans who are now the main force of resistance. Matthew said with some emotion.
"Hmph, these cowardly humans, especially the humans in the human kingdom of the Eastern Continent, have always despised us orcs by virtue of their numbers, and regard our Beamon Empire as a barbarian state. Now the chaos on the grassland, if there is no human kingdom in the Eastern Continent to interfere with it, I don't believe it. When the Emperor solves the Alpine Giants in the Northwest, I think sooner or later we will go to war with those guys in the East!" Doto said.
"Lord Doto, do we need to continue the pursuit of those mercenaries now?" asked a fierce werewolf with a goose feather in his helmet. He was the squadron leader of this squadron of wolf cavalry.
"Of course we have to chase them! Now that we have clues about these mercenaries, we can't let them escape easily!" said Doto loudly with a murderous face.
When the wolf cavalry rushed out of the town of Ivan and into the vast grassland, Senna and his party were fleeing with all their might.
Werewolves are a race that is naturally good at tracking, in order to get rid of the pursuit of the wolf cavalry, Senna and other daily mercenaries did not choose the main road to escape, but fled into the Red Rock Mountains, preparing to take a small path over the Red Rock Mountains, so as to escape back to Fort Glory.
At noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the scorching heat wave swept every inch of the Red Rock Mountains, and even the demonic beasts in the mountains were reluctant to move more, and they all lay down in their nests to escape the heat, preparing to wait for the weather to turn cool at night, and then go out to hunt for food.
But there are always exceptions!
A mountain bear did not stay in its den, but wandered around its territory. Because in proportion to its huge body is its equally large appetite, it has to run out to hunt under the scorching sun, and it does meet a group of 'prey' that pass through its territory. The Mountain Giant Bear is a sixth-level magical beast, and it already has a lot of intelligence, although the 'prey' it meets is all wearing armor and holding blades, and it doesn't look easy to mess with, but the Mountain Giant Bear's innate good appetite and strong strength still drove it to attack this team of 'prey'.
However, the unfortunate mountain bear kicked the iron plate and ended up falling prey to someone else.
More than a dozen daily mercenaries gathered around a fire, each boiling bear meat in a helmet. Since fleeing from the town of Ivan in the middle of the night, everyone has not touched a drop of rice, and they are already hungry. After encountering the mountain bear that blocked the way, the fleeing mercenaries were overjoyed. Although the mountain bear has reached level six, which is enough to kill a team of medium-strength adventurers or mercenaries, but with Senna, an eighth-level druid, and Bronze Whisker, Roy, two warriors and thieves who are also level six, the mercenaries quickly killed the sixth-level mountain bear and cut off the bear's flesh to feed his stomach.
"That mountain peak is Tiandu Peak!" Senna said to himself after swallowing the piece of meat in his hand in a few bites, looking at the highest peak among the reckless mountains.
"Tiandu Peak, I heard that those werewolves slay dragons there?" Roy asked vaguely, chewing on the bear meat in his mouth.
"Well, the news of this dragon slaying has spread all over the grassland. The Bloodfang Cavalry Regiment is worthy of being one of the four strongest legions of the orcs, and as soon as they entered the grassland, not only did they not be able to raise their heads against the mercenary regiments on the grassland, but now they even slaughtered a dragon!
He looked around at his subordinates and asked, "Are you afraid of fighting against an enemy like the Bloody Fang Cavalry Regiment?"
"I'm afraid of a bird!" Copperbeard laughed while nibbling on a well-boiled bear paw, "Boss, although we are still just mercenaries who are not in the stream, I know that your ambition is not just a mercenary group, your wish is to rebuild the elven empire, not to mention a bloodfang cavalry regiment at that time, I am afraid that the entire Beamon Empire is a journey under your feet." It is said that wealth and wealth are in danger, we will follow you, maybe if we succeed, the brothers can also be crowned as a general. Although the brothers are not from the elven race, if there is such a day, the boss will not treat the brothers badly!"
When Senna heard this, he couldn't help but be happy, and asked: "I remember the words of rebuilding the elven empire, it seems that I made a drunken gaffe, and you still take it seriously?"
"Boss, we can feel it, you're not just talking, and the brothers are willing to follow the boss to fight vigorously!" Roy said solemnly.
Senna smiled and asked again: "The Bimeng Empire has hundreds of thousands of armor, and there are more than twenty saint-level powerhouses in the country, how can our small mercenary group overthrow such a behemoth?"
Roy said with a smile: "When the first emperor of the Byzantine Empire, Caesar Selassie, raised an army against the Ulan Empire in his hometown town, there were only eighteen people including him. But in the end, he built a great empire like Byzantium. We now have thousands of people, and we still have a city as the foundation of our business, and we are in a much better position than Caesar Selassie at that time! By the way, I remember that a philosopher once said: 'A spark can become a prairie fire!', although we are weak now, who can say what will happen in the future?"
Roy's answer surprised Senna a little, he glanced at Roy deeply, then moved his gaze to the sky, and said: "'A spark of a spark can become a prairie fire!' This sentence actually comes from Elder Princeton, the sage in the history of our elven race, such a simple truth, but unfortunately my people just don't understand!"
Looking at the endless sky, Senna's gaze gradually became firm.
"Teacher Sindore, I will prove to you that I am right!" the young black elf muttered to himself silently in his heart.
"Boss, the brothers are all fed, shall we go on our way now?" Copperbeard's loud voice pulled Senna's thoughts back.
Senna nodded, and didn't forget to advise: "Cut more bear meat and bring it with you, now that the werewolves are chasing behind, we will try not to clash with the demonic beasts in the mountains, so as not to delay the trip." For the next few meals, we relied on the meat of this mountain bear to fill our stomachs. ”
After cutting off dozens of catties of meat from the bear carcass and dividing them into several parts, everyone continued to embark on the road of escape.
