Chapter Twenty-Four: Jungle Killing
The army continued to advance, and on the way the dragon brothers and sisters returned one after another, and the team did not reach the forest where the ogre tribe was located until late in the evening.
At the edge of the forest, Amos saw the symbol of the ogre tribe, a pile of pyramidal heads, a common way for savage humanoids to mark their territory, using enemy heads to warn visitors, and ahead of them was the territory of the ogre clan.
Generally speaking, the strength of the clan can be roughly inferred from the number and type of heads, but the pile of skulls in front of him is seriously weathered, and it seems that it has been there for a long time.
The Amos dragon slapped its wings one by one, and the head was blown away into powder, and the white dragon had come to find trouble.
The rain continued to fall, dripping on the white dragon, sliding down the scales, and Amos looked at the forest in front of him with a solemn face.
This ogre tribe has been inherited for a long time, most likely 10,000 years ago, and for such a long time, the devil knows how many traps they have placed in the forest.
"Team 1, Team 2 Nightcrawlers!
"Yes! ”
Two teams of 20 Fish-Man Nightcrawlers, most of whom are black-scaled fishmen, are thieves among the fishmen.
They are hunters in the night, familiar with all kinds of poisons and traps, skilled in combat, and the first choice of pathfinders, this profession has the highest mortality rate, and the number of dependents who have made contributions to the White Dragon, at least half of the White Dragon's 500 dependents are Night Kinkers.
The Nightkin went ahead to find their way, and Amos flew into the sky to orient the ogre tribe, ordering the fishmen to cut down trees to create a passage through which the siege machines could pass.
Amos watched the progress of the fishmen cutting down the trees, and roughly calculated that it would take two days to open the passage.
Felicia suggested, "Why don't you wait for the rain to stop and burn it again?" ”
Amos shook his head.
"There are a lot of great guys on the main island. ”
Amos doesn't want to draw the attention of the legendary existence on the main island, and if some boring guy is attracted by the fire of the burning island, then play Dafa, and it is better to keep a low profile before stepping into the legendary.
Time passed slowly in waiting.
A fish-man nightcrawler sprang out of the forest and ran to the White Dragon Lord and got down on one knee.
"Master, we have been ambushed by the gnolls and are calling for help. ”
"Gnolls?"
Amos remembered the occasional gnoll seen in the ogre tribe, different from the rugged "wild dog people" in the outer villages, it was the real gnoll, it seemed that the ogre was not completely brainless, and chose the strong gnoll man as his subordinate.
"Old Blind, you take two teams of Nightkin and two teams of Tide Hunters to support, and continue to advance and clear the logging obstacles. ”
"Yes!"
After Amos gave the order, he bowed his head to the Nightkin who asked for help, "How are the traps being checked?"
"We found three traps, all of which were in disrepair and had lost their effectiveness. ”
Amos frowned, which he hadn't expected, but he was quickly relieved that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.
According to Amos's character, he will never give up if he does not build his lair into an impregnable wall for 10,000 years, and these ogres are on an isolated island in the sea, and they have no opponents for a long time, and they have long lost the vigilance that the evil race should have.
However, Amos will not despise the ogre at all because of this, and it is strange that it can be inherited for so long, and there are no hole cards at the bottom of the box.
At present, we can only see the tricks.
"Old Jimmy, send more people to speed up the progress of the passage. ”
"Yes. ”
"Elena, manipulate the animals to keep an eye on the ogre's every move. ”
"Okay, brother. ”
As a level 3 druid, Elena is still very easy to manipulate some small animals such as birds, and the ogre would never have imagined that there would be a druid who is close to nature in the dragon team.
Boom, boom, boom.
Night was coming, and Amos looked up at the gloomy sky, where the lightning and thunder never ceased, and the rain grew heavier and heavier, crackling on the leaves and accumulating into water in the lowlands of the forest.
Tomorrow is destined to be a day of bloodshed.
......
"What?fish-man?intruder?"
"Yes, Chief, that's what the Gnoll Guard said. ”
In the stone castle in the center of the ogre tribe, the two-headed ogre chief sat on the skin throne, listening to the report of the ogre's subordinates.
The ogre chieftain said angrily with two heads with eyes in his head, "Where did these fishmen get the courage to offend the noble Skull Shattering Clan?!"
The two one-eyed and one-horned heads in their heads roared loudly, "Gul is going to crush them!"
"Shut up, Gul, you're yelling at me!"
The one-eyed head embarrassedly touched his horn and smiled, "Okay, Garu." ”
Gary said in a gruff voice, "Huck, bring in the gnoll who told the news!"
"Yes, Chief. ”
Ogre Huck walked out with his staff, and soon returned with a gnoll.
As soon as the jackal entered the house, he fell to his knees and quickly climbed to the feet of the ogre chieftain, waging his tail like a dog, and kissing the steps at the ogre chieftain's feet.
"Salute you Gnoll Mossskin, noble Skullbreaker, mighty master!"
"Hahaha!" Gul laughed at the jackal's sycophancy.
With a frightening smile on his face, Garu said, "Very well, lowly gnolloin, tell me the information you brought. ”
"Our gnoll squad was stationed in the camp in the forest, and a group of fishmen who appeared out of nowhere attacked us, and the rest of the squad died, but I was the only one who escaped. ”
Before the gnoll could finish speaking, the ogre chief kicked the gnoll away.
"Waste! You can't even win against the fishmen!Are you eating shit?!"
The gnolls curled up on the ground and said with difficulty, "Chief, those fishmen are different, they can sneak, and they all carry iron daggers. ”
"What?"
The Ogre Chieftain and the Ogre Magi in the hall all exclaimed.
The ogre tribe has a heritage of enslaving kobolds to dig ore to forge weapons, and they know what it means to have iron in their hands.
They are being targeted by an equally powerful force.
Gulgaru's face was solemn.
"Let's talk about it. ”
The gnoll man slowed down for a while, and said with palpitations: "Those fishmen are well-trained, cooperate with each other very well, are ruthless, and the tricks are not far from the key points, if I don't run fast, I will explain where I am, after escaping, I reported to the captain, and then I hurried to report to the master." ”
With that, the gnoll looked at Gulgaru and smiled.
"Very well, you have done a good job, I exempt you from being a slave, you are my servant from now on, Huck you take it down. ”
"Praise be to you!
The gnoll quickly fell to his knees and kissed the cold slate passionately.
Huck dragged the jubilant gnoll out on the hind legs.
The two-headed ogre chief was alone in the empty hall, his hands crossed and his chin pinched on both heads, leaning back on the Hides Throne in contemplation before muttering to himself.
"White Dragon?!"
