Half a day later, in the deep darkness of the night, more than a hundred warriors divided into two teams, left the small valley where they were hiding again, and entered the vast mountains.

At dawn, there was a cave in the back of a large waterfall less than five kilometers away from the outpost camp of the original Mad Lion Division.

Four Awoken Ones, with the warriors who had lost their mounts, protected all the lightly and seriously wounded.

The other 55 warriors with mounts formed an attack formation and lay in ambush in a ravine less than three kilometers from here.

Last night, they forced their way through a blockade and killed more than a thousand steppe wolves, and arrived here, one step away from returning home, but it was also the most difficult step.

According to the investigation, their original checkpoint has been completely razed to the ground, and at least 100,000 steppe wolves are stationed there.

The cliffs on both sides of the canyon were high and steep, and the whole canyon seemed to have been split by an axe light, and Bruce and the others hid their figures with huge trees that covered the sky, and their eyes were fixed on a shallow beach a kilometer away.

It is said that it is a shallow, but it looks more like a long dam, with a gentle but deep river on one side, and a rocky beach with a length of several hundred meters and a drop of more than 30 meters on the other.

Anger pointed to the dam and introduced the situation, whether it was Bruce's identity or Miledi's strength, it made him, the captain, unconsciously put himself in the position of his subordinates, but no one felt that there was anything wrong: "If you want to go back, this is one of the necessary roads, and there are several other places, but they are either drawbridges, or too narrow for a beast of this size to pass through."

So, there's more than an eighty percent chance they'll go from here.

The natural stone dam is about 300 meters long, about a dozen meters wide, and the water depth is about less than two meters, and it may be difficult to pass through it at the height of a steppe man, but there is no problem in riding this giant beast.

If we could have allowed them to fall into the rocky beach behind them, where the water was strong and the rocks were slippery, it would have broken their bones. ”

Bruce frowned and said, "The ambush is not a big problem, the problem is how we use to hurt them, it is simply too difficult to make them fall with our bows and arrows." ”

After thinking about it for a long time, there was no better idea, and more importantly, the adult Ward males were afraid of water at an extremely high rate, and no one had the courage to attack directly in the water on a raft.

Seeing that the sun was getting higher and higher, the first giant beast could already be seen in the distance walking with heavy steps, but there was still no specific battle deployment.

At this time, a young warrior behind Bruce shyly leaned over and said, "Maybe we can use poison." ”

"Poison—what poison is so powerful?" asked Aang.

Bruce recognized that this was his younger brother Buffy at the academy, and he followed him to the Wild Lions Division after graduation.

Although he is tall and burly, he is a little shy because of his personality, like a quiet girl, so everyone nicknames him 'Bu Niang', and what is even more shameful is that he agreed with a smile, and he didn't mean to be angry at all.

Bruce even maliciously wondered if it weren't for the fear of his existence, the animals in the army, who had never seen a woman all year round, would have secretly killed him that night.

Far from it.

Because Buffy was not a child of the Lion Division, and he was quiet, Bruce rarely paid much attention to him.

At this time, I was very surprised to hear him suddenly participate in the voice.

He asked curiously, "What poison?" ”

Buffet touched his flaxen-colored hair and said shyly, "My ancestors were born as hunters, so when I was a child, I often followed my grandfather into the mountains to hunt.

He told me about a poison that was used against the most difficult beasts.

It is not violent, as it is not lethal, but it can destroy the central nervous system of the beasts, causing them to lose their balance and the most basic ability to move.

The most important thing is that this poison can be found right now, and it works so quickly that even a little cut of the epidermis will be poisoned, and the amount of the drug is only the length of time. ”

Anger immediately understood what he meant, and said, "That's a good idea, you can try it." ”

At ten o'clock in the middle of the day, the commander of the steppe djinn tribe, Chagan, was at the end of the stone dam, he glanced at the behemoth that passed by him, and admired the greatness of the god Langdo.

Of course, there is also the commander of all the steppe people, the spokesman of the god Rando, and the wisdom of Tianxun Olinga, so that they can find the race of this ancient giant beast in the depths of the distant holy mountain, and spent a whole decade domesticating and breeding, until today it is sent to the battlefield.

The arrogant Ward fools have always considered themselves the sons of the god of war, and they are proud of all races by their huge physique.

Tsargan couldn't wait to see how small and vulnerable these behemoths must have been when they stood before them.

Looking at the sun in the sky, it has passed the agreed assembly time, the only drawback of these fears is that the speed is too slow, even with the command of the beast master Ah Xun, only three have passed in half a morning, and now there are still eight in the water, and one is about to be launched on the opposite bank.

But fortunately, each of the dinosaurs carried hundreds of soldiers, densely packed together, just like fleas on the body of the beast dragon, but it saved a lot of effort.

These monkey cubs are lazy, and they will have to use whips to show them that they are awesome.

The one in front of him was only a few steps away from going ashore, and Chagan instructed his men to get ready, and this step to the river bank also required the cooperation of his subordinates.

But it seemed that the dry season was about to begin, and the exposed mud on the shore was wet and soft, and if you were not careful, the overweight beast would sink its hooves into it.

As for safety, Chagan didn't pay attention to it at all, and the ruins a few kilometers away symbolized the bravery of the steppe people.

Now that the mountain was theirs, at least a million steppe warriors were gathering along the various passages to the front, and he didn't think that the scattered Wards would have the courage to expose themselves and provoke this terrifying behemoth.

I'm afraid they're hiding in some corner right now, shivering at these terrifying figures.

Unfortunately, Chagan only guessed half right, and before his men could tie the rope to the body of the fearful man, a loud eagle cry sounded in the sky, which was an alarm from the falcon in charge of reconnaissance.

Chagan turned to look, only to see fifty or sixty huge logs floating downstream, the wood was enough to be three people hugging each other, more than ten meters long, and the branches on it had been cut down, leaving only the deliberately sharpened head, tumbling and floating in the deep river water.

Tsargan sneered disdainfully, everyone knew that the Ward people were dominant on land, and they were lumbersome pieces of iron in the water.

With just a few pieces of wood, it may cause a little trouble to the monkey cubs on those terrifying bodies, but there is nothing that can be done about these powerful giant beasts.

Sure enough, the wood hit a dreaded man, making a violent sound, and the waves rolled, sweeping down the steppe wolf on the dreaded man's body a lot, but the giant beast just whined a few times, shook its head and continued to walk forward, without any damage at all.

The same was true of the dozens of other logs, some of which rushed straight down the rocky beach through the crack between the fears, and some crashed into the legs of the giant beasts, taking away a few steppe wolves, as if they had just scratched the itch for the team.

But no one noticed that there was a broken arrow tied to these logs every half a meter, and the sharp arrows were inserted upside down in the grooves, and when they hit the giant beast, they would more or less be under the impact of the force of the current, leaving one or two inconspicuous scars on the calves that were afraid of being blistered.

The scars were so light that there wasn't even blood, but the altered arrows had a groove cut out of them, and they were coated with greenish-brown concoction.

The liquid seeped into the skin of the terror through the tiny wounds that were invisible to the naked eye, and then into the bloodstream and into the brain.

Bruce and Anger didn't know that the river would take away most of the potions, but they couldn't help it.

If it was on land, they had countless ways to kill and injure these giant beasts, but in the face of the deep river, even the bravest Ward warriors did not dare to speak out, confident that they could make a white strip.

They could only hope that the poison that Buffet had configured could really work wonders, so that the poison would not be carried away too much by the river, and even he carefully mixed several different ingredients in it and then dried it over low heat, which is why it was delayed for so long.

The wood had disappeared and ran aground along the rocky beach, but the eagle cries in the sky did not stop at all.

Tsargan had his men blow the horn of vigilance and search the surroundings in a team of 100 people.

The 10,000-strong team stationed on the opposite side was also doing the same thing, and in the blink of an eye, the figures of the grassland people spread out like ants, covering this mountain forest.

At this moment, a shout of battle sounded in the woods half a mile outside the end of the stone dam, followed by several whistled bows and arrows, and a black shadow pierced the mammoth that was about to step on the riverbank.

But its skin was so thick that the metal arrow only pierced less than five centimeters before it stagnated, and it didn't even penetrate the thick layer of fat.

The beast howled in pain, flicked its nose, and swept the toothpick-like arrows off and into the river.

Tchagan commanded his men to encircle the woods, while he himself found behind a large rock and concealed his form.

The arrows were flying from 300 meters away, and he didn't want to make himself a striking target for the Wards.

The shouting and killing gradually faded away, it seemed that there were not many people attacking, and it was a high-level knight, in line with Chagan's judgment, the other party was just harassing, and those few small bows and arrows just scratched the itch of fear.

Suddenly, the head of the terror let out a loud roar, and his body shook inexplicably, shaking off the steppe wolf Kou who was sitting on him, his thick nose flicking in the air, and his big fist-sized eyes also revealed a painful look.

Before Chagan could ask the beast master, he saw that this man tilted his head violently, and fell to his knees as soon as his front legs were weak.

"Poisoned!"

Even without consulting the beastmaster, Chagan could guess the reason, it was too obvious.

It didn't matter if the giant beast fell, but its huge body blocked the area where it came ashore, and the fears behind it were still approaching unhurriedly, and in the blink of an eye, ten giant beasts had accumulated on the stone dam, blocking the river to the brim.

The beast master behind was urging, but the beast master who took the lead couldn't get his beast pet back on his feet with all his might, and every time he struggled, he would bring a large splash of water, almost knocking him out.

As the minutes ticked by, Chagan sweated profusely and ordered his team of 1,000 men to pull the giant beast up with ropes, or at least to get out of the way of the stone dam.

A few minutes passed, and the situation still did not improve, and even the four or five giant beasts that followed behind had problems one after another.

It's the same as the first one, but it's slightly milder and has a slower onset of action.

They either shook their heads restlessly, or swayed from side to side, and fell into the deep water with one step in the middle, while the remaining ones either fell to their knees or fell off the rock dam and into the rocky beach behind.

The huge body became a burden at this point, and under the weight of the huge weight and the hard rocks, the giant beast rolled and broke one of its hind legs, and no matter how much it struggled, it could not stand up, but could only lie there and wail in pain.

Countless steppe wolves also screamed and fell into the water, crackling like dumplings.

Those who know how to swim are good to say, try to swim to the shore, at least half of them are waterless, and the water of the river is almost the same as their height at a depth of one and a half meters.

They struggled violently in the water, and then either sank to the bottom and disappeared without a trace, or were swept downstream by the current, breaking their bones and tendons.

"No, the river is too gentle, and most of them just fall on their knees, not over. Bruce said, putting down the binoculars in his hand.

Aang nodded and said, "Fortunately, we have a backup plan, that Buffy is good, let me do it." ”

Bruce smiled: "You can negotiate terms with him yourself, and he will be satisfied, but let's go back alive first." ”

With that, he waved his hand, and a figure in the distance similarly waved in the direction of the upper reaches.

Moments later, five kilometers upstream, in a dense forest, the river was narrow, but the current was not as fast as it used to be.

The two warriors with the awakened second-level power swung the giant hammer in their hands violently and smashed it on a wooden stake.

The stake snapped, and the river trapped behind the dam finally broke through the barrier, forming a five-metre-high wave that roared down.

Along the way, countless stones and logs placed there were rolled up and rushed downstream.

There is also a similar dam, where two huge waves converge on a wide river channel, and the collision of logs brings countless whirlpools and sprays, and the sound is huge.

The eagle's cry in the sky sounded again, and several warriors did not dare to delay and ran towards the predetermined assembly point.

When Chagan heard the eagle's cry, he was standing in the water not far from the river bank, personally directing the warriors to pull the giant beast, the water level here was less than one meter, as an awakened person among the steppe people, his height was one meter seven, so it was not very difficult.

These giant beasts were their killer weapon to win those levels, Tianxun Olinger's heart and soul treasure, the loss of one was already terrifying, and he didn't dare to order them to push them into the rocky beach to get out of the way.

Over time, however, one of the fears has recovered and is struggling to stand up.

At this moment, Tsongan heard countless cries of terror, and when he looked back, cold sweat soaked his whole body at once, and he froze there.

500 meters away in the river, a flood peak more than two meters high is rolling in with countless giant trees and stones.

The speed of the flood peak was so fast that Chagan only had time to throw down the rope in his hand and run back to the shore when he felt that he was slapped out by a wave of air, and then he was drenched by the waves.

The dreads in the water were also resisting the impact of the flood, but the force of the current was too great, and the countless giant trees and rocks soon formed a larger dam with these giant beasts.

Then there is a higher water level and more turbulent power.

Finally he floated and slid into the rocky beach behind him, and all eight of the other eight beasts rolled away, except for one survivor at the mouth of the river in the distance.

From Chagan's point of view, you can even clearly see the broken teeth, as well as the white stubble exposed outside.

Chagan glanced at the sky in despair, fantasizing about his future tragic fate, he didn't know how many of these carefully cultivated and domesticated giant beasts there were, but the Eastern Grassland, which was responsible for the attack in the direction of Gaokan City, had only fifty in total.

But now, right under his nose, he lost nearly a fifth before he even entered the battle.

Compared to this, the thousands of steppe warriors who were swept into the river were nothing at all, and he dared not imagine how Daxun Aojia would punish him.

Tsagan was immersed in despair and pessimism, and he didn't even hear it, or he didn't care about the rumbling hooves in the distance.

A quarter of an hour later, Bruce picked up a piece of leather armor, wiped the blood from the great axe, and kicked Tsargan's head into the river.

He viciously raised his middle finger at the red-skinned wolf cubs on the other side of the river, leading his men in the other direction, one step closer to their defenses.

In a commercial city thousands of kilometers away from the southeastern defense line of the empire, Lynch stood in front of the window of the hotel, looked at the crowd rushing outside the window, and sighed.

As long as they board the train tomorrow, they will be able to reach Manfit, the capital of the Wardleiman Empire, in two days, from where they will be able to travel all the way north, all the way through the three countries, to the pearl of the northwest coastline of the Ancestral Continent, the port city of Willings, to begin their final journey back to the Twin Continents.

The news of the steppe invasion had been known yesterday, but he didn't want Yun'er to hear it, because he wasn't sure if his niece would change her mind when she heard the news, and let his plan fall short.

He is not a hard-hearted man, and even formed an indissoluble bond with the boy when he was still in his mother's womb, and it is fair to say that he has a good impression of Philip as a young man, and he also knows that Philip has an infatuation with Yun'er.

If it hadn't been for that desperate ending, perhaps he would have been glad to marry the Snape.

He didn't know if his decision was right or wrong, but when he thought of what kind of sorrow and pain his mentor had seen his young brother kill himself in his arms, he didn't want his niece to go through it again.
