Chapter 3: An Interlude in the Battle
In the distance, an overwhelming tide of beasts swarmed, and their target was this team.
As the distance shortened, the terrible howl was clearly audible, and it reached everyone's ears, and there were countless dense black shadows, like locusts pressing the realm, and the excitement expressed by their howls could be heard;
It can be seen that there is blood and madness in their eyes; One can imagine the terrible end of encountering and tearing apart with them in a few moments.
No one can keep peace anymore, and even slaves who are numb and desperate for life do not want to die;
The merchant soldiers on the side threw down the long whip in their hands early and fled in all directions, and the blue wolf cavalry gave up the task of scouting as early as the first time, and began to run away from a distance by relying on the advantage of their mounts;
The whole team was engulfed in a frenzied rampage.
Liu Ming came back to his senses, quickly broke free of the beast tendons that bound his hands, and when a soldier next to him fled in a hurry, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and the whole person pounced on him like a cheetah, and at the moment of jumping high and landing, his clenched fist slammed towards his head!
The huge force of the thousand pounds suddenly exploded, and with the addition of the dive advantage, the power of this punch became even stronger;
At this time, Liu Ming's explosive power alone exceeded the limit of the third layer, and his body flexibility and speed were comparable to the peak physical cultivation of the refining body, and this soldier didn't even have time to react before he was hit on the head by this ferocious sneak attack.
A soft "pop"!
The soldier's head cracked like a broken watermelon, and he spat at the red and white things on the ground, Liu Ming's eyes were full of disdain, if it wasn't for forbearance, how could these little minions bully him? Revenge is his obsession that goes deep into the bone marrow, and if he has no scruples at this time, how can he be spared? This soldier is in charge of his area, and he usually receives a long whip.
Liu Ming leaned over and picked up the unlucky soldier's wooden spear, picked up a round shield and held it in front of him, and quickly took a quick step towards the elite team position in front of him.
Liu Ming didn't run away, because he knew that without a mount, he would never be able to outrun the fast-moving and long-lasting beast tide, and he would inevitably be caught up and eaten in the end;
The only chance to survive is the elite of the squad who can feel the suffocation just by standing in front of them, and perhaps, there is a chance to get a glimmer of life near them.
This huge convoy of 100,000 slaves had fallen into a stage of complete chaos at this time; All people want to flee with their lives, no one wants to die;
At this time, the most tragic thing is undoubtedly that more than ninety percent of the slaves, their hands are tied and they are connected by ropes in a string, most of them desperately struggle to get rid of the bondage, but except for a very small number of slaves who maintain physical strength and physical strength, after struggling to break free, most of the slaves have been sitting on the ground in despair and waiting for death to come.
With the passage of time, in less than a few minutes, the Beast Tide Vanguard Force was already within reach;
Feeling the ferocity of these ferocious beasts up close, the slaves who were unable to escape closed their eyes in despair;
Liu Ming was mixed in the fleeing procession of the merchants and a few slaves, always hanging near the square team that was neither in a hurry nor slow, and still advanced and retreated in an orderly manner in this critical situation;
He could observe that the eyes and movements of the hundreds of elite warriors of the square team did not show any panic, and some only had resolute looks, as if this beast tide was coming, and for them it was just another time in countless battles.
Finally!
The horrific beast tide has crossed paths with the slaves who can't escape and stay where they are!
This group of beasts is all ordinary wolves with a body length of about two meters and a height of about one meter and a half, although it is an ordinary wolf pack, but the huge number is daunting;
There were about 20,000 wolves, and they swarmed all over the world, and in an instant they opened their fangs wide and pounced on the slaves.
Suddenly, screams, cries for help and the last roar before death reverberated in this desolate land; Blood, broken bones, and even more exciting wolves are even more crazy!
Tens of thousands of wolves instantly overwhelmed the entire ranks of slaves!
The tragedy of hell on earth is going on like crazy!
But the survivors didn't care about this, and listening to the crazy screams in their ears, they accelerated the pace of escape, and if they were overtaken, they would end up the same;
Obviously, this huge group of wolves did not satisfy their appetite, and the wolves divided into a small number of about half and continued to chase frantically towards the fleeing team;
Although they had expected such a result, all the people couldn't help but scold in their hearts, these hundreds of people are not enough for you to stuff your teeth, and you are still chasing! But in desperation, he could only continue to speed up his escape.
The first to be caught up were the unmounted merchant soldiers, whose resistance caused only a few dozen casualties, and then they were drowned in the wolf tide without making a wave;
Liu Ming still has dozens of more capable soldiers who are still holding on, and if there are no accidents, the end waiting for them is still to be overwhelmed by the tide.
Finally! The elite warriors of the square team have come into contact with the swarming beast tide!
This is also the last ray of life that Liu Ming is looking forward to!
The entire hundreds of elite warriors formed an iron bucket-like formation, surrounding the black-robed dragon knight in the middle;
Everyone in the iron bucket formation was divided into five groups, the spear in their hand was sandwiched under their ribs, their right hand was tightly clenched, and the shield in their left hand was across their chests, and in the face of the crazy attack of the wolves, they had only one movement!
Horizontal shield! Out of the spear! Fallback!
Horizontal shield! Out of the spear! Fallback!
The personnel divided into five groups began to alternate in turn, and each person in a round of defense and offense, there were only a few simple movements, and each person's movements were as smooth as the clouds of water in their peers, like the most sophisticated instruments, and they were repeated all the time.
In the face of the crazy attack of the wolves, everyone was indifferent, and they did not panic when they shot, and they shot sharply, and the spear in their hands was enough to take away a life, and the powerful force even knocked the wolves into the air in an instant; The orderly rhythm of advance and retreat made no one suffer casualties at this time!
Each of the soldiers in the square team is at least a physical cultivator in the body refining stage, and it is not a problem for one person to torture and kill more than a dozen wolves;
The individual combat effectiveness is already like this, so how terrifying should it be to form an army and cooperate with personnel of the same level to kill the enemy for a long time? A single master is already extremely difficult, but what about an army composed of masters?
For a while, the crazy attack of the wolves was actually blocked by these hundreds of people! It's like a reef in a rapid, and although it is submerged by the tide every time, it can quickly resurface.
Like a turning scythe, the team quickly moved towards the rear, leaving wolf corpses everywhere along the way; The bloody aura rose to the sky, and the fierce fighting made the sky seem to be dyed with a layer of blood red.
Liu Ming looked at this square team that was like a killing machine, and his heart couldn't help but boil with blood!
These buddies are really reliable, and this time they really didn't press the wrong treasure!
As time went on, these elite warriors began to suffer casualties, but the number of chasing wolves also decreased; After comparing with each other, it was not difficult for this group of elites to withdraw from the battlefield, but at this moment, the battlefield situation suddenly had a new change!
I saw that in the distant sky, some black dots slowly appeared, and after a while, they flew to the upper position of the battle; Liu Ming jumped high to dodge a remnant wolf that rushed madly towards him, and the spear in his hand nailed it to the ground;
Taking a breath, there were already several injuries on his body, but they were not affected much, and his flexible speed was the biggest reliance on his survival here! After taking the time to look at the flock of birds that appeared in the sky, he was stunned again!
I saw that this was a group of birds about three to five meters long, with wings spread and nearly ten meters wide, the arc of the eagle-like giant beak barbed hook flashed with dangerous light, and four strong claws grew on the lower abdomen, flashing cold light under the reflection of the sun;
He was saddled with a shackle around his neck, and on his broad back was a strong man with a huge spear!
As soon as such a terrifying fierce bird knight appeared, although there were only dozens of them, it still had a certain impact on the wolves below, after all, this was their natural enemy nemesis;
Their appearance not only had an impact on the wolves, but even the mysterious black-robed strong man who had been under the protection of the square encirclement and standing quietly on the terrifying swift dragon also spoke out at this time:
"Haidong old ghost! I knew you were playing tricks! Come out! Don't pretend to me anymore when you come! ”
The sound was like a muffled thunder, constantly echoing in the wilderness, and the fierce birds that were hovering in the sky were all trembling, and their strong strength could be seen!
"Haha! It's not a loss, he is known as the most outstanding genius of the brute beast family! How dare you make a provocation when you see the old man? Hum! Didn't the elders in your family teach you how to venerable the elders? ”
A huge fierce bird circled one by one, and stopped steadily above the square team, an old man with a gray beard, but ** upper body, with a body of muscles like a rock; At this time, he was smiling and looking at the dragon rider riding below!
"It seems that the elders of your family really love you, how can Xunlong be comparable to a fierce beast of refining body, and he is willing to give you this little hairy boy as a mount, he is really wealthy!
Hey! If you let this little guy die here, your parents will probably be distressed and half dead, right? Haha~"
"Humph! The old ghost of Haidong has the ability, even if he lets the horse come! What is your purpose in driving the wolves to attack our family caravan? Aren't you afraid of the revenge of my brute clan? ”
At this time, the Swift Dragon Knight was no longer hiding, and directly lifted the black cover covering his head, revealing a resolute bearded face, and roared angrily at the old man with his head up to the sky.
"Huh! You know exactly what I want! Although your family has covered it up very well this time, it has made a big deal to transport nearly 100,000 slaves at a time, and has also sent the elite brute fighters of the Barbarian Beast Family,
Originally, these were nothing, but I didn't expect you to be smart this time! I actually sent you to personally escort this convoy? ”
"No matter how valuable a lowly slave is, it will not allow you, the best young master of the brute beast family, to escort you, unless...... In this transport team, there are things that your family does not feel comfortable handing over to outsiders for safekeeping!! And you're a great choice! ”
"Combined with the rumors some time ago, you robbed a small tribesman of a shocking treasure that was accidentally obtained by a small tribe member on the periphery of the exit of the barren forest in the Savage Domain! Although you later clarified that there was no such thing, if it was really a treasure, how could it be obtained by a weak tribe member? ”
"Although you were extremely low-key after the incident, no more information was transmitted, and the various forces did not find any movement from the members of your area, I believe that the real name of this matter!
"The members of that area of the barren forest are still there without any action, but I know that the treasure must have been secretly transported by you, although this place is far away from the barren forest, but combined with your various actions, I have a lot of reason to believe that the treasure must be on you at this time, am I right? Respected Brute Beast Family Genius Young Master? Chatter~"
At the end, such a white-haired old man couldn't help but laugh proudly!
The sturdy black-robed knight, with his bearded face, suddenly became ugly
