"Lord Lexa, you're finally back!"

As soon as Lexa stepped into the tribal camp at the crossroads, the camp guards rushed over, as if they had been waiting for the Beastmaster and his party to return.

"Did something happen? Why do you seem so anxious? ”

Lexa looked at the camp guard in front of him, as if sensing something was not right.

"Lord Lexa, the Tribal Guard Tower on the west side of the crossroads has been fiercely attacked by centaurs since the day before yesterday, and we have sent reinforcements several times!"

The tribal guard reported loudly, as if Lexa wouldn't hear what he was saying.

"Centaurs? Assault on the watchtower to the west? How many troops do they have? Let's go, go in and say. ”

Lexa turned around and glanced at the teeth on Micha's back, motioning for the little troll to also participate in the discussion of the military situation, and began to ask about the battle situation.

Tooth slid down the bear's front legs with the elven dragon egg to the ground, walked quickly to Lexa's side, and followed them into the inn.

"Lord Lexa?!"

The camp guard looked at the little troll who came to him, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, and asked the Beastmaster with his eyes why a minor troll would come to discuss the military situation.

"Don't underestimate him, he might be of great help."

Lexa didn't think so, of course he knew Yaya's talent, if he really wanted to guard the crossroads camp, Yaya's analysis of the battlefield and combat deployment might really be of great help!

"One...... Little trolls?! ”

The camp guard shook his head and smiled, but because of Lexa's insistence, he didn't say anything more, but quickly started the battle briefing.

"The night before yesterday, a large number of centaurs were suddenly spotted at the watchtower to the west, and it didn't take long for them to attack the watchtower."

Out of nowhere, the camp guard found a sketch of a barren land depicted in animal skins, pointed to the markings on it, and began to report it.

"This attack came so suddenly, we were not prepared at all, and some of our men were used to strengthen the crossroads on your orders."

The camp guards looked embarrassed, and the wounded had caused quite a stir.

Although two were eventually rescued, they seem to be stuck in some kind of dream, and no useful information can be provided.

"Oh! Right! The guards who had increased their vigilance could be removed, the problem with the Wailing Caverns was largely resolved, and there was no threat there. ”

Lexa didn't tell the camp guard the details of his entry into the Wailing Cave, only that he could redeploy his men.

"But you have to inform all the tribesmen of the Barrens not to enter the wailing caverns of the Sweetwater Oasis, the problems in the cave are not all solved, and you must wait for the arrival of the druids."

The Beastmaster didn't forget to remind the camp guards to inform the tribesmen of what to do, although even entering the Wailing Cavern was not as dangerous as it used to be.

"Waiting for the druid?! I see, I'll get your orders on as soon as I can! ”

The camp guards are apparently full of doubts about waiting for the Druids to arrive to solve the problem of the Wailing Caves, and generally do not use these guardians of nature.

It seems that the problem of the Wailing Cave is not simple, so it is his first task to get the Beastmaster's orders to every tribesman in the Barrens as soon as possible.

"How many troops do they have?"

Tooth spoke suddenly, and the camp guard was still thinking about the Wailing Cave, when he was suddenly startled by the little troll's question.

"What are you asking?"

Of course, the camp guard didn't hear Yaya's question, but he had been reporting to Lexa, and the little troll's question made him unresponsive for a moment.

"Centaurs, how many troops?"

Yaya asked again, this time even specifying that he wanted to know how many troops the centaurs were.

"It's not clear, their attack is too fierce, and our warriors are struggling to hold the guard tower to the west."

The camp guard was a little overwhelmed, he really didn't have a definite answer to the little troll's question, even though it was the third day of the battle.

"And how many troops have you seen attacking so far?"

Tooth asked, but his eyes never took off the map of the hides.

"When we cleared the battlefield this morning, there were about eighty-nine centaur corpses counted, but these casualties should be less than a quarter of the forces they have already participated in the attack."

The camp guard frowned, and although he didn't seem to be very satisfied with the answer, he was finally able to answer the question.

The camp guard had the strange illusion that he was standing next to Lexa as an equal to the Beastmaster, rather than a minor troll.

"That's not right! Such a massive attack did not break through the defense of a watchtower? These centaurs are too weak in combat! ”

After listening to Yaya's question, Lexa began to ponder for himself.

It stands to reason that centaurs are a very fierce race, and they have always been predators who sweep around, how can they attack for two or three days in a row and not even be able to solve a single watchtower?!

"We have rallied all the tribesmen near the crossroads to fight, not just the garrisons of the Barrens, but also the tribesmen who happened to pass by."

The camp guard explained, but Lexa still shook her head, Fangya holding the elven dragon egg in one hand and touching her long fangs with the other, lost in thought.

"You can't have all the garrisons in the Barrens mobilized so quickly, and the tribesmen who happened to pass by just happened to be suitable for battle?"

The Lexa camp guards questioned that it was obviously very illogical that the centaurs did not break through the western watchtower in such a situation.

"They did it on purpose."

Yaya thought of something, and raised his head to Lexa and said.

"Even judging by the forces that the centaurs have already put in, it will only take half a day to destroy the watchtower in the west, but they haven't, why is that?"

Lexa shook her head, indicating that she didn't know why, and waited for Yaya to continue.

"They have other purposes, and I think this purpose has something to do with us!"

The Beastmaster frowned, he seemed to understand what the little troll meant, but he wasn't quite sure.

"We went to three oases and slew the centaurs in the Barrens after they were leaderless, leaving them leaderless and the plan to take over the Barrens on hold."

Toothy carefully analyzed, Lexa listened carefully, and nodded to indicate that this was indeed the case.

"I remember some centaurs escaped, and it looks like they went to bring in the rescuers."

The little troll spread out one hand and shrugged his shoulders, apparently powerless against the fleeing centaurs!

"Lexa, their target should be the tribal leader of the Barrens, and it is you who meet this condition, ......"
