Chapter 3: The Beast Rider of the Swamp Clan

The bandits crowded in a queue swelled, pushing and shoving their companions apart, making way for a passageway, and they twisted their heads stiffly back in unison, looking behind them in fear, as if they had forgotten the threat from the frontal mercenaries.

Captain Sempley's expression was extremely solemn, with his years of experience, he could tell that this was a rare demonic beast with the amazing roar just now, but what he was worried about was not this, but that this demonic beast could actually blend in the crowd, which meant that it was controlled by people.

He stared at the end of the empty passage, as if he felt the chill on his face, and the unprecedented pressure enveloped him, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and said again: "Ready!"

The heavily armored swordsmen behind him raised their swords again, their movements were still uniform, their bodies as solid as rocks stood still, and the leather-armored mercenaries clenched the short swords in their hands, their faces were slightly nervous, and they looked at their companions from time to time uneasily.

In the process of waiting quietly, there was a stiffness in the air that could not be dissolved.

"Crackle!"

With a whistling whip, a tiger-shaped demonic beast with golden markings seemed to emerge from the ground, and suddenly broke into everyone's sight, it has agile limbs and sharp claws, a high arched back and a thick neck more than two meters high from the ground, broad shoulders and a narrow waist and abdomen are obviously a graceful inverted trapezoid, the steel whip-like tail bends upwards in an unruly arc, from head to tail five or six meters long is full of oppressive force, green eyes flashed a line of blood, that defiant look as if he didn't put anything in his eyes, wherever he went, he roared a few times at the people around himThe bandits involuntarily rolled backwards and climbed backwards, and the people made way for a wider avenue on their backs.

After the ice leopard walked out of the queue, it swooped forward, falling less than five meters in front of Sempley, and the thick meat pad jumped from a high place to the ground without making any sound, and then looked at the human in front of him with a very human and provocative gaze.

Someone at the back of the convoy had his teeth chattering and his face was pale and trembling, "Yes, yes, it's an ice leopard!"

Ice leopards, known for their agility and incredible stamina among ice beasts, are also known for their ferocious habits.

Luo Lan, who was not far away, whistled and said, "I'm in trouble." Then he found a tree and climbed it, looked down strangely, and said, "Why don't you come up?"

Standing under the tree, Seberdine looked up with a strange expression and said, "Friend, ice leopards can climb trees. ”

Luo Lan laughed: "I just want to see it clearly......" He suddenly asked inexplicably: "You say, does the ice leopard like to eat men or women?"

Seberdine was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "I'm afraid women are much better than us." ”

Luo Lan looked at the crowd of ladies gathered, and said with a sigh of relief: "Then I will rest assured......

Seberdeen didn't know what he was relieved about, but the current situation completely attracted his attention.

Sempley shouted wildly, the fighting spirit on his body was released desperately, and he swooped towards the ice leopard with an amazing momentum, and the grass clippings around him were driven by him to fly for a while, and then fell with a crackle, this invincible force added a little courage to the mercenaries behind him, and they screamed together to cheer for their captain.

It's not that they're afraid, but in the face of the swift and powerful Warcraft, small-scale killings won't have any effect, but will add additional variables and casualties, so the mercenary teams that hunt Warcraft on the continent usually don't exceed fifteen people.

In fact, this also originates from the heroic plot on the mainland, usually when the two teams cannot distinguish the winner by large-scale battles, the two strongest people will face off, but this method has been continued in another way for civilian mercenaries.

Although it is only one man and one beast, the fall of either side is the key to turning the tide of war for both sides.

Looking at the sharp sword gradually approaching, the ice leopard seemed to raise its claws and suddenly retracted, and then roared, quickly lowered its head, and dodged the attacking sword at a very small distance, its actions were greater than Sempley's expectations, although the monsters are also intelligent creatures, but they generally do not take the initiative to dodge the attack from many creatures smaller than them, before he came back to his senses, a tail like a steel whip has pulled out a phantom in the air, accompanied by a dull sound of breaking the air is pumping on his back, his own momentum plus this power took him off the ground, throwing towards the trunk of the tree seven or eight meters away, Heavy armor may be effective against swords, but it can't resist this powerful blow at all, everyone can't see his face, only see blood gushing out of his face armor, but it's not over, the ice leopard's back shrinks and bows, and then suddenly opens its big mouth and roars out a cloud of ice mist, spraying towards Senpre who is in mid-air, after a series of rattling sounds, under countless leaves solidified into ice sculptures, Senprey was frozen on the trunk of the tree by a piece of almost messy frost that reflected the light, only a soft hanging arm was still firmly grasping the long sword in his hand, and the blood stains that were scraped and condensed together could be seen on it。

The ice leopard let out a nonchalant roar, as if mocking human ignorance.

All the mercenaries looked like ashes, and it seemed that they had lost their fighting spirit.

The rear of the convoy began to stir up again.

Luo Lan sighed secretly, but unfortunately, the sniper crossbow for thieves was abolished hundreds of years ago by the Mage Guild and the Knight Alliance......

But at this moment, the situation on the field changed again, with a whip, the ice leopard suddenly fell to the ground obediently, a guy in blood-red clothes walked out, the bandit next to him immediately let out a noisy cry, his head is different from humans, it is two male double horns that bend backwards, the open collar under the neck reveals the strong chest muscles, the light blue skin can be seen with small scales, the lower body is a leather skirt, the short legs are exposed, and even a few thin webbed wings can be seen at the elbows and ankles, and the waist is a coiled golden belt, and his mouth makes a purring sound, constantly waving a short black whip in his hand.

Immediately, well-informed people in the convoy recognized it as the Mel of the Swamp Clan!

The swamp tribe is actually a collective name for dozens of races, among which the Mel people are the most famous, because they are born beast masters, and they can control different magical beasts through secret methods for driving through secret methods throughout the ages, and in the front line of the confrontation with the human army, the Mel people who lead dozens or hundreds of magical beast armies are the most feared and headache enemies of the human army.

Mel waved his hand first, and the bandits' voices immediately stopped, he glanced at the convoy, and when he opened his mouth, it was actually an authentic human language, but his voice was a little muddy and heavy: "Don't panic, friends of the caravan, I am the master of this territory, Hugh Ketu." I don't need to hurt your lives, I just want you to know that you can't fight us. We will give you one night to consider, send two messengers, remember, only two people, and take with you half of your wealth, and I will let you pass through here safely. You don't have a choice, and don't try to run away, or every one of you could become food for my pets," he stretched out a finger the thickness of a turnip, and shook it, "Remember, all I need is gold." ”

He let out a few snorts and left with the ice leopard and everyone else, but everyone knew that the nightmare had just begun.

Sebudin frowned and said: "He is right, walking at night in the forest is looking for death, and going out can only follow places with water and dry roads, and the solitary action is either devoured by demonic beasts or robbed by other sporadic robbers." ”

Luo Lan looked at the line of defense they were leaving, and said coldly, "Are you sure he said yes, everyone?"
