Chapter Eighty-Four: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, and the Yellow Sparrow Follows

The light of the broken army flashed, and the cottage suddenly returned to silence.

With additional [Rage Slash] damage attached, these guards didn't withstand the wounds of my second critical hit.

They just kept the same attacking motion, standing still and not moving, like sculptures.

"Congratulations on your upgrade, current level 33."

"Bell."

I stood the [Poisonous Dragon Halberd] heavily on the ground, causing the ground to tremble slightly, and the guards in front of me were like sliced pumpkins for a while, and the upper body slipped from the waist to the ground, leaving only two legs to stand there, like a work of art.

And on that [Dawn], a letter suddenly fell and was picked up by me in my hand.

"Xiaoyu! How are you......! "The thin man was worried about my safety, and after hearing the tornado, he teleported in directly to help me, so I quickly put away the letter and put it in my backpack, and put on a smile to face the thin man.

The battlefield that had been cleared in front of him made him stunned in place, a little blank.

He slowly shifted his steps past the broken corpses on the ground, kicking left and right to make sure the guards were dead.

After the sound of blades striking outside the wall, the beards who had settled the battle also ran into the wall, but they were all shocked by the situation in front of them, and their mood was a little overwhelming.

"Brother Yu, tell me the truth, are you hanging?" The overlord came over and pushed my shoulder with a sad face, "Kaihang is going to be sealed!" Brother Yu! Don't do such a stupid thing! โ€

"Go, go, go, go, who's hanging, it's really~" I knocked out the overlord's cheap hand.

"I knew that yesterday's tornado must have been your skill! Where did you come from? "Xiaoling's cleverness has always been obvious.

I turned my head to look at them and smirked, "yes, I completed a hidden mission before, and I gave you a skill book." โ€

Everyone suddenly realized "oh", and they had an understanding of these things.

"! It's so hidden! You're not funny kid! โ€

"Oh my God, the boss is invincible! Long live the boss! โ€

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

What I thought was a tricky thing was easily solved in half an hour, and the light-hearted crowd gathered around me, constantly asking me about the cause and effect of this skill.

But the happiest thing is the beard, the guards of other races have no hatred to kill, but he is the same beast clan as these guards, I thought that killing the same kind of guards would cause a lot of trouble, but he did not have any signs of a red name.

However, as the saying goes, these guards don't drop any items other than experience, not even a copper coin.

"Isn't this a den of bandits, how can there be guards?" The topic returned to doubts, and no one could say anything about the situation in front of them.

I was even more puzzled, the actual situation was completely inconsistent with what the leader said, if I had to give an explanation, it could only be said that the orc guards came to exterminate the bandits, and just happened to meet us, and an inevitable fight began.

It's not impossible to think about it this way.

"Alas, come and see! There's a treasure chest here! โ€

While everyone was still discussing, a thin man suddenly shouted in surprise from a certain house.

"Treasure chest!?" Sensitive words that aroused everyone's interest.

We all rushed to the house where the thin man was shouting, and when we entered, we found that the boy had pried open a hidden compartment on the ground, and a treasure chest the size of a cup was placed inside.

With the sharp dagger in the thin man's hand, the lock on the treasure chest opened with a "bang".

The atmosphere was eerily quiet for a moment.

The thin man looked up, surrounded by a circle of disdainful eyes.

"Look what I'm doing! Look what I'm doing! What do you mean? What do you think of me? This is a hard prie! It's not my opposite!! โ€

The thin man cried and defended himself, and everyone just "cut" disdainfully, and continued to check the box with big curious eyes.

The chest opened, and inside were dozens of gold coins and four or five pieces of equipment, all of silver quality.

"Oooh! Rich, rich! โ€

The appearance of several of them who had never seen the world was suddenly exposed, and they picked up the equipment inside one after another, and couldn't wait to check the attributes.

"That's it, our equipment is almost the same, and the level of these equipment is only more than level 30, so let's give priority to the lady to choose, and the rest of the people will share some money to make up for it." Ah Liu is a very gentleman, and he gave the priority of the equipment to the lady.

We all understand that this is to take care of the new recruits, Xiaoyu and Yueling.

Xiao Yu was very arrogant, and he didn't shirk it, and immediately picked up the equipment and compared it with his own.

It's just that Yue Ling is more or less embarrassed, and his face is full of melancholy.

"Yue Ling, you're welcome, choose a few." I smiled and urged her, not wanting her to be too unusual.

She shook her head, "I just entered the game, because there are very few women in this profession, so there are also many boys who take the initiative to pull me to upgrade together, although I have been taken care of a lot along the way, but they have never taken the initiative to give girls to you like this, and many times they will even run away alone......"

The poor past makes people feel unsympathetic.

The originally lively atmosphere suddenly became a little more embarrassing.

The beard slapped his thigh, and he was very bold: "Then it's decided, you will follow us Xiaoyu in the future!" Let him protect you! โ€

"Oh oh oh oh !!" There was a round of commotion around them.

"Don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss, the equipment can't stop your mouth." I frowned and scolded them for their naivety, but I didn't see a moment of strangeness on the Moon Spirit's face.

But after a few moments, she regained her natural smile and watched us play together.

"Look around again to see if there are any similar hidden compartments in other houses!" The thin man who had tasted the sweetness came to his senses, stood up and was about to go to other places.

The temptation of money and equipment also prompted everyone to join the search queue.

"Come on, I've got some pickaxes here, you guys go dig up the walls." I gave them the pickaxes I had found in the mine in my backpack and told them to rummage them around.

The cottage became a treasure hunting place for a while, and the clanging was full of banging sounds.

It was just me, quietly hiding behind a house, opening the letter I had just picked up and checking the contents.

But the things described in it made me sweat all over my back.

"Great Priest, the soul stone of Master Erli that you have been begging for has been seized by a ranger, and he is now about to go to the bandit village of Luofeng Mountain, I hope that your department will quickly send someone to intercept it, and be sure to recapture Master Erli's soul stone!"

Thinking about the contents of the letter made me shudder a little, I didn't expect that our whereabouts this time were completely in the calculations of others.

In this way, these orcs came here because someone reported the news, but I was delayed, so I came late.

There is only one person who knows about this, except me.

The leader of Shanhai Town.

Unexpectedly, he secretly colluded with the orcs to harm me?

The major races have always been at odds with each other, so why would this leader betray my whereabouts to tell these orcs? What's in it for him? I also helped him to suppress the bandits and find supplies!

There's something wrong with this boss!

Wait a minute!

Isn't that box just now a material......

My thoughts were a little confused, I was trying to sort out all the connections, and my mind was full of so many things, and I didn't know where to remember.

"There's another box here!"

Suddenly there was a cry of beard outside, and I hurriedly got up and ran, and everyone arrived, and beard was struggling to chop the treasure chest, but this delicate and small chest was extremely hard, and it was difficult to hurt even if the beard was smashed.

"Get out of the way, I'll come." The thin man pushed away his beard, took out his small dagger and pried it left and right at the keyhole, and in less than three seconds, there was a "click", and the lid on the top of the box popped up a crack.

Once again, the atmosphere was silent.

"Ahem, can you please not look at me like that? Why can't you trust me? Although I usually have a little hobby in this area, I am definitely a gentleman! โ€

The thin man's weak defense could no longer restore his image, and the eyes of everyone with contempt became more and more intense, and he was full of black lines.

Beard opened the box, but there were no gold coins and equipment inside, only a few letters.

"I'll take a look!" When I saw the letter, I hurriedly took it from my beard's hand and probably flipped through the contents.

Sure enough, yes! This leader is not a good bird!

"What's wrong? What was said above? They asked curiously.

I lifted my eyelids, and there was some distinct annoyance in my eyes.

These letters are all records of the collusion between the leader and the bandit leader, who will pass by the merchant car here one day, and the people who will pass by here, and how much property they have carried, all of which they remember clearly, and the leader also clearly marked the price, so how much kickback the bandit leader gave him after the matter was completed.

I still believe in him so much, he actually colluded with officials and bandits, and used his position to plot the people's money! It's a shame that he's still the parent official of a town! To do such a dirty deed!

No wonder Festik reminded me of something to deliver to him, and perhaps he was aware of such a despicable trick up his sleeve!

No, no, no, maybe Fetic was involved? He just wants to retract this evidence?

The situation took a turn for the worse and left me more and more confused, and I didn't know who to trust or who deserved to be believed.

"It's useless, it's all the records of these bandits." I slowly put away the letters, casually brushing them with a perfunctory beard.

Hearing that it was not a treasure record, they immediately lost interest and scattered to continue looking for the treasure chest.

I sat there, trying to put things together.

Does he want to use me to get rid of these bandits?

No, these bandits are a lot of money and income, why should he get rid of these bandits?

Maybe he crossed the river and demolished the bridge? Or maybe it was the bandits who got hold of his secrets and threatened him? That's why you are killed?

There is some possibility of this explanation, this kind of plot is very common in TV, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests.

If you just explain it like this, you can still say that it is in the past, but these sudden appearance of the orc guards made the whole thing confusing.

After much deliberation, a very possible idea came to my mind.

These bandits may have no use value, or they may be threatening him, so he wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge to get rid of these bandits; When this happened to me, he took advantage of my freedom in exchange and sent me to settle the matter by my hand!

At the same time, he secretly colluded with the Orcs, and took advantage of the Orcs' desire to recapture the Erli Soul Stone, driving them to track my movements.

This reason made these orcs come out to this bandit village.

Regardless of whether I arrive first or last, these orcs will definitely not let go of these Terran bandits, and they will definitely go on a killing spree.

Then, the matter of getting rid of these bandits will have a double guarantee.

If I get here first, then I'll get rid of the bandits, and then the orcs will kill me and destroy the evidence.

Even if I delay the time and get here, the orcs will still kill all the bandits and ambush here, and then suddenly appear to kill me, and the plan will not change.

It's really a good calculation! I knew this old fox had a conspiracy!

It's a pity that they can't count me as a person, let alone my hidden strength.

The orcs are not stupid, there must be more than these combat forces coming, Erli's combat power is very important to them, so there must be a strong man who has not shown up.

"Come out!" I stood up and yelled around me.

"Good boy, really smart!"

"Hulala~"

The trees behind him suddenly shuddered, and a short figure sprang out and landed on the roof, leaning on a cane, although it seemed weak, but we could all feel the terrible magic it exuded.

ใ€Savage Fortress Shaman Gelcotใ€‘(Gold Boss):

๏ผŸ๏ผŸ๏ผŸ

Introduction: The strongest shaman in the Savage Fortress, with unfathomable magical strength, has been secretly sheltering the Savage Fortress from the invasion of enemies from the outside world.

Your sister's, there is still a golden boss hidden?

"This guy is an NPC of the orc, don't rush to do it first, communicate with him and see if there is room for relaxation." The appearance of the shaman made Beard a little scared, he knew that we were not his opponents, and a rash panic would only lead to death, so he exchanged his views with me.

I stepped forward and clasped my fists in friendship: "I don't know why the orc shaman is here in person?" โ€

"It's not about your business, it's just that I'm here to retrieve Master Erli's soul stone, and I don't blame you for killing my people today."

This shaman is small, but he has a very ghostly heart, and he has watched us kill these guards for so long and do nothing, just to find a reason for himself to act.

It's really the life of a soldier.

I smirked and dismissed his request: "The shaman's intentions are understood, but Erli has already betrayed her soul to the undead, she is now our common enemy, and it is better to leave it to the juniors for safekeeping, and find a suitable opportunity in the future to completely destroy it to ensure the safety of our two clans." โ€

He still had a smile on his face, and he looked kind and kind: "This doesn't bother the little hero to come out, we will deal with it when we go back." โ€

Bullshit, only fools can believe this.

In order to get more combat power, the Imperial City even dares to release a big demon like the Dementor Woman, what do you beasts dare not do with the same face?

Bacheng wants to recover Erli's soul stone, and use some evil and crooked resurrection spells to reuse Erli as a battlefield.

If I really give it back to you, I might cause some kind of trouble.

"This thing is hated by the chief, forgive me." I rejected his request outright.

The shaman snorted coldly, his face full of disdain: "It's just a brainless mongrel, why bother, as long as you hand it over to me, the beast clan will definitely treat you with courtesy!" โ€

His hypocritical conditions sound ridiculous.

But this shaman overlooked one thing.

The leader of Shanhai Town is such a smart person, how could he easily hand over the Erli Soul Stone to me, an untrustworthy person?

If Erli's soul stone was really snatched back by the orcs, what good would it do to the leader? Just to eliminate a gang of bandits, is it necessary for him to let such a big demon go back to the mountains? If the orcs become stronger, it will definitely be detrimental to the human race, and he will definitely have damage to his interests, so it seems that his behavior is too stupid?

From beginning to end, I'm just a bait, a real hook, and someone else.

Moreover, he must also know the strength of these beast guards, and he must know that relying on these guards alone is like eradicating me, and it is not completely trustworthy.

If he really wants to solve such problems, then there is only one way to completely eradicate these doubts.

Send another powerful henchman here, so that no matter which side of me or the beast clan wins, this henchman can reap the situation.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind!

"Shaman, I beg your forgiveness for the fact that I didn't say this to you, but to others."

The shaman's expression gradually cooled, and when he heard me explain this, he must have expected something.

"Hahaha, what the leader said is really good, you kid has a bit of a brain, and you actually guessed my whereabouts." With a burst of applause and taunting, a deep voice came out from behind the woods outside the gate.

The sudden applause also aroused the surprise of the bearded people, and they all came back to their senses from the atmosphere, watching a general-like person outside gradually approach.

The thin man naturally knew this person, and he often patrolled the city gate building, and his conspicuous dress was clearly different from that of ordinary guards, and it was easy to distinguish.

But the general who was supposed to guard the town suddenly appeared in this remote mountain, which made them a little puzzled.

"Don't come unharmed, the general just now thanks to the general's trust, I was fortunate to meet the leader." I clenched my fist at the general, but my tone was disdainful.

"You're welcome, I didn't come here today for any other purpose, just to protect you from the beasts!" The general's words were cold, and he showed no mercy at all.

"We are grass people, we are not enough to worry about, I only hope that the general can protect this soul stone." I laughed, took Erli's soul stone from my backpack and pinched it between my fingers, and the stone looked very red in the sunlight.

"Protection? Wouldn't it be better if I destroyed it on the spot? lest the orc mongrels take it back! โ€

The footsteps became faster and faster, and the general took out a majestic Yunyue Broadsword from behind him, and rushed directly with a terrifying momentum.

[Shanhai Town Imperial General: Sheng Yueli] (Gold Boss):

๏ผŸ๏ผŸ๏ผŸ

Introduction: The first general of Shanhai Town, the unfathomable strength, is responsible for guarding Shanhai Town from the invasion of external enemies.

In terms of the strength of this general, our number is multiplied by ten for nothing.

I knew that this leader, for the sake of insurance, would definitely leave himself a hand of hole cards, no matter who could stand at the end here, he would be able to take back his game with peace of mind.

When the time comes, it will be announced to the public, and all the charges will be blamed on the orcs, and it will be perfect.

"You beast clan really have bad intentions, fortunately, the leader is like a god, and ordered me to come here, I didn't expect you to seek common ground on the surface, but behind the scenes there is such a face! Today, people have stolen goods, what else do you have to say. Sheng Yueli arrogantly scolded the shaman.

The rude words that the shaman said just now became the reason why Sheng Yue left his hands.

Such a clear intention completely annoyed the shaman, and he also tore his face and said directly: "I know that bastard is not sincere, but he just borrowed a knife to kill people, get rid of the bandits, kill this hairy boy, and then put the blame on our beast clan!" โ€

That's right, the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch follows.

There is only one cicada, and that is the bandits.

There's only one praying mantis, and that's me.

But there are a lot of yellow finch, Shanhai Town, and the beast clan.

In order to successfully recapture Erli's soul stone, the orcs also killed all the Terrans who came to send them to death and destroy the evidence.

In order to get rid of the bandits and get rid of us, the leader used the traces of the beast clan to blame all this on the beast clan, and then he logically smashed the soul stone, concealed the world, and made a great contribution.

Originally, it was just to recover the Soul Stone, but now it has exterminated the bandits, eliminated me, the wicked man, eliminated the incoming army of the Beast Clan, and destroyed the evil Soul Stone.

And we kill each other, and he reaps the benefits of the fisherman.

One merit is forcibly increased into four, this leader is really greedy and outrageous!

Things get interesting, the scheming fox chess meets the opponent, and the mantis, who was supposed to die, has the leisure time to watch the show.

"Anyway, I'm the weakest, whoever wins today, I'll give this soul stone to whomever I want." I held up the Soul Stone to signal my position, then retracted into my backpack.

Subsequently, I secretly sent a message to the bearded them, telling them to hurry away.

They didn't dare to linger knowing that the situation was urgent, but they told me to be careful, and then left quickly.

The two big bosses didn't stop it, as long as I was the most critical person, it was enough.

Gelkot was also extremely annoyed, and was very disdainful of such a ruthless and unrighteous behavior of the leader of Shanhai Town: "As expected, there must be something strange about this matter, originally he asked him to help us retrieve the soul stone, and he always had an excuse to push back, but now why is he suddenly so happy?" Fortunately, the High Priest has a backup for me to come, otherwise you cunning humans would have been able to get away with it! โ€

With that, he looked left and right at the scattered orc guards on the ground, and then he stretched out his dry palm, gathered all the souls on these corpses into his palm, condensed them into a point, and then submerged them into nothingness, as if retracting their souls.

At the same time, it trembled the staff in its hand, vaguely condensing some spell.

"Be careful, General, this shaman seems to be able to use the dead orcs to increase his own strength." I shouted mischievously at Sheng Yueli, the shaman who had seen through the small movements was also impatient, and the nine thunderbolts were scattered into several branches and slashed directly towards this side, and the thunder exploded and broke the objects along the way, unstoppable.

I was so frightened that I didn't dare to pretend anymore, so I quickly crawled and ran behind the rocks on the side to hide.

Two big NPCs of more than 60 levels are at war, and a small minion like me can't interfere at all, I just need to wait and see what happens, and find a suitable opportunity to escape.

Besides, I still have the resurrection skill to save my life, so I can avoid a hand when it is critical.
