'Bang-', an alchemical flare was shot into the night sky.

Orange-gold light pierced through the treetops and beams into the forest.

Fang Yu looked up at the dazzling light from the roof of the carriage, and his mind seemed to return to Talen a month ago. That night was the same night battle in the mountains and forests, except that the two sides of the war were different.

This time, it was the Rainhearer and the Blood Oath.

Perhaps history played a big joke on him, because the latter happened to have an inexplicable relationship with one of the participants that day, the Jeffrey Redcoats.

This relationship may be either a secret branch or an alliance, but it is not officially recognized by both sides.

It was the fourth flare rising above the night sky, and they lit up the valley as bright as day.

The Bloodoath seems to have been a little confused by the course of action of the Rainlisteners after their first breakout, and wanted to find out their true direction in this way.

But this is no easier said than done in a complex valley, where the two sides have completely lost the whereabouts of each other's main forces, and only scattered detachments have rammed into each other, and such sporadic engagements prove that the two sides have not yet disengaged.

It's like two blindfolded people playing hide and seek with each other, everything can only be guessed.

The battlefield was chaotic, and skirmishes were frequent, and even Fang Yu himself could not determine where they were, so he could only barely judge whether they were advancing south.

The last time Grant heard from his side was five minutes ago, sending them south through a valley and informing them that their destination was not far away.

The valley runs north-south, but the woodland is full of dead leaves, and the roots are growing in the dark, and it looks like it is inaccessible, and there are no snake people to see the remains.

Fang Yu looked down, Luo Yu was hurrying to strengthen the suspension bridge on the platform, everyone else was on guard, and Tianlan and Ji Ta were guarding a ballista on the left and right sides.

Due to the experience gained from the last night raid, Fang Yuan's temporary solution was to install a crystal searchlight on the front saddle bridge, the size of a human head, referencing the platform's own magic furnace - an occasional searchlight that did not add to the burden on the magic engine.

This searchlight is even more useful than expected, and its beam of light can also shine tens of meters away in the forest, which can be used not only to blind night lizardmen, but also to find paths and avoid dangerous terrain traps in the night.

The only downside is that the controller itself may be exposed to danger, but if it is controlled by the big cat and the maid lady, it is generally not a big problem.

Coincidentally.

It was at this time that Fang Yu saw the maid's searchlight tilted to the side, as if she had found something in that direction.

Then suddenly there was a sizzling sound in the darkness.

Everyone was already familiar with this voice, and Sky Blue exclaimed on the platform below: "Night lizardman! ”

Fang Yuan straightened up from the roof and looked around, it was not the first time they had fought these monsters, and they knew their habits very well.

The next moment he saw the blue-black fur monsters walking through the darkness, their ability to climb and jump so well that they were on the ground on the trunks of nearby trees.

When they got closer, they screamed and leaped from the trunk of the tree, landing like apes on Mr. Graystone's back.

Sky Blue and Kita were already moving, turning the huge ballista under Parker's guidance, making a clicking sound.

"On the right!" Paparal, who was in charge of acting as an observer, and Miss Maid shouted in unison.

Sky Blue pulled the trigger, and an arm-thick crossbow shot at one of the ends, sending the monster down from mid-air. "I hit!" The little girl screamed excitedly.

However, ballistas are used against larger opponents, and for the large number of night lizardmen, it means to be stoned into the sea.

Parker was also on the side, but to no avail, the night lizardmen quickly broke through the first layer of defense.

Just as a night lizard man flew from the darkness with the sound of the wind and landed not far from the plover.

Fang Yu looked at the monster.

Seriously, this was the first time he had seen this humanoid monster up close, and the noxlizards were burrowing creatures, so they were generally short, about one meter five or one meter six on average.

They are thinner than humans, but they are agile, have night vision, snake-like heat detection, and have an excellent sense of smell, making them natural hunters.

Their most distinctive feature is the blue-black skin of rain frogs, and a collared crown like an umbrella lizard around their necks.

The night lizard landed firmly on the roof, and approached the square plover with a wooden spear in hand, like a wild beast, and it opened its collar and sizzled threateningly.

Fang couldn't help but remember that he had read about these creatures in the community, and Professor Lawrence, the first forerunner and authority on New World biology.

Lawrence believes that the night lizardmen do not live in the shallow rock crevices of the floating continent as the Aborigines imagined, but come from the deeper underground world.

Because some geologists also support this view, they calculated the buoyancy of the Guy crystal and concluded that most floating continents may have cavity layers, and there may be a very different ecology from the surface continent underneath.

Fang Plover saw the white eyes of the night lizard people like a silver film, and he had a sudden feeling in his heart, which is a typical characteristic of life in a low-light environment, and the first thing he thought of at this moment was not a battle, but a sudden feeling of shallow realization on paper.

Every time he stayed in this world, the more he felt that he had come to a wrong place, and every strange part of this world was deeply attracted by the adventure factor flowing in his blood.

Even if the same danger lurks beneath this beauty.

Seeing that he was indifferent, the night lizard probably thought that the human had been frightened by himself, and had already screamed and attacked. Fang Yu came back to his senses at this time, raised his right hand and shot a rocket flying fist with a bang.

But the night lizard man was so nimble that it dodged his punch when it was a little shorter, but it clenched its spear and was about to move forward, when suddenly there was a low buzzing sound in its ears.

It was the sound of a small magic engine—

The small winch inside the gauntlet of the Fang Plover was reeling in full force, and the cable connected to the flying fist suddenly tightened into a straight line, and the night lizard suddenly sensed the danger, and when he turned around, he saw a black shadow whistling and flying.

Fang Plover put his palm back, and let the flying back hand armor slash at the bridge of the night lizardman's nose, and the latter hissed in pain, and was dizzy from the beating, and for a moment he couldn't distinguish between southeast and northwest.

Fang Yuan retracted his gloves with a click, and at the same time stepped forward and slammed the dazed lizardman off the platform.

At the same time, three or four more night lizardmen landed on the roof.

Fang Yu was turning around, and suddenly a shield flew in the darkness, and it flew around the four-headed night lizardman, knocking them all away before flying back in the direction they had come from.

The big cat man raised his hand, caught the shield steadily, and then clicked it back into his right forearm.

"Thanks, Mr. Red!"

"You're welcome, come down first, you kid doesn't know where to be so bold." The lion-man paladin shook his head, he just felt that this little human boy was a little innocent, but after a long time, he found another trait in the other party.

Heartless.

Those who dare to climb to the top of the carriage at this time are either bold or stupid and bold. However, the other party is only a combat craftsman, half an alchemist, and generally speaking, these two types of professions should be kept away from danger as much as possible.

"Don't worry, Mr. Red, I can still handle a night lizard," Fang Yu jumped down from it with a good flow: "Actually, if Mr. Red doesn't make a move, I can also try the three-headed night lizard." ”

"Come on," Red replied with a reflexive sword, slashing down a night lizard crawling up from below, "If you're a little injured, Attila won't let me go." ”

"Miss Elf is just too nervous, how can you take risks without getting hurt?"

"Then you can go to her yourself."

Fang Yu smiled, he didn't have the guts.

He actually wanted to observe the situation in the valley from above, who would have thought that there would be a battle?

However, he also intends to exercise his melee ability, and the ability of the part-time Supreme Choice School, isn't that the purpose? If you have learned the relevant skills and knowledge but are not proficient in them, what is the difference between that and wasting experience?

At least he's happy with his rocket punch, he still has a lot of ideas to come up with. In terms of the richness of theoretical knowledge, Fang Yu was confident that few of those Grand Guild-born trainees could compare with his own in terms of breadth.

Of course.

In a truly dangerous situation, he will never take risks easily.

He is not timid, but it does not mean that his brain is bad.

In his judgment, the nature of this battle was not much different from the previous one, in fact, it was just a skirmish.

He didn't see the night lizard wizard, nor did he see the large number of sacrifices, indicating that the other party was just a small team.

As expected, after the opponent launched several strong attacks on the platform and ate two explosive shots from Parker, he left more than a dozen charred corpses behind and left the battlefield in a panic.

The glow of the flares had completely dissipated, and the forest had returned to darkness.

Fang Plover looked at the shadows that were gradually disappearing in the forest, and then turned back to Red and said, "This should be the last group of night lizardmen, the further north they go, the more they number, you see them fleeing north, there should be no more of these monsters in front of them." ”

"So we made a breakout?"

The big cat man picked up the corpse of a lizardman with his claws and threw it off the platform, turning the corpse into white spots of light in mid-air and dissipating into nothingness.

In the darkness, Red struck a match and lit his pipe.

It lifted its pipe, bit it into its mouth, raised its head to look at the light spots flying in the forest, and then spit out a puff of smoke and said, "What is the relationship between these ghosts and the Blood Oath, I heard that they never interact with humans. ”

"Ahem." Sky Blue walked from not far away, choked on the smoke. Because her nerves were too tense, her little face was a little pale at this time, and she couldn't help but be dissatisfied: "Big cat man, you smoke again!" ”

Red took off his pipe and asked softly, "Did you choke?" ”

Tianlan shook her head and said generously: "Forget it, you can continue to smoke." She said as she took two steps back.

As for the lionman's question, Fang Yu couldn't find an answer.
