Chapter 378: Outpost
"What do you think?" Hidden in a large tree, the Demon Hunter asked Legolas, "Have you ever seen this green skin before?" ”
The elven knight lay on the trunk of a tree not far away, carefully hiding his figure: "I've never seen it, I'm afraid it can't be separated from chaos, before this, I always thought that these green skins were immune to chaos." ”
Not far from the two of them, there was a messy green-skinned camp, or blackskin?
The color of these green skins is very impure, as if it has been dyed with ink, and although you can still see a little green, the whole is still mainly black.
"What are you going to do?" Legolas whispered, "Shall we go around it, or shall we take the risk and occupy this camp?" ”
Xu Yichen fell into deep thought, this is the outpost once established by the elves, and now it is occupied by these black-skinned orcs and regarded as his lair.
Maybe there will be information left by the missing elven rangers inside, of course, it is more likely that there is nothing in it, and even if there is, it may have been destroyed by the black skin.
The Demon Hunter had been lying on the tree for nearly twenty minutes, and the experienced Alex had given him a pointer, and the greenskin was very good at looking up, so it was a very reliable way to hide in the tree.
The camp was completely unrecognizable as if it had been built by the elves, and the various corpses that had been dragged out of the forest by the blackskins and eaten by the rest of the corpses gave the whole camp an unbearable smell.
The corrupted crow, who had attacked the demon hunters before, leisurely bounced back and forth among the corpses, with dense small eyes, picking out the parts worth eating with very critical eyes.
Nearly twenty-five black skins, not counting the number that may exist in the blind spot, this number could only be more considering that these guys often lay lazily for a day before they changed color.
"We'd better get around here." "There's no need to take risks, we still have a long way to go, and it's not worth wasting time here," Legres advised. ”
As the elven knight spoke, the corrupted raven, as if it had seen something delicious, suddenly flapped its wings and landed on a pile of even more decomposed corpses.
The pile of corpses that had been randomly piled up there by the black skins had obviously not considered the structural mechanics, and when this large corrupt crow landed on it, the whole pile of corpses collapsed with a bang.
The blackskins next to him heard the movement, just glanced at it, and casually threw the stone at hand.
The corrupted crow fluttered its wings in dissatisfaction, changed directions, and continued to peck at the corpse at its feet.
As the Corrupt Raven moved out of the way, a wrenched arm hung limply from the pile of corpses.
Although the exposed palm was highly rotten, the emerald green wrench finger Xu Yichen had seen on the fingers of other elven rangers countless times.
In the palm of the corpse's hand, a small tube covered in blood fell to the ground.
Legolas's breath suddenly shortened: "That's the magic bottle we use to hold the highest level of intelligence!" ”
"Calm down, Legolas!" Xu Yichen climbed down from the tree and whispered to the elf knight, "Let's go back first and then make a decision." ”
Legolas stared in the direction of the corpse for a few seconds before jumping down from the tree: "I don't know whose corpse it is, but those missing rangers, I've known them for nearly a hundred years, I can't just leave him here." ”
"I understand your feelings, abandoning the corpses of your comrades on the battlefield is also an unforgivable thing for us Seris, especially in this special environment." The Demon Hunter walked back lightly and said meaningfully to Legolas, "But don't you think it's all too much of a coincidence? ”
"What do you mean?" The Elven Knight asked with a frown, feeling that the Demon Hunter was a little too cautious.
"Why was that body exposed just when we were watching?" Xu Yichen walked towards the temporary camp without looking back: "Why does the magic bottle that represents the highest level of intelligence happen to be in that hand?" ”
"Isn't it safer to put that kind of thing in your own pocket?" The Demon Hunter said to Leglas, "Maybe someone did it on purpose. ”
"Maybe it's just a coincidence." The Elven Knight walked behind the Demon Hunter and said, "If our enemies can control so many variables and set up traps with countless things that seem to be coincidences, then it proves that we are too late, and we are dead." ”
"I hope it's a coincidence, but the experience of the Demon Hunter over the years fighting Chaos has taught me that if you doubt everything you can doubt, if things are likely to go badly, then it will definitely go in that direction." Xu Yichen talked nonsense about the knowledge he had learned in the military academy and put it on the body of the demon hunter.
"You should be hopeful, not pessimistic as you are now, or chaos will drive you crazy." Legolas stood still: "I wanted to bet once, it was just a coincidence. ”
"I'm going alone, if I die, my people will be under your command, with you, I think this operation will continue smoothly." The elven knight said firmly.
"Do you know why, of all the transcendents, we Demon Hunters are the most efficient in fighting Chaos?" Xu Yichen replied to Legolas: "Because we never have hope, we are used to fighting in despair, and we believe in efficiency more than wasting hope on gambling." ”
"I can't command your men, when you go, they will line up one by one to die, just like you." The Demon Hunter continued without looking back: "Let's go back and make a careful plan to improve efficiency." ”
Legolas had a smile on his face and followed.
"To be honest, you immortals are more emotional than I thought." Xu Yichen said: "A long life span can't make you more indifferent in the face of life and death. ”
"If you've ever seen those who fear death, you'll be glad that not all immortals are so ruthless." Legolas's voice was much quieter when he said the name Deathphobia, as if he remembered something terrifying.
"Fear of the dead?" Xu Yichen felt that the name revealed a villainous atmosphere: "What is that?" ”
"I'll tell you more about it when I have time, I haven't heard from them in years, and I may have fallen asleep somewhere." Legolas had a sighing expression: "It's better not to wake up!" ”
