In the evening, the leaders of the three reconnaissance detachments once again converged on the beacon tower.

Where the long-awaited are Soros and Mark. And Elusa, Dorant arrived almost at the same time. After waiting for a while, Luke arrived disgraced. However, he was not the only one who came up, there was also a fresh face.

It was a man in a convoy dress.

If there's anything that can reassure a voter, it's Kantas's convoy and her news that is the best.

However, instead of giving them time to be happy, Rook said directly: "The situation is a bit bad, a large number of monsters have blocked the trade route. Now we are completely isolated. ”

Under the encouraging gaze of the crowd, the members of the convoy finally spoke out about their experiences.

"The Hunters' Guild has sent a convoy of twenty herbivorous dragons and twenty hunters as escorts. But along the way, we were attacked by a dragon, an attack by two horned dragons, and then a group of daimyo shield crabs, and an attack by a dragon that I had never seen before. When we desperately broke through their blockade, two more black wolf birds appeared in a group. Now, I was the only one in the convoy who escaped. "The young convoy wept incessantly, and their hands trembled. It seemed that the successive terrible encounters made him almost have a nervous breakdown.

"What is that 'dragon' like?" Mark asked.

"It's black and white, and there are a lot of blue butterflies around it....."

The pupil shrinks to the size of a pinhead.

Everyone's eyes were full of fear.

"Dorant, you send him down to rest, he needs a barbecue, a soup, and a mattress."

Dolant nodded, and took the guy who could barely walk.

"This Scourge Dragon! It's really a ghost! Mark threw the large cup in his hand, and then, as if suddenly remembering something, he handed Rook the quiver that Dorant had left here.

Luke took it suspiciously, and found that it was a demon feather butterfly inside. Grab its wings and lift it up. Then place it between the wings of your nose and smell it.

"It smells weird. I remember the taste of it. ”

Rook gives the feather butterfly back to Mark, but Mark shakes his hand and refuses.

"You show it to your teammates and smell it, only Dorant and you guys are here right now, and you're professional at tracking monsters. Maybe one day we'll be able to use your scent memories. ”

Rook pursed his lips and smiled directly.

"Elusa, you don't seem to have said what you found." Soros saw that everyone was silent, and forcibly turned on the silence.

Elusa pulled out a small crystal from her pocket: "We've found traces of the tailed crystal scorpion. ”

Tailed Scorpion! The third monster that now haunts the people of the Third Station!

One is the group of monsters that blocked the passage between the third and second stations; The second is the mysterious, but terrifying Calamity Star Dragon: the last one is to pay all the wounded tail crystal scorpions in order to take the third station.

It was as if a huge dark cloud hung over everyone's heads.

"How did you find it? Where is it? ”

Elusa took out her map and pointed to it: "There is a beaver beast that has been hunted by the tailed crystal scorpion, eight kilometers from the inn. Then his fingertips quickly crossed an arc: "Here, there is a herbivorous dragon that has been hunted by the tailed crystal scorpion, and it is about twelve kilometers away from the post station in a straight line. ”

Twelve kilometers... It is not far away, but it is not close. In short, it's a very troublesome thing.

Of course, it's also possible that it's gone far.

The information uncovered by the three reconnaissance teams was displayed in front of the eyes of the high-level executives, and they were struggling to think about how to deal with it.

The dark night gave people a particularly unsettling feeling, and Rook suddenly asked, "How many people are keeping watch now?" I don't want to be killed by that Scourge Dragon. ”

"Three people keep vigil at the same time, even if it is a rotation, there will be overlapping moments, and the overlapping period is a six-person vigil, and there is no vacancy time for standing guard. Even if it comes to sneak attack, we will be the first to do so...."

"Ah!!!h

As Mark spoke confidently, the screams of the sentries came from under the beacon tower and above the wall.

The four men ran to the edge of the beacon tower and looked down. As if sensing the gaze of someone from above, the monster that attacked the sentinel raised its head and looked at them defiantly.

The monster in front of him looked white from a distance, and the edges of its carapace glowed with a hint of black light. The arrows on its forelimbs are full of spongy holes, and there are several demon feather butterflies around it. However, contrary to what was expected, there was nothing blue about the head, shoulders, and tail of this scourge dragon.

With the dead sentry in its mouth, this Calamity Dragon glanced at the four of them defiantly, calmly jumped off the wall, and quickly retreated to the depths of the dense forest.

"Damn! Are all the sentinels dead? What about alerts! Mark said angrily, however, Soros pointed to something on the fence. Mark closed his angry mouth completely.

On the fence were two scattered corpses of sentinels.

The soldiers hurried down the beacon and struggled to dispel the fears of the onlookers. Mark was able to get close to the two bodies.

Both of their heads were gone, and the broken ballast showed horrific burns and signs of corrosion.

According to Dorant, the wounds were very similar to the ones he had inflicted on the tree when he killed the Demon Feather Butterfly.

"Looks like it's got a lot of human flesh." Rook said lightly.

Two sneak attacks, each taking away a corpse. It seems that its hobby is really scary.

"Soros, I suggest we send an army to exterminate this Scourge Dragon." Mark called the young city lord by his name, and it seemed that he was serious.

"It's night! We don't have a good sight and don't even know anything about it. You let your brothers die in vain? Soros also deliberately accentuated his tone on his brother.

A high-level argument broke out between the two city guards.

"Five of the twenty-man city guards died to deal with the tailed crystal scorpion, and your hunting team also died two! And then there's the current Scourge Dragon! Four people died! Half of the team of twenty people is gone! My brethren are great warriors, but they are flesh and blood! They will be afraid, they will be afraid, and they will .... Doubt the meaning of your own fighting. ”

With that, Mark almost fell out.

Looking around, Soros suddenly found that the soldiers of the city guard who had just woken up were full of anger, numbness and fear in their eyes. Although he doesn't understand warriors, Soros understands people's hearts a little. If there is no more vigorous victory, I am afraid that the morale of the army will be dispersed.

"Do as you say." Soros said helplessly, although he has a lot of brains to put on a political show, but he is still too young after all.

Mark knelt down on one knee to signify that he had been ordered. After waiting for Soros and Dorant, who was following him, to walk away, Mark stood up.

"I'll call eight boys later, would you like to come along?" Mark said to Elusa and Rook.

To Mark's surprise, he expected someone to join, but both refused.

Elusa refuses because of her ominous consideration of the Scourge Dragon.

Rook, on the other hand, is on the fence about this kind of monster that he has never seen in person, and dealing with monsters, a large number of people is not necessarily a good thing.

Mark didn't say anything, after all, the two of them helped their brother not long ago, and the favor hasn't been paid off yet, and Mark doesn't want to owe any new ones.

Soon, Mark happily named seven sturdy young men. In addition to himself, follow the smell of blood to track down the Scourge Star Dragon.

The eight of them followed the smell of blood and went out in the direction of the Scourge Star Dragon's escape. Tracked for a full two hours. Although the long-distance run drained the soldiers' physical strength, they continued to run as if they were unconscious.

Because the smell of blood is getting stronger!

After crossing a small hill, eight people went around the hill separately, and the mutation was born.

Four blue demon feather butterflies suddenly emerged from the soft soil around them and swooped down on the eight soldiers.

Although the shooters tried their best to react, under the hasty shot, only one demon feather butterfly was shot down.

The other three demon feather butterflies crashed into the two soldiers and Mark.

Mark hurriedly raised his greatsword and held it across his chest to block the Demon Feather Butterfly's self-detonation attack, but the greatsword of the energy also melted its blade for this.

The other two soldiers were not so lucky, they had neither the weapons to block nor the reflexes, and the corrosive bodily fluids of the Demon Feather Butterfly and the blast wave blasted the soldiers into ugly and disgusting shredded flesh.

In an ambush, Mark, who had lost two brothers, turned pale. But all they could do was bury the bodies of their brothers and prevent them from being dug up and eaten by wild beasts. Then continue to catch up, and the best way is to dismantle the Scourge Star Dragon and comfort their spirits in the sky.

Grief and anger rushed over the hearts of the remaining five soldiers. They silently buried their brothers in the ground, then clenched their weapons and continued to walk forward.

Just ten steps forward, four blue demon feather butterflies drilled out of the ground!

There is another ambush circle so close to the ambush circle!

Not to mention that the angry soldiers didn't think about it, even a captain like Mark, who had seen quite a lot of the market, didn't expect it at all!

Cunning.

The Demon Feather Butterfly, which surpassed the boundaries of the imagination of the six, pounced towards the soldiers.

Seeing the tragic death of being killed by the Demon Feather Butterfly, the attacks of the two archers all failed. In a panic, Mark picked up the big sword in his hand.

Although there was no blade, the extremely heavy sword directly smashed the two flying demon feather butterflies, while the remaining two demon feather butterflies flew above the soldier's head and then exploded.

The acid splashed and poured onto the soldier's head. The three soldiers were drenched in an instant. Clouds of white smoke rose from their metal helmets. The enormous heat generated by corrosion is unbearable for them. They hurriedly took off their hoods and threw them aside.

However, the acid that flowed down their necks around the armor and into their bodies caused them even more pain.

They scratched at their bodies with all their might.

So much ambush, so will there be more ahead?

Caught in a dilemma, Mark thought quickly.
