Chapter Ninety-Eight: What Bulls, Ghosts, Snakes, and Gods Have Escaped

Several convoys were sent to the Third Station, carrying medicines, weapons, and all the necessary supplies for the construction of the Station.

But as time went on, convoys were dispatched, but none returned.

In addition to doubts, they had to send more convoys and reconnaissance teams.

And the people who were far away at the third post station were even more puzzled, obviously the news had already been conveyed to Kantas, why there were no more convoys.

The doubts are not limited to this, the third station has not been attacked by monsters for a long time.

This seems to be the tranquility before the storm, which has been teasing their hearts.

The towering beacon of the post station burns firewood every day capable of emitting huge amounts of black smoke. And looking at places that cannot be reached by sight, there is no response at all.

Soon, on the third day after the arrival of the dragon tail team at the third post station, the high-level leaders of the three parties barbecued and talked on the beacon tower.

Mixed with black smoke, Rook removes a piece of roast meat skewered with a twig, while the others do the same. The lack of necessities left them without even plates!

There are now only four people on the beacon. Soros, Mark, Elusa and Rook.

The four represent the strength of the three parties, Soros and Mark represent the city guards, although many people are injured, they can still squeeze out ten people as combat strength through gritted teeth; Although Luke is only the leader of a small hunting group, he has five combat power in the entire station, and his strength should not be underestimated; And although Elusa is the only one, she is an existence with a transcendent status in the outside world and a super personal combat power, so she also sits in the conversational room.

"It's been a long time since a convoy has come from Kantas outside." Mark said lightly: "And I don't know what's going on in the field now, and the monster didn't tentatively attack the station." This is very perverse. ”

Luke ate the roast and didn't speak. He guessed he was able to set foot here because he was useful.

"Didn't you empty the monsters?" Elusa said.

"Not really," Alusa said, and Soros followed suit, to show his undisputed status. Sure enough, seeing the young city lord talking, Mark was the most open.

"From the day before you came, the monsters stopped attacking. And two days ago, the scouts had scouted. I found them rushing somewhere like crazy. ”

"That direction is officially the only way for the third station to lead to the second station."

As if to provoke the bottom line of people's hearts, Soros's words are full of demagogy.

"You mean, those unintelligent monsters are blocking the trade routes?" Elusa laughed.

Soros nodded.

Soon, everyone fell silent, except for the crackling of the skyrocketing bonfire.

After a long silence, Soros spoke again: "We need a good reconnaissance team. ”

The future young lord looked at Rook.

"Captain Rook, are you interested in taking on this mission?"

Sure enough, the time to come is still coming.

"I'm not going to risk my teammates."

"Eight hundred gold coins."

"I'm not going to use their lives to...."

"A thousand!"

Soros's roar drowned out Luke's voice of reason. But right away, Rook countered by withdrawing from the meeting.

He stood up and walked towards the ladder that led to the ground.

"Hah! I thought you would be a democratic captain, and if you made such a decision without consulting with the players, maybe someone would be eager to make a lot of money? ”

There were cool words from Soros behind him, and it seemed that he was also frightened by the current bad situation, even if the woman he admired was by his side, he didn't care about his decency and loudly threatened Rook.

Rook turned around and pointed at Soros's nose: "Anything can be discussed, except for life!" ”

Late at night, Rook, who left the beacon tower, ran directly back to the side of the team, because there was no bed, he could only spread a piece of animal fur on the ground, and then slept in his clothes, acting as if nothing had happened the whole time.

The next day, the early risers greeted each other as if they were getting along very well, however, until now no one had arrived, which made the hunters of the soldiers at the bottom feel a little wrong.

The day passed quickly, and during the day, Rook seemed to know nothing, bragging and farting with his teammates, bragging about the awesomeness of the tribe he was born in. I also went out with them to collect all kinds of plants not far from the post station to improve the food.

Night falls. A soldier stood on top of the fence, looking around warily.

Night is the time when monsters like to haunt and attack humans. After all, at night, human eyesight is definitely not comparable to that of monsters.

Gradually, the soldier's concentration became tired. Yawn one after another, but the good training of the city guards kept him refusing to fall. Of course, it's not all the result of training, because a moment is the time to change shifts, and if the people who change shifts make a small report...

The trick to spotting incoming monsters is to see the silhouettes of the monsters in the moonlight, or to see their glowing eyes - monsters with night vision usually have glowing eyes, and then with the help of glowing insects.

Wild nights are not without light, and even without moonlight, the glowing light and thunder bugs are enough to decorate the dark world into a beautiful starry sky.

The lack of vegetation around the third post made the difficult vigil task much easier.

It's just that in the jungle more than a hundred meters in front of him, the faint and beautiful flashes that light up from time to time make this guard gradually fall asleep.

Slowly, four traitors emerged from a group of glowing white light worms.

They flashed a pale blue light. However, at a great distance, the white light and the blue light were almost mixed together, and when they fell into the guard's sleepy eyes, they turned into a lump.

Slowly, the four blue photoelectric lights gradually amplified, and the speed of movement slowly accelerated.

Suddenly, the lethargic guard finally woke up from his restlessness, and he fixed his eyes on four huge butterfly-shaped insects flying towards him!

The guard was about to shout to warn the sleeping people in the inn, but he kept his mouth shut.

He accurately judged the size of the four enemies that were coming, and then easily thought that he could handle them without hindering the rest of his teammates.

He pulled out his hand and slashed at the butterfly that rushed first.

——————————

"Ah!!!!h

The screams of pain from the guards resounded through the sky, completely disturbing the silence of the night. Even in their deep sleep, the people who were absolutely vigilant opened their eyes in an instant.

Elusa, who slept in her clothes, reacted the fastest, stood up, ran to the wall with a lunge, jumped suddenly, grabbed the edge of the five-meter-high wall with both feet, and then climbed the wall with both hands.

A puddle of blood remained in place, as well as a handful of hands and four elbow-sized butterfly wings.

Soon, the others who had not been able to jump up as fiercely as Elusa ran down the stairs to the scene of the incident. They see the same thing.

There was a night watchman, but it still happened.

Extremely angry, Mark roared, "Who is the successor? Stand up for me! ”

Soon, a tall, but cowering City Guard soldier came out of the crowd of onlookers.

"Did you see what that monster was?" Mark suppressed his anger and tried to keep his mind at ease.

The soldier did not hesitate: "A dragon!" A dragon without wings! There are four blue light insects flying around it, their whole body is gray and white, and their shoulders, tail, and head are blue! ”

The younger generation didn't know what the soldier was describing, but the older generation knew.

It was a star dragon that was famous for a while, and its reputation spread throughout the entire East Hured Empire!

The Star Dragon, which suddenly appeared twenty years ago, and then quickly disappeared from view, and its subspecies, the Star Dragon.

Although Mark hadn't seen the dragon with his own eyes, he had read a lot of rumors and books about it, especially the four huge blue insect wings left on the ground, which made him change from skeptical to skeptical.

"It's all gone!"

Mark waved his hand, although the soldiers were curious and angry with what monster had killed their brethren. However, he obeyed the order.

Seeing that the city guards were almost scattered, Rook also said to his teammates, "You go back to sleep first, and then teach me." ”

At this time, Rook was extremely serious, blocking the signs of their speech.

Soon, only four high-rise buildings remained at the site.

"Uncle Mark, what is the Scourge Star Dragon?" Soros suddenly called Mark with honor.

And Mark doesn't seem to hear Soros's honorific title: "Scourge Dragon, a monster that is recognized by the academic community as having disappeared." Its mysteries are unknown, and they appear and disappear suddenly. So much so that it is considered by people today to be a creature made up to deceive children. But in any case, it does exist and has appeared. And what we're facing now may be one. ”

The four of them fell silent, and the blood on the ground emitted a faint, disgusting smell of blood.

"Young City Lord, I suggest that a team be sent tomorrow to search for the traces of that Calamity Star Dragon. In any case, a dangerous, unknown creature hovering around us is really hard to sleep. Mark made a very pertinent suggestion.

"Yes." Soros approved.

Mark turned his head to Rook at this time, he seemed to remember the scene last night: "Facing the Scourge Star Dragon, I don't know if Luke you..."

"Cold lips and dead teeth, I know it. Tomorrow my hunting team will head outside as an independent scout team. Rook said.

Seeing that everyone is actively making their own arrangements for future crises, Elusa herself is not to be outdone.

"Then I'll go out for a walk tomorrow." Elusa said lightly, "But I need a partner." ”

Soros's eyes lit up: "Miss Elusa, it's better to..."

"Rook, how about I borrow someone from you tomorrow?" Elusa's voice interrupted Soros's hopes.

"If that person agrees, then whatever."
