Chapter 177: The Centaur Coming Again
Chapter 177: The Centaur Who Came Again
Three days passed quickly, and with the hard work of Lawrence and other minotaurs digging the passage, the passage to Thunder Bluff was finally dug at noon the next day.
As soon as the passage was dug through, the Minotaur tribe began to pack up their belongings and prepare for relocation. However, due to the sheer size of the population and the need to act stealthily to avoid being discovered by the centaurs, the evacuation was carried out at night. The first to retreat were the female minotaurs and young calves, as well as various domesticated animals of the minotaurs.
Adult male minotaurs are armed to form a line of defense on the perimeter of the tribe, preventing the centaurs from noticing their dwindling tent numbers and noticing their migration.
The centaurs had just fought a big battle with the minotaurs, and the arrows and spears had been consumed, so there was no large group of centaurs in the Minotaur's field of vision for the next day, except for the sporadic centaurs who came to scout. Even the sporadic centaurs were watching from afar on the Minotaur's side.
The reason why the centaurs will send scouts to scout is also because robbing the minotaurs and the animals grazing by the minotaurs is an extremely important part of the centaur food source, the last time the minotaurs migrated and disappeared from the centaurs' sight, the centaur tribe's food suddenly began to be in short supply, and finally had to kill some of the old and weak centaurs to eat them to solve part of the crisis. So this time the centaurs wouldn't allow the minotaurs to disappear from their sight again.
And now, on the opposite side of the defense line composed of tens of thousands of minotaurs, more than 100,000 centaurs are once again ready to throw bows and arrows and throw spears and gallop wildly. Just like the one three days ago, the centaur was more than fifty meters away from the Minotaur's defense, and then began to unleash spell-like spells to protect itself. Then they began to run from left to right, shooting arrows in their hands. The minotaur also held up a huge shield made of wood in front of him.
It's just that unlike the last time, this time Vane and the others were not forced to watch the battle by the Minotaur Patriarch like the last time, and only had the opportunity to release a few spells at the end. This time, Barka was still in a firing state. Unlike centaurs and minotaurs, whose bows and arrows could only shoot fifty or sixty meters due to the barrenness of the land, the range of bows and arrows made by Barka far exceeded that of centaurs and minotaurs. If you use arcane shooting, you can accurately hit a target at a distance of 400 meters, and even if you don't use arcane shooting, you can shoot at a distance of 150 meters just by relying on the strength of the bow itself.
As soon as Barka shot a few arrows, Vane raised his hand to stop Barka from continuing to shoot and said, "Barka, you look for centaurs who are hiding in the distance and have distinctly different decorations on their bodies to shoot, especially those centaurs who give orders. ”
"Why?" Although Barka asked Venn why, he had already begun to do what Vane said.
Vane did this because he wanted to paralyze the centaur command, after all, it was more than 100,000 centaurs, and there must be a lot of centaurs who played the role of command, as long as these centaurs who were just to convey instructions were eliminated, there would be a certain amount of chaos in the centaurs' actions. That's right, right? Before Vane could tell Barka why, Anna had already opened her mouth to explain it to Barka. In the end, he asked Vane for confirmation.
"Yes, that's it." Vane listened to Anna's words and nodded in affirmation of her statement.
After listening to Anna's words, it dawned on Barka that he understood the usefulness of doing so. At the same time, Kalia, who was casting a healing spell on the nearby minotaur who was shot by a bow and arrow, also showed a sudden expression, it seemed that not all of her attention was focused on casting spells, and some of her attention was also focused on the situation on Vane's side.
In just a few minutes, hundreds of arrows had been shot in Barka's hands, and the centaur team finally showed an extremely inconspicuous inconvenience, which could not cause any trouble to the centaurs, and even the centaurs and minotaurs who were shooting at each other did not notice this situation, that is, Vane had been focusing on this aspect, so he was able to detect this inconvenience.
With this discovery, Vane immediately pulled out several scrolls from the scroll pack that had never been used much, and instantly activated the scrolls: Fury Fury, Bloodlust, Recklessness, Bloody Fury, Anger Burning, Life Burning, etc......
With the release of Vane's spell, the centaurs who were shrouded in the spell were originally very violent and bloodthirsty, and their hearts were suddenly filled with anger, and their not much reason was immediately overwhelmed by the furious anger. But before the centaurs could make any moves, Vane's next spell came again: Vane's channeling spell.
This spell is not of much use in normal times, it is just used to guide creatures who have no reason or little intelligence to do what Vane thinks and asks.
It was only at this time that Vane simply drew the attention of these centaurs, who had been overwhelmed by anger, to the people who were still shooting around them.
Suddenly, the centaurs, who had lost their senses, looked at their people with red eyes. Then he screamed and drew the throwing gun from his back and threw it at the centaurs who were shooting, and rushed up to fight the centaurs, seriously blocking the way for the centaurs to shoot. As a result, all the centaurs had to stop shooting, and for a while the centaur troops didn't know what to do, which they had never encountered before, which made them extremely uncomfortable.
When such a sudden situation occurred, the Minotaur patriarch immediately seized the opportunity to give orders. As the patriarch of a primitive tribe, although he has no lofty knowledge, he is still extremely accurate in grasping the timing of battle. At his command, the Minotaur suddenly charged.
The commander of the centaur side was not stupid, and when he saw a group of centaurs suddenly go crazy, he immediately ordered a retreat so that he could regroup and attack the minotaurs.
At this time, the original inflexibility was infinitely magnified in this incomparably chaotic situation. Centaurs' instructions are disconnected in many places, making it impossible to convey them accurately, quickly, and effectively.
This gives the Minotaur an advantage in time. It wasn't until the minotaurs rushed up to the centaurs that the chaotic centaurs galloped away from the minotaurs under the control of habit and instinct.
