Chapter 56: The Gnolls

After all four of them had gone up to the pit, they began to set up camp. While the other three were busy camping, they stood on the edge and looked into the swamp.

Sure enough, less than two hundred meters away from them, a tribal camp of gnolls appeared there, and what caught Vane's attention the most was that these gnolls not only had weapons and shields in their hands, but also wore armor on their bodies. Dozens of vehicles have been dismantled to pieces, many of which have been used as dry firewood. On the ground, a large amount of silk cloth imported from Quel'Salas, which is unusually expensive in human society, was casually thrown aside.

On the campfire in the center of the camp, what appeared to be a human being was being barbecued. Not far away, on the ground, there were stripped corpses of humans, waiting to be strung up and put on fire.

Vane looked farther away, where there was nothing bare, and it was not clear whether it was the gnolls who attacked the caravan or something else that had taken advantage of it, but anyway, the pot had been completely buckled on the gnolls. It's just that the gnolls don't care.

Although the gnolls are more intelligent than the fishmen, they are still in a primitive tribal state, and anything they can catch will become their food, regardless of whether the other party is a sapient creature or not. So even if there is no such thing, usually speaking, as long as you encounter the gnoll tribe, you will sweep the gnolling tribe away.

"Kid Wayne, what are you looking at?" After camping, Walker saw Vane standing on the side and looking into the distance, so he walked to Vane's side, and looked in the direction of Vane by picking up the rocks on the edge, and then he saw the situation of the gnoll tribe, so he shouted, "I knew it was these damn gnolls." However, they did not expect to camp so close to this road, and it seems that we must destroy this tribe of gnolls. ”

"yes, but we'll have to find a way to kill them safely. You must know that there are nearly thirty of them, and our side is obviously not strong enough. Vane listened to Walker's words and nodded in agreement. For these gnolls, whether they are high elves or dwarves or humans, no race will leave them behind, as long as they are found and have the ability, they will definitely be cleaned up.

The reason why the various races are like this is because of the racial habit of the gnolls to eat everything. In the world of Azeroth, gnolls and trolls are in fact a treat.

"Well, thirty is a lot, but if it's four or five, it's fine." Walker scratched his head, there was no good way in his heart, and after looking at it for a while, Walker suddenly said to Vane: "Either we wait, there will always be a caravan coming, and then we will find those caravans to join forces to clean up these damn gnolls." ”

"That's a good idea, but I'd better wait until I'm going to check it out in the evening." Vane listened to Walker's words, thought for a moment and said.

"You're going to go over at night? You know, it's very dangerous at night in the swamp. As soon as Walker heard Vane's words, he immediately persuaded.

"Rest assured, no creature will run to find the dead from those gnolls camp." Vane shook his head and explained.

"Why don't I come with you?" Seeing that Vane had made up his mind to take a look, Walker proposed.

"No, myself." Vane shook his head to reject Walker's proposal, and then explained, "A person's words are small and not easy to detect. ”

"Well, you're always right. Then we'll wait for you here, and if you haven't come back for too long, I'll go find you. Walker then sighed and said to Vane.

Now that the inspection was done, Vane went back to the tent to rest, and before going inside, he said to the other three, "You guys can eat the food we brought with us today, it's a bit dangerous to go out and find food now, I'll rest first." ”

With that, Vane lay down on the made bed, then closed his eyes and canceled a few spells that he had memorized and replaced them with the spells he needed to use at night. After the spell model was built, Vane, who had consumed a lot of mental power, lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

At night, due to their location, the three of Walker did not arrange a vigil. The light from the campfire was blocked by the edges of the four sides of the hollow, and only a crack facing the mountain could not be seen at all. Therefore, it doesn't matter much if there are no people who don't arrange a vigil.

Vane woke up from his sleep and looked at his spell slot and found that all spells had been restored. So he crawled out of the tent with his feet, and then removed the burden from his body, and took the things that he had to bring with him. Silently lying down the mountain wall, he sneaked towards the camp of the gnolls who had been inspected during the day.

When they came to the location of the gnolls camp, these gnolls were already asleep, and only a few of them were walking back and forth in the camp, and as long as they found something abnormal, they would directly shout to wake up all the gnolls in the camp.

Vane made a big circle, sneaking into the grass not far from the gnolls, and carefully looked at the positions of the awake gnolls. The gnolls have a very sensitive sense of smell, and if Vane wants to find an opportunity nearby, he must go downwind, otherwise the smell on his body will definitely be smelled by the gnolls' nose. When the time comes, it will be dead.

Looking at the sleeping gnolls in the camp, Vane found that some of the leftover human corpses were being placed more than ten meters in front of him, and perhaps he could use the poison that was bought with the paprika he bought together, and sprinkle these colorless and odorless poisons on the corpses that were eaten by the gnolls, thinking that these gnolls could be easily removed.

However, although he was only more than ten meters away from Vane, he had no way to get even a little closer, and if he dared to go a little further, he would definitely be discovered, and when the time came, it would be Vane himself who would become food. But that's okay, although you can't get close, but Vane has a spell, doesn't he? Back in the daytime, Vane had all the spells he might have to use at night.

For example, the reason why Vane was able to get so close without being detected was because he used a spell to eliminate the sound he produced. This spell Vane is called: Vane's Silent Technique. It was a simple trick that Vane had developed on his own, based on the two tricks of illusion and the silent portal.

Now, Vane is using the hand of the famous Wizard Mage. I saw that he first took out a small package from his chest, and then opened it to reveal a crystal clear white powder. Vane used the mage's hand to gently pinch a little, and then, under Vane's control, scattered evenly all over the human corpses in the distance, in order to ensure that the amount of poison was large enough, Vane used half of it, which can poison at least a hundred gnolls.

After doing all this, Vane returned to the mountain wall lightly and silently, and all that remained was to wait until after dawn to check on the situation.
