Chapter Seventy-Seven: Loss
A dazzling huge orange-red fireball appeared on the inside of the mountain pass parapet on the north side of the Earth Dragon Valley.
Covering his blind eyes, Meng Chen scolded secretly: "Hold the grass!" When a fierce beast dies, it actually blows itself up? ”
When the orange-red flame gradually extinguished, a huge pit appeared at the location of the flamemane lion with a diameter of more than ten meters and a depth of one and a half meters.
The pit as a whole has a charred block structure, and there is a faint dark red lava stream rolling in the center.
All the soldiers within the range of the Flamemane Lion's self-detonation had now turned into piles of charred wreckage, and even their armor and shields had been melted by the heat.
Meng Chen immediately ordered the battlefield to be cleaned up and the wounded soldiers were sent to the hospital for treatment.
The casualty data was quickly counted, with five elite archers dead, fifteen sword and shield warriors and twenty-seven elite swordsmen dead, and seven sword and shield warriors and sixteen elite swordsmen seriously injured.
A hundred sword and shield warriors and elite swordsmen were ordered to stop the half-crippled Flamemane Lion, and the casualty ratio was as high as 60 out of 5!
What made Meng Chen's heart hurt even more was that most of these dead sword and shield warriors and elite swordsmen couldn't even find their bodies.
"I don't know if burying the ashes in the cemetery can recover the soul power points?"
Meng Chen shook his head helplessly, came to Alfred's side, and asked with concern, "Alfred, how are you?" ”
Alfred stood up with difficulty, tapped his right fist on his left chest and said, "Lord Lord, your subordinates are fine!" It's just a little bit of detachment, and you can recover it slowly. ”
"Whew~!"
Meng Chen exhaled and nodded, "It's okay!" ”
。。。。。。
When the flame-maned lion blew itself up, Niu Hao and the others, who were on the dirt slope five or six hundred meters away, saw all this clearly.
At this time, Niu Hao frowned and stared at the inside of the parapet without saying a word.
Niu Jing and the other scalper cavalry still couldn't believe that the Flamemane Lion had been killed by the Ocellells of the Earth Dragon Valley in just a quarter of an hour.
"Second uncle, those Ocellells are really powerful! This flame-maned lion was the strongest beast that could be found within forty or fifty miles of the vicinity. I didn't expect it to be so simple...... Death at the hands of the Otera people! Niu Jing said with a shocked face.
Niu Hao sighed, "This flame-maned lion has reached the peak of a low-level fierce beast, and it will be able to be promoted to a middle-level fierce beast in another evil moon period. That Othello man could fight the Flaming Mane Lion for so long...... I'm not as good as him! ”
"So what are we going to do?" Niu Jing asked a little dejectedly.
After a moment of silence, Niu Hao said in a deep voice: "That Ocellell man, it doesn't seem to be in a good state!" Let's go up and find out the situation, and if he's really seriously injured, then take the opportunity to kill him!" ”
After speaking, Niu Hao led five ox cavalry and galloped towards the north mountain pass wall.
。。。。。。
Just as Meng Chen was directing the soldiers to clean up the huge pit, there was a sound of scalpers galloping in the distance.
The archer on the guard tower immediately shouted at Meng Chen: "Lord Lord, there are scalper cavalry approaching!" ”
When Meng Chen heard this, he scolded: "Damn Barbarian Cow Village, is it really easy to bully Lao Tzu?" Shoot...... Shoot these bastards! ”
The shooters on the five guard towers, after receiving Meng Chen's order, immediately shot arrows at Niu Hao and the others.
Niu Hao and the five scalper knights tightened their mounts and stopped three hundred meters away from the parapet wall, which was on the edge of the range, and it was difficult for the arrows to pose a threat to them.
Driving his mount a few steps forward, Niu Hao shouted in the direction of the parapet, "Who is in charge of the Oseriels?" Would you like to come out and answer? ”
After hearing Niu Hao's shout, Meng Chen looked puzzled and said, "Huh? What the hell are the people of Manniu Village doing? ”
Ordering the shooters to stop shooting, Meng Chen climbed the lookout tower and shouted at Niu Hao, "The people of Oseril can't speak Southern Xinjiang. The Archon has asked me to pass on the message that the people of Ocellell will always remember this day's feud! ”
"Humph!"
Niu Hao snorted coldly and said loudly: "You brought it on yourself!" Half a month ago, my second uncle, third brother, and nephew were never heard from after entering the Dilong Valley. But the Otera people held them captive? ”
"In the past month, there have been absolutely no outsiders in the Earth Dragon Valley, you are in the wrong place!" Meng Chen flatly denied it.
When Niu Hao heard this, his face became ugly, and he secretly said in his heart: "It seems that the second uncle, third brother and Zhang'er have probably been killed." Ocellreans...... Damn it! ”
After a moment of silence, Niu Hao asked in a deep voice: "I don't believe what you say!" Is the commander of the Othello willing to come out and confront him? ”
"Confronted? Hehe! Meng Chen secretly sneered.
Afterwards, Meng Chen shouted at Niu Hao, "Since you don't believe it, Lord Commander invites Your Excellency to enter the Earth Dragon Valley. The Archon will prove it to you himself! ”
After speaking, Meng Chen ordered the soldiers to push the gate of the parapet open.
Facing the open parapet gate, Niu Hao seemed very entangled, wanting to break into the Dilong Valley, but he was worried that there were traps inside.
"Second uncle, you can't go! There must be a catch! Niu Jing said anxiously.
After hesitating for a moment, Niu Hao sighed and gave up the idea of venturing into the Earth Dragon Valley.
Seeing that Niu Hao didn't speak for a long time, Meng Chen mocked: "Why don't you reply?" Don't you dare? ”
Niu Hao replied indifferently: "The matter of my second uncle, third brother and nephew will not pass so easily!" ”
After speaking, Niu Hao led five ox cavalry, turned around and galloped away.
After Niu Hao and the others left, Meng Chen's face gradually became gloomy, "Manniu Village, this account ...... Let's take it slowly! ”
Counting the soldiers who were killed by the white-haired old man that night.
In this half a month, Manniu Village directly or indirectly led to the death of eighty-three soldiers in the City of Hope.
Among them, there are fifty-one soldiers of the second rank and thirty-two soldiers of the third order.
This level of loss can be said to be very painful for the current City of Hope.
Meng Chen was already planning in his heart to carry out a retaliatory action against Manniu Village.
Before that, though, Meng Chen had to perfect the City of Hope's defensive circle.
The current City of Hope doesn't even have a city wall, and if Meng Chen and Alfred leave, any beast that breaks into the core city can cause a devastating disaster.
Of course, there is another embarrassing problem, that is, Meng Chen has not known the specific location of Manniu Village so far!
It is quite embarrassing to want to take revenge on the enemy, but not find the enemy's lair.
Just as Meng Chen was holding back his stomach and brewing a means of revenge, a soldier standing in the center of the pit shouted at Meng Chen, "Lord Lord, there is a strange thing here!" ”
Meng Chen walked to the pit curiously, and said secretly: "What strange thing?" ”
