Chapter 35: Preparing for the Raid
After 4 hours of traveling, Chen Zhuo and the others finally arrived at the Storm Mine Cave under the Storm Cliff before dusk, and Colin formulated the tactic of this time to rest in the Wind Mine Cave for 8 hours, and raid the "Black Fang" secret base on the Wind Cliff in the middle of the night. Marcus is the most survivable in the wild, and the easiest to find out about it, so Colin sends him to scout the route on the cliffs; The rest of the people began to pitch their tents outside the mine, but the natural obstacles near the mine blocked the view from the cliffs, and Colin entered the tent in order of night duty. Due to the limited space, only five tents were set up, and all the retinue slept with their own braves. Marcus's retinue is a parrot and there is nothing going on; Suzanne is also a girl, so it doesn't matter if she sleeps in a tent with her retinue; Both Colin and Brewster are used to living in a tent with their female retinue, except that Colin often takes silver attendants out on missions. But when it comes to Chen Zhuo, there is a big problem! It was the first time Avril had shared a tent with a man other than her brother, and the tent was not large, with the mattresses of the two men close together. Chen Zhuo pretended to be very calm and said to Avril: "Although it is not dark, let's go to bed early, and we have to get up at night to be on duty, there will be a fierce battle in the early hours of tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes, Master Chen." Avril lay down with her back to Chen Zhuo, and although Chen Zhuo did not lean towards Avril's side, Avril still squeezed into the corner of the tent. Chen Zhuo looked very funny, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only silently close his eyes and let himself find a suitable state to fall asleep quickly. However, although Chen Zhuo was already very tired when he was in a hurry, he was not sleepy at all.
Chen Zhuo couldn't sleep, so he planned to talk to Avril, so he called softly, "Avril, have you slept?" ”
Avril heard Chen Zhuo call her, subconsciously turned around, and saw Chen Zhuo looking at her lying together, and her face turned red when she brushed it: "Master Chen, is there something wrong?" ”
"It's nothing, are you sleeping, if you can't sleep, just chat with me."
"What does Master Chen want to talk about?"
"Have you heard anything about your brother lately? It seems like it's been a long time since I've heard of your brother's letter. ”
Speaking of Anderson, Avril's attention was slowly diverted, and she said slowly: "The last time my brother wrote was half a month ago, and at that time, he had already arrived in the Eastern Kingdom. ”
"Eastern Kingdoms?! Sounds like a long way away! ”
"Yes, if you make a goblin airship, it will take about a day." The speed of the goblin airship is very fast, comparable to the speed of the plane on the earth, the area of the ocean is large, I heard that a large whirlpool was found in the middle of the ocean, what exactly is it like Chen Zhuo wanted to take a look, and Chen Zhuo of the Eastern Kingdom also wanted to take a walk, and learned that Avril originally lived on the continent of the Eastern Kingdom, Chen Zhuo began to ask a lot of things about the Eastern Kingdom, Avril had questions and answers, and slowly the sky darkened.
The bonfire outside the tent made Chen Zhuo realize that it was late, and said to Avril with a smile: "Avril, let's talk about it today, if we don't sleep, we won't be able to participate in the battle in the early hours of tomorrow." ”
Avril nodded, not squeezing further into the tent, but also turned her back to Chen Zhuo. Chen Zhuo smiled, lay on his back in the tent and fell asleep after a while.
Chen Zhuo was assigned to the last vigil, in front of him was the glacier priest Susanna, Chen Zhuo was called up by Susanna's entourage, and when he walked out of the tent, Suzanne had already entered his tent, Chen Zhuo walked to the bonfire, saw that there were still some dead branches and leaves on the ground, so he casually picked up a branch and threw it into the bonfire, and the branches were crackled by the flames. Avril rubbed her eyes and walked out of the tent, Chen Zhuo saw it and said, "Avril, you go back to sleep, it's just a vigil, I'll be alone." ”
"It's okay with Lord Chen, I'm almost asleep." Avril rubbed her eyes again and sat down opposite Chen Zhuo. Chen Zhuo thought for a moment and asked Avril, "Where did we talk before we went to bed?" ”
Under the guidance of Chen Zhuo's mouth, the two chatted happily, bonfires, mountains and forests, mining caves, nights, so many environments and Avril Lavigne chatted is also a good experience, chatting for about a long time, Chen Zhuo touched his stomach, took out a food bag from the tent, handed Avril a peach, and took out a chicken leg himself: "After talking for so long, I'm hungry, come on, Avril, let's talk while eating." ”
Avril smiled, took the peaches handed over by Chen Zhuo, and swallowed them one by one.
Chen Zhuo said while eating: "I don't know if we have such a bonfire here, the 'black teeth' on the cliff can be seen or not." ”
"This location is right on the other side of the 'Black Fang' base, not to mention the bonfire, they can't see the light, this is the place where Marcus has been observing for a long time and found his foot!" Chen Zhuo followed the voice and saw Colin and his entourage walking out of the tent.
"Huh? Captain? Don't sleep anymore? ”
"Haha, no need, I'm very energetic, it should be light in another hour, now this time is the time when werewolves are most tired, the raid effect must be good!" Colin said as he slapped in front of each tent with his attendants, telling the rest of the people to get up. Chen Zhuo saw that he quickly nibbled on the chicken legs, wiped his hands, and prepared for the next raid mission.
After about ten minutes, everyone came out of the tent, Colin counted the number of people, said a few words, extinguished the bonfire, and led by Marcus and Charles, Chen Zhuo and Suzanne in the center, Colin and Brewster in the back, and the group began the road up the mountain.
The wind cliff was not steep, but it was very windy, and it was fine at night, but in another hour the wind should get stronger, and the group walked along the road up the mountain for about half an hour before reaching the top of the mountain, where they saw a few stone houses and some fires on the other side of the cliff. Marcus had done reconnaissance before, pointed to the room and said: "That is the base of the 'Black Fang', it seems that the 'Black Fang' is ready to give up this base, all the supplies are outside the house, and there are very few people, there are only about 9 werewolves, the specific strength will not exceed the 3rd order, the largest room seems to be inhabited by some big people, I wanted to get close to it several times, but I was hindered by the heavily guarded sentry." ”
Colin took a closer look at the terrain and asked, "Is there a retreat around the base?" ”
"On the other two sides of the base are canyons, and there is no way back, but it is diagonally opposite us, probably ...... There! Marcus pointed to a large rock, "There is a trail on the other side of the rock where it is possible to descend the mountain."
"Marcus, how long will it take you to get to that trail?"
"You can't get through here, and if you go around it, it will take about a quarter of an hour."
"Okay, Marcus, you can go to that trail and deploy some traps, five minutes is enough? We're attacking from here in about twenty minutes, and you're intercepting over there, is the road rough in the past? Can you bring Brewster with you? ”
Marcus waved his hand: "No need, I'll climb directly from the cliff below, Brewster will definitely not be able to pass, I can save my life by myself over there, don't forget that I am a survival hunter, five minutes is enough time for me to set a trap for them to destroy the group!" ”
"Good! Without further ado, you go over now and be careful yourself! ”
"No problem!"
After Marcus left, Colin continued: "Wait for us to sneak in, don't alarm the enemy if we can, and after quietly assassinating the two guards, Brewster and I will be in a group, Chen, Susanna, and Charles, you will be in a group of three, we will go into the stone house from both sides to deal with those werewolves, and once we wake them up, we will gather in the middle." ”
The four nodded, ready for the assault.
About twenty minutes later, as the two guards were assassinated by Colin and Brewster, Chen Zhuo and the others entered the battle spirit and announced the start of the raid. Chen Zhuo directly gave the magic crystal to Avril, and after Avril got the magic crystal, she gave Charles a blessing, Charles was stunned for a moment, cracked his mouth and said to Chen Zhuo with a big smile: "Brother Chen, your entourage is not ordinary, you added two points of health to me when you came up." Chen Zhuo smiled and responded, and thought silently in his heart: "Fortunately, it's two points of health, if you add a little spell damage, you can cry slowly!" ”
