Chapter 467: Noxian Scouts and Demacian Army (Part II)
After killing the scout leader of Noxus, Parker quickly removed a cylinder from his waist, and when he opened it, a map slid out, and due to the tight seal, even if the team leader rolled in the muddy water a few times, there was no sign of water entering. Parker www.biquge.info glanced back at the swamp monitor lizard, which was not far away, and knew that he didn't have time to chase the others, so he quickly ran forward.
Swamp monitor lizards are one of the most fearsome killers in swamps, often hiding in dead grass and muddy water, making it difficult to spot, and will launch a surprise attack when their prey comes close. It's just that this kind of lizard generally doesn't chase its prey, because although their explosive power is very strong, their staying power is not very good, and they are not suitable for long-distance pursuit, but I don't know what the Noxian scout team leader sprinkled on himself that actually attracted these swamp killers to chase after them.
At this point, Parker finally learns the difference between the Noxian soldiers and the Demacian soldiers. Demacia's army was all about cooperation, and there was a deep friendship between comrades, and if the enemy killed one of his robes, the whole squad would rush to avenge him. The soldiers of Noxus are cold-blooded and cruel, they take completing the task as their first priority, even if their captain is in a desperate situation, the team members will give up decisively when they know that they cannot be rescued, and the captain of the team will not be resentful, but will create a chance for the members of his team to escape. These two types of soldiers cannot be said to be good or bad, but if it is about cooperation, then it is obviously Demacia who is better, because the comrades-in-arms are very closely connected. However, in terms of efficiency, it is the Noxus military who has a slight advantage. Demacia's army was either completely victorious or annihilated, and deserters rarely appeared, but Noxus scattered and withdrew knowing that it could not be won.
Parker's previous knowledge of the Noxus army was limited to books, but this time he experienced it himself, but his own feelings were not good. The swamp monitor lizards behind him were getting closer and closer, and the big creatures were moving very fast in the muddy water, and Parker knew that he couldn't get rid of them without killing them all.
Soon, Parker saw a small clearing, it was a gravel field, if it was somewhere else, it was nothing special, but in the swamp, it meant that it was a safe place, it should be a fixed camp in the swamp, for passing merchants to camp for the night, and this hard ground was the best environment to deal with these swamp monitor lizards.
"My lord, there is no news from Lord Parker, should we expand the search?" A scout from Demacia reported to Tony. This is the third group of scouts sent by Tony, since they have now entered the control area of Noxus, so he does not dare to make too much noise, and at the same time, he must leave enough people to guard the camp, these people are already the limit of what he can send, but unfortunately, there is no news at all.
"No, you just need to leave a mark on the road, I think Master Parker will find it himself, and also, always keep an eye on the movements of Noxus, and once you find a small force in Noxus, come back and report it immediately, and don't let them find out our whereabouts." Tony said as he rubbed his head.
"Yes, sir." After the scout left, Tony stood up and glanced at the surrounding scenery, which was familiar to him, and it was not uncommon for him to be in the control area of Noxus, but it was the first time that he had been so aggrieved this time.
Suddenly, Tony saw a circle of ripples on the surface of the water not far away, and there were no large creatures nearby, and no one was running nearby, so the sudden appearance of ripples only proved one thing, there was a battle going on nearby, and the aftermath of the battle had reached here.
Tony didn't care about the dirt on the ground, and just lay on the ground, listening intently. He is not Parker, he is afraid of dirt in the swamp, so the best way is not to enter the swamp, otherwise, no one can escape the fate of the mud all over his body.
"My lord, what's wrong?" Tony's actions immediately alarmed everyone, and the Demacian soldiers, who had been resting, immediately entered a state of combat readiness, and the ranks were lined up in an instant, ready to meet the enemy.
"It's a herd, but it's not coming from us." Tony explained, but there was no sign of ease. Although the herd did not rush in their direction, they were not fully numerous, and this kind of herd migration is not common in the swamp, so there was only one possibility, someone was attracting the herd, and Tony suspected that the target of the herd was Parker.
"Order, everyone stay put, the guards come with me." After Tony finished speaking, he ran in the direction of the beast herd with his personal guard. For the beasts in the swamp, Tony never dared to underestimate it, because it was like a bottomless pit, as long as you started, you couldn't stop, because after you thought that after killing a batch, the bloody gas would attract more beasts, so for those arrogant guys who have strong self-sustaining strength and are entering the swamp for the first time, there are almost no ones who can leave alive when they encounter the beasts. This is also the reason why Tony is in a hurry, even at the expense of the main general to break away from the team, to save Parker before he is deep in it.
"My lord, in front, it's a swamp monitor lizard." One of the guards pointed to an open space in front of him. At this time, Parker's figure was already looming, like a fortress, standing in a clearing to keep all the monitor lizards out, among them, several monitor lizards had fallen under Parker's sword, and the blood stained several small pools red.
"Luckily, it's not too late, and the other herds haven't arrived yet." Tony was also relieved to see Parker's situation, at least they found out in time, so that things have not reached the point of no return.
"Go, you lure the monitor lizards on the periphery away, and then go straight back to the camp to meet." Tony commanded the guards, and without any hesitation, the guards rushed directly towards the monitor lizards, and after smearing some medicinal powder on their bodies, they really lured many swamp monitor lizards away.
Seeing that most of the swamp monitor lizards had left, Tony rushed forward with his rifle and killed the few remaining monitor lizards as soon as he came up. Then, he took out a packet of medicinal powder and sprinkled it on all the blood stains, and soon, the originally pungent bloody gas gradually disappeared, and if it weren't for the corpses of several monitor lizards around, no one would have known that a big battle had just taken place here.
