Chapter 62: Decoy Tactics

Xia Di manipulated the Burst Flower Worm to move, causing it to crawl next to the corpse. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After confirming that the Bursting Flower Worm was in place, Xia Di hung the instrument on his belt, then walked over to the corpse and stripped off the clothes on the upper half of the corpse's body.

Kayilu stared at Xia Di with a strange expression, and asked in a weird manner, "Are you really ...... There is that kind of interest. ā€

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ That's weird! ā€

Xia Di replied angrily.

He hid the rebel's clothes in a large tree, and then he walked some distance from the corpse, pressed his hands to the ground, and injected magic into the ground......

"Is it difficult for you to do it...... Want? Kayilu saw his configuration and understood what he wanted to do in an instant.

……

A loud bang rang out.

Birds frightened.

In the vast forest, a dark cloud of smoke hung over the forest with a deafening explosion.

While on a search mission, the heavily armed rebel soldiers immediately noticed the vision and looked up in the direction of the source of the sound.

They were taken aback at the sight of smoke rising from somewhere.

It was a sign of the appearance of the enemy, and only the monsters they planted could create such an effect, and although they knew that it was almost impossible for the people who encountered the monsters to survive, they had to also confirm for themselves whether the enemy was dead or not.

"Those damn mercenaries, they're all wiped out now!"

"Haha, we've been looking for so long!"

The patrolmen, armed with steel weapons, gathered a large group of men and horses to rush in the direction of the explosion.

They made their way through patches of grass, trampled on the flowers, and finally reached the source of the sound, when suddenly some of them slipped and fell.

The soldier who fell to the ground looked at his feet in confusion.

I saw that the ground was covered with a layer of cold ice, and the blue and white frost shone in the sunlight.

They looked at the scene in confusion.

This land...... Why is it frozen?

They immediately realized that it was a masterpiece of magic, because it was autumn and it was impossible for snow to freeze.

But in this forest, there are only a handful of people who can use magic, excluding the [Ritual] and the mercenary group that is all warriors, there is only one person.

"Could it be that Lord Haig did it?!"

"Quick, go help!"

They quickly got up from the ground and continued to run.

Didn't run a few steps.

There were two humanoid char bodies on the ground in front of them.

No, that should be a corpse.

The corpse's face was nearly disfigured, and the upper half of its body was naked, as if it were some coincidence or bad taste, making it impossible for them to identify whether the deceased was the mercenary they were searching for.

Although it was said that their mission was to kill the enemy, the sight of the tragic situation in front of them still made some of them turn blue.

"Stay on guard!" The leader of the leading squad shouted.

The appearance of an unidentified corpse made the squad leader's heart vigilant.

Although judging from the scorched marks on the corpse, the deceased should not be his own person. Why, because each patrol squad has a prop to manipulate the Monster, and the possibility of being killed by the Monster by mistake is extremely small. But the fact that these corpses were not wearing recognizable clothing made one wonder if those damned mercenaries would take advantage of the deaths of their comrades and ambush them nearby, which is really hard to say.

The squad leader looked around, he suddenly noticed a large messy footprint on the ground, the number of people was not around ten, far more than the number of people they wanted to hunt down, he instantly understood, oh no, the other party had already run away, and was still being pursued by his own patrols, you must know that patrols are assigned in each area, but so far the soldiers in this area have disappeared without a trace, it seems that they are going to grab credit, so the squad leader immediately issued an order to his subordinates: "Listen, you guys hurry up and inform Lord Haig, Said that we have found a clue here, and now we are searching, and the rest of the people are going to search nearby according to my instructions, and they should not have run far. ā€

The rebel soldiers nodded and walked around.

……

Ten minutes later.

Hiding directly above the corpse, the girl and the young man on a large tree that flourished, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They hid in a big tree from the very beginning and only now climbed down.

"You're pretty smart about using the explosion to get their attention." Kayilu said in a surprised tone.

"After all, the enemy is in the dark, and we are also in the dark, since we don't know, we have no choice but to attack the east and west and lure them out."

Xia Di was also hiding in a tree, and he carefully looked down to make sure that the rebels had left before he dared to speak.

"By the way, why did you just put freezing magic on the ground? Is it a prank? Kayilu looked confused.

"Well...... It's kind of an insurance. Xia Di smiled mysteriously.

Seeing that the other side was selling Guanzi again, Kayilu didn't bother to talk to him, she turned her head to look at the silver light stone on her right palm, "What are we going to do next?" Where can I go to collect materials? ā€

"You guys go around to the northeast first, but there may be more demonic beasts in that area, so be careful." The mentor reminded.

After confirming the direction of progress, Xia Di and his party walked along the path where the patrol soldiers had just arrived, if the patrols were all concentrated in this vicinity, presumably other areas should be safe.

"Those patrols just now seem to have fifty or sixty people, just guarding this forest, don't you think the number is a bit too much?" After walking for a while, Kayilu suddenly asked, "If there are any patrols who haven't been attracted by us, there may be nearly a hundred, right?" ā€

"Yes......" Xia Di also thought it was strange.

Judging from the information given by the king's army, the demonic beasts that attacked the city probably emerged from this forest, that is, this forest is pregnant with so many demonic beasts, and it is very dangerous. Although the rebels claimed that they would be responsible for clearing out the demonic beasts, judging from the formation just now, it was obvious that they had sent so many people to patrol here to deal with the foreign invaders.

But what is their purpose? If you really just want to prevent the enemy from invading the territory, just open a line on the border of the forest. Why send troops into such a dangerous forest?

Not only that, but he also brought the props to control the demonic beasts, and transferred the blasting flower insects to this forest thousands of miles away.

It seems to cover up something.

Come to think of it.

Xia Di couldn't help but feel a headache.

However, since the girl in front of him asked a question, he couldn't assume that he didn't hear it.

"It's weird, indeed." Xia Di shrugged his shoulders and nodded, "But this has nothing to do with us, we just need to carry out our duties, you must not think about helping those mercenaries do good." The explosion just now had already helped them divert some of the enemies. ā€

"Why am I going to help them?" Kay glanced at Xia Di, "I'm just curious." ā€

"That's good."

After Xia Di had just killed the rebels, he had a wonderful feeling, his blood circulation accelerated, and his body became relaxed.

Xia Di knew that he had probably been promoted again, and in this world, it was called a new realm.

Although Erin may still say that he is at the 0.5 level, he feels that he should have officially stepped into the early level of the second order by now.

Therefore, if he really faced all the soldiers here, he would not be helpless.

It's just that the price to pay is too heavy, and Xia Di doesn't want to help the mercenaries do this.

Suddenly, the line of sight ahead widened.

I saw a stream appear in front of me, and the sound of running water came to my ears.

The rushing wind swept across the stream, rippling on the surface of the water, carrying a burst of water vapor to the face, which was refreshing.

"This place is ......" Xia Di was a little confused, and there didn't seem to be any mark on the map.

"Ansra River, coming here means you're close to the middle of the forest." The Silverstone came from the mentor's voice, "This is probably the place that provides water for the demonic beasts, so there is no record, you go over and put the Silverstone in the water, and I will detect the degree of filth." ā€

"Filth?"

"It is precisely because of filth in the world that demonic beasts will be produced, and evil hearts will produce demonic beasts." The tutor said lightly: "This is the literature handed down by the predecessors, of course, this is just a legend, but we can be sure that the body of the demonic beast will produce miasma, and the food or water source that they have touched will generally contain a trace amount of poison, and I want to detect this." ā€
