Act Twenty-Three Expansion

Antitina listened to the faint sound of birds flapping their wings in the distant forest, and for a moment she couldn't help but feel a little creepy.

Juta stood beside her, and for a moment the two ladies, one older and one younger, stood a little silent on the wooden wall, facing the cold moonlight.

Who knows what kind of danger lurks in the dark? She could imagine the cavemen leaping through the forest - they strode forward, their heavy steps 'crackling' and cracking on the dry pine branches, and soon emerged from the swarthy forest and surrounded the lumberyard.

The troglodytes had appeared from the direction of Mount Grahar from the very beginning, and there were about thirty of them, no different from the afternoon group. The mercenaries sent scouts were clearly no match for them, but luckily the mercenary captain had already taken this into account, and she sent cavalry, so she could at least get out of the forest.

The cavemen were biting at the small group of cavalry in the back, knowing that the humans would retreat to the lumberyard, and if the humans in the lumberyard opened the gate to meet their kind, they would have a chance to take advantage of the chaos.

But Yuta naturally didn't make such a low-level mistake, and she immediately asked the mercenary crossbowmen on the wooden fortress on the outskirts of the lumberyard to stop the cavemen with a rain of arrows, while allowing her to open the gate to let the cavalry outside.

The crossbowmen released the bowstring pressed against the crossbow, and a line of white threads shot out from the wooden fortress on the outskirts of the lumberyard.

The uniformly aligned bolts were like an invisible whip whipped across the cavemen's formations, smashing them to pieces. But the actual power was questionable, and Antitina saw the cavemen who had been shot and fell to the ground get up again, and only five or six actually fell.

She couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Although she had fought with these creatures from the underground of Jogandigang in the afternoon, she was in the back with Roman at that time, and it was far less real than what she saw now.

In any case, after discovering that there was no chance to take advantage of it, the cavemen quickly retreated after leaving five or six corpses.

"It's a scout." The mercenary leader stared in the direction of the forest where the cavemen had retreated, confirming this.

"Then these are the first trowells to appear since the afternoon," Antitina whispered, "if they weren't assembled, these may have been troglodytes from the nearest sawmill, and they don't seem to have gathered." ”

"How do you know?" Juta turned around, the little girl had been asking her just now, but had come to her conclusion so quickly.

"The guide who brought it from Fir City said that it would take nearly half a day to get here from the horseshoe sawmill and even ride through the forest on horseback." She said of course, "I can see that the cavemen before were not as fast as the horses." ”

"Vanguard." Jutta replied.

"They probably know that there aren't many of us." Antitina replied, "There are so many runs in the afternoon, it is impossible to hide your strength. ”

However, the two obviously did not dwell on this matter, but they didn't have to think about it to know that they had no chance to keep each other in the afternoon; In fact, if it weren't for Brando's tactics, their victory would have been a bit incredible.

But the two soon stopped talking.

For when they found the troglodyte scouts retreating, their vanguard quickly came out of the forest on the other side—about a hundred troglodytes walked out of the forest along the river beach—and remained parallel to the timber wall on the perimeter of the lumberyard.

"What are they doing?"

A face thrust in between the two, and Miss Merchant's widening eyes were like a pair of brilliant black gems, and she blinked, leaning against the female wall, staring curiously at the long line of cavemen outside.

"Surround here," Antitina frowned, "Looks like they're going to wait here for the other cavemen from the lumberyard to come and meet." ”

"Are you ignored by the other party? Hmph" Yuta looked at the long snake formation of the cavemen on the river beach, and was a little nervous: "Do you want to let the tiger sparrow lead the cavalry to rush?" ”

She thought that if she opened the door at this time and went out, she would definitely take a big advantage.

But the aristocratic daughter watched the caveman slowly move forward along the river beach, turning the lumberyard into an island little by little, and said in her heart that it was impossible to be nervous. However, she still calmed down and shook her head: "No need. ”

"Huh?"

"If they are going to encircle, at least it means that they will attack for a while and a half, isn't that exactly what we expect?"

"Weaken the opponent a little bit, and it will be easier to defend for a while," Yutado glanced at Antitina, and the opponent's composure and calmness left a strange impression on her - but the mercenary leader immediately shook her head: "But it's also true, we may have to face a thousand or more of these guys in a while, more than a hundred or less a hundred is indeed not a zài, and even this point of people we are not sure to wipe out the other party......"

She said to herself as if she were convincing herself.

Antitina didn't answer, but thought to herself: a thousand? She shook her head secretly, and Brando told her that there were more than three thousand or more cavemen in the area.

But the more they numbered, the slower they were to assemble, and she estimated that the cavemen on the outskirts of the lumberyard were likely to be more than half as many as they attacked in the middle of the night. All that's left is to hope that the other side is not good at fighting tough battles in the surface world as Brando said.

She looked a little nervous, but on the other hand, Brando had never said anything big.

The silver moon rose and rose between the mountains.

As the moonlight fills the valley, Brando finally discovers his goal. He narrowed his eyes and saw the skinny caveman witch doctor surrounded by several tall bear goblins among the cavemen. Although they disappeared into the crowd in an instant, he had already made a note of the approximate location of each other.

It's just after midnight.

He immediately untapped the 'Richard's Bazaar' card, then tapped it again, and 6 fortunes went into the treasure. After doing this, he looked down once again at the trolodytes gathered in the silvery valley below—they were staggeringly numerous, and they were divided into three groups—and he guessed that at least half of the troglodytes in this area were stationed beneath the lumberyard.

Looking at the dense spear, Brando couldn't help but frown.

The bad news was that he and Akane had to find a target in this army, and even though both of them had the strength of the Golden Order, it was still a bit of a fantasy to be able to move freely among hundreds or thousands of creatures with Black Iron Rank.

The good news is that it's at least easier than going around in circles through the underground tunnels dug by the crooked cavemen, and Brando had a time when he and his fellow players in the game were as unthinking as Akane was to kill them; The difference is that now he has to stop the red-haired girl, but there was no one to stop them then-

Of course, the result was that I got lost in it for almost a week.

He stood up and waved to Akane, who was sitting on the side, bored.

"Follow me."

"Did it?" The red-haired girl was stunned.

Brando nodded.

The two slid silently down the hillside, their silhouettes obscured by the dense growth of the Quechio trees - though this was redundant - the cavemen did not rely on sight, and their keen hearing allowed them to catch the slightest human footsteps from hundreds of meters away.

It's just that it's just for ordinary people.

When Brando and Akane emerge from the forest one after the other, the first to notice them are a few bear goblins on the edge. The big men with the flail were visibly taken aback when they saw the man and woman, they had rarely experienced such a situation, and at first they had spent a moment trying to figure out how to deal with the situation in their limited brain capacity, but then immediately let out a low roar.

The roar then spread throughout the valley.

'Choked-'

Brando's sword sliced the meteor hammer that was tumbling towards him in half, and he tilted his head slightly to let the weapons fly past him.

Then he raised his head again: presumably realizing that his attack had not worked and guessing the strength of the other party, the caveman and the bear goblin were in a commotion in his field of vision. Messages spread like a plague among these strange creatures, but it takes time for the message to be delivered, and it takes even more time for the reaction.

But Brando had already calculated the distance between him and the caveman witch doctor, and with a flick of the middle finger of his left hand on the blade, he flattened the sword and pulled a long silver line straight from left to right.

The wind pressure came out of its blade, and it first passed over the bears and goblins—like the wheat stubble left behind after a scythe—and the big guys fell like vulnerable scarecrows, and all of them cut off, and the blood was out.

Even swept down a large troglodyte behind it.

This blow frightened these creatures from the underground, although the division of strength between Qiaogendigang and the surface world is different, but the power of the first order of gold is enough to have a deterrent effect no matter where it is. The cavemen immediately let out a terrified scream—sounds like meaningless noise and screaming to Brando—and they retreated, moving away from Brando's side like a receding tide.

This is even more exaggerated than in the game.

Although there is also morale in the game, it is obviously not so outrageous. Brando didn't expect his blow to have such an effect, and even he was taken aback, but it was a good thing, and he immediately thrust in the direction the caveman retreated.

Akane followed.

At this time, the witch doctor Tajib in the army finally discovered these two sources from his own turmoil, and he shook the huge head characteristic of the caveman, and at first his mind was still full of anger and dissatisfaction with his subordinates.

Even two humans can make a mess of the team it has managed to assemble.

But it immediately reacted, the two humans were coming in its own direction, and it was extremely fast, it knew this from the feedback of the sound waves it emitted, but in a few breaths, the distance between the other party and it was shortened by dozens of meters.

This does not bode well.

Tajib panicked.

(PS. I think everyone should be just as unhappy as I am now.)
