Chapter 17: Abandoned Orchard Attack
Zhang Yi originally asked this question casually, but Yuan Bilan actually refused to answer it on the grounds of insufficient authority, which really aroused Zhang Yi's curiosity.
Pinching his chin and thinking about it, Zhang Yi asked again:
"Then you can sue me, what do I need to do to get enough permission to know about this empire."
This time, the round roll gave the answer very happily.
"According to the calculation of this machine, as long as you completely complete task two, this machine can transfer a part of the empire's information to you."
Well, this thing is now going around and back to square one. It seems that Zhang Yi has one more reason to clear the abandoned orchard.
Fortunately, compared with the beginning, now, Zhang Yi has some confidence in whether he can complete the task of clearing the abandoned orchard.
Especially after getting your hands on that military version of the lightweight crossbow.
After explaining all the things that should be explained, he pulled out very neatly. After patiently waiting for the projection screen to fold into a ball, retract it into the left hand.
Zhang Yi also instructed the two kobolds to pack up their supplies, and the combination of one person and two dogs came out again.
This time, there were no more surprises. According to the hint of the magic map, Zhang Yi took the two kobolds to the vicinity of the abandoned orchard very smoothly.
Tell the two kobolds to find a place to hide and wait for their orders. Zhang Yi carefully narrowed the distance under the cover of the grass alone, and then he began to carefully peek at the abandoned orchard.
The orchard is surrounded by a U-shaped wooden fence, a large and a small wooden and stone hut, located at the end of the U-shaped opening, which forms a complete ellipse with the U-shaped fence, sealing about 20 fruit trees inside the fence.
Because there was no one to take care of it, both the wooden fence and the appearance of the two huts looked a little shabby. On the contrary, those fruit trees, because of the inertia of nature, hang some large and small fruits on the branches.
Of course, these are just some inconsequential details.
What really gave Zhang Yi a bit of a headache was that on the top of the larger hut, there was actually a structure similar to a watchtower. Apparently the former owner of this orchard also knew that the environment around it was not so friendly.
It's a pity that this watchtower not only didn't help him keep this orchard, but now it also brings some trouble to Zhang Yi. Because, under Zhang Yi's gaze, a furry figure appeared in which watchtower. What made Zhang Yi feel even more headache was that the fluffy guy was still holding a cross bow in his hand.
Obviously, these gnolls have more brains than Zhang Yi imagined, at least, Zhang Yi didn't expect that these four-legged people who walked upright actually knew that when guarding the stronghold, they would arrange condescending long-range firepower.
The only good news now is that the gnoll man who was sent out on a sentry mission is clearly a guy who doesn't have much sense of responsibility.
After a cursory look at it twice, the creature leaned against the pillar with the crossbow and began to doze off.
Goddess bless.
After subconsciously muttering in his heart, Zhang Yi didn't care why he suddenly had such an idea. Instead, with the fastest degree, call his auxiliary aI.
"Round, squeak, there's work done."
A small projection screen appeared in front of Zhang Yi with a bang.
"Is there anything that needs to be done natively for you? Dear users, ”
Regardless of politeness, Zhang Yi asked his own question directly in his mind.
"Round Roll, what is the effective range of that crossbow you gave me, can you shoot from here to that gnolls on the roof?"
After listening to Zhang Yi's question, Yuan Bilun was silent for a while, and then gave an affirmative answer.
"Dear user, according to the calculations of this machine, as long as you swing normally in the current situation, you will not have any problem shooting that gnolle. Please have more confidence in the Empire's military supplies. ”
Ignoring the round complaints, Zhang Yi quickly checked his weapons and equipment, and confirmed that all the things that needed to be used were in a relatively convenient position.
After confirming, Zhang Yi stepped on the pedal, wound the crossbow hard, and then loaded the pointed crossbow. Carefully aim at the gnolls who were still dozing off in the watchtower.
Calculating the height difference, Zhang Yi held his breath and pulled the trigger gently.
With a hum, the bowstring reset the crossbow and left the string, followed by a faint fluttering sound. The bolt hit accurately, and the dozing gnolll hit the left side of the carry's chest.
Then, the jackal, who had lost his life in a half-dream, fell limply forward, fell directly out of the watchtower, went all the way down the roof, and finally fell on the grass with a snap.
Zhang Yi didn't pay attention to this fool who was taken away by his own arrow, gritted his teeth and wound the crossbow again with the fastest degree, and buckled the crossbow bolt.
He held the crossbow in his right hand and picked up the magic map in his left hand. did not disappoint Zhang Yi, and the magic map showed the movements of the jackals very accurately.
From the moment Zhang Yi pulled the trigger of the crossbow, the display mode of this magic map changed. It automatically becomes a tactical map with only a two-dimensional plane.
On this map, Zhang Yi easily appeared, with two red dots appearing at the door of the house facing away from him. After a while, two equally plush figures appeared in Zhang Yi's field of vision.
It's two ordinary gnoll men with hand axes.
Zhang Yi didn't attack the first time the jackals appeared.
Because the unlucky ghost he killed before landed head-on when he fell from the roof. So, to the two new gnolls, it looked like they had accidentally fallen off the roof.
So, Zhang Yi waited patiently until the two guys walked to the side of the unlucky guy and finally realized that something was not quite right.
Zhang Yi pulled the trigger of the crossbow again, and the hum of the bowstring reset just sounded, Zhang Yi immediately bent down and lowered his head, and while stepping on the tread ring with his foot, he grabbed the bowstring with both hands and worked together to rewind the light crossbow.
Maybe the strength of Zhang Yi's hands is strong enough, or maybe his professional characteristics play a role. In short, Zhang Yi completed the winding action of the cross bow in a fairly short period of time.
Raising his head again, Zhang Yi began to look for the remaining gnoll.
Luckily, although the remaining gnolls showed Zhang Yi's position, he chose the wrong way to deal with it. He rushed directly towards Zhang Yi's position.
Obviously, with this guy's IQ, he didn't expect Zhang Yi to complete the second winding of the cross bow in such a short time.
It's a pity, reality won't give this guy a second chance.
After Zhang Yi pulled the trigger again, the crossbow bolt that left the string hit the jackal's chest without any suspense, and stabbed it deeply.
