Chapter 262: Negrim of the Counterattack (5)
"Catch it! Don't let it run! Chen Kai, who was pulling the rope, was trying to suppress the two huge reindeer, and of course he had to prevent himself from being knocked out by the huge antlers. Therefore, he had to pull the other party hard, so that the two reindeer were in a state of wrestling with him all the time.
After checking and encountering an Earth Bear, Chen Kai and the others spent a full two hours to encounter this reindeer herd, and it took a full hour to catch up with them. While these reindeer were resting, Fei Yun and Zhou Xuan shot three reindeer with crossbow arrows and bows drenched in anesthetic, while Chen Kai and the others took the opportunity to directly grab more than a dozen with lassoes. It's just that brute force is dangerous to catch like this, because reindeer are not particularly tame animals. Although they eat grass, they will burst out with terrifying combat power when they are in a hurry, which is enough to fly a wolf out with a single blow, or even kill them directly.
Of course, it is definitely only ordinary wolves that can be killed, if it is a winter wolf in the forest, it is impossible to be killed by these reindeer, but it is certain that the top flies out. However, at present, Chen Kai and none of them have been injured, because they have used a large number of restricted spells, compared to those winter wolves, these reindeer are just ordinary creatures, even if their bodies are extremely strong, they are still powerless in the face of spider web techniques.
It's just that the ice and snow have greatly reduced the effect of spider webs, because the spider silk attached to the ice and snow can easily be pulled up by the reindeer with brute force along with the ice and snow. Of course, the final result was that the reindeer rolled on the ground directly because of unsteady standing, and the sticky spider silk directly stuck a large amount of snow and wrapped it into a snowball.
When nearly twenty reindeer were thrown to the ground by Chen Kai and them, they soon fell into another problem, that is, how to take the reindeer away. There is no doubt that the animals in this forest cannot communicate with Friends of Nature, otherwise Chen Kai and the others would not have to use brute force, they would just take that elf druid out for a walk. The custodian can sneak all the animals back, not to mention the reindeer, even those terrible giant bears and winter wolves, but in other places, the friends of nature who are invincible to ordinary animals are of no use to these animals.
Looking at the reindeer Chen Kai who kept barking, they really wanted to throw them directly into the pet space, but the problem was that the branded pets couldn't be thrown in at all. And these reindeer simply can't be branded until they're tamed. So Chen Kai and the others could only look at the reindeer tied together in a daze, after all, the weight of each reindeer was not light, it was nearly two or three hundred kilograms of moving meat. For Chen Kai, he can resist two reindeer alone, but the problem is that he can't walk after carrying two deer.
The most important thing is that there are more than two reindeer around them now, and Chen Kai suddenly lost his mind when he looked at these reindeer. There was no doubt that it would not be possible to kill them directly, after all, they had planned to capture the reindeer, and if they had killed them, they would have used weapons instead of numbing and sticks.
"What about the boss?" Looking at the reindeer tied up by the rope, everyone began to worry, they originally wanted to catch the reindeer but suddenly found that these reindeer could not be tamed in a short period of time and could not be stuffed into the pet space at all, so the original idea was directly broken in the face of reality.
"What else can I do? Copy guy!! Come with me to the logging! Make a simple sleigh ride! Chen Kai sighed helplessly, but originally others thought that Chen Kai's copyist was preparing to slaughter these reindeer. He almost stabbed the weapon in his hand into the reindeer's body. Fortunately, Chen Kaizuigull's sentence was timely, otherwise there would really be reindeer stabbed to death or hacked to death.
Of course, Chen Kai and the others would never look for those huge ancient tree poles, but use ropes to climb the trees and directly cut down the thick branches of those trees, and the huge branches were enough for them to use. The most important thing is that it takes too long and is too dangerous to cut down such a huge ancient tree, after all, this is not their territory.
"Click! Click! As the weapon in his hand continued to fall on the branches with a diameter of more than fifteen centimeters, Chen Kai's eyes kept looking around. In the silent forest, there was only the movement of Chen Kai and the others cutting down trees, and Zhao Tiezhu and Su Xinghe below were using the weapons in their hands to turn the thick branches they had cut down into needed parts. Of course, the only thing they could do under such rudimentary conditions was to simply put things together, but luckily Fei Yun's backpack contained a lot of iron nails that could be used as trap materials. By the time the first improvised sleigh was assembled, the sun had risen to the center of the sky, but only a little sunlight was shining into the forest under the thick clouds.
Of course, this is normal, if the sun is allowed to shine unbridled in the forest. Then the heavy snow that the ancient mages spent so much money on will melt away in a short time. The thick clouds in the sky only occasionally allow sunlight to shine on the earth, which is why the temperature in the forest is kept low all the time. At the same time, the ambient light is also a little dim, so that Chen Kai's vision is not particularly good, but standing high and seeing far away, riding on a branch more than ten meters high, Chen Kai and they can at least see the situation within hundreds of meters. It's just that at this distance, if you encounter a winter wolf, you won't have a chance to escape. Fortunately, they were able to climb the tree to avoid it, and those winter wolves had no way to climb the tree, but if the enemy they encountered was the Earth Bear, then Chen Kai and they could only ask for more blessings for themselves.
So Chen Kai and the others threw all the reindeer on the ground, and once they encountered the winter wolves, they could quickly climb the trees and escape, leaving the reindeer to attract the attention of the winter wolves. As for the giant bear, the same can be done. After all, in Chen Kai's opinion, most winter wolves are living creatures, and they will never leave the food in their hands and pull the trees without eating.
It's just that these ancient trees are not so easy to climb, they are too thick, and the bark surface is very smooth, and most importantly, most of the trees have very few branches at the bottom, but for Chen Kai and them, this is not a difficult thing. They have a way of climbing from the ground to the treetops. Even Chen Kai is the same, after all, he can fly now. It's just that the experience of each flight is not so good, because basically Chen Kai has crashed many more times than he has successfully made a forced landing. However, Chen Kai can still use it to climb trees, but he estimates that Bartley knows that he uses the armor, which takes a lot of energy from the elven mage to design the function of climbing trees, and will definitely run from the elven imperial capital to give him a map cannon.
However, for Chen Kai, it would be very difficult to climb the smooth, straight trees while wearing armor, and without his current flying ability, it would be impossible for him to avoid those winter wolves. After three hours of busy work, Chen Kai and his team finally built five sleigh cars. After letting go of the reindeer that were tied up and about to hang up, the group tied the reindeer directly to the back of the sleigh and slowly moved in the direction of the camp.
Of course, those reindeer are still tied with ropes around their necks, after all, if they don't wear them, they will definitely run away the moment the rope is released. But now they can't run if they want to, because if they do, their necks will tighten and they will suffocate. Although Chen Kai and the others still did not suppress these reindeer. But for the sake of their own lives, they still chose to stay obediently. Although these reindeer were afraid of Chen Kai and them, they were even more afraid of the rope around their necks that could suffocate them.
But even if the neck will be choked and suffocated, Chen Kai and the others also understand that it is absolutely impossible to let these reindeer obediently follow. So after the reindeer were out of the way, they were tied up again and thrown on the sleigh. Chen Kai and the others slowly moved towards the direction of the camp with manpower pulling the sled, and there were less than two to three hours left before dark, and they had to return to the camp as much as possible. It's just that at the current speed, Chen Kai feels that it will be difficult to return to the camp before dark, after all, they are quite a long way from the camp.
"Originally, I wanted to use these reindeer as animal power to pull people, but I didn't expect that now we have to pull them away!" Fei Yun had a rope hanging from his waist and slid forward, but the speed that could have been lifted quickly had to be slowed down, and Chen Kai simply gave up the ski. Because he simply has no way to use it.
"Don't talk! Come on! We're going to hurry! Chen Kai, who was pulling a sled car alone, pulled the rope behind him hard, and the sled car moved forward quickly under his pull, but the speed still could not reach the speed of skiing before. After all, even if Chen Kai was huge, he couldn't run in the snow, and the thick snow slowed him down.
Chen Kai's breathing was a little heavy, because they were afraid that the bonfire would attract wolves, they didn't dare to make a fire to cook at all, and the group almost drank cold water and ate dry and hard food to get through the lunch period. If they still want a hot dinner, they have to hurry. It's just that even if Chen Kai and the others want to speed up, they really can't be fast, after all, the speed of the simple sled car on the snow is limited, and those reindeer need to let go of the rope from time to time to move their hands and feet, so when the sky gradually darkens, they are still more than ten kilometers away from the camp.
"! At our current pace, it will take at least two hours to get to the nest! Chen Kai sighed breathlessly. He thought he would be able to get back before dark, but it turned out that things were more difficult than he had imagined.
"It's already good! I'm worried about whether we'll be able to bring these reindeer back to camp, because it's not going to be a good night! Fei Yun lifted his mask and wiped the sweat from his face, and the biting cold wind quickly made him close the mask again. After all, it was night, and the night in Denzel Forest was unusually cold. In fact, although they were wearing a wolf skin coat and even the armor was lined with wolf skin, Chen Kai and the others still felt that the cold wind was constantly drilling into their bodies.
"It's not good indeed!" Xu Fei was just about to say something when he suddenly heard a faint wolf howl in his ears, and those reindeer who had already resigned themselves to their fate were now struggling, and their perception of danger let them know that there must be wolves around.
"Damn it!" Chen Kai shook off the rope on his body vigorously, and then heard a large number of footsteps in his ears. Although the footsteps of the winter wolves are very light when they move on the snow, the movement of the huge number of winter wolves is definitely not small.
"Fourth! Execute as planned! Although he was helpless, Chen Kai had to give up these reindeer, because it was impossible for them to take the reindeer away under the nose of these winter wolves. But when I thought of the reindeer I had brought back with great difficulty, I was eaten by these winter wolves. Chen Kai and the others felt very unhappy and angry, so before that, they thought of a very vicious plan, which was to inject venom into the bodies of these reindeer.
Of course, these venoms are definitely not the kind that occurs immediately, if the venom that occurs immediately will not bite those reindeer as long as those winter wolves are not stupid, so Chen Kai and the others chose a chronic venom mixed with paralyzing toxins. It's just that Chen Kai and the others don't know if this kind of venom can poison those winter wolves, but in line with the idea that you don't make me feel better than me, and I can't make you eat meat comfortably, those poor reindeer were all injected with dozens of milliliters of venom by the special metal syringe in a short time.
The onset of these venoms is not fast, but it will seep into every inch of the reindeer's muscles along the blood, and in the screams of these reindeer, Chen Kai and they quickly helped each other climb the ancient tree more than ten meters high. Almost in less than ten seconds before their bodies climbed the ancient tree, Fei Yun, who had fallen last, had injected each reindeer with venom and then the last one climbed to the treetops.
Of course, the moment he ascended the tree, Fei Yun cut the neck of a reindeer, causing the blood to spurt out instantly. Almost as soon as they arrived, the winter wolves pounced on the reindeer with its neck slit. Although the light was dim and they couldn't see the situation on the ground, Chen Kai and the others knew that those winter wolves were eating all the reindeer when they looked at the way the flesh was flying.
"Fourth! How long does it take for the poison to strike? Chen Kai asked Fei Yun not far away in a low voice, compared to the other two or three people occupying a branch, Chen Kai occupied a branch alone, and it was still the thickest kind. He is also closest to the ground, for the branches grow thicker the closer they grow to the ground.
"I don't know! It may be quick if it is injected with blood, but these wolves are eaten, so it may take a little time for the toxin to flare up! Fei Yun's position was not far from Chen Kai, because he was the last to climb up, so he couldn't climb too high in order not to make a movement.
"But the paralyzing toxin attack will be very fast!" When Fei Yun finished speaking, hundreds of winter wolves had already finished snatching the reindeer on the ground, although the reindeer had not been completely eaten, but their bodies had been torn into countless pieces in a burst of screams, and those winter wolves that were so strong that the meat pieces began to run to the side with the meat pieces in their mouths and devoured them quickly. In front of food, except for the leader of the winter wolf, who can have a reindeer for himself, all the other winter wolves must compete with other winter wolves to get a bite to eat. In fact, these winter wolves also feel lucky. Although they all hunt in groups, it is rare to be able to catch so many reindeer at once, and most of the time it takes ten winter wolves to catch a single reindeer. More than twenty reindeer require the cooperation of nearly two hundred winter wolves, and the most important thing is that the reindeer are very vigilant and cannot give these winter wolves a chance to round up.
The movement of hundreds of winter wolves together is too large, so when hunting, they are divided into small teams to round up, and they are not greedy at a time, basically ensuring that every wolf can eat, but there is no doubt that there is no time to have such a full as today. Because they don't need to travel for kilometers to hunt for food, they are almost given the opportunity to eat as soon as they arrive.
It's just that these winter wolves didn't expect that this pie-in-the-sky thing actually buried a terrible crisis, because the paralyzing toxin attack was very fast, but these winter wolves didn't notice it, because they all had the habit of lying down and eating after they were full. This lazy posture did not make them feel inappropriate, and it was only when the chronic toxin attack that the winter wolves realized that something was wrong, but they could no longer stand up from the ground. Of course, not all winter wolves are like that. There is no doubt that the mighty winter wolves can still get up from the ground and fight, but they are facing an attack from the sky.
Chen Kai directly took out the Longinus spear from his backpack and threw it downward like a throwing spear, and the spear with the piercing effect instantly pierced the body of a winter wolf, no matter how tough its fur was, it was pierced like paper paste under the piercing effect. The spear thrown by Chen Kai was like a battle signal. Because they all know that these toxins are not enough to kill these winter wolves, as long as they are given a little time, they can definitely resist the power of the toxin. The strength of the vitality of the magical creatures is not a joke, so Chen Kai and the others must kill these winter wolves before they recover, otherwise they will have to hide in the trees and fight with these winter wolves after they recover.
However, Chen Kai, who flew down, was not the first to wave his weapon and pounce on those winter wolves. Because the first one was that Zhao Tiezhu jumped directly when he relied on the rope to descend quickly and approached the ground and was more than three meters high. The new weapon in his hand slammed into the snow directly under the effect of his own magic power, and at that moment, the rich earth elemental power instantly exploded and spread around. The winter wolves who were ready to fight were struck by this shockwave almost instantaneously, and fell into a dizziness. At the moment when the shock wave is released. Zhao Tiezhu had already raised the white bone war hammer in his hand again and smashed it on the head of a winter wolf.
When Zhao Tiezhu completed this blow, Chen Kai also unfolded his metal wings and smashed heavily into the winter wolf pack, and the moment he landed, he directly pulled out the spear he threw and instantly penetrated into the mouth of the other winter wolf. The sharp spear head directly pierced the opponent's throat with the blessing of the piercing effect, hanging the wolf's body on the spear, and Chen Kai did not pull out the spear again this time, but pulled out the giant sword behind his back and rushed towards the leader of the winter wolf pack. (To be continued......)
