Chapter 85: Ambush
Somewhere in the dark forest, a dense group of lizardmen emerged from the shadows of the trees and headed in the direction of the small village of Nisse.
Compared to the previous Lizardmen who attacked William's Village, this new batch of Lizardmen is more numerous, larger, and has better weapons in their hands.
The last lizardman tribe was still using wooden weapons, but in this lizardman tribe, stone wooden clubs and stone spears have appeared!
Of course, there are also lizardmen who use wooden weapons, and there are quite a few of them.
But I have to say that this is a qualitative breakthrough, which means that this lizardman tribe is even stronger.
The lizardman who walked in front of him had amber eyes with a fierce and furious light, thicker and sharper claws, and a fishy saliva at the corners of his mouth.
From time to time, when passing through the trees, lizardmen would stretch out their claws and scrape over the trunk, tearing off a piece of bark and sending it to their mouths.
In this way, the bark of each tree was torn to "inhuman".
In the winter, there are no beasts to be found, and these lizardmen are already hungry.
Although the previous leader did not hesitate to refuse the request of the reported group of lizardmen to merge into their tribe, after getting the information, he slaughtered all the reported lizardmen and distributed them to the lizardmen of their tribe to eat, but the monk has more porridge and less porridge, three thousand lizardmen, less than a hundred lizardmen meat, except for the leader of the lizardmen, the other lizardmen get a limited amount.
It was just enough to stuff between the teeth, and it was almost digested by now.
Now the one that can support them to move forward is the small village of Nisse that the last group of lizardmen said!
You're sure to have a full meal!
These lizardfolk with little brain capacity thought to themselves, in their world, eating, sleeping, and mating were everything, and especially eating, was the most important thing.
As for the fact that their lizardman leaders didn't care about "morality in the rivers and lakes" at all, and didn't have any "moral integrity", and directly ate the lizardmen who reported the news, these little things of sesame mung beans have never been put in their hearts, let alone make them feel a little guilty.
Aren't you born with a mouth just to eat?
Don't mess with them, I'll eat them when you're hungry!
Every winter, a large number of the lizardmen in the Shadow Swamp die.
Some died of starvation, some were beaten, and some were unlucky to die.
But no matter how they die, they all die cleanly in the end.
Not even a single residue is left for the earth.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
William stood motionless on a large tree, coldly watching the lizardmen passing below.
In a nearby tree, twenty-five members of the Guardian stood up.
In fact, there were nine members of the escort team, although they were lucky to be alive, but they were seriously disabled and could no longer adapt to the high-intensity combat requirements of the escort team, so William did not let them come.
Of the twenty-five members of the Escort Team, there are six Escort Team Leaders and nineteen Escort members.
But whether it was the captain of the escort team or the members of the escort team, their faces turned blue.
It wasn't from standing on a tree and being blown by the cold wind, but from William's home remedies.
Beneath their blue faces were a pair of determined and cold eyes.
The physical fitness of each member of the Guardian is above 1.5.
It's generally above 2, and it has knight-level combat power.
The strength of the six escort squad leaders is even more terrifying, and they all have a physical fitness of more than 3, reaching the level of the middle of the knights.
As for William, his physical fitness is still around 5, and there is not much change from last time, because he has reached the limit of this body.
To change the vocabulary explanation of William's previous life, that is, he has reached the genetic limit.
From now on, unless there are any special circumstances, his physical fitness can no longer be improved, and he even has to worry about the decline of physical fitness for various reasons.
For example, his current agility has decreased a little.
Because he had a back injury before, it was affected.
But the impact was minimal, and William didn't feel it at all, that is, the data displayed by the magic mirror was discovered.
With such an injury, in the William Knight stage, when there is only about 2 physical fitness, it may take a short time to recuperate before most of the combat effectiveness can be recovered.
But now, the physical fitness above 5 showed its terrifying side, the bleeding stopped during the battle, and after the battle, the body spontaneously recovered the wound, and after a day or two, the wound was healed together, forming a scar.
During this time, the scars have completely disappeared.
If it weren't for the data detected by the magic mirror, William would have felt that his injuries had improved.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
William's body, as well as the other members of the Guard, were no longer wearing leather robes or leather armor with low defensive power.
They now wear the scale armor stripped by the dead lizardmen.
The corpses of the lizardmen were sent to the butcher's factory for disposal, and some of the meat was given as trophies to the families of the convoy members and servant soldiers who participated in the war.
Some of the meat was cut into thin strips and sold at a low price in the grocery store, and the lizardmen's bones and water were given as gifts.
For the first time in the small village of Nise, a mouth full of oil was eaten.
No one is psychologically burdened with a lizardman.
Only the superior will think about what to eat, and the poor only know what to eat!
As for the lizardmen's scale armor, after being stripped off, they were sent to the earthen house at William's request.
These scales also have lizardfolk grease on them, which need to be thoroughly tanned before they can be turned into usable leather.
It is usually tanned with plant ash or other things, and it takes a long time, but William could not wait so long!
Throwing it in front of the food table, he said, "Small table, open up!" ”
The gourmet table was just as William had thought, cleaning up all the grease attached to the lizard's scales and gathering it into a large basin of grease.
After the lizard's scale armor was cleaned of grease, William threw the hundreds of sets of scales to the tailor Bud.
Little Bud worked day and night, dead and dead, and finally made thirty pieces of full-body scale armor before William led the "special team" to go on the expedition, and delivered them to the members of the escort team and William for use.
These thirty pieces of lizard scale armor have much stronger defense than the previous leather armor.
The uniform black scale armor is worn on the body, and it has a unique majesty.
As for the by-product grease on the lizard's scale armor, it made William suddenly think of a certain use.
What is constant on the gourmet table is the art of making food, and William discovers that as long as it is related to food, the gourmet table can be made.
It's nothing more than how much energy is consumed!
And oil is a type of food.
After William recited the spell of the gourmet table, the basin of grease was gone, replaced by a bulging bag that was now in the hands of the members of the Guard.
It's full of oil!
A pot of grease certainly can't make that much oil, and the gourmet table didn't get the raw materials from nowhere to make this pile of oil.
And now, it's time for these oils to do their job.
William and his entourage looked at the endless stream of lizardmen passing below, and counted silently in their hearts.
"Five Steps, Four Steps, Three Steps, Two Steps, ...... Drop"
The ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a large crater, and the group of lizardmen who had walked in front of them fell.
Screams came from the pit.
It turned out that the pit was full of sharpened wooden thorns, and some of the unlucky lizardmen were directly pierced, and the remaining lizardmen were also pierced with scales and bleeding.
The sudden turn of events has thrown the lizardmen into chaos and disturbed them.
William from the tree waved his hand sharply, "It's now!" Put! ”
PS: Actually, I'm already thinking about the next fairy tale plot now. Guess which fairy tale has a golden apple?
