Chapter 40: Encounter with the Rock Demon
The benefits and disadvantages were clearly explained, and as soon as he heard it, he was ready to find some people among the disciples to act as scouts, and he patrolled around every day, and when he found the demon army, he sent a signal.
But there aren't many people willing to be scouts.
Because the scouts are running outside, not to mention tired, once they encounter the demon army, if the number of the army is not one or two, but many, it may be killed!
Of course, there are also benefits, that is, when encountering scattered routs, you can try to exterminate them and be the first to obtain merit points. In addition, as long as you go to the scout mission, you can get two merit points from Wen Yiqing afterwards.
Wu Ji actively did the work of scouts, because he had stepped on the snow without a trace, and he was very good at doing the work of scouts, and he did not have to worry about safety, and he might make meritorious contributions first.
In this way, Wu Ji went outside every day to investigate the news, because he was wearing the standard uniform of the Iron Dragon Gate, the Jinguanghou army on the main road checkpoint turned a blind eye to him running around.
Wu Ji carefully observed Jin Guanghou's army and found that these troops, as long as they were soldiers, the most ordinary big soldiers were all warriors, although they were the lowest level of warriors.
The officers who go up are more and more powerful warriors. Only the people who carry grain and grass are not warriors.
Wu Ji was a little envious, thinking that those generals who held the power of the army were more majestic, and gave an order, thousands of troops were like arm-in-arms, walking on the street were all personal soldiers to open the way, and there could be a mighty general's mansion and many beautiful wives and concubines.
However, among the rewards issued by Jin Guanghou this time, there are military official positions, which can be exchanged as long as the merit points are enough.
Therefore, Wu Ji patrolled more actively, and on the third day, he finally made a discovery.
On this day, Wu Ji hunted some game and found a peak to roast meat there to eat.
Half of the roast was eaten, because the view from the peak was relatively wide, Wu Ji suddenly saw something moving in a lush place below.
Wu Ji hurriedly put down the barbecue in his hand, went down from the side of the mountain, and took advantage of the vegetation and terrain to see it closely.
At a glance, I found that there seemed to be a real demon in front of me!
When I got closer, I could see it more clearly, and it was really a real demon. I saw that his whole body was like a stone, not too many muscles, so that it looked like a stone, but a real stone, piece by piece, forming the appearance of a three-meter-tall stone man, and his two eyes seemed to be gems, emitting red light.
This stone man has no clothes on his body, nor does he have any human shame, but reveals a very powerful and fierce momentum.
Wu Ji guessed that this was a stone demon, a type of demon race.
Tang Tiexin had talked about all kinds of demons for him before, but they were all rough, so he could only barely identify them, and he couldn't be completely sure.
Right now, the demons have brought five or six demon servants, sneakily walking through the ravine, probably for fear of being found.
Wu Ji thought that the demons were difficult to defeat, and it was better not to expose himself, so he quietly ran farther away, and under the cover of the mountains and forests, he released signal flares.
The demons looked at the flare and knew that it was a human thing, which meant that the human race was coming, and they were looking around to find the human being.
Wu Ji knew that most of the demons' abilities were single and strong, only extremely prominent in one aspect, and the other abilities were very weak. If this demon is very capable of reconnaissance, it is likely that he will be discovered.
Fortunately, the Stone Demon Clan looked around for a while, but didn't find anything. His demon servants didn't notice it. The whole team just sped up.
So Wu Ji followed behind with peace of mind, waiting for rescue.
After about half an hour, where Wu Ji originally sent the signal, a signal flare suddenly rose as well.
As soon as Wu Ji saw it, he knew that it was a signal for the reinforcements to ask him where the demon clan had arrived now.
So Wu Ji took out a signal flare, echoed it from afar, and told them the location.
After a while, the mountains and forests in the rear flew up one by one, and the trees fell crookedly, and Wu Ji knew that the army had arrived.
Sure enough, I saw a young general wearing armor, leading two hundred soldiers, strong bows and crossbows, spears and giant axes, and a bright and cold metallic luster, reflecting the light, and the vast soup came.
Wu Ji greeted him and arched his hand: "Wu Ji, a disciple of the Iron Dragon Gate, has seen you. ”
The young general said: "I am Li Fei, the captain of the Golden Light Army, Brother Wu is polite, is the demon clan in front?"
Wu Ji immediately showed him the way, and two minutes later, he saw the figure of the demon clan.
Wu Ji said tentatively: "I heard that the demon clan is strong, and only those who have cultivated true qi can be able to defeat the enemy, I don't know ...... general."
Li Fei is only a lieutenant, and he is not even as good as the lowest-ranking general among the generals, so he naturally does not deserve the title of general. However, everyone likes to hear people praise and elevate themselves, so he listened to Wu Ji's words and said happily: "Brother Wu, you don't know, it is only when you fight alone that you need true qi cultivation, our army, there is a military array arrangement, and the military soul is manifest, so you don't need such a high cultivation." ”
When Wu Ji heard this, he was also looking forward to it, so he smiled and said, "Then it's troublesome General Li, I'll wait and see." ”
But he said that the demon clan, when he saw the army of the human race, was frightened and fled forward at a faster speed. But as Li Fei and his people chased closer and closer, it seemed that they couldn't escape.
The demon clan is also relatively strong, and he chose a high slope, and inserted his feet into the soil like roots, so he had to face the two hundred army of the human race.
When he was about a hundred steps away from the demons and the demon servants, Li Fei waved his hand to let everyone stop, then took out the bow and arrows, lined them up in a semicircle, stretched out his bow and arrows, and gave an order, "Shoot!"
In an instant, two hundred long arrows of different strength shot at the demons and the demon servants. And they seemed to be stupid, they didn't even dodge, clenched their fists, and a layer of earthy yellow light flowed on their bodies, just like that.
"Ding, Ding, Ding......"
The arrows shot at the bodies of the Rock Demon Clan and the others one after another, and they were as if they were shooting at stones or even metal, and they had almost no effect!
A round of arrows came down, and none of the demons and demon servants were injured!
"The defense of this demon clan is simply perverted!" Wu Ji muttered to himself.
He knew that every demon race was strong in a certain aspect, but now the performance of the demon clan still amazed him, so many arrows, he couldn't even break the defense!
However, Li Fei was not discouraged, he ordered the soldiers to continue shooting arrows, and for a while the arrows rained down, and the sound of clanging was endless, if an ordinary earthling person saw this scene, his jaw would definitely drop.
Wu Ji found that during the second round of arrow rain, some demon servants' defenses were broken, although only a small wound was drawn on the body, but it was not without achievements.
