Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Shadow Killer (I)
Above the city gates, on a high platform.
The three stone pillars had completely sunk to the ground.
Seeing that they could not do anything, the giant wolves besieging the Great Commander immediately abandoned the platform and pointed the finger at the boar warriors under the city walls.
The speed of the giant wolves was extremely fast, one moment they had gathered in the black patch on the high platform, and the next moment they had all scattered and rushed down the city wall.
Bang!!!
The hard ground was smashed into a big crater, and the Great Commander jumped directly from the high platform, and the height of nearly twenty meters did not bring him any damage, and the terrifying physical fitness was undoubtedly revealed!
He intercepted directly under the city gate, and the whirlwind hammer shadow rose again!
One giant wolf after another was smashed into the air, but it was quickly replenished in a steady stream.
From a distance, the Grand Commander looked like a boulder in the middle of the rapids, where the tide was split in two and flowed in both directions.
Rumble!
The wolf tide rushed through the unfinished fortifications, some of them scuffled with the boar warriors, but the other part ignored these boar warriors and followed the path opened for them by some giant wolves in front of them, crossed the defensive line, and rushed directly into the camp!
The defensive formation, which had not yet been formed, was broken up at the first moment, and there were about a hundred giant wolves that rushed into the camp, many of whom were dying after rushing through the defensive line, but they still rushed to the end regardless of it.
Mu Yan, who stabbed into the wolf's belly, suddenly felt something, and a familiar fluctuation appeared in his perception!
He turned his head sharply, just in time to see a hundred or so giant wolves rushing into the camp, and the familiar source of the fluctuation was the shadow of these giant wolves rushing through the defensive line!
"Watch out for the Shadow Wolf!!" Mu Yan suddenly realized something and shouted loudly.
But it was too late.
A sturdy black wolf with a supple black coat leaps out of the shadow of the giant wolf! Then continue to rush to the inside of the camp without stopping!
The giant wolf that was left behind stopped and was responsible for holding back the pursuing boar warriors.
Their mission has been accomplished, it's time to die here!
The boar people who followed behind were all desperately stopped by these giant wolves, and they could only watch as those shadow wolves ran farther and farther......
The battle with the wolves didn't end until it began to darken, and the addition of the Grand Commander greatly accelerated the process.
About two or three hundred giant wolves had invaded the camp this time, and all of them had been killed so far, and the corpses were piled up in front of the city gate, completely covering the tall city gate.
The boar people, on the other hand, lost eighty-seven people, nearly a third of their number in one fell swoop!
This was a great blow to the morale of the boar people, and an atmosphere of confusion and sadness permeated the boar people warriors.
Fortunately, the Grand Commander also noticed this situation in time, and by this time he had gathered everyone together and made an impassioned speech, which slightly boosted the morale of the corpora.
On the hunter's side, Mu Yan followed Parr to join the medical team of the Boar Man Camp, and is now busy shuttling between the Boar Man warriors, medicating them and counting their serious injuries.
Except for Dicker, who was bitten off a piece of flesh by a giant wolf on the shoulder because he rushed to the front, the others were not too seriously injured, and after each was drugged, they went to the side to rest.
Night falls.
The boar warriors and hunters all remained in the clearing in front of the city gates, and none of them returned to their dwellings.
Several huge braziers were lit around the perimeter, and the city gates were lit up.
The light of the fire reflected on the faces of the boar warriors, reflecting their gloomy expressions.
"Ahh
How he didn't know what was causing this situation, he looked around.
The familiar camp is now full of cold killing machines! In those places that were not illuminated by the light, there seemed to be countless black shadows wriggling, and eyes full of malice seemed to shoot from the shadows in all directions!
During this afternoon's battle, hundreds of Shadow Wolves burst into the camp and were never heard from again, and even the Boar Man warriors who knew the camp best could not find them!
If you think about it, these shadow wolves must be lurking in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to move.
However, there are so many buildings in the steel shield camp, accommodation area, entertainment area, dining area...... Where is the shadow missing? Who knows where these more than 100 shadow wolves are hiding?
Now the boar warriors don't dare to go back to the lodging area to rest, who knows that they are sleeping well, is there a shadow wolf lying under the bed?
"Watch your back!"
"You ...... on the left"
"Bring the torches, don't let him run."
"Fuck! Right ......"
The party to the east to fetch water is attacked by the Shadow Wolves, and a commotion erupts.
No one was hurt, for it was on the edge of the fire, and by the time the increased boar men had arrived, the Shadow Wolves of the attacking team had once again scurried into the darkness.
Havemer clenched his fists, he already thought about what these shadow wolves would do.
They usually hide in the shadows, and when they encounter a lone wild boar man, they will launch an attack, if the wild boar people have been gathered together, they will constantly harass them, so that they can't sleep well, they can't eat well, and even go to the toilet to be scared.
As the days passed, there would come a time when the boar people would be dragged down by hundreds of shadow wolves inside the city before they were overwhelmed by the tidal wolves outside the city.
At that time, as long as the wolf witch launches another such attack, the steel shield camp will change hands under the internal and external attacks!
It's all his fault! If it weren't for his insistence on activating the swamp magic circle, how could he fall for that wolf witch's trick!
If the Steel Shield camp was breached for this reason, then all the blame was on him!
He slammed his fist on the ground with an expression of indescribable remorse.
"Don't blame yourself for all this!" A large hand was placed on his shoulder.
There was no need to look back, and Havemer knew that this was the Grand Commander.
"But if I didn't have to use the No. 3 magic circle, with the No. 1 magic circle here, how could those mongrels break through? If ......"
"It's a decision we made together!" The Grand Commander interrupted him, a pair of resolute eyes staring at him, and there was some convincing force in his tone, "To be wrong is also our common mistake!" ”
"But ......"
"No, do you think that even if you don't do that today, you won't activate the No. 3 magic circle in the future?" The Grand Commander snorted coldly, "That's impossible! The wolf witch had already made a calculation, according to the offensive in the past few days, as soon as the spars of the No. 1 magic circle were used up, then we must use the remaining two magic circles. At that time, once the No. 3 circle is activated, the result will be no different from today! ”
"So don't feel sorry for yourself here, no matter what we do, we'll end up on this path. Now, let's think about how to get through the current difficulties! The Grand Commander sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and turned to wave to several important captain-level characters.
Havemer took a deep breath, even though he felt all kinds of self-reproach in his heart, but he suppressed it for the time being.
He knew that Konimino was right, now was not the time to feel sorry for himself, and he had to solve the problem in front of him first! He clenched his fists and kept up with the figure of the Grand Commander.
......
"Now let's talk about what to do!" Several boar people gathered together, sat in a circle, drew a circle on the ground with their fingers on the dirt to represent the steel shield camp, and a simple battle meeting began.
"First of all, outside the city!" The Grand Commander pointed to the circular side of the ground, where there was a protrusion representing the mouth of the gourd, "The swamp technique can last for three days, and we won't have to worry about wolves outside the city for three days." ”
"What if that wolf witch does witchcraft again?" The squad leader immediately asked.
"That's impossible." Harvey Mo straightened his collar and replied categorically, "Wolf witches don't use hedrons, they use witchcraft purely by their own accumulated magic power, and this time it can support close to three hundred giant wolves for a surprise attack, which is already its limit." With this level of consumption, even if the other party is a very talented wolf witch, it will take at least four or five days to accumulate enough magic power to cast a spell again! ”
"En......" Several squad leaders nodded in a deep voice.
"If there is no problem, it will be decided" Seeing that everyone had no doubts, the Grand Commander waved his hand, "Starting tomorrow, Wei Jie Shi will take five brothers to patrol the city wall, pay attention to the activities of the wolves, and notify me immediately if there is anything abnormal!" ”
"No problem, leave it to me!" The captain of the squad sitting next to Haveymer patted his chest and assured him.
"Now it's the matter of the camp......" The Grand Commander looked at Havimer, "Second brother, do you have any solutions?" ”
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Havemer shook his head a little bitterly.
"If you want to force them out of the shadows, any wizard can do it, just manipulate the elemental flow to wash away the dark elemental that is gone, but ...... I don't know where they're hiding! ”
Everyone frowned when they heard this, there are so many places in the steel shield camp that can produce shadows, and there may be shadow wolves hidden anywhere.
If you search them one by one, it will only consume Havemer's strength in vain, and when the wolf clan attacks again, and Havemer no longer has the power to activate the magic circle, then the situation will only get worse!
It's a vicious circle! It doesn't work, it doesn't work!
"Doesn't it mean that wizards can feel something different?" The captain of the squad still asked unwillingly.
Harvey Mo glanced at him: "Although I can also feel the dark element, the dark element used by the shadow wolf is also extremely rare and difficult to perceive in the dark element, this element is the same as the element on those ruin seals, it is a shadow attribute element, if they themselves are not willing to be exposed, I think no one in the shadow forest can accurately perceive the shadow wolf hidden in the shadows except the wolf witch!" ”
Alas......
The people were silent and sorrowful.
On the other side, near a large brazier.
Hunters gather here.
Mu Yan bumped Cora on the shoulder.
"What?" Cora turned her head with sleepy eyes.
"There's a shadow wolf next to me."
"Oh......" Cora yawned and turned her head, suddenly stiffened, turned her head sharply, and her eyes widened, "What? ”
