Chapter 5: Turning the Tide

87_87057 Bai Qi flipped his hand and took out a military binoculars from the storage space, looking at the weapon in the hand of the jackal, he was surprised to find that it was actually a human soldier's standard bronze heavy spear, the heavy spear still shimmered with a faint magic brilliance, and the wooden shield in his other hand also flashed with a faint magic brilliance.

Although the gnolls are strong and ferocious, due to their low intelligence, the size of the tribe is generally not large, and they cannot pose much of a threat to humans, which can only be regarded as a small trouble, and there are human soldiers' standard weapons in this gnoll tribe, which means that there are two situations, first, they have just defeated a human regular army, which is obviously impossible, if there is a human regular army dead in the hands of the jackals, the city-state would have sent a regular army into the mountains to sweep and retaliate, and it will never be like now, Leave these gnolls to the reserve warriors to practice their combat skills.

Then this situation can only say one thing, and that is that this tribe of gnolls has a glorious past.

However, although Bai Qi had speculated on this, he didn't know what it meant for a group of gnolls.

For low-level intelligent creatures like the Gnolls, a glorious past often means a strong bloodline and inheritance.

The probability of the appearance of a Chosen Warrior in an ordinary Gnoll tribe is not high, however, once a Chosen Warrior appears in the Gnoll, it is often very terrifying, they are naturally stronger than humans, and the power of qi and blood they inspire is far stronger than that of humans, and most of the ordinary human Chosen Warriors are their opponents from time to time.

However, a strong bloodline will greatly increase the chance of a Chosen Warrior for the Gnoll tribe. And a strong legacy means that this tribe has a greater chance of having a low-level shaman.

The early shamans were actually the precursors of mages and priests, and their spells and divine skills were rudimentary, but spells were spells, just as powerful, and in most cases, the caster was more terrifying than the warrior.

Balmain didn't even think that this tribe of gnolls, which numbered only thirty males, might have a Chosen Warrior or be sprinkled.

Because the gnoll tribe with such a strong person will stay in the depths of the Black Rock Mountain, and will never come to provoke the human city-state.

Countless years of fighting have long made the gnolls understand the fact that powerful human city-states are not something they can provoke, and only small tribes that fail to compete will be driven to the vicinity of human city-states.

……

Bai Qi watched through the binoculars as the extraordinarily strong gnoll triumphantly carried the bloody piece of flesh into a large shack near the giant shack.

Balmain quickly approached with his team, and he picked out the eight archers from the group, ambushed them in front of the hillside, and then formed a phalanx of shields and spears.

Bai Qi did not tell SΓΉ Balmain about his discovery, and he did not understand what his discovery meant.

With Balmain's order, eight sharp arrows roared and shot towards the bottom of the mountain.

Eight sharp arrows with the powerful inertia of a hundred meters of falling, effortlessly penetrated the bodies of the six female gnolls, pinning them to the ground, and the miserable howl as sharp as a pig suddenly resounded throughout the camp, to Bai Qi's surprise, the two sharp arrows shot at the male gnoll guards were quickly dodged by them.

Looking at the results caused by these eight arrows, Bai Qi secretly assessed himself and quickly concluded that the archery skill level of these archers was about equivalent to that of a crossbow proficient between lv1 and lv2.

With a wild boar-like howl, a huge and startling gnoll burst out of the giant shack in the middle of the camp, holding a huge bronze shield that shone with a strong spell brilliance in one hand and a huge bronze battle axe with an equally strong spell brilliance in the other.

The gnoll rushed to the clearing in front of the big shack, raised his weapon, and howled loudly.

With his howl, the female gnolls in the camp who were still scurrying back into their huts one after another, and one by one the adult males rushed out of their huts and converged on him.

The five male gnolls that burst out of the five large shacks around the giant shack were not only exceptionally tall and strong, but also held wooden shields and bronze spears that shimmered with magic in their hands.

Bai Qi was observing the situation in the camp, and suddenly felt that the rain of arrows that had hit the gnoll camp became weaker and weaker, and he looked back to see that the eight archers standing on the edge of the cliff, including Balmain, had turned very pale, and some had even stopped shooting out of fear.

Bai Qi knew that there must be something that he didn't know about the group of strong gnolls that had just appeared on the hillside, but he knew even more that if these indigenous warriors lost their morale and turned around and fled at this time, it was likely that even he would not be able to escape the pursuit.

The strong sense of crisis made Bai Qi immediately enter the state of the warrior's heart, he jumped up from the ground suddenly, and said loudly: "Continue to attack, there is only a dead end to retreat at this time, you cowards, when did Yasuo's warriors be frightened by a group of gnolls?" ”

One of the warriors closest to him pointed down the hill and said, "This is the ...... This is the Axe King Rogbydu ......"

Bai Qi turned over his hand and took out a "Moridan's ribs" from the storage space, and slammed it on the chest of this indigenous warrior, knocking him to the ground, roaring angrily: "I don't care who he is, I just know that this is a group of stupid and dirty gnolls, I, Lucas, will die under the orc's tomahawk, will die under the troll's voodoo spear, will die under the ogre's stick, but will never die in the hands of the filthy gnolls, become the rations of this filthy and ugly creature, never!" ”

Shouting this, Bai Qi suddenly turned around, and a faint red flame flashed away on him, and the bone spear in his hand disappeared instantly.

The moment this bone spear disappeared, it had already appeared in the sky above the strong leader who was nearly a quarter taller than the ordinary gnoll.

At this moment when Bai Qi was boosting his morale, all the adult males in the gnoll camp had gathered around the burly leader, and a sharp howl peculiar to the gnolls with a peculiar charm sounded in the huge shack.

At the same time that Bai Qi threw the bone spear with the "Strong Throw" plus steel heart flow force method, a red light shot out from the giant shack and exploded above the heads of the gathered gnolls, bathed in this scarlet light, and all the gnolls let out a furious howl that made people's hearts tremble.

At the howl of the gnoll, the bone spear thrown by Bai Qi came to the top of the head of the gnoll leader with a dull wind.

The leader of the gnolls was astonishing with his acuity, and at the last moment, he did not lift his head, but raised his bronze shield above his head.

With a crisp sound, the bone spear was bounced high, but the gnoll leader was also knocked back by the tremendous force of the bone spear.

The howls of the gnoll warriors were even more violent, but the expression of the gnoll leader became solemn.

He raised his great axe and swung it hard towards the hillside, and the gnolls rushed up the hillside with a howl.

The futility of the powerful throws lowered the morale of the native warriors again, the archers began to retreat, and the phalanx of shields and spears began to loosen.

But Bai Qi did not waver, he took three steps back, turned his hand and took out a bone spear again, rushed forward three steps, and stomped the ground with his left foot, while a blood-colored light rose from his body.

The blood-colored flame flickered, and the bone spear in his hand disappeared like lightning.

This time, Bai Qi's chosen target was no longer the leader of the gnolls, but the five strong gnoll warriors who rushed to the front.

The bone spear teleported, just disappeared from Bai Qi's hand, and came to the front of the gnoll warrior who rushed to the front, he only had time to lift the wooden shield in his hand half, and the bone spear grazed the edge of the shield and pierced his leather armor fiercely, penetrating his body, and the huge inertia even took his body up and flew up, crashing into an ordinary gnoll warrior behind him, and the bone spear pierced the warrior's chest again, strung the two together, and rolled down the hillside.

The astonishing result of this spear made the momentum of the jackal warrior Ruhong suffocate slightly, and his feet slowed down.

After Bai Qi threw out the spear, he didn't look at the result at all, and retreated again without hesitation,...... Charge...... Emergency stop...... Powerful toss! In one fell swoop, another Gnoll warrior was pinned to the ground......

Bai Qi shot the remaining five spears out in one go, and the five gnoll warriors, without exception, were all shot by him without resistance.

After five spears, the speed of the charging gnolll warrior suddenly dropped by half.

On the other hand, on the human warrior's side, every time Bai Qi shot a gnolf warrior, it caused a cheer, and the cheers were higher than the other, and after the five spears, the morale of the human warriors was completely aroused.

Shooting the fifth spear, Bai Qi turned his hand and took out his shield and Liquan gun, turned his head and ordered the warriors: "Archers shoot freely, and the shield spear phalanx is ready!" ”

His order was carried out without hesitation, and the archers immediately poured arrows at the gnolls as fast as they could, and the phalanx of shields and spears advanced to the edge of the hill with neat steps.

Although the morale of the gnolls was hit, the charge was still fast in the furious howls of the leader behind them, and the ordinary arrows fired by the archers, although they could pierce the leather armor of the ordinary gnolls warriors and shoot them into a scream, could not deal fatal damage, or even slow down the pace of these murderous creatures.

When the gnolls were only twenty meters away from the top of the slope, Balmain, who had regained his composure, shouted: "Archers change their shields and spears to form a shield wall on both sides of the phalanx. ”

The eight archers threw away their bows and arrows, quickly retreated to the sides of the phalanx, and skillfully erected their shields against the phalanx to form a shield wall.

The gnolls that swept over the hillside crossed the last twenty meters in the blink of an eye.

Bai Qi held a shield in one hand and a gun in the other, standing on the hillside directly in front of the shield spear phalanx, and the swarming gnolls warriors actually split into two five meters away from him, bypassed him, and crashed into the phalanx behind him.

Seeing this, Bai Qi simply ignored those ordinary gnolls and set his eyes on the majestic figure behind the gnoll team.

Getting closer, Bai Qi can even understand the burly and tall of this creature, his height is even more than two meters five, Bai Qi, who is less than one meter seven tall, stands in front of him like a child, the bronze round shield in his hand is more than one meter in diameter, in the hands of humans, it is considered a large shield, but in his hands it can only be regarded as a small round shield, the bronze giant axe in his hand, the axe is as big as a door panel, the appearance is rough, and it does not look like a human style in terms of weight and size.
