Looking at the scorched earth in front of him, which was still smoking, Brandon lost his mind for a moment: "What's going on?"

"Looks like there was a fierce battle here not long ago. An old man came to Brandon's side and sighed, "Thanks to our day and night, we hurried and hurried, but Chongbang still did it first." ”

"Elder Medin. Brandon nodded at the old man, then looked up at the peaceful and peaceful canopy of the sacred tree not far away, and frowned, "Strange, there seems to be no sound of battle coming from the other side of the Natural Forest. Where have the people of the Chongbang family gone? Could it be that they have already taken the natural forest?"

"The second young master probably thinks too highly of the Bang family. Although they are strong, they are not enough to crush the natural forests of today. ”

Medin shrugged: "The old man has estimated the strength comparison between the two sides, and it is impossible for the Chongbang family to conquer the natural forest in such a short period of time with the Chongbang family alone. Besides, the person who led the army of Chongbang was the one who entered the mountain, how could he be able to eat the natural forest alone?"

He doesn't think so. Thinking back to his time at the Wizard's Academy, the dogleg who circled around him all day long, Brandon's eyes couldn't help but have a hint of banter.

"Report-" At this time, a scout in front hurried back, and after saluting Brandon, he hurriedly said, "Second Young Master, Elder Medin, front, front, front......"

"What's going on up ahead, there's an ambush?" Medin's eyes widened suddenly, "What's the situation!"

"There was no ambush and no danger. There was deep fear in the scout's eyes, "But there is a stone monument in the middle of the road ahead, and there is a ...... on it."

Looking at the scout in front of him, who couldn't even speak clearly, Brandon frowned, snorted softly, and walked straight forward. Seeing this, Medder hurriedly followed: "Second Young Master be careful, wait for the old man!

Brandon and Medin led the guards through the scorched earth, which was still steaming, and sure enough, they came across the stele that the scout had described. When everyone approached and looked, they couldn't help but immediately change their faces.

I saw a lone head standing on top of the tall stone monument. However, it seems that after a period of exposure to the wind and sun, the skull has begun to rot, emitting a foul stench.

At the foot of the stele lies a headless corpse. His clothes were already in tatters, and his lower body was burned to a black mass, and his death was horrific.

On the stele, there is a line of large characters deeply engraved:

The invading army of the Chongbang is all wiped out here!

"Second Young Master, Elder Medin. The scout followed with a pale face, and reported, "A brother has gone underground to see it by performing his earth technique, and it's all underground, it's all-"

"Don't say it!" Brandon tensed his face and silently stepped aside, then retched violently.

Dread was accustomed to seeing life and death, but he was still a little uncomfortable at this time, so he pointed to the corpse on the ground and asked, "Have you found out the identity of this person?"

"Back to Elder Medin. The scout respectfully said, "The skull has begun to decay, but its face can still be seen. Coupled with the clothes on this corpse, I'm afraid it's very likely to be Young Master Yamashita Jin!"

“...... Exposed corpses, and burned other people's - it's hard to imagine that the Forest of Nature could do such a thing now!"

Hearing this expected answer, Medin couldn't help but close his eyes and asked softly again: "How many bones are buried in the ground here?"

"According to a rough estimate, there should be no less than three thousand. The scout replied truthfully.

"How many people did the Chongbang family send this time?" Medder continued to ask, as he kept clasping his hands.

“...... There are a total of 3,000 magicians in the family and their followers, and there are more than 3,000 ordinary followers. The scout recalled, after a moment's reckoning.

"So, Chongbang should have died of the boss, lost more than half of it, and then fled in a hurry?" Brandon, who had finally recovered his strength, walked back and spat fiercely, "Then what do you say about all the destruction-"

"Second Young Master......" Medin couldn't help but remind, "Guess how many people are buried in the scorched earth behind us?"

Brandon was stunned when he heard this, and his face instantly turned ugly again.

Medin glanced at Brandon and said lightly: "Order, the whole army retreats ten miles, and then stands by in place." ”

The scout was stunned for a moment, glanced at Brandon, who was silent, and then said, "Yes!" and then gave the order.

"The elder is ready to retreat without a fight?" it was a long time before Brandon spoke again.

"Second Young Master, if it were us, regardless of the cost of casualties, would we be able to completely annihilate the Chongbang team?" Medin sighed and asked rhetorically.

"Yes. Brandon calmly replied, "But it definitely takes days of chasing to make it possible." ”

Medin nodded: "So, can we really fight the natural forest of Chongbang by some method here?" Now the old man is almost certain that before Gangu Yu left, he was by no means completely unaware of today's situation. ”

Brandon was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, "That's not a reason for us to retreat. ”

"What if we had a better goal?" said Medin meaningfully.

Brandon was surprised: "What does the elder mean?"

"We don't know what the natural forest has paid to annihilate the state. But we know that the state has most likely lost three thousand mages forever. ”

Medin smiled lightly: "Then the second young master, how much strength does the Chongbang family have left?"

Brandon's eyes suddenly lit up: "Now that the Sujili group of dragons is leaderless, Yanhua is mired in the quagmire of the flaming canine plague, and Guangyao City is attacked by demon locusts, only we know that there are only a few remnants of the Chongbang family left!"

Medin nodded, "That's right. Now it seems that the natural forest is clearly a difficult bone to gnaw, and the Chongbang family is the piece of fat! But now, only we know this. ”

"If we take the East Pole Bay, it will be much more helpful to the family than gnawing the Natural Forest!" Brandon said excitedly, "And if we gain a firm foothold in the Far East, then going back and dealing with Yanhua and the Natural Forest will be twice as effective with half the effort!"

It seems that the second young master has already understood what the most correct thing to do at this time is. ”

Medin nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, as long as you take East Pole Bay, the head of the family will only praise the second young master for his ability to adapt to the situation, and will never be harsh on you." ”

"Then what are you waiting for?" Brandon waved his fist, "Hide your whereabouts immediately and move east!"

Madein hurriedly waved his hand: "Second Young Master, slow down!"

Brandon was stunned: "What's wrong?"

Medin smiled faintly and pointed to the sacred tree not far away: "It's all here, don't you go to their door for a walk? Don't let those ladies think that we are afraid of them." (To be continued.) )
