76. Iguana

The task of the second squad is to reconnoiter the movements of the demons in the Sky Ridge, and also to find a suitable place to camp for the large army behind at the foot of the mountain, so as to avoid the evil spirits encountered by the infantry regiment that has opened a forest road.

Baron Sidney divided the areas of each patrol team in detail on a simple parchment map.

The defense area of the Surdak team responsible for reconnaissance and monitoring is located on the southwest side of the Motianling, less than five kilometers away from the large force of the fourth brigade to open up the forest road, but the ravines and valley roads between the mountains and forests are criss-crossed, resulting in this section of the mountain road is extremely difficult to walk.

It is impossible for the second team to run around like a headless fly in this dangerous forest area, and once they encounter an evil spirit, they will not be able to escape.

The cinnamon branches and leaves have a spicy smell that the devil hates very much, and this was discovered by a scout in Duke Ryan's Bussman Legion, and it is now widely used on scouts, but this cinnamon branch is not easy to find.

It is rare to see a large cinnamon forest in the woodlands of the Gandaer Mountains, and this time the soldiers of the second squad were lucky, the warrior Augustus accidentally found a cinnamon tree when he passed through a woodland, so almost everyone in the squad wore a layer of cinnamon branches as a camouflage.

He Boqiang was lying in the grass on the slope, and the two recruits were lying beside him, staring at the situation down the hillside with round eyes.

There is a not-so-wide exit under the slope, and after the reconnaissance of the team members, it is found that this is the only way to enter Moyunling in this area, and Surdak decided that the second team will hide here to monitor the movements of the demons in Moyunling.

Surdak divided the fighters into three groups.

Surdak, He Boqiang and two recruits formed the first group.

Red Socks, Bearded, Augustus and a fellow countryman formed the second group.

The remaining five remaining fighters formed the third group.

The three teams will form a cross-surveillance network in the area, and although there is a dense forest nearby, they are located at the top of the slope and can still echo each other from afar.

A pine-striped crested iguana more than three meters long galloped through the grass below the slope and scurried in the opposite direction of Moyunling.

The pine-striped flesh-crested iguana belongs to a rare class of low-level magical beasts, and what it is best at is 'stone skin', which makes it look like not only the same appearance as a rock, even if it is touched, it will have the texture of a rock, and this iguana has a strong endurance, hiding in the stone crevice can not eat or drink for half a month, just like a big stone stuck in the stone crevice.

This iguana is not aggressive, but it has highly poisonous teeth, and usually likes to catch some small beasts in the mountains and forests for a living.

Unexpectedly, this kind of flesh-crested iguana, which is usually the best at camouflage and concealment, actually has to leave Moyunling at this time.

The lizard skin on the pine-striped crested iguana is highly sought after by the small lords of the Grimm Empire, so this mild-tempered iguana is the kind of prey that can be encountered in the eyes of many adventure groups, and as soon as it appeared in the sight of the second team, it caused quite a commotion among the second group of fighters.

In the distance, on the hillside, Augustus gestured to Surdak to request the hunt of the crested iguana.

Surdak thought about it carefully, and also felt that this was a rare opportunity, and wanted to let go of the fight, so he left the two recruits on the hillside to continue to let the wind go, once a demon approached this side, he asked the two of them to warn in advance, and he pulled He Boqiang to run down the hillside.

The pine-striped flesh-crested iguana seemed to have the ability to predict danger, and as soon as there was a slight movement on the hillside, the iguana under the hillside suddenly fled in the direction of the rock pile hundreds of meters away. Despite its huge size, it is not at all clumsy when it runs, and it is as smooth as a canoe on land when it shakes off its four legs, and its body will jerk forward with every force under its feet.

Surdak didn't expect the loose-striped crested iguana to be so alert, and by the time He Boqiang arrived at the bottom of the hillside, the iguana had already burrowed headlong into the rubble.

At this time, Augustus, Red Sock, and Bearded also ran from the hill on the other side, and everyone saw the iguanas burrowing into the rubble, and they all gathered around the rubble.

Red Socks and Bearded Men are armed with alloy bows and stand on the east and west sides of the pile, and as long as the Loose-striped Flesh-crested Iguana escapes from the rubble, it will break into the range of the two.

It's just that when everyone searched the pile of rocks inside and out, the most embarrassing thing appeared, and the monitor lizard was nowhere to be found.

"Search ......"

Surdak foamed at a boulder and commanded his four warriors.

Augustus was the first to jump on the boulder with a Paglio spear in his hand, and the spear in his hand stabbed towards a boulder without saying a word, the tip of the spear pierced the rock wall, and suddenly sparks splashed, and a raised rock cracked, but it was not a loose-striped flesh-crested iguana, Augustus shouted: "Red socks, this old man painted the color, not this ......"

That's right, once you can't find a loose-crested iguana mixed into the rocks, the best way is to use a carpet survey to get rid of the rocks in the vicinity.

He Boqiang followed behind Surdak and drew the Roman sword from his waist, ready to greet the boulder.

But he was stopped by Surdak, "You are crazy, how can you use the newly made Roman sword like this, do you want the blade anymore, Red Sock, take out your logging axe......"

"Captain, this is ......!"

Red socks poke at the rocks like bitter melons.

"What else can it be, break the blade and go back to the barracks and then change it at the logistics office!"

Surdak glared.

"Yes, Captain!"

Red Socks hurriedly puffed up and agreed.

'Bang ......'

'Bang bang ......'

There is not much white granite on this pile of rocks, and a single axe can be used to verify whether it is a loose-striped crested iguana, and every rock that is smashed and cracked is marked with a mark, and after two quarters of an hour, nearly half of the rocks on the pile are painted with carbon black.

Straddled his feet on two mottled pieces of color, looking at the rocks with some moss growing in the cracks of the stones, He Boqiang rubbed his somewhat sore shoulders, and the wooden handle of the logging axe in his hand was shaken open by the strong anti-shock force, and the blade of the axe was even more cracked.

As the logging axe in his hand smashed on a huge rock next to him, He Boqiang suddenly felt that the boulder under his feet trembled slightly, and after careful observation, a faint magical aura emanated through the rock, which was clearly the pine-striped flesh-crested iguana, and one of his feet just stepped on its head.

At this moment, there is still a little pattern on the body of the pine-striped flesh-crested iguana, except that the body is the same color as the surrounding rocks, and even the mottled marks on the surface of the skin are exactly the same.

With this discovery, He Boqiang was not busy disturbing the iguana, but beckoned around, letting the second team move closer to his side.

Augustus was closest to He Boqiang, and rushed over with a Paglio spear in his hand, and asked He Boqiang, "Little Dack, what's the matter?" ”

He Boqiang pointed to his feet, and Augustus noticed the unusual rock under his feet.

Augustus raised the war spear in his hand with both hands, and stabbed it down to the rock under He Boqiang's feet with all his strength, Paglio's spear first splashed some sparks, the rubble cracked, but there was flesh and blood in the rock formation, but Augustus had limited strength, this thorn just pierced the back of the pine-striped flesh-crested iguana, although the tip of the spear was all submerged into the body of the monitor lizard, but in fact it did not cause substantial damage to the monitor lizard.

The boulder under his feet suddenly turned over, and He Boqiang, who stepped on the pine-striped flesh-crowned monitor lizard, lost his balance and fell backwards.

The monitor lizard's huge mouth full of fangs suddenly opened, and it bit down on He Boqiang's left foot, which was close at hand.

He Boqiang only felt that the monitor lizard under his feet pounced violently, he didn't dare to hesitate, and threw the logging axe in his hand towards the monitor lizard, and the giant axe smashed directly on the monitor lizard's mouth, and the monitor lizard actually bit off the axe of the logging axe, and the huge head shook violently, the axe handle broke off from it, and the big mouth opened towards He Boqiang again......
