888. Joining forces
Andrew's most recent assignment is to take the Territory Authority's surveyors around the copper mine on a daily basis, and the surveyors will use a large amount of data to check whether the map of Invercargill Forest is accurate.
However, the cavalry battalion will also carry out some urgent missions, such as rescuing the adventuring group in distress in the vicinity.
But this is a prerequisite for someone to make it to the mine camp alive, usually as a tribal guide.
Standing in the glade, Surdak pointed to the clearing in front of him and said to Samira:
"This time I need your armed Thunder Rhinoceros to help me transport a few large iron cans, these iron cans are still being built in the blacksmith workshop in Dodan Town, I want them to make it as big as possible, I guess only these Thunder Rhinos can carry ......"
Samira listened quietly, but her face was indifferent.
Her archer camp was set up at the foot of the mountain, around the eighteen thunder rhinos, and this time she brought nearly three hundred archers to the canyon slopes on the edge of the Dark Worm Valley, probably because the team was too large, but she was not attacked by demonic beasts along the way.
Andrew and Gullitham ran up from the foot of the hill with a clatter.
"Boss, why are you here?" Andrew shouted at the top of his voice, his voice so loud that it could almost echo through the valley.
When Andrew rode closer, Surdak said:
"I went to the city of Hylanza this time and found a way to deal with copper ore, so I hired some young people on the tribe side of the hills and mountains to start extracting copper sand."
Andrew had little interest in copper mines, jumped off his horse, and said to Surdak with some excitement:
"You guys came just in time, a ghost leopard has appeared in this area recently, and it has attacked four adventure groups in a row, I haven't found it for several days, and I was thinking about Samira passing by, asking her for help, but I didn't expect you to come too."
Surdak asked, "Can you determine the general direction?" ”
Andrew is very affirmative: "It was on the edge of the mountain in the middle of the vein and never left that area. ”
"That land shouldn't be too big, we'll take a look over there tomorrow......" Surdak said, nodding.
……
Samira squatted on the canopy of a cloud-like tree, a towering tree that could easily overlook the surrounding mountains and forests if she could climb to the top.
She held the Sky Strike Bow in her hand and stared at the movement near the valley.
At the exit on the east side of the valley in the distance, eighteen thunder rhinos were like a wall blocking it.
Surdak led five hundred heavy cavalry and lined up in the valley on the west side and began to search the valley in a carpet manner.
I can be sure that the moire ghost leopard is hiding in this valley, and thanks to the armed thunder rhinoceros, when this group of behemoths lined up from the valley, the movement was too loud, and the moire ghost leopard was hiding on the top of the tree to sleep, but was awakened by the rumbling giant, and it jumped down from the tall tree vigorously.
Although his body was as fast as lightning, he was still caught by Samira's keen gaze standing on the thunderous rhino platform.
So Andrew directly led 500 heavy cavalry to block the west exit of the valley, and eighteen armed thunder rhinos blocked the east exit, and the moire ghost leopard could not be seen, so the knights lined up in a horizontal row and searched along the valley carpet.
In fact, the place where the ghost leopard is hiding is very secretive, and the cavalry of the cavalry battalion went back and forth in the valley three times, but they failed to find the cloud ghost leopard.
It's a pity that at the last moment, it was the two-headed ogre who used his excellent sense of smell to smell the cloud-patterned ghost leopard.
- Of course, according to Andrew himself, it's meaty.
The moire ghost leopard lit up one after another, jumped down from the top of the tree, and its body stopped in mid-air for a second, and immediately turned into a puff of gray smoke, floating in the air.
Just a second before it vanished, an arrow of lightning slashed through the sky and through the gray smoke.
Although the arrow did not hit the cloud-patterned ghost leopard, the arcs of electricity passed along the gray smoke to the cloud-patterned thunder rhinoceros, and then in a crackling sound, the cloud-patterned ghost leopard finally landed on a huge rock, wrapped in arcs, and let out a violent roar.
The cloud-patterned ghost leopard curled up, and then suddenly jumped up like a taut spring, and pounced directly on Samira on the back of the thunder rhinoceros.
The ghost leopard thinks that only Samira can hurt it......
The next moment, Surdak took a few steps forward, raised the dwarven chain shield in his hand, and threw it out without hesitation.
Gulitham's good brother Brain Flower also threw the fireball in his hand at this moment.
The dwarven chain shield only swept the afterimage of the ghost leopard, which turned into a cloud of green smoke and disappeared again, while the small fireball exploded in midair.
At the same time as the fireball exploded, the lightning-like figure of the ghost leopard shot up again.
The fourth-level demonic beast didn't care much about this kind of powerful fireball at all, but the fireball happened to make the ghost leopard show its form again.
It was through this manifestation that Samira on the platform shot an arrow again, and the magic crystal on the back of the bow instantly turned into countless crystal powder, and the arrow was like a white lightning bolt that pierced the night sky and slashed at the ghost leopard.
The fast-moving ghost leopard was pinned to the spot, and the ghost leopard's fur stood on end......
Gulit chased after him from below, picked up the bone-crusher in his hand, and swung it at the ghostly leopard that fell from mid-air.
The moire ghost leopard's body was in a state of paralysis, and it couldn't dodge at all, and it was firmly hit by the ogre's full force, and Surdak heard the cracking sound of the bones on the spot, but the moire leopard hit back, and a sharp claw just swept onto the bonecrusher stick, and suddenly drew three clearly visible claw marks on the bonecrusher stick, and Gulitham was pushed back by a huge force and retreated several steps.
At this moment, the ghost leopard did not take advantage of anything.
Its body slammed into a loud tree, and its strong body suddenly caused the big tree to fly, and the whole tree shook violently.
From the moment the ghost leopard was discovered, it was beaten to the point where it was powerless.
It had already been frightened, where did it dare to stay in the fight, struggling to get up from under the tree, its body immediately became translucent, ready to use its natural ability to hide and avoid the pursuit of this group of strong men.
But he didn't notice Aphrodite behind Surdak, and the magic spell and magic rune culture became a huge magic circle.
A huge eyeball rose from the center of the circle and appeared above Aphrodite's head, and the moment the eyeball opened, a ray struck the cloud-patterned ghost leopard.
The ghost leopard's body was crumbling, lying down under the tree, and the moment he closed his eyes, he still couldn't help but roar.
The cloud-patterned ghost leopard lay on the ground, and Andrew rode after him, carrying an axe from it, and the blazing butcher's axe was raised high and slashed at the ghost leopard's neck......
