Chapter 49: The Tribe
"Huh!?"
After cautiously sneaking through the forest for nearly ten kilometers, Wang Ting suddenly frowned, keenly sensing a bloody aura escaping from the forest.
Following the direction where the bloody aura was wafting, he soon found the corpses of three human swordsmen a hundred meters away.
These three human swordsmen, led by one, have the cultivation of high-level swordsmen, and they can be regarded as a big man anywhere, even those two swordsmen, they are all middle-level swordsmen who have refined their strength into their bones, but at this moment, they are all dying here, and it is not difficult to see from the wounds on their bodies that it is the kind of elven archer who has mastered magical archery skills that killed them.
"This elven tribe doesn't seem to be weak. β
Wang Ting muttered to himself, and his heart was already more cautious.
At this time, with the extraordinary spiritual induction, a burst of rebuke suddenly echoed in his mind, and his mind moved, his figure had quietly floated into the distance, and when he felt that those rebukes were getting closer and closer, the exquisite nine changes were instantly cast, and after a while, he had hidden to the top of an ancient tree.
Looking from the distance from this ancient tree, he quickly sensed a battle taking place not far away.
A clash between thirty-four elven swordsmen and thirteen human swordsmen.
Even, while watching the battle from afar from the top of the tree, he could see that farther behind the elves, a small tribe had appeared, and the houses in the tribe were built between the branches and leaves of the ancient trees, because the distance was too far away, and there were ancient trees to shade them, the royal court could not judge the size of this tribe.
"Information is scarce, and it is too dangerous to act rashly. β
As soon as the elves reach adulthood, they have the combat power that is not inferior to the human formal swordsman, with superb swordsmanship and innate agility, the adult elf is stronger than the formal swordsman, God knows how many adult elves there are in this tribe.
Once the number of adult elves exceeds a hundred, let alone a great swordsman, even if it is a human swordsman, there is only one way to die when they are surrounded by it.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"
At this time, the battle below had already been decided, and after paying the price of two more lives, the thirteen human swordsmen finally showed a tendency to collapse, and the first great swordsman powerhouse shouted at the moment, led the team, and quickly retreated to the rear.
Thirty-four elves were in hot pursuit, and there was a great tendency to kill these eleven official swordsmen.
Fortunately, it didn't take long to chase, and these thirty-four elves hurriedly separated fifteen people as if they had received some urgent news, and quickly returned to the tribe.
It's just that these elves are in a hurry, and there is a new team of human swordsmen, forcing them to defend themselves.
"The thirty-four elven archers, most of them are equivalent to formal swordsmen, and the arrows they shoot are not a big threat to me, however, seven of them are not under the elf I encountered before, elven archers of this level are a huge threat even to human high-level swordsmen, especially there is a leader in this elf team, the physical fitness of that leader is no less than that of human high-level swordsmen, in the forest, even the big swordsmen have to be very afraid of her, when she retreated just now, it was she who shot arrows and shot a retreating middle-level swordsman, and the sword net of a high-level swordsman next to him could not intercept the sharp arrows she shot at allγ β
Wang Ting glanced at it and gradually retreated.
Such a powerful tribe, unless there are hundreds of middle-level swordsmen, a dozen high-level swordsmen, and three or four great swordsmen, it is possible for the human side to take it, otherwise, wave after wave of people come to raid, and it is completely sent to death.
No wonder this task is a group surname task, and it is too difficult for a person to complete the task.
"It is estimated that after understanding the strength of this tribe, those two teams will also think of the alliance. β
Wang Ting groaned, he was not in a hurry at this time, and soon, judging by the growth of the trees, he came to a pile of rubble on the outskirts of the forest, and quietly recovered his physical strength by standing on the pile.
He didn't know anything about elves, but he believed that some veteran mercenaries and people who had done several temple missions would definitely go out of their way to collect information on this.
But an hour, a group of four people had already come to this pile of rocks, and when they saw the royal court that arrived first, these four people were slightly stunned, but they didn't cause any trouble, so they occupied a place and began to eat.
There is no conflict of interest, and there is no deliberate provocation on the part of these people.
Like Wang Ting, who came to accept the mission of the temple at a young age, there is a good chance that he wants to try his luck, and the final fate of this kind of person is just to become cannon fodder.
Not long after the arrival of the four people, three more came, and the arrival of these three people attracted the attention of many people, because these three people were actually women, and their ages were between twenty-five and thirty.
The woman at the head of the three was a high-ranking swordsman, and with such a powerful combination, no one dared to attack them.
After two hours, two more people finally came to the pile of rocks, these two people, a man and a woman, aged around thirty, were both high-level swordsmen's cultivation, and judging by the demeanor of the two, the relationship was quite close.
After seeing the three women and the four people, the two took the initiative to nod to the two people, and the woman even said: "Since you appear here, you should already know something about the elf tribe not far away." β
"There should be hundreds of official swordsman-level elven marksmen. β
The one who replied was a man led by the four men, these four people were all middle-level swordsmen, and it seemed that they should be four brothers or a small group, and it was not easy not to open their mouths in the face of an inquiry from a high-level swordsman.
"Yes, it is hundreds of elven archers, elves I have understood, the forest is their main battlefield, an elven archer in the forest, the threat is not under a middle-level swordsman, hundreds of elven archers, among them there are more than twenty middle-level elves, four or five high-level elves, if we don't cooperate, there is no possibility of breaking this tribe at all, I have already understood before, in the idea of fighting this elf tribe, there are a total of three teams of people, namely the Haydn family, the evil mercenary group, and the core students from the five major academies of the Gushan Advanced Swordsman Academy, each team, there are more than ten or twenty people, The leaders are all strong people at the level of great swordsmen, and then there are small teams like us that are in groups of three or five or acting alone, these three forces are very huge, if we don't unite, it will be difficult to compete with them at all, what do you think?"
"You mean, we are united?"
"Yes, we formed a team. β
The female swordsman was blunt, her eyes looking at several people, as if waiting for their answers.
After a moment of silence, the four men took the lead in replying, "We have no opinion. β
Seeing this, one of the three women also smiled slightly: "Such a task is indeed not something that can be completed by one person, and our Blazing Squad has no opinion." β
"Good. β
didn't give Wang Ting time to respond at all, she had already spoken again: "Since our small group has been established, let's divide the interests, our two high-level swordsmen, accounting for forty percent, the Blazing Flame Squad all of you account for thirty percent, and the four of you account for thirty percent, as for you, what should you do, don't you need us to do it?"
When she said the last sentence, her gaze had already fallen on Wang Ting.
"Forty percent?"
Hearing this amount, the four men didn't say anything, but the high-level swordsmen of the Blazing Squad were a little dissatisfied: "Although the two are high-level swordsmen, our Blazing Squad has cooperated tacitly over the years, and their combat effectiveness may not be inferior to the two high-level swordsmen. β
"Not much. β
"Why?"
"Because of this. β
The high-ranking swordsman surnamed the female took out a book in her hand: "This is the information I bought from the mercenary union at a great price, and the information of this region happens to be available here, through it, we can completely know ourselves and each other for these elven tribes." β
As soon as these words came out, the female swordsman of the Blazing Squad fell silent, and after carefully weighing the gains and losses, she finally nodded: "Okay." β
"Then it's settled. β
After speaking, the female swordsman glanced at the four middle-aged men present: "The four have no opinion." β
The four middle-level swordsmen shook their heads slightly, and were about to speak, but at this time, Wang Ting, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "The information is left, you can leave." β
"Huh?"
The face of the high-ranking swordsman surnamed the female changed slightly, and a cold light suddenly burst out from her eyes, and the killing intent on her body was like a sharp sword, piercing the royal court: "What did you say? Say it again!"
"Whew!"
In response to her, Wang Ting's sword was drawn in an instant.
"Bang!"
At the moment when the high-ranking swordsman surnamed the female surname had just reacted, the edge of the Ruosheng sword had already carried the cold light of the concussive surname, and the sharp sword of the female swordsman was deflected in one fell swoop, and then drove straight in, stopping steadily in front of her throat.
"I said, leave the information, you can go. β
