Chapter 102: Hunting (2)
By the time Hollis arrived with a large group of men, Ferdy and the bandits had already left. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Give me chase!"
Hollis yelled angrily as he looked at the dead soldiers on the ground.
Groups of soldiers rushed out from behind Hollis, urging the horses under them to chase after Ferdy and the others.
However, such a pursuit is doomed to be in vain!
In the open field, Ferdy and the bandits galloped on horseback. In the sight of the pursuing soldiers, only small backs remained......
After some time, the pursuing soldiers returned to Hollis's army in despair.
"A bunch of rice buckets! It's just a few dozen people, and you didn't catch up!" Hollis yelled angrily.
Ferdy and the bandits killed a total of forty-six soldiers in this sneak attack, and more than a dozen were seriously injured. Hollis has just lost 800 of his men, and now he has so many dead and wounded, it's no wonder that he doesn't jump like thunder!
After regrouping the men, Hollis's army continued its march north.
A large area in the north is the territory of the Hollis family, and Hollis has made up his mind not to get involved in the fight with other experienced people, but wants to bring the army to the safer center of the family territory, and sit and watch the battlefield!
Ferdy, who had escaped from the pursuit of the enemy soldiers, looked at the sudden increase of five hundred soul plundering points on the light curtain, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
For several days, Ferdy and the bandits continued to harass Hollis's northward march like elusive spirits.
Although Hollis strengthened the protection of the army, it did not have much effect. Ferdy and the bandits tend to be one-hit-and-go, and their fighting style is similar to that of "Despicable Theodore".
On the Ancient Luo Continent, Theodore's name has now spread among the practitioners. The grandson of the Twelve Giants of the Cloud Heights, Grand Duke Joseph, plundered everywhere, and although his strength was already very strong, he had never collided head-on with his opponent, like a cunning fox, wandering among the practitioners.
When the children of other experienced children of the Twelve Wealthy families mentioned Theodore, they often added many prefixes such as "cunning", "despicable", "shameless" and so on in front of his name, which shows everyone's hatred for him.
In the past few days of sneak attacks, Ferdy's soul plundering value has increased rapidly, reaching 20,000 points. Of his bandits, only eight were slightly injured.
The reason for this success was that every time he attacked the enemy, Ferdy would fight bravely, and after breaking through the enemy's defense line like an awl, the bandits followed Ferdy to consolidate the victory.
Eight of his bandits were injured, and Ferdy did not hesitate to spend 4,000 Soul Raiding Points for two Exotic Fruits to heal their injuries, and after sharing the food, the bandits quickly healed from minor injuries.
The remaining 16,000 Soul Plunder points, Ferdy didn't dare to use it again. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and injuries are commonplace, leaving 16,000 soul looting points, which may be used when saving lives.
Moreover, tomorrow the army of Hollis will arrive in the Blackwater Marsh. Beyond the Blackwater Swamp is a high mountain, and if Ferdy and the bandits continue to chase after him, it is expected that Hollis will be very happy.
Ferdy and the bandits' lair is Erlong Mountain, and they are well aware of the advantages brought by the geographical advantage. Attacking enemies from the top of the mountain will often do more with less!
So, Ferdy set Blackwater Swamp as the last battle. After this battle, Ferdy would return to Nana's military camp with the bandits.
Blackwater swamps.
Hollis's army cautiously navigated through the swamps. Twenty meters to their sides, in the mud covered with dead branches and leaves, short-tailed crocodiles scrambled to emerge first.
There are many such places in the Blackwater Swamp, and the Short-tailed Alligator is the undisputed king of the Blackwater Swamp.
The short-tailed crocodile is a fourth-level magical beast, and even soldiers should be on guard against. Because the bite force of the short-tailed crocodile is very strong, once it is bitten, you have to lose a piece of meat if you want to get out and not die!
Thousands of soldiers walked listlessly through the Blackwater Marshes, and no one made any noise except for the continuous sound of horses' hooves.
Days of harassment by Ferdy and the bandits made the soldiers miserable, and many of them did not sleep for days. Unable to catch the sneak attack, Willis and the others became more and more angry day by day, like a bull in estrus, with a short temper, but the soldiers could only bear it with their breath.
It didn't take long for the soldiers to get narrower and narrower, and many of them dismounted and led their horses on foot.
In the swamp, it's good to have a road. More often than not, it looks like a smooth road, but in fact it is a dangerous place that can swallow human life.
Just like now, not far from the soldiers' sides, there were several large bushes scattered around the stars. Beneath the withered bushes, a pair of flashing blood-colored crocodiles stared silently at the soldiers passing by.
There is no doubt that except for the road under the feet of the soldiers, surrounded by swamps, it is simply impossible to pass!
"Boom, boom!"
A series of explosions suddenly rang out in the swamp to the left and right of the soldiers.
The calm mud swelled up in an instant, and a short-tailed crocodile lurking under the swamp was blown out. But the incredible thing is that these bombed alligators only shook their heads in a daze, and there was no damage to themselves.
The deafening explosion didn't kill the crocodile, but it succeeded in angering these kings of the Blackwater Swamp. When they spotted the soldiers not far away, their eyes suddenly refracted a bloodthirsty light.
"Withdraw!"
A short-tailed crocodile quickly approached the soldiers in the mud, and Hollis shouted with red eyes.
The surrounding crocodiles were gathering more and more, and the crocodiles closest to the path under the soldiers' feet had already launched an attack on the soldiers.
"Despicable fellow, if I catch you, I'll cut you off piece by piece and feed it to the dogs!" Hollis looked at the menacing bobtail crocodile, couldn't help but curse in his heart, and said fiercely.
Confusion soon spread among the soldiers, and a short-tailed crocodile leaped up from the mud, baring its sharp claws at the soldiers with ferocity.
"My legs!
The soldier's wail rang out in an instant, and I don't know which hapless guy's leg was bitten off by a short-tailed crocodile.
The road was not wide, and even if the soldiers wanted to retreat, they were not fast. The crowd suddenly flipped on their backs, and a short-tailed crocodile wagged its thick and powerful tail and rampaged through the soldiers.
With the sudden change, the soldiers could only take up arms and fight. At this time, the orders of Hollis, the commander-in-chief, were not as important as his own life.
In a moment's work, blood rained down. A thick bloody aura spread in the air, and more bobtail crocodiles rushed from all directions with murderous aura after smelling the blood.
