Chapter Forty-Eight: Come Back (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
At this time, the atmosphere of the entire gnoll team was not good, and the gnoll leader Gulza walked in the front without saying a word, his steps were very hurried, and his fierce eyes revealed that his mood was not so stable at this time.
Early in the morning, the whole tribe went out to find the members of the hunting team who did not return yesterday, and through the sensitive nose of the gnolls and a large amount of manpower, they successfully found the corpses of those gnolls.
However, just as Gulza ordered his gnolls to carry the corpses out and prepare to find a place to bury them, the gnolls who were constantly searching were subjected to various traps, which made the entire gnoll team suddenly have dozens more wounded.
And they, not even the shadow of the enemy. It can only be judged by the wounds on the dead gnolls that they died from the bow and arrow.
This had to make Gulza, who heard the news, furious, and after lashing out at his subordinates, Gulza still ordered his subordinates to bring the corpses and wounded back to the tribe.
The incessant wails of the wounded made the atmosphere of the whole team oppressive, as they suspected that the elves had noticed them, and the strength of the elves penetrated into the hearts of these races in the elves' sphere of influence.
And the leader of the gnolls, Gulza, doesn't think so, he is a gnolll who knows how to think, he knows the power of the elves, and he also knows that the elves are extremely arrogant, and they may see that the gnolls are not pleasing to the eye, and then easily kill those gnolls.
But they will never specifically look for such small-scale gnolls and place traps around their corpses, because their great strength can easily crush their own tribe.
These are definitely the work of some cowardly fellows who don't dare to fight the great gnoll warriors head-on, and most likely the weak humans.
Gulza has made up his mind to completely wipe out these humans who dare to sneak up on the gnolls, otherwise it will be too shameful for the gnolls to invade the human towns and end up with his tribe being attacked by humans.
Gurza is ready to refine, and then launch a reconnaissance, and must destroy these hiding rats!
And he never expected that the leader of the rats he was thinking of hiding was beside him, quietly peeking at their reality.
Giggs silently counted the number of gnolls, the exact number could not be obtained, but the approximate number could still be figured out.
"There are about seven hundred gnolls, which is ~ a bit too much~" Giggs thought to himself.
"But now that I've figured out the number of these gnolls, it's going to be a big help for the next move, so now, it's time for me to retreat!" Giggs crawled on the ground, little by little, backing back.
Out of the jackal's sight, Giggs scrambled to his feet, ripped off his disguise, and ran in the direction he had left in the morning.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Everyone in the garrison hidden in the woods behind Dead Leaf Town looked into the distance with some anxiety at this time, it was almost dark, and their commander had not returned since he left in the morning.
Gibson spun around the open space in a little irritably, irritably skimmed off a branch, and fell to the ground with a "snap".
"No, I'm going to find the boss~" Gibson made a frizzy decision, and a team leader beside him persuaded him.
"Squadron leader, the boss is so strong in his skills, those jackals must not be able to find him~ What's more, if you go to find the boss, then the brothers don't know what to do here~"
Gibson smiled bitterly, "I don't know this, it's just that the boss hasn't come back, I always have no bottom in my heart, what's more, I don't know what to do myself, and the commander of a team is only the boss when fighting~"
The captain of the squad who spoke out was also silent, and they found that once Giggs was no longer with them, they seemed to have no backbone, and they didn't know what they were going to do.
At this time, a reconnaissance sentry hurriedly ran over and said to Gibson excitedly, "Squadron leader, the boss is back, I will hurry over to inform you, Ryan is still there to guard~"
"Well done~" Gibson said excitedly, and hearing the words of this guard, the rest of the people also lifted their spirits.
Giggs walked over in the dark with steady steps, looked at the group of guys in front of him who were all standing up with excitement, and asked, "Why are you standing up, take a day off today and exercise now?"
Gibson walked up with a smile, not at all able to see the irritability just now, "Boss, didn't I learn that you were back, and the brothers were a little excited~"
"Cut~ Come on, I'll eat something first, and I'll tell you what we're going to do next~" Giggs sat on the ground with a very unsightly ass, took out the dry food on his body, and stuffed it into his mouth, he hadn't eaten anything for a day, and now he was really hungry.
The guards snickered, then whispered a bull.
After swallowing the dough in his mouth, Giggs patted his chest, took a sip of water, wiped his mouth casually twice, and lay directly on the ground.
Half an hour later, Giggs rolled over from the ground and slapped the guards.
When they gathered around, Giggs coughed lightly, opened his mouth and said, "This is the information I got in exchange for fighting with my life~ You don't know how bad the smell of the gnoll tribe is, I almost fainted to death in the gnoll tribe~"
The usual cold jokes, Giggs eased the solemn atmosphere.
"The number of gnolls is about 700 now, which means that our efforts on the first day probably killed a tenth of their population~"
"There are no juvenile gnolls in the gnoll tribe, but there are female gnolls, the specific number is not clear, but I think it should be less than the male gnolls~"
"The trap you set is very effective, you haven't seen a large group of gnolls carrying those corpses and wounded back, tsk, I want to laugh when I see them in pain~" Giggs said with his bad taste.
"Next, the gnolls don't expect to send out a small hunting party for the time being, but there will definitely be a search team for us, and our next target is them, using the camouflage of the surrounding environment, and then constantly cannibalizing them. ”
"Let's go back to where we were again tomorrow, and let the gnolls meet their 'delicious fresh meat'!"
