Chapter Two Hundred and Four: Attacking the Gnoll Stronghold

The battlefield is all about intelligence information, and with the Crows fully in the air, Kevin is not too worried. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe intelligence of the gnolls is far inferior to that of humans according to the books, and it can be said that they are an uncivilized race. It's just that it's not hard to win them, but if you can't kill them all, you're likely to recruit other helpers. People here are unfamiliar with the place, and it is likely to invite unnecessary trouble. Therefore, as long as you shoot, you must be completely annihilated.

"The three cars widened the distance and kept it at more than 10 meters. Lynn, you look for a chance to get out of the car, remember to hide as much as possible. Follow the crows to find their stronghold first, and set up an ambush nearby. The others followed me the way I came, and once they encountered a battle, the three chariots formed a triangular formation, and the leader was the last to kill, and the others were not allowed to come out without my orders!" Kevin commanded calmly.

The parrot got the order and immediately flew out of the carriage to give the order. He has a contractual connection with Jack, but not with the little spoon car, so he can only fly over and pass it through his mouth.

After a moment, the parrot flew back, indicating that the dark elves were willing to follow the little spoon to attack, claiming to be a good elven archer and confident in their own strength, and begging for permission.

Kevin nodded in agreement and casually instructed.

The two light elves on the side couldn't help but ask, "What do we need to do?"

"You two aren't my subordinates, but if you want to help, I won't refuse," Kevin replied, "and you're in the car, help snipe the gnolls." In the observation hole, you can stretch out the staff, complete the spell from inside the car to the outside of the car, and the two of you can try it. ”

"It's ......," Wadler said, a little dissatisfied, but nevertheless, "it's up to us." ”

"I know what you mean," Kevin replied, "you hear that the Dark Elf seems to have taken on an important mission, and you don't want to be beaten by him. But the spoon ...... Ahem, there are already dark elves over Lin's side, and most of you will fight if you go over, so stay in the car. ”

The two light elves smiled helplessly, and accepted the proposal.

The three cars continued to move forward, and the crow's information kept coming back. There were about forty or fifty gnolls, and except for a few who had been left to guard the stronghold, everyone else had already arrived in front of Kevin. According to the report, a large pit has been dug over there, and these gnolls seem to be very good at digging the earth, and although the water elemental ignores most of the terrain, it is not flying in the air after all, and some places are still difficult to cross.

Generally speaking, a ditch with a width of about one meter and a depth of more than half a meter cannot be crossed, and the water element will fall into it by itself, let alone carry the water tank away. This tactical ditch is very effective against this kind of puppetry, and if one of the driving vehicles does not look at the ground, he will fall in, and it will take half a day to get out.

It's just that since it was known in advance, it is naturally not a problem. The three cars moved slowly, turning a dirt slope, and the road ahead of them showed obvious signs of renovation. Kevin nodded instead, affirming the intelligence of the gnolls, at least they knew that they had dug traps and covered the surface with a layer of earth, although they were so rough that people could see through it at a glance.

The surrounding gnolls have long been hidden, and Kevin even knows where they are hiding thanks to the crows watching. It is also clear what tactics they will play next.

The first car continued to move forward, kept moving forward, and rushed into it in a daze when he saw the trap. The whole car body shook suddenly, leaned forward, and the water element of the two cars in front fell into the pit, which was half a meter deep, and they couldn't get up by their own ability. And the water tank chariot was stuck at the mouth of the pit obliquely, the front section was against the front of the pit, and the water element behind was still lifting.

The first car collapsed, and the two cars behind it suddenly stopped. Kevin picked up the crossbow bolt and pointed it at the observation port, ready to fight, but unexpectedly, after waiting for half a sound, there was still silence around.

"What the hell are they doing?" Kevin asked the crow.

"I don't know," replied the crow, "they are still lying on their stomachs in the grass, as if waiting for a command from the leader." But the leader is not to give orders. ”

Sain on the side couldn't help but wonder and asked, "Why is there no one?"

"Could it be just an abandoned trap?" Wardler was particularly optimistic, "Your crow is mistaken?"

Kevin thought for a moment, and nodded: "Maybe they are still very patient with hunting, just like a beast hibernating, maybe hiding for a day or two, just for a good opportunity." ”

"You mean," Sain asked, "that now is not the best opportunity for them?"

Kevin shook his head: "You can think about it, if under normal circumstances, the head car breaks down, what will we do? Get out of the car to check, get out of the car to repair, the back car comes to drag, and the person in the back car gets out of the car to help." That situation is their best situation. I guess they also know that if we are in the car, then they are not our opponents. ”

"What then?" Sain touched his sword, "Why don't we go out and seduce us?"

"It's too dangerous," Kevin refused, "no one here has any experience fighting with the Gnolls, and the flail is a relatively unpopular weapon for us, so it's better not to risk it." ”

"What should we do, then, than patience?" Sain asked.

"If it's really tough, we're probably going to lose," Kevin smiled, "after all, this is their territory, if not." Let's go, there is no good chance, I would rather not make a move. ”

"Shall we go then?" asked Sain, now that the chariot was all diagonal, and it was uncomfortable for everyone to sit.

"Of course you can go, it's just the trouble point. Kevin grabbed both wands and began to adjust. The Water Tank Chariot is powered by summoning the water elemental and is controlled by four short wands, which can be controlled by a driver.

As soon as the wand moved, the two water elements in the back of the car suddenly let go, and the body of the car naturally returned to normal with gravity. Then the two water elements were changed to push, and the two water elements in the front row came to the stage slightly, and they actually pushed the water tank chariot through the ditch.

"It's a bit of a waste of hedrons, and the bottom of the car may be scratched," Kevin regretted, "It's unlikely that you'll give someone someone a brand new vehicle." ”

In a moment, the chariot was pushed halfway through, as if the bridge was halfway sandwiched on the ditch, and the two water elements in the front section were still in the ditch, Kevin simply dispersed these two, re-summoned the two in the position of the front wheel, and lifted the chariot again to move forward, and then the two water elements in the back fell into the ditch, and at this time, they were dragged by the two water elements in front......

To cross a tactical ditch, it is still more troublesome when people do not get out of the car, but it is not impossible. Seeing that the chariot that had fallen into the trap crawled out on its own, the gnolls finally became agitated.

But they were still only in a commotion, and the leader still didn't give orders, and Kevin had to be surprised that the opponent was calm. However, Kevin didn't want to wait any longer, and directly ordered the crow: "Find a way to lure them into attacking, even if they are exposed!"

"How?" asked the crow, "is it too dangerous?" ”

"Then you can throw something. Kevin casually suggested.

Then I saw the crow pull a piece of down in the air, and it happened to be poured on the eyes of a gnoll. In an instant, there was a large shaking of the grass over there, and Kevin didn't care too much, he shot an arrow directly, and a scream was already heard in his ears.

At this moment, the gnolls could no longer bear it any longer, and their leader suddenly got up, and with a crank in his mouth, forty or fifty gnolls rushed out of the surrounding grass and rushed straight at him. These ferocious gnolls were hideous-looking, fanged and strong, holding flails of various lengths and wearing tattered leather armor.

But Kevin was completely indifferent, and the flail smashed on the cart with a clanging sound, but the chariot was unharmed. Instead, many of them bounced back and smashed on their own heads. The flail is not such a good weapon, a wooden handle and a hammer head, connected by an iron chain or rope in the middle, the length varies from person to person, the main purpose is to break the defense of the shield, the wooden handle is smashed on the shield, and the hammer head can go around the edge of the shield, hit the opponent, and hit the head around the shield.

But this weapon also has a lot of flaws, and if you don't get it right, it's easy to hit yourself, and you don't want a sword or knife or something like that to go straight ahead. It's a nightmare for novices, so few of the Terrans use this kind of weapon, but for some reason the gnolls like it very much, as if it were their faith. This attachment to weapons is probably similar to the attachment to the sword of the Terran nobles. It's just that not all of the Terran nobles know how to use a sword, and the same is true for the gnolls.

Moreover, the flail itself is not suitable for defense, and it is undoubtedly impossible to shoot down the arrows in the face of the whizzing arrows in the car. Many gnolls played a ferocious character, rushed to the front of the car with arrows, and smashed the car fiercely, but found that it could not be smashed.

The two cars in the back were already in place, and the three cars were arranged in a triangle, each at one of the apex of the triangle, and then landed to attack. The jackals rushed over, not knowing for a moment what to smash the car, each looking for their own target, and swaying in the middle. And the three cars cooperated with each other, and in just a moment, they killed more than a dozen gnolls.

Their leader took a bundle of branches, lit torches, piled firewood on the side of the cart, and tried to burn it. But as soon as the flame touched the body, it extinguished itself. The body is magically resistant, and generally low-level magic dissipates on its own, so this level of firewood is not a cause for concern.

Not to be outdone, the staff took the opportunity to stretch out the observation port and used a twisting technique. The original grass on the ground suddenly grew and turned into vines that bound the feet of the three gnolls. On the other side, Jack also used a wind blade, slashing off a gnoll's head. In a trance, the gnolls fell seven or eight more.

Seeing that the situation did not seem to be right, the leader hurriedly shouted, looking at his gestures, it seemed to mean to retreat.

The three cars turned their arrows at the same time, and the leader still had some skills and tried to dodge. But the surrounding water element also shoots a salvo at the same time, how to flash clean. The water element shoots out a high-pressure stream of water, which has limited power, but it is also painful to hit people, and it has a great effect on hindering their movement. In an instant, the leader was hit by three arrows in the gnoll, and Kevin and the others were still worried that he would not die, so they shot more than ten arrows before stopping.

When the other gnolls saw that the leader was killed, they immediately turned around and ran, and Kevin and the others drove in pursuit, killing more than a dozen more. It's just that this gnoll man's speed is much faster than this water tank, and I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up if I want to chase it.

"What should I do, not all annihilated!" Sain worried.

Kevin didn't say a word, and opened the top hatch: "Sain, you come and drive, take the two cars behind you to the right side of the road, and follow the crow in the specific direction." The two light elves came with me, and we went to their stronghold. ”

After Kevin finished speaking, the person had already climbed out of the chariot, and the two light elves didn't have to argue, so they hurriedly followed, and then they were about to ask: "That ......?"

"Don't ask, follow along!" Kevin interrupted directly, picked up his sword and shield and ran into the grass, and the two light elves could only follow.

Kevin seemed to have entered his own territory, turning around seven times and eight times, entering the woods and out of the woods, jumping on the rocks and jumping off the rocks, the two light elves became more and more confused, and the more they walked, the more dazed they became, but just when they wanted to ask questions again, their eyes suddenly opened up. In one of the cols, there was a stockade fenced with wood, and a few gnolls were still active in it.

Kevin looked left and right, and saw that the little spoon and the dark elf were already lying in ambush nearby, and hurriedly nodded to them. The light and dark elves also saw each other, and for a moment both of them frowned at the same time, but neither said anything. The two light elves had a question at this time, but they also knew that it was not the time to ask, so they could only hold back.

After a while, a few jackals escaped from the gate of the village, and the village suddenly became chaotic, communicating with each other, although they couldn't understand it, but they could basically guess it. After losing the battle and the death of the leader, it was naturally a big deal for them.

Kevin just stared at the gate, silently counting how many gnolls had returned: "7, 8, 9......"

In order to annihilate the opponent, Kevin counted almost the whole time, but for some reason, there was always one less in the end. Feeling out the pocket watch, everyone had been in ambush for an hour, and at the speed of the jackal, they should have already fled back here. Hurriedly asked the crow again, but the crow is not omnipotent.

"I'm just a bird, old man, and I can see it in the sky, but I can't keep an eye on everyone. The crow also expressed helplessness.

Seeing that these gnolls were panicked, and many of them seemed to be arguing fiercely, Kevin felt that there was really no chance to be lost, one less is one less, and there was not so much time to hesitate. The long sword waved: "Up!"

Kevin took the lead, flew over the fence, and slashed a gnolls to death with a sneak attack. The whole village suddenly boiled, and the other party subconsciously picked up the guys and surrounded them. The two light elves hurriedly used the winding technique, and the gnolls in the front row were suddenly entangled in their legs and their movements were blocked.

At this time, behind the gnoll, the little spoon had already flown up. The spears swept in, and the gnolls who were still facing away from her at this time had the ability to resist, and immediately fell in rows. This gnoll does not rely on fighting spirit, but on brute force, and its level is about the same as the red fighting spirit of the human race, and some may be slightly higher, but the little spoon uses yellow fighting spirit against them, which is simply slaughter.

Kevin only wanted to be annihilated, so he used himself to attract their attention, and if he really just defeated them, the small spoon alone was enough.

The screams in the village continued, and the jackals had already lost their fighting spirit, leaving dozens of corpses behind, and immediately scattered in all directions. But with Little Spoon, Kevin, and the Light and Dark Elves guarding them, there are really few directions they can escape. A few fled halfway through, were killed by arrows, chased and stabbed to death by the little spoon, and tripped up by the entanglement......

Only three or five men managed to escape from the stockade with the help of their familiarity with the terrain and luck, but this was also within Kevin's calculations, and they bumped into Sain coming with a water tank and were killed by random arrows on the spot.

It was quiet, and all the screams in the village finally disappeared, leaving only a corpse, a place of blood and a mess. Kevin breathed a sigh of relief and comforted everyone and assigned the next task: "It's great that everyone has worked hard and is not injured." But I still escaped one, and I can't find it yet, forget it. Everyone inserted the corpse again to prevent it from dying. ”

"This ......" The two light elves suddenly looked conflicted.

Kevin knew what they wanted to say, so he simply pretended to be stupid: "Ah, the two allies helped a lot today, and the wood spell is very useful, thank you very much." ”

"You're welcome, it's just ......," Waldler said again, "Forget it, we're tired, let's sit down and rest for a while." ”

"No problem. ”

Suddenly, Xiao Jiu found something: "Hey, there is a baby under this corpse, a little jackal, quite cute." "Many ferocious animals have a cute appearance when they are young, and the same is true for the gnoll.

"Shall I see?" the Dark Elf walked over, took the little gnoll, and stabbed him to death.

Everyone was stunned, and then they saw the two light elves get up angrily: "You are simply a demon!"

"What's wrong?" the dark elf casually threw the baby's corpse on the ground, a look of disdain.
