Chapter 338: Sniper in the Jungle Up
readx;
The night sinks like water, and there is silence all around. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There are no birds, no insects, and the forest is sleeping.
The moonlight shone through the treetops, casting a dappled glow in the forest. A small stream meandered out of the depths of the forest, glowing in the moonlight with a dreamlike silver light, as if flowing from a dream.
It's just that tonight's dream is a nightmare that can't be woken up from for Dean, the leader of the cat people.
When he finished examining the corpse of the cat-man warrior, he hurried back into the forest. At that time, in addition to shock, his heart was more joyful and excited. Because, in the two dead cat-man warriors, he seemed to see the legendary elven marksman's nine-star alignment.
In the history of the Cat People, there was once a great patriarch who was highly respected by the people. Because of his appearance, the cat people, who were originally weak in the jungle wars, gradually rose through many wars and became as powerful as the elves. However, in the later battle of besieging the elven base camp, he was shot through nine hearts by the elf queen using the nine-star beaded archery technique, and his ambition was unfulfilled and he died. The magical archery performed by the elf queen not only successfully shot the patriarch of the cat people, but also made all the cat people see that even if they had nine hearts, they could not escape the clutches of the elves. Narrow-mindedness and extremism overcame the cats' inner fear of this magical archery, and in the long years that followed, they waged endless battles with the elves. They not only have to avenge the dead patriarch, but also to kill all the "natural enemies" in their eyes. Strangely, in the years that followed, this magical archery of the elves never appeared on the battlefield again.
Dean believes that the appearance of the Nine Stars Alignment Archery here is due to the favor of fate. This enemy, who can perform the Nine-Star Aligned Archery Technique, must be an important figure of the elf clan. If he manages to kill him, the battle will establish his immortality among the Cat People, and he will even become one of the greatest Patriarchs the Cat People have ever seen. Dean even had a hunch that when he sent a duel blood arrow at the elves, the elven earth marksman would definitely find him. Although he didn't have a way to crack the Nine Star Bead Archery Technique. But with the scorpion's sophisticated equipment and a group of battle-hardened men, he believed he could defeat his opponents.
However, everything that happened on the battlefield ruthlessly shattered his dreams. He imagined that the master of the Earth Elf Clan did not arrive as promised, and what awaited him was a despicable attack again and again, like a hunter catching his prey. The enemy hides silently in a corner of the jungle, claiming the lives of one or more of his soldiers with each appearance. Since the enemy attacked, more than thirty of his cat-man soldiers have died, but they don't even know how many enemies there are.
"How did it become like this" Dean looked at the silver stream not far away, his heart full of anger and unwillingness.
The hunter, who suddenly became the prey, was unacceptable to him. But the dead cat people were cold corpses, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air. But he was constantly reminded that this was the cruel reality on the battlefield. In Deandi's memory, the cat people have been in the scorpion since they joined the scorpion. has experienced countless battles and battles, but there are few such tragic losses. What he has to face is not only the monstrous anger of his master, Arroyo, but also the severe punishment of the elders of the cat people. How could the short old fellows put up with him letting so many people sleep in a foreign land?
"Are you sure that the enemy disappeared into the stream?" Dean took a deep breath to calm himself down, and turned his head to the cat-man officer beside him and asked.
"It's the ground. Checkmate. After the last attack of the enemy. And it disappeared into the stream. The officer replied in a trembling voice. I thought of the nine feathered arrows stuck in the nine hearts of my companions. His stomach couldn't help but cramp.
"Have you ever been to the stream?"
"I took people with me personally. The depth of the stream is three or four meters. And there is a lot of algae in the water. It is impossible to see the bottom of the water. I didn't dare to send someone into the water to check. ”
Dean stared at him. Sneered: "It's been an hour." You're trying to tell me. Our local enemy after launching its last attack. You don't have to do it. Committed suicide by throwing themselves into the water en masse? Or rather. These spirits have become fish that can live in the water?"
"Nope. Checkmate. I think they must still be in the water. Wait for the next chance to attack the ground. These people have a wealth of experience in jungle warfare. Several groups of soldiers in the area where we were attacked earlier. It's all because of being too careless in the incubation process. Exposed his position. before he was poisoned by the enemy. Let's be honest. After you scared off those elves with blood arrows. No one expected them to come back. Everyone let their guard down. At this point. I have an inescapable responsibility. The officer replied in a low voice.
"Among them. Can anyone know the elven land nine-star beaded archery?" Dean continued.
"This is not clear. When they encountered them, the people of Shangdi died, and they all passed through the heart with nine arrows. ”
"Good. We'll just wait. Send someone to report the situation to General Arroyo. Dean said.
"What about them?" Sitting on the treetops of the towering ancient trees, Hyrum asked worriedly, looking at the quiet stream. Once the battle began, Liuyun climbed the tree with her, watching the entire battlefield from the air, so that they could rescue Ryan and the others in distress.
"I guess it's addictive to playing in the water, it's good to kill people at night, and it's easy to fish when the water is muddy," Liuyun said with a smile.
Hyrum sneered: "How serious can you be? It's been an hour, and there is no trace of your subordinates, and you don't have to bear it at all."
"What is an hour, these bunnies, I threw them into a stinky puddle during training for a long time," Liuyun laughed, "The cat-man soldiers were blinded by our attack, and I guess their commander is more anxious than we are." It's time to compare patience and will with your opponents."
"But it's not a good thing for us to go down like this," Hyrum said. Neither you nor Black Hawk can afford time. ”
Liuyun sighed helplessly: "You are right, every minute and every second now is extremely precious to us. Every bit of time that passes may come at the cost of the lives of the military and civilians of the city of Priselli. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the enemy chose to ambush us at this time. So, I have to spend it with them tonight, and I want this scorpion to taste its own blood."
"Ryan, they are hiding in the water at this time, can they spot the enemy?" Hyrum asked.
"For elves such as Ryan, who have lived in the forest for a long time, the forest has become a part of their body. When anything outside breaks the peace of the forest, they are the first to perceive it. And. They have good night vision, and even in the water, as long as their eyes are close to the surface of the water, they can see the scene on the shore. ”
"If the cat people haven't moved, what will Ryan do with them?"
"They're waiting. ”
"What are you waiting for?"
"Moonlight. Liuyun raised his hand and pointed to the sky.
The moonlight is like a demure girl, walking slowly in the forest. The steps are light and graceful. Everywhere you go, you leave a clear glow.
When she came to a bush next to the stream, there was a faint glow in the grass. Although the light is faint, it looks so dazzling in the forest at night.
"Wow"
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of water in the stream, and several black figures burst out of the water.
Whoosh......."
The silence of the forest was broken by the sound of rapid arrows breaking through the air.
"Ah.....h A cat-man soldier stood trembling in the grass with his hands on his chest, screaming in a terrible manner. His eyes were fixed on the few feathered arrows stuck in his chest, his eyes full of horror and despair. He couldn't believe it. Nine of your own hearts will be severely damaged in an instant.
The moonlight sprinkled on his body like water was also dyed blood-red.
As the cat-man soldiers fell to the ground, several black shadows disappeared into the water again.
Calm quickly returned to the jungle. Nothing seemed to have happened, except for a cold corpse on the ground.
"He will never understand until he dies that it was the moonlight that killed him," Herum sighed as she witnessed the scene that took place on the banks of the stream.
"The Black Hawk armor is not reflective at night. On the battlefield, any tiny detail can make the difference between life and death for a soldier. "Liuyundao.
Hyrum chuckled, "I'm getting more and more unable to see through you." But I have decided that I will not be your enemy in this life or in this life. ”
Hyrum felt that Liuyun and his team members were like a red snake in the jungle. They hide quietly in a corner. When the time comes, it will launch a deadly attack on its prey like lightning.
"War is the only thing that can make the most of the wisdom in people's heads, so I often wonder whether war is a good thing or a bad thing for human beings. Liuyun sighed.
"But I understand one thing, any enemy who dares to be arrogant in front of me, Lao Tzu will let him lie down gorgeously"
Hyrum felt that in any language to describe the man in front of her. All look pale and weak.
Dean also witnessed the death of the Catman soldiers.
The soldier's terrible screams before he died made him almost can't help but rush out with his men. But he finally held back, because he knew that the enemy hidden in the darkness was the strongest opponent the scorpion had ever encountered.
"General, why don't you chase?" The officer beside him asked puzzled.
"Chasing?" Dean sneered, "If those people are their bait, then aren't we chasing them to death?"
"However, this is the planned location for us to ambush the enemy. Many people are located near the creek. If you don't stop them. There could be more soldiers killed, are we just going to watch it?" The officer argued.
"Bear with us a little longer, there will inevitably be casualties in the battle, and we will give them revenge," Dean sighed.
"General. I don't understand why the magic armor worn by the soldiers can't stop the enemy's arrows, you know, ordinary swords and arrows can't hurt them at all," the officer asked, puzzled.
"Because they use the Magic Breaker Arrow, the sharp weapon that the elven marksmen use to deal with magicians."
