This solid area surrounded by swamps, the underground cavern, has a total of three passages to the surface.

And this exit is located in the crypt passage on the surface to the north, which is not a frequent place for swamp kobolds.

Although more food can be found in this direction, those with long ears are also often found in this direction.

"Stop."

And at this time, a swamp kobold motioned for his companion to stop advancing.

The other two swamp kobolds stopped.

For no other reason than that this swamp kobold was the best hunter in their tribe besides Hagu, it had the most sensitive nose and the sharpest eyes.

"Taste, lots of ......."

The swamp kobold who stopped, his nose twitching, expressed what he had discovered.

It smelled, in the front position, the smell of other creatures.

Not the smell of creatures they've encountered in the swamp.

And, it smelled the smell of strange swamp kobolds.

Swamp kobolds have a smell on their bodies.

It's a pungent smell that's easy to recognize, and when you smell it, even if you're a swamp kobold, you'll feel it.

If it's a swamp kobold who is wounded and bleeding, the smell is even stronger.

Is it "Haku"? No, it's not.

Hagu's taste was stronger than that of every swamp kobold in the tribe, and stronger than that of the chieftain Demos.

.......

"Spicy smell, you don't need to look at it to know it's that group of black-scaled kobolds."

From the moment he discovered that the black-scaled kobold was approaching the stronghold from the fluctuating vision of the extended core, he began to rush back.

With the vision of the expanded core, the Black-scaled Bird-faced Dragon and the Yar Dragon are of little use as a vigilance, at most they can attract his attention during the battle and serve as a decoy.

This is also the reason why the earth line directly allows them to evolve artificially.

It's just that he didn't expect that so soon, a black-scaled kobold would come to his stronghold again.

After he came back, he thought about it carefully, and thought that the reason might be that they thought that they were in the same group as the group of blood energy elves, and they misjudged.

Judging from the previous observations, that group of blood energy elves was obviously stronger.

The behavior of the dozen or so black-scaled kobolds who evacuated when they encountered the earth line also made the earth line understand that they were inferior to the blood energy elves.

Blood elves are stronger than those black-scaled kobolds.

If so, then the black-scaled kobold should be vigilant and defensive for a while, and it is possible not to lean this side at all.

But now......

It's still too little, and there isn't enough information to form a stable judgment.

Don't worry too much about it.

The corrosive flesh and blood of the black-scaled kobolds, including bodily fluids, are corrosive, and even smelling their smell will give you a hot feeling of stinging in your nose.

It's the same taste as the black-scaled bird-faced dragon.

If he kills one of them, even if the black-scaled kobold can't make food and eats it to death, it can be converted into materials.

After all, the stock library is almost empty.

His gaze fell on the black-scaled kobold who looked like he was supposed to be the leader.

Kill the leader first.

......

Click-

It was as if the sound of gravel being trampled could be heard in front of the kobolds to the left.

The black-scaled kobolds jerked in the direction from which the voice came.

As they looked over, the voice rang out again, and one after the other.

Yet, despite the sound of footsteps, they could hear it—

There is only one.

There is only one enemy, which is undoubtedly good news for them.

If there are multiple enemies, they will definitely choose to retreat, and the leader of Demos also said that if they encounter elves, they will retreat immediately and inform the tribe.

But now, it doesn't have to.

Together with another companion, it can take out the enemy.

Immediately, it turned its head to look at its companion, ready to let it follow it on its way to deal with the hidden enemy.

Before, it also knew, the cunning elven shapeshifter had lured them apart and killed one of his companions.

Well, as long as they don't separate, they won't be in danger.

With this in mind, it motioned for its companions to follow it and act together.

One of the two swamp kobolds hesitated a little before agreeing to its command.

Advance.

The three swamp kobolds moved in the direction of the plural scent and the unfamiliar swamp kobold.

In the dark underground, several black-scaled kobolds cautiously leaned towards their targets.

It's just that, to its worst, the sound is gone.

The footsteps that were still obvious just now, at this time, disappeared.

The pace of the three black-scaled kobolds gradually slowed down, and the claws of the weapons they held were also closed a little tighter.

In the direction of the strongest smell, the leading black-scaled kobold advanced and was ready to turn and attack the enemy coming from behind.

Enemies may attack from behind them!

Click-

Sure enough, just as they had continued to advance for thirty or forty meters, the sound of gravel being trampled and rubbing came from behind them on the left.

Almost instantly, the leading black-scaled kobold turned back, and the other two black-scaled kobolds reacted in the same way-

One turned around directly, and the crude weapon in his hand slashed backwards.

The other, at this time, pounced directly to the right direction and made a tumbling dodge.

However, at this very moment, the black-scaled kobold who pounced to the right was just about to get up when he heard the hurried shouts of his companions:

"Get out of the way!"

However, before it could react, a dark shadow slammed into its body.

A blood-colored glimmer leaped up, and the black-scaled kobold saw only a pair of claws land on his neck as he raised his head.

In pain, its proud, neat, hard scales were torn apart by its blood-colored claws.

Between life and death, it tries to swing the weapon it holds in its right claw and smash it into the enemy.

However, at that moment, it saw an eye, an eye of a lizard head that was slightly narrower than a kobold, surrounded by blood-colored scales.

The eyes glowed with a blood-red glimmer revealed a tyrannical and bloodthirsty look.

The long, narrow head opened its fangs, one bite at its right wrist.

In the intense pain, it even heard the slight impact of its own arm as the flesh was pierced and the bone was bitten.

However, it didn't have time to do anything.

As it tried to lift itself up with its left hand, the assailant jerked its body around, and the force drove its unbalanced body to the right.

And at this moment, the attacker's claws and sharp teeth suddenly loosened, and his body twisted—

Syllable!!!

A long tail with a blood-colored glimpse struck it on its left hand before landing on its eyes.

It seemed to hear the sound of its own eyes cracking.

In the midst of intense pain, the last sight it caught was the assailant's claws kicking its body, flying out and disappearing into the darkness.....
