While the others were still resting, the emir took a few minutes to gather his thoughts.

This was not difficult for him, because he usually likes to think independently, and after going through the series of events just now, he sorted out the information about the monster in his mind.

First of all, it can be determined that the monster just now appeared alone, mainly because monsters usually act in groups, and once they encounter their prey, they will definitely rush to fight for it, but the one that Emir saw appeared alone, and I don't know if it was left behind or something.

Therefore, the monster that was stabbed in the throat by Sain and dissolved in the water should be the same monster that later attacked the village chief and soldiers with its sharp claws.

So you can imagine the horror of monsters, they will actually make the prey let down their guard by faking their death, and then attack while the prey is not paying attention, which reminds Emir of the story book recorded that some monsters have an IQ no less than that of humans, and can even speak.

In addition, the village chief and the soldier were attacked by the stream, but the people who stayed away from the stream were not attacked, which shows that the monster has water-related abilities and cannot leave the water source.

"Cut, there's a lot of nonsense, it's not that I haven't thought of a way," Grea disagreed after hearing Emir's discovery, "This kind of thing is generally understood by a little thought, but the key is how we should deal with that guy, how?" Sure enough, it's too difficult, and you can't think of a way with your kid's IQ. ”

"Don't do that, Grea."

Sain stopped Grea's taunts, and then said in a leader's tone, "Now that the village chief is gone, it is my responsibility to lead you, and now is an existential crisis, we must unite and contribute together......

"Tsk, okay, okay, don't talk like the village chief's old old-fashioned, okay? It's disgusting. Grea looked impatient.

"That ......," one of the remaining four minors said in a weak tone.

"What? Anything to say? Sain hurried back to the teenager.

Although he was exhausted from what had just happened, he had to smile in order to reassure everyone.

"Brother Sain, you see that now that the village chief is gone, the soldier who was going to take us to the army is also dead, and we ......" The young man winced.

"Oh, I see, you want to be a deserter, don't you?" Grea said maliciously.

"No, no, no, that's not the case......" The boy quickly shook his head.

"Needless to say, I understand." Sain nodded and said, "If you really don't want to join the army, you can really go back, I won't pursue it." ”

"Well, that's great."

"Of course, you guys too." Sain looked around at Emile, Grea and the others, and said.

"Really? Can we go back too? It was one of Grea's henchmen who said this.

"Well, the village chief is gone, now it's up to me to decide, and I promise that you won't be treated as a deserter even if you leave."

Although Sain said this, he still had a hard time in his heart, after all, if they wanted to continue their journey, they had to defeat the monster, in case they didn't have enough manpower......

"It's okay, let them go." The emir said with a serious look on his face, he understood Sain's doubts.

"Cut, what are you!" Grea nudged the emir, "Dare to make a decision for our Lord Sain?" ”

"Grea!" Sain was a little angry.

"Yes, yes, my Lord Theon." Grea put on a weird look.

"Anyway, if you're leaving, please raise your hand." Sain looked around at the crowd.

At first, no one raised their hand, and even the child who asked first hesitated to raise his hand, fearing that Sain was just saying that on the surface, but in fact he would retaliate.

Until another of Grea's henchmen raised their hands, and the others saw this, they also slowly raised their hands.

Now, except for Sain, Emile and Grea, the remaining six people want to go back.

"Is this really possible?" Sain asked.

"Well, trust me, I have a way to deal with that monster." The emir said categorically.

However, there is indeed a basis for him to dare to say such things, and he has already come up with several countermeasures based on the available information, and then even if he is alone, he can defeat that monster.

"Okay, I trust you." Sain nodded.

The reason why Sain trusted the Emir was because he had been paying attention to him since a long time ago.

At that time, Sain heard about the emir from the village chief, and was curious about this introverted boy, so he peeked at his every move in the dark from time to time, and found that he sat alone on the stone in front of the house most of the time, looking at the distant sky in a daze, except for helping others in the village.

Sain didn't know what Emile was thinking, but thought that he must be a man with a rich inner world, and it would be interesting to be friends with him.

Indeed, as Grea said, the village chief was an old-fashioned man, and so was Sain's family, who had hated the preachy nature of the adults in his family since he was a child, and although he knew that the adults were right, he was inexplicably bored when they said it in that cliché.

Sain knew that if he lived in such a family, he would eventually become that kind of person, so he always wanted to leave.

Later, by chance, he heard his father's conversation with the village chief, saying that when he had a certain amount of life experience and prestige, he would let him take over the position of the village chief.

However, the reason why the village chief agreed to him was not only because conscription was mandatory, but also because as long as he joined the army, Sain's status among the villagers would be guaranteed, so he should be allowed to join the logistics force, so that at least there would be no fear of his life, and when the war was over, Sain could rightfully become the next village chief.

Cyne didn't know anything about it, and he thought it would take a lot of effort to convince his father and his uncle, who was the village chief, but they agreed to it.

It's a pity that he didn't think much about it, but wishful thinking that he was finally going to be free.

In short, through some of the events just now, Sain was even more convinced that Emir was an extraordinary person, and he could not help but admire his unique vision, and did not look away.

Since the Emir had promised it, there was no reason for Sain to refuse, and he wanted to know what the Emir would come up with to deal with the monster.

"Grea, aren't you going back?"

After seeing the six men return the way they came, Sain turned to look at Grea.

"Hmph, this kind of guy hasn't left, how can I go, otherwise others will think I'm not as good as him." Grea glanced at the emir with disdain.

"But then I might die." Sain teased him, trying to take advantage of the opportunity to support the emir.

"Cut." Grea understood Sain's intentions and didn't pick up.

Sean smiled awkwardly, then said, "Alright, now it's just the three of us, so Emir, tell me what you can do." ”

"Hmm."

The emir nodded, and began to talk about what he thought was the most successful countermeasure.

……

After a few moments, the three of them assigned their respective tasks and began to implement the plan.

The central figure of this plan is Emile, and Sain and Grea are only in charge of covering. In fact, according to Emir's thoughts, it is true that he only needs to be alone, but since there are three people present, there is no need for him to take risks alone, besides, more people can also increase the success rate.

Emir is not stupid, he knows Gregya's thoughts very well, and he knows that he will definitely find an opportunity to frame him, so after explaining his plan, he said a few words to Sain alone, asking him to help keep an eye on Gregya.

"Don't worry, you just have to do it, Grea will leave it to me." Sain patted his chest, then looked at Emir's thin body, and said with a worried expression, "I should do this thing, I have more strength." ”

"No, no, this is my plan after all, I must take responsibility, and if I fail, I will not let you suffer losses."

“…… All right. ”

Hearing him say this, Sain couldn't help but be even more awe-struck, so he nodded and handed him the spear in his hand.

"There's no need for that," Emir refused, "it's better to leave it to you to deliver the final blow to the monster, and it can be used against Grea if necessary." ”

"Hehe, you don't need this to deal with Graya, and I'll tell you the truth, he's actually not that bad, you'll understand when we get along for a long time."

"Perhaps," said the emir, noncommittal, "but it is necessary to guard against people, not to mention that it is still a matter of life and death for us, so we must be careful." ”

“…… Oh well, I got it. ”

After speaking to Sain, the Emir looked around and began to search for something in the grass.

After a while, he collected several rattan sticks, and then weaved them into a simple armor, then found two flat stone slabs and inserted them between the rattan armor, and finally fixed them inside his clothes, so that the chest and back would not be pierced by the monster's claws.

Although I don't know why the monster's attack is like that, it is clear that the head and heart are the key points of humans, but the emir has not thought about it so much for the time being, and it will only be a waste of time to delve into that kind of thing.

It is said that when he joined the army, he did not have any decent equipment at all, so he had to figure it out by himself, and he also made it because his father had woven baskets all his life, and he had been exposed to it since he was a child, and then he improved it himself.

Emir thought that this knowledge would never be needed, but he did not expect that it would be useful now.

After making the armor, the next step is the means of attack, of course, Sain's spear is the main weapon, but this alone can't defeat the monster, because before Sain obviously pierced the monster's throat, but still didn't kill it, and then tried to hit the claw with the spear, but it was easily dodged.

This shows that the key point of the monster is not the throat at all, or, that is just a trick, the real throat is not actually in that part, through the previous observation, he can only choose the part that looks like the mouth, because there is a viscous liquid flowing out there, even if it is not a mouth, it must be an important organ, in short, the next step is to attack there, and before that, the monster must not be able to move freely, otherwise no matter how powerful the weapon is, it will be useless.

The idea of the emir was to weave a rope out of rattan, tie one end to a tree and make a lasso at the other, and once the claws of the monster were lured, the lasso would be attached.

When everything was ready, the emir began to walk towards the stream, and the other two followed not far behind. Sain clenched his spear in both hands, ready to rush over and plunge the spear into the monster's vital point.

As the emir drew closer to the stream, he saw that the village chief was still lying in the water, and that his body had no external wounds except for a penetrating wound on his chest.

As the emir approached, the surface of the creek began to ripple, and the tip of the monster's claws crept out of the water.

Emir did not stop, but ran towards the village chief quickly, and he deliberately showed that he was desperate, just like Sain, who was bent on avenging the village chief, so that the monster could let down his guard, which could be regarded as treating others in his own way.

Sure enough, without hesitation, the claw immediately reached out of the water and flew towards the emir like an arrow.

"Smack!"

The claws stabbed on the rattan armor that held the stone slabs with a crisp sound, and you can imagine how strong the monster was, and then almost at the same time, Emir took out the lasso and put it on the claw accurately, and the other end of the lasso was already tied to the trunk of a large tree in advance.

The monster found out about the trick and wanted to go back, but it couldn't break free of the noose no matter what, so it could only keep struggling.

Sain was waiting for this moment, and he asked Grea to pull the rope so that the monster would not escape, and he himself took the spear and sprinted at a speed of 100 meters to the stream.

Unexpectedly, Grea did not deliberately make trouble, but honestly pulled the rope until he pulled the monster's body out of the water.

Cyne immediately aimed at the monster's mouth, and thrust the spear into it with all his strength, and with a long hiss, a large amount of purple-red blood erupted from the monster's mouth, and finally collapsed by the stream.

Sain's eyes widened, staring at the monster's body until it didn't hide in the water anymore before he breathed a sigh of relief.

But after a while, Sain suddenly thought of something, and stabbed the monster all over the body with his spear, and after confirming that the monster really had no breath of life, he turned around and walked towards the emir, but at this moment, Grea, who was standing next to the tree, suddenly shouted at him with a frightened face.

"Watch the back!"
