Volume 5 The Return of the King 336 Elite

There were indeed quite a few scouts coming back from outside, and then quite a few scouts rushed out of Sentinel Ridge. Looking at the scouts who had ridden away, I ventured to guess that the situation at the Defia gathering point had been dug up by them. At least they have a lot of information and are now closely monitored, otherwise there would be no need for such a large number of scouts.

And when I saw a team of ten people leave the camp, I immediately followed, and I was more curious about these people than I was.

As far as I can see, there are four warriors in this team, a paladin, three dwarves with muskets, and a gnome, a human mage. I don't seem to be able to tell what the character of that dwarf is, but the little thing is quite tightly wrapped.

I followed them from a distance, not daring to come closer. Not too close, but closer, I'm safe enough from them that I'm safe even if they spot me. followed them all the way to the town of Moon Creek.

I don't know what the mission of this team is, but this is a ruin, but this is an absolute area of Defia Brotherhood control. So one thing is certain, they must have enough intelligence to support them here, otherwise they will never come to this kind of place easily.

They took a completely different path than I had taken before, and they actually got into a huge barn next to Mooncreek Town. I thought they were trying to hide here, but when they got in, they didn't move. I climbed up to the barn and was dumbfounded, there was no one in the barn except for their horses!

Is that okay?

Could it be that there is an authenticity here?

I was shocked when I thought about it, this is really not a trivial matter! This can tell that the team lurking in does not know how many......

Well...... Not right either!

It suddenly dawned on me that something might not be right! Yuexi Town is still a long way from the mountains to the south, even if there are tunnels here that lead to the mountains? Besides, if it's really a stealth mission...... So these few people are obviously not enough, and what about those remaining teams? There are still so many teams in Sentinel Ridge that haven't been dispatched......

That means the team isn't supposed to be a decapitator. I guess so.

I felt a little better at the thought of it, even though I didn't want Edwin to be hurt in any way, and I didn't want to do anything to them.

After hiding the horses and stuff, I cleaned up the trails, and I went into the barn.

There is indeed a tunnel, I looked at the hole for a while before I got in, although this ladder is not long, but it is very dark inside! I don't like places that are very dark.

Once underground, the sound became so prominent that even the smallest sound could not escape my ears. I touched the wall with my hand and stepped into the darkness.

Somehow, as I walked completely into the darkness and walked for a while, I slowly felt that my eyes seemed to be able to see what was ahead, from blur to clarity, although all the sights had lost their color, only gray and black, but it was enough for me. This has significantly quickened my pace.

The group was going fast, and it took me a long time to catch up with them, and one of the people in the group kept talking, and I heard a milky voice. It's not spacious, and it's quite meandering, so I can't see who is talking. But I could hear the guy complaining, and it was supposed to be a girl. I didn't see a girl in the team who could make that sound.

After walking for a long time, the space in front of them gradually widened and expanded, and the ten of them carried four torches, illuminating a large area when they were no longer in a line. This is no longer a simple tunnel, but has become a cave.

I lost the sense of distance because I was walking underground, I knew how long I had walked, but I couldn't know how far I had gone, and I wasn't sure if I had reached the mountains south of the town. I'm just curious who dug this tunnel. It's definitely a talent.

The cave was damp but not muddy, and they couldn't get rid of the sound when they walked, but I was different, I kept following them about thirty paces away.

Suddenly they stopped, and I quickly ducked aside. Seeing that the human magician took something out of his bosom and looked at it, and then said something to the group, everyone actually rested in place. I was puzzled for a moment, but I could only see what they were going to do. But it doesn't matter, it's not a moment, time slows down in such a dark place, and I feel that time is very difficult, but those guys actually eat, and then some people fall asleep on their sides.

I wondered if I was following the wrong team and doing such a decapitation operation?

If they hadn't finally moved again, I'd have thought they'd all been dead. They were much more cautious this time than they had been before, and I could clearly see that they had landed much lighter.

When some light appeared in front of me that didn't belong to them, I knew they were going to be in the underground lair of the Brotherhood of Defia.

They walked cautiously, and the attacks on the working Defya members were quite clean, and there were basically no stirring or misses. Is this a decapitation operation?

I felt a little uncomfortable watching them kill the Brotherhood of Defia one by one, leaving corpses behind them, and even the idea of whether or not to kill them quietly occurred in my head. And this idea has been haunting me ever since I had it.

In addition to killing people, these guys are quite good at choosing paths, and they can hide as much as possible, after all, if you do too much of this kind of thing, there will definitely be problems.

Until I heard an explosion.

The guards not far away were attracted by the sound after the explosion, and the attracted guards began to stir up and soon appeared in a gap, and it was at this time that they quickly passed through the area in front of them.

I followed closely and realized that the explosion did not happen for no reason, and that the place where the explosion occurred was neither where we came from nor somewhere in front of us, but from somewhere, but through the earth.

The sound of the explosion came again, and when I saw them quickly pass through the front area with the empty crotch again, I suddenly realized that they were really here to carry out the decapitation operation, and the explosion was uneven, and who knew the illusion created by the team outside! Constantly create movement to allow the team to pass through the front.

That's a good idea!

But when I saw them come to an area, and it was obvious that the area was heavily guarded, and they would definitely not be able to get through, I was amazed to see them take out of their bosoms one by one! And when they pulled the lead, I was upset.

I've got to do it!

It's not a question of whether I'm safe or not, but this group of guys should be a stepping stone in the way of a certain team. Did they want to blow up the place so that the people inside would be buried? Or create new flashpoints to attract more people's attention?

Soon their actions confirmed my idea, and after they loaded the explosives, one of the dwarves fired a shot into the depths of the cave, and instantly crackling gunshots rang out, although the number of guns was not very large, but it was perfectly possible to act as a deterrent. Then came the shouting and scolding one after another.

The man from the depths of the cave was lured in, and I unceremoniously drew my bow and arrows behind me.

"Kill them." That familiar voice appeared in my head.

At this point, the arrow was already on the bowstring. It's been a long, long time since I've aimed an arrow at anyone in the Alliance, especially humans. So I aimed my bow at one of the dwarves with a spear in hand.

With a big head and a thick neck, he didn't wear chain mail, let alone plate armor, but leather armor by my eyes. I know how thick my bow can penetrate this distance. But shooting is not the goal, as long as I shoot, I want to be either dead or disabled. The helmet on his head was really ugly, and he didn't know if his companion had told him if he hadn't.

Defia's men rushed over and confronted them, not sure if they didn't think enough people were attracted or if they didn't detonate the explosives for some reason. And I wasn't going to wait, so I shot the arrow.

At this time, the trajectory of the arrow in the air is almost not parabolic, and the arrow shot by my bow at this distance is almost in a straight line, and the deflection will be very small. Although the dwarf's neck is not as thick as the waist, it is sufficient.

The people around him noticed it as he fell to the ground, and when the other dwarf turned around, I had put another arrow on the string. I was about thirty paces away from him, and I was in the shadows, and I wasn't sure if he could see me, but the second he hesitated told me he probably hadn't noticed me, but when he looked down at the arrow that had been stuck in his companion's neck, I let go of my finger.

The head was more visible than the neck, and he fell to the ground straight after the arrow, and I am sure it didn't kill him, but his face was gone.

I didn't give the dwarf another arrow when I pulled the last arrow in my hand and put it on the string, it was pointless to make up for it, he would never die, but he waved his hand when he fell. The magician beside him saw him.

Ha!

I aimed directly at the magician's back.

But when the arrow left the bowstring, I was shocked! Not good! He just bowed, and the arrow missed the target. But the arrow made the magician aware of it. She immediately turned around and a huge fireball appeared between his hands, and the fireball in her hand flew towards me as I drew an arrow again.

The fireball didn't hit me, she didn't even notice where I was just now, this fireball was purely trying to find me, but it also completely exposed her, this team didn't seem to be elite enough.

She was shot and fell.
