344. The Disappearing Headhunter
The sky lit up with a white fish's belly, the night sky was still dark blue, and the stars were gradually fading.
The shouts and killings outside, the strange roars of the plateau headhunters, the shouts of the elven warriors, the neighing of the war horses, and the clashing of weapons were intertwined, chaotic and panicked.
The Grantham mine owner lifted the blanket and got up from his mattress.
He hid in the door of the tent and peeked out for a moment, then pulled a small golden dagger out of his trouser leg.
The two wives of the Grantham mine owners trembled with fear and hurriedly hid in the corners of their tents.
The two elven warriors were behind the Grantham mine owner, and they were also peeking outside, some highland hunters were constantly tumbling and jumping in the camp with their dexterous skills, they were wearing gray leather armor, and they could easily turn into a gray shadow when they ran.
Those elven warriors rushed to meet the battle, and from time to time there would be elven warriors covered in blood, covering Bai Huahua's body with thin sheets.
The owner of the Grantham mine had apparently seen the big scene, and was not frightened by the scuffle outside, but grabbed his dagger and walked out of the tent.
As the Grantham mine owner stepped out of his tent, a group of mine privateers also got out of their tent.
With the order of the Grantham mine owner, the mine private army rushed to the elven warriors around him, usually several mine private soldiers knocked down an elven warrior, everyone worked together to suppress the elven warriors to death, and then snatched the weapons in their hands and stabbed these elven warriors to death.
The private warriors who grabbed the armor and long swords rushed to the front, and they were specifically looking for the lone elven warriors.
A group of unarmed mine privateers quickly disposed of a dozen elven warriors, and immediately some elven warriors rushed to this side.
……
The Silver Moon Elf warriors discovered that the mine privates in the captive camp had joined the battle and pointed their spears at them.
Originally, these elven warriors were suppressed by the headhunters of the plateau, and these elven warriors with weapons in their hands were just struggling to support, but now these private troops from the mine suddenly rushed up from behind.
The elven warriors of the logistics regiment had just formed a defensive line, and they were instantly overwhelmed by the private army in the mine.
The headhunters of the plateau wore black totemic ornaments on their faces and carried war blades in their hands, and they were nimbly churning around the camp.
The headhunters saw the mine privates coming out of the camp one after another, so they went towards the mines.
The Grantham mine owner came out of the camp with a team of mine privateers, and attacked the highland headhunters inside and out, killing the elf soldiers of the logistics regiment in the camp for a while.
Covered in blood, the Berkeley Commander led a team of elven warriors through the camp in an attempt to get all the members of the logistics group to move closer to him.
The headhunters of the plateau gathered on the periphery to intercept and kill, and in just a quarter of an hour, the camp was full of corpses.
Captain Berkeley regretted it a little, and when he left the mine fort, Captain Yalig asked him if he wanted to escort him...... The soldiers of their reconnaissance team were able to properly send the logistics regiment to the valley camp, which was politely declined by the Berkeley regimental commander.
A bloody hole appeared in the waist of the head of Berkeley, and almost all the cloth below the waist was stained red with his blood.
He took out a bottle of life potion from his waist bag, bit the cork with his teeth, and poured it into his stomach in one gulp.
Then he took out a bottle of the power of the lion king potion from his magic waist bag, poured it into his stomach without hesitation, and kicked over a private soldier from the mine who was rushing towards him, and used the elven sword to wipe a wound on the private soldier's body.
The commander of Berkeley wiped the blood from his forehead and rushed towards the north side of the camp again.
Commander Berkeley couldn't tell how many highland headhunters were attacking the camp, but he knew that there were three hundred people in those mines alone......
The mine privates and elven headhunters join forces to slaughter in the camp.
Seeing the elven warriors who fell one after another, the head of Berkeley felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart, and it was no longer ...... Whether you can defeat the plateau headhunters, but how to escape from this battlefield where defeat is decided.
Several cronies gathered around the Berkeley Leader, and behind him was a large group of bloodied elven warriors.
The commander of Berkeley shouted as he walked, and soon reorganized a rout of elven warriors, and under his leadership, these elven warriors formed a defensive line in the camp, and everyone retreated in the direction of the valley camp.
The headhunters rode on argali and chased them all the way......
An orange magic flare exploded into countless pieces in the night sky, dissipating in the night sky seconds later.
"Leave the rest of your companions alone, keep up with me!"
The head of Berkeley shouted at the top of his voice, and then continued to charge north.
The highland hunters are like sharks surrounding a school of fish, constantly devouring elven warriors.
The Berkeley Commander hurriedly told the other elven warriors to continue walking north, while he covered the wound on his waist and stabbed his sword at a hunter who jumped over, and the sword grazed the hunter's thigh through the ......
……
The battle continued until the light of day was completely bright, and the elven warriors on the other side of the valley camp finally saw the call for help here, and a group of cavalry warriors rushed out of the valley, wearing silver armor, and pounced on the battlefield on this side like a whirlwind.
The Berkeley Commander stopped when he saw the reinforcements of the Silver Moon Elf warriors appear in view.
At this moment, there were already more than a dozen blood holes in his body, and the reason why he could still persist in fighting was because of his own breath, except for drinking a bottle of high-quality life potion.
Several of the guards around him were also covered in blood......
The Berkeley commander stopped, plunged his sword into the chest of one of the mine privates, and never pulled it out again.
The whole person fell to the ground, and the two plateau hunters almost stepped on his corpse, chasing after the other elven warriors.
The strange whistle sounded on the battlefield, all the plateau headhunters stopped, they called their mounts one after another, a large flock of argali, the highland headhunters with the heads of elven warriors on their waists, jumped on the back of the argali, turned around and retreated in the direction of the mine.
The plateau headhunters are like a whirlwind, coming and going fast.
The Grantham mine owner led a group of mine privates to grab some horses in the chaotic camp, and the elven privates all turned over their horses and followed behind the Grantham mine owner, chasing them in the direction of the retreat of the plateau headhunters.
A group of elven warriors who were lucky enough to survive could no longer support their tired bodies and sat on the ground one after another.
The reinforcements in the valley camp rushed to this side of the battlefield, and saw the mess all over the place, and there was a shocking scene everywhere, and the cavalry captain who came over for reinforcements hurriedly ordered his subordinates: "Hurry up and save people!" ”
Then he saw a group of elven warriors surrounding a corpse, which the cavalry captain had recognized, and the corpse lying on the ground with a bloody face was none other than the Berkeley commander of the logistics regiment.
"How so?" An elven cavalry captain asked loudly.
"A group of plateau headhunters...... I don't know where it came from, but while we were asleep, they took the prisoners of the mine and launched an attack on us. A bloodied elven warrior of the logistics regiment replied.
"Damn, you guys wait here for help from behind, we'll chase!" The cavalry captain was full of anger and led his cavalry to chase down the square where the headhunters of the plateau had disappeared.
……
The plateau hunters ran more than ten kilometers along the mountain road to the edge of a mountain range, and they quickly rushed into the rocky slope of the mountain range.
These highland headhunters are considered to have returned with a full load, and they can't even wait to run to safety, just to see the loot they have recovered.
The headhunter wiped the blood stain of the blade in his hand before putting it in its scabbard.
A group of plateau headhunters also jumped off the argali.
The Grantham mine owner led the mine's private army to follow him to the rocky beach.
A group of private soldiers wearing looted armor and holding standard weapons surrounded the Grantham mine owner, and with these private soldiers, the Grantham mine owner was obviously hardened.
After he dismounted, he walked directly to the side of the head hunter of the plateau and thanked him.
The Plateau Headhunter's ghost-like face, with an indescribably strange smile, patted the Grantham Mine Master on the shoulder, signaling him to continue following the group and walking into the mountains.
At this moment, the owner of the Grantham mine was already weak, and if it weren't for the strong support of the guards, he would have been unable to hold on, and sat on the ground.
The Grantham mine owner and his private army could only continue to follow the highland headhunters into the mountains, many headhunters stood on the ridge of the mountain, looking at the sky around them, once a silver Pegasus warrior flew overhead, the elven headhunters would hide in the shadows of the rocks.
Finally, after walking for a while, the Grantham mine owner entered a very secret cave.
Although the entrance to the cave is not too large, there is a lot of space inside, and there are stalactites everywhere in the cave.
Argali, sheep and horses can be led into the cave, and this is the hiding place of this group of highland hunters.
There are traces of life in the cave, and a group of highland hunters have left the argali, counting the loot they can have.
The Grantham mine owner dragged his two almost unconscious legs over the plateau headhunters one by one and came to the headhunter, who first thanked the headhunter with black magic patterns on his face.
The owner of the Grantham mine had seen the headhunter.
When the mine owners banded together and asked the headhunters to catch the half-blood elves, they had met this headhunter captain.
The headhunter also seemed dissatisfied with their performance, and said to the Grantham mine owner with a frown:
"How? Do you know how many outstanding headhunters we have lost when the Silver Moon Elf Legion entered the Pajisto Plateau this time! ”
When the Grantham mine owner saw those fierce eyes, his legs involuntarily cramped.
How did he know that the Silver Moon Elf Legion would run to the plateau, and now that even the mine was occupied by the Silver Moon Elf Legion, he was completely a poor homeless man.
"My losses are not small, my mines are all lost, and I just want to take the mines back, get back what belongs to me first, and then escape...... Are you interested? The Grantham mine owner said.
The head of the plateau headhunter rolled his eyes. Immediately said:
"Then it depends on what else you can come up with?"
Without hesitation, the Grantham mine owner said, "I can get a lot of high-quality gem ore, and if we succeed in retaking the mine this time, I can give you a whole large chest of gems......"
When the plateau hunter heard the word gem, he immediately came to his senses and said:
"Okay, it's decided, after finishing this ticket, I'm going to slip away, whoever is full of food will be the enemy of the Silver Pegasus Legion of the Silver Moon Elves."
Then, the head hunter paused again, and then said viciously:
"Wait until you get back...... Let's give these Silver Moon Elves a little more color. ”
The Grantham mine owner also said, "We have just routed their logistics troops, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of Silver Pegasus warriors looking for us everywhere and asking me to ...... We're on the cusp of the storm right now, so we might as well hide here for a while. ”
The head hunter calmed down at this time, and he said categorically: "Don't think about other things first, let's take back the mine first......
……
Roy was guarding the mine gates in the spinel mines, unaware that the logistics regiment had been hijacked by the Plateau Headhunters.
At noon, Roy dragged Lambo to practice martial arts in the cloister, apparently Lambo was his sparring partner......
The inside of the mine fortress was very deserted, and there were probably less than two hundred elves in the fortress before any reinforcements came, and these elven warriors lived in the huge fortress, and they hardly communicated with each other except when they were eating in the dining room.
Roy sat next to Captain Jones, nibbling on an apple, and said to Captain Jones:
"Captain Jones, how long are we going to stay here?"
"What's wrong, I'm a little tired of life here in the mines?" Captain Jones had an orange in his hand, and he said with a smile as he peeled it.
"It's just that there are too few elven warriors living in the fortress, and I always feel unsafe." Roy replied honestly.
"What's there to worry about, there is a Silver Pegasus Regiment on the plateau now, as long as we throw out a distress signal in time when we are in trouble, the Silver Pegasus soldiers will soon come to their aid...... Captain Jones said confidently.
"Yes, Roy! There's a Silver Pegasus warrior ready to support at any time, Roy, what are you worried about there! The other elven warriors of the 10th Scouting Team also echoed Captain Jones.
"You just managed the mining in the mine, and it seems to be okay now, and the gray dwarves in there seem to be acting positively." Captain Jones said with satisfaction.
"It's okay now, I hope the logistics regiment can bring some more rum over." Roy said.
"I've already mentioned this to Mistress Yalig...... Rest assured, it won't be long before the logistics regiment will be able to deliver the supplies. Captain Jones patted his chest and said, "Roy, I heard that Lord Arrig wants you to be the mine owner here. ”
