424. The End of the Headhunter
In the dark jungle clearing, the bonfire was about to burn out, leaving only a dark red charcoal fire.
The sudden battle caused the headhunters to suffer a great loss, and more than half of the headhunters were lying in pools of blood, while the Dark Moon Elf warriors who assassinated them retreated back into the darkness.
A headhunter with a sliced abdomen was lying on the ground, a piece of intestines flowing out of the open wound in his abdomen, he was covered in a large pool of blood, he still had his last breath at the moment, his hands tightly hugged the thighs of a Dark Moon Elf warrior, and let the Dark Moon Elf warrior stab the dagger in his back, but he still dragged the Dark Moon Elf warrior to death......
Other headhunters with the power to fight rushed towards the Dark Moon Elf warrior.
The Darkmoon Elf warrior was a little flustered, and he wanted to quickly rush into the shadows and hide, but the dying headhunter refused to let go......
Seeing a group of headhunters pounce on them from behind, the Dark Moon Elf warriors were as dead as ashes, and they could only clench the daggers in their hands, ready to fight with those headhunters who pounced on them.
At this moment, a small delicate hand suddenly stretched out from the shadow, like an extension of the shadow......
The Dark Moon Elf Warrior's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand, only to feel a force transmitted to his arm, and the Dark Moon Elf Warrior suddenly used this pull to kick away the headhunter who was desperately holding him, and his body almost plunged directly into the shadows.
The headhunters who caught up watched as the Darkmoon Elf warrior vanished into the shadows.
The Headhunter Captain rushed up with a torch, the black ornament on his face almost completely black, and he danced the torch back and forth, but unfortunately he didn't find the Dark Moon Elf warriors in the shadows......
The headhunters are the best hunters on the Pajisto Plateau, and they can sense the presence of those Dark Moon Elf warriors, but they just can't find them......
'Ah......h
The Captain of the Headhunter shouted in resentment, throwing his torch onto a charred tree trunk and exploding a spark.
……
Deputy Captain Tennison pursed his lips and glared at the Dark Moon Elf warrior who was almost left behind by the headhunter.
The Dark Moon Elf Warrior lowered his head, not daring to look at Vice Captain Tennison, obviously knowing what he was wrong with.
As an assassin, greed could kill him at any time, and he just missed the best time to escape in order to make up for a headhunter......
Moira sat not far away, and it was she who reached out and grabbed the Dark Moon Elf warrior, pulling him into the shadows.
Vice-Captain Tennison walked into the woods and prepared his next raid target.
The Dark Moon Elf Warrior breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly checked his left leg, which was a little painful, probably because the headhunter was holding it too tightly before he died, and several dark blue finger marks appeared on his leg.
When his companions walked past him, they all patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort!
The Dark Moon Elf warrior hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked over to Moira's side and said to him in a very small voice, "Just ...... Thank you! ”
"You're welcome...... We are companions! Moira also responded in a mosquito-like voice, her face slightly red, she was not very sociable.
They hid in the depths of the scorched woods, and did not dare to make any noise, for fear of being discovered by those astute headhunters......
……
On this night, a total of sixteen assassin squads infiltrated the Ghost Crow Ridge and carried out assassination operations against the headhunters in the Ghost Crow Ridge.
During the day, the griffin cavalry had already figured out the area where the headhunters were hiding, and although it was impossible to determine the exact location, the approximate range could still be circled.
In the evening, the two captains, Timothy and Tennison, led a team of sixteen assassins into the mountains on the east side of the Ghost Raven Ridge, clearing out seven outlying headhunter camps in a row.
Moira followed Captain Tennison's side, and with her skill and keen sense, she not only completed assassination missions with ease, but also occasionally extended a helping hand to her companions.
A month ago, in the eyes of these Dark Moon Elf warriors, Moira was a chick who would turn pale with fear at the sight of blood.
The current Moira is not only a member of the assassin squad, but also recognized by the Dark Moon Elf warriors for her excellent perception......
Vice Captain Tennison stepped out of the darkness and waved his hand at the Dark Moon Elf warriors lurking in the woodland, all in silence.
One by one, the Darkmoon Elf warriors followed behind Captain Tennison as they headed for the next raid location......
……
In the middle of the Kaltim Mountains, a rebel army of half-blood elven warriors emerges from a ravine.
As far as the eye can see, the western part of the Pagisto Plateau is a dark blue tundra with a slippery moss that blooms with small, yellowish flowers that only argalis and some rodents can eat.
In this tundra, there are only a few thorny shrubs except mosses.
Wildlife in the area is scarce, and occasionally a ghostly short-eared rabbit can be seen through a crack in the rocks.
Captain Helik and the rebel half-blood elven warriors sneaked into a valley, and on the other side of the valley a team of headhunters advanced south......
Captain Helik stood on the stone cliff at the exit of the valley, staring coldly at the team of headhunters with only a few hundred people, and did not give the order to pursue.
These headhunters maintain their physical strength well, they feed on some herbivorous beasts in the tundra, but they are not the hungry headhunters of the Katsy Mountains, especially in such tundra, the half-blood elven warriors have no advantage at all.
"Boss, we're just ...... Let them go? A half-blood elven warrior asked with some regret as he looked at the group of headhunters below the valley.
Helik didn't like the other half-blood warriors calling him 'Captain', and he didn't want that day when all the Rebel Commanders were sent to the Inquisition.
"Let them go, we don't have to rush to fight these headhunters, our main purpose here is to find a suitable place in this tundra and cut off the tundra on the western side ......of the Kartim Mountains," said Captain Helik...... When the time comes, all the headhunters who try to enter the southern part of the Pagisto Plateau will pour into this pocket, and when the time comes, we will only need to tighten the pocket and deal with these guys little by little. ”
Captain Helik spoke a little vigorously, and his eyes lit up......
The team had just won a big victory in the southern part of the Gassier Mountains, and it was a victory that had never been achieved before, and the half-blood elven warriors felt some uncontrollable impulses in their hearts when they saw a group of headhunters appear below the valley.
In fact, Captain Helik also wanted to rush out and swallow this piece of fat that had been sent to his mouth in one gulp.
But the news from those griffins showed that there was a larger team of headhunters behind him, and Captain Helik obviously couldn't take any advantage at this time, and he would be attacked from both sides......
……
Roy led the mine guards into Raven Ridge, which had been plowed by the assassin squad last night, and even if there were some surviving headhunters left, there was little combat power......
The team cleared the headhunters as they walked to the west of Ghost Crow Ridge.
As the only druid on the Mine Guard, Woods was at the front of the group.
He found an old tree in this scorched wood, and in front of this big tree with almost no leaves, Woods drew a magic pattern circle on the ground, and as the magic flow of the magic pattern, Woods stood in the center of the magic pattern circle and slowly closed his eyes.
Then, magic runes appeared on Woods' body.
He stepped out of the circle and walked over to what looked like a dead tree, placing his hand on its trunk.
Woods silently closed his eyes and opened his mind to communicate with the tree.
Not long after, Woods opened his eyes a little sluggishly, and he turned to Roy, who was waiting behind him, and said:
"There are at least more than 2,000 headhunters scattered on the Ghost Crow Ridge, they are scattered all over the Ghost Crow Ridge like scattered sand, and the assassin team has driven the headhunters here away last night......
Roy asked Woods, "Did you ask him where the nearest headhunter is?" ”
Woods pointed to the west of Ghost Raven Ridge and said, "Ten kilometers further, you will meet a group of headhunters......"
"Why are the trees here all burnt and have no leaves?" Roy asked Woods curiously.
"That's because the trees here have undergone a certain degree of mutation, and the soil in this mountain contains a lot of black magic breath, so the plants that grow from this land rarely grow leaves." Woods gave a brief introduction.
"So the vegetation here has been demonized to a certain extent?" Roy asked curiously.
"That's pretty much it, but the demon race has disappeared from the elven continent for nearly 10,000 years, even if a demonic plant appears on some planes, it's not an uncommon thing." Woods said to Roy.
Roy nodded and said nothing.
He stepped on the black, slime-like dirt and felt the mud under his feet become shiny, and even a little sticky......
The half-blood elven warriors scoured the scorched woods, came across some headhunters who had slipped through the net, and captured them.
Among these capture teams, the capture team led by Sabrina is the most courageous, they rush in front of almost all the capture teams, so there are more chances of encountering headhunters.
With Sabrina at the forefront, she decapitated all headhunters who tried to resist.
Sabrina rushed to the front in almost every battle, overwhelming the headhunters......
I met the headhunter captains a few times, and their combat power was obviously much stronger than that of ordinary headhunters, but in front of Sabrina, these headhunter captains hardly bargained......
Sabrina slashed her heavy sword at the headhunter captain, and an ice spear flew out from behind the sword.
The Headhunter Captain was stabbed with an ice spear, covered in a layer of frost, and as his steps slowly became sluggish, a group of half-blood elven warriors rushed out from behind, killing the headhunter.
There are many headhunters on the Ghost Crow Ridge, but there are really not many headhunters in this area on the east side who can still have the strength to continue fighting after a whole night of assassination.
And just like that, at night, the assassin squad sneaked up on the headhunter camp.
During the day, Roy led the half-blood elf warriors to attack from the front, occupying the Ghost Raven Ridge little by little.
In just one week, Roy's mine guards had taken over the eastern side of Ghost Crow Ridge......
The half-blood elven warriors in the mine guards slowly adapted to the battle with the headhunters, and as the material resources of Padstow City continued to be sent to the second mine on the Padesto Plateau, and then transported from the second mine to the side of the Crow Ridge.
With the armaments and supplies supported by the Silver Pegasus Legion, Roy finally held the east side of Ghost Raven Ridge.
After each fierce battle, the woods were littered with corpses, which flowed a lot of blood and seeped into the oily black soil......
Sometimes, Roy found that some of the campfires had black soil burning underneath.
In these ghostly woods, almost every inch of land bears the traces of the bloody battles of headhunters and half-blood elven warriors......
After some headhunters are killed in battle, the half-blood elves will dig a deep pit directly under the tree and bury them under the tree.
With the full support of the Assassin Squad and the Griffons, the battle on Crow Ridge went well.
The Earth Storm Bear in Woods' form climbed onto a boulder and watched the defeated headhunters leave with a cold look.
The two main reasons for the defeat of the headhunters this time were that all the headhunter squads were too scattered, and these headhunter squads were almost all fighting separately when fighting the mine guards, and rarely joined forces to resist the attack of the half-blood elves.
The second point is that the assassin team successfully disrupted and destroyed the headhunters' will to fight almost first......
By the time the mine guards were in battle, the headhunters were in a hurry and were soon overwhelmed by the half-blood elven warriors.
News of the fierce battle between the Half-Blood Elf warriors and the Headhunters in the Ghost Raven Ridge quickly spread in the southern part of the plateau, and some of the Half-Blood Elves fled to the Ghost Raven Ridge to join Roy's mine guards.
Roy's Mine Guards successfully stopped headhunters trying to enter the southern plateau from the Kaltim Mountains.
……
At this time, Captain Helik led the rebel fighters and engaged in several fierce battles with the headhunters on a hillside in the middle of the Kaltim Mountains.
The headhunters had all arrived from the northern part of the Pagisto Plateau, and as they headed south along the Kaltim Mountains, they were intercepted by the half-blood elven warriors on the way, and after some probing, they immediately left the battle.
Then these headhunters hid in the mountain col, and it became more difficult for Captain Helik to engage these headhunters head-on.
Headhunters are almost constantly fighting in this rolling mountainous terrain......
Fortunately, Captain Helik was accompanied by two griffon cavalry, who were able to constantly probe the headhunters in the air, and prevent Captain Helik from falling into the traps laid by the headhunters.
Rebel fighters failed to defeat the Headhunters in the middle of the Kaltim Mountains, and thus failed to form a siege with the mine guards of Roy in the southern Kaltim Mountains.
As the half-blood elves on the plateau continue to pour into the Ghost Crow Ridge.
In just two weeks, nearly 4,000 half-blood elves had gathered on this side of Ghost Crow Mountain......
