Chapter 484: The Black Forest (33)

PS: Thank you for the monthly pass!

There was a muffled sound in the battlefield, and then the canopy of a tree shook violently somewhere, and it took a long time to regain calm.

In less than a moment, the muffled sound returned, and another canopy began to shake.

This scene occurred at least four or five times, interspersed with a few miserable roars.

Leon rubbed his fists, and in front of him, the leader of the apes was lying under a tree, struggling to get up.

The leader's appearance was rather miserable, covered in dirt, with a lot of leaves hanging from his hair, his face was red and purple, and his nose and chin were covered with blood.

And its once brilliant eyes were a little blank, or a little dazed, because with its intelligence, it really couldn't figure out why it was so tall and strong, but it couldn't beat a thin human.

The leader looked around carefully, and in addition to the corpses of his kind, there were about four or five humans standing in the distance, surrounding it in the middle. And ironically, there are a few pieces of roast meat scattered around the land next to it, which should have been dropped by the apes when they fled in a panic, but they never bothered to pick them up again.

At this time, the surrounding battle was almost over, most of the apes had turned into corpses, and less than a quarter had escaped, which was what Leon had told not to deliberately stop the fleeing apes, otherwise the number of deaths would be even greater.

"Yelena," said Leon, "there's nothing going on here, you and Hilarily go and bring Erin and them back." ”

"Katarina, you ...... too"

Speaking of which. The leader of the apes, who had been temporarily ignored, seemed to see an opportunity, and suddenly he jumped to his feet and grabbed a piece of roast meat on the ground. Then he grabbed the trunk of the tree and climbed it at great speed.

Leon appeared next to the big tree that one person could hug, raised his foot and kicked hard at the trunk.

The trunk of the tree swayed violently at the young man's feet, almost arching the roots out of the soil, and the ape, who was climbing upwards, were so frightened that they clung to the trunk with one arm and did not move, for fear of being thrown out.

Leon wasn't in a hurry at all, he pointed with his hand. said: "Cheney, blast it with a fireball!"

The leader of the apes felt the swaying of the tree trunk gradually decrease, and it looked down at the ground more than ten meters away. He grinned at Li Ang and made a "hehe" sound at the same time, which sounded quite proud.

However, it caught a glimpse of an orange-red glow in its peripheral vision, and the leader immediately looked over. In its sight. A fireball gradually condensed from the tip of the weapon in the hand of a human elder.

The eyes of the tall ape immediately widened, and the eyeballs almost bulged out.

In the battle just now, the human used such fireballs to kill a large number of their kind, so the leader was extremely impressed by this scene, and its "hehe" laughter immediately turned into a panicked roar, and accelerated to climb upward.

The leader of the apes knew that as soon as he climbed to the top of the tree, he could use the dense interlacing of branches to jump to other canopies, and the forest would be his world. No matter how powerful these humans are, they can't do anything about it.

It's a pity that it still holds the barbecue, and the speed of climbing with only one hand is not as fast as usual. However, the speed at which the archmage cast the Three-Ring Fireball Technique was much faster, and the light of the flames flashed and headed towards the ape.

Sensing the danger, the leader was forced to throw away the roast and climb with great speed in a panic.

However, it was a little late, the brightness of the fireball had already enveloped its position, and the leader let out a roar, and his legs were violently forced, and he actually jumped out from the trunk of the tree near the top, brushed past the fireball, and crossed a distance of more than ten meters horizontally in midair.

The ape stretched out his hands with all his might, and there was a thick branch not far in front of it, and if he grabbed the branch, he could climb to the top of another trunk, and then disappear into the endless canopy of the tree.

The fireball spell exploded behind it, and the tree on which it had been standing burst into flames, and the fire quickly spread upward, and the leader of the apes could not rejoice, and in its eyes only the life-saving branch not far away.

"Melissa, get it down. ”

The young man's calm voice reached the ears of the ape leader, and although it could not understand it, it also sensed a hint of danger, so it stretched out its hand even harder, and the difference between its fingernails and branches was almost half a meter or so.

The next moment, a tall man-wolf suddenly appeared directly above the leader of the apes and stepped heavily on the leader's back, directly shattering its hopes.

The leader's heavy body fell directly from more than ten meters in the air, smashing a deep pit on the ground, and at the same time, the human wolf also fell straight down, heading towards the other party's position.

"Melissa, don't kill it yet," the young man said suddenly.

The man-wolf rolled over and landed on the edge of the pit, looked at Leon with puzzled eyes, and then quickly disappeared into the dense forest.

After a while, Melissa had changed her clothes and returned to her place, and found Leon crouching beside the pit, and the leader of the apes had just reached out with an arm outstretched, struggling to crawl out of the pit.

The ape was a little dazed by this fall, so it lay down for a long time before slowly recovering, but when it crawled out and saw Li Ang for the first time, it still involuntarily let out a roar.

The young man swung his fist and hit him right in the forehead, smashing him back.

The same situation was repeated several times, and the ape's forehead was full of hard packs, and its brain was dizzy, and it no longer dared to roar, or even make a sound, and just stayed motionless under the pit.

"Caterina, Melissa, keep an eye on it," Leon said, "and if it wants to attack, or if it wants to escape, teach it a hard lesson." ”

"Other than that, you don't have to worry about anything. ”

After saying this, the young man clapped his hands and turned back to meet the dozen or so people who had just appeared in sight.

The battle took a short time, and after Erin and the mountain people left, they took strict precautions according to Leon's instructions, so nothing happened at all, and Sophia was unharmed, and the whole operation was quite perfect.

Everyone was reunited, and Cheney's admiration for the young aristocrat was beyond words. The apes were mostly wiped out in this battle, and then the leader was killed, so it can be said that this group of apes was completely dispersed, and there was no longer any threat to their future paths.

It's just that Leon hasn't killed the ape leader so far, but has ignored it, which makes Cheney have doubts in his heart, and he doesn't know what the young nobleman has in his heart.

However, after getting along with each other for the past few days, he knew that the other party must have other plans for doing this, so he asked sideways: "My lord, should we hurry now and find a place to camp after dark?"

"Don't worry," Li Ang really vetoed his proposal, "Let's put out the fire first, and then clean up the neighborhood, and we'll rest in place for a while." ”

Most of the people immediately sprang into action, extinguishing the fire that had spread to the canopy as quickly as possible, and then carrying the ape carcass and clearing the ground of weeds and bloodstains.

Of course, Boris and Cheney also had to go over to help, but they were stopped by Leon.

"No," he said, "you have another mission. ”

"What mission?" asked Cheney curiously.

A strange smile appeared on the young man's face, and if someone like Caterina saw it, he would know what he was trying to do again.

"You take care of the dinner and continue to roast the pork," he said. (To be continued......)
