As soon as Sherman heard that the missing squad leader had actually returned, he was so energetic that he rushed out of the room barefoot without even putting on his boots. He asked anxiously, "Tell me!"

The soldier who came to report was panicked by Sherman and stammered, "In ...... At...... At...... Outside ......"

Sherman didn't say a word, but set aside the soldier who was reporting the news, and strode out of the courtyard. When he came to the courtyard, he saw several soldiers waiting outside the courtyard with a dusty soldier in his arms, Sherman walked up to a few soldiers and couldn't wait to ask, "Where have you been these days?"

The returning squad leader's face was full of tiredness, but his eyes were full of determination, he stood upright, and then said in a loud voice: "Report to my lord, I followed those people all the way, and finally found their stronghold." ”

"Really? Tell me where those guys are, and how did you find them?" asked Sherman eagerly.

So the team leader told the truth about his experience in the past few days, and it turned out that after he asked his companion to go back to report the news that night, he had been monitoring the movements of the mysterious people on the ground in the sky. The mysterious figures loaded the fallen soldiers onto a cart and set off again.

The team leader who was monitoring in the air couldn't help but want to rush down with the Thor Bird several times, even if his companion died and could retrieve the body, it would be an explanation, but in the end he still resisted the impulse and patiently tracked the other party in the air. Although the mysterious people knew that someone was watching in the air, they didn't care, and still walked through the wilderness as they were.

The team leader kept looking in the direction of the camp while following, hoping that a large force would come to support him as soon as possible, and if all the people arrived, it would not be difficult to destroy this group. When he was in a hurry, he heard the sound of the thunder god bird crying in the distance, and the team leader was overjoyed, and the people who supported him finally arrived.

At this moment, I saw that the strange procession suddenly began to speed up, and the horses leading the way spread their hooves and galloped across the wilderness, and the people who walked and pulled the carts behind also galloped. The men ran faster and faster, walking no slower than they could on horseback, as if they were not tired at all.

The team leader was very anxious, and gritted his teeth to urge the Thor Bird to chase after him, and the speed of the mysterious characters was really amazing, and he soon ran away and could only see a faint green light. The team leader said fiercely in his heart: "I must not let you run away today, otherwise how will I explain to everyone when I go back!"

He drove the thunder god bird in hot pursuit, and chased for dozens of miles in one breath, when suddenly there was a big mountain in front of him, and the group went around to the back of the mountain, and when he caught up again, he couldn't even see half a figure. Looking at the empty wilderness, he felt extremely lost, and after chasing for so long, he still lost it, how could he be willing.

So he crossed the mountain without giving up, and continued to search for the whereabouts of the mysterious men, and before he knew it, the sky had dawned. I don't know if it was his luck or if the group thought they had completely escaped from the tracking, he chased forward for dozens of miles, and found the group again in a river valley.

He calculated that the group of people could run nearly a hundred miles in half a night, what kind of people could do this, not to mention that most of them were still on foot, this kind of strange thing was simply unheard of. This time he didn't dare to chase too close, and followed far behind, so the other party did not find his whereabouts.

He followed the group through the valley, over several mountains, and at last to a very desolate place. This place is a volcanic complex, the ground is full of gray volcanic rock, and there is hardly any life to be seen for hundreds of miles. The strange team finally came to a hidden valley, and he flew over the valley with the Thor Bird to take a look, and was immediately stunned.

In that valley, tents and huts of various colors were erected, countless fires were emitting black smoke, and the whole valley was densely packed with human heads, and there were no less than tens of thousands of people. The men seemed to have been living here for a while, littered with all sorts of mess, and the group he had been tracking seemed to be there to transport goods into the valley.

The team leader did not dare to stay over the valley for a long time, he marked the approximate location of the valley on the map, and then rode back on the Thor Bird. Halfway through the flight, the Thor Bird was already too tired to do it, and he himself was at the limit, so he had to find a place to rest.

After sleeping all night in the wilderness, he hit the road again. At this time, he secretly thought to himself, at this time, if he returned to the original place, I am afraid that the large army will be long gone, and everyone will definitely look for themselves, if he goes back the same way, he will probably miss the large army, it is better to rush forward, maybe he can meet somewhere......

So he followed the route that the troops were originally scheduled to investigate, and after a few days of searching, he was finally discovered by others not far from the main army, so he finally returned to the team.

After listening to the team leader's story, Sherman was secretly overjoyed: "I didn't expect that the painstaking investigation had no results, but I inadvertently found the other party's stronghold, which is really God helping me." ”

Sherman patted the squad leader on the shoulder and said, "You did a good job, give you a great credit, go down and have a good rest first!"

Back in the house, Sherman secretly thought about what to do next, the safest way was naturally to send someone to continue to monitor and immediately report to the top of the Holy Sect Army, even if the purpose of this mission was basically achieved. However, Sherman thought about it again, this method is safe, but he always feels that it is too mediocre, the Holy Knights have always been a special treatment, and other troops gossip a lot, if he doesn't show some proud results, he will be sorry for this treatment.

After thinking about it, Sherman made up his mind that he would carry out a sneak attack on these dark devils hiding in the valley, and maybe he could get even greater results. He didn't dare to make such a decision, although there may be tens of thousands of people in the valley, but the knights are flying troops, and the other party must not expect that they will come from the sky, so they must be defenseless.

On the other hand, this time the Knights came out with a powerful weapon, that is, the magic musket, with this weapon, even if the other party has magic, it may not be able to resist it, let alone if the other party is just an ordinary person. Even if the sneak attack is unsuccessful, you can easily escape with the advantage of flying, and it is worth the risk no matter how you look at it.

Having made up his mind, Sherman immediately called a meeting of the officers to discuss, and most of them supported Sherman's idea, if he only found the enemy on this trip, it would be too dull, and other troops could do the same. If you can give these people a hard blow to the Dark Devil Society, the name of the Knights will be truly launched in the future, and it will be good to plug the mouths of those who are jealous.

So the plan for the sneak attack was decided, and after a day's rest, the next day, the Knights, led by the captain, began to fly towards the valley where the Dark Devils were hiding. Two days later, the Knights reached a place near the valley, where they hid in a hidden place and waited until after dark.

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, the Knights split into four teams and attacked from four different directions towards the valley where the Dark Devils were hiding. The sporadic fires in the valley stood out in the darkness of the night, and the knights were overjoyed, this was a live target, and they didn't need to look for a target, just put a gun near the fire.

The time for the attack finally came, and more than 1,000 people of the knights swooped down into the valley on the Thor Bird, and for a moment countless bird cries echoed over the valley, breaking the silence of the night in an instant.

The cry of the thunder god bird was like thunder, rumbling into a piece, and people who didn't know thought that there was a muffled thunder in the sky, but this muffled thunder was so dense that anyone who changed it would be startled. The speed of the Thor Bird is very fast, and before the sleeping person wakes up, it has reached a distance where it can attack.

"Bang!" With the first gunshot, a firelight suddenly illuminated the surroundings, followed by countless "bang, bang, bang......" gunshots, and the valley was like cold water being poured into hot oil, and the pot exploded immediately.
