Chapter Twenty-Eight: Clearance

The mountains are high and densely forested, the vegetation is flourishing, and as far as the eye can see, all directions, layer upon layer, all of them are verdant.

This was already the ninth day of Duan Heng and the others' eastward march.

At the beginning, the surrounding environment was quite normal, but the further you go, the more difficult it becomes, and not being able to find the way is only one thing, due to the crossing of the flood peak, the water demon is wanton, and the grass and trees on the land are growing like crazy, although it is far less than the effect of the dragon rain, but it is also extremely terrifying.

So much so that Duan Heng had to slow down, open the road while traveling, and it was already amazing that they could walk more than a thousand miles every day.

But what's worse is that the mud accumulated on the ground, under the scorching sun and high temperature, emits layers of poisonous fog and miasma, and the more low-lying areas or densely forested places, the more poisonous miasma accumulates.

Affected by these poisonous fogs and miasma, countless poisonous mosquitoes, poisonous insects, and poisonous leeches are also overwhelming, and they will be hit if they are not careful.

"Uncle, I hate this place to death, Lao Duan, don't tell me that the remaining 500,000 miles ahead are all this virtue, if so, you still kill me!"

Zhou Peng's hysterical voice came from the front, and at the same time, accompanied by the clattering sound of felling, a path that only allowed one person to walk was constantly being opened by him and Wu Shaoxiang.

And in the middle of the path, Zhu Yu, Lin Yulou, and Liu Bai were holding heavy crossbows, vigilantly staring at the surrounding situation, and their faces, bodies, and hands were full of red poisonous leeches, and as for the ground, countless black poisonous beetles the size of their fingers and stomachs were drilling around, this was really a vibrant world.

And behind the three of them, Bai Luoyu also looked highly vigilant, she was in charge of the attack of the evil qi spell.

The past few days have been a painful experience. So that they do not dare to be careless.

As for Duan Heng, he walked at the back, his whole body was full of cold, and every step he took could leave a piece of frost on the ground. And every few moments, he would raise his hand and release an ice spell, freezing all the poisonous mosquitoes gathered in the sky.

These poisonous mosquitoes are the most hateful, although there are not many of them due to the daytime, but the body the size of a bird's egg, the extremely fast flight speed, plus the sharp poisonous needles that can easily pierce the leather armor, once formed dozens of them. The scale of hundreds of them is definitely a nightmare.

Therefore, even though he knew that the consumption of evil qi was very serious, Duan Heng had to keep it in a state of release all the time.

Fortunately, there was far more ice and evil qi in his body than everyone thought, so there was no problem in maintaining normal walking.

And even though Duan Heng was under the greatest pressure, the rest of the team was still complaining.

Especially Zhou Peng and Bai Luoyu, the two of them have the highest cultivation in the team. It's simply unbearable, relatively comparative. But it was Zhu Yu and Lin Yulou who could bear it better.

The reason is also very simple, Zhou Peng and Bai Luoyu were both disciples of the Sniper Demon Sanctuary, and their training and familiar environment on weekdays have always been against demon corpses.

It can be said that the two of them killed the demon corpse, and they were definitely chopping melons and vegetables, which was extremely convenient. I have a specialization in the art industry.

However, the four of Zhu Yu were hunters, and for decades, they had been hunting demon beasts in the barren jungle south of Mochizuki Lake, where the environment was almost the same as here. So it's quite habitual, and in the past few days, even better than Duan Heng.

Many times their advice is very pertinent and effective.

At this time, hearing Zhou Peng complaining in front, Liu Bai smiled strangely:

"Hey, Boss Zhou, you're probably going to be disappointed, what is it here, it's just a trivial matter, the real barren jungle is much more terrifying than here, you know, this is the means by which the demon clan rules the land, they will do everything they can to restore the land to its most primitive state, but the human race is different, the means by which the human race rules the land is to open up wasteland, open roads, reclaim, open mansions, and open states. ”

"The behavior of both is very extreme, the demon clan has to cover every inch of land with the characteristics of recklessness, the giant trees are towering, the grass is reckless, the dragon and snake are everywhere, the miasma is pervasive, and the killing machine is the most they like, because this is the best hunting ground. The Terrans like to be open, flat, and beautiful, everything has rules, everything must be orderly, and no weeds are allowed, so sometimes it is better to invite the dragons to rain at a high price, but also to control everything and not to be overcome. ”

"But then again, there are advantages and disadvantages to both methods, and the Terran method can allow the Terran to multiply quickly, without worrying about it, and prevent it from being bitten to death by a poisonous mosquito. However, the reckless jungle world controlled by the demon clan is like a treasure trove, like those places that have not been broken into and developed by the human race for thousands of years, and the number of various spirit grass and spirit fruits is not too much, plus countless demon beasts, tsk, so it gave birth to a huge hunter profession, although that kind of life is dangerous and hard, but it is indeed worth nostalgic, well, take a breath of miasma, happy like a fairy. ”

"Fairy your sister!"

Listening to everyone's boring bickering, Duan Heng was also in a slightly better mood, but at this moment, his heart suddenly moved, and he immediately whispered:

"Everyone, silence. ”

His voice was not high, but everyone was at the same time, ready to fight as soon as possible, because in the past nine days, Duan Heng had already used countless facts to prove that his sensing ability was so strong that within a diameter of ten miles, any wind and grass, don't think about hiding from his spiritual sense, those demon beasts that tried to sneak attack, or scattered demons, or some poisons, were all tragic without exception.

"Duan Heng, is it tricky?"

Bai Luoyu turned around and asked in a low voice, this was the first time in several days that Duan Heng had shown such a vigilant expression.

"There are thirty-three people more than ten miles ahead, no, thirty-two people, these people are not bad, but they are running wildly in chaos, there seems to be a strong pursuer behind, quickly, seize the hill three hundred meters away in front, control the commanding heights, Zhu Yu, immediately prepare the ice shield array, Lao Zhou, sister-in-law, the two of you are ready to use the sword magic technique, and the others are waiting for the crossbow!"

While speaking, Duan Heng had already rushed out, and the others had also sped up, they had already cooperated with each other tacitly in the past few days.

In the blink of an eye, Duan Heng took the lead in rushing up the hill. With a wave of his hand, a large area of cold ice instantly enveloped most of the hills, and the trees and weeds on the original hills were immediately frozen, and countless poisonous insects and mosquitoes died. Run, run!

This is what Zhu Yu explained, and there is the first element that must be done in the battle of the wild jungle, clearing the field.

One of the reasons why those demon clans and demon beasts like this barren jungle environment is that this environment is too suitable for sneak attacks.

If a hunter regiment can't quickly clear the field and establish a defensive position when it launches a battle, it is absolutely unqualified, and it won't take long for the group to be wiped out.

Besides. Like Duan Heng's first-hand clearance, also known as field control, is usually in charge of the immortal cultivators in the hunter group who are good at ice spells or red spells, both have their own advantages and disadvantages, the red spell can achieve area damage, and the ice spell can delay the enemy's speed within this range.

In short, the principle is to occupy the home field.

At this time, Zhu Yu caught up with the second and clapped his hands. I could hear the rumbling sound, on the basis of Duan Hengqing. A huge ice shield was erected, and these ice shields were all condensed from the eight-rank cold ice, but they were all condensed and compressed in advance, because even the current Duan Heng could not condense and compress such a number of eight-rank cold ice in an instant.

Between several breaths. The entire sixteen sides of the ice giant shield with a height of two meters, a width of two meters, and a thickness of half a meter shrouded the hill in clear layers, forming a well-defended ice shield array.

After that, Zhu Yu jumped directly onto a giant shield. As soon as he raised his hand, he put on a layer of heavy ice armor for himself, and his current position in the team was not only responsible for arranging the ice shield array, but also responsible for three-dimensional defense and vigilance.

At the same time, Lin Yulou, Liu Bai, and Wu Shaoxiang entered the shield array, two of them held heavy crossbows to guard the left and right wings, and the last one quickly took out a large number of parts from the Qiankun bag and began to assemble the powerful sniper heavy crossbow.

As for Zhou Peng and Bai Luoyu, they entered the shield formation at the end.

Because theoretically speaking, the two of them have the highest combat power in the team, and they practice the sword magic technique, which is faster, more accurate, and sharper than the ordinary evil qi technique.

If Duan Heng didn't use the Five-Rank Green Spirit Flame and the Ancient Sword Demon, he wouldn't be able to, because now that he was in a quick battle, the cold ice he could release was at most a Ninth Rank +, and the lethality was not enough.

Therefore, Zhou Peng and Bai Luoyu are equivalent to the strongest output units in their small team.

And Duan Heng can only be qualified for one scout and the duty of controlling the field.

Of course, given his powerful spiritual sense, the role he plays as a scout is also very crucial.

For example, now, in less than twenty breaths, they have already built a powerful defensive position in advance.

But the group in the distance had just galloped six or seven miles away.

"There are weird, Brother Duan, there should be many experienced hunters among these people, but they are so embarrassed that they can't find traces of the enemy on the surface, so I suspect that it was the demon beast that defeated them, and it was at least an eight-rank demon beast, and there was more than one. At this time, in the Ice Shield Array, Zhu Yu, who had already put on several layers of ice armor on himself, which was simply a humanoid ice tower, said in a deep voice, his vision range is the widest, and in front of this hill, there is a large flat swamp, so he has this judgment, after all, he has also been a hunter for hundreds of years, and he has a wealth of experience, so he does not think about it among everyone.

"Eight-rank demon beast, Lao Zhu, are you sure, that is equivalent to the immortal cultivation master between the prefect and the prefect!" Zhou Peng exclaimed.

This so-called grade is the division of strength formulated by the human race for the demon race and the demon race, just like the conversion of kilograms, kilograms, pounds, and ounces on the earth, this is the benefit of the human race holding the power of the center, and there is a vague contempt, so no one has ever used the cultivation realm of the human race to set the strength of the demon race.

The correct unit conversion formula is that the demon beasts below the jinshi are all not in the stream, and they don't even have the right to subdivide, and the cultivation from the county seat to the county seat is equivalent to the ninth grade, the cultivation from the county seat to the prefect position is equivalent to the eighth grade, and the cultivation from the prefect to the governor's position is equivalent to the seventh grade, and so on, whether it is the demon clan or the demon clan, it is this standard.

Only the human race is qualified to distinguish what children, show talents, lift people, jinshi and so on.
