Chapter 974

The cavalry made a gesture, and the infantry soldiers immediately dispersed. The cavalry touched the assak's unique crossbow gun and pressed a spike into the chamber. This is a typical defensive formation. With a fan-shaped step-by-step array, the concession soldiers can deal with the enemy from any direction in front. The rear cavalry will give long-range support, and when necessary, the infantry soldiers will sacrifice themselves to entangle the enemy and let the most mobile cavalry leave in order to bring out the information.

The twilight forest is still quiet. The twilight gradually converges to the last light, and the night falls on the forest. The forest patrol team did not use any lighting. At this time, the light is easy to be attacked. They could not retreat at this time. Their duties required them to find out the identity of the murderer, so the team continued to push into the forest.

After a rough woodland, the sound of water can be heard faintly. A stream passes through the forest. There are few trees on both sides of the stream, each with an undulating grassland. On the other side of the stream is the village of the Huya clan. This clan is small in number, but every adult Huya is an excellent hunter in the forest. The body found by the team before was a Huya. After seeing a hunter become prey, the team had no hope for the Huya.

After all, the body is less than a kilometer away from the village. At this distance, it is impossible for the huayans to be unaware of the killing of their people. Then there may be only one left, and the Juans are over.

The woods were too quiet, and the huge pressure made the palms of the soldiers sweat. Finally, they came to the edge of the woodland by the stream. The cavalry reached out and made a sign, and the team stopped. Hide in the woods and look at the other end. You can see the outline of the Huya village in the dark. It's dark now. There are no lights in the village. It's terribly quiet.

Suddenly a soldier pointed forward and lay a body by the stream. The body fell to the ground and stretched forward as if struggling to climb forward. It should be a Huya who escaped from the village, but he died nearby. At this time, two dark shadows came to the body. They stretched out their hands and dragged one leg of the body to the village. One of the shadows seemed to notice something and looked up in the direction of the team.

The cavalry have good night vision and use the reddish sky light sprinkled on the grass. He saw clearly that they were two monsters. It has a huge head and human like body, covered with dark nail leaves, and a row of bone spikes extending from the back of the brain to the tail are fishy. Intuition tells the knight that these guys are dangerous.

Other soldiers also saw the monster one after another. Everyone was very nervous. This was a creature that had never appeared in the twilight forest. The quiet villages, the bodies of the Huya people and the strange and dangerous creatures all show that the black earth has ushered in new invaders.

The news must be sent back.

The knight signaled the team to retreat. It can make the whole Huya village die silently. The number and strength of invaders will not be much worse. At least a forest patrol team can't deal with it. The knight's judgment was undoubtedly correct. Unfortunately, he still underestimated the intruder's ability. Just as they were about to retreat, something climbed down from the old tree above them.

At this time, the most sensitive is the knight's wolf. The wolf's nose twitched a few times, suddenly looked up and screamed at the dark canopy above. The knight turned pale and shouted, "be careful, the enemy is on top!"

Broken air sound.

Black shadows rushed down from the tree trunk, and a infantry soldier was knocked down. In his busy schedule, he saw that it was the dark monster that dragged away the bodies of the Huya people on the other side of the stream. With a low roar, the soldier stabbed the monster's waist with a long knife in his hand. As soon as the monster's long tail rolled up, it stuck the war knife. The blade and tail wiped a few sparks, and the monster's tail was also covered with black armor.

When the soldier marched, the monster had bitten his throat.

At the beginning of the battle, the forest patrol team showed a downward trend. Asak's infantry soldiers were not the opponent of this monster at all. Suddenly, the four soldiers fell to the ground and were bitten to death or torn to pieces by the monster. The cavalry reluctantly shot an arrow and drove back the monster from his head. Taking the opportunity to clamp the wolf's belly, the giant wolf took him and ran away.

Behind them, three monsters caught up. They used their hands and feet together and galloped through the woods like wild animals. Their speed was not slower than that of the wolf. What's more terrible is that these monsters are quiet and terrible, just like cold machines, whether they are fighting or chasing.

The cavalry turned over on the wolf and turned to the rear. Shoot with an arrow and launch a single steel spike like an arrow. The assak's special crossbow gun has amazing power. The steel spike found is enough to penetrate the trunk of a century old tree. Almost all the wolf cavalry are good at riding and shooting. Even when the wolves are running, it does not affect the shooting criterion of the cavalry.

The monster in the back dodged several steel edges, but an arrow was shot in the chest and flew up with the huge impact of the steel edge. He flew more than one meter in mid air and couldn't move when he fell. The steel edge is right at its core.

There are still two monsters.

In pursuit, the two monsters suddenly bounced up and held their heads in mid air. The long tail is stretched and rolled to the forehead. After connecting head to tail, it rotates quickly to form a wheel with bone thorns on the periphery. The spiked wheels whirled and their speed soared. They skimmed the ground. When passing a low slope, he bounced up and staggered against the wolf cavalry. The cavalry escaped one, but was hit by the second thorn wheel, and the whole man flew out of the wolf.

There was a blood mist in the air, but the thick back of the cavalry plowed a blood groove for the monster's bone spurs.

The knight immediately bounced when he landed. The wolf suddenly turned back and roared at one of the monsters.

"Go, Sen!" cried the knight.

Each seated wolf was raised by cavalry, which is a way for the assak people to train and raise giant wolves. The giant wolf trained in this way will have deep feelings with the knight. Giant wolves are not as simple as mounts for cavalry. Sometimes they are more like partners or even relatives.

The wolf named Sen disobeyed the knight's order for the first time and rushed straight at a monster. The monster's thorn wheel rotates to meet up, and the giant wolf bounces away. The thorn wheel turned on him a few times, and the giant wolf was ripped open. The knight was very angry, but there was still a monster in front of him.

There was a small sound in the woods. The knight leaned against the trunk of an ancient tree and looked around. I don't know when there were more dark shadows in the forest. They were like a black wave that was going to drown the forest of twilight. The knight took a deep breath and felt a special arrow from behind his waist: "come on, bastards."

Two monsters rushed at the cavalry at the same time. The knight didn't shoot the arrow in his hand, but pushed his own energy into the arrow. The arrow suddenly burst into red light, and the next moment, there was a loud explosion in the forest. The flames of the explosion sprayed tens of meters high into the sky, revealing the forest sea. In the night, you can see it no matter how far away it is.

The sentry tower of the asak village easily saw the fire, and soldiers immediately reported the situation to the patriarch Gog. A moment later, Gog stood on one of the towers. Looking to the extreme, the fire in the forest sea is gradually extinguished. Gog thought and said in a deep voice, "inform all teams to come back."

A Falcon was released and they took Gog's message. The forest patrol team that received the message withdrew from the patrol area and returned to the village in the dark. But when counting the number of people, Gog found that some of the teams did not return, and there were several explosions in the forest. All kinds of visions made Gog feel heavy. The wolf cavalry let him go out to act as a reprimand and patrol the woodlands around the village. Even so, an unease still lingered in the patriarch's heart.

Gog came to the altar in the village. There were flames on both sides of the altar. The yellow light shone on the priest's wrinkled face and outlined many shadows. The priest looked worried. When Gog came behind him, the priest whispered, "something terrible is going to happen, Gog."

"Did you get any hints from your ancestors?"

"To communicate with the souls of ancestors is to deceive those ignorant kids. You're over that age, aren't you?"

Gog sat down and said with a bitter smile, "sometimes I'd rather be the kid who fears the souls of his ancestors."

"Awe doesn't necessarily come from ghosts. It should come from the heart, my patriarch." the priest turned and said, "although I can't communicate with the soul, I don't have the power like you. But the old thing is not good for nothing. At least it's useful here."

Pointing to his head, the priest said, "clan leader, maybe you should consider evacuating the people who have no combat ability. Let me guess, we have lost more than ten forest patrol teams, haven't we? It has shown that the forest is no longer friendly and many places are no longer under our control. I always feel that a big net is surrounding us."

"Before this net wraps us up like birds in a trap, clan leader, you should consider my previous proposal. Before everything is too late."

Gog nodded and said, "I see, priest. Get ready and leave with everyone."

The assak village became lively, and the elderly, women and children began to evacuate the village one after another. Gog let his son Dima lead the team and led 20 wolf knights and 200 infantry soldiers to protect the people from leaving. They will bypass the highly toxic mountains and enter the holy mountain area through the thorny jungle. Gog released two falcons at the same time, and one of them would fly to the Amanda village to inform BA Jindai to pick up his people. The other flew directly to the holy temple to inform the holy temple of the migration of the assak and the situation in the twilight forest.

After all this, Gog picked up his half man high crossbow gun and sat cross legged on the ground facing the village gate. Gog will never leave the village until the people have safely withdrawn. It is the responsibility of a patriarch to protect his people.

Under the moonlight, the black tide is approaching the village like an undercurrent in the sea. Gog could feel that the breath in the air was getting more and more depressed. Finally, a group of wolf cavalry returned to the village. The leader of the team was Abe, who was the first to challenge zero that day. Abe turned down from under the wolf and came forward and said, "patriarch, here we are."

"How many people?"

"A lot, and those things are monsters," Abe corrected.

Gog stood up and said in a loud voice, "whether it's a blood horse or a monster, we asak have never flinched. Soldiers, pick up your swords. We must block these damn things here so that our people can leave safely."

All the assaks raised crossbows, guns or swords and roared loudly.

"Ready to fight." Gog strode towards a sentry tower with a crossbow gun in his hand.

All the sentry towers built in the high walls of the village have been crowded with soldiers, most of whom are sharp machetes. Only elite wolf riders can use powerful crossbow guns. All the steel edges used for crossbow guns were moved out of the warehouse and placed in bags of ten at the foot of each wolf. More infantry soldiers gathered behind the gate. They lifted the huge stake they held together and tilted it on the gate to resist the impact of the enemy.

Gog calmly pressed a steel edge into the chamber of the crossbow gun. He looked at the grass outside the village. Torches erected on all sides lit the grassland outside the village red. In the red light, it was faintly visible that surging shadows began to appear in the woods on the other side of the grassland.

The crossbow gun was aimed at the direction of the forest, and Gog's voice echoed in each assak's ear: "don't rush to attack, assak warriors. You should ensure that every shot can hit the enemy. After all, we are not richer than the Amanda, and our ammunition is limited. But we don't lack courage, so let these bastards know that they pick the wrong opponent!"

The patriarch's words calmed the soldiers who were still nervous. Gog aroused their courage. Everyone felt that there was a fire burning in their body. The flame will illuminate the darkness, and the assak soldiers are fearless!

The enemy is coming!

A guard rushed out of the woods first. While his body was still flying in the air, a steel edge appeared out of thin air. Suddenly, he flashed in front of his eyes and nailed it into his head. The guard flew back into the woods, and then there was a sharp sound in the air.

Gao Ge shook the crossbow gun in his hand and said loudly, "look, they are not so terrible."

The patriarch's power with one arrow inspired the asak people. Next, one guard after another saved the forest, which was 300 meters away from the village. The three hundred meters became the territory of the God of death. The wolf Knights of assak shot steel edge lightning, and each edge spike must hit a guard. The destruction power of the steel edge is enough to penetrate the steel plate within 300 meters and blast through the guard's weak armor leaf.

The guards were almost shot out of the woods, and the farthest of them was only about 100 meters. However, with the increase of the number of guards, the death peak line formed by the powerful crossbow of the assak people is moving towards the village. The endless black wave gushing out of the forest is frightening.

Even Gog looked nervous, and the number of invaders exceeded his estimate.

Another arrow strung the two guards together and nailed them to death. Gog scolded: "Damn, where did such ghosts come from?"

The body of the guard is gradually approaching the high wall of the village. If they rely on the wolf Knight alone, they can approach the high wall in only five minutes. More importantly, during this time, the assak's steel edge will be shot empty. Fortunately, after the last Albert incident, the assaks have made full preparations to prevent the same attack.

At Gog's command, the infantry soldiers pushed some barrels over. Each barrel is half a person high and contains explosives made by the assak. A fuse was left outside the explosive barrel. After the soldier lit the fuse, he pushed the explosive barrel out of the open side door of the village. The barrel rolled towards the guard. After about 100 meters, the fuse burned out and the explosive exploded.

Several fireballs rose outside the village, and the violent shock wave shook most of the guards away. The power of the explosion covered a space with a radius of 20 meters. Although it is a homemade explosive, it is not weak at all. The guards at the core of the explosion were directly blown to pieces, and those at the edge of the explosion were also killed and injured by the blast wave. After five or six explosive barrels exploded, the guard's forward fell down. Occasionally, a lucky guy passed through the explosion point and greeted the crossbow gun of the wolf.

"Isn't it delicious, bastards!" Gog roared and shouted at the wolf riders: "boys, greet them with burst arrows!"

Burst arrow is a special arrow filled with gunpowder, and a fuse is left at the end of the arrow. When ignited, the fuse will burn through the hollow pipe of the arrow into the arrow. The first one ignites the gunpowder filled in the arrow, and a violent explosion will be found at that time. At the same time, the explosion will cause a round of fragment sputtering of the arrow, causing more damage.

Under the dual offensive of exploding arrows and explosive barrels, explosions continued outside the village, and the guards dropped bodies. The latter changed the attack mode. They were connected head to tail, such as spinning wheels. Advance faster to avoid assak attacks. Seeing the flywheels passing through the fire and hitting the stronghold gate and high wall, Gog knew that he could not kill the monster as easily as before.

The clan growled and jumped off the sentry tower with a crossbow gun. Gog landed on his feet, brought up a circle of shock waves, and shook several guards up. With four hands, he nailed two of the monsters together at a very close distance with a crossbow gun, pulled out the steel edge as a short gun, plunged into a guard in the air, threw it to the ground and nailed it to the ground.

Gog growled, "boys, it's time to work hard."

The side door of the village opened, and the infantry soldiers poured out from both sides to meet the guards who kept rushing out of the fire curtain. As soon as they touched, they collided with bloody waves!

From the sky, there is not only one fire in the twilight forest. In addition to the assak village, there are sporadic fires in other parts of the forest. The guards from the coastline are divided into several back forwards and invade the black earth at the same time, but the assak have more guards.
