Chapter 0010 The First Battle in the Jungle
The mage's robe was not suitable for traveling through the jungle, so Li Xun changed into linen casual clothes early, put on deer leather boots, put on a cloak, and carried mosquito-repellent herbs in his arms. Following the butler's instructions, he went to the valley where he fought last time.
Since the thieves chose to ambush there, it means they are not too far from their nest.
Li Xun had already turned on his soul vision and glanced around vigilantly. When the tall trees completely blocked the possible vision, Li Xun summoned five skeleton warriors and ordered them to disperse their battle formations, 1 out of the first 3 out of the first 1 behind 1, and slowly advanced deep into the forest.
Due to the raging thieves, no hunters dared to come from the Whispering Forest, which made Li Xun convenient.
The forest is deep and you can easily get lost when you walk through it. Li Xun directed the team to walk to a small hill that you had already recognized. When you get there, you can recognize the next sign.
In the soul vision, I saw the faint red dots of small animals from time to time. After discovering Li Xun's team, I quickly ran away. Li Xun did not chase him and advanced straight to the small hillside.
When the small hill entered the field of view, Li Xun stopped moving forward and glanced at the top of the hill. There were 5 red dots that were different from the front, 4 red dots gathered behind the rocks at the rear, and 1 red dot alone in the shadow of the trees on the top of the slope.
The guard post? Only 3 miles from the edge of the Whispering Forest, can the thieves start to set up guard posts? The thieves are very vigilant!
Relying on soul vision, Li Xun did not cast the mage armor and decided to run naked to the battlefield. After all, the magical aura of the mage armor was too dazzling in the dark forest. Although it was safe, it became the biggest monster-attracting weapon. However, if there was no mage armor, if there was a thief or a tourer gave him an arrow, it would be a lot of fun. He would become the reverse teaching material for mages to cast spells, and the stupidest mage who dared to run naked to the battlefield. However, now with soul vision, it is very different. He has never seen a thief or a tourer who can block his soul light.
A group of thieves hiding in the forest to rob houses will attract at most some wandering thieves and forest rangers. It is impossible for senior professionals to be willing to do such a long-lasting business. As long as low-level thieves and forest rangers cannot get close to each other, they will not have many means to attack themselves.
After his thoughts were settled, Li Xun used the cover of Lin Mu to guide the skeleton warriors to move forward slowly along the blind spot of the red dot's sight.
The place where the red dot is located is a bush, and a person can be seen lying on the grass felt underground, wearing a camouflage cloak, and occasionally looking up at the forest under the hillside. The bush is about 30 meters away from the four red dots behind, and there is a huge rock in the middle. Li Xun estimated that there should be a den behind the rock, and the people inside are most likely sleeping. After all, it's just dawn, and the person who works for the night shift will definitely not be able to sleep. The one responsible for the lookout is the shift that has just taken over. If you kill the lookout quickly, the other four can easily be blocked in the den.
After estimating the distance, he was about 15 meters away from the lookout. Li Xun leaked half of his face from behind the big tree and silently prepared spells. With his soul moving, a sudden skeleton warrior no longer covered his body and walked directly past the hillside, making a "cracking" sound unique to the friction of bones.
The lookout in the bushes was shocked, lowered his head and listened to the movement, and then slowly looked up to the slope. Before he could see the situation, a sharp whistle sounded from the side, and the magic arrow was hitting his head, and his brain was pierced and the corpse twitched a few times before there was no movement.
Li Xun waved his hand and the three skeleton warriors rushed into the bushes, while he stared at the four red dots behind the rock. Fortunately, the four red dots did not respond. Li Xun directed the skeleton warriors to cover the bloody body of the lookout with soil, and then he touched the rock behind the rock.
He leaned behind the rock and looked at it. Sure enough, in the shadow of the leeing behind the rock, there was a small thatched hut with four red dots inside the house. Li Xun did not delay, and the four skeleton warriors rushed straight to the wooden door of the thatched hut. As soon as he arrived at the door, a harsh scream sounded from the feet of the skeleton warriors.
Li Xun's eyes were filled with a "magic alarm". It seemed that there was at least a tourer inside. Before he could react, three skeleton warriors broke open the wooden door and rushed in, while the remaining one was guarding the door. Li Xun did not show his body and was still hiding behind the rock to command remotely.
There was a muffled sound, mixed with shouts, and accompanied by the bitter hesitation of the knife cutting into the flesh, the thatched hut trembled violently. Two red dots quickly went out, and one red dot was still wandering around the house, but it was already a little dim. Only the brightest red dot hit the door and fought with the skeleton warriors guarding outside.
Li Xun looked at him secretly and saw that he was a tall and thin man in disheveled clothes. He held a bow without arrows in one hand and a short dagger in the other hand and could barely hold it. The blood on his arms holding the bow was hidden and it was obviously impossible to lift it up. It should be the cruiser who placed the "magic alarm".
The tall and thin man dodged the attack of the skeleton warrior, and then he saw clearly the object of attacking him. Oh my God, it was actually an undead creature! What's going on? Why did the undead creature appear in the whispering forest? Before he could figure it out, a tragic neigh came from the thatched hut, and another one died. The tall and thin man immediately became anxious. As soon as he woke up from his sleep, he was cut off his shoulder. Before he could figure out the situation, his three companions all died tragically. The one who was on guard was probably reimbursed, and he had to escape immediately.
Before he could see the location clearly, a black light penetrated into his body. He immediately knelt on the mud with his legs and feet. The bone knife of the skeleton warrior across the opposite side was cut down with the sound of wind.
The tall and thin man screamed and collapsed on the ground. The skeleton warrior's bone knife stopped in front of his forehead and did not fall. Then two more skeletons came up and held his hands.
Just when he was panicked, a cloak man and a skeleton turned out from behind the rock. The cloak man with a hood and wrapped his whole body in a gray cloth cloak without missing a single trace. He walked to the tall and thin man, murmured a few words, and pointed his fingers on his forehead. The tall and thin man shook for a moment, his eyes blurred, gradually losing focus, and becoming dull.
Li Xun ordered, and several skeletons acted together, dragged all four bodies on the mud behind the thatched hut and dug up the soil and buried them. He found a dry stone and sat down and began to ask about the tall and thin man.
After being cursed by the weak curse and charming humans, the tall and thin man honestly answered all Li Xun's questions. Li Xun snapped his fingers, and two skeletons dragged the tall and thin man to the edge of the digging pit behind the house. After a short hiss, only the sound of the earth and rocks rolling down were left. Li Xun sat on the stone and held his chin and thought about the information just now.
The old nest of the Blood Axe Thieves is less than 10 miles from the ambush valley, which means 17 miles from the edge of the Whispering Forest. The advantage is that Li Xun doesn’t have to run too far, and the disadvantage is that he is too close to the edge of the forest. In the future, it will be easy to be discovered by the outside world. Forget it, before destroying the Blood Axe, he still doesn’t have to have a headache for not eating the meat in his mouth.
After looking at his experience value, 5 humans gave him 60 experience value: 4 ordinary people 40 points, and 1-level ranger 20 points. It seems that professionals are far higher in soul strength than ordinary people.
Astali? Blood Axe was obviously not a smart person. If he were a smart person, he would not fight the local lords for hatred. But he was very cautious. Since he kidnapped Sir Hanwick's young son, he had sent off guard posts in several dangerous places in the woodlands, and today he was attacked by himself.
Each post has five people, and it rotates every three days. Since this hillside is facing a forest path that hunters often walk, a level 1 ranger was specially sent. Since I had just fought with the Duchy Army, nearly 200 people were killed or injured. Although more than 100 people were half captured and half recruited, the team was still very untidy, with only about 730 people.
In addition to the level 9 berserker Astali Blood Axe, high-end powers also have two level 7 berserkers and a level 6 thief. Even the level 1 ranger who just died at the hands of Li Xun is considered a talent and is highly valued by Astali Blood Axe.
The Blood Axe's nest is stationed on a low-high mountain. The roads around it are steep and difficult to walk. There is only a mountain road on the front. It is a good place to defend and attack. The top of the mountain is very flat and open. It was run by the Blood Axe Thieves Group for several years. It has been built into a camp with wood to surround the entire mountain. The farmers are caught inside and plant some food and fruits. The materials they snatched from outside are also very enjoyable. Sir Hanwick's young son is imprisoned somewhere behind the top of the mountain. Not Astaly? The Blood Axe doesn't want to kill him, but plans to find an opportunity to attack Sir Hanwick's castle to earn the gate.
