Early the next morning, the three of them left the underground space early. As for the other seven fishmen, Zhou Lei rejected their request to accompany them.
He has made arrangements for these seven-headed fishmen. In a few days, the three of them will leave the tidal island. At that time, they will naturally be promoted to the sloop, and these seven-headed fishmen are the best sailor candidates.
Although dhows also use wind power to sail, the climate in this great sailing world is ever-changing, and it is impossible without sailors to operate the oars.
Although the trust of fishmen is limited, Zhou Lei will not count them as the core of his subordinates, just as rowing sailors.
Otherwise, would it be difficult for Chengdu to become the captain of a sloop and have to row the boat himself again and again?
Even if he didn't mind, it would be difficult for him, Ren Yang, and Zhao Hu to row this twelve-meter-long sloop.
Therefore, the remaining seven fishmen must not suffer any more losses.
………
All the way through the coyote territory, the three of them did not stop. Ever since the coyote king was eliminated, the number of coyotes here has dropped dramatically, and it often happens that they can't even find one even if they go around for a long time.
The goals of the three of them had already moved. This time, their destination was the jackal territory that Zhao Hu had encountered before.
Even though both of them have the word "wolf" in their names, there is a huge gap in their strength.
According to Zhao Hu, the weakest of the jackal teams he encountered had the strength of second-level spiritual creatures, and there were several third-level jackals among them.
It was precisely because of this that he and Yin Tianxiong did not provoke that team of jackals.
But it's different now. Now their strength has greatly increased. Two four-star trainees are extraordinary and one is five-star. Third-level spiritual creatures are their best hunting targets at the moment.
After walking through the coyote territory for about an hour, the three of them stopped.
"This is it!" Zhao Hu pointed to a hill in front of him.
After hearing this, Zhou Lei quickly issued an order.
He was still working alone, and Ren Yang and Zhao Hu were working in pairs. Then the two sides split up and started searching in two different directions.
Creatures with extremely low intelligence like jackals rarely leave the camp too far when they go hunting. And since Zhao Hu once encountered the opponent here, it is very likely that the camp behind the opponent is nearby.
Not long after, Ren Yang's call came from Zhou Lei's private chat panel. He and Zhao Hu met with a team of jackals.
Upon hearing the news, Zhou Lei naturally turned around quickly and hurried over following the sound of fighting.
This is a hunting team of eight gnolls. They stand on two legs, have the heads of wolves, and hold stone spears in their hands. Between their bared teeth, unknown mucus drips from their mouths, making them look particularly ferocious. .
At this moment, the eight jackals were besieging Ren Yang and Zhao Hu in the middle.
It's just that although there are two third-level jackals among the eight jackals, Ren Yang and Zhao Hu are both four-star apprentices now, and they don't panic in the face of the siege.
Even Ren Yang didn't use the Suifa gun, he only summoned the black-skinned crocodile, took out the harpoon, and engaged in close combat.
Although I had purchased a lot of ammunition from far-traveling merchants before, the quantity was limited after all.
And in this vast sea, he didn't know how long it would take to replenish ammunition. Therefore, he would naturally not waste handgun ammunition in a battle that could be solved by close combat.
On the side, as soon as Zhou Lei approached the battle circle, the attribute board of the third-level jackal popped up in front of his eyes.
[Name: Jackal Hero]
[Race: Gray-backed Jackal]
[Life Level: Spiritual Creatures]
[Level: third-level spiritual creature]
[Feature: Group combat]
[Introduction: A brave man in the jackal camp, a brave and skilled jackal warrior. 】
After reading it, he immediately took action. If it were done before, he wouldn't mind letting his brother and Zhao Hu practice more.
But after last night, he already had a lot of pressure in his heart, and now he just wanted to seize every moment. Naturally, he couldn't care about anything else at this moment, and he wanted to resolve the battle as soon as possible.
There was a five-star extraordinary trainee, two four-star extraordinary trainees, and a thick-skinned black-skinned crocodile. There was almost no suspense in this battle. In just a few minutes, all eight jackals were killed.
In the final drop distribution, Zhou Lei picked up two third-level Jackal drops, while Ren Yang and Zhao Hu picked up three second-level drops respectively.
After doing this, Zhou Lei glanced at the extraordinary points he had accumulated.
232 points!
There is still a long way to go before being promoted to six stars.
………
Soon the three of them set off again. After this battle, the three of them were basically sure that the jackal camp should be nearby, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence.
It didn't take long for the facts to tell them that their guess was correct.
Outside a low valley not far from the hill, the three of them were crawling in a bush. At the mouth of the valley in the distance, several Jackal warriors were patrolling back and forth. Outside the valley, groups of hunting teams were constantly coming in and out. .
Obviously, this valley is where the camp of this group of jackals is located.
The three of them looked at each other and after some quiet discussion, they did not act rashly.
Instead, he carefully walked around the mouth of the valley. Heading towards the mountain forest on one side, prepare to find out the size of this jackal camp first.
Zhou Lei felt a little bad, because judging from the frequency of the hunting teams coming in and out at the entrance of the valley, there seemed to be a lot of Jackal teams out hunting. In just the ten minutes of observation, he saw several teams, which made him He felt something was wrong.
What does a large hunting party mean?
This means that the number of gnolls in the camp is extremely high, because only the more common gnolls in a camp, the more gnoll warriors will be generated under its base number.
Under this guess, the three of them did not dare to take action at will. After all, it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands. If the jackal warriors in the valley were really beyond imagination, it would be very risky to take action rashly.
On the mountainside, Zhou Lei narrowed his eyes slightly and was looking at the valley below.
By the time he looked away again, his eyes had regained their composure, and the bad feeling in his heart had long since dissipated.
There are indeed a lot of gnolls in this gnoll camp. It is estimated that the number of ordinary gnolls should exceed three hundred. Compared with the previous tidal murloc tribe, it can be said that it is much stronger.
But if you say how powerful it is, it's not that powerful. Tribes of three hundred people can also be seen everywhere in this great maritime world, and they are also affiliated with small and unpopular forces.
Zhou Lei pursed his lips, glanced at the two people around him, and finally decided to take action. He thought that this was still within his ability to deal with it.
Moreover, in a camp of three hundred gnolls, there will definitely be no shortage of gnoll warriors belonging to spiritual creatures, probably close to a hundred.
These are all extraordinary points, and they are a great temptation for him who is eager to be promoted.
