Far East Territory, Outer Forest
In the night, Qiye, who was lucky enough to escape the giant wolf's attack, was so nervous that his heart was shaking wildly and his hair was standing on end: a sudden change, between life and death. Only those who have truly experienced it can deeply understand the fear involved, and Qiye has never experienced such a moment of life-threatening danger. Think about it, if I had just slowed down for a moment, I might have died in the mouth of the giant wolf...
Seeing the fangs as sharp as knives and sharp as nails in the mouth of the giant wolf, Qiye swallowed hard and did not dare to spit out a breath. Even his back felt thorns on his spine.
After the giant wolf failed to kill him, he adjusted his posture slightly and immediately rushed out. With his amazing jumping ability, he jumped directly over the fire and rushed towards Qiye. At the critical moment, Qiye thought briefly, tapped his toes, and moved back several meters to avoid the giant wolf's second attack. "Roar!" The giant wolf roared unwillingly after failing again, then opened its fangs and opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Qiye. After settling down, Qiye hadn't yet stood firm and didn't dare to slack off at all. He started to move left and right to avoid...
Bite, bite, bite... The giant wolf launched a series of crazy bites, but Qiye narrowly avoided them all in embarrassment, and even after chasing and biting them, they all failed. At this moment, other soldiers in the military camp had rushed out of their tents, holding weapons in hand to prepare against the giant wolf's attack.
"Don't panic! Calm down! A row of spearmen defends, and archers prepare!" With a loud command, Wolf Guard quickly walked out of the crowd and raised his hand to signal the soldiers behind him. After receiving clear instructions, the panicked soldiers began to integrate themselves in a well-trained manner: the swordsmen used shields to build a shield wall to defend against impact, the spearmen used their spears to form barbs, and the archers drew their bows, aimed arrows at the target, and then shot. ..
"Iron Snow Wolf: A first-level monster. In its adult stage, Iron Snow Wolf's strength is equivalent to the 'first level of battle level'. Even in its juvenile stage, it has the strength of 'elementary fourth level'..." Wolfbei recognized the giant wolf at a glance. Origin, although the strength of the Iron Snow Wolf is not high, the most terrifying thing about the Iron Snow Wolf is the tens of thousands of Iron Snow Wolves. Faced with such an attack by the wolf pack, even the 'Tomahawk Peak' strong ones will Avoid the enemy's edge.
In the dark forest, iron snow wolves kept rushing out like a tide, and the number was still growing and was about to get out of control. Wolfbei looked at the situation, glared hard, drew his swords and ordered:
"Frontguard Battalion! Spiritual Army! Prepare to kill the enemy with me, kill!" Before he finished his words and waited for a reply, Wolf Guard's eyes flashed with fire, and he immediately jumped up and rushed into the wolf pack first, with the forward battalion behind him. He and the spiritual cultivators also swarmed towards the oncoming wolves. "Kill!!!" In an instant, the soldiers' killing sounds shook the sky.
In the dark forest, the roars of iron snow wolves, the screams of people, and the crunch of bones were heard one after another... The sounds were shocking and horrifying.
On the other side, Qiye felt a little exhausted after continuously dodging a series of attacks by the Iron Snow Wolf. The companions in the surrounding kitchen camp had already fled, and there was no reinforcement. The giant wolf was biting at him as if unwilling to give up. The posture was like fighting to the end.
"No, we can't go on like this, otherwise we will drag ourselves to death." An anxious thought flashed through Qiye's heart. With a glance, not far away, more than a few thousand soldiers were forming an "iron barrel wall" to defend against the attack of wolves. In the iron barrel wall, a tall man in brocade clothes and mink fur stood calmly, watching the forest with his hands tied. The fighting was going on in the depths of the room, with a look of indifference and indifference. A well-equipped guard followed closely beside him. These two people were Hanqi and Liuhei.
"Damn it!" Qiye gritted his teeth in disgust. His own life was at stake, but the officers and generals stood aside with indifferent expressions and stood aside to watch this fight between man and beast, as if they were enjoying a wonderful performance.
"Since you want to see it, let's do something more exciting!" After quickly making up his mind, Qiye turned around and ran towards the onlookers. Seeing Qiye running away with all his strength, Tie Xuelang followed closely behind. The soldiers not far away suddenly panicked when they saw a small soldier running towards them with a giant wolf chasing after him.
"Don't panic, protect the city lord!" Seeing the giant wolf approaching, Liu Bingwei took a step forward and said calmly. Then he drew out the long curved sword from his waist and attacked the giant wolf that was running towards him...
Qiye took this opportunity to take advantage of the panicked crowd, burrowed into it, and slipped away quietly. If he is caught bringing trouble to the city lord, he will be executed immediately. Naturally, after Qiye escapes from danger, he disappears without a trace. On the one hand, Qiye did this because he was dissatisfied with the indifference of the superiors, and on the other hand, he also thought that it was dark, his eyes were dim, the firelight was dim, his face was difficult to distinguish, and no one would recognize him.
After finding a safe and secluded place in the rear, Qiye lay down on the snow in an instant, panting heavily and out of breath. He looked pale, sweating profusely, and looked exhausted. He placed his palms on his chest, his strong, fast and uneasy heartbeat still retaining the fear of being chased just now.
Holding her chest armor tightly and taking a deep breath, Qiye felt extremely lucky. To be able to survive in such a dangerous situation just now, the "Shadow Step" taught to me by his master is indispensable! Thanks to my hard work every night for the past six months, I was able to perform well in times of crisis.
After carefully recalling the scene just now, Qiye still felt that his efforts were far from enough: if he hadn't rolled on the spot at the critical moment, he would have been killed the first time the giant wolf pounced on him. Thinking about it this time, I was also very embarrassed this time, dodging left and right, but it was just a little better than the first time I encountered the rock beast attacking, when I was scared to the point of being unable to move and had no future.
Hahaha.... A chuckle that lasted for a lifetime appeared on Qiye's face. Now after half a year of practicing secretly absorbing spiritual ores to increase spiritual power in the slave camp, from the beginning, I could only extract dozens of baskets of spiritual energy every day, but later I could quickly and skillfully extract one or two thousand baskets of spiritual energy. In the Seven Nights Spiritual World, The chaotic cyclone has successfully condensed hundreds of drops of spiritual liquid, and its strength has advanced to the "primary second stage". The space of the spiritual world has expanded to 280 square meters, the number of spiritual stars has increased to 300, and the timeline of the Hunyuan Refining Realm has also been extended to 1.2 times.
Compared with these, Qiye is more satisfied with this: after half a year of hard study and practice in Hunyuan Lian, "Shadow Step" has reached the first level: "Lingbu, Xiaocheng" stage.
The so-called "Lingbu" refers to the ability to stay calm in the face of enemy attacks, to be able to swing at the smallest amplitude to achieve a state of fully avoiding 360° three-dimensional attacks, and to reduce the chance of being hit hard.
In the encounter with Tie Xue Lang's surprise attack just now, Qi Ye was impatient and Ling Bu did not perform at his usual free-spirited level. However, he was able to successfully dodge the giant wolf's continuous attacks, and the hardships of the past six months were not in vain. Qiye realized: At present, his strength is too weak and he has no strength to fight with anyone, so the life-saving "Ling Bu" is particularly important.
After calming down, Qiye analyzed carefully: After experiencing the sudden danger just now, the practical application of "Shadow Step" needs to be strengthened. He cannot just practice hard in a relaxed environment, otherwise it will not be used in time at critical moments; secondly, he must deal with dangerous situations by himself. Courage and mind need to be tempered more. If you want to remain calm and calm in crisis, it is not something that can be achieved overnight...
During the seven nights of rest, the sounds of fighting in the darkness of the forest gradually weakened. After waiting for a long period of complete silence, under the nervous gaze of everyone, a dark figure emerged from the dark woods. Although his appearance was not visible, the strong bloody murderous aura on his body was already rushing towards him. There was a brief gap and the figure became clear. It was clear that the man was the Wolf Guard who was the first to rush into the wolf pack. At this moment, he smiled coldly and walked out of the forest calmly with blood dripping from his body. Behind him were a few injured soldiers who supported each other and survived. Those who are intact and sound will not survive even one out of ten. On the other side, Liuhei had already dealt with the giant wolf that Nanye had attracted, and returned to Hanqi to stand by.
"Thank you for your hard work, General Wolf. What are the army casualties in this beast attack?" Han Qi, who was protected by the iron barrel wall, slowly walked out of the crowd and asked.
"To the Lord of the City, our army has annihilated more than 400 wolves this time, and the soldiers suffered about 2,000 casualties," Langbei replied in one word.
"What? I didn't expect that this beast from the Far East Territory would cause such serious losses to our army. Send the order, and the entire army will be sent out for inspection. We must not let up without the permission of the city lord!" Han Qi gave a stern order.
"I just heard that Brother Han was attacked by a beast on his flank. Is Brother Han okay?" At this moment, Duke Shui Liang came quickly from behind the army and asked with concern.
"Thank you, Brother Shui Liang, for your concern. Han is fine. It was just a few wild beasts that came to harass him, and they have been dealt with now." Han Qi looked calm.
"Brother Han, just be fine. The closer we get to the hinterland of the Far East, the more dangerous it becomes. Don't be careless!" Shui Lianggong reminded.
"Thank you Brother Shui Liang for reminding me. Han has asked the soldiers to strengthen patrols and defenses. It's getting late now, so Brother Shui Liang should rest early and continue on his journey tomorrow morning. This barren mountain is full of dangers, so Brother Shui Liang needs to pay more attention. ." Han Qi replied
After a brief farewell, the two returned to camp to rest. After experiencing the attack by the iron snow wolves, the garrisoned army deployed three times more troops for defensive inspections. The fire in the camp burned brighter, making the surrounding area red and bright. Qiye also quietly sneaked back to the kitchen camp, pretending that nothing was wrong and continued patrolling. The blood reflected by the fire and sprinkled on the white snow also gave Qiye a deeper understanding of the dark night in the Far East.
The next day, after a whole night of patrolling without a wink of sleep. At dawn, the nervous patrol finally relaxed. The darkness faded, and the scene in the forest gradually became clear... Countless soldiers were deeply shocked when they saw corpses strewn in the forest with missing limbs. Qiye stood stiffly on the spot. The tragic scene made his little heart feel indescribably shocking.
In the early morning, Han Qi ordered the camp to be packed up and ready to leave, but he ignored the corpse of the soldier left in the forest. Looking at the unburied corpses in the wilderness, Qiye felt a kind of pain in his heart, thinking that among them there might be mining friends who spent time with him in the mine slave camp, and there might be fathers whose children were at home looking forward to returning... Qiye's eyes were soaked. Although he is young, Qiye, as a slave, is no stranger to suffering, but this tragic fate of death without any body parts still makes Qiye feel deeply powerless.
"Hmm~" After a lengthy military order, the army reorganized and set off. After taking another look at his compatriots who were left in the snow in the woods, Qiye continued to set off. Snowflakes are rustling, and soon the tragic scene of fighting in the forest will be completely covered up.
