Path of Light.

Chapter 224
In the early morning, the morning fog in the forest has not cleared.

The weeds are covered with dew, a beam of light shines on the leaves of the weeds from the morning mist, and the crystal dewdrops emit a faint luster like crystals.

The elves passed by in the wild grass, and the dew would wet everyone's trouser legs, and the wet trousers stuck to their calves, making people feel cold and uncomfortable.

Instructor Eleanor hid in the weeds. Her body was lying in the weeds, and even her hair was wet with dew. She didn't dare to move, and blended with the surrounding weeds.

In front of her eyes, several adult dire wolves, which were larger than rhinoceroses, followed the caravan's footsteps silently.

Instructor Eleanor carefully counted them and found that there were seven dire wolves in this group.

The seven dire wolves are deadly enough for the caravan in front of them, but this is not all of the dire wolves trailing behind the caravan.

This is already the third group of dire wolves that passed by Instructor Eleanor, and of course it is also the largest group. There is even a wolf king among them, and it even looked suspiciously in the direction where Instructor Eleanor was hiding just now glance.

Instructor Eleanor's concealment skill allows her to blend in with the bushes, but the wolf king's instinct for danger makes it look in the direction where Instructor Eleanor is hiding...

Fortunately, instructor Eleanor was calm enough and hid in the grass without moving at all...

Once discovered by this group of dire wolves, it is estimated that she will not be able to safely withdraw from the adventure group.

After all these dire wolves had passed by, Eleanor counted them, and there were a total of sixteen dire wolves. She couldn't help but wiped the dew off her face, and quickly detoured to catch up with the caravan, passing the news to the caravan. Tell Instructor Nora.

Instructor Nora was taken aback. She had guessed that there might be a few dire wolves following the caravan, and she was also wondering whether to set up some traps along the way, and then set up an ambush somewhere to hunt and kill these dire wolves one by one.

If the adventure group fights the dire wolves head-on, they can probably stop two dire wolves.

If three dire wolves charge up at the same time, the pressure on Instructor Nora, Instructor Virgil, and Instructor Eleanor will be extremely great.

Once it can't be stopped, it will become extremely troublesome for the dire wolf to rush towards Instructor Gru, Miss Christine and Magician Scarlet behind the team.

But now there were no more dire wolves behind them. If sixteen dire wolves rushed up at the same time, they might tear their adventure group to pieces in an instant.

Of course, these dire wolves are not only staring at the adventure group, the biggest fat in their eyes is the caravan and the accompanying half-blood elves.

Instructor Nora quickly told the incident to Commander Xin Deji.

Commander Xin Deji also looked horrified, how could so many dire wolves come running all at once?The caravan passed through this monster forest a few times before, and was attacked by dire wolves, but none of those dire wolves had formed a large scale. The first few times I passed through this jungle without any risk.

But now, sixteen dire wolves appeared behind the team, which was really a big trouble.

Maybe this group of dire wolves will eat them elves until there is no bones left in their faces. Thinking of this, Commander Xin Deji wiped the sweat from his forehead, then looked nervously at Instructor Nora, and said to Instructor Nora asked:
"Instructor Nora, what can you do here?"

Instructor Nora also looked embarrassed.

Because just now, the adventure group had a disagreement for the first time.

……

Instructor Nora wanted to come over to discuss with Commander Hindji how to deal with the dire wolves, but Instructor Vergil disagreed. He wanted to leave the caravan quietly before everyone knew the news.

"If we go by ourselves, there won't be so many troubles." Instructor Virgil whispered to everyone.

Instructor Nora frowned, and said with a serious face: "If even we give up, who else is willing to save them?"

The instructors fell silent collectively, and even Magician Scarlett, who had been standing by Instructor Nora's side, did not immediately express her support at this time.

On the contrary, Instructor Gru, who has always been taciturn, stood up and said:

"Nora is right, if even we feel that we can give up these compatriots, then how will Roy, Sabrina, and Christine face the same problem in the future, how will they choose?

We are elves and we will not give up any of our companions easily.They are also our companions. "

Instructor Gelu pointed to the large troops walking in front, and said solemnly.

At this time, Roy also summoned up his courage and said, "I want to stay and deal with those dire wolves together!"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

Sabrina and Miss Christine spoke almost simultaneously.

"The minority obeys the majority, so I also choose to stay. Virgil, you have no choice. Come and find a way to deal with the group of dire wolves behind. As long as they don't charge up at the same time, we still have some chances." Instructor Eleanor patted Instructor Virgil on the shoulder and said to him.

……

It was under such circumstances that Instructor Nora came to find Commander Xin Deji.
Apparently, Commander Xin Deji hoped that Instructor Nora could come up with a solution to the problem.

"I will take the adventure group to try to defeat them one by one, I hope these dire wolves will not rush up at the same time..." Instructor Nora said to Commander Sin Deji: "The caravan should also be ready for battle, and I want to learn from these dire wolves." Among the half-blood elves, choose some capable elf hunters to fight these dire wolves with us."

"I'm going to find someone right away. In the past few days, I've also found out that there are indeed many experienced hunters among these half-blood elves."

Commander Xin Deji said immediately.

……

Afterwards, he hurried to the large army, and kept communicating with the elf hunters in the half-blood elf team.

It has to be said that this kind of thing has to be done by a dedicated person, which is more effective.

Under the lobbying of Head Xin Deji, nearly 30 mixed-blood elf hunters expressed their willingness to deal with this group of dire wolves together, and they are all experienced hunters. They usually hunt wind foxes and poisonous spiders in the jungle. Such as low-level monsters, usually when they see dire wolves, they almost always go around.

Now I can only bite the bullet and stand up.

The weapons used by these half-breed elf hunters are almost all forest bows made of hardwood, and the arrows they are equipped with are some feathered arrows with fine steel arrow clusters. However, this kind of hard bow can't shoot dire wolves unless they hit their eyes. Wear their tough hides, especially their manes that are as hard as steel needles. "Who is good at laying traps? We can lay some traps along the way." Instructor Nora asked the assembled half-blood elf hunters.

One of the half-blood elf hunters stood up and said:
"We will all make some simple traps, but it takes a little time to set them up, and these traps may not be very effective against dire wolves. They have burst tempers, but they are not brainless..."

"As long as we can trap them in the trap, even if it's just for a short time, then we have a chance to kill them." Instructor Nora said confidently.

"Okay, then let's go ahead and set up a few traps, wait for the large army to pass, and use these traps to deal with these dire wolves." The half-blood elf hunter said to Instructor Nora.

After speaking, he quickly ran to the front of the team with a dozen of his companions.

Instructor Nora then looked at Instructor Eleanor again.

"Okay, stop talking, I know what you want me to do, this is my job." Instructor Eleanor agreed without letting Instructor Nora speak.

"Roy, Sabrina, you two still need to protect Gru, Christine, and Scarlett in the next battle, and so on, it's best for you to act together, don't be too scattered, etc. Now let’s start fighting, Virgil, Eleanor and I probably won’t be able to take care of you..."

Instructor Nora exhorted Instructor Gru.

After saying this, Instructor Nora walked into the half-blood elf hunters again, asked them what they were good at, and then assigned tasks to everyone.

……

The half-blood elf hunters stood up one by one and began to introduce themselves.

The hunting methods of these half-breed elf hunters are relatively primitive. Generally speaking, they use traps and bows and arrows, and they will rush up to make up the knife when the monster is dying.

The group of hunters who just left were better at making traps, and the remaining elf hunters were better at archery.

There are only seven half-breed elf hunters equipped with waist knives, but they are all rangers in the jungle, and they are not enough to confront these dire wolves head-on.

One thing that pleased Instructor Nora was that these half-breed elf hunters were good at archery and had a lot of experience in jungle hunting.

At this time, both Instructor Gru and Miss Christine took out the spare combat shortbows they carried with them and lent them to two half-blood elf hunters with the best archery skills. The hardwood forest bows that elf hunters usually use are much stronger.

Instructor Nora asked these half-breed elf hunters, why didn't they buy a better hunting bow?
The answers from the half-blood elf hunters immediately made Instructor Nora's chest a little tight. She never expected that in the southern part of the Partington plane, the hunting bows and war bows used by the elves are actually controlled. Even if the hunters want to buy None can be bought.

Only a few half-breed elves who served in the army brought back the longbow used in the army...

……

The atmosphere in the caravan was a bit dignified, obviously because everyone knew that a group of dire wolves were following behind.

The half-blood elves circled the forest road full of marks.

On the tree, a group of elf hunters are setting traps in the woodland. These traps are not traps. The traps of the elf hunters are not enough to restrain these dire wolves. They all set up some nets on the trees, although these nets cannot hold back The bite of the dire wolves can still cause a lot of trouble for these dire wolves.

After the large army passed through the trap area, Instructor Eleanor ran towards the dire wolves behind.

She needs to bring one of the wolves into the trap area ahead of time...

She didn't stare at the smallest pack of wolves, nor did she provoke the wolf pack with the wolf king, but aimed at the pack of six adult dire wolves. Obviously, they should only look like a cooperative relationship, and there was no wolf pack in the pack. The presence of the leader and the she-wolf.

Instructor Eleanor ran towards the group of dire wolves until the arrows were within range, before squatting on a tree and shooting an arrow at the dire wolf walking in front.

Instructor Eleanor's archery is also very good.

Rangers are like this, they are good at melee combat, archery, tracking and scouting...

The arrow was wrapped in wind elements, and it flew towards the dire wolf walking in the front without a sound, and instructor Eleanor chose to hide the arrow's trajectory among the dense branches and leaves.

The arrow pierced through countless dense branches and leaves, and after shooting through a leaf, it suddenly appeared in front of the dire wolf. The dire wolf didn't even have time to dodge, but instinctively shook its head, and looked at it on its back. In the first instant, the arrow pierced its jaw and entered its mouth.

It was considered to be the most vulnerable part of the fur, and it shot right through the mouth of the dire wolf.

The dire wolf at the front let out a miserable whimper, and the companions beside him immediately rushed towards Instructor Eleanor on the branch.

Instructor Eleanor grabbed a vine that had been prepared a long time ago, jumped forward, and ran forward.

As expected, the six dire wolves were furious in an instant, and the manes on their necks and backs exploded. The dire wolves, which were a little bigger than a rhinoceros, started running in the jungle, which was also extremely terrifying.

The other two wolves were not far away from the six dire wolves, they just fell far behind, watching what happened, and did not rush up together...

Instructor Eleanor let go of the vine with both hands, and her body flew forward more than ten meters by inertia. She stepped on a branch of a big tree with both feet, and jumped up again just by stepping on it, her body was extremely light , the dire wolves behind could only follow the back of Instructor Eleanor. Although they kept getting closer, they couldn't catch up easily.

When Instructor Eleanor rushed into the ambush circle of the trap and saw some symbols drawn on every tree, Instructor Eleanor followed the safety instructions and ran forward.

The six dire wolves seemed to have smelled the danger ahead, but at this time, Instructor Eleanor stopped on a big tree in front, picked up the longbow in her hand, and pointed at the dire wolves chasing up again. Shoot an arrow.

Although this arrow has no lethality, it is full of provocation.

The six dire wolves could no longer control the anger in their hearts, so they rushed up with a whimper. When they rushed into the forest clearing, they found that the clearing in front of them was suddenly dusty, and a large net fell from the top of their heads. .

The dire wolves immediately evaded in all directions, but at this moment, a layer of sharp ice crystals grew on the ground under their feet.

'Ice Trail'

Magician Scarlett's ice magic covered the entire forest glade. The dire wolves didn't notice it when they ran in, but when they were about to turn around, their claws immediately felt a tingling pain, and they were also driven by inertia , fell down on the icy trail one after another.

A large net fell instantly, covering five of the dire wolves firmly within it.

Only one dire wolf escaped from the net by chance. Just as it was furious and wanted to turn around to save its companions, an arrow wrapped in wind element pierced through the air and just stuck in its forehead. .
