Unparalleled Beast Soul

Chapter 220 Occupation

The battle in Hailanji came to an end when it was dark. The barbarians entrenched in the ruins were slaughtered by Thunder Beast warriors, and only a few cavalry escaped. 【】

However, the rangers led by Qiangwei were waiting outside, unless they had wings, they would not be able to escape the interception of the leopard scouts.

The battle of Hailanji was the first real battle since the Thunder Beast Brigade entered the extreme arctic ice field. Apart from the first appearance of the frost giant war puppets, what left a deep impression on Leon was the bravery of the barbarian warriors.

The fighting spirit seemed to be in the blood of every barbarian. After the Frost Giant was knocked down by Leon and the front line of defense was broken through, the remaining barbarians retreated to the ruins. The most tragic street fighting.

They had no warriors or mages, no elite mercenaries of the human race, who resisted desperately with their battle axes and maces.

Although the Thunder Beast warriors were well-equipped and led by four warriors including Leon and Rockhammer, they still paid a price of dozens of casualties in the battle to wipe out the remnants of the enemy, and the seven warriors remained on this unfamiliar snow forever.

These seven fighters were all new recruits, and their lack of experience made them make irreversible mistakes in close combat.

Although the loss was not too great, and the injured soldiers basically recovered after the shaman's treatment, Leon was still quite annoyed, and ordered to kill all the enemy prisoners and wounded who had lost the ability to resist, leaving only the Two survivors were interrogated to extract confessions.

War has always been so cruel, and there is no room for mercy.

After all the remnants of the enemy were eliminated, Leon ordered the Hailanji to be cleaned up. The corpses of the barbarian soldiers cut off their ears and peeled off their leather armor and buried them together to remove all obvious traces of battle and prepare for the next step.

Finally, he held a simple but grand funeral for the fallen soldiers.

According to the information Leon obtained earlier, Hailanji was a supply transfer point set up by the barbarian army for the defenders of Valen City, and [-] soldiers including [-] cavalry were stationed here.

No human mercenaries are willing to taste the taste of the extreme arctic ice and snow storm in the ruins under harsh conditions, so the high-level barbarian army sent a frost giant to strengthen the defense force of Hailanji.

The Thunder Beast warriors found a large amount of food, fodder, and leather armor weapons in the warehouse in the ruins.

The information obtained from the prisoner's mouth showed that a convoy passed through Hailanji and transferred to Valen City four days ago, and another convoy would arrive the day after tomorrow as usual.

The raging storm on the extreme arctic ice field made the transportation of materials very difficult, and the consumption of tens of thousands of troops in Valen City was an astonishing number every day. In order to meet the needs of the defenders, the delivery intervals of the transport teams were very short.

After figuring out the general situation, Leon personally wrote a letter and used the Green Falcon to report the situation to the third battle group in the rear in time.

Night fell silently.

On this starless night, the dark ice field was empty and cold, only the whistling north wind brought faint roars of unknown beasts.

There was a little bit of fire in the Hailanji, which was the bonfire set up by the Thunder Beast warriors. Thanks to the large amount of supplies prepared by the barbarians at this turning point, they can use dry wood, iron pots and dried meat to cook a delicious, hot meal. A steaming meal.

It was the best dinner they had had in days.

Only the scouts are still cruising on the outside to guard. In this dangerous place, one must never lose vigilance.

Leon sat on the thick animal wool blanket, picked up a small bone china bowl and drank it in big gulps, the hot gravy fell down with a tangy aroma, and his hungry stomach immediately stretched out, warm and very comfortable.

There was also a little spice mixed into the broth, which whetted his appetite even more. Qiangwei, who was sitting next to him, promptly delivered a golden-roasted leg of lamb.

After wolfing down a whole delicious leg of lamb with the skin and bone, Leon's appetite was mostly satisfied.

Watching her beloved finish the food she baked with her own hands, Qiangwei had a joyful smile on her face, no matter how tough she was, she was always a woman.

"Don't go to watch the night at night, take a good rest, you have suffered with me during this time!" Leon said softly.

From Saarland to this extreme northern ice field, Qiangwei trekked with him all the way, the girl's beautiful face was a bit more frosty, and the days of rapid march in the snow and today's battle made her look even more A little haggard.

"I'm fine, as long as I can stay by your side, I'm willing to suffer even more." Qiangwei gently leaned into Leon's arms, closed her eyes and sniffed the familiar body breath, and said faintly: " I just hope this war ends sooner rather than later."

"It won't be too far..." Leon hugged her, his heart was warm.

In this cold winter night, there is nothing warmer than having a loved one by your side.

Beside the small bonfire, the tenderness is flowing.

It's a pity that such a beautiful atmosphere was quickly broken.

"Boss, come quickly, we dragged this big guy back!" The rough voice of Rock Hammer came from not far away.

Leon and Qiangwei looked at each other and smiled, and they stood up together.

"Go! Let's go!"

The big guy dragged back by Rock Hammer was the Frost Giant who was knocked down by Leon.

The 20-foot-tall war puppet collapsed on the ground like an irregular soldier mound. Rock Hammer mobilized more than 50 soldiers to forcefully drag it from the outside to the edge of the Hailanji ruins with the help of ropes and other tools.

This big thing that weighs tens of thousands of pounds is too conspicuous, and it is very easy to be found outside, but it is extremely difficult to move it back into the ruins, so it can only be left here temporarily.

Several soldiers held up the torches, illuminating the surrounding snow. Leon walked around the Frost Giant, and found that the ice armor cut through by himself on its neck had returned to its original state. It was broken more than a foot deep.

The self-recovery ability of this kind of war puppet is really amazing. It must be known that its controller is dead, which is obviously the ability of the puppet structure itself.

So this frost giant fell into Leon's hands without any damage.

But this does not mean that Leon can use it to fight for himself, so the Frost Giant is a unique war weapon of the barbarians, and its most special feature is that it can only be controlled by the giant barbarians.

The Frost Giant War Puppet has three grades: Silver, Azure, and Crown. This puppet belongs to the most common silver grade and is more common in the barbarian army.

The war between Beamon and the barbarians lasted for hundreds of years, and the kingdom captured many frost giants during the war, some of which were relatively complete. It is not that the kingdom has not researched and imitated this kind of war puppets, but at most it can only create Some ordinary giant puppets that are not used much.

And the human race with barbarians as their subordinate race also cannot master this unique skill, and no one can control the frost giant.

Therefore, even if the frost giant was intact, it was of no value to Leon. He wanted to destroy it completely so as not to fall back into the hands of the barbarians.

But if it was chopped up and annihilated like this, Leon also felt a little unwilling, and felt that it was completely reckless. He had personally experienced the power of this war puppet.

"Turn it over!" Leon ordered.

He wanted to try to see if he could open this puppet, and what kind of wonderful structure it was inside, so that even the puppet could gain a deeper understanding of it.

The battle of the Thunder Beast Squadron on the extreme northern ice field has just begun, and they will definitely encounter barbarian war puppets in the future, and maybe even more powerful frost giants.

So for Leon, it is very necessary to strengthen his understanding of the Frost Giants.

With the joint efforts of Rock Hammer and other fighters, the Frost Giant was turned over and lay face up on the ground.

Even lying on the ground completely, this war puppet is as tall as a person.

Leon asked a guard to follow him with a torch and carefully observed it from head to toe. Since the giant barbarian can enter the inside of the war puppet, there must be a way to open the thick layer of ice armor on the outside. .

The structure of the frost giant's outer armor is not complicated, so Leon quickly got clues.

"Rock Hammer, come help me!" Leon called Rock Hammer over.

The two stood on both sides of the frost giant, one on the left and one on the right, holding down the underside of its breastplate and pushing forward together.

Both Leon and Rock Hammer are powerful warriors. Together, they can move even tens of thousands of pounds of boulders. The huge frost breastplate immediately made a tooth-piercing friction sound, and opened its feet towards the head. There are five or six feet.

it is as expected!Leon laughed, put one hand on the edge of the ice armor and jumped up.

The inside of the war puppet was immediately presented in front of his eyes.

The body of the frost giant is a hollow space in the shape of a human, and the corpse of a strong barbarian just fits into it.

The appearance of this barbarian is not much different from that of ordinary barbarians. His whole body is almost naked, only wrapped in sackcloth, his face is pale, his eyes are closed, and his face is smeared with colorful paints.

Most of the bald skull was blown away, and the brain mixed with blood was splashed everywhere, which was disgusting.

He was also considered extremely unlucky, being blindly shot by Leon with a goblin firecracker, and died a miserable death.

"Is this the giant barbarian? Isn't it good?" Rock Hammer also jumped up from the other side, and the corpse inside shook his head and said, "I really don't know how he controls this big guy."

This question is probably asked by many people.
