Chapter 161 Murloc Village

The two advanced cautiously for some distance, then crouched down behind thick bushes at the edge of the swamp. 【】It is very close to the murloc's village from here, and it is easy to be found if you continue to move forward.

Although Roger had already sent hippogryphs to hover in the air to detect the enemy's situation, these monsters had limited IQ after all, and could only provide him with information such as "the enemy is moving" or "there are many enemies".If you really want to find out the specific situation of the murloc village, you need Roger to observe it himself.

Roger hid behind the bushes, poked his head out carefully to observe the situation in the murloc village, and soon found that these guys were more powerful than imagined.

The village where the murlocs lived should be some ancient human relic.This can be seen from the remaining stone walls and the half-collapsed black stone tower in the middle of the village.These buildings are obviously made by humans, not those uncivilized low-intelligence murlocs.

However, what Roger cared about was not the living conditions of these murlocs, but their number and size.As mentioned in the information provided by the Adventurer's Union, the number of murlocs is between fifty and seventy, and all of them belong to the relatively thin murlocs with rotten fins.However, Roger found that this was not the case at all, just that the number of murlocs he could reach was at least twice as many as the information mentioned.The physiques of these guys are also taller than ordinary murlocs with rotten fins, almost reaching the chest position of adult men.Such a tall physique was even stronger than the more ferocious sharp-toothed murlocs, so that Roger wondered if the Adventurer's Guild deliberately called the murlocs weaker, so as to pay less reward.

However, when Roger's eyes fell on a corner of the murloc village, he immediately understood why the situation he arrived at was seriously inconsistent with the information.There are a lot of food, piles of bread, counting fish, barrels of ale, and even a few human corpses. Murlocs are not picky eaters, as long as they can eat something, they will not eat it. let go.

For murlocs, half-human, half-fish monsters, as long as they had enough food, their body size would be much larger than their normal counterparts, and their reproductive ability would also be enhanced a lot.These murlocs attacked humans and robbed merchant ships on the edge of the mud swamp. Obviously, they lived a very healthy life, which is why they became so strong and their numbers increased very quickly.

"There are at least 120 murlocs." Roger retreated behind the bushes and whispered to Bonnie: "And they are all big men, and their fighting power must be stronger than expected."

She didn't expect the enemy to be so strong, and the female knight was also a little surprised, but she knew Roger's determination to pass the trial, and quickly whispered firmly: "Don't stay too far away from me for a while, otherwise it will be difficult for me to protect you." you!"

"Damn, I'm a big man, how can I let my own woman protect me?!" Roger glared at Bonnie and said, "You should follow me, I'll protect you!"

After knowing the strength of the murloc, Bonnie was not in a relaxed mood.To be honest, she didn't have the confidence to complete the task. If it wasn't for Roger, the female knight might have chosen to retreat.Seeing that Roger was still joking with herself at such a critical moment, Bonnie gave him an annoyed look and said, "Be serious, this is a real battle, and if you are careless, you will die!"

"That's why I told you not to leave me." Roger smiled confidently at Bonnie, and then with a thought, he summoned all his soldiers to the main material world.

A slight distortion occurred in the space near Roger, and then several teams of heavily armed soldiers appeared.These soldiers include Iron Spearmen, Longsword Warriors, Longbowmen, and Light Crossbowmen. As soon as they appeared, they lined up neatly, and they were definitely comparable to those veterans who had experienced many battles.

After working in the past few days, Roger has equipped all soldiers with half body leather armor, making these soldiers more intimidating.Roger also believed that equipped with leather armor would make soldiers more survivable in battle, which was very important for him who was increasingly short of soul power.

Although Bonnie had seen these soldiers under Roger before, she was still very shocked when they suddenly appeared in front of her.At this time, the female knight finally understood why Roger would let herself stay by his side.With these soldiers fighting for Roger, there is no need to worry about any danger the two will encounter.

However, the female knight quickly remembered a question, and she couldn't help but frowned and said in a low voice: "The trial requires students to only use their own power. Isn't it illegal for you to do so?"

"This is my own strength, I just don't show it at ordinary times." Roger said innocently: "And obviously someone is trying to cheat, deliberately trying to kill me. Could it be that others are allowed to cheat, but I don't even Can't you use all your strength?"

Although Roger's words sounded a little unreasonable to Bonnie, the female knight didn't say much, but acquiesced to his approach.Bonnie found it difficult to stick to her principles with Roger. Last time, she turned a blind eye to him using the nightmare beast as a mount, and this time she acquiesced in his breaking the rules of the trial. The female knight was a little worried that if she continued to develop like this, she would eventually be very It is possible to lose yourself completely.

Roger didn't know what Bonnie was worried about. Seeing that she no longer opposed his actions, he immediately sent two soldiers to rush towards the murloc village.

Not long after the two soldiers appeared from behind the bushes, they were spotted by the sentry murlocs.The two sentry murlocs immediately shouted loudly, but their voices were far more exciting than alarms.

Hearing the call of the same kind, more murlocs rushed out of the village, brandishing all kinds of weapons and opening their mouths full of sharp teeth, they rushed towards the two soldiers.After spending so long in the mud swamp, the murlocs have already regarded humans as hunting targets, and human flesh has become the favorite food of many murlocs.Therefore, it is more appropriate to say that these murlocs who rushed out were hunting rather than defending the village.

At least a hundred murlocs rushed out of the village and rushed towards the two soldiers.Although their short legs are not suitable for running on solid and dry land, they are very suitable for the terrain with many muds and pools in the mud swamp.Dozens of murlocs came very quickly, shortening the distance between them and the two soldiers by half in an instant.And more murlocs rushed out of the village shouting and yelling. Although they were already a step behind compared to their kind, they still hoped to get a share of the pie and get some fresh human flesh to taste.

Seeing that the purpose of luring the enemy had been achieved, Roger immediately directed the two soldiers to run towards the bushes.Just behind the bushes, all the soldiers are standing in line, ready to go into battle at any time.
