Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 24: Wooden Puppet

To Shi Qing and others who were fleeing madly, this sound was like the sound of nature.

As the voice reached his ears, a stunning sword light also came into his sight.

Although the sword light was dozens of meters away, it arrived in an instant, which shows its speed.

The sword light cut through the air, making a sharp hissing sound, which showed its sharpness.

Hearing and seeing are just a moment.

The sword light came suddenly like a silver thread, and it also only lasted for a moment.

The sword was so fast that before Shi Qing and the others could see clearly, two of the thirteen people who had been chasing them had their heads cut off by the sword.

Although it was dark, this was the outer area of ​​Redwood Ridge, and the trees were not as dense as in the inner layer. In addition, the white light from the snow on the ground did not affect the vision of Shi Qing and others greatly.

The sword light stopped, and Shi Qing and his companions naturally saw the person behind the sword light.

At first glance, the leader Shi Qing was included.

Everyone's first reaction was a sense of inferiority.

He was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties. He was wearing a brown velvet fur coat and a soft white velvet collar around his neck, which was obviously made of a cold beast's tail. He was wearing a pair of shiny black fur boots.

The inferiority complex of Shi Qing and others is not without reason.

All the five of them were wearing were animal skin skirts, and they were the kind that had holes all over them and were tattered.

However, even with this kind of animal skin skirt, only less than fifty people out of the more than 300 people in Dashi Camp could wear it.

The vast majority of other people were wearing clothes made of dry leaves.

The so-called dried leaf clothes are made by collecting larger leaves and drying them, then pieced together to make clothes.

Of course, it’s not just Camp Dashi.

Around Redwood Ridge, except for Rogue Camp which is slightly better, the other camps are in the same situation.

There is no way. A complete animal skin is itself a proof of strength.

Even the Rogue Camp could not guarantee that they would not damage the fur of their prey when hunting, let alone their small camps.

Therefore, the young man's complete set of clothes at this moment was enough to make these people feel ashamed of themselves.

Not to mention, the silver sword in his hand destroyed the two monsters in an instant.

While Shi Qing and the others were wondering, the young man moved again.

He swung his sword like dancing, and in a flash, the cold blade cut through the darkness, bringing out seven or eight sword lights in the air. Almost at the speed of cutting melons and vegetables, he beheaded all the remaining ten monsters behind "Xia Ding".

Recalling the scene of themselves and others fleeing in a panic at the hands of the monster, and then looking at the young man killing the monster with ease, such a strong contrast made Shi Qing and the other four feel even more inferior.

After the young man beheaded ten people, he did not rush to attack Xia Ding. He just looked at him calmly and said slowly: "These things you made..."

whoosh...

Before the young man finished speaking, that familiar voice suddenly sounded again.

Shi Qing's face changed drastically and he quickly shouted to remind him.

"Lord be careful!"

But his hint was obviously a bit redundant.

Before the young man spoke, he had already turned his head and looked behind him. His ears twitched slightly, and his gaze quickly shifted to lock onto the top of a big tree on the left side of the dense forest.

"On the tree, Li Hu, Luo Ming, come together!"

He shouted loudly, and two figures came rushing from the right, quickly rushing towards the tree that his eyes were fixed on.

At the same time, the young man no longer cared about the "Xia Ding" and pushed the ground with his feet and rushed towards the tree.

The three men moved so fast that Shi Qing didn't even have time to see clearly before the tree was cut in half by the young men.

The entire upper part of the tree fell to the ground with a loud bang.

This scene made the expressions on Shi Qing and the other four people's faces freeze instantly.

Especially when they found that the tree was broken in half, the golden color inside was revealed.

The five people's pupils trembled and they swallowed their saliva together.

"Cut down the hardest Jinlin tree with one sword?" When they cut down trees, they would only choose Zhushuang trees.

It’s not that the Jinlin tree can’t be cut down, they can cut it down.

But the problem is that it takes them at least ten hours of continuous chopping to cut down a Jinlin tree.

But what did they just see, cutting down the golden tree with one sword?

The five people looked at the young man with eyes that were instantly filled with respect.

After the Golden Rin tree was cut down and collapsed, a black figure jumped up from the top like a ghost and ran towards the inner layer of Redwood Ridge.

But the young man and the other two also reacted very quickly.

The three of them quickly separated into three groups and surrounded the black figure tightly in the middle.

"You want to run away? I finally ran into a junior craftsman. I can't let you run away so easily."

"Don't be careless, this is a wooden puppet. Those people I just killed were probably made of wood and corpses. Maybe he has some tricks up his sleeve. Be careful."

Shi Qing reacted quickly. After hearing the conversation between the two, he glanced over there and saw "Xia Ding" standing still since the black figure appeared. He roughly understood what was going on.

The craftsman ghost and the wooden puppet ghost should both refer to the black figure.

Xia Ding and the logging team members were obviously controlled by it.

Moreover, among the two names the young man just called out, Shi Qing knew one of them.

Luo Ming, the current leader of the Rogue Camp, is also the son of the former leader Luo Feng.

Sure enough, Shi Qing took another closer look.

Among the three, the middle-aged man on the far right with a thin figure, narrowed eyes and a spear in his hand was indeed Luo Ming, whom he had seen several times.

The man on the left, called Li Hu, was of burly build. He wore clothes not much different from the young man. He held a goose-feather knife that shone coldly in his hand and was staring at the black figure in the middle with a fierce look.

Shi Qing also saw clearly the thing that the two men called a wooden puppet.

That wooden puppet, on the surface, looked like an old man in black with a decayed face and a slightly hunched body.

He held a three-inch-long knife in his left hand and a ball of white thread in his right hand. His pair of red pupils were full of ferocity as he looked at the faces of the three people surrounding him, also full of bloodthirsty desire.

"what……"

The wooden puppet suddenly let out a roar, and dozens of transparent silk threads flew out from the ball of thread in his right hand. They seemed to have completely blended into the darkness and disappeared in an instant.

However, the three people surrounding him began to dodge left and right frantically.

Seeing this, Shi Qing also understood that it should be this transparent silk thread that killed his companions before, but they were too weak to see it clearly.

The three people who could see clearly kept dodging in the air.

Of course, it’s not just about dodging.

In just a few breaths, the young man with the sword seemed to have found the flaw. He twisted his waist and leaped towards the wooden puppet. His long sword collided with the silk thread in the air, creating several sparks.

The long sword can cut the transparent silk thread.

When the wooden puppet saw this scene, his face suddenly turned gloomy, and his eyes were fixed on the silver sword in the young man's hand, as if he realized something.

The weapons in Luo Ming and Li Hu's hands were obviously not as strong as the young man's sword. The two continued to dodge, and although they were approaching the wooden puppet, their speed was too slow.

The young man had already swung his sword at the wooden puppet, and the two were still several meters away.

However, both of them haven't arrived yet.

But the young man's strength seemed to be too strong, a little unreasonable.

The long sword slashed across the sky, bringing out a sharp sword light, almost sticking to the wooden puppet. Although it retreated very quickly, the sword force like a storm followed closely.

The young man's sword power was like an overwhelming force, one wave after another, and in an instant he forced the wooden puppet back under a big tree.

At the same time, Li Hu and Luo Ming finally broke through the blockade of the silk threads and came behind the young man.

The three of them seized the opportunity and blocked all the retreat routes of the wooden puppet from above, middle and below.

The long sword slashed horizontally above, the sharp spear stabbed in the middle, and the big knife chopped below.

Under the simultaneous attack from three directions, the wooden puppet had no way to escape.
