Goblin Heavy Dependence

Chapter 126 Flesh Eater

Ding--

The bell rang sharply and quickly when the trap was triggered, and several unknown birds and beasts flapped their wings in panic and flew up from the treetops.

Following closely behind were several short, angry guttural sounds coming from the dense forest.

No longer hiding their bodies or covering up their movements, the sound of dense and rapid footsteps suddenly rang out, accompanied by the noise of branches breaking.

"Prepare!"

Adeline, who had not fallen asleep since waking up from a nightmare, yelled immediately.

She had already picked up her two heavy hammers with both hands.

Beside him, Berg, who had been uneasy because of the body of "Iron Hand" George, suddenly felt as if "his heart had finally died", and his originally anxious expression disappeared.

Holding a longbow, he quickly retreated while keeping a sharp eye on other directions of the camp to see if there were any ambushes.

Showing some of the professional qualities of a veteran adventurer.

Abby was awakened from his slumber by Adeline's roar. He was still sleepy, but seeing the posture of everyone on the field, he quickly reacted without much explanation.

Fortunately, when they were in the wild, they were required to wear base lining and armor when resting, which saved him a lot of time.

He hurriedly lifted the blanket covering his body, rubbed his eyes, picked up the weapon at his feet, took two steps forward, and stood in front of the men with his shield.

As for Xia Nan, there is no need to mention it.

His highly concentrated perception and attention when practicing [Gravity Compression] made him the first person in the entire team to detect danger.

As Abhi squinted his eyes, adjusted his clothes, and walked hurriedly to his side.

Xia Nan had already tightly grasped the beheading sword, his body tense, ready for battle.

No one moved.

Several people in the "Green Blood" team, except Berg, took the initiative to move back a distance due to his positioning as a long-range shooter.

The other people, including Adeline who had spoken out a reminder, did not move after they took their positions.

The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, and we are in a misty forest in the dark night. A hasty retreat will only disrupt the formation and put the team in an unfavorable situation.

At least... we have to find out the enemy's true identity and see if it's as they imagined based on the remains of the corpses before making any plans.

"Sasha..."

The bushes and grass shrouded in shadows were shaking violently, and the blurry outlines of several of them could be vaguely seen approaching at high speed.

Xia Nan's heart was beating violently, his dark eyes reflected the firelight, and his expression was calm.

Just when the dense footsteps became clearer and clearer, one could even see the hair of the attacker shaking in the dark shadow.

The first thing that emerged from the bushes and came into everyone's sight was a cold light reflecting the campfire.

"call out!"

Sharp arrows tore through the mist, carrying broken leaves and grass seeds with them, and whizzed out.

Extremely fast!

Xia Nan only felt a sudden gust of sharp wind rushing in front of him, and subconsciously raised the long sword in his hand to protect himself.

"top!!"

Sparks fly.

The metals rubbed against each other and sparks flew on the surface of the sword.

In an instant, the sword in his hand felt stagnant and a strong wind passed by his ears.

The next second, the arrow that was originally aimed directly at his chest was blocked by his sword, and its trajectory was deflected, and with the remaining force, it penetrated into the trunk of an oak tree behind him.

"So accurate?"

A chill ran down his spine, and before he could think any more, the enemy, whose whereabouts had been exposed by the trap they had set up in advance, had already rushed out of the forest.

Mixed with a strong smell of blood and foul stench, a sharp and strange howl of excitement came from the air.

Yellowish-brown sticky saliva hung from the side of his mouth and dripped from the barbed tongue; the edges of his everted black nose were moist, and hot air streams were spewed out with his breathing.

The deformed skull looked like a combination of a hyena and a human, with a twisted and sunken forehead that suddenly swelled at the back of the head; the beast's eyes, which reflected a sickly green light in the dark night, were bloodshot, and its gaze was filled with brutality and brutality.

Those were five lean and ferocious gnolls!

The one at the front of the team, which was obviously much larger than the others, was undoubtedly the dangerous monster that came from the western wilderness, wandered to the Misty Forest, attacked several human villages, and was offered a huge reward by the Adventurer's Association.

Gnoll Flesh Eater!
Xia Nan looked focused. The upcoming battle had caused his palms, which were gripping the hilt of the sword tightly, to turn slightly white from the force used.

His eyes were fixed on the gnolls in front of him, who were running like hyenas, using all four limbs and with fanatical expressions.

But I couldn't help feeling a little strange.

First of all, the number of these gnolls is far from the level of the "tribe" mentioned on the association's task board, and they have no ability to attack villages at all.

"Have they sent some troops to ambush in other directions of the camp, or have many of them died in the battle with other adventurers?"

Secondly, although these gnolls in front of him were wearing some ill-fitting armor equipment - obviously stripped from the dead adventurers, at the same time, various wounds could be seen all over their bodies.

The scars left by knife cuts and gun stabbings were only a small part of the whole body. What was really obvious were the pitch-black scorch marks all over the body, as if they had been burned by fire.

Even the "Flesh Eater" that looked like the leader was no exception.

The bloody body of "Iron Hand" George came to mind.

"Did their team do it?"

Messy thoughts emerged, but were cleared away by the loud whistling sound echoing in the air.

Before the battle, Adeline, the captain of the "Green Blood" team, also has the most adventure experience among the few people.

make a prompt decision!

He tied the iron hammer in his left hand back to his waist and took the wooden shield from Abi beside him.

Leaving behind a brief and neat command.

He rushed forward towards the "Jackal Flesh Eater" in front of him.

"I'll hold it back, Shanan, and you take care of the rest!"

Within seconds of the Jackal's appearance, she had made her decision.

The "Flesh Eater" is a powerful enemy that can hold down the strongest enemy by itself, and is also capable of causing huge damage to team members in a short period of time.

This would buy time, allowing Xia Nan, who had the strongest mobility in the entire team, to take advantage of the opportunity to eliminate several other ordinary gnolls.

To be honest, although they have completed many missions together, they also showed strength far beyond that of ordinary adventurers in the battle with "Gap Tooth".

But Adeline was not sure whether Shanan could use the brief few minutes before he could no longer hold on to eliminate the other jackals on the field except the "Flesh Eater".

But now, facing such a dangerous situation.

She could only place her hopes on this young and reliable teammate with a mysterious origin.

Xia Nan had no idea what the other person was thinking at the moment.

As soon as he finished speaking, his body rushed out.

But the direction is slightly different from Adeline's.

His dark eyes stared at the edge of the camp, at the thick grass where the previous arrow had been shot.

——During team battles, cut the back row first.
