Chapter 45 Rescue Transport Team

The "eye of the wind" in the center of the sand roll dust has a relatively soothing airflow, which can be used for riders to shelter, while the peripheral wind forms an airflow barrier, which can deflect arrows and even bullets fired by the enemy.

The first difficulty that Gao Fei and Jiang Feng faced was to climb onto Sha Juanchen in a more elegant way. During this period, if they were a little careless, they would be blown off by the whirlwind, and they would be ashamed in front of everyone.

None of them have ever been trained to ride a whirlwind, and they must succeed on a DC 12 Athletics (Strength) or Gymnastics (Agility) check to gain a foothold on the whirlwind.

High-flying berserkers are proficient in the "Athletic" skill, gaining a 2-point proficiency bonus on the check, and a Strength attribute of 20 provides a +5 modifier.

To be on the safe side, Gao Fei also turned on Berserk before going on the field, which increased his strength correction by 2 points, and he could pass the test as long as the 20-sided dice had no less than 3 points—if all these failed, then he should really burn incense and pray Bad luck.

Jiang Feng's monk was good at the "gymnastics" skill, and with the +4 agility correction, he passed the test relatively easily, standing firmly on the whistling and circling salon scroll.

Gao Fei was a little nervous at first, and stretched out his hands in vain, but there was no rein to grab, so he could only bend his knees and squat down, lowering his center of gravity, stabilizing his figure above the trembling airflow.

After getting used to it for a while, I felt much better, so I tried to communicate with Sha Juanchen and let it fly slowly around the square.

This novel and exciting feeling is a bit like flying a paraglider. After Gao Fei gets used to it, instead of feeling afraid, he can’t stop, as if he is a big bird, spreading his wings and soaring high in the sky with the help of updrafts.

Flying around the square, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng drove Sha Juanchen back to the original place and jumped down.

The moment his feet hit the ground, there was a round of applause in the square.

General Rodriguez was also applauding for them, with a rare smile of appreciation on his face.

In order to commend "Baron Lopez" for his extraordinary courage and awareness of obeying the orders of his superiors, His Excellency the General awarded him the rank of captain on the spot.

Goofy, as the Baron's aide-de-camp and personal assistant, was also awarded the rank of second lieutenant.

In addition, Jiang Feng also received a system prompt:
Successfully won the appreciation of General Rodriguez and received 300XP as an experience reward!

……

On the second day after Gao Fei and Jiang Feng came to Fort Iron Fist, they led the team to carry out the mission under the order of General Rodriguez.

The cause of the incident also started with Major Garcia, the quartermaster of the Fort Iron Fist garrison.

Two weeks ago, Major Garcia led a camel caravan transporting military supplies from Sevinia to provide supplies for the garrison of Fort Iron Fist.

According to the normal itinerary, the transport team should have arrived at Fort Iron Fist three days ago, but it has not arrived so far because of an accident on the way.

Yesterday afternoon, Major Garcia's messenger rushed to Fort Iron Fist on a sand roll, bringing bad news: the transport team was trapped by quicksand, and what was even more frightening was that there was a large group of "giant ant lions" lurking in the quicksand monster!

Taking advantage of the transport team's camping at night, these monsters dug countless quicksand traps in the sand around the camp, trapping the transport team in them with no way out.

It wasn't until the next morning that the patrol team at the camp noticed that the surrounding landscape had changed strangely. During the investigation, two team members unfortunately fell into the quicksand pit and were bitten by the giant ant lion hiding at the bottom of the pit with a pair of sharp jaws Struggling desperately but unable to get out, he was finally dragged into the bottom of the pit and brutally killed.

The other patrol members witnessed this horrific scene and watched their comrades being hunted and killed by monsters. The screams from the depths of the bunker gradually became fainter. They were all terrified and rushed back to the camp to report to Major Garcia.

After Major Garcia heard the news, he led his guards to explore the way himself, trying to break through the blockade of the quicksand pit and find a safe way out for the transport team.

However, after some attempts, Major Garcia had to give up the idea of ​​a detour—the camp of the transport team was surrounded by quicksand pits dug by countless giant ant lions, and there was no safe way to go. path of.

Major Garcia had no choice but to return to the camp and write to his immediate superior, General Rodriguez, for support.

Your Excellency the General considered for a moment, and decided to hand over the task of rescuing the convoy to Baron Lopez.

If you look at this issue from the perspective of a game player, it is obvious that this is a main task.

Rescuing people was like putting out a fire. Gao Fei and Jiang Feng received orders from His Excellency General and led the Lopez Family Guards to set off from Fort Iron Fist that morning to rush to rescue the trapped transport team.

Jiang Feng activated the "fast-forward mode" and skipped the entire day's rapid march. The camera switched to the next morning, and the transport team's camp had already appeared at the end of the field of vision.

In front of him was a flat sandy land that spread out like a golden carpet. At first glance, there was nothing unusual. To be on the safe side, Jiang Feng ordered the troops to slow down in the name of the baron, and pay attention to the movement under their feet, so as not to fall into the quicksand trap.

When the troops were less than a mile away from the camp, a sharp horn sounded suddenly from above the camp.

Gao Fei and Jiang Feng looked at each other, quickly reined in the camel's reins, and ordered the troops to suspend their march.

Taking out the monocular binoculars issued by the army, Gao Fei observed the place where the sound of the horn came through the lens.

Standing on the sentry tower of the transport team camp was a man wearing an officer's uniform. Beside him, a sentry was blowing his horn vigorously, and another sentry was waving a fiery red flag, as if he was making a semaphore.

"Colonel Garcia is warning us to be careful on our feet and continue to march forward. We may step into a quicksand trap at any time."

Gao Fei interpreted the horn and semaphore according to the system prompts.

"The camel team was trapped in the camp and couldn't get out, and we couldn't get in, what should we do..." Jiang Feng looked sad.

"If there is enough sand and dust, Major Garcia and the others can be rescued from the air." Gao Fei said.

"Don't say that we don't have that much sand roll dust at all. Even if there is, at most we can only save people. Sand roll dust can't carry a camel, not to mention there are many materials that are heavier than camels, so we can't throw them away here. in spite of."

Jiang Feng sighed.

Gao Fei nodded his head lightly, but couldn't think of a good way for the time being, so he activated an astrolabe energy to detect the monsters hiding deep in the pit through the camouflage on the sand.
