Mercenaries and Adventurers

Kiel pierced the last northern wolf in front of him with a sword, and then pushed the charging northern wolf away with his shield.

"Huh." Exhaling a breath full of blood, he retracted his sword, then stepped on a northern wolf next to him, and pulled out the spear that had passed through the bodies of the two northern wolves.

The gun barrel was covered with cryogenically frozen wolf blood. The cold weather caused the blood, which was hot just a moment ago, to quickly freeze into red ice blood clots. They hung on the gun barrel, which was rough and troublesome. Kiel gripped the barrel of the long gun tightly, and used his thick armor gloves to stroke the barrel back and forth a few times, finally cleaning the barrel clean.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that the hunters guarded by him had already recovered all the available arrows. But even though they had opened the wooden wall gate that was blocked before, they looked at Kiel frequently when they were carrying the northern land wolf corpse.

"Hey, friends, what are you looking at me for?" Somewhat puzzled, Keir asked while putting away his weapon and walking towards the wooden wall with a northern wolf's tail in each of his left and right hands.

A young hunter looked at Keel with wide eyes: "Keir, seriously, how did you kill so many northern land wolves by yourself?"

An old hunter next to him pushed the young man's back: "How to kill him? Didn't you see it just now? Little Keel is really capable, and it's not like you don't know about it."

"No, no. I see it, but I still find it unbelievable." The young hunter said after passing through the narrow wooden wall gate, and then threw the northern land wolf corpse into the space behind the wooden wall.

Keel muttered something under his breath. He knew that if he only relied on his normal skills, it would not be impossible for one person to defeat many northern land wolves just now. As for just now, he did it by relying on the magical effect of the red-eyed mushroom.

During the battle just now, he moved left and right, and only his shield was in contact with the northern land wolf all over his body, and the rest of his body was not even scratched by the northern land wolf.

He first used a long spear to stab the two northern wolves who were most eager to attack, and then hunted and killed the other northern wolves who were cowering back one by one with a powerful long sword.

Those timid northern wolves really lost their leading wolf, and their level dropped drastically. Only when the sword edge was at hand, did they know how to fight to the death. But at that time, Kiel had already seized the opportunity. As soon as the opportunity was missed, Keir was able to deal with it one by one.

But Kiel and the others haven't been able to relax for a long time. Just after transporting the 20 or so large and small corpses of northern land wolves to the wooden wall, the footsteps of a large number of northern land wolves running are reflected from the rock wall of the hard rock passage.

The veteran hunter standing on guard on the wooden wall had rich experience, and he knew that there were quite a few northern land wolves attacking just by his voice.

"Everyone come back quickly, and then seal the wooden wall gate!"

"Come back and seal the door!"

The two roared loudly, and the people below quickly carried the Northern Land Wolf corpse and ran back.

"Don't worry about that thing on your body, come back quickly! I'm going to seal the gate." A hunter was right by the gate. After disposing of the corpse in his hand, he immediately picked up a man thicker than his thigh. Log roared.

While running, Keir tightened his grip on the adult northern land wolf that was on his shoulders. Fortunately, everyone didn't procrastinate in their actions. They quickly took out the energy that they couldn't see before, ran back to the door, passed through the narrow gate, threw the corpse down, and immediately helped seal the door.

Keir was the last one to run back. As soon as he came back, the hunters on the left and right hurriedly picked up the thick logs in groups of two and stuck them horizontally at the gate.

From bottom to top, everyone grouped and blocked the logs horizontally.

Keir felt that he had great strength, so he picked up a thick piece of wood horizontally by himself, and lifted the piece of wood to the height of the gate with a groan. The lower places at the bottom have been taken care of by the companions, and only a few logs above the man's chest are not blocked.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Keel turned around and picked up the remaining logs handed over by his companion, and completely blocked the wooden wall gate three times in one breath.

"It's really strong." The old hunter who was present patted Kiel on the shoulder as a compliment, and then drove the other young people to climb up the wooden wall, and the northern land wolf would come soon.

Picking up the spear lying on the ground, Keir also ran up the wooden wall.

-

Without keeping everyone waiting, or even saying a few words of encouragement, one after another the northern land wolves ran up from the turning of the distant passage.

"Hold on, there are a lot of northern wolves this time, but we don't have many bows and arrows in our hands. So put them all closer before shooting!" The old hunter in command, Tost, shouted loudly, demanding a lot.

Although his requirements are very high, all the hunters present at this time probably have more than a dozen northern wolf lives in their hands. Even the youngest hunter, after the last few days of fighting, his archery skills are also very good. Cengcengceng to rise.

Not to mention the old hunters who have been fighting the northern land wolf for several years. Although these old hunters are very tired at this time, their hands are more stable than ever.

Stillness is like a stone statue, but movement is more flexible than the legs and feet of a hare.

Amidst the rumbling footsteps, the northern land wolf quickly passed the dead body, and then charged.

"shooting!"

As soon as the words fell, the six hunters followed the tight rhythm and shot the arrows in their hands, starting with Tost who was in charge. After the youngest hunter, Fick, shot the last arrow of this round, the old hunter, Tost, shot a new round of arrows.

The hunters shot very fast, but because they aimed at nearby enemies, their accuracy did not decrease at all, and even increased slightly.

However, the accumulation of combat experience on the human side has increased, and this wave of northern land wolves is not bad.

Some stronger adult northern land wolves picked up the corpses of dead northern land wolf cubs on the ground and blocked them in front of their heads. Although they couldn't see the way, as long as they rushed forward, they couldn't go wrong. .

Faced with such a cunning opponent, the hunters have no good way, because the bow and arrow in their hands cannot shoot through the corpse of a northern wolf and then injure a northern wolf behind, so in order not to waste arrows, the hunters The Northern Land Wolf had no choice but to get out of the way and aim at other targets instead.

But in this way, those northern land wolves learned it, and imitated it one after another.

However, the corpses of some dead adult northern wolves were heavy, and other northern wolves couldn't stand up in front of them. The poor imitation didn't have much effect at all. The hunters only needed to aim a little bit to find the flaws that were not covered up. , thus shooting the northern land wolf hiding behind the corpse.

After those northern land wolves approached the wooden wall with the dead body, they immediately threw the dead body into the empty space under the wooden wall, and then seemed to know that they could not climb up, and immediately turned around to look for other dead bodies to try to pile up here.

A well-built northern wolf kept barking on the chaotic battlefield. It was far away from the front line of the battle, but seemed to be constantly directing the attacking northern wolves.

After the old hunter Tost saw the northern land wolf, he immediately stopped the fighting Kiel: "Kiel!"

he roared. It had to be loud, because the wailing and angry howling of injured northern land wolves was everywhere around them. If the sound was lower, they couldn't hear anything at all.

Fortunately, the northern land wolves can't understand human beings, but they don't have to think about how to keep it secret.

"Keir! Did you see the commanding northern land wolf?"

Even if he kept knocking down the northern land wolves trying to climb up one by one with his long spear, Kiel kept paying attention to the entire battlefield.

He nodded: "I see! I know what you mean, but it's not in the right place yet!"

The old hunter Tost frowned tightly when he heard it: "Hasn't it arrived? Damn it. Bring it over and get rid of it! Think of a way!"

Kiel under the visor rolled his eyes: "Why don't you shoot it with an arrow?"

Unexpectedly, the old hunter Tost took it seriously. He immediately pulled out an arrow and put it on the bowstring, exhaled and inhaled.

Then, with both arms exerting force, the bow and arrow in his hand was drawn full.

The strong and powerful bow bends backwards from top to bottom, and the strong bowstring goes all the way backwards.

Kilford was heartbroken and shouted, "Shoot it in the face!!"

The old hunter seemed to understand, as if he heard Kiel's cry, and at the same time he drew his bow fully, he let go of his arrow.

Whoosh.

The arrow itself was inconspicuous, but its tail feathers left a clear trail as it flew through the air. This trajectory is straight, just like the ink line drawn by craftsmen on the material before work.

At the same moment, the Northland wolf-headed wolf commanding from a distance seemed to sense the killing intent from the human shooter. With rich combat experience, it deflected its head slightly at a critical moment, and let its head and face pass the trajectory of the arrow.

But after all, the speed was a bit slower, and the face passed by, but his neck could not completely follow the body to avoid the arrow.

The metal arrowhead of the arrow brushed past the front of its neck, crossed half of its neck slightly, and then pierced out from the back of the same side of the neck.

The entire arrow carried the head wolf's neck with great force, and then hit the rock wall behind the head wolf.

Even though the rock wall was extremely strong, the arrowhead of this arrow still pierced into the rock, making a loud clang, leaving only the tail of the arrow to vibrate there, shaking off the wolf blood stained by the arrow.

"Tost! You pig and dog, you missed your shot!" The other two old hunters next to him yelled and scolded after seeing the result of the shooting.

Tost himself blushed even more, and wanted to say something to justify, but after shaking his lips twice, he still didn't say anything.

Keir was also very surprised. He just thought that the old hunter had some special skills and wanted to kill the commanding northern wolf. As a result, it was full of momentum, but the arrow was mostly dodged by the northern wolf.

But even though it didn't hit the target completely, the almost fatal arrow still completely angered the wolf.

Its furious paw slapped away the hand who came to lick its wound to stop the bleeding, and then posed a standard howling posture of a wolf, howling loudly.

"Ah woo woo woo woo!!"

As it howled, more northern land wolves poured in from the rock passage immediately.

"Damn it! There are so many of them, and they are all cunningly hiding in places we can't see!" An old hunter shouted loudly. Others have the same **** expression.

But Keir was very different. He was very excited and shouted at the old hunter Tost: "Good opportunity! Good opportunity! Open the rockfall mechanism! Kill them!"

"Use Rockfall now?"

"Isn't that something reserved for the wolf king?"

Keel yelled, "Forget it! Use it now!"

The old hunter in command, Tost, thought for a moment, and then immediately shot four arrows towards the upper sides of the rock passage.

The four arrows were the same as before, and they successively shot off four small supporting wooden poles and let go of four small inclined stones. The tumbling stone was tied to a rope and immediately carried away a larger supporting stone.

The four stones, which were much smaller than the huge rocks used to deal with the wolf king before, began to roll down one by one.

Every time they hit the rock wall during their fall, they made a huge and loud impact sound, and these noises from above immediately attracted the attention of all the northern land wolves charging below.

They raised their heads in doubt and looked up with wolf faces, and what greeted them was rolling stones weighing more than ten thousand jun.

One stone after another fell into the ground passage. These 'relatively light' stones were not shattered when they hit the ground. Most of them hit a head-sized crater on the ground, and then bounced randomly and slammed into the surroundings. . A small rock even slammed into the wooden wall in the opposite direction, but stopped after crushing several northern land wolf corpses.

But the stop was only for a moment, because the rock passage was an upward sloping road, so all the rock blocks just stopped for a while, and then rolled down along the sloping rock passage.

-

It is said that they are smaller stones, but each one still weighs several tons, so when they roll up, they crush everything that blocks them irresistibly.

Such as the northern land wolf.

The large number of northern land wolves that rushed forward with the howling of the chief wolf before, how they rushed just now, how they retreated when faced with many rolling stones.

It may be inaccurate to say that it is back, and the correct description is that they are scrambling to get together one by one, and they all run desperately to run over the rocks.

No matter how much the commanding wolf yells, it can no longer control the pack of wolves under it. Obviously, it can be avoided by slowing down the rolling stones before they accumulate speed, but at this moment, it has no way to deal with it anymore. .

It turned around and ran away, but was pushed and pinched by the crowd of men. With the sound of getting closer and closer and the sound of flesh and tissue being squeezed and crushed, it finally let out a cry of grief and indignation.

The sound stopped abruptly.

-

On the wooden wall, everyone stopped to watch. Kiel lifted his visor, opened his eyes wide and looked at the carpet of flesh and blood in front of him, trembling slightly.

But the hunters were different. There was a young man lying on the edge of the wooden wall and vomited down, soaking the shivering northern land wolf underneath.

And the old hunter grips his bow and arrow tightly, or pulls his beard in disbelief.

A few northern land wolves near the wooden wall were lying on the corpses, not daring to turn their heads to look behind them. One wolf cub even opened its mouth wide and stuck out its tongue. A stream of white foam gushed out of its mouth. He fainted from fright.

"Huh, huh, huh, huh." Kiel panted for a while, and closed his helmet, as if he wanted to block the tragedy in front of him from the armor, and it seemed that the falling stone trap had nothing to do with him.

Suddenly, a palm patted on the armor behind his back. Slapped by that force, Kiel stopped shaking his body.

"Anyway, Keel. Your trap is well done," said old hunter Tost.

As if disturbed by his voice, the entire quiet battlefield came alive again.

"That's right, Keel. Great."

"The effect of this is much stronger than the big stone before."

"I don't know how many northern land wolves were crushed to death?"

"Then, shall we bring back those northern land wolf 'corpses'?"

"Speaking of which, with such killings, do those northern land wolves dare to attack us again?"

"I can't tell. If it was us, we would definitely not be able to hold on. We would have retreated a long time ago. After all, the battle in the bard's story did not suffer such heavy losses."

"But the northern wolf, that's not sure. These beasts are crazy, the harder you kill them, the more they will fight you to the end."

After talking for a while, everyone quieted down. Stones piled up at the turning in the distance, and no new northern land wolves appeared there~www.readwn.com~ Only some were rubbed by the stones, or barely pressed, and they were still suffering there A low whine.

Keir looked at the situation, talked to his companions, and then turned over and jumped off the wooden wall. First, he beheaded a few northern land wolves that were originally the bravest huddling under the wooden wall, and then he walked carefully to the "flesh and flesh" In Carpet', in the channel where the crushed limbs and arms are overflowing and the brains are overflowing, kill some injured northern land wolves that are close to the rock wall of the channel one by one.

He didn't go any further, and amidst the old hunter's greeting, he first pulled out the arrow from the northern land wolf corpse near the edge of the wooden wall, and threw it over the wooden wall. Then put the complete northern land wolf carcass in the rope sleeve hanging from the wooden wall, and transport the carcasses over the wooden wall one by one, barely filling the space at the bottom of the wooden wall with the northern land wolf carcass.

In the meantime, everyone is ready to pull Kiel on the wooden wall at any time. But the new northern land wolf did not appear.

"They must be scared!"

Said the young hunter.

The old hunter Tost shook his head and said: "Northern wolves are the most crazy and stubborn. They have lost so much, and they will not let us go easily. No matter what they do down the mountain, we will delay until their next attack. It's time to stop defending, let's just kill some northern land wolves and light the wooden wall directly. The camp has been completely demolished, and we must either strengthen the last line of defense, or stuff everything that can be burned under the wooden wall."

"Okay." Everyone said in unison.

Although there are towering rock walls on both sides, the smell of the flesh and blood in the distance still wafts over. Everyone dared not look at the tragic scene, so they closed their eyes one after another, relying on the sensitive ears of the hunters for vigilance.

The others gathered around the fire to take a rest, taking advantage of the fact that the northern land wolves were not infested.
