Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 430 Food and Medicine
The area of the dense forest in front of you can be said to be large or small. .As long as the weather doesn't change suddenly and there's a heavy snowstorm or rain or something, the fire here is probably going to burn for a long time. Fortunately, there are many mounds around it, so it is unlikely to cause a large-scale wildfire, so even if it is burned to ashes, it will always be extinguished.
Now the fire here is soaring into the sky, and the thick smoke is rising into the sky. Movements can be seen from more than ten miles away, so it is obviously not suitable to stay for a long time. Therefore, although everyone was extremely exhausted after narrowly surviving the fire, Frey finally integrated the team a little and set off.
The number of people counted was more than 250. This result is undoubtedly frustrating. You must know that there were more than 600 people in this team this morning. Who would have expected that after an encounter, the casualties were more than half, and the destination is still far away. This has to cast a shadow on everyone's heart.
Of course, this shadow was very light. After all, the opponent we just encountered was the Wild Wolf Rider, who was famous in the north. They were able to survive so many people with almost the same number, and they even managed to inflict a heavy blow on the other side, setting off a fire that burned most of the Wild Wolf Riders to death... This kind of record, if reported, would be enough to shock the three frontline armies. And the attacking Northern Wilderness tribe! Just as a soldier couldn't help but sigh when he was watching the fire - even if he dies now, this battle will be worth it...
…
The front of the team.
Tang, how is Michu's condition? Looking at the simple stretcher made of branches and green vines behind him, Frey broke the slightly dull atmosphere of the team and turned around to ask.
Tang En shook his head slightly: The wound is under control. There shouldn't be any major problems for the time being.
That's good! Frey patted Tang En on the shoulder and comforted him, Don't worry, with Michu's physique and strength, everything will be fine.
That's right, brother Tang En, your gray... gray space? Well, the people in it are all great people, and they won't be sacrificed so easily.
Yes, I have experience in this. As long as you survive the first few days, the rest will be much better...
Elt and Taka also gave a few blessings, but their smiles were a little forced and they seemed not to be in high spirits.
This is also normal. The soldiers of the Heavy Sword Battalion and the Tomahawk Battalion are relatively weaker. After the fierce battle just now, these two Bran Battalion-level organizations were completely disabled. Elt and Taka now only have a few dozen soldiers left in total, and they almost became bachelor battalion commanders.
After talking about this topic, the atmosphere in the team finally relaxed a little. Nowadays, as a frontline soldier, there is no tomorrow. They had seen too many situations where the lively comrades beside them could turn into cold corpses in an instant. Over time, they naturally became accustomed to numbness and forbearance.
Gradually, the conversation among Frey and others shifted from the current casualties to the upcoming escape journey.
Those Wilderness Wolf Riders are probably not dead. After suffering such a big loss, they will never let us go. Well, their remaining strength is not enough for a surprise attack, but we must be careful of being tracked.
What Frey said was true. When Tang En ordered the fire to be set, the Wild Wolf Cavalry immediately responded by retreating. Although most of them were trapped by the soldiers here regardless of their own safety, the Wild Wolf Cavalry near the periphery had a chance to escape. Of course, the number of escapees will definitely not be too many, but with the other party's tracking skills, it is indeed a big threat.
Tang En said in a deep voice: Don't worry, I have arranged Luke to the back of the team.
Huh... this is the best. With the Luke brothers behind them, I'm afraid they won't dare to catch up. Both Elt and Tara were aware of Luke's divine archery skills, and both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
Frey nodded and then continued solemnly: One more thing, no matter how those damn Wild Wolf Riders tracked us before, we can no longer sneak attack on the barbarian team. During the march, we must also clear away obvious traces .”
Elt and both nodded, and Tang En had no objection. Just like what he said to David before, their team can no longer withstand such emergencies. If they can survive this time, they may not be so lucky next time.
After pondering for a while, Elt frowned and asked: What about our food?
Looking for it from the mountains, hunting wild animals, digging wild vegetables. Frey glanced at the soldiers behind him, his face was a little sad, and he sighed, Alas, we are no longer the same team as before...
Erte and Taka opened their mouths when they heard the words, and then they reacted, their pained expressions disappearing in a flash. Yes, they are indeed not the more than 600 people before. If it was still that size, they would have to attack the barbarian team for more rations. But there are only more than 200 people now, and the wild things in the mountains should be able to support it.
…
Next, the direction of the team is still east, but the route has changed a lot.
Basically, it is not a mountain road, but shuttles between mountains and woods. In this way, the journey is undoubtedly far, there are many unnecessary detours, and it is quite difficult to walk. But there are two advantages. One is that it is not easy to be exposed in such an environment, and the other is that you can take the opportunity to find some food.
Such conditions are undoubtedly difficult. It is winter now, when wild animals return to their nests to hibernate, and it is difficult to encounter the black bear den as lucky as before. So now all the soldiers are basically vegetarians. As long as they can identify which plants are edible and non-toxic, they will devour them without hesitation - it has nothing to do with taste, but only with hunger and life!
At this time, everyone began to miss the days when they were tired of eating meat every meal in the past few days. The taste of the barbarian meat is not very good, but at least it has oil and can fill your stomach. It doesn’t have to be like this now, or you just ate something bad and your stomach is burning. Or I just can't eat anything and my stomach is empty...
Compared to the miserable soldiers, Michu's current conditions are pretty good, with broth every meal. David kept his promise, no matter what time of year, pheasant, guinea pig, etc., he could always find one.
However, although nutrition kept up, Mi Xiu's wound eventually became infected, causing some physical diseases. The short spear was thick and strong, and with such a large wound, coupled with the flaming purgatory-like environment at that time, infection was almost inevitable. Mi Xiu's body has been hot and cold these past few days, which is particularly abnormal. Tang En was also helpless in dealing with this situation. There is a prescription, and Tang En found it from the old butler who was well-read. But the corresponding herbs were a big problem. Even though David led people to take risks to expand the scope and search frantically, they still couldn't get them together.
This situation is also inevitable. Each kind of medicinal herb has a different habit and the environment in which it grows is also different. It is undoubtedly impossible to collect all the symptomatic herbs in one place. However, Michu's condition could not be delayed any longer. Tang En had no choice but to enter the space again and let the old housekeeper prepare a potion based on the limited herbs on hand.
The old housekeeper was really helpful and came up with a prescription again. However, it was bluntly stated that the medicine prepared according to this prescription was not a symptomatic medicine and could only temporarily curb the deterioration of Michu's condition.
At this point, Tang En couldn't control much, so he immediately prepared a potion for Mi Xiu to take. The result was exactly what the old housekeeper said. Michu's condition of hot and cold was greatly relieved, but he was still weak and unable to move.
Upon seeing this, Tang En became ruthless and asked Dawei and others to conduct a reconnaissance while looking for medicinal herbs to see if they could find a large barbarian army around... Medicines are essential supplies for the army. Now, even before the collision Tang En also recognized the army of tens of thousands of barbarians, and they wanted to break into the dragon pool and the tiger's den!
Tang En took Gray Space and was busy treating Michu, while Frey, Elt and others led the team to find food and get rid of the pursuers behind them...
Frey was right to worry. When the team first set off, there were indeed several Wild Wolf Riders following them on giant bald wolves. However, as soon as they entered the ten-mile range of the team, they were ambushed by David, Luke and others, and no one escaped. There is also a small episode here. Naturally, no one cares about the corpses of the barbarians, but the giant bald wolves were brought back by David, skinned and cramped, and finally the soldiers were relieved...
After destroying these wild wolf riders, the team was never tracked or attacked again in the following days. However, no one dared to be careless. The Wild Wolf Cavalry was so powerful in the north and south, but now hundreds of people were burned to death by a fire. Such humiliation was impossible to swallow. Therefore, the most likely possibility now is that the other party has sent heavy troops and is frantically searching for places where Tang En and the others cannot see.
However, this gradually has little to do with them. Because, after a few days, the team finally arrived at the edge of the wilderness. And at this moment, David, who was full of excitement, suddenly turned around, grabbed Tang En's arm tightly, and shouted that Michu was saved...
