Chapter 321 Ghost Bird Covering the Sky
Chapter 321 Ghost Bird Covering the Sky
"Awooo" The silver wolf cub was left alone, playing and catching fish in the river, which relieved a lot of the sense of urgency and sad atmosphere.
In the forest twenty miles away, there were continuous roars and occasional howls, which were made by injured ghost beasts.
Of the 80,000 ghost beast army, there are now less than 50,000 left.
This shows how brutal the battle was and how heavy the casualties were.
More than a hundred miles away, groups of ghost beasts were rushing towards the Forgotten Township from all directions.
Further away, a black flock of ghost birds was roaring towards them.
These are the reinforcements requested by the Ghost Wolf King.
The noise made by the demon beast frightened the herd and caused them to flee, and the villagers were in panic.
Especially when people see tens of thousands of ghost birds, like a dark cloud, screaming and whistling past, they are so frightened that they fear that they will swoop down and kill them.
Fortunately, neither the group of ghost beasts nor the army of ghost birds were heading towards them.
It was quiet deep in the dense forest, as a group of a thousand wolf riders were silently lying in ambush.
They were dressed in leather armor, armed with bows and arrows, riding agile silver wolves and gray wolves, hiding among the dense trees, silently.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows, adding a bit of mystery to this silent forest.
Suddenly, a low roar broke the silence.
A group of ghost beasts came galloping and were rapidly approaching the wolf riders' ambush circle.
The ghost beasts are strange and hideous, and they exude a disturbing aura.
The wolf riders held their bows and arrows tightly, their heartbeats quickening as they stared intently at the flock of ghost birds whistling towards them, ready to fire thousands of arrows at the enemy at the command.
Closer and closer, the bowstring was pulled close to the full moon, and the black arrow exuded a sharp murderous intent.
"Shoot!" Following Yihuo's order, the Wolf Rider instantly released the bowstring in his hand.
The bowstrings hummed and the arrows shot out with unparalleled sharpness, rushing towards the group of ghost beasts that were ambushing.
The sound of "swoosh, swoosh, swoosh" breaking through the air was heard immediately afterwards, and arrows shot towards the ghost beast like lightning.
The sound of "Puff, puff, puff" was heard as the beasts penetrated the flesh. The ghost beasts were caught off guard by this sudden attack. A large number of them fell down with blood spurting out, followed by miserable howls.
"Roar" the group of ghost beasts roared angrily and rushed towards the direction where the arrows were coming from.
However, what awaited them was a merciless rain of arrows and slaughter.
The strongest commander of the ghost beast group is only level four. He is completely powerless against an ambush of wolf riders composed of a 540-grade guard team and a third- and fourth-grade hunting team.
The Silver Wolf Guards and Eagle Guards were too lazy to attack.
About a quarter of an hour later, the battle ended, the Eagle Guards began to eat, and the Wolf Riders quickly turned to another ambush.
On the way to the battle, Hanzi said to Yihuo in frustration: "Uncle Huo, we agreed when we came here that the level 4 ghost beast would be left for me to kill, why did you blow its head off with one arrow?"
"Hehe, you can't blame Uncle Huo for this. It was the one who rushed forward to block the arrow." Yihuo laughed.
"My next one."
"Okay, okay. It's yours."
The sound gradually faded away, but this was just the beginning of the guerrilla warfare.
In Yujiazhai, after two days of bloody fighting, Yu Ye, who had recaptured two lines of defense, looked at the sparse herd of ghost beasts in the fields at the foot of the mountain, and said to Sun Weichen with a frown, "Master Sun, it seems that another herd of beasts has been transferred away."
"They should have been transferred to the Forgotten Township. The two sides fought fiercely for a whole day the day before yesterday. At least 30,000 of the attacking ghost beast army were killed. According to the message from my senior brother, the battle was so brutal that even women had to join the battle." Sun Weichen expressed his guess and what he knew.
“Logically speaking, with the strength of the Forgotten Township, they shouldn’t have to use women to fight in the battlefield, right?” Yu Ye was full of doubts.
He knew that the Forgotten Town was very powerful now.
"Because the spiritual guards did not take action, the elite wolf cavalry composed of the escort team and the hunting team did not return to the village to defend." Sun Weichen explained.
"Why is it so?" Yu Ye asked in surprise.
He found it difficult to understand why Forgotten Township was doing this.
"The Spirit Guards didn't take action, probably because they wanted to train the soldiers and civilians. As for the elite wolf riders not returning to defend, they were probably preparing to ambush the beasts that were transferred to the Forgotten Township. This would be a series of massacre-style ambushes."
"That's true." Yu Ye agreed deeply. He knew the strength of the Wolf Riders in Forgotten Township, so he changed the subject and asked about the situation in Manshi Village.
In the forest ten miles away from Manshi Village, Manshan stood on the crown of a towering tree, listening to the roars and looking at the fierce battle between the demon beast army and the ghost beast army in the distance. He asked Wang Weiyuan beside him: "Master Wang, should we continue to act as usual and sneak over to engage in guerrilla warfare?"
"No, no, no, let's do something big this time." Wang Weiyuan said with a gleam in his eyes.
"How to do it?" Manshan became interested.
"The companion is outmatched, so lure the enemy into pursuit, set up a net and wait, do it or not."
"Why not? The timid ones will die of starvation, while the bold ones will die of gluttony."
"Then let's plan it carefully."
It has to be said that as people sensed the benefits brought by the rewards of the will of mountains and rivers, they began to become addicted to it.
This is what it means to have strange love without reason.
At dusk, the sky gradually turned a light golden color.
The sun is about to set below the horizon, and a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere permeates the sky.
However, this tranquility did not last long.
Suddenly, bursts of sharp screams came from the sky, as if demons from another world were screaming.
Immediately afterwards, a group of huge ghost birds flew in from all directions.
They block out the setting sun and dim the sky.
These ghost birds have strange shapes, rough and dull feathers, and fierce cries, like dark clouds covering the sky.
Their eyes flashed with a cold light, as if burning with evil ghostly flames. They circled in the air, making creepy cries, as if mocking the creatures on the ground.
The people on the ground were shocked by this sudden scene.
They looked up at the sky and saw the group of ghost birds getting closer and closer. Their wings flapped, bringing up gusts of cold wind, as if it was the prelude to the coming of death.
The soldiers and civilians on duty could not help but grasp their weapons tightly. Although they were afraid in their hearts, their eyes were very cold and they were ready to fight.
The army of ghost birds was moving extremely fast, as if they were ready to swoop down and attack at any time.
But he suddenly stopped in the sky three miles away from the Forgotten Village, using his voice to overwhelm the enemy.
"Damn it, come here if you have the guts." Someone couldn't help but shout.
"Haha, calm down, calm down, they don't dare to come over." Heizi came roaring and let out a disdainful cry with a bird-like face.
The sound was so loud that it could be heard five miles away, and it angered the army of ghost birds, causing them to let out strange howls.
With a roar, the army of ghost birds flew away and disappeared into the mountains and forests twenty miles away.
On the wall, Li Huiling looked at Heizi hanging in the air and sighed: "Heizi Commander is really brave and wise. He dared to provoke the ghost bird army to surrender. This is really a heart-breaking strategy."
