Little Lord's Dark Castle

Chapter 132 Busy Watchtower 44

In the afternoon, the intensity of the war on the battlefield gradually decreased. It is not yet time for a decisive battle, and both sides are deliberately controlling it.

Unknowingly, it was almost dusk, and after a whole day of fierce fighting, this deserted wilderness was filled with a strong blood.

Bursts of dull drums came from behind the Emerald Empire, which was a signal to withdraw troops. Almost at the same time, a low-pitched horn sounded from the Abyss Demon's side.

Unanimously, both sides chose to withdraw troops.

This battle can be regarded as the most intense battle in these days, except for the first few battles.

On the side of the main army, in the end, the magic-weave warriors of the Emerald Empire were better. Relying on their own strength and advanced magic-weave construction equipment, they completely suppressed the Abyssal Snake Demon Army.

Although the war lasted for a long time, the overall casualties of the main army were only within a thousand people.

The two sides suffered damage to each other, and the magic-weave-constructed warriors failed to leave this abyssal snake demon army in the end, and it could only be regarded as a small victory.

As soon as the main army retreated, the lord's army and ordinary abyssal demon teams on both sides retreated quickly like a tide.

In the jungle, Chu Xin also sensed the news of the retreat, and could clearly feel that the density of abyssal demons on the battlefield had dropped significantly.

As night was approaching, the golden villain's stealth detection advantage would soon be gone, and Chu Xin didn't want to take too much risk, so he took advantage of the situation and led the team back.

After a day of fighting, although most of them were bullying, it would be a lie to say that they were not tired, and it would take a night to restore everyone's energy.

Today, there was no abnormal news from Watchtower 44. During the breaks on the battlefield, Chu Xin would take a look at the situation on the other side of the watchtower. Generally speaking, it was relatively stable.

He wasn't too worried that something would happen to the watchtower. After all, he still had personnel in the watchtower. If there were any irresistible accidents, the information would be passed on in time and the matter would be over. At most, he would sacrifice a few units.

As soon as they returned to the watchtower, they saw Harlow and the others stretching their necks and looking around.

Seeing the return of Chu Xin and others, the eyes of the watchtower guards lit up, killing spiders, breaking the night attack, after several incidents, they have formed a kind of dependence.

For them, Chu Xin's presence was a shot in the arm to stabilize the morale of the army, and they could sleep soundly at night.

It's just that this master is not very peaceful, others wish to be as far away from the battlefield as possible, but he is good enough to take the initiative to move over.

From Harlow's point of view, this is completely a death-like behavior. A group of two-star small chickens are thrown on the battlefield to send food.

It was getting late, and he thought that Chu Xin might not be able to come back, but unexpectedly, he finally came back. Judging from the blood-stained figures of all the people, they really went to the battlefield to fight their lives.

"Is there anything wrong?" Chu Xin asked casually. There was nothing unusual about the watchtower under the watchtower, so he just asked to see if there was any missing information.

"It's calm and the sea is calm. I hope there will be more days like this." Harlow sighed with a relaxed expression.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that a thick shadow of death had been shrouded in his heart for the past few days. It was not until Chu Xin's arrival that Harlow felt much more relaxed.

Chu Xin nodded. Several groups of abyssal demons were damaged on the No. 44 watchtower. They were not fools, and they even delivered food here.

If there is a real demon attack next time, then the strength of the team will definitely be greatly strengthened. At that time, it will not be a force that No. 44 watchtower can withstand.

"Come here, let's deal with these prey, and have extra meals tonight!" Chu Xin pointed to the ghost wolf at the end of the team, and said to Harlow.

Harlow heard the words and looked over, his breath stagnated, and his saliva was involuntarily secreted.

All the ghost wolves carried more or less various strange beasts on their backs, including small ones such as chickens and rabbits, as well as larger ones such as deer and hog badgers.

For a moment, Harlow seemed to have smelled the smell of meat. He clapped his hands excitedly and said, "Brothers, come and help!"

Harlow summoned a few sentry guards from the watchtower to come over to help, killing chickens and rabbits, they were not very good at such things as beating people to death, but it was still possible and willing to do cooking and logistics.

Since he wanted to hug the opponent's thigh, he still had to show his role to some extent.

Several sentry guards in the watchtower swallowed their saliva in disbelief. They hadn't eaten meat for a long time in the wilderness. The supplies on the watchtower side were some simple miscellaneous grains, and meat was basically invisible.

On the Emerald Empire side, carnivorous animals are not widely raised on a large scale, and the military rations are still based on various field grains. Only elite troops can receive such treatment.

"Don't keep it, catch it after eating, there are not many other things in this jungle, and there is never a shortage of food." Chu Xin ordered, these prey were caught by the ghost wolf on the way back.

Leaving Haro alone, Chu Xin returned to her room, and when she touched the bed board, she felt her whole body go limp.

"Shu Tan!"

After muttering something, Chu Xin began to check today's harvest.

After one day, the war points reached over [-], which has already reached his expectation.

Chu Xin was already quite satisfied with this result. The abyss demon slaves on the edge of the battlefield were killing fewer and fewer, and it was quite good to be able to score so many points.

It's not that he didn't try to get closer to the central battlefield, but he only got close for a short distance, and the danger level increased geometrically. He accidentally encountered several sudden pursuits, but fortunately, he was able to get rid of them smoothly .

In fact, if there were enough abyssal demons in the periphery, his war points might exceed one hundred thousand in one day.

It's a pity that this is only an ideal state. Abyssal Demons are not fools. They line up to brush him. Every time they choose a target, there are too many situations to consider, which also consumes a lot of time.

This is also worthwhile, because of this caution, there is no major danger on the battlefield.

The meritorious service has finally broken through the [-] unit. The low-star abyss demon slaves have given very few meritorious service. If it is not for the amazing number, it may not be possible to break through the [-] meritorious service today.

In addition, there were all kinds of abyssal demon materials, such as horns, scale armor, eyeballs, etc., which were in a mess. Chu Xin didn't know what to use, so he threw them into the warehouse.

There was only one time when the War Treasure Chest released a more useful special item called Devil's Breath, which could assimilate the surrounding area into the breath of an abyssal devil, which should be helpful for camouflage and lurking work.

The progress of Hundred Devils Slash has reached 48/100, if you are lucky, you can achieve it tomorrow, but the 1% damage bonus is not very useful.

Rescue on the battlefield has been completed 3 times, and there are still 2 people who are social experts. Except for the bad lord No. 1235, another lord who was rescued later still gave away his friendship.

It's just a little stingy, except for verbal thanks, he didn't express anything, far less generous than Braden.

This time Chu Xin also unlocked a new achievement, Manu Buster, which appeared after killing 100 Abyssal Demons. It is required to continue killing 10000 Abyssal Demons, which can be completed.

After completion, a lair of Abyssal Demon Slaves will be rewarded, Chu Xin is not very interested.

Although the combat power of this thing is good, it is not very good for command and control. It is not very useful on the battlefield, and it needs specific abyss-type food for recruitment, which is not easy to raise.

In comparison, Chu Xin still prefers simple units such as skeletons and ghost wolves, or those who are not picky eaters like earthworms.

After today, there were losses. There were too many accidents on the battlefield, and it was impossible for everything to go smoothly according to Chu Xin's expectation.

Ghost Wolf lost three heads, and Iron Skeleton lost five, but what is quite interesting is that there was a breakthrough that evolved to three-star strength.

The Han army lost seven people, and the long-range arms did not suffer much.

The orthodox long-range forces on the abyssal demon side are very few. Except for the legal creatures such as the abyssal demon warlock, only the snake demon clan has a small number of snake demon shooters. Chu Xin basically never encountered long-range abyssal demons on the battlefield.

But I have to say that compared to humans, these abyssal demons, even the low-level abyssal slaves, have a higher level of physical fitness than the human race.

This is an innate racial advantage, but what is more prominent on the human side is the endless means that have caused these abyssal demons to suffer a lot.

After inspecting today's harvest, Chu Xin was quite satisfied. After another day or two like this, the war points should easily break through the [-] mark.

On the watchtower side, after one day, the two refuge rooms below have been sorted out. The entire room is covered with wooden planks, and simple reinforcements are made with wooden columns. After the four corners are hung with white fluorite, the environment can still be pleasant accept.

The only problem is that the underground space is a bit cold, which is a disadvantage.

As for the underground passage, due to the absence of the iron scales, the project has temporarily stalled, and currently only one escape passage to the rear has been opened.

"It's been a long time for you!" Chu Xin sighed as she touched the iron scale lying beside her taking a nap.

Chu Xin's movements were very slight, but Tie Lin was still awakened. It looked at Chu Xin sleepily, a little puzzled.

Smiling slightly, Chu Xin handed it a large piece of Black Star Magic Iron as a reward.

Speaking of which, Iron Scale's appetite has changed a lot recently, and some ordinary broken copper and rotten iron are basically not attractive, unless it is a certain level of metal like Black Star Magic Iron, it will be attractive.

Lying on the bed, letting her thoughts go blank, Chu Xin's mood gradually calmed down.

After being tempered in the battle of Changsha, he has a strong adaptability to the battlefield, and he quickly suppressed the restlessness caused by the continuous fighting.

When he calmed down and was about to get up to meditate, Chu Xin's expression changed. He received a warning from the ghost wolf, and a team was coming towards the watchtower.

Opening the map, the other party has entered the range of the watchtower. It is a human team, wearing formal military uniforms, and should be soldiers of the Emerald Empire.

They were traveling at a very fast speed. It took only a few minutes from the discovery of the watchtower to the arrival at Watchtower 44.

"Scout?" Chu Xin looked at the other party's indistinct, inconspicuous clothes, and an idea popped into his mind.

What's going on here, is Watchtower 44 so attractive, whether it's the Abyss Demon or the Emerald Empire, everyone likes to come here to play if they have nothing to do?

Watchtower No. 44 seems to be extraordinarily busy. Logically speaking, this kind of remote watchtower would not be visited so frequently even during wartime.

"What's the matter?" Harlow, who was busy in the kitchen, was called out, and he asked with some doubts.

Chu Xin pointed at the darkness outside the watchtower with his chin. Harlow squinted his eyes for a while, and then saw a group of people coming out of the darkness.

"This is the investigation team of the Empire. I just don't know the purpose of coming here. I'll go and have a look." Harlow said in a low voice, and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Are you the person in charge here? Someone approached, but you didn't react at all, didn't you have any vigilance?" As soon as he came over, the other party immediately asked.

The reconnaissance troops belonged to the regular army, a rank higher than the miscellaneous troops stationed at the watchtower, so there was a kind of arrogance in their words.

The other party's voice was loud, and Chu Xin, who was behind, heard his words clearly. He stopped Haro, who was bending over to please him, and asked coldly, "Who are you? This is an important military site, please show your ID cards." Credentials."

Following his words, the troops behind him were waiting in full force, and an invisible aura came over. After today's fighting on the battlefield, his team had an invisible layer of murderous aura.

The tone of the person who was about to continue reprimanding was stagnant, and his momentum suddenly weakened a little. He said: "We are the frontline investigation force, this is the proof."

Although he was a little angry, Chu Xin's actions were not wrong, and he followed the normal procedure. The leader had no choice but to obediently take out his ID card and wait for Chu Xin to check.

The identity is naturally true, and this can be clearly seen, but Chu Xin just can't understand the other party's attitude, and intends to frustrate the other party.

As the lord who responded to the call, he was not at all worried about offending the other party.

"Dinner is ready." Suddenly someone shouted from behind, breaking the dull atmosphere.

Chu Xin looked up at the other party, and asked politely, "Have you eaten? How about some together?"

"No need!" I don't know if he was angry at Chu Xin's words just now, or because of his arrogance as a regular army, the leader of the investigation team directly rejected Chu Xin's invitation.

In a place like the watchtower, you can know what to eat, even if you think about it, some bad food, you can even use your feet to know what it is.

If you eat a bad stomach, you can't afford to have an accident on the battlefield.

The captain of the investigation team thought so.

At this moment, Ding Xiu came out with a huge roast chicken in his hand. Seeing a group of people gathered here, he seemed a little curious.

A strong fragrance came, and several members of the investigation team looked at Ding Xiu who was gulping his mouth, and suddenly there was a sound of swallowing saliva.

It can't be blamed that they can't control themselves. These days on the battlefield, they have no chance to eat meat at all. Basically, they are marching rations, which they swallow with hard water.

This day is too comfortable!
