From pioneer lord to king

After briefly rescuing the wounded with the medicine he carried with him, Peter led the soldiers to chase after the raised land left by the worms when they fled.

The team of 180 people was killed for the first time, which made Peter take a deep breath. Seeing that the other party was already seriously injured, he couldn't calm down if he didn't catch up and kill it.

The speed of the march was somewhat slowed down by the twenty or so wounded, but the vicinity was very dangerous, at least the target they found excrement hadn't appeared yet.

Peter was worried about leaving the wounded around here or sending a small army to send them back. If something happened, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

After weighing the two, he finally divided the team into two teams, one team continued to chase along the trace, and the other team protected supplies and wounded followed.

The worm has been hit hard, and a team of 90 people is enough to deal with it, but the confident Peter doesn't know that the incident this time far exceeded his expectations...

Before joining the army, Peter was a very experienced hunter. In the past two years in the army, he participated in several battles. He had been working in the scout brigade before, so his tracking experience was extremely rich, and he quickly followed the worms to escape. The trail came to a denser jungle.

This place is a bit strange, the color of the soil is much darker than other places, almost black, and the plants are also very strange.

Although it is not unexpected to have any strange plants in the Warcraft Mountains, based on Peter's experience, these plants are too abnormal. The color is the same as the soil under his feet. From the trunk to the leaves, they are all weird dark green.

Those weeds and shrubs are darker in color, and they are dark green. If there are only one or two, this is normal, but if all the plants that I see are like this, it is a bit weird.

"Captain, why did you stop?" the team deputy asked in a low voice.

Peter didn't speak, but took out a dry food bag from his waist, poured the little crumbs left in his mouth, then grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground under everyone's puzzled eyes, pulled out a plant of grass and put it on the ground. Put it in the bag and hang it back up again.

"Who is this?" The team deputy was very puzzled. He was chasing a monster. You squatted down and grabbed mud for fun?

"There's something wrong with this place, tell the brothers to be careful, and don't overturn the boat in the gutter." Peter stood up and said, his intuition told him that there was something wrong with this place.

As the commander of the heavy armored brigade, his authority is not lower than that of a minister-level senior official, so he knows a lot. There are too many secrets hidden in the Warcraft Mountains. He knows that Ryan is exploring these secrets. He must at least take something back with him.

After instructing everyone to be more vigilant, the team chased along the traces again. The deeper they went, the weirder the shape of the plants became. The straight trunks gradually became distorted, and the branches opened their teeth like devil's claws. .

It's too quiet here, not to mention the sound of wild animals, not even the sound of birds and insects, it's like entering a dead land, eerie and terrifying.

Peter became more and more uneasy as he walked, and wanted to lead the team to evacuate from this weird place, but the sense of responsibility deep in his heart told him that he had to figure out what was going on here.

Because it is too close to the construction site of the new city, if there is any threat here, if there is any action, the more than 2 construction workers on the entire construction site will suffer a devastating blow!

As soldiers, they must have the awareness to detect crises in advance and kill them in the cradle, even if they pay their own lives for it!

The team marched for another half an hour, and the traces suddenly disappeared. Peter immediately realized that the worm might be nearby, and this was probably its lair.

"Ten people in a group, search separately, don't spread too far, and be vigilant." Peter lowered his voice and instructed several officers around him.

A few people understood, and a few gestures were quickly typed out, and the team of nearly a hundred people spread out like plum blossoms.

After a while, a group made a discovery.

A soldier came to Peter and said, "Captain, I think you should come here to have a look."

The soldiers brought Peter to a vast cliff. At the bottom of the cliff, there was a huge "tiankeng", estimated by naked eyes to be more than 2000 meters in diameter.

It is not uncommon to find a "tiankeng" in the Warcraft Mountains, but what is strange is that there is a layer of gray mist lingering in this big pit.

Peter looked down from the edge of the "tiankeng", his vision was completely blocked by this layer of turbulent gray fog, and he couldn't see what was below, nor how deep it was.

He picked up a big stone at his feet and threw it down. He watched the stone fall rapidly and crashed into the gray mist, but Peter never heard the sound of the stone hitting.

"What the hell is this?" Peter frowned into the word "Chuan". He has shuttled back and forth in this monster forest many times, and he has never encountered such a strange situation today.

Whether it's the pitch-black land under his feet, the dark green twisted plants around him, or the "tiankeng" in front of him, it all makes him very uneasy.

"The worm has appeared, don't let it run away!" Just as he was meditating, a loud voice came from a distance.

He looked back, and through the layers of trees, he really saw the scarred worm. Soldiers from several nearby groups had already surrounded it. Soldiers, on the other hand, engaged in close combat with valor.

"Let's go, avenge Vic!" Peter's heart was full of killing intent, and he didn't care about this weird "tiankeng", and hurriedly led people to surround it.

Although the worm's scale armor was comparable to fine steel, it had almost no defense against the rune saber, and soon fell to the ground under the siege of the crowd.

The battle lasted for more than a quarter of an hour, and the reloading brigade was not feeling well, because more than a dozen unlucky ones were injured because of the worm's dying counterattack.

For the two most serious cases, both the sternum and ribs were broken, and the thick breastplate was deeply sunken. Although he took the healing potion in time, whether he could survive or not depended on God's will.

"Damn it, the fourth-level monsters are really powerful. If they were replaced by those third-level monsters before, we would have died so many times in such a siege." Blood.

Peter also suffered a little injury, he shook his head and said: "This beast should be close to level five, if it wasn't for the powerful equipment, we wouldn't be able to beat it.

How many weapons are left? "

The lieutenant sat down beside him, spat bloody saliva and said, "We only have two heavy rune arrows left on our bodies, but there are still dozens of light arrows from the Liannu. Crystal bombs have never had a chance to be used. Five They are all there."

"The price is really not small. Hurry up and clean up the battlefield. If it is not for the support of the territory, we are doing a loss-making business." Peter said with emotion.

As far as the weapons and equipment they consumed back and forth, they had already exceeded the value of this fourth-level monster. If they were a mercenary group, they would go bankrupt sooner or later.

The soldiers of the Heavy Armor Brigade were professional in cleaning the battlefield. They saw a rune saber flying nimbly in their hands, and quickly took out the beast core. The rest of them also peeled off the relatively complete scales.

The defensive power of these scales is obvious to all, not inferior to the normal version of the plate armor, and even surpassed, it is quite a good choice to take it back to make armor or sell it.

They also took some blood and took it away. This thing is a good material for making alchemy potions, and it can also be sold for a good price.

While they were doing autopsy in full swing, they didn't know that danger was approaching quietly...

In the "tiankeng", the gray mist surged like sea waves, and several huge creatures emerged from it. They climbed up the extremely steep cliffs silently, and the vertical cliffs were like walking shoes for them. Flat ground, fast.

Two heavily armed soldiers were guarding nearby. They chatted about the strange-shaped plants around them one after another, without realizing at all... disaster is coming!
"puff"

Before they could even scream, the two soldiers became two standing headless corpses, warm blood gushing like a fountain.

The muffled sound of the head landing alarmed the team leader who was nearby. He immediately found the two teammates who had died in battle. The team leader immediately shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy..."

Before he finished speaking, a huge monster appeared in front of him and flicked its tail fiercely. The team leader suddenly felt as if he had been hit by a galloping horse. Rolled a few times like a ground gourd, life or death unknown.

This turn of events stunned everyone present, but elites are elites. The moment they discovered the enemy's situation, they dropped everything and rushed to Peter's side, forming a tight army formation.

At this time, they have the energy to observe what the enemy they are facing.

They were three strange monsters, they were one foot high, and looked like a huge beetle as a whole, with a pair of huge serrated pincers, one of which was covered with minced meat and blood.

Their backs are not translucent elytra like beetles, but membranous wings similar to dragonflies. There are three pairs in full, but the proportions are extremely uncoordinated. Only half of its back is long, which is very funny.

And their lower limbs are even more peculiar, not like a beetle, but like a snail, moving forward by wriggling.

At the end is a snake-like tail, wagging restlessly.

"This... what the hell is this?" The captain's face was ugly. No matter how you look at it, this thing feels weird. It's like a hodgepodge of many kinds of monsters, and it doesn't fit the characteristics of any kind of monster.

"They crawled out of that big pit, md, I think there is something wrong here." Peter's face was almost blackened, and the enemy killed his three brothers as soon as he showed up!

"They're coming!"

The roar focused everyone's attention, and the three behemoths were squirming towards them quickly, and the trees blocking them were completely vulnerable to the huge pincers.

Looking at the fallen trees one after another, everyone gasped. If they were caught, they would have to be cut in half on the spot!
"Don't let them get close, the Thousand Machine Crossbow is ready—"

Peter shouted loudly, and all the soldiers with long-range attack methods started shooting one after another. The Thousand Machine Crossbow only had two arrows, but the effect was very good. It directly pierced a monster and exploded into pieces, hating the northwest.

Peter was taken aback by this scene, was he killed so easily?Could it be that this thing is a paper tiger, which is actually not resistant at all?
But soon he found that he was too happy too early. The heavy arrows fired by the thousand-machine crossbow were very effective against them, but the penetrating light arrows of the continuous crossbow were not ideal. Carapace, but failed to cause actual damage.

"No, once we let them get close to the army formation, we will definitely suffer heavy losses, and we must use the [Crystal Bomb]."

Peter's face was ugly, and he only had two heavy arrows. If he didn't use the [Crystal Bomb], they might suffer a lot.

Thinking of this, he immediately stopped hesitating, took down an iron can with a long handle from his waist, twisted it slightly, and pressed the handle again, a five-piece [Crystal Bomb] was activated.

Peter threw it out with all his strength. After throwing, he didn't look at the result, and threw two more in a row.

"bang bang bang"

There were three loud bangs in a row, and the bright light from the explosion made them dare not look directly at them, and the shock wave that swept over them made them feel extremely uncomfortable, feeling that their internal organs were shaking.

Fortunately, the distance is far enough. If it is about ten meters closer, the soldiers in the front row will be knocked down by the shock wave.

The light and smoke from the explosion dissipated, and the place where the monster was originally was suddenly empty, leaving only a small pile of minced meat.

"Great, they were all blown into a pile of rotten meat!" The soldiers were immediately excited. Since they entered the mountain, this was the first time they used the [Crystal Bomb], and its power really lived up to its reputation.

And the next moment, their smiles froze on their faces, because on the edge of the "tiankeng", huge pliers popped out one after another, and there were no less than ten of them after a rough count.

Peter's expression changed drastically, and he roared angrily, "Retreat, immediately retreat the same way!"

Everyone woke up suddenly, and immediately started to retreat in an orderly manner with the materials cut from the wounded and worms.

Their speed is very fast, but those strange monsters are not slow either. The lower limbs of this group are no longer like snails, but six pairs of stubby legs, and their movement speed is much faster.

After running wildly for half an hour, seeing that they hadn't shaken off yet, Peter immediately took out the two remaining [Crystal Bombs] and threw them out to slow down their speed.

The explosion instantly shredded three monsters, and the speed of the remaining ones was indeed blocked, and they were finally thrown off by Peter and the others.

After losing their target, several monsters stood in place, motionless. After a while, as if they had received some instructions, they returned to the edge of the "tiankeng" and jumped down.

The moment they came into contact with the gray mist, the membranous wings on their backs began to flap at a high speed, supporting their huge bodies and falling slowly... (End of this chapter)
