The super lord of the island

Chapter 68 068. Hunting Beasts in the Rain [Part [-]]

patter...

patter...

Time has entered July, and the climate is getting hotter.

On the dark island, it was raining continuously, and affected by the high temperature, the dense forest was transpiring like fog, and every breath seemed to be soaked in water, and the humidity was extraordinarily heavy.

Even the most active birds on weekdays can only stay in their nests peacefully at this time, leaving the forest a little quiet.

Tick ​​tick
Rainwater fell down the brim of the hat and broke on the shoulder armor, leaving a few meandering water marks.

On the treetop above the sentinel soldiers, there was a brown owl with a few streaks of white in the middle, crouching under the broad leaves to shelter from the rain, looking around with agile eyes, as if observing the surrounding situation.

patter.
Two hours passed, and the rain did not decrease but increased.

Not long after, a figure slowly walked out of the rain curtain and came under the tree to handover positions with the soldiers.

"Captain Mai Ze, go back to the base and have a bowl of ginger soup, I'll keep an eye on it instead."

"Okay, the surrounding vision is very poor, but the lord's magic pet will help to keep an eye on it. If there is any abnormality in the owl, it will immediately whistle to warn."

"Yes."

After instructing the team members, Mai Ze turned and left.

The temporary stronghold not far away is a temporary shabby wooden house, which provides soldiers with shelter from the rain to rest, and the purpose of guarding is to ensure the personal safety of the slave laborers from attacks by monsters or wild beasts.

When Mai Ze returned to the wooden house, he found that Lord Jialan, who usually lives reclusively, was also here, so he quickly took off his rain hat and bowed to the side.

"Sit down and have a rest, Mai Ze, don't need to stand."

".Yes."

Mai Ze hesitated for a while, found a corner seat and sat down cautiously. After listening to the conversation between the leader and the adults, he realized that the master Jialan had also just arrived for a while.

"My lord, my subordinates have set up three fixed sentries and five teams of mobile sentries around. If something abnormal happens, they will report back to the base as soon as possible."

Karl looked at Mai Ze, and continued to ask: "Did there be any unusual movements on your side before the handover?"

"There is no leader, it is very quiet, and there is no other sound except the sound of rain." Mai Ze replied.

"Ok, I know."

Jialan closed her eyes, tapped the handrail rhythmically with her fingers, and said, "The magic sentinel I set up outside the village told me that there is a hyenadon wandering here, it should be the one you saw earlier.

Attracted by the movement of the slaves building wooden houses, it bypassed the fences on the west and north sides and entered the hinterland of Aurora Village. If nothing else happened, the animal had already set its sights on a certain patrol team. "

"Oops!"

Karl's face changed suddenly. Except for him, the corps were all ordinary people. Needless to say, the consequences of being targeted by the hyenadon.

"My lord! I need to whistle immediately to call everyone back to the stronghold!"

Just as Carl made some moves, Jialan's tone was calm.

"Don't worry Carl, the Morning Light Corps is my only team. I cherish every soldier's life more than you do. Blowing the assembly whistle can certainly remind them, but it is easier to stimulate the hyenadons hiding in the dark and burst into flames." Difficulty."

Jialan looked calm, and after admonishing Karl not to act rashly, he slowly closed his eyes, as if wandering into the sky, but there was a faint wave of magic power, letting Karl know that the lord was casting magic and sharing the vision with the spirit sentinel.

In order to find the trace of the hyenadon, Jialan activated all the three sentinels he had refined and released them. After so many days of nourishment with magic power, they are no longer tiny spirits that can be destroyed by the wind.

"Damn beast, where are you hiding..."

The magic power links the spirit body to share the vision, and Jialan keeps switching back and forth among the three sentries until a patrol team passes under the tree and finds a clue.

"Found it, it's McQueen's team, Carl!"

"Yes!"

Without saying a word, Knight Karl got up and dived into the rain, and Jialan, who had lost his vision, put on a rattan coat, followed Karl, and hurried to the depths of the woods.

……

……

溚溚溚…

McQueen led two recruits walking in the woodland with one deep foot and one shallow foot.

Every time he walked a certain distance, McQueen would mark the tree trunk with a dagger to avoid getting lost in the heavy rain.

"Captain Kun, will it work if we walk around like this?"

On such a rainy day, patrolling with almost completely blocked vision, the recruits were very puzzled and wanted to get an answer from the captain.

"Of course it works." McQueen replied step by step, unhurriedly, "Before the fence is built, we are the first line of defense in Aurora Village. If we encounter ordinary wild animals, we can deal with them on the spot or drive them away." ; If you encounter a powerful monster, you can blow the whistle to warn other companions that there is a monster breaking in."

"Understood, then we wait for the opportunity to leave and wait for the leader to deal with it, right?"

"Wrong, it is necessary to hold back the monsters and wait for support." McQueen turned and stared at the recruits, "Running is a choice only made by the weak without faith."

patter...

Drenched even with a raincoat and hat after a day of rain, McQueen walked to the edge of the sand and carved a final scratch in the tree.

"Okay, the inspection of this route is over, let's go back the same way, I hope that kid Mai Ze will save us some ginger soup."

The two recruits smiled, and couldn't help but relax at the thought of taking a rest for a while, and complimented:
"The Kun team is about to advance to the extraordinary. Apart from Captain Karl, you are the second extraordinary in the corps. Naturally, you cannot be compared with others."

In the Corps, there are four servants who were born together at the beginning, Mai Ze/McQueen/Mai Shi/Wheat Bran, all of them have extraordinary talents, and they learned to master Dou Qi under Carl's teaching, among them, McQueen's progress speed The fastest, inherently said.

"Mai Ze is young and vigorous, and he will achieve more than me in the future, but in the final analysis, whether it is extraordinary or ordinary soldiers, they are all subjects under the lord's command, so just do things with peace of mind."

After McQueen spoke, he glanced at the beach covered by the rain. There was nothing there, so he turned around and went back the same way. After walking a few steps, a gray shadow flashed in front of him. The speed made McGonagall startle. In a cold sweat, he immediately reached out to stop the two of them, and shouted.

"There is something nearby, don't move around!"

After stabilizing the two recruits, McQueen slowly drew his bow and set his arrows to search for the target.

Suddenly there was an exclamation from behind.

"It's on a tree!"

"Damn it! It's too fast! Blow the whistle!"

Seeing that the thing was a strange and vicious beast, a trembling recruit took out a wooden whistle from his pocket, ready to blow the warning.

"Oops! Get out of here!!"

Before McQueen reminded him, the hurricane had arrived, and the pressure brought by his huge body made his hands and feet weak. Another recruit even forgot to take the long sword equipped at his waist, turned around and fled.

Originally, the target of the hyenadon was the soldier holding the wooden whistle. It rationally felt that it wanted to stop the little thing from making a sound, but the recruit who turned around and ran away touched the predatory instinct of the hyenadon. The recruit who was on the spot grabbed the fleeing soldier by the back of his neck, dragged him into the rain and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
