The three failed siege operations were not completely meaningless to these elf guards, at least they still found some tricks to search and lure the Thunder Eagle.

That is to borrow a magician.

After carefully studying the places that the mad Thunder Eagle attacked and guessing the possible habitat, we marked out a range of its activities, and the search work will be carried out by the elf guards using magic to create bird-shaped imitation creatures The devil will bear it.Although the familiar made by the elves cannot act autonomously like the beast soul I summoned, it has the advantage of being able to share the senses with its master. The caster can use the familiar's eyes to search for the location of the Thunder Sculpture—this is actually It's not difficult, because where the Thunder Sculpture hovers, cumulonimbus clouds will often unnaturally condense at low altitudes. The Thunder Sculpture is used to hovering close to the clouds, using gray-black wings to integrate itself with the clouds.The familiar can also disguise itself as prey to confuse the Thunder Eagle and attract it to fly to the place where we ambush.Laser carvings rely purely on vision to judge prey in the distance, and they are ferocious and not picky, so they are easy to take the bait.

Seeing a bird-shaped familiar made with magic power being released, I looked at Miria, the captain of the guard, and her two assistants who were sitting around the fire with me in turn, and said, "Then I will Once confirmed, we will be divided into four groups according to the original plan after the start, and ambush at a distance."

In addition to a backup group, the captain of the guard and her two deputies will each lead a group of five, and then the five people from our academy will form a group of their own.Not only should the groups be separated, but the people in the group should not be too close together when they are in place. This is to cut off the possibility of one person being exposed and causing all the people to be exposed. Moreover, too concentrated people in one place will also cause danger. There is a risk of being knocked out by a powerful lightning strike.

The communication between the groups will be completed by the magic of spiritual communication, so each group will be equipped with a mage, and only the team led by the head of the guard will be in charge of the spell communication.

When I think of this, I feel uneasy... The communication between our group and other groups is in charge of Feilan, and I couldn't help but glanced at the guy who was idly leaning against a tree not far away.

But don't drop the chain...

"The hunting you participated in in the past also relied on magic to communicate? Orcs also have this kind of magic?" the captain of the guard suddenly asked with great interest.

"Uh no, we roar with our natural loud voices. The Thunder Eagle is not sensitive to the sound of the ground. It flies close to thunderstorm clouds for a long time, and only uses vision to search for prey. Of course, this means that its The eyesight is excellent. So as I said before, you must lie down on the ground and don’t move before attacking. The thunder is so scary that you can’t move or stand up, otherwise it will be recognized as the prey immediately. The thunder eagle , According to what you said, it is a bit of a sign of madness, but no matter what, it should follow its own instinct when it attacks."

The place we chose to ambush was a large expanse of scorched earth, where the Thunder Eagle had ravaged before. At that time, the lightning it called sparked a fire here, and the guards finally managed to control the fire.This is the place that was recently attacked by the Thunder Eagle, and it is also located in the center of its range of activities that we have marked out. The possibility of finding its whereabouts nearby is relatively high.

Although the open land is not suitable for us on the ground to find a shelter to hide ourselves, it is also convenient for us to pay attention to the movements of the sky.Moreover, there is a very important point in the hunting of Thunder Eagle, that is, it will not eat corpses, but only attack living things.Its hunting habits startle its prey with low-altitude thunderstorms, and then chase the running prey.On the contrary, if we don't stand up and keep lying on the ground, we don't have to worry about being locked by the laser carving. The safest way to encounter the laser carving in the wild of beasts is to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.

"Then the next step is the key." Sitting cross-legged, I tapped the ground with my fingers, "After attracting the Lightning Sculpture as planned, I will change the bait. I will use the beast soul summoning spell to make a warg out in advance to lure it down , in order to allow arrows and magic to hurt it, you have to wait for my password before attacking, and you must wait for me to disperse the arc barrier on its feathers before you can do it. Thunder sculptures are very vigilant creatures, and rushing to startle them will not only make them Just fly to the sky again and never come down, and at the same time, we will expose ourselves, it will keep calling thunder and lightning to attack us, at that time, we will really step on shit, so we must wait for the most suitable time Win or lose."

"Then the key to the battle lies with Your Excellency, and we have never been able to deal with the electric arc wrapped around it." The captain of the guard nodded at me, "I never thought that the orc's spell could manipulate the elements that have already been dominated... In this way, wouldn't your mages be able to easily counter mages of other races?"

In the morning, when I was explaining the battle, I showed the results of my practice for the past few days to all members of the guard team. I asked an elf mage to summon an arc of lightning like a thunder sculpture to form a barrier, and then I did the same as during practice. Using elemental induction to dispel the barrier, they were amazed for a while by the skill that the elf's magic system could not do, and the captain of the guard seemed to be very impressed by that.

"How can it be so easy to use? Although the method of communicating and guiding the elements can achieve this miraculous effect, it also requires a longer casting time to prepare. If you can't hold the opponent first in actual combat, you won't even be able to use spells. A one-on-one duel will be at a disadvantage." I shook my head with a wry smile, and read the knowledge Roland taught me from the script.

"So that's how it is...huh?" She nodded, and then suddenly frowned for no reason.

"What's wrong?" I asked subconsciously.

She didn't answer me right away, but turned to look at an elf mage standing in the distance, who was staring at her.The moment they met their gazes, the mage nodded solemnly, as if she had just reported something to the captain of the guard with a spiritual spell.

The captain of the guard turned his head back with a solemn expression: "Melia seems to have found the target! A strange thunderstorm cloud was found in the west."

"It's probably there, lead it over as planned." I got up immediately, "Hurry up and get in place."

The captain of the guard also stood up, turned to the other team members who were making preparations, and shouted loudly: "When the target is found, everyone is in position. Repeat, when the target is found, everyone is in position!"

All the guards moved, put out the fire, picked up their equipment and walked towards their predetermined positions.

"In the name of the Lord God..." The captain stood up and drew his sword, and stood in front of him. Miriah and the two lieutenants followed suit, as if they were performing some kind of elven ritual.

"I wish you all the best." The captain of the guard prayed solemnly.

I looked at them, turned around and walked towards my position.

I took off the token engraved with the beast soul summoning totem on my waist, and felt familiar with the totem.More than ten seconds passed, and under the control of my consciousness, a blood mist emerged beside me, turning into a warg and following me on foot.

The hunt has begun.

If you don't listen to the words of the orcs, you will suffer in front of your eyes (4)

Alright, now everyone is in their places.

Everyone is on the alert.

Strictly speaking, this "preparation" is like this: everyone is like a toad crawling on the scorched land, enduring the pungent scorching smell from the fire-burned soil and grass ash and charcoal.

I also lay on the ground, and the warg summoned by the beast soul lay beside me.

Although... this posture feels a bit timid, but it is the safest and most effective hunting method after all. Lying on the ground can not only avoid the prey recognition of the laser eagle, but also effectively reduce the probability of being struck by lightning.Bravery only needs to be reserved for the official attack. Even ferocious beasts know how to lower their bodies in the grass and approach the prey from behind. Those who always use the front of the face to stiffen the horns and hooves of the prey will not live long. Master.

I heard that when these elves fought against the Lightning Sculptures before, their heads were really not ordinary. They not only ran all over the ground, thinking that this would disturb the Lightning Sculptures' attention, but also always liked to jump on trees to organize shooting.Little did he know that the Thunder Eagle was already very good at locking targets in a herd of running beasts, but running around would greatly arouse its attack instinct, and the behavior of jumping on a tree would only double the risk of being struck by lightning .

That's right, ambush is the essence of hunting Thunder Eagles. It can not only win the most suitable time to attack, but also effectively control the casualty rate of this dangerous hunting.There is a great advantage of choosing this burnt scorched earth as an ambush site, that is, it can effectively avoid encountering nearby grass or trees being ignited by lightning strikes when you must ambush, and watch the fire blaze towards you. The embarrassing situation that I spread over myself is neither moving nor moving.

However, obviously, not everyone can appreciate the subtleties of this tactic.

"I hate it, you still have to lie on your stomach in such a dirty place... what do you think... it stinks!"

...For example, a certain lady mage with a cleanliness freak.

This stream of whining and whining has never stopped since I got down on the ground.

"I said that, at least you put a cloth under your body, it won't stain your clothes, and you will get used to the burnt smell on the ground after a while... so bear with it." I turned my head towards Feilan, who was lying a few steps away, persuaded her.

Considering that she still seems to be angry now, I try to use a cautious and polite tone.

But it was also obvious that the eldest lady didn't appreciate it.

"Shut up! I'm not talking to you anymore!" She gave me a blank look as if she was angry, "Stop talking to me casually!"

Hey, I said why is this girl so difficult to deal with?

I lay on the ground and sighed helplessly.

I haven't had a chance to apologize to her since last night.

The reason is simple, that is, as soon as she saw me, she ran away angrily, or she simply erected a wall like this to refuse any communication.

At this time, I felt that the corner of my clothes was being torn twice. I turned my head and took a closer look. It was Angelika who had put on a guard uniform, and somehow this girl came over.

"What are you doing?" I looked at her in bewilderment.

"That...I..."

Seeing that she was eager and hesitant to speak, as if she had something important to say, I pricked up my ears seriously.

I waited patiently, and then I heard her whisper softly: "I kind of want to... go to the bathroom... is that okay?"

"Hold on! Go back!" I replied coldly.

The action has already begun, so how can there be time for such miscellaneous things?If Lei Diao rushed over when he was relieved, he might not even have time to lift his pants.

"Inhumanity..." She pouted unhappily, stood up and crawled back to her seat.

What's all this... What's the matter with this feeling of loss of strength that doesn't feel the tension that dangerous hunting should have at all?

I couldn't help covering my eyes.

Well, let's think in a better direction, at least these guys are still following my instructions.

Hunting is very dependent on experience. I have also experienced hunting many times with my companions in the past. Those who are willing to follow the instructions of old hunters can at least guarantee that they are not short of arms even if they are not useful. Legs, the ones who suffer are always those fools who usually don't want to study hard and like to make waves on the spot.

At this time, I heard Feilan vaguely say something: "...closer."

"What did you just say?" I subconsciously asked over there.

"I said that the mage over there said that he had confirmed the existence of the target, successfully lured the target, and was approaching. Do you understand that?" She raised her voice slightly and replied angrily.

"Oh……"

Now I really have nothing to do with her, so no one can take care of her?

?As if confirming the call in my heart, Mi Ruiya, who was lying a few steps to Feilan's left, spoke in a calm voice: "Student Feilan, message transmission is very important in team battles. Only you can do it here." Contacting people in other groups is a heavy responsibility, please take it seriously."

"I see." Feilan's voice still had a hint of impatience, but at least her arrogance had subsided a little. After a while, she yelled again, "They said the distance is only about three kilometers!"

I looked up to the west, and I could already faintly see black cloud lines extending from the junction of the tree crowns and the sky in the distance.

At the same time, my spirit also vaguely felt the restless natural elements rushing along the sky like a herd of rioting beasts—that was the thunder and lightning summoned by the Thunder Sculpture, among the thunderstorm clouds that were constantly formed along the path of the Thunder Sculpture. Rolling, with the same violence and ferocity of the master who rode it.

I have only practiced for five days before the battle, and it is still a bit difficult for me to control this frantic thunderstorm. It would be a different matter if I can allow a few days, but right now, all I can do is to do enough Under the premise of preparing for the casting of the spell, when the Thunder Eagle flew down, he seized the opportunity to expel the arc barrier on its feathers.

But that's enough, right now we have enough numbers and firepower, as long as we don't make some low-level mistakes, nothing will go wrong.

Lei Diao's progress is very fast, two or three kilometers is the blink of an eye.

Soon we will be able to hear the rolling thunder, as if the wild drums of war are coming from the sky, beating everyone's eardrums and vibrating in the brain.

It's finally here.

Putting aside this inexplicable situation with more than 20 inexperienced female elves, now I am indeed hunting a real giant beast.

Hearing the thunder, recalling the past when hunting giant beasts with his comrades, the desire to fight from the instinct of the hunting race began to stir.

That's right, I agreed to come here in the first place just to taste this kind of blood-boiling hunting again.

A red silhouette rushed out from the sky, and a bird in the shape of a vulture pierced the sky like a sharp arrow—it was used to search and lure the elves' familiars of the Lightning Sculpture. The special magic power has dyed it this eye-catching color.

Behind it, gloomy black clouds pressed down from the western sky, like an overwhelming army, the flashing lightning within them was their torches, and the thunder that rolled over after a few seconds was their horns.

In the end, everyone heard it, and from the thundercloud came the sharp and long whistle that sounded like a thousand flutes playing in unison.

The roar of the thunder carving.

If you don't listen to the words of the orcs, you will suffer in front of your eyes (5)

The thunderclouds gradually eroded the sky above our heads, and the sky suddenly became gloomy. Finally, the entire sky was covered with black clouds, as dark as night fell.

It's almost time.

I looked to the side, and with a thought, the wolf beast soul lying beside me stood up straight.

It raised its head and let out a long and loud howl towards the sky, which everyone present could hear clearly.This is the signal to alert the search group to exchange bait.

The elven sorcerer controlling the familiar obviously received the signal and withdrew the spell. The familiar bird in the sky that lured the Lightning Sculpture here disappeared out of thin air, and the Lightning Sculpture lost its target all of a sudden.

At the same time, the warg ran forward, and I would control it to run around a place far away from everyone present but where it could be fired by arrows and magic. The Thunder Sculpture that had just lost its target was easily attracted by it .Although according to the group of elves, this Thunder Eagle's attack pattern is quite abnormal, and it does not attack villages and forest areas for predation, but this does not mean that it does not need to prey, but it needs to maintain this kind of activity. Feed more frequently, and the ability of the elf familiar disguised as a bird to lure it over is enough proof of this.

On the Field of Giant Beasts, the wild warg is one of the most frequently appearing species in Lei Diao's recipes. The beast soul in the shape of a warg will lure it to float towards the ground.

It's hungry now, and this is our chance.

Now the burden is on me. I observe the beast souls in the distance and the dark thunderstorm clouds back and forth. While identifying the shadow of the thunder eagle with my naked eyes, I am also trying to sense the thunder and lightning with my mind, trying to get out of the rushing thunderstorm. The part of the arc that is entangled with its body - this is not easy. For example, it is like pulling out a specific thread in a mess. This requires a lot of concentration, and you may miss it if you are not careful. .

I have practiced this process countless times in the academy in the past few days, but when I arrived at the scene, I found that it is not easy to do this in actual combat.

The Thunder Sculpture, which found its prey, began to stir the thunderclouds with its own power, and the sound of thunderstorms in the low sky sounded more frequently, as if a group of frightened bulls were stomping on your head, causing a splitting headache.The successive violent sound waves almost tore the eardrums, and the vibration poured into the body from both ears, and went straight to the heart, making people palpitate involuntarily. In the gap between the thunder, I heard the screams of the female elves.

Especially Feilan, who was not far away, kept holding her head and screaming as if she was going to die. She seemed to be very afraid of thunder.

But it's not their fault, to be honest, I really want to shout a few times now.

It is difficult to understand this kind of fear unless you are lying under the thunderstorm yourself. Fear of such a loud noise is the instinctive reaction of most land creatures, and the Thunder Sculpture is accustomed to using this method to scare its prey.

That's right, the interference of this thunderstorm is the most difficult. If you want to hunt the thunder eagle, you must concentrate in this situation where your ears are so shocked that you are about to bleed... The same is true for other people, they have to overcome Under such circumstances, the urge to get up and run away, he covered his ears tightly and honestly pretended to be his own corpse.

I really admire those experienced old shamans, how can they concentrate in such a situation where their heads are blank!
