The twenty-seventh chapter desert jumping lizard's raid (2)

"Die, all dead!"

The panicked scout came back on his horse and shouted.

In order to resist the attack of the desert jumping lizard, the caravan was on high alert. In the wooden walls of the temporary camp, a large cart and camel formed two circular defense lines, including long bows, hard crossbows, giant swords and staffs, but from last night to early morning, there was no movement at all.

At midnight, the jumping lizards were still not attacking, so the caravan sent scouts to search and found that there was no trace of the jumping lizards within several miles.

However, it has been this time, why haven’t we seen the port patrol team coming to pick up?

The scout was brave enough to move towards the port, but after walking for less than forty minutes, he saw a tragic scene: large patches of blood and broken corpses!

The desert jumping lizard did not attack the heavily guarded caravan, but ambushed the teams that came out of the port and responded. All the teams that were raided were destroyed.

After learning the news, the caravan suddenly became panicked. It was less than a day away from the port, but now the jumping lizard was lying in ambush where he was preparing to launch an attack. The caravan was in a marching defense ability. Since it could eliminate the port patrol team, it was really easy to kill a caravan.

It was less than a day's journey, but it seemed out of reach.

In a panic, Dak was very calm. He volunteered to go to the investigation again, so he took Maduk and the scout named Jihad just now and rode his horse toward the location where the patrol team was attacked.

Maduk is both dead: "Master, the horse is not as fast as a jumping lizard. If we meet, we will die."

Dark said: "No, since they are smart enough to set up ambush and attack reinforcements, the next target must be the caravan itself. We are not enough to get between them. In addition, they will think we are bait. Gihad, besides the corpse, have you found anything unusual nearby?"

Jihad replied uneasyly: "Master Hassan, I'm sorry, my eyes were covered in blood at that time, and I was so scared, just..."

Dark frowned: "Scan the eye and ran back? How did you become a scout?"

"Uh, because you run fast."

Dark was speechless.

Soon, when they arrived at the attack site, Dark jumped off his horse and walked towards the killing field, and the other two had to follow.

Dark examined the broken bodies on the ground.

The patrol team resisted quite fiercely, but failed. Judging from the messy footprints, footprints, and the position of the dead bodies, they were disrupted from the beginning.

When the team marched to the narrow part between the two sand dunes, it turned into a single-line long dragon. Then, the jumping lilies on the back of the sides of the sand dunes climbed up to the top of the hill and launched a raid from a high point.

The first wave of killing was the magic profession, then the archers, and finally the warriors surrounded by divisions.

Dark sighed helplessly.

However, a question came to my mind, why are there only human corpses?

The magic profession was protected in the middle of the team. The first wave of raids succeeded, and the jumping lizard that rushed into the formation would inevitably be subjected to a fierce fire-focused attack. There were embers left by the explosion of fire spells on the ground. Why didn't there be a jumping lizard's body?

"Maduk, do you eat the same kind of jumping lizard?"

"No, they don't have such a habit."

"Do they bury their kind?"

"Master, are you still in the mood to joke at this time?"

"Then...what is this!"

Dake pulled it out of the sand with a sudden pull and pulled out a wreck of jumping lizard!

Maduk and Jihad screamed at the same time.

The corpse of the jumping lizard was only half a long neck, the head had been blown to pieces, the blood had already dried up, and several slimes with mottled and rough skin were crawling on it to suck. Suddenly, they saw the sunlight and hurriedly crawled under the sand again.

In addition to being attacked by fatal spells, it was also slashed by a giant sword with both hands, and its cervical spine was flattened into two sections; there were six pairs of round holes symmetrical on both sides of the neck, which were penetrating injuries left by the crossbow.

Jihad breathed lightly: "It turns out that humans are not without results."

"This is not the key. Jihad, Maduk, you guys look around and see if there are any other bodies."

The two responded and scattered. After a while, they found more than a dozen buried jumping lizards.

Maduk said: "Master, you are so smart. Judging from the claws around you, these dead jumping lizards were simply buried by their companions."

Jihad said: "Does these guys have wisdom? Holy Lord, this is so terrible!"

Dark said: "I found a few wrecks just now. Look, this was pulled from the wreck."

Marduk complained at first sight: "My master, why are you so interested in these smelly scales?"

Dake ignored him and took out the scale from his pocket last night: "Call this one first, the one just now is number one, you can compare it."

Jihad took it and looked at it for a while and said, "No. 2 is tough and No. 1 is hard. Are there two types of jumping lizards?"

"Wrong, young man," said Maduk. "Look, the one side of No. 1 is not inferior to No. 2 when it is close to the skin, but the other side is harder than No. 2. The key is that there is an extra layer of stone hard shell on the surface."

"Stone hard shell? Oh, Holy Lord, there is really a layer of stone protective shell! Petrified skin? Isn't this the skill of a mage?"

"The jumping lizard in a tortoise shell! It's both offensive and defense, otherwise the patrol team wouldn't be destroyed. Right, Master?"

Dak took two scales from Jihad and said, "All the killing jumping lizards are attacked by the belly. The back is basically intact, which means that their petrified skin is mainly concentrated on the back. The frontal defense is still relatively fragile. But they can use skills, can raid ambush, and have first-class combat ability. This is a strong enemy. Jihad, hurry up and go to the port to report the news, Maduk, and go back to the caravan with me."

Halfway through the way, Marduk suddenly said, "Master, it's a chance!"

“What opportunity?”

"No one is staring at us now. There is a Mensaro crypt entrance nearby. It takes only two or three hours to pass by. Let's go!"

Dak did not move, and Maduk turned the horse head back: "Master, what are you waiting for? You don't really want to go back and report the caravan, are you? Maybe they are surrounded now, and going back will be a death sentence!"

"Old guy, how many years have you dug?"

"About forty-five years, I can't find a miner who is older than me."

"Do you still want to dig?"

The old guy suddenly fell silent. After a while, he replied in a low voice: "No, Master."

"I was also a mediocre guy who achieved nothing, until I met someone later."

"He must be an angel sent by the Holy Lord."

"Wrong, I didn't hear any inspiration, I just wanted to survive. So, I had to go on. Now, you can choose to roll back into the mine with your tail and be a mole, or follow me."

The old guy swallowed hard: "Not only do I want to survive, but also be a rich man! I want to lie on the hospital bed and eat bunches of grapes!"

"No problem, but before that, you have to tell me everything you know about the desert jumping lizard!"
