Chapter 36 Outpost

Night goes and day comes, the sun rises and sets, and it's dusk again.

The five people who ambushed and blocked Zhou Ning got together again with dark faces.

"Are you sure that kid will pass by here?"

"Must, come from the black pine forest obliquely, follow the official road, and complete the last journey."

"What if he doesn't take this part of the official path?"

"There's no shortcut here. If you don't follow the official path, are you sick?"

"Aren't you still trapped in the black pine forest?"

"Perhaps last night and after the night, you were on your way normally, and you came in front of us early?"

"It's absolutely impossible. Although the worm is slow, it doesn't need to go around the forest. It walks roughly in a straight line."

"Then what if the opponent runs with all his strength?"

"Okay, there's no need to argue!" The one who had just received the call from Fei Ya said to the other four with a sullen face: "A message came from the forest camp. That guy entered the camp to report before a stick of incense."

"How did his grandma do it?"

"It should have been out of the military camp in Shuolong County, and went straight to the forest camp, without taking any official roads, and went directly over the mountains and ridges."

"What the hell! This is a shortcut..."

"That guy might be an evil hunter!"

"Impossible? Ye Buqun is not the eldest son, and his status in the family is just that. Otherwise, why would he come to the Qilin Army to practice? Where does he have the face to ask Shouxie to protect him secretly?"

"Don't forget who his teacher is."...

Talent is like a good birth, and Shuxie is a representative of all good things becoming good.

Talent, fortune, land, and self-effort are all indispensable in order to create excellence.

They are like stars bred in the dark universe, as if they were born for glory.

Of course Zhou Ning is not a kind of Shouxie. Compared to the level of cheating, Shouxie can only be regarded as a younger brother in front of him.

He made a special trip to arrive at his destination at sunset in order to fulfill this lie.

The night watchman in the Lin camp has B[-], and Zhou Ning reported that he was not assigned a task that day, in order to be able to go out to the battle with full energy the next day.

Qilin Army, the fourth battalion of Fenglin Huoshan, each battalion is rated at [-] soldiers, but because the consumption of the second battalion of Fenglin and Lin has been very high, the second battalion of Huo and Shan has never been full, more like a training camp, always The person being transferred.

This time, it was almost full force, with 500 people out.

Zhou Ning was still in the nightmare car, assisted by three sergeants, two drivers, and one attendant.

The team marched in the direction of Yixianxia, ​​traveled more than 20 miles, and was attacked by arrow rain again.

"Arrow rain attacks have become a repertoire? It's almost like being targeted by guerrillas in the occupied area. Is it because the imperial court's dominance is insufficient, or is this opponent too awesome?"

Tucao return to Tucao, Zhou Ning has to admit that the spellcasters who drove the chariot performed quite well this time, and I don't know if there is a lesson learned from the past, so they can prepare accordingly.

In short, the arrow rain attack was perfectly restrained.

As the bugle sounded, the officers and soldiers on the march shouted in unison, blood like a flag, and merged with the spells of the formation chariot, forming a phantom of a dense forest above the team, and it was still burning with blood and flames. Forest.

After the rain of arrows fell, they disappeared one after another, and those explosive arrows did not explode.

Afterwards, two more waves of arrow rain flew one after another, both of which were deciphered by this military formation technique, and no new arrow rain appeared.

After walking for more than an hour, it was almost noon, and the tall mountains in front of us were clearly visible, covered with snow, but it was not beautiful under the noon sun, but very gloomy.

The reason is that the weird sea of ​​grass blocking the front of the team has to bear a large part of the responsibility.

Zhou Ning is in the Wangdou, and has a stretchable true 3D field of vision, which can see farther places. He found that at the end of the field of vision, rocks of all sizes can be seen everywhere. Even if there is grass, it is sparse, dry and withered. And covered with snow.

What is abnormal is that this sea of ​​grass blocking the road is lush and lush.Like the leaves in late autumn, they are dark green or even dark green, and there is no snow to be seen.

"What is this, an extraordinary version of a minefield? Knowing the purpose of the forest camp, it is deliberately arranged on the only way to pass? There is no way to go on this road, a typical wilderness journey..."

Just as Hu was pondering, there was an order from the other side of the car, asking him to pay attention to the vision of Caohai.

Well, this is his job, Zhou Ning thought to himself that he still has professional ethics.

Concentrate and perform vigilant work.

After a while, I saw the flame-breathing soldiers who had finished their cloaks come out in a row, clearing the way with firepower.

The appearance of these fire-breathing soldiers is unexpectedly similar to the flame soldiers of the Black Hand branch of the NOD Brotherhood in {Kane's Wrath}:

Full body armor, lined with high-temperature resistant fabric, carrying a fuel tank, holding a flamethrower, and a large and thick black-faced red-lined cloak, which is particularly conspicuous.

And the flames from the flamethrower surprised him.

The core is blazing white, followed by cyan blue, and the outermost is the orange flame.

According to spectral analysis, the core of such a flame definitely exceeds 2000 degrees Celsius.

He was once again moved by the power held by ordinary humans in this world.

This will be sprayed and cremated on the spot.

The fire-breathing soldiers burned the sea of ​​grass with raging flames.

Zhou Ning saw it clearly from a height, and there was indeed something in the sea of ​​grass as tall as half a person.

After being disturbed by the flames, they fled one after another. Looking down from a high place, one can clearly see the trajectories they formed when they were running.

Switch the game perspective, then press the V key to display the local health bar, wow!A large number of blood bars swam away, hundreds and thousands.

The main force of the army is on standby in front of Caohai, and the fire-breathing soldiers form an array, using flames to open the way and push forward.

This piece of grassland is extremely damp. Facing such a fire, only those covered by the flames will turn to ashes. A little farther away, they will become burnt. Dry and charred paste baked at high temperature.

What's even more frightening is that in the burnt place, even within 10 minutes, there are new grasses growing.

Faced with this situation, the formation chariot released its spell, and the burned land was like a rolled up grass blanket. The land, soil, and grass roots under the soil were all rolled up, revealing water stains, glowing Rancid black mud.

Soon after, the newly formed second team of fire-breathing soldiers went up to the top and burned the black mud with flames. For a while, smoke and water vapor arose.

And the rolled up ground, when rolled to a certain extent, will be grasped by the invisible magic hand, and then stand like bundles of straw in the nearby grass.

Afterwards, it was ignited by the magical flames from the formation vehicles, forming a column of smoke like a wolf's smoke, which looked very spectacular, like the effect of thick smoke rising from the city after it was bombed.

It was against this background that Zhou Ning noticed that a large number of creatures were gathering in the sea of ​​grass on the east side.

He immediately shot a letter arrow in that direction.

The main duty of the Night Watchman on the Nightmare Whistle is to use it as an early warning.This has nothing to do with whether the Night's Watch is a marksman or not.

'squeak! ' There was a very loud and piercing sound, and a clear trail of red light formed in the air.

Not long after, the formation car had its eyes of magic flying up, followed the trajectory to see the situation clearly, and then several bright 'basketballs' flew out.

Just like the one he used to blow up the stone mountain when he was attacked by the arrow rain in Fengying.

He estimated that this thing is mostly an attack method that comes with the formation vehicle. It only needs to be activated by the caster to use it, similar to firing a cannon.

But its power is much stronger than ordinary guns, at least it is the effect of a 200mm caliber naval gun, with a destruction radius of more than 5 feet, and the effect of the explosion is not an ordinary shock wave, but a very strong crushing effect.

From his perspective, in the dazzling flames, there was nothing bigger than a fist. No matter what kind of monsters gathered there, they were all smashed to pieces, and it was impossible to distinguish their appearance.

Burn grass, roll land, burn black mud, roll land...

In order to pass through Caohai safely, Lin Ying really spent a lot of money this time.

Zhou Ning reckoned that Lin Ying might have suffered a big loss here before, so this time he was fully prepared, step by step, and the proficient process made people feel distressed.

Until the sun slanted to the west, the Caohai Avenue, nearly three miles long, was opened up.

Following the fire-breathing soldiers, the soldiers, under the leadership of the officers and soldiers, used the logs as curbstones in an orderly manner and nailed them into the ground one by one.

These logs are obviously also prepared in advance and have been specially treated.

After nailing it down, it took root and sprouted, and its branches intertwined with each other like vines, forming a log wall, keeping the sea of ​​grass out of the wall.

At the same time, the ground of the avenue, which had been repeatedly burned and rolled to reveal the original color of the soil, was covered with coarse salt like sand grains.

The gray and white coarse salt was sprinkled like no money, which reminded Zhou Ning of the scene of modern earth people building highways, that kind of model, that kind of luxury, very similar.

At the same time, he was also secretly baffled by such costs.

During the road construction, the enemy also organized several waves of monster attacks, but they were all resolved.

Zhou Ning knew that there were quite a few monsters living in the sea of ​​grass alone.

Now that the enemy is no longer only available, it is likely that they want to find a better opportunity to attack the wooden wall defense.Just like driving away the ants to attack the city, at least the moat can be filled with corpses.

With the paving of the salt road, the sun is not far from setting.

Order the car, and Lin Ying will spend the night on Yan Road tonight.

Zhou Ning was puzzled and speechless. The salt road was about 500 meters long. Divided by 500 people, there was an average of one person every three meters.

Even if it is used as a trench, this little man can't hold it, and he is beaten at both ends.

Moreover, these 500 people were used as engineering soldiers during the day, and they built two wooden walls with a total length of more than three kilometers. Even with the help of extraordinary magic, the physical strength would be exhausted. How could they have the strength to fight?
Now he can only hope that the casters have some powerful means that he does not know, otherwise tonight may be in danger.

Facts have proved that spellcasters do have means, simply put, planting trees.

As night fell, the tree wall grew wildly, and under the guidance of the spellcaster, the vine-like branches formed a vault, turning the salt road into a tree gallery.

In addition, Zhou Ning also noticed that the tree wall was crazily absorbing coarse salt and plundering the evil power in the black soil outside the wall.

It took less than an hour for the coarse salt to disappear, replaced by a floor made of roots.

Zhou Ning secretly commented on the word 'service'.

Before, he thought that the planting system given to him by the system was awesome.

Only now do I know that compared to the real plants in this world, at least for now, he is still a younger brother.

A safe night without even asking him to keep watch.

The next morning, Zhou Ning noticed that the tree wall should have been attacked last night, and many traces had not been covered up.

It seems that without the kosher salt, the growth and resilience of the plant was lower.

But I have to admit that even so, it is basically enough.

The outside of the tree gallery now seems to be surrounded by a huge amount of vines and aerial roots. Just by looking at it, one can feel that it will be a huge project to clean them up.

It can be said that it has been integrated with the earth here, and at the same time it is clearly separated from Caohai.Around it, the soil was tawny and cracked, and no grass grew.

What surprised Zhou Ning and made sense was that today, the task of the officers and soldiers of the forest battalion was to start the second round of construction on the tree gallery.

It was only then that he realized that the commander of the Lin camp had indeed intended to build a bridgehead-like military depot here.

Build towers and attics on the tree porch.

Zhou Ning has seen the "weaving party" this time, thousands of vines, under the influence of spells, they make up like weaving baskets, single-layer, multi-layer, compound, and finally finalized in place.

Just as he was thinking, this will be attacked by fire, and it will be turned into a sacrificial paper fire in minutes. As a result, a small area of ​​artificial snow began, and then the snow melted into ice...

As a result, the concrete barrier with vines as steel bars and ice instead of cement and sand was initially built.

Zhou Ning also noticed that while the casters were perfecting the details, such as the gates at both ends of the tree corridor, the trench suspension bridge, etc., they also added a lot of runestones and rune arrays to the military station.

He estimated that some of them should maintain low temperature, and even adjust the feng shui climate here, and maybe form a cycle.

At this time, Zhou Ning finally had the sense of sight that the magic height is one foot, and the road is one foot high.

In this dark world, it is the Xuanmen decent sect that governs human beings, rather than the demon sect evil way that adapts to the environment. The reason is that the former is more powerful and has higher technology.

The strange sea of ​​grass, and this frozen wood military depot, are a very representative comparison.
