The two cautiously advanced for a certain distance, and then crouched down behind the dense bushes at the edge of the swamp. [] It was very close to the fishman village from here, and it would be easy to be discovered if they continued to move forward.
Although Roger had already sent hippogryphs to hover in the sky to detect the enemy, these monsters had limited intelligence after all and could only provide him with information such as "the enemy is moving" or "there are many enemies". I really want to find out.
The specific situation of the fishman village still needs to be observed by Roger himself.
Roger hid behind the bushes and carefully poked his head out to observe the situation in the fishman village. He soon discovered that these guys were more powerful than imagined.
The village where the fish people live should be some ancient human ruins. This can be seen from the remaining stone walls and the half-collapsed black stone tower in the center of the village. These buildings are obviously made by humans, not these
It can be made by uncivilized fish people with low IQ.
However, what Roger is concerned about is not the living conditions of these murlocs, but their number and physique. According to the information provided by the Adventurer's Guild, the number of murlocs ranges from fifty to seventy, and they are all relatively thin.
The rotten fin murlocs. However, Roger found that the situation was completely different. The number of murlocs he could reach was at least
Twice as many as the intelligence mentioned. These guys are also taller than ordinary rotten-fin murlocs, almost reaching the chest of an adult man. Such a tall physique is even stronger than the more ferocious sharp-toothed murlocs.
So strong that Roger wondered if the Adventurer's Guild was deliberately portraying the fishmen as weak in order to pay them less.
However, when Roger's eyes fell on a corner of the fish-man village, he immediately understood why the situation he arrived was seriously inconsistent with the intelligence. There were a large amount of food, piles of bread, countless fish, and barrels of ale.
There were even a few human corpses. Murlocs were not picky eaters, and they would not let go of anything they could eat.
For half-human, half-fish monsters like murlocs, as long as they have enough food, their bodies will be much larger than their normal counterparts, and their reproductive capabilities will be much stronger. These murlocs attack humans on the edge of the mud swamp.
, robbed merchant ships, and obviously lived a very prosperous life, so they became so strong and their numbers increased very quickly.
"There are at least one hundred and twenty murlocs." Roger retracted behind the bushes and whispered to Bonnie: "And they are all big men. Their combat power must be stronger than expected."
She didn't expect the enemy to be so strong, and the female knight was also a little surprised. However, she knew very well Roger's determination to pass the trial, and quickly whispered firmly: "Don't stay too far away from me for a while, otherwise it will be difficult for me to protect him."
you!"
"Damn, how can I, a grown man, let my own woman protect me?!" Roger glared at Bonnie and said, "You'd better follow me, I'll protect you!"
After knowing the strength of the fish-men, Bonnie was not in a relaxed mood. To be honest, she did not have the confidence to complete the mission. If it were not for Roger, the female knight would probably have chosen to retreat. Seeing Roger at such a critical moment
Still joking with himself, Bonnie glanced at him angrily and said: "Be serious, this is a real battle, and you will die if you are careless!"
"That's why I asked you not to leave me." Roger smiled confidently at Bonnie, and then with a thought, he summoned all his soldiers to the main material world.
The space near Roger was slightly distorted, and then several groups of fully armed soldiers appeared. These soldiers included spearmen, sword warriors, longbowmen and light crossbowmen. They formed a neat queue as soon as they appeared.
Definitely comparable to those veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles.
After a period of work in recent days, Roger has equipped all soldiers with half-body leather armor, making these soldiers more intimidating. Roger also believes that equipping leather armor will make soldiers more survivable in battle.
This is very important for him who is increasingly short of soul power.
Although Bonnie had seen these soldiers under Roger before, she was still shocked when they suddenly appeared in front of her. At this time, the female knight finally understood why Roger let her stay by his side. With these
The soldiers fought for Roger, and there was no need to worry about the danger the two of them would encounter.
However, the female knight quickly remembered a question and couldn't help but frown and whispered: "The trial requires students to only use their own strength. Isn't it a violation for you to do this?"
"This is my own power, I just don't show it at ordinary times." Roger said with a look of innocence: "And it's obvious that someone is cheating in the test and deliberately wants to kill me. Do you allow others to cheat, but I can't even do it?"
Can’t you use all your strength?”
Although Roger's words sounded a bit unreasonable to Bonnie, the female knight did not say anything more and acquiesced in his approach. Bonnie found it difficult to stick to her principles with Roger. Last time she treated him as a nightmare beast.
The mount turned a blind eye and acquiesced to him breaking the rules of the trial this time. The female knight was a little worried that if this situation continued, she might eventually lose herself completely.
Roger didn't know what Bonnie was worried about. Seeing that she no longer opposed his approach, he immediately sent two soldiers to rush towards the fishman village.
Not long after the two soldiers appeared from behind the bushes, they were discovered by the fishmen on guard. The two fishmen on guard immediately shouted loudly, but their voices sounded far more excited than alarming.
Hearing the calls of their kind, more murlocs rushed out of the village, brandishing various weapons and opening their big mouths full of sharp teeth, and rushed towards the two soldiers. After so much time in the mud swamp,
After a long time of leisure, the murlocs have regarded human beings as hunting targets, and human flesh has become the favorite food of many murlocs. Therefore, these murlocs rushing out are not so much defending the village as hunting.
appropriate.
In an instant, at least nearly a hundred fishmen rushed out of the village and ran towards the two soldiers. Although their short legs were not suitable for running on solid dry land, they were able to survive in the mud and water of the mud swamp.
The terrain with many ponds is very suitable for dozens of murlocs
They arrived very quickly, shortening the distance between them and the two soldiers by half in the blink of an eye. More fishmen also rushed out of the village with shouts, although they were already a step behind compared to their peers.
But I still hope to get a piece of the pie and get some fresh human flesh to try.
Seeing that his goal of luring the enemy had been achieved, Roger immediately directed the two soldiers to run towards the bushes. Behind the bushes, all the soldiers were standing ready, ready to fight at any time.
