Chapter 683: Cat and mouse game

Views:

A game of cat and mouse is going on in the depths of the magical forest...

In a dark bush, the black soil suddenly cracked, and a large group of black beetles gushed out from it, and gradually bulged into a strange human shape.

The worm witch Billis condensed out from behind the worm, sensing the other 'baits' from a distance, his face immediately became very ugly.

In order to avoid being chased by that powerful elf, he has dispatched four suspect soldiers to flee to different regions. But now, it seems that there are only two left that can be sensed.

That is to say, during the time he was struggling to escape, two insect armies with a number of more than 10,000 were completely wiped out. And with the destruction of these two insect armies, there are still 6 demonized praying mantises.

After all, the demonized mantis was his standard bodyguard. If they were not included in the suspect team, it would be difficult to fool the forest elves who regarded the magic forest as their home.

Intimidated by that powerful elf, the worm witch Billis didn't dare to show his face at all, so he could only frequently dock the gecko's tail in an attempt to lure the other party away and escape smoothly. But it's a pity that the Zerg Army travels too slowly underground. Even if the elves are led astray for a while, they will quickly eliminate the suspects and find the news of the Zerg Army's presence again.

Those Hippogryph shooters who 'worked for the tiger' usually dare not appear in front of the demonized mantis. Now they are also showing off their might and shuttling over the vast forest sea, relying on strange skills such as wind information, plant conversation, animal conversation, etc., looking for news and whereabouts of the largest bug army.

After all, the magic forest is the home of the forest elves!

Here, they have too many ways and means to find out the traces of outsiders.

Therefore, after being forced out of the ground, the worm witch Billis became ruthless and divided the 120,000 worm army and the 18 demonized praying mantises left in his hands into four teams. Fleeing through forests and streams, they fled in four different directions.

At this moment, large groups of insect army can be seen running and hunting recklessly in the entire magic forest. The demonized praying mantises accompanying the team hid in the canopy of the trees with the help of the 'vegetation invisibility' ability. When the elf archers drove the hippogryph to fly low over the forest tops, they suddenly attacked and killed them.

With this method, all of a sudden, the elf archer was attacked and died everywhere in this vast magic forest, which was almost hundreds of miles away. And Ai Jiaye, the Spear of Vengeance, led an elite team of shooters to put out fires everywhere.

Wherever a large group of insect army or demonized praying mantis appeared, they quickly rushed there with the help of hippogryphs.

Whether it is a dense army of insects or a ferocious and cunning demonized praying mantis, in front of Ai Jiaye, the spear of revenge, they are all ants that can be wiped out with a wave. Even if Billis gathers all the demonized mantises to kill Ai Jiaye, it will only make her slaughter a little more enjoyable, and it is difficult to cause some damage to it with this amount.

Precisely because he recognized this early on, Billis simply broke up the formation of the demonized mantises and let them fight on their own, avoiding the hordes of elves and strong men, and looking for some lonely guys to attack . Although this can't stop the destruction of the demonized praying mantis, it can drag the opponent's energy and make their destruction slower.

After paying such a big sacrifice, the worm witch Billis turned around and fled southeast with a 30,000 worm army and six demonized praying mantises.

When escaping before, the bug army has been desperately moving towards the edge of the west coast. And Billis was worried that his movements had been grasped by the elves, so he could only send two suspicious soldiers in that direction, while he led the army towards the southeast hinterland.

Perhaps it was because his strategy of suspecting soldiers took effect, a large number of hippogryph shooters were really confused by the intricate enemy situation, and put the main force of chasing and killing on a few suspicious soldiers.

This also gave Billis plenty of opportunities to escape. After fighting with an elf chasing soldier and retreating to a safe area, he suddenly counterattacked with all his strength. Relying on six demonized praying mantises and an army of 30,000 worms, the worm witch Bliss directly strangled and killed more than a dozen Hippogryph shooters who were following them, and then fled into the distant forest unwillingly.

When Ai Jiaye, the Spear of Revenge, heard the news and rushed to the scene of the accident, the weird bug army had already disappeared.

Furious, Ai Jiaye immediately asked the following elves to return to Tianshui City to report the situation here, and sent nearby elf city defenders to surround and intercept them. And she herself went on the road alone again, chasing into the jungle following the traces left by the insect army.

...

This is a rocky wasteland bordering the coastline.

On one side is the surging violent sea tide, on the other side is a slightly sparse low jungle.

The magic forest has come to an end here. Those tall, straight and huge ancient trees are hard to see. The only green that can be seen on these rocky wastelands are low shrubs and slippery moss.

In an extremely hidden cave on the edge of the coastline, a large group of vampire bats hung upside down above the cold and damp cave wall, huddled together. And around the excavated firepit below, six young men and women with straight bodies sat silently.

Three of them were wearing blood-colored armor, with blood-colored long swords around their waists and hips. They were burly and sturdy. They were the three blood knights who had followed Mary for a long time, Soros, Wensol and Jose. Sitting opposite them were the three Tier 2 blood elves Bonnie (female, archer), Cantis (female, archer) and Leo (male, weapon master), whom Mary had just recruited.

As for those little ones of Tier 1, they could only shrink back and hide in the periphery, and they were not qualified to approach these powerhouses of Tier 2 at all.

As for the ruler of all vampires, Blood Queen Mary reclined on a stone platform with her eyes closed, while the old fox Wenlier stood beside her respectfully.

There was a slight sound of flapping wings.

A vampire bat landed on a pile of rocks, looked around for a long time with its small eyes, and after making sure that no one was following it, it broke through a small pile of rocks and entered the cave.

Following a burst of rapid and strange twisting and transformation, the vampire bat transformed into a young man, tiptoed to Wenlier's side, and whispered something in his ear.

After reporting the information, the young man turned into a vampire bat again at the entrance of the cave, got out of the cave, flapped his bat wings again and flew towards the nearby forest.

"What's wrong?" Mary asked with her head supported on her hands, lying on her side on the stone platform, without opening her eyes.

"Master, the sentinels that were placed on the periphery just now came back to report back. Today, the number of elves patrolling is less than half that of yesterday. Do you see?" Wenlier hurriedly bowed to answer.

Mary hesitated for a moment, opened her eyes and asked, "Where is Billis?"

"Master Bliss, the bug witch, has sent you three rescue requests..." The old fox Wenlier said with a wry smile, "The Spear of Revenge is chasing him very closely. I heard that Mr. Bliss's bug army is less than 20,000. !"

After these days of investigation, the vampires have figured out the specific information about that powerful elf!

"Do you think we should rescue him?" Mary narrowed her eyes, her ruby-like scarlet pupils flickering with a faint coldness.

"Lord Chongwu is also a battle wizard cultivated by the head of the family. If he is allowed to be lost in the magic forest at will, it will be a big loss to the future development of the Crimson family." Wenlier always had a smile on his face. Gentle smile.

"Then you mean...rescue?" Mary smiled lightly.

"Of course we need to be rescued!" Wen Lier also apologized with a smile: "However, rushing directly to the rescue like this may not help the matter, and it may also attract the attention of the Spear of Revenge."

"Then what do you say?"

"We might as well change the battlefield. The surrounding area of Tianshui City has become a dangerous place. The elves have set up many traps there, just waiting for us to crash into it. Instead of this, we might as well turn around and go north to let the flames of war burn even wider. Some… "

Mary squinted her eyes and listened carefully, but didn't answer. The old fox Wenlier could only continue to analyze.

"First, let's figure out what are we doing here?"

"This time when we come to the Jialan Continent, our main task is to help that Lord Alice obtain the prophecy scepter. To do this, we must gather the strong and elite troops from the central mountain range of the Elven Kingdom Mobilize out."

"So far, the Elven Kingdom still only gathers the elite main force and a large number of powerful people near the south coast to prevent the fourth-level pale witch from bringing people into the Jialan Continent. So no matter how rampant we are here, they They also dare not draw troops and strong men from the south coast."

"My lord has been slaughtering elves on the southwest coast a while ago, in order to lure them to send troops. When there is a vacancy in the central mountain range, my lord's infiltration plan will be possible. At that time, my lord, I don't know where you will choose to go?"

Mary couldn't help snorting coldly when she heard the words, and stood upright on the stone platform.

"Hmph, of course I'm going too... There are strong people gathered in the central mountain range, and there are as many envoys as dogs. If I don't help, how can it be possible with just a few of them!"

The old fox Wen Lier sighed secretly in his heart, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.

"Then we should make a lot of trouble... It's best to fight the elves on the south coast and the pale witches. At that time, the pressure that the Patriarch may face will be much less..."

He figured it out, his seemingly fierce mistress was sincere to the Patriarch. He didn't care about the danger of the Central Mountain Range at all, and he didn't begrudge the vampire team that had finally been pulled together, with an attitude of willingness to back down.

This made Wenlier couldn't help but slander secretly.

However, relying on the shackles of blood, it is impossible for him to have any ulterior motives, so he can only pinch his nose and make plans for Mary according to Mary's wishes. Anyway, the strategy was designed by him, no matter how the situation develops in the future, it is impossible for him to let himself fall into a desperate situation.

So the old fox is still very calm in his heart!
