The edge of the Black Forest is no longer the tranquility and nature of the past, and the piles of tree stumps look unusually heavy and dazzling. With the recovery ability of the Black Forest, it can't withstand the logging and destruction of a large group of mercenaries. Without the protection of native races, no matter how weird the Black Forest is, it cannot stop its destruction.
Hundreds of workers and mercenaries are still tirelessly cutting down trees. Originally, there were not many opportunities to harvest the Black Forest, so the high timber prices could be used to offset taxes. Now City Lord Nanqing directly increased the purchase price by 30%, which made many low-level mercenaries who dare not go deep into the Black Forest see an opportunity to make money. They can also earn a good income by staying on the edge of the forest and logging, which is no less than the life-and-death battles in the past.
No matter how low the level of these mercenaries is, they are the best workers when it comes to logging. After all, their strength lies there. It seems that City Lord Nanqing couldn't wait any longer. Before all the native races could be wiped out, he had already started setting up the logging camp.
Guarding the lumberyard is a team of elite soldiers in full armor. Although they have removed their identification marks, they can still be seen as the direct line of troops of Nan Qingcheng. City Lord Nanqing is already enclosing the land, and the handwriting is really not small. Even if someone smells it in the future and joins the line of the empire, Nanqingcheng has already seized the opportunity. If there is a large supply of wood, it will definitely gain more support from the empire. Furthermore, if the Black Forest is so well developed, the price of wood will not be so expensive. With the strength of the city lord Nanqing, he also had to borrow the power of the Spider Emperor to be able to go so smoothly.
When Qianye appeared, the guard soldiers just regarded him as a lone mercenary, wanting to try his luck in the Black Forest. They had seen a lot of people like this, so they waved their guns and signaled Qianye to go around the logging camp and then enter the Black Forest.
The Black Forest at this moment is quite different from when Qianye walked through it for the first time. There are traces of fierce battles everywhere in it, and many trees have fallen to the ground, but they have not been absorbed by the forest. The entire forest was lifeless and lifeless.
There are battle traces everywhere in the forest, but it is hard to tell the direction. But since he came to the Black Forest, Qianye stopped being polite and rushed towards the direction where the voice came from. After a while, several mercenaries appeared in front of Qianye, hurrying on their way.
Qianye blocked the way alone with a sword, and asked with a blank expression, "Where is that little girl surrounded?"
An unruly mercenary squinted at Qianye, and said with a smirk, "Why should I tell you?"
Qianye didn't answer, Dongyue flashed, and the mercenary's head flew into the sky, shock and fear were intertwined and frozen on his face. After beheading one person, Qianye looked at the next mercenary. The mercenary obviously hadn't recovered from the shock, and instinctively pointed his gun at Qianye. Fortunately, he reacted fairly quickly, and immediately put down the gun, already breaking out in a cold sweat.
"The little girl and the native ghosts are all in that direction, and we are about to rush there." The mercenary pointed in one direction.
"How's the situation over there?"
"I heard that it is commanded by the head of Galewind Fury, and an encirclement circle has been built, and it is slowly eating away at the native ghosts."
Qianye asked a little strangely: "Aren't you afraid of revenge from the native race when you attack and cut down forests so aggressively?"
"I heard that the Spider Emperor has sent a real strong man to the town to keep an eye on the native race. If there is a strong man over there to rescue, they will naturally be stopped. It is said that there are still big men coming over."
Suddenly, Qianye knew that these people were determined to win this Black Forest. Otherwise, it would be unreasonable to make such a big fight just for little Zhu Ji. Of course, this is based on Spider Emperor not being aware of little Zhuji's true talent. If he found out, he might rush over in person right away.
After getting the information he needed, Qianye's eyes turned cold.
A sharp-eyed mercenary screamed loudly: "Run, he wants to fight!"
It's a pity that it was too late to run away at this time, Qianye moved Dongdong Yue several times, beheaded all the mercenaries, and rushed towards the encirclement.
Qianye traveled through the black forest much faster than ordinary people. It didn't take long for him to see a battlefield in front of him.
In the vast area, battles broke out everywhere. Groups of mercenaries and native fighters fought in a melee. The small battlefields intersected with each other, and there was no battle line at all. At the back of the battlefield, dozens of strong and healthy warriors were cutting down ancient trees, some with axes and some with wheel saws. The strength of this group of people is different from that of the workers in the logging camp outside. They can cut down a big tree in just a few strokes.
Under the continuous logging, a long and narrow blank area quickly formed in the Black Forest, and it continued to stretch, separating the two sides.
Qianye was not in a hurry to act, but after observing for a while, he saw the clue. Wherever this isolation zone extends, the movements of the original fighters will be a little slower, and there will be fewer changes in the elusive and elusive, and the combat power will drop accordingly. The native warriors also seemed to know the threat of the isolation zone, and kept rushing out of the forest, trying to kill the loggers. The mercenaries tried their best to stop them.
The mercenaries were already good at small-scale battles in groups of three or five, and they knew the attack direction of the native races. They were able to attack and defend for a while, and they were evenly matched in the Black Forest. A middle-aged soldier in gray battle armor stood on a high place, shouting from time to time, mobilizing soldiers to fill in the weak spots. A line of defense under his leadership is as stable as Mount Tai, and no matter how the native race attacks, it will not be able to threaten the separation zone.
The role of this isolation zone is quite magical, it seems to be able to cut off the blessing of the mysterious power of the Black Forest to the original race. It's just surprising that such a simple and crude method actually works.
Qianye watched for a moment, then glanced at the middle-aged mercenary in command, then walked through the defense line and walked deep into the encirclement. He restrained his breath and became inconspicuous in this chaotic battlefield. Occasionally, one or two unlucky ghosts accidentally found Qianye and came up to intercept him, only to turn himself into a corpse.
In the Black Forest, there was no real siege, the mercenaries just laid a big net. However, under the command of the Galewind Fury Mercenary Group, this large net is not leaking, and will not miss important targets.
After crossing the melee zone, the surrounding area became much quieter, and the forest became darker. Qianye could feel wisps of mysterious power lingering in the forest. The forest in this area has not been destroyed, and the native warriors can display more strength.
However, there are faint battle sounds from several directions, and the real mercenary masters have already gone deep, trying to gain more benefits.
In the black forest, Qianye's perception was also limited, unable to sense Zhu Ji's position. But now that we have come to the core of the battlefield, finding little Zhu Ji has become very simple: kill all the mercenaries you see, and Zhu Ji will naturally be safe. As for the original race, it depends on their attitude towards Zhu Ji. If he had malicious intentions towards little Zhuji, then Qianye would not mind killing them.
Qianye walked quickly through the forest and soon came to a battlefield. On one side are more than a dozen mercenaries, all of whom are dressed in the clothes of Galewind Fury. Among them, there are three human battlefields and three blood viscounts, which can be said to be extremely powerful.
They spread out in a half-moon shape, advancing slowly. On the opposite side of this battle line, there are about dozens of native fighters. They kept jumping back and forth between the ancient trees, their movements were weird and flexible, trying to interfere with the judgment of the Galewind Fury mercenaries. However, the mercenaries were experienced and unmoved at all, just advancing steadily.
If the native fighters want to break away from the two wings, the mercenaries will move the battle line accordingly, and the people on the other side will continue to attack, biting the opponent tightly. It seems that unless these native fighters pay a heavy price, it is possible to break out from the flank. But they seemed unwilling to give up their companions, and they were forced to back away.
If this continues, those native fighters will be forced out of the core forest area sooner or later. After a certain distance, we will reach the outer encirclement. At that time, they will be completely surrounded and then annihilated.
The native fighters also seemed to know that it would be bad if they retreated, and they would attack the mercenary defense line from time to time. But among the mercenaries, there are too many strong ones, and they burst out with tyrannical combat power in an instant, killing the native warriors who rushed to the front in one fell swoop. After repeating this several times, the original race failed to open up the situation except for dropping a few corpses.
At this time, a small figure appeared among the native warriors, sitting on the shoulders of a tall warrior, it was little Zhu Ji.
Seeing Zhu Ji, the mercenaries' eyes turned red immediately, a warrior and two blood viscounts immediately left the battle line, and rushed towards Zhu Ji like lightning!
Their joint offensive was astonishingly powerful. The few primitive fighters guarding in front of the tall fighter couldn't even block it for a single round, soaring into the air, they had already turned into corpses in the air. And the three strong mercenaries flanked the tall warrior from different directions. The two viscounts held two swords each, launching a storm-like offensive, while the human warrior was slightly behind, took out a force gun, and kept turning around the tall warrior without shooting.
The tall warrior roared again and again, and seemed a little flustered for a while. He is far stronger than any of the three, but he has Zhu Ji on his body, and at the same time he has to guard against the prying eyes of the surrounding human mercenaries.
In a blink of an eye, the Terran warrior found his chance and shot out with one shot!
Little Zhu Ji screamed, the gun was aimed at her! At such a close distance, she didn't have time to dodge, blood flashed on her forehead, she threw her head back, and her small body flew out.
The tall warrior roared and flew to save little Zhu Ji. As a result, the door of Buddhism opened wide, and he was hit with several swords. When he held Zhu Ji in his arms, he was already covered in blood.
"Come back to me! Lao Meng, you are acting hard. If you kill that little guy, the boss will definitely kill you!" A human warrior in the front line roared.
The three strong mercenaries who rushed out resentfully retreated, wanting to return to the battle line. However, they suddenly saw a person walking out from behind the front line, holding a long spear that made people's heart skip a beat, and said coldly: "You don't have to go back!"
