Chapter 197: The Enemy in the Dark Forest (Part 2)

"who?"

Leon shouted angrily, and his whole body jumped up like a powerful crossbow full of strength, and rushed towards the dark jungle not far away.

The entire camp was immediately alarmed, and the mercenaries emerged from their tents. Although they were all sleepy, they all picked up weapons.

Camping in the forest of the secret realm is always possible to face danger, so they will not take off their armor when they sleep, and their weapons are even handy. Once there is any disturbance, the mercenaries can prepare for battle as soon as possible.

The old lion Guchi did not follow Leon to search for the enemy, but rushed to the tent where the shaman lived as fast as possible, blessed the soul armor to guard it to prevent the enemy from sneak attacking the shaman.

On this side, Leon rushed into the jungle with lightning speed. The obscurity of the vines and trees made the darkness here so heavy that it seemed that even the light could not penetrate. However, the insects that were disturbing the flying in the grass told Leon where the enemy was.

Many of these insects can emit extremely faint light. They are fireflies in the dark, and the flying spots of light are undoubtedly the best guide.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The enemy lurking in the dark realized that his whereabouts were exposed and immediately blocked Leon.

An unknown sharp blade flew through the air, making a trembling and strange low roar, and it was impossible to capture the trajectory of its attack in the darkness.

Leon reacted very quickly, and raised his Lei Yan sword to protect his chest. He only heard a crisp "ding" sound. The metal impact sparks flashed by, and a flying sharp blade was knocked out.

But another sharp blade brushed against his shoulders, leaving a scar on the soul armor that protected his body.

Assassin? Scout? Leon's tiger eyes flashed with a cold light. He relied on his feelings to determine that the opponent was shooting hidden weapons like arc-blade flying swords.

And this is definitely not the style of Beamon warriors, but a sharp interception and attack weapon that human assassins or scouts like to use.

All kinds of thoughts passed by Leon's mind like lightning, but his movements were not slow at all. He slapped his left hand and instantly pulled out four thorns on his waist, swaying his hand to shoot at the enemy's position.

This is called eye for eye for eye for tooth. While the enemy intercepts Leon, it also completely exposed its traces.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The black ridge is more swift and hidden than the arc-blade flying knife. Only the lightning attached to it can be vaguely identified. However, when you see the lightning, you may have been hit by it.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

The dull sound of breaking out sounded, and at least three ridges hit the target. The enemy in the dark obviously did not expect that Leon had such powerful means, and he had no time to use the counterattack, so he hurriedly retreated deep into the jungle.

A truly excellent scout, when he was discovered, should be retreating. The lurker obviously despised Leon's strength and thought that relying on his hidden weapon could make Leon suffer a great loss and he could escape calmly.

He made a huge mistake without a doubt.

While the edge stab hit the enemy, Leon stepped heavily on the entangled vines on the ground. He took advantage of his strength to jump up again. The Lei Yan Battle Knife drew a brilliant trajectory of light in the air, slashing straight towards the escaped black shadow.

The dazzling light of the sword light tore through the darkness and illuminated the scene within dozens of feet around. The lurker had nowhere to hide and was completely exposed to Leon's sight!

The lurker is delicate and thin, wearing dark green tight leather armor, holding a dagger and a short crossbow on his back, and a standard scout outfit.

There was a layer of dark green light protection outside his body, not soul armor or magic shield.

The sudden light surprised the scout who was obviously a human race. He realized the terrible power from behind and hurriedly changed direction and rushed towards the bushes on the other side.

While dodging, he threw his left arm in the opposite direction, and opened his left hand and shot two arc blades to slow down Leon's attack.

It is undeniable that the scout's ability to adapt is appreciated - without the mistakes made before, he is fully capable of running away.

But now he wants to leave, it depends on whether Leon agrees or not.

Facing the two arc blades flying towards him, Leon didn't even look at him and waved his left hand. With the powerful defense ability of the body-protecting soul armor, he slapped one of them and carried the other one.

The sharp sword force did not diminish at all, but it turned slightly, whistling straight down, barely hitting the scout's left shoulder.

He waved his sword and concentrated his mind without distraction. No matter what tricks the other party had, he would not stop until his sword was completed!

Leon's attack was largely in line with the mystery of sword skills. This sword was perfect in terms of strength, speed and momentum. Although the scout tried his best to dodge, he still did not escape the disaster of one sword.

The sword light containing the powerful flame element power ruthlessly cut open the thin layer of Dou Qi protection outside the scout's body.

Puchi!

A knife flashed, and an arm fell straight to the ground.

"ah!"

The seriously injured scout let out a low scream. He was also brave. Under such circumstances, he not only did not continue to escape, but turned around and stabbed Leon's neck with a tight dagger in his right hand.

The dagger's body shines brightly, and the tip exudes a long aura. The human fighting spirit and the soul power of Behemoth have the same power as the scout's desperate counterattack.

However, Leon, who had succeeded with one knife, was not careless. Seeing the scout turn around and stabbing the dagger, he raised his right leg without hesitation and kicked it on the side, and kicked the scout in the abdomen first.

One inch long and one inch stronger. If the scout was holding a long sword, he would definitely be able to stab Leon first. Unfortunately, his dagger was really shorter and his figure was not as tall as Leon.

The dagger shining with the light of Dou Qi paused half a foot away from Leon. The scout bent his body and fell out, crashing heavily into the thorny bushes behind him, unable to even climb up.

"Lion!"

"Lei! Are you okay?"

Hurry footsteps came from behind Leon, and the members of the Holy Blade rushed over.

A circle of milky white halos bloomed in the dense forest, and the dazzling light shone brightly around like day. It was the lighting spell released by the shaman, which helped the mercenaries find the place of Leon immediately.

"It's the scout of the human race..." Leon pointed to the bushes in front of him and said, "I was injured."

The two warriors rushed over immediately like wolves and tigers, preparing to arrest the seriously injured scout.

But what everyone did not expect was that the scout smiled and raised the dagger, stabbed it hard in his chest, and stabbed it into his heart!

He raised his head and his eyes were blank, his body twitched and his arms slid down, without any more noise.

The mercenary who rushed over shook his head helplessly and stopped.

It was so cruel! Leon's heart was shocked. The scout's ruthlessness was beyond his expectations.

The existence of a scout must represent the existence of an adventure team, and the general strength of the scout can also be judged from the performance of the scout.

The existence of such a human team that is likely to be malicious is undoubtedly a great threat to the Holy Blade.

However, because the scout committed suicide, Leon had no way of judging whether his peek into the Holy Blade was an unintentional encounter or a deliberate surveillance. The nature of the two must be different.

The other team members also realized this problem. Everyone looked bad. If their actions fell into the other party's sight early, it would be dangerous.

"Don't rest from now on, be ready to fight at any time!" Odniz, who rushed over, said in a deep voice: "Everyone is vigilant and be careful!"

"Kaka, go search the corpse and see if you can find out his identity."

Everyone returned to the temporary camp, and the two warriors went around to cut more wood, making the bonfire even more prosperous.

Fei Li quietly hid in the jungle and took on the task of periphery.

Leon noticed that Odeniz had no concern about his daughter's own separation, and obviously he had full confidence in her strength.

Kaka quickly got back the items, weapons, dry food and even coins he had found from the human scouts.

Odniz took out a silver badge from a pile of things. He carefully identified the pattern on it, thought for a while and said, "The Gaosen Mercenary Squad should be the Nulan Fortress from the human race. I wonder if their appearance is related to our mission."

Nulan Fortress is the closest stronghold among the human forces to the Bimon sphere. Human adventurers who come out of Nulan Fortress often fight conflicts and battles in the secret forests.

Most importantly, the Nulan Fortress and the Wild Fortress are not far from the ruins of Gossas.

The situation seemed to be complicated! Leon turned his head and looked at Gonggo, huddled aside. He felt that the other party seemed to have concealed something. This task might be very difficult.

"Anyway, we strive to arrive at the ruins of Gossas before sunset tomorrow. If the danger exceeds expectations..." Odniz's sharp eyes also fell on Goggo: "I will give up the mission."

A real mercenary team will not take risks with the lives of the team members, and Odeniz is definitely not a foolish character.

Gongo lowered his head, dared not look at Odeniz's gaze, nor did he express his objection.

For a moment, the camp fell into silence and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Leon coughed and took out the wooden box that he had originally planned to give to the old lion from his pocket, which contained the best cigars.

"Is this a cigar?" The old lion could recognize it and said in surprise: "This is the exclusive product of the nobles!"

"Who said that only the nobles can smoke?" Leon smiled and distributed the cigars. Of course, Odeniz and others would not refuse his kindness.

In the long second half of the night, accompanied by a bonfire, no enemies appeared again.
