Monarch of Evernight: Eighty Crossing Pass

bsp;Qianye took over the telescope and saw creatures that looked like giant crocodiles crawling on the two mountain walls that looked like knives. They have dark scales and are several meters long. They crawl slowly on steep or even straight mountain walls, as if they were walking on flat ground.

The scene in front of him gave Qianye a chill. The last time he came here, the number of these ferocious beasts he saw was not so large, and most of them were lurking in dark and remote corners, rarely crawling out in a big way. Come outside. And now there are hundreds of these ferocious crocodile-like beasts on the mountain walls on both sides, and there are still many more hidden in invisible places.

"Do you know where these things come from?" Qianye asked.

"According to observations, it is very likely that they crawled out of the forest in the southwest, but they do not look like native creatures in the forest terrain. It is indeed a bit strange. Our scouts tried to get close, but the ferocious beasts over there The force was too strong and I finally gave up on in-depth exploration," Zhu Wuya said.

"Oh? How strong are they?"

"Most of the strength is directly proportional to the size. The weakest among them require a third-level warrior to deal with, and the larger ones require a fourth-level warrior to stop them. You see, the ones over there are extraordinarily big. They may be the leaders. Only me, Lao Duan, and a few lieutenant colonels can handle this level."

Qianye nodded and asked: "What is the relationship between them and werewolves?"

Duan Hao replied, "It doesn't seem to matter. Some time ago, I saw a reckless werewolf guard breaking into the place where they were entrenched, and was instantly torn into pieces."

However, even though these mountain crocodiles have nothing to do with werewolves, their current activity area happens to occupy the mountain walls on both sides of the pass, which is equivalent to adding a natural danger to the werewolves' defense line.

Qianye took a look at the surrounding terrain, pointed to the area with the densest concentration of mountain crocodiles, and said, "Try firing a few shots at this place."

This move would risk angering the entire mountain crocodile group, so Duan Hao and the others have not done it. But since it was Qianye's order, it wasn't a problem. The messenger quickly ran to the nearby fire point. A moment later, the heavy artillery roared, and the shells continuously landed where the mountain crocodiles gathered.

Several mountain crocodiles were blown off the mountain wall, but after they plummeted nearly a hundred meters and hit the ground heavily, they actually staggered and slowly got up again. Except for a few unlucky ones that were directly hit by heavy artillery, nothing happened to the other mountain crocodiles in the aftermath.

There was a commotion among the crocodiles. The mountain crocodiles in the area covered by the heavy artillery seemed to have sensed the attack. They all turned around and had the intention of moving towards Qianye's position. When they move, they are like the first waves in the sea, slowly spreading out and starting to affect the surrounding crocodiles.

"Cease fire!" Qianye gave the order again.

The heavy artillery stopped roaring, and the mountain crocodiles suddenly lost their target, and the direction of movement began to become confusing. After a while, the crocodile group slowly calmed down, and several dead crocodile bodies were eaten among them.

It seems that these mountain crocodiles are not very intelligent, but they are still very sensitive to external attacks. If they fire a few more shots, I am afraid that the entire crocodile group will attack the dark fire position.

Qianye thought for a while and said: "Stay here and keep an eye on the werewolves in the pass. Don't let them rush out under any circumstances."

"What about you?"

"I'm going to see that Viscount Brudo."

Now that Qianye had made his decision, he did not stay any longer. He left his motorcycle at the dark fire position and entered the steep mountain forest alone.

The mountainous terrain is no obstacle to Qianye, and his Anduya space carries enough supplies, especially various grenades. The battle in the mine allowed Qianye to see the tremendous power of Force grenades when a single soldier raided them, so grenades became his first replenishment of ammunition.

Qianye sprinted through the mountain forest and went straight to the pass, preparing to climb to the top of the cliff on the west side, bypass the barrier blocking the pass, and directly enter the werewolf territory.

As he ran, he suddenly stopped, and a huge and agile black shadow jumped out from the fallen leaves in front of him. It was a mountain crocodile, with its long mouth wide open, and it bit hard. However, because Qianye stopped suddenly, his move was of course in vain.

From up close, the mountain crocodile is indeed a giant, with a body length of more than five meters, and the scales on its back are as hard as rocks. The most dangerous thing is that it is as agile as a mountain wolf despite its huge size. After it flew into the air, its bite hit a big tree behind Qianye. Suddenly, bark and wood chips flew into the air, and a large gap with a deep radius appeared.

Qianye took a step to the side, turned his body half a circle, and stepped on the back of the mountain crocodile. At the same time, his crimson teeth were as fast as lightning and penetrated deeply into the joint between its head and neck. This is the critical part of the mountain crocodile. Although the scales are hard, they cannot block the crimson teeth, which are level five. Qianye inserted the knife easily and pushed it until it had no handle.

In the blink of an eye, a large amount of essence and blood poured out from the Crimson Fang. This level three mountain crocodile could provide even more essence and blood than a level five dark race warrior. Qianye stood up from the body of the mountain crocodile and continued to move forward. Before going far, he killed another mountain crocodile that wanted to ambush.

Now Qianye finally knows why Dark Fire's scouts dare not go deep into the southwest forest. Although these mountain crocodiles are not too high in level, they have both strength and agility, and their lethality far exceeds the average ferocious beasts in the Evernight Wasteland.

On a short journey of a few hundred meters, Qianye killed more than a dozen mountain crocodiles in one go. After killing a ten-meter-long crocodile, he finally stopped moving forward and left the range of the mountain crocodile first.

Qianye found a quiet place to calm down his surging blood. The amount of blood essence and blood of these ferocious beasts is several times that of the dark race warriors at the same level. He only killed a dozen mountain crocodiles, and he only had less than half of the blood essence and blood in his body.

However, this situation is absolutely abnormal. A small group of ferocious beasts such as mountain crocodiles need a vast mountainous area as a hunting ground, otherwise their feeding needs will completely destroy the biological system of the entire area. Now there are so many people gathered in the area that Qianye can see. It is definitely not a natural formation. There must be a reason behind it.

Qianye practiced Xuanpian silently, converted part of his blood essence, and then continued walking in the direction of the werewolf tribe.

However, he didn't go far when he discovered that these mountain crocodiles had extremely keen senses and could detect traces of people moving from a long distance away. Unless Qianye consumes a lot of force power to remain hidden throughout the entire journey, it will be almost impossible to cross this mountainous area without alerting them.

Qianye thought for a moment before deciding to kill him. Originally, the mountain crocodile was a hunter in the mountain forest, but in front of Qianye, who had the Eye of True Sight, the mountain crocodile lost its hidden advantage and became an outright prey.

Next, Qianye killed mountain crocodiles all the way until the essence and blood in his body was about to overflow, and then he found a place to practice the Xuanpian technique with great concentration, converting the essence and blood into dark force bit by bit, nourishing the blood in his body. When the essence and blood were almost digested, he would go back on the road, continue hunting, and then find a place to practice when the essence and blood was overflowing.

As the process continues over and over again, with sufficient supply of essence and blood, the cover of the Black Book is almost completely lit, and it will not take long before it can be opened again. And most of the feathers on the original wings have condensed. In addition, the three types of blood have different progress, and the dark gold blood is about to usher in its third evolution.

When Qianye moved forward again, he found that the mountain crocodiles had become much sparse, which meant that they were about to leave their control area. He climbed to the top of a cliff and looked down. He had reached the other end of the natural pass. Behind the mountains were undulating hills, full of lush trees. Halfway up the mountain, there were even two small lakes, as clear as mirror.

The scenery on the distant mountain peaks seemed a little different. Qianye put his extraordinary vision to the farthest point and saw clearly that it was a castle with a rough shape and a rather grand scale. The large gray wall stones were undecorated. From a distance, It almost blends into the weathered rock face of Shifeng.

A flag with three claw marks flew from the top of the castle. This is the emblem of the werewolf Viscount Brudo, and the claw marks symbolize his understanding of the ancient werewolf tradition, which is speed, strength and destruction.

The foot of the rocky peak is covered with a stretch of forest, extending into the distance, and then crossing a natural rift valley is another beautiful peak. There is Qingfeng Mountain, the territory of the Fengya tribe, and the location of the mineral vein node speculated by Zhao Yuying. .

At this moment, Qianye is standing high and can overlook the pass. The werewolves also built a fortress here, blocking the end of the passage. There are some wooden houses and tents scattered nearby. Judging from the number and scale, Brudo has deployed at least hundreds of elite werewolf warriors here. This is almost half of the Viscount's combat strength.

Qianye’s eyes didn’t stay at the pass for long, and then fell on the castle in the distance. As long as Brudo is subdued or killed, the viscounty's defense line will collapse on its own.

Werewolf castles are mostly built on rocky peaks. They are basically made of large rocks and look very solid. However, werewolves admire nature, and many tribes do not even like to use weapons in battle. Castles are rarely equipped with force arrays and city defense equipment. Therefore, compared with other races, both decoration and function are quite primitive and rough.

It would undoubtedly be much easier to raid such a castle, as you only need to deal with werewolf warriors.

Qianye took out a big bag from the Anduya space and began to prepare for the war. He placed the standard saber, crimson fang, twin flowers, physical force bombs, and some gadgets used for climbing or sneaking on his body, and adjusted them to the most convenient position. Finally, he took out a bottle of potion and sprayed it all over his body.

This is specially designed to deal with the sensitive sense of smell of werewolves. Werewolves will instinctively feel uncomfortable when they inhale this smell, thus ignoring other scents that are covered up. However, this discomfort is extremely mild and will not make the werewolves suspicious. The spray is effective for four hours, which is enough for a raid.

Qianye checked his equipment again before jumping off the cliff. Every time he landed more than ten meters, he would hang on the rocks and hover for a while, and then he would drop another dozen meters. Repeated several times, he would quietly fall to the ground and enter the forest, running towards the Viscount's castle in the distance.

Near the cliff, Qianye killed two more mountain crocodiles. It seemed that their control area had penetrated from the other side of the two screen-like cliffs to this side.

Although the number here was insignificant in comparison, Qianye still frowned. In the process of killing mountain crocodiles along the way, he had discovered that the ferocious beasts that should have been in the mountain forest were almost extinct, which was definitely not a good sign. When the most primitive ecological balance of the local area is destroyed, the next thing to be squeezed is likely to be the living space of intelligent creatures such as dark races and humans.

Qianye swung his crimson fangs and pierced the back of the neck of a leader-level mountain crocodile in front of him. Hot water continued to pour into his body, and the huge beast continued to struggle, and it was not until more than ten minutes that he completely stopped.

Qianye felt warm all over his body, his limbs and bones seemed to be overflowing with strength, and his heart was beating extremely powerfully. The blood essence and blood provided by this huge beast was equivalent to that of an ordinary baron.

This place is already deep in the forest. Qianye looked back at the location of the cliff he climbed down, estimated the distance to this side, then withdrew the crimson fang, continued forward, and soon disappeared into the forest. In the sparse shadow.

A faint mist suddenly appeared somewhere in the forest, and a vague figure walked out of it. Her whole body was blurry, and her face could not be seen clearly. She could only tell that it was a woman from the outline of her graceful figure.

She stopped next to the body of a mountain crocodile, slowly leaned over, sniffed the wound gently, and then covered the wound with her hand.
