MTL - Lord Highlander-Chapter 77 76. Iguana

   Chapter 77 76. Iguana

  The task of the second team is to detect the movement of the evil spirits in Motianling, and also to find a suitable camping place for the large troops at the foot of the mountain, so as to avoid encountering evil spirits with the infantry regiment who opened up the forest road.

  Baron Sidney divided the areas of each patrol team in detail on a simple parchment map.

The defense area of ​​the Surdak team responsible for investigation and monitoring is located on the southwest side of Motianling. It is less than five kilometers away from the large troops of the fourth brigade who opened up the forest road. However, the ravines and valley roads in the mountains and forests make this mountain road extremely difficult to walk. The fourth brigade opened up the forest road. When we were in Lindao, we wisely chose to avoid this complex area.

   It is impossible for the second team to run around like a headless chicken in this perilous forest area. Once they encounter evil spirits, they will not be able to escape.

The cinnamon branches and leaves have a pungent smell, which the evil spirits hate very much. This was discovered by a scout in Duke Ryan’s Busman Legion. Now it has been widely used by scouts, but this cinnamon branch Not easy to find.

It is rare to see a large-scale cinnamon forest in the woodland of Ganda Er Mountain. The soldiers of the second team were lucky this time. The soldier Augustus accidentally found a cinnamon tree when passing through a woodland. , So, almost everyone in the squad put on a layer of cinnamon branches as a camouflage.

  He Boqiang was lying in the grass on the slope, and two recruits were lying beside him, staring at the situation down the hillside with rounded eyes.

There is a not-so-wide exit under the slope. After investigation by the team members, it was found that this is the only way to enter Moyun Ridge in this area. Suldak decided that the second team would hide here to monitor the demons of Moyun Ridge. trend.

  Suldak divided the fighters into three groups.

  Suldak, He Boqiang and two recruits formed the first group.

  Red Sox, Beard, Augustus and a fellow soldier formed the second group.

  The remaining five fighters form the third group.

  The three teams will form a cross-surveillance network in this area. Although there are dense forests nearby, they are at the top of the **** and can still echo each other from a distance.

  A pine-crested iguana more than three meters long galloped through the grass at the bottom of the slope, and ran in the opposite direction of Moyunling.

The pine-crested iguana belongs to a rare low-level magical beast. It is best at the 'Stone Skin Technique', which not only makes it look like a rock, but also has a rocky texture even when it touches it. The iguana has great endurance and can hide in a crevice without eating or drinking for half a month, just like a big stone stuck in the crevice.

   This iguana is not aggressive, but its teeth are highly poisonous. It usually likes to hunt small forest animals for a living.

   Unexpectedly, this kind of meat-crested iguana, which is usually the best at camouflage and hiding, would also leave Moyunling at this time.

The lizard skin on the pine crested iguana is highly sought after by the small lords of the Green Empire. Therefore, this kind of gentle iguana, in the eyes of many adventure groups, is the kind of prey that is hard to come by. In the sight of the second team, there was quite a commotion among the second group of soldiers.

  Augustus on the hillside in the distance gestured to Suldak to apply for the hunting of the iguana.

Suldak thought about it seriously, and felt that this was a rare opportunity. He wanted to give it a go, so he left two recruits on the hillside to continue to let the wind go. After giving a warning in advance, he dragged He Boqiang to run down the hillside.

  The pine-crested iguana seems to have the ability to predict danger. As soon as there was a slight movement on the hillside, the iguana at the bottom of the hillside suddenly fled towards the rock pile hundreds of meters away. Regardless of its huge size, it is not clumsy at all when running. It is as stable as a land canoe when it throws off the four lizard legs. Every time it uses its feet, its body will suddenly jump forward.

  Suldak didn't expect the iguana to be so vigilant. When He Boqiang rushed to the bottom of the hillside, the iguana had already burrowed into the rocks.

  At this time, Augustus, Red Sox, and Beard also ran over from the other side of the hill. Everyone saw the iguana burrowing into the rock pile, and they gathered around the rock pile.

The red sock and the bearded man held alloy bows and guarded the east and west sides of the pile of rocks. As long as the pine-crowned iguana ran out of the pile of rocks, it would break into their range. The iguana is so big that it is impossible to avoid the shooting of two half-baked shooters.

   It was just that when everyone searched the pile of rocks inside and out, the most embarrassing thing happened. The monitor lizard was nowhere to be seen.

"Search…"

  Suldak spit on a boulder, and gave instructions to the four soldiers under him.

Augustus was the first to jump onto the boulder with Paglio's spear in his hand, and the spear in his hand pierced towards a boulder involuntarily. The raised rocks then cracked, but it wasn't the iguana. Augustus yelled: "Red socks, I should paint them, not this one..."

  That's right, once you can't find the pine-crested iguana mixed into the rock pile, the best way is to use the carpet method to eliminate the nearby rocks one by one.

  He Boqiang followed behind Suldak, and also pulled out the Roman sword from his waist, preparing to greet the boulder.

  But was stopped by Suldak, "You are crazy, how can the newly built Roman sword be used like this, do you need the blade, red socks, take out your logging ax..."

   "Captain, this is...!"

  The red sock pokes at the rocks like a bitter melon.

   "What else can it be, return to the barracks after the blade is broken, and then go to the logistics department to change it!"

  Suldak stared.

   "Yes, Captain!"

  Red Sock quickly puffed out his chest and agreed.

'boom…'

   'Bang bang...'

There are not many white granite rocks on this pile of rocks. Just hit a rock with an ax to verify whether it is a pine-crested iguana. Every rock that is smashed and cracked will be marked. After two quarters of an hour, nearly half of the rocks on the rubble were painted with carbon black as a mark.

Standing on two mottled rocks with mottled colors, He Boqiang rubbed his sore shoulders, and the wooden handle of the logging ax in his hand was cracked by the strong shock force. The blade of the ax was even more cracked. After He Boqiang was promoted, he hadn't fully adapted to the strength of his arms. Now he was trying his best to turn the ax, and the blades of the entire logging ax were completely piled up, making it look more like a leader now hammer.

As the logging ax in his hand hit a nearby boulder, He Boqiang suddenly felt that the boulder under his feet trembled slightly. After careful observation, a faint magical breath emanated through the rock. This was clearly the pine crest. Lizard, I just stepped on its head with one foot.

  At this moment, there is no trace of pattern on the body of the pine crested iguana. Except that the body is the same color as the surrounding rocks, even the mottled marks on the skin surface are exactly the same.

  Having made this discovery, He Boqiang was not too busy disturbing the iguana, but waved to the surroundings to get everyone in the second team to move closer to him.

  Augustus was the closest to He Boqiang, and he rushed over with a Paglio spear in his hand, and asked He Boqiang, "Little Duck, what's going on?"

  He Boqiang pointed to his feet, and Augustus discovered the unusual rocks under his feet.

Augustus raised his big spear with both hands high, and stabbed down on the rock under He Boqiang's feet with all his strength. Paglio's spear first splashed some sparks, and the rubble cracked, but there was flesh and blood inside the rock formation. Augustus's strength was limited, and this thorn just hit the back of the iguana. Although the tip of the spear was completely submerged in the iguana's body, it did not actually cause substantial damage to the iguana.

  The boulder under his feet suddenly turned over, and He Boqiang, who had stepped on the pine-crested monitor lizard, lost his balance and fell backwards.

  The monitor lizard's huge mouth full of fangs suddenly opened, and it bit down on He Boqiang's left foot, which was close at hand.

He Boqiang only felt the giant lizard rushing towards him. He didn't dare to hesitate, and threw the logging ax in his hand towards the monitor lizard. The giant ax directly hit the monitor lizard's mouth. Bite off, the huge head flicked violently, the handle of the ax was broken from it, and the big mouth opened towards He Boqiang again...
