Chapter 813 Uninvited Guests

Just here, when Zhou Xu was sleeping soundly due to exhaustion, outside the southern border of their Great Zhou, a group of figures were cautiously approaching the border line under the cover of night.

At this moment, no one knew what happened, their bodies froze, followed by a dull thud of their bodies falling heavily to the ground, and in the blink of an eye, they fell to the ground.

Such a scene in the pitch-dark night was indescribably weird.

After a while, when it was confirmed that the guys who fell to the ground were dead, the scene nearby became visibly distorted.

Then, a green figure with slender limbs and a pair of exaggeratedly protruding eyeballs, hanging there like two big light bulbs, slowly appeared. It was the Chameleon Lurker.

Chameleon Lurkers are physically fragile and have poor mobility. Their only advantage is their ability to mimic the environment. With this ability, they can achieve "invisibility" to a certain extent.

However, this 'invisibility' ability will basically be exposed as soon as you move. If you want to remain 'invisible', your body must remain still.

The Chameleon Lurker lacks mobility, and can even be said to lack the ability to move. It is not very effective even as an assassination unit, let alone in a frontal attack on the battlefield.

However, as a secret sentry for surveillance, it can produce good results.

The unaware enemy approached stealthily, thinking that he was not exposed, but he did not know that all his actions were seen by the 'invisible' Chameleon Lurker.

This is the advantage! Soros has made many deployments along the entire border in the south.

Now the value of his deployment has undoubtedly been demonstrated.

Before approaching the target corpse, the Chameleon Lurker first blew the bird whistle on his body, imitating the sound of a bird to send a signal to the nearest patrol team to come over.

The patrol team that received the signal arrived quickly. It was a team of green lizard short spearmen. They were swift and silent, and their large numbers made them the best choice for night patrols here.

When the patrol team arrived, they confirmed the target immediately.

It was the Ratmen! The group of figures that sneaked up on them in the middle of the night were the Ratmen that had not appeared for a long time!

The cause of their death was also very clear: they were assassinated by Chameleon Lurker's blowgun.

After quickly confirming the situation, the patrol team took the bodies of the ratmen and rushed back to report as quickly as possible.

It was two o'clock in the morning and Soros was sleeping soundly, but he was woken up by the news.

Soros didn't even have time to get annoyed. Realizing that something was wrong, he checked the bodies of the ratmen as quickly as possible.

"What the hell!"

Looking at the corpses, Soros couldn't help but curse.

[Didn't we kill all the ratmen at that time? After they escaped, they are now in large numbers again? ]

[No, even if we have grown to a certain size, it is impossible for us to become stronger than before in such a short time. Those stinky rats know our strength, so how could they come here to seek death? We should just stay as far away from them as possible.]

[According to this line of thought, these ratmen may come from other ratman clans...]

The ratmen themselves are a race that can reproduce in large numbers. Dozens of ratmen can multiply into hundreds or thousands in a short period of time.

As a race with such a strong reproductive ability, the lizardmen certainly would not think that there is only one Claw Clan.

[Has this ratman clan lived here for a long time, or did they just move here recently? ]

Soros obviously couldn't figure out this question at the moment.

But he didn't need to figure it out. He only needed to know one thing now, which was that they might have to go to war with the ratmen again.

After all, he knew very well what it meant when rat people appeared nearby in winter.

Now that the enemy's reconnaissance team has died near their border, the other side will soon notice it and there is no way to hide it.

"Pass my order to raise the alert level to level one."

After giving this order, Soros quickly called the pterosaur rider to pass on the message.

While it was necessary to quickly inform Bolevin of this news so that he could provide logistical support, it was also necessary to report to their Majesty.

Soros was destined to have no peace that night.

After something like this happened, even if you asked him to go back to sleep, he wouldn't be able to sleep, so he would just start thinking about the subsequent deployment of defenses.

After the Claw Clan was destroyed by them, their Lizardmen clan ended the war with the Claw Clan that had lasted for who knows how many years.

After a few years of peace, the comfortable life really made him a little confused. It was time to wake up.

Recalling past wars and thinking about the possible actions of the ratmen next, Soros's brain started to work at high speed.

In this state, the night passed quietly.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The next day, a troop of ratmen had moved nearby somewhere outside the southern border of their Great Zhou.

The situation in the southern border is rather special. Since large tracts of land have not yet been formally developed, this place is basically an empty shell.

This also led to the garrison troops on the border not daring to make any big moves outside. Even if they would conduct appropriate exploration outside the border, they would not go too far, and their main focus was to defend the border.

The location of this ratman army was obviously beyond the range of their daily patrol activities. Unless Soros suddenly ordered to expand the patrol range, they would not be discovered at all.

"Sir, one of the reconnaissance teams we sent out last night has not returned."

Upon hearing the report, a rat man with sparse hair on his head, exposed skin and flesh, and a slightly ugly and ferocious appearance, raised his eyelids.

The reconnaissance team sent out was composed of regular army soldiers of the rat people. They had a high status in the tribe and the probability of them deserting was very low.

If he hasn't come back, there's a high probability that something has happened.

[It seems that something happened to the Claw Clan. Were they destroyed by the Lizardmen? ]

The thought flashed through his mind, and the leader of the ratmen spoke quickly...

"Continue to send out teams to conduct reconnaissance and find out the identity of the other side."

They, the Corruption Clan and the Claw Clan, have always been neighbors.

Over the years, the two clans have maintained a safe distance, and no one has approached the other. This approach has allowed them to live in peace for many years.

However, such actions are not entirely due to their identity as a common ethnic group, but more because there are other threats on the other side of their respective territories.

Among them, the Claw Clan is facing the Lizardmen.

The Corrupt Clan knew that the Claw Clan had been fighting with the Lizardmen for years. Under this premise, how could the Claws dare to offend them?

When a situation like this occurs, we can only say that there is a high probability that the owner of the north has changed!

As for why the troops of the Corruption Clan appeared here at this point in time, it was because the threat had been resolved by them, and it was winter, a season of food shortage, which made the leader of the Corruption Clan think of annexing the Claw Clan, expanding the size of the clan while obtaining resources, and then looking for an opportunity to defeat the Lizardmen.

So, here they come! 　If nothing goes wrong, there will be more chapters after 10:30 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
