Chapter 440: The Advancing Scutosaurus

Accompanied by the rumbling sound of footsteps, the huge weight of the Scutosaurus made every step it took leave a deep footprint on the ground.

Hearing the noise coming from afar, the patrol team that was performing patrol and alert duties on the periphery soon discovered the existence of the Ankylosaurus and immediately changed their expressions.

"What the hell, what kind of monster is this?!"

The veterans who had already had experience fighting against the Lizardmen last year had all witnessed the existence of the behemoth Ankylosaur among the large Lizardmen forces at that time.

Those that have not been seen are basically new recruits recruited later, and they are also the main component of their current military strength.

"Hurry! Send the signal!"

Upon receiving the order, a soldier in the patrol team hurriedly took off the horn hanging around his waist and blew it hard.

Upon hearing the signal, Silk, who was also leading a patrol nearby, immediately gave the order...

"Send the signal for response, everyone follow me!"

The signal from Silk and his men not only told the patrol team ahead, "We are coming," but also told the troops behind them, "We have passed by, and you do not need to take any action for the time being."

After all, there were many places in this area where they needed to patrol and defend. If they sent a signal, all their forces would gather there immediately. What if other places were attacked by the enemy during this process? The signal sent by Silk was to avoid this situation.

After the signal was sent, the elf knights rushed to the scene as quickly as possible.

Seeing the armored dragon moving slowly with heavy steps from afar, the faces of the elven knights led by Silk all darkened.

Although they had never actually fought against this ankylosaur, the difficulty of this big guy was clearly visible to the naked eye.

"Are there any other Lizardmen troops nearby?"

After successfully joining the patrol team here, Silk quickly scanned the surroundings while asking questions.

During this period, the team leader Li Tie, who received the question, also quickly replied...

"Report to the lieutenant, no trace of other Lizardmen troops has been found yet!"

Thanks to the results of the previous reconnaissance mission, both Silk and Drogo were promoted from warrant officers to second lieutenants.

Judging from the internal structure of the troops, although he is not Li Tie's direct superior, in this case, Li Tie also has the responsibility to report to him and answer questions.

After briefly understanding the situation, Silk nodded and looked up at the pterosaur rider hovering in the air.

[There is no trace of a lizardman on this big guy. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be this pterosaur rider who is leading the way for this big guy.]

As his thoughts raced, Silk signaled one of his subordinates to go back and report the situation here.

He himself signaled Li Tie to bring his patrol team to cooperate with him to confirm the surroundings again.

The news was quickly delivered to Li Ce. Long before that, he had vaguely guessed that the lizardmen might do something.

After all, it is impossible for the other party to just watch them grow stronger. Normally speaking, they will at least launch some harassment actions to hinder them.

It turned out that his guess was not wrong, and the harassment from the other side had already begun.

"Captain Zhou, I'll leave this to you. Pay attention to patrols and alerts in other areas. Don't let the lizardmen take advantage of our loopholes. For follow-up actions, pay attention to my signals."

As he was speaking, Li Ce simply handed over the task of deploying defenses and alerts to Zhou Chongshan, and then took a cavalry team and rushed to meet up with Silk and the others as quickly as possible.

In the plain area with basically no shelter, it is very easy to find them once you know the direction.

Before he got close enough, Li Ce had already locked onto the moving Ankylosaurus from a long distance away.

During this time, Silk and Li Tie, who had just completed a patrol in the surrounding area, quickly ran to Li Ce to meet up and report.

"Lieutenant, we have patrolled the surrounding area and found no other lizardmen. We can be almost certain that it is the pterosaur rider in the air who is leading this big guy."

Listening to Silk's conclusion, Li Ce nodded.

His sight swept over the Ankylosaurus and then the Pterosaur rider in the air.

"Looking at the direction, this big guy's target should be our camp."

To a certain extent, the opponent really hit their weak spot.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just the supplies they have stored in the camp, if they are destroyed, it will undoubtedly make their lives very difficult.

They may even be forced to evacuate.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Considering this risk, a question soon came to Li Ce's mind.

How to stop this big guy? Although this big guy is no secret to them, its existence itself makes them feel that they have no idea where to start. They have never faced such a huge enemy.

"Try attacking with a bow and arrow first."

They currently know too little about that big guy, so Li Ce plans to launch a test attack first and collect some intelligence at the same time.

After receiving the order, the cavalry squads led by Silk and Li Tie immediately split into two groups, approaching the armored dragon from the left and right.

The distance between the two cavalry teams continued to widen, in preparation for the pulling tactics that might be needed later.

During this period, the Ankylosaurus undoubtedly discovered their presence. In fact, the Ankylosaurus should have noticed them a long time ago, but it did not seem to have a strong sense of autonomy. Without receiving any orders, it completely ignored their existence and continued to advance.

But Silke and Li Tie's actions will not stop because of this.

After reaching the position, the cavalry team led by Li Tie drew their bows quickly, and a volley of shots with sharp sounds of breaking through the air flew directly towards the armored dragon.

However, this round of attacks, which was quite powerful, completely failed to achieve the effect they wanted.

The moment the arrows hit the Ankylosaurus, they were all bounced away by the opponent's thick shell, demonstrating its extremely powerful defensive capabilities.

Even though he had prepared himself mentally, Li Ce, who witnessed the result with his own eyes, still felt a sense of pressure in his heart.

Ordinary arrows can't even penetrate armor, which means they won't be able to easily consume the enemy.

At the same time, it also made him completely understand why the other party sent out this big guy alone.

The group of lizardmen on the opposite side realized that they had no way to deal with this big guy, and in the end they could not escape the fate that their front-line camp would be flattened step by step by this big guy!
