Chapter 31: The Little Devil is Difficult to Deal With
When Zhang Yang used up his mana to make ten wolf-tooth arrows, Qin Yidao and ten other elite archers were finally promoted to captain-level archers.
The affinity was not triggered. It seems that Wu Yuan can sometimes guess wrong.
But that doesn't matter, because it is true that the archer, whose combat effectiveness has always been only supporting, finally broke out after being promoted to the captain level.
It is indeed a more technically advanced branch of the military.
At this time, the bodies of Qin Yidao and others had all grown to two meters in height. Their arms were extremely strong, reaching above their knees. They looked like archers.
As for attributes, except for the soul which is E-, the rest are D+, which is very uniform.
Archery proficiency has increased from 245 to 355. There is no talent, but there are two skills, neither of which is ordinary.
One is the wind-chasing arrow, which does not describe how fast it is, but its ability to catch up with fast-moving targets and never miss a target.
One is the armor-piercing arrow, which is a skill specifically used to break defense.
As for weapons, that's a bit embarrassing.
You know, every archer recruited comes with 35 feather arrows, and they cannot be replenished once they are used up.
So the ten people including Qin Yidao don’t have any feather arrows in their hands now, which naturally means they have wasted the opportunity for strengthening, the captain-level strengthening.
However, the longbows in their hands were different. At first, it was just an ordinary longbow. After being strengthened once, it became an iron-framed longbow. After the third strengthening, it became a captain-level longbow.
Very cruel.
This thing is about 1.80 meters long, the bow arm is very heavy and as hard as steel, and the bowstring is thicker than a thumb. Just placing it there has a breathtaking aura.
Zhang Yang, now as the power of E-, went forward to try, but he was so embarrassed that he couldn't even pull it open. Qin Yidao on the side even explained with a grin: "Village chief, this is a strong bow with 300 force. It can't be pulled open without 5,000 kilograms of force. Otherwise, I'll shoot an arrow for you to try?"
Obviously, he was attracted by the wolf-tooth arrows that Zhang Yang had just made. In fact, not only him, but everyone else's eyes were shining. After all, as captain-level archers, it would be pitiful for them to have the ability to shoot eagles but no feather arrows to match.
"Stop talking nonsense. For now, I will give you ten matching wolf-tooth arrows, one for each of you. From now on, you will hide in the small fort. The enemy may appear at any time. When the time comes, it will depend on whether you have the ability to shoot them."
Zhang Yang snorted coldly, but he was actually very satisfied and finally felt relieved. In fact, he could have promoted ten sword and shield soldiers or spearmen before, all of whom were captain-level and would not be bad in strength.
But he just felt that this time the enemy was mysterious and unknown, and he didn't even know what tactics they used, so he had to be cautious and not fight recklessly. With ten captain-level archers, they were in a dominant position and had the advantage of terrain, so they would definitely be invincible.
Next, Zhang Yang continued to activate the soul force field and decompose the demonic power from the wolf demon's blood. Now that he had the green wolf spirit, it would be much easier to decompose and capture the demonic power.
It's a pity that the Blue Wolf is only a level 1 monster, its level is too low, and the demonic power contained in its blood is too little. If he had known this, he should have tried the Red Eagle's blood at the beginning yesterday. After all, it is a level 5 monster, and the demonic power contained in its blood is more.
Of course, the difficulty must be very high.
After three hours, even with the Green Wolf Spirit, Zhang Yang was only able to decompose 0.03 units of mana and successfully made 30 wolf-tooth arrows. At this time, the village ghost frantically warned him.
"Village chief, it's bad. The enemy is here again. There are at least five little devils, no, six. They want to kill me. They knew I was hiding here from the beginning."
Then there was no news about the little ghost. He was not killed, but hid directly in the Wood Demon Tower.
But it was still very quiet outside at this time. Within the village, the second-level vision was fully open, but no enemy appeared.
"Sound the horn, inform Wu Yuan and the others to retreat!"
Zhang Yang first ordered the soldiers to knock on the iron shields, and at the same time sent people to the training ground, where there were fifty new recruits who had to be withdrawn here quickly.
As soon as he gave the order, Zhang Yang saw Wu Yuan and his group running back in a panic. It was obvious that they had come into contact with the enemy, and some of them were injured.
"What's going on?"
Suppressing his anxiety, Zhang Yang looked into the distance, but the forest was filled with towering ancient trees and he could not see anything.
"Village chief, the enemy has archers, and they are captain-level. Song Dachui is injured and hit by five arrows, but it is not fatal." Liu Dali suddenly shouted. He has the best eyesight and can see clearly from a kilometer away.
At this time Zhang Yang looked carefully again, and sure enough, Wu Yuan and his group, with Wu Yuan, Wang Mumu and Duan Kuan as the rear guard, Wu Yuan kept waving his spear and hitting something, while Wang Mumu and Duan Kuan were holding shields on both sides to provide cover.
But there is still no sign of the enemy in the distance, which means that the enemy's archers' shooting range is at least over 400 meters.
"Village Chief, how about we go and pick them up?"
Qin Yidao then asked for a fight.
"No, you keep hiding, they won't die yet." Zhang Yang frowned, but kept staring at the condition of Wu Yuan and others on the village construction order. In just a short period of time, four of them had been shot by arrows. Song Dachui was the most seriously injured, but he was able to retreat into the range of the Wood Demon Tower alive.
Among the others who were shot by arrows, even Wu Yuan was included.
One arrow took away one-fifth of his health.
"This is the weakness of not having armor. Otherwise, the four-man Violent Bear Group would be able to charge in and kill us!"
Zhang Yang secretly hated the Violent Bear group in his heart. They were very strong, but except for a fur apron, they were all shirtless. Facing the opponent's captain-level archer, they were simply courting death.
Finally, Wu Yuan and his group retreated into the range of the Wood Demon Tower. Zhang Yang immediately activated the fog of war. This thing was very expensive, consuming 100 energy points per minute, but it could reduce the enemy's vision by two-thirds.
In an instant, balls of green mist rose up, covering an area of one hundred meters. At this moment, eight figures appeared more than four hundred meters away, but they did not seem to be human.
"They have human-like limbs and a wolf head on their necks. They hold large bows similar to ours. There are six archers in total, two of whom hold shields, but they should all be captains. Village chief, are there only so many enemies? Something seems wrong."
At this time Liu Dali gave Zhang Yang a detailed description.
"hateful!"
Zhang Yang cursed angrily, and suddenly understood.
"Either this is the enemy's vanguard, and the main force is still behind, but that's basically impossible. If this werewolf village can send out fifteen captain-level soldiers at once, then why would we play any tricks? We can just surround them and attack them directly."
"If not, then there is only the second possibility. The mysterious enemy cannot mobilize a large force at once, so it sent out six captain-level archers and two captain-level infantrymen to block my village. They have a long enough range and strong enough lethality. I don't have long-range weapons to suppress them, so they can comfortably block my village until the mysterious enemy has time to mobilize a large force."
As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Yang's face lit up with ferocity.
"Go out and shoot them!"
"Village chief, don't we need to use the cover of the fog to ambush them from behind?" Qin Yidao asked. They now have the advantage of time, place and people. If they shoot at each other, there will inevitably be casualties, and it will be difficult to completely wipe out the enemy.
"You're just a bunch of idiots. The enemy has some minions underground and they're well prepared. The fog of war can't hide you. And if there's a trick, we can quickly retreat to the fortress."
Zhang Yang cursed, grabbed the last Spear of Confinement and rushed out. He had a premonition that the mysterious enemy he encountered this time might be more cautious and more difficult to deal with than the deer monster. So if he didn't kill the opponent by surprise at this time, he probably wouldn't have another chance in the future.
