Chapter 150: Rare Lizardman Race, Hunting Squad's Hunt
On the shore of a clear lake.
The breeze created ripples on the lake and the campfire flickered.
With the cover of night.
Three tall lizardmen dived into the water from the other side of the lake, following the current, and swam silently towards the other shore of the lake.
The dark green scaly skin on its back glides across the lake, blending completely into the lake surface under the night sky.
at the same time!
In addition to the three lizardmen that entered the lake, lizardmen also appeared in three other locations at the same time, with a minimum of three and a maximum of five, for a total of 16 lizardmen.
From all directions, they surrounded the campfire by the lake in a slow and silent hunting movement.
"Guji!"
The cry of a feathered bird sounded in the night.
This is a bird that likes to prey on fish. It is one of the most hated birds by the Lizardmen, and it is also the most numerous bird around the lake.
Therefore, the calls of this kind of birds, mixed with the calls of birds coming from other directions in the night, are not conspicuous.
It is located directly in front of the campfire at the lake, about one hundred and fifty meters away.
The four-limbed lizardman was crawling under the grass, looking sharply at the human figure beside the campfire through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the bushes in front of him.
"Boss, they are all in place." The lizardman carrying a bow and arrow lowered his voice and spoke softly to the hunting leader beside him.
"Tell them not to act rashly and wait for my order." The hunting lizard man reminded with a serious yet excited look.
This was his first time hunting humans! He was probably the only one among all the tribe's hunting chiefs.
Even if the opponent is a magic caster, he is confident that he can defeat him.
The strongest magic caster he had ever seen was the tribe's priest elder. It was natural that he could not defeat the magic caster with his bare hands, but if he used weapons, he would definitely win in close combat.
It is said that there are stronger priests in other tribes. To the Lizardmen Hunters, this is most likely just bragging by the Lizardmen from other tribes.
not to mention.
In order to capture this human alive, they dispatched all 16 members of the hunting squad! "Guji." The lizardman carrying a bow and arrow nodded, pinched his throat, made a bird cry, and then whispered: "Boss, when do we start?"
This is not hunting ordinary wild beasts, but rare humans. If they can be captured alive, it will definitely cause a sensation in the tribe.
No! I'm afraid the other four tribes could also cause a sensation.
"The opponent is a magic caster, and he might have mastered some kind of warning magic. And the wolf-like monster next to him is also quite troublesome."
"When it's almost dawn, that should be when humans and the monster are most relaxed."
Although the beast-hunting lizardman was a little excited, he also knew it.
The human opposite dares to appear in the wetlands alone, so he must be quite powerful, so we must be cautious.
shore.
Tang Zheng grilled a five-pound fish that looked a bit like a grass carp on the campfire. A faint aroma began to waft as the surface gradually turned brown.
The evil dog lay beside Tang Zheng, sniffed, glanced at the grass carp on the campfire, then retracted its gaze and turned its head away.
It knew that it had no share of the fish.
"No wonder the lizardmen like to eat fish. The fish in this lake tastes really good."
Tang Zheng was looking at the almost cooked grilled fish. He flipped his palm, took out salt and chili powder, and sprinkled them on the surface of the cooked fish.
These were the spices he bought when he left the royal capital. He only bought three kinds, in addition to the most common salt, there were also sugar and chili powder.
Salt is relatively cheap, but sugar and chili powder are very expensive, calculated in silver coins. It is said that there are other kinds of spices, but they are not sold in the store.
Tang Zheng knew that there was a kind of magic in the other world that was specifically used to make spices, but obviously, he would not waste his skill points on such a thing.
[Experience slot: 132725/70000]
Glancing at the experience value on the attribute panel.
In less than two days, I gained about 5,000 experience points. Although the level of the monsters in the Lower Lake area was not high, there were many of them.
pity!
After some of them were cleaned up, these monsters knew they couldn't afford to offend them and started hiding.
"The Lizardmen should have taken some action as well, but I don't know which tribe they are from."
Tang Zheng looked at the grilled fish that was sprinkled with salt and pepper and became more fragrant. A look of satisfaction appeared on his face, and then he spoke softly.
The entire lower lake area of the wetlands is considered the territory of the Lizardmen, but the number of Lizardmen is too small and they are scattered throughout the wetlands, so it is still difficult to find them.
He remembers.
The future Bone King sent a 5,000-man army of ordinary undead to fight the Lizardmen.
As a result, the five tribes of lizardmen sent a total of only about 1,300 troops, including female lizardmen who could fight, and even if the elderly, the weak and the disabled were added to make up the number.
Tang Zheng speculated that the total population of the five lizardman tribes was at most more than 2,000 people, which means there were only 400 people in each tribe.
The lower lake area of the entire wetland is much larger, so it is not an easy task to find this group of lizardmen.
Tang Zheng was still very interested in this group of lizardmen, such as their four great treasures, magic technology and so on.
The smell of grilled fish spread in the night breeze.
The lizardmen hiding in the dark couldn't help swallowing their saliva. Although they had mastered the technique of making fire, they preferred to eat raw food.
Now, suddenly smelling the grilled fish with added spices, many lizardmen became a little agitated.
but!
In order not to disturb the human, all the lizardmen could only wait silently.
The night grows darker.
The flames of the bonfire on the lake shore also began to gradually dim, and then went out completely.
The entire hunting squad of lizardmen still did not make any moves, and everyone was waiting for the hunting leader's order.
Time passes by little by little.
A hint of white appeared in the eastern sky.
The hunting lizardman crawling in the grass was startled and cast his sharp eyes towards the lizardman carrying a bow and arrow beside him.
"Guji."
The archer lizardman immediately pinched his throat and made a bird-like sound.
In an instant, all the lizardmen moved.
The first to take action were the three lizardmen who had been staying in the lake. They popped their heads out of the lake and quickly locked onto Tang Zheng and the evil dog on the shore.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The three lizardmen simultaneously raised their harpoon-like weapons and threw them at Tang Zheng with great force, with rapid sounds of breaking through the air.
shore.
The evil dog lying beside Tang Zheng moved its ears, raised its head abruptly and stood up to block Tang Zheng from behind, and saw the harpoon thrown from the lake.
"roar."
The evil dog showed its sharp and ferocious teeth, and the chains on its body moved immediately and popped out quickly, shooting down the three harpoons shot from mid-air.
"The three of us will hold this monster back!"
The three lizardmen in the lake saw this scene and were not surprised at all. They roared and rushed to the shore.
The three of them were originally trying to deal with this monster, so they took the initiative to make noise and launch an attack.
Almost at the moment when the evil dog left Tang Zheng, the sound of breaking air was heard again in the air.
Arrows flew out from three directions and shot towards Tang Zheng in unison.
“It’s really a good time to pick.”
Tang Zheng sat cross-legged on the ground and yawned, then glanced calmly at the dozen or so lizardmen that emerged from three directions.
A scroll appeared in the palm of his hand and he pinched it casually.
The light condenses!
A flaming archangel appeared out of nowhere, spread its wide wings and stood in front of Tang Zheng.
All the arrows shot at him hit the bright armor of the Archangel of Fire, making a "ding-dong" sound, and were all blocked.
The thirteen lizardmen who were rushing over from three directions were shocked when they saw the arrows being blocked so easily.
"Use the grappling hook!" a loud shout came from the Lizardmen.
Whoosh! Whoosh! One by one, hooks and ropes flew over and easily caught the body of the Flame Archangel. The ropes quickly tightened.
"Magic casters are indeed dangerous!"
"But we have the advantage in numbers. Daben, Ajie, your two teams lead the people to hold back the summoned creature, and I will deal with the caster."
The hunting lizard man roared and quickly moved forward with the axe in both hands.
Follow his plan!
The three lizardmen in the lake dragged the monster next to the human, then used a grappling hook to hook the opponent's summoned creature and forcibly pulled it away from the human.
This way, the fragile human magic caster would be exposed to him, and the battle could be resolved as long as he could get close to them quickly.
Even if other accidents occur, they can be compensated by taking advantage of numbers!
In the eyes of the hunting lizardmen, this hunt was destined for their victory from the very beginning. It was simply a matter of how to capture humans alive and reduce the possibility of their companions getting hurt.
And everything in front of us is going exactly according to plan!
However! The hunter lizardman had just rushed out for a distance, and before the excitement of victory in his eyes had faded, a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
The rope around the Flame Archangel had clearly been stretched straight, but the Flame Archangel showed no signs of being pulled.
"How come?"
The hunting lizardman was a little shocked, because those companions who were pulling the rope were the strongest members of the hunting team.
Sudden!
The Fire Archangel flapped his wings behind him and soared into the sky. The several lizardmen who were pulling the ropes had no time to resist and were easily pulled into the sky.
"ah!"
"ah!"
Screams were heard from the air, and then several lizardmen fell from mid-air and hit the ground heavily with a dull thud.
The sudden change made the air quiet! "Ah——"
The quiet atmosphere was broken again by screams of pain. This time, the screams came not from the lizardmen on the ground, but from the three lizardmen who were hunting the evil dogs on the shore.
This monster, which looked not as strong as the female lizardmen, easily tore off the arm of one of their companions.
The series of unexpected situations made everyone present a little confused.
