Chapter 198 Beasts Under the Cover of
Night After dark, it was basically pitch dark in the wild, but torches and fires had been lit in various places in their village to maintain a certain degree of visibility.
But even so, the sentry standing on the hilltop watchtower could not see far even though he looked around.
But it was a quiet night after all. The beast was huge and heavy, and the sound made by its four broad paws stepping on the snow could not be concealed at all.
The movement here soon attracted the attention of the night watchman. Looking closely, he immediately found the pair of eyes emitting green light in the night.
At this moment, the night watchman did not seem overly nervous.
In this era, it is normal for some nocturnal wild animals to appear nearby at night.
This kind of thing often happens to them seven or eight times a night.
If he found a pair of green eyes, he would immediately sound the alarm. Then, everyone in the tribe would have to stay awake all night and just listen to the alarm bells ringing.
With this mentality, the night watchman held his breath, opened his eyes wide, and carefully identified the appearance of the beast.
Until that thick front leg stepped into the fire!
There was no need to look further. Just from the thickness of the forelimbs, he could tell that the beast must be a huge and ferocious beast.
Without time to think, the night watchman quickly picked up the hammer at hand and quickly struck the bronze bell next to him.
The sound of the bronze bell quickly spread throughout the entire village. Zhou Xu, who was sleeping soundly at the time, was suddenly awakened. Without time to think, he quickly put on his clothes and rushed out of the house.
By this time, everyone has woken up.
Just as he ran out of the house, people were still in the residential area. From a long distance away, he heard an angry roar, which completely shattered the tranquility of the night and also startled everyone led by Zhou Xu.
Needless to say, the roar clearly told them that wild beasts had attacked their camp.
At the same time, this kind of movement is not something that any small wild animal can do.
Zhou Xu had just thought about this when the other party's figure had already entered his field of vision.
The ferocious and fierce posture, as well as the two sharp teeth on its mouth that looked like sword blades, needless to say, it was the saber-toothed tiger that they had met several times before on the grassland! They hadn't seen this saber-toothed tiger for some time.
Although it was night and the vision was not clear, Zhou Xu could still see that the saber-toothed tiger had obviously lost a lot of weight compared to before, and it was now a bit skin and bones.
The animals are all hiding this winter, and with the snowstorm just now, it is not easy to hunt at this time.
Anyone with eyes could see that the saber-toothed tiger was obviously starving.
And it was precisely because of this that they attacked their village without any regard. Under normal circumstances, the saber-toothed tiger would never approach this place.
[Skeleton Soldier Summons! ]
Once the mantra is activated, no matter what, call all the skeleton soldiers in the nearby area over first.
During this time, the saber-toothed tiger didn't seem to have any intention of confronting them head-on. It leaped over and ran in another direction.
Looking at that direction, Zhou Xu's face suddenly changed.
"The feeding ground! It's going to the feeding ground!"
Although the farm had not been rebuilt yet, the horses and bison in the camp definitely needed enough space to be accommodated. So while the snow was getting lighter, he took his men to build a shed near the ruins of the farm to temporarily accommodate the horses and bison.
Not to mention the bison, he had already lost some horses because of the previous snowstorm, and Zhou Xu had no intention of increasing this loss further.
The skeleton soldiers were still on their way, and the saber-toothed tiger was moving so fast that there was no way to intercept it at the moment.
At the critical moment, Zhou Chongshan bent his bow and drew his arrow without saying a word.
Right from the start, he displayed his unique skill of shooting arrows continuously. This was not taught to him by Zhou Xu, but something Zhou Chongshan figured out on his own while practicing archery.
The whole movement was as smooth as flowing water, and three arrows were shot at the saber-toothed tiger one after another.
The moving saber-toothed tiger undoubtedly noticed it, but the arrow was so fast that by the time it reacted, the arrow had already penetrated into its buttocks and back, accompanied by the burst of blood.
"roar!!!!"
The intense pain made the saber-toothed tiger roar again. The deafening roar made everyone present feel terrified.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Qiansui jumped out from the crowd, his hair exploded, his tail stood up high, and opened his mouth towards the saber-toothed tiger, roaring back! In Qiansui's view, the saber-toothed tiger's roar, when it heard it, was a naked provocation.
Since it can't stand it anymore in various senses, it will naturally jump out and fight back to prevent the other party from thinking that it is easy to bully.
Although he is not bad in momentum, Qiansui is less than one year old. Compared with the saber-toothed tiger, which is as big as a car, he has no deterrent power at all.
During this whole process, although the saber-toothed tiger was surprised by its existence, it did not take it seriously at all.
However, during this interruption, the skeleton soldiers who were in the camp at the time undoubtedly rushed over under the power of truth.
Leading the way were the fifteen hyena skeletons! [Controlled by the Skeleton Soldiers!]
[Skeleton soldiers strengthened! ]
[Skeleton soldier control is enhanced! ]
[Skeleton soldiers' speed is enhanced! ]
A series of truths kept coming out of Zhou Xu's mouth. In order to protect his cavalry mount, Zhou Xu really went all out from the start!
Any ordinary primitive tribe could basically be slaughtered by his combination of punches, assisted by a skeleton army led by fifteen hyena skeletons!
But this time the situation is different.
The saber-toothed tiger's explosive power is too rapid, and its physical fitness in all aspects is superior to that of the hyena skeleton.
Faced with the hyena skeletons trying to intercept it, the saber-toothed tiger burst out and broke through the blockade formed by them in the most brutal manner. Relying on the speed of the hyena skeletons, they could not catch up with it at all.
During this period, it was Zhou Chongshan who never stopped after he opened his bow. His continuous attacks made it very annoyed.
A hungry beast would naturally be more irritable than usual, and in this case, the stimulation of pain would make it even more crazy.
All of a sudden, the pair of eyes that glowed green in the darkness began to become bloodshot.
Then there was a roar, and the saber-toothed tiger, which was obviously a little overwhelmed by anger, rushed directly towards Zhou Chongshan! (End of this chapter)
