Chapter 331 Snowy
Night Zhou Chongshan's star level upgrade relieved Zhou Xuna's anxiety after learning of the heavy casualties on his side.
Ever since he was summoned, Zhou Xu discovered that upgrading his star level was not an easy task.
This fierce battle must have pushed Zhou Chongshan's physical strength and willpower to the limit, which successfully allowed his endurance and mental attributes to break through the two-star bottleneck and reach the three-star level.
It is a good thing that the star level can be upgraded, but the price of the upgrade is a bit painful, which makes Zhou Xu feel very conflicted at the moment.
After adjusting his mood, with Qiansui acting as a bodyguard and Zhou Chongshan giving the way, the group arrived at the destination smoothly.
After hearing the noise and seeing that it was a rescue team led by Zhou Xu, Li Ce, Ye Jinghong, Zhuo Ge and Silk were all cheered up.
Zhou Xu's arrival was like a shot of adrenaline for them, making them excited.
At this point in time, although the snow has not yet gotten heavier, considering the condition of their injured, if rescue is delayed, there is no guarantee that they will not die in this snowy night.
Now, this concern can be temporarily put aside.
"Quick! Load everyone onto the bullock cart and let's leave!"
Zhou Xuke didn't plan to stay here for too long. The temperature on the grassland would drop as the night deepened. It was still snowing at the moment, and there was no guarantee that the seriously injured soldiers would not get into trouble. It would be safest to rush back to the village as soon as possible.
During this time, when Silk saw him coming, he quickly ran up and grabbed him to question him.
"How is the village, our village?"
Looking at Silk's expression, Zhou Xu hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell the truth.
Anyway, this matter cannot be kept secret for long. If he doesn't tell him now, it might bring him into trouble.
"I don't know the exact situation, I just know that a large army of lizardmen attacked the village."
Silk was devastated when he heard the news, but he did not do anything out of control.
On the way here, he had actually learned some information from Zhou Chongshan. Looking at Silk's expression, he seemed to have faced the reality, which was a good thing for him.
"Anyway, you should go to our village to take shelter first. Otherwise, in this weather, if you stay outdoors, you will probably be in great danger."
As Zhou Xu spoke, he personally pulled Silk, who looked devastated, up from the ground and walked towards the ox cart nearby.
And Silk was like a walking corpse throughout the whole process, allowing Zhou Xu to put him on the ox cart.
Long before Zhou Xu and his rescue team arrived, Li Ce, Ye Jinghong and their team had already gathered all the personnel and horses together, providing a lot of convenience for their rescue team's work.
After everyone was settled, the group set out on their return journey.
By the time they arrived at the grassland village, it was almost midnight.
But this night, it was obvious that no one of them had time to sleep.
Long before setting off, Zhou Xu had already given orders in the village, asking them to boil hot water and prepare food in advance.
Now, on this snowy night, with the return of this group of wounded soldiers, the entire village has become completely busy.
At the same time, here is the Lizardman army.
After razing the elf village to the ground, the lizardman leader looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky. His body unconsciously tensed up a bit, and even his face became a little ugly.
The main living environment of the lizard people is the tropical rainforest.
When they first came here through the energy channel, it was late autumn, which was very different from the climate of their living environment, making them feel obviously uncomfortable.
Under this premise, the temperature difference between day and night on the grassland is large, which further aggravates the discomfort. This is also the main reason why although they had night vision before, they did not like to take action after dark.
Of course, the lizard people are still physically strong, so nothing serious will happen in a short period of time.
With this as a premise, the Lizardman leader originally wanted to end the battle quickly. In fact, their actions were already relatively fast. Who would have thought that the climate here would get colder even faster.
For those who are not naturally adapted to cold climates, if the temperature drops further, the risks they have to bear will increase dramatically.
Want to gamble? Bet that the climate here won't get colder? He didn't dare to gamble with so many lizardmen and his own life.
If they make a wrong bet, they might all die in this cold winter, which would be the most worthless way to die.
He would rather die on the battlefield than die in such a meaningless way.
His eyes swept across the elf village that had basically turned into ruins...
[This trip has yielded some results, and the High Priest can give an explanation. As for the rest, let's wait until the weather warms up here. ]
Thinking of this, the lizardman leader gave the order in a deep voice.
"Pass the order down, retreat to the edge of the world as quickly as possible!"
During the previous attack on the elven village, the lizardmen soldiers in the large army had basically been resting on the spot, and now they had recovered some of their strength.
At this moment, facing this order from the Lizardman leader, although the Lizardmen were very tired, they unexpectedly did not express their dissatisfaction.
The climate here made them very uncomfortable. It was snowing and the temperature kept dropping after nightfall. Many lizardmen soldiers had already started to shiver.
Faced with such an environment, the Lizardmen didn't even need their leader to urge them; they all wanted to leave quickly.
[No, this is still too slow.]
Thinking of this, the Lizardman leader's gaze fell directly on the giant beast not far away.
At that time, dinner was being prepared in the elf village, and now much of the food had gone into the stomach of the giant beast.
After a big meal, the giant beast was in a noticeably better mood.
"Everyone, get ready. Let's climb onto the backs of the Ankylosaur and the monitor lizard and speed up!"
Although the monitor lizard has explosive power, it is not durable, and the armored dragon does not even have explosive power.
But whether it is an armored dinosaur or a monitor lizard, they all have a common advantage, which is endurance.
It would definitely be more efficient to let the lizardmen squeeze onto the armored dragons and monitor lizards than for them to run on their own.
Now, the original "bus" armored dragon, after being covered with "free ride" lizardmen, was transformed into a train in a certain Indian country.
To some extent, the scene was spectacular.
During this time, the Lizardman Leader did think about the Dragoons who had left earlier, but he obviously did not have the energy to look for them at this time. He could only blow the retreat horn while rushing to the edge of the world.
I believe that after feeling the changes in the climate here, the Raptors will know what to do.
Thanks to the excellent physical strength of the Ankylosaurs and Giant Lizards, they managed to reach the edge of the world smoothly, but the Speed Dragon Cavalry was completely nowhere to be seen. This made the Lizardman Leader feel depressed, but he didn't have time to wait any longer.
"Let's get started."
As he was speaking, a green lizardman with a bone staff in his hand and a feather belt on his head began to dance over there, chanting in an unintelligible tune.
He danced for nearly ten minutes, during which time he became visibly weaker, as if his entire body was about to be drained dry.
Before he was completely drained, there was finally movement at the place where he had been performing the shaman dance. The space began to rotate and twist, and finally formed an energy channel in front of them.
"withdraw!"
There was no time to waste. At the command of the lizardman leader, the lizardmen quickly rushed into the energy channel and left this world.
