Chapter 498: Unexpected Gains
Since the war between the Lizardmen and the Ratmen has basically never stopped in the past two years, the young and middle-aged people in the Lizardmen’s territory have basically gathered on the battlefield in the south.
Of course, considering the existence of their old neighbors, the Centaurs, they also left some troops behind to be vigilant.
There is no need to elaborate on where this part of the troops finally went.
Simply put, there are only a group of elderly, weak, women and children left in the tribe now.
Although there has been constant fighting in the border area, the atmosphere inside is relatively peaceful because the tribe is hidden deep in the rainforest and the war does not affect this area.
Until the arrival of the millennium...
Amid screams, extraordinary creatures that should not have appeared in the rainforest area completely broke the tranquility, and the lizardmen who discovered the thousand-year-old existence fled in panic.
Compared to these panicked lizardmen, Qiansui was much calmer. His pair of dark golden eyes curiously looked at the building complex in front of him located deep in the rainforest, and he walked inside slowly without any hurry.
At this moment, accompanied by dense and swift footsteps, the emergency rescue dragoons rushed out directly from the rain forest.
After discovering Chitose's presence, they immediately sent a signal and surrounded Chitose.
During this process, they kept a distance from Chitose and continued to move to reduce the possibility of being killed by Chitose.
At the same time, Soros, who also came back riding a velociraptor, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the signal.
Although the extraordinary creatures on the opposite side took action before them, they were unclear about the route and needed to search along the way, which made them arrive here almost one after another.
However, before Soros could breathe a sigh of relief, a deafening roar came from not far away.
Visible sound waves spread along with the roar, and at the same time caused the surrounding plant branches and leaves to rustle, causing Soros's face to change suddenly.
“Tsk!”
At this moment, Soros's face was full of annoyance.
This roar was like a signal. Once it was caught by the other side, the location of their tribe would be completely exposed, which was not a good thing for them.
He could hope for the best and think that the other party might not notice it, but...is that possible?
Zhou Xu, who was on the plain position, moved his ears and vaguely heard the movement coming from the depths of the rainforest. He subconsciously looked up and immediately saw a large number of startled birds. He guessed that something must have happened inside.
Just as he was thinking about this, a messenger rushed out of the rainforest and reported the latest situation to him.
After listening to the report and analyzing what happened just now, Zhou Xu immediately had some ideas in his mind.
[The Lizardmen troops suddenly gave up the fight and all members retreated urgently. Could it be that Chitose broke into their camp or even their residence? ]
According to the information previously provided to them by the Centaurs, the Lizardmen lived deep in this rainforest.
This was an unexpected gain that he had not expected before.
Even if they could destroy the opposite camp, it would be a great thing for them, not to mention the Lizardmen's habitat.
Isn't this a direct attack on Huanglong?! During this period, Zhou Chongshan also reported the latest situation of their mountain troops to Zhou Xu through the messenger. They still have the strength to fight.
Now, there is no reason not to continue the attack! "Send the attack signal!"
Upon receiving the order, the exciting attack horn sounded.
Inside the rainforest, Zhou Chongshan immediately understood what was going on when he heard the sound of the horn.
"Keep attacking!"
After the order was given, the sword and shield troops immediately advanced aggressively.
Zhou Xu, who was on the plain, was undoubtedly preparing to set off.
After all, as the large army continues to advance, if the distance is too far, the power of mantra he bestowed on the skeleton soldiers will dissipate.
Under this premise, as an important component of the combat power of their infantry units at this stage, in order to ensure that the skeleton soldiers can continue to play their role, Zhou Xu, as the controller, will undoubtedly have to follow suit and move forward.
At the same time, in the Lizardmen’s territory...
Without any words, the old, the weak, the women and the children in the tribe all fled towards the direction of the temple.
They didn't know that all the temple guards had been taken away by Soros.
Or even if they knew, they would still flee over there.
In the eyes of the lizard people, the temple with the high priest is the safest place.
Such a big thing happened outside that the high priest's confidants in the army had already rushed back to report to him.
After hearing the report, the high priest's face looked extremely ugly.
The tribe's land, backed by the edge of the world and hidden in a large area of lush rainforest, should have been able to rest easy.
After all, in the energy channel that opens from time to time, even if outsiders come in, they, as the defenders, can completely block the exit and easily annihilate the opponent.
The high priest never dreamed that there would come a day when they would be attacked by the enemy.
Whenever he thought of this, the high priest would feel an unstoppable anger surge in his heart.
At the same time, as the Great Zhou troops led by Zhou Chongshan advanced towards the Lizardmen's territory, one of the two velociraptors who had been hiding in the dark and monitoring the subsequent actions of the opposite side in accordance with Soros's orders hurried to report.
"Commander, the enemy troops are moving towards this side!"
“Damn it!”
Soros couldn't help but utter a curse.
The situation he least wanted to see happened.
It cannot be said that the old, the weak, women and children in the tribe have no fighting power at all, but it is also very limited. According to their current fighting power, once the opposing large army arrives, coupled with the existence of that extraordinary creature, their tribe will most likely not be able to be defended.
As his thoughts raced, Soros rode on his dragoons and quickly circled around the temple from the outside to explain the latest situation to the high priest.
At this moment, the high priest's face looked so ugly that it made him feel panicked, but Soros had no choice but to go ahead.
"High Priest, please help and reverse the situation!"
After hearing these words, the high priest's face became uncertain.
They, the Lizardmen, were created as servants of 'God', so their power and heritage are closely related to 'God'.
Simply put, the weaker the 'God' is, the less power they will receive from the 'God'.
Thousands of years ago, the 'God' sleeping deep in the temple could at least show his power once every hundred years, but by his generation, the 'God' had not shown his power for at least five hundred years.
During this time, as the high priest, he could feel that the connection between himself and 'God' was becoming increasingly weak, and his power was also decreasing. This was proof that their 'God' was becoming increasingly weak.
From that time on, the high priest no longer acted rashly and stayed in the temple all year round to serve the gods.
In fact, it was to hide the fact that his power was getting weaker.
But at this point, the enemy is probably about to attack outside their temple, and he has no room to evade any further! (End of this chapter)
