Chapter 1344 Under the Cover of Night
Zhou Xu had already made up his mind to return to Black Moon City.
But before leaving, some things still need to be arranged.
[With Lao Jie and Chong Shan here, and Yalvet to take care of the female warrior tribe, and three Vajra Realm fighters, the coalition forces should be safe enough.]
[However, just in case, it is better to leave Xuan Yu at the front line as well. ]
Zhou Xu left Xuan Yu behind, obviously targeting Saint Laurent I. Although he still didn't understand what Saint Laurent I was afraid of, he didn't mind continuing to use him.
[Speaking of which, where has this rebellious son Xuan Yu gone this time?! ]
Zhou Xu got a headache whenever he thought of this.
This rebellious son's temper is getting more and more wild. He was so obedient and stayed by my side for a while, but after things turned out to be over, he immediately went wild again.
When he returned to Black Moon City, he would leave Xuan Yu here. He would definitely have to remind Xuan Yu of some things.
[Forget it, let's wait for that rebellious son to come back first! I don't mind staying a few more days. ]
Zhou Xu was in a very calm state of mind at this moment.
Now that his cultivation has reached the out-of-body realm, normally speaking, he can live for at least a few hundred years, or even a thousand years.
With such a long life in front of him, just a few days seems nothing to Zhou Xu now.
[No, no, why do you have such an idea? Time is still very precious, you can't learn from the elves of the past! ]
The significant extension of his natural lifespan has caused subtle changes in Zhou Xu's mentality.
Zhou Xu, who had just reacted, was shocked.
Naturally, having a long life is a good thing, but if you become lazy because of it, that is not a good thing.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu quickly reflected on himself.
He originally wanted to go to bed early tonight, but now after such a round of reflection...
【Sleep, meditate! 】
On this side, after a period of self-reflection, Zhou Xu began to work hard and meditate all night.
At the same time, under the same night sky, a group of Centaurs led by Diak were setting up camp nearby to rest...
In order to avoid being discovered by the Goblin Wolf Cavalry on the opposite side, they did not make a fire. After simply eating a few bites of dry food and arranging the people to be on night duty, they went to bed early.
As the night deepened, a burst of tiny sounds outside the camp caught the attention of the soldiers on duty. They quickly exchanged glances, then held their breath and focused all their attention on their hearing.
In this dark environment, they actually rely more on their hearing than their vision.
[Animals? This is not right.]
Centaurs are essentially a nomadic race, and hunting is their forte. They are very familiar with the movement patterns of many wild animals and can distinguish them with a little discrimination.
Almost at the same time as he made the judgment in his mind, the soldier on duty quickly exchanged glances, and his comrade beside him immediately understood.
After two seconds, one of the soldiers on duty pretended to be nonchalant and moved towards the camp, quietly waking up every Centaur soldier who was resting.
Then, with a signal, they stopped acting, looked in a direction, and started running!
Almost at the same time, a large number of goblin wolf cavalry burst out from the bushes on the periphery.
"WAAAAGH!!!"
Not only in the rear, but also on both sides of the periphery, there were traces of Goblin Wolf Cavalry everywhere.
Needless to say, the other side had already discovered the traces of the Centaurs, but they did not act rashly. Instead, they chose to quietly deploy an encirclement from the outside.
Obviously, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry themselves knew that if they really charged, it would be difficult for them to catch up with the Centaur Cavalry, and they had to form an encirclement first to have a chance to successfully intercept and kill the enemy.
At this stage, the entire encirclement was barely half formed, and the opponent's running away directly disrupted their original plan.
Amid the war cries, the wolf cavalry general shouted to the goblin wolf cavalry on both sides to attack from both sides and slow down the movement of the centaur cavalry.
During this time, Diak was observing the surrounding situation the whole time, and after noticing the intentions of the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, he reacted quickly.
"Flanking squad, war charge!"
【War Charge!!】
Instantly, the power of the truth exploded, and with every drop of the horse's hooves, the spreading shock wave instantly blew away the approaching goblin wolf riders.
It was during these few shocks that the Centaur Cavalry completed their acceleration and completely left the Goblin Wolf Cavalry behind.
Normally speaking, once the distance widens, it would be unrealistic for the Goblin Wolf Riders to catch up in a short period of time given their stamina.
"WAAAAGH!! Don't stop, keep chasing!!"
However, the goblin general obviously had no intention of letting them go.
Different from the Centaur Cavalry's mode of action, they had been resting almost the entire day. Now they were fully rested and waiting for this wave.
Long before the action began, the Wolf Cavalry officers had already prepared themselves mentally for a contest of endurance.
Under normal circumstances, they cannot compete with the Centaurs in terms of endurance, but now they have rested better than the Centaurs, and if they extend the time, they will always be able to compete!
At this moment, they had not figured out what the Goblin Wolf Cavalry behind them were thinking. After successfully widening the distance, the Centaur Cavalry led by Diak immediately turned around and launched a "high-speed charge" to accelerate, intending to completely shake off the Goblin Wolf Cavalry chasing behind them in one breath.
With the help of the mantra, the Centaur Cavalry's acceleration was very effective, and the Goblin Wolf Cavalry that fell behind soon disappeared completely into the night behind them.
After running for nearly another hour, Diak and his team finally slowed down their pace.
"It's not safe here yet. Let's take a breath and then continue to move."
After running for a while, the faces of the Centaur soldiers showed signs of fatigue.
They were moving the entire day, and after dark, they only rested for less than two hours at most, and their physical strength was not restored at all.
Many Centaur soldiers were even exhausted and out of breath.
Among them, Joseph was even a little angry.
"I think the King Kong Realm on the opposite side didn't act with them at all, otherwise they would have taken action right from the start."
Joseph was still young and energetic, and he was very strong. How could he bear being chased by the Goblin Wolf Cavalry? "I think we should charge first! Even if something goes wrong, we can just use War Charge to break through the formation and leave. Can those guys stop us?!"
