At this moment, Li Huailin and the others hid near the stronghold's entrance, observing the situation. They could clearly see Nacharan and the others' movements.
"It seems this guy is the leader of this stronghold. He looks like a mini-boss," Millennium said.
"I've been fighting them and discovered that these Thieves are around Level 60. Their HP is between 5,500 and 6,000, and their Physical Attack is around 500," Feng Yiliu said. "So, we can guess that this Boss is also a Level 60 Boss. It shouldn't be too difficult to deal with." Feng Yiliu said.
"It's actually a Level 58 monster with 5,600 HP," Li Huailin said. Currently, only Li Huailin was Level 56, so he could see the Thieves' information. Wind Yiliu and Millennium were Level 52, while Jade Emperor Summoner and Enron were only Level 51. Even so, Wind Yiliu's judgement was still very accurate. Even so, Wind Yiliu's judgement was still very accurate.
"But there are a lot of them," Millennium said. Millennium Immutable took a look and said, "It's easy to kill one, but look at so many …"
Due to the previous alarm, the Thieves below had already gathered together. Just as Seckard had said, there were roughly 300 of them. If they all swarmed forward, even Li Huailin, who had over 10,000 health, could be killed in an instant. Not to mention Tranquil and Millennium Immortal, who wore cloth and leather armor, they would be no match for them.
"We can't fight them head-on. Let's wait and see what happens," Jade Emperor Summoner said calmly.
Although they could see the situation below, they couldn't hear what the other party's leader said. However, after the other party gave some commands, the other party's army actually split up. A portion of the army, consisting of around 50 players, left along the main road, while the remaining players split into several groups and headed for the nearby mountain. It seemed that the other party was preparing to search for them.
"Huh? What's going on? The other party actually split up? " Millennium said curiously. Right now, he was most worried that the other party would stay at home and not make a move. The five of them didn't know what to do, yet the other party had taken the initiative to split up. This simply didn't make sense.
"They're probably afraid that we'll go back and inform them." The Jade Emperor immediately said, "The other party knows that we already know the location of the mountain village. They are afraid that we will go back and report it to the city, so they sent a troop to block the way in and out of the mountain."
"Is that so." Millennium Unchanged nodded. What he said made sense. That should be the case.
Of course, the bandit leader on the other side wasn't an idiot. Just now, his team of more than 20 people had been defeated, so this time, the guards that came out for the search consisted of 40 to 50 people. There were a total of four teams. In addition to the 50 people that went out to guard the entrance, there were still more than 60 people left in the stronghold. These teams could still fight on their own, but the distance between the pairs of people was not very far. As long as they shouted a few times, the troops next to them would immediately rush over, so it was very troublesome.
"The other party still has some brains. With this kind of configuration, even if we want to attack separately, it will be more troublesome," the Jade Emperor said after looking at the team. Before he finished speaking, he looked at Li Huailin and asked, "What do we do now?"
"It is indeed troublesome for them to split up like this. However, if there are only four teams, the search area is limited. It should be difficult for them to find us. Let's wait and see," Li Huailin said after thinking for a while.
Indeed, the surrounding area was so large, and there were so many places to hide. If they only split up into four teams, it would indeed be inefficient to search for five people. Finding five people was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Li Huailin and the others had no intention of exposing themselves. They quietly stood at a high point and observed the situation around them.
Sure enough, after waiting for a while, the Thieves on this side began to get impatient. If 50 people were to gather together to search, they wouldn't be able to find anyone even at night. They were Thieves, after all. They were originally a troop with no discipline, so they forgot their leader's instructions. The search team that was originally tightly packed together began to slowly spread out and expand the search area.
"Do you know what our biggest advantage is now?" Li Huailin suddenly said.
"Huh?" A few teammates who were enjoying the scenery turned their heads curiously. They did not know why Li Huailin suddenly said this.
"Look, our individual strength is completely superior to theirs. We also have the system's bonus super radio, so we can communicate with each other at any time. So, if we split up now, we should be able to maximize our advantage," Li Huailin said.
"Split up and attack them?" The Jade Emperor Summoner thought for a while and nodded. "Indeed, the other party's search team can only communicate by shouting. We can use the team chat to communicate. This is indeed a great advantage."
"How about this? Summon you and Millennium Immutable will form a team. Feather, you and Anran will form a team. I will attack them in various places alone. If I can kill one, I will kill one. Ensure our survival. Don't be greedy," Li Huailin said.
"Hmm …" The few of them thought for a while. It was indeed a good idea, so they nodded. The Jade Emperor Summoner said, "Me and Anran are both healers. This is not a problem. But you don't even have a healer on your side. Is it okay?"
"It's fine. My survivability is strong." Li Huailin actually had something else to say: I'm not afraid of death. He just didn't say it. "Everyone, be careful. Attack when you have the chance. Observe the other party's reaction before contacting them. Feather, you guys go there."
"Okay, be careful." The Jade Emperor Summoner and Feng Yiliu nodded.
Soon, Li Huailin's plan was carried out. The three teams arrived at their respective locations. The first to attack was Millennium Immutable and Anran. Millennium Immutable was a long-range attacker. It was more convenient to attack people. He didn't even need to show himself. He could just sneak attack from a hidden place and shoot arrows.
"Ouch, I'm being attacked. They're here. Ah …" The Bandit who was attacked by Millennium Immutable immediately shouted. Then, he was killed by Millennium Immutable with a few arrows. After killing one, Millennium Immutable immediately moved to another location.
This shout was naturally heard by all the Bandit search team members. Everyone ran towards the direction of the shout. When they ran to the surroundings, they saw their comrades' corpses lying on the ground. There were no enemies around.
"The other party ran away again!"
"Continue searching. They must be nearby!"
About two minutes later, Feng Yiliu saw an opportunity. He found a Bandit who was alone. Without saying a word, he killed the Bandit with a few slashes. Then, he turned around and ran.
"Damn! Over here! Over here! "A few people immediately ran over when they heard the shout. However, they didn't see anyone.
"How did they run over there? How did they move so quickly?" The Bandits thought that the five of them were moving together. They didn't understand why they were at the same hilltop two minutes ago. Two minutes later, they moved to another place.
A few minutes later, another scream rang out. Another person was attacked. This time, it was Millennium Immutable's sneak attack. The location had changed again.
"What's going on?" The search team members were dumbfounded. What's going on? Where are the other party?
At this time, Li Huailin also found his prey. A search team appeared in front of him. There were a total of ten people. These people were very cowardly. They stood close together, afraid that they would be ambushed. However, this formation was just right for Li Huailin to display his skills.
"Sou!" Li Huailin jumped down from the tree, landing right in the middle of the ten players. Before anyone could react, Li Huailin sent a Whirlwind Slash at the center of the group.
A large row of over 5,000 numbers mixed with a few critical hits of over 10,000 floated up. Immediately, six or seven people fell to the ground. Li Huailin raised his hand and swept it horizontally, directly taking down the remaining people. Afterwards, he picked up his sword, patted his butt, and left, leaving behind ten corpses.
After succeeding a few times, Li Huailin and the others began to grow bolder. Their attacks began to become more and more frequent. The Bandits were directly beaten up. This was because there were too many places to attack. The Bandits began to wonder if the other party only had five people, and if there was a large team of adventurers ambushing them here.
So naturally, the four search teams began to move closer and closer. Very soon, the search team members had gathered together. Now, there were only a hundred or so people left.
"Captain, what's going on? How many people do they have?"
"Yeah, my brother is dead. What's going on?"
It was obvious that the continuous ambushes had made the Bandits overly nervous. They were afraid that they would fall to the ground in the next second. No one wanted to search here anymore. It was simply suicide.
"What do you guys think? The other party is obviously playing dirty. They don't dare to show up and only ambush us. But there's nothing we can do, "one of the search team's captains said to the several captains next to him.
"We can't go on like this. We've already lost more than 30 people. If we continue to fight, we'll be wiped out." This was the team that had been beaten by Li Huailin. He had killed more than 30 people in one go. Their team originally had 45 people, but now there were only nine left. The captain wanted to cry, but no tears came out. If they continued to search, he would become a commander without an army.
"We can't go on like this. Let's go back and ask the leader what we should do," one of the captains suggested.
"We can't. We've lost dozens of people. If we go back and report, according to the leader's temper, he will definitely kill us," another captain said.
When the captains next to him heard this, they immediately relaxed. This guy was right. Everyone knew the leader's temper. Even if they went back alive, they would be killed by the leader. But what should they do now? They couldn't just stand on the mountain like this.
"I … I have a suggestion," suddenly, a captain raised his hand and said.
