Da Da Da!
In the dark canyon, the sound of hooves gradually came from far to near. After a moment, several figures riding strange beasts appeared in the sight of Dean and others. These people were burly, about two meters tall, with strong muscles. Their whole body was wrapped in steel helmets, and their mounts were tied with rough weapons. They rushed over quickly.
"Kill!"
A cold light flashed in Reid's eyes as he stepped forward. He held his big sword and swung it out with a whistling sound.
A barbarian was shocked as he saw Reid and others jump out. He wanted to stop his mount but it was hard to stop. Instead, its soft abdomen was exposed to Reid's sword. The barbarian's abdomen was almost cut off. Blood sputtered out from the edge of the sword. The barbarian who was on the back of the mount rolled down.
Whoosh!
Several archers shot arrows at the barbarian. The barbarian wasn't able to get up and was nailed to the ground.
On the other side, the Shield Swordsman and Knight were not willing to fall behind. They quickly pounced on a few other savages. Their movements were swift, and they coordinated well with each other. They quickly knocked down a few of the startled mounts of the savages. They attacked with their swords and spears, killing them.
"Leave one alive!" Reid roared as he pulled out his sword from the belly of the ferocious mount.
In just a few minutes, seven or eight barbarians were caught off guard. All of them were killed. Only one was left alive. But his chest was pierced by an arrow. It wasn't fatal.
The battle ended in a blink of an eye. Reid ordered the others to clean up the barbarian's body and the ferocious mount. He didn't want the barbarians to notice them. He brought the surviving barbarian to Dean: "Master, there is one alive. We should arrest him and bring him back for interrogation. We have beast language masters in the military who understand the language of the barbarians."
Dean looked at the barbarian and shook his head: "This is just the beginning. They should be the vanguard of scouts. If they haven't returned then they will send more people to investigate. Our duty should be to guard this place. Otherwise we won't be able to compete with them by relying on the advantage of the canyon. The commercial district behind Blackwater Swamp will become their territory. Moreover it will become an important stronghold for them to encroach on the entire commercial district."
Reid was startled. He couldn't help but look at Dean. Finding the Scarlett Grand Canyon was just luck. But now he was able to point out the importance of the terrain. It was a pretty good military vision.
"Master is really an extraordinary genius." Reid sighed. His eyes fell on the struggling barbarian. His face turned cold as he kicked the barbarian's back: "Let's waste his hands and feet."
"I'll do it."
Jesse, who was at the side, took out a piece of cloth and stuffed it into the savage's mouth. Then, he pulled out his dagger and cut off the savage's elbows like he was cutting tofu. At the same time, he cut off the tendons behind his ankles and the ligaments behind his knees. In an instant, the savage completely lost his ability to move and became a cripple.
Barbarian's face was full of pain as he stared at Dean and others in anger.
Dean squatted down and reached out to touch the armor on his body thoughtfully.
"Master?" Reid softly called out as he saw Dean's appearance.
Dean recovered from his thoughts: "Leave the smell of blood here. If barbarians come again then they won't be defenseless. Let's set up some traps first."
Reid was startled: "That's what I was thinking." He turned around and ordered.
The night was getting darker.
After more than an hour, another group of barbarians came from outside the canyon. These barbarians seemed to smell the blood of their own kind. They were more cautious when they entered the canyon. However, the barbarians didn't last long in front of Reid's trap. They were killed by the sneak attack of Reid's group. One of the barbarians was riding a monster mount. It couldn't be shot down so it turned around and ran out of the canyon. This made everyone feel uneasy.
Time flew by.
Several teams of barbarians came from outside the canyon but they were killed by Reid and others who relied on traps and sneak attacks. However, these savages were extremely ferocious and were much stronger than ordinary soldiers. In the continuous battle, one of the Shield Swordsmen was attacked by two savages working together with a monster mount. His head was bitten off, and he died with a grudge.
Everyone leaned against the canyon wall. They were holding their bloodstained weapons in silence.
Ever since the death of the Shield Swordsman, the cheerful atmosphere of wiping out the barbarians disappeared. Everyone knew that this was just the beginning. They only had a few people, and if the barbarians kept appearing at such a high rate, they would definitely die of exhaustion.
Late at night.
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh!
In the cold night air, a group of people riding giant black wolves rustled as they arrived in front of Scarlet Canyon. The howling cold wind blew from the canyon like the mournful cries of the undead.
They were led by a slender figure who was fully armed and wearing a lion helmet. She was riding on a mount that looked like a lion or a leopard that was nearly three meters tall. The mount was also fully armed, with a helmet made of steel on its forehead, and scale-like soft armor on the claws and joints of its forelimbs. It had an extremely strong defensive ability when charging and breaking through enemy lines.
Whoosh!
The monster mount jumped agilely and stopped at a high slope in front of the canyon. The slender figure sitting on the back of the monster mount stood upright and looked forward. After a while, she suddenly drove the monster mount to the edge of the canyon entrance. She reached out and touched the rock wall of the canyon. She put her hand back to the tip of her nose and sniffed. She seemed to be relieved. She turned back and whispered a string of strange syllables in a low voice.
When the wolf cavalry behind her heard her words, four of them immediately stepped forward and led the way into the gorge.
The slender woman wearing a lion helmet patted the mount. The monster mount followed them without a word.
At the other end of the canyon.
Reid and others quickly got up after hearing the news from an elite archer. They knew that the prey was coming. They clenched their weapons as their figures flashed. They appeared at the traps on both sides of the canyon. They were ready to wait for the prey to fall into the net.
Whoosh!
The sound of rustling wind and armor rubbing against each other gradually came from the canyon, but it sounded extremely weak in the howling cold wind.
Reid's physique wasn't weak. Apparently, he heard the slight sound. His face changed. He raised his hand to make an ambush attack gesture.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At this time, three figures riding giant wolves flew over, from hazy to clear, quickly expanding in the line of sight of Dean and others. Their whole bodies were covered in black armor, as if rushing from hell.
Dean was startled. There was a trace of surprise in his eyes. These three barbarians were riding giant wolves. Their body heat was much more exuberant than the previous barbarians. They were like a group of flames.
At this time, Reid roared and took the lead to kill with his sword.
"Kill!"
Thirteen warriors roared and rushed out from both sides of the ambush.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The archers who were hiding in the crevices of the canyon took aim. The arrows pierced through the air and hit the bodies of the three giant wolf knights. Some of the arrows bounced off the giant wolf knight's armor, leaving only a dent.
Plop! Plop!
The giant wolf riders were caught off guard, and two of them fell from their giant wolves. One of them had his throat pierced and died on the spot, while the other was luckier. The giant wolf he was riding on had its front paw injured, and its body became unstable, causing it to fall.
At this time, Reid, the other knights and the shield swordsmen had rushed out.
However, they hadn't come close when a sharp buzzing sound echoed. They saw an arrow coming from the depths of the dark canyon. It flew over the head of the remaining giant wolf knight and fell down in an arc. It shrouded the place where Reid and others appeared.
"Not good!" Reid's face changed. He hurriedly waved his sword to block the arrow.
However, the others behind him were not so lucky. Some of them could not dodge in time and were pierced in the chest, arm, or eye sockets by the sudden rain of arrows. They screamed and fell to the ground. The rest of the Shield Swordsmen who reacted faster immediately raised their shields and stood in front of their injured companions to cover their retreat.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The archers who were hiding in the crevices of the cliff didn't think that there would be archers among the barbarians. They were shocked and quickly pulled their bows and arrows. They aimed at the back of the giant wolf knight. They didn't care whether they could hit the enemy or not. They simply used the number of arrows to offset the enemy's fierce firepower.
At this moment, the giant wolf under the feet of the remaining Giant Wolf Rider suddenly leaned forward and fell to the ground, its two front limbs broken. On the ground where it ran, in the crevices on both sides of the rock, there was a hair-thin steel wire knife embedded. This was an extremely famous hidden weapon of the military, and it could be said to be a demonic existence in terrain warfare. If used well, it could easily eliminate an enemy ten times the size of the army.
The barbarians behind the giant wolf knight were exposed after he fell down.
All of them were fully armed and riding giant wolves. It seemed that they had already expected Reid's attack. They roared and rushed over.
Reid's face changed. He was frightened and angry. He roared and waved his sword to kill the fallen giant wolf knight. Then he stood behind the steel wire knife and waved his sword to block the arrows while waiting for the other giant wolf knights to come over.
Bang! Bang!
The giant wolf knights rushed in front of the steel wire knife. The giant wolf's forelimbs were cut off. Its body rolled down and crushed the barbarians on its back.
The giant wolf knight was aghast as he roared in a strange language. The giant wolf suddenly jumped and dodged when the giant wolf knight rushed in front of the steel wire knife.
Reid roared as he brandished his sword to kill the wolf riders. He joined the others to meet them.
