The initial battle only lasted for a short period of time. After being ambushed by Standing Scorpion and successfully counterattacking, every emerald dragon seemed to be very excited. They believed that they had won!
Now, the morale of the emerald dragons was extremely high. They raised their weapons and roared excitedly. Under Black Pepper's command, the emerald dragons began to attack the pyramid!
"Ohhhhh! Kill them all! " The emerald dragons were extremely excited. They ran wildly in the direction of the map. Even if they saw some small wild dinosaurs, the emerald dragons could not help but poke them a few times.
Lin also charged along with them. It was an interesting phenomenon. The emerald dragons were not so excited because of the small victory just now. Lin guessed that it was because they had been too depressed all this time.
These emerald dragons' daily lives were oppressed. The lower level of the emerald dragons lived day and night without food. Although the normal level of the emerald dragons had a better life, they still had to put in all their effort to live. They had to constantly produce things to obtain resources, or use labor to obtain resources.
If they were like this for a long time, their thoughts would be suppressed for a long time. Some of the secretions in their brains would not be discharged for a long time, causing their bodies to slowly deteriorate. When the pressure reached its limit, they would commit suicide.
However, there was only one way to release all this, and that was … through battle.
Generally speaking, making one's thoughts happy was also a way to reconcile. However, the most direct way was through battle. Or rather, using the word 'violence', one could use all one's strength to destroy things. This kind of long-suppressed thoughts would obtain an extremely comfortable feeling of release! It was like expelling all the waste in one's body!
These emerald dragons, who had been suppressed for a long time, successfully defeated Standing Scorpion's ambush. Their repressed thoughts were released at this moment. Therefore, they were extremely excited. There were many emerald dragons in the center of the army. Even if they did not directly fight, they were very excited after seeing their companions kill Standing Scorpion …
Lin could see some Susumi soldiers in this army. They did not seem as excited. After all, these soldiers did not have to be suppressed and often participated in activities such as hunting.
Perhaps it was because of the emerald dragons' excitement that Black Pepper gave the order to attack.
This kind of direct attack … was very unwise …
Up ahead. The huge pyramid had already appeared in front of the Emerald Dragon. The area around the pyramid with a radius of more than 50 meters was covered with a type of grass that was about one meter tall. It was called the 'golden grass'. It seemed that the Standing Scorpion was not suitable for an ambush here.
"Ohhhh!!!" The emerald dragons roared excitedly and rushed into the grassy area outside the pyramid. They rushed directly in the direction of the pyramid. They seemed to be fearless now, but their madness would make them …
"Be careful! Ambush! " Black Pepper suddenly roared in the air. The grass on both sides of the Emerald Dragon army suddenly shook violently. A group of standing scorpions suddenly jumped out from the grass and threw the spears in their hands. They directly pierced through many Emerald Dragons on both sides of the team.
"Ga —!!!" These Emerald Dragons seemed to be too excited to see their companions being stabbed to death. Instead, he shouted and raised his weapon to attack Li Xie.
However, these standing scorpions were even faster. After throwing their spears, they immediately dived into the grass and quickly scattered.
So that's how it is. Using such a sneak attack tactic? It seemed that the standing scorpions did not want to fight head-on. They always used this kind of hit-and-run tactic. Did this mean that their numbers were not enough to compete with the emerald dragons?
Black Pepper also seemed to be thinking about this problem. He rode on his viper dragon and watched carefully in the air. Lin felt that he was recording the fighting style of the standing scorpions so that he could report it to Susumi later.
"Don't run! Ga! " The emerald dragons wanted to catch up to the standing scorpions. They followed the tracks left behind by the standing scorpions and scattered in the grass.
"Don't scatter! Gather together! " Black Pepper immediately shouted when he saw this. However, some of the emerald dragons were too excited and ran too far away. By the time they reacted, they found themselves standing alone in the grass.
One of the emerald dragons realized that something was wrong and wanted to return to the team. However, it suddenly felt like its tail was being pulled by something. Before it could react, a powerful force dragged it into the grass. Then, there was an extremely sharp scream.
"Ga!" At this time, another scream was heard. Another emerald dragon was dragged into the grass. After that, a few more screams were heard. The emerald dragons that were scattered in the grass were all ambushed.
Seeing this, Black Pepper stopped asking the emerald dragons to gather together. Instead, he shouted to the team, "Attack! Full scale attack! Let's kill those monsters hiding in the grass! "
"Ga!" A large part of the emerald dragons' team was still in the forest. When they heard Black Pepper's order, they immediately rushed into the grass. A large number of emerald dragons charged together. Their numbers were enough to occupy the entire grassland. No matter how good the standing scorpions were at hiding, many of them were caught by the emerald dragons. Every one of them who was caught was immediately killed by the emerald dragons. The rest of the standing scorpions who were still hiding in the grass had no choice but to retreat.
It seemed that the standing scorpions here only dared to launch sneak attacks. They did not dare to attack under the attack of the emerald dragons. Perhaps there were not many of them, at least there were not many of them here.
"Surround the building!" Under Black Pepper's command, the emerald dragons spread out. They cleared the grass around the pyramid as they slowly surrounded it. The pyramid was nearly thirty meters tall. It was now surrounded by the emerald dragons. There were no longer any standing scorpions in the grass, so there was no need to worry about being ambushed.
The emerald dragons had already occupied the grassland around the pyramid. They were even more excited after their victory. However, they had to stop attacking because … they could not see the entrance to the pyramid.
The entire pyramid was surrounded by walls made of rocks and sand. There was no place for them to enter. This made them very confused.
Even Black Pepper, who was riding on a viper, circled the pyramid a few times in the sky. He did not find anything strange.
Could this pyramid be a trap? In fact, it was not. The spy walked to the side of the pyramid and put his ear on it to listen carefully. He could hear some sounds coming from inside … The standing scorpions were talking inside.
Obviously, the inside of the pyramid was hollow. However, ordinary emerald dragons could not hear it. The spy's hearing was more sensitive. Lin could even hear some of the dragon's words … like 'they are coming,' 'they are outside,' and so on.
There seemed to be no practical content. It was more like the standing scorpions were gossiping among themselves. However, Lin still heard something special: 'they are trapped.'
Who was he referring to when he said trapped? The standing scorpions? Or the group of emerald dragons outside?
The standing scorpions might have blocked the entrance before the emerald dragons came. Or they might have another entrance to the pyramid.
The emerald dragons were now waiting outside. They did not have any weapons or methods to break the walls of the pyramid. Some of the emerald dragons began to hit the walls with stones and wooden sticks. However, it did not work at all.
If the standing scorpions stayed inside and did not come out, it would lead to a battle of attrition. There was no telling how much food the standing scorpions had to sustain them. As for the emerald dragons … it was obvious that they could not afford to waste time. Their excitement would soon subside, and there was not much food left.
However, Black Pepper obviously had a way. He shouted in the sky, "Make wooden hammers and break the walls!"
"Caw?" Most of the emerald dragons looked at the sky in puzzlement. They did not know how to make wooden hammers. However, the regular soldiers in the team stepped forward and began to teach the emerald dragons how to make wooden hammers.
First, they would knock down a big tree. Then, they would sharpen one end of the tree. Then, dozens of emerald dragons would hug the tree and smash the sharp end of the tree into the wall.
It seemed quite simple. The soldiers gathered the emerald dragons. These emerald dragons were all armed with stone axes. Just as they were about to start looking for the tree, a voice stopped them.
"You don't have to do that." The one who said this was Lin's spy. Lin stood in front of the tree-cutting team, blocking their path.
The emerald dragon soldier at the front said, "Don't block them. Move aside!"
"I told you, you don't have to do that …" With that, the spy walked to the edge of the pyramid under the curious gazes of the emerald dragons. Lin then climbed up the slanted wall and stopped at a height of about five meters. She then said to the emerald dragons, "This is the entrance."
Then, the spy knocked on the wall. With a loud crack, a huge crack appeared on the wall.
The spy jumped down and saw that the crack on the wall was still spreading. Finally, it caused the wall here to completely collapse, revealing a hole about two meters in diameter …
Lin noticed that some loose gravel had fallen from the pyramid. It was obvious that the scorpions had put it there temporarily. However, the color and luster of the gravel were exactly the same as the surrounding walls, so it was not obvious.
All the emerald dragons looked at the hole in surprise. Looking in from the outside, they could see the densely packed scorpions inside. Similarly, the scorpions were also looking outside in surprise. Although their carapace-covered faces were expressionless, Lin could sense their emotions … They were floating in the sky.
