Ranger Legend of Azeroth

v2 Chapter 2: very valuable target

Slave catchers! Shaqier was taken aback, she finally understood the reason why she had been restless all day. It was too late to think about how these human slave catchers came to the core area of ​​the dark forest.

She quickly rolled over on the spot and hid under a big tree on the other side. Rolling on the spot can make her contact with the net later, and hiding under the roots of big trees can also make it less easy for the opponent's net to catch her.

Although so far, she hasn't seen a single person. But she was absolutely sure it was an attack from a human slave catcher. Because this method is commonly used by human slave hunting teams, and she has seen it before. At that time, she led a patrol to rescue a female dark elf who was captured by a slave capture team.

When the human slave hunting team is dispatched, there will never be only one person, and it is not just a means of catching nets. There must be other people waiting in the dark nearby.

Shaqier's long ears instantly stood up, and her senses were also enhanced to the extreme. The originally tense face was full of firmness and sternness at the moment.

She was indeed a little nervous before the incident happened, but after the incident, she didn't feel nervous at all. In fact, she didn't even have time to be nervous now.

It happened too suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, she could only concentrate all her energy to deal with the next sudden attack of the human slave hunting team. She simply didn't have time to be afraid, or tense.

call out! call out! call out! Several slight blowing arrows sounded.

Although the sound of blowing arrows was very slight, she could hear it very clearly in this terribly quiet night, being highly concentrated. Without hesitation, Shaqier stepped on the root of the big tree with his right foot, and leaped to the right like an agile cheetah, avoiding the blowing arrows.

Of course she doesn't listen to the wind to identify the position, she knows in advance where the blowing arrow will go. But she has every reason to believe that the blow dart must be aimed at herself, because here she is the only one who is the target of others, and there is no one else.

Although the blowing arrow is very small, it is only a small bamboo tube for launching. Although it blows with the mouth, the shooting distance is not very far. But if it is used for a sneak attack, it is often difficult for people to hide. Moreover, those small blow darts are often coated with poison, or paralyzing potion or deadly poison that seals the throat when it sees blood.

Tap! Three blow darts, as small as needles, were nailed to the root of the tree where Shakier was just now like drumbeats when Shakier dodged. The down on the arrow trembled and then stopped moving.

Although Shaqier didn't deliberately look at the blow darts, she could still see the three blow darts from the corner of her eyes, reflecting the faint cold light of poison.

Blow arrows are different from ordinary arrows. Instead of arrow feathers, the nocks are made of a very light cotton material similar to fluff. These fluff-like things can make the arrow needle blow farther, fly more stably, and shoot more accurately and powerfully.

Shaqier pulled out the knife from his waist.

The mending nets and darts of the human slave hunting team are used up, so it's time to show up next, and it's time to meet each other. This has always been a standard procedure for the human slave hunting team, because by this time, everyone knows that they have been ambushed.

If those human slave hunting teams hadn't appeared yet, no one would just stay where they were, waiting for their calm attack from the dark. If the enemy cannot be seen, the vast majority of people will choose to flee immediately and get out of the dangerous situation quickly. However, if the target is allowed to escape, then this operation of the human slave hunting team will be considered a complete failure.

sand! sand! sand! sand…

From the bushes on both sides of the road, seven or eight human warriors wearing black armor and black cloak sprang out almost at the same time. At the same time, four human thieves wearing black leather armor and holding daggers jumped down from the big trees on both sides of the bluestone path.

No archers? Shaqier looked around vigilantly, she must have at least two archers hiding in the dark.

Human slave hunting teams can have no mages, priests, or even warriors. But it is absolutely impossible not to have thieves and archers, because both thieves and archers are experts in sneak attacks.

"Slave catcher!" Shaqier gritted his teeth and whispered three words out of his red mouth. But the originally charming eyes like autumn water are burning with raging anger at this moment.

Eight human warriors in black cloaks and black armor surrounded Shaqier without saying a word. But the four thieves who just jumped off the big tree gradually disappeared into the dark shadows.

"Hmph!" Shakier snorted coldly, and took the lead in attacking a slave catcher warrior on her left.

She must not allow these slave catcher fighters to complete the siege of her. She must stand out of the encirclement and stay away from here before these slave catcher fighters complete the siege, otherwise she will be doomed.

Her figure in the darkness was like a fast and fierce black panther, and she reached in front of the slave catcher in an instant. As the captain of the temple guard, she was not weak.

"Dang!" That slave catcher warrior is obviously not a weak person. At the critical moment, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com raised the small round shield in his left hand to block Shaqier's knife on his neck. His one-handed sword also cut like Shaqier's thigh.

Obviously he didn't want to kill Shaqier, he just wanted to cut and subdue Shaqier. The purpose of the slave catchers is to capture the elves and sell them to the wealthy nobles in the human kingdom.

Living elves are very valuable, whether they are moon elves or dark elves are very valuable. And a dead elf is not as useful to them as a dead monster.

Therefore, a qualified slave catcher will never attack the target until it is absolutely necessary. Because the slave catchers only had one shot for each action, no matter whether they caught the target or not, they had to retreat immediately.

Because, as long as they act, the elves in the forest will soon notice their existence and hunt them down. At that time, they could only try their best to escape as soon as possible, and it was impossible to have a second chance to make a move.

Because it is just a private organization like the slave hunting team, it is absolutely impossible to compete with the state machine of the elf kingdom. And in the jungle, they will definitely not be the opponents of those elf patrols who are good at jungle warfare.

Although the dark elf kingdom in the dark forest is not as powerful as the moon elf kingdom in the elf forest, and its population is much smaller than that of the moon elves, it is not something that slave hunters like them can beat.

Dark elves and moon elves are equally good at fighting in the jungle. They only have different beliefs, and the difference in appearance is not very big. The dark elves believe in the dark goddess, while the moon elves believe in the moon god.
