Chapter 87 Survivors
When Levi and his party arrived at Hebang Village, they saw a lifeless silence.
It was approaching noon, and there was no one working in the farmland outside the village. The village was quiet, except for a few sporadic crows, there was no other sound.
Walking into the village, one could still smell a faint smell of blood. Levi opened the door of a courtyard at random and found that the owner of the house had already fallen to the ground.
The blood had dried up, but the dark red blood stains on the ground were still a bit dazzling. Since the weather was still a bit cold, the body did not rot.
Yaqis knelt down and carefully examined the wounds on the body, and finally confirmed that this should also be done by a werewolf.
Levi said to Yaqis: "There may be no survivors in the village. What are you going to do next?"
"Boss, I plan to go to Uncle Soth's house to see if he is still alive. I am a little reluctant. "Yaqis's face was pale. Although he knew that hope was slim, he still had a trace of fantasy.
"Okay, then I'll follow you and go to the house of the hunter named Soss."
Levi agreed to Yassos's request, and then several people came to the house of the hunter named Soss under the guidance of Yasos. hunter's home.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the small courtyard, Yaqis found the body of the aunt and couldn't help but feel sad. After entering the room, Yaqis turned around again, but he did not find the bodies of Soth and his little brother Angel.
"How's it going?" Levi asked.
"There are still two corpses that I haven't found. One is that of Uncle Yasos, and the other is that of Uncle Yasos's younger brother. The body of Yasos, the uncle's aunt, is here." "
The one named Yasos is here ." The hunter from Soth may have died outside the village, but his child should be at home.
If his body is not found, it is possible that it is hidden somewhere more secluded." Bella Mu pondered for a moment and slowly expressed his guess.
"It's indeed very possible!" Yaqis exclaimed.
So everyone searched around again, but still found no place to hide people.
Suddenly Levi remembered it, and he called down Fat Zi, who was floating in the sky.
"Fat Zi, take a look to see if there is any space underground around you."
Fat Zi groaned, and with a slight sense, he actually found an underground space, just under the stove.
"Yaqis, go and see if there is any tunnel under the stove."
Yakis got the hint and ran to the stove to search. Suddenly he smelled a familiar aroma of herbs, which were specially used to cover the stove. breath.
Now he was even more certain that Angel from Uncle Soth's house should be hiding in this place. Sure enough, after rummaging around for a while, I removed the big iron pot and found that there was indeed a cellar entrance under the stove.
Looking at the dark hole, Yaqis didn't think much and jumped into it. Before he could adapt to the dark environment inside, a knife suddenly stabbed Yaqis.
But the stabbing speed of the knife was too slow and the force was too weak. Yaqis easily defused it. Yaqis took a closer look and saw a frightened little boy. This man was Angel, the son of Uncle Soth's family.
"Angel, it's me! Your brother Archis, I'm here to save you."
Angel, who had been alone in the dark for two days, couldn't help crying loudly when he heard the familiar voice.
"Brother Yaqis, are my parents gone?" Angel's voice was filled with tears, but he still held back his tears.
Children from poor families become sensible early. Even though Angel is only ten years old, he already has a premonition that his parents may leave him forever.
For a moment, Yaqis, who was only sixteen years old, didn't know how to comfort his little brother. He just hugged Angel, patted his back and comforted him:
"Angel, don't be sad, my brother will always be with you." By your side." Soon, Yaqis climbed out of the cellar entrance with Angel in his arms.
Ten-year-old Angel saw his mother's body lying on the ground at the entrance of the yard, and tears burst out uncontrollably.
"What a poor child." Everyone couldn't help but sigh.
Soon, Li Wei and his party searched the entire village, but could not find a second survivor.
The fort in the center of the village was a tragic place. More than 200 villagers were brutally killed by werewolves there.
It can be seen from the traces at the scene that they fought fiercely during their lifetimes, but all this was in vain in the face of absolute strength.
Finally, after analysis by Levi, Bellam and others, they came to such a conclusion.
First of all, this orc army should be mainly composed of werewolves, or even entirely composed of werewolves.
Secondly, there are a lot of them, and the quality of their individual soldiers is not low. At least they were able to surround the village and massacre all the villagers very calmly without letting anyone out.
Third, this orc army is indeed alone and lacks logistical supplies. The livestock in the village were plundered, the granary was forcibly broken open, and a lot of grain was stolen.
"Lord Baron, I think the first priority is to inform the nearby defenders about the existence of this werewolf army.
Secondly, I think that in order to ensure our own safety, we should also let Fat Zi take us out of the Evernight Forest as soon as possible. "
Yaqis next to him had red eyes and said nothing. He really wanted to take revenge on this orc army, but the reality was before his eyes and he didn't have enough strength.
He had listened carefully to Bellam and Levi's analysis before, and based on his own judgment, this werewolf army had at least several hundred people.
Moreover, there are quite a few experts at the Meteor and Silver Moon levels among them. Just a few of them want to take revenge on this werewolf army. It is simply a fantasy. It is true that they need to join in.
Levi didn't speak, he just unfolded the somewhat crude map of the Evernight Forest and the surrounding areas.
After carefully comparing the location of Hewan Village and the important military nodes around it, Li Wei boldly made his own judgment.
"Luke's Fortress! This orc army should go to the direction of Luke's Fortress and guard the logistics transport team from Luke's Fortress to the front line!"
Under the questioning eyes of everyone, Levi patiently explained:
"Near the Evernight Forest , there are indeed several very valuable military targets, such as Luke's Fortress and Nansang Ferry.
However, these military targets are guarded by a considerable number of troops, and cannot be easily shaken by 1,000 werewolf elites.
Werewolves are not good at attacking fortresses. , they are better at long-distance raids and field battles, and they are not here to die. They should attack targets that are easier to attack.
Moreover, it takes a full seven days for a food transport team to arrive at the front line from Luke Fortress. If the werewolves After killing one or two food transport teams in one section, it would be difficult for the frontline and rear Luke Fortress to react to
the werewolf's elite interleaving team, and there would be enough time to retreat to the Evernight Forest and return the same way.
Now leading to There are three food transport channels on the front line, one of which is towards Luke's Fortress.
I am boldly guessing here that this time the old Beast King should have sent more than one such interleaved team to attack the food channels of the frontline army.
If there are problems with the logistics transport troops in several directions at the same time, the frontline army will definitely be shaken.
By then, the orc army, which already has a huge advantage in strength, may take the opportunity to overwhelm the Kingdom's defenders on the front line. ”
