"Have the person who requested reinforcements returned?!"

It was almost evening when the anxious captain of the Crazy Wolf Mercenary Wick rushed into the Mercenary Union again.

But the only response to him was the sighs of the room.

"Hey, why is there no news yet!!"

"Be patient, Wick. Even if our request for help is successful, reinforcements cannot arrive now, whether it is Domiyar, Balanyi or Saha. At least, they have to wait until tomorrow. As long as we can survive tonight, the camp will be saved." Sur, the commander of the Silver Wind Mercenary, understood Wick's mood. He also wanted the rescue troops to arrive as soon as possible, but that was impossible.

Even the most advanced city of Domiar takes one day to travel back and forth. In any case, we can't wait for the rescue troops tonight.

"Can I not be anxious? You also know the rumors about the Lizardman. No village or city has ever been spared in their hands. Half a year ago, these monsters attacked Farian, and all the villages and people in the city along the way were slaughtered. If the church had not come forward, the Lizardman would have directly attacked the capital." Wick walked back and forth anxiously in the not-so-large union hall, which seemed very urgent; "especially the city of Berunza in Farian. That

But Farley's largest military base on the eastern border has a force of 60,000 troops. Only more than 10,000 lizard man troops not only captured the entire fortress, but also massacred all the residents of the city. This is beyond common sense, Sur!! I have long been thinking, maybe some evil power is controlling behind the scenes, otherwise how could those lizard men who were far away fighting for minerals with underground dwarves suddenly start to attack human villages and cities?

"What evil power do you think is that? The night elves underground in the north? The undead wizard of the Death Leader in the sand? Wick... No matter which one is, it is not something we can resist. Stop thinking about those meaningless things. What we need to face now is this almost invincible lizard man. The night is coming, and how to spend it safely is what we need to consider." Sure of course knew what Wick said. If there is any force behind the lizard man, the mercenaries in the camp would definitely not be able to fight against it.

In the early morning, after arriving at the mound near the camp, the Lizardman did not move forward any further, but he knew very well that this was just the other party's habit.

Before the sun sets, the lizardman will not attack humans. Although he does not understand why these creatures with human torso have such a custom, this quirk also bought some time for the Saquin people to ask for help.

What is most worrying at the moment is how to fight against these brute force and smart creatures with the current force of the camp.

Any human settlement that is attacked by lizardmen at night, neither ordinary small villages nor well-equipped fortresses, cannot escape the fate of being massacred.

Although the recent frequent attacks on humans by the Lizardmen have been highly valued by nearby countries, since the Saquin area is quite special, if there is no support from the army, it is impossible to rely solely on the poor team of the Saquin mercenaries, no matter what, it is impossible to go deep into the depths of the South Gilcook Mountains to investigate the truth.

After taking on the investigation mission, those volunteer adventurers never returned from the lush forests again. There is no way to know why the lizardman could destroy humanity at night.

Alas... Should we really open the door and let the merchants leave?

Staying away from the protection of mercenaries, these lonely ordinary people are even more unable to leave alive.

Sighing deeply, Sur fell into deep thought.

"Come, come..."

Just when everyone was at a loss, the guards responsible for keeping the watch stumbled in.

"What's coming? Reinforcements?!" Wick rushed out first.

"I hope it's better not to attack the lizard man..." Su Ke was most afraid of not waiting for reinforcements, but the lizard man who launched the attack.

The union leader and the mercenary leader rushed to the high mail tower, and a team rushed to the northwest of Saquin's camp, with a number of about a thousand people.

The red thorn badge on the silver flag fluttering in the wind was very conspicuous, and with the large number of orcs in the team, the guards standing on the mail tower all alertly reached out to their weapons.

"Wait...let them come in." After careful determination, Sur ordered the Silver Wind Mercenary Corps Commander to put the team into the camp.

"Sur!! Why did you put them in? Didn't you see that they had so many orcs? Maybe they were in the same group as the Lizardman." Wick shouted, but unfortunately the mixed team had already entered the camp. Even if he stopped it, it would be useless.

"Don't worry, Wick, they are definitely not accomplices of the Lizardman. See, that sign." Pointing at the blood-red thorn badge, Sur showed a relieved smile.

"Blood-colored thorn..." Wick then noticed the already eye-catching flag.

"Yes, it's them. I was thinking about why both regiment commanders came, but they didn't see their subordinates. Now they finally came. With one more mercenary, we have more strength to resist the lizardman." As soon as Suer finished speaking, a black shadow was seen covering the camp. The huge demon dragon had already landed on the open space in the center of the camp before people could come back to their senses.

"You are back..." Su Ke happily greeted him and welcomed the two people who jumped off the back of the demon dragon with great joy.

"I have tried my best to lead some lizard men to the direction of the temple, and the rest depends on our luck..." Moya said that she had done her best, but there are still a large number of lizard men outside the camp.

"No, we are very grateful for your help. Although we don't know if we can survive tonight... but we will try our best to protect the entire camp." Suk repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Moya, and also expressed his concern about whether the camp can be preserved.

"Indeed, I heard that there are no survivors in the villages and cities that the Lizardmen attacked at night." He could have left, but in order to find out the secret, Moya specially summoned the original blood-colored mercenaries who were standing by outside a nearby village.

The mercenary group that had been more destined to the Blood-colored Thorns not only replenished some new blood, but also absorbed some mercenaries in the city of Merri. Of course, they were mainly mixed-race people. Half-elves and half-orcs accounted for the vast majority of this mercenary group. The former leader Seus is now the deputy leader, and is fully responsible for the big and small matters when Moya is away.

However, compared with the two newly appointed leaders, the mercenary group is much less famous.

Although there are no dangerous creatures and areas on the Eastern Continent on other continents, Moya is confident that few creatures can pose a threat to her. Even the ancient lizardmen are the same. Although these ancient species hiding in the deep mountains have some subtle connections with the dragon race, she will not be afraid of them, who has become the actual rulers of the night elves.

"In terms of quantity, we are still below. Moreover, I am very worried about the rumor. After all, I have never fought with the Lizard Man, so I don't know why they are particularly powerful at night. Maybe you shouldn't take this risk, retreat to Domiar first, which is safer there." Sistaer hinted that Moya would not care about this camp. How could he resist the Lizard Man who was nearly three times more than they were with mercenaries of less than five thousand people?

"I know what you mean, but... I won't leave. At least I won't leave until reinforcements arrive." Moya flatly rejected Sistale's proposal.

It’s not that she wanted to take risks, but that she really wanted to know what made the Lizardman, a creature that was not peaceful, suddenly become extremely cruel.

The wise lizard man had never had the habit of eating man before. As a member of the half-beast, no one could eat man. This abnormal behavior made Moya particularly curious.

"This time I really launched an attack!!" The guards in charge of keeping the watch were shot down the sentry tower with an arrow.

The lizardmen, who were originally hiding on the mound, walked out of their hiding place after the sun was completely set, and shot down the guards of the sentry tower as soon as they made a move.

"fight back!!"

Wick organized other people who were on the mail tower to fight back.

A large number of arrowheads shot at the lizardman, but only a small part of them hit the lizardman standing on the edge of the maximum range.

"It's really damn. The lizard men's arm strength is stronger than that of humans, and the shooting distance of these guys' bows is much further than the bows used by humans. Our bows and arrows rarely hurt them." Sur immediately realized that relying solely on long-range distances would not cause severe damage to the lizard men.

At this time, Moya took off the magic bow that she hung around her waist like a sword.

This is like a strange-shaped stick stretching from a twisted shape like a magic trick, and finally becomes a longbow with a truly bow shape.

The black bow body was wrapped in a faint silver fluorescent light, and the colorless transparent crystal as big as a child's fist emitted a strange light, which attracted the eyes of all those who were watching it.

The arrow with a silver arrowhead was placed on a long bow without strings, and the red flame suddenly rushed out in front of everyone, causing people to be amazed.

"Magic Arrow..."

Amid the discussion, Moya shot an arrow that had burned into a fireball.

With a "swoosh!", after a round lonely wave passed through the air, the magic arrow landed in the lizardmen's team at an extremely fast speed.

"Shield-holding soldier."

Seeing a fire-like arrow flying from the camp, the commander with bright green scales ordered the lizard soldiers holding the giant shield to step forward.

I thought I could easily block this arrow, but the flames on the arrow suddenly exploded, and the flames that were even hotter than before ignited the shield-holding lizard soldier, and the lizard soldier immediately made a tragic hiss.

"Magic Arrow?!"

Before the commander could recover from his surprise, the red flame had already spread rapidly on the ground. In an instant, many lizard soldiers were ignited by the flames one after another, and then they fell to the ground with charred whole bodies.

"Do not to avoid it quickly. This is a regional spell. Don't stand together in a dense manner and disperse it!!"

With the order issued, the lizards that were originally concentrated scattered in size, but some of them were still unable to hide in time and were burned to death by the rapidly spreading flames on the ground.

"So amazing, what kind of magic is that?!" The mercenaries who witnessed this scene in the camp were talking in a low voice.
