Chapter 67 Returning overnight
At the beginning of the battle, although there were many people in Heimuzhaishan, the hunters in Tami Village were not at a disadvantage. Instead, they still had an advantage at the beginning.
Although there are fewer hunters in Tami Village, their personal strength is much stronger than those of these mountain people, because after the last battle and the training these days, their strength is twice as strong as the last battle. It is not only the improvement of attribute points, but also the mentality and combat methods have become more proficient.
Since that battle, Nord has allowed them to cooperate with two or three people every day in addition to personal training. This is the experience Nord summed up after that battle.
Moreover, according to Nord, cooperation between each other on the battlefield is more important than personal courage. After all, fierce people like Lehman are rare, and most people are relatively mediocre, so they need mutual cooperation between comrades.
Just like the current situation, although the hunters in Tami Village easily solved their opponents with their personal strength and equipment, after all, there were many mountain people, and the battle gradually became more anxious.
Marco and Old Moore are closer. Although Old Moore's archery skills are superb, his body has gradually aged and his physical strength is no longer as good as before. With his previous combat experience and the system training bonuses over the past few days, Old Moore can still deal with these tough mountain villagers, but as the battle continues, Old Moore begins to become unable to do so.
Marco noticed this and slowly moved closer to Old Moore to assist Old Moore in the fight. Looking at Marco who came beside him, a hint of gratitude flashed in Old Moore's eyes, and then he was excited. After all, Old Moore didn't feel that he was old enough to fight.
These are not just isolated cases. As the battle progressed, these hunters involuntarily began to gradually get closer and cooperate, especially as the fierce battle progressed, the hunters' formation became more compact.
This is due to the tacit understanding of daily training. Although the hunters are already scarred and shaky, their cooperation still makes them persevere.
In fact, part of the reason is that the mountain people in Heimuzhai were also scared by their own casualties. Although they were very brave, they were not brainless after all. From the war to the present, more than half of them have suffered casualties. Looking at the shaking enemy like the fire of a candle, they can still defend tacitly under their attack, and the mountain people hesitated.
The mountain people were still hesitating, but when they turned around, they suddenly found that their leader had fled. They suddenly lost the desire to fight in their hearts. They put down the wooden spears in their hands, and fled in a panic like a dog from a family family.
The hunters who saw this scene suddenly felt a sigh of relief in their hearts, and some even fell to the ground, and they didn't even have the strength to stand. They rely entirely on one breath to support them. Now that their hearts have dissipated, they can't hold on at all.
Lehman walked into the team, prosecuting casualties one by one, and urged them to bandage the wounds quickly. It was not the time to rest.
Fortunately, no hunter died, but almost everyone was injured, even Marco was no exception. His left arm was stabbed by a mountain man beside him, but it was only skin trauma and no bones were injured. Three other hunters were seriously injured and had some inconvenience to move.
Lehman told the hunters to take a break for a while and set off immediately later. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. Old Moore heard Lehman's decision and walked to him and whispered to him.
"Leiman, why not go back to Yuanshanzhai first. Now the brothers are seriously injured and are inconvenient to walk..."
Before Old Moore finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lehman. Looking at Old Moore, whose blood was still seeping in his abdomen, Lehman still made up his mind to leave immediately.
"No, we don't know if this attack has anything to do with Yuanshanzhai. With our current state, returning to Yuanshanzhai is too risky. The most important thing now is to return to Tami Village immediately and investigate other matters later."
Looking at Lehman who was determined, Old Moore opened his mouth, but he swallowed it again when he spoke. Lehman's decision was indeed fine. He had not returned for more than 20 years, Old Moore could not guarantee that Yuanshanzhai would have nothing to do with this attack. After all, they had just left Yuanshanzhai and were attacked.
Lehman quickly asked the hunters to bandage the wound and stop the blood first, so as not to affect the injury due to the next trip. Looking at the scarred hunters, Lehman announced his departure.
The seriously injured person was inconvenient to walk with the help of his companions and walked slowly. Those with minor injuries carried more supplies. For example, Lehman was covered with bundles of fur, which looked a bit funny. Because only Lehman was not injured in this group, he could only let Lehmando take care of him.
Even at night, people did not let everyone rest. Lehman decided to return overnight because Lehman was afraid that the smell of blood on everyone's body would attract some wild beasts in the dark, but instead, it would be safer if he kept moving.
So at noon the next day, the group returned to Tami Village in a tired and embarrassing manner. Nord, who was about to go to Luofu to discuss things, was shocked. He didn't know what had happened, but just went into the mountain to trade, so why did he look like this.
All the staff were injured and didn't seem to have any supplies on them. Could it be that they were black? Yuanshanzhai had such courage and really thought I was bullied by Nord? Although Nord was very angry, his remaining reason told him that things should not be that simple.
Although Nord was anxious, he quickly arranged for them to rest. After being so seriously injured and rushing in the jungle for so long, these hunters had reached their limits both physically and mentally.
After arranging the injured hunters, Lehman did not choose to rest, but came to the study, reported to Nord, and told Nord some of his guesses.
After hearing Lehman's report, Nord realized that he had misunderstood because Lehman had temporarily hidden the traded animal skin at Cindy's stronghold. Because everyone's physical strength had reached its limit at that time, bringing these supplies was just a drag, so Lehman put down the supplies and went into battle lightly, which was also the reason for Nord's misunderstanding.
After knowing the actual situation, Nord did not agree with Lehman's speculation. If Yuan Shanzhai wanted to be a gangster, he could just do it in the mountain village. There was no need to run outside to ambush. Nord had a good impression of Harlen, thinking that this wise old man would not do such a stupid thing. It was obvious that working with Nord was more beneficial to him.
