Rise of the Plants

The army quickly packed up the camp, and the large tent was quickly dismantled and mounted on the wagon. Now that the rear has ordered a retreat, it is impossible for them to stay here, and there will be no supply replenishment if they stay here.

When the time comes to fight alone, even a layman like Chi Nan knows what the result will be.

"This is our destination, Blackstone Fortress. As long as we reach Blackstone Fortress, we will be safe." At this moment, the bald father was showing Chi Nan a simple map. It was really simple.

There are only a few thin lines on this map that I don’t know what they mean. I’m afraid the person who drew this map can’t understand them. It's really hard for this bald dad to be able to understand such a simple graffiti.

At this moment, many soldiers were already on the road. They were all very fast, and no one dared to neglect them.

"Blackstone Fortress, how far is it from us?"

The bald father raised his head: "According to our current marching speed, we will arrive in about two days. If there is any danger on the road, the cavalry team can speed up and get back faster."

Cavalry? Are there any cavalry here? Suddenly Chi Nan understood that the so-called cavalry was those who rode on horses. After all, there are only a few senior officials and the escorts around them. The total number of these people is less than a hundred. They used to follow Kian and Keladi on the battlefield, and they would only rush forward when the final battle was over.

No wonder I ignored these people. So the so-called cavalry retreat means that these people abandoned other soldiers and ran away. Damn it, I should have thought long ago that these damn nobles only have eyes for themselves.

Really, so envious. That's right, Chi Nan is filled with envy right now. The privileges of the nobility are too many. While Chi Nan despises them, he also wants to become one of them.

"Quickly, take them all with you. These are all our efforts. We can't just throw them away."

Behind him, Keladi was still loudly instructing the soldiers to transport the ears of the wild orcs away. For these ears, Kelardi gave up a truckload of supplies without hesitation and made room to transport these military achievements.

Kian and Sokka were not surprised at all. Perhaps in their eyes, military merit was more important than anything else.

"Sir, don't waste time. Leave as soon as possible. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

Chi Nan was stunned for a moment: "Then what should you do? You may not be able to keep up with such a fast marching speed."

Chi Nan looked at the bald father. This old man was quite senior. He usually worked in the army as a logistics worker and followed him. And Holm couldn't walk too fast with that leg.

A flash of relief flashed in the bald father's eyes: "Don't worry, sir. Although I am older, I am a veteran after all. This distance will not trouble me. But that guy Holm, I'm afraid it won't be able to."

Holm's face was expressionless, as if he was not the one who was about to be unable to keep up with the team. Chi Nan hesitated. Although one leg was sent to monitor him, Chi Nan still couldn't watch a familiar person die.

Thinking of this, Chi Nan simply said: "I'm not familiar with horseback riding. One leg, no, Holm, you come up and take me on horseback. Dad, please follow and don't fall behind. I believe that with my ability, they will not abandon me casually." of."

Chi Nan also knew that he was acting out of motivation, but he really couldn't convince himself to give up the people he knew well, at least not until the last moment. I really didn't expect that I was still a Holy Mother. Chi Nan despised herself in her heart. But what Chi Nan didn't see was that there was something extra in the eyes of Yiyi Leg and the bald father looking at him.

"Okay, let's do it like this. You go up One Leg, and I'll leave it to you to protect the adults." The bald dad said the nickname One Leg for the first time in front of Holm. After speaking, he laughed loudly and walked forward. go.

Holm took a deep breath and said nothing more: "Leave your safety to me, let's go." Holm nimbly climbed onto the horse's back and pulled Chi Nan up with a wave of his hand. Then without saying anything, he rode away.

Even the things he carries are actually very few. In addition to some necessary dry food, Chi Nan, one of the team members, also brought some various seeds and put them in a small box. Dad was holding a crutch, and on one leg was the long bow he had used in previous battles.

Because they were traveling lightly, they were still very fast. The only thing slowing him down was the bald father, but he didn't have any weight on him, so he ran much faster than the average soldier.

Keladi and others saw the situation on Chinan's side and came over to offer some words of persuasion. Seeing that Chi Nan was disobedient, he ignored him. Now that they don't need to fight head-on, what's the point of having a mage?

Just like that, the team set off on the road in an almost chaotic state. There was almost no formation during the rush. The concept of war in this world is too bad, Chi Nan suddenly had such a thought in his heart.

The chaotic march continued to retreat back. Until noon, the army encountered no obstacles along the way. At this rate, it would take less than two days to return to Blackstone Fortress. Along the way, the originally chaotic team gradually became somewhat organized. This was the result of Sokka's hard work.

However, just when Chi Nan thought there would be no danger, the crisis suddenly struck.

Just at noon, when the team was about to set up camp and rest, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded in a dense forest in the distance. Suddenly, a gray-white shadow appeared. What came out was a dog-like creature.

The skin on the body has marble-like patterns, and there is very little hair. There is only a ring of hair on the neck, some of which look like a lion. The huge fangs are exposed even when the mouth is closed.

A thick tail swings back and forth with extraordinary momentum. The sharp claws were like small knives, shining coldly in the sun. You can also see blood stains on some bodies. These things are not good at first glance.

"No, it's evil beast dogs. Everyone forms a formation to block them. Evil beast dogs can't appear alone. Don't run around." Kelardi pulled out his knight's sword and shouted loudly. Sure enough, evil beast dogs appeared one after another from behind. Behind, there were some wild orcs following behind, and they were a little dazed when they saw them.

"Hoho... they're human beings. Tear them to pieces and eat them." After being stunned for a moment, the orcs reacted. Roaring loudly and whipping the whip in the air, the evil beast dogs suddenly ran towards this side like crazy.
