Chapter 36 Gnoll Tribe(2/2)
As time passed, they unknowingly entered deeper into the plane fragments. The surrounding trees became denser and lusher, and they encountered more and more unknown creatures. However, most of them didn't notice after seeing their numbers.
Show up, only a few brainless people dare to rush in occasionally, and everything becomes their spoils.
Li Qing planned to go north first, to the northernmost point of the plane fragment, and planned to take a look at the super large plane fragment mentioned by the northern instructor, and then turn right to return.
About fifteen hours after they set off, the team passed through an extremely dense primitive jungle. Suddenly, a semi-dry river valley appeared in front of them.
The river valley is thirty to forty meters wide, and most of it is dry gravel. Only in the center of the river is a small stream less than one meter deep that winds into the distance.
The team entered the river valley and were surprised by several unknown black figures who were drinking water.
Several night crows flapped their wings and passed over their heads.
"Look, there's fire there!"
Li Qing followed the direction An Yiqiu pointed, which was very far to the right of the river valley. On the right side of the river valley, where they were, there were several groups of firelights of different sizes flashing.
"Is there a foreign tribe here?"
Li Qing immediately became energetic, thought for a moment, and said to Xie Zhu beside him:
"Are you good at field reconnaissance?"
Xie Zhu shook his head and said:
"I'm not good at it, but my brother can do it."
A warrior who had been standing next to him in leather armor and two daggers stood up and said:
"I take the route of an agile warrior, and I usually work part-time as a scout in our team."
Li Qing looked him up and down, nodded and said:
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It's a piece of cake!"
Xie Jin held the dagger behind his back and turned towards the river valley.
Li Qing found that after he turned around, his steps became lighter and his figure quickly became blurry and difficult to detect under the cover of night. He guessed that it was some kind of concealment skill.
However, although his body was no longer visible, Li Qing's powerful soul gave him super strong perception, and he could vaguely detect a figure in the darkness ahead.
"We still need a professional reconnaissance hero!"
Although Xie Jin's concealment ability is strong, he cannot hide it from powerful beings with a higher rank than him.
However, if stealth skills can be converted into heroic skills, the effect will be greatly enhanced. Even those with a higher level will have difficulty detecting them. If they are those with low perception, they may not be able to detect them even if they are at the third or fourth level.
However, this is a future plan, and Xie Jin's abilities are fully sufficient at this stage.
After resting on the spot for almost half an hour, Li Qing suddenly felt something and turned his head to look in a certain direction. He suddenly stretched out his finger and saw a ball of white light condensed more than 20 meters away from him, rising slowly to illuminate the surrounding area.
It also illuminated the twisted outline of a human figure in the darkness.
The figure that was slowly approaching paused for a moment, then blurred and disappeared. It was Xie Jin.
He asked in surprise:
"Your Excellency Li Qing, can you sense me from so far away?"
Li Qing shook his head:
"I didn't sense you. I just had a sudden whim. I felt that there seemed to be something over there, so I used the light technique to shine it."
Xie Jin marveled:
"It's better than feeling it."
"Yeah."
He waved his hand and did not dwell on the question, but asked:
"Did you find anything when you just went there?"
Xie Jin took a sip from the water bottle handed over by his brother Xie Heng, wiped his mouth and said:
"There is indeed a seemingly large-scale alien tribe over there. They are forest gnolls and some kobold servants. The scale is quite large. I walked around and found that it was a large tent that could accommodate more than a dozen people.
There are fifty or sixty of them, and there are a dozen larger wooden houses inside, and there is a stone hall at the end, which should be the place where the leader lives."
"so much?"
Li Qing pinched his chin and thought deeply.
According to Xie Jin's reconnaissance, if the place is full, the total number of jackals and kobolds may be hundreds or even thousands.
This is even more powerful than the more than 4,000 skeletons that previously challenged the fifth level.
The skeletons are all at level 0. There are definitely a lot of gnolls and kobolds who are at level 1 or 2, and there are definitely wild monsters and heroes, so it is not a big deal to defeat them head-on in the wild.
But it’s not a big problem. If you can’t beat me head-on, I can cheat!
Thinking of this, Li Qing took out a piece of paper and a pen and handed them to Xie Jin:
"Come on, draw a map of the terrain around where the gnolls gather."
Xie Jin was stunned for a moment:
"The surrounding terrain? What about inside?"
"Yes, the surrounding terrain, the more detailed the better, don't worry about the inside."
"Uh, okay."
Although he was a little confused, he still picked up the pen and started drawing.
