C1409 Enemies Sneak Attack the Camp
Even so, the Awakened Legion had suffered heavy losses, and their morale had been greatly reduced.
After that battle, the terrain within a few miles of them had undergone a huge change. The combat strength of the High Rank Mutant Beast was truly terrifying.
As for the entire Awakened Legion, it was in an extremely sorry state. After finding a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, they set up camp and rested. Because the chairman of the Jiangnan Awakened Guild, Liu Zheng, and the vice chairman of the Devil City Awakened Guild, Faang Yu, were both seriously injured, the two awakened ones from the Awakened Guild looked panicked. One by one, they guarded the tents of the two presidents, guarding the two of them.
Fortunately, in the two guilds, other than the combat awakened ones, there were also many medical Awakened ones that lasted for three days. Under constant treatment, Liu Zheng and Faang Yu's injuries were mostly healed. Although their strength had only recovered by seventy to eighty percent, the Awakened ones from the two guilds heaved a sigh of relief. Their guild leader had awakened, and their backbone had returned.
As for those medical Awakened ones, due to the continuous treatment for three days without sleep, they were too tired and directly fell asleep.
When Liu Zheng and Faang Yu saw this, they also asked people to take good care of those medical Awakened ones. As for those Awakened ones guarding outside the tent, the two of them also sent them back to their tents to rest. There were many Awakened ones who did not sleep for three days and three nights. They were all loyal supporters of Liu Zheng and Faang Yu.
It was the same for the Awakened ones in the entire camp. They rested for two days before recovering their vitality.
However, to everyone's surprise, during these few days, they did not seem to have encountered any more High Rank Mutant Beast attacks on their camp. They also had a short period of leisure time.
"Looks like the batch of High Rank Mutant Beast from before is the strongest and most luxurious Mutant Beast formation that the Ice Turtle can find. Now that we've killed those Mutant Beast, the Ice Turtle doesn't dare to move recklessly for a moment."
In Shi Taotao's tent, Shi Taotao's expression was a rare relief as she spoke slowly.
"That Ice Turtle can command the High Rank Mutant Beast. To him... No matter how high grade the Mutant Beast is, it is just cannon fodder. There is no need to worry about losing it. It should have sent the High Rank Mutant Beast to hunt us down and tire us out.
Wang Xiao said with a solemn expression.
Shi Taotao frowned slightly when she heard Wang Xiao's words. She said, "Wang Xiao, what you mean is..."
"It seems that the Ice Turtle has recovered a lot of its strength. It is confident that it will be able to face us..." Wang Xiao said with a serious expression.
"Wang Xiao, you're saying that the reason why the Ice Turtle didn't send the High Rank Mutant Beast over is to let us pass? It wants to see us again?"
Shi Taotao's face revealed a hint of shock as she said.
"Now it seems that it is indeed so."
Wang Xiao nodded and said, "This is also the only explanation. Otherwise, it should continue to send High Rank Mutant Beast to lure us away."
Shi Taotao's expression became serious when she heard Wang Xiao's words. If what Wang Xiao said was true, it meant that the Ice Turtle was confident that it could fight them. Otherwise, it would not have done such a thing.
"This time, it will be troublesome..."
Shi Taotao frowned and said.
"But it will be troublesome." Wang Xiao nodded and said, "Recently, we haven't encountered any mutated animals in our camp. It's like the mutated animals nearby have been transferred away."
"If I'm not wrong, there must be a large number of High Rank Mutant Beasts gathered around the Ice Turtle. They are waiting for us to die, and..."
At the end, Wang Xiao stopped and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"And what?" Shi Taotao's face revealed a trace of doubt when she heard this and asked.
"It's nothing. I just feel that there are so many High Rank Mutant Beasts beside that Ice Turtle. It will not be so easy for us to see that Ice Turtle." Wang Xiao shook his head and said with a smile.
Originally, Wang Xiao wanted to say that besides the Ice Turtle, there were also those who wanted to obtain the Ice Turtle. They also wanted to die.
After the intense battle, the entire Awakened Legion had lost a third of their people. Compared to the time when they had just entered the Dark Bog Jungle, the number of people in the Awakened Legion was less than half. It could be said that their strength had been reduced by half, which was the best opportunity for them to attack.
Perhaps in some people's eyes, when the leader of the Jiangnan Awakened Guild, Liu Zheng, and the vice leader of the Devil City Awakened Guild, Faang Yu, were seriously injured, it was the best opportunity for them to launch a sneak attack on the encampment. However, this was not the case.
At that time, the entire Awakened Legion had just experienced a great battle. It was the time when the Fighting Intent was in high spirits, and when the two leaders were receiving treatment. If someone were to launch a sneak attack on the camp, they would definitely risk their lives and kill those who attacked the camp.
A group of crazy wolves were even more lethal than a group of hungry tigers and leopards.0
Now, the two guild leaders had fully recovered and they had rested for two days. Many undiscovered injuries gradually appeared on the surface of their bodies, especially when they relaxed. Any movement of their muscles would cause them to feel as if they were filled with lead.
Attacking the camp at this time was the slowest and easiest time for everyone to succeed.
Therefore, Wang Xiao was somewhat worried that someone would attack the camp tonight.
Shi Taotao did not know what Wang Xiao was thinking in his heart. After hearing Wang Xiao's words, she also nodded and agreed, "If it is really as you have guessed, then it will be even more difficult for us to get close to that Ice Turtle."
"But this Ice Turtle is one of the four divine beasts of our country. We must not let it fall into the hands of ordinary ancient martial forces. We must bring it back!"
Seeing Shi Taotao's serious expression, Wang Xiao nodded and didn't say anything.
...
At night, in the entire camp, other than the footsteps of the patrolling Awakened ones, there was only the crackling sound of the bonfire burning. Most of the Awakened ones had already returned to their tents to rest early.
Wang Xiao sat on a large tree and quietly admired the pure white moon above his head.
Below him was Shi Taotao's tent.
Because he didn't know if anyone would sneak attack the camp, it was better for him to stand by Shi Taotao's side as soon as possible.
However, he did not know if Wang Xiao was thinking too much. He waited for a long time, but he did not hear anyone approaching him. The camp was quiet, and the moon was getting brighter. There was no movement until two o'clock in the morning.
"Looks like I was thinking too much."
After sitting on the tree until two o'clock in the morning, Wang Xiao said with a helpless smile on his face.
Just as he was about to get down from the tree and return to his tent to sleep, the Profound Snake Sword that he had hidden within the Universe Ring suddenly emitted a sword cry. Wang Xiao's expression also changed abruptly.
