Assassin’s Adventure - Chapter 140
“What do you think the angel means?”
In the flickering firelight, Burton asked after taking a gulp of the broth, then frowned.
The broth is indeed a bit unpleasant, with a small amount of salt and no more condiments, the mutton taste of the mutton is so clear.
“I’m not quite sure, it may just refer to the waterfall, or it may be some kind of key, or timing.” Gordon took two sips of ale and shook his head.
“Jon, is there any more information?”
Jon sitting next to him also shook his head helplessly: “Captain, I only know so much. Unless there is something else recorded in Colonel Adudin’s log.”
Even if Jon is the adjutant of the Explorer, it is impossible to know everything. There are many things that only the captain knows.
“Then we can only catch up with the Spaniards and grab the log.”
“Brigadier General, do you want to go to war? We haven’t found anything yet.”
Gore was a little hesitant on the side. They had already fought the Spaniards for no reason. The fortress was smashed and the soldiers were killed and injured a lot.
“Since the war has already started, let’s fight it to the end, haha, my adjutant, when did you start to soften your heart?”
Burton didn’t care much, just smiled. They had fought several major battles with the Spaniards, and until now there are still frequent conflicts over the division of colonies.
“Of course not, Brigadier General, I follow your will.” Gore quickly expressed his loyalty, he just felt that it would be silly if he ended up fighting and didn’t get anything.
It was night. The whole camp was quiet. The soldiers on patrol made the sound of clicking footsteps as they walked around in a meeting. The shadow of the elder was drawn in the flickering firelight.
There were wolf howls from time to time in the forest, and almost no one could sleep soundly.
A special soldier is responsible for adding some dry wood to the fire to ensure that the fire is needed to ensure that the camp is not attacked by wild animals.
“Hey, Ron, we’re running out of firewood, where’s the firewood left?”
Soldiers dozing by the fire are awakened from a daze.
“Well, on the other side of the fence, have all the nearby ones burned out?”
“Go back to sleep, I’ll go get some.”
When they landed on the shore in the evening, they cut down a lot of trees, some of them set up tents, and some of them were used for burning and building walls.
The soldier patted the dirt on his body, and then walked towards the place where the fence was, which was not too far away.
The wolf howl still sounded in the night sky, it seemed to be far away.
He just buried his head and held a lot of firewood. When he raised his head, he saw the dense green eyes in the jungle.
“It’s a pack of wolves!” he shouted in a panic!
Then he instantly dropped the firewood in his hand, and tried his best to remove the long spear behind him.
“Wolves!” he shouted loudly.
But in this place where the fire couldn’t shine, the shout directly angered the wolves. The alpha wolf let out a low roar, and then pounced directly with its teeth bared.
In this jungle, the beasts have basically never seen people. They don’t know what skills these upright creatures have. They have no sharp claws, no thick fur, and no sharp or huge roars.
The wolves have been hungry all day. They are watching the fire, and they are a little afraid. They have waited for too long, but these things like sunlight will not cause them any harm, so the hunting begins.
The most ferocious and largest alpha wolf moved quickly, directly over the fence that was originally made of shoddy work.
This is a large-scale hunting group consisting of forty forest wolves. Led by the head wolf, or the wolf king, they have the confidence to eat this camp.
boom!
The muzzle spewed flames, and the sound was so loud in the night sky that it instantly woke everyone up.
“There are gunshots!”
The people in the patrol had already reflected when they shouted, and there were sharp whistles along with the sound of gunfire.
The whole camp started to make noise.
In the panic, the soldier’s bullet did not hit the head wolf’s body. The flames and sound were very scary, but they did not cause any actual damage.
The wolves were a little scared, and many Timberwolves turned their heads and ran away in fright, and then wandered outside the fence, daring not to get close.
However, under the roar of the alpha wolf, these wolves, who had been hungry for a day, still followed their hunger and started the attack again.
The wolves swarmed up, and the soldiers who fired had already been pounced on. The razor-sharp fangs and claws shredded the fragile clothing, and the flesh and blood could not stop it, and they were instantly dismembered.
The patrolling soldiers had already rushed over, and looking at the swarming wolves, they raised their spears directly.
“Free to fire!”
Intensive gunshots sounded, and more soldiers rushed out of the tent, some with crooked hats and guns.
The sound of the muskets undoubtedly frightened these beasts, and some Timberwolves began to run about in the camp, biting the soldiers who rushed out of the tent.
The scene was very chaotic, soldiers were bitten to death from time to time, but they no longer dared to shoot casually, and they were likely to hit their own people in the chaos.
Burton got out of the tent and could only shout when he saw the chaos. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
“Everyone kept calm, moved closer to my position, and brought the fish oil and gunpowder over.”
For these beasts, they need more fire and explosions to stop them.
The soldiers found the backbone and began to move towards the central tent.
“Prepare!”
The rows of soldiers raised their muskets and half-knelt on the ground.
“Fire!”
The firing of muskets in rows began to shock these beasts, and many Timberwolves were directly shot and fell to the ground, making a whimpering sound.
More soldiers escaped the danger, and then began to repair the central position.
Gordon and the sailors’ tents were originally on the edge of the wolves attack, and when they heard whistles and gunshots, there were Timberwolves running around everywhere.
He wisely gave the same order as Burton: “All sailors move toward the middle!”
They were a little too far from Burton’s position, and there were a lot of navy soldiers in the camp. The sound of muskets deterred these beasts, and the torches made them not dare to go forward, but they did not leave.
This is really a very abnormal phenomenon. Not only are there too many adult wolves in the wolf pack, but they are obviously afraid of fire, but they do not retreat.
“Ow~ woo…”
On the top of the towering mountain, there are also howling wolves, which seem to be calling for more wolves.
A wild wolf has already dragged away the corpses of sailors and soldiers who were unfortunately bitten to death, and started a delicious meal.
“Keep firing, don’t stop!”
Sailors began to charge gunpowder and kept firing.
The bullets killed a lot of Timberwolves, and they gradually learned to be obedient and retreated into the jungle.
But the green eyes in the grass proved that it didn’t stop there.
