Chapter 391: Marauders (2/2)

“Boss, there’s something!”Nangong Yun called from the forest.

She had found a giant bat that had been shot down with a Source Energy Gun.It wasn’t just one, there was a bunch of dead bats in the bushes.

The guards were different from the patrols.

The guards had Source Energy Weapons, so even if they encountered airborne units, they could still fight back.Those large bats that were dead in the forest, they must be the chief culprit for this ambush.

Meng Yingying carefully looked over the bats a few times.

These bats were truly big, each one being strong and sturdy and had long beast like claws, but they weren’t intelligent beings.Not far away, there was a strange strong and sturdy green skinned being.

This being was like an orc, having the same green skin, but it had a large amount of natural stripes.It was currently carrying a quiver filled with poisoned arrows and wielding a long bow.

Chu Tian knit his brows as he muttered, “Forest Trolls?”

Forest Trolls were a normal race in the forest.

The trolls had a very natural alchemy skill and were considered the alchemy masters of the forest, but they were greedy by nature, naturally liking to steal from others.If the guards were not provided with Source Energy Weapons, they wouldn’t have suffered any injuries.

Chu Tian knit his brows and said, “Now it can be explained.The trolls train bats and although they are only level one demon beasts, they are considered quite strong for level one demon beasts.They have very strong middle and short range explosive power and their ultrasonic bat waves can explore large patches of the forest, so they can lock onto armies from a far distance.This allows them to launch accurate ambushes that no one can guard against. The trolls excel in alchemy, so if they use their poison arrows, they could disrupt the battle strength of our army.”

Meng Yingying was even more confused.

Were the trolls just bored?

Why would they do this for no reason!

Chu Tian looked at the troll corpses and found a strange tattoo.It looked like a sword inserted into a skull.

“What mark is this?”

Each troll had the same mark on them.

Chu Tian felt very strange.This perhaps would be useful in identifying the other side, so he called several orcs over to take a look at it.Perhaps these locals would be able to recognize it.

Who would have known that.

When the orcs saw this tattoo, they immediately began trembling with fear.

“I….I know this!”An orc said with a face filled with fear, “They are the Troll Marauders!It’s over, we’re in the sights of the Marauders, it’s all over! The small town can’t be protected!”

“Fuck, what nonsense are you saying?”Nangong Yun directly slapped him, “Your mother can’t be protected!If you keep speaking nonsense, do you believe I won’t beat your to death!”

“Nangong!”Chu Tian stopped Nangong Yun.He felt this situation was not simple, “What is the matter with the Marauders?”

Nangong Yun fierce nature had scared the orcs very much, so they could only confess honestly.

Not all the races in the Forest of Chaos settled in towns or villages, there were several races that were nomads.The troll race was a very famous nomadic race.

The Marauders were a very famous organization among the trolls.

They appeared and disappeared like locusts, leaving everything infertile.

The Marauder’s mark was a skull tattoo and they tamed large amounts of bats.This was because the bats had strong echolocation abilities that could allow the Marauders to find locals that hid in the forest, the mountains, or even the more remote corners.The Marauders relied on this method of pillaging to make a living.

The Marauders were crazy, even daring to rob the large powers of the forest!

Because the trolls did not have a set living area, every time powerful people chased after them, they would immediately disperse.No matter how strong the local powers were, they could not catch them.

Once the danger passed, the Marauders would group again.This was a very hard to deal with group, so no matter who the Marauders set their eyes on, they would be in for bad luck.

Now that they were only attacking the small town’s patrols and guards, but this was just giving Oldman Small Town face.After all, Oldman Small Town was an underground city and it would not be easy for the trolls to invade. They could only use this method to pressure the small town while also plundering some items.

Meng Yingying was very dissatisfied with the terrified orcs, “If they dare appear again, we will kill them all!What is there to be afraid of?”

“You…..You don’t know, but there are many Marauders!”The orcs were still trembling, “They had a strange movement and no one can track them, so no one knows where they will appear.Even large tribes were daunted, we are just a few people…..It’s not enough! I think that after the Marauders finish their demonstration, they will give their request.They just need something to satisfy them, it’s better than being exterminated.

Nangong Yun angrily rushed over to beat him.

Chu Tian stopped her, “Nangong, don’t be impulsive.The situation is very special, we need to appease it right now.”

Oldman Small Town’s riches would draw hungry locusts.

But Chu Tian never thought that they would face such a troublesome enemy.

The matter of the guard being attack should have spread over Oldman Small Town already.The locals that came to live and do business in Oldman Small Town will be filled with fear and may even escape because of this.

What was even worse was that.

That large tribes might not dare offend these Marauders and could possible withdraw from Oldman Small Town because of the Marauder threats, or even simply compromising with the Marauders.Then, this newly established small town would have its foundations injured by this.

Chu Tian definitely could not let this happen!

This small town was Miracle Commerce’s first step in developing in the Forest of Chaos.If they couldn’t even complete the first step, how could they implement the following plans?
