Chapter 485: Making a Move (1/2)

”Steady... Wait...” Xue Wei whispered with a low voice as he looked at the group of soldiers that were walking down the path of the forest.

They had spent a month observing the military base, and now they had succeeded in understanding the patrol patterns, and the various ways of avoiding them in the fastest and most efficient manner.

”Go!” He whispered, and his friends all jumped down from the branches, landing right in front of the unsuspecting patrol.

Glaring lights flashed in the middle of the forest as they bombarded the soldiers with their attacks, and before they had the chance to return even the slightest move, the entire patrol had been wiped out.

Xue Wei jumped down from the branch and began taking the storage treasures from the corpses before he ignited a flame and burnt them to ashes.

Their attack had been entirely under control, and while the flashing lights could be seen in the surroundings, no marks were left on the ground or the trees, making it so that no one could notice that a battle had taken place.

”Hide again,” Xue Wei ordered, and all of them returned to the tree crowns, ready to hide and wait for the next patrol to come by.

The group displayed no excitement on their faces, but their hearts were burning with bloodlust. They had spent a long time preparing for the strike, and now that the time had come, they could not help but feel the anticipation.

There was a tremendous battle on the way, and the excitement that they felt was boosting their strength, and although their faces were calm, their blood was rushing through their veins, and their hearts were beating rapidly.

The next group of people that they fought against was as unsuspecting as the first, and they quickly fell to the ground, their lives forfeited.

Once again, Xue Wei gathered all the storage treasures, and afterward, he burned the corpses again. The flame was so intense that it managed to incinerate the corpses so swiftly, that not even the scent of burnt flesh remained in the surroundings.

Xue Wei glanced around, but he found no traces of others coming towards them, so he gestured for his friends to return to the tree crowns.

According to their expectations, they should manage to kill three or four patrols before someone noticed that there was something wrong, and up until now, they had only gotten two, so things were still going according to plan.
