Chapter 60 Serpent Patrol
"Captain... this is a tough one!"
One of the gnolls, seeing the fierce-looking Serpent Patrolman, couldn't help but tremble. They were a race that loved to bully the weak, and now that they had encountered someone stronger than themselves, they couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.
"Don't leave!"
It must be said that the captain is different from these ordinary gnolls. Faced with the successive deaths of his teammates, he did not tremble with fear like the other two. Instead, he gripped his hammer and assessed the situation.
Although this guy killed two of them first, it was because they didn't know him well. Now that they know his strength, they will naturally be on guard. There are three of them on their side.
Ah!
The advantage is mine!
"Attack together! Take him down!"
The gnoll captain roared, and the other two gnolls' eyes widened. After a moment's hesitation, a fierce glint appeared in their eyes.
Fight!
Three jackal-men charged forward simultaneously, hammers raised, forming a pincer movement. Their eyes showed their determination to capture the Serpent Patrolman in one fell swoop.
The three attacked simultaneously, forcing even the Serpent Patrolman to retreat temporarily. The Serpent Patrolman, with his superior speed compared to the three, quickly retreated and dodged the attack.
The three refused to give up and continued their pursuit, but their attacks were dodged by Snake Patrolman with a simple dodge.
After two unsuccessful attacks, the other two, besides the gnoll captain, were somewhat discouraged. However, the gnoll captain launched another attack, and they had no choice but to follow suit.
As the saying goes, "One should strike while the iron is hot, but the second will be weaker, and the third will be exhausted!" The three had lost some confidence due to the continuous failures of their attacks, and sure enough, the attack failed again thanks to the snake patrol officer's serpentine movements.
This greatly dampened the morale of the three men, and the Serpent Patrolman keenly noticed this. He seized the opportunity and struck with lightning speed, instantly killing one of them.
This startled the two gnolls on the other side, one of whom was so frightened that he ran away, leaving only the gnoll captain to confront the Serpent Patrolman.
"you you....."
"Which tribe do you belong to?!"
Even the jackal captain, with his strong will, felt a sense of retreat. He looked at the snake patrol officer, completely baffled as to which tribe this guy belonged to.
There are no snake people tribes in the Black Forest!
The Serpent Patrol did not answer the gnoll captain's question. Instead, he slowly approached with his spear, as if looking for an opportunity to kill him with a single blow.
This action startled the gnoll captain, causing him to take two steps back. However, he quickly forced himself to regain his composure and spoke to the Serpent Patrolman in a somewhat threatening tone:
Are you sure you want to kill me?
Do you know how many people are in our tribe?
"Hundreds of warriors will avenge us, and your tribe will be razed to the ground."
"Don't think you're strong enough to rebel. There are many powerful warriors in the tribe, and countless others stronger than me!"
"Put down your weapon now, and I might... wait! What are you going to do?"
"Don't come here!"
"My companion has already run away. He'll go back and inform the tribe. If you persist in your wrongdoing..."
"Don't!"
"Don't come over here!"
Pfft!
Snake Patrol casually dodged his dying attack, then plunged a spear into his head. The jackal captain died with a heart full of resentment!
Seeing the gnoll bleeding profusely, the Serpent Patrolman looked pleased. He then glanced in the direction the gnoll had fled—the very direction he had come from…
There's no escaping it...
..........................
Ping!
A crisp sound of weapons clashing rang out from the forest. Zooming in, a wolf scout was fighting a fleeing gnoll!
"You are clearly one of our own kind, so it's fine if you don't help us, but why are you attacking me!"
Faced with the jackal's questioning, the little wolf demon felt a surge of anger. How had he become a member of this ugly creature's clan?
"Who said we're from the same race as you?"
"Your grandfather is a demon, a pure-blooded demon!"
"How dare you, such a vulgar and lowly creature, compare yourself to me!"
After saying that, the wolf scout increased the force of his kick. Suddenly, he kicked the gnoll in the stomach, and then, taking advantage of the gnoll's unsteady footing, he slashed back!
Swish!
With a soft "plop," a large gash appeared on the gnoll's body, and he cried out in pain!
There isn't a significant difference in physical attributes between jackals and wolf scouts, but in combat, wolf scouts almost always dominate.
This is mainly due to the difference in proficiency between the two sides with their weapons; the gnolls' use of weapons is nothing more than ordinary smashing.
But the wolf scouts are different. After all, they are monsters from China, so they must have some martial arts skills and swordsmanship.
This is equivalent to a trained person beating an ordinary person who has never been trained; the advantage is naturally huge!
As expected, the wolf scout quickly subdued the gnoll. The reason he suppressed his anger and didn't kill the guy with one blow was because the king said it would be best to capture him alive.
Otherwise, I would have stabbed him to death long ago!
Soon, the Snake Patrolman, along with his unconscious men and wolf scouts, joined them. The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the joy in each other's eyes.
Mission accomplished!

"Let me see, let me see, let me see!"
"Where did this demon come from? How come it has four legs?"
"Damn, this guy is really ugly. Is he your cousin?"
"Who said he's my cousin? I don't have a cousin that ugly!"
Black Wind Village was bustling with activity. A large number of lesser demons gathered together, their curious eyes fixed on the orcs brought back by the wolf-snake duo. They poked and looked at them from all angles, finding them all quite novel.
Both orcs had simple burlap bandages wrapped around their bodies and some herbs applied to them.
After a while, the ones who were in slightly better physical condition woke up first.
Before he even opened his eyes, he heard a lot of noise around him. His first thought was that he might have been captured by the gnolls and used as food.
When he half-opened his eyes, he discovered that the onlookers were all demi-humans with hairy feet.
This sent a chill down his spine; he was right, he had definitely stumbled into a den of jackals.
Seeing this, he simply closed his eyes. His injuries hadn't healed yet, and he was no match for them. He didn't want to see these guys anymore; they could do whatever they wanted with him.
He was too exhausted to struggle anymore!
"Why are you looking so gloomy at such a young age?"
The centaur suddenly opened its eyes and found a ginseng head standing in front of it.
What?
