Chapter 22: Prepared, Beast Tide Breaks Out

"~~"

Xie Miao's eyes twitched and he gave a thumbs up:

"Brother Dayuan has a good eye. This was originally the embryo of a Xuanbing treasure bow. It was just that something went wrong during the quenching process, so...

However, after twisting a piece of bull tendon into a three-stone bow, the effect is very stable, and it can maintain high intensity and fire continuously..."

"!"

Sun Wei couldn't help but nod secretly.

Without mentioning anything else, this bow is worth a lot just based on its material. Even if it is melted down and recast, it will still be a big profit.

The key performance is stable, which is very important for a sharpshooter.

A sharpshooter who can fire one bow in one breath is definitely different from a sharpshooter who can fire three bows in one breath. The latter can dominate a battlefield and be at the strategic level everywhere.

"Bang bang——"

Wang Yuan had already taken the bow and tried it out.

It is very solid, weighing more than ten pounds, and feels good when drawing the bow, which is just right for him.

So he didn't let go and tied it directly on his back.

Of course, there are also three pots of arrows.

The Three Stone Strong Bow must use pure metal arrows, because the bamboo pole cannot support the fierce force, and the arrow body will shatter instantly once the string is loosened.

"By the way, do you have any hidden darts?"

Wang Yuan's eyes swept across the armory and landed on a few boxes.

"Brother Dayuan, do you also know how to use hidden weapons?"

Xie Miao asked in surprise.

"!!"

Sun Wei also raised his head.

He hadn't heard Wang Yuan say that.

I just occasionally saw it grinding things and didn't pay any attention to it.

"Shh-"

Wang Yuan gently touched his waist and swung it away.

“Bang bang bang bang—”

There were more than a dozen iron needles on the opposite wall, neatly arranged in a circle, which was particularly round.

"!!"

Xie Miao was shocked.

This is definitely not an ordinary hidden weapon master!

The hidden weapons are so powerful, how did he practice it?

"~~"

Sun Wei was even more confused.

He is amazing at archery, amazing at darts, has an outstanding talent for medicine, and also has a good talent for martial arts.

If you put your heart into it, wouldn't you be more talented and powerful than him?
She is only 16 years old, and he is already 18!

"I, Chen Hansheng, have met my match!"

"With such a dart skill, I can rest assured that you are safe in close combat. Awesome! Genius!"

The more Xie Miao looked at Wang Yuan, the more he liked him and gave him a thumbs up again.

"Snapped--"

"Snapped--"

He quickly stepped forward to open the box, revealing the hidden weapon inside:
"Pick! Pick whatever you like! Take whatever you like, and take as much as you can. If you are not satisfied, I will ask the people from the Ministry of Industry to customize it for you!"

"No, these will do."

Wang Yuan smiled and shook his head, then squatted down to choose.

He chose only three darts:

One is the most common diamond-shaped dart, about two inches long, one inch wide, and sharp on both sides;
One is a steel needle that is as thick as a chopstick, pointed at one end, and three inches long;
The last type is silver needles that are as thick as a hair and similar to those used in acupuncture.

The three types of darts are designed for three situations and are basically enough.

Darts are just one of his means of defending against enemies, not his focus or reliance.

and so……

Dart skills include a basic skill, which is hiding the dart.

If you don't know how to hide the darts, it will be almost the same as a sword, losing a lot of suddenness and violent killing power.

Twelve diamond-shaped darts, twenty steel needles, and thirty-six silver needles, Wang Yuan just wiped them on his body casually, and they disappeared. They were completely invisible on the surface, as if they were not there.

"~~"

Sun Wei and Xie Miao looked on in amazement.

"17~25"

This is Wang Yuan’s current combat power.

The lower limit only increased by 1, because the basic skill is there, but the upper limit increased by a full 5, which can be said to be a great increase in strength.

Now he should be able to rank high on the North Shore.

After completing the formalities, Wang Yuan left Qingyao Hall with satisfaction.

Of course, the benefits of being affiliated with the company were not just what he received. In addition, he received five taels of silver every month, and ten kilograms of meat every day that Xie Miao specially purchased for him.

This is not a small number. You have to know that a normal ordinary combatant in the military department only eats two kilograms of meat a day.

Just because he encountered a monster, Wang Yuan did not plan to go out hunting at night for the past two days. The ten kilograms of meat every day could just make up for his losses to a certain extent. However, he found a sad thing at noon, that is, after his cultivation broke through the ninth level, he had no more room for two bowls of rice per meal.

After a little thought, it was probably because his physical condition had improved and his basic energy consumption had increased, so he could only eat more.

Fortunately, a pound of flesh and blood can still produce a little surplus, otherwise he would cry.

……

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was the night of the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month

"Ow~~~"

"Ow~~~"

Suddenly, there were roars of beasts one after another around the river beach, and they were approaching at a very fast speed.

"Dang-dang-dang-dang-"

"Dang-dang-dang-dang-"

Fierce gong sounds could be heard from the huts and refugee areas.

At the same time, members of the three forces shouted:

"Beast attack! Beast attack!"

"Everyone, defend!"

"Beast attack! Beast attack!"

"Dang-dang-dang-dang-"

"Everyone, defend!"

All the people on the riverbank were awakened and jumped up from the ground or beds.

Torches and braziers illuminated the entire wooden house area and most of the river beach.

At this time, the riverbank was in chaos. Countless refugees rushed to the wooden house area, trying to go inside, but they were blocked by the built earth walls, strong refugees, and people from the three major forces.

"Back off! Everyone back off! Back off!"

"Make way! Make way!"

"Bam—"

"You're looking for death!"

……

"We're going in! We're going in!"

"You can't leave us out here to die! No! The court won't allow it!"

"Please, give me a chance!"

……

"The beasts are going to attack the wooden houses. They want to steal the water source, so the closer they are to the wooden houses, the more dangerous it is!"

"Move back! Everyone, go to the middle of the riverbank and form a circle..."

The three major forces are mediating.

Although the refugees surrounding them could resist the group of beasts, it also put a certain amount of pressure on their defense.

In fact, the three major forces had already promoted it before, but few people still remembered and obeyed at the critical moment.

After all, trust between people has long gone underground, and people like to follow the crowd...

"Whizzing--"

“Roar~~Roar~~~”

The group of beasts behind had arrived and rushed into the refugee group.

There are jackals, wolves, tigers, leopards...

Most of them are carnivores, each one is at least one or two sizes larger than before the drought, faster, stronger, and with more ferocious eyes.

"Roar~~"

A giant wolf with a shoulder height of more than one meter bit a refugee standing in front of it in half with one bite. Then it did not eat the refugee, but simply shook its head and threw it aside, and moved on to the next one.

"Bam—"

On the other side, a tiger weighing seven or eight hundred kilograms slapped three or four people away with one palm.

He leaped over ten meters and knocked down seven or eight people...

“Hmph—”

"Whizzing--

Cunning jackals, sly foxes, agile leopards...

Everyone was rushing inside quickly.

In addition, a considerable number of them rushed from the dry river channel, directly towards the dam and the center of the wooden house area.

There is no obstruction and the speed is very fast.

"!!!"

When the refugees saw that the beasts were really rushing towards the wooden house area, they immediately stopped crowding inside and started running outside.

One by one, a crowd of people soon formed.

There were as many as twenty or thirty thousand refugees, too many, far outnumbering the beasts.

Therefore, many animals were taken away and drowned.

But after all, they were just a group of skinny refugees, unorganized and undisciplined, a mob that had little impact on the beast army.

At this time, the battle between the three major forces in the wooden house area and the group of beasts has begun.
