Chapter 1742
The woods outside these open spaces are like a man-eating beast that can swallow people at any time.
After nightfall, the soldiers are not allowed to leave the camp.
In the half hour of the evening, the soldiers of the Eternal Army have collected enough dead branches to survive the night.
At this time, the camp is divided into two parts, inside and outside.
Outside are the patrolling soldiers, and behind these soldiers, a simple defense line is set up.
This defense line is very simple and cannot withstand a slightly stronger impact.
But for the soldiers of the Eternal Army, even if the defense line is simple, it is still a defense line.
As long as it can stop the demons, even for a moment, the defense line is meaningful!
After all, many times, this little time can change the entire battle situation.
The soldiers of the Eternal Army gathered around the campfire, because there were no normal creatures in the forest, so naturally there was no way to hunt.
However, the soldiers of the Eternal Army basically brought enough food every time they went out on a mission, just to prevent this situation.
"Da Hu! Do you think we can really go back alive?"
Beside the campfire outside the camp, a soldier took a dry biscuit in his hand, put it in his mouth and took a bite, then drank a mouthful of water.
Although this kind of dry food is easy to preserve, it is too dry. If there is no water, it is difficult to swallow.
"I don't know! More than a hundred brothers have died today, and we haven't escaped far!"
Da Hu also ate the dry food in his hand.
Although this kind of thing is not delicious, the soldiers of the Eternal Army are basically used to it.
After all, they have encountered this situation when they were on missions in the past.
"Alas! Those monsters are too scary! There are so many of them! I'm afraid we will all die here this time!"
The soldier continued to speak.
"Puh, phuh, phuh! How can you say such an unlucky thing?"
Da Hu interrupted after hearing it.
"Those demons may look scary, but they are not invincible. We can kill them!"
"As long as we can get through tonight safely, we will definitely be able to fight our way out tomorrow!"
Da Hu said.
"Ah! I hope so!"
The soldier did not agree with Da Hu's words.
If it was really that easy to fight our way out, so many people would not have died today!
Although he seemed to have run for a long time today, he knew very well that this distance was nothing.
Although it was unclear why those demons did not catch up, there must be some reason.
"Let's eat!"
Da Hu did not continue the topic.
After all, the morale of the Eternal Army was already low. If this fear spread in the camp, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Yeah!"
The Eternal Army soldier nodded, and it was obvious that there were some things he should not say.
As the soldiers finished their rations, they began to take turns to rest.
There were no entertainment activities in this ghost place, and many soldiers were already very tired after a day of hard work.
Now that they have a chance to rest, they naturally cannot let it go.
A few hours passed quickly!
The night watch soldiers changed several times, but there was no sudden situation.
This night was very quiet, even a little scary.
After all, in the Firefly Forest, all monsters and beasts turned into demons!
If anything happened, it could only be the demons launching a surprise attack.
However, the demons did not launch a surprise attack, which made many Eternal Army soldiers feel a little relieved.
Fighting at night is not good for them!
If the demons choose to launch a surprise attack at this time, they will be in an absolute disadvantage.
Late at night! A team of patrol soldiers completed their mission and were preparing to hand over and return to the camp to rest.
At this time, six or seven hours had passed since nightfall, and there were less than two hours left until dawn.
There was no sudden situation this night, which made the Eternal Army soldiers gradually relax their vigilance.
"Huh! Fortunately, those monsters didn't launch a surprise attack tonight! We can leave this hellhole when the sun rises!"
The soldier who had just finished changing guards squatted by the campfire, constantly adding dead branches to it.
"Alas! Who knows if there will be any danger next!"
"You saw what happened yesterday. Those demons were too cruel!"
The soldier next to him was not so optimistic.
After all, he remembered the bloody escape yesterday.
More than a hundred brothers died in the hands of the demons.
It was also thanks to the demons that they did not continue to chase them, otherwise more people would have died.
"Damn demons! If I have a chance to go back alive this time, I will...You must apply to go to the front line!"
The soldier just now spoke again.
In yesterday's battle, his best brother died in the hands of the demons in order to cover his escape.
He was extremely angry at this moment, why he was not strong enough!
If he was strong enough, he would not have watched his brother die in front of him yesterday.
Rustle!
While the night watch soldiers were still chatting, a slight sound suddenly sounded in the woods in the distance.
The sound was so light that even the night watch soldiers did not notice the abnormality.
Not only the bushes on the ground, but even the branches, there were slight sounds.
One after another, dark figures quietly appeared in the surrounding woods.
These demons stared at the camp with their scarlet eyes.
But they did not launch an attack immediately, as if they were waiting for something.
More and more black shadows gradually gathered in the woods outside the camp.
At this time, a night watch cavalryman noticed something was wrong.
"Did you hear any sound? "
The cavalryman who noticed something unusual asked.
"Huh? What sound? I didn't hear it!"
Several cavalrymen around asked in confusion.
They were busy chatting just now and didn't hear those slight sounds.
"No! I clearly heard a rustling sound in the woods around!"
The cavalryman who noticed something unusual said.
"Old Wang! You are not too nervous and heard it wrong!"
The cavalrymen around still didn't believe it.
"No! There is a problem! There is definitely a problem!"
Old Wang suddenly said.
He noticed that something seemed to be moving in the woods in the distance.
Then his eyes moved up again, and he saw many black demons hanging on the branches.
"Demons! Demons attack at night! "
Old Wang pointed at the demons on the treetops and said.
At this time, several cavalrymen around also found the abnormal situation and became nervous instantly.
They quickly picked up the weapons beside them and prepared to attack instantly.
As Old Wang's voice came, it directly awakened everyone who was resting in the camp.
"Demons attack! Get up!"
Zhao Lu suddenly opened his eyes, quickly picked up the weapons beside him, and rushed out of the camp.
In a short moment, the Eternal Army soldiers in the entire camp were ready to go.
