Throne of Vientiane Civilization

The existence of the little buffalo directly made the bison mother be afraid of rats. She had no choice but to follow them obediently and dare not act rashly.

After walking more smoothly, in order to be able to rush back to the camp as soon as possible, Zhou Xu and the others also increased their movement efficiency appropriately.

However, with two bison calves and a full-grown bison on the lead, and having to watch out for them to escape at any time, they can't move much faster.

But also because of this reason, it is not convenient for them to sleep in the wild, and they have no other choice. Seeing the gradually darkening sky, Zhou Xu and others can only take a big, two small and three bison on the road overnight after a little rest. .

Under the night, they raised their torches and hurried on their way cautiously.

The night on the prairie can be said to be full of dangers. In the surrounding grass, carnivores that come out to hunt at night may appear at any time.

In just this moment, they had already heard a lot of rustling sounds entering their ears.

Needless to say, something is moving...

Those guys are watching them from the dark. They can't relax, but they don't need to be too nervous.

Because of their large number of people, the animals that come out to hunt at night, to a certain extent, also know how to judge the threat of the target, and it is impossible to directly pounce on a large group like them.

And at this time, in the surrounding grass, there was a sudden movement of some animals moving quickly.

This situation surprised Zhou Xu and the others, thinking that these guys were about to make a move.

But they soon realized that these movements were not approaching them, but quickly moving away from them.

This situation made Zhou Xu frowned.

[Not quite right. 】

A thought flashed through his mind, and Zhou Xu directly opened an "eye of insight" for himself and began to look around.

With this sweep, within the range of his vision, he suddenly found a ferocious beast that seemed to be waiting for an opportunity to move!

Needless to say, other animals lurking in the surrounding grass sensed the existence of this beast, so they escaped.

Under the night, with the light provided by the torch in his hand, Zhou Xu could vaguely discern that the other party had yellow-brown hair, thick limbs, and a burly figure.

And the most eye-catching thing is the pair of huge sharp teeth extending from the opponent's upper jaw like sharp knives.

[Saber-toothed tiger? ! 】

This was the first thought that flashed through Zhou Xu's mind.

In modern society, no one has seen what a saber-toothed tiger looks like, at most it can be restored through excavated bone fossils.

But just like the name Saber Toothed Tiger, its biggest feature is the pair of saber teeth!

From this point of view, the beast fits the bill perfectly.

In this primitive era, no one would sit idle and name these ferocious beasts. If Zhou Xu wanted to call it a saber-toothed tiger, then it would be.

The ferocious beast they encountered before not only knew how to divert disasters, but also found an opportunity to kill the hyena queen in one bite. No matter its brains or combat power, it should not be underestimated.

Although they have a large number of people now, once they face such a large beast in the wild, I am afraid they will have to pay a considerable price.

Almost at the same time that Zhou Xu discovered the saber-toothed tiger, its existence also broke into the vision of other tribe members, and even the three bison that they led along the way became restless because of this.

Sensing the change in the atmosphere, Zhou Xu spoke in a deep voice...

"Don't be nervous. If it wanted to pounce, it would have already pounced on it. These beasts are not stupid. It should be because we have a large number of people and don't want to take risks."

What Zhou Xu said was reasonable, but it was not enough to relieve their tension.

A group of people were wary of the beasts in the distance, leading the three bison who were starting to become a little uncooperative due to restlessness, and moved with some difficulty.

During the period, the ferocious beast also walked slowly around the periphery. It neither rushed forward nor planned to leave. I don't know if it was struggling with the situation in front of it, and couldn't decide whether to make a move.

"Boss, the beast is still following."

After walking down a certain distance, Ye Jinghong, who had confirmed the trace of the saber-toothed tiger all the way, was covered with bead-sized beads of sweat on his forehead at this moment.

During this whole process, Zhou Xu was undoubtedly under great psychological pressure.

Indeed, they have a large number of people, theoretically speaking, these beasts should not be able to attack them.

But beasts are just beasts after all, and you can't think of them too rationally. After all, sometimes, people may not be rational, let alone beasts...

Faced with this situation, Zhou Xu directly launched the mantra after a little hesitation.

[Skeleton soldiers summoned! 】

In an instant, the power of the mantra spread.

On the way back, because they needed to lead three bison, they lost half of the ten skeletons they brought with them in order to reduce the load and free up their hands. Now, they only carried five skeletons on their backs.

With these five skeleton soldiers as the base, the spreading power of the mantra also helped Zhou Xu attract seven skeletons from the covered area.

The number is not comparable to the previous one.

However, as a means, if one's own side does not deploy in advance, the actual effect is inherently unstable, and it requires luck, so there is nothing to say.

Including the five they brought with them, there are a total of twelve skeleton soldiers, which is roughly enough.

Under the dark night where you can't see your fingers, the skeleton soldier with the will-o'-the-wisp in his eyes, his every move is strange, which seems to change the surrounding atmosphere.

Their arrival made Zhou Xu and the others, who were busy on their way and didn't want to cause trouble, suddenly take on a bit of intrusive and domineering posture.

At this moment, Zhou Xu's thoughts were very simple. The saber-toothed tiger had been following them all the time, and he was uncertain and didn't want to leave.

But now, he just wants to turn his head away, use his momentum to oppress the opponent, and see if he can force him back!

There is no doubt that there is a gambling element in it, but Zhou Xu, who has weighed in his heart, is still relatively confident at the moment.

Sure enough, as soon as they got stronger, the saber-toothed tiger who followed them became even more hesitant.

After looking at him several times, he finally chose to turn his head and leave.

Everyone who saw this scene in their eyes was greatly relieved, during which Zhou Xu's voice sounded again...

"Don't relax too much, that guy might come back again."

While speaking, Zhou Xu's eyes fell on the twelve skeleton soldiers again. Just in case, he thought it would be better to bring the twelve skeleton soldiers with him.

But let them carry it on their backs, they really can't spare their hands, let alone the strength.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu felt his state a little bit, and then downgraded him, downgrading 'skeleton soldier' ​​to 'skeleton'.

In this way, the consumption of his mantra power has been reduced a lot.

Afterwards, it is not so strenuous to issue follow orders and use the power of mantra to maintain the action of the skeleton.
