The Razor Spiders were incredibly fast, moving in groups of three to five, closing in on the Beastmen Warriors.
Their blade-like forelimbs rose, blurring into streaks, rapidly stabbing at the Beastmen Warriors' bodies.
While the Razor Spiders' legs were sharp, they struggled to penetrate the high defense of the Beastmen Warriors.
But that was alright, as Razor Spiders were innately equipped with two ways to kill their enemies.
One was to cut, relying on the sharp barbs on their legs to slice open their enemies' bodies, achieving the effect of bleeding, and thus killing them.
The other was to use their venom.
The highly toxic venom entered the bodies of the Beastmen, mixing with their surging blood.
It rapidly destroyed the molecules within the blood, causing organ failure, difficulty breathing, and ultimately death.
Beastmen Warriors, unable to move, were useless even with their defenses. In a matter of minutes, they were swarmed and killed by the Razor Spiders.
The battle was rapid.
Su Ye, Eve, Susie, and Lin Yan Xi were also busy, holding their weapons, activating their skills, and hiding in the back...gaining experience.
Yes, they were farming experience.
In the Era of Lords, both troops and heroes could gain experience by killing monsters.
Reaching a certain amount of experience allowed them to level up.
After yesterday's battle with the Dwarves, Susie and Lin Yan Xi had both gained a level, slightly boosting their attributes.
Among the Razor Spiders, several individuals had killed a large number of Dwarves, and had become level two.
There was no other way, Dwarves were level five troops, while Razor Spiders were level four.
This meant they were killing monsters above their level, and thus the experience gains were naturally plentiful.
The seventeen Beastmen were eliminated in under three minutes.
They quickly cleaned up the battlefield and continued forward.
They then encountered the second and third waves of Beastmen Warriors.
After several fierce battles, they finally reached the heart of the secret realm.
There, several wooden houses were built.
They were crudely constructed and lacked any aesthetic appeal.
This was the Beastmen's gathering place.
There were at least two hundred Beastmen gathered here.
But for now, these simple-minded creatures hadn't noticed Su Ye and the others' intrusion.
They were still wandering around their camp, sleeping, eating, and even by the bushes beside the camp, Su Ye saw a few pairs of Beastmen couples creating little Beastmen.
The scene was truly earth-shattering and unbearable to witness.
Su Ye just glanced at it once, then rode Fiery Blaze away.
Landing from the air, Su Ye returned to Eve and the others.
“How is it, are we able to fight?” Eve asked upon seeing Su Ye's return.
Su Ye shook his head, “It’s a bit troublesome, the number of Beastmen gathered inside should be around two hundred to three hundred. If we charge in directly, we'll suffer huge losses.”
The reason why the entrance to the secret realm was clear was because the Beastmen population was small, ten to twenty, twenty to thirty at most. With Fiery Blaze and Ice Frost in the vanguard and the Razor Spiders swarming in groups of three to five, it was enough to handle them easily.
But now, the number of Beastmen gathered in the camp was at least two hundred.
If they forced their way in, even if they won by chance, the price they would have to pay could not be described with numbers.
Su Ye did not have that many troops to throw away.
So, this time, he planned to use strategy, not brute force.
“So how are we going to fight, big brother, give us some advice!” Susie urged.
The previous fight had successfully brought the little girl's level to three.
Her strength had increased significantly, now she wanted to kill more Beastmen so she could become stronger.
Su Ye rubbed his chin, looking at the Beastmen camp hidden in the forest ahead, and began to strategize.
Beastmen, while not very smart, did not mean they were weak. On the contrary, every single Beastman was incredibly strong.
Two hundred of them charging at once, they would definitely lose.
If that was the case, the best way would be to kill the two hundred Beastmen in batches.
This would greatly reduce the pressure on Su Ye's side.
Su Ye shared his thoughts, and the three girls agreed.
“That’s right, but the problem is, how are we going to lure the Beastmen out?” Lin Yan Xi asked.
Su Ye turned to Fiery Blaze, and an idea came to him.
“I have a plan, we'll do this first... then...”
Su Ye outlined his plan.
The three girls listened, pondered for a moment, and thought it was feasible.
“Alright, you guys wait here, I'll be right back.”
With that, Su Ye quickly climbed onto Fiery Blaze's back.
The latter spread its wings and flew towards the direction Su Ye had indicated.
Riding Fiery Blaze, Su Ye flew several hundred meters away from the Beastmen camp, then had Fiery Blaze land.
Then, he chose an open area with few weeds.
He cut down several large trees nearby and had Fiery Blaze help him pile them up.
Finally, Fiery Blaze exhaled a breath of dragon fire, igniting the pile of trees.
Because they were fresh leaves, they were instantly engulfed in flames, billowing thick white smoke into the air.
“Go, next location.” Su Ye ordered.
He rode Fiery Blaze to the next location, following the same procedure, cutting down trees, piling them up, and setting them on fire, producing more smoke.
Soon, Su Ye had lit ten bonfires around the Beastmen camp.
The smoke billowed from the forest, visible from afar.
After doing this, Su Ye ordered Fiery Blaze to let out its dragon roar.
The thing was, the bigger the better.
The sound reached the Beastmen camp, instantly attracting their attention.
The Beastmen who were gnawing on roasted meat dropped their food, and the Beastmen who were making babies stopped their earth-shattering activities.
They looked around, and quickly saw the smoke-filled forest around them.
Instantly, they were dumbfounded.
