Thunder World was virtually uninhabited. People occasionally entered for the Apprentice Mercenary Assessment, so the trees grew thick and healthy, with vines and brambles everywhere.
"Babata, find out where the Ironhorn Rhinos are," Lin Mu said.
"There's a herd of a hundred three hundred li to your front left."
"There are twenty five hundred li to your front right. Those are the two closest herds."
Lin Mu chose the herd of twenty. The journey was longer, but their chances of success were better.
"We'll head to the right. There are Ironhorn Rhinos about five hundred li away," Lin Mu said.
"All right. Let's go," Hong said.
Lin Mu and the other two carefully avoided Fierce Beasts along the way. It took them two days to cover the five hundred li.
"Hm?"
A ten-person squad was heading their way.
"Everyone, hide. Someone's coming," Lin Mu whispered.
They were less than a thousand meters from the Ironhorn Rhinos in a straight line, but Lin Mu did not rush over.
If the newcomers attacked while they were fighting, they would be in serious danger. Better to wait.
"Captain, there's a herd of Ironhorn Rhinos ahead. Not many. We can take them."
The squad stopped at a distance to watch. The Ironhorn Rhinos were resting in an open grassy field.
"Wang Meng, keep watch here. The rest of you, come with me. We'll finish this quickly," the captain ordered.
"Understood." The others nodded.
"Go!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Nine figures shot out of the forest and charged the Ironhorn Rhinos.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Three of the weaker Ironhorn Rhinos fell dead at once.
Roar!
The Ironhorn Rhinos bellowed so loudly that everyone's ears rang.
Something seemed to stir in the distant forest. The trees rustled and swayed.
The squad was still locked in fierce combat
