"The younger brother next to me asked."

"strangeness……"

He frowned.

"I always felt like something was following us."

It stared at the empty woods for a long time, and only after confirming that there was nothing unusual did it shake its head in confusion.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. Let's go."

Seeing the pig-headed man continue on his way, the seven people hiding behind the tree trunk finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"That was close."

Peak patted his chest.

"This pig-headed man has pretty sharp senses."

Soon, the trees ahead became sparser, and the view opened up. The pig-headed man walked out of the forest and entered a plain with no cover.

"This is troublesome."

Chen Xu looked ahead.

"There are no more trees. If we keep following them, we'll definitely be discovered."

"What's so difficult about that?"

Peak pulled a diamond shovel from his backpack, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

Who are we?

"I'll just teleport underground!"

Everyone understood immediately.

Except for Xi Xi, who was left to hang far off the ground to determine their location because she was wearing a diamond helmet enchanted with the Starry Sky Mind and had an extremely far field of vision, the other six people turned into groundhogs.

"Swish, swish, swish."

The diamond shovel flew up and down, and a two-block-high artificial tunnel quickly extended forward one meter underground.

"Xi Xi, report your location."

"At two o'clock, one degree to the left, they've sped up, dig faster."

The six men dug frantically underground, raising clouds of dust.

However, as they dug, everyone's expressions turned grim.

The shovel turned over the soil, revealing not stones, but stark white skeletons.

"It's human bones."

He looked at the shape, which was clearly that of a human skull, with a gloomy expression in the early morning.

"And they were all broken bones, like... they had been gnawed on."

Along the way, they dug up at least several hundred skeletons underground.

The sixth brother spat.

"These pig-headed men really do eat people. They must be from the opposing faction. This will definitely trigger a mission."

"Xi Jinping has sent a message."

"We've arrived, right above us."

Everyone immediately stopped shoveling and gripped their weapons tightly in the early morning.

"We've worn out over a dozen shovels, but we've finally caught these bastards. Shall we go for it?"

"Don't rush."

Xi Xi also entered the tunnel from the rear to join the main force.

Chapter 52 Old Tunnel Fighting Method

"It's too dangerous for this tunnel to go straight to their gate. Let's turn the tunnel around and go under the trees next to it. If we can't win, this will be our retreat route and supply line, and we can fight a protracted war with them."

That makes sense.

The group immediately changed direction and began digging towards the flank.

A few minutes later, the coordinates were confirmed.

Peak pointed to a patch of soil above his head.

"Right here, at the base of a big tree, let's hollow out the trunk and make a hidden sentry."

"Does anyone have any unenchanted fire-elemental tools? My gun is on fire, and if I stab it, it'll burn everything."

I asked in the early morning.

"I'll do it."

Completely bewildered, he pulled out a long spear that exuded a chilling aura.

"I am Frost Attachment".

He carefully chiseled upwards, and soon the interior of the large tree, which was as thick as several people could hug, was hollowed out, forming a natural tree hole watchtower.

The seven people climbed the ladder into the tree hole, and from the top of the tree, they looked out through the gaps in the bark.

Not far ahead, there was a large tribal camp, with roaming pig-headed people everywhere within its simple wooden walls.

Some were sharpening bone clubs, others were tearing raw meat, and there were dozens of guards visible to the naked eye.

"This is a bit tricky."

Chen Xu frowned.

"There are too many monsters. We can't charge in head-on. Let's test their strength first."

"If I die here, losing all this enchanted equipment would be a huge loss."

Everyone nodded and solemnly pulled out their signature weapons.

Flaming spear, frost battle axe, enchanted bow and arrows...

Inside the tree hole, a hidden sentry post.

"how to spell?"

Xi Xi wiped the dirt off the shovel and asked.

Peak stroked his chin, a sly glint in his eyes.

"If you ask me, we should stick to our fine tradition and use tunnel warfare."

He pointed to the ground beneath his feet.

"There are seven of us. One of us will stay in this tree with the Frostbow to be a sniper and give orders. The other six will all lie in ambush underground. The sniper will be responsible for freezing any lone pig-headed men with Frost Arrows, and the brothers underground will hear the order and dig out the blocks under their feet."

Peak made a downward gesture.

"Let it fall into the pit, then fill it up, and catch it like a turtle in a jar."

Life is like the first time we met, my lips twitch.

"No, Peak, can your tactics be a little more righteous? Every time you burrow underground, are you some kind of earth-elemental genius?"

"Hey, that's called tactics."

At the peak, he spoke with conviction.

"The mortal way of fighting is more aggressive and easy to die quickly, while the underworld way of fighting is more sneaky but has the advantage of being stable. This is the optimal solution I have summarized based on our current equipment."

Chen Xu adjusted his helmet and nodded in agreement.

"They're seasoned veterans of the tunnels, so let's be understanding. But this tactic is indeed feasible and highly safe. What do you guys think? A full-scale attack or the old-fashioned tunneling method?"

The group looked at the enchanted equipment they had painstakingly collected, and then at the dozens of burly pig-headed men outside.

"I think we should listen to the top."

He decisively switched sides in the early morning.

"I'd be heartbroken if I lost this equipment."

"agree".

"Just in case, let's store up the unused supplies first."

The group immediately took out wooden planks and assembled them into several large boxes, which were then placed in a safe area deep inside the tunnel.

Stuff all the mined ore, excess dirt, and other debris into the container, leaving only the weapons, blocks, and food necessary for combat.

After lightly equipped, Peak remained on the tree and set up the Frost Bow through the gaps in the bark, while the other six dived underground again.

"I am the Frostbow, and I will take command."

Peak stared at a pig-headed man lying on the ground not far away, gnawing on raw meat, and opened the voice channel.

"Old Cat, dig straight ahead of you. Stop when I tell you to stop."

"receive".

Chen Xu raised the diamond shovel and quickly advanced it underground.

From the top of the tree, one has a wide field of vision and can see the teammate ID "Little Cat" slowly approaching the target, which is displayed through the underground strata.

"stop".

When the ID "[Little Cat]" stopped right at the feet of the pig-headed man, Peak immediately gave the order.

"Stay here and don't move. There are still pig-headed people watching over this one nearby. I'll call in the others."

“In the early morning, you dig fifty squares backward.”

"First encounter, thirty squares on the left."

Soon, all six underground assassins were in position, like six landmines ready to explode at any moment, lying in ambush at the feet of different pig-headed men.

Peak scanned the entire scene, searching for the best opportunity to strike. His gaze locked onto a pig-headed man who was fast asleep, and the ID directly below it was Morning.
