Chapter 1246 Shadows in the Forest
Before being forcibly reorganized by the alpha wolf, the dwarf was actually a subspecies of demon that lived in the swamp area. It was roughly the same size as a human child, covered with dark red wrinkled hard skin, and had a lizard face.
Creatures have always had a reputation of being cruel and ferocious. Scholars believe that this subspecies of demon is not actually a real demon, but a distorted projection formed by the beasts that were polluted in the previous tides of chaos. Some people also believe that the dwarf is a goblin possessed by dark magic.
A branch formed after corrosion. But no matter which way it is said, everyone in the world has a certain knowledge about the dwarves: this kind of terrible little thing is a very cruel and fearless race. They will only obey absolute power. Although the dwarf
Many of the actions of lemures appear funny, but this cannot conceal their dark nature:
Leprechauns feel almost no fear.
However, such a fearless little demon now screamed and ran out of the depths of the forest. The two dwarf demons were covered in blood and stumbled as they ran, as if there was an extremely terrifying enemy chasing them behind.
Lily heard the noise and rushed over immediately. She found that the two trembling dwarfs with frightened expressions were the scouts who had been sent to explore a certain direction in the forest, but there were ten of them sent out at that time.
In this situation, it is obvious that the other eight are in serious danger.
"What happened?" Lily came to the two dwarves and asked condescendingly.
The two dwarf demons who were constantly sifting through chaff felt the leader's aura, or were probably frightened by the light of Symmetra on Lily's body. In short, they finally calmed down. They made sharp screams and yelled in harsh language as if metal was being torn apart.
He said: "The other guys are dead! They are all dead! There is a black thing running out of the woods! It is not afraid of fire or smoke! It goes right through us, and then gets into our brains! Then they all die.
La! We also saw many, many terrible things!”
Leprechauns are a race with higher intelligence among all subraces, which is why Lily sent them to explore the way ahead: compared to furbolgs, these guys can at least explain what they see clearly. However,
After hearing the messy report from the two dwarf demons, Lily couldn't help but stare: "What the mess..."
At this time, Calasius also caught up from behind. The senior monk also had some research on sub-races, so he understood some of the words of the dwarf demon intermittently. He frowned: "Could it be that he was attacked by the servants of Chaos?"
Lily's ears twitched: "What are you talking about again... Chaos? Is that thing really so powerful?"
When Carathius heard this, he couldn't help but want to roll his eyes. If it weren't for the forty-year veteran archbishop's cultivation, he would have rolled his eyes to the sky. The senior monk sighed: "You...
...Destined not to be afraid of Chaos, but that thing is an absolute disaster for ordinary people like us. Then again, Chief Wolf, do you really not know what is going on on the mainland?"
"I don't know," Lilit put her hands on her hips happily. Although she didn't know what to be happy about, she was just so happy. "As soon as I woke up, I found myself on the island. God knows what happened before.
.”
Carathius continued to sigh, but he didn't know what to say.
He was in awe of the light of Symmetra in the "Head Wolf", but he really couldn't accept the other person's world view and attitude towards chaos, especially the latter: probably because he was born with a powerful divine power of order, this "Head Wolf"
It can almost be said that she is destined not to be invaded by Chaos from birth, let alone being invaded by Chaos. There is a powerful force field of order within a few hundred meters around her, and the power of the Chaos Tide cannot get close to her at all.
, which leads to an interesting result:
For the Kolo people, the color-changing "chaos" that everyone is familiar with and talks about in detail is a rare thing that can never be encountered in the first wolf's life... Of course, saying "a lifetime" here may be a bit exaggerated. After all, the power of chaos also exists.
When breaking through the blockade of order, at least for now, the alpha wolf has not been disturbed by the power of chaos at all.
The deaf are not afraid of shooting off cannons, the blind are not afraid of flowers, the heartless are not afraid of setbacks in life, and the huskies are not afraid of chaos...
At this time, Lily had already finished questioning the two dwarf demons. After some questioning, she was basically certain that the two unlucky men encountered were indeed monsters from chaos.
"As expected, the power of Chaos is chasing after us," Karasius said. "I didn't expect that a new surge would occur in the seventh year of the Chaos Tide. The dark side of the Sea of Karnos is coming from the world.
The bottom layer is surging upward, and a new wave of storm is landing in the south of Ansu. We should have just caught up with the front of the storm... In my judgment, the real storm has not started yet, and it will officially arrive in about three days. But even if
It is the front line of the Chaos Storm... and it is also quite dangerous."
Lily listened confusedly and could only understand half of it, but she still knew that the situation seemed to be getting worse.
The team has been encountering various strange phenomena since entering the forest area, such as suddenly withered trees, surging soil, and living skeletons in the forest. These things have appeared more than once so far. According to Karasius, these
They were all signs of approaching Chaos, and today, all the signs finally arrived: there were members of the team who were directly killed by the servants of Chaos.
Although they were just a few dwarf demons, they escaped from the floating island with her after all. As the prestigious dog king of the southern suburbs, Lily felt that she had to protect her little brothers.
She looked at Carasius: "Uncle, you are an expert, please give me some advice."
Karasius nodded: "We should be on the borderline where chaos and order conflict. This storm has just appeared, so the conflict between the two forces has not really broken out yet. The monsters that emerged from chaos have not yet broken out."
It will not break out everywhere, but should be concentrated in a few locations with the most serious conflicts. We must avoid the places with the strongest atmosphere of chaos based on the directions detected by the scouts. Our goal is still the nearest barrier of order from here to Talos
There should still be three days' journey to the border, but if we hurry up, we can shorten it to two days."
Lily thought for a moment, then suddenly jumped onto a big rock nearby and ordered loudly: "Attention everyone! Camp next to the big bonfire and rest! You must have a good sleep today, and we will set off tomorrow!"
Karasius nodded slightly after hearing the arrangement of the alpha wolf, but an ordinary paladin in the investigation team couldn't help but said: "First wolf, shouldn't we set off immediately? It would be a waste to set up camp here...
"
"We won't waste time," Lily stared at the reckless paladin, "We have been on the road for several days, and now everyone has very little physical strength left. In this case, when encountering monsters, the ability to fight back is basically zero.
The risk is much higher than the time it takes to set up camp. Now while my light is still bright, everyone should take the time to rest. Let’s go, everyone goes back to sleep!”
The reckless paladin was left speechless. Calasius patted the young man on the shoulder: "The wolf is right, what you fear most when you are trapped in the realm of chaos is losing your cool and wasting energy. Go back and rest.
, the real challenge is tomorrow.”
It soon became quiet in the Warcraft camp. The big bonfire was burning in the center of the forest clearing. The bright firelight reflected the twisted and deep dark jungle around it. Lily came to her "throne" and lay down to watch.
The gloomy sky is in a daze.
There were thick animal skins and straw mats underneath her body, but these did not allow her to sleep comfortably.
It’s so bright...
Lily turned over awkwardly, only to see that her tail was emitting a bright white light in the air. Not only her tail, but her whole body was actually glowing. At first, the light made her feel quite interesting, but now she
She just felt that this blinding thing seriously hindered her sleep, and what was more serious...she didn't know how to turn it off.
"It would be great if the landlord was here," the husky girl thought wildly. "The landlord knows a lot of weird things. He must have a way."
After continuing to turn around for a while, she suddenly heard a strange noise coming from nearby.
Lily's ears twitched, and she immediately stood up and looked around alertly.
Her herd of beasts was surrounded by demon wolves, gnolls, furbolgs, dwarves, and various demon beasts were divided into piles according to their groups. They lay in a circle around the throne of the alpha wolf, with varying weights.
The sound of snoring and the peculiar smell of Warcraft floated throughout the camp. The rescued humans also occupied a corner. These seemingly high-status humans were actually quite capable of enduring hardship. They were now in the air next to the fire foxes.
We set up camp on the ground, with a few simple tents set up there.
The tent was carried by the human named Carathius, and he seemed to have a "portable space" similar to the landlord.
Lily's eyes wandered between the herd of beasts and the human camp, and the strange sound came and went in and out of the camp erratically, as if an invisible strange thing had sneaked in. The owner of the sound was swaggering across the camp.
Passing through those sleeping bodies, looking for their prey.
Suddenly, Lily's golden eyes shrank.
She stared closely at the place where the dwarfs were camping, where two figures climbed up.
