After seeing the ogre appearing among these giants, Rhodes was extremely surprised for a moment. Logically speaking, the ogre should not appear here.
The ogre has a body shape that is almost the same as a giant, and is more intelligent. The most obvious sign is its dark green skin.
Unlike giants who almost rely on instinct to survive, ogres have a consciousness that is no weaker than humans. Ogres are good at using various tools to prey on weak creatures, among which humans are the most common food.
With intelligence that is no weaker than that of ordinary humans, coupled with a giant-like size, ogres have become a disaster for many races.
Rhodes recalled that according to the history in the game, a long time ago, the ogres on the mainland were jointly encircled and suppressed by other races due to various misdeeds, until they were expelled to the most desolate place of Krulod.
What Rhodes didn't understand was why the ogres appeared in Verning and seemed to be with these giants.
Through the thoughts of other giants, Rhodes could only know that these giants respected this ogre extremely and seemed to have a tendency to regard him as their leader.
While Rhodes was observing, the ogre was also observing Rhodes' behavior, trying to guess the purpose of Rhodes' visit. Since the ogre is different from the simple giant at heart, and is extremely vigilant, Rhodes could not learn from its behavior.
Get useful information in your heart.
The ogre focused his observation on the ghost dragon in front of Rhodes. In terms of size, the ghost dragon obviously exceeded Rhodes by a lot.
Feeling the strength of the ghost dragon and the strong threat level, the ogre seemed to realize something. After shouting a few words in a language that Rhodes could not understand at the giants around him, he turned towards Rhodes.
The location is coming slowly.
After hearing the words of the ogre, most of the giants returned to where they came from. Even the giant who attacked Rhodes first returned to his original position. Only a few giants holding sticks still stayed.
Stay where you are and always pay attention to the ogre's movements.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, Rhodes realized that this ogre had absolute control over these giants. Only a few of these giants were dissatisfied with the ogre's decision.
Except for the giant who faced the ghost dragon directly, the other giants still couldn't feel the strength of the ghost dragon, and they still thought of using Rhodes as food.
Rhodes realized that his thinking seemed a bit simplistic. If he faced intelligent creatures, his methods would not have any problems, but when facing these giants, they simply ignored the strength they had shown.
Fortunately, this ogre controlled the giant here first, preventing it from fighting Rhodes.
After receiving the order from the ogre, these giants just thought that the ogre seemed to want to monopolize the food. Even so, although they were a little dissatisfied, they still had no objection.
While Rhodes was thinking, the ogre also arrived not far from the ghost dragon.
"Respect...Mage...what do you get?"
The ogre stumbled to express his consciousness, not particularly understanding the language used by Rhodes.
Compared with the giant, the ogre's intelligence has improved a lot, and it can clearly express its consciousness to Rhodes.
"Why do you appear here with these giants?"
Before looking for the anomaly here, Rhodes needs to figure this out in advance.
"Bracada...war destruction...migration..."
As if thinking about how to express these words, after a while, the ogre answered Rhodes' question.
After getting the answer from the ogre, Rhodes fell silent.
Through the information conveyed by the Peeping Eye, Rhodes realized that although the ogre did not lie, he wanted to hide something. Rhodes could not confirm what he concealed.
Although I understand this, the reason why this ogre appears here obviously has nothing to do with Rhodes. What Rhodes values more is things that can cause his own abnormalities.
Rhodes stretched out his hand and pointed at the abnormal location behind the ogre.
Although Rhodes did not say anything, the ogre also understood what he meant. Obviously, the ogre, who has almost mastered the entire giant tribe, knows more about the anomalies that exist in these giant tribes than Rhodes. Although the ogre doesn't know how the mage found this place, it knows that once the mage discovers the anomaly here, its long-standing plan may only end in failure.
Through his prying eyes, Rhodes noticed that the ogre seemed extremely reluctant to his request.
Rhodes didn't pay too much attention to the ogre's thoughts. If it weren't for exploring the anomalies here, Rhodes would have destroyed all the giants around him without saying anything more.
At Rhodes's signal, the ghost dragon breathed out the ghost dragon's breath towards the collapsed wooden house.
Under the erosion of the Netherworld Dragon's Breath, the wooden house decayed and collapsed at an extremely fast speed. Even the wreckage after the collapse further shrank and twisted into unsightly debris, as if it would turn into nothing with just a light touch.
Noodles.
The ogre saw all this and was extremely wary of the ghost dragon next to Rhodes. At this time, it also had a new estimate of the strength of Rhodes and his party.
Due to his location, this ogre has never seen a creature like a ghost dragon before, so he can only judge the ghost dragon's strength by relying on its size.
However, when he discovered the ghost dragon's breath, he was vaguely aware of the ghost dragon's strength. Then he thought of the powerful mage who controlled the ghost dragon, and the ogre felt a little afraid in his heart.
Combined with his long-standing understanding of the mage, the ogre finally gave up resistance.
"Follow..."
The ogre spat out a few syllables again, then turned around and walked back.
Rhodes saw that the strength he showed had an effect and the ogre had no intention of fighting, so he immediately followed him.
Rhodes did not let down his guard against the ogres leading the way. The ghost dragon followed Rhodes. Once the giants around him made any move, the ghost dragon would immediately step forward to meet the enemy.
Not knowing whether the environment here was safe, Rhodes did not let Rowling follow him, but asked her to stay with his undead creatures.
After following the ogre for a while, Rhodes finally understood the living conditions within the giant tribe.
Rhodes noticed that except for a few giants who built wooden sheds, most of the remaining giants simply lived in caves.
Following the ogre in front, Rhodes came to the entrance of a huge cave.
