As the human city closest to the Greenland Forest, Blue Hills also has a small team of demon hunting knights stationed in it.
According to the news reported back by the Vulture, this team of Demon Hunter Knights left the station seven days ago. After hiring some local mercenaries, they plunged into the Greenland Forest and have not returned yet.
This also means that before their wizard team entered this world, the demon hunting team was already operating in the Greenland forest!
So Mary did not dare to delay, and quickly sent the news back to the wizard camp, and notified Grim who was catching monsters deep in the forest.
When he received the notice, Greem was leading his team of demon puppets to encircle and suppress a group of ogre tribes.
This ogre tribe has a total of 27 members, including 22 adult ogres and 5 ogre cubs. The ogre is 3 meters tall, weighs 500 pounds, and has a powerful body of 14 points.
In terms of strength, all adult males have quasi-witch level strength. Even the slightly weaker female ogres have terrifying strength that is no less than that of senior apprentices.
If such an ogre tribe were to be encircled and suppressed by the indigenous people, it would probably require 300-500 fully armed and well-trained warriors. And even if the encirclement and suppression was successful, this team would probably have to pay nearly 100,000 casualties.
A terrible price for half.
However, when this task falls into the hands of a wizard, it may become so simple!
If it was just a simple strangulation, then Greem only needed to send out the Fire Lord to kill them all. But in that case, the idea of obtaining living samples would be in vain!
So Greem only used a bottle of debilitating potion to pollute the water source of these ogres. Then while their strength was greatly reduced, Greem summoned 6 terrifying rock pythons in one go and killed them.
Captured.
Adult male ogres have 16 points of constitution and 14 points of strength, coupled with super strong flesh and blood regeneration ability. With such strength, they can actually compete with a worse body-refining quasi-witch. Unfortunately, when they are infected
After taking those debilitating potions specially formulated for their race, their physique and strength dropped to less than 10 points, and their strength was greatly reduced.
The quasi-witch-level rock python demon puppet has 16 points of strength and 18 points of constitution. When the ogres were infected with the disease one after another, they came out in full force. They did not attack the enemy, but relied on their rock-like bodies.
He just drove all the ogres together.
Greem had just appeared on the scene at this time and used the Voodoo Scroll to cast a sleeping spell. As a result, 27 ogres fell to the ground one after another, and the thick wooden sticks and boulder sticks in their hands made shallow pits on the ground.
After commanding the rock python to open its ring-shaped mouth and swallow the sleeping ogres one by one, Greem had time to process the information stored in the communication crystal.
Demon Hunting Team...entered 7 days ago...
This message also caught Greem's attention.
Judging by the time, this demon hunting team entered the Greenland forest even earlier than the arrival of the wizards. Therefore, their purpose is most likely not to go to the wizard camp, but to have another mission.
There couldn't be some indigenous spellcasters hiding in the Greenland forest that attracted those demon-hunting knights, right? Although this idea is a bit absurd, but based on the professional characteristics of the demon-hunting knights, it is really possible for Gree to
Mu guessed it right!
So, while sending rock pythons to return the captured ogres to the camp, Greem summoned 10 wind-breathed monsters to quickly disperse into the surrounding mountains and forests, looking for traces of the demon hunting knight team.
Wind-breathing monsters are low-level demon puppets made by Greem using primary crystal cores of the wind system. They are relatively weak and look like a whirlwind more than 1 meter high. Their strength, physique, and spirit are all below 5 points, but
They are said to be completely weak in combat. But their only advantage is that they have high agility and can fly.
In fact, this is nonsense. It is really strange that a small whirlwind formed by a ball of blue air cannot fly!
Greem attached a trace of mental power to the 10 wind-breathing monsters before releasing them. When they flew silently above the forest tops, their green bodies could almost blend into the blue sky background.
It is not easy to attract the enemy's attention.
So they are sentinels specially created by Greem to act as flying eyes!
10 wind-breathing monsters are 10 different mental perspectives, and the information sent back is also massive. If Greem's mental power alone may only be able to support relatively blurry visual tracking, but now there are chips
With the help of the chip, Greem simply no longer wasted his mental energy on directing the flight path of the wind-breathing monster, but gave it all to the chip.
The chip directs the wind-breathing monsters to search and check repeatedly over the forest, using the most optimized flight route to search the largest area. Greem only needs to find a safe place to rest and wait silently for the chip to give him a rest.
He brings good news.
At nightfall, the chip indeed brought him good news.
The team of demon hunting knights has been found!
…………
In a mountain col 80 miles away from the wizard's camp, three or four bonfires were lit.
Although there are too many dangerous monsters in the forest that are not afraid of flames and are even attracted by light, knights who have traveled dozens of miles of mountain roads after a hard battle need these.
The mercenaries quickly set up the tent, then sat around the campfire and began to prepare a sumptuous dinner for themselves.
A wild boar captured on the road was skinned and its internal organs were taken out, washed clean in a stream, then put on a wooden stick and barbecued on a slow bonfire. The experienced mercenaries were turning the wooden sticks
, while using a brush to evenly apply the prepared sauce and spices on it.
The wild boar meat roasted to golden brown continuously leaks out amber-like fat, dripping on the charcoal fire below, making a sizzling sound, and exuding a rich aroma that permeates the entire place.
The entire camp was filled with joy after a great victory!
The people in the camp were busy with the hired mercenaries, while the 13 knights of the demon hunting team helped each other take off their heavy armors and simply treated their injuries.
Today, their group successfully found the evil lair hidden deep in the Greenland forest and blocked 7 evil casters inside. After a fierce battle, they successfully killed 6 evil casters and captured them alive.
One of them died. Although everyone in the knight team was injured, there was no heartbreaking death. This undoubtedly made the knight leader who led the team breathe a sigh of relief.
As for the four auxiliary mercenaries who died in the battle, they were never included in the casualty list by the knight leader. These profit-seeking people who are greedy for money, as long as they are rewarded with the remaining gold coins when they go back, these mercenaries will only be grateful.
, and there will never be the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.
Mercenaries have been doing this most dangerous job since ancient times!
Therefore, since they accepted the employment in Blue Qiu City, they have already realized that they cannot turn around smoothly. Now that they have successfully completed the task, the knights have also promised generous rewards, so they feel the pain of losing four teammates.
It was quickly replaced by the desire for a better life in the future.
The camp was full of laughter and laughter, and there was a cheerful atmosphere everywhere.
In stark contrast to the knights and mercenaries, there is a thin figure whose hands and feet are tightly bound. To be honest, he is just a teenager! Long-term malnutrition has made his body look extremely thin.
He was thin, his abdomen was thin under the torn gray cloth robe, and his ribs were exposed.
His exposed skin was covered with blue-black bruises and countless small scars. A rope was strangled across his mouth and a rough gravel was stuffed inside. This was all to prevent him from secretly casting spells!
Unable to recite the spell or cooperate with gestures, he completely lost the ability to resist as he had just awakened that strange power. He could only lean on the root of a tree and scanned every smiling face in the camp with hateful eyes.
face.
These are his enemies!
It was this group of people who drove him to no fixed abode, making it difficult for him to return home. He could only wander around in the deserted mountains and forests like a lonely ghost all day long. If it hadn't been for a kind-hearted "companion" who took him there
After being introduced to that forest hut, I'm afraid his ultimate fate is to become a delicious meal in the mouth of a beast in the Greenland forest!
Unfortunately, the peaceful and beautiful days did not last long. The forest camp established by a few wandering spellcasters was destroyed by the demon hunting knights who were following them. As for his companions, those companions who had been with him day and night for half a year.
And so he fell under the swords of the knights.
The knights are murderers, and these mercenaries are accomplices!
Looking at their smiling faces, it was like a fire was lit in his heart. Anger, sadness, hatred... These extreme emotions slowly flowed through his heart, making him grit his teeth to prevent tears.
flow out.
As long as I have a chance to escape, I will definitely use the most cruel and crazy means to kill them all!
He was roaring crazily in his heart, but he knew that this was just his delusion.
Immediately, desperate thoughts engulfed his soul again!
At this extremely torturous moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, raised his head in surprise, and stared motionlessly at a certain place above the camp.
There's something a little unusual there!
This...this is the elemental fluctuation unique to the wind element!
Above the noisy camp, in the dark night sky, there was nothing there. However, this young man relied on his awakened elemental talent to sense a special gathering of wind elements there.
A natural aggregation of elements? Absolutely impossible!
Because half a quarter of an hour ago, there was nothing abnormal there. It is impossible for the wind elements to gather there for no reason!
However, the next second, the young man gritted his teeth to prevent himself from screaming.
Because three special wind element gathering points appeared in the sky, and they were slowly swimming there.
It seems...it seems like they are investigating something!
There are changes! Changes are coming to this camp!
Hope ignited in the young man's eyes, and he began to observe the surroundings of the camp quietly.
