The body of the priest is buried in the kobold kingdom?
Shiloh's first reaction was deep suspicion. After all, he had just fought a battle with a kobold before. The combat effectiveness of this kind of humanoid creature did not leave a good impression on him. If they were to guard the body of the sacrifice, it would definitely
It was the worst decision Chaos made.
How can this group of weak people with candles on their heads be able to undertake such an important task?
The dwarf Balin saw the disdain in Shiloh's eyes at a glance. He reminded: "Dwarf, the kobolds are far less fragile than you think. Their strength has not been shown in front of you at all. If you are really determined to break through,
Entering that underground mine, the danger you face will definitely be multiplied several times."
Hearing the dwarf's serious warning, Shiloh became interested and asked: "Why, do the kobolds still have some trump card that they haven't used yet?"
The dwarf Balin nodded, frowning, as if thinking of some bad memories. After a few seconds, he finally said: "It's a trap. The real terror of kobolds is the mechanical traps they make."
"Although the so-called kobolds are weak, they have amazing talents in making machinery that surpass other races. The mechanical traps they create are not only exquisite, but also powerful, making them difficult to guard against."
"In the war between our dwarves and Chaos, countless warriors died in the traps of the kobolds. If we really break into the kingdom of the kobolds, we don't know how many powerful and terrifying mechanisms will be waiting for us."
Listening to the dwarf Balin's story, Shiloh finally put away his contempt. It turned out that this kobold's natural profession is "engineer". It is understandable why their combat effectiveness on the battlefield is not satisfactory, but they can still
Responsible for the important task of guarding the sacrificial body.
Really powerful races fight by making various tools and props. It must be said that the development path chosen by the kobold race is indeed a good move.
"Speaking of which, I remember that you dwarves are also good at making weapons. The artillery on the mainland today was made by you back then. Why, after hundreds of years, you still haven't developed individual weapons such as muskets?"
The dwarf Balin took a deep look at Shiloh and said: "Human, if I hadn't witnessed you fighting the kobolds with my own eyes, I would really suspect that you are actually a race corrupted by Chaos... The musket has indeed been successfully developed, but
There are still several technical problems waiting for our craftsmen to overcome, otherwise the power that the musket can exert will be far less useful than that of a brave warrior."
"Although we dwarves are also good at refining weapons, the long-term war has left us no time to take care of it, so the development of gunpowder weapons has been extremely slow. On the contrary, the traps of these kobolds have become more sophisticated, and they even now have a small number of magic tools.
trap."
"Humans, it is definitely not easy to destroy the body of a sacrifice. If you are afraid, just find a place to hide early and pray that Chaos will find you later, and maybe you can survive for a while."
Shiloh knew that the dwarf's last provocation was to provoke him. He shook his head and said: "The Gulf Stream Island Chain is my territory, and it is my duty to conquer this territory. Dwarf, just watch, whether it's a sacrificial body or something else."
I will destroy all the bullshit chaos."
Both of them knew that these words were superficial words for the soldiers, but they still had a tacit understanding and did not continue the conversation. Shiloh stretched out his hand, looked at the dwarf Balin, and said solemnly: "The third prince of the Kingdom of Pontos, the Kingdom of
Earl, Shiloh Wilf, Lord of the Gulfstream Island Chain, hopes to join hands with the dwarves to deal with our common enemy, Chaos."
Dwarf Balin hesitated for a moment, tilted his head and looked at Shiloh's outstretched hand, then looked at his own hand, and finally imitated the gesture and took his hand, saying: "Dwarf Kingdom... Dwarf Balin is willing to cooperate with humans.
Let’s destroy the sacrificial body together.”
Shiloh shook the hand of the dwarf Balin tightly and narrowed his eyes: Okay, now that you have boarded my pirate ship, you dwarfs can't even think about getting off.
Now that both parties have finally put aside all their grudges and are ready to cooperate, they will no longer ignore each other as before. The dwarf immediately picked up the branch and drew on the ground. After a while, he drew a simple map.
"This is a psychedelic forest. In fact, the area of the psychedelic forest is not too big. However, due to the chaos, people who enter it will lose their way and find it difficult to get out... We are in this position now, and the Kobold Kingdom,
Right here, if we go at full speed, it will take about 3 hours."
"Although the kobold traps are exquisite, most of them are mainly for physical damage. Only a few traps contain the power of magical elements. Therefore, when moving forward, it is best to put your iron cans at the front.
Five steps is the interval to avoid too many people stepping on the trap at the same time.”
"In fact, attacking the kobolds is not a good choice now, because yesterday a kobold flesh mage escaped from your hands. Judging from their vengeful nature, they will inevitably prepare for battle in advance. Therefore, the opponents we face will be
It will be more difficult."
"Traps, ogres, kobold armies, plus the complex terrain, even if all 300 of your men are elites, they won't be enough to conquer the entire mine."
After forming a common front, the dwarf immediately stepped into the role and made a clear and logical analysis. Hilo couldn't help but nod, thinking that what he said was right.
"So, my suggestion is to gather all your people and use all your strength to conquer the kobold kingdom at once. Otherwise, it will be useless to cut the flesh with blunt knives."
Shiloh immediately shook his head and said: "No, the troops on the ship are used to protect my ships. If they are all transferred, then if there is a murloc attack, my three ships will definitely not be spared. This is
Our only way back is to leave no room for error."
The dwarf Balin was silent for two seconds. Suddenly he saw Shiloh staring at him closely and said: "The dwarf kingdom has been fighting on Qindao for many years. It is impossible that it doesn't even have a stronghold and guerrilla forces. I have already used my most elite troops."
troops, the dwarves should also show some sincerity."
After understanding the meaning of Shiloh's words, the dwarf Balin sighed, called another dwarf, and said: "Noli, I remember that the frontline stronghold is not far away, go and call all the soldiers in the stronghold.
, we have big things to do.”
The dwarf Noli nodded and immediately ran towards the outskirts of the forest. Seeing that he was alone again with his bare hands, Shiloh was worried about making a mistake and wanted to send two people to escort him. Balin shook his head and said: "Don't worry, Noli is a qualified person."
warriors, and it’s daytime now, so the ogres can’t move out, so the ordinary opponent Noli doesn’t pay attention yet.”
Moreover, Noli will not leave too far.
He did not say this. After being in the war for so long, the dwarves' communication would naturally not fall behind and still rely on human legs to transmit. However, he would not tell Shiloh such confidential matters.
Shiloh nodded, and the two began to discuss tactics again. In the view of the dwarf Balin, the strength of the people was far less than that of the kobolds, and now they were burdened with important tasks, so every step must be meticulous and cautious.
There is a huge gap between his appearance and the reckless and direct dwarf in Shiloh's mind.
In comparison, Shiloh seemed like a dwarf, saying that apart from being careful about traps, everyone could kill them all the way, and the kobolds would definitely not be their opponents.
Bahrain doesn't know why Shiloh has such confidence. No matter how weak the kobolds are, there are still thousands of them. Even if they stand still and let everyone chop them, it will take a long time to kill them all. This human being
As the commander-in-chief of an army, how could he be so reckless?
Shiloh smiled and said: "Because I have released an extremely terrifying curse on the kobolds. Let alone thousands of people, even if there are twice as many, they will never be our opponents."
Balin secretly rolled his eyes and continued to explain the complex terrain of the underground mines and the intricacies of the kobold traps. Shiloh just nodded and did not refute, but he always acted like he had a plan in mind, which made Balin quite confused.
Could it be said that this human being really has some powerful magical power and can he really release any terrible curse?
Shiloh did not explain but glanced at the corner of his character panel and saw there that the status of the pandemic had changed dramatically.
【Spanish Flu(Spanish Girl)】
【Number of infected: 1377/2000】
[Number of people with serious illness: 549]
【Number of deaths: 0】
In just one day, the pandemic influenza has infected 1,377 people, and the number is still increasing. This terrible contagion makes Hilo even more excited.
It is indeed the strongest debuff profession. If more diseases are unlocked in the future, then Hilo himself will be able to cause great trouble to his opponents.
Today's battle is a battle that shows the powerful power of the disease mage.
The two discussed it for a long time, and finally decided to march to the kobold kingdom first, so as to avoid delaying the process for a long time and causing more twists and turns.
After lunch, not long after, I suddenly heard the sounds of fighting coming from the white mist behind the misty forest, accompanied by several pitiful barks. After about tens of seconds, it became completely quiet.
Just as Shiloh was wondering, he saw Balin's face beaming with joy and said, "The Slayer is here."
Before he finished speaking, he saw 20 dwarves wearing only animal skin jackets, with strong muscles, red hair and big beards walking out of the white mist. They only carried two large axes on their backs and no other armor.
and weapons, except that these two large axes were almost as big as their bodies and seemed to weigh at least a hundred kilograms.
Behind them, there was also a grinning beast, including a wolf, a wild boar, and even a tiger, which was quite shocking.
These lovers walked out of the thick fog, waved their hands, and threw the kobold corpses on the ground. The leader, a red-bearded dwarf, said in a loud voice: "By the honor of the blood of our ancestors, Berich's son - Bronze Furnace
Come in response to the call."
Balin nodded and said: "Dear son of Berich, hurry up and join the team. We have a tough battle to fight today."
"How hard?"
"As hard as unmeltable black gold!"
The red-bearded dwarf Bronze Furnace nodded towards Balin and looked at Shiloh curiously. Balin gave a brief explanation, and Bronze Furnace withdrew his gaze, took out a whetstone, sat aside and began to sharpen his ax seriously.
.
Shiloh was about to ask about the origin of this dwarf and how he came out of the psychedelic forest. Suddenly, the Storm Army under his command reported that a group of dwarves was approaching. Shiloh and Balin immediately went up to meet them. Under the leadership of Noli,
40 dwarves, covered in heavy armor almost as thick as iron, trotted over. The armor on these dwarves could be seen to be made by famous masters. It was strong and strong, but did not reflect too much light.
, the joints of the armor cannot be seen at all, but it is extremely convenient to move.
They carried negative shields on their backs, heavy cone-shaped shields that could almost cover the entire dwarf. They also carried a huge square war hammer. With the strength of the dwarves, if they were hit hard by this war hammer, it would probably be a direct hit.
It will be smashed into two small cakes.
Before they could walk in, a dwarf with his beard tied into pigtails, who was at the front, patted the armor on his chest and shouted loudly.
"Sworn by the honor of the bloodline of our ancestors, Forged Iron, the son of Kachuri, responds to the call."
"The invincible son of Kachuri, with your joining, we will win an honorable victory." Balin also greeted him enthusiastically and accepted this group of dwarves into the team.
In this way, all the troops were assembled. After describing the battle plan to these dwarves in detail, the two dwarves, Copper Furnace and Forge Iron, immediately agreed without saying a word.
"Honorable Bahrain, we have long wanted to teach those dirty and smelly kobolds who only hide in dark corners a lesson. This time I will let my war hammer suck their brains!"
"Kobolds, all deserve to die!"
Wrought Iron's speaking style is extremely dwarf-like, direct, vulgar, and has a hearty laugh, while Copper Stove is the opposite of Wrought Iron, rarely speaking.
Balin also briefly introduced Shiloh and his Storm Army. When these dwarves saw Shiloh, their eyes were filled with naked contempt. However, after seeing the Storm Army, they became much more serious. This army came from
His momentum surprised them.
After the preparations were completed, both parties immediately returned to the psychedelic forest under the guidance of Bahrain and headed towards the Kobold Kingdom.
On the way, Balin took the rare initiative to introduce to Shiloh the difference between the Slayer dwarves led by Copper Furnace and the Warhammer dwarves led by Forge Iron. It turned out that the Slayers were a regiment composed of the most militant elements among the dwarves. Every one of them
They are all good at killing. Accordingly, they believe that as long as they are brave enough, the blood of their enemies is their best armor, so they only wear animal skins without any armor.
This unit moves quickly and stealthily, and with its domesticated beast companions, it can be said to be the sharpest knife in the hands of the dwarves.
The Warhammer Dwarves led by Forge Iron are elites selected from dwarf warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles. They have rich combat skills and are good players in both defense and offense and should not be underestimated.
During this process, Shiloh discovered that Balin had a high status among the dwarves. Whether it was a copper furnace or forged iron, he would always unintentionally show a sense of obedience from his subordinates during conversations, which made Shiloh wonder whether he could still save his life.
Can't you become a big shot?
If Bahrain is really a big shot, how could he be reduced to a meal for the ogres?
In any case, this Bahrain is not simple.
While everyone was marching, Tongluo, a taciturn dwarf, ordered his men to collect many colorful leaves from the surroundings and asked all the dwarves to smear them on their bodies. Later, at Balin's request, he also sent some to Shiloh.
When enough leaves came, he said: "Put it on and the kobold's nose will be useless."
Shiloh nodded. To deal with a race like kobolds, masking the smell is a good way, so he immediately asked the Storm Army to crush the leaves, and everyone applied a little on the exposed parts of the body.
Before the dwarves arrived, their whereabouts had been discovered by the dog-heads. Shiloh also sent people to clean up these surveillance eyes, but found that these kobolds were extremely sharp in the thick fog, and they were also extremely cunning. Once they realized
When the Storm Troopers approach, they will immediately escape, just like jackals tracking their prey on the African savannah.
Shiloh had no choice but to give up because the fog was too heavy and the Divine Arm Crossbowman could not kill them from a distance. The Life Magician's magic was also not within range, so he had no choice but to give up. Unexpectedly, these dwarf slayers actually removed these eyes for them.
, it was an unexpected surprise.
At this time, the two sides were getting closer and closer to the kobold territory, and the speed gradually slowed down. Balin ordered the Slayers to release their domesticated beasts to detect the traps buried on the ground. These beasts also had a strong sense of smell, and they could easily find their way into the kobold territory.
In some inconspicuous places, traps were found buried underground with a shallow layer of camouflage.
"This is a crossbow trap... This is a blade trap... This is a spike trap... These traps have not been buried for a long time. They may have been put down in the past two days." Bahrain carefully checked and identified the traps he found.
It's just regular stuff, no magic traps to worry about.
After these traps are triggered, the damage caused is not great, but there are too many of them. However, if the heavily armored soldiers of the Sigh Barrier clear the way in front, they are not afraid.
These traps alone cannot harm the solid defense of the heavily armored soldiers of the Barrier of Sighs.
"It means there will be a kobold patrol nearby. It's best to speed up and rush directly into the kobold kingdom to kill them."
The first half of Shiloh's sentence won Bahrain's approval. They were getting closer to the kingdom of the kobolds. Sometimes they could still see the broken carcasses of animals that had been eaten on the ground. Maybe there were kobolds resting not far away.
.
But the second half of the sentence made Bahrain extremely opposed.
What does it mean to rush in quickly and kill a person? At this time, shouldn't it be more cautious?
Shiloh saw Balin's attitude, smiled confidently, and said: "I have cursed these kobolds. They will become exhausted during battle. If you don't believe it, I can prove it to you."
Bahrain raised his eyebrows, as if he was laughing at Shiloh, and his beard twitched. At this moment, a message from the front came suddenly from the front as a scout and killer.
"Kobold scouts were found ahead. There are about 2 teams, with a total of more than 70 people. They haven't discovered us yet and are gathering together to rest."
Balin nodded, looked at Shiloh, and said: "Curse? If you are so sure that your curse is useful, then now is the best time to prove it."
Shiloh nodded, found the Divine Arm Crossbow, and carefully followed the route given by the Slayer. The traps along the way had been cleared, so there was no need to worry about triggering the traps and exposing his whereabouts. Dwarf Balin
Slowly following up with the large army, the Slayers were also ready for battle. This kobold reconnaissance team happened to be on their only way, and they must be eliminated.
Shiloh led the divine arm crossbowmen, bent down, and slowly moved forward under the cover of shrubs and tree trunks. After making a roundabout way, he saw the kobold reconnaissance team. The kobold reconnaissance team in front of him.
It seemed that traps were being laid, gathering in groups of twos and threes, with no sense of alertness at all. Shiloh observed carefully and found that these kobolds would cough lightly from time to time, and it was obvious that they were all infected with the flu.
Shiloh looked at his character panel again. At this time, the number of infected people had reached the full quota of 200, and the number of severely ill patients had reached more than 800. He secretly ordered the god-arm crossbowmen to go around these kobolds.
Wait for the order to attack simultaneously, and never let one of them escape.
The divine arm crossbowmen are extremely agile and can walk through the forest without making any sound. After a while, they were all in position, surrounding the kobolds in a pocket shape, under the cover provided by the local methods of the Slayer.
Next, these kobolds with a keen sense of smell didn't even ask about the smell of everyone. They were not alert at all, which was a good opportunity to take action.
Bahrain was also ready to attack at this time, and carefully touched Shiloh's side, as if he wanted to see if the curse Shiloh said was true or not. Shiloh took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and opened them again.
At that time, the expression in his eyes was only calm and ruthless.
He glanced at these kobolds. At this time, in his sight, an infected status appeared next to all the kobolds, and there was an option next to the status:
[Whether it causes symptoms: yes/no]
Shiloh's mind moved, and he immediately clicked "Yes". He saw these kobolds' bodies froze. The kobold closest to the crowd shook, and suddenly coughed violently and uncontrollably. This cough was so violent that it was almost suspicious.
It was about to cough its lungs out of its body. It covered its mouth with its hands, but could not suppress the cough at all. After coughing twice, it fell to its knees and retched.
The other kobolds immediately noticed the abnormality of this compatriot and were about to check it. Suddenly they felt an uncontrollable cough coming from their bodies. The coughing sound seemed to be contagious. Within two seconds,
All the kobolds began to cough violently, with blood-streaked turbid saliva hanging from their mouths. Some kobolds even coughed twice, their bodies suddenly became cold, their heads became dizzy, and they collapsed directly to the ground.
Shiloh watched this scene expressionlessly, his lips moving slightly.
