"Obis Rakhi! It's the Green Goblin and the Salt Goblin! How can there be forest green goblins and saline trolls here? Also have a shaman? Liu Zhenzhen was stupid.

As soon as these words came out, the people around who were a little knowledgeable were also dumbfounded.

The Green Goblin and the Salt Demon are both a branch of the ogre family, the green goblin's body surface is a leaf-like green protective color, generally only found in the dense coniferous pine forest at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, they are completely different from the ogre in size, because of the long-term living in the forest, their body is more agile and dexterous, but also more treacherous and cunning, far from their own ogre old watches can be compared.

The Salt Demon is a branch of the ogre that lives in the saline forest on the border between Wolf and Fox, the saline forest and the red soil slope are known as the two barren lands in the wasteland, the salt demon who lives in the saline forest likes salt, the size is slightly smaller than the ordinary ogre, but the torso is stronger, they live in the salt cave all year round, and the surface of the body is full of salt crystals, just like the wild boar that rubs the pine resin on the trees and rolls on the sand, this layer of salt crystals is their natural armor.

Like ogres, the Salt Demon and the Green Goblin are both famous Danube natives and thieves.

Unlike the altar shamans of the Beamon Kingdom, the shamans of the bandit tribes are generally "fresh", and will only use the "bloodthirsty", which is a double effect magic that stimulates the half-mad battle instinct.

Green Goblins have skin that can change into a variety of plant colors, and their hair resembles leaves and grass in appearance; The appearance of the Salt Demon is all the crystallization of a layer of salt, and at first glance it looks like a stone.

According to Liu Zhenzhen's estimate, this is probably the reason why the human sentinels failed to spot them, these green goblins turned their skin into the color of withered grass, and their vivid enough to fake their appearance, under the shadow of the barren hills and the dim moonlight, it was really difficult to spot.

Although the Salt Goblin and the Green Goblin are also Danube Bandits, their territory does not belong to the Red Clay Plateau, and there should obviously not be anything to do with each other between the Green Goblin and the Salt Goblin, and the kinship is as nonsense to the robbers as the Goblin claims to be the evolved Beamon of the Moth Rat.

Although Liu Zhenzhen was puzzled, he finally figured out one thing, these robbers are far from being comparable to the bear goblins and ogres who have served their own nests, they actually have shamans!

A bandit with a shaman is not a simple bandit, which means that the combat effectiveness of this bandit team has been about doubled, which is not at all the same level as a stupid bandit like a bear goblin.

To use a popular analogy, this is like comparing Liu Zhenzhen with the prince, one is a small lord, and the other is soaring, with a bird's-eye view of the high position of all living beings.

The sneak attack on the human merchant group must not be surprising to the bandits, but why did one of the salt demon bandits in the saline land and the other green devil bandit begging for food in the woods appear here together? The robbers have always been one of the wells, not the river. Liu Zhenzhen's mind was full of questions.

Here Liu Zhenzhen was thinking hard about why, but the pot exploded in the human camp, and as soon as the salt demons with salt scales all over their bodies joined the battle, these human mercenaries immediately suffered, the salt scales on these salt demons were so thick, the sword was cut up, and the power was small and could not be cut at all, and the big power was at most a piece of salt, and only the heavy weapon of the meteor hammer in the hands of the rangers could have a huge killing effect.

In addition to having a hard salt helmet, the salt demon also has a layer of natural petrified skin, under this double protection, the salt demon is simply like a heavy infantry with heavy iron armor, which is not at all a mercenary who most of them only have light weapons can compete, although the meteor hammer of the ranger cavalry can smash the scale armor of these salt demons, but their number is too small, and because the battle line is too close, they lose the path of the war horse to sprint, and from time to time even people and horses are overturned.

The rain had stopped, and Shampa was quietly revealing his shy face in the clouds.

The three Green Goblin shamans who were performing bloodthirsty spells were particularly conspicuous, and the red aura sowed by the staff made these Green Goblin Salt Demon robbers ignore the pain and become more and more brave the more they fight.

The Salt Goblin and Green Goblin bandits are so numerous that this battle has been doomed since the attack.

Most of the robbers in the wasteland are dozens of people who come out to attack the merchants, this human merchant group is equipped with two hundred mercenaries and ranger guards, originally thought that it must be more than enough as a protective force, but once it encounters a large bandit gang of more than a thousand people, there is also a part of helplessness.

Seeing that several attempts to break through were overwhelmed by the bandits' tactics of crowds, a white flag was immediately erected from the crowd of mercenaries huddled together, and the texture of the white flag embroidered with gold trim should be the sacred white robe of a certain priest.

In front of this white flag with international meaning, the robbers also gradually stopped under the command of the leader, and several killer salt demons were reprimanded by the leaders, and also carried blood-stained weapons to the side.

The human merchant with a mole was a little bold, and under the heavy protection of a few mercenaries with shields, he stepped out of the crowd and negotiated with the robbers.

The corpses on the ground around them were eaten by the Salt Devil and the Green Goblin, and in a few moments, each of the robbers standing was already gnawing on a bloody piece of meat.

Liu Zhenzhen and the mastiff stood on the barren hill and watched, while explaining, Ning Yu and Avril spit out sour water.

"What are these robbers trying to do?" Liu Zhenzhen frowned.

"Kill it!" Corina jumped for the first time.

He was told by his boss that he was itching, what salt-scale armor, what kind of body color, he could only try the color under my ivory long knife.

"Yes, yes!" Vieri also died in a hurry.

"The two knights, as a professional soldier, should not lose patience even if they lurk for three days and three nights. Don't worry, the musk slaves are not in the center of the fight, although none of them run, but none of them die. Liu Zhenzhen sneered: "These robbers are so weird, I can't help but be a little curious." ”

Absurdities always happen on the grasslands.

The head of the Sherpa slave trade with a mole and the leader of the Salt Demon Green Goblin spoke fiercely for a long time, the distance was too far, Liu Zhenzhen didn't know what they were talking about, only saw that after talking for a long time, the human merchant pointed at the musk slaves tied to the cart in the distance, and foamed at the mouth.

Tell Ning Yu and Avril Avril, the two of them can't figure out what the specific reason is, the ogre will never give up on food, these humans are the best fresh meat in their eyes, if they want to use the musk people as a price, this kind of car protection, will the robbers agree?

After a period of chirping and talking, the bandit leader actually let these Green Goblin and Salt Goblin bandits get out of the way, freed the remnants of more than a hundred mercenaries and merchants, and returned them some dry food.

Liu Zhenzhen saw that there was a leader of the salt demon bandits, and he actually patted the head of the Sherpa merchant group on the shoulder very politely.

The freed mercenaries and merchants disappeared into the wilderness without looking back.

"What?" Liu Zhenzhen absolutely didn't believe that these robbers had suddenly become bodhisattvas, these man-eating robbers, for them, any race that could walk and move was their food, in the case of winter, how could they suddenly have great compassion?

"Boss, let me take a few people to take a detour to chase those humans, right?" Goode asked.

"It doesn't really mean much to catch up with these humans, our main goal is to rescue the musk people." Liu Zhenzhen shook his head slowly: "Humans will come back sooner or later, and they can clean up when they want, but these green goblins and salt demons may not be able to come here next year, let me see again." ”

The militia here were discussing all sorts of unbelievable things fiercely, and the Salt Goblin and Green Goblin over there quickly cleaned up the battlefield.

The wagons were piled up in a small hill, full of uneaten corpses, these bloody corpses were tied to the wagon, and the shoulder blades of the musk deer captives were pierced by the dryads with long rattans, like a large meat skewer, escorted by more than a thousand Green Goblins and Salt Goblin robbers, all the way north.

By the time Liu Zhenzhen and the militia arrived, there was only a deathly silence and a miserable scene in hell in the entire human camp.

Human bones covered in scarlet blood were thrown haphazardly on the ground, gnawed cleanly, without a trace of flesh, and leather boots rattled on them.

Ning Yu and Avril stood far away, smelling the thick smell of blood in the air, and they didn't dare to lean over at all.

The militiamen picked up a lot of palm-sized pieces of salt wafers on the grass, these salt wafers were very crystalline, pinched into their hands heavy, and there was a disgusting and strange smell.

"It was the rain that broke the armor off these salt demons." Liu Zhenzhen smiled and pinched these ** salt tablets into powder.

Bellamy's eyes were sharp, and he actually found a silver coin trampled in rain and sludge from a collapsed tent, this silver coin has an unusually intricate pattern and decoration, and the workmanship is extremely exquisite and smooth, the silver coin has a crown printed on the front, and tulips and tassels on the back, and several abbreviated letters of San Francisco on it.

This silver coin is the so-called standard coin of the kingdom of man, San Francisco, and the silver coin of the Kingdom of Beamon is rough in workmanship, and there is no ability to print letters and patterns on it, so the coins of the kingdom of man and the coins of the Kingdom of Beamon are one to two in exchange.

That's how value is measured sometimes.

Liu Zhenzhen took the silver coin and put it to his mouth and blew it, put it to his ear, and immediately a crisp sound floated by.

"Capitalism." Liu Zhenzhen said. The coin was then confiscated.

"Let's kill it! When the day dies, he will bear the board first, and rob them! Goode rummaged around for a long time, and there was nothing left of the large items except for two packets of coffee beans and a few deflated coffee pots on the campfire in a tent soaked in muddy water. Thinking about the dazzling array of equipment on those mercenaries and rangers, Goode's eyes lit up with ghostly fire.

When this was said to everyone's hearts, the militiamen rolled their eyes and glared at the boss.

"Don't worry, none of these trophies can escape, and the way home for these two bandits is definitely not to the north, but to the south." Liu Zhenzhen rubbed the mud on his riding boots on the felt cloth tent.

He picked up a coffee pot and rounded it with his hands again.

The gurgling water of the stream washed away the blood just now, and it was still spotlessly clean.

"Go get some hay, get a pot of coffee, and then it's not too late to go home." Liu Zhenzhen said.

"Home? Why? The militiamen's eyes widened.

"Why don't you go home? These guys are pushing carts with slaves, walking as slowly as snails, now go and do their job, the terrain here is not very suitable for the impact of mammoth cavalry, there is no suddenness! Do you militia really go toe-to-toe with these hard-shelled salt demons? Depend on! I'm not that stupid! "Let's go home first, take a shower, have some breakfast, and then go and clean them up, and I assure you that they will definitely pass by the Troll Wasteland, because - I already know where they want to go." ”

It was already early morning when the militiamen returned, the sun was showing a poached egg-like red corner, and most of the people had stayed up all night.

When the Quink sentry on duty saw them on the horizon, he woke everyone up, and everyone was eager to know how their battle would be.

Contrary to what many people suspected, the militia returned empty-handed.

Under everyone's strange gaze, the militiamen drove the mammoths under their seats into the red clay square, their rattan armor without the slightest trace of blood, the knightly spears of the mammoths, and even the freshly cut white stubble.

Originally, if the militia and Richard returned victoriously, Cui Beiqian would definitely be worried about how they would deal with the aftermath, but when the militiamen returned bloodlessly, Cui Beiqian felt a faint pain in her heart.

In fact, deep down, she was looking forward to Richard's return from a big victory.

There are only two possibilities for going home empty-handed.

The first possibility: the mastiff warriors possess a keen sense of smell, which can make these human slave traders hide, and the humans put on their wings and fly out of the Danube.

Another possibility is that Richard changed his mind.

The former may be more nonsense, then only the latter is possible.

Although she knew that it was wise to do so, this answer still made Cui Beiqian's heart feel sullen for a while.

Gotanni walked down the stairs from Qianmo, her beautiful and slender eyes staring at Liu Zhenzhen, and a trace of disdain was inadvertently revealed.

"Richard" Helen met Ailang, who jumped off the mammoth, with a look of concern.

Liu Zhenzhen hugged Ning Yu and Avril from the mammoth, took the cheese and goat's milk handed over by the halfling chef, and raised his head to drink violently.

"Tell you a bad news, and a good news, which one do you listen to first?" Liu Zhenzhen wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve.

"The good news, isn't it enlightened?" Cui Beiqian looked at Liu Zhenzhen with a smile, as if she was "complimenting".

"The answer is wrong." Liu Zhenzhen took a big bite of cheese, stuffed a little for the little piglet, and stuffed a little for the fruit: "The good news is that the population of our Fei Leng Cui will soon increase. ”

"And what about the bad news?" Cui Beiqian asked.

"The bad news is – we're going to have a battle!" Liu Zhenzhen laughed: "We can catch a lot of captives this time!" ”

"Campaign?" Gotanie looked at Liu Zhen strangely.

"Last night I followed the human slave trade for three hours until I finally reached their camp, only to find that they had been attacked long before we arrived." Liu Zhenzhen snapped his fingers, and Goode took a silver coffee pot.

"Who can sweep away a merchant group with two hundred mercenary guards?" Cui Beiqian thought it was incredible.

"Our good neighbors, bandits of the Danube." Liu Zhenzhen smiled.

"Impossible!" Cui Beixi and Gotanie shouted at the same time.

The robbers in the wasteland have always gone out to rob in groups of dozens of people, even if they are like the bear goblins who premeditated the sneak attack on Fei Lengcui last time, dispatching more than a hundred people at a time This kind of large-scale operation will definitely not fight against a well-equipped large mercenary group, generally speaking, there is no four to five times the strength difference, the bandits in the wasteland will choose to follow you first, and then gather people and horses, and then carry out the robbery.

The mercenaries of this Sherpa slave trade were as many as two hundred people, as well as rangers on horseback, they were well-equipped and skilled in martial arts, although the number was not very large, but it should be absolutely enough to deter the bandits and robbers of the rabble in the wasteland.

"I'm not kidding." Liu Zhenzhen restrained his smile and became serious: "After tracking in the middle of the night, the mastiffs followed the footprints along the way, and finally caught up with these mercenaries, and before we could do it, these mercenaries were attacked by a group of Salt Demon and Green Goblin bandit coalition with a number of about 1,500 people, these robbers are really powerful!" Kill a human by surprise, classic! ”

"Salt Goblin and Green Goblin bandits? How can there be such a presence of the Salt Goblin and the Green Goblin? They're not local robbers! "Everybody's blindsided.

"I'll tell you the unfortunate news that these Green Goblin and Salt Goblin bandits also have shamans who can use bloodthirsty magic." Liu Zhenzhen threw another bombshell.

"The robber's shaman?" Exclamations rang out.

"History continues to repeat itself," muttered Anthuran the tortoiseshell elder.

"I agree with your estimate, Elder Andulan. This is probably the reunification of the bandits of the wasteland, and the same way that they drove the hill dwarves out of the Danube, driving us away from here, or exterminating them all. Liu Zhenzhen touched his beard and narrowed his eyes.

"What about human mercenaries? And what happened to our Dir musk people? Helen asked.

"The human mercenaries suffered heavy casualties and later surrendered, but then I didn't know what happened, this group of robbers actually let them go, and I couldn't figure out what the reason was. Rest assured, the musk people are alive and well, they didn't take part in the battle, and none of them were hurt. According to the habits of the ogre and their affiliates recorded in the Code of Sacrifices, the musk men would be rations for the Salt Demon and the Green Goblin, but the robbers had no intention of killing the food and putting it on their shoulders until they had a meal. These robbers have also carried away a large number of corpses of human mercenaries who died in battle, and even if they are hungry, they should not eat musk men first, so you can rest assured. Liu Zhenzhen smiled.

"We need to get help from outside! Richard! It's terrifying for bandits to join forces, not to mention the fact that these bandits already have shamans, and the Razor Mountain goblin tribe of goblins who breed behemoths intervene. Cui Beiqian's expression was very solemn.

"No, you don't!" Liu Zhenzhen waved his hand at the beautiful snake: "Master Mentor! I'm just here to tell you about this, and we're going to face a large-scale bandit battle soon. I don't need foreign aid, in fact, it's useless to ask for help, the nearest military station to us is at least a hundred miles away, what can I do with them? Do you want to wait for the approval of the commanders of the provincial military department? When they come across the Sangan, will we count the number of slaves? Besides, if reinforcements were to be requested, it might be when Helen left, right? It's so unsafe here, doesn't it just give the temple a reason to transfer her? They took slaves and booty with them, and walked slowly, and anyway, to go to Razor Mountain, they had to pass through the plains of the troll mounds near the high slopes of the red earth, where I happened to ambush them, and they were caught off guard! ”

"There are fifteen hundred brave and warlike Salt Devils and Green Goblins on the other side, and there are also shamans, and I will accompany you." Cui Beiqian said.

"You can use a knife to kill chickens, and half of our militia can be settled, this time you don't need your wulong sacrifice to go out of the horse, just wait for our news at home." Now that the robbers are united, there will be a time for you to worry about fatigue in the future. Liu Zhenzhen smiled.

"Why are you so confident?" Cui Beiqian looked at Liu Zhenzhen.

"Are you not confident that you can do a dragon sacrifice?" Liu Zhenzhen smiled freely, turned to the hippos and said, "Half an hour, go back to the water once, moisten your skin, and take a bath and have breakfast by the way." ”

"You two stay, too." Liu Zhenzhen said to Ning Yu and Avril: "If you go this time, you will have nightmares for the rest of your life." ”
