Chapter 6: Hunting (1)

Trekking through mountains and rivers, the temperature gets cooler and cooler as the altitude increases. The deeper you go, the more you feel the vastness and pristine nature of the Oran Mountains. It is a world of opportunity and adventure, where tens of thousands of species of plants and animals recognized and recorded by the alchemy school can be found.

However, it is also too dangerous, for humans it is not only a paradise for ferocious beasts, but also hides mysterious and powerful intelligent alien races.

For example, legend has it that deep in the Oran Mountains there is a vast empire of ancient elves. They have gorgeous elven armor, blessed elven swords that never break, and powerful magic that is unrivaled......

There are also brutal and ignorant two-headed ogres and trolls...... and all sorts of other heirs of ancient beasts, but the most terrifying of all is the Frost Giant. Born hostile to the gods, this humanoid creature is rumored to be able to compete with some dragons as an adult.

The Northern Barrier, Glory Anos, has fought countless infestations of frost giants to protect the north at the beginning of the Flame Relay Divine War, and has even repelled and expelled them to more primitive wilderness and ice fields.

The Lord of the North, Janos, was a faithful believer in the gods, and the Emperor's arm was canonized as the Great Lord of the North.

And the savage ice fields deep in the Oran Mountains undoubtedly still have the descendants of a frost giant.

……

"My lord, this is the paw of the Flame Comodo! You can see from the tip of its middle finger to the heel, even more than half a yard. It's hard to imagine how big he would be, at least 11 yards long! Jack the Hunter still had some vision, and he jumped off his horse and rushed to the footprints, and then explained to the knight as if he were offering a treasure.

"Very well, you are a capable hunter. But what do you think, Lord Oran? The knight turned his head.

Originally, Orlan didn't want to talk too much, let them eat some hidden losses or something while hunting, but now the employer has spoken. He thought for a moment and said, "12.6 yards." ”

You must know that the tongue of the flame Comodo is not only long, but also attached to sharp barbs, and even violent fire poison, I believe that those who have been "licked" by it will not be more comfortable than being scratched by it.

"My lord, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. I've seen this forest fire no less than a hundred times. "Jack, of course, doesn't want to be disgraced by a kid.

"But you haven't killed once, have you, you ...... kid," the soldier named Zack thought for a moment and kept his mouth shut, his attitude towards Orlan had changed since that time when he was abused. From the hatred at the beginning, he slowly became indifferent, and finally he even took food with a face to "ask" Oran about the use of the shield.

Oran refused a few times, but he still didn't give up. Later, he became more and more respectful to Oran, and even let others see who was his adult. Even if Oran didn't eat soft and hard, he couldn't hold on and casually pointed out a few words to him.

"Your Excellency, don't believe this kid's nonsense, I've heard your noble subordinates talk about what Komodo this kid killed recently. You have to know which one died of the plague, and he happened to pick it up. ”

The stocky hunter took off the little fur hat from his head and put it on his chest, sat on his horse, bowed his body and humbly said to the knight, "It was just a little stupid to look like that."

Swish! At this moment, Oran suddenly pulled out the short sword behind him.

"Hey, hey! Boy, you're not going to kill people if you don't get along, are you? Think I'm not a wolf slayer Mark is not easy to mess with......"

"Shut up! Be quiet. The knight's low snort turned Mark the Humpty Fat Hunter into a wilted fat quail.

"All of them, be on alert! …… And watch your step. The knight read Oran's downward finger.

The soldiers also reacted quickly, their swords and shields were ready, and the formation was immediately set up. The knight, Oran, and Mark beside him were all guarded.

Jack, who was still next to the footprints of Comodo, came back to his senses, slowly drew his long sword, and said in his mouth, "My lord, please don't panic. It's all because that kid is nervous, just a little pure blue crow flew over the tree, and I saw it in my eyes. Besides, I've just heard it on my knees, if there's a movement in the Comodo......"

Rumble! …… Before Jack could finish speaking, he saw the rock and soil under his feet suddenly expand and explode! As the horses neighed, a huge brown-red monster emerged from the ground, and a bloody mouth stopped and bit the brown horse.

Jack was also swept away by the onslaught from the beast. The sudden and great movement frightened the horses of the knights and hunters. Fortunately, the soldiers had already dismounted, and their horses were tied not far away.

Flame Comodo bit the whole horse and shook his head, then left the dead horse carcass aside, his long, forked tongue about 1.6 yards around the whole head licking the horse's blood clean, and his yellow-brown vertical pupils stared at the crowd.

It twisted in place and twisted around a few times, but its head never left the sight of the crowd, a precursor to the beast's need to see if the food was good before hunting.

Hiss...... Roar! Comodo opened his mouth again, his voice going from sharp to rough. It's like warning people not to mess with it! Then the long barbed tongue licked back and forth over the horse's corpse, announcing in a high-profile manner that it was its trophy.

And how could Jack, the hunter who fell to the ground, understand this? He looked up and saw that the huge and terrible monster was overhead, and the urine could not be controlled and his pants could not be controlled. He wanted to cry without tears, his mouth was wide open, and he couldn't even hold the sword in his hand.

It would be fine if he just lay there and pretended to be dead, but the crux of the matter was that he actually peed. Knowing that the Flame Comodo divides its territory by urine, what will it do when it discovers a bed bug under its chin and sends it signals of demonstration and provocation?

Orlan couldn't save him, and the Flame Comodo's tail, which was thicker than an adult strong man, swept through it in an instant, and it didn't even look at Jack twice. It was like fanning a bug and fanned Jack against a nearby rock.

The sound of broken bones and watery skin sacs bursting makes people's scalps tingle just by listening to them. Poor Jack didn't even have a chance to wail a few more times.

Roar...... Roar! This time the flame Komodo was really angry. For everyone, a bad battle is inevitable.

"Positive! Sword and shield defense! Under the command of the knights, the warriors tacitly brought their shields close to each other and overlapped them, leaving a gap to ensure that they could swing their swords forward.

At the same time, Orlan could feel the kind of power emanating from the knight's body, which made everyone's strength slightly increase and their minds more determined. It was the first time he had fought with a knight, perhaps this was why the knight class gradually replaced the warrior in war.
