Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Gobi Desert

Smoke? Black umbrellas, pebbles? Green umbrellas and bugs? Several mushroom elites expressed their gratitude to Yuan Mu and them, and went to gather their respective teams to find the mushroom king.

Yuan Mu sighed as he looked at their departing backs.

"What's wrong?" Fu Luo felt that Yuan Mu was not in a very good mood, and asked gently.

"It's nothing," Yuan Mu smiled at Flo, "I just think that the mainland will soon be chaotic, and there will be more and more such things." ”

"No matter what, I'll be by your side, and we can protect our territory."

"Well, let's just do our job."

Yuan Mu suddenly felt that something was wrong, it wasn't Amelia beside him!

"Flo, why are you so gentle all of a sudden? It's not like your personality, I'm a little unused to it. ”

"Nasty." Flo smacked him familiarly, "Elder Oria told me to be nice to you. ”

Will Elder Oria still teach this? Yuan Mu remembered that Oliya always looked stern and rigid.

"You've been very nice to me, and I'm already happy that you're by my side."

"Ahem." Utga coughed twice. The Taudino Blood Moon had long since pretended to look at the scenery in the distance.

"It's time for us to discuss the next steps."

Beaufer? Silverhammer also wanted to go to the vicinity of Silverhammer Village to check the current situation of Silverhammer Village. Seeing the destruction of the mushroom village, Beaufer? The silver hammer couldn't resist his worries.

However, Yuan Mu and Utga disagreed, there should be many enemies near Silver Hammer Village now, and it was very dangerous. Beaufer? Silverhammer was the only one of them who knew where the village was located, and if something happened, the plan would not be easy to implement.

Yuan Mu persuaded: "Now the Manya Village must be very empty, we can only force them back by sneaking up on the Manya Village or the resource buildings near the Manya Village, at least part of it, which can also reduce the pressure on the Silver Hammer Village." ”

Utga also said: "The barbarian troops are menacing, and if we don't take some special measures, I'm afraid we won't be able to change their decision." My troops have been exposed, and we may never have such a good opportunity again. If Silverhammer Village can't hold on for two days, we may not be able to help if we go. ”

Beaufer? Silverhammer was persuaded and led them to the edge of the Ancestral Forest.

The road was silent, although it was usually quiet in the ancestral forest, but it would not be like now, and there were basically no wild creatures. I don't know if I hid or was killed.

When they were about to reach the junction of the Ancestral Forest and the Gobi, the scout reported: "There is a new lumberyard in front, there are many war pig people who are cutting wood on a large scale, and there are two squads of guards, both of which are level 2. ”

"Bypass them or attack them?" Yuan Mu asked Utega.

Attacking the lumber yard and driving a few more people to the barbarian camp in Silverhammer can immediately relieve the pressure on Silverhammer. Knowing that a troop had entered the Gobi and was moving towards Manya Village, the Pigmen should immediately send a force back to defend it.

However, attacking the lumberyard will cause them to leak their whereabouts in advance, bringing them danger, and they will be more likely to be surrounded by the barbarian forces who have returned to the defense. And if there happens to be a barbarian unit nearby, it will make them very uncomfortable.

At war with the barbarian enemy, Yuan Mu and Utega were not afraid. It's just that I'm worried that this army won't fight them, but will follow them, constantly harassing them, and focusing on the construction of defenses in their route, which will give Yuan Mu and them a headache.

Utga shook his head and said, "We are not capable of fighting many enemies at the same time, and the sooner it is exposed, the more disadvantageous it will be for us." It's about the same distance from Silverhammer and Manya, and I think we should hide it. ”

They were here to help Silverhammer Village, and they didn't want to lose themselves and their subordinates. Yuan Mu also thought the same thing.

"Then let's get around them."

"Why are these pig warriors in such a hurry to open up new logging sites? Now the Barbarian Village is obviously empty, are they very short of wood? "Utga asked Pouffer? Silver hammer.

"It is very scarce, there are not many wood resources on the Gobi, except for the ancestral forest, I can only go to the remote mountains in the south of the Gobi. They cut down the forest without restraint, which is one of the reasons for our war with the village of Manya. ”

The Gobi is the name of the Gobi Desert in the south of the forest.

Beaufer? The Silver Hammer led Yuan Mu and them around the lumber yard to find a new road to Manya Village.

"Let's take a break, we are about to enter the Gobi Desert, most of the troops will not be adaptable, we must be fully prepared."

The troops stopped to rest, and Yuan Mu stood at the edge of the forest, looking out at the chaotic Gobi.

I saw that the Gobi was full of gravel, and you could see some air-dried stone mountains everywhere, and you could also see some low shrubs. The Gobi stretches to this side, as if it had been suddenly cut off by a forest.

As soon as you enter the Ancestral Forest, there are tall trees, dense vegetation, and there is a clear dividing line between the Gobi and the Ancestral Forest. This is unusual, and usually there is at least some sparse woodland as a buffer.

Yuan Mu felt strange, came to the dividing line, and looked at the soil on the ground. The soil on this side of the forest was covered with vegetation, and Yuan Mu called two people to dig it up.

"Hmmm......"

"Did you find anything?" Flo had been watching Yuan Mu's actions from the side, and only asked when she saw that Yuan Mu had some ideas.

"I'm not an expert." Yuan Mu smiled, "I just found that the forest under our feet seems to be the Gobi Desert, maybe for some reason so many huge trees and other plants suddenly grew." ”

"Maybe it's a giant natural magic?"

"Possibly, that's amazing, because the Gobi looks like there's still a long way to go."

------------------------------------------------

The troops marched on hard ground, Beaufer? "That's why we hardly take the initiative to attack Manya Village, it's too barren and not suitable for us to survive. ”

"But a lot of creatures love it here, there are so many savage villages here."

"Barbarian creatures don't quite like to live on the Gobi either." "There are plenty of savage creatures to be found in the mountains, grasslands, and other places. ”

Yuan Mu remembered that Tao Snow was from Escalo, and the orc lord's territory was on the edge of the valley plain, very close to the Skyrim Mountains, and the territory contained grasslands, mountains, and some sparse woodlands.

"There's a creature flying over there." Delia pointed to the sky in front of her and said suddenly, her eagle-eye talent could see farther than the average cliff eagle.

"It's Rock Eagle, is it here to spy on us? Could it be that we were discovered so quickly? Utga looked at the rock eagle flying towards him in amazement. Silverhammer said that there were no barbarian forces or barbarian camp in the vicinity.

"Not necessarily, maybe there is a unit nearby." Yuan Mu guessed.

If you want to say what you are most worried about when you enter the Gobi, one is that you are afraid that you will be surrounded by barbarian troops and will not be able to return to the forest; The second is that this is the home of the barbarian troops, and the reconnaissance capabilities of Yuan Mu and the Utega troops are still insufficient compared to the barbarian troops. They cannot grasp the movements of the barbarian troops, but are prone to be attacked in a prepared manner.

"These rock eagles are about to discover us."

Yuan Mu put on the mask of a pretender and said, "Don't worry, Utega, let me come this time." ”

Wildtalon Village also lacks flying troops, and the flying class brought by Utga is a white-feathered forest bird recruited from the Wildtalon class building. This is a level 2 class that does not have high production and mediocre combat effectiveness, but can quickly move through the forest.

Yuan Mu said to the two level 4 rare demon birds, "Go and kill them." ”

After the Wind Fury Wizard and the Giant Demon Bird were obtained by Yuan Mu, they have been cultivated as treasures, and now that they are adults, Yuan Mu has used them as secret weapons, and now they can play a role.

The giant demon bird was the first to fly into the sky, its wings were very large, and every flap was very powerful, and it approached the rock eagles in a while.

The giant demon bird is a rare class of troops at level 4, and its body size is much larger than these level 2 rock eagles, and the giant demon bird can directly catch people to the nest.

Several rock eagles couldn't fight it and tried to escape, but the Wind Fury Wizard caught up with it and fired two wind blades, shooting down the next rock eagle. The giant demon bird also pursued the fleeing rock eagle, and did not let go of a single one.

Yuan Mu looked at the demon bird and smiled: "The performance is not bad, it seems that there is no need to be afraid of the reconnaissance force with only a few rock eagles." ”

"Beware of higher-level cliff eagles, they are very fast. Let's move on and avoid them. ”

Utga didn't expect things to go so badly, there happened to be a troop nearby.

"I think we can attack them directly."

"What do you mean?"

"This unit is on our way, the detour is too troublesome, and a few rock eagles have died, they will find out sooner or later. It's better to surprise this unit before they can react. This place is far enough away from Silverhammer Village, and by the time the barbarian troops of Silverhammer Village react, we will have reached Barbarian Village. ”

Utga thought about it seriously and nodded, "Yes, but we'll have to speed up later." ”

Mogaok? Brute Fang is a Pigman Fighter who has just advanced to Hero and is only level 2/1.

Gama, the lord of Barbarian Tooth Village? Instead of taking him to attack Silverhammer Village, the Brute Fang left him in the territory to help manage affairs and gather resources.

Due to the long-term war with Silverhammer Village, as long as there are some accumulated Manya Village in the mining cave resource points in the territory, they will send people to transport these resources back to the village.

Now he is riding a Gobi monitor lizard mount, leading his troops to the newly opened lumberyard to transport the wood back to Manya Village, and the rock eagle is also a habit he has sent out to reconnoitre.

Just Mogaok? When Manfang was bored and regretted not going to attack Silverhammer Village together, a bear-man army suddenly rushed out from behind the stone mountain next to him, screaming and attacking them.

After Yuan Mu and the others decided to take the initiative to attack, they sped up and moved forward, and when they detected the traces of this unit, they also understood that it was a false alarm.

This is a transport unit, and most of the troops are low-level troops, and only a few squads of escorts have some combat effectiveness. Yuan Mu and Utga immediately changed their minds, from raiding to ambushing and encircling.

Mogaok? When the barbarian saw such a high-level bear-man unit appear, he didn't even want to fight, and ran back directly with his personal guards and escorts.

But he didn't run far before he saw a troop surrounding him from behind, Mogaok? The brute gritted his teeth and jumped off his beloved Gobi monitor lizard, trying to rush out before the encirclement was completed. The Gobi monitor lizard can carry a lot of heavy objects, but it is not fast, and this is not his mount, it belongs to the village of Manya.

Yuan Mu's troops and Mogaok? The fangs' subordinates are entangled, but Mogaok? Brute Fang still rushed out despite the archer's bow and arrows.

"Blood Moon, catch up, that's a hero."

The blood moon patted the blood wolf under him, and the blood wolf pounced obediently, accelerating with all his might, and caught up with Mogaok in a short time? Brute Fangs.

The fighting on Utga's side was also quickly over, and many of the convoys were captured, with only a few escaping on wildebeest, which was supposed to be a cargo carrier.

The battle is over on the Blood Moon's side, Mogaok? The brute tooth couldn't beat the blood moon in the first place, and now he was dragged and sentenced to death.

In addition to capturing some resources and a level 3 Gobi monitor lizard mount, a number of captives surrendered. They are not pigmen, but big-eared monsters who have been enslaved by pigmen.

Utega came to Yuan Mu's side with a level 2 elite big-eared monster and said to him, "This is Gnison, the leader of the big-eared monster group. ”

The big-eared monster is a relatively large race of savagery, and the ordinary big-eared monster is a level 1 class, some big-eared monsters can ride wolves to fight, and some talented ones can also become battle mages.

Yuan Mu and Utga need guides to understand this Gobi, and Gnison may be able to do it, Pouffer? Silverhammer just knew where the village was.

Gnison introduced himself: "We were originally living in a nearby tribe of big-eared monsters, the tribe was wiped out by the pigmen, and we were enslaved as slaves. ”

"The battle on the Gobi is much more brutal than ours." Beaufer? "Many small villages and tribes have to make offerings to several large cities, and there is danger at any time, and there are more first-class cities in our forest than in the entire Gobi. ”

No wonder the barbaric cities of the Gobi are not united, no one wants other cities to become bigger in this environment, for fear that they will become enslaved parties, and at most a few small cities will unite against the big cities.

"But why are they coming together now?" Yuan Mu looked at Gnison, hoping that he would know the answer.

"Because Black Rock City has produced a hero, Arnold, a half-ogre hero with a large number of flying troops, and it is said that he has the blood of the Roc." Gnison didn't disappoint Yuan Mu, Black Rock City was the level 3 mixed city on the Chaotic Gobi.

According to Gnison, Black Rock was the only city in the Gobi Desert without a city lord, and the founder of the city was wiped out by several forces, all of which took root in it, but after a short period of cooperation, no one was convinced.

The overall strength of Black Rock City is stronger than that of another level 3 centaur city, Blood Pattern City, after all, these forces have jointly captured the level 3 city. However, due to the division of the city's forces, it is not actually advantageous in the battle with Bloodstripe City.

Arnold didn't have a clan, he was just a half-ogre. One of the several factions in Black Rock is the Ogre Tribe, who loathe Arnold, who is half-ogre, and Arnold grows up in ridicule and humiliation.

But with his tenacity and natural leadership qualities, he gradually grew into a hero and joined another force in Black Rock City, a Gobi beast tamer.

Arnold soon showed a talent for taming beasts, especially the brutal flying creatures, and he quickly rose to prominence in this force and quickly rose to the backbone of the tamer's power.

But in the battle for the next leader, Arnold unexpectedly loses to another hero who is far inferior to him. Only then did he learn that the previous leader had favored another candidate, and that the original ogre forces were also in the way, which made him lose the competition.

Arnold is gone, no one knows where he went, and the taverns of Black Rock City are sighing for him. But soon after, he returned, and with him a large army of savage flying troops.

Arnold entered Black Rock City strongly, the original ogre forces were expelled from the city by him, the beast tamer forces were absorbed by him, the previous leader of the beast tamer forces and the new leader who was about to take office were executed by him, and the other two forces also expressed their obedience to his orders.

After becoming the lord of Black Rock City, Arnold did not stop his steps, he sent his subordinates to contact the forces of the Ranhoof Gobi, and subdued them, and gathered forces to attack the ancestral forest together, those barbarian flying troops were Arnold's gift.
