Chapter 013: Radiant Crystal Ball (Repair)
Bahrain stayed in the town of Lolkadan, and Yang Jiangong himself left the town of Lolkadan with only 100 glorious swordsmen.
After a day's march along the banks of the Rapids River from south to west, through a damp woodland, there is an endless forest of thorns.
As he passed through the damp woodland, Yang promised Catherine to serve as a scout, as agreed to be an experience of courage.
It's just that Catherine's exclamation came from the front, and Yang Jiangong couldn't help but waver in what he had already approved.
In this world, women have the same rights as men. However, a certain part of Yang Jiangong's concept still believes that "as long as you are a woman, you should stay away from fighting and staying away from games that belong to men." β
"Catherine!"
Yang Jianquan rushed over first. It's just that the next scene in front of me is not as dangerous as imagined.
"I, I killed it."
Catherine said to herself in disbelief.
Yang Jiangong saw that her right hand holding the sword was still trembling slightly.
Under the fluffy fur hat inside, Catherine's face was slightly pale, her chest rose and fell violently, and her pursed lips seemed to suppress the nausea that wanted to rush out of her throat.
The head of the jungle ogre on the ground, the corpse still twitching.
The incision on the neck was neat, and bright red blood was still spraying outward, and in the pink trembling flesh, green tendons were exposed, and something like blood-red threads were attached to it.
"It's dead, don't be afraid." Yang Jiangong comforted the girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old a little.
When he looked directly at the thick blood up close, he crouched next to the corpse.
"Is this an ogre?"
I have read a lot in books, but this is the first time Yang Jiangong has seen this creature with his own eyes.
Because of its old age, its claws are black, and its teeth are unremarkably yellow. But the most distinctive thing is its round eyeball, which has a white pupil inside.
"Well, this seems to be a low-level ogre."
By consulting books, Yang Jiangong knew that low-level ogres generally had light blue or light green skin, horns, and different hair colors from skin tones.
Long blue hair with green skin and long green hair with blue skin look like an imaginative creature. In addition to being slightly larger than humans, it generally has a large mouth, sharp fangs, and a powerful jaw that clearly indicates its carnivorous nature.
And the white pupils, this is probably a common feature of all ogres.
"The road ahead has become dangerous. Catherine, you should return to Lore Cardin. Well, here's the order. β
An old, thin, slow-moving blue-skinned ogre can only allow Catherine to prove her mettle. But it doesn't mean that she will have a second such good fortune. So Yang Jiangong asked her to return in a commanding tone.
"My King's ......"
Catherine wanted to stay by the side of the Radiant Emperor, and her eyes showed reluctance.
But Yang Jiangong's order was to let her immediately turn back the way she came.
"Ahββββh
In fact, the next scene proves that Catherine not only does not have so much good luck.
An old blue-skinned ogre is not as easy to deal with as imagined.
The moment Catherine lifted the reins and turned the horse's head, the soil beneath the horse's hooves suddenly collapsed softly, and a trap set by an ogre suddenly engulfed her.
"Be careful!" Yang Jiangong's trusted guard officer Leon exclaimed in surprise with several swordsmen who were close to each other and rushed over quickly.
A false alarm.
Frightened, Catherine spasmed her grip on the slippery rope, but the horse struggled so wildly that the rope shook incessantly in her hand, and she pulled and pulled as hard as she could, until at last her own foot tripped over the branch in the pit.
With the help of the guard officer Leon, the horse was finally pulled up, but the horse's front legs were wrapped around the rattan, and she could not untie it for a long time, and in her great anger she bit it with her teethβthe bitter, stenching knot soaked in foul smell and disgusting slime.
However, with Yang Jiangong's more cautious thinking, it is not difficult to deduce that if Catherine stepped on the ogre's trap first, then she would be smashed into her skull by a big stick full of spikes at the first time, and instantly turned into a warm corpse in this cold weather.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
As it turned out, Yang Jiangong was right to let Catherine return to Loel Cardin.
As the cold wind blowing through the ears and temples became bitter, the silver-gray clouds were galloping in the sky, and the cold snap was rolling, and it seemed that a heavy snow was brewing.
"Hopefully the bad weather won't last long."
Keep running through the damp woodland, concentrating on any hint of wind and grass in the woodland. Yang Jiangong could see his own breathing, as well as the breaths of the swordsmen, all turning into puffs of white smoke floating backwards.
The wind is getting stronger.
"Hurry up, we're going to cross this woodland as soon as possible!"
Hearing Yang Jiangong's urging, all 100 glorious swordsmen ran with all their might.
However, snow fell in the sky and the wind continued to increase.
Yang Jiangong felt that the tip of his heart was like a hammer that was constantly changing, but it was connected to a thin cotton thread, which made this time even more difficult.
"Roaring ββββββ"
Without warning, a loud roar was heard from the front. Yang Jiangong and the swordsman behind him instinctively leaned down.
The sound sounded as if hundreds of beasts were roaring in unison, and the sound was like a thunderclap in this cold weather.
Huge sound waves, shaking the snow above the treetops in the woodland, falling at the same time.
"Ah, for Camelot!"
This voice shook a sharp nerve in Yang Jiangong's brain.
Obviously, this is a war cry that belongs to humanity.
"When their battle is over, we'll move forward."
Yang Jiangong made a gesture, and the 100 Radiant Swordsmen lowered their bodies and almost approached.
It seems to be a caravan.
When he saw the first human, besieged by a large group of low-level ogres, his stomach had been crushed.
In the blink of an eye, the ogre pulled the intestines out of his stomach and was torn off by another ogre, just as the stronger ogre rushed up and dispersed the kind of people who were eating the human corpse.
Immediately after, the second human came into Yang Jiangong's eyes.
Judging by the equipment, it was a warrior.
His arm had been torn off, and black blood was pouring from the broken wound.
Subsequently, more and more human corpses appeared.
The lifeless faces that had fallen to the ground were all filled with a haze of despair in their dull pupils......
"Look at the caravan, it looks like a slave trader."
Taking a deep breath, Yang Jiangong couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart at this moment. However, he has no intention of rescuing this group of slave traders for the time being.
"Wait ......." This was the order he had given to the 100 Radiant Swordsmen behind him.
In the perspective, surrounded by ogres, the leader of the slave caravan, who seems to be a knight, is still alive at the moment.
"Get out of here, crumbs!"
The knight slammed his backhand sword into the head of an ogre, and the white brains flew in all directions. The cross sword in his hand weighed two hundred catties, and in the face of the siege of thirty or forty ogres, the armor on his body made a group of ogres feel gnashing their teeth.
"Yikes!"
The long sword in his hand once again left a deep wound on the ogre's body, but there were too many ogres.
His brain was hot, and he only knew how to ride a horse at high speed, looking for a breakthrough.
Until a mace grazed the knight's chest.
The knight slashed an ogre to death with his sword. But it ushered in a warhammer in a certain direction.
Bang β
There was a muffled sound.
The moment he fell off the horse, his body seemed to be lifted high, and then he suffered a heavy fall.
"Is it going to end?"
For the next few seconds, the knight's whole body twitched, and his teeth and teeth collided with each other. He stared blankly at the snowy sky in a daze, not knowing what was going on in his thoughts.
Maybe this time is the most ancient calm without waves.
"Lorkadan!"
Suddenly there was a loud roar from the woodland, and 100 glorious warriors swung their swords and attacked.
After giving the order to attack, Yang Jiangong carried the sword of Maia in his hand, and his running posture flickered, and the rhythm of the two ogre's necks spurting blood behind him was like a pendulum pin on a clock, coordinated accurately.
For nearly a year, there was very little experience of taking risks in person.
Most of the time, Yang Jiangong regarded loneliness as stupid. Human life is only once, and since you are a lord, you should not take risks lightly.
But the truth is that in this world, bravery has always been a heroic quality. Without bravery, people do not have the spirit of adventure and dare not break the rules and habits.
"Loel Cardin !!"
I have never experienced it by the side of the people of Lorkadan, and I never know what kind of power is contained in this battle cry, and the empire that has disappeared in my memory seems to awaken.
Looking at this scene, the ogre's white pupils were generally filled with a look of panic.
Less than two hundred ogres, although numerically superior, after a round of fighting, they no longer had enough physical strength to deal with 100 powerful Radiant Swordsmen.
The battle lasted a total of ten minutes.
When the last ogre on the battlefield fell.
Due to the sword in the face, it almost lost consciousness, several teeth fell into its throat, and while it was difficult to breathe, a large amount of blood foamed out of its mouth.
"Dieβdisgusting thing."
It may be that the teeth and blood are stuck in the throat, when Yang Jiangong ended its last pain with his own hands, the ogre who whimpered and roared in his throat could only lie down with his mouth half open and swallow hard, his body twitched and suddenly stiffened, his mouth full of blood was spurted out, and the two broken fangs were also spit out.
"What's your name?" Hearing Yang Jiangong's question, the weak knight just opened his eyes.
The slave trade was a lucrative industry. At the same time, it is also an industry that must take risks. From the corpse, it can be seen that this knight's caravan is full of civilians from the Kingdom of Carmellot who have been stolen or captured. It seems that there was an unexpected argument during the deal with the ogre. There was no need to save such a person, and after ending the other party's suffering, Yang Jiangong ordered to continue on the road.
According to the pre-agreed plan: Edmund, the Silver Dragon Knight, will lead the army of the Ice Fortress to harass and attack from the front of the Ogre tribe of the Forest of Thorns.
Yang Jiangong took the opportunity to sneak attack the interior of the ogre tribe from another 'small road'. But even if the interior of the ogre tribe is empty, it is not easy for the gods to break into its interior without knowing it.
The road that Yang Jiangong wants to take is - the devouring crypt. And the commander of the Ice Fortress, the Silver Dragon Knight Edmund, obeyed his orders because of the 'obedience' of the former Duke Behringer.
"The Devouring Crypt is located in a hilly hollow near the southern edge of the Thorn Forest, and I remember that it was summer, and the entrance to the cave was covered with green moss, wild penny, and thatch, and on the top of the cave more than five feet high, a large field of green vines hung down to cover the mouth of the cave."
Yang Jiangong heard these descriptions from an old retired soldier.
These adventures in his youth, except for him, and a limited number of people at the time, until recently, no one knows the secret.
As for what happened inside the devouring crypt, Yang Jiangong himself had not personally set foot in it, but he only knew that the other exit from it was the ogre's toilet and the place where bones and food scraps were thrown. Similar to a place where humans keep their livestock.
It's just that after so many years, whether the ogre has transformed his tribe or not, it's not something that ordinary people can know.
In addition to these simple descriptions, Yang Jiangong also knew about a creature that lived in the devouring crypt ,ββ bloodthirsty giant rat. Bloodthirsty giant rats are very territorial, but they are also very cruel and bloodthirsty. The bloodthirsty giant rat also has a violent toxin on its body, and even a little scratch can kill you.
"Rest when you find the entrance to the crypt."
When the snow like cotton wool was under his feet, and the goose feather snow was falling from the sky one after another, in this layer of snow-white intertwined curtains, Yang Jianli led the glorious swordsman across the entire wet woodland.
β¦β¦ Half a day later, when I saw the hills and hollows, many feelings rose in everyone's hearts.
"My king, there is movement in the hollow."
There was a hint in his ear, lying on the ground and crawling forward, his body was covered with snow, and the inside of the cotton armor was probably wet. Yang Jiangong stared at the thirty or so ogres under the recess, and waved his hand silently on the surface. Most of the Radiant Swordsmen's silent bodies straightened up, and their movements spread out to the sides in neat motion, burrowing into the soft snow to camouflage their bodies.
When everything was ready, the few glorious swordsmen with bows and arrows suddenly stood up straight.
"Shoot the arrows!"
With Yang Jiangong's order, the hunters aimed at the ogre under the depression, and the pull of the arm quickly deformed the string, and after letting go, the arrow flew out.
Xiuxiuββββββ
Affected by the low visibility of the fog, only a third of the 20 arrows hit the target.
But because it is condescending, the terrain brings more ferocious penetrating power to the arrowhead. I saw an ogre eating in the hollows of the hills, his forehead pierced, his mouth slightly open, but his eyes flashed with a dull and dead light, staring straight ahead.
The ogre was dressed in unprocessed animal skin, and the unpatterned surface was covered with white fur. And most of the other ogres are dressed up this way. The weapon used is usually a machete or a mace with a gap.
"Roarββββ it's an enemy attack!"
"They were not numerous, and they attacked and drank their blood."
Only five or six ogres fell. The remaining ogres scattered with a roar, and some quickly picked up rough wooden shields in their hands and rushed up the hillside.
As Yang Jiangong expected, from the ogre's reaction, it was obvious that he didn't take a few human archers into account, not to mention that the distance from the depression to the hilly slope was actually not very far.
"Calm downβwait until they get close."
Yang Jiangong gave an order and took out his sword casually. He subconsciously contracted his pupils, mentally calculating the time when the ogre would rush up the snowy slope. In this distance, he saw seven or eight more ogres fall from the arrows, and he shouted, "It's now!" β
Seeing that the ogre is about to catch up. Hearing Yang Jiangong's command, the glorious swordsmen lying on both ends of the snow slope suddenly set off a burst of snow mist at this time, and shouted one after another, "-For Loel Cardin!" β
There was basically no suspense in this skirmish.
Seeing so many humans suddenly popping up on the wings, the ogre rushing up the hillside had a panicked look on his face like a frightened bird.
In short, the ogres of this world are not as difficult to deal with as the giant trolls in the Lord of the Rings, and they are a little smaller than humans.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Having dealt with a team of ogres, Yang Jiangong quickly found the entrance to the crypt that was hidden by snow and tree branches in the limited area of this hilly hollow.
Personally took two warriors and gently touched the mouth.
A strange-looking stone appeared in front of him, slightly smaller at the top and slightly larger at the bottom, and several cubs of bloodthirsty giant rats that had not yet opened their eyes were found on the grass behind the stone.
If you look closely, you can see that the heads of several cubs are very pointed, their snouts are long, and their bodies are only more than 30 centimeters long.
Yang Jiangong also grabbed a handful of soil from the crypt, leaned under his nose and sniffed it, "Okay, take these cubs, let's go out." β
Beyond the Crypt.
"In order to pass through the devouring crypt without attracting the attention of the bloodthirsty giant, the bloodthirsty giant rat must be smeared on its body. Remember not to be nervous and follow orders in all actions. Bloodthirsty rats are not as scary as they look, these beasts are blind, and they can deceive these smelly rat monsters with their smell. β
Wait until the face of every Lol Cardin is smeared with the blood of bloodthirsty giant rats.
Yang Jiangong continued to order, "Okay." We're going to go into the Devouring Crypt. β
About half an hour later.
The dim surroundings were littered with light from outside, and the airways were filled with all kinds of faint and foul smells.
The passage of the devouring crypt is sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, the wide place can accommodate two people side by side, and the narrow place can be passed by one person who has to bend over and crawl sideways.
Yang Jiangong noticed that on both sides of the passage of the devouring crypt, there were many nests of bloodthirsty giant rats and some mysterious and eerie forks.
"When you encounter a fork in the road in the Devouring Crypt, only look for the right way. Don't be alarmed when you encounter a bloodthirsty giant rat, the bloodthirsty giant rat is particularly sensitive to the smell of blood, so as long as it is smeared with the blood of the same kind of giant rat, it is okay to stand still. β
For a while, there were terrible sounds from the depths of the crypt, like the howl of a wild boar, mixed with the sound of knives slashing at flesh and bones shattering.
"Stop!"
With Yang Jiangong's gesture, everyone's movements suddenly stopped as if a knife was cutting the strings of a harp. Until the voice got closer and closer.
"Something is approaching, get down!"
All the swordsmen, including Yang Jiangong, fell to the ground. For the next period of time, everyone held their breath. I tried to find a little more of the sound I had just heard, but I could only hear the sound of my own heartbeat.
This tranquility lasted until Yang Jiangong's patience was about to run out.
Just as he was about to get up.
Hooββββhooββββββ
The breath that stayed in his ear was very moist, and he could feel that the tongue was soft and glutinous, shaking slightly. The other party's round nose drips with brushed mucus. Through the outline of the vision in the dark, Yang Jiangong frowned and shook his head at Leon beside him, stopping him from the urge to draw his sword.
After a long few minutes.
When there was a slight noise in the tunnel, the bloodthirsty giant rat quickly stepped on Yang Jiangong's shoulder and trotted all the way.
An adult bloodthirsty giant rat with a body of more than 1 meter without the length of its tail. Its head follows its shoulders and looks like it has no neck, and its entire skeleton is short and flat. When running, the front feet are large and turned outward, and the powerful claws are like two shovels.
"The danger is lifted."
"Let's move on."
'Close' contact with the bloodthirsty giant rat, there was finally no danger, and after Yang Jiangong's signal, Leon beckoned the glorious swordsman behind him to continue moving forward.
In places where the sun does not shine all year round, it is always the darkest and damp existence. And in this dark tide, there will always be something moldy that is constantly growing.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The olfactory system, so to speak, is the third hand that the bloodthirsty giant rat uses to catch food, and it is an extremely sensitive olfactory organ.
The corpses of a bloodthirsty giant rat and two Lol Cardan were abandoned in the darkest and most damp crypts.
The rest of the road felt extremely depressing, even though it was only two hours, but it was as long as two days.
When we reached the exit, a thin light finally shone in from the other end of the crypt.
However, Yang Jiangong's face was not happy.
"Be careful! βββββ
The swordsman who walked in the front whispered, and immediately used his gestures to tell his comrades behind him.
Several bloodthirsty rats blocked the exit from the crypt, and they seemed to be asleep.
With the help of bright light, people can finally see the faces of several rat monsters.
In addition to its ugly appearance, the most iconic features are its pig-like nose and a few exposed razor-sharp fangs.
"Everyone, be careful, be sure to kill with one blow, and don't make any mistakes."
Leon, the officer of the guard, selected a few of the strongest swordsmen, one deep and one shallow, and approached cautiously.
At this time, Leon's black focused eyes bulged slightly, forming a plane with the eye sockets, and the moment he raised his long sword, his eyes looked a little tough because of his heart's blood.
Suddenly.
Phewββββ
A bloodthirsty giant rat suddenly woke up, stretched out its nose and inhaled. As if smelling an unknown danger approaching.
Leon's sword stabbing down was thus frozen in mid-air. Fortunately, the bloodthirsty giant rat's eyes were sunken deep under the skin, and his vision was completely degraded to nothing, which made Leon breathe a sigh of relief.
Calm and highly nervous, the tip of the sword in the hands of Leon and several glorious swordsmen quietly aimed at the throat or heart of the bloodthirsty giant rat.
"Killβ"
The command sounded, and the sword quickly fell.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Arrived safely at the other end of the devouring crypt.
The scene in front of him is basically the same as what he described.
The only discrepancy, that is, the disgusting smell of this swamp, was completely beyond Yang Jiangong's imagination.
"This Nima is simply a poisonous swamp."
It was a foul, muddy stagnant water, and the wind could not blow a ripple on it.
Most of the ogre's 'leftovers' are human and animal internal organs, and most of them are bones. Over the years, it was enough to make the stagnant water almost fermented into 'green wine', and it was full of maggot-like white foam. Those disgusting red fat worms that resembled earthworms were enough for Yang Jiangong to be glad that he had not suffered from any dense phobia.
"Go down!"
At the sound of an order, one by one, the Radiant Swordsmen quietly fell into this disgusting pile of 'paste'.
If this stinking pile of paste could be called a gutter. With each step they took, their legs laboriously cut through the slime that wrapped around their thighs like scissors. At this moment, from the neck down, Yang Jiangong's nose was full of a foul and pungent smell, "Damn, there is nothing more disgusting in this world." β
The green paste was a mixture of minced meat, dead branches, bones, and dung, a ditch of green stagnant water, and this was not a place to stay for long.
"We need to 'swim' through this 'water' as soon as possible." In order not to affect morale, Yang Jiangong's complaints were all in his stomach.
Alerted to the absence of ogres nearby, everyone quickened their trek and strode under their feet, until they turned a 90-degree visual blind spot, and everyone's eyes suddenly opened up and a different scene appeared.
At the end of this backwater, up the rough stone steps, quickly flashed into a hole in the mountain wall.
However, inside this hole, there are all kinds of animals carved. There are giants, dragons, strange birds, etc. Although ogres have different aesthetics from humans, these carvings have allowed Yang Jiangong to fundamentally change some preconceived and wrong concepts. He had always believed in the past that ogres were stupid, inferior monsters.
"The ogre tribe is highly hierarchical, and it is said that the highest ogres never lack the cultivation and elegance of human nobles. I don't know if this rumor is true. β
Be curious about anything you see in this world, and continue deep into the passages sandwiched between the half-holes. In fact, the tunnel was not as long as he imagined, only less than 30 meters. You can easily see through to the exit at a glance.
As soon as he arrived at the other end of the tunnel, Yang Jiangong's ears heard a flickering sound, which was floating from a certain direction. These sounds are in the ears for a while, disappear for a while, clear and shocking for a while, and a miserable howl for a while.
"My king, that's the direction of the entrance to the Thorn Forest."
Yang Jiangong looked in the direction where the voice came from, but his line of sight was separated by a hazy snowflake curtain. "So the Silver Dragon Knight has already fought the ogre, it's time for us to go!"
According to Yang Jiangong's conservative estimate, the ogre tribe should also have no less than tens of thousands of combat soldiers. At one time, it threatened the entire northern border of the Kingdom of Carmellot.
But no one would have imagined that such a dramatic reversal would occur today. At this moment, the interior of the Bone Crushing Ogre Tribe was empty like never before.
"Hear me clearly, our goal is to find the Crystal Ball of Radiant Knowledge. As for what this ball looks like, please imagine for yourself. My command is, take the ball when you see it. β
Hearing Yang Jiangong's order to attack clearly, the arms of each Brilliant Swordsman holding the sword bulged out one after another, and everyone's eyes were filled with determination and courage.
Judging by the signs covered in stone, most of the buildings above the third floor were used for the most part of the castle's residence, perhaps for the sake of sacrifice.
Around the five kingdoms of mankind, there are a total of 9 ogre tribes scattered around. The ogre tribe that threatens the northern border of the Kingdom of Carmellot, calling itself the 'Broken Bone Tribe', is relatively weak.
And the building decorated with a large number of bones is so conspicuous in Yang Jiangong's eyes, like a bed bug on a bald head, it is not difficult to find.
"There it is!"
Yang Jiangong pointed out the direction.
Although 100 Radiant Swordsmen would need to cross several tribal areas in the Twists and Turns to get there.
"Woo woo
The sound of the military horn coming from the entrance to the Forest of Thorns gradually became more and more deafening and reverberating from the original sound that was sometimes vague and sometimes clear.
In Yang Jiangong's heart, it was as if there was a wall clock, ticking and playing a light and rhythmic tune, parallel to his thoughts. At this time, each Radiant Swordsman's footsteps were very light, and he walked cautiously, but his speed was extremely fast.
Suddenly.
An ogre who had almost crashed into the arms of the swordsman of Lorkadin jumped backwards like a frightened bird, and his body was electrocuted.
"Human!? βββββββ
To say that in the center of the tribe encountered humans. This unexpected scene made many ogres seem a little panicked.
On the other hand, Yang Jiangong's smile was very cold.
"Scumbags, the ogre tribe has been conquered, and the monsters who don't share the sky with humans, today is your end!" Yang Jiangong's 'shock' fell on the ears of the Radiant Swordsman, as if he had given an order to fight.
"Loel Cardin ββββ"
The long sword groaned in the wind and snow, and at the same time, the sword was drawn, and 100 glorious swordsmen formed a three-column sword formation, and collided with the ogre.
A bunch of low-level ogres with poor strength can hardly stop the elite Radiant Swordsmen.
Striding all the way through, killing these ogres in front of them to the point of flesh and blood, each glorious swordsman had a cruel smile in the corner of his eyes, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were like swallowtails splitting into three prongs.
A few minutes later.
Leave a severed limb in place.
"Hurry, hurry. The longer it is delayed, the worse it will be for us. β
This is the ogre tribe, and there are as many old and weak women and children as there are ogres.
Yang Jiangong's order was to grab the crystal ball and leave.
Whew-Whewββββ
Running long distances, each Radiant Swordsman has rhythmically controlled his breathing.
The Broken Bone Ogre Tribe, the leader's residence.
In front of Yang Jiangong's eyes, it is not so much that this is a monster's lair. It is more appropriate to say that it is the center of a lord's daily life.
The leader of the ogre tribe with broken bones, what kind of 'person' he or she is, Yang Jiangong does not know. But the fact that a high-ranking ogre can permanently transform into a human through some kind of sacrifice can finally be verified with his own eyes.
In this hall, any chair is made into a strange curve that fits the anatomy of the human body, the back of the chair spreads out like a butterfly, like a human rib, and the legs of the chair are like bones.
The ceiling and walls of the house are depicted with animals, and although they may have been seen, the carvings are more elaborate than those seen before, and the patterns of flowers and plants abound.
"My king, there is a discovery, we have found a dark room!"
Time was pressing, and under Leon's guidance, I saw a small door behind a curtain.
The kowtow on it turned out to be two human skulls, and when Yang Jiangong touched this thing with a polished back when he opened the door with his own hands, he felt a strangeness in his heart.
"Whatever is behind the door, rush in and kill them!"
With a command, the door slowly opened, and it was a simple stone chamber that glowed with a silver glow.
In the first place, the Radiant Swordsman split an old wizard-like ogre into several bloody pieces.
On the upper right side of the corpse, there is a natural basin-shaped stone vessel, and clear spring water gushes and bubbles in it.
A white crystal ball sits above the spring.
Crystal Ball of Radiant Knowledge?
A crystal ball as smooth as glass, emitting a milky white glow outward. The inside is like a cloud coating.
This should be what you're looking for.
Yang Jiangong wrapped the crystal ball directly with a piece of black cloth.
Before hurrying away, he took one last look at the residence of the leader of the Broken Bone Tribe. With this strong smell of perfume, Yang Jiangong guessed that this ogre leader was most likely a female.
The whole process of retreat that followed was not as smooth as it had been.
"Despicable thieves, greedy humans, if you want to leave the Broken Bone Tribe, you must first ask my Bone Chewing Cromy's permission."
A hideous smile, a smile that is not human, burst out on the face of a tall, middle-aged man. He was tall, but very thin, with narrow shoulders. Long arms, long legs, two hands swinging around the knees, and holding two giant machetes in their hands.
It was this 'middle-aged man' who led the dense ogres and blocked the path of the Lol Cardans.
Although he has a human-like appearance, that white pupil is enough to explain his identity.
High ogre.
Permanently has a human-like appearance, rather than performing some kind of transfiguration.
According to Yang Jiangong's knowledge: Ogre is a ferocious monster, and only ordinary low-level ogres need to rely on devouring human brains to become the appearance of the dead in a short period of time.
"Lay down your arms, human."
Cromi the Bonechewer's eyes lit up.
"Huh-"
Yang Jiangong sneered, "Don't talk nonsense!" β
With faith in his heart, Yang Jiangong's tough tone gave the ogre on the opposite side some strange illusion for a moment. His eyes seemed to be sinking, and they were sinking deeply, as if they were about to sink.
However, before it completely disappeared, it suddenly shone with a fierce tenacious brilliance, as if it were two sparks that would never die.
"Forward!" β
Each Radiant Swordsman habitually shook out the movement of a sword flower, and his posture was uniform. Then he suddenly kicked his left leg on the ground, raised the cross sword in his hand and rushed forward.
This kind of hard collision is either you die or I die with all your strength, and in an instant, the scene becomes a sword light.
A single swordsman may not be powerful, but attacking in line can make it almost impossible for an outnumbered ogre.
A single look at the face made dozens of ogre soldiers wearing rough leather armor die in an instant. At this moment, most of the first-order ogres are not in the tribe. As a result, the inferior ogres who stood in front of the Radiant Swordsman were all cannon fodder, except for the high-ranking ogre Bone Chewer Chromie.
The bone-chewer's sharp gaze was fixed on the hand of the Radiant Swordsman. The next time he swung two machetes, he not only cut the two Lol Cardin warriors in the middle, but when his power was fully exploded, every glorious swordsman who fought him would be shattered by a sword.
From such strength and the weight of the weapon, it is not difficult for Yang Jiangong to judge that the other party is a knight.
The third-order offensive class means that the two machetes in the hands of Cromi the Bone Chewer weigh a total of three hundred pounds.
"Bow and arrow!"
Yang Jiangong ordered the Radiant Swordsmen to use bows and arrows to reduce the number of ogres.
And the constant attacks of arrows all around his body forced the battle space and battle rhythm of Chewy Cromi to be oppressed.
As more and more inferior ogres died, many of them fled. Suppressed by dozens of glorious swordsmen, the anger brought by this sense of grievance caused the bone chewer to let out a roar like thunder.
"Roarβββ I'm going to tear you apart."
