Chapter 272: Negrim of the Counterattack (Fifteen)
Tomorrow is the National Day! I wish you all a happy seven days of National Day! By the way, I asked myself for a leave, I haven't been with my wife and son for a long time, so the update will be a little unstable during the National Day, I hope you will forgive me! โโ
Happy National Day -
The elves did not hear the roar of Jamelis, but in the end they still followed the demon troops, because they found that the number of demon heads in the war was indeed enough, but the problem was that the quality was not enough. Because not all the demons that are slain are very strong, because the demons are very widely distributed, and most importantly, they react too quickly.
In order not to be besieged by these demons, they just quickly evacuated, and after returning to run frantically for a long distance, the elves slowly stopped and counted their gains. There is no doubt that the number of demon heads they have won is not a lot, but there are only about fifty demon heads that can be used for communication, and the remaining demon heads are too poor in strength after inspection and are discarded by the elves.
This meant that they would have to take another risk, maybe even a few more times, and there was no doubt that the next action would be even more dangerous, because the demons who had been attacked once would never fall in the same place twice. They will definitely be vigilant when they find themselves changing from hunters to prey, so it is difficult to strike these demons again, let alone directly kill dozens of powerful demons to obtain heads.
While Canamos was thinking about how to attack the demon again, Jame Pheus roared angrily at the demon he had brought out. Of course, her roar seemed to the demons to be more of a show, but in fact, if it weren't for the fear of Sagremar, perhaps the demons were more likely to have pinned Amefate to the ground with the sperm in their brains. Of course, the ending must be that Canamus and other elves will be able to pick up some demon heads on the ground for free, and they will definitely be the kind that have been drained of essence.
So these demons were very obedient and listened to the roar of Amephaus, and of course these demons listened to the roar of Ameface and looked around vigilantly. After all, they had just been attacked by the elves, and they didn't want to be attacked by the elves again.
With Jamephos in a hurry, this demon force began to slowly move towards the location of the demon army, looking at the lack of demons and the puffing of Jamephas, if Negrim didn't know what was going on, then he would be too stupid. But even if the other party suffered heavy losses, he would not run to show off or complain in front of Jamephas. Because that doesn't make sense.
Watching the succubus disappear into Sagrimmar's demonic forces, Negrim withdrew his gaze and looked out into the snow-covered forest. There was no doubt that the elves were still somewhere in the forest, but Negrim had no idea of connecting with them. After all, the relationship between them is very complicated now, and there is no doubt that Negrim can no longer be said to be a demon elf, and his bloodline has completely and completely transformed into a demon. In fact, Negrim found that during that time in the abyss, many demon elves began to gradually transform into real demons, and there were signs of this before his transformation, and these elves were all very talented elves without exception. Of course, these demons have now been taken away by Aylas, because Negrim thinks that they may become the hope of the entire demon elf race, and those of them who will eventually collide with the ancients or even die should not fill in the demon elves with talents.
Looking in the direction of Teramis, Negrim stood silently in the treetops. At the same time, the sleigh cars pulled by the reindeer were moving quickly in the ice and snow, but Chen Kai didn't know that he had shifted his direction a little. Because the forest in the snow and ice has undergone several changes. Even if Chen Kai and the others had a map, they began to become a little unaware of this forest.
But despite this, they kept moving forward, resting only a few hours a day during this time. The thick snow makes the forest look much smoother, but such an environment is not necessarily completely safe, and in the past few days, Chen Kai and his team have encountered at least three or four rollover accidents, and then the reindeer pulling the car collided and killed seven or eight of them. Of course, in line with the principle of waste utilization, Chen Kai and the others turned the dead reindeer into food, and the broken sleigh was repaired by the dwarves in only a few hours. In order to prevent another car accident, Chen Kai and his team reduced the number of reindeer pulling the cart, but even then the speed of the sled was much faster than that of the snowboard.
The ability of a running reindeer to move in the snow is by no means comparable to that of a group of people holding a sleigh with both hands, even if they take turns resting on the sleigh. The laden bobsleigh also moves quite fast. It's just that the wooden sled is not very strong, and it can be damaged or even disintegrated if it is hit. Although the dwarves tried to improve the sturdiness of the sled, the wooden products would be damaged in an instant by a gentle collision during high-speed movements, even if they were connected by iron nails. The most important thing is that these reindeer are not professional sled reindeer, so in the beginning, several times the sleigh was thrown directly into the trees on the side when the reindeer turned, and then crumbled into slag.
Thankfully, no one drove the sled in the initial trial. Otherwise, the result would definitely be a car crash and death, and even a sanctuary-level elf like Romans would be injured in the impact. Of course, this is in a defenseless situation, and if there is defense, then even the weakest man can avoid the damage caused by the carriage hitting the trees. But it is certainly impossible to be vigilant and attentive for long periods of time when driving a sled, so a sled driver is definitely a very poor job.
But after a few days, Chen Kai and the others finally mastered these reindeer completely. Although they were still unable to communicate with natural spells, they obediently obeyed the coachman's words despite the threat of carrots and sticks. The most important thing is that these reindeer, under the education of the leather whip, finally understand the fact that when turning, they need to reduce their speed a little, and at the same time turn at a large angle, of course, another thing to keep in mind. That is, when you encounter a slope, it is better not to jump over it, because the sled cannot fly over.
With the help of the speed of the sled, Chen Kai and they had traveled at least hundreds of kilometers in a few days, but they still had a long way to go before they could reach Teramis. The most important thing is that the elves have never found any traces left by the Natural Punishment Squad, and it is not known whether they were hidden by the snow or disappeared with the collapse of the trees.
In such a situation, the elves can only rely on the map provided by Chen Kai and them, and then bet that those members of the Punishment of Nature are really in Teramis, as for the capture of the necromancer who caused the tragedy of Lorraine Illit, it is really difficult at present, even Romans is a little desperate for this task. The changes in the forest caught him off guard, and he didn't even know if he would be able to return to the Elven Empire with his elven knights. Looking at the snow-covered forest, Romans struggled the ski pole he held in his palm.
Dressed in a snow-white wolfskin coat, Romans was still wearing his exquisite elven armor under the wolfskin coat, with some wolf skin lining in the sturdy armor, otherwise the wolfskin coat alone would not be able to block the cold wind. Although with his strength, he can simply ignore this change in the environment. But as an elf living in a warm world, instinctively I still want to dress warmer.
In fact, not only Romans, all the elves are dressed like this, in Chen Kai's opinion, these elf knights can already be replaced with a new name, such as snow wolf knight or something. However, his complaints will not be accepted by those elves, because the snow wolf knight is human, but it is the cavalry of the orc clan, and it is also the most elite cavalry of the rare snow werewolf clan.
There's no doubt that this kind of outfit is very protective in the snow and ice environment, but there are no pesky winter wolves or terrible earth bears around at the moment, so they don't have to worry about being attacked. It's just that they don't know where the Winter Wolf and the Earth Bear have gone, and the news that everyone wants most is that the Winter Wolf and the Earth Bear who were under the control of the ancient mage ran to fight with the damn necromancer. If that's the case, maybe they'll be able to follow the wolves to find the damn necromancer, and then take advantage of the attack when they're attacked by the ancient mage's pets, and finally happily complete the mission.
It's a pity that they don't know where those winter wolves have gone, although there are elves in the team who are good at tracking traces, even Zhou Xuan and Fei Yun are very good at this, but the problem is that they are in the ice and snow. Although the forest has not snowed again. However, the snow particles that are often blown by the cold wind will still cover up all the traces. No matter how fast Chen Kai and the others ran, after being out of touch with the wolves for a long time, they completely lost the possibility of finding the wolves.
Chen Kai, who was moving in the Ice and Snow Forest, didn't know about the existence of the demon, because they couldn't get information and couldn't feel the terrifying spatial fluctuations when the demon's gate was opened. Although the strength of a few natural mages in the team is good, it is only good, and it is difficult for mages who have not reached the rank of archmage to come into contact with space spells, let alone study space spells. At the same time, if you can't master the space spell, it is simply a fantasy to perceive the spatial fluctuations one or two thousand kilometers away. Because the distance between the two sides is too far, so far that the spatial fluctuations have been completely reduced by the main material plane, and the special situation of the Denzel Forest has weakened the spatial fluctuations even more. Although the cursed barrier formed by the power of the goddess of nature and the demon lord Disgama is gone, the remaining power still affects the space throughout the Denzel Forest.
If it weren't for that, the hapless necromancer wouldn't have teleported himself to Terramis with a random teleportation. With the top-notch items possessed by a spellcaster of his level, even random teleportation would be enough to send him to a safer place. Although Terramis is not very dangerous, it is definitely not a safe place, but the spatial chaos in the Denzel Forest, especially the ancient mages in order to send the Black Tower back to the main material plane, has disturbed the space of the Denzel Forest in disguise, which has exacerbated this spatial change. So the sad necromancer His Excellency Keno was unfortunately hit. Directly sent himself to the ancient mage's eyelids.
Of course, this spatial disturbance also made it impossible for the forces outside the Denzel Forest to discover the opening of the Demon Gate in the forest, because they could not tell whether the changes in this space were caused by the ancient mages or the opening of the Demon Gate. Only the Elder Mages themselves could have enough information in the ever-changing spatial flow to discover the Demon's Gate in the first place, but that was when Negrim returned from the Demon World, not when he opened the Demon's Gate to the Demon World.
If Chen Kai knew the news of the demon's arrival. Then he will definitely be more careful, no matter how cold the wind in the sky is, it will let Fei Yun observe more in the air and then determine the direction, instead of only observing once a day like now. In such a situation, when they realize that they are out of direction, it is too late to turn around. Of course, Chen Kai and they haven't found this situation yet. After all, they were still a long way from Teramis, and they weren't very biased. When they approached Teramis, they found that they had run from the west to the south of Teramis, but at this time they could only continue to move north.
Basically, every time Chen Kai rests, they will choose to find a place with dense trees. Although such a place is a narrow area, it is a bit crowded when hundreds of people gather together. But such a place was safe, and without the protection of the camp, the trees became the only barrier they used to keep the enemy from attacking. It's just that they don't know what other enemies in the forest will attack them, and those winter wolves don't know where to run at all, and the only thing left in the forest in the snow is the sound of the wind gnawing on the leaves of the surrounding reindeer.
On the cleared ground in the center, Chen Kai and the others lit a bonfire, and the temperature brought by the red flames caused the surrounding ice and snow to gradually melt and dissipate into white mist. The temperature of the scorched meat was very high, but with the hot soup, Chen Kai and they still ate very happily, after all, they only rest for a few hours a day, and such a hot meal is very precious to them. If it weren't for the fact that everyone was basically a veteran adventurer who had been in the game for a long time, it would be really difficult for them to adapt to such a diet, although many of the high-level adventurers often went to the wild for adventures, but there were really few people who were so hard with Chen Kai.
For the players, they will be prepared with sufficient provisions, and most players will definitely not spend more than a month in the wild, but Chen Kai and they have been in this forest for quite a long time. If they had been stockpiled according to the supplies of the past, they would have basically started to gnaw on tree bark and grass roots now. Fortunately, they already had the idea of being wild people in the forest, so the things they prepared were very sufficient, even more abundant than the elves, relatively speaking, if there were no supplies that Bartley asked Chen Kai to bring, the only choice for the elves now was to withdraw from the Denzel timber wolf Bรจi and flee to the forest to find the elf village to ask for supplies.
In fact, for the elves, if they didn't have reindeer meat and winter wolf meat, they would even have to use the last material reserves, and they might have to borrow some from Chen Kai and them before they could leave the forest. This would have been a humiliating shame for Romans, but thankfully it didn't happen. The people who took them to rest in the forest did not forget to be vigilant, although most people thought that this was not necessary, but no one was sure that there was really no danger in the forest, so the guard post was still set up.
Looking at the white snow, Chen Kai quickly poured the hot soup into his mouth, and while he was eating, Negrim jumped down from the treetops. Because I didn't think about the supply of supplies. And for the demons, there is no such thing as preparing supplies at all, and the first thought they want is to grab it. As a group of professional bandits and interdimensional bandits, the demons are very good at robbing, but unfortunately they have nothing to grab now, so they can only starve.
Negrim had some things to eat, but he didn't have much food in his hands. So he can only starve. Fortunately, the demons have a strong ability to endure hunger, even if they don't have anything to eat for ten days and half a month, there is no problem, and even in extreme cases, they can isolate themselves for hundreds of years without eating or drinking, just like the demon army of Disgama at the beginning. But this was not the case with Negrim, who hoped that the demons would be able to rush directly to Terramis in a matter of days. Then use overwhelming attacks to rush directly into the tower of the ancient mage, and finally rescue the demon queen. That's all Negrim's plan, very crude, very direct, very violent, no conspiracy at all, because he knows that for the ancient mages, all the intrigues are useless.
As Negrim leaped down from the treetops, Ganamos was looking out at the demon's location from a treetop in the distance. He has decided to launch another attack on the demons. Only this time, only a limited number of elves participated, and the other elves stayed far away to take charge. This is the only way to ensure that the losses are minimized, because they simply cannot afford to lose anyone.
There is no doubt that Canamos himself will definitely participate, but Mavi was left by him to answer on the periphery, although Mavi's combat power is stronger than other elves, but Canamos does not want this elven girl with red eyes to be in danger. After all, once he falls into the encirclement of demons, he can't take care of everyone, and naturally he can't take care of this elf girl.
"Mavi! Stay here obediently! Pressing the elven girl's head like a sympathetic person, Canamos had a gentle smile on her face. Although this smile was only a flash, the other elves saw it, but they all chose to ignore it, because they all knew the relationship between Ganamos and Mavi, the elven girl.
"No!" This was the elven girl's stubborn answer, she wanted to follow behind Ganamos, this was the place she had always stayed, and she had never left this position even if it was dangerous. For the elven girl, behind Canamos was her private domain, and she did not allow anyone else to enter it. (To be continued......)
