Chapter 363: Please fight, trio, unwilling Bo Kesi
The so-called "opening of the eyes" refers to whether the second new head of the two-headed female head opens the eyes. And once you open your eyes, it means that your level must be level eleven or above, and you belong to the upper realm of the higher ranks. At this time, the spell-like ability of the two-headed female patriarch will also further increase, and she almost has the strength to fight against the middle-level legal profession. And considering that Qiu Luobu himself was only an eleventh level Torch Prophet, and he was not outstanding in combat talent spells, he finally paid attention to this warning signal.
"Did the Tartar say where the cave ogres went?" After a pause, the old minotaur asked again.
"It seems to have returned to a remote cave, almost fifty kilometers from here. It was a cave hunter named Pocos who secretly followed and came back to report it. ”
"It's only fifty kilometers!? It's too close..."
Hearing this, Jolob shook his head sternly.
Obviously, this group of cave ogres should be Nofan who has only been wandering here for a short time. In fact, the geological structure of the underground world is so complex that there are almost no impassable moats. It may have been a dead end of a rock wall a few days ago, but it may not be long before it becomes a new channel complex with extensive development due to stratigraphic changes. Therefore, the control of the "Furnace Hill" by the Minotaur has always been limited to the small plain area, and the complex tunnel areas outside are beyond the reach of the whip, and it is actually impossible to effectively control them. And even if it is a larger-scale dungeon, it can only cover the surface with points in terms of controlling the territory, and it must not be exhaustive.
"We can't keep this ogre, or we'll go to Dark Neon once most of us. The tribe is empty here. If the two-headed matriarch and the other ogres attacked in a big way, the old and weak who stayed behind would probably not be able to resist it. ”
As if talking to himself, as if to explain to Moriarty, Jolob said in a deep voice. In order to eliminate this new group of ogres, it is undoubtedly necessary to use the main force of the Minotaur tribe, and the time to go to the "Dark Neon" has to be postponed again.
"My lord, why don't you let me take someone to kill these cave ogres."
D'Artagnan didn't think as far as the old Minotaur thought as far as he wanted, only to hear that a strong enemy appeared, and he had newly acquired totemic armor and alchemical battle axes, so he was naturally eager to show his skills.
"You can go. It's just..."
Looking at the young minotaur who took the initiative to ask for help. Jolob nodded, promising the other party's positive fighting spirit. Moreover, d'Artagnan's new equipment requires a familiar and proficient process, and it is appropriate to practice with ogres to test their martial arts. Of course. A single minotaur must not be able to deal with a cave ogre house led by a two-headed matriarch. So it's also going to think about the other strikers.
"Lord Jolob. It's up to me and d'Artagnan to deal with these ogres. How about you continue to prepare for your journey to the dungeon? And just then, Moriarty suddenly interjected.
"Master. Are you going to make a move? ”
Hearing the words of the human mage, the Torch Prophet was stunned for a moment, and then overjoyed. It already knew what the strength of the other party was, and the mid-level magic class plus the alchemist's magic puppet team was already similar to the strength of a high-level professional. In particular, Moriarty, as a standard human magician, has a rich knowledge and outstanding spell ability, and is the best candidate to restrain the two-headed female patriarch.
However, why the other party offered to help exterminate this group of ogres is beyond the ordinary obligation of a "guest" and "good friend".
"That's right, the heart and head of the two-headed matriarch are quite good alchemical materials. So I hope to be able to get it. ”
Seeing the other party's doubts, Moriarty said directly. However, there is one thing he doesn't explain, that is, although his "private work" is almost completed, if the blood of the cave ogre is used as a lubricant, he can obtain a better maneuver effect.
"I see."
Hearing such an explanation, Jolob was able to accept it with peace of mind. Although the body tissues of various living beings are used as alchemy materials, they are actually disgusted by people. For example, the horns of the Minotaur are also a pretty good base material for enchantments, and are loved by some alchemists. But the Torch Prophet also only asked someone to help with the enchantment, so naturally he made irresponsible remarks about this qualification. Anyway, as long as they didn't find the materials to find the head of the Minotaur, the old minotaur decided to turn a blind eye.
"Master, I can't thank you enough for agreeing to help. It's just that you and d'Artagnan are going to strangle those ogres, whether the men are too thin, or maybe I will have some people with you. Accepting Moriarty's offer to fight, Jolob was ready to add some more strength to ensure that the battle was decided.
"No need." In this regard, Moriarty shook his head with a smile: "It's just a few ogres, it's not a big deal." ”
"But the two-headed matriarch?" Seeing that the human mage was full of confidence and refused to bring more warriors, the old minotaur was a little worried.
"It's okay, I'm sure."
Moriarty still declined the Torch Prophet's kindness. It's not that he doesn't want to be addicted to the commander of the Minotaur, after all, he can command the powerful and xenophobic Minotaur in battle, which is rarely the opportunity to experience. It's just that there are too many secrets in Moriarty's body, and some of his strength should not be shown to the public. And if you only bring one d'Artagnan, it will be much more convenient.
"Since the master is so persistent, I will not repeat it, and I am here to wait for the good news of your victorious return."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade the other party, Jolob finally agreed to let Moriarty and d'Artagnan go together to clear the cave ogre.
With little to prepare, Moriarty and the young Minotaur left the Forge Hill and descended to the bottom of the mountain. It seems that the message has been received, and the Tartar and Pokoth are already waiting there. As soon as they saw the human mage and the minotaur warrior coming down, the two cavemen immediately greeted them.
"Elder Tartar, how's the situation with the tribe? What about the injured? Unlike the Minotaurs' indifference and disregard, Moriarty's first words at the sight of the troglodyte leader almost moved him to tears.
"It's okay... Some of the clansmen died, and more than a dozen of them were also captured, and they couldn't even survive. Looking at the human mage with a concerned face, Tartar nodded lightly, choking a little. As it says, there is little chance that the living creatures captured by the ogres will survive. Because the hostages are taken by others to extort money, and the ogre kidnappers are purely the flesh of the hostages.
"Here are a few healing potions, you can heal the wounded in the tribe. As for the captured people, d'Artagnan and I will go after the cave ogres, but if there is any hope, we will do our best to bring them back. ”
As he spoke, Moriarty took out three primary healing potions and handed them to the caveman. The other party held a fleaming and beautiful glittering potion test tube, and couldn't help it anymore, and let out a sad voice. Seeing this scene, even d'Artagnan, who had always despised the caveman, couldn't help but praise Moriarty's righteousness and thoughtfulness in his heart, and admired the human mage even more.
"Alright, let's go now. Pocoth, you've tracked down the cave ogres, and you're up to you to lead the way. Calming the old and useless Tartar Tower, Moriarty looked at the cave hunter beside him.
"Yes, Master!"
Pocos was also moved to tears, for he had never seen anyone of other tribes in his memory care so much about the life and suffering of the cave people, rather than seeing them as mere livestock for the production of food. In this regard, Bo Kesi couldn't help but have the idea of being willing to die for the human mage in front of him.
Then, guided by the cave hunters, Moriarty and d'Artagnan made their way to the remote tunnels where the cave ogres were inhabited.
Along the way, Moriarty asks Pocos about the ogre in detail.
It turned out that just yesterday, five male ogres, led by a two-headed matriarch, took advantage of the gap between the cavemen to rest and relax, and killed more than 20 cavemen in a row, and destroyed many farmhouses. Eventually, the ogres left the plain with the corpses of the slain cavemen and a dozen other wounded creatures, as if they had finished hunting.
In the attack, the Tartar only appeared at the earliest moment, and when he saw the female ogre appearing, he immediately hid and didn't know where to go, allowing the people of the village to be killed by the other party at will. Pocos fought a male ogre for a while, and finally stabbed the guy in the ankle in exchange for injuries before finally retreating. It was with the help of this slow-moving ogre, who was injured in the leg, that Pocos was able to track down the enemy's temporary lair.
Listening to the cave hunter's detailed statement, as well as his extreme hatred for the cave ogre and his strong resentment of the Tartar Elder's cowering and fear of the enemy, Moriarty also sighed secretly. But such things are too common in the underworld, and if it weren't for the cave ogre and the two-headed matriarch, he and the minotaur probably wouldn't have come out to take over the matter. But what surprised Moriarty was Pocos's attitude. Because in Nigon, even many troglodytes themselves have long accepted their fate as if this is the way of life that troglodytes should have, without dignity, without hope, without a future, some just honestly farm and pay for food, and then one day they will be wantonly killed by demonic beasts or strong men of other races, and die in vain.
However, although the strength of Bo Kesi in front of him is only ordinary, he has an unwilling heart, even if he himself may not realize the truest thoughts in his heart.
In this regard, Moriarty can be said to be approving, can be said to be recognized, or can be said to sigh. (To be continued......)
