Chapter 251: Little Monster
All three men had horses, and soon arrived at their destination, reporting to Lord Hoffman, the lord of Red Ridge Mountain, that they had been paid 10 silver coins each, and of course, Egger and the others had gained a small amount of additional experience.
Hoffman doesn't have much feeling about the three of this so-called Warcraft mercenary group, and the recent large-scale gathering of mercenaries in Red Ridge Mountain is also a helpless move, and the elite army of Stormwind City has been delayed, and the war here is tight, and he has to accept the construction of those damn nobles and recruit voluntary mercenaries, which is like cutting meat for a lord. Even if those hateful nobles are willing to pay a gold coin for it, Hoffman himself is still fighting with his old bottom, but if he doesn't fight, he can't let those damn blackstone orcs disrupt the normal order of Lakeside Town, right? Then he would have no place to stand.
More like a merchant than a warrior, Lord Hoffman knew his value in the nobility, and without the support of Lakeside Mining, he would be nothing. Knowing this, he had to cut his flesh with a blunt knife and take out his early savings to subsidize it...... These are vampire-like mercenaries, whom the lord loves and hates.
Egger and they naturally didn't know Hoffman's mental activities, and intuitively this guy didn't like them, and in turn, they didn't like this warrior who had no warrior bones, after all, they would have to mix with him in the future, so everyone didn't talk too much, and they soon went to hand in another task.
The batch of things transported from the blacksmith shop in Shining Gold Town was approved by the blacksmith shop in Lakeside Town without any suspense, and the two of them should have signed an agreement. As long as there are no particularly serious problems, it is generally acceptable, and the blacksmith manager of Lakeside Town quickly arranged for someone to complete the acceptance, sign the receipt, and issue the task reward. After all, it was just a small delivery task, and they received a total of one gold in commission income, and similarly, they also gained some additional experience points.
Tip: Congratulations on completing the "Transporting Equipment Mission" and rewarding you with a one-star neutral base card "Elven Archer", which has been added to the Book of Hearthstone, please check it out for yourself.
Ay. After all, this task has a low difficulty level. The reward is only a one-star card, and after he opens the three-star card, it can only be said that it is better than nothing.
Elven archer, one-star basic follower. The size of a 1-1 is only equivalent to that of an elf. The stunt is a war cry. Deal 1-star damage to any target.
It should be said that this retinue attribute is not good, but the battle cry is still quite powerful, and the one-star damage of the war cry is equivalent to an instantaneous spell. It will work wonders against enemy mending knives. In fact, in Hearthstone, this minion works wonders in some class decks, most notably the Warrior's Rage Stream.
Amani Berserker, Enraged Werewolf, Cubash Berserker, and Armor Forger and Berserker in the Warrior class card, if they are injured, they will produce a rage effect or increase the armor effect of the followers, and it is very necessary to take some minor injuries. However, the warrior's special skill is to add 2 points of armor to himself, and he does not have a flexible fire charge like the master, and the elven archer has become a good means of supplementing anger, and her battle cry effect is essentially exactly the same as the master's special fire impact, which is very flexible, and can not only hit the enemy, but also hit his own people.
For example, there is an angry werewolf on the field, and then the elf archer will not shoot others, just shoot the werewolf, which can increase the angry werewolf by a little attack power and obtain the effect of two attacks of wind rage, and you can kill the opponent at once 8 points of blood, which is very powerful, and has the same cooperation as other angry flow followers, so I won't repeat it here, anyway, it's a thin but flexible guy.
……
In the evening, Egger and his entourage stayed in a hotel in Lakeside Town, the innkeeper was very beautiful, dressed very decently, and had a very temperament. With two more beautiful girlfriends by his side, Master Ai naturally won't ask for trouble, even if he wants two rooms, he will live in it, and he will talk about the task later, and he has been tired of hurrying. When they washed away the dust and had dinner together, they heard several loud beast roars......
Pig snort? The three of them looked at each other, it was very loud, but how it sounded like a pig humming, and looking at the surrounding formation, it seemed that everyone was accustomed to it, which was very strange.
Egger beckoned, and the proprietress was also very appreciative, and came over to greet her gracefully: "What do the three adults command?" ”
Iger nodded outside: "What's the sound outside?" It's so infiltrating, and no one cares about it? ”
The beautiful proprietress simply pulled a chair and sat down: "Your new arrival in Lakeside Town may not know, there will be such a sound here every day, it is said that there is a very powerful monster, always rushing down from the ridge after dark to make trouble, rushing to the fertile fields over there to wreak havoc, spoiling a lot of food, the nearby residents have seen a huge black shadow, and some people are frightened, fortunately, this big monster does not mean to hurt people, always after a period of destruction, before dawn to go up the mountain again." ”
"Then you didn't send anyone to stop it?"
"Of course I did, there used to be a group of militia to catch up, but they were all scared away before they got close. Later, mercenary missions were also released, but they were all farmers, and the commission was not high, and few really powerful warriors could see it, and everyone got used to it after a long time, so let this monster eat something from the field at night, and then make up for it during the day. Fortunately, this monster has no intention of hurting people, but it is fine. But yesterday a huntress took over the task, and perhaps the sound was that they were fighting. ”
"Huntress?" Egger's heart moved.
The proprietress observed her words: "Don't worry, my lord, I know this huntress, she is a young and beautiful huntress, she lives in my shop, I heard that she came from the East Valley Lumberyard, her name is Osha, do you know each other?" ”
"Osha?" That's really ......
Iger didn't pay attention to the proprietress who lit the fire of gossip, and looked at Claire and Ellie, and after working together for a long time, the two sisters understood what Iger meant: "Brother Ai, listening to this roar is very urgent, I'm afraid they have already started fighting, it's just fine, why don't we go and see?" ”
"Let's go! Hostess, don't take this meal, we'll come when we go. The proprietress quickly agreed.
Leaving the inn and turning right, rushing in the direction from which the sound came, the roar was noticeably faster, and the three of them were on foot, because the sisters had no magic reins, and their horses had to be kept in the shop, and only Iger had horses to use. After all, it was Onidle's instructions, and now that the battle situation was urgent, Iger had no choice but to get on his horse and take the first step, and let the two sisters come over slowly.
It was Osa who was fighting now, she knew a few days ago that the situation on this side of Red Ridge Mountain was urgent, and her father had fallen here, so her mother persuaded her not to stay and had to let her travel and stay at the Lakeside Town Hotel. Hearing that there are monsters here that have been causing trouble for a long time, the enthusiastic Osa doesn't care about the commission and insists on taking the task. She spent the past two nights lurking in the massive fertile fields nearby, and with her hunter's tracking skills, she easily spotted the monster and approached it quietly.
The monster was actually a huge boar, as large as a hill, so to speak, only a circle smaller than the Kodomon, with a long pair of fangs exposed, bloodshot red eyes, and fierce eyes. But it's strange that it's here, supposedly, such a fierce beast should have a more irritable and impulsive personality, right? However, it never hurt anyone, according to the description of the person who was scared away before, it was clear that he was probably trampled to death by the giant beast, but in the end it did not attack the humans, but only ate some crops in the fields and destroyed some cheap utilities.
Although Osha is a shooting hunter, she also has an action partner like a forest bear, and she still has some knowledge of wild beasts, and this giant boar's very unreasonable behavior makes her wonder. After several days of observation, she found that the wild boar would stand quietly somewhere in a daze from time to time, and often at this time, its eyes were no longer bloodshot, as if it had regained some reason, but there were not many such times, most of the time it was still very violent, and at this time its eyes must be red......
The giant boar was not a vicious beast, but it was on the verge of being demonized by some kind of power. This is the conclusion that Osa came to after observing for a long time.
As a full-fledged hunter, she has a special affection for her animal companions, especially the huge and powerful boar in front of her, if she can appease it and eventually domesticate it into her own animal companion, not only can this demonized beast be freed, but also increase her own combat power, why not?
Although she already has a forest bear companion, this forest bear who has been following her since she was a child is a junior pet after all, with too low level and limited qualifications, and can play a limited role in facing increasingly difficult battles. She didn't want to abandon it, but the giant boar in front of her was obviously better qualified than the forest bear to hide, and was more suitable for the later battle.
Hunters can carry one animal companion from the very beginning, and they can carry one more for every level 30 in the future, and Osa is actually level 32 at the moment, and she is already capable of carrying two animal companions. Unlike Wow, this carrying ability does not require the help of the hotel enclosure, she can change animal companions at any time, and it is also possible to change them during battle, but this switch takes time, and the laws of the continent limit that she can only fight with one animal companion. It's fine to switch in normal times, but it can be thankless in battle.
The forest bear wouldn't give up, but this boar was exactly what she needed, so she was glad that she had taken on the task wisely. However, soon, her happiness turned into helplessness. (To be continued......)
