Chapter 0098: Fire Demons and Humans (4)
Anne slept comfortably today, especially after two days of intense fighting, she was very tired from consuming too much mana, after all, no matter how strong she was, she couldn't change the fact that she was still just a little girl.
Now, after a long sleep in a deep sleep, the blue stripe has recovered at least more than half, which is enough to magnify her moves, if there is anything that does not have long eyes to provoke her again.
Sure enough, after waking up from sleep, Anne felt that her little bear Tiebs's proposal was completely correct, and with Shane Knox and their group of fire demons guarding the outside, no more undead who didn't have long eyes would dare to disturb her!
In this dangerous world, you really need a group of subordinates, otherwise, if you run out of a cat or dog casually, you have to deal with it yourself, and it will be annoying!
The thought of the dense undead that she had encountered in the north yesterday and the day before yesterday made Anne angry! Anyway, little Anne has already thought about it, and when her army of flames is slowly summoned, they must be good-looking! They must know that they dare to provoke the fate of the Flame Queen! There are more fools than people, right? Hum! She also has a lot of flame army, and she can scare them to death if she says it, who is afraid of whom?
Because the bunk bed in the lumberjack's house was so dirty, Anne had Timbers the bear restrain the shadow flames on her body yesterday, used it as a mattress, and fell asleep on the bear's soft belly.
Except for waking up halfway through and eating a little elf cake to satisfy her hunger, Anne slept until the morning of the next day. Originally, she could have stayed in bed for a while, but after hearing what seemed to be a human noise outside, she couldn't help but start to be a little curious, and she decided to go out now to see what was going on.
Because Anne remembers very well, she just summoned five hundred fire elementals yesterday to help her clean up the undead so that she could get a good night's sleep.
But now she found out why there was so much noise of human speech outside. She could clearly hear some of the baby's cries, and the laughter of some of the little kids as they played? That's a bit weird.
......
"Hey! Shane Knox! What's going on over there, what's going on there? How could there be so many people all of a sudden? ”
Sitting on Tiebs's shoulder, too lazy to get off the ground, Anne dozed off with her eyes rubbed with one hand, and grabbed the bear's head with the other, before she walked out of the lumberjack's humble hut and looked at the other side of her fire demon camp just across the road from her own fire demon camp, where there was originally another large logging site. But now, it's bustling with at least a thousand humans? They're still making breakfast on a fire?
Anne remembers very well that yesterday she and Tiebs the bear had been wandering around for a long time, and they had not seen even half a living person except for the undead who seemed to never be able to kill them!
And now, she just slept comfortably for an afternoon and a night, how could she wake up and find that suddenly there were so many living people here? Where did they come from?
"My Majesty, they fled yesterday evening, and by your orders, after seeing that we did not drive them out, they took possession of the great lumberyard over there. Do you want to send some of my men over and drive them away now? ”
Shane Knox, who was supervising the Fire Demon Elders' continued construction of the Flame Gate, hurriedly ran over after hearing Anne's call.
Now that the Flame Gate they had built by the Fire Demon was beginning to take shape, it looked like it should be large enough for a medium-sized Lavastone Golem to pass through, and even smaller ones like the Molten Hound or the Lava Runner would be no problem.
"Forget it, then let them stay over there, they look pitiful."
Little Anne herself is a kind little girl, and those people know that they are refugees who have just escaped from the hands of the undead, and they are all dirty! Since they want to stay here, so be it, anyway, she doesn't have to worry about taking care of their own food, they can stay as long as they like!
After figuring out what had happened, little Anne didn't want to bother with it, she patted Tibbs on the bear's head, sat on the bear's shoulder, and shook her feet, and let it carry her to the back of the hut where she slept, and she knew that there was a well there, and she should be able to get some clean spring water to wash it up, or else she would have to use water-making.
"That's right! Shane Knox, hurry up and build that gate of yours a little faster, a little more, it's better to get me tens of thousands of flame armies out, I'm going to settle accounts with those undead in a few days! ”
Little Anne is not the master who is bullied but does not fight back, in her opinion, the death knight who stabbed Tiebs and wanted to cut himself must be in league with the undead in this place! Then, whether he was killed by herself or not, she wanted to take revenge and come back, and if she couldn't find the right owner, she would take revenge on these undead to vent her anger! Lead her army of flames and sweep away the undead of this land! Hum!
"Follow your orders, my majesty! It's just..., this portal we are building now, due to the size and energy limitations, can only pass through hundreds of fire elements every day, if it takes tens of thousands of troops, I'm afraid it will take more time and more flame gates......" As soon as he heard that Queen Anne needed tens of thousands of troops, Shane Knox's eyes lit up.
In fact, Shannox is not afraid of how many troops Queen Anne wants, it is only afraid that their queen will not let it continue to summon!
Anyway, there are more fire elemental lives in the Land of Flames, and after tens of thousands of years of reproduction, there are so many that it can't make specific statistics! The fire elements pinched by Lord Leolis alone are at least a million, and they are all about to overflow! What is the tens of thousands of flame army? As long as there is enough time, and there is no blind thing to mess around, Shane Nox dares to pat his chest and promise that in ten or eight years, theoretically, it can get an army of millions of flames to show you!
"Okay, you can do this little thing yourself! I'm going to freshen up now. "Little Anne doesn't want to care about these things, so let them toss, as long as they are obedient.
Shannox nodded and bent in response, and only after watching their queen leave and walk to the back of the cottage did it turn around, intending to find its cousin, the new chief hunter in charge of the dogs, who was going to inquire about the humans. Although Her Majesty the Flame Queen does not intend to pursue the matter of humans, as the head of the Queen, he should always ask about it.
"Shaturu, humans over there, do you know what's going on? I just took a cursory look, and if I'm not counting wrong, how many of them... How does it seem to be getting more and more? ”
Shannox was also a little puzzled, but he remembered very well that yesterday evening, those humans, at first, were only a group of a few hundred refugees and twenty-one ordinary soldiers wearing armor and holding shields.
And now? Look over there, there are at least a thousand living people, and dozens of the same soldiers! If it weren't for the fact that their strength really didn't pose a big threat, Shane Knox would have sent lava dogs to drive them away, how could they tolerate them staying next to their camp like this?
"Ah, this ....., it is said, seems to have been Otunk who ran out of the canyon to fight the undead, and then, all the living people he saved came here to take refuge....."
Shaturu still heard a human about this news. Shaturu was one of the few fire demons who knew the lingua franca of Azeroth, so it wasn't too difficult to communicate with the humans properly.
"Fight the undead? Still running out? How unreasonable! Is there any discipline left? Is this still the Land of Fire? In case it provokes a lot of people, there will be times when it cries! Hurry up, send someone right away, go get it back! Then you send your men to set up a checkpoint on the side of the mountain pass, and without my consent, no fire demon fire dog is allowed to run outside again! "After finally knowing how these humans came to be, Shane Knox got a little angry!
Are these bunnies really a place where the world of Azeroth can go wild with them? A fire demon dares to run out and fight the undead? If you meet a strong person, there is a time for it to cry! It's a testing ground for the Titans, and who knows what those madmen have left behind? People just throw a few guardians out, and it's enough for them to bear the fire demons!
"Yes! I'll send someone to get it back right away! Shaturu nodded, and was about to turn away, but their boss shouted at him again.
"Wait, that ...... And who is that Otunk? When did we have such a brave warrior in the Fire Demon Clan? ”
Shane Knox frowned and thought for a long time, but he didn't remember who this fire demon named Otok was! In its mind, if it can run out alone and go wild, its strength must be relatively strong, so it should be a little impressed, why doesn't it seem to have heard of such a fire demon as Otunk? This is really weird!
"Uh..., my lord, because Otuk is not from our Fire Demon clan at all, it is actually the lava giant....."
"So that's it...... Alright, it's the same, you send someone to get it back. Shane Knox nodded, it wouldn't be strange if it was that big guy.
If you think about it carefully, it's true, the average undead really can't help it, not to mention that it's also a lava lord level, and it's very large, with both size and strength, and those undead's claws or weapons, it's estimated that they can't cut it, right?
……
After the current head of the hunters, Shaturu, sent his men to take a few lava dogs and arrange to find the lava giant who had run outside to go crazy, he was stopped by a human soldier before he could enter the camp.
"Yo? I remember you, your name is...... John! Right? What's the matter? Seeing that the human who stopped him was an acquaintance, Shaturu began to be unkind.
It was all last night, and this human gave it the credit of a roast pig. At that time, half of the roast pig was given to his cousin Shane Knox, and because of this, he received a lot of praise and reward, so he was more interested in this human.
"Your Excellency the powerful Chief Hunter of Shaturu, this is the case, I want to ask you a small matter, I wonder if you have time now?"
Old John, who had already taken off his helmet and dropped his weapon and shield, approached the fire demon empty-handed, and handed over a roast rabbit as he spoke. He knew that these strange flame creatures were especially fond of meat cooked by humans!
"Hah, that's it! Slippery humans, if you have anything to say, I'll send someone to the mountain pass to set up a sentry in a while! Don't wait too long. Swallowing his saliva, Shaturu quickly stuffed the roast rabbit into his weapon bag without a trace.
After receiving the other party's gift, Shaturu finally nodded with satisfaction, this human is very good, and the food made is also delicious, for this, it is very satisfied!
"That's right, sir. I just saw a little human girl in your camp? It's the one who sat on the shoulders of a huge bear, the one who ...... It's supposed to be a human, right? ”
Old John, the guard officer of Second Lieutenant Lordaeron, who had been secretly vigilant and observing the fire demon camp since yesterday, unexpectedly discovered something incredible this morning! In the other party's camp, there is a little human girl?
And, more importantly, the little girl also looked like a commanding officer to the big boss of the fire demons, which shocked Old John! If he wasn't mistaken, that little girl was definitely a living human! Why, then, was she, a little human girl, able to command this group of powerful fire creatures? Old John was very puzzled by this, and he had to figure it out as soon as possible!
So, when he saw that old acquaintance, oh no! It was the old demon Shaturu, and when he walked out of their camp, Ensign John quickly grabbed a rabbit from the grill and came up to inquire about it.
"Oh, you read that right, the big man is indeed a human, but! She is also the greatest queen of our Flame Kingdom, Her Majesty Anne! ”
Shaturu frowned, staring at the human in front of him with a serious expression, trying to see from the other party's eyes what the other party was trying to do! After a long while, after seeing that the human should indeed be just curious, and had no other malice, it continued:
"John, for the sake of your more pleasing look, I advise you here: don't inquire about the Queen! And don't try to get close to her casually, those royal guards don't talk as well as I do, and any armed and threatening creatures will kill you if they approach them without notice! Especially, armed human soldiers like you! ”
At the same time, after tapping the armor on the opponent's chest with his finger, without waiting for any reaction from the human in front of him, Shaturu turned around and walked directly into the camp, it was very busy. After a while, we will send some people to set up a checkpoint on the other side of the mountain pass, and then we will send people to continue to guard there, and we must not let a bastard like Otuk run out and cause trouble casually!
......
Is it really human? Although he didn't know what kind of country the Flame Kingdom was, after hearing that the biggest leader of the other party was indeed a human, Old John finally felt a little relieved, and now he finally understood why these flame monsters didn't kill the living.
When the group had just arrived yesterday, he had seen from a distance that the fire demons were building a strange arched structure. John Sr. was very sensitive to things like that! It was so similar to the Dark Gate he'd ever seen, like ...... A trumpet-vaulted dark door?
Originally, Old John had been very worried, afraid that these fire demons were preparing to summon more flame monsters to come! He was afraid, before the undead catastrophe was over, Lordaeron would usher in another catastrophe similar to the orc war, which would be terrible! The damage of the two orc wars to the Human Alliance is still vivid, look at his original comrades-in-arms and relatives, how many are left now?
But now, after hearing that the other party's leader was a human and a human queen, Old John felt a little more relieved. After all, if the other party is a human, they will never treat their own people like orcs or undead, right? Judging from the fact that the current fire demons don't make a move on living humans, he can probably see the other party's attitude.
In this way, Old John finally put his mind at ease, he is ready to go back and restrain the new subordinates and refugees, such a large group of people is really a bit troublesome to manage, and he has to worry about food and shelter! Anyway, in the near future, he doesn't plan to leave this temporarily safe place, and everything will wait until the situation outside is clear.
As for whether these fire demons will occupy the land of the Lordaeron Kingdom after they grow and grow, Old John doesn't bother to pay attention to it! What the hell is this? Anyway, his old John is just a little ensign on duty guarding the guard tower and waiting for death, an ant-like existence! These big things related to the territory of the Lordaeron Kingdom should be something that only those noble lords with heads and faces need to worry about!
In the distance in the middle of the forest, when John Sr. and Shaturu the fire demon had just finished talking, the young man Pete was carefully supporting his sister Lana, and the two finally staggered out of the forest path.
"Sister, look! I'm not wrong, right? Those are the kind of big monsters I encountered, and you see, they really don't kill people! And, it seems, there are more living people over there, wow! Look! And even the army of our kingdom of Lordaeron! ”
Pete saw two camps in the distance, one of which was a human refugee, and now he saw not only the two sides living in harmony, but also a Lordaeron officer who seemed to be talking amicably with the snake-like monster, so that he and her sister were finally safe, and from now on, the two siblings would never have to live in that damp cave again!
