Chapter 98: The Alchemist's Status
Watching the battle for the first time, Tang Shidao was deeply touched.
The smell of blood irritates the nose, the severed limbs stab the eyes, the steel and the flames, the rain of arrows and the poison, everything that happens in front of you is so incredible. As a person living in modern society, I have seen ancient battlefields and studied in the interstellar era, and the war in front of me is still beyond my imagination. Even when compared to the game, the bravery of these soldiers is still a lot more than that.
They are not only the fierce and fearless of the soldiers in online games, they feel like two crazy zombies hedged against each other, and it is almost impossible to describe in words.
This is beyond the level of bravery.
Reluctantly, it can only be described as 'bloodthirsty mania'.
Tang Shidao found that in addition to giving priority to protecting heroes, orcs are often obsessed with charging and killing enemies, as if they were not terrible enemies, but treasure chests. Seeing that the beast soldier whose neck was bitten through still drew a dagger and stabbed the evil monster fiercely, Tang Shidao couldn't help but feel a slight chill. This kind of behavior goes beyond the realm of beasts, and perhaps only the desperate ant can match it.
It was only a battle to defend the city, and the battle that almost crushed the opponent, and there were still many orc casualties at the end of the count.
The invading demons are also dead.
They want to hurt people.
Several 'hero' mages were also injured in this battle. They were the most attacked, and at the same time they were as brave as beasts, not at all like normal mages.
Postwar.
Seeing the soldiers desperately recovering the corpses, Tang Shidao asked the wolf poison master if he wanted to help.
The Wolf Venomer smiled.
Invited Tang Shidao to continue his journey and slowly walked down the city wall: "Don't worry, the mages are fine, and those dead soldiers will not really die." This is just the first stop in the Forbidden Lands, the first war fortress. The steel passage we just walked through was connected to the Void Sector where we could cast spells. As long as the body and the injured are returned, the treatment will be completed quickly. ”
Tang Shidao was stunned.
Looking back, a few kilometers behind him is exactly the place where the spell can be cast, and it will definitely be okay to send it in time.
The wolf poison master said again: "In the Forbidden Demon Land, the closer you are to the normal void, the safer it is, and the deeper you go into the Forbidden Demon Land, the more dangerous it is. This is only the edge, and if you use the mortality rate, there is only a 1% chance that you will die. Dig deeper, and the number becomes 5% or 10% probability. ”
Tang Shidao looked at the corpses of those beast soldiers: "They know that they won't die, so they desperately grab the battle merits?" ”
The wolf poison master nodded: "Yes, the only desire of the beast soldier is to achieve military merit, and he does not care about his life and death." Even in more dangerous places, the orcs are just as desperate. Don't think they have too high aspirations, like the nezumen, many of them are just for food. ”
Tang Shidao stopped talking.
Every race has its own needs, and every era has its own needs.
For example.
The Great Zhou State of the Emperor of Zhou, if he sent a team of soldiers in exchange for a life-prolonging potion, the Emperor of Zhou and the magnates would send soldiers overnight. Even if the modern country of the Emperor Star can send soldiers to change spaceships or something, they will also not send troops over in a disciplined manner.
If the civilization of the rat people is very high and there is no shortage of food, they will naturally not work hard for food.
Opposite.
If they were just primitive tribal patterns, it would be too normal to exchange warriors for food. Even in a civilized society like the Earth Emperor, there are countries that cause turmoil due to lack of food.
Between walks.
Soon.
Tang Shidao and the wolf poison master entered the inner city under the escort of the beast soldiers.
The inner city is also dominated by steel, and all buildings are designed with the main attribute of 'solidity' in mind, and there is no such thing as beauty. Most of the buildings are semi-circular, like large iron covers placed on the ground. The rest, all of them are tall towers and arrow towers.
"The Arrow Tower is in order to deal with the enemies flying in the sky. There is no place to hang out here, a small fortress is a separate combat area. ”
"There's a passage underground, right?" Tang Shidao felt a tremor underground.
"Yes. The transportation of materials is in underground steel passages, and transportation on the road is equivalent to sending them to the enemy for destruction. Once an enemy is coming, everyone must hide inside the fortress, and those who stay outside will not save you. All gates are closed at a fixed time, and you don't wait for you to slow down for a second. The Wolf Venom Master reminded as he spoke.
Tang Shidao felt that the underground tremors were getting bigger and bigger, and pointed.
The wolf venomist nodded: "Yes, there are battles underground. There are all kinds of creatures in the void, and it's not surprising that they are good at burrowing into the ground. Rest assured, these metals are all made by the refiner, and the sturdiness is absolutely fine. Generally, only huge giant beasts can be twisted with brute force, and small monsters can't bite through their teeth, and they can't be poisoned. The entire war fortress is a whole, but it is connected by a steel passage. ”
A safe fortress.
Enough supplies.
Miraculous resurrection.
There was really no danger on the fringes, so it was no wonder that the beast soldiers were so desperate to snatch the battle merits.
"Welcome, Lord Poison, Lord Owl." When I came to the hero's check-in desk, the host was a giant. It was about ten meters tall, heavily armored and heavily armoured, with a giant sword at hand, as if ready to fight at any moment.
"We'll need to get used to it for a while before we move on to the next war fortress, Lord Lord, excuse me." The wolf poisoner is the navigator, so he naturally responds.
"You're not new?" The Giant City Lord was slightly overjoyed when he heard this.
"I've been in the Forbidden Lands once." The wolf poisoner does not hide it either.
"Okay, great. Since it's a veteran hero, I won't say much, go get your equipment. I'll record you as a veteran hero in the recommendation so that you can find your comrades more easily. "The Giant City Lord didn't write it himself.
As it spoke, a group of nezumi were writing down conversations and information.
"Thank you for your concern, I can go to the Heroes' Tavern and find someone by myself. I'm an alchemist, and I can find my comrades with a shout. The wolf venomist said confidently.
Hearing this, Tang Shidao couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
This is not boasting.
The Wolf Poisoner is self-confidence, a kind of self-confidence that declares that he is an alchemist and is sought after by a large number of people.
In the mage.com.
Alchemists are generally weak in combat power, and reserve talents are only needed in large team missions. Unexpectedly, in the Forbidden Demon Land, the words 'alchemist' alone made everyone's eyes light up. From this, it can be seen that the alchemist is indeed important here.
"Great, it turns out that you are an alchemist. Grey Squirrel, add a pass mark to their badges, and you can come to the City Lord's Mansion to find me at any time. The Giant City Lord gestured.
The working rat man immediately complied.
"Thank you, city lord." The wolf poisoner was not happy to be cared for by the leader, as if, this was a very normal treatment.
At the same time, the wolf poison master handed over the little dragon's pawn card from before.
The Giant City Lord nodded naturally.
In the Forbidden Lands, it's not uncommon for a dragon to actively follow a hero, but it's not surprising that the other party is an alchemist.
A small formality.
The two of them transferred to the hero's arsenal. The leading nezumi knew that it was an alchemist, and deliberately opened the treasure house of the vault: "Two adults, these are the armor equipment treasured by the city lord. The inner armor made from the skin of the fire spring lizard is heat-resistant and warm-resistant, and is perfect for dealing with the excessive number of fire bees in the surrounding area. The exterior armor is made of Ula steel, which is tough and lightweight, and the black color is also suitable for night action. ”
Tang Shidao took it, and it was really not very heavy.
In terms of design, this armor is very suitable for combat, there is no bulky feeling, but rather like a combat uniform in the interstellar era.
"Lots of fire bees around?"
"Yes, sir. So we were going to produce some light armor, too bulky and not suitable for quick action. As for secondary weapons, it is recommended that you do not bring a strong crossbow, as the fire slurry of the little fire bee can damage small parts. If you go out, light shields and spear throwing are more suitable. There are a lot of giant toads out there, and light shields and throwing spears are better to deal with. The nezumi suggested.
"Give us a set." The wolf poisoner naturally obeyed, and the beast soldiers and beast workers did not dare to deceive the heroes.
"Yes." The rats were presented with light shields and a bag of short spears.
Finish receiving your gear.
The wolf poison master asked the way to the Hero Tavern again, and took Tang Shidao to find his comrades.
Tang Shidao is a little strange, why don't you need money for equipment.
The Wolf Poisoner only laughed.
Explain that the War Fortress in the Forbidden Lands has no shortage of resources, and the closer you get to the edge, the more resources you have. Because the resources of the mage network are calculated by the plane world, it is impossible to lack gold and iron ore. If it weren't for the fact that it was too difficult to convey the war fortress deep inside, the mages of the mage network could simply push flat with strong crossbows and sharp arrows.
In order to prevent the orcs from working hard, the War Fortress has set restrictions on the exchange of military merits for better equipment.
Heroes.
You can get whatever you want, in unlimited quantities.
Tang Shidao knew that this was not the full participation of the mage network in the war, but only a part of the people. However, with their dimensional world power, resources are really not a problem. For example, an interstellar civilization like the Blood Earl is too easy to supply gold and iron ore. It's easy for him not to be an emperor, let alone a big bull like the Astral Empress.
Thinking of the Astral Empress, Tang Shidao thought back to the words of the wolf poison master.
He once said: None of the people who have heard about it will be able to clear the Epic Training Ground...... Tang Shidao doesn't believe this sentence!
It was not clear that the Astral Empress had not met, so she said that Dean Bai Xiang, Tang Shidao did not believe that he could not pass the level. If Dean Bai Xiang didn't clear the customs, he must have deliberately not done it. In the Hunter Academy, those epic professors are too far away from Dean Bai Xiang, and it feels like it's not difficult to fight a group of people one by one.
It's also possible that something special will happen after clearing the epic training ground, so Dean Hakusang won't do it for the time being.
Didn't wait to think about it.
Soon.
The Heroes Tavern has arrived.
It's not a special place, it's just a mix of fiercer or more intelligent warriors. Seeing someone walk in, the mages in the field did not react. In this kind of world where everyone wears a mask, drinking wine and eating meat also leaves half of the mask, who cares who you are.
People who are not heroes don't have the guts to come in.
"New Ding or Old Bird?" The person in charge of the Hero Tavern is also a mage, a dragonman, a true mage in the net.
Seeing the unfamiliar mask, it threw two bottles of wine.
Tang Shidao was about to reach out to catch it, but the wolf poison master reached out to block it.
Two bottles of 'wine' fell to the ground.
There was a burst of sour smoke on the ground, and everyone in the room laughed.
"A new ding, an old bird." The dragon man boss also chuckled.
Tang Shidao didn't mind looking at it.
"This is a warning to newcomers, and it means: don't trust anyone but your teammates, including those who want to drink." ”
Tang Shidao only nodded slightly.
He could also see that the dragon man boss didn't want to harm himself, and if he really wanted to drink, it would definitely stop it.
This kind of lesson just keeps newcomers on their toes.
Don't be insensitive just because you're in a safe environment.
The dragon man boss handed out two more glasses and took out a bottle of wine. The wolf venomist preemptively said, "Don't open it, I'll do it myself, I don't want any bugs to stuff it in." ”
The boss of the dragon man gave a thumbs up, indicating that you are fully qualified: "What are you going to do?" ”
The wolf poisoner poured a cup, and after drinking, he felt that he was okay before pouring two glasses.
Hand a glass to Tang Shidao.
Raise the wine to signal to everyone in the venue, and then say, "We are looking for comrades." We are friends of the Mage Network, and we came to exercise together. ”
"Hahahaha......" everyone in the audience laughed loudly.
"You're in the wrong place. After a few more years of exercise, this little guy is not dead, and it is estimated that someone will consider it. The boss of the dragon man spread his hands and said that no one here wanted to team up with the rookies.
The wolf poisoner drank it slowly.
Put down your glass.
"I'm an alchemist," he said softly. ”
One word.
The whole tavern fell silent, and there was not a single laugh.
