Chapter Seventy-Four: The Kobold Tribe
Ye Mo drove the jeep and drove for nearly three hours before he could only get out of the car and walk on foot.
Ahead is a small town, the houses are collapsed, the bricks are messy, and from a distance, it looks like a ghost town, and occasionally there is a series of non-existent roars, like a wolf howl at midnight, which is terrifying.
Ye Mo didn't go directly through the town, although the detour would increase the time, but there was no need to risk being alone and walking through the town full of demons.
As far as the eye can see, the former city has become a ruin, the former prosperity has been covered by darkness, and occasionally you can see some weeds growing on the side of the road.
Their seeds were scattered to Earth through the Abyssal Demons, but fortunately they didn't have much attack power, otherwise humanity wouldn't be able to move an inch.
Ye Mo rested for a while, gently washing a few daggers with clean water by the river.
The water in the river is undrinkable, untreated, and full of rotten smell, but nature is also magical, and after a few years, nature will be purified.
There are no city lights, no car exhaust, and although the sky is still dark, the air is rarely awake.
Ye Mo was wearing black civilian clothes, allowing himself to hide in the dark as much as possible, his body was very clean, there was no trace of the smell of blood, and the demons were always sensitive to blood.
Suddenly!
His whole body was full of excitement, and the flying blade that had been put away instantly returned to his hand, and he leaned against a withered old willow tree by the river, and looked around vigilantly.
A bright figure suddenly fell slowly from the sky, its feathers emitted a soft light, its neck was slender and graceful, especially above its head, three white whiskers with a hint of transparency hung down.
"Bai Yi!" Ye Mo let out a low sigh, he didn't expect that he would actually see the creatures of the Heavenly Realm now.
In addition to humanoid creatures in the heavenly realm, there are naturally other creatures, some of which are also very aggressive, but they cannot dominate the heavenly realm, and in the heavenly realm, they are still the world of human beings.
Bai Yi: The creatures of the first heaven in the heavenly realm hate all filth, especially water, where it lives, the water source will be purified.
Bai Yi is similar to a swan, but its body is a little longer than that of a swan, and it has a simple spell attack, of course, as long as it doesn't provoke it, this is a celestial creature with a habit of cleanliness, and it usually attacks each other when it encounters carrion corpses or abyss demons.
It glanced at Ye Mo proudly, with the emotion of looking at dirty things in its eyes, and then under it, a layer of white light rippled out, and the nearby water source gradually disappeared the smell.
Ye Mo was speechless.
Although he has no hostility towards the creatures of the heavenly realm, he doesn't have much affection for them, these creatures seem to be born superior, he has encountered a lot in the previous life, some of them are directly killed, and they can also gain a lot of experience points.
There is no communication between the two sides, and it is normal to encounter the creatures of the heavenly realm in the days to come, basically passing by, of course, if you encounter those who are more fierce, you can also kill them.
The Celestial Realm will not object, just like the monsters in the abyss often fight each other, this is originally a world of survival of the fittest.
Bai Yi left quickly, I don't know where to fly, Ye Mo didn't make a move, the previous Bai Yi was at least level 8, and the other party could fly, so it was quite troublesome to move.
Don't look at Bai Yi as docile, but most of them belong to the camp of the Lord of the Stars, and most of the Bai Yi, who are the first in the Heavenly Realm, believe in the goddess of war.
However, this has nothing to do with human beings, unless there are gods above to spread their beliefs, otherwise, like Ye Mo, they just belong to the camp of the six gods and demons or the Lord of the Stars, and they don't have any faith.
For these, even in the previous life, human beings knew very little, and Ye Mo could hardly guess what the composition of the heavenly realm and the abyss was, what he needed to do now was to follow the rules and live well, only the strong could make the rules.
……
After resting for a while, Ye Mo began to grope his way forward along the route provided by the task.
The journey back and forth takes a day, this day does not include rest time, it is a full twenty-four hours, fortunately, Ye Mo often traveled long distances in his previous life, otherwise, it would be a bit unbearable.
At noon the next day, Ye Mo came to the mission site, this is a county-level city, and there are definitely people living in the city, but they are all scattered.
The location of the mission is on the outskirts of the city, which is overgrown with gladiolus, a plant from the abyss.
They can grow to a meter tall in three days, and after ten days, the tallest gladiolus is at least a few meters, and this gladiolus in front of Ye Mo's eyes seems to be like a dwarf forest.
Most of the abyssal plants have no attack power, but gladiolus is still very sharp, and any one can be used as a weapon.
They don't grow on sunlight.
Ye Mo directly entered the state of shadow stealth, since the other party was a tribe, it meant that there were at least hundreds of them.
Ye Mo noticed that there were signs of felling of the gladiolus here, and he smelled a dog smell nearby.
"Is it a kobold?"
Ten minutes later, Ye Mo found some kobold hair in an abandoned house.
Kobolds come from the second level of the Abyss, and their lower body resembles a human except for a tail, except that it is covered in hair and walks upright.
The head is a typical dog's head, with sharp fangs often used to gnaw rocks and thus build their tribes.
The IQ of adult kobolds is about the same as that of five or six-year-old children, and in every tribe, there will be kobold wise men, who have no offensive power, but their IQ is no different from that of adult humans, and they will train the rest of the kobolds to hunt, produce, work, and so on.
Escaping into the shadow plane, Ye Mo groped his way to the vicinity of the kobold tribe.
This area was originally supposed to be a single-family villa, but now it has been leveled by kobolds, and rows of wooden houses have been built with a lot of wood, and the style of the wooden houses is also very strange, and the exit is a circular hole.
Ye Mo roughly estimated through the number of wooden houses that there should be a hundred to one hundred and twenty kobolds here.
In the tribe, there are old kobolds and cubs, which means that the other party was forced to come to Earth.
Because of the instability of the spatial passage, sometimes many abyssal demons will be accidentally involved.
Generally, those who take the initiative to come in are young, strong, and aggressive.
There are several kobolds in the tribe who are sharpening wooden spears, and others are crafting bows and arrows.
It is surrounded by a fence and there are three kobolds patrolling the perimeter.
The darkness didn't have much effect on kobolds, because their noses were extremely sensitive, and because of this, Ye Mo didn't dare to sneak in.
"Excluding the old, the weak, the sick, and the young, it is estimated that there are less than thirty kobolds who can really fight, and more than a dozen of them have gone out hunting."
In fact, these kobolds are also pitiful, they were swept in and came to the earth, and they didn't adapt to many places, not even many weapons.
Of course, kobolds are also quite cruel to humans.
The tribe was littered with human remains, and several kobold cubs kicked a ball with a human dried-up head, plopping and watching the seep people.
Every time Ye Mo went out, just in case, he would bring a more aggressive scroll, and this time he also brought the Ash Technique scroll.
But even if he is a mage, he is not as wealthy as him, and he is a scroll at every turn.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Ye Mo can not use the scroll without using it, but rely on his own strength to win the opponent.
The contribution points taken by the fifth-level scarlet altar, Ye Mo also planned to arm his own men and horses, and there was no extra money to spend on it.
Ye Mo lurked next to a gladiolus, a dagger across his chest, flashing out of the shadow plane.
"Kill the dozen or so adult kobolds first, and then wait until the outgoing kobolds come back before killing them."
The Demon Pattern Tablet is not wrong, if a tribe continues to grow, then it is very likely that the Flood Stone Carving will come.
Ye Mo's hands holding the dagger tightened, this group of kobolds were wearing inferior leather, this leather was a product unique to the abyss, and the defense was good, blocking the fatal parts.
Ye Mo could only deal a fatal blow to them by avoiding the range of the leather.
