Chapter Seventy-Two: The Centaur High Priest

"Centaurs have good night vision, and they can see their surroundings clearly with a little light in the dark." Joanna said.

It was still Qi Yu who was at the forefront, and Simiranda was at the end, and the ** in his hand exuded a cold light. Joanna, the only woman, was protected in the middle.

Although with her strength is more than enough to protect herself.

At this time, Simiranda's holy light technique finally came in handy, and the tall man raised his wand slightly like a moving beacon to illuminate the surrounding situation.

The walls on both sides of the cave walkway are smooth and have obvious signs of artificial axe chisels. There are also a mess of frescoes depicting centaurs hunting.

"Can they still hunt mountain giants?" Qi Yu pointed to one of the rough murals and said.

"In this mountain range, centaurs have few natural predators. Coupled with the fact that they live in groups, there is no problem in hunting ordinary mountain giants. But the centaurs wouldn't provoke that creature unless they had to. "It was supposed to be a rare one, so it was recorded." ”

"It's a bit of a primitive tribe."

Smiranda said in the back.

The living conditions of human zebras are indeed very similar to those of primitive societies.

With the direction indicated by the arrow on the back of the hand, Qi Yu and the others did not have any possibility of getting lost. After a few forks in the road, the sound of horses' hooves on hard ground was heard echoing through the cave.

And Misranda's "Holy Light Technique" also noticed the centaurs around the bend not far away, and the sound of the horses' hooves suddenly became urgent.

Under the illumination of the Holy Light Technique, the three of Qi Yu saw a centaur carrying a thick stone stick appear in front of them. The centaur was surprised that a human would appear in its lair, and let out a roar.

Immediately afterward, the originally quiet cave suddenly became in a commotion, and all kinds of chaotic horses' hooves and the language of centaurs could be heard echoing in it. Behind Qi Yu and the others, the sound of centaurs also came from the avoidable aisles.

After a while, the three of Qi Yu were surrounded by the centaurs who rushed over. All around them were strong and tall male zebra people, and the female centaurs and hatchlings were hiding behind, looking at Qi Yu and the three with curious eyes.

However, the only weapons in the hands of these centaurs are wooden sticks, stone sticks, and so on, and they don't even have bows and arrows. Only half of the centaurs still have these tools. It seems that the centaurs have not yet developed any powerful productive forces.

The centaurs they encountered earlier should belong to the elite of the clan to be eligible to use bows and arrows.

Surrounding the three of them, exhaling a language that only Joanna could barely hear, these half-humans immediately swayed their hooves restlessly on the ground, and did not act rashly. Much gentler than the grumpy centaurs outside.

"What are they discussing?" Qi Yu turned his head and asked Joanna.

In the face of the centaur blocking the road, he didn't have a good way, the cave walkway was so big and wide, and the two centaurs blocked it as soon as they went there. Even if Qi Yu used his magic to stun all these centaurs, they would fall down enough to form a "wall of flesh" to block Qi Yu's path.

Unless, Qi Yu used the fireball technique to burn them to the point that there were no slag left. However, Qi Yu did not do this, so far, he has been very measured, so that the centaur will not die. He didn't want to make any such thing as a "race war".

"They're informing the High Priest—" There was a strange glint in Joanna's eyes.

"The one who adopted you before?" Qi Yu asked.

Along the way, Joanna also learned a lot about her background, and was adopted by a lone centaur, and was taken away by Karin when she was about four or five years old. There are a few twists and turns, but it's not a very special experience, and there's nothing to shy away from.

"I don't know." Joanna shook her head, there were two centaur populations in the Centaur Range, and she didn't know if her "centaur mother" was the high priestess of this species.

"Human, come with us."

After a while, news came from the High Priest, and a centaur said to the three Qi Yu.

The three of them glanced at each other, but did not resist, and followed. Joanna also wanted to see if the High Priestess was her "centaur mother".

After passing through the winding walkways, the road ahead also became wider, and the unknown stones embedded in the sides of the walkway emitted a faint fluorescence. Ignoring the centaurs before and after, it also presents a bit of fantasy and wonderful flavor here.

"The High Priest is inside."

At an entrance that resembled a cave hall, the centaurs leading the way stopped, and the other centaurs who followed behind also retreated, disappearing into the dim cavern like a tide.

Joanna took a deep breath, she had only returned to Centaur Mountain once a few years ago, and that time she had met Sheila, but not her centaur mother, Natianavida. I don't know if I'll see her this time.

The cave hall was obviously carefully polished, with huge round stone pillars, like a domed church, and candles lit on both sides, showing a bit of grandeur. It probably took generations of centaurs to dig such a cave.

As soon as Qi Yu and the others stepped into the cave hall, a tall centaur with a height of nearly four meters walked in with a medieval-style candle flame in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "The high priest wants to see you and take off your weapons." ”

"Weapons?" Qi Yu and Joanna both looked at Smiranda. The only one with exaggerated weapons here is Smiranda.

"Okay."

Simiranda shrugged her shoulders casually, looked respectful, and threw her backpack, pistol, and ** to the ground. But the wand was still in his hand, and he said to the centaur, "You're not going to let a poor old man throw away his necessary crutches, are you?" ”

The centaur didn't speak, motioning for Qi Yu and them to follow him. It is a tacit acquiescence to Simiranda's statement.

The centaurs themselves are reclusive, and they know little about the outside world, and even if they do, they are all magicians. In their minds, there was no threat to humans who had lost those short sticks, and a centaur could fight ten humans.

It's a pity that all he meets are people who don't need "little sticks" - the violent mage Smiranda who claims to be a magister, and it may be stronger to free his hands.

Joanna, a psychic powerhouse, her brain is her weapon. There is also Qi Yu who simply relies on the huge amount of magic power to push one qiē.

The unknown centaur led Qi Yu and the three to the corner of the cave hall, groped a few times on the curved wall that did not have anything, and the sound of a mechanism opening appeared in the ears of Qi Yu and the three of them.

In the astonished gaze of the three people, a stone wall on the wall was removed, and a dark room appeared?

However, the small door that appeared was not large, and the four-meter-tall centaur could not enter at all. He leaned slightly by the door and said respectfully, "Your Excellency the High Priest, the people have already been brought, do you really want to let them in?" ”

"It's okay." A somewhat weak voice came from inside.

Hearing this voice, Joanna's body shook slightly, and she walked directly into the dark room. Qi Yu and Simiranda glanced at each other and walked in.

This dark room is different from a normal centaur cave, with a bed, a table and chairs, and even a wardrobe. A small hole was opened in the top of the head, allowing the light to shine down and join the fluorescent stone next to it. Fill the room with light.

A diminutive centaur nestled on a haystack next to the bed, watching the three men enter. And on the bed, there is really a sleeping figure, which is the dome that has been missing for a long time.

"Mother-sama—"

Seeing the somewhat weak centaur, Joanna stepped forward and suppressed the excitement in her heart.

"Jojo, my child, long time no see." A faint smile appeared on Natyavida's face, "I remember when you were taken away, you were only so big. It's rare that you still remember me. ”

"Yes." Joanna said, "I won't forget you, Mother—"

"That's how you repaid me? Bringing two outsiders to disturb the peaceful life of our centaurs? Suddenly, Natyavida's voice became stern, very different from her sickly and frail appearance.

"Mother, I—" Joanna obviously didn't expect Natia Vida to say this suddenly, and was speechless for a moment.

"Shut up! Now, take your two companions and get out of here. For your sake, I'll let you go, as if it never happened! Natiavi said with a hand pointing at Qi Yu and Simiranda, her tone still stern.

Joanna was about to say something, but Qi Yu on the side raised his hand to stop her.

He had already seen that this cold and glamorous royal sister on the outside was not at all like what she appeared on the outside, and her heart was even a little weak. The ice-like shell wasn't very hard either, and it would shatter with a little force. Maybe there is still a little resistance in front of strangers, but in the face of familiar people, it is not the cold and glamorous royal sister.

The so-called "weak country has no diplomacy", especially the centaur table Xiàn is extremely hostile, and I can't wait for a few people to disappear from here as soon as possible. In the case of killing it directly if it doesn't disappear, things like "communication" are still more suitable for Qi Yu to do.

"I wonder if you've made a mistake?" Qi Yu took a step forward and stood in front of Joanna, looking directly at Natya Vida, his eyes suddenly burning like golden flames.

A pair of golden vertical pupils full of the coercion of high-level creatures looked at Natia Vida, and Qi Yu said slowly: "Whether you can go or not, it is not something you can decide from the beginning-"
