Chapter 357: Ogre Raiders
“……”
Qin Fen's face suddenly darkened, and he said emotionally for a long time, you just want me to steal?!
When the old half-orc saw that Qin Fen's face was wrong, he hurriedly shook the pot:
"My wise and wise master, you told me that! Can't you punish your most loyal and probable servant for this! ”
Qin Fen sighed helplessly, he was also defeated by the shamelessness of this guy, and said:
"Okay, tell me where the ogre in your mouth is, and I'll go and beat its '' out tomorrow!"
“……”
After another moment, the werewolf scientist's field trip finally came to an end:
"Boss, to be honest, although the environment here is very poor, I think it's acceptable to endure it."
"Why does that sound like 'Doctor, can I still save it?'"
Sebastian nodded seriously: "Did you hear my complaint?" But then again, the surgical tools and the most critical procedures are in my head, and the harsh environment is barely acceptable. After all, when they went to the battlefield to fight, the Singlan medical team could only provide emergency treatment to the wounded in the midst of the war, and the situation at that time would certainly not be worse than now. ”
Qin Fen nodded in agreement. Although modern medical care has very strict requirements for the surgical environment, it depends on whether the actual situation allows it - obviously, it is a place where magic and witchcraft coexist, but the technologically backward world of Middle-earth, and in this miserable misty mountain range, it is impossible to find a surgical environment that meets the standards. In that case, let's just come, anyway, orcs are not as weak as humans, and ordinary tossing will not kill them...... Well, that last sentence is the point.
After the field investigation was completed, Qin Fen and the werewolf scientists left the cave, anyway, there were no organs on hand for transplantation, so it was better to come out and breathe fresh air.
Nothing was said all night. The next morning, the orcs began to walk out of the cave one after another. The social pattern of these orcs is somewhat similar to that of Stone Age hominids, who do not produce and rely on hunting and gathering for food. It can be said that except for the half-orcs, who are too small, the rest of the men and women must be self-reliant, because in the simple brain circuit of the half-orcs, there is no such emotional structure as "pity the fragrance and cherish the jade".
Because of Douglas's advice last night, although these chaotic orc scavengers would stare at them with curiosity, greed, and even drool, none of the orcs dared to take a step beyond the thunder pool. After a while, they dispersed.
Qin Fen had already woken up very early, easily hunted and killed a few small animals that were foraging nearby, and even an elk, and then lit a fire on the spot to roast food and feast on it. The werewolf scientist entered the cave and pulled out the sleepy-eyed Douglas. Originally, this guy was still unhappy, but when he saw the oily roast slowly turning on the bonfire, he suddenly jumped up like a rabbit, his eyes lit up, and he rushed over, exclaiming:
"Ah, my great master, please reward poor old Doug with a paltry piece of roast!"
Qin Fen didn't even raise his eyelids, "Go wash your hands first, and you'll have something to eat later." ”
The group was full of food and drink, Qin Fen stretched his waist, narrowed his eyes again, and Douglas, who was picking at the gap between his teeth with a comfortable face, kicked it over, and said:
"It's time to get down to business and take us to the ogre's cave."
……
The Ogre is an ugly and greedy large humanoid creature, one of the creatures belonging to the chaotic evil camp, and is a branch of goblin creatures in the broad sense, related to bear goblins, orcs, kobolds, etc. They are lazy and fierce, and their tempers are worse than those of orcs.
In Middle-earth, ogres are mostly solitary creatures, like tigers, lions, and other fierce beasts, and their violent tempers make them likely to get angry over the slightest thing, and when they do, they will aimlessly attack everything they can see. So unless it's mating/mating season, they usually live alone.
Ogres are highly adaptable to the external natural environment, and can appear in various land, water, and underground caves, and are common and dangerous enemies for the convenience of predation, usually living near the target victim colonies. In fact, ogres are omnivorous and prefer to eat the flesh of elves, dwarves, and humans, so there is only a 10% chance that the above three races will become prisoners and slaves after being captured...... The famous hobbit traveler Bao Bell. Grylls once said:
If you're caught by an ogre while traveling, the only expectation is that they've just had a full meal, or you'll be eaten alive bite by bite like a snack.
Trust me, that's definitely the most damn memory, not one of them.
Well, by the way, orcs are also a big meal in the ogre's recipe......
Douglas led the adventurers over the mountains, and after half an hour, they came to a cliff and pointed to a cave on the cliff face:
"That foul-smelling fool lives in it. Great master, I won't go in with you before I can move my arm......"
Qin Fen rolled his eyes and said, "Who said you were going in?" ”
Fighting an ogre in a small and dark environment is undoubtedly a very unwise thing, Qin Fen is not a masochist, why should he look for abuse?
Qin Fen had already prepared eighteen traps to deal with ogres, where was the need to fight hard? The reason is simple, ogres are not intelligent creatures, with their brain capacity similar to that of orcs, even if they know that there is a trap under their feet, they will rush forward in anger......
Qin Fen's patience was also excellent, and after thinking about it, he let Douglas lead the way in front and walked along the mountain to the col. As a creature, ogres inevitably need to drink water, and as long as they walk along the hollows of the mountains, it is naturally easy to find traces of water sources and the like.
Sure enough, Qin Fen and the others quickly found clear footprints next to the small lake in this mountain col, the footprints were very large, and it was conceivable what kind of height the ogre should have. Perhaps because of its ferocity, there are not many hoof prints of other creatures around the lake, more of them left by small rodents.
However, since he had decided to hunt the ogre, Qin Fen had also prepared in advance. Grumpy, greedy, stupid...... As long as you grasp these character weaknesses, the rest is very simple, just use the same set against the scaly horse to deal with the ogre.
First of all, the leftover barbecue for breakfast, which was cut into four or five catties of barbecue meat with belt bones by Qin Fen, for the ogre who has been drinking blood for many years, the meat pieces cooked and added with various seasonings are undoubtedly very rare 'delicious'.
And since he had shown such a huge amount of "sincerity", Qin Fen had reason to believe that the ogre would be very interested in the gift he had prepared. The saying that people die for money, birds die for food, and that has been passed down for thousands of years, and there must be a truth in it.
……
The morning air was crisp, and some beetles were circling and fluttering among the leaves, as if even the birds were still tired and unwilling to sing. After Qin Fen had a good rest, he was refreshed at the moment, and after arranging and preparing his first hands, he nodded to the others, and casually took out a piece of barbecue meat with an attractive aroma and threw it on the ground. Then he dropped a piece at intervals and groped his way to the ogre's cave.
Mornings in the Misty Mountains usually have morning fog, and the air is moist and icy. When Qin Fen came closer, he noticed the clear and huge footprints of the ogre on the damp ground, and listened closely, and could hear a faint snoring sound coming from the depths of the cave.
Qin Fen took a light breath, felt the stench in the air, and looked around. The terrain here is not steep, but more than 100 meters high hills, valleys, dense vegetation, the types of trees are mostly beech, zebra drunken wood, acacia trees, rubber trees, etc., shrubs and flowers are more, hydrangea vines, spiral flowers, plane flowers, snowdrops, sheep's feet are common.
Because there are often half-orcs who are preyed, the traces of half-orc activities are gradually decreasing, but the rodents are gradually increasing, and when he came over, Qin Fen casually caught one on the road.
"It's up to you, little one." Qin Fen looked at the gray-haired hare he had just caught in his hand, and then tied a string of firecrackers to its small short tail.
The gray-haired hare trembled, lying in Qin Fen's hand and not daring to move. But soon, it felt the wind whistling in its ears, and a strange, unprecedented, cloud-like sensation came over it. But before it could take a closer look, a series of explosions sounded behind the butt that I had never seen before!
As a timid rabbit by nature, there was an unknown sound of fear behind him, and his body quickly reacted instinctively in place of his brain...... Run! Unable to resist, what can you do if you don't run?
The grey-haired hare ran forward in a panic, trying to shake off the terrifying sound behind it, but soon, another angry roar sounded in front of it, and it was...... The roar of the woke ogre!
