Chapter 4: Deep in the Mountains
Irus and Cartis were wrapped in black cloaks, taking advantage of the dappled moonlight as they navigated the twisted alleyways. When approaching the city gate, he found a lot of city patrol guards. Obviously, there is a way to escape through the gate.
"I don't know if Palt or they're gone!" Irus muttered to himself.
He watched the group of guards from afar, and the people who left the city were simply interrogated, obviously checking the traces of orc slaves. In the morning, the Colosseum was not big or small, after all, it was murder and blood! This was not a city-wide ban, and caravans and mercenaries were still free to enter and exit.
Not far from Irus was a dilapidated inn, where a groom with a torch was preparing to feed the horses. He first put the torch on the pillar, and put the artemisia grass in the stone trough one by one.
This small discovery made Irus's eyes light up, and he immediately remembered it. When the groom had finished everything, he was about to take his torch and prepare to go back to his room to rest. Suddenly, a great sword came through his chest, and the groom did not even give a shout before he died, but fell to the ground, never needing him to feed the horse again.
Irus first took half of the artemisia from the wagon and buried Katis in the wagon. Then he put the artemisia grass around the hotel, picked some flammable places, and stuffed some more artemisia grass by the way.
Irus drove the carriage to a shadowy spot on the opposite side of the alley. He said to the carriage, "Katis, I'm going to set fire to that inn, and I'm going to lure those trainees away, and you stay here first!"
Irus sneaked back to the inn on a moonlit night, plucked a torch from the post of the stable, and ignited a pile of artemisia grass.
When Irus had done everything, he shouted, "It's on fire! It's murderous! There seems to be a group of orcs here!"
A patrol soldier looked at the hotel where the fire had started: "There is a group of orcs, let's go and have a look! It is said that this group of slaves has robbed them of their armor and weapons!
When a group of patrol soldiers hurried past the city gates, a carriage loaded with artemisia grass quietly left the city gates.
Irus picked some deserted paths, and Irus sat on the chariot to drive the carriage, while Katis lay asleep in the artemisia grass.
Irus stirred up his thoughts as the carriage jolted!
"This has just crossed over, and killing people doesn't count! I even opened meat once! Although this orc looks ugly, he can't hold up the ability of the murder weapon under his crotch! If Huang Qiang had such a murder weapon in the past, he would not be able to easily crush those European and American dick men with the strength of one person!" Thinking of this, Irus no longer complained about the ugly appearance of the orc, but felt a strange passion burning.
Just as it was about to dawn, Irus came to the foot of a mountain whose name he had scavenged for all his memories. It's a long way from Cantel City, so there shouldn't be any more danger. Irus found a dead tree and tied the horse's reins.
"It's still early, let's sleep with Katis in my arms!" Irus took off his armor and fell into a deep sleep with Katis in his arms.
When he awoke, it was already noon! The seaweed roasted by the blazing sun was piping hot. Cutis sat on a stone in the shade of a tree, not knowing what she was thinking. There was a sound of squirming in his stomach, and Irus felt a little hungry again.
He jumped out of the carriage and prepared to find something to eat to fill his stomach first. He was excited when he saw several nests on the forks of the trees in the distance. In a few leaps, Irus climbed up to the treetops, and when he looked closely, there were six or seven unhatched eggs in the nest.
Irus cut off two dead branches with his great sword at random, and began to drill wood to make fire, with high-speed friction, the dead wood gradually rose into smoke, Irus put some artemisia grass on it, and the artemisia grass was gradually ignited.
Irus put a few eggs in it, and filled the flames with handfuls of artemisia grass. After about ten years of planting, Irus plucked a few steaming eggs from the dead branches.
"Katis, come here!"
Katis moved over with broken steps.
"Are you afraid of me?" asked Iros.
Katis nodded slowly.
"It was the Beast God who had sex with you yesterday, and the real Irus is very pure. Here you go, it's two baked eggs! Eat them while they're hot!"
Still silent, Katis took the eggs and skinned them.
"If you're still not happy, I'll send you back to the Hills of Heros in a while. In recent times, you have been with the pure Irus. Eat quickly! When you are full, you will have strength!"
"Is that true?" asked Katis as she was skinning.
"Of course, Iros's ambition is the mountain, the sea, how can you pester a woman and not let go!"
"But you're not pure!" said Cutis in a whisper.
"Are you questioning the Beast God?" said Irus, deliberately with a dark face.
"I don't believe your nonsense!" Cutis muttered again.
"You can take it all as a good memory! Maybe your relationship with me will one day become your proudest capital. Irus said.
"I just want to get back to Hilos as soon as possible, with my sister and my family!" said Cutis earnestly.
Irus, who was gnawing on a bird's egg, suddenly lit up and asked, "You still have a sister, how old are you?"
"Hmph, ignore you!" said Cutis, turning her back and eating her eggs.
After eating five eggs the size of a steamed bun, Irus finally suppressed the dizziness of hunger.
"The carriage is placed here, you and I are in the mountains, this is the human world after all, and it is very unsafe. Irus put his armor back on, and with a swing of his great sword, he cut the reins of the horse, and then another sword slashed at the horse's buttocks, and the horse ached, and with a loud neigh, the horse ran away with the wagon.
Irus led Katis towards the unknown mountain. The mountain is steep and steep, and its tip is hidden in the mist. Irus opened the way with his great sword, cutting through thorns and dead branches, and slowly moved forward. When I came to a dense forest in the mountains, I heard the sound of water not far away, and it was supposed that there was a stream ahead.
The two searched for the sound of the water, and sure enough, they found a crystal clear stream not far away, and Irus ran over and poured a belly of water with his mouth against the stream.
"Come and drink some water, too! We may have to hurry, and we must find a cave to spend the night in tonight." ”
Cutis walked over and drank the water from the stream in her little hand, while Irus looked up to see her surroundings. The chirping of some unknown birds makes the place quiet and deep.
"There's a cave there, let's go and have a look!" Irus walked ahead with his great sword.
When the two approached, they found that it was only a shallow cavern, and that some kind of beast should have inhabited it before. There are still some faded animal hairs stuck to the cave walls, and it is not difficult to conclude from this.
"Let's settle here for now! It's close to the water source!"
"Then let's go collect some dry leaves!" said Katis.
"Well, let's go, pick some wild fruits by the way, didn't you get caught picking herbs before?, then you should know some valuable herbs?" asked Irus.
"I'm just an apprentice in apothecary, and I don't know much!"
"It's okay! as long as you can tell if it's poisonous or not!"
The two searched for some edible wild fruits, and Irus wrapped them around his shoulders with his cloak, and gradually the two of them walked into the mountains.
"Come and see, this is the Dream Grass for making psychedelic potions!" Katis plucked the grass branches with some excitement.
"Here! here! This is the blue grass that can increase the flow rate of the fighting qi!"
"It seems that you Fawkes are really used to living in the mountains, and you know so many herbs!" Irus praised.
Boom! The sound of a rockfall sounded in the distance!
"There seems to be a battle ahead! you hide first, and I'll take a look!" Irus admonished.
"Be careful, too!" said Katis as well.
Irus didn't expect Cutis to say this, but he felt a hint of warmth from Cutis's words. Irus glanced back at Cutis, and continued to feel for the sound.
When Irus quietly climbed over a stone wall, he found that it was actually two demonic beasts fighting.
Both monsters Irus knew each other, one was a tyrannical ape and the other was a golden-threaded python. These two demonic beasts are much more powerful than those demonic beasts in the Colosseum, and they should be fourth-order or fifth-order. According to the division of strength between the demonic beasts and the martial artists, these two demonic beasts should have reached the realm of martial artists.
The first to third order demonic beasts correspond to the Dou Qi Warrior Realm, and the fourth to sixth orders correspond to the Martial Arts Realm. The Martial Venerable Realm corresponding to the seventh-order Demonic Beasts, and the Martial Saint Realm corresponding to the Tenth-Twelfth Order. The thirteenth order is a divine beast, and the corresponding fighting spirit level is the martial god realm, and when it comes to that kind of cultivation, it is like a dragon-like existence, and it can collapse mountains with brute force.
Orcs are born with divine power, and orcs who become adults are equivalent to the strength of the human warrior realm without cultivating. If you can awaken your bloodline and then condense your fighting spirit, you can advance to the realm of martial artists. Although each major rank is divided into seven small stages, the higher you go, the more you go, the more you can make up for these gaps.
A martial artist of the third stage of the martial arts realm, because of the will to fight or the factors of equipment, it is possible to kill the martial artist of the sixth stage of the martial arts realm. But that's all, it is absolutely impossible for a martial artist of the Martial Master Realm to kill a martial artist of the Martial Venerable Realm, unless there is a special reason.
