Chapter 197: Ogre Clan!
"Forward!"
"This research is about the future of Nimbala!"
On Nimbala, there are similar ruins to Elvon Island, but they are not as complete and large - in fact, before Nimbala was founded, research on the ruins had already begun, and it was thanks to the knowledge of the ruins that Nimbala was established.
By now, the ruins of Nimbara have been thoroughly studied by the archmages and their apprentices, who are in dire need of new research materials and research locations in order to gain more knowledge—Elvon Island is the new best place for the archmages of Nimbara to study.
However, the new research site that the archmages have found already has its own master, a horde of ogres.
............
The situation in the Nerainsel Islands is similar to that of the wastelands near the roof of the world - if you want to take ownership of a fertile territory, you must defend it against the attacks of other powers, and only then the other powers will recognize your ownership of the territory.
Otherwise, no one will bother at all by unilateral announcements.
Just as Ilvon's ownership of Ilvon Island was only secured after the complete defeat of the Nightpupil tribe - and at this moment on Elvon Island, the ogres have already held off some of the forces' attacks on their territory, and they are beginning to claim their ownership, and if no other forces attack, it will be counted as a tacit acquiescence.
And then, the army of Nimbala came!
"Kill!"
The warriors of Nimbara, who are mostly humans, are now wearing enchanted armor and are fighting ogres who are taller than their two heads and hold giant wooden clubs.
And in the back of the Ogre Array, Ron quietly found the Ogre's Battle Banner in the grass, or the Territory Mark - it was a circle of rocky piles with a thick wooden frame in the middle, on which hung the bones of humanoids - representing the Ogre's territory from here, and the Ogre had all the rights to this territory, including but not limited to hunting, digging, planting, etc.
And all humanoids that break into this mark will be treated as prey!
"Looks like there are too many ogres in this group!"
Looking at the ogre in front of him who was fighting with the warriors of Nimbala, Yas's face was quite serious.
Only a certain number of ogre tribes would erect battle flags to signify their ownership of the land, and behind him, Sonia would already mount a horse.
"Ding!"
The sharp blades collided with the Ogre Banner with a crisp crash - the trees that were apparently capable of acting as the Ogre Banner were also extremely hard, not inferior to ordinary steel. The first time the battle flag was not broken, Sonia immediately launched a second slash - this time the blade was painted with red flames, so the battle flag fell to the ground with a bang, and the bones hanging on it were scattered.
............
"Quite an unwise move!"
In the grass, Ron shook his head - the Ogre Battle Banner was the symbol of the Ogre's territory, and the Ogres of the same tribe were obliged to maintain it and protect it from being knocked down or destroyed.
At this moment, Sonya's actions had obviously angered the ogres who were fighting against the army of Nimbala, their pupils suddenly became bloodshot, the muscles up and down their bodies tensed and expanded, and then they let out an amazing roar from the huge jaws full of sharp teeth!
Madness!
"What's going on!"
"Ah, my legs, my legs!"
Lacking experience in fighting ogres, Nimbala's warriors were immediately disrupted by the frenzied ogres, some of whom were knocked down by heavy wooden clubs, while others were forced to retreat to the outskirts of the ogre's territory - in this case, the Nimballa army had to use more advanced combat power.
"Pegasus Knight!
A veritable decapitation!
Following Yas's order, behind him, a team of Pegasus knights immediately commanded the Pegasus under his crotch to flap their wings and fly gracefully into the sky, then turned around and swooped down.
"Whoosh!"
These Pegasus Knights' weapons are specially crafted, with the addition of lightweight Mithril, and resemble a curved-bladed broadsword with its head bent sixty degrees - strange to look at, but surprisingly effective.
With a single dive, the heads of the twelve ogres fell from their bodies, and a foot-high fountain of blood sprayed reddening the battlefield ground—a third of the number of ogres that Nimbala's warriors faced.
And after three consecutive waves, there was no more complete ogre in front of Nimbala's army.
"Forward!"
With the wounded warriors in place, Yas and Sonia led the army in the direction with a serious expression - the archmage was immersed in his own research, but before landing on Elvon Island, he had already guided the army in the direction - as long as they went in that direction, they could find the main body of the ogre tribe.
............
The further you advance to the island land, the more traces of the ogre's activity become.
Ron's followers, Nimbala's army, widened their eyes when they saw the massive ogre activity - and Nimbala's army reacted by freezing their hands and feet.
Elvon Island is a cone-shaped island - at the top is the massive Ocean Tower left over from an ancient civilization, and below it are the rest of the ruins.
At this moment, Ron saw the third ring of walls that surrounded the entire ruins, which the ogre had built using some of the materials removed from the ruins, as well as rocks and logs he had found, and built houses made of thick logs behind the walls.
Ron even saw some black smoke rising from the furnace, and apparently in the city walls, either ogres had learned to craft weapons, or slaves had been captured by ogres at work.
"Ron, look!"
Odom's eyesight was better than Ron's—just one glance, and the wise man immediately saw the ogre warriors patrolling the walls.
It was a heavily armed ogre warrior with a heavy prismatic iron rod in his hand, and heavy iron discs hanging from his chest and back as armor - both the iron rods and the iron discs were quite rough, as if the molten iron had been melted and cast directly, without even removing the burrs.
"Shhh
"It seems that there is a lot of iron ore on Elvon Island!"
Seeing this heavily armed ogre, Ron immediately gasped - the ogre has a physique that is several times stronger than a human being, but dozens of times, coupled with heavy armor protection, and a powerful weapon in his hand, his combat power is definitely skyrocketing!
As Ron gasped, Odom's mouth spat out another layer of meaning in the ogre armor.
"There are highly intelligent ogres in this ogre tribe!"
"I don't know if it's the caster, but I think we need to be cautious!"
"It's better to have a partner!"
