Chapter 286: The Bullhead Tribe (Part II)
In the era before the fall of the gods, the Bimon had hundreds of races, including terrestrial and subterranean races, and in fact many terrestrial races gradually developed from the subterranean races, and the subterranean minotaurs were an important ethnic group in ancient Bimon.
However, with the rise of the four ethnic groups on the mainland, Beamon and the underground ethnic groups gradually cut off their ties, although both sides share the same faith, but they have taken different paths in terms of inheritance.
Despite this, both the continental Beamon and the Underground Beast Clan share a common bloodline.
So hearing Leon's words, Xiling said almost without hesitation: "Then we should help them!"
For thousands of years, the Beamon Temple has always identified the Underground Orcs as a member of Beamon, and this idea naturally has the most direct impact on Xiling, who is a priest.
But Leon thought more.
"The underground minotaurs are also God's people..."Leon smiled, "We have a duty to us when they are persecuted by the Black Elves, but the Bloody Tribe is not easy to mess with, and we cannot act recklessly." ”
"My idea is that we should get in touch with the Minotaur tribe first, understand their current situation first, and then make a decision," he said, pointing to the map. ”
"If there is not much danger, I think the operation of rescuing the Minotaur tribe is the best test for you, and the help to your compatriots will definitely win the praise of the Beast God!"
Xi Ling's eyes lit up, and the expressions of the Templar Knights became much more serious, their power was completely dependent on the favor of the gods, and anything that could please the gods was worth the risk.
"Okay!" Xiling nodded and said, "You decide!"
At the exit of the secret passage, the Thunderbeast warriors quickly set up a makeshift camp with a defensive surname.
This exit is located on the side of a mountain range, and the dense forest forms a good shelter, and hundreds of warriors can easily hide in it.
Leon did not go to the Minotaur tribal camp with great fanfare, because the other party was in a state of war with the Bloody Tribe, and once the black elves discovered their traces, they would inevitably attract a siege, and it was likely that the rescue would fail and they would catch themselves.
He assembled a team of seven people, including Templar Knights such as Xiling and Lex, who were small but extremely powerful.
For safety, Leon asked Xiling and Lex to change their outfits, and the white robes of the priests and the armor of the Templars were too conspicuous in the dark underworld.
Fortunately, Leon was prepared before entering the Dark Lands, Xi Ling put on a black robe and a cloak, and the armor of the Templar became the standard black armor of the Thunder Beast Warrior, which was enough to walk in the Black Forest.
After the modification was completed, the seven-man team immediately set off.
Thanks to the memories of the Black Elf Wizard, Leon was very familiar with the surrounding terrain, and he led the team deep into the forest, around the plains as far as the eye can see, and finally into the mountain jungle surrounded by mountains.
Along the way, the team didn't encounter many magical beasts, which was very different from the situation in the cave passage, which was of course due to the small number of people, but more importantly, this area was the activity territory of the black elf bloody tribe.
On the other hand, the dark power that filled the cavern passages had a strong oppressive effect on the priests and Templars of the Light Divine Line, but in the underworld, this oppressive force became extremely weak.
The dark forces in this world are deep and majestic, without the slightest evil, and have the same elemental power as the surface world.
However, the absence of Warcraft does not mean that this area is a haven of peace and tranquility.
Burst!
Crimson blood splattered a few steps away!
The sharp tiger tooth dagger silently slashed her throat, and the black elf warrior's eyes bulged out and opened her mouth violently, but before she could let out a scream, a powerful big hand covered her mouth in advance, stifling the last trace of her voice.
Leon stood behind her, leaning his lifeless body into his arms like a gentle lover, and the sentry of the Black Elf tribe was quickly dragged into the tall grass.
A moment later, Leon emerged from the grass and beckoned to the hiding spot behind him.
Xi Ling and the others appeared.
The unlucky Dark Elf wizard was one of the best in the Bloody Tribe, wielding extremely high tribal power and being the mastermind behind the attack on the Minotaur Tribe.
The reason why she appeared in the cave passage was because she needed to personally collect some special plants that were only available on the ground to configure the materials for performing the strong ** technique, and the encounter with Leon and the others was completely accidental.
And after Leon gained her memory, he naturally knew the deployment of the bloody tribe well, so he was able to easily avoid the eyes and ears of the black elves and sneak to the place where the two sides were fighting.
About a few hundred paces ahead is a valley, the entrance to which stands a high wall, behind which you can clearly see the arrow tower, and a black and red battle flag waving in the wind.
That's where the underground Minotaur Grim tribe is located.
Now fierce battles broke out in the valley camp, and a large number of black elf archers fired wave after wave of arrows in front of the wall, and from time to time colorful spells bombarded the walls.
Hundreds of minotaur warriors relied on the city walls, shielded themselves from the rain of arrows, and counterattacked the black elves with their spears.
Leon's eyes were extremely keen, and even from a long distance, he could see the appearance of these underground beasts.
These minotaur warriors have bronzed skin, burly and muscular, strong limbs and curved and sharp horns, and all of them wear leather armor and tomahawks tied to their backs, even if they are hit by a bow and arrow, they are definitely natural warriors.
However, their bravery did not give them an advantage in the assault and defense of the walls, as the Black Elf archers were quick to react and move quickly, often avoiding the spears before they could be attacked.
The loud battle song never stopped, it was the shaman among the minotaurs fighting against the black elf wizards, resisting the spells of the other party and fiercely fighting their own warriors.
Their war songs are extremely rugged and heroic, and even from a long distance, they still have a shocking melody.
The Templars clenched their weapons tightly, their eyes blazing with flames.
"Don't be impulsive, now is not the time for us to join the fight..."Leon, of course, understood what they were thinking, and hurriedly said: "I'll rush in alone first, and then find a way to pick you up." ”
Lex was taken aback: "That's too dangerous, let me do this mission!"
His strength surpassed Leon by one level, and he was a Templar himself, so he was naturally more sure of breaking through the black elf defense line and entering the valley than Leon.
"Lord Lex, your mission is to protect Priest Xiling..."Leon waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm sure enough." ”
"Stay here and wait for my news!"
Without waiting for an answer, Leon turned around and quickly dived into the bushes, quickly disappearing without a trace.
The Templars looked at each other, not expecting Leon to do what he did, while Xiling shook her head, a hint of worry in her eyes.
Leon swept across the jungle like a ghost, he put away his red-blooded heavy sword, and only in his right hand he held the tiger stabbing saber behind his back, his body was as light and agile as a tanuki, and he almost silently leaped and fell.
He was certainly not stupid enough to rush directly to the mouth of the valley where the two sides were fighting, but to go around the ridge to the left of the valley.
It was also not an easy road to follow, and the steep mountain walls formed a natural line of defense, which ordinary people could not climb up at all.
However, this did not stump Leon in the slightest, after breaking through to the peak of the fourth level, his strength has increased considerably, and he has become more and more handy in the use of soul power, and no matter how steep the mountain is, it cannot stop his footsteps.
But that doesn't mean he can sneak into the valley without any problems, as the Minotaur tribe also has fortifications on the mountains, and some powerful black elves attack the Minotaur warriors stationed in the mountains.
It's just that these black elves didn't expect that Leon would attack from behind them.
"Who?
A dark elf archer lurking in the woods was keenly aware of the anomaly, and she turned and pulled her longbow away, the arrow pointing straight at Leon, who had just appeared ten paces away.
"Bloody killing!"
The archer was stunned, for Leon didn't look like a member of their tribe.
At the moment when she hesitated slightly, four edges with thunder rays shot out, instantly penetrating her body.
Not only did Leon know the commands of the Black Elf army, but with the Aura of Wisdom, he was able to use the language of the Black Elves, and the combination of the two killed the astute archer.
However, the archers' screams alarmed their nearby companions, who immediately discovered Leon's presence and immediately attacked with red eyes.
The surname Leonso, who had exposed his traces, no longer hid, released his soul armor, pulled out the red blood heavy sword, and rushed straight forward.
The Black Elves, as angry as they were, were not fools, and no one chose Leon's melee combat, using their speed and jungle advantage to constantly harass Leon with feathered arrows in an attempt to consume his soul armor.
Dealing with the soul armor protection of the Beamon beast clan, the black elves have a lot of experience.
But Leon had no intention of entwining with them, and rushed straight to the Minotaur fortress high up in the mountains.
The Minotaur mountain fortifications resembled small fortresses, made of solid rock, and were garrisoned by hundreds of warriors and shamans, firmly holding this strategic point.
The battle between Leon and the Black Elves in the mountains and forests naturally attracted the attention of the Minotaurs, but they had no way of judging Leon's identity, so they naturally dealt with it as an enemy first.
So when Leon rushed up, several pike guns were immediately fired at him.
