Volume 2 Quildan Raiders Chapter 23 Digestion
Unlike harpies, who can be understood as sadistic at all, winged banshees look much more pleasing to the eye than their close relatives, at least their exposed tits are comparable to the breasts of young human women, and their feathered hair like a flower crown is more in line with the human aesthetic view of young women. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf you ignore the winged hands covered with bright feathers, the lower body, and the claw-like feet, in terms of appearance, the winged banshee is still more suitable for domesticating slavery to satisfy human vanity.
Compared to the harpy's dangerous seductive song, the winged banshee's attack is much safer. In addition to their swooping, razor-sharp claw attacks, the winged banshees are born with a spell attack. The properties of its spell-like spells can be seen at a glance from its feathers: Wind Blade for Green Feather, Lightning, and Fireball for Pink Feather......
Now, more than six hundred adult winged banshees followed their queen, almost pouring out of their nests, like a galloping cloud, from the western sky to the sight of the crusaders.
Originally, the winged banshees were more accustomed to hiding in the shadows of mountain peaks and then launching a surprise strike on their targets. But the Glimmer Wilderness really doesn't have what it takes to play such a tactic. Moreover, at Fabiga's instigation, the Queen of the Winged Banshees believed that now was a good opportunity to attack, and that as long as they caused some chaos without their hands, the rebellion unleashed by the newly captured orcs would be enough to inflict heavy losses on the Crusaders.
They didn't even have to choose a dangerous dive attack, they could just cast spell-like spells on the Crusader team high in the air. Anyway, they didn't need to care about the accuracy of the attack, let alone whether they would accidentally injure the orcs, what could be safer than at an altitude of six or seven hundred meters that the bow and arrow couldn't reach?
Many people have seen this 'colorful cloud', and many people clearly know that these flying creatures like to torture people's evil nature. However, no order was given to halt the advance and go on the defensive. So, neither the Crusaders nor the Orcs, no one stopped. Including Li Yun himself, he believes that a big reason for this situation is that his devilish majesty was still vivid to everyone not long ago.
"I seem to have overestimated the vigilance of the Crusaders!, or is it a conspiracy?" Fabiga, who was flying like a bird beside the Winged Banshee King, thought to himself as the Crusader team did not react, a little confused.
When they immediately came within ranged attack range of the winged banshees, the Crusaders still didn't react.
"Your Majesty, have you cloned all your warriors with an invisibility cloak? Fabiga said with a bit of mockery to the winged banshee king who wore the delicate jewel crown.
"No, there's a mage who looks like an elf using a spell, and she's using ...... Wind spells!?" The Winged Banshee King was equally puzzled by the enemy's performance. It's all too obvious stupid to use the wind spell on a winged banshee who is a good hand at harnessing the wind, and from the ground, from such a distance.
"Oh, our enemy may be insane, a mage who doesn't even seem to have Dafa qualifications, using an area spell like 'Hurricane', and at such a distance, I doubt the wind can blow off a gorgeous feather feather!" Fabiga continued to taunt.
"Leave him alone! let's teach these stupid enemies who dare to despise our Flying Feather Clan (self-proclaimed)!" the Winged Banshee King roared in her shrill voice.
It was the Messiah who cast the 'Hurricane' spell, and her purpose was simple, to send the dark gray dust in the small box in front of her into the sky. It wasn't anything difficult for her. The task was accomplished, and the fine, occasional sunlight-reflecting dust swept over the winged banshees with the help of the hurricane, and then dissipated without a trace.
Fabiga shook her head vigorously, "I'm not overestimating the vigilance of the Crusaders, but overestimating their intelligence!" This 'dust' attack, which even the blinds can't do, is like a thick-skinned rhinoceros piercing with a needle, and it is simply an insult.
The caution of the winged banshees caused them to hover in the air one after another, ready to cast spell-like spells, according to their predetermined plan. On the ground, countless orcs and crusaders looked in horror at the flying enemies in the sky that even the sun had blocked, and they were ready to dodge at any time......
Oh...... The roar like the roar of an evil dragon suddenly resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the powerful penetrating sound was like a giant hammer that instantly hit people's hearts, as if even people's souls were unconsciously trembling.
Then countless orcs found that their new devil leader was wrapped in translucent dazzling electric light, like a rippled blister, a beautiful electric light that made people shudder.
Boom! Like the thunder that exploded, like the earth collapsing, the sound of electric water bubbles bursting, and hundreds of thick lightning bolts being shot out at the same time was so earth-shattering.
It was as if the god of thunder was mighty, and it was as if the most beautiful super-giant fireworks had bloomed, blue, purple, and white...... The lightning filled everyone's vision in an instant, and for a moment, even the light of the sun was eclipsed.
These thick lightning bolts flew up the bodies of the winged banshees like writhing snakes, whether they were flying or hovering, whether they were resisting or dodging, no wing banshee could survive the blast that lasted for as long as 2 seconds, and the blackened, smoking corpses crackled and fell from the sky like hail, and the scene was absolutely spectacular.
The power of this blow, which was consumed in units of 1 drop of raw blood equivalent, was so intuitive and shocking that many orcs knelt down towards Li Yun without caring about their eyes burned by the strong light, and in their minds, Li Yun had become a real god and demon at this time. This thought made them feel much more at ease that they had become captives, and fighting with the gods, losing was inevitable!
When Fabiga saw the scene when Li Yun gathered electricity, his first thought was how far to run, how high to fly. The Black Flame Alliance has been fooled, and the enemy that the organization has to deal with is by no means something that a character like himself can defeat, and this Kezananta is already as powerful as the Black Flame Deacon who has a genuine magic weapon, and he must send this important news back.
However, it was too late, and even the Winged Banshee Queen had no way to escape, let alone a half-bucket of flying master like Fabiga.
Fabiga was also struck by the blast, because there was also a lot of dark gray dust left in his feather coat, which was a special metal powder, and it was natural for him to be locked by lightning. But Fabiga didn't die, the lightning wattle ring has a fairly high resistance and absorption ability to thunder and lightning, and he just feels sore and numb now.
Fabiga, who had fallen, tried with all his might to re-flapped his wings attached to his arms, and he didn't want to get in touch with the ground, which would only make his entrails a real flesh.
Before Fabiga's dying throes could bear fruit, an arrow with a ghostly roar arrived. Bang! A dull voice sounded, Fabiga was shot in the chest, his 'Wind Spirit's Spotted Feather Cloak' still had the effect of high-grade soft armor, and Li Yun's powerful arrow was bounced off and fell.
Fabiga wasn't much better, the arrow didn't enter the body, but the kinetic energy carried with it was transmitted. Although it was partially absorbed and transformed, Fabiga was shot by the arrow and broke three ribs, vomited a mouthful of blood, and moved several meters horizontally from his falling body.
At this time, Fabiga couldn't get rid of the fate of falling to the ground. Fortunately, there was someone who helped him, Alina! Shooting like a rainbow across the sky, Alina's graceful figure was full of tension and beauty after an explosion of strength. With a sharp foot knife, Fabiga's head was easily cut off, and it was detached from its body in the fall, flying away like a ball, and Fabiga was completely freed.
"What are you doing here, get up and hurry!" The body of the winged banshee over there swooped over the vast wilderness, but this Li Yun looked as relaxed as if he had just swatted a fly to death, and his questioning tone clearly told the orcs that their performance made him not very happy.
No one had any objections, and no one dared to have any objections, Li Yun's words were better than the king's orders, and the team continued to the south, and people didn't even take a second look at the winged banshees who were still showing off their might not long ago. People often don't pay much attention to losers, not to mention that they lose their lives so completely.
More than 1,000 people and a small convoy of people walked, and when they came back, there were more than 10,000 people, and the convoy was even fuller. Not only the defenders of the pass, the crusaders, and the people of the 33rd Column, but also the border residents of the pass town of Bennett burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm and came to see this miracle-creating team.
Having captured 10,000 orcs, this kind of thing has never happened in Nessreel, even in the nearly fifty years of history of the entire human kingdom. And with more than 1,000 human beings doing such a thing, it is a great victory that people have never dreamed of.
The people on the border are not like the inhabitants of the big cities, who greet the triumphant procession with countless colorful petals, they are simpler and more unpretentious, and when the procession crosses the pass, I don't know who shouts the slogan: "Long live mankind!" Then, more and more people join in the shouting of this slogan, until everyone shouts loudly with all their might: "Long live mankind!"
Although the number of people was far less than that of the people who saw Nesmail off when the Crusaders set out, the heartfelt cry resounded like a landslide and tsunami, and it shook people's hearts. Sincerity is undoubtedly the most contagious and touching thing, as if the prisoner suddenly got the long-desired freedom, the soldiers and people on the border, hand in hand, held high again and again, with their almost hoarse voices, with their incomparable enthusiasm, to express the years of depression in their hearts and respect for the crusaders.
Looking at the simple and weather-covered faces, the heartless cries of the listeners, and the praise that expressed their hearts, their eyes moistened, and their hearts became extremely warm in an instant, and the sense of mission and responsibility filled the hearts of the crusaders and soldiers.
This is the people we want to defend, to protect, to give them stability and happiness, just as we protect our brothers, sisters, aunts, and family members. This is one of the important reasons to take up arms and fight...... For the first time, the Crusaders experienced what it was like to be glorified sincerely.
"The man did it!" Parrick sighed, cocking his neck and taking a big sip of wine.
"Are we Knights Templar really just appendages of the Crusaders?" Sitting on Bardo's shoulder, Stowe seemed a little confused.
"Brother, it's just not as important as we thought, and it's too frustrating to say that the appendages!" said Bardo, corrected.
"It's a shame not to see how he did it!It seems to be fun to be with this guy!" Murala's big eyes flashed with curiosity and interest.
"I am more concerned about the attitude of the orcs, these unruly 'wolves of the wilderness' are now completely subservient to the strong, and it can be seen that they are very sober, which means that the man has hammered fear and hope into the hearts of these orcs at the same time. In this way, the Crusaders have not only received excellent labor, but also a fierce plundering force!" Cicero's slitted eyes flashed with a cigarette gun in his mouth.
"It's bad luck, it's singular again! It seems that since the merger with the Crusaders, our luck has not been good!" Thoroon is still the same demon statue that is about to die, holding his fingers like embroidery, pinching the last petal and blowing it gently on his soft lips, with an indescribably bewitching expression.
"If we don't do anything about it, this trip to Queldan will be meaningless. People will only remember the Crusaders led by darkness and completely ignore the Knights Templar of the Holy Light. Viano looked out at the sparkling stone wilderness to the north, and his face was solemn.
Alina, who was already approaching the heavy iron hoop gate of the pass, glanced at the Knights of the Templars in the city, "Master, you are too tolerant of the people of the Holy See, and my sisters and I can completely deal with the leaders of the Thirty-Three Columns. And those soldiers, except for the clergy, may be stronger than the Crusaders in individual strength, but in the battle against the Crusaders, even if the strength is equal, the loss will never be the Crusaders. They simply do not seem to have the need to exist and the qualifications to enjoy high treatment. ”
"For some, tolerance is a shackle, a shackle that comes from one's own heart. And I am polite to the people of the Thirty-Three Columns because of the Pope. The corrupt of the Holy See of Light is no longer something that can be saved by the true fruit, the whole system has festered, the Pope knows very well, if my estimate is correct, the Thirty-Three Vertical is a 'new branch' that the Pope is very concerned about, using the downward adjustment and release, the Pope has created an environment that is as unpolluted as possible for some people, and it is a rather interesting temper and test. ”
"Is it a test of the powerful darkness that is always standing around you?"
"So to speak. The Pope expects a lot from this force, or for some of those in it. I can feel his good intentions. ”
"What does the Pope want these people to get? a firm faith, a firm faith no matter what the odds?" asked Alina.
"Think deeper!" Li Yun reminded with a smile.
“...... These people can be in the 33rd Column, and if they can be here, there is no shortage of such a thing as firmness. ”
"Yes! In the other world there is a saying, 'Evil and cunning, by what means that the light will be overcome?' Is it bravery? No! Is it justice? No! It is more cunning than the enemy.' Darkness is always present in any world, otherwise the light would be meaningless. The relationship between light and darkness is a counterbalance rather than a destruction, and it is precisely these seedlings that the Pope wants him to recognize this point of. Dead-brained and only enemies, no matter how pious, are not qualified to take on great responsibilities. ”
"Then, what you are forcing you to do now is to prove that your Thirty-Three Columns are likely to suffer serious casualties on the road ahead, and this is not against the will of the Pope?"
"Luck and self-protection are also things to be tested, and if the person in power in the future is as delicate as a flower in a greenhouse, anyone will doubt that he will be able to hold out until the end of his reign. ”
"Is this a commission from the Pope?"
"It's a tacit understanding between the strong, we all need a reliable and capable army to support our own sky!" Li Yun looked at the southern sky, where the Pope was also looking north from the high Temple Mount.
By the time the orcs were taken to the Crusader camp, the fragrant meal was ready. However, it is not easy to eat this meal.
"Take off all your clothes, you filthy fellows!Go into the pool! Don't come up until you have washed out the undertones of your skin!" Under the supervision of the Crusaders, the orcs stripped naked and jumped into the prepared pool to wash themselves, and then a second pool next to it washed up......
Hygiene is a very important thing for the army, otherwise diseases such as plague alone can cause the army to be greatly reduced and collapsed.
The orcs seldom bathed, and even when a large army was assembled, it was only a matter of sprinkling some lime powder from time to time. But the crusaders are different, the appearance of the army is an important indicator, and those who can't do it will be served with a whip. Today, this tradition is carried over to the orcs.
"You must chew the Shuangmu fruit in your hands, in the future, it will be a must do every morning, maintain oral hygiene, otherwise your moth-eaten teeth will rot faster, not to mention eating meat, it would be good to drink porridge!"
"Long hair is not allowed, beards are shaved, and earrings and nose ornaments are also not allowed. You will be tattooed with a number on your shoulder, and that will be your name for a long time, and only those who have been granted citizenship for outstanding performance will be able to reuse their name. You don't have a name? When the time comes, the organization will give you an enviable name, much louder than a stone or a broken skin!"
"Nails that are too long must be cut off and trimmed frequently in the future. Even if you were to fight, you wouldn't need anything like that. Only women and beasts use their claws, and you will be true warriors. ”
"A wooden basin and a large spoon, this is your future eating tool, and if you lose or destroy the general's food, unless he is willing to accept the punishment of 10 lashes!" ......
It was no easy task to house such a large number of orcs, and the addition of orcs made the Crusaders effectively jailers. Armed with crossbows and swords, they had to take shifts to monitor the greenskins' every move.
From the next day, a new round of construction and production was in full swing. By the beginning of November, all the orcs had put on tailor-made cotton and leather clothing, and were no longer living in tents, but in stone and wood houses, clad in plaster. Although there are not large pieces of raw meat to eat as in the past, the food now tastes delicious, and there is no need to be hungry or full, and there is no need to hunt beasts for life.
Like the bison that has swallowed too much forage, it is time for the Crusaders to chew and digest. The cold has arrived, and it is a fool's choice to bring nearly 10,000 orc captives who have not yet fully stabilized to find a 'home' in the monster-infested wilderness. Therefore, Li Yun chose to spend the harsh winter here and move forward next spring.
Based on this starting point, the pack wagons became a transport line connecting the interior with the passes, most of which were handed over to Bukachi's newly expanded convoy. The orcs are all big eaters and need a lot of food to survive this winter. As for next year's spring famine, as long as the weather is suitable for the growth of plants in a large area, Li Yun, who has the water of eternity, does not think that is a problem.
The accompanying earth mages, led by the ancient elf Istoville, formed a geological survey team and surveyed thousands of square kilometers of land within the Philach Pass. No treasure was found or veins, but coal was found as an energy source for burning.
Truth be told, the world's renewable energy 'oilwood' is better than coal. This leathery plant is extremely widely distributed and grows at a rapid rate that changes almost every three days. Oilwood is burn-resistant, the temperature is high, and there is no soot pollution, it is simply an ideal fuel, but unfortunately, for the Crusaders, the source water does not quench the thirst, and there is not a single oilwood forest within a radius of thousands of miles from Villach. In the end, mining coal is far less time-consuming and cost-effective than transporting oil and wood, and besides, it is necessary to give the orcs some work to do, and the excess energy caused by idleness will only make them pick quarrels and provoke troubles or think about who to 'hey'.
The women of the orcs are the organizers of the defense of the orc tribe's camp, the makers of food, and the breeders of the next generation. Now, they are assigned to various production workshops to work with the human women under supervision. Delicate work can't be done at first, and there is no problem with such rough work as leathermaking, handling, bleaching and dyeing, and laying. The captured orc items need to be combed, rectified, and reprocessed to meet the Crusader usage specifications, and it is obviously not enough for the orcs to have just one set of clothes, not to mention that there are tents, bags, backpacks and other large and small items that are seriously out of stock, which is enough for the women to be busy for a while.
Orc children are purposefully segregated and controlled, and different age groups will have different methods of education. Li Yun did not expect these orc children to become knowledgeable figures in the future like human children, and Li Yun never wanted to see the wild nature of the fittest of animals disappear from them.
Just as a tame wolf cub will always be more ferocious than a dog cub, Li Yun needs them to have a 'sharp' side. Li Yun's purpose was simply to instill in them loyalty and a better fighting philosophy. He needed warriors, brave and obedient warriors, and in this sense, honest orcs were more suitable to be warriors than humans.
Standing still does not mean that the conquest of Queldan has not begun. In mid-November, the Wolf Cavalry unit led by the goblins officially became a new unit of the Crusaders and joined the battle group.
This 1,200-strong wolf cavalry infantry inherited the combat philosophy of the light assault team, like fire and wind, known for its speed and strong attack, excellent equipment and strict military discipline made the most bloodthirsty militants among these orcs several notches higher than the previous wolf cavalry team. As a feature, they also have their own handy - the nets and their new title 'Marauders'.
Li Yun's mission to the Marauders was simple: to use Villach as a base to carry out harassing, surgical strikes against the creatures of the Shimmering Stone Wilderness, and to protect the Scouts' in-depth reconnaissance of Queldan's and the exploration of the Mage Survey Group.
At the same time, the Knights of the Templars reacted, playing more hotter than the Marauders, often launching surprise attacks on the strongholds of various evil creatures after the early reconnaissance, and even penetrated as far as the central part of the Ansuha Plateau.
This winter has been the worst time ever for the creatures of the Glimmer Wilderness. As soon as the rumbling hooves sounded, they had to flee and hide, and the small team did not even dare to come out of the nest, so they could only starve.
On the other side of the kingdom of Nesser, the 'War of the Divine Tombs' launched by the alliance of the Three Kingdoms of the Northland also kicked off in the second heavy snow in December.
It is said that snow makes the world cleaner, but people ignore the dirt hidden under the white. The humans living on the continent of Salano finally ushered in the era of what later generations called the 'Twenty Years of Nightmares' in the largest snowfall ever recorded in the Northlands, and at this time, even our protagonist Li Yun did not realize that the beginning of the effect of the 'Rotten Seeds' was so unexpected.
