Chapter 80: Demon Dwarf
"Okay, I'm fine, just eat something......"
Lin Lei opened his eyes, stood up from the ground weakly but firmly, opened the space ring in an orderly manner, took out a magic cake the size of a human head and buried it in his head, and as the food fell to his stomach, his pale face gradually became normal.
Seeing Lin Lei slowly recovering, although everyone was surprised by his amazing appetite, they only felt funny, only the tall nurse looked at Lin Lei with bull's eyes in disbelief.
Before releasing the life magic, the injury must be detected, just now the nurse obviously felt that Lin Lei's internal organs were displaced, and the injury of the internal organs was the most difficult to get better, even if there was a life magician to shoot with all his might, it would take three or two days to get better, but after only one meal, Lin Lei actually basically recovered?
The nurse muttered in her heart, could it be that her life magic has advanced by leaps and bounds, and she has become a great magician like Dean Raleigh?
There is a certain danger in space teleportation, like Lin Lei, although it is not often encountered, but there is a possibility in theory, it is just unlucky, there is no need to make a fuss, the big war is coming, everyone did not take this little episode to heart.
The group left the teleportation array and came to a secluded place, and Johnnedy clapped his palms and motioned for everyone to gather.
"Now for the mission statement. Our primary goal this time is to get close to the basic situation of the three lost mining areas, and provide accurate information for the family reinforcements that will arrive two days later.
The demon dwarves don't need the magic crystal mine, so it is expected that they will evacuate after killing people to vent their anger and destroying all the facilities, but it is not ruled out that those sinister villains have other plans, so be careful and don't fall in love with a small group of enemies.
We are divided into three teams, the water god leads a team to scout the mining area on the left, the nurse leads a team, and the mining area on the right, Lin Lei and I are responsible for the mining area in the middle, and everyone responds to each other at any time.
The scope of the reconnaissance is twenty miles around the respective mining areas, and the overlapping areas are the responsibility of my team, and after 24 hours, whether they are found or not, they all converge at this point in the middle.
If you encounter a team that can't solve it alone, you will immediately retreat to the meeting point, and if you can't solve it with a team, you will retreat directly to the fortress.
Remember, you must ensure your own safety first, each and every one of you is the existence that I cannot afford to lose, a hundred times more precious than any information.
Here are the mission details, everyone takes a closer look, and if it's okay, we'll leave in twenty minutes. ”
Lin Lei took the information distributed by Johnnedy, opened it and read it carefully.
The Runic Forest in the Southern Regions resembles an irregular triangle from the map, with the top facing the Empire's military fortress, the Magic Eye Fortress.
The entire forest territory in the southern region is about thirty or forty thousand square kilometers, and the magic crystal mines developed by several families are all in the edge of the forest closest to the fortress, and the deepest place is only seventy or eighty miles, that is, about forty kilometers.
On the map, further into the Rune Forest, it is marked purple, which means that it is a very dangerous area, and only the Grand Mage can enter and explore.
There are a total of 23 mines on the map, 5 of which are the Cage family, 6 by the Bruce family, 6 by the Robles family, and 6 more, owned by the other 6 weaker families.
The mines where the Bruce family fell were the farthest away, located in the middle of the map, next to each other, within ten kilometers of each other.
From the fortress, it takes about two or three hours to reach the fallen mines along the road bulldozed out of the forest.
In addition to the introduction of forests and mining areas, the following is the information of the demon dwarves.
The Demon Dwarf is said to have evolved from a low-level magical beast called the Troll Rat in the Rune Forest.
The demon dwarf's sharp-beaked monkey gills, short and chubby, also confirmed this rumor, and the mount of their army is a troll rat that is half the height of a human adult.
Ordinary demon dwarves do not know magic, but their demonized bodies are not only powerful, but also have resilient skin, and are not only immune to most magic.
Normally, a single fireball spell can kill a normal human, but to kill a lowest-level demon dwarf, it takes at least three fireball spells.
The Demon Dwarves are an intelligent race that fights for all people, and all of them are soldiers, and they distinguish their combat levels by the fleshy beard at the corners of their mouths.
An ordinary demon dwarf, with three thin whiskers drooping at the corners of each side of his mouth, is considered a first-level warrior by human standards, and his combat power is about the same as that of a second-level human mage.
The six-bearded demon dwarf needs a third-level magician to contend with, followed by the nine-bearded demon dwarf, which can be defeated by a fourth-level magician, and the twelve-bearded demon dwarf requires a fifth-level magician to defeat.
Lin Lei converted it in his heart, which is equivalent to dividing the number of beards on the side of the demon dwarf by 3, plus 1, which is equal to the combat power of a human magician.
Of course, such a comparison of combat power refers to the use of equipment.
In fact, the combat equipment that humans can use is very powerful and abundant, while the equipment of the demon dwarves is very primitive, and it is still in the era of pure cold weapons, and the army also lacks effective offensive management methods, leaving the forest they are familiar with, and the demon dwarves cannot resist the indiscriminate bombardment of human magic in front of the human army.
However, these are all demon dwarves who are pure hand-to-hand combat, the elite of the real demon dwarves, are troll dwarves with more than twenty-four whiskers, their bodies are more than twice that of ordinary demon dwarves, reaching a height slightly higher than that of humans, and they are extremely flexible, jumping vertically like flying, and can spray demonic flames of various attributes in their mouths, and the attack distance is up to dozens of meters.
Even if it is a sixth-level great magician, it is not easy to defeat this kind of guy who has thick skin, is invulnerable, and is extremely flexible, but can fight in close combat and attack from a distance.
But their weakness is still obvious, that is, the lack of effective means of group attack. A level 6 mage can be troublesome to go head-to-head with a twenty-four bearded demon dwarf, but if the two mages work together well, they can destroy multiple troll dwarves.
Although the base of the demon dwarf is comparable to that of the human race, the vast majority of them are the color of the three-bearded goods, and even the six-bearded ones are not very common, as for the elite troll dwarves with more than twenty-four beards, they can be called one in ten thousand, otherwise, the human empire would have fallen long ago.
Lin Lei only scanned these materials briefly, and then set off with everyone to the nearby "Demon Eye Fortress".
"Demon Eye Fortress", the city is twenty meters high, the length and width of each kilometer, all built by the special Wujin boulder of the Xilian Mountain Range, the whole is as black as ink, such as a hideous giant beast at the entrance of the Xilian Passage, it is enough to garrison hundreds of thousands of soldiers in wartime, whether it is a demon dwarf or a demon beast army, if you want to invade the southern region on a large scale, you can only break through the "Demon Eye Fortress" first.
More than 100 years ago, the demon dwarves had invaded the southern regions through the Xilian Passage, and after the empire sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress it, they built this fortress with great wealth.
It's a pity that after the fortress was built, the demon dwarves have been at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Western Regions magic weapon army, in the past twenty years, the empire's magic weapons have developed rapidly, and they have won victory in the forest, and the demon dwarves have no time to take care of here.
After quelling the invasion of the demon dwarves, the empire reduced the garrison army year by year, in order not to make the fortress deserted, it leased most of the site to the nobles who developed resources in the magic rune forest to operate, and the empire became a "hands-off shopkeeper", as long as the rent was paid on time, the house was not demolished, and nothing else mattered.
The current "Magic Eye Fortress" has only one battalion of the Imperial Army, garrisoned by thousands of people, and the rest is leased to nobles to do warehouses and magic materials purchase business, as if it has become a small commercial town.
Before he officially entered the fortress, Lin Lei had already seen a long row of stalls at the door, all kinds of magical beast materials, rare or unknown mineral crystals, dazzling.
"These are mercenaries who hunt freely in the Talisman Forest......" Johnnedy pointed to the stall and casually introduced Lin Lei, who came for the first time, "They think that our purchase price is low, and they want to try their luck when they come out on their own, or sometimes they find something particularly rare, and they will also bring it here for public auction." ”
Speaking of this, Johnnedy's eyes were cold, and he looked at a messy pile of people not far away, with a fierce noise.
"This six-eyed stone centipede is obviously what our Bruce family wanted first, is it reasonable for your Robles family to come and raise the price?" An angry voice came from the crowd.
"What bullshit doesn't raise the price, if you don't have money, get out of the way. ”
In the crowd, a short man with his back to Lin Lei looked up at the sky arrogantly.
"Damn it, boss, them, right?" said the dragon beside Johnnedy grinned.
"Of course you have to do it......" Johnnedy also smiled sadly: "But it's not here, go inside, hehe, there is an opportunity, they have a hand in intelligence against us, so that we have suffered heavy losses, and recently they have been looking for our people in the fortress every day to stir up trouble, just to take advantage of our vitality and have no time to take care of it, and suppress us."
But I'm not so stupid, tearing my face with them here, not only does it not do any good, but I also have to record a crime in the clan elders' association, this kind of stupid thing, or leave it to my big brother who loves to be in the limelight. ”
PS: Yesterday a reader talked about the heroine, and here I would like to share some of my thoughts.
A lot of people seem to hate the likes of the stallion harem.,I actually don't like the kind of harem for the sake of the harem.,Stallions for the sake of the stallion for the sake of the stallion.,It looks too fake.。
But I didn't plan to write a single heroine in this novel, because it didn't fit the character I created.
Lin Lei is just a very ordinary earthling, he is not a good young man, the bad environment since he was a child, it is bound to make him not receive too much good education, his behavior, a part of the positive energy in human nature, and at the same time will not lack the dark side of human nature, of course, it will be based on positive energy, but this needs to grow slowly.
As the introduction says: Awaken in desire, cultivate the mind in killing, plunder the body and mind of beautiful women in love and hate, and compose an immortal legend in the sky between being lost and suddenly!
A novel of millions of words, there will definitely be more female characters in the book, just as there are countless women we meet in our lives, and if you are wonderful in this life, then the chances of meeting beautiful women are even more infinite.
But every female character will be an independent existence, determined by their identity, their character, judgment, and interests, they will not sleep with the male protagonist casually, but they will not deliberately turn a blind eye to the male protagonist, after all, even in the real world, a man with a very high status or power or ability, in the minds of most women, is very special and attractive.
Or they will be pushed down by the protagonist, or they won't, these are based on the character and plot development between the two, which happens naturally, and even some female characters, because of their different positions and interests, will hate the male protagonist very much, and cause a lot of trouble.
I write something, I hope it is logical in all aspects, of course, limited to the ability to express, or sometimes there will be far-fetched plots unconsciously, if so, I hope you will leave a message to correct.
If there is a single female protagonist, I feel that it is not logical for the male protagonist, so I don't want to write it like this. Because I am also a man, in that environment, with such a character, I only love one woman, and I have no desire for other beauties, I will definitely not be able to do it.
