Chapter 015: Blood Wasteland
Led by Paladin, the three of them came to an inconspicuous hut in the corner of the camp and met the two barbarians. After Paladin's introduction, the two learned that the two barbarians, one nicknamed Howling Wind, were LV6's Roaring Barbarians, and the other was named Axe, who was currently LV4's Killing Barbarian.
Surprisingly, the two barbarians were quite good-looking, and they both had unique tattoos on their faces. Probably living in the cold and harsh Arret Plateau all year round, they have all developed a body of steel and iron under the tempering of the cruel environment, among which Howling Wind holds a classic combination of hand axe and round shield, wearing chain chain armor, and Ex holds a huge two-handed giant axe, both of them are wearing animal skins and grass weaving costumes full of barbarian style.
After a brief introduction to himself, the most charismatic apprentices were recruited. The apprentice went straight in, picked out the intention, and bluntly said that he wanted to form a team to conquer the evil cave, and invited the two to join. When the two barbarians heard this, they asked:
"If the loot is sold, how will it be distributed?"
In the face of such a pointed question, the apprentice still had a faint smile on his face, and said as a matter of course: "Of course, it is distributed according to the contribution." Those who are strong will naturally make outstanding contributions, thus gaining the right to prioritize the selection of loot. ”
Xiao Feng suppressed his bell-like voice and asked rhetorically, "Contribution is difficult to quantify, everyone has a different definition of contribution, and of course our tough barbarians can't be worse than the two of you. ”
Seeing that it was difficult for him to convince these two stubborn guys, the apprentice was too lazy to talk nonsense. He then glanced at Su Hao, Su Hao understood, and said casually in a light tone:
"Is it really hard to quantify battlefield contributions? And you say, you barbarians are stronger than us? Hehe, I don't think so. ”
Hearing someone refute their point of view, the two barbarians immediately turned their heads and looked at Su Hao, and the latter directly activated the mimicry function of the liquid metal memory mask, and the liquid metal faded like a tide, revealing the true face under the mask.
After seeing Su Hao's true face, the two barbarians immediately recognized this guy, and then couldn't help but stand up, showing an expression of disbelief and surprise, and muttered:
"You, you were personally received by the purple-robed priestess Akara... One of the two people to win the first place in the Battle of the Fortification? ”
Hearing this, Paladin was also a little incredible, and he didn't expect that he would be so lucky.
Su Hao nodded, then stood up, calmly looking at the two Arret barbarians who were a head taller than him, but he didn't feel like a dwarf at all. He asked rhetorically, "Since you think it's hard to quantify your contributions, how did I get to the top of the battlefield?" If you think you're better than me, why didn't you stand out in this battle for the city? ”
Faced with Su Hao's point-to-point question, the two barbarians were speechless, just hesitated for a moment, and immediately agreed to the apprentice's invitation and became a member of the temporary team.
The barbarians are the most powerful people, and they have no good virtue of caring for the weak, on the contrary, they despise the weak and the weak, and in their opinion, the strong are respected as a natural law of rank.
And the reason why they chose to accept the apprentice's invitation was only one reason, that is, they knew very well that their strength was not enough to destroy the evil cavern after going deep into the Blood Wasteland, of course, they had to hold on to the thigh of this camp guarding the first place in the battlefield.
After subduing these two barbarians with strength, this temporary team with Su Hao and the apprentice as the backbone took shape, and after some division of labor, it was finally decided that Su Hao would serve as the temporary captain and command the battle.
After the most critical command problem was solved, the five men immediately turned east, stood in front of the two heavy gates on the east side of the camp, and motioned to the guard Rog to turn the iron rope and winch to open the door panels.
When the two heavy gates slowly opened with a piercing creaking sound, the strange team of five people left under the eyes of the defenders of the city, and went deeper into the depths of the bloody wasteland little by little, until there was no longer their backs in the sight of the Rogers.
A burly keeper looked at the backs of the five people who disappeared at the end of his sight, and said with a faint smile: "Hehe, five people dare to go deep into the blood wasteland, and they are really a kind of man." Kyoko, what do you think? ”
Rogge, who is known as Kyoko, is not as fierce as her colleagues, on the contrary, she is a very weak-looking girl, with a typical oriental beauty and short black straight hair, beautiful peach blossom eyes that seem to be shining, and a childish feeling on her face that is not in keeping with her profession. If it weren't for the standard Rog leather armor outfit, no one would associate her with a brutally trained Rogge warrior.
She didn't answer the man's question, she was reminiscing, recalling a back that kept coming to mind.
When the elite-level Fallen Demon with its dandruff hardening and flame-enhanced blessings was about to hack him to death, it was the man who pushed himself away and blocked the fiery blade with a fleur shield!
It's a pity that he turned his back to himself, leaving only a towering back.
And now, the back of one of the five people who left had seen it in the defense of the city.
It's that person, the one who saved himself.
She silently looked at the end of her vision, even if it was just a barren land and oppressive haze, but that didn't stop her from looking there.
…
The five of them walked in the wilderness, looking at the barren soil mixed with blood under their feet, breathing the dirty air mixed with a touch of blood, and their vigilance was raised to the apex little by little. This bloody wasteland is so vast, everywhere is filled with a haze-like gray mist, which makes the view slightly obstructed, and the color of the earth is too monotonous, at a glance it looks like a wasteland after the cataclysm, neither life nor firepower, although there are still one or two weeds that break through the shackles of the wasteland through the nourishment of blood, and are unyielding, but the dark gray color of the grass leaves also gives people the feeling that it seems to wither at any time.
After walking for about ten minutes, at this moment, the guardian knight Paladin suddenly said:
"Be careful, I hear rats barking."
Su Hao then motioned for the team to stop and listened intently.
At 2 o'clock, there was a rustling sound, which was indeed similar to the chirping of a mouse, but it was relatively low, and it was really difficult to detect if you didn't stop and listen.
Immediately afterwards, numerous cracks suddenly opened in that small barren piece of land, and then a large number of clods of earth were pushed up, and a fat mouse the size of a calf came out. Its body is not small, but its head is extraordinarily large, and its body is grayish and dirty, and it is covered with thick and long spikes, and its nostrils are constantly moving, as if it smells a smell, and then twists its body, facing Su Hao, and then shoots out a fast and powerful spike!
This is... Hard-haired mice!
Su Hao's eyes were quick, he raised the iris shield on his right arm, and bounced off the spikes shot by the hard-haired mouse, but he still left a not-so-shallow dent on it, which shows the shooting strength of the hard-haired mouse!
Paladin, the knight of the guard, with a quick eye and a short sword in hand, stepped forward quickly, and nailed it to the ground with a single sword!
