Chapter 66: The Centaur Tribe
With the help of the barbarians, Abdul-Jabbar's team crossed the snowy mountains and entered the vast eastern prairies, however, with each pursuit, Esalivan found that her party was a little further away from the demon.
The speed of the Abyss Lord's progress is very fast, at first the team was only two days away from the demon, and then it had been stretched for five days when it was in the night woodland, and when it arrived at the Snow Mountain, it was even more than a week away by the demon, and now, the demon's trail stayed fifteen days ago, that is to say, the Abyss Lord had passed here half a month ago, if the demon continued to travel at this speed, Jabbar was likely to lose this monster.
But Asalivan didn't dare to say it, because Abdul-Jabbar was still hopeful and rational at this time, and if he told Abdul-Jabbar that the demon had gone away, then maybe this orc would be crazy?
"Axalivan, we've been walking on this grassland for two days, where is the demon, and how soon can we keep up with it?"
In the vast grassland, in addition to the wind blowing the grass and seeing the cattle and sheep, it is still the wind and the grass. Jabbar began to feel impatient, but among the three members of the team, only Asalivan knew how to track demons, and Abdul-Jabbar and Gelman were both laymen, or they were led by Asalivan. It's been more than half a month, tracking all the way, but there are only traces of those demons, footprints, charred dirt and fallen leaves, is there anything else besides this? Jabbar was impatient, but he couldn't say anything.
"Three days. If nothing else, we'll be able to find it in three days' time. ”
Esalivan walked ahead and replied categorically. However, at this moment, no one knew the worries in the heart of this human female mage. It only eased the anxiety and irritability in Jabbar's heart. After three days, another reason must be devised to guide Jabbar to continue calmly following the demon. Even if it's getting farther and farther away.
"Abdul-Jabbar, we seem to be in trouble. ”
Gelman seemed to sense something again, and the druid quickly transformed into a cheetah form, which was more conducive to running and attacking in such a vast savannah.
But what is that? Or what? There are enough monsters encountered along the way, some have fought, some have not, and now, what monsters are coming? Jabbar pondered, and couldn't help but clench the storm hammer in his hand again.
A few minutes later, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance.
Cavalry?
This was the first reaction of the three people.
But there can be no cavalry here, humans? What are humans doing here? Unless Leo is leading his knights to help? But that's not possible, hasn't he already gone to Telletham to do some reconciliation work? Even if he came overnight, he couldn't have arrived here so quickly.
Abdul-Jabbar pondered. A lot of information goes into the brain and filters it.
The Eastern Prairie is at least half a month away from Salk City, and it has been more than half a month since he set out from Black Cliff City, so it is almost impossible for the knights led by Leo to do this.
However, the mysterious force did not make Abdul-Jabbar and his party wait too long before appearing.
"Oh, there's a new species discovered. ”
Looking at the alien troops surrounded by wind and dust, Jabbar felt a pang of boredom. There are so many species in this world, humans, orcs, dwarves, elves, snowy mountain barbarians, werewolves, and now a group of centaurs. What is this going to do? Does every piece of land pass through have to be approved by the locals? Hmm.
"You, from here, get out. ”
Luckily, the creatures I encountered this time speak diplomatic language. The Centaur leader spoke first, and although his non-fluent diplomatic language sounded stiff and staccato, Abdul-Jabbar understood what he meant. The meaning is very simple, you have to get out of here immediately, immediately.
But it's going to take me time, and don't you ask for any reason?
Jabbar was depressed, this journey was obviously chasing demons, but along the way, it was like being driven away, and everywhere he went, he had to be driven away. Fortunately, the locals are not very reckless, not the kind that will start fighting as soon as they rush out.
"We just passed by and left right away. ”
Jabbar didn't speak, but Esalivan politely responded to the centaur leader.
Jabbar found that the group of centaurs were all strong, with powerful muscles extending from their legs to their chests, and their knife-like faces revealed the perseverance and tenacity of their own people.
Compared to the orcs, their bodies are taller, basically reaching a height of two meters six or seven, just like the Mills Snow Mountain barbarians they met before, they are all sparsely numbered, but their combat effectiveness is extremely terrifying.
"That orc, what's going on?"
The centaur leader turned his head and looked at Jabbar. That look in his eyes, as if he had a lifetime of hatred. At first, the centaurs thought that the orcs had captured the humans, but when they looked closer, they found that the orcs and humans were companions, walking through the grassland together, and carrying an elf, such a strange picture made the centaur family decide to run over to see what was going on.
"He's my friend. ”
Essalivan responded politely.
"Humans shouldn't be in the company of orcs, mage, and you'd better distance yourself from this orc. If you need help, we can get this orc out now. ”
The centaur leader spoke very politely, and it could be seen that he had a bitter hatred for the orcs and the centaur population. The reason why he didn't kill Abdul-Jabbar as soon as he appeared was because he wanted to hear what this human had to say.
But with such rude and hostile words from the centaur, Jabbar couldn't help it.
"What's wrong with the orcs? Are the orcs inferior to you four-hoofed monsters?"
Jabbar's eyes narrowed, the hammer in his hand reflecting a dazzling golden glow in the sunlight.
It is clear that the centaur leader also noticed the warhammer in the hands of the orcs. This legendary god-level weapon.
From the Night Forest to the Mills Snowy Mountains to the Eastern Prairie. There are few people on the way, and the news is relatively closed, so the werewolves in the night forest still know about the orcs teaming up with humans to fight the undead, but when they arrive in the snowy mountains, those barbarians already know very little, if it weren't for the common enemy, Jabbar guessed that those barbarians were also unfriendly to themselves.
Up to now, the Eastern Prairie, the entire prairie is almost blocked by the Mills Mountains, for a long time, no one has climbed over this unattainable snow-capped mountain, and no one has transmitted information about Middle-earth here, so these centaurs, of course, don't know about the epic battle that happened in Middle-earth ten years ago, for Abdul-Jabbar, for the orcs, they are still in the impression of half a century ago.
"Orc, the weapon in your hand does not belong to you, put it down, we can let you go, and this human, don't touch her again. ”
The centaur leader walked up to Jabbar and looked down at the unruly orcs on the ground. Obviously, this attitude, this tone, is a contempt and distrust of Abdul-Jabbar.
Esalivan was next to her, explaining as much as she could to avoid the misunderstanding.
"Dear Lord of the Prairie, I think you misunderstood him, this orc, this weapon itself belongs to him, a long time ago, dwarves, humans, orcs joined forces to build this weapon, and gave it to this friend of mine. ”
With pure diplomatic etiquette, Esalivan explained over and over again. But the Centaur leader remained glued to the Storm Hammer in Jabbar's hand. Apparently, it knows this weapon, or does it know the white gem in the middle of this warhammer, the Ancient Elven Diamond?
"No, that weapon doesn't belong to it, we must keep it. ”
But despite Esalivan's desperate explanations, a few minutes later, the worst happened, and the centaur leader decided that Abdul-Jabbar's weapon had been stolen, and a battle seemed to be on the horizon and had to be fought again...... (To be continued.) )
