Chapter 45: The Approaching War

What the earth wanted to test didn't happen.

After the black-scaled bird-faced dragon was directly sent out of the perception range of the two extended cores by it, the sound of its heart beating became smaller and smaller.

However, it wasn't until most of the day later, when it returned to its vicinity, that it didn't have any wounds on its body, and Jixing didn't feel any of its fighting-related emotional changes.

Oh, except for a few little bugs in its mouth.

Speaking of which, ornithistosaurus is a dinosaur that theoretically has the ability to excavate.

Its eating habits are relatively close to those of anteaters.

Although it does not have burrowing habits, its forelimbs, which are short and strong, are thought to be used to assist in digging up insect nests such as termites.

Combined with the elongated, insect-sucking mouth, the eating habit is an insectivorous expert.

If it's a bird-faced dragon on the other side of the earth.

I haven't forgotten that this guy is the material base of the black-scaled kobold.

It is dressed in the skin of a bird-faced dragon, and it is a black-scaled kobold underneath.

At most, it can be regarded as a black-scaled kobold that evolved into the form of a bird-faced dragon.

The only thing it inherited from the Bird-Faced Dragon was the label "Lone Walker".

Speaking of which, if [Alone] is replaced by [Group], it is more likely to obey its own command.

When he commanded a dinosaur like the Zephyr, which also had the label of "Lone Walker", to go to the surface to find food, he sensed that it was easier to command the Yarlosaurus than to the Zephyr.

There is a variable comparison, and the ground line can also roughly confirm a point-

The black-scaled bird-faced dragon's instinctive vigilance against the earth, Yarlong, and Zephyr dragon, in addition to the fact that it belongs to the base of the black-scaled kobold, [lonely] is also an important factor.

Speaking of which, why didn't the black-scaled kobold come over here?

He also wanted to try if the Zephyr Dragon and the Black-scaled Bird-faced Dragon teamed up to defeat the Black-scaled Kobold.

But forget it, there will be opportunities in the future.

After glancing at half of his regained energy, Dixing gave orders to both the Black-scaled Bird-Faced Dragon and the Zephyr Dragon to collect flesh and blood, and began to think about and refine their previous plans.

Time turned into late night again, and there was still half a day left before the evolution was completed.

......

Deep underground.

Demos, the leader of the swamp kobolds, looked a little ugly.

Hagu left, and the day after Hagu left, three swamp kobolds died.

On the day he sent the kobold to find the body, he encountered an elven shapeshifter and killed another swamp kobold.

Of the swamp kobolds who were sent out to collect food yesterday, three more did not return.

You must know that the swamp kobold in the "Dragon's Breath" tribe originally had a total of fifty-nine.

Now, there are only fifty-one left.

Female swamp kobolds, there are twenty-seven.

Of the male swamp kobolds, there are only twenty-four left.

What to do? The appearance of the Elven Transfigurers and the "Tree of War" also indicates that it is time for the Elves to clear the swamp.

However, winter is also coming, and the bone-eating fog appears, and in the southern heath, the skeletons will attack the elven tree walls again, and it will last all winter until the ice melts.

There are fewer kobolds, and although the need for food has decreased, this is not a good thing either.

Those skeleton shelves will still go underground more or less, and if you accidentally encounter a stronger undead, the entire tribe will probably not be able to leave even half of it after winter.

But......

Demos really didn't have the courage to step on the surface again, and he didn't want to go near the surface.

Let the warriors of the tribe move in the lower strata, and try to survive this winter.

.......

However, at the same time, within the elven kingdom.

Rows of tree houses are formed at regular intervals, leaving enough ground for vehicles to pass.

A large, herbivorous camel with abundant physical strength pulls the vehicle along.

From time to time, you can see animals with their hair or feathers representing their animal companions, walking the streets carrying their elven allies.

At the same time, there are still places where laughter can be heard from time to time, but the source of the sound is not visible, until a small creature with transparent wings flies out.

Elves with long ears and hair of gold or silver talk in front of the shops around the street, or show off their fine weavings, or show off their special plants that they have selected and bred, and occasionally hear discussions about history and anecdotes.

It's just that this seemingly peaceful and peaceful situation can be easily broken-

A group of sickly pale-skinned, blood-stained elves made their way through the streets.

Seeing them, the elves who were still talking and laughing couldn't help but keep their mouths shut.

Or disgust and fear, or reverence and longing, or something else.......

Blood Elves.

Changed the Elven Kingdom from horned vegetarians to fanged carnivores.

The blood tree, which represents the taboo, is accepted by more and more people today.

Often, they are found in harsh and dangerous areas, near tree walls, but today is different.

However, their appearance today was not to make those ordinary forest elves show complicated eyes to them.

Not far from where the elves were, in a treehouse, several blood elves were talking.

.......

Dragon Empire, Elven Kingdom, Dwarven Kingdom,

Lizardman Kingdom, Undead Wasteland, Human Kingdom, Deep Sea Empire

Beast Empire, Crimson Kingdom, Elemental Empire

Eindor looked away from the old, nearly hundred-year-old simple map on the wall and turned to his friend.

"Winter is coming, the fog on the swamp, the smell of death is getting stronger and stronger, either we will complete the last round of clearing of the swamp before winter as soon as possible, or ......"

Aindor's voice was tinged with a hint of weariness.

The blood elf beside him just patted him on the shoulder:

"It has been confirmed that near the southwest border, there are traces of high-level dragons."

"So ......"

"No, you should know how many lizardmen there are in the stone forest outside the southwest border."

"We need to concentrate our forces on the southwest border, on the swamp side, your news should be fine, there are low-level dragons, and they are low-level dragons that can kill and injure low-level blood elf soldiers in the process of encirclement and suppression."

"However, we have no extra troops to send out, we must strengthen the defenses of the tree wall, your news has been reported, however, it is impossible to approve the outing."

"Even a patrol team like yours will be asked to strengthen the garrison later, instead of patrolling in person, patrolling and reconnaissance tasks....... Ranger should be dispatched to conduct reconnaissance patrols through animal companions. ”

"For ......."

Syllable.

The Blood Elf who spoke to Eindor pressed his shoulder:

"I have made it very clear that even if we want to take the initiative to attack and destroy the enemy, we will only choose the southwest direction, and in other directions, we will only keep the tree wall as the focus of defense, and it is impossible to send a large number of troops to clear it."

And......

The blood elf's gaze swept over Aindor's eyes:

"Moreover, our neighbors to the east are not at ease, whether they are humans or dwarves, they may wait for an opportunity to act."

"Aindor, I warn you, it's best not to go out on your own, and wait until after the winter."

PS: In the roughest and simplest outline, the terrain of this world is like this, as for all kinds of relatively small plains, mountains, valleys, rivers and lakes and other terrain, when I describe it in the future, I will use this outline as a reference, this should be easier to understand.
