And Highlander's talent belongs to this kind, although she is still far from being qualified to become a Bright Templar, but she already has such potential. As long as Highlander works her own and slowly trains according to the requirements, it will only be a matter of time before she becomes a Templar of Light.
For Fang Qingshu, this is simply pie in the sky good news, you must know that the talent of spiritual power is not something that everyone can have. According to Atlantean statistics, it takes only one in a thousand Atlanteans to become a fighting talent for the Dark Templars. And to become a Bright Templar Warrior's spiritual power talent, it takes only one in 100,000 people to appear. This shows how rare Highlander's talent is.
Actually, this kind of thing is also known to the little devils, but generally speaking, it takes at least a hundred years to grow from an ordinary Atlantean warrior to a Templar of Light. Even if they rely on retreat, it will take tens of thousands of divine coins to do it.
And this strength alone is not enough, it is necessary to equip Highlander with the corresponding special battle armor, after all, it is obviously impossible to destroy a battleship with a person's spiritual power alone, unless they have become gods. Otherwise, there must be a warframe to provide huge energy to work, and such a warframe is undoubtedly sky-high.
So, in the eyes of the little devil, Highlander became a waste. You must know that people with mental talent are often physically weak, and their combat effectiveness is also very low. So in the long years before becoming a Templar of Light, Highlander could only drag everyone down. Unless the little devil is willing to arm Helena with hundreds of tons of gold and tens of thousands of divine coins like Fang Qingshu treats Helena, this is obviously impossible.
In this case, the imps plan to kill Highlander like Edward and rob her of her armor. Obviously, in terms of viciousness, the little devils are better than Edward, at least Edward didn't think about killing people and making money.
That's why Kuraki Jiro and the others deliberately didn't replenish Highlanda's energy at the beginning, and they didn't treat her injuries, trying to toss her to death in this way, but unfortunately Highlanda had a big life, and she didn't die until she came here. However, she was very weak and could not keep up with Sora Aoi's march.
This made Jiro Kuraki and others, who had always regarded him as a thorn in the flesh, very dissatisfied. Originally, they wanted Highlander to die at the hands of others, after all, it was always a bad thing to kill a teammate by himself. Unexpectedly, although Highlander was sick and wounded, she never died. So they gradually lost their patience, and this time Highlander slowed down the march of the whole team, which angered them even more. So they used this as an excuse to ask Highlander to commit suicide together, so as not to drag everyone down.
Highlander naturally didn't want to die, so she begged bitterly, but in exchange for punches and kicks from Sora Aoi and others. If Fang Qingshu hadn't come in time, I'm afraid she would have to explain here.
After such a catastrophe of life and death, Highlanda's body and mind were severely traumatized, and after being rescued, she remained silent until she saw Helena and cried loudly.
Originally, Highlanda wanted them to take care of Highlander, that is, to pull Highlander into their team. However, it seems that Helena seems to prefer to take care of her sister by herself, and they are twin sisters after all, it is obviously inappropriate to forcibly separate them, plus Fang Qingshu They treat Helena very well, so Hailancha finally gave up.
Fang Qingshu couldn't bear to see this miserable scene more, after taking care of the little girl and Helena to take good care of Highlander. He went to Calories and discussed his next steps with Highlancha.
However, there is really nothing to negotiate. Hailancha said directly, "We listen to you!"
And Calorie also said deceitfully: "We are mercenaries, as long as you give us the two war spirits you promised, we will guarantee that everything will be under the command! Head, you can decide what to do for yourself, just let me know when the time comes." ”
What else could Fang Qingshu say besides smiling bitterly? But this is fine, at least there is no need to worry about intrigue.
In the next few days, Fang Qingshu didn't release any tasks, just let them move casually, but they couldn't go too far. Now they can be happy with calories, there is food, drink and scenery, and wild animals can hunt and play, it is simply a vacation!
Fang Qingshu, on the other hand, stayed in front of the computer screen with Jiang Ruoqin all day long, carefully watching the images transmitted by the satellite. The so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other is invincible, Fang Qingshu has studied with Kong Ming for many years, and he is well versed in the art of war, so he naturally knows the important surname of intelligence. That's why I'd rather sacrifice precious time to gather information carefully first.
In fact, for such a large continent, it is basically impossible to rely on a satellite to collect enough intelligence in three days. If nothing else, it's hard to find Edward's exact location. Without a cell phone signal or a distress message from the Atlantean armor to guide the way, trying to find someone from millions of square kilometers of land is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, Fang Qingshu didn't want to find anyone specifically, he just wanted to depict the general topography of the continent first. Of course, finding out the lair of the Great Demon King Cthun is still not a big problem. In fact, it only took them one day to find the place.
Cthun's lair is located in the center of the entire continent, where the land is pitch black and uncovered for hundreds of miles. In the middle is a protruding mountain with a towering black stone fortress on top of it.
The fortress was not very large, about two or three miles in radius, but it was extremely steep, and there were pairs of demon soldiers patrolling it everywhere, and there was not a single kobold warrior in it.
These demon soldiers looked terrifying, with dark skin, tiny scales, and although they were also humanoid, they had a long tail and a pair of fleshy wings exposed. They are all more than three meters tall, with bulging muscles all over their bodies, and they are extremely burly. Dressed in shiny silver armor, he has a variety of melee weapons such as axes, swords, shields, and spears. Presumably, these people were warriors, so they did not see anyone with a bow and crossbow.
At the foot of the hill is a huge barracks, or city, inhabited by kobold warriors and their families. The kobold's appearance is very ridiculous. They are usually about 1.5 meters tall, very short, with a cute dog face and a black nose the size of a ping-pong ball, which is almost as funny as a clown in a circus.
Most of the kobolds in the city are soldiers, and although their equipment is varied, even with bows and crossbows, they are generally good. At least it's well maintained, and both the armor and the weapons look brand new. And these kobolds are also in good spirits, they are all lively, and there is no trace of abuse.
And they are still out of the game at the specified time every day, they train very seriously, and obviously, they have a certain combat effectiveness. Presumably because they belonged to Cthun's direct subordinates.
In contrast, Fang Qingshu had never seen kobolds like this in the kobold settlements he found elsewhere. Elsewhere, kobolds usually can't afford to wear rags, and most of them, both men and women, only wrap a leaf around their waists to cover their shame.
They didn't have any metal weapons in their hands, the only metal was mining tools, heads, shovels, iron skewers, and so on. Even such kobolds are abused by the Demon Overseer, and the slightest mistake is a severe beating.
Across the continent, all kobolds were forcibly relocated by demons to more than a hundred settlements, each with one or two thousand kobolds, ruled by a single demon. The demons' subordinates usually also have about a hundred kobold lackeys to help the demons manage. However, the treatment of the lackeys is not very good, at most they can wear animal skins and carry whips, and metal weapons are absolutely none.
Looking at the situation on the entire continent, it has to be said that Cthun is still very good at management. This layer-by-layer management model eliminates the possibility of dog-headed rebellion to the greatest extent. So that the demons of less than a thousand people can easily manage millions of kobolds.
