Chapter Ninety-Six: Riot
Under the brilliant fireworks, the faces of every orc were filled with happy smiles, whether it was in the temple or in the square, the orcs were celebrating the winter festival.
Fan Chong looked at the orcs in front of him, and didn't feel strange, and even began to miss the rest of the Tiger Xiao tribe, "Old goat Dumbledore, Xiao Hu, Second Tiger, I don't know how they are doing now." ”
Leon, who was beside Fan Zhong at this time, seemed to notice Fan Chong's abnormality;
"Your Excellency, I don't think you're very happy, isn't there a proper arrangement for the celebration. ”
Seeing how Leon treated himself, Fan Zhong hurriedly explained;
"No, no, the celebration is very well arranged, and the food is very delicious, but I think of some of my friends, and I heard from my friends that every year on the Winter Festival, the tribe goes through a difficult time, why is it ...... in the empire"
Hearing Fan Chong's question, a proud expression appeared on Leon's face;
"Lord Emissary, the tribe you came from, I also know something, is a small tribe, and the location is relatively close to the human race, such a tribe has always maintained the traditions left by ancient times.
Generally speaking, our orc tribe rarely interacts with humans frequently, so during the winter festival, we must rely on hunting demonic beasts to get through this period, but when the winter comes in the rocky forest, there are few demonic beasts that cannot be seen.
In this way, of course, it is difficult for these small tribes to survive the winter festival, but the current empire unifies the power of most of the tribes, and the resources are also distributed, and although the tribes that are not strong enough are annexed by the empire, they pay a part of the resources or provide orc warriors to offset them, and their tribes can continue to develop, isn't that right?"
Looking at the orcs in front of him, Fan Zhong thought of the other people in the Chiyan Mountain Range, who were probably still hunting in the Rock Forest for food at this time.
............................................................................................................
Rock Forest.
Under the same bright moon, the atmosphere in the Chiyan Mountains was not as harmonious and celebratory as the Empire, where most of the mercenary groups and orc warriors from other surrounding tribes gathered.
They didn't gather here to celebrate, all of them put on armor and weapons, as if waiting for something.
"Old Mo, did you see it that time?" In the crowd, Lao Mo and Lord were also among them, but now Lao Mo was covered with bandages, but he still stood with Lord and them, waiting for what was about to happen.
Jake, who was talking on the side, was not wearing gorgeous aristocratic clothes at this time, but various protective equipment, glanced at Jack, and Lao Mo said to him;
"Jacques, you shouldn't be here, I told you, I saw it happen with my own eyes. ”
When he said this, Lao Mo seemed to have pulled the wound, and his mouth hissed.
"Old Mo, it's not that I don't believe you, if it's really like you said, then this place shouldn't hold on for too long, or you can go with me!"
As he spoke, Jake put his hand in his arms and took out a gold-rimmed scroll, and the moment Jake took it out, Lord also saw this thing, and his eyes were a little shocked.
"What is this?" Although Lao Mo also saw the scroll in Jake's hand, he didn't recognize what this was, but just looked at Jake with some suspicion, after all, Jake didn't see the scene that day, and probably thought that only a powerful magic scroll was needed to solve it.
Lao Mo's eyes, Jia Ke naturally saw it, only to see him snort.
"This thing, I didn't blow it, I guess you haven't heard of it, and it has only recently come out on the black market. You've probably heard of teleportation scrolls!"
"Teleportation scrolls, why haven't I heard of them, I've seen others use them before, saying that once you open it, you can get out safely no matter what danger you encounter.
But in an adventure, I saw a C-level mercenary group leader use it, and that time we stabbed a fourth-level demonic beast leader's lair, and this thing helped him walk more than ten miles more than us, and the current situation, more than ten miles really doesn't work!"
"Phew, don't look down on me Jacques, although my strength is not good, but my eyes are poisonous, this thing is different from the ordinary scrolls you know, it is newly developed, and it can only be seen occasionally on the black market. ”
Hearing Jake keep mentioning the black market, Lao Mo also knew that the existence of the black market was indeed a bit mysterious, and many things that could not be seen could be found in the black market in the morning, so he didn't interrupt Jake again.
"Tell me, then, that is why you stayed?"
"Of course, this scroll is also a teleportation scroll, and unlike ordinary teleportation scrolls, this newly developed scroll has indeed completed the function of a thousand miles away. ”
"What? there really is!" Jake's words shocked Lao Mo, after all, when being chased by a demonic beast, the distance between the middle, the better, and if it suddenly disappeared within the range of the demonic beast's perception, maybe it would not be hunted down.
"Yes, this teleportation scroll in my hand is just a test item, although it can take people to thousands of miles away in an instant, but the specific location is only an approximate range, and it is not accurate, despite this, the price is ......"
When he said this, Jake's face showed some pain, but Lao Mo on the side laughed, "Jake, look at you like this, this scroll is not cheap." ”
"One hundred thousand spirit sources, originally I wanted to sell them to some mercenary group leaders at a high price, but I didn't expect that we were the first to use them. ”
"We?" Lao Mo looked at Jake with some surprise at this time, in his impression, Jake was not such a person.
"Old Mo, why did I survive in the first place, I know that you helped me pull it out of the corpse, this time, let me save you once. ”
On the side, Lord looked at Jake and Lao Mo, who had been by Lao Mo's side for so long, he knew that Jake and Lao Mo had a special relationship, but he didn't expect the two to have a life-and-death relationship.
"Why are you talking about this, I was just a little mercenary back then, and I'm still like that. ”
"Little mercenary, others will think so, I don't think so, I think this little brother should have found out!"
Jake suddenly turned his head and looked at Lord meaningfully, facing Jake's eyes, Lorde's heartbeat couldn't help but get up quickly, and when Jake reminded him like this, Lord came back to his senses and looked at Lao Mo.
Although Lao Mo was covered in bandages and looked like a seriously injured patient, he was now able to fight, and at that time, he watched the Holy Light Impact of the Giant Horned Deer crash into the body of the model worker, but only caused some damage to Lao Mo and did not kill him.
Perhaps sensing Lorde's gaze, Lao Mo scratched his head, "Everyone has their own secrets in their hearts, and they can't let others know, right?" ”
Lao Mo's words made Lord feel half struck by lightning, and he felt that Lao Mo seemed to know that his identity was hidden, and for a while the three of them fell into silence, but at this time, a voice suddenly shouted.
"They, they're coming! a lot, a lot of fourth-level demonic beasts!"
The screams made everyone look into the distance, only to see that in the jungle not far from the Chiyan Mountain Range, at this time, groups of demonic beasts were running one after another;
Most of the mercenaries here are of a relatively low level, but their gaze is not low, among these magical beasts, most of them are third-level, fourth-level and other magical beasts, and behind these magical beasts are the populations led by these magical beasts.
The white moonlight reflected on the white snowdrifts on the ground, completely illuminating the appearance of these magical beasts, looking at the number and level of these magical beasts, the mercenaries who were ready to go out to hunt at the beginning were all hidden in the Chiyan Mountain Range at this time.
The barrier soon lit up, and it was even more dazzling than when facing the volcanic eruption before, and everyone almost pinned their hopes on the barrier, and some people shouted at this time;
"Everyone take out the demon core, we have to activate the barrier with all our might, and before that, we have already called for help from the surrounding mercenary groups above the C level, as long as we hold on, we will definitely be able to wait for their support!"
The person who spoke was a lovely girl, almost all the mercenaries present knew her, she was a staff member of the mercenary union, her name was Odoria, I heard that she was still a nobleman, and she was teased by the mercenaries on weekdays.
At this time, she was the first to stand up, and her tenacious tone made those mercenaries in panic feel very shy when they saw it, after all, in the past, they were all very heroic in front of Otoria and were not afraid of anything.
Soon, one mercenary after another walked up to Odoria, took out his magic core, and stuffed it into the staff of the mercenary union, and soon the barrier became more and more condensed.
At the same time, the next mercenaries were also ready to fight, as if they were ready to fight to the death with the demonic beasts not far away, but a strange scene appeared, these riotous beasts did not rush here, but walked along the road towards the outside of the rocky forest.
Soon someone exclaimed;
"It's a beast tide! Their target is Rock City!!
