Chapter 21: The Agitation of the Beast
Rift Mountains, Active Volcanic Craters.
The scorching waves of air enveloped the surroundings, the churning magma licked the mountains, and Rowe stood in the middle of the black stone bridge, looking at Ramon at the end.
The other party is digesting the information he provided.
"Well done."
Ramon ended up with an assessment that surprised even himself.
He can't be blamed for this, because what he wants to know, Luo Wei told him everything.
Except for Rowe himself.
"Come here."
Follow them deeper into the volcano and arrive at a makeshift altar where ritual symbols on the ground have begun to take shape.
Ramon sat down against the stone steps, took the intricately decorated bottle from his robe, and glanced at Rowe.
"Do you dare to drink?"
"Don't dare." Luo Wei replied frankly, and also took out the water bladder around his waist.
"Do you dare to drink?"
Faced with Luo Wei's rhetorical question, Ramon felt ridiculous in his heart, but after squinting his eyes, he chose not to say no.
"The Valkyrie will come to White Harbor in the semifinals or finals, and I need you to bring her here."
"If I promise you, at least two of the three of us have brain problems."
RamΓ³n was silent for five seconds.
"If you're normal and think I'm right, then it's only the Valkyrie who has a problem with your brain."
"No," Rowe shook his head, "promising you is very problematic in itself. β
Ramon was slightly surprised.
"Wonderful."
He didn't skimp on compliments.
For the first time, he began to feel a trace of regret for killing the teenager.
"All this is premised, I know something about the valley to the west," Ramon said, taking out his old silver cup and pouring a small sip of dark red wine, "the king's warships and weak cities will be destroyed, and they will be destroyed in the wrath of their restoration." β
Luo Wei raised his head under the reminder of the other party, and at the cliff cliff high up, several figures hid behind the obstacle and watched, their furry ears trembled smartly, and their long tails came out sideways.
Orcs.
If there is one of the most oppressed races among the subhumans, it is undoubtedly the orcs.
Elves and dwarves maintain alliances with humans, dragonmen boast of their bloodline, merfolk occupy the deep sea, and succubi have close ties with demons. The rest of the subhuman races living in this world also have their own cultures and territories.
Only the orcs have a wide range of biodiversity, such as canine people, werewolves, fox people, winged people, lizard people...... But more often than not, following their animal instincts, they have been bullied for centuries, banished from their homes like real animals, slaughtered and captured like trophies, and have a smaller and smaller range of survival.
Perhaps it was just human control over the territory under its jurisdiction at first.
But when the first dog girl was sent to the slave market, the nature of the whole incident changed.
They are naturally charismatic, with gentle eyes, furry ears and tails, and instincts engraved in their bodies for the sake of reproduction, which make them addictive at certain times.
As a result, having an orc girl with outstanding character and complete domestication became a status symbol, and quickly became popular among the aristocratic class.
How could a businessman let go of such a sky-high market.
For a time, hunters, mercenaries, underground organizations, and even some knights began to accept commissions to ruthlessly plunder the orc settlements, and even the villagers who only provided sighting information could get a lot of bounties.
Behind the scenes of the orc mother, you can always hear those outrageous stories.
Luo Wei: "......"
Ramon took that sip of wine, indifferent to the gaze on the cliff, "Humans are inherently ugly. β
Rowe couldn't contradict him this time.
When the sacrificial idol is overthrown, the leader of the god is surrounded and fallen, and he still has to be afraid when he hides in the valley, how can he understand this kind of hatred.
"So, why are they spying on you?" Luo Wei asked knowingly.
Ramon smiled, and took out a long box with several forbidden seals from under his wide robes.
"Because I have in my hands part of the remains of their gods."
He was deliberately revealing this information to himself, and Luo Wei knew it.
But it's a pity that whether it is the high priest of the Yin God in front of him, or the princess Loveli, who sensed the movement in advance and took the initiative to come to Baigang Town to exterminate the beast tide.
They guessed the end.
But I couldn't guess the end.
β¦β¦
Magic Battleship, Wings of Heaven.
Loveley sat on the silver throne, crossed one leg and listened to the knight's report.
ββ¦β¦ As Her Royal Highness expected, the recent monster mutations in White Harbor Town came from the conspiracy of the orc clan, and there were a lot of traces of creation magic in the Valley of Weeping. β
"Got it, let's do it as planned."
"Yes."
When the knight stepped back, Loveley rubbed his shoulders and lowered his thighs wrapped in white trousers.
"Saiya."
"I'm here."
"What do you think of this beast tide?"
Saiya blinked in mid-air, why would the princess ask herself such a question?
"Didn't we foresee this before we came?"
Loveley nodded thoughtfully.
She rose from her throne and stepped over to the floor-to-ceiling glass, overlooking the blackened mountains to the west.
Her keen intelligence perception allowed her to foresee what was about to happen here, so she took advantage of the Elite Tournament to control the deployment of the local army.
Only by showing a strong ability to solve the calamity on her own can the royal brothers and sisters and ministers know that the reason why she is favored by her father is not because she is the youngest.
However, it went so well.
It's all under control.
"Is the world so boring?"
She muttered in small pieces, feeling a trace of loss that was difficult to let go.
β¦β¦
The official qualifiers for the Elite were played in a rainy field.
The tables for the matches have long been posted in the towns, and at this time, the underground casinos and the black market are at their busiest.
Athletics is inseparable from betting.
Pick the players you like, prove your vision, and at the same time win wealth for yourself.
The fun of killing three birds with one stone, but after an unexpected game, it was a little cold and lonely by this rain.
"Match-fixing! It's a match-fixing! β
"It's so obvious!"
"He's deliberately releasing water!"
In the center of the field, Luo Wei put his worn-out broadsword into its scabbard, and the audience booed from all sides.
Of course, this is not for him.
Not far in front of him, the contestant he was fighting knelt in the rain, looking at his hands in disbelief.
"What the hell did you do?"
He didn't understand how he lost, he had already investigated the level of the other party, a bronze-level adventurer, without any record of commissioning, and it was probably just luck to pass the audition.
That's exactly what happened, the other party didn't use magic, didn't use elemental skills, and even weapons were mediocre.
It was supposed to be a no-brainer.
"I ...... Lost? β
This made him deeply suspicious, and he knelt in the rain and did not get up until now.
The boos around him made his body tremble even more, as if there was a thousand catties of weight on his body.
"It can't be!"
Roaring and roaring, he grabbed the sword that had fallen to the ground and stabbed it towards the unremarkable-looking back.
Swish.
Before he could take two steps, he fell into the rain, his head bowed, a poorly made dagger stuck in his thigh.
"For ...... What ......"
One last glance at the back of the footsteps that kept leaving towards the sidelines, the man immediately lost consciousness.
"Hehe......" Loveley in the stands chuckled.
And the most puzzling thing for spectators is.
There are obviously no noteworthy players today, why did Wang Nu go out of his way to attend?
