Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Animal Kingdom?...
Evil Eye Kingdom......
The Evil Eye King?
Du Wei smiled bitterly: "Could it be that this guy has already built a country here and set himself up as a king, an animal kingdom, a kingdom of Warcraft?"
Seeing this announcement, Du Wei became more and more curious about this "evil-eyed tyrant".
"Give one eye......" Hussein sneered, he suddenly took a step back, and before Du Wei and Dardanelle could react, the knight had already slashed out with a backhand sword, and then he heard a click, and the boulder in front of him had been split in half and collapsed with a bang.
At this time, there were a few crows chirping in the distance, Du Wei and the three couldn't help but be stunned, looking from a distance, they saw a few crows flying on the dry branches on a section of the dry tree trunk in the canyon, and they croaked at the three of them a few times, and one of the crows actually spoke and said loudly: "Outsider!
After saying that, he flapped his wings and shouted "Go and report", and then several crows flew into the canyon at the same time.
Hussein sneered, kicked a few stones on the ground under his feet, and suddenly sighed twice, and the two stones shè went out, shooting down the two crows from a distance, and suddenly saw two feathers scattered, smashing the two crows to pieces.
"Well, you should have knocked them all down." Du Wei sighed: "Now the other party is prepared, but it's not good."
"I did it on purpose." Hussein looked arrogant, and then strode inside.
Dardanelle pulled Du Wei for a while, he looked upright, touched it from his arms for a while, and found a small baggage, which was opened layer by layer, but revealed a few black things: "This is the thing we carry with us to deal with the golden-eyed python......
Du Wei only glanced at it, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Sunglasses?"
"What?" Dardanelle asked rhetorically.
"Oh, nothing." Du Wei immediately shook his head, and Dardanelle took out these things, which really looked like the kind of things called "sunglasses" that Du Wei knew in his previous life.
Each thing was small, two thin pieces of translucent crystals polished in black and thin, fixed in place with a solid gold frame, and two more leather cases on either side, which were used to fasten the ears to the ground.
"These dark crystals are rare, and it took a lot of thought for us to buy them." Dardanelle smiled: "Don't underestimate these things, these few things, it cost 80,000 gold coins, we came to the forest There are eight people, so we brought eight pieces, all of which are placed here ...... I think that thing here is called the 'Evil Eye Tyrant.' It's mostly related to the eyes, but I'm afraid that that thing is also the eyes and some kind of weirdness.
"Thank you." Du Wei didn't shirk, and reached out and took a pair of "sunglasses" to put on.
"You don't need to thank me, I should thank you." Dardanelle's face was a little strange, and he said in a low voice: "I know very well that with my strength, I can't even protect myself in this kind of way, and without your help, it would be impossible to get here.
As soon as the words "no matter who you are", Du Wei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He originally reported to Dardanelle as a pseudonym, but later, with Hussein joining the team, Hussein knew Du Weidi's identity, and in his speech and demeanor, Hussein would inevitably call Du Wei's name, even if he didn't call Du Weidi's name, occasionally shouting a sentence such as "Rowin's boy" and the like, it was enough to indicate Du Weidi's true identity.
Dardanelle heard it, but he didn't say anything.
Today, this window paper was pierced, Du Wei couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, Dardanelle has always been very honest with himself, he deceived him, deceived his companions who had been together for so many days (and when he met Hussein that day, Dardanelle knew that he was invincible, but he still worked hard with Hussein to protect Du Wei), so Du Wei cherished this feeling.
With a look of shame, Du Wei whispered, "Okay, Dardanelle, I didn't mean to lie to you...... Well, my real name is Dewey, I'm from the Rollin family, and Count Raymond is my father, because I don't want too many people to know about magic, so ...... I just gave you a false name, and I ask for your understanding."
Dardanelle smiled and hugged Dewey with open arms: "Whoever you are, you are my friend and benefactor of Dardanelle.
The three of them continued to move on, and faintly, there was a cacophony of sounds ahead, stones colliding, shouting, and shouting.
The three of them glanced at each other and sped up, Duvey tucked his hands into his sleeves, and Dardanelles had already removed his bow and arrows, but Hussein strode ahead.
After turning the last corner, the momentum of the ground in front of him suddenly opened up, but the scene in front of him also made Du Wei feel a little surprised:
The field in front of it was about the size of a football field, maybe bigger.
Here, there is actually a city wall being built!
It's the ground, that's right, it's the city walls!!
Some tall giant-like thing was walking around, laboriously carrying and piling up stones that had been cut into squares......
And next to it, a group of small things with short stature and gray fur, looking like groundhogs, but with whips in their hands, running around, as if they were overseers!
These overseers were almost a little shorter than ordinary people, but they were like rats that had evolved into people, and they looked like rats, but they walked upright like people, and they were still wearing "clothes" made of tree bark or animal skins, and they walked back and forth one by one
Go, with a small whip in his hand like a vine, and from time to time he would give two blows to the giants who were carrying stones, and then scold in a shrill voice.
And the giants who carry the rocks...... Du Wei was surprised.
Those poor "coolies" are all tree people!
No, to be precise, a group of "companions" of the tree people!!, but soon, Du Wei noticed something unusual.
The coolies of the "companion" class of the treants are no longer woody, their bodies have been turned to stone, as if they have been petrified by some kind of petrification, they have become tall stone sculptures, a group of movable stone carvings, laboriously, mechanically, and clumsily working back and forth.
Moreover, it was clear that the rat-like overseers were very short, but these fellow petrified treants seemed to be afraid of the rat overseers—or rather, they were afraid of the whips in their hands!
The whips in the hands of these rats seem to have some kind of magical power, and when they go down, they can only reach the legs of their fellow treants at most, but they can make their fellow treants howl in pain.
When the three of them got closer, they were immediately noticed by the overseers, and these rat-like guys watched three strangers walk in, and immediately one of them screamed loudly, shouting, "Outsider! Outsider! There is a ......."
Unfortunately, before he could finish his sentence, Hussein was heard snorting, and then a golden light flashed, and the rat's head was beaten into meat sauce and fell down.
The other overseers were frightened and ran in all directions, shouting loudly at the same time.
"Alas, you're moving too fast." Du Wei sighed.
"It's going to turn the other cheek anyway." Hussein doesn't care.
The walls were halfway piled up, when suddenly a trumpet was heard, and a group rushed out from behind the gates...... Soldier?
Du Wei felt that his trip was really an eye-opener. These rat overseers can walk upright and can speak, which has made Du Wei very curious about this "animal kingdom".
It's a team...... Cavalry?
About a dozen rats, much stronger than the overseers, sat majestically on their "mounts", and these rat soldiers actually wore uniform armor on each of them...... It's just that most of the armor seems to be made of animal skins, and there is even a person holding a banner behind it, which is woven of linen, and a huge eyeball is simply drawn on it.
And these cavalrymen sat on their mounts, of course, not horses...... Rather, a whole team of giant "trees."
It's not horses, but these giant trees are very complete, and from a distance, a team of rats ride the trees and are speechless.
However, these fellows rushed out of the city gate in a murderous manner, and then quickly surrounded Du Wei and his party, led by a big rat holding a sharpened stick in his hand and a spear made of sharpened sticks, pointing at the three of them, and shouting in a sharp and unpleasant voice: "Outsider, why did you come to the land of the Great Evil Eye King! Tell me your intentions and pay your taxes!"
Du Wei rolled his sleeves and smiled slightly: "Evil Eye Monarch...... I've never heard of such a kingland on the continent...... Excuse me, what's the matter with you?"
"We are His Majesty's cavalry!" Captain Rat puffed out his chest proudly: "On the orders of the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, we will build a city wall here and be responsible for the checkpoints here!
Du Wei didn't know whether to laugh or stare at him...... This evil-eyed tyrant seems to be very addicted to playing the game of nation-building...... There is still a prime minister?
Still, in any case, being pointed at by a dozen rats with sticks is hardly enough to make three capable humans feel threatened.—despite the size of these rats.
"We have come to meet the Evil Eye King." Du Wei laughed.
The rat cavalry captain was stunned for a moment...... In fact, there are very few outsiders in this canyon kingdom here, and as the captain of the kingdom's land cavalry, he rarely has the opportunity to show his majesty in front of outsiders...... Seeing these three outsiders, this guy was still quite excited, shook his majesty, and shouted: "Nonsense! Your Majesty can see the ground if you want to see it! Quickly gouge out your eyes, and then get out!"
Du Wei sighed and stopped talking.
Hussein began to strike, and the knight's sword only slashed in a circle, and after the golden light was sprinkled, the sticks in the hands of these rats suddenly fell apart, and the cavalry captain's head rolled to the top with a grunt, and the trees below immediately jumped away, scattered and fled.
Looking at the dead rats, Du Wei was a little disgusted: "Can't you clean it up?" kicked his shoes and shook off a few mouse hairs on the ground, Du Wei shook his head and continued to walk forward.
He shouted a few words to his fellow earth-hardeners who had petrified them, but these fellow-earth-treants who didn't have much intelligence couldn't speak, so Du Wei gave up his intentions and could only walk through the half-built city wall with his two companions and continue into the canyon.
After passing through the wall, the scene in the canyon immediately changed again.
Large trees are neatly arranged on both sides...... All of them are petrified trees, but the trees that were originally full of life have been petrified, lined up on both sides of the road, but they reveal a bit of strange death.
There is also a stone pavement underfoot...... Everything here seems to be made of stone.
There were also a lot of stone buildings on both sides, houses, low-rise buildings, those square houses, doors and windows were dug out of the ground, Du Wei could see that there seemed to be something inside looking out.
Three outsiders walked into this strange "kingdom" in such a grand manner.
