Chapter 119 Gnoll

In addition to those humans, Tang Zhao also brought three trolls, and Tang Zhao didn't think about how to deal with these creatures at the first time.

In the beginning, Tang Zhao wanted to kidnap these trolls to obtain more information about the demon scrolls. Now that spellcasters can do this better, the existence of trolls is not so necessary.

Tang Zhao wanted to get more information about the demon scroll through them, but now the caster can obviously do better, so their importance is not so high now.

However, Tang Zhao also had his own considerations. Instead of driving away these trolls, he placed them near the mountain fortress - the advantage of the trolls is that they can do some dirty work, and having no bottom line is also an advantage.

Whether it is asking them to kidnap people to kill people, bury corpses, or even darker things, they have no psychological burden to do it, because there is no concept of morality in their world.

Any force needs some people to do the dirty work. Goblins have a psychological burden, dwarves have a strong sense of honor and disgrace, and kobolds have a weak heart.

As long as they are given enough food and not allowed to do jobs that are obviously death-defying, the trolls can still be regarded as qualified subordinates.

If you are just a thug, thinking too much, being too delicate and smart is not a good thing. Trolls fit his definition of a thug, with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, but occasionally there is a little bit of simple cleverness.

Therefore, Tang Zhao placed these trolls in the forest, relatively close to the edge of the forest, where neither goblins nor dwarves would run.

There is no doubt that these trolls were not good at before, otherwise they would not have been called "trolls". If something exceeds his bottom line, then he will ignore it.

The matter of the demon scroll is very important. Even Lorraine rushed over non-stop after getting the news to participate in the interrogation of the human spellcaster.

The caster didn't have much information, so a group of people asked around for a long time, but they didn't find out why they tried all kinds of methods.

They also tried to find answers from trolls and other adventurers, but to no avail, without any conclusive discoveries.

In desperation, Lorraine and other spellcasters turned their attention to the demon scrolls themselves, and began to study these scrolls as best they could.

Although there are quite a few spellcasters among the crowd, they are all druids. When it comes to things related to nature, they don't know much, but they don't know much about things involving demons.

It still takes a lot of time to decipher the scroll, and Tang Zhao can't help much, so the spellcasters gave him another task.

Going south to Insula to find more demonic scrolls, one is to collect more samples and learn more about the scrolls.The second is to curb the strengthening of the demon scroll and prevent something from actually running out of it.

The spell casters in the settlement seized the time to treat Tang Zhao's wounds all over his body. After two days of recuperation, the damaged scales on his body must have not recovered, but the wounds on his body have basically healed with scabs .

It had some impact on his defense, but it was still within the acceptable limit. The main thing is that the current situation does not allow him to procrastinate any longer—things related to demons should always be listed as the highest threat, and there is no room for negligence.

This time, he brought three living treasure trolls and headed south again, preparing to hunt those dangerous creatures and find the demon scrolls from their hands.

In fact, he originally felt that these trolls were in the way, and he didn't want them to be guides, and wanted to keep them where they were, but he was really afraid that after he left, the trolls who were disobedient to others would become restless, so So I had no choice but to take these living treasures to the south of the forest.

From the mouth of the spell caster, I learned that there are other people in the human world who are buying these scrolls, but Tang Zhao doesn't want to deal with them yet. First, get rid of the southern beasts and hobgoblins. It is not too late to slowly resolve the human affairs in the eastern part of the channel through which humans exert influence.

Tang Zhao is very clear that even if the individual strength of the beast is stronger than the human in the dark, the human is definitely more difficult than the beast, so he is not in a hurry to deal with those humans, and now there is no way to deal with them.

Since it is completely unclear how many demon scrolls there are, let alone the distribution rules of the scrolls, Tang Zhao can only choose those stupid methods, check one by one, and make plans after finding out the rules.

There are many powerful enemies in the forest here, and there are also enemies like the red dragon beast before. They are not familiar with the place, so Tang Zhao is going to change his style next, and pick the soft persimmons first.

After picking and choosing, Tang Zhao chose a tribe of wolf men.

Judging from the name, the jackal and the kobold seem to be almost the same, but in fact, these two are two completely different creatures.

Calling kobolds kobolds is mainly a matter of the namer. Soul painters painted lizards like dogs, and jackals were called jackals. In fact, it is a bit inappropriate: people look like hyenas, and they are like jackals. It doesn't matter.

Of course, there were other considerations in Tang Zhao's choice of the Jackal as his opponent.

Gnolls are actually a very young race. It has not been a thousand years since their birth. Elves, dwarves and goblins all remember the story of their birth, which can be clearly traced back to a demon lord.

Yeenogu, the king of the gnolls, is a demon lord in the bottomless abyss, and he is also the creator of the gnolls. The gnoll tribes that are now roaming around the continent are his masterpieces.

Yeenoghu once came to the main world through some means, and within a period of time began to kill on a large scale. A group of ordinary hyenas followed and cleaned up the remains of the demon lord. These hyenas were later transformed by the demon lord. Gnolls today.

To this day, Yeenoghu's purpose of expending great effort and cost to lower the realm is still unknown, but the wise men who know about this matter generally believe that his fundamental purpose is to create a pawn race in the main world that completely believes in himself.

Under the influence of complex reasons and multiple factors, jackals are now common in the corners of various civilizations. Although there is no place where jackals can become popular, their distribution breadth has indeed surpassed most intelligent races except humans.

With such a race directly related to the demons, it would be strange if Tang Zhao didn't trouble them first.

There were trolls as the leading party. After finding the general area, Tang Zhao searched with his sense of smell very conveniently. After a while, a few wolf man sentries, which were far from being heavily guarded, appeared in front of them.

Let the three trolls stay where they are, while he shrunk his body and took the initiative to investigate the situation in the wolf man camp.

The Gnoll's camp was 300 meters ahead. It consisted of caves and simple tents. At least a dilapidated wooden fence surrounded the outside, and there was an altar in the middle.

Take a closer look at the things placed on the altar, even judging by Tang Zhao's current very strong psychological endurance, they are still a bit disgusting.

Several human beings were completely dismembered, disemboweled, and swaggeringly placed on a gray-white stone. The stone was surrounded by clotted blood, and there were even many human organs scattered around. The unspeakable stench was far away. can smell.

This kind of situation is unbearable for any normal creature, and Tang Zhao has already sentenced this group of jackals to death.

Their unspeakable worship of the demon lord is second to none. To be honest, Tang Zhao just doesn't like this kind of creature that engages in cruelty and killing.

He can understand hunting humanoid creatures in order to fill their stomachs, because many creatures have no concept of morality, and they will starve to death if they don't eat. In this case, cannibalism is reasonable for many creatures What should be—it’s nothing more than the law of the jungle, whether they cannibalize people or eat sheep, there is no difference in their eyes, as long as they can fill their stomachs.

These jackals have an IQ similar to that of humans, but they don't have any moral values ​​that intelligent creatures should have. In order to please their gods, they don't mind making bloody killings to any extent.

In the eyes of Tang Zhao, such a race should not exist at all, and it is better to destroy it as soon as possible.

After investigating the general layout of the Wolf man camp, Tang Zhao chose to go directly to the cave of the Wolf man chief and regained his original size.

In less than half a minute, the trolls who were standing by outside heard a shrill siren from inside the camp.

The three fat and white trolls looked at each other, and in the end they all believed that the outstanding Tang Zhao would undoubtedly win the final victory in the next series of battles.

Gritting their teeth, the three trolls rushed out and joined the battle.

There is actually not much to say about the battle situation, because it is completely one-sided.

The cave environment is narrow, and it is as simple as chopping melons and vegetables for Tang Zhao to go deep into it.The jackals couldn't stop him at all, and any jackals who stood in his way would be knocked into the air by him.

In the end, Tang Zhao found the chief gnoll, who was mingling among ordinary gnolls, and wanted to take advantage of Tang Zhao's slack to sneak out directly.

But it was a pity that his physique was a whole circle bigger than the surrounding gnolls, and he could clearly smell the smell of the demon scroll on his body, so he couldn't hide it at all.

Ignoring the tickling attacks of a group of gnolls, Tang Zhao came to the chief gnoll, pointed his gigantic claws at the chief, and his eyes were full of threats.

【You have ten seconds, you know exactly what to do. 】

It is estimated that the chief gnoll had been looking for a chance to surrender a long time ago. As soon as Tang Zhao used his psychic ability to speak out, the other party simply chose to throw away the weapon in his hand and knelt on the ground to express his surrender and submission.
