The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 286 Enemy Shadows (Three chapters in one, please vote!)

In Green Lake Village, all the backbones of the clan were summoned, and Allen solemnly and heartbrokenly told a piece of news that deeply shocked everyone.

"The Auror mine was attacked by a group of bandits. A Xiao and the goblin warriors stationed at the mine were all sacrificed. Only the dwarf you see now is left."

There was an uproar among the tribesmen present. No one dared to believe the authenticity of the news. They all wanted to speak, but they stopped talking under Allen's calm eyes and listened quietly to Allen's next words.

The reason why Dwarf Goblin Thomas was able to survive was thanks to his weak combat power. He was originally just a cook in the mine who was transferred to be responsible for catering. During the sudden attack, he, as the goblin with the lowest combat power in the field, I can only hide and peek. When he realized that the situation was not good and the entire mine was in dire straits, the only thing he could do was to sneak into the kitchen he was familiar with, grab a few bags of bread and flour, and then turn around and escape into the mine.

Hundreds of slaves suddenly rioted, and a group of powerful cavalry led them. Tompus knew that if he wanted to survive, escaping into the wilderness hills was not the best option. Before being accepted by the Green Field Tribe, dwarf goblins like Tomps had a deep understanding of escape and hiding, which allowed him to escape and even collect the most needed items while hiding. of food.

"A group of very powerful enemies appeared in our Green Field Plains. Their true identity is still unclear, but according to what Thomas saw that night, the opponent was a powerful cavalry team, numbering between 20-24 people. .”

"The leader of the opponent should have the strength of a high-level combat class, and most of the rest of the cavalry are advanced, so they are a huge threat to our tribe!!"

"A Xiao and Heitou were killed in the raid by this cavalry. At the same time, they also took away hundreds of slaves from my mine."

"..."

Finding Tomps was indeed a great help to Allen. The wilderness was too big, and it was really difficult to find a small team that wanted to hide in the dark in this vast wilderness. In the past two months, Allen and Hua Shen had made such moves, but in the end there were no clues. It was not until the appearance of Thomas, a living person, that the mystery was finally solved.

Cavalry is an unfamiliar term in the minds of the wilderness people in the fringe areas. Allen himself was only in the Magic Night Forest on the border of the Elf Kingdom. He had the honor to witness an elf army strangle a group of raiders, and he had a glimpse of the elf cavalry. heroic figure.

Around the Green Field Plain, it was so difficult to support oneself and the tribe, let alone support a group of useless mounts. So far, Green Lake Village has only raised 4-5 pack horses for the long journey between Thornburg and Green Lake Village. As for the daily transportation work in the village, it is basically done by this group of muscular men in the clan. According to Allen, this not only exercises everyone's body, but also does not waste useless food.

However, according to Thomas's description, the lethality and destructive power displayed by this cavalry group killed advanced warriors such as A Xiao and Heitou on the spot. Although the opponent's losses were not without, in comparison, the strength and destructive power they displayed was indeed not something that a small tribe in the wilderness could match.

Especially the opponent's mobility, it is much easier to ride in than to travel on two legs, and at the same time, a lot of energy can be saved.

"So from now on, except for necessary agricultural activities, our people will be prohibited from leaving the village."

"The hunting team's outings for cruising and hunting have also stopped. All warriors from the clan are on standby!"

Although we have figured out the identity of the opponent who is hiding and hiding in the dark, there is still one problem that has not been solved, and that is where the opponent's hiding place is.

What Thomas finally secretly peeped from the mine was that the other party took the men from the mine to the west after the war. However, the area to the west was too wide, and Allen would probably find nothing even if he wanted to search. Moreover, the only ones in the clan who can carry out this search mission and have the ability to protect themselves are Allen, Flower Snake, and the just-adult Irene. Assigning other people to go out to search is more likely to become the opponent's prey, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Therefore, after thinking for a long time, Allen could only use the most conservative method to ensure the safety of the tribe.

"Anyone who dares to leave the village without any reason, Hua She and Mauro, will be severely punished by me, as long as you can breathe."

"Do you hear me clearly?"

"clear!!"

The crowd dispersed, and soon everyone in Green Lake Village had a look of uneasiness on their faces.

The camellias and the snakes remained, as well as Philip, a clever human being.

"Camellia, go and tell the outsiders outside the village that the plains are not peaceful recently and tell them to be careful."

Allen suddenly thought of the group of outsiders outside the village who were tempted by the delicious food, so he left Camellia behind, gave her a few instructions, and asked her to hand it over to the group of outsiders.

The composition of outsiders is complex. Allen does not want to bring them to the village for protection, but their contribution to the village's economy is not small. He can only do this. The rest depends on their own luck. .

After Camellia left, Hua She and Phillip were the only ones left. Allen put down his mask and showed a tired look.

"It's not a big deal for us to be cowering like this all the time!"

Hua She felt this. Although he understood the face of the black hand in the dark, he turned around and looked at their shortcomings, and there seemed to be no solution. If they could find the opponent's stronghold, the Green Field Tribe might be able to sneak over with all their elites and capture them all, but now it seems that it is not that easy to find the opponent's lair.

"Don't worry, they won't hide for long."

Allen also made a calculation in his mind, and at this time he was not so confused.

"How's it going? Have you figured it out?"

Suddenly, Allen turned his eyes to Phillip aside and asked a question without thinking.

"Well, their approximate consumption should be this amount."

Phillip nodded and handed Allen a piece of papyrus with equations sparsely arranged on it.

"Is that much? It looks like the other party will take action soon."

Allen was a little surprised, but considering the intelligence information he had collected and what he had learned from asking Tompus in detail, this number was only common sense.

"What are you talking about?"

Hua She was confused, couldn't help but be curious, and asked with a frown.

"We are talking about how much food these enemies in the dark consume in a day!!"

After Allen got the answer he wanted, he felt much more relaxed. At this time, with a little bit of relief on his face, he solved Hua She's doubts.

"The numbers above are a summary of the information we have collected over the past two months, as well as the mine information we got from Tompus after we found him."

"The other party is obviously plundering the population. Although I don't know why they need so many prisoners, I do know a problem they are currently facing: food."

"..."

It turns out that Allen's collection of intelligence along the way has these uses. Hua She suddenly realized it after Allen's explanation.

The Green Field Tribe has developed smoothly in recent years, but the burden on Allen's shoulders has also become heavier, especially as the population of the tribe increases, the food consumed increases countless times.

Based on the current population of more than 1600 people in Green Lake Village, the daily food consumption is at least 3000 pounds, which is more than one million pounds of food a year.

Nowadays, Green Lake Village's main food crop has changed from naturally grown nuts to artificially grown oats. A single nut tree can only produce hundreds of pounds of nuts at a time, which is no longer able to meet the daily needs of Green Lake Village. Planting oats on one acre of land can yield 5-600 pounds of grain at a time, which is considered a good harvest. After all, there are many hazards such as insect pests and bird tides in the wilderness, and there are only a few auxiliary methods such as manure. It is considered good to be able to achieve such an output.

Based on the output of the wilderness climate in two seasons a year, at least 1000 acres of land are required to grow the food needed by the Greenfield tribe's population.

However, Green Lake is not very big to begin with. It is only about the size of 2-3 football fields. The previous reclamation of hundreds of acres of land has caused the water level of Green Lake to drop a lot. If we continue to cultivate new land indiscriminately, it may be like Druid Master Philip said, directly letting the Green Lake dry up, which will cause more land to lose its irrigation source and become barren again.

In the end, Allan Mauro and the others could only dig up and down the Zhuoshui River along the Zhuoshui River, while digging a reservoir in a suitable area to accumulate the rainfall that occurred once every ten days and a half, while at the same time spreading out scattered pieces of land.

Even the Green Field Tribe, which has been developing for so many years, has to work so hard to solve the problem of food and land. So how can this group of enemies suddenly have so much time and energy to cultivate land and grow food.

In the past two months, every time Allen found an empty tribe or settlement, he carefully counted the houses and buildings left by the tribe, roughly estimated the population of the other tribe, and gave it back to Philip. In addition, what Thomas saw this time was that most of the slaves were taken away by the other party, which proved that his previous guess was not wrong. Then the question became, how could the other party feed such a large population!

It is precisely because the Green Field Plain is too barren that there are countless scattered tribes living there. Otherwise, there would be no way to support too many indigenous people.

It is impossible for the other party to prepare large quantities of food in advance and store it up. Otherwise, with the eyes and ears of the Green Field Tribe, it is impossible not to detect some clues. The Tagan Desert here cuts off the connection with the Elf Kingdom, and is too far away from the Human and Orc Kingdoms. It is almost impossible to transport food in large quantities. If it is really done, the scale will definitely not be too small. , it is naturally impossible to hide your whereabouts.

Thinking about it this way, they captured so many people that just one day of eating horse chews would be too much for them. The final result would be either to slaughter all the hard-earned captives, or to starve the captives. Survival caused riots and fighting again.

"So it is."

Flower Snake's eyes flashed and she nodded repeatedly.

"So, I think the other party is likely to make a big move in the coming time, and we need to prepare in advance."

After Allen had Philip's calculation data, he became even more determined: "Hua Shen, go to the Ivan tribe and the Cangmang tribe, tell them the news, and let them be careful." Ivan Boban, the leader of the jackals, and Lasko, the chief of the lizard people of the Wild tribe, are the younger brothers who have followed the Green Field tribe closely over the years. They have a very good relationship with the Green field tribe. Thinking about it, the enemy this time may be a bit tricky, Ai Lun felt the need to make use of every ounce of power around him.

"it is good."

Flower Snake nodded.

At this time, the western edge of the Green Field Plain is a stretch of mountains. After climbing over the overlapping mountains, you can see an endless sea.

There is a hidden valley in the mountains. The atmosphere of filth and revenge envelopes this valley. On both sides of the valley are Guanghua steep mountain walls. The mountain walls more than ten meters high are like natural cages, blocking the escape of creatures in the valley. hope. As soon as you catch sight of the valley, you can see the swaying, imageless wilderness natives living everywhere: jackals, lizard people, kobolds... all the ethnic groups that can be seen in the green plains can be seen here. On the ground were the bones of the natives who had been chewed out of their flesh and blood, as well as the mess left by the natives who had temporarily lived in the valley and defecated everywhere.

The entrance and exit of the valley were blocked by groups of faceless knights wearing gray-brown steel armor, staring at every move in the valley with stern eyes.

As Allen judged, this enemy hiding in the dark did not prepare any food for this group of prisoners. In addition to the food and supplies they looted when they attacked these tribes and settlements, hundreds of prisoners in the valley wanted to To fill his stomach, he could only eat the corpses of the indigenous tribesmen brought back by the cavalry. After the corpses were eaten, it was the turn of the weak, old, injured and vulnerable among the possessed.

The entire valley seemed quiet at this time, but no one could guess what bloody and cruel things might happen in the next second; at this time, the prisoners in the valley seemed peaceful, but in fact most of them were squinting their eyes. , quietly observing the people around and far away, no one is trustworthy.

Outside the valley, in a makeshift hut, the strong cavalry leader who was fighting with A Xiao that night, who was slightly inferior, finally took off his dark and exquisite helmet, revealing an ordinary human face under the helmet. .

This is a middle-aged man in his 40s with an ordinary face. If he is thrown into the crowd, he will hardly attract anyone's attention. Except for the crazy and violent aura that often circulates in his eyes, it makes people feel inexplicably frightened.

"The flesh and blood altar will be built in half a day. At that time, we will directly perform sacrifices and open the passage. It has been delayed for too long. I am afraid that our group's progress will be much later than other groups."

The middle-aged man was talking to a beautiful woman wearing a black robe with many silver accessories. There was a snake-shaped sword on the woman's waist. She was leaning charmingly on a simple wooden chair. She was in a daze, her graceful body exuding an aura of temptation.

As they bowed their heads, Danai, the former jackal supervisor of the mine, stood by with his head bowed in a dignified manner, not daring to speak.

"Well, you can take care of these things. Call me when the sacrifice is held. Damn the weather!"

The woman stretched out her jade hand lazily, and lightly slapped her neck twice. A seductive fragrance blew over her, making the human knight and jackal Danai swallow their saliva.

After receiving the instructions, the human knight left. After leaving the hut, he put on his armor again and walked majestically to the valley to take out the obsidian altar that had been under construction. Compared with the altar in Caressing City, the flesh altar here is much smaller. After all, there are not enough materials and sacrifices, so the passage they want to open this time can only pass through an army of no more than 500 demons at first.

It may seem like a trivial matter, but this army can only march first, and then use the remote location of the Green Field Plain to allow the vanguard army to calmly collect more sacrifices and summon more troops. Come and meet here.

Then, when the size of the demon army reaches a certain number, they can sweep across the entire wilderness and bring the bodies and souls of the indigenous residents who have lived on this land for countless thousands of years back to the abyss to complete their killing feast. .

As for these evil god believers who helped the abyssal army cross the material world, their gods will naturally give corresponding feedback. I believe this feedback is enough to make them 'satisfied'.

The sacrifice was opened, and the flesh altar was only more than ten meters in diameter. As the sound of killing rang out, a 20-man cavalry team charged back and forth in the valley. Countless blood and lamentations filled the remote valley. The slaves and the innocent wilderness natives who originally thought they had welcomed a savior to escape the misery of the mines, but now their eyes were full of despair, anger, and resentment, but they showed no sign of resistance in front of this powerful cavalry team. force.

"Ah, the smell of blood and the breath of despair are always so pleasant!!"

In front of the altar of flesh and blood, guarded by a team of shield warriors, a human woman was about to start praying devoutly. She took a deep breath of the bloody breath in the valley, showing a crazy and obsessed expression, and then placed the crystal in her hand on the sculpture in the center of the altar. In front of his forehead, a mysterious wave began to spread around the altar.

The bodies of the indigenous people, which were still squirming, even alive, were picked up by the cavalry team with spears, dragged by ropes, and thrown into the slowly rotating obsidian millstones, where they turned into balls of flesh amid the wails. , energy, and finally formed a pillar of light that shot straight into the sky.

After the light pillar, in the halo fluctuations, one by one, the abyss demons slowly walked out of the light pillar. Most of the low-level demons in the abyss, such as the Coward Demon, the Slaughter Demon, the Bagula Demon, etc., and the remaining few were It is the middle-level demon as the boss. There is only a horned demon with sharp horns on its head, a vlo demon with a pair of bat-like flesh wings behind it, and a halo of flames that appears and disappears on its body. A reincarnation demon that looks like an earthly beast.

Until the end, a mad war demon who was over 3 meters tall, with a strong build and a bone armor on his body, and carrying a long heavy sword made of abyssal iron on his back, slowly revealed his true appearance. A faint aura of strong men filled the valley.

The abyss demons had just set foot in the material world and were very excited. When they looked at the group of evil god believers in front of them who were wearing heavy armor and exuding a seductive aura, their eyes were full of madness and desire. They might attack these group of evil spirits at any time. The new flesh and blood of the material world attacks. It wasn't until this mad war demon appeared that the crazy expressions of the middle and low-level demons gradually subsided. They just continued to spy on these evil god believers, and then extended their evil claws into the valley. The dozen or so captives who survived could barely satisfy their cravings and celebrate the joy of coming to the material world.

"Master Feiluoer, thank you for your hard work."

After the mad war demon arrived, the charming woman restrained the charm and laziness on her face, and put on an awe-inspiring face to face the mad war demon. This powerful mad war demon is only one step away from entering the legendary realm. This time he took the initiative to lead his team to the material world, hoping to devour the souls and flesh of a group of intelligent creatures in the material world to help him advance.

"kindness."

The Mad War Demon responded to the woman by raising his nose slightly, and at the same time took a deep breath of the not-so-pleasant smell in the valley. Compared to the everlasting sulfur smell in the endless abyss, this unpleasant smell is almost like perfume. Generally tempting, not to mention that the killing just now made the valley reverberate with blood, despair and other auras that demons like very much.

"What's going on around here? Are there any large tribes?"

After Mad Fighting Demon Feiluoer lost his mind for a while, he regained his thoughts. The first thing he did was to understand the surrounding situation of the location in front of him.

"Sir, there is a goblin tribe 500 miles east of us with a population of more than a thousand people. Apart from this, there are no other tribes worthy of your attention within a thousand miles."

"Further 3000 miles to the southeast, there is a powerful kobold thunder tribe with more than 8000 people and two legendary strongmen sitting in charge..."

The human female Vicki spread out a map and pointed at the marked places on the map, introducing the surrounding situation to the demon who had come from afar.

"Is there anyone strong enough in this goblin tribe who is worthy of my help?"

Feiluoer didn't care about anything on the map, just stared at the map location marked Green Lake Village, and asked frivolously.

The crazy warriors pursue craziness and excitement, and most like to fight against strong men. In their opinion, this way they can gain the attention of the abyss, and then gain the opportunity to be promoted. Feiluoer's biggest goal during this trip is to break through to Legend. By then, he will be able to have a place on the 46th level of the abyss and become a lord.

For this goal, Feiluoer hopes to find strong men to challenge in the material world, and then devour the souls and bodies of these strong men to break through the current shackles.

"Yes, the tribe's leader, Bugbear Alan Witt, is said to be a powerful level 15 warrior, and is also looking for his own path to legend."

Vicki's intelligence was flawed, and the barren and declining environment on the Green Field Plain prevented Allen, a strong man, from really taking action with all his strength for several years.

Last time, while the other party was in the tribal competition stage, Vicki sent a team of wilderness tribesmen disguised as adventurers to gather information. At the same time, she asked a level 15 bugbear believer to test the strength of the leader Alan. If this subordinate could directly kill the green-skinned leader at that time, that would be great; even if he could not kill the opponent, his subordinates could still obtain a lot of information that could not be seen from the outside.

In the final result, the level 15 bugbear minions were chopped into two pieces by the opponent lightly. Vicky used this as a reference to estimate that Allen's strength should have also reached the peak of level 15.

But in fact, Allen's real level is only level 14, and he is still one step away from level 15.

"Oh? Then what are you waiting for!!"

After hearing this piece of information, Feiluoer was overjoyed, and then he roared in the sky. Hundreds of abyss demons who were tearing, chewing and eating all raised their heads and followed the sound to the leader of their team.

"You lucky guys, don't just enjoy yourself and forget your mission!!"

"To the east, there is a target rich in flesh and blood and soul. Go and defeat it for me and bring me their flesh and blood and soul!!!"

"kill!!"

"Aww!!!"

“Whaaaaaaaaaaaah!!”

Instigated by Feiluoer, a group of demons fell into madness and excitement, and their repressed chaotic nature was revealed again. Following the direction of the opponent's finger, they rushed out of this secluded valley and began to run wildly towards the distant east.

"Quack, quack, Feynman world, I'm here, Feiluoer!!!"

After roaring for a while, Fighting Demon Feiluoer roared with cruel and excited eyes. As his legs pressed hard on the ground, his whole body was like a cannonball rising into the sky. When he fell again, he was only more than ten meters away. Out of bounds.

"Sir, what should we do?"

The leader of the human cavalry patted the frightened horse at his feet and came to the priestess Vicki.

"Follow me."

Vicki rubbed the bridge of her nose and said in annoyance.
