My players are so fierce.

Chapter 233 232. The great savior of the jackal [asking for monthly vote 710]

"Zhuo! These NPCs are so cunning!"

Ashina-chan was quite unhappy and complained to Lumina next to her:

"Can't I use money to buy their Gnoll Gladiator? I still have to do the mission, but I still want to improve my results on the standings. Now I have been transferred back to kill ghouls. I hate these stinky people. Something!

Now do Hogg's hidden mission and replace him with a gladiator, only to get 100 ghoul claws for one?Isn’t this too deceptive? "

"It's okay. Isn't that what sequence tasks are all like? One link within another."

Lumina didn't have many complaints.

She looked at the mission she had just been given by Dorothy. The boss of the Blood Rat Gang didn't want them to spend money, as long as they helped solve the Blood Rat Gang's troubles, it sounded like a classic RPG mission chain.

"But we won't get any points if we stay here and kill the ghouls."

Xiao Weiming was still unhappy.

She said gloomily:
"There are awesome rewards for the top ten! There are also rewards from our group point pool. Sister Pomegranate is now in the first place. She will definitely not be willing to give up."

"So wouldn't it be nice not to let her give up?"

Lumina pouted and said:

"It's just a ghoul. You and I, Mrs. Water, can handle it when we come back. We can also brush up Mrs. Water's skill proficiency so she can prepare for the Black Iron Trial, and let Lanhua accompany Pomegranate to continue to brush up her jackal points.

Hogg just needs a group of loyal subordinates, and the number does not need to be too many.

It will take us two or three days to finish it, and then we can go back and continue to earn points for the Jackals, so there will be no delay.

Let me tell Orchid and Mrs. Water about this first. You take Hogg to the gladiatorial arena. The gladiators tonight are all jackals. Let him pick a few that he likes. "

"Ow."

Xiao Ashina nodded and waved to Hogg Bone-Gnasher, who was not far away and was covering himself tightly with a hood.

She and this skinny jackal could still chat together, and Hogg truly regarded little Ashina as his "dog-headed strategist" and would always ask her some questions.

The reason why they fit so well together is probably because the two people are about the same height?
Xiao Ashina is the shortest among all the players at 155, while Hogg is the skinniest among the gnolls, with a maximum height of no more than 160.

In fact, Lord Murphy felt that this jackal was probably "naturally disabled" or suffering from dwarfism. In short, it was not much bigger than a kobold.

Lumina did not go to the main venue of Fight Club, which was already filled with NPCs and some players who were keen on PVP who came to watch the excitement.

After the Blood Rat Gang took over the place, they also made "professional" improvements to the previous betting process. There was also a well-spoken guy as the host, and the crowd cheered.

Lumina didn't like this kind of fanatical gladiatorial match very much. She shared the current situation with the other three teammates through team chat in a secluded place in the first-level sewer where there was no longer much danger.

After hearing that the two of them triggered the mission of the Blood Rat Gang in the sewer, Sister Pomegranate replied with some regret:

"Forget it, you just wait there, we'll go back and help right now. It's not interesting to refresh the standings, but our 'exclusive' side plot is more interesting."

"You're just pretending to be generous, I haven't seen you let go of your competitiveness."

Orchid complained:
"You and I will stay here and continue to collect points. It will be fine if Madam Shui goes back. Lumina is right. With our current combat power, this task can be completed in two or three days at most, and it won't delay too much. "

"You little fools, why do you think we have to do this task ourselves?"

Mrs. Shui obviously didn't like the dirty environment of the sewer. She said in a puzzled tone:

"This mission is for us to help Hog Gnaw form his own clan, and it's not for us to be nannies for that jackal. Do you think we have to continue to protect him after we have worked so hard to replace him with the first batch of warriors in the clan? Is it until it becomes a force?

Isn't this idea too stupid? "

"what?"

Lumina, who was called "idiot", asked back:

"So, what do you think?"

"Just replace it with three or four elite jackals to form the first batch of clan warriors!"

Mrs. Water said:

"Let the rest of the people get it back on their own! Lord Murphy wants to train it to become a real Jackal chief. How can this be easy? It has to gather its own clan and become the imprisoned Jackal." Gladiator's savior!
Instead of relying on our help throughout the process.

Hog Gnaw itself is one of the weaker gnolls. If he wants his future tribesmen to convince him and establish his initial authority, he will have to endure hardships.

I don't even think you two are needed for this task.

Lumina and Ashina will go kill the ghoul now, switch it to the first elite gladiator and leave it alone. Prepare weapons and protective gear for them, and let them go down to the second floor of the sewer to kill the monsters. Then get more gladiators from Dorothy.

They are jackals!
The combat effectiveness of a single target is much stronger than that of ordinary ghouls. Letting them form a group and snowball by themselves is the correct solution to this task. Do you understand?If their progress goes well, there should be at least a dozen people under Hogg's command by the time we complete the first phase of the gnoll elimination.

Therefore, my suggestion is to leave Xiao Ashina there to help at most, and you can come back here quickly to continue the main line. "

"!"

Lumina replied quietly after a few seconds:
"I feel like my IQ has been crushed again. You, a housewife, have gone too far. Are you so easy to drive away wolves and tigers?"

"It's not that you are stupid, it's that you are lazy. Your tactical diligence cannot conceal your strategic laziness."

Mrs. Shui said ruthlessly:
"You haven't considered a more efficient way at all. In the real world, when a villain supports a puppet, he doesn't do everything himself. You are the person in charge of this matter and you are not a nursery nurse.
Are you really going to treat this as a training game?

That's not impossible, but what serious person would raise a jackal for fun? "

"Stop scolding, stop scolding, the children will become stupid."

Lumina wailed and was scolded for a few more words before hanging up the communication. She sent a private message to Ashina, who was watching the action in the fight club and even placed a bet, asking her to come over quickly to kill monsters.

Xiao Ashina looked at the exciting battle in the arena below with regret. She stood up, threw a small money bag to Hogg, and said:
"You continue reading here. This money is enough for you to place two bets. Although you are too weak to be a good barbarian, I think you are very smart and flexible. Maybe you should learn to make good use of the power of wisdom and dexterity. .”

After saying that, she picked up her shotgun and left, leaving Hogg, who was wrapped in a robe, alone among a group of enthusiastic spectators.

To be honest, it felt terrible for a skinny gnoll to be surrounded by so many humans.

Hogg felt that he might be swarmed to death by these guys in the next second, but he touched the computing orb hanging on his chest, which seemed to give him a little more confidence.

It has been selected by Lord Murphy to become the grandson of the "King of Bone Biters".

It has a new identity and has been sheltered in Lord Murphy's territory. Now it is time to think about how to form its own clan. These elite barbarians who were captured and used as slaves to fight for human entertainment are their future. of tribesmen.

Hog pulled up his hood, revealing only two gray-green eyes on the cloth covering his face.

It stared intently at the arena below amid the piercing noise, where a battle between a jackal barbarian and a ferocious ghoul was being staged as a "warm-up".

His compatriot wore ill-fitting leather armor and struggled to maneuver around the ghoul's claws with a sword he was not accustomed to using.

It has been told that it can only survive if it wins.

What a cruel rule!It is even more cruel than hunting and robbing in the wilderness. Failure in hunting is nothing more than starvation, but the consequence of losing here is to be used as food by ghouls.

Lord Murphy's advice to himself is to find those gladiators who can fight three battles without dying to become his clan members. Those who can survive three battles in such a brutal battle must be the best among the best.

In the past, such elite barbarians would not bother to talk to this weak jackal, but now, he holds the power in his hands to rescue them from the hell of gladiatorial combat!
what!
Hogg's mouth moved under his hood.

It knows that it must make good use of this precious power, and it may not be able to conquer those unruly elite barbarians, so maybe it should start with the "easy mode" first?
The wise gnoll made up his mind.

It saw the compatriots below struggling to defeat the ghouls, but was about to face a second battle with the veterans of the Cadman People's Army.

The good news is that this time it’s not a fight to the death, just a winner.

The opportunity is coming!

Hogg squeezed through the crowd and came to the Blood Rat Gang's betting point. He threw the money bag in his hand on the table and said hoarsely:

“All-in, your veterans win.”

"Ok?"

Old Pete, a member of the Blood Rat Gang who was responsible for collecting money, keenly noticed the furry claws under Hogg's hood. He was shocked and was about to call someone, but saw the other person grab the calculation orb on his chest and wave it at him. .

Ok.

This is the recognized "one's own". "Hey, this Scarlet Castle is really a strange place. Why do vampires allow jackals to show up here? You should really thank Mr. Murphy for showing mercy. When the blood vultures were in power, you would definitely be stewed into a jackal. Human soup.”

Old Pete grinned and sneered at Hogg, but still accepted the bet.

Visitors are guests and must be treated with care.

This is the admonishment of Sister Dorothy.

Ten minutes later, the beaten and bloody jackal barbarian was dragged back to the gladiatorial preparation area by the blood rat gang. As a black iron-level barbarian, it defeated the ghoul but was fighting with the veteran. Lost miserably.

The veteran didn't kill it.

After all, it is just a warm-up, there is no need to get to the point of seeing blood.

Dorothy couldn't really use the jackal barbarians on hand as cannon fodder. Training gladiators also required costs. The badly beaten barbarian lay limp on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time. It seemed to be crying out for itself. sad fate.

But in this human city, it can’t find any companions to save it. Human beings will not let it die so easily. It will survive but will live in battles day after day until one day it dies in a certain place. In the opponent's hands.

"Hey! Do you want to live?"

Just as the miserable barbarian soldier struggled to get up and lick the blood on his fur, a voice suddenly sounded from the shadows behind him, causing the scratched jackal to turn around with difficulty.

It saw a short man in a hood walking toward it, clutching a bag of money.

But this isn't human!

The jackal's keen sense of smell allowed him to smell the same scent as his own on the guy in front of him. Is this a jackal?
"You probably don't know me, but that doesn't matter."

Hogg used his claws to pull open his hood. He rolled his green eyes and looked at the novice gladiator who had won one victory and one defeat before him.

It grinned its mouth full of sharp teeth and said:
"I can get you out!"

"Ow?"

The jackal gladiator's eyes widened, looking not very smart.

"I made an agreement with the boss of the Blood Rat Gang. For every fifty ghouls I kill, one compatriot will leave the arena. This is difficult, but I think I should do something for my compatriots."

Hogg took out a piece of bacon from his arms and threw it to the gladiator in front of him. The latter grabbed it and started biting it. It was in urgent need of energy recovery.

"I know you will have a duel later, and the enemy is an astral lynx."

Hogg whispered:
"You have to win to survive until I rescue you. I'm going to find trouble with those ghouls now. Thanks to your victory just now, I only need to kill 49 ghouls in exchange for your freedom. .

But you must also make an agreement with me.

After I get you out, you have to stay here and kill more ghouls with me.

You know, humans are purging us, and our powerful compatriots will be sent here in a steady stream.

We have to get them all out. I lost my clan just like you, but maybe we gladiators can form a new clan. "

"You don't look like a Gnoll!"

When the wounded gladiator finished eating the bacon, he pulled a chipped tooth from his mouth, which made his whole body tremble with pain.

But it still said intermittently:

"You are more like a cunning human. Bah, who are you, the rotten meat we eat? Are you sure you can rescue me? Why don't those humans throw you in too? You traitor!"

"Don't be stupid, do you think you are the first jackal in this arena?"

The cunning Hogg cursed half-truthfully:

"What I have experienced is beyond your imagination, and it is even more impossible for you to escape from here on my own. I used the blood of my enemies to buy my freedom, you idiot.

Listen up, my name is Hogg!

Whether you believe it or not, I will rescue you, but the prerequisite is that you cannot die under the claws of that astral lynx, do you understand?I found you a weapon you like better, and I hope it can save your life. "

A bloody black flail was thrown to the gladiator in front of him.

This is the favorite weapon of the Jackals. It is powerful and has a long attack range, which can give full play to the Jackals' brute strength and agility.

"Well I hate you!"

The gladiator grabbed the flail. It glared at Hogg, but still whispered:

"Thanks."

"Very good. You seem a little smarter than the average jackal. No wonder you were able to save a life from those crazy warriors."

Hogg let out a weird laugh unique to jackals, and said:

"One last question, what's your name?"

"Big bones."

The Gnoll Gladiator whispered:
"My name is Big Bones!"

"Uh, that's not even a name, you idiot!"

Hogg shook his head and said as he returned to the shadows:

"Your name is Nash! Do you understand? From today on, your name will be Nash. Don't die here. Nash, wait until I come back to save you."

Under the gaze of Jackal Nash, Hogg disappeared into the gladiator preparation area.

It certainly didn't like its sullen compatriot.

But even its brain can guess that this compatriot must have some unusual relationship.At this time, outside the gladiator preparation area, "Razor" Dorothy looked at the money bag handed over by Hogg with strange eyes, and she said:

"Are you sure you want this? It lost just now, and it may not win the third game. I thought you would choose someone more powerful."

"I'm too weak."

Hogg whispered:
"I can't control powerful guys. In the gnoll clan, the weak are not qualified to command the strong. Now is not the time to ask for those powerful guys. I have raised hyenas, and I know that if you want to control them, you have to train them from the young. .”

"Well, you are really smart."

Dorothy shook the money bag in her hand and said:

"But I made an agreement with your human friend that this is free of charge. You can take it back."

"You are wrong. I didn't give you the money to buy them."

Hogg shook his head.

A cunning light flashed in its green eyes, and it whimpered:
"I want to ask you to help me, change the order, let them fight, but don't let them die so quickly, let them suffer, make them miserable, let them expect someone to save them! In your human words, I hope you Cooperate with me. Uh, what's that word?

drama? "

"Oh, you want me to help you cheat?"

Dorothy's eyes became subtle.

She looked the jackal up and down, shook her head and said:
"Then this little money is not enough. This is a matter of risking the reputation of the Blood Rat Gang, but there is one thing in you that I really need."

"Ok?"

Hogg raised his head and saw Dorothy throwing the eagle claw knife in her hand to it and said:

"Join the Blood Rat Gang, Gnoll. I need people now, especially a cunning guy like you. I can lower the standards for my own people. 40 ghouls for one black iron gnoll, 120 ghouls Replace an elite with 20 ghouls for a kobold.

Of course, the premise is that they must survive three gladiatorial battles for me.

After the underground ghouls are dealt with, I will give you weapons and supplies and send you away. I will also personally train you to become an excellent jackal thief.

Your slight stature and cunning nature are well suited to this line of work.

make a deal? "
