Serious Witch's Travel Book
Page 68
In order to solve the problem faster and better, when Catwoman took the initiative to greet her, Gnicia also began to prepare to deal with these miscellaneous fish monsters that should have appeared at the beginning of the previous volume honestly.
She is a druid and a spellcaster, and when a spellcaster faces these low-end monsters, the most appropriate way is of course to be graceful...
fight.
The incantations, materials, postures and rituals are too cumbersome, she doesn't want to wait until she has prepared [-]% to [-]% and suddenly be knocked down by these green skins and brought back to the lair to eat meat.
The simplest and most handy spell technique for druids is "growth".
Unlike the very standard wizards who use the wind of magic element, the essence of druid's power comes from nature and the many goblins and natural spirits that exist attached to nature, so druid's spells are therefore divided into two major systems , "Four Seasons" and "Psychic".
Of course, "wildness" is also one of Druid's specialty areas, but Gnicia has not been able to get into such a profound field. According to "life", she is not wild enough. This kind of gentle girl is It is impossible to get the approval of the spirit of the beast.
What she uses is the power of "Flourishing Summer" in the "Four Seasons" system. All things reach the peak of growth in the hot summer. Its power is full of courage and is an excellent offensive weapon.
Of course, its form of expression was not accompanied by such a gorgeous light effect. When Gnicia's hand touched the trunk of the nearest tree beside her, the thick trunk began to grow abruptly—it moved at a rapid pace. The speed multiplies horizontally, but in less than ten seconds, a wooden branch that fits perfectly in her hand and is about two arms long is horizontal to the girl's hand.
She lightly grasped it, and the well-proportioned thick wooden stick was disconnected from the tree trunk with a crackling sound.
There were about ten forest monsters that appeared on the road, and Catwoman attracted most of them, and when Gnicia strategically shifted and prepared weapons for herself, this agile alien warrior had already killed them alone half of.
Maybe it was because the process was too fast, and the forest demon still couldn't react to the situation, and two of them rushed towards Gnicia, and the girl was not polite, she still held the resentment from a month ago, just Hitting wooden stakes in the sanctuary can't dispel anything; when the forest monster who can only charge upright came within her attack range, Gnicia took a step towards its head with her relatively long stick. After knocking down, the forest demon who was being targeted instinctively avoided it, but only halfway out of the way:
The thick wooden stick still hit its temple, and the short but intense "sun" power was attached to the weapon spawned by the force of nature. The place where it collided burst into a small-scale violent burst of light in the dark night. This force turned the eyes of the Lin Yao who hadn't fallen down before, and he collapsed to the ground as if his soul had been sucked out.
"Wow wow wow—"
This is gentle in Gnicia's eyes, but its burst is directed towards the enemy, needless to say how painful it must be to witness the burst of light in the dark, at least the forest monster who followed closely The eyes couldn't bear this kind of torture. It threw down the weapon and fumbled around the nose and eyes with both hands. Gnicia couldn't bear to continue. She raised and lowered the long stick in her hand, and finally changed Sweeping the forest demon's abdomen with a stick.
The sharp-toothed, hideous monster ate the pain, and ran away with an even weirder cry—of course, it then slammed into a tree beside the road, and then fell to the ground... It doesn't matter if Gurney lives or dies Shia's business.
When she finished off the two opponents, Catwoman also caught up with a guy who was trying to run away, and twisted its neck coldly.
Every resident of the Black Forest hates the forest goblins. These low-level monsters that multiply rapidly and live by stealing and plundering are enemies that almost every Black Forest has to face several times in their life. For the orcs who grew up in the world, there is no need to feel any pity for these mindless creatures who live in chaos.
In a short period of time, nine green-skinned monsters fell in disorder on the road, and the rest immediately ran away when they saw the situation was not good, and their speed was as fast as when they rushed over to outflank them.
"It's terrifying..."
Gnicia avoided the blood on the ground, referring both to the monsters and to her fearsome comrade in arms.
Catwoman was frowning and shaking off the blood on the dagger. She didn't seem to take the killing she made seriously at all. Perhaps for her, the death of these monsters was far less important than maintaining her own weapon.
When she got almost enough blood, she put the knife back into its sheath, and pulled Gnicia's wrist: "Let's go."
"It hurts... Take it easy."
Catwoman didn't make a sound, but she did relax a bit in pulling.
"Where are we going?" Gnicia asked her angrily.The girl was still holding the stick in her hand, and she was more or less immersed in the excitement of the first actual battle. Although she didn't have any decent results at all, this was a very valuable experience after all, right?
She even thought of the possibility that the sages would praise her—it was wonderful.
"go home."
"Go to your brother? By the way... Are you a mixed-race family?"
Gnicia suddenly thought of the boy who was walking with the girl, and she suddenly understood why the girl had to wear a cloak and a hood before—the status of orcs in the empire is indeed very delicate, due to the intermittent wars between the two sides over the past few years However, there are generally only two types of orcs that will be seen in the empire: slaves and quasi-slaves.
The imperial people really do not like to see orcs. Whether it is the so-called Germans in the past, the later Vandals, Goths, or the Franks now, the appearance of orcs is always accompanied by war: sometimes the empire takes the initiative to take the advantage. And sometimes the empire is pushed back and beaten to nothing, but no matter whether it is righteous or unjust, the empire's negative publicity towards orcs is always indispensable.
Especially when the Goths almost destroyed the Roman Empire in Italy, the empire began to adopt an extremely high-pressure policy against the orcs that appeared in the areas controlled by the Romans. All its members were demoted to official slaves and put into hard labor camps, although many of them were already naturalized; the rest, like the Goths of the Gaul mountain generation with big tails, and those entrenched in Italy The Goths in the north, etc., took the measure of reservation, that is, they were allowed to own territory, but tribal members were strictly prohibited from leaving the territory as a means of restraint.
The Senate even publicly declared that none of the orcs who walked on two legs without a slave collar in the empire was legal, and any citizen could capture and hunt them privately.Under such circumstances, even a girl, a beastman whose appearance is almost indistinguishable from a human, can only carefully conceal her identity.
"No. No... well, forget it."
Catwoman somehow didn't agree with Gnicia's statement, but she didn't object either.
Just when Gnicia wondered if the two of them had any special ulterior relationship, Catwoman suddenly said: "Go to the Black Forest, I want to take you to see my mother."
"why?"
Gnicia had no objection to being taken into the Black Forest, in fact she might have been able to go faster with a guide.But judging from the girl's attitude all the time, she felt a little bit bad.
"Let my mother give us permission to mate. Ugh."
Catwoman suddenly thought of something, and looked at Gnicia again: "Maybe she will mate with you first, and it will be my turn in the next litter."
"...?"
Five question marks popped up in Gnicia's head.
Chapter 102 018. Rescue
No matter how you say it, the Black Forest is not just going there, they have to face a very real problem first.
"We saved the two gendarmes."
Gnicia grabbed Catwoman's hand instead.
She had to help those two gendarmes... No matter what happened next, at least she had to make sure they were alive.
Gnicia didn't have a whim, but seriously considered this issue.
She is afraid of life and trouble, and has previous bad prejudices against the imperial people. Of course, she is even more afraid of being interrogated. It is of course a good thing if she can avoid the arrest of the military police directly. She was very happy when she left the side of the big tree that tied her, but when she slowly thought about it, she found that the problem was not that simple.
First of all, it was a pity that she had traveled so far before she suddenly remembered that Adria's jade pendant had fallen into the hands of the gendarme, along with her own purse.
Gnicia didn't have enough ability to test the actual value of that thing. In her opinion, at present, she can only roughly confirm that the thing is valuable through the words of other elves.But it is Adria's property after all. From the perspective of the relationship between the two, Gnicia hopes to find a way to return it to Adlia if there is a chance.
Those two gendarmes... If they died, their belongings might be taken away by the forest demon or a passing body picker. If they didn't die, then [-]% of them would eventually fall into the hands of the imperial government. She wanted to get it back as soon as possible It's harder than climbing to the sky.
Furthermore, the fact that she was arrested should not be a whim of wandering soldiers. It sounds like someone reported her for carrying prohibited items... No matter who saw this piece of jade and when it came to The gendarmes arresting people in the border area probably already have a wanted list about her. If they can't get rid of the relationship, it will only get worse and worse in the future. Speaking of Dignesia's instinctive fear of tolerance, she doesn't want her to be arrested in the future. I was arrested by people all over the world.
Besides, I'm afraid she's not the only one involved in this matter, she can just walk away, but what about that kind uncle coachman?
The coachman had a face-to-face meeting with the chiefs of the military police because of her. Although he couldn't help much, if these imperial people were so small-hearted and blamed others for her private escape... the consequences would be disastrous.
So she can't just go away, maybe she should try to help the two gendarmes, maybe this will give her some room for maneuver.
In the worst case, even if this piece of jade is handed over, it can be exchanged for a clean situation, right?
Gnicia managed to make Catwoman stop, but judging from the way the catwoman looked back at her, she might feel that there was something wrong with her mind.
"They must have a warrant for me." Gnicia explained to her, "I can't just leave like this, it will implicate others."
"Kill them."
Catwoman's voice was indifferent and hard, which sounded enough to show that she didn't like humans, at least not imperial soldiers.
"No."
Gnicia hurriedly waved her hand to stop her extreme thoughts.
But Catwoman was still unmoved, she didn't have a strong intention to pull Gnicia away immediately, but the strength in her hands made her attitude very clear.
"It should be—" At this moment, Gnicia quickly remembered what "Power" taught her.
For her new journey, which is not considered successful, but has finally taken the first step, "power" reminds her: her charm itself is also a kind of "power", and it is nothing to rely on others' favor for her to achieve her goal Shady means, she is a woman, and a young girl in her prime, she must learn to use her own capital.
"Just treat it for me, okay? Let's go after we settle the matter here."
Naturally, she wouldn't think about mating or anything like that. Such overly intimate words actually made her feel very ashamed, but in order to achieve a little goal, she had to say some words that people would listen to.
Catwoman was somewhat moved by what she said. Seeing that she was no longer determined to hold her back, Gnicia mustered up her courage and pulled her back instead.
——She can't solve so many forest monsters by herself, she needs a helper.
They ran very fast when they left, but due to physical problems, they were somewhat slower when they returned.
However, the girl's luck is not bad. They only ran more than half of the way, and there were a few shouts from the front: "Come on! You sons of bitches, come again if you have the ability—"
The figures of two gendarmes appeared on the road, and they looked terrible.
Maybe it was because they lost their momentum from the beginning, Lin Yao obviously took these two tin cans as soft persimmons, although it is difficult to cause fatal damage to the well-equipped military police with only primitive weapons, but after sharpening Under the attack of broken wooden sticks and all kinds of waste knives, the two of them still had more than a dozen paints on their bodies, even lost their own weapons, and were swinging around with two sticks snatched from the forest demon. Hit and retreat.
"Wait, then...help!"
A sharp-eyed gendarme saw two women running back along the road. Although he felt that it was very unreliable and shameful to ask such immature women for help, he couldn't care less now. These green skins Although the monster is weak, it is extremely persistent. If there is no way to escape, it may lose its life here.
Gnicia also kept an eye out, she didn't go up to help immediately, but shouted to the two from a distance: "Where is my purse?"
"Ah?" The gendarme didn't expect her to ask this at this time, and in a flash, the stone thrown by the forest demon hit his ear firmly: "Oh, I—! You can be cut into pieces You bastard, don't let me catch you, I'll definitely wring your head off and stuff it in... ouch!"
"Yi ha ha ha ha!"
The forest monster made a strange cry. To them, it might be some kind of ridicule, or it might just be a simple cry to boost morale, but in the eyes of the few civilized people present, it was like the sound of the sound in the black forest. The devil's mocking sound was as cold as it was.
"Here...here! Help us and I'll give it back to you!"
The soldier from the city was obviously terrified by the common monsters in the countryside. The gendarme with several bruises on his face even forgot to threaten him, and didn't have time to think about what would happen if Gnicia took the money bag. What would happen if he ran, he took out the money bag in a panic - together with his own, for a while he couldn't tell which was where, and almost threw it on the ground in a hurry, and in the end he didn't know what to do. It was thrown towards Gnicia.
Gnicia didn't receive the money, and her reaction ability was still not very good. Fortunately, Catwoman was prepared when the bags flew over and caught them in advance to prevent Gnicia from being smashed.
She casually threw the bag into the girl's hand and asked, "Got it, let's go?"
"No, let's hold hands..."
Gnicia was also a little guilty, because there were far more forest monsters chasing the two gendarmes than harassing them. It looked like there were twenty or thirty forest monsters.She didn't know if she could drive away these ignorant guys with only two of her own, or at most four of them...
As she was thinking, she saw that Catwoman had rushed up impatiently.
This seemingly indifferent orc may have a bad temper inside.
The two gendarmes were still beating and retreating, they only saw a black figure dodge beside them, and almost at the same time, warm plasma splashed on their faces.
Catwoman moved very quickly, and she never hesitated to take the shot. Compared with the gendarmes who hoped to protect themselves properly, she went directly to the forest monster from the beginning-these small things were actually not at all. With the ability to fight against her, their wide-open movements and slow speed seem to be pierced into the chest by a short knife before attacking Catwoman, or cut off the neck straight away.
The forest demon, who dragged the gendarmes for so long without any casualties, soon slowed down because of death. The monsters that obeyed the primitive nature sensed the danger, and the vanguard among them stopped chasing the two weak Instead of bullying the Imperials, he began to confront Catwoman cautiously.
In their eyes, the enemy in front of them is obviously different from those two "human beings".
She is not a "slender young girl"; she is a leopard with sharp claws, a wolf, a tiger, and a terrible predator; Low-intelligence creatures are sometimes easier to judge the strength of the enemy than intelligent humans.
But turning conservative will not change their fortunes.
If there is no accident, the forest monsters who will never leave the settlement too far will not understand that the opponent in front of them is a hunter who knows how to deal with them.
Forest monsters are timid and daring things. They dare to attack when the situation is unclear, but they may retreat in a unified way when the situation is good.
In addition to the role of momentum, the forest monsters are actually organized to a certain extent. Their retreat is not aimless and collapsed at the touch of a button, but comes from the decisions of the leaders scattered among the forest monsters who are more able to determine collective actions. .
Those forest monsters with larger physiques have more advantages than other forest monsters of the same race in terms of force and intelligence, and they are also individuals who are rarely able to make decisions and give orders among these chaotic monsters; Spiritual support, once these individuals lose their will to fight due to life threats, they can instantly cause a considerable number of forest monsters to be defeated.
Most people living in the Gallic plains probably don't know much about it - who would have nothing to do with such monsters?Besides, no one would agree that these low-level creatures would have their own social structure like the Imperials—but Catwoman could accurately identify the "leaders" of the forest demons—of course, in the thirty or forty years Among the number, only one can be regarded as the "boss".
It is really not particularly obvious, although its size is about a quarter taller than other forest monsters, but to ordinary people, it is just a little taller, and it has some teeth and bones for itself Ornamental greenskins.
Catwoman saw this thing at first sight. To her, hunting a forest monster leader was nothing worth mentioning, but today, she had some other ideas.
She let out a high-pitched growl that, in a non- pejorative sense, sounded like a hoarse cat.
However, it did have a remarkable effect. As Catwoman screamed, the forest demon, who could barely support it without retreating, began to retreat slowly. Gnicia also followed at this time. As long as she pressed it a little, maybe Lin Yao The demons will retreat—
Just drive them away, or so Gnicia thought.
But that's not what Catwoman wants.
She aimed at the relatively tall forest demon. Under the moonlight, the hunter's eyes reflected a faint blue-gray shimmer, which was the same as the moonlight in the sky.
The leader of the forest demon who was threatened by death finally couldn't bear the pressure anymore. It was the first one to start to retreat. The other monsters chasing and killing humans immediately understood what it meant, and began to scramble to squeeze in the direction they came from.
Catwoman let out another roar, and this time Gnicia was beside her. The way she bared her teeth when threatening her prey was completely different from the peaceful and peaceful daytime beauty. This contrast really shocked Gnicia. .
She chased after him, and the only target was the leader of the forest demon from the beginning.This kind of, um, monster that "knows how to save life" started to flee, and it was almost impossible to stop. She easily knocked down a few guys who happened to be in the way, and then pinched Lin Yao's head purpose neck.
She lifted the big forest demon, who didn't look light at all, like pinching a chicken.
Then, while Gnicia was stunned to watch, the big forest monster was thrown back high, its bloated body and disproportionately thin limbs waved in the air in an unsightly arc. The line finally fell heavily in front of Gnicia.
This fall was not light, as if the surrounding ground shook.
The big forest demon that flew over completely lost the momentum of chasing the military police before. It rolled over on the ground, rubbing and patting its hands all over the body, obviously in great pain; but Catwoman followed at this moment, and she The foot firmly stepped on the heart of the big forest demon so that it could not move, and ordered Gnicia who was at a loss with the stick: "Kill it."
"why?"
This is a living creature, and now there is no threat to other people, Gnicia is a little bit reluctant to do it, let alone kill it, she was worried when she defended herself just now.
Catwoman was not stingy this time to make it clear: "You are too weak."
"What does that have to do with this monster?"
"Of course, let it become your fertilizer. Kill it, and you will be stronger."
