Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 196 Two-Headed Ogre

As usual, birdsong rang through the dawn mist, heralding the dawn

The sky lit up with astonishing speed, the black outlines of the forest reappeared, the jagged treetops emerged from the blurred darkness, and a blue that heralded the dawn was rendered on the horizon, drowning out the twinkling stars.

Only in the deepest night can there be the most beautiful sunrise, just like a rainbow. The reason why it is so colorful is because it has experienced the baptism of wind and rain. The same is true of life. Only through those hardships can we succeed.

This is what is called the beauty of the sunrise is that it emerges from the deepest darkness.

Because it is indeed a wonderful thing to wait quietly for the sunrise. If possible, Thorne hopes to start a new day of adventure with the first ray of sunshine every day.

Thorne was walking in the humid morning. The dew from the weeds and bushes wet his clothes and clinged to his skin tightly, exuding a bone-chilling coolness, but he didn't care and just walked quietly Then, head towards the direction of the Temple of Melikai.

While walking quietly along the way, he found a flat stone facing the east not far away. This is a stone that has long been smoothed by the blowing of the strong wind. It is a stone that he is very familiar with. He once liked a person very much. Lie alone on this flat stone facing east and welcome the sunrise.

So Thorn stood on the stone again, looking calmly at the distant sky and the vast wilderness.

Suddenly, in a small ravine in the distance, the hunting screams of wilderness goblins could be heard. A dozen or so goblins in scanty clothes screamed excitedly at each other with high-pitched voices. pain.

The 'brave' goblins chase a Dire Rabbit the size of a dirt dog up and down a small ravine like a school of fish congregating and constantly changing direction.

Dire rabbits are the most prevalent ferocious animals in the Emerald Field, and the meat of this animal is very tender, whether it is grilled or stewed, it is very delicious, and it is one of the main sources of meat in the player's territory in the field.

Although the temper of the dire rabbit is as irritable as that of dire animals, it is extremely aggressive, but no matter how irritable it is, it is still a rabbit after all.

Just like what happened in front of you, this vicious rabbit who was hunted down by goblins faced the siege of more than a dozen goblins, and soon after knocking down a goblin blocking the way, he died tragically under the goblin's sharp knife due to lack of energy, and was subsequently killed by the goblin. A group of majestic goblins carried it and disappeared into the dense bushes.

Thorn watched the morning sun slowly pass through the gaps in the clouds, through the morning fog, revealing a flushed face, and when the orange-red light fell on him, his figure disappeared again.

Thorne continued to walk towards the Temple of Melikai on the edge of the Forest of Tranquility to the east, carefully avoiding the potholes on the ground, and slowly crossing the wilderness under his feet.

Just as he was about to take a shortcut through the dense forest, he saw a ruin looming on the top of the mountain. It was once a territory established by a player lord, but it was a pity that it was destroyed by a group of ogres.

Thorne suddenly noticed the moving black spots in the sky, which were ferocious vultures. They slowly swooped down in a group, and then scattered and flew away again, flapping their wings quickly.

"It's weird!"

Thorne stared silently at the mountain top in the distance, changed his pace, and walked towards the ruins on the top of the mountain. From a distance, he could find a hazel forest with no leaves on the hillside, covered with a thick layer of golden yellow. The fallen leaves are dazzling in the morning light.

Not far away, he found some special traces on the ground.

"It seems to be a mixed group, there are four people in total." Thorne carefully observed the footprints on the ground, thinking slightly.

The largest pairs of footprints on the ground belonged to trolls and ogres, and the rest were wargs, and...

Thorne looked at the weird animal claws, pondered for a long time, and finally confirmed the identity of the footprints.

Like a tiger walking upright.

"Worgs, ogres, trolls, and tigers that walk upright." Thorne whispered to himself, and instantly judged the true identity of the footprints.

The ogre wizard Carol, the war troll Kohando, the goblin wizard Malvisa riding a wolf, the tiger man Seru, and of course there should be a flying osprey.

What are the leaders of Horn Town doing here?
Thorne looked at the ruins on the top of the mountain with a puzzled look on his face.

However, as a ranger, it is not difficult for him to track these guys, so Thorne didn't get too entangled, but immediately started to take action.

He moved carefully, hiding himself in the shadows as much as possible, and at the same time put on the hood behind the cloak, deeply covering his face, and followed the footprints left by the people of Horn Town.

Soon he judged that the team's destination was the ruins on the top of the mountain, and the footprints were left two hours ago.

When he was about to approach the slope of the ruins, Thorne heard a faint roar from inside the ruins. From the vulgar voice, he could tell that it was from an ogre.

Hearing the roar of the ogre, Thorne suddenly remembered that the people of Horn Town didn't seem to like the ogre wizard player very much, and even wanted to get rid of it and then quickly.

Thorne recalled the condition that Carlos agreed to form an alliance with Horn Town yesterday. In addition to a large amount of compensation, he also needed the head of the ogre wizard and two hundred ogre corpses.

Thinking of some possibility, Thorn slowed down his speed again, quietly walked into the leaf-covered hazel forest, and cautiously approached the direction of the ruins.

Finally, Thorn found the figures of several people in Horn Town, including goblin wizards, war trolls, osters and tiger people. The only thing that surprised him was that the ogre wizard hiding was not the player Carol. Judging from the other party's expression, it was a wild ogre wizard.

Then Thorne moved gently with the help of the shadow of the bushes, and while keeping an eye on the people in Bugle Town, he moved a few steps towards the ruins.

"Nilgao, listen carefully, and do as I tell you. After it is done, I will help you become the new ogre leader. In our territory of Horn Town, I can also give you a piece of land for You build your own tribe." Malvisa the goblin wizard gently comforted the warg, and said slowly to the ogre wizard respectful to her.

"Thank you, great Goblin Queen, the Bonebreaker Ogre Tribe will always serve you!" Ogre wizard Neil said in a low voice, bowing deeply to the goblin witch.

The goblins are going to give the ogres a territory!
Seeing the unbelievable scene in front of him, a trace of surprise flashed across Thorn's expression.

Is this a conspiracy against the ogre wizard player Carol?

Through the dialogue between the two, Thorne, who was thoughtful, immediately judged the intentions of the people in Bugle Town.

So he immediately turned his gaze to the direction of the ruins.

The moment Thorne turned around, a burly figure gradually turned Thorne's calm expression into shock.

Two-headed ogre wizard!
In the territory of Horn Town, the most powerful and powerful player lord is the ogre wizard Carol, and Thorn still clearly remembers the other party's appearance.

But the face of one of the heads of the two-headed ogre wizard in front of him was exactly the same as that of Carol.

As a ranger, although the ability of photographic memory has not been transformed into a specialty, he is still very confident in his memory, so he recognized the two-headed ogre wizard as Carol at a glance.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the other party used some secret method to successfully transform into a two-headed ogre.

In the ancient ogre empire in ancient times, the double-headed ogre represented the blood of the royal family. They were very rare in number, but they were born with powerful magical talents and dual spellcasting abilities.

"Idiots of the Skull Kicking Tribe! Listen to me, standing in front of you are the royal descendants of the ancient ogre empire. Our goal is very clear, that is to establish the greatest ogre in the entire emerald field Empire, therefore, I need your strength!"

The face of the two-headed ogre wizard is covered with criss-cross traces of dark green oil paint. Both heads have single horns about ten centimeters long, and there are various strange tattoos on the exposed skin. More than 200 ogres in the ruins roared loudly.

——"Three-ring spell: Lightning beam!"

As soon as the two-headed ogre wizard finished speaking, his other head immediately chanted a quick incantation. Along with dangerous fluctuations in magic power, the two-headed ogre's fingertips flickered, and a powerful blue lightning was released. out.

The lightning beam instantly hit an ogre warrior in heavy metal armor at a speed that the naked eye could not catch, and the terrible spell damage hit the simple heavy armor covering the ogre warrior, directly melting it, and then took advantage of the situation Hit the Ogre Warrior's body.

Dense electric arcs immediately jumped out of the ogre warrior's body. Amidst his mournful wailing, his whole body was scorched black, and his heavy body lay motionless on the ground.

"Idiots of the Kicking Skull tribe! Standing in front of you are the descendants of the dragon slayer Hieronymus Balon, surrender or die!" The other head of the two-headed ogre threatened viciously.

"That's enough. It's agreed that I will take the lead this time, and you are good at making decisions." The head on the right of the two-headed ogre looked at the head on the left and growled dissatisfied.

"Cowardly and cowardly Carol, what you do will only make them gain an inch. We must use force to overwhelm everything, either surrender or die to me!" The head on the left of the double-headed ogre glanced at the right with disdain The head roared at the ogres again.

"The two-headed ogre wizard is the lackey of the devils from Baator Hell. He killed your leader and tried to turn all the warriors of the tribe into slaves of the devil. Warriors of the Kicking Skull tribe, don't be fooled. Run away if you want to live!"

When the two heads of the two-headed ogre wizard were arguing endlessly, Neilgao, the ogre wizard who was hiding in the dark, jumped out and shouted at all the ogres.
