Fishing Druid in Another World
Chapter 368 Ogre Mountain
Sanchakou was originally a post station, but now a camp has been established. There is also a guard stationed in Night City. The wooden village sentry tower is fully equipped, and it looks pretty decent.
The people in the camp are relatively simple and not difficult to deal with. Of course there are exceptions.
"You look like a powerful guy." Captain Pedro, the leader of the Guards, said.
Priest Luo smiled and said, "It's more dangerous than it looks."
"Well, I like how you look confident and relaxed." Pedro's conversation skills were good, and he quickly changed the subject: "Few people take the funeral road over there nowadays."
Priest Luo said frankly: "There was a big commotion there before dawn, and I was hired to investigate."
"Oh, with this darkness that engulfs the entire area, we can't see the effect here. What's going on over there? Can you tell us a little bit? Just forget it's inconvenient." Pedro played a hard-to-get game, willing to Take the bait.
"Nothing inconvenient, whatever was lurking there, and whatever was done before dawn, is now deserted.
The cemetery is now a lake, and the funeral town has been completely ruined. It is difficult to find any decent evidence. The good news is that the curse lingering in the funeral town is gone. "Priest Luo muttered a few words without interest, exuding the air of "actually it's nothing."
"It's really good. Let the extraordinary bosses worry about the high-end things. If there are no curses or evil things that harm us, it's good! The situation in this area is bad enough now, and it really can't be tolerated. Harass more bad things.”
Reverend Luo behaved very "knowledgeably" and looked disapproving: "Ha! How bad can it be?
Well, the situation in Funeral Town is not as valuable as I expected. In order to avoid the low pay for this trip, I will take on some odd jobs? Do you have any here? Like killing something. "
Pedro smiled, as if to say, I like people like you: "There is indeed a job, but don't blame me for not reminding you, you must be as capable as I said to be suitable for taking this job."
It's a method of provoking generals, right? Let's eat this too. Pastor Luo became more and more polite and said: "Don't talk to me in this tone of 'I'm doing it for your own good'. I know what I'm doing and what I can do. Let's talk about the job. A good job should have a good job." Price."……
Soon after, the job came through.
It's not far away. Opposite the camp, on the north side of Silent Avenue, follow the three-way intersection and walk diagonally northeast, passing through the woodland and a valley, and you'll reach the place.
But it is very dangerous for ordinary adventurers, after all, a team of people was lost not long ago.
A simple summary of this work can be understood as two or three things about Ogre Mountain.
In fact, it is not a mountain, but a mountain basin with mines. It was originally called Gloria Castle, a barony. It has fields for farming and mines for digging. It is one of the best places in the dark forest area.
But then it was occupied by a group of ogres for several years.
Where the ogres came from is a long story.
Nowadays, these monsters are no longer content to operate in the basin and surrounding areas. Their activity range has expanded to the south of Silent Avenue. Not long ago, they even tentatively attacked the camp.
And this became the reason why a group of adventurers went on a mission.
Specific tasks can be divided into three parts: reconnaissance, reduction, and annihilation.
Pedro didn't expect Priest Luo to complete the last section. What Pedro hoped was that Priest Luo could explain the situation in Ogre Mountain clearly. It would be best to kill a few more ogres to make them restrain themselves. expansion behavior.
Priest Luo knew Pedro's purpose, but for him, it would be worthwhile to take this trip.
After all, for many things, there are two processes and outcomes, whether you have the strength to do it or not.
When we arrived near Gloria Castle, the stars and the moon were already hanging high again. Unfortunately, the entire dark forest was hazy. Otherwise, with the density of stars, the night sky would have been very bright and charming.
The advantage is that the moon is dark and the wind is high, and there is an atmosphere of murder and arson.
The ogres lie down, doze, sleep, and so on. The flames of the big bonfire jumped and trembled, and the swaying light and shadows swam on the ogres, making them sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.
The firelight at night is like this. The areas that are illuminated by it are very bright, and the areas that are not illuminated appear extremely dark.
This is actually not conducive to defense, because the closer you are to the fire, the more serious the effect of this trait will be. Let yourself be like a target, you can be seen from a distance, but you feel that there may be something strange in the darkness around you.
Ogres are more generous and relaxed.
Priest Luo can understand them.
This is a bunch of barefooted people, and their strength is quite high at a general level. Who would think of such a poor existence?
A beast or something like that, when it comes, it's like delivering food.
After all, they live in groups, and even if one or two unlucky ones are attacked by wild beasts, the remaining ogres will be enough to bring wild beasts to the table.
It's not like no one has tried to enslave them.
Unfortunately, ogres are actually more in line with human society's definition of "born bad", and they are bad and useless.
First of all, they have a bad temper, are irritable, are more pretentious than wild beasts, and tend to blow up at every turn, whether they are full or hungry.
Secondly, they are full of bad taste, all kinds of hell-level pranks, ravage and torture, and play with gusto, just like a naughty child tearing off ant legs and dragonfly wings, but more excessive.
Furthermore, they are very mean regardless of whether they are poor or rich. When they are poor, they like to rob and rob houses, and when they are rich, they like to bully and torture for fun.
And they are lazy.
In a word, these guys are in great need of being disciplined.
Concentration camp-style management, after educating them for several generations, may be able to kill the evil spirits in their bones.
The question is, Who? Who has the motivation to discipline them.
What's more interesting is that the IQ of these guys can fluctuate, with a big gap.
Like now, they look stupid and fat, silly, ugly and cute, which shows that they are poor.
They are fat not because they eat too well, but because of unbalanced nutrition intake, too much junk food to fill their stomachs, and daily exercise is not enough to digest, so the calories are converted into fat and accumulate...
In this statement, the ogre can be called a super deluxe version. They can even eat soil to survive. Of course, not all soil can be swallowed. In fact, they can absorb the nutrients in the soil. Humus soil is more nutritious for them, and sandy soil makes them hungrier and hungrier.
In short, the super good appetite has brought them a very good survival ability. But being able to survive does not mean living well. Living badly is very painful and lazy. What can we do? Reduce intelligence.
If you don't even know what pain is, how can you feel pain?
So they are just like a bunch of idiots who are happy all day long.
But this does not mean that they are harmless. They evolved from the adaptive nature of Goron, and brutality is written in their genes. They are more than three meters tall and generally weigh six or seven hundred kilograms. If you get too close to them, even if they just do some rough daily actions, they may cause injuries to others.
As for what it looks like to be rich, the fat will turn into muscles, and the muscles will be like copper and iron. At the same time, there is a chance to grow a second head, and they are smart enough to go a long way on the road of magic.
So this group of ogres who are not very DND are very dangerous. You don't know whether they are the dragon or the phoenix.
But Priest Luo doesn't care. As long as he is strong, the tiger will become a cat. Others come to take risks, but he comes to buy goods.
What goods? Cows and horses. There are mountains of civil engineering work in Xingyue Pure Land, and they are in great need of big animals.
As for the ogres being lazy, mean and bad-tempered, sorry, Priest Luo knows a little about souls, and in his cognition, there is no big beast that is not obedient.
So the next scene is unremarkable. Priest Luo is like a ghost that shuttles back and forth among the ogres. He knocks the ogres on the head with his cane, and it is not very strong. The victim is already dizzy. From then on, he is put in a cage of thought and says goodbye to his past self.
Deal with the ogres on the side of the ruins of the outer Kelleburg, and then the ones on the other side of the mine.
The copper mine was transformed into a nest by the ogres, and the style is primitive.
The ogre race, at its most glorious moment, even established an empire, punched real dragons, and enslaved Goron. These two creatures, one is the overlord of the sky, and the other is the overlord of the land. In the end, they can only be pack animals and pets for the ogres. Their power can be seen.
However, their era ended with climate change, and the food in nature was no longer abundant and rich in extraordinary nutrition.
It can be understood that breathing freely is spiritual energy, and picking some fruits at random can be a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum or a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng. You can start from the Nascent Soul stage without practicing, which is the legendary post-myth era.
Then, just like the disappearance of the oxygen-rich environment of the dense tropical rainforests on the earth, which led to the exit of the big guys represented by dinosaurs, the era of cannibals is gone forever.
The long-lived species are silent, and the short-lived species are prosperous. This is also a concrete manifestation of the heat death of the universe. The stars are always getting farther and farther away from each other, and the matter is always spreading more and more, just like the exploding fireworks. Stars will also go out like brilliant fireworks. When resources are exhausted, the environment is only suitable for the humble survival of microorganisms, and eventually life will end completely.
Of course, compared with the life span of the universe, which is calculated in billions of years, even the existence time of God seems insignificant, and there is no need to be sad about the fate of the universe.
From this perspective, who is not a short-sighted person who only cares about the present?
Pastor Luo does not shy away from this, and is proud of the saying "live in the present".
As the saying goes, the happiness of rich people is always plain and boring. Money is a variant of power, and the powerful priest Luo enjoys this simplicity and boredom.
After knocking and hammering along the way, the purchase is completed, which is easier than buying some bottles and jars at the antique street to decorate the storefront at home.
He is not worried about missing anyone. He is now a pseudo-god clone, and the moon is in the sky, so it is reasonable to obtain the effect similar to that of a dedicated military reconnaissance satellite.
Wherever the moonlight shines, as long as you want to see, you can see it at a glance.
How can that ogre gang be missed?
Even if there is no moonlight in the cave, priest Luo's god-level perception is enough to scan them out.
In the depths of the cave, priest Luo saw the ogre leader, Paz, who has a beast skin throne like a mountain king.
This is a female. If you don't pay attention to the lower body, just look at the upper body. It's no different from a male. They are all bare-chested and fat, and the bra will tighten them to at least a D cup effect.
What is rare is that this guy is so poor that he has two heads.
This is a gift from God, and he is extremely talented. He deserves to be a boss with an extra brain.
Of course, the overlord of the beggar world is still a beggar, and the king of fools is just a fool.
Paz's two heads soon quarreled.
One felt the kingly aura that Priest Luo deliberately leaked, and decided to cling to his thigh, while the other said that as long as he absorbed Priest Luo, he would be able to move up to a higher level.
There is a superstitious saying in the ogre community that if the enemy is eaten, its power will return to itself, so the method of 'absorption' mentioned by one of Paz's heads is very simple.
"Kneel down!" Priest Luo used his spiritual power in a rare way.
The power of telekinesis and mental control took effect together, crushing him physically and mentally in all directions, causing Paz to kneel down with a bang, but even so, his height could still slightly overlook Priest Luo.
Then just lie down. It is also polite to throw yourself on the ground.
The strength of the body and the strength of the mind, the two points that Paz is most proud of, were directly defeated. There is no suspense. In addition to having a high level of barbarian, he is also a warlock. As a result, he can't even cast spells now, and he can't even stand. Unable to get up, I could only stretch my neck and look up at Priest Luo.
"How about it? Cooperate obediently with my transformation, or do you want me to erase your self-awareness?" Priest Luo communicated directly in the language of the soul, making it easier for Paz to understand accurately.
"Cooperate, I will cooperate!" The two heads responded promptly.
"That's right! The survival instinct should occupy the high ground of consciousness when needed. If you pretend to be cool with me, I'm already showing off your arrogance. How can I still look like a good man and a good woman?"
So when the bright moon was high in the sky, Priest Luo saw a sleepy Pedro.
Pedro had just fallen asleep when he was woken up. He was a little angry at first, but when he heard that Priest Luo had come back with a two-headed ogre, he immediately stopped feeling sleepy.
Although he lacks understanding of the current situation of the Gloryburg Ogre, he still knows some common sense and knows what the two-headed ogre means.
"So, the only thing we have to do now is to send people to take over Gloria Castle?" After Pedro listened to Pastor Luo's astonishing and indifferent statement as always, he really couldn't suppress the shock in his heart, and his thoughts were very retarded. Confirmation of the statement.
"Of course, there is no point in telling such a lie that can be easily exposed. Next, I want to get some sleep. As for the reward, I only want things, travel supplies, dry food, etc., and simple clothes that can make this big man decent.
If you feel that the time I have to rest is not enough for you to complete the task confirmation, then find a way to arrange another weighty task. After all, my time is valuable. Okay, that's all for now, take me to where I'm staying. "
Priest Luo's tone was not offensive, but his wording was a bit unpronounceable, but it was also in line with the arrogant temperament of those who think highly of themselves and look down upon everyone else.
And Pedro, like most people, was tolerant to the strong and harsh to the weak. He hurriedly asked the most energetic subordinates around him to serve the priest. The key was not to irritate the irritable ogre.
Turning around, he called another subordinate to go to Night City overnight to report the urgent military situation.
This approach is dangerous. The dark forest at night is very unsafe, especially nowadays.
However, the lives of my subordinates are meant to be consumed, otherwise? To provide? Beautiful girls in this era are not treated like this.
So when Priest Luo woke up the next day, he saw the city owner's representative, Sir Godfrey, who had come all night from the Dark City.
Just looking at Sir Godfrey's face that smiled like a rotten peach, Priest Luo thought of a folk proverb: When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something.
He thinks it's good. He likes the feeling of being considered very valuable by others. It's much more enjoyable than when he was 18 years old, standing like a minion. It is in line with his current status and temperament.
Sure enough, Godfrey said that Priest Luo's performance at Gloria Castle amazed everyone, so Godfrey decided to represent the Lord of Night City and announce a job about the rotten orchard to Priest Luo, and also contacted Gloria Castle. More or less, there are no specific requirements. I hope that Pastor Luo can use his subjective initiative to complete it.
As for the reward, Godfrey said: "Don't worry, Night City is not short of money and supplies."
Priest Luo chuckled and said to himself: "If you show off your wealth in front of me, we really can't say who has never seen big money..."
Of course, Pastor Luo complained not because the other party's rhetoric about showing off his wealth aroused his sensitive heart, but because the other party's deceptive style of doing things gave him a strong sense of contempt and deep disgust.
Fortunately, he didn't expect the feudal nobles to really respect the bounty mercenaries. Godfrey's current posture was just awe of the power, not him. A dog that can communicate normally will also receive Godfrey's courtesy if he can show the strength he demonstrated.
Okay, just complain a little bit, otherwise you will be criticized for being outspoken, knowing all the diseases in the world, and still trying to make it up...
So just after noon that day, Pastor Luo came to the rotten orchard.
The Rotten Orchard is located diagonally behind the Sanchakou Camp, specifically to the north of Silent Avenue and to the west of North-South Avenue. You also need to pass through the black forest, and then climb up to the high ground. At the foot of the more towering, barrier-like mountains to the north is the rotten orchard.
This area was opened up, and giant trees were cut down to make room for fruit trees. Order and scale. Not only is it the main fruit and vegetable base in Night City, it is also the source of raw materials for the famous cider.
But now, this place is occupied by a group of werewolves.
"Hoo ho! This race in the streets feels very close to the people at this moment..."
