Arcane Rebirth

"Yes, there are demons down there! Let me see..."

Hugo put his hands on his eyebrows to form a pergola to block the light. After careful identification, he said: "The only ones I saw were Warcraft and Barbarians. There were about sixty or seventy Warcraft and more than four hundred Barbarians... …Wait! Look! There are three Dromu bat demons there!!!"

Jialan followed Hugo's instructions and looked at them one by one, but was speechless for a while. It seemed that the definition of "demons" in this era was somewhat different from that of his original era.

The so-called "barbarians", in Jialan's impression, should be called "savages" or "higher apes", and "primitive humans" are just human races that have been reproduced in ancient times but have not evolved. It is said that there is no difference from human beings of various ethnic groups who claim to be a civilized species.

Even in the era of extremely developed civilization in Jialan, these savages could be seen everywhere in some inaccessible deep mountains and old forests.

They only have a primitive and simple settlement-style social system. Some of them are close to human gathering places and have a gentler temperament. They will even conduct barter transactions with travelers, using the ores they pick up and the food of their prey. Furs and other items were exchanged for some tools and salt from travelers.

But most savages are unwilling to have too much contact with their hairless relatives like humans. In their view, these hairless relatives are too dangerous. If outsiders forcefully approach their settlements, they will become frightened and attack.

The savages have no language and can only express their intentions through howls with a simple rhythm, and only a small number of savages know how to use fire. Most of them still maintain the habit of drinking blood from their mushroom hairs, and will kill any enemy killed by them. They will all be listed as their own recipe menu, so they are usually called "cannibals".

Behaviorally, they are closer to beasts than humans, which is why they cannot integrate into human society.

To say that these uncivilized guys are dangerous, Jialan can understand. After all, these savages with sharp teeth and claws are quite powerful in combat. It is not strange to tear tigers and leopards alive.

He had seen some boring nobles raising strong savage slaves as pets and combatants in the Colosseum, but to say that they were demons... Jialan couldn't figure out how these guys who couldn't even speak could be compared to What do those monsters with horns and hooves have to do with it?

As for the "Warcraft" Hugo mentioned, it is even more nonsense. Then it is simply a beast, okay?

Although these ugly big guys with wolf-like ears, blood-red eyes, a thick black mane, a mouth full of fangs protruding from the lips, and turned-up nostrils look scary, they are actually genuine. Creatures on the surface of the earth. They have no blood relationship with those devils and demons from other planes.

There are also the three "Dromu Bat Demons", which are no different from the pre-civilization period. They were just called "Human-Faced Harpies" in that era. The reason why they were called "Dromu Bat Demons" was purely because of their That pair of blood-red bat wings.

But in fact, the whole body of the human-faced harpy is covered with scaly hard skin similar to the claws of birds. Its limbs are also claw-shaped. In terms of physiological structure, it is closer to birds than bats.

But just like some people question whether bats are birds or beasts, there are also a large number of species scholars who study the lineage of the human-faced harpy and deduce the origin of the bloodline of this human-like creature. Is it a human? Or a bat? Or a bird?

It is said to be a human, but it is covered in scales. It is said to be a bird, but it has no feathers, but it has a pair of bat-like wings. This weird and ugly deformed appearance may be a human-faced harpy or Drom. Bat demons are classified as demons by people of this era, but the only thing that is certain is that this creature is definitely not a hybrid.

Having said that, people in this era do not seem to be so rigorous in classifying the lineage of species, but simply classify them based on aesthetics and self-guessing... those who are ugly, have low intelligence, and do not conform to human aesthetics are Demons!

Jialan couldn't even correct Hugo, so he could only modify the monster illustration in his memory and add an annotation for these "demons".

Among the people fighting below, the human side is obviously at a disadvantage. From the opponent's equipment, it can be judged that they should be the Avadai City Rangers not far from here. If the guess is correct, this should be a patrol. The encounter between the rangers and the cross-border demons.

The Avadai Rangers, who numbered about two hundred, relied on their mobility as a riding profession to continuously launch attacks, but the number of demons surrounding them was more than double their number. All the attacks were unable to break through the siege, so they could only gather together to form a battle formation, passively defending against the attacks of the demons, and waiting for the rescue of Avadai City.

Although they were of different nationalities and ethnicities, these rangers were of the same kind after all. The mercenaries all turned their inquiring eyes to Jialan. Considering that Avadai City was about to become a collaborator, Jialan did not think much about it and nodded. Continue to lower the height of the Storm Shark and approach the two sides fighting on the ground.

The sudden appearance of the behemoth obviously alarmed both warring parties. The only difference was that the human side immediately cheered, while the demon side seemed a little panicked. The huge size of the Storm Shark caused great oppression to them. feel.

Before the Storm Shark could land at a low altitude where the mercenaries could be put down, the hatches were opened one by one at the bottom of the cabin below the platform, and small reconnaissance boats "fell" one after another.

Before the crash, the magic circle in the airbag gave enough heat to the fire element in the airbag. The buoyancy obtained immediately slowed down the fall of the reconnaissance boat. It floated up as lightly as a swimming fish and flew toward the demons. Pounced over.

At the same time, the Storm Shark finally landed about four or five meters above the ground. It lowered its deck with a "clang" sound, but no mercenaries rushed out for a long time.

When both the demons and the rangers were wondering, a heavy sound of footsteps, like a dull war drum, slowly came from the cabin of the Storm Shark. It not only attracted the attention of both parties, but also stopped the battle!

A huge head wrapped in full metal armor slowly poked out from the shadow of the cabin, followed by a terrifying fanged mouth and a thick neck...

A group of warrior dragons rushed out of the cabin with no roar or scolding. It was extremely quiet, but instead exuded a terrifying atmosphere. A group of earth dragons that could not roar was much scarier than a group of howling earth dragons!

As soon as the Earth Dragon Knights appeared, the demons immediately panicked and screamed strangely. Some wanted to escape, while others rushed up blindly, but the Earth Dragon Knights simply ignored this.

After all, they silently drew out their huge war blades and sliced ​​through the butter on the table like a sharp knife.

No questioning, no intimidation, just charge, charge, and charge again. No matter whether it is a strong barbarian or a ferocious Warcraft, under their dragonrider blades, they will not be harder than the crispy and delicious grilled lamb chops.

This group of silent dragon knights and warrior dragons, as if they were just here to complete a routine drill, slaughtered the large group of demons, gathered their formation, and silently returned to the cabin with blood all over their bodies.

It is not their job to go in and leave the demons who are fleeing in all directions.

The rangers were all stunned by the aura of death and killing emanating from the dragonriders. They didn't even realize what was happening. Is this the end?

The combat power of demons and humans has generally reached 1:3 or even 1:4. Their Ranger squadron of nearly a hundred people unexpectedly encountered hundreds of demon troops who crossed the border. They were already mentally prepared for total annihilation.

But in the blink of an eye, the ferocious demons surrounding them turned into pieces of corpses on the ground!

The fleeing demons were unable to escape in the end. The nooses thrown from the reconnaissance boats passing by at low altitude accurately tied up the fleeing demon soldiers. After being dragged on the ground for a while, they were half-dead.

Pull it up.

Twenty-four reconnaissance boats brought back nearly a hundred demon prisoners. Only the three Drom harpies who were far away flapping their wings in panic and fled.

"Magic...Magician Pavilion...Your Excellency! May I ask who you are..."

The leader of the rangers stammered and saluted Jialan and the others. Jialan smiled gently and said: "Don't be nervous, we are members of the Keao Group from Kelanbang, Zilargo County, and we are coming to Avadai City this time.

At the invitation of the Lord of your city, Viscount Reynolds Di Crane, I have come to cooperate with your city in the supply of materials and the purchase of magic materials. I believe that Viscount Crane will return to the city soon."

Although Viscount Krahn and his party set off ahead of Jialan and the others, their speed was far inferior to Jialan and the others on the Storm Shark, so they fell behind.

It's not that Jialan is stingy and doesn't want to take Viscount Krahn along for the ride, it's just that as the war lord of West Breland County, all customs clearance procedures must strictly follow the regulations of the Breland Military Department, but he is not as free as Jialan and the others.

The ranger leader breathed a sigh of relief. While leaving his rangers to clean the battlefield and escort the nearly 100 demon captives, he sent people to return to Avadai City to report the warning and lift the warning. He himself led

With several subordinates, he "escorted" Jialan and others to Avadai City.

Now that they have arrived at someone else's territory, Jialan and the others cannot rashly take the Storm Shark all the way into Avadai City. Otherwise, without any notification, they will have to cause another commotion, so they can only

Accompanied by the ranger leader, return to Avadai by land.
