Banner of the Evil God

It takes about ten days for civilians to walk from Pyroxene to Longhou Town. It also takes about the same time for adventurers to ride horses. Because the distance between each village where you can stay is about a day's walk. Unless you are not afraid of death and camp near this dangerous and desolate mountain range, or you are willing to travel two days in one day, no one can get there quickly.

Sui Xiong and Gerald were not in a hurry. They followed the group of merchants and walked towards Longhou Town as if they were taking a walk.

The evil dragon called "Arctic Tyrant" has been raging in the deep mountains near Longhou Town for more than fifty years. It will not be so anxious to move.

Besides, they can't rush. The key to fighting the evil dragon is Sui Xiong's body, His Majesty Oscar, the "Void Mask". And now, Sui Xiong is in seclusion in an underground cave near Pyroxene Town, adjusting his body structure to better adapt to land operations. It is a huge job to modify and deform such a huge body, and it will not be completed so quickly. So even if they arrived at Longhou Town early, they could only stay in the town temporarily and collect some intelligence. It was impossible for Gerald to go into the mountains to challenge the dragon alone.

"Brother White, did you live in the mountains before? Is life in the mountains very hard?" In a caravan traveling with them, a boy of twelve or thirteen curiously pestered Gerald, who was aliased as White, and asked him questions, which made him very annoyed.

"... Life in the mountains is roughly like this, very simple and boring, there is nothing to say."

"But..."

In order to facilitate the action, Gerald chose to travel with the caravan. The caravan is composed of caravans, and they can help each other when danger comes - when the danger is too great, it is easy to find someone to take the blame.

The caravan is very large, consisting of seven or eight caravans, and the one they chose to travel with is the strongest one among these caravans.

This caravan is called "Lucky Gold Coin". The president of the Chamber of Commerce is a half-dwarf named Soth. As a half-human, he is slightly shorter than the average person. His reddish and tough skin, big eyes that can see at night, slender and agile body, and one or two natural spells make him feel at home in his adventure as an adventurer and save a good fortune. Later, when he was older, he stopped being an adventurer and formed a caravan and changed his job to become a merchant.

The members of Uncle Soth's caravan are all his old acquaintances. It is interesting to say that although this caravan mainly does business with humans, none of the caravan members are pure humans. The boss is a half-dwarf, the bodyguards are half-orcs, and the two companions who cooperate in business are half-elf and dwarf. Even the employees are some foreign races or half-bloods. For example, the young wizard Palin, who works as an accountant, is a dwarf, a pure dwarf, who likes to chat with Gerald.

In this world, there are many races of intelligent life. There are quite a few with body shapes similar to humans. Dwarves, dwarves, elves, and orcs are all relatively common types.

Dwarves and dwarves are not tall, about one-third shorter than humans. However, no one would confuse the two, because dwarves are agile and intelligent races, while dwarves are strong and physically fit. The former are thin and flexible, with red skin, big eyes, long hands and feet, while the latter are thick and strong, with small eyes and big beards, and their voices are as loud as ordinary people's shouts.

Generally speaking, dwarves and half-dwarves often choose to be wizards, or rely on their innate blood to be a street performer, a bard, or a businessman - of course, they often work part-time as pickpockets. And what about dwarves? In addition to warriors, they rarely engage in other professions. Perhaps there are some dwarves who work as miners, blacksmiths, brewers or chefs, but they must first be good warriors, almost without exception.

Elves are a race that is about the same height as humans, but a little thinner than humans. Their characteristics are that they have high spells and natural affinity, and they are almost born to cast spells. However, they are not very adaptable to living in unnatural environments. If they cannot live in natural environments, they will gradually become weak, sick, and finally die.

For this reason, the elves regard forests and wilderness as their own kingdom. They are one of the most powerful races in this world. During several major human development periods, the two races with equally brilliant history and powerful military forces fought fiercely. The elves, who once conquered multiple races including dwarves and gnomes, and the humans, who expelled multiple races such as orcs and merfolk, fought each other like Mars hitting the Earth, but no one could do anything about it. In the end, everyone had to compromise with each other and seek equal coexistence and common development.

Of course, it has been almost five hundred years since the most recent major development. Except for those long-lived legendary strongmen, both sides who participated in the war have long died of old age, and the hatred has long faded. Now is a period when the relationship between elves and humans is relatively good. Elves envy the versatile potential and abundant vitality of humans, while humans envy the tranquility of the elves and their natural talents. As time went by, many mixed-race children appeared, commonly known as half-elves.

As for the orcs, they are a somewhat unlucky and even pitiful race. They have many origins, but because they lost to humans in the war, they were constantly expelled and eventually mixed together, forming a somewhat chaotic race. The ancestors of the orcs also had a good history of civilization, but the war with humans interrupted their civilization process, drove them away from the land where their ancestors lived, and also interrupted their civilization inheritance, gradually becoming a symbol of barbarism and backwardness.

Sadly, most orcs have forgotten the honor of their own civilization and chose to accept the civilization of humans or elves. In today's world, the traditional orcs' "barbarian warriors", "violent warriors", "bloody swordsmen", "soul shamans" and other professions have become less and less, and most qualified orcs are either warriors or rangers, or warlocks or priests.

Perhaps, this is also because these professions summarized and developed by humans and elves are indeed more powerful than the ancient professions inherited by the orcs.

The orcs in the caravan came from a tribe called "Barbarian Stone". The leader, Ahan, was a holy warrior, a clergyman who was baptized and inherited in the temple and tended to use force rather than magic. The god he believed in was a little special. He was the god of the wilderness who was revered as the "Iron Lion". He was born in the orc pantheon that tended to be evil, but he led several subordinates to semi-independently break away from it and turn to the good camp.

Ahan and his subordinates were all believers of the god of the wilderness. Their armor and shields had the holy emblem of the god of the wilderness on them - the golden lion claws in the shield frame. Especially Ahan's shield, which was shining with divine power. It was a magical item blessed in the temple.

Sui Xiong had noticed that shield. The golden light flashing from time to time on the shield made him feel familiar. After carefully recalling for a while, he was sure that the light seemed to be very similar to the god who helped him when he was fighting with the sleepless god.

In order to confirm whether this was the case, he specifically asked Gerard to ask Ahan for some knowledge about the God of the Wilderness.

The God of the Wilderness is a god who likes to travel around and fight for justice. He often transforms into a lion man (a kind of orc), carrying a shield and a battle axe, and a hammer hanging on his waist. When he encounters the rampage of the evil god, he will turn into golden lightning to tear the sky and fight against evil. Although he can only be regarded as a medium-level god in terms of the rank of gods, his combat power is extremely strong. More than once, he has beaten the well-known powerful evil gods and made them flee in panic. He can be called a first-class strongman among the gods.

As for the doctrines and detailed sect structure of this god, Sui Xiong was too lazy to remember them. In short, he was roughly sure that this God of the Wilderness was the one who helped him at the beginning, and he was also a kind god.

Very good, that's enough.

This is a good leader with good skills, strong awareness, good leadership and no black equipment. If there is a chance to follow him to the dungeon, it will definitely be very good.

Of course, he had helped him in the PK, so he had to repay him.

"Gerald, if there is a fight, be careful to protect Ahan and the others." He said.

Gerald was a little puzzled. He didn't understand why the people who needed to be protected were not non-combatants like Old Sos who had retired from the martial arts world for many years and whose combat effectiveness had significantly decreased, but Ahan who was obviously very capable. But the order of the gods was absolute, and he expressed his full obedience.

But Gerald was sure that Ahan didn't need to be protected at all. This strong lion man could fight the wild bear head-on even without weapons. When fully armed, even a wyvern couldn't do anything to him.

Look, the wyvern that wanted to attack them this evening has now become a barbecue in the camp. Old Sos's partner and chef, Forged Iron, is applying his proud secret spices and liquor to the meat. Some of the meat is almost cooked, and the tempting aroma is floating in the air.

After a day's trek, the merchant group camped next to a small village at night. This is a large open space, enough for hundreds of people to stay temporarily. Because it is adjacent to the Desolate Mountains, it has already left the affected area of ​​the Ash Forest. There are green trees in the distance and lush grass nearby. The scene is full of vitality, which makes Sui Xiong, who is used to the gray and black tone, very satisfied.

Everyone was busy at the moment, but when the aroma of roasted wyvern meat wafted, almost everyone stopped for a while, and more than one person even drooled.

Another partner of Lao Sos, a half-elf ranger who calls himself "Rhythm", is processing the materials taken from the wyvern, including sharp claws, fangs connected to venom glands, hard scales on the chest, and tough skin on the body.

The wyvern is a very fierce monster. They have a wide range of recipes, but their favorite prey is "weak bipedal walking beasts" - humans for short. In fact, what they like to do most is to attack herders and caravans. Even when there are people to eat, they will turn a blind eye to prey such as cattle and sheep. They can be said to be the enemy of humans.

If it were on Earth, this kind of guy who was openly against humans would definitely be killed to the point of extinction, and at most a few of the remaining species would be kept in zoos for research. However, in this relatively backward and wild world, humanoid species, including humans, only occupy less than one-third of the world's land. In the vast wilderness, there are enemies like this everywhere, and everyone is used to it.

Anyway, it's just a fight. If you lose, you get eaten. If you win, haha, then the relationship between eating and being eaten will be reversed!

Just like now, the flying dragon that failed to PK and was exploded became everyone's dinner.

At this moment, accompanied by the overflowing fragrance, the forged iron laughed heartily and rang the small bell that meant dinner was about to start.

The bell saved Gerard, who was being asked questions by the curious baby Palin. He quickly put an end to the "giant tribe ecology" that was almost all hearsay, dragged the little Palin who was still unsatisfied, and hurried towards the campfire.

Eating is a good reason, and it can finally get him out of this trouble that is like being interrogated.
