One Sneeze Destroys A Magical Civilization

Chapter 145 Really "Beastman"

A mere shot of [Fireball] and the death of dozens of goblins is obviously not enough to frighten the huge number of monsters.

But the problem is that it is not Zuo Si who releases [Fireball], but a magic wand that does not know how many rounds of [Fireball] are stored.

Because this monster army is composed of different races and tribes.

Therefore, none of the tribal leaders or chiefs were willing to sacrifice their lives and the lives of the clan to try how many fireballs the wand could shoot.

Especially without the control of red dragons and strange things, each of them has brought the selfish nature of the evil camp to the extreme.

Even the goblins, who are the lowest-level slave labor and cannon fodder, have become a lot smarter after eating a fireball.

No matter how those jackals drove and whipped them, they would never leave the camp again.

Seeing this so-called "monster army" stretching their hips, Zuo Si finally understood why in Faerun, orcs and all kinds of monsters could pull out a huge army of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

But humans still firmly occupy an unshakable dominant position.

Among them, Silvermoon City and Neverwinter City in the north, relying on the tens of thousands of people and powerful mage groups and the church of gods, suppressed those barbarians, monsters, and monsters whose numbers were several times, ten times, or dozens of times their own. orc.

Especially the orcs in the chaotic camp don't know how to produce other than looting.

It is said that they once conquered and occupied many villages, towns and cities in their most glorious time.

Normally, after obtaining these resources, one should manage them well, and then establish a powerful regime and country.

But what happened?

These guys actually just came to rob, and then destroyed all the fields, farms, mines, and workshops, unscrupulously venting their inner desire for destruction.

After all the looted things are eaten up, continue to rob those civilized lands that have not been trampled.

I have to say that this behavior pattern is really "beastman".

But this mode has a huge problem, that is, once the battle situation falls into persistence or defeat, the orc army, which does not have much logistical supplies at all, will inevitably collapse instantly.

So almost every time an orc or a monster invaded, it looked menacing.

However, as long as the human city-state relies on the city wall to resist for a while, or sends adventurers to assassinate the leader of the opponent, thousands of enemies can easily collapse in the civil strife.

"Big army? Huh! It's just a group of mobs that were forcibly integrated by external forces."

Zuo Si gave her evaluation in a slightly contemptuous tone.

Relying on the double deterrence of the magic wand and the Shadow Legion, he successfully bought enough time for the captives behind him to escape.

Although a few trolls with low IQ and unbelief took the lead and rushed out of the camp, they were directly ignited by the [Fireball Wand] after only a second, turning into one after another running Pyromen.

Zuo Si proved with practical actions that no matter who dares to step out of the camp, he will immediately taste the feeling of being covered in fireballs.

The two sides confronted each other tensely at a distance of more than a hundred meters, until the last human captive passed through the gate of Melatma.

"Everyone is safe! We should retreat too!"

Jaheira galloped over from a distance, riding a wounded war horse that had just been healed by the druid magic.

"Well! Let's go."

Zuo Si unceremoniously took the hand offered by the other party, leaped onto the horse's back, hugged Jaheira's waist from behind, and then walked away together.

By the time the monsters reacted, the two had already run at least a few hundred meters away.

In this way, a "rescue operation" carefully designed by Ou Si finally came to an end.

By rescuing more than two thousand captives who were used as slaves by the monsters, he not only established himself as a powerful spellcaster, but also earned a good name.

At least those who survived will remember this kindness for a long time and tell others about this "legendary" experience.

The originally precarious city defense became much more stable in an instant because of the return of two hundred veterans among the captives and a large number of supplements from surrounding towns and militias.

At least with these experienced veterans as the backbone, those temporarily recruited civilians can form a certain organization to some extent, so that they will not collapse too quickly.

After finishing the job of arranging the captives, Earl Weeks Target summoned Zuo Si immediately, pointed to the box full of gold coins and an amulet on the table and said, "Here are twenty-five thousand gold coins and one A magical item I promised. As the local lord, I am very grateful for what you did last night. Because you rescued not only a group of prisoners, but also brought hope to the city."

"You are too good, my lord. I just did what I should do."

Zuo Si leaned slightly with one hand on her chest.

Earl Weeks Target shook his head with a smile: "No! Please don't be humble.

I heard from the captives who came back.

You silently killed more than two hundred orcs with just one person;

Immediately afterwards, with the help of powerful magic power, he destroyed the orc cavalry who were trying to pursue;

In the end, thousands of monsters were deterred, so that they did not dare to leave their camp.

This is not something that any spellcaster can do.

Your strength is beyond doubt.

I have no doubt now that you and your companions have taken down hundreds of goblins, orcs, and gnolls across the river.

At this moment, I sincerely request you to assist Melatma in resisting the attacks of those monsters and their evil masters outside the city, and promise that after the completion of the matter, not only will I pay the remaining half of the reward, but I will also give you an extra bounty . "

"No problem! Don't worry, I will earnestly fulfill the verbal agreement we reached before. And... I really want to experience what it's like to be a dragon slayer."

Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer without hesitation.

Anyway, he originally wanted to wipe the ass of Wilmes and the strange thing he awakened.

"Dragon Slaying?!" Count Weeks Targett's eyes widened in surprise. "You mean... not only to repel the monsters outside the city, but also to kill their master, the powerful and evil red dragon?"

"Yes! If the culprit is not eliminated, maybe a similar situation will happen again in a few years. Therefore, even for the safety of Myratma, it is necessary to eliminate the roots."

Zuo Si put on a posture that he wanted to slay the dragon with his own hands no matter what.

Earl Wicks Targett immediately stood up from his chair when he heard this, and promised excitedly: "If you and your companions can really kill the red dragon, then I am willing to give you hereditary nobles A title and a large piece of land as an added bonus."

For other adventurers, hearing that they can obtain hereditary titles of nobility and a large piece of land, I am afraid that they will wake up from their dreams.

Because the goal of most of them taking risks is basically not to make money, or to change their own class.

But Zuo Si refused bluntly: "No matter the title of nobility and the land, we have no intention of staying in the Kingdom of Tethyr. Compared with these things, I am more interested in magic items, books and scrolls."

"That's easy to say. As long as I can kill the red dragon, I'm willing to pay any price."

Earl Wicks Targett obviously hated Wilmes so much that he even gnashed his teeth when he spoke.

You must know that he originally planned to accumulate strength, take down the vast and fertile alluvial plains on both sides of the Yi Si River in one fell swoop, and then become the most powerful noble lord on the west coast of the Kingdom of Tethyr in order to gain more political capital and prestige.

But now, all of this was smashed by the sudden army of monsters.

Not only that!

He also had to guard against the invasion of other aristocratic lords who were staring at him.

Only by killing the red dragon, with the death of a powerful dragon, can those enemies hiding in the dark be deterred.
