There were thick dark clouds floating under the gray sky, and groups of ferocious vultures flew quietly from behind the staggered clouds, hovering in the low sky, making bursts of high-pitched screams. Immediately after, it spread out its wide wings and dived down, landing on the broken corpse and feasting on it.

Thorne, who was wearing a black cloak, dragged his slightly tired body, stepped on the blood-stained ground, and walked slowly to the city wall, looking into the distance.

At this time, the battlefield under the city wall was like a **** on earth. The breeze was blowing, and the air was filled with a disgusting **** smell. The smoke was floating in the air, and all kinds of siege weapons were burning in the flames, reflecting the sky was blood red.

The first encounter between the Falls and the Hulk Hobgoblin finally ended in victory. No matter what glory the war may bring, it will definitely leave pain in the end.

After a short break, the soldiers have begun to clean the battlefield.

As a Heruk Hobgoblin tribe with a complete group, their loot is undoubtedly very impressive.

Refined long swords, standard full-body armor, light and heavy military crossbows, and various military weapons will once again become the most deadly weapons of war for the people of Falls and Horn, with a little repair.

After all, mineral resources are the most in short supply in Pushang Town. Although the entire Emerald Wilderness contains abundant natural resources, there is no strength to mine it, and any words are superfluous.

If you want to mine the minerals of the Emerald Wilderness, you must first have the ability to hold on to this place, or you will be waiting for you to be a steady stream of various humanoid creatures attacking the mining area.

With the strength of Waterfall Town, it is very difficult to expand the territory, and what is the ability to mine resources outside the territory. Otherwise, the lords of the lower city would not be eager to lock their eyes on the land in the upper city.

After all, if you want to grow and develop, you can never do without land and resources.

Heruk Hobgoblin, who once served in the construction golem factory in the Black Pearl Forest, has a history of hundreds of years, so they have the most complete inheritance.

A few days ago, he had been living in Tranquil Forest to cause trouble for the Hobgoblin tribe entrenched there. But as he went deeper into the center of the Hobgoblin tribe, he became more and more alarmed by what he observed, and also understood why these Heruk Hobgoblins had the capital to attack Winterfell.

In the core area of ​​the Hobgoblin tribe, every day there are groups of cattle and horses pulling the mined ore to the smelter, and the sound of beating in the blacksmith shop is endless day and night.

The academy for cultivating goblin worship, the shrine for the guardian of the goblin, the farm for domesticating beasts, the animal skin processing factory, the training ground, the tailor's workshop and so on, all kinds of brand-new buildings are erected one after another.

Even Thorne saw a few rudimentary clay golems. Obviously, they must have mastered the production method of construction golems, but due to other reasons, mass production cannot be carried out for the time being.

Moreover, today's attack on the town of waterfalls is just a legion of the Hulk Hobgoblin. In addition to slaves and beasts, the number of Hobgoblin warriors is more than a thousand.

In the vast Serenity Forest, he saw at least three of this large-scale legion.

That is to say, it is still a long way for the current waterfall town to truly stand on the emerald field, and the first trouble to be solved is the Heruk Hobgoblin in the Serenity Forest.

But in the current waterfall town, nearly a thousand players and about 200 half-elf original residents, wanting to count on these people to resist the full attack of the goblin group is simply a fantasy.

Even with Clarion Town, there is still a sense of powerlessness.

"If you can't even solve the threat of hobgoblins, what about going to the legendary city of all gates: Sigil. What capital do you have to blame those deranged idealists for the evil consequences." Thorne looked at The battlefield filled with gunpowder could not help but sigh.

great power!

Every time his vision improved by one level, he couldn't restrain the urgency of yearning for great strength. Only with great strength can he help his compatriots and half-elves stand in the wilderness and protect those who are worthy of his protection.

Insights! God killer! Guardian Church!

"Crack!"

Looking at the devastated land, Thorne suddenly recalled the culprits who caused everything, and felt a burst of anger in his heart for no reason. His left hand rattled softly because it was clasped too hard, and even the joints had turned white.

Suddenly, a figure walked up to him and wrapped his arms around him, followed by a voice that impressed him: "Okay, why are you suddenly angry?"

"It's okay, it's just that I suddenly thought of something unpleasant." Thorne calmed down his ups and downs and said to Andersina with a smile.

"Is it because of the Church of the Patronus of Sigil?" The smart sorceress immediately guessed the reason. She gently leaned her body on Thorne's shoulder and smiled and comforted:

"What's the point of being angry, they do theirs, we do ours, and the two don't interfere with each other.

Moreover, this is not a kind of new life for us. This kind of accident gives us the opportunity to come into contact with the extraordinary power of the world, and it may not be impossible to even walk out a path of immortality of our own. So, a lot of things have two sides. "

"That's true." Thorne nodded in agreement and asked, "How is she?"

"Lilia is a girl with a strong heart. I had a good time chatting with her." Andrina looked at Thorne's face, her beautiful eyes flickered, and she asked curiously, "Can you tell me how the two of you are? Do you know?"

"This..." Thorne hesitated for a moment, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression: "On the first day of the game's launch, I was randomly born near Waterfall Town, and was chased by a little goblin for a long time. The half-elf girl who was still a ranger found out that she shot the goblin who was chasing me to death with one arrow. Then, as a half-elf vagabond, I successfully joined the upper town of Waterfall Town."

Andrina, who thought it sounded funny, seemed to think of the funny scene of Thorne being chased by goblins, and couldn't help laughing out loud. Then he continued to ask: "When you chose a random birthplace, does it mean that you are a very withdrawn person, and no one wants to play a game with you."

"That's right." Thorne nodded, not denying it.

"Thorn, what do you have to do with me?" At this moment, a half-smiling voice interrupted the chat between the two.

Thorne and Andrina immediately turned to look in the direction of the source of the sound, and found that it was Torvi, one of the lords of the lower city.

"I have some equipment here and I need you to help me deal with it, and I'll ask you to buy some materials for me." Noticing Torvey who was smoking a pipe, Thorne explained what he meant: "It's not convenient here, let's go to the room to talk ."

"Om!"

In the dimly lit room, a light flashed on Andrina's staff, and the room suddenly became like daylight.

Then Thorne directly took out three dimensional bags under the suspicious eyes of the two. With a crashing sound, a lot of sophisticated weapons and equipment were all poured out by Thorne and piled up into a hill.

"This..." Looking at the scene in front of him, Torvey's eyes almost fell out of surprise, so that the pipe that was brought to his mouth directly stuck to his nose. He looked at Thorne suspiciously and guessed subconsciously. : "I said that your kid didn't rob the arsenal of the Hobgoblin, right?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, this hobgoblin is really rich, and the weapons are almost all of the high-quality level or above. Except for the disgusting blood-red stripes smeared on these body armors, they are much stronger than those of the Banyue Chamber of Commerce. Crossbow..." Torway couldn't put it down, sighing as he picked up the weapon pile and sighed.

"Did you really rob the Hobgoblin arsenal?" Andrina, who was beside Thorne, couldn't help but ask when she saw this shocking scene.

"Otherwise, the Hobgoblins wouldn't hate me so much, but the reason they were able to robbery was mainly because they didn't expect anyone to do this. Now they are very guarded about weapons and equipment, and it's impossible to sneak in. now." Thorne explained to the two with a smile.

"Are you going to ask me to help you dispose of all these weapons and equipment?" Torvey put down a refined long sword in his hand and raised his head to ask.

"That's what it means." Thorne nodded, and then took out a blood axe and a pure black armor with pale golden light from the dimension bag, and solemnly placed it in front of Torvey and said. : "This is the weapon and equipment of the Hobgoblin army commander. Please help me deal with it."

...

"Thorn, these two pieces of equipment are not easy. Are you sure you want to sell them?" Torvey gave Thorne a shocked look and reminded him by stroking the precise pattern of his full body armor.

"This kind of power-type equipment is not suitable for me. Should I keep it for the elderly if I don't sell it?" Thorne didn't care much.

"What do you need me to collect for you?"

"Three red zircon, two blue and white diamonds." Thorne said without thinking.

"You're a lunatic. I don't think all your equipment can be sold for the price of these gems."

After listening to the materials Thorne needed, Torvey couldn't help but complain. He really couldn't understand what a ranger needed so many precious gems for. He really regarded himself as a wizard.

"If it's not enough, I'll make it up later. In short, please help me collect these few gems as soon as possible, it's very important to me. After all, you have more contact with people from Banyue Chamber of Commerce, and it is easier to negotiate. Convenient." Thorne was not surprised after listening to the other party's complaints.

After finishing speaking, he left Torvi in ​​a daze and took Anderina out of the room.

"What's the use of you collecting those precious gems?" After the two walked side by side for a distance, the sorceress Andrina finally couldn't help her curiosity, took Thorne's arm and stopped, and asked.

"You should know about the ancient weapons." Thorne said, seeing the other side nod, he continued: "My kendo profession belongs to the Nine Swords System of Karatu Continent, and the three systems I have mastered are all recorded. How to use the ancient ritual to make the weapon in your hand a powerful ancient weapon."

"You mean that you want to build an ancient weapon?" Andrina glanced at the long sword slayer that Thorne hung around her waist, surprised a little, and guessed a little inconceivably.

"That's right." Thorne nodded and explained to her: "The ancient weapons of the Mofeng Sect have three rituals, namely the ritual of fire, the ritual of cloud and the ritual of begging. To transform it into an ancient weapon, the first thing to do is the ceremony of fire.

In this ritual, the weapon must be inserted into a violently burning fire source, making the blade become white-hot, then taken out to cool down, and then burned to cool down, repeated for 24 hours, even if the first step is completed.

However, this ritual can only be carried out in the lava of the crater in the main material plane, except that the fire on the elemental plane of fire can be carried out. And these precious gems I prepared are to arrange the protective circle of the fire ritual to prevent the weapon from being melted or damaged by the high temperature flame during the burning process.

When the first ritual is completed, I will be able to master the low-level ancient feats, and my weapons will also awaken many powerful special abilities, which greatly improves my strength. "

After listening to Thorne's explanation, Andrina glanced at him unexpectedly, and said with some worry: "Then your..."

However, before she finished speaking, Thorne was interrupted directly, and then she saw the other party shaking her head at her with a smile: "Enough, don't bother you."
