Red Dragon Emperor

Chapter 159: The enemy's traces are beginning to appe

Under the dim sky of the gloomy region, on the lush vegetation land, the caveman-Naduo followed the kobold army all the way.

   Thinking back to the three-day experience, he felt like a dream.

   Three days ago, he unfortunately encountered Kou Tao murlocs while gathering berries outside, and was captured back as a slave, and then became a sacrifice to the evil god.

Looking at the dagger held high by the murloc priest, he thought that his life was about to end, but he killed a group of kobolds, jackals, and ogres, and then learned that his tribe had taken refuge in a powerful dragon. .

   Originally, the kobold team planned to send away the rescued cavemen, but they found a large number of pearls while collecting the trophies in the Kou Tao murloc tribe, and planned to go home. Therefore, the lucky cavemen were picked up together.

  攫攫攫. "Wa hahaha……"

In front of the ogre was a busy and reckless laugh. Naduo looked up at the shoulders of the talking and laughing ogre. On the ogre's broad shoulders was a three-meter-long behemoth with bright red blood. Flow down the slender tail, dripping to the ground.

   Crypt wolf!

   This terrifying and extraordinary beast that could destroy the caveman's village just died!

   He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, recalling the scene when the kobold warrior shot and killed the crypt wolf.

   At that time, everyone hadn't reacted. The strong kobold pulled out the spear behind him without warning, and the spear shot into the distant darkness with translucent energy.

   Then there was a cry of painful beasts, and everyone found that in the grass more than 100 meters away, a crypt wolf was nailed to the ground with a spear.

   Since then, Naduo has a more sober awareness of the strength of this team, and at the same time can't help but feel curious about the mysterious dragon that the kobolds say.

   To subdue such a terrifying strong, the dragon must be very strong...

   The barren brain of the caveman unfolds endless reveries.

   went all the way, two hours later, the team saw a tribe of rotten toe cavemen.

   A small hill near the rock wall, the crypt on the side of the hill is the home of the rotten-toed caveman.

   The caveman’s home at this time was a little different from its usual calm appearance. A large number of kobolds, jackals, and a few ogres appeared outside the tribe.

   嗷 woo~!

   The alert wolves spotted the approaching team for the first time and let out a welcoming wolf howl.

   After returning to the temporary base in this dark area, Soda left the team alone and went into the expropriated caveman's crypt.

   Speaking of it, the living habits of cavemen are similar to those of kobolds. They both like to drill mountains and dig holes. However, kobolds are looking for mineral veins, and cavemen are mainly to avoid predators in the dark areas.

   Through the deep crypt, Soda saw the red-robed kobold behind the wooden table: "Brother, I'm back."

   Two-material high-ranking master-Ying Gou raised his head and nodded at the returning brother: "Anything to find?"

   "We went all the way to the west, two hours on foot, and encountered a freshwater lake. There was a Koutau murloc tribe beside the lake. However, this group of Koutau murlocs were almost killed by us..."

   Soda said as he wrote and painted on the sheepskin scroll with a quill pen.

   With the dim light of the oil lamp, Soda watched his brother draw the location of the lake on the sheepskin scroll and marked the approximate topography along the way, giving his opinions from time to time.

   Not long after, the results of this expedition were recorded on the sheepskin scroll.

   That's right, the kobolds are drawing a map of this dark area. This is the order of the red dragon.

  According to the red dragon's instructions, every time the kobold enters a dark area, the first step is to explore the dark area, remove the threat from the territory, and draw a corresponding map.

   These maps will be taken back by the copied party to the red dragon for viewing.

   Thinking that the map would be presented to the owner, Ying Gou drew it extra seriously. After drawing it, he picked up the map and discussed with his elder brother to fill in the missing.

   While chatting, the Kobold brothers talked about the progress of this dark area.

Ying Gou looked at the large blank area on the sheepskin scroll: "According to the observation of the harpy, this dark area is a medium-sized dark area. We have already explored one-third of the area. It will not be long before the owner's territory. The territory will expand again."

   A hint of regret flashed in Suoda's eyes: "Unfortunately, if the big bats in the dark areas are not too dangerous, and the harpy is too weak, otherwise the harpy clan will directly take on the task of surveying and mapping, then it would be so troublesome."

   "Thinking about it the other way round, it happened that we kobolds got this function."

   "This is..."

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}   Modo Peak Forest, Molten Heart.

   Boom boom boom!

   Jose stood by the lava lake experimenting with flame magic. The violent magic exploded on the surface of the lava lake, and the loud rumbling noise echoed in the underground space.

   Behind the red dragon, a kobold guard in crimson armor walked out of the nine-ring spiral staircase, stopped in front of the exit, and did not dare to go forward. Those seven or eight-meter salamanders were not a joke.

   Directly in front of the nine-ring spiral staircase, seventy or eighty salamanders stared at the kobold at the exit, and the forked tongues stick out their mouths from time to time. As long as he dares to take a step forward, the petrified rays and flame rays will be shot out instantly.

   "Come here," the red dragon head didn't turn back.

   got the permission of the red dragon, and the kobold guards continued to move forward, carefully crossing the gap between the salamanders, walking behind the red dragon, and placing the three parchment scrolls in his hands with both hands.

   "Master, this is what Mr. Ying Gou sent back."

  巘戅Book warehouse nets. The invisible hand of magic picked up the three sheepskin rolls in the kobold's hands, and the sheepskin rolls flew in front of the red dragon and slowly unfolded.

  Scenes like this have happened many times, because the red dragon ordered the kobolds to report the situation every other month, regardless of whether they had gained or not.

   Unfolding the sheepskin scroll, Jose sees the familiar handwriting of the kobold family.

"My greatest master, the exploration of the dark area of ​​H003 has been completed. This dark area is a medium-sized dark area with many springs and lakes, which has extremely high development value... A total of 124 extraordinary beasts in the crypt have been cleared. Suppress the two stone-head monster tribes and reap the spoils..., hereby present the map."

   "Currently exploring the dark area of ​​H004. The dark area of ​​H004 also has water resources and is of high development value. We have discovered a caveman tribe. The cavemen are honored to be the children of the real dragon and have sworn allegiance..."

   It didn't take long for Jose to finish reading the report of his family, and then he looked at the map of the dark area numbered H003, and kept the map in his mind, especially the location of the entrance of the dark area H003 to other dark areas.

  攫攫攫. The dark areas are well-connected, and it is necessary to remember that the tunnels connecting each space are necessary to avoid getting lost.

   After reading the map, the red dragon rolled three sheepskin scrolls out of thin air, and flew back to the guards of the kobold again.

   The kobold guard retreated with the parchment rolls. Next, he would sort and archive these parchment rolls as a basis for developing the dark territories in the future.

   巘戅戅. After experiencing this episode, Jose continued his magic practice, because he understood that his own strength is the root of everything.

  ………………………………

   Spring is going to fall, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

   In the past six months, the most interesting thing for the residents of the Modo Peak Forest Monster is the new city under construction. The city wall of the new city, which is still under construction, surrounds the entire mountain and covers an extremely large area.

   No need to guess, this new city must be an important city in the future.

   What's more, what most monster residents don't know is that in the dark area deep underground, the monster army marched all the way, expanding the number of the dark area to H007.

  Of course, the exploration of the dark regions is not smooth. Kobolds have encountered many difficulties, such as the indigenous tribes of the dark regions that dominate a region, the Kou Tao murlocs who use lakes to fight guerrillas, and the powerful and extraordinary beasts beyond the scope of the army.

   These obstacles were leveled one by one.

  Aboriginal tribes in the dark regions that dominate a domain are symmetrical, and they gather superior forces, the kobold army is the main force, the goblin cannon fodder is the pioneer, and the jackals, ogres, and harpies cooperate to destroy them.

   In order to deal with the Kou Tao murlocs who fled into the lake from time to time, he jumped out from time to time to cause destruction, and Ying Gou specially reported the red dragon and borrowed the murloc army from the white dragon-Casey.

   One time, the Kou Tao murloc tribe was located on a small island in the center of the lake, and the white dragon personally dispatched it to annihilate it.

   The powerful and extraordinary beasts beyond the scope of the army are dealt with by the red dragon himself. These extraordinary beasts are either surrendered or killed.

   It is not the goal to conquer the dark regions and kill the monsters, natives and extraordinary beasts within, but to develop the dark regions and make them the source of power to support the development of the forces.

   Jose planned related actions.

   Among the seven dark areas from H001 to H007, three have water sources, which are suitable for the survival of monster residents and can directly carry out related development.

   Externally, the Red Dragon sent an army of monsters to build outposts to block the exit of the dark area, and inside, an army of monsters sent out to hunt down dangerous creatures in the dark area.

   After clearing out the dangerous creatures in the gloomy region, the great immigration began.

   The explosive growth of monster residents in the Modo Peak Forest entered the dark areas in large numbers, building towns, reclaiming farmland, exploring mineral veins...

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}   There are only three dark areas that can be directly developed, and there are four dark areas that are not suitable for living creatures due to various factors. The most important point is Lack of water.

   Jose also did not abandon these barren land.

   He introduced water sources by digging wells, draining water from other dark areas, etc., and hired druids from elven allies to transform the original environment and make it usable land.

   However, the name of the forbidden place for adventure in the gloomy region is not for nothing. Finally, one day, the exploration team encountered trouble.

   On the dim ground in the gloomy region, the jackal thief——Tamuge bent over, cautiously walking in the direction of the **** coming.

  厺厽品书网 vodtw.org 厺厽. A day ago, a kobold mid-level warrior led a team of fifty people out to explore, but the result was never going back.

  The leader of the kobold commanded by the town felt something was wrong, and sent a middle-level jackal thief——Tamuge looking in the direction where the team was leaving, so there was the present scene.

   Tamuge raised his head and sniffed, smelling the smell of blood in the wind.

The    jackals have a keen sense of smell and can easily distinguish odor molecules in the air, and distinguishing the smell of blood is a compulsory course for all jackals.

   The blood of a kobold, which is mixed with a small amount of the same family.

  Tamuge made a judgment, with a solemn mood.

  The team was killed!

   He didn't know who was the murderer who killed his team. After all, this is a completely unfamiliar dark region, and extraordinary beasts and crypt natives may be the murderers.

   No matter what, the enemy's strength is very strong, otherwise a regular army led by mid-level fighters will not be able to escape without a messenger.

   To make matters worse, he is not sure whether the murderer has left. If he did not leave, his life would be in danger if he rushed forward.

   However, Tamuge is a qualified thief who has received strict investigation training.

   He calmed down quickly and approached the **** source cautiously, while looking around, trying to find clues.

   However, until he clearly smelled the blood, he still didn't notice anything.

  Tamuge gently slashed through the grass, looking through the gap to the open space in the distance.

   There are many corpses in the open space in the distance. These corpses are his target-the missing team.

   He frowned slightly and observed calmly.

   The corpse was intact, there were no signs of bites, and it was not done by a beast.

   is not done by wild beasts, and the corpse shed blood again, then it can only be killed by sharp weapons, only intelligent creatures can use weapons

   Tamuge made a preliminary judgment in his mind~lightnovelpub.net~ Staying motionless in the grass, watching and sniffing his nose.

   After a while, he made sure that no enemy remained here, walked out of the grass, and strode towards the scene of the incident.

   approached the scene of the incident. He turned the nearest kobold body over and saw a terrible crack in the kobold's throat. This was the cause of the kobold's death.

   Scratching the wound, Tamuge's mood grew heavier.

  The wound is smooth, which shows that the enemy’s weapons are very sharp. Only highly civilized intelligent creatures have sharp weapons, such as drow and gray dwarves. These two are much more difficult to deal with than ordinary crypt natives.

   Jackal thieves checked other corpses again, and found that all the corpses had very smooth wounds, confirming that the attacker was an intelligent creature with a certain degree of civilization.

  In the shallow dark areas, the most common intelligent creatures are drow and gray dwarves. A considerable part of the gray dwarves’ usual weapons are hammers, and none of the corpses here were killed by hammers.

   "Drow!" Tamuge muttered to himself.

   Counting the corpses around the battlefield, he found that there were obviously fewer corpses.

   searched for a while, he found the direction of the enemy's retreat, and the footprints of his companions appeared in this direction.

   "Our people have been taken away!"

   Without the slightest nostalgia, Tamuge turned around and walked quickly towards the stronghold. He wanted to go back and report the terrible accident to the chief.

   If the enemy retreats in a drow city, even his chief has no right to deal with the matter. He must report the matter to a higher level, and finally report it to the red dragon. The great real dragon will decide this matter.
