The latest chapter of Devil's Law [.86696.emofaze]

(Two in one, long chapter~)

On the third day after entering the mountain, Muse vaguely saw some clues—this team seemed to be trying to cross the Kilimaro Mountains!

This discovery surprised Muse in a big way!

The Kilimaro Mountains are a huge natural barrier from north to south on the mainland. They line up on the mainland, winding thousands of kilometers from northwest to southwest. The endless mountains are like a giant long snake crawling on the mainland - the only gap is the "Northwest Corridor" in the Northwest Desa province.

Other than that, other places are all majestic mountains towering into the clouds... Some mountains are winding and winding, with no end at a glance; some are lonely peaks like clouds, which make people admire .

Such a mountain range, if you want to climb over it, there are countless cliffs, steep mountain roads and natural gaps along the way, as well as solitary peaks and natural dangerous places!

It is said that even the lowest peak in the Kilimaro Mountains is more than 3,000 meters long!

After the team entered the mountain, in the past three days, they first followed a mountain road all the way up. After one day, the mountain road became steeper, and the further they went, the narrower it became.

However, although the mountain road was difficult to walk, these wolf cavalry were born to be extremely agile. Even in such a rugged place, if it was a human cavalry, it would have been impossible for them to advance. But those wolf knights can still control the giant wolf, move and jump. Move lightly on the mountain road.

Even the six hundred elves gave up their carts and walked on foot. The elves were originally slender, and their movements were as light as the wind, so naturally it was no problem.

The only one suffering is the Muse. Along the way, after two days of hiking on the mountain road, her feet had already developed blisters. After the blisters burst, she took every step she took. It's all burning pain. Muse was unwilling to lose her prestige in front of these enemies, but secretly gritted her teeth and insisted fiercely.

The big group of wolves rode hard in the mountains, and it was night. It is to make a fire, and get the food and dried meat that the wolf riders carried, and divide them for eating. The elves didn't eat these jerky, but brought some dry food with them. Muse, on the other hand, felt even more painful - in this team, it seemed that all the wolf riders were male werewolves, while the elves seemed to have no distinction between men and women. The only woman is Muse.

But she hadn't showered for ten days - when she was on the way with Longbottom and the others. It had been four days since I had seen water, and it had been so many days since I was captured by the North. At this moment, I felt that there was no place in my body that was not itchy and unbearable. Muse was originally a girl, although after entering the military camp, she has suffered a lot. But not taking a bath for more than ten days is still unbearable.

On the fourth day on the mountain road, the wolf rider began to consciously save food.

After all, it was a brigade of five thousand wolf riders. Before entering the mountain along the way, they brought a lot of food carts, but after entering the mountain, those grain carts had to be left outside the mountain. The wolf riders only carried a few days of rations and dried meat for their mounts.

Obviously, these carry-on rations. It is not enough for them to support them after crossing the mountain range—according to estimates, even if you are lucky and walk the nearest mountain road, it is impossible to think about it in less than twenty or thirty days. If you get lost in the mountains. I can't get out for two or three months. It is also unusual.

Fortunately, these orc wolves. But they have a natural talent, and they will not get lost in this kind of mountain forest. After walking for a few days, it seems that in this kind of wild ridge, the natural wildness in their blood has been aroused instead.

Later, these wolves can easily find water sources and the most convenient mountain roads in this mountain forest without even carefully identifying them. …

There are even wolves riding around, patrolling around when they are resting, and will soon bring back some hunted beasts to replenish their food reserves.

On the seventh day, Muse's leather boots were worn out, so she could only quietly pull a strip of cloth from her close-fitting clothes, wrap her feet up, and walk with difficulty in the worn-out boots.

The narrow mountain road has been going up to a mountain peak in the distance. Because of the narrow mountain road, the large army was compressed into a long line of snakes. The road could only accommodate two wolf riders walking side by side, and the team was dragged to the ground. The elders are long.

Muse walked staggeringly, but she was surrounded by cliffs. When she looked down, she saw that on the winding mountain road, the mountain road below was full of her own wolf cavalry.

After climbing over this high mountain, a team finally came above the "snow line"!

Starting from here, continuing to move forward, one can see that on the mountain peaks, the snow is all over the sky, and the air suddenly becomes cold, and on the top of the snow bee, the oxygen is even thinner. Muse was originally unable to support her body, and now she felt as if a stone had been pressed against her chest. Even though she took a deep breath with all her strength, she still felt out of breath.

And the thick snow and ice under the feet brought great difficulties to the team.

Muse's boots were already torn. After walking for half a day, a lot of ice and snow filled the boots. They were first stimulated by body temperature, melted, and then re-frozen. It almost made her freeze her feet.

Fortunately, those elves seemed to treat Muse very kindly along the way. Some elves saw Muse walking strangely, so they came up and helped her to sit down. After taking off their boots, they saw Muse's feet The few blisters on his skin have already been smoothed away, but the originally tender skin turned red from the cold. As soon as the elf's hand touched her ankle, Muse almost cried out in pain.

"You are frostbitten. Fortunately, I found out. Otherwise, if you walk for half a day, your feet will be frozen."

Afterwards, the elf took out a pair of boots from the bag he was carrying and handed them to Muse. The shape of the boots was very strange, the toe of the boots was raised high, and the ankle was inlaid with the shape of a leaf. What's even more strange is that the boots are by no means made of animal leather, but...

"It's made of the skin of a kind of tree vine." The elf looked very gentle, and smiled: "We elves are a natural race, so naturally we don't kill for skin. Our clan has cultivated a special Every year in summer, the vines will automatically shed their skin and shed the bark on the surface. This bark is strong and elastic, no worse than animal skin."

Muse noticed that the other party's words were "we elves". The wording is a bit strange. As if including himself.

However, this elf spoke the language of the human empire very fluently, and his attitude was very gentle, which made Muse feel a little closer to him.

"If you put on these boots and walk in them, your feet won't be cold."

Muse was a little dazed, and changed the boots. She really felt dry and warm, and her feet were frozen. It also quickly felt warm.

"These boots are waterproof. In summer, we also use this kind of tree vine bark to make clothes. Wearing them and jumping into the lake, the body will not get wet." The kind elf glanced at Muse's face again. clothing.

Muse was still wearing the mercenary uniform, but walking on the mountain road a few days ago, many places were scratched by branches. It looked a bit tattered and tattered. So the elf took out another cloak, put it on the Muse himself, and said softly: "This is a magic cloak, you won't be afraid of the cold when you wear it."

Muse let the other party put on the cloak, and felt the magic heat from the cloak, gradually warming her whole body. …

She didn't know what to do. But staring blankly at the elf in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted. Although the positions of the two sides are enemies and not friends, these elves have treated them very well along the way. At this moment, they are giving boots and clothes, and their words are gentle. He didn't take her as a prisoner of war at all. It's as if they are of the same kind.

"You...why are you so nice to me?" Muse shook her head vigorously.

"Because...we are the same." The elf smiled and stood up. Go down the line again.

Muse was stunned, and couldn't help murmuring: "It's the same..."

It turned out that Mrs. Liszt only told Angel about the identity of the mixed-blood elves of the three sisters of the Liszt family, but Muse didn't know it.

But at this moment, these elves spoke softly to her, but she couldn't help but feel a natural feeling of closeness in her heart. With those magical leather boots and magic cloak, the Muse finally doesn't have to suffer from the cold anymore. It's just that the trek on the mountain road is physically exhausting, but it also makes Muse feel strenuous.

Especially on the high mountains, it was difficult to breathe. After walking for a while, the feeling of dizziness made her almost fall off the cliff several times. Fortunately, the elves around him stopped him.

But on the tenth day, despite repeated savings before, the food was finally eaten.

The wolves scattered and began to search for food. Fortunately, there were many blue sheep, snow chickens and snow foxes living on the snow mountain.

And this area is inaccessible, these beasts are not afraid of people when they see them, and they don't know how to run away. And the wolf riders acted swiftly and hunted everywhere.

And the six hundred elves also made great contributions.

They carried a plant race unique to the elves with them. The elves sprinkled these races in the snow, and then cast the magic of the elves. Then in the snow, the seeds immediately grew and germinated, and soon one by one green plants in the snow suddenly climbed up!

These plants were intertwined like several vines, and soon formed thick trunks one by one. The highest point is even more than ten meters!

The branches and leaves grow out after a meal. The smallest leaves are the size of a washbasin, and the largest are even as big as a tabletop. And then, after the six hundred elves collectively chanted the incantation, the purple light enveloped the small magic plant, and soon, on the trunk, fruits grew one by one, and in an instant, dozens of big trees , It is full of fruits!

Those fruits were the size of pumpkins one by one. Many wolves and elves cheered when they saw this huge variety of fruits.

Soon, an elf picked a fruit and handed it to the Muse. He took out a dagger and cut it open gently, only to see that the flesh inside was golden yellow. Muse took a small bite, and immediately his mouth was full of fragrance, the flesh was delicate and plump, and he was full after only three or five bites.

And the other wolves also happily picked off all the fruits on the tree and shared the food.

After all the fruits were picked off, these big trees withered quickly, and the green branches and leaves quickly turned yellow and shrinking. Gradually shrank, and finally turned into a seed in the snow again. It's just that the used seeds looked withered and yellow.

"Don't worry. It's not dead." The elf recovered the seeds one by one: "We just have to wait for us to find a suitable water source and re-soak these seeds in water for a few days. After a year, it will regain its vitality."

The elves brought a whole pack of the seeds of this magical plant.

Relying on this thing, and occasionally hunting some wild animals to supplement, the group persisted for another full six days.

On the sixteenth day of entering the mountain, the food finally ran out. Even the fruit-bearing magical seeds carried by the elves have all been used up. …

However, this mountain has finally turned over!

On the seventeenth day, the mountain road ahead was already descending all the way, gradually, and soon everyone crossed the snow line. The surrounding scenery was no longer white, and some sparse plants and woods began to appear around. Occasionally, small pieces of blue sheep can be seen living here.

Seeing the prey, the wolves cheered immediately, dispatched several teams of wolf riders, and hunted everywhere, within a day. A hundred blue sheep were captured, as well as some grouse, mountain deer and the like.

In this line of work, although Muse is silent most of the time, she secretly calculates in her heart, but remembers her journey. A total of two peaks were browsed. The direction of the four snow-capped mountains is also all the way to the west.

When the terrain is getting lower and lower. The climate here is gradually warming up. The cold wind on the mountain was gone, and the air was slightly moist and warm. And on the nineteenth day, a heavy rain came suddenly, the team rested in a valley for a day, and the wolf clan separated a wolf cavalry to go out along the valley to explore the road.

When it was almost dawn, Muse heard those wolves suddenly cheering collectively. The howling of thousands of wolves was full of excitement and excitement. One by one werewolves raised their long knives and screamed, The birds in the surrounding woods flew into fright.

Muse felt a little nervous when he heard that, but the elf next to him said with a warm smile: "Well, don't be afraid. That's why we finally walked out of the mountains, and these guys called it that when they were happy."

"Out, out of the mountain..." Muse frowned.

Sure enough, after dawn, Muse also saw the group of wolf riders who came back from exploring the road. These wolf riders did not come back empty-handed, they also brought back some "prey".

Twenty-odd cattle and sheep, and four horses...and, three humans!

Humanity! !

The humans brought back by this team of wolf riders were three men, and one of them, judging from his appearance, might have just grown up.

The three captives were all dressed in sheepskin robes and rough cowhide boots. When they walked, they limped strangely, but they still had some bow-legged appearances that had only been formed after many years of riding. There was a dirty sheepskin hat on his head, the wool had all fallen off, and there were a few pieces of pudding.

After staying in the Northwest Desa Province for many years, Muse had dealt with many caravans. She could tell at a glance that the outfits of these three captives were the standard outfits of herdsmen on the grasslands!

Herdsmen? Grassland herdsmen?

Muse's eyes darkened a little.

The leather robes of these three herdsmen had been cut in many places, and all three of them had some scars. After being captured by the wolf riders, the young one among the three showed a bit of fear and panic on his face, while The eyes of the two older ones were only a little surprised, but there was not much fear, but more of a natural sternness!

On the grassland, the rough skin from the wind and sleeping, and the indifference in the eyes, was held up by the wolf rider with a long knife, and the herdsmen stared at the werewolves around them, but their faces were full of hatred!

Muse stood on the periphery without saying anything. Several elves walked over and talked with the werewolf for a while, and after returning, Muse was informed. These herdsmen were met by this team of wolf riders who went out to explore the road.

There was a family of herdsmen with about 17 or 18 people nearby. When they met the wolf cavalry, there were about 200 cavalry. As a result, the wolf cavalry wiped out all the herdsmen! Among the seventeen or eight people, there were old and weak women and children, and most of them were killed. Although the grassland herdsmen stood up and resisted. Moreover, according to the news brought back from the wolf cavalry, these sturdy herdsmen also caused some troubles for the wolf cavalry. swing bend

In the first battle, two wolf riders were actually injured. …

There is also a herdsman who relies on his excellent riding skills and fast horses. Before being annihilated, he managed to escape with all his might. These three captives were captured alive by wolf riders at the end of the battle—their family members had already turned into corpses at this moment. The tents were burned, and the cattle and sheep were brought back.

After hearing this, Muse was deeply shocked, but there was only one thought left!

grassland! We have come to the grassland! We climbed the Kilimaro Mountains. Come to the grassland! !

These five thousand wolf riders, plus six hundred elf warriors. Has quietly crossed the empire's barrier and came to the grassland on the side of the empire! ! !

The three herdsmen who were captured were interrogated once by the wolves, but it was a pity that although the elves had learned human languages, they were only limited to the language of the empire. Can't speak the language of prairie people. In the team, the only one who understands the grassland language is Muse.

But of course Muse herself would not take the initiative, she stood quietly aside, thinking carefully.

Originally, Muse thought that these werewolves would lock himself up with three prairie captives. But she was wrong—it seemed that along the way, these guys treated her preferentially. As if purely because the elves took care of themselves. But these elves didn't seem to have a good impression of the three prairie captives—from the eyes the elves cast on the three prairie herdsmen, apart from hostility, there was even a bit of disgust and contempt in those eyes. As if looking at them one more time would dirty their eyes.

Three herdsmen. Since there is no cross-examination and interrogation. Then it was quickly ordered to be killed by the wolves.

Muse had no choice but to watch the three herdsmen being stabbed to death. Before dying, that young boy shouted loudly in grassland dialect. The Muse heard the young lad's cry:

"The great witch king will punish you monsters! The great snow mountain god will take revenge on you for the bloodshed of the grassland children!"

That night, Muse did not fall asleep, she was only thinking in her heart: These wolves, who worked hard to climb the mountains, escaped death and ran to the grassland, why? !

Three days later, Muse finally confirmed her guess!

My group really came to the grassland!

After trekking in the mountains for a full twenty days, even though the wolf riders were elite, they were exhausted long ago. Because of the lack of food, in order to save food for many days, most of the wolf riders were half-starved, and only a few elites maintained sufficient rations and maintained their combat effectiveness.

Under the order of the leader of the wolf cavalry, Dominus, five thousand elite wolf cavalry rested in this valley for three full days, and at the same time sent several groups of wolf cavalry to search around. In three days, the wolf cavalry of the four hundred cavalry team wiped out more than ten stockades of grassland herdsmen, killed hundreds of herdsmen, and snatched back a large number of cattle, sheep and horses—all of them turned into wolves Food for riding.

Three days later, after nearly a month of trekking, the exhausted Wolf Rider finally recovered. Those werewolves who had regained their energy had a ferocious light in their eyes again, and they began to sharpen their blades, wipe their armor, and feed the giant wolves...

Early this morning, under the order of the leader of the wolf riders, five thousand wolf riders set off and walked out of this mountain...

Less than a few miles out of the mountain, the terrain ahead suddenly opened up! I saw thousands of miles of green in front of me, endless! The vast grassland, there is no end in sight at a glance!

In the distance, the junction of the green grass and the blue sky seems to be connected to the city!

It was the first time for most werewolves to see such an open grassland. Except for the small team that went out to hunt, most werewolves couldn't help but howled as they drew their knives on the backs of giant wolves!

A wildness hidden in their blood was stimulated under the scenery of green grass and blue sky! …

Wolf! It should have lived in this kind of world!

This wave of wolf riding has become a bloody wind on the grassland!

Five thousand wolf riders plus six hundred elf warriors turned into a massacre and walked on the grassland for three days! Three days time. Wherever they went, they burned, killed, looted, and all the small groups of herdsmen who encountered them were wiped out!

Although the prairie people are tough and good at riding and shooting, after all, those small groups of herdsmen can only have a population of three to five hundred at most, and the young and strong are only 30% of the total population. When encountering such five thousand wolf cavalry, they can only be bullied. It's up to you.

along the way. The cattle and sheep of the herdsmen became food for the wolves, and one by one nomadic villages were burned and killed. The wolf riders encountered little effective resistance.

Moreover, wolf cavalry moves quickly. Come and go like the wind, just hit and go. Even if several big tribes on the grassland got the news that such an alien enemy had appeared and were about to organize people to resist, the wolf riders had already gone away!

Muse followed in the team, puzzled in his mind—what are these five thousand elite wolf riders doing here?

Run to the back of the empire to sneak attack? But it's not like it.

Although five thousand wolf riders are elite, if they run to the interior of the empire. Then there is only one way to kill yourself. What's more, this is a grassland, burning, killing and looting here, what does it have to do with the empire?

Finally on the eighth day after entering the grassland.

Wolf Riders have encountered a caravan!

This is a caravan from the interior of the empire. There are nearly a hundred people in the caravan, including thirty mercenary guards from the Desert Fox Mercenary Group.

Seeing the long cavalry, hundreds of wolf riders rushed up immediately!

Muse saw the caravan from a distance, leading the leader on top of the horse. A familiar flag is being planted!

Golden tulip flag! !

On the prairie, any caravan with a tulip flag has long become the object of awe of various tribes. Due to Du Wei's prestige in the northwest, even the most powerful Saladin on the prairie has to look up to Du Wei. , on the prairie. Absolutely no tribe would dare to rob a caravan carrying the flag of the Tulip family!

But this time, looking at the roaring wolf riders, the caravan was obviously caught off guard, and before they could gather the horses to form a defensive formation, they were directly overwhelmed by the roaring wolf riders!

Seeing the caravans of the Tulip family being massacred by wolf cavalry, Muse blushed. He clenched his fists. Grit your teeth desperately. He was about to go up and try his best, but was stopped by the elves around him. Those elves are powerful. Even possessing magical abilities, Muse immediately lost all her strength when two people pressed on her shoulders.

They watched as hundreds of people in this caravan were massacred. Dozens of mercenaries fought to the end, some were hacked to death by wolf riders, some were bitten to death by giant wolves, until the last person died!

Finally, several merchants in the caravan were arrested. These merchants can not only speak the language of the empire, but also understand the language of the grassland people, but they are captured by the elves under special orders!

"They need translation." Muse immediately understood.

Sure enough, when the elves were interrogating these merchants, they didn't deliberately hide it from Muse and let Muse stand aside.

Several people are ordinary businessmen, and they spent money to pay protection fees in the territory of the Tulip family to get the protection of the tulip flag and the escort of the Desert Fox Mercenary Group. Originally, I thought I could have a safe trip, but I didn't expect to meet such a group of wolf riders who suddenly fell from the sky!

The businessmen were all trembling with fright. They were just ordinary people, and they just said everything under the devouring eyes and blades of the werewolves around them.

The Muse heard it clearly, and only heard an elf asking in a cold voice:

"The way to Daxueshan, how to get there!"

Upon hearing this, Muse's expression changed instantly!

Daxueshan! !

In the northwest, who doesn't know the prestige of the Daxue Mountain on the grassland?

The disciples of Daxue Mountain, the magical wizard...and...

And that Witch King who is regarded as a god by the grassland people! !

These guys, their goal is Daxueshan? !

It's a pity that although these businessmen can speak some prairie dialect, none of them know where the Daxue Mountain is.

The wolf cavalry is cruel and savage, ask the first one first, I don’t know, just cut it in two with one knife!

Ask the second one again, I don’t know, it’s just a knife if you go down!

When the third prisoner was asked, the man was already trembling with fright, his face was ashen, and he smelled a bad smell, but even his pants were wet.

But Muse walked out with bold strides, looking coldly at the many werewolves and elves.

"Are you going to the Great Snow Mountain!"

The elves were all taken aback, and Muse looked stern: "I ask you, are you going to Daxue Mountain!"

"Yes, we are going to the Great Snow Mountain." An elf walked over with a gentle expression, and it was the one who gave Muse leather boots and a magic cloak when he was on the mountain.

"Let them go!" Muse pointed to the remaining captives with a firm expression, "I'll take you there!!"

It's the last two days of this month! Folks, ask for update ticket support!
