Chapter 303 309: Friction with the Natives
Earth Dragon Realm.
This is an inconspicuous area of the Desert Province.
Barren mountains and deserts cover an area with a radius of seven to eight hundred miles.
The daytime in the desert is extremely hot, even the howling wind carries scorching energy, causing living beings to quickly exhaust their strength, making it easy to become weak.
If one encounters the terrifying natural disaster, especially the famous "Crimson Sandstorm" of this region, one is likely to be torn to pieces, resulting in immediate bodily death, very dangerous.
Of course.
Although the climate of the desert is rather harsh.
Although natural disasters are frequent in the desert.
But on this vast land, many creatures and races still live, and Jackal Wolfman is one of the not very famous ones among them.
The ancestors of the Jackal Wolfman were once prosperous.
Six hundred years ago, there was a Great Lord among the Jackal Wolfman.
Legend has it that this Great Lord had more than several thousand high-level Jackal Wolfman under his command, and the scale of his army was so large that the surrounding Minor Lords willingly offered tribute and dared not have any rebellious thoughts.
Unfortunately.
The Great Lord of the Jackal Wolfman was not content with the status quo.
After the fall of the Governor of the Province back then, the Great Lord of the Jackal Wolfman attempted to covet the vacant throne of the Spirit Realm Governor, yet was he alone in wanting to sit on this throne?
Any powerful Great Lord.
None doesn't want to become the Governor of the Province!
The Desert Province is far from the central authority, and occupying the Celestial Desolation City to become the Governor of the Desert Province is equivalent to becoming a feudal lord, an Earth King, having the right to rule the entire province.
The strength of the Great Lord of the Jackal Wolfman was not advantageous compared to other Great Lords, thus he was eliminated during the competition, leading to the disintegration of the Jackal Wolfman forces, becoming an insignificant presence in the Desert Province.
Most of the high-level Jackal Wolfman were wiped out.
Now, in the western region of the Desert Province, there are many Jackal Wolfman subspecies monsters... these Jackal Wolfman formed after the fall of those high-level Jackal Wolfman.
Later, a number of Awakened emerged among them.
Each Awakened Jackal Wolfman believes they are the descendants of the Great Lord.
Yeno and Yegu think so too, so restoring the glory of their ancestors is their most urgent desire.
However, the current number of high-level Jackal Wolfman is too small, and their power is very weak; even banding together, they don't amount to much, and as soon as they show their heads, they are suppressed, only able to exist like marauders.
"What's this!"
"Never seen such a race!"
At this moment, in front of the Jackal Wolfman squad.
Lie several human corpses that had been killed.
They began to glow and bit by bit started to evaporate.
Yegu seemed very confused, "Yeno, have you seen this race before?"
All Jackal Wolfmans look similar; they are far taller and stronger than Kobolds, with an average height of about two meters, topped by a coyote's head, looking very fierce.
Even indigenous to the Spirit Realm have an age.
Usually calculated based on the time since awakening.
Yegu is already five years old and because he awakened as a "Jackal Wolfman Assassin," he is naturally a Combat Professional, wearing leather armor, having a fairly complete set of equipment, his weapon is a reverse-grip short blade and a longbow slung on his back.
Yeno is already six years old and because he awakened as a "Jackal Wolfman Warlock," he is naturally destined to be a Magic Professional, wearing a mage's robe, holding a long staff, but as someone who has lived for six years and died less than ten times, he is also proficient in some combat skills.
The two emerged from the same place.
They are both stuck at the level 10 bottleneck.
After all, after level 10, leveling up requires not only Spiritual Qi but also stringent conditions; at this level, not leveling for several years is common in the Spirit Realm.
"Never seen before!" Yeno shook his head: "Looks a bit like the Desert Elves of the south, but there are differences, never heard of them, they might come from other places, or even other provinces."
The Desert Elves are a race in the southern part of the Desert Province.
They are a branch of the Elf Race.
Have the characteristics of the Elf Race.
But are different too.
Humans, just at a glance, indeed resemble elves.
Yegu said: "Didn't fit in, so they fled to our desert? Looking at their strength, they are simply pitifully weak, seems they have been heavily exploited and oppressed, and the things they drop, are too poor!"
Yeno activated the reconnaissance skills.
He began to investigate all around: "Their scent comes from within the Desolate Wolf Valley; maybe they have companions."
Yegu said: "Let's first kill the prey including the Desolate Wolf Leader, then hunt these weak alien races!"
Yeno and Yegu had calculated the time; recently, several Lord Monsters were about to resurrect, so they came to this small place, the Desolate Wolf Valley. Unexpectedly, aside from a few lord-level prey, there was also a batch of "refugee" weak alien races.
Kill!
Nothing much to say!
The Spirit Realm has always been survival of the fittest!
When encountering alien races of unknown origin, first assess their strength.
If the opponent is very weak and is a faction never heard of, they are prey, kill directly!
If the team is strong or comes from a powerful faction, then run as far away as possible!
As long as there is no allied race or ally relationship, killing the opponent allows plundering of Spiritual Qi, plundering resources; as long as this rule in the Spirit Realm does not change, the main tone of the Spirit Realm is destined to be cruel, dark, and full of slaughter.
Yeno and Yegu are not considered strong among the natives.
But they don't take this unfamiliar yet weak race seriously.
The two high-level Jackal Wolfman are accompanied by six elite subspecies, all at level 10.
If these weak race companions are also this weak, they will be traced by the Jackal Wolfman along the scent, and then it will be a frenzy of slaughter... they can gain Spiritual Qi loot, and also weaken their strength, to prevent this unknown race from growing in the future.
After rapidly moving for half an hour or so.
Yeno and Yegu suddenly changed their expressions.
"This place doesn't feel right, there's another presence!"
The two Jackal Wolfman clearly felt that, apart from a large group of Desert Wolves passing through here, there were also several strange presences hidden among them; their reconnaissance technique was not as good as Er Gou, and could not distinguish the strength of the presence, but identifying the presence itself was not a problem.
"The scent is very fresh!"
"Right nearby!"
The moment the two Jackal Wolfman detected something amiss.
Suddenly, from all sides, emerged a large group of Desert Wolves.
The two high-level Jackal Wolfman looked completely dumbfounded; they did not expect to be ambushed by Desert Wolves, but did Desert Wolves have such high intelligence? Even the Desolate Wolf Leader is not so cunning!
No matter!
Attack first!
Yeno cast a Second Tier area attack magic over.
"You four, protect Yeno!"
"You two, follow me!"
Yegu ordered the six subspecies soldiers.
Then, he activated Stealth, disappeared on the spot, and went to find the hidden controller.
At this time.
A figure appeared above Yeno's head.
Hang Xiaobai directly released Illusion Dust to envelop.
At the same time, several black and white striped Dogs, under the cover of the Desert Wolves, launched an attack on several subspecies soldiers.
These Dogs look very inconspicuous, but in reality, their speed and strength far surpass ordinary Elite Desert Wolves, almost reaching the level of the Golden Elites, close to a lord, and can cause significant damage when ambushing ordinary Jackal Wolfman subspecies soldiers.
Er Gou transformed directly.
After transforming, Er Gou.
The basic Attributes were already not weaker than a wild Lord.
With one swipe of his paw, a subspecies soldier was sent flying.
Hang Xiaobai's strength has not fully recovered.
She is currently only at level 9, which is weaker than Yeno.
As Yeno was about to cast magic, a Spiritual Whip struck, causing him to fall into a daze on the spot, as it turned out to be a sneak attack by the Human-faced Ant Queen, with the assistance of Dogs and the Human-faced Ant Queen, Bai was enough to suppress this not-so-strong Jackal Wolfman.
As for Yegu.
He is an agile and speed-type player!
His Movement Speed is simply too fast!
The reason the humans could be swiftly killed before was due to this guy's doings.
Hang Yu activated the Enhanced Eagle Eye reconnaissance ability, which could directly see through Yegu's First Tier Stealth Skill; he activated the newly acquired Wolf Pack Summoning Scroll, summoning four Golden Elite level Desert Wolves immediately by his side, then pulled out a Summoning Talisman, summoning a level 10 Undead Knight.
Desert Wolves can break Invisibility.
Undead Monsters can also break Invisibility.
Yegu was instantly surrounded by five elites!
Hang Yu drew two weapons and charged in to join the fight.
There were only two high-level Jackal Wolfman, fewer than expected, weaker than expected, should be manageable!
