Chapter 208 Outside Yongye City
The City of Forgetfulness is like a shining pearl in the wilderness. The arcane ring suspended in the sky forms the upper structure of the city, which is an area that Mu Hua and Nick are not qualified to set foot in.
When viewed from a distance, some floating castles are connected on the periphery of the Arcane Ring. This is a city that perfectly integrates technology and magic.
Compared to the neat and mysterious City of Forgetfulness, the areas outside the city maintain a natural environment where plants grow wildly.
This is definitely not intentional, I'm afraid it's just that no one takes care of it and no one pays attention to the various things outside the city.
Except for a relatively straight road that runs through the entire courtyard, there are basically no traces of artificial construction in the area near the Capital of Forgetfulness.
Even this road looks like it was swept out by some powerful magic.
The pristine natural environment breeds a large number of venomous insects, snakes, and rats. I heard that the demons who manage the courtyard will also release some monsters in the courtyard.
But even mid-level monsters are usually framed and killed by little demons who regard them as threats before they reproduce naturally.
Well, the little devil is just a snack to most mid-level monsters, but Yonekura can also drown people. . .
Bairi River, a river that seems to always glow with a purple shimmer.
This river is the main river of Yongye Territory, and it meanders through the courtyard in all directions.
The reason why this river emits a strange light is because the demons throw the demon eggs into the river and let them drift with the current to various parts of the courtyard. They also allow the demon eggs to hatch in the water.
This is a river modeled after the Blood Sea of Hell. It is the cradle of little devils.
Although the color of the water is weird, it has to be said that the river water does not affect human drinking during the day, and even has the effect of improving the human body's physical condition.
As for the effectiveness? Well, at least it is much better than the mineral water that Mu Hua blew to the sky in his previous life, but it always reminds Mu Hua of a group of cheating people, and Mu Hua is not sensitive to the river water. . .
A large number of skeletal undead are walking in the lush wilderness, and flocks of ravens shuttle among the shady green trees. When these ravens fly together, they will form a flock of birds like a dark cloud.
Leaving the city and setting foot on this primitive landscape, Mu Hua had a face with a healthy complexion. Otherwise, the atmosphere he created would definitely be more like a lich than a human being.
An undead team composed of skeleton warriors and skeleton guards. Even if there are hundreds of undead at this level, they will not cause the little devil to flee.
The undead lance controlled by the mage floated next to Mu Hua's body. It was like a poisonous snake. Some little devils hidden among trees, grass and rocks would often be penetrated by this lance as long as they touched Mu Hua's sight. .
Skeleton guard summoned beasts, fifty dragon tooth soldiers, more than thirty skeleton mages, and hundreds of skeleton warriors who were regarded as cannon fodder by Mu Hua.
These undead hunt in groups of three or five. Except for the skeleton mage who follows Mu Hua, other skeletal undead will drag back some dead or half-disabled little devils from time to time so that the skeleton mage can harvest experience.
Mu Hua has a lot of experience orbs, but he does not intend to use these experience orbs on the skeleton mage, at least not until they are unable to improve his own experience.
A considerable number of undead skeletons were spread out, giving a somewhat majestic look.
In fact, Mu Hua still has more skeleton warriors, but he has not yet found the place where the little devils are densely populated. Releasing more will slow down the exploration speed.
Imps are different from goblins. Strictly speaking, imps cannot be regarded as social creatures.
Because they have a very strong need for evolution, and for demons at this stage, eating their own kind is very helpful for them to clarify their bloodline.
It's like simple addition and subtraction. If a little devil with Balrog bloodline eats a little devil that also has Balrog bloodline, it can perfect its Balrog bloodline. If it eats enough, it can make the Balrog bloodline grow. They stand out among many bloodlines.
But apart from the dominant bloodline directly inherited from the previous generation, the little devils don't know what other bloodlines they have.
It is said that only children make choices, but the little devil wants them all!
Since you have no choice, why not just eat as much as possible?
This also causes little devils to be stabbed in the waist by their own kind at any time.
Unless they encounter threats that require them to be together, they will choose to live alone and hide most of the time.
Generally, when the undead skeletons gather together, the attribute status of the undead skeletons at all levels is very average, because those who are not equal will be killed by them.
And more than a dozen little devils gathered together in a relatively comfortable environment. If there were no corresponding restraints, within a few days, all of these dozen little devils would have entered the belly of one of them.
This kind of survival atmosphere where the jungle is absolute and the strong eats the strong may be the fundamental reason for shaping the devil's cunning and cruel character.
For Mu Hua today, imps are easy to kill, and they are much safer than imps that can cast fireball magic.
However, due to lack of concentration, Mu Hua could not find the feeling of killing freely.
Walking along the direction leading to a section of Bairi River, stopping and stopping, you still need to wait for the skeleton warriors who are chasing the fleeing little devil to catch up.
Occasionally, you can see flying winged demons in the sky, and observe the undead team on the ground. Most of them will watch curiously.
When the existence of Mu Hua, a human being, is confirmed, those winged demons often leave directly.
It was not until nightfall that Mu Hua arrived at the riverside. According to what the succubus sister from the 'Garden of Eden' said, there were more little devils gathering along the river during the day.
The Bairi River must have been transformed by the owner of the courtyard by some means. This river is very suitable for the incubation of devil eggs.
Because many demon eggs will hatch in the White River, instead of attacking the same kind that are also fatal threats to them, many little demons in the courtyard will lurk by the water in order to sneak attack on the newly hatched little demons.
This is a world full of barbarism and cruelty. Compared with the aggressive little devils in the wild, the higher-ranking devils in this courtyard are surprisingly harmonious.
Conflict and chaos filled the wilderness, and along the way, he harvested some attribute crystals and several Mage Hand skill stones. Mu Hua seemed to have become a cruel member of the wilderness.
"Hey! Look what I see? A necromancer." A rude voice with a hint of ridicule came.
The Bairi River is not a small ditch. Mu Hua asked the undead to search for nearby little devils along the river. In the river with a width of more than ten feet, a horned demon warlord on a ship docked saw Mu Hua driving the undead. .
"Humans, take care of those dirty undead souls. This is the first time I have seen a necromancer in Yongye Territory. I thought you were only interested in bones and corpses."
Making eye contact with Mu Hua, the Horned Demon Warlord came towards Mu Hua with a group of middle and low-level demons of mixed races.
The Horned Demon Overseer is a powerful demon whose adult height can reach four meters. Overseer is not their position, but the name of this group.
This kind of demon is a mid-level demon, but its strength can generally reach the level of high-level demons.
They have thick devil horns, strong bodies, and are good at close combat.
Because they are almost immune to all mental interference magic, whether it is the charm of Arachne, the fear of the Headless Horseman, or the hypnosis of the Dream Demon, they will not have any adverse effects on them.
They can even ignore the power of the dragon.
Therefore, they are usually appointed as frontline commanders like supervisors on the battlefield, which is the origin of their name.
The number of demons led by the Horned Demon Overseer in front of me is not that many, including more than thirty hell werewolves, more than a dozen claw demons, a spider demon still in the form of a spider, and two Lamian demons similar to Medusa.
This is also a team of demon hunters. Their purpose is the same as Mu Hua's, which is to hunt down little demons.
If we go by the habits of the human world, they should be regarded as civil servants in this courtyard.
The little devils don't just attack little devils, they will attack any creature by setting traps.
The little devils gathered by the river are also troublesome. In this courtyard, there will also be existences like the horned devil governor in front of me, and they will clean up the little devils regularly.
When they kill the little devils, they will also collect the corpses of the little devils, and these corpses will be fed to some of the little devils they raised.
In order to give birth to demons with relatively good bloodlines among the little demons, the master of the courtyard will then screen them and select those suitable to be subdued and raised.
The owner of this courtyard does not seem to be obsessed with the emotional power provided by humans. This place is like her devil's breeding ground.
And judging from the fact that she chose mostly female demons, maybe this is her leisure work that is better than nothing?
"What? What's the problem?" Facing the approaching Horned Demon Warlord, Mu Hua was cold and a little wary.
Although I heard that in this courtyard, the 'official' demons should be classified as beings that pose no threat to humans, but who can say for sure about this group of demons?
