Demon Lord

Chapter 416 What the Hell Happened...

The battle that took place on the snow seemed a bit ridiculous to Rody and the others.

The menacing snow monster was dealt with by two arrows. Nata, holding a longbow, stood there quietly after confirming the death of the enemy. She seemed to be all alone.

Akasha didn't move forward after casting the divine spell. She looked at these primitively dressed guys with some curiosity in her heart.

Although they belong to humans, the barbarians are obviously taller than the people of the Karen Kingdom. They are generally strong, with thick limbs and bushy beards. They seem to fit the positioning of "powerful fighters". However, after careful observation, Akasha found that The opponent looks bluffing on the surface, but actually has no "momentum" at all.

Although each of these people held a weapon in their hands, there was fear and retreat in their eyes.

They quickly discovered Akasha and Nata, and then they also noticed Rody, Soderol and others above. The barbarian who looked like the leader took a few steps, as if he wanted to communicate with Rody and the others, but when the companion next to him said something, the six warriors took a few steps back with hesitant expressions, and then turned around to prepare leave.

Rody frowned... In his impression, the reason why "barbarians" are called "barbarians" is not only because of their primitive way of life, but also because of their "radical" way of dealing with problems.

If the barbarians had the character of running away when they saw strangers, they would have starved to death on the glacial plain long ago.

"What should we do now?"

Suo Deluo inserted the long sword back into the scabbard, and said.

"I'm going to check the body of the snow monster to see if there is anything abnormal. The right to use the team is in your hands, just cooperate with me at any time."

Rody took a few steps, and then found another barbarian team not far away. They met the six people who were about to leave, and then stopped and started talking. The equipment of the new team is also simple, but the guy who leads the team looks quite young.

Rody saw that the other party was pointing at him, but he was not interested in taking the initiative to pay attention to it. He squatted beside the snow monster and looked intently--

"It's not an elite monster, nor is it, why?"

He muttered a few words, and then heard an increasingly fierce quarrel not far away. When he looked up, Rody saw the scene where the young team leader punched the "deserter" to the ground.

Then the guy looked at Rody, tightened his fur shoulder pads,

He walked over with two one-handed stone axes on his back.

The young barbarian leader didn't have a beard. He was 2.1 meters tall because of his well-proportioned muscles, so he didn't feel like a "telegraph pole" at all. He looked confident and walked steadily. Roddy raised his eyebrows, and then he breathed a sigh of relief:

This is the barbarian in my impression!

"Hello, friends on the ice field."

Before the other party could speak, Rody greeted him first in the barbarian "Chatu language" - this pure greeting made the other party's expression obviously stunned, and he couldn't help saying: "You can speak our language?"

Then he reacted, touched his head and continued: "Thank you for saving my men. I heard what happened. They shouldn't have escaped, so I punished him."

"Chatu language" is relatively primitive, and the vocabulary is not precise, so the meaning expressed is relatively simple. Rody is not proficient in this language, but ordinary communication is enough. He looked at the guy with swollen cheeks and said, "Maybe he misunderstood us, that's okay."

Then he pointed to his chest: "My name is Rody. I come from the other side of the North Peak Mountain Range. This is my team."

"Erwin, Erwin of Barda."

The structure of the barbarians is similar to that of the orcs. Because of the harsh climate and sparsely populated areas, they scattered in groups on this land without fixed towns, and "Bada" is obviously the name of one of the tribes.

Rody once stayed in the "Bada" tribe, but he didn't have the slightest impression of the barbarian warrior in front of him. While he was curious, he chatted with the other party - because he understood the temper of the barbarians, Rody got acquainted with the other party after a few words, and proposed to Erwin the willingness to meet the barbarian leader.

"Come back with us? No problem, but I want to remind you that this road is very dangerous!"

Erwin pointed to the foot of the mountain: "It's not safe from here to Bada, you and your companions have to be careful!"

"And we have to go back as soon as possible, after the sun goes down, it will be very cold here!"

"no problem."

Rody rubbed his ears. Erwin's voice was too loud, as if he was about to quarrel, and the eardrums felt a little uncomfortable when he got close to it--but the northern races are basically like this, and Roddy has to adapt if he doesn't adapt.

After several conversations, Erwin began to lead the team forward. While Rody was walking side by side with Akasha and the others in the back, Suo Deluoer tugged at the tie of the cloak, and asked in a low voice: "They promised so happily?"

"Compared to the snow monsters, they are obviously willing to deal with us." Rody shrugged, and said with a curl of his lips: "Of course, the main reason is that they are too simple and don't know the truth about the dangers of the world."

This is not a simple joke. The barbarians are "nervous" when they say it is ugly. Once they trust someone, they will never consider the risk of "being cheated" at all...

Soderol was skeptical, looking at the tall warriors in front of him, thinking about something. Rody supported Akasha with one hand, recalling various information about the "Bada" tribe in his head.

The road down the mountain was not easy, and as the last light of the setting sun disappeared, the temperature that was not high around seemed to drop suddenly. Fortunately, the soldiers were well prepared. After wearing the thick and warm fur, the speed of the team was not affected much.

Erwin was walking ahead with two axes on his back, and his men looked back from time to time, curiously discussing the combat effectiveness of these strange soldiers—the two teams kept a distance of about 30 meters one after the other.

Occasionally, when he stopped to rest, Rody would send someone to bring some food and water to Erwin. The barbarian leader was not pretentious about this, and he accepted it neatly, and then distributed it to his soldiers.

This is not greed, because on the ice sheet, missing a meal can be fatal.

"its not right…"

After the team walked for an hour, Rody suddenly stopped and looked around: The "Bada" in his memory should be in this area, but why is it so empty?

He looked around suspiciously to confirm that his judgment was correct, but there was no trace of any human habitation here at all, and the buildings and villages in his impression seemed to have never appeared before.

This unexpected situation made Rody feel a little annoyed, and at this moment, the warning sound of the Ming Di arrow broke the quiet night instantly.

"Enemy attack!"

As soon as the words fell, Akasha, who was riding on the horse, immediately began to cast the "Holy Light Art", golden radiance suddenly bloomed, and on the snow field as bright as day, several running black figures immediately appeared behind the team.

Roddy turned his head and found three snow monsters approaching the team with strange screams in the distance.

Such a discovery didn't make Rody nervous, he just wondered: How could there be a snow monster here? Is this the hinterland of the "Bada" tribe? Don't they even extend their territory here?

When he was thinking about this question, the whole team had already stopped suddenly at the sound of Suo Deluoer's order. The soldiers picked up their shields, and "Ka Ka Ka" resisted back and forth, making preparations for the impact.

However, before the snow monster rushed to the front of the team, Nata, who was standing on the edge of the team, shot eight arrows one after another. When the light of the second "Holy Light Spell" gradually faded, the longbow she held was slowly lowered.

In the distance, three snow monsters all fell to the ground.

The lingering sound of howling and struggling echoed on the snow field, and Erwin, who had only confirmed the location of the snow monster, stopped and took a slow breath.

"keep going!"

Soderol glanced at the body of the snow monster indifferently, and waved his hand to give an order--the next moment, the cavalry team that was ready for the impact immediately gathered from the side, and the soldiers with shields put their weapons back on the side of the saddle...Formation change, front and rear Coordinated, this series of actions was quiet and orderly, and the eyes of the group of barbarians in front of them were straightened.

And the bodies of the three snow monsters lay in the distance, like discarded garbage.

Erwin swallowed, feeling the hand holding the handle of the ax feel a little cold - he is not afraid of the snow monsters, but it doesn't mean that he can solve the battle so easily when facing three snow monsters.

This sudden episode changed the atmosphere of the team slightly. Erwin's eyes flashed with some complicated emotions, but he looked back at his awed men, he sighed, and he picked up the ax again. On the snow, one foot deep and one shallow foot continued to march.

In this way, after the team continued to march for three hours, Rody finally saw a village located in the valley of the mountain.

It is said to be a "village", but it is actually dozens of low stone houses of different shapes--the stone houses of the barbarians are covered with seven or eight layers of animal skins and animal dung inside and outside to keep warm. able to maintain sufficient temperature.

"Roddy, is there a problem there?"

Akasha tugged at the scarf wrapped around her neck, turned her head and asked, "I think you didn't look well all the way."

"Something is not right, the plan may need to be changed."

Rody looked at all this with a frown, and muttered, "Why is there such a difference... I haven't heard of such a thing."

He looked at the map. If the territory of the "Bada" tribe had shrunk to such a degree, then the territory of the entire barbarian tribe would probably be 40% smaller than in memory!

This was something that Rody hadn't expected. It wasn't that he hadn't considered the impact of the time difference, but the barbarian territory in his memory hadn't changed since 590. How could there be such a difference with just one year's difference?

What happened in this area?
