Tang Shidao was deeply moved as he watched the battle for the first time.
The smell of fresh blood stung his nose, the broken limbs stung his eyes, steel and flames, arrows and poison, everything that was happening in front of him was so unbelievable. As a person who lived in modern society, he had seen ancient battlefields and learned from the Interstellar Era, but the war in front of him was still beyond his imagination. Even compared to a game, the bravery of these soldiers was still a lot higher.
They weren't just fearless like the soldiers in online games, they felt like two groups of crazy zombies charging at each other, almost indescribable.
This was beyond the level of bravery.
Barely, it could only be described as "bloodthirsty fanaticism."
Tang Shidao found that other than prioritizing protecting the heroes, the beast soldiers were often obsessed with charging and killing the enemies, as if they weren't terrifying enemies, but treasure chests. Seeing the beast soldiers whose necks had been bitten through still pulling out their daggers to stab the evil monsters, Tang Shidao couldn't help but feel a chill. This kind of action was beyond the scope of wild beasts, perhaps only ants who didn't care about their own safety could compare.
It was just a defensive battle, a battle that almost crushed the enemy, but there were still many beast soldiers casualties when the count was over.
The invading evil monsters also didn't care about their lives.
They risked their lives just to hurt people.
In this battle, several "hero" Mages were also injured. They were attacked the most, and at the same time, they were as brave as wild beasts, not like normal Mages at all.
After the battle.
Seeing the soldiers desperately recovering the corpses, Tang Shidao asked the Poison Master Wolf if he needed help.
The Poison Master Wolf smiled.
He invited Tang Shidao to continue on his way, slowly walking down the city wall. "Don't worry, the Mages are fine, and those dead soldiers won't really die. This is just the first stop in the forbidden land, the first war fortress. The other side of the steel passage we just walked through is connected to a void area where spells can be cast. As long as the corpses and injured are sent back, the treatment will be finished soon. "
Tang Shidao understood.
Looking back, a few thousand meters behind them was a place where spells could be cast, so it would be fine if they were sent back in time.
The Poison Master Wolf added, "In the forbidden land, the closer to the normal void, the safer it is, and the deeper into the forbidden land, the more dangerous it is. This is just the edge, if we calculate the mortality rate, there's only a 1% chance of dying here. If you go deeper, the number will become 5% or 10%. "
Tang Shidao looked at the corpses of the beast soldiers and said, "They knew they wouldn't die, so they fought so hard to get the credit?"
Poison Master Wolf nodded. "That's right. The only desire of a beast soldier is military merit. They don't care about their own lives. Even in more dangerous places, the beast soldiers would still risk their lives. Don't think that they have too high of a goal. For example, many of the Rat Men are only after food. "
Tang Shidao stopped talking.
Every race had their own needs, and every era had its own needs.
For example.
Prince Zhou's Great Zhou Country, if they sent a group of soldiers to exchange for the Life Prolonging Medicine, the Great Zhou Country's emperor and nobles would send the soldiers overnight. Even if it was a modern country on Earth Emperor Planet, if they could send their soldiers in a spaceship or something, they would still send their soldiers without any moral integrity.
If the Rat Orcs' civilization was very advanced and they did not lack food, they would naturally not risk their lives for food.
On the contrary.
If they were just primitive tribes, it would be normal to exchange warriors for food. Even in a civilized society like the Earth Emperor Planet, there were countries that went into turmoil due to insufficient food.
On foot.
Very quickly.
Tang Shidao and Poison Master Wolf entered the inner city under the escort of the beast soldiers.
The inner city was also made of steel. All the buildings were designed based on the main attribute of 'sturdiness', there were no beautiful or beautiful options. Most of the buildings were semicircular, like a large iron dome placed on the ground. The rest were all tall towers and arrow towers.
"The arrow towers are used to deal with enemies flying from the sky. There is no place to stroll around here, each small fort is a single combat area. "
"Is there an underground passage?" Tang Shidao felt the ground shaking.
"That's right. The goods are transported through the underground steel passage, transporting them on the surface is equal to giving them to the enemy. Once the enemy invades, everyone will have to hide in the fort. Those who stay outside won't even save you. All the doors close at a fixed time, if you're slow for even a second, they won't wait for you. "Poison Master Wolf said while reminding him.
Tang Shidao felt the ground shaking becoming stronger and stronger as he pointed.
Poison Master Wolf nodded, "That's right, there are also battles underground. There are all kinds of creatures in the void, it isn't strange for them to be good at drilling. Don't worry, these metals are all made by refiners, there's absolutely no problem with their sturdiness. Generally, only huge beasts can twist it with brute force. Small monsters can't bite through it, and their poison can't corrode it. The entire war fortress is a whole, just connected with the steel passages. "
A safe fortress.
Enough supplies.
A magical resurrection.
There really wasn't any danger at the edge, no wonder the beast soldiers were so desperate to snatch battle merits.
"Welcome, Your Excellency Poison Master, Your Excellency Owl." When they arrived at the heroes' reporting area, the receptionist was a giant. It was about ten meters tall, covered in heavy armor, and had a giant sword at hand, as if ready to fight at any time.
"We need to adapt for a while before heading to the next war fortress. Your Excellency City Lord, sorry to bother you." Poison Master Wolf was the navigator, so he naturally came forward to respond.
"You're not a newcomer?" The Giant City Lord was slightly delighted.
"I've been to a forbidden land once before." Poison Master Wolf didn't hide it.
"Good, that's great. Since you're a veteran hero, I won't say much. Go and get your equipment. I'll record that you're a veteran hero in the recommendation so that you can find comrades more easily. "The Giant City Lord didn't write it himself.
While it was talking, a group of Rat Men were writing at a high speed, recording the conversation and information.
"Thank you for your concern, City Lord. I can go to the Hero Tavern and find people myself. I'm an alchemist. I can find comrades just by calling out, "Poison Master Wolf said confidently.
Hearing this, Tang Shidao couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
This wasn't boasting.
Poison Master Wolf was confident. It was a kind of confidence that declared that he was an alchemist and had a lot of people chasing after him.
In the Mage Network.
Alchemists were generally weak in combat power. They were only needed as back-up talents in large team missions. Who would have thought that in the Land of Forbidden Magic, just the word 'Alchemist' would make everyone's eyes light up. From this, it could be seen that alchemists were indeed very important here.
"Great, so you're an alchemist. Gray Rat, add a passage mark to their soldier cards. They can come to the City Lord's Mansion to find me at any time. "The Giant City Lord gestured.
The leader of the Rat Men immediately did as he was told.
"Thank you, City Lord." Poison Master Wolf was not happy to be taken care of by his leader. It was as if this was a very normal treatment.
At the same time, Poison Master Wolf handed over the small dragon's soldier card.
The Giant City Lord naturally nodded.
In a forbidden land, it was not common for a giant dragon to take the initiative to follow a hero, but it was not strange that the other party was an alchemist.
They went through the formalities.
The two of them went to the hero's equipment warehouse. The leader of the Rat Men knew that they were alchemists, so he deliberately opened the secret treasure vault. "My Lords, these are the City Lord's treasured armor and equipment. The inner armor made of the fire spring lizard's skin is heat-resistant and warm. It's most suitable for dealing with the excessive number of fire bees around. The outer armor is made of dark luo steel. It's tough, light, and black. It's also suitable for night operations. "
Tang Shidao took it. As expected, it wasn't very heavy.
In terms of design, this kind of armor was very suitable for combat. It didn't feel cumbersome. It was more like a battle suit from the interstellar era.
"There are a lot of fire bees around?"
"Yes, my Lord. Therefore, we have to produce some light armor. It's too cumbersome and not suitable for fast movements. In terms of auxiliary weapons, I suggest that you don't bring strong crossbows because the flame liquid of the little fire bees is very harmful to small machinery. If you go out, light shields and spears are more suitable. There are many giant toads outside. Light shields and spears are easier to deal with, "the Rat Men suggested.
"Give us a set." Poison Master Wolf naturally obeyed. The beast soldiers and beast workers didn't dare to lie to heroes.
"Yes." The Rat Men gave him light shields and a bag of short spears.
After receiving the equipment.
Poison Master Wolf asked for the way to the hero tavern and took Tang Shidao to find his comrades.
Tang Shidao was a little puzzled. Why didn't the equipment cost money?
Poison Master Wolf only smiled.
It explained that the war fortresses of the forbidden land didn't lack resources. The closer to the edge, the more resources there were. Because the resources of the Mage Net were calculated according to the plane world, it was impossible to lack gold and iron ore. If it wasn't for the fact that it was too difficult to transport the inner war fortresses, the mages of the Mage Net could simply use strong crossbows and sharp arrows to flatten them.
In order to prevent the beast soldiers from not working hard, the war fortresses set up restrictions on military merits to exchange for better equipment.
Heroes.
They could take whatever they wanted. There was an unlimited supply.
Tang Shidao knew that this wasn't a war where all the mages of the Mage Net participated in, only a portion of them. However, with the power of their plane world, resources really weren't a problem. For example, it was too easy for an interstellar civilization like the Blood Earl to supply gold and iron ore. It was easy for him not to be an emperor, let alone a big shot like the Astral Queen.
Thinking of the Astral Queen, Tang Shidao recalled the words of Poison Master Wolf.
He once said that no one who heard of it could pass the epic training ground … Tang Shidao didn't believe this sentence!
He didn't know about the Astral Queen before meeting her. Speaking of Dean Bai Xiang, Tang Shidao didn't believe that he couldn't pass. If Dean Bai Xiang didn't pass, it must be because he didn't do it on purpose. In the Hunter College, those epic professors were too far away from Dean Bai Xiang. It felt like it wasn't difficult for one to beat a group of them.
It was also possible that after passing the epic training ground, something special would happen, so Dean Bai Xiang didn't do it for the time being.
Without thinking too much.
Soon.
They arrived at the hero tavern.
This wasn't a special place. It was just a group of fiercer or more intelligent warriors. Seeing someone walk in, the mages inside didn't react. In this world where everyone wore masks, drinking and eating meat also left half of the mask, who cared who you were.
People who weren't heroes didn't have the guts to come in.
"A newbie or an old bird?" The person in charge of the hero tavern was also a mage, a dragonoid, a real mage in the net.
Seeing the unfamiliar mask, he threw two bottles of wine.
Tang Shidao was about to reach out and catch them, but Poison Master Wolf blocked him.
The two bottles of "wine" fell to the ground.
A sour smell of alcohol rose from the ground. Everyone in the tavern laughed.
"A newbie and an old bird." The dragonoid boss also chuckled.
Tang Shidao didn't mind.
Poison Master Wolf explained, "This is a warning for newbies. It means: don't trust anyone except your teammates, including those who buy you drinks."
Tang Shidao only nodded slightly.
He could also see that the dragonoid boss didn't want to harm him. If he really wanted to drink, he would definitely stop him.
This kind of lesson was just to keep newbies vigilant.
Don't be careless just because you're in a safe environment.
The dragonoid boss handed out two more glasses and took out a bottle of wine. Poison Master Wolf said first, "Don't open it, I'll do it myself. I don't want any bugs to get in."
The dragonoid boss gave him a thumbs-up, indicating that he was completely qualified. "What do you want?"
Poison Master Wolf poured a glass, drank it, and felt that he was fine, then poured another two glasses.
He handed one glass to Tang Shidao.
He raised the glass to everyone in the tavern, then said, "We're looking for comrades. We're friends from the Mage Net and came here to train together. "
"Hahahaha …" Everyone in the tavern roared with laughter.
"You're in the wrong place. After a few more years of training, if this little guy isn't dead, someone will probably consider him. "The dragonoid boss spread his hands, indicating that no one here wanted to team up with a newbie.
Poison Master Wolf slowly finished drinking.
He put down the glass.
He said softly, "I'm an alchemist."
