Chapter 471 The King on the Bone Throne
Chapter 471 The King on the Bone Throne
Vito took the initiative to dismount, and the soldiers behind him followed suit, holding their horses and following behind.
It was just a hard experience for a group of cavalry wearing plate armor. They were as cool as the wind when charging on horseback, but after their feet landed, walking on the ground wearing dozens of pounds of heavy plate armor was simply torture.
The ground is not very smooth, so walking on it is a pain.
Moreover, the horse was still very unstable, so Vito used all his strength to pull the horse back.
If there is a possibility of peace talks between the two parties, try not to do anything that would cause misunderstanding.
Go deeper and deeper.
Vito's heart also slowly lifted up. This was completely different from the news he had obtained during his investigation. In fact, a few months ago, there were many explorers coming in and out of here, but after a certain day, suddenly began to There has been a large-scale disappearance of explorers, and according to the investigation, people who enter for the first and second time can usually escape, but if they insist on entering the underground for the third time, they will disappear.
At first he thought it was a curse, but based on the current situation, it was obvious that a certain powerful dark creature lord underground would not attack humans who entered the underground world rashly, but if they were stubborn people, they would attack them directly. .
In fact, he was overthinking it, because the manticore and the ogre were not that smart to distinguish who was entering the underground for the first time and who was entering the underground for the second time.
No matter how many times you encounter them, it will be your last.
Explorers who encounter centaurs with higher IQs will get a first, second, or even third chance, until they unfortunately encounter manticores and ogres.
The road ahead was still flat. After passing a few short slopes with limited arcs, a strong smell like wet earwax mixed with the dry smell of a wet bed came.
Only then did Vito discover that there were actually some small ogre cubs playing in the open space.
This is where the ogre tribe gathers.
After walking forward for a while, the pungent and unpleasant smell dissipated.
There is another camp ahead, but compared to the smelly and messy ogre tribe, this place is very clean and the air is much drier.
A group of female centaurs were handling the corpses on the ground with knives. They needed to make dried meat and store food. After all, the centaurs still raised many cubs, and the food supply could not be cut off.
Behind the large or small stones on the roadside, there were shy and frightened ponies quietly looking towards the team.
"They are a brand new civilization." Vito looked at the underground creatures who were clearly unequal in power but coexisting peacefully. At the same time, he was curious about the adult he was about to meet.
Precisely because he had seen using force to forcibly create a "harmonious" environment, he was even more in awe of "that lord" who could do the same thing. Not only that, Prince Hoffman was crippled just by being able to suppress human beings. Strength, but "that Lord" can make violent and evil monsters obey.
Isn't it certain that even if Prince Hoffman himself takes action, he may not be his opponent?
The road ahead remains barren.
"Ow~!"
Suddenly a sharp roar came from above his head, and Vito looked up to the sky. It was a black creature with a wingspan about the same size as a falcon. It had no feathers on its body, a long neck and tail, and four long legs.
There is a row of black scales on its body, so black that it can swallow up all the light. What is strange is that there are golden lines on its neck, as if it is wearing a gold necklace.
The opponent swooped down from high altitude.
The war horses fell to the ground one after another, and even the manticore, which was drooling and looking at its own war horse, and the ogre, which was drooling and looking at the manticore, were trembling at the same time.
"boom--!"
A ball of fire flew past everyone's heads and hit the open space in front of them, instantly burning into a fire that was as high as the city wall.
Vito's eyes widened.
Such a small little guy, the flames he spits out are so terrifyingly powerful!
The ferocious flames were like the red curtains at the opening of a theater troupe, automatically opening to both sides, revealing a figure sitting on a huge chair made entirely of skeletons.
It should be a chair. Countless white bones and skulls are stacked together, like a throne roughly forged from thousands of bone swords. You need to raise your head and turn your head left and right to see the full picture of the white bone chair.
Reacher plagiarized the idea of the Iron Throne without any psychological burden. He threw the unfinished bones of the centaurs and the bones snatched from the mouths of the ogres together and piled them into a hill.
The figure wearing strange armor covered with black thorns and wrapped in black mist was sitting on the chair looking at Vito.
And there was a black figure lying on his shoulder. After careful observation, Vito recognized it. The other person was the guy who just spit out a mouthful of flames that was higher than the city wall. At this time, he stared at the guy spitting fire seriously, and Vito's heart moved. Because that image was very similar to a recorded image he had seen while flipping through books.
Dragon!
Originally, it was impossible for Vito to immediately involve his thoughts on the dragon, because according to the remaining records, the dragon is a legendary creature with a long lifespan, and the older it gets, the stronger it becomes. It is impossible to become a person's pet.
But the terrifying flame just now, as well as the mysterious strong man who could not sense the breath, made Vito subconsciously associate it with adding a mysterious and powerful identity to the guy on his shoulder.
"Why didn't you ask me?" Vito was surprised, but he didn't dare to make any move. He could only look down at a certain piece of white bone with residual flesh and blood.
Li Qi, who was sitting on the chair, was also confused.
"Why don't you speak? Should I speak first?" Li Qi thought to himself. The fat black man in front of him was not ordinary. Li Qi was most worried that he would make too many mistakes because he would make too many mistakes and it would be difficult to kill him. He would have to negotiate the conditions before releasing him.
Therefore, it was more beneficial for Li Qi to let the other party speak first. He maintained his cold and mysterious image, looking at Vito motionlessly, as if he was deep in thought.
Both sides were silent.
The centaur lowered his head and wondered what he was thinking.
The ogre was still drooling, but the target had moved away from the manticore. Because those guys noticed the ogre's aggressive gaze, they raised their manticore tails.
The cavalrymen who had been worried about the manticore also breathed a sigh of relief. They finally didn't have to exert so much effort to pull their horses. Who knows how much effort they had just spent to pull the horses that they had been trying to break free from. These guys Really scared out of my wits.
Finally, Li Qi spoke. With the black dragon talent to help cover him up, he was not afraid of being recognized: "Why are you invading my territory?"
"Huh" Vito breathed a sigh of relief and finally spoke.
"Please forgive us for coming uninvited, sir." Vito lowered his head. He was not sure of the identity of the strong man in front of him, so he could only empty his mind and said: "We are from the continent of Lurea in the material plane."
"In the southern territory of Lurea continent, in an area called the Corso Mountains at Giant's Foot, the entrance to your world appeared. We accidentally entered this place and disturbed you..."
Vito never thought that the strong man in front of him was fake, that the terrifying group of monsters were real, that the palace-level strong men were real, that the giant dragon cub was probably real, and that the mysterious man that everyone feared and admired , it must be true!
"Hmm..." Li Qi nodded slightly, not knowing whether he was commenting on Vito's words.
"I'm not interested in the human world, so you don't need to worry." Li Qi recalled the state of the Brass Dragon. When he wasn't having a brain breakdown, the Brass Dragon always liked to use words such as "I" and "You" to show off. Li Qi took it over and used it directly, and the effect was unexpectedly good.
"Yes, of course." Vito didn't believe it. Could such a strong man really be willing to hide in the barren underground instead of on the ground?
Vito said: "Sir, our soldiers accidentally injured your men, and we are willing to compensate."
His idea is simple. Since you don't want anything, then if we force you to pay compensation, we can see whether you are interested in the human world.
The current giant's feet really can't hold it anymore. If there is a fire in the backyard, the prince will not be able to suppress it, especially if a strong man like the mysterious man in front of him rushes to the ground with a group of powerful dark creatures, hiss! The consequences could be disastrous!
It's best if you can stabilize yourself. If you can't stabilize, you have to escape, and then talk to the prince to discuss how to deal with it.
Li Qi looked at the injured centaurs, who lowered their heads in shame.
Except for the cave dwarfs, the centaurs have become the weakest team under Li Qi.
"Since you injured the centaurs, let the centaurs talk to you." Li Qi said nonchalantly: "Baker, let me leave the rest to you."
"Yes, sir!" Baker lowered his head.
Li Qi disappeared without a trace, leaving only the raging curtain of fire and the lonely Bone Throne. He seemed to be really not interested in this matter at all.
