Half-elf Ranger

Chapter 209: Summoning Ally of Nature

In the misty morning, the breeze blows the shadows of the trees, and the morning light passes through the dense branches and leaves, casting light and shadows swaying all over the ground.

Thorne walked among the dense jungle, feeling the mist around him, as well as the cheerful birdsong in the forest.

He suddenly stopped, looked up at the tall and straight giant trees dominated by firs and towering shadows, and jumped, his figure disappeared into the depths of the jungle like a leaf flying in the autumn wind.

After a while, he came to a dirt road leading to Twin Towers Town.

The road in front of you is five or six meters wide, with dense bushes growing on both sides. It seems that it has rained in the past few days, making the already potholed road look muddy. The yellow dim light and the deep axle prints criss-crossed each other in a cluttered manner.

"These traces should be left by the Hobgoblin Hulk, and the ox carts that transported the goods were loaded with felled logs." Thorne carefully observed the clear marks left on the ground, the footprints of the boots and a handful of Sawdust, I thought to myself.

Immediately afterwards, he leaned his entire body against a big tree beside him, his eyes hidden in the hood cut through the heavy mist, looked into the deepest part where the axle marks disappeared, and fell into deep thought.

After leaving the Merikai Temple and dealing with the mischievous tree spirit girls outside the temple, he kept walking towards the town of Twin Towers, east of the Serenity Forest.

Traveling fast all the way, the farther away from the location of the Merikai Temple, he found that the more trees in the forest were cut down by the goblins.

However, by observing the number of big trees cut down at each location, he learned that these big trees were not cleaned up in large areas, but after an appropriate amount of felling, they quickly changed positions every time they passed, this strange behavior , let him guess some obscure information.

In other words, the reason why the Hulk Hobgoblin from the Black Pearl Forest was able to easily settle in the Serene Forest was entirely because of the secret instigation of the Druid Order in the Emerald Garden.

Obviously, the leader of the hobgoblins also understands this truth, so they are not like the evil humanoid tribes such as gnolls, lizardmen or ogres, who wantonly cut down the big trees in the forest, causing large-scale damage to the Serene Forest. .

The Hulk Hobgoblin is in the forest, and the number of fellings is well controlled in every location of the wood, so that it does not make people know that the entire forest has suffered serious damage at a glance.

From this, it can be judged that the leader of the Hulk Hobgoblin is likely to have secretly reached some agreement with the Druid Order in the Emerald Garden.

As for the content of the agreement, it is nothing more than: You want to settle in the Forest of Tranquility, it doesn't matter they can agree, but the degree of damage to the forest must not exceed the bottom line that the Druids can endure.

That's why the Hulk Hobgoblins are running around in this vast Forest of Tranquility, rather than picking a spot and clearing all the trees once and for all, leaving them bare.

Druid and Hobgoblin reached this kind of agreement, is it good or bad for the town of Falls?

If you want to consider it from a long-term perspective, it is definitely not good for Pushang Town, because the hobgoblins entrenched in the quiet forest are very close to Pushang Town. When they really gain a firm foothold and their power grows, they will always be there at any time. May threaten the safety of the town.

With the ability to reach the town with a waterfall, it is impossible to completely resist it. After all, this is a group of regular hobgoblin troops who have attacked Winter City. It is only a matter of time before the development returns to its original heyday.

Moreover, what really worries Thorne is that the southern edge of Silent Forest is adjacent to the endless bottomless swamp. If these hobgoblins allied with the lizardmen, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, considering the current situation of Pushang Town, their agreement is more beneficial to Pushang Town at this time.

If the Druid Order of the Emerald Garden insists on expelling the Heruk Hobgoblins from the Serenity Forest, these Hobgoblins who have traveled long distances from the Black Pearl Forest through the Shadowmoon Inner Sea will have nowhere to go. Next, the location of the town of Falls would certainly be the best choice for establishing a settlement.

Hobgoblins who have no way out will attack Casshang Town frantically until they turn into ruins and become their own territory.

Half a year ago, the town of Waterfall was invaded by hobgoblins because these hobgoblins who tried to take root in the Serenity Forest were expelled by the Druid Order, which led to the tragedy of the town of Waterfall.

It can be seen from this that there must be someone in the Druid Order in the Emerald Garden who noticed the serious consequences of expelling the hobgoblins, so this was the most sensible thing for the residents of Waterfall Town. choose.

That is to say, Waterfall Town once almost caused a tragic tragedy in the thoughts of others.

However, the Hobgoblins entrenched in the Forest of Tranquility are always the biggest threat. They are like a sharp spike that stabbed into the key point of Waterfall Town. If they are not removed, they may face the fall. possible.

Although Waterfall Town has let go and is ready to form an alliance with Horn Town to deal with the hobgoblins together, Thorne does not think that the combined strength has the capital to fight against them.

After all, Hobgoblins are no better than gnolls and ogres, which are almost primitive tribes. They are a group of militarily managed armies. Even regular armies in civilized settlements are not fully sure that they can resist the pace of Hobgoblins.

"Although the hobgoblins have no plans to invade Waterfall Town for the time being, when the snow and ice melt in the spring of next year, these ambitious guys will definitely show their sharp fangs." Thorne thought to himself.

Then he looked up into the depths of the road, with an expression like he was waiting for something to come.

"Cuckoo!"

After a while, a grey owl with fluttering wings came flying from the depths of the bushes and landed on Thorne's shoulders.

Thorne stroked the owl's feathers, and used a magical technique "Animal Conversation" to look at its two large, agile eyes for a moment, then waved his hand lightly. in the foggy air.

The owl that appeared just now was exactly the projection he summoned using one of the Ranger's magical skills, the "First-Class Natural Ally Summoning".

This kind of magic of summoning natural allies is similar to the conjuration spells of wizards. They all use the power of incantations to communicate and use the power of incantations to launch spell pointers and space beacons to a certain plane.

When finding a suitable summoning target, sign an oath with it by threatening or lure, so as to project and summon it to the designated location on the main material plane.

Since Thorne obtained these magic spells yesterday, he took a night to sign an oath with many small animals in the endless wilderness of the Ten Thousand Beast Garden to serve him.

The Ten Thousand Beast Garden, also known as the Beast Township, is an uncivilized natural plane, which embodies the wildness and beauty of nature, and also represents all animals.

In the "First-Class Natural Ally Summoning Technique", wolves, dire rats, falcons, small poisonous snakes, owls, and dolphins and octopuses in the deep sea were all signed by him one by one, allowing him to use divine magic to summon them to the Lord at any time. Material plane.

Although the attack power of these small animals is not very strong, it is a good choice as a reconnaissance partner.

For example, in a dense and dark forest, an owl with the characteristics of "dark vision" and "acute senses" is the best choice.

If you are in the endless wilderness, the falcon with the "sharp vision" feature is more suitable.

Wolves with a keen sense of smell, rats and burrowing snakes who are good at traversing the sewers, and even octopuses and dolphins in the deep sea, no matter what the harsh environment, he can use the "natural ally summoning" to find suitable reconnaissance partners.

Moreover, in the "Summoning of Natural Allies" in the second ring, he also has the ability to summon a hippogriff with flying ability, which allows him to directly ride a hippocampus across the sky when encountering difficult terrain.

Thorne stood in place, and after recalling the unexpected discovery that the owl brought him, he immediately took off the compound longbow behind him and walked quickly towards the road ahead.
