No!
We poor people who lost our own clan reorganized the Bloodclaw clan. We have agreed to live and live better..
we need them!
More tribesmen who are better at hunting are like hunters who need ferocious hyenas..”
It was not yet skilled at drawing cakes for its people, it said:
“If each of us has three barbarians under his command, then we can stick together and not be bullied by other tribesmen. If each of us has five barbarians under his command, then we can make King Kenbot look at him differently..
We are all strong warriors who have survived three games in the arena. This is our advantage. We must strengthen this advantage if we want to be recognized..”
Nash next to him immediately made a strange cry.
It thinks what Hogg said is fine..
But it really doesn’t want to stay here anymore. It has been killing ghouls here for the past seven days to replace its compatriots. The disgusting rotten meat has almost made it lose interest in eating meat. If it continues to stay here, it will probably really want to. crazy.
But seven days have already allowed Nash to see how different Hogg is..
This is not an ordinary gnoll, it is more intelligent than ordinary gnolls. Perhaps Hogg has been bragging that its bloodline comes from the Mossy Valley Holy Land. It may not be a joke..
It really comes from the Dark Mountains, from the place where the god-like and powerful Bone-Gripping King was born..
This invisibly adds a bit of "mysterious legitimacy" to Hogg in the eyes of the Jackals. In their rough and wild world view, places like Transia are just the edges of the world, and only the Dark Mountains are the "world." center”!
As for the Mossy Valley, it must be the holy land at the center of the world..
“They're coming, I hear the sound.”
The hunter "Old Blind" in the Bloodclaw clan howled. The gnoll hunter, who was blind in one eye, grabbed the vampire hunting crossbow in his hand and aimed forward. The other gnolls also grabbed their flail weapons..
Under their vigilant gaze, a dozen gnoll gladiators were jumping down from the fault on the second floor of the sewer to the third floor..
“madness! Go and stop them! This noise will attract ghouls!”
Nash shouted.
Immediately, two barbarians rushed over to rescue their poor compatriots. They had obviously suffered in the arena, and every one of them had the smell of blood..
But the good news is that when these guys escaped, they also "looted" the gladiators' weapons arsenal, so that they also had leather armor and weapons..
We even brought some dried meat to use as dry food on the road..
“Very good, very good!”
Hogg stood up and shook his short tail.
It stepped forward under the protection of a group of elite kobolds and looked at the miserable gnoll gladiators in front of it. There were also a few aggrieved kobolds who had their candles snatched away by the little players..
The "wealthy" kobolds under Hogg immediately stepped forward and distributed the smallest and thinnest candles they owned to their compatriots. After all, a kobold without a candle of his own was really pitiful..
“The fact that you are here means that you are all determined to escape from the vampire city. I will take you underground to escape, and we will return to the wilderness that belongs to us..”
Hogg shouted:
“But I will only take my people away! If you want to leave, you have to join us and join the Bloodclaw clan.!”
“I don't like this name.”
An elite barbarian soldier shrugged his arms and said dissatisfiedly.:
“This seems to be a name only a vampire would give! i hate vampires.”
“This is about vampires, my people.”
Hogg snorted and pointed to the top of his head.:
“Don't forget where we escaped from. The vampires humiliated us and we must repay a hundredfold! Calling this name reminds us not to forget the great shortcomings of vampires!”
“Okay, then I'll join, my clan is gone anyway.”
The barbarian soldier sighed and said:
“I saw with my own eyes that my chief was decapitated by a vampire's thugs. Its head is now on display in the Blood Rat Gang's warehouse. It is said that they will use the head to make some magic weapons..”
“So do we.”
The other gladiators were so frightened that they wanted to run away quickly, but they did not object to Hogg asking them to join the clan..
Soon, Hogg's clan expanded to more than 30 people.
Apart from him, they are all the absolute elites who have won three times in the gladiatorial arena, plus ten elite kobolds. Although the number is small, the quality is super strong..
“Walk! get out of here.”
Hogg waved his hand and led his tribe to run quickly along the river channel of the three-layer underground cave to the deepest part. He took the lead and was the first to jump into the rapid water below and held his breath while searching for the river that was confirmed to exist. 's underground passage.
it found it quickly.
After all, it was Mrs. Adele who took the map and repeatedly described its location..
The vampires also "thoughtfully" locked up a skeleton and deliberately hung it in a strange way as a mark under the entrance to the passage..
The embarrassed jackals kept pouring into it, driven by the water flow, and moved forward along the dark, damp, moss-covered underground waterway..
They didn't dare to stay, so they could only speed up their pace.
Finally, after dozens of minutes of sprinting, we reached the final exit. Climbing up the steep cave, we saw the quiet wilderness under the night and the quiet Cadman River flowing through the earth..
“Ha, we escaped!”
Nash shouted excitedly.
It waved its claws, revealing the brand of gladiator slave on its shoulder. Other gnolls and kobolds had similar marks of shame..
Hogg also has.
But it was branded by Lady Dorothy herself. It must have this mark to lead these fierce gladiators..
“Good news, I've been here before.”
Hogg pretended to climb up and look around as if to distinguish the terrain, and then he said to his tribesmen:
“The Under Armor Hills are right across the river. You can find our tribe after crossing the river. Let's go! We'll get there before dawn”
“Hogg! There is someone in front!”
The old blind man soon discovered something moving in the abandoned village near the river bank. He grabbed the hunting crossbow and shouted::
“They seem to be our people, a migrating clan. Would you like to go and have a look??”
“Of course I have to go there.”
Hogg rolled his eyes and ordered::
“be ready for battle.”
“Um?”
The other gnolls looked at their chief in surprise, and Hogg explained:
“Once the fact that we have been slaves is known, it will be regarded as a joke by the tribe. We have to hide this secret, and look at how embarrassed we are now! Do you think if we go there, those tribesmen will let us beggars go??
The law of survival of the weak is the law of survival of the jackals!
Either we annex them and give each of us barbarians and slaves, or they annex us and turn us into their slaves..
You choose!”
“There must be females in that clan. A gnoll without a mate would be laughed at.”
Nash bared his teeth in the darkness and whispered something. The other jackals howled immediately, their eyes shining like a group of real wolf cubs..
“Hey, let's go, give each person two!”
Hogg waved his hand.
The gnoll gladiators immediately followed it forward.
“All the candles from the kobold slaves over there are yours.!”
It shouted again to the kobold elites in its clan, and the kobolds also became restless..
Candle!
Ah, candles, beautiful candles
The light in the darkness is something that fascinates people. For it, the kobolds will give everything, just like the hungry and thirsty jackals now..
