Chapter 312 Ogre Mountains
"This is the place to hunt every day, and you can only walk here with you. If you continue walking in, you may be dragging you down."
Xiao Yu and Zhao Changping spent five hours to stop on a large barren mountain. Although the mountains were not high, they occupied a huge area, and huge stones were everywhere. A large number of withered wild grasses more than one person tall grew in the cracks of the rocks.
After careful observation, you will find that there are many huge stone caves in the barren stone mountain, and there is a huge beast wandering in the nearby piles of rocks. This monster is nearly two meters tall and five or six meters long. It has no fur on its body. The skin texture is similar to the surrounding rocks. The two copper bells' big eyes reveal a fierce light. It looks like a lion, with a pair of sharp stone horns on its head, and a huge scorpion tail that is about the same length as its body behind it, searching for prey.
Xiao Yu stood on a low mountain nearby and saw the monster from afar. He shouted in surprise: "Hey, strange, isn't this a lion and scorpion beast?"
Zhao Changping was surprised, "It's just a lion and scorpion beast. The city lord knows this kind of monster?"
Xiao Yu obviously knew the information about the lion and scorpion beast, and said happily: "Of course I know. The lion and scorpion beast is a relatively famous elite monster. There are a large number of lion and scorpion beasts here, so there are probably many lion and scorpion beasts living!"
"Yes, there are many lions and scorpions here, and it is a gathering area for elite monsters. Lions and scorpions are monsters in the late stage of the third level. They have strong physical attack capabilities and can also use soil and toxin attacks. Their defense and speed are also not weak, but their brains are not very smart. Just wait in a fixed position. If you find that the single lions and scorpions go to forage alone, I will lie on the necessary path to launch an attack, and the success rate can reach more than 70%. If you are lucky, you can kill nearly ten lions and scorpions in a day."
No wonder Zhao Changping's strength has improved so quickly, and he turned out to be in such a place.
Xiao Yu: "Their value is not here. The nest of lions and scorpions is, in a sense, a treasure!"
Zhao Changping didn't understand and immediately retorted: "Treasure? But the city lord, although the lion and scorpion beast is an elite monster, the explosion rate is quite low. He can't produce two items in a day, and finally one is worthless. They like to live in barren and dry mountains, without any precious plants or ores nearby, and they cannot bring any economic benefits at all."
Xiao Yu said: "You don't know that the value of the lion scorpion beast lies in itself, because the lion scorpion beast is a monster that can contract monsters. The eggs of the lion scorpion beast can become a contract monster, that is, a demon pet. At present, most people on the continent do not have contract monsters, but we occupy a nest that produces contract beasts!"
Zhao Changping was shocked, "Can these monsters become contract beasts?"
Most creatures cannot establish contracts with human mental power, and there are quite a few species of creatures that can become contract beasts, but they are not popularized for various reasons. For example, the griffin I have seen is actually a kind of creature that can become contract monsters, but the griffin's nest is often in steep cliffs several thousand meters high. The number of eggs is small and the hatching period is fast, so it is rarely used as contract monsters.
Lion scorpion is different from griffins. Lion scorpion beasts lay eggs twice to three times a year. The incubation period of eggs is one year. They naturally grow for two months and have combat ability and fertility in one year. Therefore, lion scorpion is a contract beast with a large number, egg laying, and natural hatching time, and can be popularized.
In the previous life, lion scorpions were widely used in middle and upper class people. After all, they were elite monsters, with very strong strength, and the growth potential of lion scorpions beasts was quite high. Xiao Yu even heard that a man bought an ordinary lion scorpion egg for hundreds of high-level gems, and accidentally hatched a mutant lion scorpion. Later, he cultivated his strength to the fifth level, and his combat power was only similar to that of the lords of the same level!
It can be seen that the lion scorpion is a good contractual monster.
There are two forms of contract beasts, hatching from eggs, or falling out by killing monsters, such as Xiao Yu's Slime and Jiang Xiaowen's Phantom Demon.
The contract beasts hatched by eggs have different qualities, both good and beautiful, both strong and weak. The latter is transformed from the mother's soul and life essence, which can perfectly inherit all the advantages of the mother and eliminate all shortcomings. It cannot be said that the contract beasts hatch must be bad. Some eggs can hatch mutated contract beasts. The potential of this contract beast is infinite, but it is extremely rare, almost none of them, which is almost the same as the probability of winning the lottery jackpot.
The guy who hatched the mutant lion scorpion beast in his previous life was a lucky guy. He was originally in poor and poor, but he entered the ranks of first-class masters because of a powerful mutant contract beast.
Zhao Changping was energetic and said: "There are at least a hundred lion and scorpion beast nests here. If you search them all, how many eggs will be there! I am afraid I can't continue to kill monsters here. If I kill the lion and scorpion that can lay eggs, it would not be cost-effective."
"Don't worry about this. The lion scorpion has a strong ability to reproduce. When you kill one lion scorpion hole and another lion scorpion hole, a new lion scorpion will immediately move into the previous lion scorpion hole. As long as you grasp the degree, there will be no problem."
Zhao Changping asked: "How valuable is a contracted monster?"
"The specific value is hard to estimate, but it is not worse than a piece of blue equipment."
"I don't understand why the value of the contracted monster is so high? Can't the breeding farms also cultivate elite monsters of second-level and third-level? Cities with recruitment systems consume similar soul gems and souls, and can also directly recruit third-level monsters, and they also avoid slowly cultivating from level zero. This is also a considerable fee."
Xiao Yu shook his head and replied, "I'll show you something."
The demon butcher was released directly from the ring, with huge wings covering the sun, and his hill-like body blocking the sunshine. His terrible momentum scared Zhao Changping and took several steps back.
"This is……"
"It's my slime, and now it has a name: Butcher."
Zhao Changping could feel the strength of the butcher, and he had definitely surpassed himself far. He couldn't help but change his face: "How did it become like this!"
Xiao Yu said calmly: "This is the difference between contracted monsters. Their strength can be increased, and their potential is sometimes not worse than that of humans. A recruited third-level monster will always be third-level. In addition, the contracted monster is connected to the master's mental power and tied together at the spiritual level. It will not only be easier to cooperate, but will never betray it."
Zhao Changping sighed: "It seems that I am also looking for a battle pet."
"This is a good place, maybe you can find a suitable one!" Xiao Yu raised his hand gently and said, "I will come here to reconnaise myself if I have the chance, but due to time, I can't stay here for a long time today, so let's split up."
"Okay, then say goodbye."
Xiao Yu bid farewell to Zhao Changping and jumped into the depths of the forest.
…………
One day later, it was not long before dawn, somewhere in the central area of the Ogre Mountains.
The sky is like an inverted ocean. Looking around, the white waves flooded and swallowed the high peaks, hitting the mountain walls, surging and sinking into the ridges. The forests are always covered by a thin layer of white mist, and strange flowers and plants can be seen everywhere, and the air is slightly toxic, making ordinary animals unable to survive here.
Xiao Yu and the copper hammer were walking on the rugged mountain road. The butcher was too big. In order not to be too conspicuous, Xiao Yu made him transform into the size of an ordinary person. There were green pieces of lichens under his feet, and the flow of the stones in the gap was as thick as a thumb, and the environment was relatively humid.
Xiao Yu looked up and saw a long ridge in the distance through the thin shallow fog, like a dragon crawling on the ground. "This forest is so complicated. How long will it take to get to the mine?"
"We need to bypass several tribal territories, which may take some time, but we can get to the mine before tonight." Copper Hammer stood beside Xiao Yu, holding a huge war hammer in his hand, covered with a layer of red and white objects. Within half an hour, the dwarf had used it to smash the heads of the five monsters. "Patient needs to be in the jungle, otherwise it will cause big trouble."
The mountain range covers hundreds or thousands of miles, and there are wise races such as ogres, dwarves, lizard men, cavemen, etc., of course, the power of ogres is the most powerful. There are at least four or five million ogres living in this area, but ogres live in the form of tribes and have strict regional divisions between each other. It is strictly forbidden to cross the boundary during hunting activities, otherwise a war between two ogre tribes will break out.
Ogres have too much demand for survival resources. After all, an ogre in a city is four meters tall and weighs nearly one ton. They can eat two cows every day. If all ogres gather together, the nearby prey will definitely be wiped out, and creatures in the distance will not dare to get close. As a result, a large number of ogres will starve to death. For this reason, the size of an ogre tribe will not exceed 20,000 people, and they are very far apart from each other. Ogres from different tribes will hardly communicate.
Therefore, although there are many ogres, they are loosely distributed. As long as you are careful not to enter the core area of the ogre tribe, there will be no danger.
"roar--"
A dull roar like thunder came from the front.
The bronze hammer's expression changed: "Oh, damn there is an ogre!"
"It seems that there are many, I don't know what level it is. You are not good at hiding your breath, so you can hide in my space ring first."
Xiao Yu used the space ring to install the copper hammer and the butcher. Then he shook his body and appeared silently on a big tree dozens of meters away. His eyes turned silver and white, and he opened his void and floated between the branches like a non-existent ghost. Several branches and leaves passed through his body, and he didn't care.
Not long after, a group of ogres came out of the woods.
There are about sixty or seventy ogres, and they are obviously just finished hunting and full of loads. Some of the trophys are monsters, and some are intelligent creatures. Of course, there is no difference between the two in the eyes of ogres.
Xiao Yu discovered that among the ogre prisoners, there were twenty or thirty dwarves, more than a hundred petite figures, white skin, fox ears, and long fox tail. He was a very beautiful and cute girl. This was a rare creature called the Fox Humans.
The fox human race is a race that is rich in beauties, just like the mermaids and elves.
