Relying on this thing and occasionally hunting some wild animals to supplement their supplies, the group persisted for another six days.
On the sixteenth day after entering the mountain, the food was finally exhausted, and even the magical seeds that the elves carried that could produce fruits were all used up.
However, this mountain has finally turned over!
On the seventeenth day, the mountain road ahead was already going all the way down. Gradually, everyone soon crossed the snow line. The surrounding scenery was no longer pure white, and some sparse plants and woods began to appear around it. Occasionally,
You can see small patches of blue sheep living here.
Upon seeing the prey, the wolf clan immediately cheered and dispatched several teams of wolf riders to hunt everywhere. In one day, they captured hundreds of blue sheep, as well as several grouse, mountain deer and the like.
Although Muse was silent most of the time during this trip, she secretly calculated in her mind and remembered that she had visited two peaks and four snow-capped mountains along the way. The direction was also all the way to the west.
As the terrain got lower and lower, the climate here gradually became warmer. The cold wind on the mountain no longer disappeared, and there was a touch of moisture and warmth in the air. And on the nineteenth day.
A heavy rain suddenly came, and the team rested for a day in a mountain valley. The wolf clan separated a group of wolf riders and went out along the mountain valley to explore the way.
When it was almost dawn, Muse heard the wolves suddenly cheering collectively. The howls of thousands of wolves were full of excitement and excitement. One by one, the werewolves looked up to the sky and roared, raising their long knives high and shouting shrilly.
The birds in the surrounding woods flew up in fright.
Muse felt a little scared when she heard this, but the elf next to her said with a warm smile: "Well, don't be afraid. That's because we are finally out of the mountains, and these guys will scream like this when they are happy."
"Out, out of the mountain..." Muse frowned.
Sure enough, after dawn, Muse also saw the group of wolf riders returning from exploring the road. These wolf riders did not come back empty-handed, they also brought back some "prey".
More than twenty cattle and sheep, four horses... and three humans!
Humanity!!
The humans brought back by this team of wolf riders were three men, one of whom looked like he was just an adult.
These three prisoners were all dressed in sheepskin robes and crude cowhide boots. When they walked, they had a strange limp, but still had some bow-legged appearance that had been formed after years of riding horses. They wore dirty sheepskin hats on their heads.
, all the wool has fallen off, and there are still a few pieces of pudding.
After staying in the northwest Desa province for many years, Muse had dealt with many caravans. She could tell at a glance that the clothes of these three captives were exactly the standard clothes of herdsmen on the grasslands!
Herdsmen? Grassland herdsmen?
Muse's eyes darkened a little.
The leather robes of these three herdsmen had been cut in many places, and all three of them had some scars. After being captured by the wolf riders, the face of the younger one of the three showed a bit of fear and panic.
The eyes of the two elders were only slightly surprised, but not much fearful. They looked more like a natural defense!
The skin was roughened by sleeping in the open air on the grassland, and his eyes were cold. The wolf rider was holding a long knife against him. The herdsman stared at the werewolves around him, but his face was full of hatred!
Muse stood outside and said nothing. Several elves walked over and talked with the werewolves for a while. After returning, Muse was told that these herdsmen were encountered by a group of wolf riders who went out to explore the road.
There was a herdsman family nearby with about 17 or 18 people. When they encountered the wolf cavalry, there were about 200 wolf cavalry. As a result, the wolf cavalry wiped out all the herdsmen! Among the 17 or 18 people, there were old, weak, women and children.
Most of them were killed. Although the grassland herdsmen stood up and resisted. Moreover, according to the news brought back from the wolf cavalry, these fierce herdsmen also caused some trouble to the wolf cavalry. The prairie herdsmen have excellent riding skills and have grown up on horses since childhood.
Big, no matter men, women, old or young, they can ride horses, shoot arrows, and swing scimitars.
In one battle, two wolf riders were injured.
There was also a herdsman who, relying on his excellent riding skills and fast horses, managed to escape with all his strength before being annihilated. These three prisoners were their family members who were captured alive by the wolf cavalry after fighting to the end. At this moment, they were already dead.
They were all turned into corpses. The tents were burned down and the cattle and sheep were brought back.
After hearing this, Muse was deeply shocked, but she only had one thought left!
Grassland! We have come to the grassland! We have crossed the Kilimaro Mountains and come to the grassland!!
These five thousand wolf riders, plus six hundred elf warriors, have quietly crossed the empire's barrier and arrived at the grassland on the side of the empire!!!
The three captured herdsmen were interrogated by the wolves, but unfortunately, although the elves had learned the human language, they were limited to the language of the empire and could not speak the language of the grassland people. The only one in the team was
The only one who understands the language of the prairie people is Muse.
But of course Muse herself would not take the initiative. She stood quietly aside and thought carefully.
Muse originally thought that these werewolves would lock her up with the three prairie captives. But she thought wrongly. It seems that along the way, these guys treated her preferentially. It seemed that it was purely because these elves took care of her. But these elves treated the three
He was a prairie prisoner, but he didn't seem to have any favorable impressions. Judging from the eyes the elves cast on the three prairie herdsmen, in addition to hostility, there was even a bit of disgust and contempt in their eyes. It seemed that one more glance would dirty their eyes.
Same.
Since the three herdsmen were not questioned or interrogated, they were quickly killed under the orders of the wolf tribe.
Muse was helpless and watched helplessly as the three herdsmen were stabbed to death. Before he died, the young boy shouted loudly in prairie dialect. Muse heard clearly what the young boy shouted:
"The great Witch King will punish you monsters! The great God of Snow Mountain will avenge you for the bloodshed of the grassland children!"
That night, Muse did not fall asleep. She was thinking in her heart: These wolf riders worked hard to cross the mountains, narrowly escaped death, and came to the grassland. Why?!
Three days later, Muse finally confirmed his guess!
As expected, my group has arrived at the grassland!
After trekking in the mountains for twenty days, even though the wolf riders were elite, they were already exhausted. Due to the lack of food, in order to save food for many days, most of the wolf riders were in a state of semi-starvation, and only a few elites maintained adequate food rations.
, maintaining combat effectiveness.
Under the order of Dominez, the leader of the wolf riders, five thousand elite wolf riders rested in this valley for three full days. At the same time, several groups of wolf riders were sent out to search everywhere. In three days, four hundred wolf riders
The wolf cavalry wiped out more than ten grassland herdsmen's villages, killed hundreds of herdsmen, and seized a large number of cattle, sheep, and horses, all of which became food for the wolf cavalry.
Three days later, the exhausted wolf riders who had been trekking for nearly a month finally recovered. Those werewolves who had regained their energy had a fierce light in their eyes again, and they began to sharpen their blades and wipe their armor with energy.
, while feeding the giant wolf...
Early that morning, under the order of the wolf rider leader, five thousand wolf riders set off and walked out of this valley...
Less than a few miles out of the mountain, the terrain in front suddenly opened up! I saw thousands of miles of green in front of me, endless grassland! There was no end to the vast grassland at a glance!
In the distance, the intersection of green grass and blue sky seems to be connected to the city!
This is the first time for most werewolves to see such an open grassland. Except for these small teams who went out to hunt before, most werewolves couldn't help but draw their swords on the back of the giant wolf and howl!
A wild nature hidden in their blood was inspired by the scenery of green grass and blue sky!
Wolves! They were supposed to live in this kind of world!
This wolf rider has become a bloody wind on the grassland!
Five thousand wolf riders and six hundred elf warriors turned into a killing stream, walking on the grassland for three days! In three days, they burned, killed and looted wherever they went, and every small group of herdsmen who encountered them
, all were destroyed!
Although the grassland people are fierce and capable in riding and shooting, after all, those small groups of herdsmen only have a population of three to five hundred at most, and young adults only account for 30% of the total population. If they encounter such five thousand wolf riders, they will only be bullied.
It's my share.
Along the way, the herdsmen's cattle and sheep became food for the wolf riders, and they burned and killed each nomadic village one by one. The wolf riders encountered almost no effective resistance.
Moreover, the Wolf Cavalry moves quickly, coming and going like the wind, and is gone in one strike. Even when several large tribes on the grassland got the news that such a foreign enemy had appeared, and prepared to organize people to resist, the Wolf Cavalry was
Gone long ago!
Muse followed the team, puzzled as to what on earth these five thousand elite wolf riders were doing here.
Running behind the empire and attacking? But that's not like it.
Although the five thousand wolf cavalry are elite, if they run into the interior of the empire, they will have no choice but to destroy themselves. What’s more, this is a grassland. What does burning, killing, and looting here have to do with the empire?
Finally on the eighth day after entering the grassland.
Wolf Rider encountered a caravan!
This is a caravan coming from within the empire. There are about a hundred people in the caravan, including thirty mercenaries from the Desert Fox Mercenary Group to protect them.
When I saw the long cavalry, hundreds of wolf cavalry roared and rushed forward!
Muse saw the caravan from a distance, and on the leader's horse was a familiar flag!
Golden tulip flag!!
On the grassland, any caravan with a tulip flag has long become an object of awe from various tribes. Due to Du Wei's prestige in the northwest, even the most powerful Saladin on the grassland has to look up to Du Wei.
, on the grassland. Absolutely no tribe dares to rob the caravan flying the flag of the Tulip Family!
But this time, looking at the roaring wolf cavalry, the caravan was obviously caught off guard. It didn't even have time to gather the horses to form a defense, and was directly overwhelmed by the roaring wolf cavalry!
Seeing the caravans of the Tulip family being massacred by wolf riders, Muse flushed, clenched her fists, and gritted her teeth desperately. She was about to go up and fight, but was stopped by the elves around her. Those elves were powerful and even more powerful.
To be continued...
