Chapter 61 Centaurs and Gnolls
Chapter 61 Centaurs and Gnolls
The centaur stared at the ginseng head in front of him, racking his brains but still unable to figure out how an old face could be printed on it.
But that was the truth, which startled him so much that he jumped up from the ground instantly, demonstrating just how superb the ginseng old man's medical skills were.
The centaurs that leaped up from the ground suddenly realized that the group of people surrounding them were very different from the ugly gnolls.
Gnolls have yellow and black fur, while these guys are mostly gray. Gnolls' fur often stands up, making them look very aggressive, while these guys' fur looks much softer.
In fact, that's not all. These guys are quite different from gnolls in many ways. For example, the way they look at you isn't as fierce; instead, it carries a hint of...
curious?
The centaur suddenly realized that he wasn't the only one who had been captured; the gnoll who had been chasing him was also now bound and lying on the ground.
Just then, the gnoll who had been captured with him also woke up from the ground. Seeing the chaotic scene around him, he immediately began to struggle excitedly, and then...
Then I got slapped twice.
"Damn, you're pretty awesome!"
"Who gave you permission to move?"
"Keep moving! Keep moving! I'll slap you twice if you move again."
"Ouch!"
clap clap!
Under the guidance of the surrounding lesser demons, the weak jackal quickly calmed down, becoming as docile as a little puppy.
"The King is here! The King is here! Make way at once!"
While the centaur was still in a daze, the guys surrounding him suddenly shouted. Judging from their tone and the direction they were looking, the centaur guessed that their tribal chief had arrived!
Soon, a figure, surrounded by demons, arrived before the centaur. Handsome features, a perfect physique, and an indescribable aura—standing before the centaur…
Is it a human?
Centaur blinked several times, thinking he must have been unconscious for too long and was hallucinating.
No matter how many times he blinked or shook his head, the figure in front of him still looked at him with a smile.
What are these guys trying to do? Why are they pushing a human in front of them?
Later, the centaurs discovered a horrifying fact: the group of creatures were all looking at the human with respectful eyes.
"Hello."
The human greeted them first, and the centaur, looking at the smiling face, was momentarily at a loss for words.
Before he could figure out what was going on, the gnoll started barking wildly.
"You, a human being, dare to talk to me?"
Clearly, he was somewhat disoriented after being slapped twice, and coupled with excessive blood loss, his mind was a bit foggy. He didn't even observe his surroundings and started barking like a dog, completely unaware of the increasingly cold gazes of the little demons around him.
Lin Tian first raised his hand slightly to calm the little demons, then strolled over to the jackal-man and said in a cryptic tone:
"You hate me?"
"Hmph! How dare you, a mere human, speak with a noble gnoll warrior!"
His brain was already damaged, and he still thought that Lin Tian was just like those ordinary people. So his bullying and cowardly nature kicked in again, looking at his arrogant appearance.
Lin Tian smiled.
He moved a little closer to the gnoll, a move that immediately made the gnoll's eyes flash with ferocity, and it bared its sharp teeth as if to bite.
pop~
However, Lin Tian was one step ahead of him. He suddenly grabbed the jackal by the neck and began to slowly exert force.
Faced with Lin Tian's sudden attack, the gnoll was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that it wanted to bite the hand that Lin Tian was using to choke its neck.
However, under Lin Tian's choking, he was able to move for a few seconds at first, but as Lin Tian's strength gradually increased, he gradually lost all limb movement.
Lin Tian's figure grew taller and taller in his eyes, and in the blink of an eye, he grew into a giant that he could not look up to. The giant's scarlet eyes stared at him intently, as if he wanted to take his life!
Gradually, the gnoll's bright eyes began to become cloudy, and his consciousness began to become confused. Just as he was about to be strangled to death, Lin Tian suddenly let go.
The rescued gnoll gasped for breath, and just when he thought Lin Tian had let him go, Lin Tian suddenly said:
"Hey!"
"Was it fun just now?"
"No......."
As the gnoll spoke, he looked up at Lin Tian, but before he could utter a word of no, he met Lin Tian's mocking gaze.
"I......"
boom! ! !
Pfft!
Lin Tian threw a punch, and with a loud bang, the jackal was instantly pierced through by Lin Tian's fist!
Looking at the gnoll's lifeless eyes, Lin Tian was full of disgust. He casually tossed the gnoll's mangled corpse to the ground, as if it were a worthless toy.
Taking the handcloths handed to him by the lesser demons, Lin Tian's eyes remained icy. He couldn't help it; this guy was too arrogant, and he wasn't exactly a saint himself, so he wouldn't do anything like that.
Although you insulted me, that's just your nature. I don't blame you, and I forgive you.
What's more, this guy is a prisoner of war. How dare he be so arrogant when he can be manipulated at will?
The whole process didn't last long, but it deeply shocked the man and horse. He looked at the gnoll corpses on the ground, then at the fierce-looking Lin Tian, and his heart pounded wildly.
He now understood why the lesser demons around him were so respectful to this person.
If it were me, I would also be respectful!
Just as the men and horses were filled with fear, Lin Tian appeared before them, his gentle smile returning.
"Let's talk!"
....................
Lin Tian quickly obtained a lot of information from the centaur. First of all, the centaur was named Liga, and he was a hunting warrior from the forest centaur tribe living in the middle of the Black Forest.
He had just completed his New Year's ceremony a while ago, and then went hunting with the rest of the hunting team, but they ended up encountering the gnolls, who were their tribe's mortal enemies!
According to Liga, the gnolls were fierce and cunning, and they often organized raids on their hunting parties, causing them heavy losses.
In fact, logically speaking, gnolls should be no match for forest centaurs. A forest centaur can often take on two or three gnolls at the same time, and they have always had the upper hand in the battle.
But there was nothing they could do; there were simply too many gnolls. Through long-term fighting, their tribe's able-bodied men had been constantly depleted, and now the tribe was extremely weak. If things continued like this, it would soon be swallowed up by the gnoll tribe.
Liga looked worried as he spoke, and he didn't seem to be faking it. Right after he finished speaking, Lin Tian's task panel suddenly updated.
