Fairy tale: Little Red Riding Hood's wolf mentor

"Didn't you say earlier that giants mostly act alone?"

Lake opened her eyes wide, looking at the war-torn battlefield, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are there so many giants now!?"

"I... what I said earlier was also heard a long time ago, after all, I am not a Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) person."

The old soldier's expression was a little dignified.

As the group walked into the village, they saw even more shocking scenes - the remains of soldiers.

Speaking of remains, they were more like the remaining shells left after people had eaten shrimp or crabs!

It's just... now, these shrimps and crabs are soldiers.

And the diners are giants!

What remained on the ground were countless armors with flesh and blood remains!

These hard Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) armors were twisted and scattered on the ground, they were twisted, dented, and the group could even see extremely clear tooth marks on the surface of some armors!

Seeing this, Poro could even imagine that the giants were like eating shrimp and crabs...

Putting the desperate and struggling Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) soldiers in their hands, peeling off their armor, devouring their flesh, and finally, throwing the tasteless gold and iron still clinging to some flesh on the ground.

And judging from the traces of this battlefield, ordinary metal is far less hard than the bones and even muscles of giants!

"Remember what I told you earlier?"

The old soldier suddenly said.

"About the part about the giants of the Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom?"

"Yes, now, I may have other guesses about the reason why those Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) elite soldiers went to the Sino(思诺: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom."

The old soldier picked up an ordinary long sword stained with blood from the ground and examined it carefully.

Such an ordinary long sword without inscriptions would not have any power to fight back against giants!

"The Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom sent that prince and elite soldiers to the Sino(思诺: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom, perhaps they were taking a risk, seeking life in danger!

At that time, although the Sino(思诺: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom lost an army, the Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom should not have been so aggressive...

Unless——

They felt that compared with the remaining troops of the Sino(思诺: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom, there was an even more terrifying existence!

For example... if some giants united!"

The group looked at the tragic situation around them and shivered.

At this time, they were extremely grateful that they had not come here before the giants attacked the city. With such destructive power, even if they now possessed... combat power close to the limit of ordinary people.

It would be difficult to retreat completely from the battle with the giants!

"What kind of monsters are giants?"

Lake looked at the surrounding houses.

The originally neatly distributed houses were all damaged at this time, and there was not a single intact house.

Their roofs were all lifted off by some kind of great force.

Every floor was the same!

Behind the messy remains of soldiers, the houses that should have been inhabited by residents had become silent graves!

Poro smelled countless bloody smells pervading in the air.

Looking around, he couldn't find a single complete body!

"Will they... also check the houses? Like... catching wild game hiding in the corners?"

Lake looked at the walls of those houses. On the way, she had seen dark red bloodstains smeared on the walls of many houses.

In the corners, broken arms, hands, and feet... were everywhere everywhere.

There was even a... headless person!

Many houses were ignited by flames after being destroyed by giants, and large areas of buildings were burning in the raging flames, and thick smoke columns shot straight into the sky——

This was the " cooking smoke" that Poro and others had seen before.

The group became more and more silent, and Lake no longer had the initial expectations she had shown when she saw the village.

Although they had walked a long way, the group was hungry.

But at this time, the hunger in their stomachs seemed to disappear.

In the town, a not-so-large market had bread, vegetable leaves, and other foods scattered on the ground, mixed with human blood.

Even if there were a few clean ones, the group couldn't bring themselves to pick them up at this time!

Finally, following the bloody armor of the Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) soldiers, the group arrived at the center of the town, where the bloody smell was even more soaring to the sky!

The entire ground was basically dyed red by blood!

More importantly... the group saw several huge ballista, made of metal and wood!

The surfaces of these ballista, like the crossbow arrows, were also engraved with dense patterns——

Also a kind of formation.

Some glittering minerals were scattered on the ground.

"These... should be used to provide magical energy for the formation."

Lake picked up a crystal and looked at it against the setting sun.

Inside the crystal, there were still faint strands of weak orange light.

"I saw the introduction of this kind of crystal in the notes, it is... a kind of magical crystal produced in the Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom, even ordinary people without magical talent can use this crossbow arrow through it."

Lake continued to explain.

"What? Ordinary people can also... use it!?"

Poro's eyes widened when he heard this, and he instantly remembered... the fantasy products he had seen in some novels in his previous life, which were called " magic technology"!

"Then if they accelerate the production of this kind of ballista, and then arm the army with large numbers of ballista... as long as there are enough materials, wouldn't they be invincible!?"

"How could it be that simple!"

Lake shrugged her shoulders when she heard this, "Although ordinary people can also use it, the craftsmen who build the ballista and engrave the crossbows are extremely rare!

To be precise, that kind of craftsman is also a special caster, even rarer than witches!"

Lake put the dropped orange magical crystal into the backpack behind her, and continued to explain to Poro, "Poro, your magic notes——should also talk about it, right?

The birth of each such magic user can be said to be a one-in-a-million miracle!"

"So that's how it is..."

Poro's eyes dimmed slightly. Through these few words, he also roughly understood, "This is different from the extremely universal physics like in the previous life.

Magic is an extremely idealistic power.

The " talent" it requires is not only the physical talent that can be achieved through acquired efforts, but also... the mysterious mysterious " soul talent"!

In this world...

The physics of the previous life can no longer explain everything!

"Can these ' giant butchers' still be used?"

"No, they are all broken."

After picking up the crystal, Lake had already gone to check the several ballista that were fallen aside, and these ballista had obviously suffered extremely violent damage from the giants!

Their wooden carriages and metal parts were scattered on the ground.

falling apart!

To describe it in a certain way... it's like one small car after another that has collided with a train!

"I can't fix them either. Their damage is even greater than the prince's armor. Perhaps... give me a few more years. If I can get started with the magic required for this manufacturing process...

I can build such a ' giant butcher' from scratch."

Lake added, "Even starting from scratch is much faster than repairing these few!"

The setting sun had sunk towards the horizon.

The dim afterglow was gradually being swallowed by darkness, and it was almost night.

"Today... we can only spend the night here."

In the dim light, this town seemed even more silent.

Poro looked ahead at a small castle-like building in the town center, where the lord of this small town should have lived.

But no matter who this lord was - he is probably more dead than alive now.

That castle had collapsed halfway, revealing a... large hole that even a giant could reach into!

The group walked into the castle and saw more strange scenes.

In the castle, the door to the vault where money was stored had been torn open by great force, and there were some empty wooden boxes and bags that had originally been placed inside, with only a very small portion of gold coins scattered in the corners.

It was more like... they had fallen out during transportation!

"There should have been a lot of property stored here before."

Poro guessed, "Would giants want... human property?"

"No, although giants have the word ' person' in their name, can speak, and have an appearance that is very similar to humans - but their habits are completely different from humans!"

At this time, the old soldier next to him said affirmatively, "They don't have human civilization, they don't trade, and they don't make sophisticated weapons, although some giants may like to collect some messy things.

But they——

Compared to capturing living people, they would never possibly choose to loot a city lord's vault!"

Seeing this, Poro also thought about the walls of those houses outside that had been opened, every corner that had been searched, and... the cellars that had been overturned that he had seen before.

If giants were really stupid creatures, how could they completely bloodbath an entire village so carefully!?

And the giants who had lived alone for decades suddenly come together gave Poro an ominous premonition.

The sky of the Bo Ren(泊壬: Name of a kingdom) Kingdom is like an invisible smoke, gradually gathering...

Black night is coming.
