The leisurely life of a magician

At this moment, there was a rustling sound from the grass not far away. John was so excited that he didn't pay attention, but Rhine and Li Ke noticed it, and turned their heads to look in that direction.

Not only elves and orcs live on the self-propelled grasslands of Wuqimahei, but also nocturnal races.

However, there are no nocturnal races in the Kajikajiu Great Forest in the northern part of the self-propelled grassland, but there are lizard-human races living in the Karakala Great Forest in the south.

Lizardmen are nocturnal creatures, they sleep during the day and forage for food at night, but this is not absolute.But it is recorded in the history books in the library of the Academy of Magic.All races except the Beastmen can be classified as the Demon Race, and their ancestors are all subordinates of the Demon King.

But the demon king of this world has long been killed by the first generation of brave men. These demons are all descendants of the remnant party at that time, and they were almost hunted down by humans.But at that time, in order to survive in the cracks, the orc king lived with these demons to resist the invasion of those humans.

Later, a wise king appeared in human beings, negotiated with the king of Wuqimahei, and finally signed a peace treaty not to interfere with each other, and even started various trades between the two countries.

After seeing a diamond-shaped long gun made of stone emerge from the grass.

Rhine's first reaction: Is that the lizard people?

John's first reaction: ... Sure enough, he went the wrong way again.

Soon, the man with the gun came out from the undergrowth. It was a lizard walking on two feet, and a cloth strip was fastened around his waist.

Then, the four looked at each other.

Then, the lizardman's stomach made a gurgling sound, as if he was hungry.

……

"Eat, eat." John enthusiastically invited the lizard man to eat.

According to the lizard population, his name is Ode, he is from the Kasang tribe, and he is here tonight to inquire about the news of the Kabu tribe.The Kabu tribe and the Kasang tribe have always been at odds. The patriarchs of the two tribes are twin brothers, but it is precisely because of this that the two have to compete.

The lizard people are also a race that upholds the law of the jungle. If they want to rule the entire Caracalla Forest, they must compete. The winning party will become the owner of the Caracalla Forest, while the losing party must leave here forever. Do not come back.

The two patriarchs have been competing since they were young, and it has continued until now, but neither of them has won the other, so the current situation is quite stable.Probably not really wanting to make the other party have no place to stay, but I can't take back what I said, so I just froze.

According to Odd, this is their fourth investigation this month, and it is estimated that the battle will officially start next week.Ode obviously doesn't like war, because every time a war starts, many people will die.Those who were about Odd's age were almost dead.

As for Odd, he is a lucky guy. Every time he goes to the battlefield, his life is not in danger, because he has been watching from the outside and never enters the battle circle.

"The current situation is like this, and I don't know when it will end." Odd said emotionally, but the movements of his hands were not affected at all, and he picked up the rabbit meat and stuffed it into his mouth.

"You said, every time you go to war, many people will die?" Li Ke suddenly said.

This made John next to him feel bad.

Odd nodded: "Yes."

"Since he's dead, there's nothing he can do, right?" Li Ke rubbed his chin and muttered.

When Li Ke was bored, he checked the status bar and saw the magic of bringing the dead back to life, but it was a magic that violated the laws of the entire world.Of course Li Ke didn't think about using it, he was thinking how about turning these people into undead?

One of the eight subordinates of the Demon King has the undead clan, known as the bone marshal, who can command an army of millions of undead.At that time, it posed a considerable threat to the human race. In the end, it was only under the pressure of the holy spirit magic of the high priest of the temple and other clergy that they stopped their pace.

The magic to transform the undead is easy, but the magic to bring the dead back to life is difficult.It needs to pay a price to activate, and you have to exchange your own life in an equivalent exchange to resurrect others.He is not a holy father who saves the world, and it is impossible for him to fold himself in for strangers.

Odd: "There is no way, it can only be put in the cellar."

"In the cellar for what?" John asked.Shouldn't it be buried in the ground when it's dead?

"Ah? Of course, it will be used as food when food is in short supply in winter."

John was shocked, this, this race actually eats the same kind...

Odd also reacted, and said to John, "Our race is different from yours. There is not much to eat in the Caracalla forest in winter, and we don't have enough food reserves, so we can only eat the same kind of corpses, otherwise we will be extinct immediately. of."

Although Odd's words have some truth, but John will not be able to accept it for a while.Just imagine, if humans eat their own kind—

John felt a little queasy.

Li Ke didn't pay attention to this point, he began to try to build a team of undead.Using necromantic magic can transform the corpse into an undead that obeys his orders, so that you don't need to walk in the future, just let these guys carry the sedan chair.

But, lizardman skeleton soldiers?Li Ke thought about it and gave up, he didn't think the lizard skeleton soldier was handsome at all!And it sounds very weak, it's better to turn the monster into an undead directly.

Rhine didn't care about Odd's words, he had already learned about these things from books, and the lizard people have lived so harshly since their birth.Imposing a human point of view on them is clearly not applicable.

So, he was still grilling the meat without saying a word.

"Can we go to your tribe to see?" Li Ke said to Ode.

"Huh?" Not only Odd, John and Rhine also looked at him.

Is the Caracalla Forest different from their destination?Shouldn't they have gone to the big forest to find elves and orcs?Why did you change your itinerary all of a sudden?

"Anyway, it's an eye-opener. It doesn't matter if you go to Ord's tribe for a while?" Li Ke looked at John and said, "John, I've wronged you first. It doesn't matter to see the elf grandma and orc grandma later, right?"

John opened his mouth, then closed it.It wasn't once or twice that Li Ke teased him, and he firmly believed that if he dared to answer, he would probably be teased by Li Ke again.

"What elf orc grandma?" Odd asked curiously.

"Ode, how old are you?" Li Ke asked.

"Me? I'm 87."

Li Ke smiled; "Yes, there is a grandpa here."

John wants to cry but has no tears, can he still play together?

Aode subconsciously understood Li Ke's words, and quickly explained: "I'm still young! Don't look at how old 87 is, I'm only an adult in our tribe!"

Compared with these alien races, the human race can only live for a maximum of 120 years, and the average age is only 85 years old, which is two years younger than Odd, so Li Ke said that it is not a problem for the grandparents. Of course, this is for the human race.

"You've been here for so long, is it okay to patrol?" Li Ke asked.

"Ah?" Odd slapped his forehead and stood up abruptly, "I forgot!!"

John: ...This guy's reflex arc is so long.

"Also, can we visit your tribe?" Li Ke asked again.He was originally talking about this question, but who knew that Odd brought the wrong topic and brought it to age.

"That's no problem!" Ode patted his chest, "Don't look at me like this, I'm also the son of the patriarch!"

Rhine: ...the patriarch is really unfortunate to have a son like you.After the four of them ate and drank enough, Li Ke chose to rest at the same place because he was too sleepy. He would visit Ode and their tribe tomorrow, but Ode simply did not leave and stayed to rest together.

Early the next morning.

After the four of them washed up, Ode took Li Ke and the others to their tribe.

After walking for a while, Rhine suddenly asked: "Ode, what if we are spies sent by the other side to infiltrate your tribe?"

"How is that possible?" Ode said casually, but the next second he froze in place, and then ran two steps forward, holding a gun and facing the three of Li Ke: "You, are you spies?"

Li Ke, Rhine, John: ...

"I'm talking about if, if!" Rhine quickly explained, so as not to deepen the misunderstanding, "If so, what should you do? You guys should be wary of taking people to the tribe!"

"That's it." Odd put away the stone gun, heaved a sigh of relief, and began to explain: "But my intuition tells me that you are not bad people."

"Intuition? Is that thing accurate?" John wondered.

"Sure!" Odd nodded, "I've always relied on my intuition, that's why I've lived until now."

Rhine;...It must be because the two sides paddled water during the fight that they have survived to this day.

Fortunately, they didn't struggle with this matter for long.

After walking for about half an hour, Li Ke and others came out of the forest, and their sight gradually opened up.Not far away is a larger flat land, on which stands a house made of stone and mud, no, it is an exaggeration to say that the house is.

The perimeter of the tribe is a fence made of sharpened wood, and plants similar to thorns and vines are wrapped around the fence. There are many potholes behind the fence, and several lizardmen are putting purple fruits into the pits.

Rhine recognized it at a glance, it was the paralysis fruit.As long as the paralyzing fruit is squeezed, it will explode and release paralyzing gas.This is obviously quite delicate work. Most of the lizardmen are big and rough, so there are quite a few 'killed' lizardmen piled up on the hillside not far from these potholes.

Bang-!

One of the lizardmen was too strong and crushed the paralysis fruit. The purple mist instantly spread to envelop him, and he fell to the ground before holding on for three seconds.The place where he fell happened to have a buried numbness fruit, and it was obvious that he had received the baptism of the numbness fruit again.

"This is our Kasang tribe!" Odd was used to the embarrassment of those lizardmen, and he didn't feel any embarrassment on his face.

"Odd—!" At this moment, a roaring roar came from not far away.
