Chapter 518 - 506: Heavy-Armored Ogres
Chapter 518 - 506: Heavy-Armored Ogres
Ogre camp.
For this type of creature, Chen Feng was not unfamiliar. He had encountered three such creatures before, with gray skin and a quirk for feeding on humans.
However, unlike the sparse numbers before, the ogres in this camp numbered in the hundreds.
Ogres are a social species; they even have their own civilization, with slaughter and sacrifice taking up a large part of their lives.
For ogres, they often worship a god of bloody and cruel hunting, a widely recognized evil god who believes that strong power can be obtained through fresh blood.
Thus, the believers of the hunting god offer up adequate amounts of fresh blood to their master at a fixed time each month to gain power.
And for this hunting god, nothing is more favored than blood imbued with divine energy; Unicorns and Angels become the primary prey for the believers. During sacrifices, the believers often gather together, recite intricate prayers, and then use a boning knife to cut open the prey’s veins, letting its life slowly fade away.
It is a difficult wait.
The hunting god is favored by the evil faction, attracting Hunters, Vampires, Ogres, and even a group of criminals who have fallen into darkness.
Of course, ogres are the kind that side with whoever is stronger, like a weed swaying in the wind. Besides the hunting god, they serve other powerful beings to find peace.
Competition in the Other Dimension is far more brutal than in the Human World.
In the world where ogres live, too many creatures are mixed in; humans are undoubtedly predominant. Weaker city-states are occupied by Elves, Beastmen, and Dwarves. Wild creatures like ogres survive in the cracks, and with countless battles occurring, these seemingly powerful groups often get razed to the ground in an instant.
Therefore, ogres, goblins, and kobolds, when conditions allow, will try to hug the leg of a giant to escape disaster under its protection when crisis approaches.
Li Linhua appeared a bit flustered. She learned of the camp’s terrors through insects. Unlike the ordinary warriors around her who were eager to ally with Chen Feng to eradicate this threat, she felt a much stronger pressure.
A black Giant Dragon.
As Li Linhua placed her hand on the insect’s head to sense its memories, she saw a terrifying and majestic face.
As the black skin slowly sketched itself, a face resembling a Skeleton appeared. Even lying there, it emitted a piercing chill, as if one gaze could pierce through the body, leaving no chance to resist.
This was the deepest secret in Li Linhua’s heart.
In the past, she hadn’t even told Xing Yong, fearing that if anyone else knew, the base would completely lose confidence.
But now...
When Li Linhua revealed all this to Chen Feng, her intention was to persuade him to leave. But who would have thought that this young man, instead of planning to leave, surrounded the area with hundreds of people.
All directed toward a single goal!
He actually intended to slay a dragon!
At this thought, Li Linhua shivered; for her before, this would have been impossible.
No matter how strong humans are, they are never a match for a Giant Dragon.
After all, weak humans and the scale-clad Giant Dragon are not on the same level. Even with Xing Yong’s strength, facing such an invincible presence would lead only to death.
But Chen Feng was different. This visitor from a strange region not only wiped out an insect swarm with a flip of his hand but also descended upon the base on a white Giant Dragon as a mighty figure. Perhaps... he truly had the capability to slay a dragon.
Yet, a prerequisite must be fulfilled: dealing with the ogre creatures in front of them.
Chen Feng observed everything before him; these ogres were clearly divided in their roles. Some even built houses, evidently having a meticulously planned tribe with a leader.
Just like humans, without a leader, they would be disorganized. Too much hope should not be placed on ogres, as these are creatures known for laziness and lack of intelligence.
But once they have a leader, the situation becomes drastically different. A single ogre isn’t terrifying, but when hundreds of muscle-bound giants stand together, they form a formidable combat force.
Ogres are very dangerous creatures; their skin is as tough as ordinary leather armor, and they have thick layers of fat, making it hard for normal arrows to penetrate their organs.
Of course, Chen Feng’s warriors are exceptions. Among the three hundred men, none wield ordinary bows and arrows but rather devastatingly destructive firearms. Although they might not kill with a single shot, injuring the enemy should be manageable.
Lu Wei stood aside, holding binoculars. After a moment, he said with a somber face, "Sir...these creatures are well-organized, and some of them are even clad in heavy armor."
Chen Feng frowned, took the binoculars from Lu Wei’s hand, and looked forward.
Indeed, compared to the brute strength ogres on the outskirts, there were a dozen or so even more burly ogres sitting in the center of the camp, not only over three meters tall and explosively muscular, but also draped in some steel-made heavy armor.
Of course, the heavy armor was not refined, but rather like several steel plates pieced together. Ogres were not skilled craftsmen, and this was the simplest assembling technique. Yet, even so, they had shed their flesh bodies and transformed into a defensive form encased in iron.
Look at their footprints deeply embedded in the ground; the weight of this heavy armor exceeds three hundred pounds. For ordinary humans, this weight alone could crush them, but for ogres, they wield it effortlessly, feeling no pressure at all.
These heavy-armored ogres are undoubtedly the first targets to attack!
In the attack, if they run to the front of the ogres, they would undoubtedly become a steel fortress, and Chen Feng’s task is to eliminate their lives with the fastest speed.
"Lu Wei!" Chen Feng’s voice was somewhat cold.
This warrior, who had witnessed too much bloodshed, like a beast smelling blood, bent down at the waist, waiting for Chen Feng’s orders.
"Lead the Dark Department and encircle those monsters. Even if you can’t eliminate them, don’t let them reach the forefront!"
"Yes!" Lu Wei nodded, then turned to a group of fierce professionals.
The Dark Department.
Chen Feng’s personal guard.
Many of them were promoted personally by Chen Feng, who melted the bloodline of monsters to grant them a new life. With each battle happening, what was initially an unintentional move by Chen Feng had borne fruit.
Led by Lu Wei, the Dark Department members already exceeded sixty-eight people. These people were undoubtedly the elite among the forces, and in battle, each was a butcher harvesting lives.
This time, a total of thirty Dark Department members came along with Chen Feng, and upon learning the orders, these people stood together, their murderous intent gathered like wolf smoke, making one feel an iron-blooded determination.
The warriors nearby were somewhat accustomed, knowing well how terrifying these monsters were. Yes, after Chen Feng’s blood sacrifice, some people gained power, and even their bodies changed.
With a turtle form and parasitic hands, even sharing a body with the host, and besides, there were those who could never sleep, with dark circles but controlled the power of sand.
In both temperament and appearance, these Dark Department members were undoubtedly the most dazzling group of warriors.
Where Chen Feng’s gaze fell, he saw pairs of fanatical eyes and mouths shouting loudly, as the warriors could hardly control their emotions.
These lives, who stepped one foot into hell only to be saved by Chen Feng, already viewed him as their sole object of loyalty.
Moreover, through countless battles, they confirmed one thing: under Chen Feng’s leadership, they would eventually achieve victory, whether against devils or these monsters clad in heavy armor!
Li Linhua stood dumbfounded nearby, only now realizing the gap between her and Chen Feng. She was surprised to find that among these few hundred people, there were several with strength comparable to Xing Yong.
No wonder...
Xing Yong was so thoroughly defeated, as the two sides were not even in the same league!
For the upcoming plans, Li Linhua had no impression, only knowing that she and the helpers from the base were arranged to the side to handle collection work. But Li Linhua also had self-awareness, knowing this was to prevent affecting the battle, intentionally placing them at the rear.
But Li Linhua also knew it was a critical period. Although her people were involved in some hunts in the past, the opponents were merely small fries, unlike those monsters not far away, over three meters tall, just standing there instilling fear and recklessly joining the battle might have negative impacts.
As the fear gradually dissipated, Li Linhua’s curiosity grew, wondering where Chen Feng came from and what kind of force he had.
This woman, who had protected thousands, thought silently, "All Xing Yong did was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. If Chen Feng could truly eliminate these monsters, then those in the base would be completely saved. By then, aligning with him might be the best choice!"
Chen Feng was unaware of Li Linhua’s current thoughts but focused all his attention on the ogre camp.
Black Dragon?
This was undoubtedly his ultimate target.
Chen Feng raised his hand, finally fixed his gaze on the terrifying face of the ogre, and then fiercely swung his hand down: "Throwers ready..."
"Throw for me!"
