Chapter 278 The Centaur on the Plateau
The plateau area of the Lilliputian Kingdom is much wider than the Gangdu Kingdom and the Feilan Kingdom combined, and there are countless alien races living here.
And the centaur clan occupying the ruins of Marsha is the best of these alien races!
The centaurs who have evolved into a slave society are like nomads on the grassland, relying on their talents to run amok in this plateau.
The fighting methods are fierce and fierce, and they often bully those plateau barbarians to the point of needlessness.
Therefore, the centaur tribe was able to build Marsha City as the royal city on the best land near the Marsha ruins.
The centaur king sits in the royal city and commands other centaur tribes on the plateau with his prestige.
According to the current ruling structure of the centaur clan, whenever a war is about to break out, there will be centaur warriors running around the centaur tribes holding the king's order.
The centaur chieftains of various centaur tribes summoned warriors to the royal city of Marsha to wait for dispatch.
As for the military force directly under the direct control of the centaur king, it is mainly two elite troops.
One is a centaur archer who wears white armor and mainly rides and shoots, and the other is a centaur heavy armored cavalry who is full-time in black heavy armor and rushes into battle.
The centaur clan called these two armies the White Armored Army and the Black Armored Army according to the custom.
The plateau barbarians fearfully called it the Army of Black and White Death.
Every time the barbarians fought with the centaurs, they always collapsed with the entry of these two armies!
Therefore, for a long time, the centaur clan has long looked down on those barbarians who live on the plateau.
Therefore, when the centaur king suddenly summoned the generals and announced that he would form an alliance with the barbarians, these centaur generals expressed their dissatisfaction.
Even though it was heard that there were 180-meter giants eyeing the plateau, they still didn't feel that they had anything to do with those barbarians.
What will those guys do besides snatch the caravan with them?
As for giants?
ha! If he dares to come, let him know the invincible ability of the centaur race on the plateau!
The centaur king looked helpless at his confident subordinates, but he also knew that it would be too difficult for these foolish people to understand the specific concept of a 180-meter giant.
After all, as a centaur with relatively high intelligence, I actually don't understand what's going on with the 180-meter giant.
He also relied on wizards to compare the giant to the Hydra king, and emphasized that the giant is bigger and more powerful than the Hydra king!
The Centaur King, who traveled to the Qianyu Empire in his early years and met the Hydra King, understood the seriousness of the matter, and reluctantly agreed to the suggestions of those wizards.
And made some layouts in advance. In the outer area of Marsha City, the guarding force of the sentry tower was strengthened, and the centaur warrior with the best running and eyesight was stationed there.
At this time, on a desolate hill on the border between the plateau and the Kingdom of Steel, there stood a small wooden camp.
This camp originally belonged to a barbarian tribe, but after being attacked by the centaur tribe, it became the sentry tower of the centaur tribe.
The centaurs specially built a slope so that they can climb up the watchtower with their size.
And let the centaur priests in the clan cast spells so that the centaur who climbed the watchtower can get the blessing of exploring witchcraft such as enhanced vision.
It allowed the centaur to observe the surrounding military situation condescendingly.
Whether it is the expedition team or the merchants, as long as they appear, they cannot escape the detection of the centaur warriors on the watchtower.
Then a centaur tribe living outside the sentry tower will make choices based on the actual situation.
Of course, half of them chose to loot!
At this time, a centaur soldier who lost the bet was standing listlessly on the watchtower, performing his duties.
But in his heart he was cursing the death of the leader who robbed it of its spoils.
"Phew... When I grow up and become an adult, I will definitely fight the headman!"
The centaur was grunting, and suddenly found that the surrounding light suddenly dimmed.
"The dark clouds came really fast today."
Suddenly, the centaur heard a noise from below.
The centaur leaned down and looked at the several companions in the camp who raised their heads and yelled, "What's wrong?"
"monster!"
"There are... monsters in the sky!"
Hearing the cry below clearly, the centaur on the watchtower raised his head in surprise.
Suddenly it widened its eyes and saw what caused the sky to darken.
A bird of prey that spread its wings and covered the entire sky, leaving the ground cool, is falling towards them at high speed!
And just when the centaur saw it, it dropped a frighteningly large green glass bottle!
"what is that?"
Looking at the glass bottle that was getting bigger and bigger, several times longer than the ten-meter-high watchtower I was standing on.
Under the great sense of crisis, this centaur burst out with amazing potential.
The ancient blood in his body awakened, allowing it to jump out of the watchtower in just two or three seconds, surpassing those panicked companions, and ran out of the gate.
The centaur looked back at the familiar sentry tower, and looked at the green glass bottle that had already fallen and occupied more than half of the camp.
It quietly breathed a sigh of relief:
Since I was so far away, I should be able to escape, right?
Boom!
The beer bottle from the Andean Condor fell on the sentry tower, and it exploded all of a sudden.
A huge ball of fire exploded from it and swept across the entire camp, engulfing all the centaurs inside into the sea of flames!
The centaur who had just escaped from the camp was also knocked to the ground by the sudden surge of fire waves, and was then engulfed in flames!
Obviously, in the face of the home-made Molotov cocktail from the great protector of the kingdom.
Its escape speed is far from enough!
"Very good!" Xiao Yu, who shared vision with the Andean Condor, nodded while driving.
"First target cleared."
"The next thing... is a centaur tribe nearby!"
Xiao Yu opened the map and studied it together with the wizards of Inotia on their shoulders.
"Yes, Your Highness, as long as we don't let go of this centaur camp, our whereabouts will not be revealed in a short time!"
According to the information provided by Tuhar, a native of the plateau in the black guard.
The sorcery of this plateau is really not brilliant.
Many tribes still maintain the simple way of communication through the roar.
There are only a few large-scale witchcraft facilities that can communicate with distant places.
As for the communication facilities that can span the entire plateau, only a few royal cities can have them.
With Xiao Yu's marching speed, after killing the camp with long-distance communication facilities, even if he is discovered by aliens, he doesn't have to worry about anything.
Those two-legged or four-legged guys, can they run faster than their own four-wheeled ones?
