my age of magic

Chapter 118 119. The Awe of the Scroll
Making traps has always been one of the means hunters rely on for survival. It has become the five development directions of hunters along with archery, camouflage, tracking, and beast domestication. Orc hunters in the wasteland prefer to pursue archery and tracking. In the wilderness, any camouflage will be fully revealed under the sky, and the orcs will also domesticate wild animals, but they are more inclined to large non-combat pets, such as domesticating thunder rhinoceros or Yagui beasts, the powerful hunter king can also Taming dragons, etc., Kurz told me that there are many real wolf hunters who like to go hunting with falcons, which can easily track the herd.But trapping has always been ranked at the bottom of hunter skills, even inferior to camouflage. Hunters in the wilderness don't like camouflage, but far away in the wild swamps and jungles in the south, the barbarians in the swamp country are Known for their beast taming and camouflage, the salty lizardfolk can even tame bulls and swamp wyverns.

Many hunters don't pay much attention to trapping, thinking that trapping is a low-level skill, and only low-level hunters will make some beast traps to help them hunt.Those beast clips weighing tens of catties are somewhat effective against ordinary beasts, but powerful monsters seem to be powerless.Even the lowest-level magic antelope among the monsters can escape by stepping on such a beast trap.What's more, such a bulky beast clip is not very convenient to carry, unless you can own a thunder rhino.

But generally speaking, the thoughts in the hearts of these female orcs on the wasteland are just staying in the ordinary animal traps that can only hunt some small animals, and usually require very careful maintenance, which is far less convenient and easy to carry than bows and arrows. .For these small bird traps, they even think that these are children's toys. The children in this tribe will have more than a dozen in their hands. A means of finding food to satisfy hunger.If not, Kurtz would not be able to collect hundreds of bird traps in a short period of time, otherwise he would not be able to form a three-meter-wide and 300-meter-long trap belt.

A group of us stood on the sandy hill, looking around, on the west side of the sandy hill on the north slope, there were more than [-] magic antelopes lying in disorder, most of their limbs were frostbitten to the same degree, and some of their bodies were covered with ice Wrapped, but just looking at their eyes, you can find that they have only lost their ability to move for a while, but their bodies have not suffered much damage.

The magical power of the frost scroll is still too weak. Although Qige deliberately reduced the proportion of Ningshen flower juice when configuring the milky white ink. Ningshen flower juice is a very effective stabilizer, but the more you add , it will make the power of the scroll smaller. In order to maximize the power of the scroll, when Qige configures the potion, within the range I can accept, the amount of Ningshen flower juice is reduced to the greatest extent, so that the power of the frost scroll increases. About ten percent, even so, to deal with the magic antelope with a certain magic resistance attribute, you can only freeze a pair of lamb legs.

In fact, the three-meter-wide trap belt is extremely narrow for the running magic antelope, and it can be jumped over with a light jump, but the bird trap is thrown in the weeds, and even if it is close, you have to look carefully. It can be clearly distinguished that for the galloping magic antelopes, the landing point of each jump already has a rough position. As long as one magic antelope steps into the trap, it will cause a chain reaction, leading to the surrounding area. The traps were stepped on one after another by the decelerated and stopped magic antelopes one after another. The power of a single frost scroll is only two meters square, and if the surrounding temperature is not too cold, the ice will easily melt, and the magic antelopes will resume their actions soon. ability.But if we detonate the frost scrolls one after another, lowering the temperature of the surrounding air from below zero to form an ice circle with a radius of more than ten meters. on the snow.

Kurz, who was running at the front, was so stimulated by the extreme cold that he shuddered. Standing outside the ice circle, he breathed out and instantly condensed into a cloud of white mist. It seemed that the temperature was lower than we thought.As early as when we were fighting the leader of the ligers, we discovered that the frost scrolls have the characteristic of superimposing magical effects. At that time, they only stepped on the traps intermittently, but now the magic antelopes detonated in a chain for more than [-] meters in the trap belt After the traps within the radius, the freezing effects are superimposed in an instant, and the power cannot be too small.

It's a pity that without the ice grass, even such an ice burst could not completely freeze the magic antelope.

Kuz held a mission ax in his hand, like an old farmer stepping into a cabbage field, and slashed at the neck of a magic antelope with his hand. Suddenly, a large opening more than a foot long was cut on the neck of the sheep, and the main artery It was cut open directly, and blood sprayed out more than two meters away.Seeing that Kurtz was extremely excited at this time, I swallowed the words in my mouth again. In fact, I wanted to say that there is no need for such bloody things.

Qige, who ran over from the other side, was so much more beautiful, and screamed directly: "Az, you bastard, you cut a big hole in my magic antelope paper, wouldn't you use a skinning knife to directly cut it into pieces?" Did it end up?"

"Hehe, I'm a little excited!" Kurz said excitedly, quickly hung the axe in his hand on his waist, pulled out a sharp bone-eviscerating knife from his thigh, and went straight to the next magic antelope.

I was worried that the ice and snow world created by magic would melt quickly, and those magic antelopes that were paralyzed on the ground regained their ability to move and fled, so Gerile and other beast girls who rushed to the edge of the ice circle shouted loudly. The orc said: "Hey, Sister Gerile, you bring people to help kill the sheep! Whoever kills the sheep, we will give her the four sheep's hooves with the calf..."

The orc girls on the field burst into flames all of a sudden, they pulled out the sharp boning knives on their thighs, and rushed towards the magic antelopes regardless of the cold.

The orc girls have never killed the magic antelope, but they have killed those ordinary gazelles. The magic antelopes are nothing more than stronger leather, but if they are stabbed with sharp knives at close range, no matter how solid the magic antelope skin is, it can't stop those sharp antelopes. The boning sharp knife.Qige, Katerina, I were standing on the edge of the field, and I helped Geriler count the number of sheep killed, and whoever killed the sheep would quickly mark the sheep's ears with a carving knife and pen. It was the first time I saw Gerile's sunny smile, like a sunflower in autumn.

Unexpectedly, this hunting would end in just one morning. The beast girls watched with some reluctance as the slaughtered magic antelopes were thrown onto the Yagui beast's back. Although the antelopes were not heavy, the 23 magic antelopes still caused Yagui Beast to scream miserably.

"Whoever is willing to carry the magic antelope back to the tribe, then we will give her the sheep's head with the magic core, um, and we can borrow our big iron pot to boil these sheep's heads and lamb legs..."

Needless to say, Yagui Beast's back was empty in an instant, and the Beastwoman who carried the least amount of her back also carried two magic antelopes on her shoulders.

I have to say that hunger will make everyone diligent.

"You... usually... catch sheep like this?" Gerile sat next to Kurz and turned to ask me.

I shook my head again and again, patted the shotgun on my back and said, "If the number is small, Az and I will use alloy bows and shotguns to deal with them. Only groups of magic antelope will do this."

I carefully took out a scroll of frost from my pocket, leaned forward and handed it to Gerile. She looked at me in astonishment, a little at a loss, not knowing what I was going to do, and stared at me blankly.

"I'll give you one to play with. You can also follow our example and put it on a bird trap to make a simple trap. This one can hunt the devil antelope. I'm afraid it can't be used by advanced monsters. The power of ice is not very strong. Enough." I said with a smile, and continued: "This thing is not worth much to us."

Gerile looked at the frost scroll in his hand with some surprise, his bronzed skin gleamed under the sunlight.

I leaned in Katerina's arms, squinting my eyes, sitting on Yagui Beast's back in such a warm afternoon, and walking in the warm spring breeze, it was really a kind of enjoyment.

After the threat of hunger was gone, the beast girls had happy smiles on their faces. When they looked at us, their eyes were not so contemptuous, but they became more awed, maybe not in awe of our real strength, but just in awe We have scrolls, but what does that matter!

...beautiful dividing line...

Three days later, we were going to cross the gorge of the Urutu River in the Yelian Mountains with the old orc Gribasqin. Everyone made the final rest at the mouth of the gorge. When the Urutu River came here, the water was no longer so It's cold, but due to the huge difference in terrain between the east and the west on the plateau, the water in this river is very fast. Even if a pebble the size of a washbasin is thrown into the river, it will be washed more than ten meters away.

The width of the river is only a dozen meters, and the strong orc warriors can cross the river directly without even taking a run-up, but it is impossible to ferry in such a turbulent river. There is a plank road made of pebbles on the east bank of the canyon. The road goes along the bank of the Ulutu River until it reaches the center of Yelian Mountain, and then separates from the Ulutu River at a sharp bend. The road will go up the mountain.At this point, large animals will not be able to go any further, because the mountain road is very narrow, even Yagui beasts can barely pass through.

These days, Qige hangs out with those female orcs all day long, and I don’t know what price Qige has spent. They seem to listen to Qige’s words very much. Miss Qi will always take this group of female orcs to collect in the wilderness. All kinds of magical herbs, gradually I found that the herbal package tied on the back of the Yagui beast was like a mountain.

Katerina returned to the way it was before, and she still likes to follow me so much. Even though I have recovered well now and don't have nightmares every night, she still pretends not to know and falls asleep with her arms around me.In the past few days, I don't know if Katerina's courage has increased, but her cooking skills have indeed improved a lot.
