Chapter 135: The Pale Giant
The closer it approached the haunted gold mine, a faint feeling of anxiety rose in Ge Long's heart. He stopped and looked ahead. Not far away was a simple fence woven with hardwood and rattan. Although he followed the usual style of goblin merchants, the wall was made of some cheap materials that were made of locally sourced, but the height of more than four meters and the thickness of forty centimeters was barely reasonable, and it had also been fire-proofed to a certain extent.
A 15-meter-high wooden watchtower tower is built every 100 meters away. It can exert good battlefield suppression after being equipped with long-range combat units.* As for a commercial gold mine, such defense measures have been very standard, which is enough to make most robbers sigh in the sight of the railings. In addition, there are young soldiers of the Black Hand Ogre tribe garrisons. None of the big and small forces within the Low Tide Port have the ability to attack from the front except for the Investigation Corps.
However, what happened to Gelon's eyes at this moment was a battlefield of black smoke... Someone was attacking here. In the thick smoke, Gelon vaguely saw a black black flag fluttering in the wind. The white skeletons and crossed human thigh bones depicted on it indicate the identity of these attackers... "Pirates".
As a small coastal town, Luochao Port has never lacked pirates. Sometimes they live in Luochao Port as merchants, consumers, travelers, clients, and drinkers. In this case, they are generally safe. Not only that, they will also make considerable contributions to the economic prosperity of Luochao Port. But if they visit Luochao Port as their "profession"... that is, "pirates", it will be a devastating disaster.
In the short history after the establishment of Luochao Port, there were almost no count of large-scale attacks and lootings by pirates, and even the records of razing the entire port to the ground were recorded twice. In some ways, pirates were more terrifying than the alien robbers entrenched in the Rain Forest of Haishi Bay. At least those subhuman and humanoids rarely walked out of the rainforest and attacked cities. It was not until in recent years that the prosperous economy of Luochao Port attracted a large number of mercenary groups, magician guilds, thieves guilds, and hunters' houses that the pirates began to gradually converge. There have been few large-scale robberies in recent years. Unexpectedly, Goron would actually see the negative characters that often appear in these stories here.
The shouts of killing still did not stop, and the ogre's unique thick and wild roars resounded through the sky from time to time. This also calmed down Ge Long a little, at least his tribe was still fighting, and he might not have come too late.
After getting closer to a distance, Goron finally clearly saw both sides fighting. Among them, the siege was holding the pirate flag high. The mysterious army in black robes, with a total of about hundreds of people. It looked like they had a complete range of professions. Some were responsible for attacking the fence from the front, and some were responsible for suppressing bows and arrows from a distance. Goron vaguely saw the figures of combat mages and healing priests. These people were in an orderly manner, and each of them fought silently, making almost no sound.
And their opponents are a group of ogre boy warriors wearing heavy armor and roaring continuously, and... a group of women wearing gorgeous and sexy costumes and unique combat styles... old street prostitutes/women.

Ge Long leaned down as low as possible and rushed towards a pile of rocks not far away. Suddenly, an extremely dangerous feeling came to his face, rubbing against Ge Long's skin as sharp as a blade. Ge Long knew that his whereabouts must have been discovered, so he suddenly moved, turned his hand and turned his elbow and smashed it backwards. A bright blood flower suddenly appeared in the empty air. At the same time, a sharp dagger that even the sharp blade exuded, stabbed his back.
The person who attacked Goron was a dark walker. After being attacked by Goron, he was forced to leave from his stealth state and emerged from his true body. This was a short man with a black robe. His cold and cruel eyes were impressive. He raised his hand to wipe off the dirty blood on the corner of his mouth, then slapped his mouth a few times, and spit out three bloody teeth in his spit. The eyes he looked at Goron again suddenly became even more resentful.
The man raised the dagger and looked at the blood on the tip of his knife, and suddenly sneered: "I didn't expect that a dirty little beggar could find my whereabouts. It seems that your identity should not be simple, but... you are unlucky. If you are hit by my secret poison, you will be paralyzed and unable to move. Don't worry, I won't kill you immediately. It's boring to let go of the wind outside, so I will make full use of you to relieve my boredom..."
Before the short man finished speaking, Ge Long had already fallen down. The short man sneered, took out two flying knives and threw them directly on Ge Long. He saw that the dirty boy covered in mud had no reaction before leaning over and preparing to use a dagger to break his tendons.
The short man is undoubtedly a cautious guy, but he is wrong. From the beginning, he measured the thin boy in front of him by the standards of "humanity". So the dirty boy who was originally lying on the ground and should have been severely injured by "severe poison" and "sword wounds" suddenly exploded. When he strangled his neck with his slender but indescribable arm, he still couldn't believe it.
"Where is my poison? Why is it not effective? And I have obviously stabbed him!"
As Ge Long's body moved, the two flying knives that should have been deeply inserted into his body were squeezed out by the muscles, leaving only tiny wounds like nails scratching the ogre boy... The short man who swept this scene from the corner of his eyes instantly knew that he had hit a hard character who was playing a pig and eating a tiger, and now he fell.
Goron's arms slowly tightened, and his body, which was fully racially talented, completely ignored the short man and made the final struggle to resist. Whether it was his dagger, poison, sinister technique, in front of the ogres who were immune to steel and various toxins, it was as powerless and ridiculous as a young child facing an adult.
Goron pressed the two of them tightly into the dense grass, his mouth against the short man's ear. He asked in a low voice, "Tell me, who are you? Why are you attacking this gold mine? You'd better answer quickly. My patience is limited, and don't try to summon companions, I can break your neck at any time."
This is the question that Goron wants to know the most. Although he already knew that the attacker should be a pirate from Haishiwan, he was still a little confused and suspicious. He could know the answer from the dark walker who he had delivered to the door. But Goron was immediately disappointed. His body suddenly twitched violently, and then gradually became cold and stiff. There was no more movement. Goron frowned and let go of his arm, checking his captives. Sure enough, the guy's eyes were wide open. Black and sticky blood flowed out of his orifices. He actually committed suicide by using a special method.
This is by no means the pirate's behavior!
Geron calmly turned the short man's head around his neck a few times, and almost twisted it down. In this way, even if he used the secret method to pretend to be dead, he would have to become a headless zombie if he wanted to be resurrected. Then Geron tore open the black robe on his body, and indeed, what was hidden below was a set of high-quality and excellent leather armor. On the chest of the leather armor, it should have been the position of the identity emblem. There was only a new blank trace.
He casually stripped off the man's leather armor and checked his body. Goron found that he was actually very clean, and even some of his body hair had been carefully treated...
After examining the corpse with the eyes of an ogre chef, Goron was finally completely sure that this person would definitely not be a pirate.
Whether in the story or the fresh pirate captives caught by the black-handed ogre, the deepest impression these guys left on Goron is sloppy and dirty. It is completely different from the "primitive and bold" filth of ogres. The filth of pirates is completely rich in "sea characteristics", and even ogres can't bear it. Those who wear gorgeous clothes peeled from dead people may not be washed once every few years, and their bodies are also their clothes.
Likewise, the long-term lack of fresh water has caused these cruel sea men to smell like dead fish and rotten shrimps. Sludge and rotten sores are spread all over their skin. Even ogres will feel disgusted and difficult to swallow. These famous features have nothing in common with the short man strangled by Goron. In fact, he has nothing like a pirate except the brand new skeleton mark on the cloak outside his leather armor.
Goron already knew that the people who attacked the haunted gold mine must have been unwilling to reveal their identities for some reason, which also shows that they are more terrifying than real pirates, because the pirates' goals are at least clear. What worries Goron even more is that this man faintly smells of "noble". And on the Dota Continent, anything that has something to do with the world's nobles is almost not a good thing.
Thinking of this, Goron took out a mask from the tattoo and put it in his hand for later use. This was the voodoo mask he got from his Centaurus Girlfriend, Yalta Thunder. He had been placing it in the tattoo before and carried it with him. Goron's hidden life may be related to the nobles. If possible, he tried not to expose his identity in front of the nobles. This mask might be useful in a while. But vaguely, Goron felt that this mask seemed to have some changes, as if it was a little different from before...
At this moment, a huge roar suddenly came from not far away. Ge Long didn't care about studying the mask in his hand, and hurriedly poked his head out and saw a piece of fence not far away collapsed under the bombardment of the magician's fireball technique and the towering whistle tower behind him.
Before, two hot girls in sexy leather suits were standing on the hood, holding a dwarf musket, shooting downwards. Although they were not buried directly in the collapsed watchtower due to luck, the situation was not optimistic. One of the women's thighs were pressed by a broken wood, and they screamed and struggled but could not get out, while the other woman dropped the musket and tried to pull it out... Although the women in the old streets were brave and loyal, well-trained, and fearless in battle, they could not change their natural physical defects as women, especially in terms of strength, and often encountered helplessness. For example, the broken wood in front of them could make them helpless.
Three men in black robe holding spears grinned and stepped over the burnt fence wreckage toward the two women. The point of the spear tip was the women's cheeks and towering chests. The women in the old street had given up struggling and resisting, just staring at the enemy with unretreated resentment. They were about to die on the spot in the next moment. At this moment, with a loud roar, an ogre boy suddenly rushed over, waved the oversized musket with all ammunition in his hand, sweeping the three spearmen into the air. Then he turned around and lifted the giant wood pressing on the woman's legs, but before they could evacuate from the collapsed fence, a fireball exploded in the ogre boy's vest.
This is a "added" fireball with multiple super magic effects. Even an ogre who is born with magic resistance can cause a huge killing effect. The ogre boy has long been exhausted in the previous battle. This fireball is like the last straw that crushed the camel. He let out a weak scream, his huge body fell forward, and he lay on the ground and dying.
The two women lay on him and shook wildly, trying to awaken his consciousness of gradually moving away, and then tried to pull the fat and heavy body of the ogre boy to escape. In the eyes of the black-robed men, this scene was like a boring and ridiculous farce, the ogre... prostitute // woman... These two things that everyone on the continent can despise and contempt and insult, and they will join forces on the battlefield, and also stage such a "tragic" mutual rescue plot. This is simply an insult to the "real" warriors and the "real" battlefield. This evil gold mine, together with all the creatures entrenched in this gold mine, is the most damn blasphemer, and the garbage that must be cleaned up.
Just as the man in black was about to step over the fence and completely eliminate the "dirty things" inside, a shocking roar suddenly came from the rear of the battlefield, and then a huge pale figure rushed into the battlefield...
It was a nearly majestic and sturdy figure. He had pale skin like bones, ivory, and marble-like cold and hard skin. His body with a muscle of more than three meters high and a tangled body can be classified as a "giant". His swelling and split muscles emitted wild and violent power, and his whole body was like the sculpture of the fighting posture of the God of War Kratos placed in the Temple of the God of War.
But the most impressive thing is the head of this giant...
He had a simple and hideous voodoo mask on his face. He could only see his unreasonable, crazy and bloodthirsty eyes, and bloody mouths covered with fangs from the gaps of the wooden mask. The pale giant's red hair, more than one meter long, shined with bloody light, and was dancing like burning flames.
This is not a human, it is simply a bloodthirsty beast.
The appearance of the "giant" made the battlefield silent. Everyone... The young warrior of the black-handed ogre, the women in the old street, including those black-robed men with mysterious origins and hidden identities, were all staring at the figure of the giant with surprise and horror. They couldn't figure out why monsters like this suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and...
Which side is he standing on? (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
