Mage Joan

Chapter 53: Assa Hunting

Joan didn't realize how fast he ran before. After hearing Dick and Roger say that it only took him less than three minutes to run from the river to the mouth of the town, it was twice as fast as usual. Qiao An moved his heart, guessing that it was mostly the function of "sports belt", which increased the running speed and also increased the endurance. He ran for thousands of yards without feeling tired.

"Probably because I was wearing a commoner, but you were wearing armor." Joan didn't want to reveal the secret of the "sports belt" and casually found a reason.

"This is also true." Dick didn't think about it, and he changed the subject happily. "Let's go to the barracks to get the weapon, and we will ask the Flint instructor to find out what happened."

Joan is not an active militia, so it is reasonable not to go to the military camp to gather, but out of curiosity and worry, he still followed the Dindal brothers to the meeting point.

The "Militia Convention" enacted by the Delin Town Council stipulates that active-duty militiamen can receive a pair of leather armor, a shield, and a weapon at the expense of the town government finance department. Correspondingly, the militia must fulfill the mission of defending their homeland and compatriots when the town is attacked by beasts or foreign enemies. In a non-war state, the militia can take home armor and shields for safekeeping, and the weapons are kept in the military barracks for unified storage, and then go to the military barracks for collection when needed. This provision was set up to prevent militia fighting with weapons, and it did have the effect expected by lawmakers.

Joan had no weapons to lead and ran directly to the Militia Commander Flint Anvil. After a round of inquiry, I learned that the old dwarf was now on the sentry tower and was observing the movement outside the town through a binoculars.

Joan ran to the tower and looked up at the top to shout Flint. The old dwarf moved away from the telescope and leaned down to look at him, his mouth almost covered by his beard grinning wide.

"Today the sun really came out west, and our little mage came to join the militia!"

Joan was slightly embarrassed and shouted: "Mr. Flint, what happened?"

"What are you talking about? I can't hear clearly. If you want to know what happened, climb up and see for yourself!" the old dwarf replied loudly.

Joan shook his head helplessly and had to help the bamboo ladder to climb up the sentry tower. Every step on the stairs felt trembling underneath. The bamboo-wood sentry tower looked so fragile. Joan wondered whether the sentry tower could support the second person after bearing an old dwarf in full armor. body weight. Fortunately, the "sports belt" greatly improved his climbing skills. He quickly climbed to the top of the tower along the trembling bamboo ladder without changing his face and heart.

"Good, little one, the monkey can't climb faster than you." Flint Anvil smiled and reached for Joan to the top of the observation deck, and then handed him the telescope again, "Look, Don't be scared."

Joan held the brass-covered telescope with both hands and looked out of the town through the lens barrel. He soon saw a group of riders gather at the entrance of the town, about forty or fifty riders, pointing in the direction of the outpost , Talking in a low voice.

The riders outside the town all look human, but the costumes are very different from the local townspeople. Most of them wear animal skin tanned clothes, dressed in a large cloak of whole wolf skin or even bear skin, all oblique back long bow, hanging waist The sword, mostly painted with black stripes on the face, showed a brave and aggressive attitude.

The two knights headed are the most striking. One of them is a tall, thin, middle-aged man with a dignified look and a dark green cloak. The hem and back of the cloak are embroidered with prominent emblems-like many golden wheat ears forming a circle. Next to the man in the green robe is a female knight in tight leather armor, with a long bow on her back, and a pair of scimitars around her waist, looking like a ranger, about thirty-seven or seventy years old, linen Long hair was tied into a bunch of ponytails, and her pretty face made Joan feel inexplicably familiar. What surprised him even more was the mount of the green-robed man and the female ranger-they were not riding horses, but dinosaurs walking on two feet and wearing saddles!

The shoulder height of the two dinosaurs is larger than that of the warhorse beside them. They have huge lizard-like heads and slender necks, full of sharp teeth, gray scales on the back, and yellow stripes on the abdomen, with a thick tail and a strong hind limb Support the tall and strong body and the master on the back. Compared with the muscular hind limbs, the dinosaur forelimbs appeared short at first glance. In fact, they were thicker than the thighs of adult men. The forelimbs differentiated into three toe claws. From a distance, they looked like the same row of sickles. This pair of sharp but flexible front claws can easily catch the prey, and instantly open the opponent's chest to remove the hot internal organs.

"Mr. Flint, are those tall monsters outside the town ‘Dreadclaw Dragon’?” Joan asked the old dwarf.

"Yes, the Asa men and women are riding the Dreadclaw, the fiercest predator in the deep jungle of Yalv." Flint Anvil stroked his beard and said with a heavy face: " Dreadclaws are not as easy to tame as cattle and horses. Only high-level druids or rangers can control such beasts.

"Asa?" Qiao An stunned, "You mean that the group of riders outside the town are Asa?"

"It's not obvious." The old dwarf shrugged. "Look at their weird costumes and looks. They must have been Assa hunters from the depths of the jungle. And nine out of ten belong to the Algonquin tribe-- After all, this is the closest Assa tribe to the town of Delin."

"The Algonquin tribe!" Joan immediately thought of Kandy, she was born in this tribe.

"It's really weird to say that our Delin town and the Algonquin tribe have always been well-fed, not guilty of river water. This barbaric aboriginal group doesn't want to play birds in the woods. What did he want to do when he came here far and wide?" The old dwarf Stroking his chin and muttering, "Unless they are all mad, they will never think that their mere manpower is enough to sack Delin Town, which has no fewer than 200 elite militiamen."

Joan said nothing in silence. It seems faintly that the Algonquins are not malicious about Delin Town as Flint guessed. The reason why they suddenly appeared outside the town is probably related to Kandy. Thinking about it this way, Joan took a piece of copper wire from his pocket and cast a ring 0 "messaging technique" on the sentry tower to inform Kandy of what he saw and heard.

"The riders outside the town are all my people, and it is my parents who rode the Dreadclaw." Kandy quickly sent back the message, and there was unshakable joy in his voice. "Don't worry, Mr. and I will immediately That's it! By the way, Mr. Tell knows my parents. The three of them seem to be old friends!"
