Any high-level professional can be understood as superhuman.
Professional level 10 and above basically mastered one or two kinds of supernatural abilities. For example, the druid just now had some kind of spell blessed on her body, so she was able to leap through the big trees. Sauron is not too curious to catch up. It is normal to meet strangers in the wilderness. Some people will communicate with each other for a short time, but most of them just pass by. As long as the other party is not malicious, the two sides can nod at most. .
Druids don't like to communicate with ordinary people, even professionals don't like it very much.
They are withdrawn and have their own pursuits. Most of them have firm beliefs, and their behavior is neutral. Sometimes they will attack anyone.
Balance is higher than good and evil in their eyes, because they believe that good and evil in the world are relative.
This is a group of people who are very similar to the Taoists who advocate 'inaction', but their aggressiveness is not weak at all. Many people who excessively destroy the nature of the forest will be executed mercilessly by them!
There was a period of human alchemy research, mainly because of the discovery of a relic from the period of the Arcane Empire, from which many wizards discovered high-end alchemy knowledge, and even once researched a construction machinery factory. But the pollution produced by fel alchemy destroyed water sources and polluted the earth, killing animals and destroying forests. This incident finally led to the fury of the druid community in the whole world. A terrible storm and lightning enveloped the entire new alchemy city, and finally everything was reduced to ashes!
There are not many records left of that battle.
All I know is that the Druids defeated the Iron Golem Legion, and more than ten legendary Druids fought at the same time, including even the extremely powerful Storm Lord.
The wizards suffered heavy losses in this battle, one legendary wizard died, and two legendary wizards were forced to transform into liches.
Research on magic alchemy has also become a taboo.
In order to appease these furious druids, the church of the human world has also begun to increase the restrictions on magic alchemy, because the river where the alchemy city was built is now full of black pollutants, and the nearby land is not Suitable for human survival, metal poisoning will occur after drinking water. The druids stubbornly believe that this kind of evil alchemy research will eventually completely destroy nature, cause irreparable damage to the environment, and finally bring disaster to the whole world!
so.
Even for dwarves and gnomes, some alchemical research is still carried out secretly.
Most of the wizards are not right with the druids, because a lot of their academic research is opposed and rejected by the druids, and even now there are still druids hiding in the dark to monitor the actions of the wizards and prevent them from conducting research. Certain horrific experiments that cause large-scale natural disasters, and sometimes they also deal with plagues and diseases spread by the Fallen.
…
Sauron walked back along the road.
Soon he saw the village he had seen at the beginning. Torches were lit on all sides of the village, and the defense of the watchtower could be vaguely seen.
"Who?" A burly man shouted down.
The figure of Sauron came out of the night. He raised his hands to show that he was not holding a weapon, and then said: "Human. A traveling adventurer."
"I just encountered a group of kobolds, and I suffered a little injury. I hope to rest here for a night."
After seeing Sauron's appearance clearly, the people on the sentry tower relaxed a little. He shouted down, and soon a man in leather armor appeared, who seemed to be the captain of the militia here. It was a bearded man, estimated to be in his thirties or forties, he frowned and looked at Sauron, and asked, "Are you alone?"
"A person is not suitable for activities in the wilderness."
This is a former adventurer. He obviously has a lot of experience. Although he has judged Sauron's occupation, he is still full of vigilance.
"It's just me." Sauron put down his hands and replied, "I hope to exercise my ability and look for further possibilities."
"So I am alone in the wilderness."
The militia captain hesitated for a moment, then beckoned others to open the gate of the village, and continued, "You can rest here for the night, but I hope you won't cause us any trouble."
"There won't be any trouble." Sauron smiled and said in a deep voice, "I will leave tomorrow to hunt the nearby monsters."
"If possible, I hope you can tell me the distribution of monsters nearby."
Creatures in the wilderness would not stay in one place obediently, and only the nearby aborigines knew the scope of their activities, so it was very important to venture into the wild to find out news, and sometimes it could save a lot of trouble. The heavy gate of the village opened slowly, and five or six adult men stood nearby with weapons in their hands. They were still looking at Sauron vigilantly. Seeing that he hadn't moved after entering, they were a little relieved.
The captain of the militia climbed down from the archery tower. He looked Sauron up and down, his eyes fell on the wound he was bandaging, and then said: "It's rare to see a lone adventurer like you. I didn't expect a wanderer to be like a warrior Practice alone like a monk.”
Sauron smiled, but did not answer the question.
The captain of the militia beckoned to his companions, then pointed aside and said, "Stranger. We can't fully trust you yet. So no one will take you in overnight. There is a woodshed for storing straw. If you don't mind If so, you can spend the night there, and I will send you some hot soup and food."
Sauron nodded gently, leaned slightly and said, "Thank you very much. I just need a place where I can sleep in peace. After all, it is easy to be attacked by those monsters in the wilderness."
The militia captain nodded and beckoned a young man to lead him there.
After Sauron left, an adult man next to him said, "Captain? There's nothing wrong with him, right? He's a stranger after all."
"There should be no problem." The militia captain glanced behind and whispered: "I will go over to test him later to see if he really killed a group of kobolds. Recently, the neighborhood has become more and more unsafe. If Someone can clean up some monsters, and we'll have a lot less stress."
The wilderness is dangerous.
Although they established a village here to avoid a lot of taxes, they also had to face a lot of trouble.
soon.
The militia captain came with two people.
Sauron lay down on the soft thatch to rest, re-bandaged the wound on his leg and changed the dressing, and the wound there was almost recovered. There shouldn't be any problems tomorrow, and it won't affect his next battle. The armed force of this village is not weak. Sauron saw several warriors around the second rank, and experienced adventurers should have been born among them. The other party brought him hot soup, dry and hard bread, and a little pickle.
It was a chubby girl with freckles on her face. She looked at Sauron curiously, and she blushed a little when she saw his handsome appearance. She looked like a very simple rural girl. She seemed to really want to stay and listen to what they had to say, but after being glared at by the militia captain, she went back to sleep obediently, and looked back at Sauron before leaving. For such young people, adventurers can always arouse their curiosity.
Sauron thanked softly, then took a sip of the hot soup, which contained mushrooms and vegetables, and the bread needed to be soaked in it.
Eating too much dry food is naturally uncomfortable.
While eating, he answered the other party's obviously questioning and probing words, which is not surprising, after all, he is a stranger.
"You mean you killed a whole bunch of kobolds?"
A young man next to him showed a skeptical expression, as if he didn't believe that Sauron had such strength.
He was not interested in explaining either. He reached out and pulled out the machete with a wave, and the piece of wood next to him was instantly cut into four pieces of similar size. Now the young man finally shut up, looking at him with a hint of respect. Sauron consumed a lot of physical energy, he finished the thick soup and bread, and chewed a little dried meat before he stood up and said, "I want to know the distribution of monsters nearby, I wonder if you can provide me with some information? "
The militia captain had let go of his doubts, nodded and said, "No problem."
"There are quite a few monsters running out here, and we always hope that someone can deal with them. You can come here to rest at any time in the future, and I will have someone prepare food and a place to sleep for you."
"Forehead."
"It's very late today. If you don't mind, you can go to my house to sleep overnight. In two days, I will ask someone to vacate a room for you."
Sauron smiled and shook his head in refusal, patted the haystack and said, "No need. It's fine here. I'm used to it."
"Now tell me the distribution of monsters."
