Were the two little ones captured? Was Aflra truly unconcerned?
In fact, she was internally anxious, but she understood that this was not the time for reckless action. Her body was exhausted, and her combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. Acting rashly would only plunge her into greater danger. Therefore, she needed time to recover her strength.
After hastily treating Phoebe's wounds, Aflra lay down on the soft fur and fell into a deep sleep. Three hours later, she woke up with a wet face, as Phoebe was licking her face with her tongue. Gently pushing Phoebe's head away, Aflra comforted, "Don't worry, Kelly is fine."
With that, Aflra stood up and walked out of the tree hollow. The atmosphere outside was unusually tense, with a group of monkeys and the group of five facing a large number of kobolds, on the brink of conflict.
Seeing Aflra appear, the group of five breathed a sigh of relief. With her around, they were equivalent to having powerful firepower support.
"What's going on?" Aflra walked towards the group of five and asked.
Before James could answer, a cheer came from the kobold side. Several strong kobolds ran towards them, causing the monkeys to chatter in alarm. Mary was about to draw her bow and arrow, but Old Walker calmly stopped her: "Wait, they don't seem hostile."
Aflra saw clearly that these kobolds were coming for her. From their expressions, Aflra saw excitement and worship.
"Your Majesty, I am your loyal servant, Big Thumb," several strong kobolds groveled at Aflra's feet, and one of the strongest said in a strange common language, "This is Little Thumb, they are the Left Ear and Right Ear brothers, he is Red Nose, and he is Big Toe."
Aflra looked down at the kobold who had inexplicably pledged allegiance. He was about five feet tall, with a sturdy build, sharp and beautiful claws and teeth, green scales and white mane interspersed, snake-like pupils shining brightly. He wore armor made of iron plates and leather, with a pickaxe hanging from his waist and three javelins on his back. The other five kobolds were dressed similarly.
Since she didn't understand why they recognized her as their master, Aflra asked directly, "Why do you recognize me as your master?"
"My grandfather said so," Big Thumb explained, "Your Majesty instructed my grandfather before entering hibernation that if a lion occupied this place in the future, he would be our enemy. Later, a being who could control fire would come here, kill the lion, and become the king of White Tooth Mountain again, and that would be our master."
"Oh, I see," Aflra was sure in her heart that person was definitely not her. These pieces of information reminded her of Old Dragon Daniel, and she had no relationship with that old dragon. However, the younger siblings who came to the door were not received for nothing.
So Aflra said bluntly, "In that case, you follow me up the mountain and attack the dragon's lair together."
Immediately, the group of five showed joy, while several kobolds were stunned. Big Thumb wiped the sweat from his forehead and stammered, "Master... Master, they have a pack of wolves, a witch, and the lion is very powerful. We can't beat them."
Aflra sneered, it seems that their days are really not easy, the old dragon Daniel's dogs were suppressed into this appearance. But when it comes to Daniel, Aflra always feels a bit familiar, as if she has heard this name in a game, but she can't remember for a while.
"Talk about being my servant, but I can't see where you are like my servant." In the end, the kobolds reluctantly agreed to follow Aflra up the mountain.
The target is not the dragon's lair, but the kobold's camp - a huge abandoned mine. Kobolds are good at long-range fire raids in combat and are naturally skilled miners in life, good at mining. They like to live near mineral veins, especially iron ore, using the collected iron ore to make tools or trade for supplies. When there is no trading partner, they will go hunting in the mountains. Therefore, kobolds are considered one of the more human-friendly intelligent monsters.
Going to the kobold camp is to replenish equipment and call more people. Aflra looked at the old monkey with a smile on his face and suddenly said, "You come with us too."
The smile collapsed in an instant, and the old monkey didn't expect a disaster from the sky, and was stunned: "Well, it seems that it has nothing to do with us, right?"
"Why is it unrelated?" Aflra said, "It's time to avenge your three brothers!"
"But what if I drag you down..."
Aflra patted the old monkey on the shoulder and said, "Who told me to be helpful."
The old monkey was speechless, and the kobolds next to him were gloating. They didn't like this group of monkeys, it was because of them that the kobolds lost their dominant position.
Through the mountains and rivers, passing through the territory of the monkeys, soon saw the ground was wet. The kobold camp is located in the middle of the Wolf Tooth Mountain, and the temperature became cold. Aflra slightly operated the magic, and the magic of the "Fire Control Spell" rune imprint flowed around, and then felt the temperature around increased a lot.
As for the group of five, the experienced Old Walker had already prepared thick clothes for them. The old monkey and his little monkeys are not afraid of the cold, the body is rich in fire elements, the casting of flame magic is twice the result with half the effort, and can resist the cold. It's just because they were forcibly recruited by Aflra, and the monkeys were dejected.
In the dragon's lair, the wolf witch slowly walked down the stone throne and came to the two little guys. Aurora's eyes were red, and she looked like she was about to cry, constantly looking back, where Kelly was lying, panting heavily with bites all over her body. X blocked in front of Aurora, although he was trembling all over, he still stared at the wolf witch with a fierce look.
The wolf witch squatted down, ignoring X's fierce look, and instead reached out and grabbed his chin, lifting his head and examining him like livestock. "White and tender, it should be delicious."
This sentence made the two little guys fall into the ice cellar, X's legs softened and almost knelt down, and a layer of mist rose in Aurora's eyes.
Seeing the reaction of the two little guys, the wolf witch smiled with satisfaction and waved her hand: "Take these two little guys down and put them in the dungeon, remember, I want them to be alive."
These two little guys will be one of the chips to threaten the strange witch, although I don't know if it's useful, it's worth a try, anyway, the cost is not big.
