Chapter 566: Gryan Thorne
On the newly renovated training ground of Naxxramas, an elf is training with a group of human soldiers, and this elf is Arator. Although Aratar has the appearance of an elf, his father is Tulayan, the general of the kingdom of Aratho, and it is very easy for him to be accepted by the warriors of the kingdom of Aratho. It's not like the Blood Elves haven't thought of poaching Alator yet, but Leo has been watching closely, and Liadlin has not been able to succeed.
"Seventeen or eighteen years old is the age of yearning for blood and passion, and sweating along with my father's people is much more interesting than talking to you about obscure magic, Leah Delin, you can't compete with me."
Leo looked proud, and Lea Delin could only express his chagrin at this. The Blood Elf Countess had to admit her mistake, there were a lot of blood elves who were specially sent by her to contact Arator during this time, thinking that this would make Alator closer to the blood elves, but Liadlin ignored one thing, that is, the magic that had penetrated into the soul of the blood elves.
The blood elves who can't do without magic always unconsciously turn the topic to magic when they talk, and Arator is not interested in dry magic, so Arator naturally doesn't want to stay with the blood elves all the time.
On the other hand, Leo is different, his method of dealing with Arator is very simple, directly let Arator train with the soldiers, and let the energetic half-elves squander their physical strength with the warriors of the kingdom on the training ground, which is exactly what Arator wants, and the young half-elves quickly dissolve into this army that already has the prototype of the legion.
Bang!
A loud crash sounded, Leo, who was standing on the high platform at the entrance of the training ground and was talking to Liadlin, frowned, turned and walked in the direction where the sound came from, Liadlin followed, and the soldiers in the training ground looked at it strangely and continued to do their own thing with curiosity under the scolding of the instructors.
A rock giant about the height of a war fortress was struggling hard, and the size of this rock giant showed that he was very powerful, and it was not easy to restrain him. Elsewhere his struggles would have been extremely tricky, but it was Pellision and HΓ©ctor who had no choice but to make the move, and the rock giant's struggles were in vain.
"What's going on?"
It was very strange to see that the two most powerful dragon lichs under his command had actually captured a rock giant and came back without saying a word, he had never given such an order.
"Master, this stinky stone was asked by Gotik to be brought back, and he said it would be of great help to the Summoner Legion."
The Giants, who are naturally hostile to dragons, will not please the dragons, and Pellision answers Leo's question while working with Ectoz to suppress the rock giant.
After taking a closer look at the struggling rock giant, Leo really didn't see how much help this guy would do to the Summoner Legion. Fortunately, Gotick arrived in a hurry at this time, and Leo's doubts were answered.
"Master, please wait."
Facing Leo's puzzled gaze, Gotik took out his staff and fired three arcane missiles at the rock giant's body.
Bang!
The rock giant, whose body had been partially knocked out by the arcane missile, struggled hard, but unfortunately his strength was no match for Pellision and Hectoz, and he was still a suppressed life.
A rock the size of a soccer ball lands on the ground, which Gotik has forced down from the rock giant with an arcane missile, and that's when something wonderful happens.
The moment the rock hit the ground, limbs grew, and a miniature version of the rock giant was born.
"Oh, that's amazing." Leo looked at the little rock giant with interest, and then his eyes changed, "Huh? This little guy has no soul! β
As a powerful warlock, Leo is very sensitive to soul fluctuations, and he can see at a glance whether the small rock giant transformed from the rock that fell off the body of the big rock giant has a soul or not.
A soulless rock man...... Leo rubbed his chin, he knew what Gotik was trying to do.
"Is it sturdy enough?"
A brainless question, Leadlin couldn't figure it out, but Gotik could understand.
"I've already tried it, and the material on this rock giant is comparable to fine iron, and if you use them instead of metal golems, it will not only save time and effort, but also be very convenient."
Leo stretched out his hand and grabbed the little rock giant with a death grip, the powerful magic restrained the poor little thing so that he couldn't move a finger, and after touching the body of the little rock giant with his own hands, Leo nodded with satisfaction, which was an affirmation of Gotic.
"This little guy has the strength of a high-level warrior, although he has no skills and combat experience, but it is no problem to defeat a mid-level warrior in a single challenge, can he make it in large quantities?"
The little rock giants split from the rock giant's body could not have combat skills and experience, they would only attack by instinct, which made it impossible for them to defeat their peers and only bully opponents who were lower than their rank. However, these are not the point, the focus is on whether it can be mass-produced, and many things will change qualitatively once they reach a certain number and form a scale.
Due to the fact that the little rock giant has no soul, this body can be taken away by the soul, combined with Leo's previous intention to ask Pellision and Ektoz to ask for Pelicion and Ectoz to give a shot in Gotic's Book of the Dead, he wants to use the rock man instead of the metal golem to provide new summons for the warlocks of the summoner legion.
"There are no problems, as long as we have enough rocks."
The Rock Giant will not grow on its own after losing a part of its body, and must be replenished by ingesting rocks from the outside world, in other words, as long as you don't kill the Rock Giant and provide him with enough rocks, it doesn't matter how many pieces of rubble you knock down on him.
"How many of these rock giants are there?"
Leo is not concerned with the question of whether the rock giants are willing to replenish with rocks after their bodies are knocked out, because this is the problem that Gotik needs to solve, he is now concerned about the number of stone people that can produce soulless rock people, if there is only this one or the number is too small, then the production of soulless rock people will be limited.
"Don't worry, master, these rock people exist as a race." Gotik said as he took out a map, which was drawn by the Fort Glory Expeditionary Force, which contained the information they had gained from years of exploration of this world, "These rock people are distributed in the western part of the Hellfire Peninsula, just at the junction of the Hellfire Peninsula and the Zangar Swamp, and they usually feed on the land of the Hellfire Peninsula, and the number should be about three hundred. β
The hardness of the land on the Hellfire Peninsula that still exists after the explosion of the Draenor World is comparable to that of magic iron, to be precise, it already belongs to the range of stones, and the rock giants choose to live on the Hellfire Peninsula because they don't have to worry about food living here, and no one usually provokes them, the lives of these stone people can be described as extremely nourishing, but they never expected that Leo would appear.
Three hundred rock giants, which is quite a lot.
Leo waved his hand at Gotick and said, "Catch them all." β
As the saying goes, the puppet is innocent and guilty, and they are rock giants who live a good life, because their ability to split the soulless rock people was targeted by Gotic, and they were doomed to the miserable life of their clan in the future. This is a world where the strong are respected, and the weak are not only not able to speak, but also their own safety is not guaranteed.
"Master, let me go, I'll make sure you catch all these stinky stones if you don't have any left."
Dragonakos stepped forward, the Twilight Dragon's failure to destroy the Legion portal held him back, and now that there was a fight against the rock giants, who were born to be at odds with dragons, he immediately came out to fight.
"Hmm!" Leo nodded slowly, he knew that the Twilight Dragon was looking for someone to vent his desire to fight, but he couldn't catch all the three hundred rocks on his own, especially since these rock giants still had to live, "Pellision, Ektoz bring some people to accompany Nakos. β
"Wait."
At that moment, the rock giant, who had not spoken, spoke.
"You know our language!"
Glian Thorne was shocked when he said this, and Leah Delin was also very strange, if this was a rock giant from the native plane, it would not be strange that he knew the lingua franca of humans, but this rock giant is a creature of the world of Draenor, and it is surprising that he can speak the human language.
"Don't be surprised, my people have been in contact with you, and a human named Khadgar has taught me your language in order to communicate with us."
"I see." Leo nodded, then asked the rock giant, "What are you going to do when you stop me?" β
"I am Grien Thorne, king of the rock giants. I know that you are powerful and that my people will not be able to fight you, but I do not want my people to perish because of this, so I will exchange a secret with you. β
Grion Thorne is the king of the Rock Giants of the Hellfire Peninsula, his strength is the most powerful of the rock giants, but he doesn't even have a chance to escape in the face of the attacks of Pellision and Ectoz, and after hearing Leo say that he wants to capture all his people, Grion Thorne already knows that if he really lets the other party pass, his own clan will not be able to resist at all.
As the king of a race, can Grian Thorne watch his people being captured like this?
Between the survival of the race and some secret, the Giants of the Hellfire Peninsula chose the former, and he called out to Leo.
I didn't expect to catch a rock giant king, no wonder this big guy still has the ability to struggle under the suppression of Pellision and Ectoz.
Leo held his chin, curious about the secret in Grien's Thorne.
"Let's hear it and see if it can make me change my mind."
