Chapter 389: Kobolds and Centaurs

Chapter 389: Chapter 389 – Kobolds and Centaurs

“King Kalimu will remain in that position for a few more years. He will only step down when the time is right…”

Chen Heng sat in his original position and looked at Guluo Mary before him. His expression was calm as he finally spoke.

“After that, the Karo royal family will become an ordinary Duke family.”

“It won’t be the Karo royal family anymore…” He looked at Guluo Mary and said.

“An ordinary Duke family, huh…”

Guluo Mary nodded as she listened to Chen Heng’s words. She sighed in relief.

To her, the outcome before her was pretty good.

Now that things had developed to such an extent, it would be extremely dangerous for the Karo family to maintain its past glory and continue serving as Karo Kingdom’s royal family.

Their strength wasn’t that great, and after the incident with Kalimu, even the little bit of strength left in the family had been buried. Their powers were left little to nothing at all.

Being the royal family in this situation wouldn’t benefit them even if nothing happened.

If the person sitting in front of her wasn’t Chen Heng but someone else, then the entire Karo royal family would probably be massacred.

After all, no matter what, they were the royal family of the past and had a lofty prestige within the Karo Kingdom, and this prestige was the hidden threat.

It was only because Chen Heng was powerful enough that he didn’t care about these threats. They would have wiped out the entire Karo royal family sooner or later to eliminate their influence if it were anyone else.

This wasn’t anything strange. The Caro family had done similar things in the past, so there was nothing strange about it.

Therefore, at this moment, Guluo Mary was very satisfied with the final outcome of the Karo family.

No matter what, the Karo family still existed, and they could still retain the title of Duke within the kingdom. There was a possibility of revival when the time was right in the future.

This title was enough for the current Karo family to survive.

“As for you, what plans do you have for the future?”

In front of him, Chen Heng raised his head and looked at Guluo Mary, “In my plan, you will be Karo Kingdom’s future Duke.”

“I…”

Hearing Chen Heng’s words, Guluo Mary was stunned. She had never thought of this before.

The rules of this world generally allowed women to inherit the title of nobility. Still, most of them would only appear when there were no other direct successors in their family.

And within the Karo family, at this moment, many of Guluo Mary’s brothers were still alive.

According to Guluo Mary’s thoughts, the title of nobility that belonged to the Karo family shouldn’t have fallen on her.

However, feeling Chen Heng’s gaze, Guluo Mary quickly reacted. She had fallen into a state of habitual thinking.

Under normal circumstances, she naturally did not have the qualifications to inherit titles from the Karo family. However, this was clearly not a normal situation.

At the moment, to put it bluntly, the survival of the entire Karo family depended on Chen Heng’s thoughts.

Therefore, whoever he wanted to inherit the Karo family would naturally inherit it.

As for Guluo Mary’s brothers, were they still important at this time?

It would be fine if they knew what was good for them, but if they didn’t, they would probably die before they could do anything.

Thinking of this, Guluo Mary came to her senses and revealed a bitter smile.

“Alright then.”

Looking at Guluo Mary’s response, Chen Heng smiled and said, “No matter what, you have been a great help to me.”

“If it weren’t for you, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly this time.”

“The title of nobility in the Karo family is your reward.”

“As for the future, if you have the chance, there’ll be more rewards up for grabs…”

“It’s even possible to establish a new Karo Kingdom…”

He looked at Guluo Mary and said meaningfully.

Guluo Mary’s eyes instantly lit up as soon as he finished speaking.

This time, the matter had come to an end. In the following period, the peace within the Karo Kingdom was gradually restored.

The remnants of the Dusk Cult quickly fled the country after all their nasty actions toward the country, as they were afraid of Chen Heng coming for them.

To a certain extent, their actions have severely damaged its strength. However, for Chen Heng, it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Because of the actions of the Dusk Cult, a large number of noble families had died, and many senior and influential families had been directly uprooted. They were sent to the blood sacrifice by the Dusk Cult to recover their strength.

These people were initially Chen Heng’s anticipated enemies for the next stage. Now, before he had even made a move, the Dusk Cult had already taken the initiative to help him sort out the entire Karo kingdom.

This had saved him a portion of his strength and was a blessing in disguise.

And after this, the power that belonged to Chen Heng will gradually grow.

However, overall, the situation in the Karo kingdom was still relatively calm. Under Chen Heng’s efforts, it gradually calmed down.

And at this moment, on the other side, a battle was beginning in the desert.

Spilled blood dyed the desert plain into a red carpet. Two different races fought on the plain, killing each other with bloodshot eyes.

If one looked closely, one could see that the two sides fighting weren’t ordinary humans but Outlander races.

The side with the most numbers was a group of Kobolds wearing simple leather armor.

Different from the ordinary Kobolds in the wild, this group of Kobolds seemed to have undergone some sort of training. Not only were they larger in size, but they also had weapons in their hands.

In terms of weapons, although they were not as advanced as the human elites, they were much stronger than the human Lords’ ordinary soldiers.

After all, excluding the elite soldiers, the guards of ordinary Lords were not that strong in this world.

These Kobolds in front of them were not weak even in the human world.

On the other hand, their opponents were even taller and faster Centaurs.

The Centaurs were a combination of humans and horses. They possessed the strength and speed of horses and the intelligence of humans.

In the desert, they were considered an extremely powerful race. They traversed the desert and rarely met a worthy opponent.

However, they were easily defeated in the hands of this group of Kobolds. They were continuously suppressed and could not gain the upper hand.

Of course, strictly speaking, the number of Kobolds who died on the battlefield was actually more than the centaurs.

However, there was no objection to this. Compared to the Centaurs, the Kobolds outnumbered the Centaurs significantly.

If one Kobold died, another ten Kobolds would immediately catch up. The Centaurs couldn’t seem to get rid of them entirely.

However, the number of centaurs was limited. They simply could not bear such a massacre. Moreover, there was no lack of powerful individuals among the Kobolds.

Roar!

A low roar came from a particular corner.

A huge Kobold clad in special armor, who was almost two meters tall, let out a roar on the battlefield. Its pair of scarlet eyes looked forward with dense killing intent.

Compared to an ordinary Kobold, this Kobold was too tall. Moreover, its entire body was covered with layers of scales, forming a natural defense. There was a vague sense of majesty about it. When people came into contact with it, they could not help but feel fear.

He roared as he walked forward, holding a huge sword in his hand. He slashed down directly and heavily, cutting off half of the body of an adult Centaur. The entire scene looked exceptionally bloody and terrifying.

“Hechi! Hechi!”

Waves of roars continued to be heard from all directions.

Looking at the figure charging forward and roaring, the surrounding Kobolds let out a series of shouts and shouted the name of the Kobold.

They continued to charge forward, completely drowning the group of Centaurs in front of them.

Soon, the battle ended. The people around began to clean up the battlefield.

Some of the surviving Centaur captives were directly locked up and placed aside, ready to be brought back.

As for the Kobolds, they were all settled down and started to carry out basic medical treatment.

At the back, some specially trained Kobold physicians came forward and used herbs and alcohol that they had prepared beforehand to disinfect their fellow Kobolds’ wounds before bringing them back.

Compared to humans, the Kobolds had a more substantial vitality. Even if they were heavily injured, as long as they were simply disinfected, they would be able to recover by relying on their self-healing abilities quickly.

This was also a natural talent of Kobolds. Of course, the same was true for Centaurs.

Some of the Kobolds’ injuries were very serious and could not be cured by basic medical treatment. However, there were other methods to help.

“Bear with it.”

Some of the Kobolds walked around and looked at one of the Kobolds in front of them.

In front of him, this Kobold was covered in blood and flesh. His body was covered in wounds.

There were many holes on the simple leather armor, and some arrows had also pierced through the armor.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Kobold’s vitality was strong enough, just the injuries in front of him were enough to kill him on the spot.

However, even so, at this moment, he was only left with his last breath. If nothing unexpected happened, he would die very quickly.

Basic medical treatment was no longer effective in this situation.

However, the Kobolds around did not despair. They carried the heavily injured Kobolds onto the stone slabs.

The stone slabs looked very ordinary. There was nothing special about them, only that many unique symbols carved on them. They looked like divine patterns.

Following a series of actions, the stone slabs in front of them began to shine brightly.

A shocking scene began to appear.

In front of them, the wounds on the heavily injured Kobolds began to heal. It was as if they were affected by some power, and their strength was recovering.

If a Priest were present, they would probably know what was happening in front of them very quickly— a healing spell!

In front of them, the changes in the Kobolds’ bodies were not due to anything else but were caused by divine spells.

However, there was no Priest in front of him. There was only a stone slab.

These stone slabs were one of the results of Kalunu’s long-term research.

Through his research on divine runes, he had successfully developed a method to fix the divine runes on a special material so that they could cast a specific divine spell according to the established circuit.

The advantage was that he did not need a Priest to cast the divine spell and the disadvantage was that he needed to reproduce this unique stone slab frequently.

Ordinary materials could not sustain the divine runes for a long time, and they would often be damaged after a period of time.

Moreover, the source of the power of the divine spell was also a problem, and it required Kalunu to supply it with his own divine power.

These were all troublesome.

However, judging from the current situation, these stone slabs engraved with divine runes were obviously still very useful.

Perhaps, he could not directly heal the injured people and make them well again.

However, with the divine runes engraved on the stone tablets, the Kobolds who were initially seriously injured and waiting to die could survive with slight injuries.

After the healing spell, applying basic medical treatment and disinfection would be enough, and the injured Kobolds could rely on their vitality to recover.

It was a very practical choice.

As of now, this was the way injured Kobolds were treated.

Because of these improvements, the death rate of the Kobolds on the battlefield had decreased significantly compared to the past. It was not as terrifying as in the past.

Of course, even so, the number of Kobolds who died was still high. After all, this was a battlefield.

As long as one stepped into the battlefield, casualties were bound to happen, and one could die.

Besides, there would also be a special team of Kobolds to handle the corpses of the dead Kobolds. They would put them in special boxes and prepare to transport them back for unified treatment.

This could be considered the practice of the Kobolds.

Although it hadn’t been long, the Kobolds were already used to transporting the corpses back for unified treatment by now.

Of course, this was also because nowadays, the Kobolds’ food was relatively abundant and wasn’t as scarce as in the past.

Otherwise, when food was scarce in the past, there was no lack of Kobolds who treated the corpses of other Kobolds as their food. The current situation had already disappeared in the vicinity.

Although the conditions of the Kobold race could still be considered harsh, it was much better compared to the past.

“107 people died in battle, 237 were injured, 32 were seriously injured…”

At the side, someone was recording a series of data.

However, these weren’t Kobolds but human-like individuals.

From the surface, they didn’t look much different from ordinary humans, but their looks were much more exquisite and beautiful. Moreover, the aura on their bodies made people feel peaceful and beautiful.

Through their features, it was apparent that they weren’t humans, but another extraordinary creature, the Dryad.

It was Dilin and another Dryad. It had been a long time since Dilin had joined as Kalunu’s subordinates.

After such a long time, she had gotten used to the life of the Kobold tribe.

As for the Dryad beside her, it was another Dryad that the Kobolds had found.

Back then, in the depths of the desert, the Centaurs had attacked the tribe where the Dryads were. After capturing them, they had captured many Dryads and brought them back.

However, many Dryads had escaped just like Dilin and survived even though the Centaurs had attacked.

The Dryad standing beside Dilin was the other Dryad that had escaped. Her name was Eileen.

Just like Dilin, Eileen was also not considered an adult in the Dryad community. She still had the physical features of a little girl.

She looked like a human little girl, cute and delicate.

“Kobolds attacked the Centaurs with twice the numbers, and the casualties were almost the same as the centaurs…”

Looking at the recorded data, Eileen shook his head. She didn’t know what to say.

“It’s not bad.”

Dilin opened her mouth and said, “After all, the centaurs were born strong. Very few races can compare with the Centaurs.”

“For these Kobolds to be able to do this, it’s already pretty good.”

“Moreover, their combat strength is still increasing.”

“That’s true.”

Hearing Dilin’s words, Eileen nodded in agreement.

The world of Gods was very vast. The number of races contained within it was also very diverse.

However, even among such a large number of races, excluding those extraordinary races that originated from the Gods and were innately noble, there were not many races that could be compared to Centaurs innately.

The heavens truly blessed Centaurs. They possessed both the intelligence of humans and horses’ innate qualities and strength.

With the combination of the two, not many races could be compared to Centaurs.

“Casualties are actually nothing…”

Looking at the data in her hands, Dilin spoke again, “According to what Leader Kaluna said, even though Centaurs are stronger, their numbers are definitely incomparable to the Kobolds.”

“Even if we exchange ten Kobolds for one Centaur, we will definitely be the last to win.”

“The real key is their mobility.”

In front of the absolute number of races, the centaurs were definitely incomparable to the Kobolds, which was the case in all aspects.

Based on Kalunu’s understanding of the situation, although the Centaurs were strong, their fertility was not much different from humans. In fact, they were even weaker.

They needed two years to get pregnant and then at least ten years to raise a qualified adult Centaur.

But the Kobolds didn’t need to do that.

A qualified Kobold could lay more than ten eggs a year if they had enough food.

After the Kobolds hatched from the eggs, they only needed a few years to grow and even have the power to mate again. The vast difference in reproduction is terrifying..
