Chapter 103 Meeting
The most important thing is that even after two "evil gods" fell in succession, those foreign demons still did not show any signs of decline.
It was obvious that even the loss of two gods was not a big deal to the invading guys.
The implication of this is chilling, meaning that behind the other party, there is likely an even more powerful force that has not yet appeared.
"According to the oracle, there are indeed quite a few 'foreign demons' who follow the foreign evil gods and invade when the plane barriers are damaged." A priest sitting in a corner, wearing a holy robe, whispered, his voice carrying divine power.
"They are scattered across the country like a plague, causing considerable damage to our kingdom and tribe."
"The problem is," the dwarf elder stroked his beard and let out a thunderous voice, "most of their landing points are in the heart of our coalition camp, and they are very scattered, making it difficult to capture them all in one fell swoop."
The human king also agreed. "Ever since those foreign invaders who call themselves wizards have intensified their offensive on the front lines, most of our powerful men have been tied up, making it difficult to spare any time to deal with these guys who are hiding so deeply like maggots on the tarsal bone."
There was a brief silence in the hall.
These scattered "wizards" are like countless fleas drilling in and out of the body. Although they are not very lethal, they are extremely annoying and weaken their rear forces.
"How is the progress of reading the souls of those newly invading wizards?" The Dragon King, who had been silent since a while ago, made a low voice.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to one side of the round table.
A giant eyeball that looked like several tentacles was floating there quietly. It was one of the overlords of the underground world of the Elosia plane: the Demon Eye Clan.
As intelligent creatures that once established an underground empire, although they are inherently evil, they are forced to stand up and cooperate with other races when the entire plane is in crisis.
As a naturally evil race, the Demon Eyes are best at manipulating the minds of other creatures. They are also good at extracting the necessary intelligence from the brains and souls of the manipulated creatures.
"...still failed." A slightly strange voice came out from the eyeball.
If you look closely, it's not the Demonic Eye itself that's speaking, but rather it's using its immense mental power to manipulate the surrounding air to create a resonant simulated sound.
After all, there were very few weak people present, and its mental transmission could not break through the mental protection barriers of these people.
"We've lost three elders in total. We can basically confirm that even the weakest of these foreign demons can't obtain any relevant information through methods such as reading minds or devouring brains. They may even be attacked back..."
After the Demon Eye finished speaking, everyone else simultaneously focused their attention on a black-skinned elf beside it.
The Dark Elf Queen casually waved her hand, a simple gesture filled with captivating charm:
"It's useless. Neither torture nor charm can get any information out of them. Those guys are acting very strangely. They don't seem to have strong willpower. Something must be preventing them from sharing the relevant information."
"In other words, even the weakest of these 'wizards' have protections set up deep within their souls?"
"What a hassle! What kind of thing is this? Is it their racial innate ability?"
"Those guys don't seem to be acting like some kind of collective consciousness..."
"According to what you mean, could it be that these guys were transformed according to the standards of the invasion world when they were born?"
“Are you kidding me?!”
…
"Everyone."
Just as everyone present was arguing, suddenly, a young wizard who had been sitting at the last seat and had been silent spoke up.
He was wearing a simple wizard robe, but his eyes revealed a wisdom that did not match his age.
All the leaders showed respect when they saw this "young" wizard.
Even the leaders of some evil races showed a look of respect at the same time as a flash of fear in their eyes when they saw this wizard.
The young wizard cleared his throat. "I have a suggestion. In that case, why don't we offer a reward?"
Seeing the puzzled looks from the crowd, he continued to explain, "Although these invading wizards are numerous, they are not as powerful as those on the front lines. They are still within the range that high-level adventurers can handle."
"The most troublesome thing about them is that they are scattered and hiding throughout the hinterland. Searching for them would require a huge amount of manpower and resources. In that case, why not just mobilize the same number of adventurers?"
"We can offer a high bounty and target those 'wizards' hiding in the hinterland. This way, we can mobilize the forces of the Adventurer's Guild and have them take the initiative to encircle and suppress them. As long as we are willing to spend enough, we can mobilize enough manpower. Even if we can't kill them, we can greatly restrict the actions of these invaders."
"More importantly," the mage's eyes gleamed with wisdom, "during this process, the strength and loyalty of those adventurers who excel in the bounty hunt will be verified. We can directly recruit them into the armies of various tribes, or even into various knight orders and warbands, relieving the pressure on the front lines."
These words made all the leaders present brighten up!
They were stuck in a rut of thinking. You have to know that when the wizards first invaded, they were too powerful, so the adventurers were not only unable to provide effective assistance, but even had a counterproductive effect.
After all, in a society with extraordinary powers, the truly powerful adventurers had long been recruited as nobles, and the rest were just some mediocre people.
So much so that when dealing with this group of newly invading wizards, they didn't think of it at the first time.
This strategy can not only utilize the power of the people to eliminate the "invading demons", but also replenish their much-needed fresh blood and strengthen their military strength.
"Great!" The orc chief slammed the table, an excited smile on his rugged face. "Those greedy adventurers will do anything for gold!"
"That's a good idea." The Elf Queen also agreed softly, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.
Finally, after a brief discussion, all the leaders agreed to the idea.
Bounties, along with various orders, were issued from the palace and quickly spread to every adventurer's guild, mercenary tavern, and town bulletin board in the Elosia plane.
A "national hunt" targeting wizard apprentices has quietly begun.
