Chapter 544: Behemoth to be processed
Speaking of which, among all the areas of the Kanes Courtyard, the Snow Ridge Ranch is actually the most harmonious area for humans at this stage.

Not only do humans want to grow the population, the living environment in the courtyard is much more stable than that in hell. Most courtyard masters value sustainable development. In addition to driving out and capturing some monsters from hell and throwing them into the courtyard, the positioning of Snow Ridge Ranch among the various monster areas is mainly based on the initial breeding and domestication of monsters.

It is adjacent to the courtyard border in the west, the back of the snow-capped peak in the north borders the Death Canyon command area, and the east is adjacent to the central part of the Goblin Kingdom. Only the south is a relatively safe direction for adventurers to enter the Snow Ridge Ranch.

Even so, the Snow Ridge Ranch didn't seem to want to fight to the death with humans. The fraud demon village that Mu Hua encountered earlier was by no means an exception here.

There are hotels, restaurants, casinos, black markets, brothels and other facilities. Many monster settlements here are actually open to adventurers.

It cannot be said to be absolutely safe. To some extent, those settlements can be seen as a chaotic zone where no one is in charge. There are arenas where adventurers can watch monsters fighting each other, and humans can even hire monsters to participate in the battles between adventurers and monsters in other areas of Snow Ridge Ranch.

Most of the monsters that participated in gladiatorial combat or fighting were there to be trained at the Snow Ridge Ranch.

While helping the Snow Ridge Ranch to make a profit, most of the best survivors will be sent to the Bloody Hills, where they will undergo further growth. Eventually, they will be sent to the hands of monster commanders in various areas, or be trained by the Lord of the Courtyard, or even sent back to Hell.

So Snow Ridge Ranch may be more chaotic than other monster areas, but it is relatively harmonious towards human adventurers.

Anyway, they are just sitting around in the courtyard doing nothing. It is the same as human population development. Most monster leaders in the courtyard will do this kind of thing of breeding and cultivating monsters.

The main feature is that it is cheap. To be honest, this kind of life form that is bred by nature and produced by the survival of the fittest is much cheaper than magical life forms, skeletons, and the like.

Of course, monsters want to continue to develop, and humans are not stupid. Unlike monsters who expect the human population to increase, humans are more inclined to attack places like Snow Ridge Ranch as long as they can spare the time.

However, compared with the threats and profits from other regions, people tend to prioritize. As for how to make humans ignore the so-called monster breeding base, it depends on the operation and management of the monsters.

For example, the threat level of the Mechanical Forest will increase exponentially regardless of where it is placed.

The Goblin Kingdom has vast resources, abundant products, clear monster strength, and is relatively safe.

Death Canyon, um, Death Canyon is Death Canyon, a burial place. If people don't turn over its sign, it will occasionally expose a sea of ​​bones which is disgusting, but there doesn't seem to be anything special about it otherwise. It is probably the area with the highest negative reviews.

Hot Spring Township is an area about 300 kilometers north of the southern border of Xueling Ranch.

Just like the name of this place, there are quite a few underground hot springs in this relatively cold area, and the hot springs here are relatively concentrated. It seems that the monsters want to turn this place into a hot spring resort for adventurers to relax.

There are several flat terrains here that lead to several medium-risk areas, which can also be regarded as outposts of high-risk areas. Unfortunately, the monsters here have not yet gained the trust of human adventurers, but have recruited Mu Hua first.

There were billows of scorching smoke and fires everywhere. From time to time, wandering fires could be seen between the earth and the hills. Those were the products of the flames of life burning the living things.

The ghostly fire source had the appearance of a living creature before death, with a slightly distorted face, and occasionally a sad and violent whistle would come out of its wide-open mouth.

Because the number of fire spirits that Tina can collect is limited, these flame aggregates are much rougher than the fire spirits that accompany Tina in both shape and appearance.

They will burn themselves out soon, but before they dissipate, they will follow the instructions given to them by Tina and search and embrace all living beings that appear before them.

The Fire Demons are undoubtedly doomsday demons. They are similar to Medusa. They are extremely unwelcome in hell and will be disliked and isolated by demons. Many times, the Demons of Original Sin look like little freshies in front of them.

The form before death was vaguely preserved, and various flame aggregates brought destruction to the hot spring town.

The Snow Ridge Ranch is 500 to 2,000 kilometers away from east to west. This hot spring town was originally a low-risk area. One has to continue heading north for nearly 3,000 kilometers to reach the foot of the snow-covered mountains. The nearest high-altitude area is about 400 to 500 kilometers away in a straight line.

Compared with ordinary wars between monsters, this place can be regarded as an outpost for rest and recuperation, but it is not a suitable place to serve as a bridgehead.

However, Mu Hua was planning to build a city here to resist the attacks of monsters.

The terrain near the hot spring village is mostly mountainous and hilly. The west is close to the border of the courtyard, and behind it is the false sky, the stars and the dangerous dimensional turbulence. Even monsters are unwilling to get close.

To the south, people have planned a safe zone for the future. There are mountain passes to the east. If a strong army builds another stronghold in the east, then based in the hot spring village, they basically only need to guard against enemies invading from the north.

This is a place that is very suitable as a defensive fortress. Of course, Mu Hua and the others can see it, and the monsters cannot be unaware of it.

The reason why the monsters didn't station troops here and wanted to turn it into a leisure resort was entirely because this place was not the only way to the fortress city, and it was too far away from the area where Leticia was located.

It takes thousands of kilometers to the north to reach the land of snow and wind. Not counting the spatial difference of crossing mountains and ridges, it may take at least thousands of kilometers to meet Leticia.

Whether monsters want to go to the fortress city, or humans want to attack Leticia, they can basically ignore the land and water routes here.

In normal warfare, there is not much combat value here.

However, the war that Mu Hua wanted to fight was not a normal war. He planned to kidnap the generals under Leticia, including elite troops, city lords and clan leaders. If he could capture Leticia as a decoration, he could also test the reaction of the Lord of the Courtyard.

Mu Hua plans to turn this place into a fortress to store monster statues. Unless Leticia can ignore her captured men, she should move all the logistics and military equipment and march south first.

If Mu Hua were to find some strategic locations in the north to garrison, then if Leticia's army wanted to reach there, by land, they would have to travel tens of thousands of miles first, right?
Flying? A strong individual attacks alone? That would depend on whether Mu Hua could deploy his forces to attack the enemy flying here from both sides.

Leticia might still be waiting for Mu Hua to lead his army to attack her Snow Peak Fortress. Mu Hua also wants to take advantage of the situation and lure Leticia's army here by taking advantage of the Petrifying Demon Eye.

Speaking of which, Medusa is actually quite unwelcome in hell. Even compared to Arachne, Medusa is considered an outlier.

In the courtyard, unless you are the lord of the courtyard like Queen Medusa of the Eternal Night Territory, you rarely see Medusa in the courtyard. It is because their petrifying magic eyes are a bit bad, and many demons don't like to get along with Medusa. Thursday found Tina in a valley, Mu Hua joined Tina, and Thursday returned to the south to sweep the "base" that recruited adventurers with Monday.

Mu Hua hasn't used the petrifying eyes yet, and Monday is still the fat boy riding a goat. Mu Hua hasn't even brought out too many skeleton undead.

Now, only Thursday can be considered as the day when Mu Hua is used for demonstration. It is estimated that Mu Hua will have to wait until the front line of Wenquan Township is stabilized and several strongholds are built here before he will truly show his fangs to Xueling Ranch.

"Roar!" A manic beast roar. Tina was guarding a ferocious Behemoth. The multiple flames with life forms around her made the Behemoth dare not move rashly.

When Mu Hua arrived, he casually threw an identification spell at the Behemoth, whose shackles were still on its limbs and neck, which also provoked the Behemoth's violent rebuke.

Constitution: 937, Intelligence: 163, Spirit: 152.

The Behemoth, who is about ten meters tall, has muscles as hard as rock. His hippopotamus-shaped head is equipped with protruding fangs and tusks that extend forward in an arc. Hard black spikes protrude from his shoulder blades and collarbones, and his arms are more than seven meters long and hang to the ground.

Its overall body shape is similar to King Kong, but its aggressive body makes King Kong look like a gentle little beast in front of it. On its palms hanging down to the ground, the four fingers have thick claws that are more than four meters long.

Even if the palm is curled up like a hammer, the claws on the side of the wrist are frightening. The fangs of Behemoth may not be outstanding, but their claws have the ability to break armor and cut through gold and jade.

They are the darlings of the earth. The gray-white hair on their bodies is an excellent medium for casting spells when creating earth puppets. Their bodies are their swords, and the mountains provide them with food.

Behemoths have stronger physical recovery abilities when standing on the ground than werewolves, and their sturdy bodies are very flexible. Their tendons are interconnected, forming a whole, and every inch of their flesh and blood is filled with explosive power.

Physical fitness is 900+. Although it has grown in size, this should still be an immature Behemoth.

If this attribute existed a year and a half ago, Mu Hua would probably call it daddy when he saw it.

But let alone elites and demon generals, Mu Hua has already become an extraordinary existence, and no matter how conservative one is, he will be classified into the command sequence.

This monster, which can be considered a melee king even among demons, is somewhat fresh in his eyes.

"BOSS, do you want to catch it? I checked and there is no devil contract on it. If it doesn't obey, I want to take it." Mu Hua observed Behemoth and Tina, who had returned to human form, asked him.

Behemoths are naturally friendly to the elements of water and earth. They are highly resistant to poison and corrosion, and the petrifying eye has no effect on them. However, they are still afraid of fire. When encountering fire thunder, they can only rely on the magic power and blood in their flesh and blood to withstand it.

"Let's try it first. However, the attributes of this Behemoth are still a bit low. You can consider raising it before burning it." Mu Hua thought and waved his hand to cast a summoning circle.

What Tina called "conquering" was not the same concept as Mu Hua's "subjugating". Her "conquering" meant burning the Behemoth with the flame of life, and then letting the fire spirit transformed from the Behemoth become a part of her life.

That kind of flame life is not a proper flame elf after all. It is basically unable to cast regular magic and has no growth at all.

But they possess the power and fighting habits of their previous lives, and are made of flames, which in themselves is basically a permanent fire magic.

The size of Behemoth transformed into a fire spirit may be reduced to a certain extent, and Behemoth's melee skills are brutal and fierce, but not rough. It is really good as a dominated flame of life.

Tina has a limited number of fire spirits that she can integrate into herself. If she cannot subdue this Behemoth, Mu Hua would rather give it some physical crystals and then let Tina burn it.

And when the summoning circle cast by Mu Hua was fully deployed, four Behemoth summoned beasts, which were also Behemoths, taller and more powerful than the Behemoths in front of them, emerged from the summoning circle.

"Roar~~!" the giant beast roared.

"..." Behemoth, surrounded by four big brothers, was a little dazed.

"Armor of the Stone King." The Behemoth summoned beast cast the Behemoth clan's signature magic.

The earth and rock armor covered their bodies, and the heavy stone armor made their feet leave a shallow imprint on the ground, but it did not affect their flexibility at all. The original beast-like form was concealed by the rough armor, and several Behemoth summoned beasts seemed to have transformed into mountain kings.

"..." The surrounded Behemoth bared his teeth, and his eyes, which seemed small compared to his head, widened into a round shape.

Behemoth's brain is a little bit bad, but since it is classified as an orc, it has a higher IQ and rational thinking than ordinary monsters.

The four behemoths in front of it are stronger than it, no, much stronger. It hasn't even learned the Armor of the Stone King yet. Even if it learns it, it would be like having a curse of slowness on its back. It always feels that it may not be strong enough to fight these guys.

"Ah!" They had to fight even if the fight was not strong enough. Behemoth's main feature was its stubbornness. However, the roar of this Behemoth targeted by Mu Hua and Tina seemed to be a little different from the previous one.

"Cough cough cough~~" The four Behemoth summoned beasts let out strange laughter. They are summoned beasts, they are also conscious, and they are much more lively than the undead summoned beasts.

Four Behemoths, armed to the teeth, were seen waving their fingers, sparks flew from the friction of their claws, surrounding the pink fellow in front of them. The Behemoths slowly approached, and the expressions in these guys' little eyes seemed to show that they were very happy.

"Ah~!" As if to cheer itself up, the monster Behemoth howled again, but it also provoked the Behemoth's summoned beast to pounce on it.

“Crackle, crackle, crackle~~” Fighting... Well, forget it, forget fighting. Anyway, the monster Behemoth has already curled up on the ground, posing in a very standard posture of holding its head and getting beaten.

Mu Hua had never seen a living Behemoth before, and the Behemoth in front of him was the first time he had seen a living one. But he had Behemoth summoned beasts, and in addition to the four he brought with him, he also sent out a few more.

As for the source of these summoned beasts? Well, there are only a dozen monsters under Thursday's command, and some monsters with good summoned beasts disappeared after giving their summoned beasts to Mu Hua. . .
