A lot of information about our team in the northern foothills of the wasteland will fly like snowflakes to this castle during this afternoon, and every noble person who lives in this castle needs to know something about us, and their attention will not be me, but Kuz, the seventh son of the Grand Chief of Kurad, who has been taken around the continent by his grandfather, the high priest of Kurousaman, since he was a child.For this orc boy who was born in the same year as Kuz, I can even make up the disdain that Culio must have had at this time, telling the orcs around him about our misdeeds in the wasteland.For this son of the acting chief Kut, I can't understand why he is so consummated, it is completely a free-range posture of letting the seedlings grow.Kuzi stiffened his neck and tried to speak, but was quietly pulled by his mother sitting next to him.The cups and lamps were staggered, and the dinner was coming to an end.The fried cracked hoof beef tasted very delicious, and after I ate the portion on my plate, I ate the remaining half of the fried meat from Kige, and forked it onto my plate without disgust, so angry that Kige stomped on me under the table."
I heard you're a great magician?"
The young orc on the opposite side smiled like a blooming sunflower, and asked Qige carefully, and when he saw Qige look up and look at it with those big beautiful talking eyes, his dark face instantly swelled into a sauce-purple color.Kig nodded very ladylikely, his big eyes winking at the young orc, and his delicate face was smiling like nothing.The orc suddenly seemed to think of something, and in a panic, he wiped the corners of his mouth stained with oil and blood with the napkin on his chest, revealing a humble embarrassment.Kut drank the last bite of onion soup on the disc, raised his head and looked at Kuz with a sharp gaze like a falcon, and asked, "Xiao Qi, what are your plans in the future?"
”The loud voice drowned out all the cacophony in the dining room, and the table became silent.Almost everyone in the room wanted to know how Kut would treat his younger brother who was about to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony, and in the generation of the Blood Wolf Clan Ku family, Kut was undoubtedly the most powerful.But it is not the most favored one, the most favored is the seventh young master Kuz.After becoming the acting chief of Gurudin, Kurt drove all the five younger brothers around him to the outermost part of the Blood Wolf Tribe's sphere of influence by means of suppression.Let them go and guard the border of the blood wolf clan's power map.At that time, Kut forcibly suppressed most of the opposition, and this time, everyone watched from the sidelines, instead Kuz, who had just returned from a trip to the Wasteland.Invisibly pushed to the cusp, everyone is watching, see what you Kut will do!
Will the younger brother who has not yet participated in the coming-of-age ceremony be sent to the border without humanity, or will he stay by his side and watch it personally, in either case, if it is not done well, it will cause a backlash from those forces who oppose Kut.But in the face of the imminent return of Old Kuru, no one dared to risk angering Old Kuru and embarrass Kuz at this time."
When I came back this time, I walked for a month in the northern foothills of the wilderness.I have experienced a lot of things, I have seen a lot of people begging for a living in the wasteland, and I have seen that their lives are very miserable.There are many orcs who have no ability to protect themselves, and in order to be able to eat a full meal, they risk going to the wasteland to beg for a living.On the way, we also met a small tribe whose men had all been killed in the battle with the gray dwarf bandits last year, leaving only a few old and weak women and children.When we met them, we saw the orcs of the tribe digging wild vegetables in the wasteland with their children.Their leader was severely injured by the wind wolves in Wolf Gorge, and the tribe could not survive in the wasteland.So I took them back to the town of Gurudin, and they came with me eating wild vegetables along the way, because I had promised them.Take them home. ”After Kutz said this, there was silence in the restaurant.Every werewolf here is not unaware that the orcs of the entire Pai Plateau are famine, but the nobles of these wolf clans rarely think carefully about the life and death of the orcs in those small tribes, and they only habitually know it.After the spring hunt, ask them for the skin of the antelope, and when the battle comes, ask them for strong warriors.Kutz continued, "Big brother, the annual coming-of-age ceremony will only be held in early summer, and there is still more than a month before here, and I want to bring those orcs back to their homeland with my friends, help them settle down, and then participate in the early summer coming-of-age ceremony.The people of those tribes said that there were endless potatoes in the swamps of their hometown, and I wanted to lead those people to dig up the potatoes there, so that there would be no more famine in the territory of our blood wolf clan. ”At this time, Kuz's mother, who was sitting on the side, suddenly changed her face, looked at her son in horror and screamed, "You want to go to the Swamp of Death?
”"No, how dare I go there!"
Kuz was extremely relaxed, and comforted his mother, saying, "After Grandpa took me out of the town of Gurudin, I walked along the edge of the Death Swamp all the way to the east, and although I am no stranger to it, I still know very well how dangerous it is.This time I just want to go to the drowning moor on the edge of the swamp, and you don't have to worry about it.It was next to the edge of the swamp of death, and my son and I took a group of people to dig some potatoes and transport them back. ”"Drowned, where do you want to go?"
Coot's eyes were blazing, and he looked at Kuz, who was comforting his mother.Speaking of which, the plague of demonic beasts in the drowning area has been going on for a long time, and almost every year, a wave of corpses will hit the orc towns on the edge of the swamp, and the solution in the past was very simple, these orc tribes on the edge of the swamp would unite and gather enough warriors to drive those zombies that crawled out of the swamp back into the swamp.This year, the men in the tribe had no time to take care of these swamp zombies, so that a large wave of corpses was formed, and this problem had plagued the high-ranking members of the Guruding tribe as early as a month ago, and even held several elders' meetings to discuss how to deal with the corpse tide.The current problem faced by the Gurudin tribe is the lack of warriors who can resist the swamp zombies, as the western gate of the orcs on the Pai Plateau, the Guruding Fortress is the first barrier against the Grimm Empire, even if there are so many years of peace, it still does not make the orcs relax their vigilance, the reason is that the Pai Plateau is already the last paradise of the orcs, and they have no way to retreat.So at any time, the Gurudin Fortress will be stationed with more than 30,000 elite soldiers.In the war against the gray dwarf bandits a year ago, a large number of werewolves in their prime have been killed, so much so that this spring's spring hunt, in order to gather enough people, surrounded the demon antelope group in the depths of the wasteland.As a result, many small tribes are left with only orc girls and children, so that the tribes living on the edge of the swamp do not have enough strength to resist the tide of corpses.So much so that later, the corpse tide formed a scale, and even the current high-level leaders of Gurudin were helpless for a while.The people who have the strength to hunt monsters are all in the depths of the wasteland, and if they were to be transferred back to a team to kill the swamp zombies, it would affect the harvest of the entire spring hunt.Among the many demonic beasts in the wasteland, the demon antelope is the lowest existence among the demonic beasts.can be reluctantly classified as a first-class demonic beast.The strength of the wind wolf is already considered a low-to-average first-level demonic beast, but if a group of wind wolves gathers together, their strength will increase exponentially.On the Pai Plateau, the salamander has always been an existence that can be used as the top of a first-level demonic beast.But the most rough-skinned and thick-skinned monsters with the highest defensive power are these swamp zombies in the Swamp of Death.Here in Guruding Town, there are still some ordinary orc reserve warriors, but the high-level of Guruding Town has not used these powers, because they don't want the orcs who are not strong enough to die in vain.The feathered arrows that were shot with an ironwood bow could not pierce the hard skin of swamp zombies.In the past, there were human adventure groups that stayed in the town of Gurudin, but in the last month.These high-level demon teams were hired by the human merchants in the town to protect these merchants and go into the depths of the wasteland to buy demon antelope skins."
Your alloy bow can shoot through that hard shell of swamp zombies?"
Kut asked, looking at Kutz with a slight frown.Kuz had already reached Kut's ears with a gold bow with a top-notch weapon, but he didn't believe that his younger brother, who had not yet reached the age of fourteen and had participated in the wolf clan's coming-of-age ceremony, had passed the human trial and could shoot skill arrows with armor-piercing attributes."
Not yet, it should be soon!"
Kuzi didn't hide it shyly at this time, but said confidently.Coot's brow furrowed even deeper, and he asked in a deep voice, "Then what qualifications do you have to deal with those swamp zombies?"
Have you ever thought about it.If you die on the edge of the swamp of death, will I be guilty of persecution of siblings for the rest of my life because of you?
”Kutz puffed up his chest and raised his head high despite his mother's obstruction.He said loudly very forcefully: "I want to go by myself, and it has nothing to do with you, big brother."
My reason is also very simple, I want to dig up all the potatoes buried there and distribute them to the starving orcs so that they can survive. ”I pulled the hem of Kuz's clothes down there, and this guy always wanted to be Lei Feng when his mind was hot.I didn't do myself any good.Kuzi said this, and sure enough, Kut's face was even more gloomy, and I thought to myself: If I were the big chief, I would think more about what you Kuzi did, what do you want to do?
It makes sense to go to the edge of the Death Swamp to hunt swamp zombies, after all, zombies have a high chance of having a magic core, but as the seventh son of Kurad, if you dig up the sweet potatoes there and distribute them to the hungry werewolves, this is a bit ill-intentioned, is this buying people's hearts?
Or is it challenging the authority of the newly appointed Acting Chief Kut?"
Az, what do you say!
Didn't those sweet potatoes say they were going to be shipped back to Gurudin's town for sale?
Will the elders of the Presbyterian Church give you that little spare money?
”I hurriedly whispered to the side, but the voice was sure that most of the orcs at the table could hear me.Sure enough, when many people look at me again, there is a kind of contempt for businessmen in their eyes: what a profiteer who plucks his feathers!
Kuzi scratched his head a little dazedly, and quietly leaned down and asked me, "Didn't you say that you should give some of the sweet potatoes to the poor and sell the rest?"
”The orcs on the table were all aware of it, and it turned out that they really wanted to take advantage of the profiteers who picked the last copper plate in the pockets of those poor orcs.Kuzi said such a sentence very honestly, in fact, the second half of the sentence is a little unclear, but the effect is even better.Actually, Kuz originally wanted to say: Is the rest of the noodles made into noodles and then sold to those Terran merchants?
I winked at Kuz, he didn't quite understand what I was saying, didn't understand what the noodles that were supposed to be sold to the Terran merchants had anything to do with the Orc Elders, but he wouldn't contradict me.Kurt sat in his chair and was silent for a moment before asking, "I know that your friend is a magician, and this boy is also Grandpa's apprentice, you may have your own way to deal with swamp zombies."
But, on my brother's advice, I will tell you about the swamp of death.The most dangerous thing is definitely not the zombies that can't even run, it doesn't matter how you provoke the zombies, just go back the way you came.The big ones won't hurt you, but you'll have to be sure that the Red-Eyed Bat and the Death Reaper are speed monsters that will drain or cut your blood in two the moment they touch you!
”"Since your brother likes that swamp.Why don't you just leave the edge of the swamp in his hands?
”The oldest-looking orc lady who sat at the top suddenly spoke, her face facing Kut, but the eyes that had looked so kind looked at Kuz's mother sharply.Although Coote paused, he hesitated a little, but after a moment he still said, "Yes, Mother!
Do as you are told. ”At this moment, Kuzi's mother has been confused by this sudden change."
Xiao Qi, let me ask you again.Are you sure you want to go to the Drowning Lodge?
”Kurt asked Kurtz meaningfully, one of his hands resting on the wooden table, his index finger fluttering and rhythmically tapping lightly on the wooden tabletop, feeling a little conflicted in his heart.Then he added: "Maybe you can think about it carefully, maybe it would be a good choice for you to stay in Gurudintown to help me." ”As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused the angry eyes of the oldest orc noblewoman, but Kuz's mother glanced at Kut in surprise, and quickly and secretly pulled Kuz's sleeve to get him to agree.In the minds of these Kuz families, the castle in the town of Gurudin is undoubtedly the safest and most comfortable place.They had been the orc nobles of the wolf clan for too long, and they had been tainted with the bad habits of the human nobility that enjoyed a life of ease and luxury.In my opinion, staying anywhere in the Blood Wolf Clan is probably not going to stay in Guruding Town, where you can learn to intrigue.What else could there be?
Kuz smiled and glanced at Big Brother Kut gratefully, no one here is stupid, everyone knows that in this period, there is no better place than Gurudin, at least stay here and never worry about starvation, disease, monster invasion and gray dwarf bandits.The grey dwarves are gone, but they leave an indelible scar on the orcs.Standing up from the chair, at this time everyone in the restaurant found that the weak orc child in their original impression had now become a somewhat thin orc boy, his hands were propped up on the dining table, his eyes looked firmly at all the young werewolves on the table, and he took three deep breaths evenly, and then said: "I like adventure, I also like to fight, originally before I set off from Yemen Town, my idea was just to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony, and I wanted to hunt two demon antelopes in the northern foothills of the wasteland with my friend Jijia, Then he sewed himself a magic antelope skin light armor with his own hands.I think wearing such a suit of monster leather armor can make a big show at the coming-of-age ceremony. ”He looked at me, and then said, "Before the two of us entered the Northern Foothills Wasteland alone, Jijia secretly asked me, and he said, 'Az, will it be dangerous for the two of us to enter the Northern Foothills Wasteland?
I said: It's going to be a little, are you scared?
He shook his head and said to me, "I'm not afraid, I'm just worried that I'm going to be your oil bottle." ”I was just trying to make sure there would be any danger for me and Kuz to go into the wasteland, and I didn't think about anything else.And later, Azi also made it clear that even if he couldn't get the demon antelope, there would be absolutely no problem with ensuring the safety of both of us.Just as I was in reminiscence, Kuz continued: "Our caravan came out of the Death Road in the northern foothills, and in the valley passage at the exit we encountered a group of young Grey Dwarf bandits, and Giga and I almost lost our lives in that battle, but we both survived, and got the first sum of money from the Grey Dwarf bandits, and bought the alloy bow with all we had.I remember that the two of us really went out of our way to buy a good bow that could break through the armor of the Antelope, and we even considered selling the only bottle of healing potion we had.Later, we walked into the northern foothills of the wasteland together, completed our original plan, and caught enough demon antelopes, and now I can wear magic antelope skin armor to the coming-of-age ceremony.However, my friend Giga told me that he would return to the Grimm Empire with her sister in a few days, and I now realize that I have not given Giga a decent gift.Outside the exit of the valley road in Yelian Mountain, a few of us met the wise man Mayana, who told us that the swamp zombies can be refined into corpse fire oil, which can be made into fire phosphorus bombs is very valuable in the Grimm Empire, maybe we can hunt some swamp zombies to exchange a little money for his journey home. ”To be continued.
