The flow of time, which is as bright as a golden ribbon, carries countless meteorites like a rushing river, constantly devouring new meteorites in the endless star field, and many meteorites are as small as fine gravel in the desert in the flow of time.And in the midst of these countless gravels, Xinliu Valley was like nine grains of sand and dust stuck together, and the faint breath of life continued to spread outward.And the area where we are is is only one of the nine grains of sand.Standing at the mouth of the circular valley surrounded by mountains, you can clearly see several large circular lakes sparkling in the valley, and on one of the islands in the middle of the lake there is a huge arched tree root that has died, which is several kilometers long and more than 100 meters in diameter The huge tree root is exposed on the surface, looking like a natural stone arch bridge.A nearly fifty meters tall emerald green tree grows in the center of the island, behind it is the arched huge root, my eyes scan the past, it has felt that I am looking at it, the branches of countless crystal green leaves rustle non-stop, as if to welcome my arrival, it is the real master of this world, I can feel its vigorous and rich breath of life.The dryads who live on the island continue to live a peaceful life, they are a group of tree goblins who depend on the World Tree to survive, relying on sucking morning dew and flower juice for a living, they are born with some wood-based magic, they are the most loyal guardians of the World Tree, they inhabit the branches of the World Tree, and will dance among the flowers under the World Tree, I think these tree fairies are the most carefree species, everything they have is given by the World Tree, including their wisdom.During this year, the orcs led by Karantso seemed to have forgotten that there was a natural deep valley here, and there was no communication with some dryads, but occasionally a few orcs who were good at gathering techniques transplanted some magical herbs from outside the valley, such as golden needle grass, kudzu root, demon emperor grass, Ningshen flower, one-leaf grass, heather grass, and Karantso asked these orcs who collected magical herbs to transplant these rare magical herbs into this circular valley as long as they saw these rare magical herbs outside the valley.Today, in the lakeside clearing in the circular valley, a medicine garden the size of half an acre has been formed.This happens to be the most marginal part of the growth of the Lord of the World Tree's talents, these magic herbs are nourished by the rich life elements of the World Tree every day, and they grow like wild grasses, in the past six months, the magic herbs in the wild of Xinliu Valley have been collected by the beast girls, and now most of the primary rare magic herbs in the magic grocery store are produced from the medicine garden.Among these primary rare herbs, the most precious herbs are the Golden Needle Grass, the main medicine for making spiritual potions, and Pueraria Pueraria, the main medicine for making the Lion King Potion.It can be said that the round valley has become a valley rich in magic herbs, I have recently set foot in a lot of magic herb shops, looking for some potion seeds, during this time, I have also collected some heather seeds, heather is the main ingredient for making weak troll blood potion, it is said that it is already considered a medium-level magic herb, but even under the nourishment of the field of grass and tree growth, the growth rate of those heather is still extremely slow.Karantso was still wearing her delicate bust armor, her entire rounded shoulders and large snow-white breasts were exposed, and the exaggerated style design of the half-body armor corset made me very worried about whether a well-proportioned and muscular girl like Karantso could breathe smoothly, and her lower body was a very well-cut skinny demon antelope leather armor short leather pants and a pair of short blue ice deerskin boots.Nearly a year and a half of recuperation here in Xinliu Valley has made her face extremely ruddy, and she is standing quietly by my side at this moment.For such a long time, she still hasn't changed her stubborn thoughts, and she still thinks that she is my servant, in fact, I want her to become a qualified manager and help me manage the entire Xinliu Valley well, and now it seems that she has done a good job in more than a year.Where I was, the only way to the circular valley, ten barbarian slaves with shackles on their feet, carrying long stones on their backs, walked slowly up from the foot of the mountain.These stone strips will become the cornerstone of the mountain city, so special attention is paid to the size of the stone strips when digging, each stone bar will be chiseled into a uniform size specification of two meters long, half a meter wide, half a meter high, granite strips are quarried on a stone ridge on the outer side of the circular valley, where several old orc quarrymen build a shack and live there.This one-ton long stone was used to build the outer city wall, and when the outermost wall is completed, it will connect the towering mountains on both sides, and block the only exit from the circular valley tightly, and in my imagination, a mountain castle will be erected in its place, but it will take many years to build the original prototype of this mountain castle.These ten barbarian slaves had to carry thirty huge stone bars a day before they were allowed to rest.However, their physical strength was far beyond my imagination, and they had to carry it for a whole year, and only a handful of stones were transported to this mountain."
If only there were more such barbarian slaves, I don't know when this mountain city will be built!"
Karantso stood beside me and said with a sigh.She looked at the clearing that had been leveled beneath her feet, and the stone bars had not even been able to make out the outline of the outermost part of the mountain castle.The barbarian slaves carried heavy stones on their sturdy shoulders, and the strong shoulders collapsed with green tendons, they let out heavy gasps, sweat lay down their cheeks, and passed me step by step with a thousand pounds of stone bars on their backs, the scar on their left ear had been completely healed, and there was no irritable fire in their eyes the size of copper bells, even if they were short-tempered barbarians, after such a year of training, all the sharp edges and corners were polished round and smooth.A chain in the collarbone at their shoulders had grown completely in the flesh, and the long section that was exposed was wrapped around their bodies like a belt.They were naked, swarthy and muscular, with a simple sackcloth around their waists, and two of the barbarians didn't even have a sackcloth on them.Originally, I wanted these barbarian slaves to do some hard labor in Xinliu Valley, but they were also barbarians who were about to be executed anyway, and if they were exhausted, they should be considered to have been executed!
There is no essential difference from being sent to the gallows.But after a year of hard labor beyond the imagination of mortals, these barbarians have gradually adapted to life in the Xinliu Valley, and the fierce appearance of the past in the eyes of these barbarians has been worn away, and according to Karantso, they have been very honest lately.Karantso's words moved my mind slightly, and I turned to look at her and said, "If, I'm talking about if."
If you could be given a few more of these barbarian slaves, how many people would you be able to manage?
”I added, "I mean I don't want them to get into trouble in the Willow Valley." ”"I think I can manage a few hundred people!"
Karantso thought for a moment and said to me."
Once these strong barbarians gather together, the energy they possess is not as simple as you think!"
I reminded her."
It doesn't matter!"
She looked at a barbarian slave who happened to pass in front of us, and said to me, "Because of the magic contract, it's easy to manage!"
Don't worry, I'll do what you tell me to do. ”She always tried her best to share some problems for me, a somewhat stubborn woman who wanted to do her best in everything.I think she's better suited to be a warrior than a leader, and she's going to have to do almost everything, which would be tiring.In comparison, the old orc shaman Zewang, who always stayed in the orc village and refused to come out, seemed much more relaxed.Karantso's body has completely recovered to the physical state of the previous peak, she used to be an orc female warrior, and her strength is almost the level of a fifth-level warrior of the human race, but now she is afraid that she has recovered to her original level, and her physical fitness is even better than before.She will inadvertently reveal some warrior fighting spirit, the tattoo of the wind wolf on her arm is more and more visible, and the texture lines are more vivid, I have lived in the orc tribe, and Kuzi has said that only orc warriors are qualified to tattoo the wind wolf, and this ink prepared by the tribal shaman elder is very special, the more powerful the warrior, the more vivid the color of the tattoo on the arm.There is a wolf's claw-like moire at the center of Kalancuo's eyebrows, and the moire on her face makes her soft face have a touch of heroism, and her chestnut dark skin is nourished by the warm climate of Xinliu Valley, and her face is covered with a layer of glossy color, and her big black and white eyes release the most sincere gaze.There was a large scar on her plump left breast, which ran diagonally down to the right and deep into her lower abdomen, near the mermaid line on the right.Her lips were a little thick, the bridge of her nose was straight, I was a little fascinated, thinking about what kind of battle she had experienced in the first place, so that she would leave such a scar on her body, when she thought about it, her hand unconsciously stretched out, when my fingertips touched her cold and elastic skin, I came to my senses, I was lost for a moment in front of this beautiful female orc, I was a little embarrassed for a while, I didn't know if I should take my hand away immediately, maybe I knew that I should move away immediately, But I am obsessed with the delicate and smooth feeling of her skin.She lowered her head, her pale brown face showing no change, and pressed my hand against her warm chest as I tried to pull my hand away.I was a little embarrassed and explained, "I'm just curious about what your scar looked like at the time!"
”"Left over from the battle with the gray dwarf bandits, it almost killed me."
She said to me lightly, with a faint sly smile in her eyes, and then gently broke the iron buckle on the bust with her other hand, and the hard bust suddenly cracked from the side and fell to the ground, she was under the armor, she was wearing nothing, her full chest suddenly jumped out of the halfarm, and the dark purple scar ran diagonally through her entire chest.I was stunned for a moment, my face was red to the base of my neck, I hurriedly withdrew my hand, turned around and ran down the valley in a panic, and then turned back to her and said, "Let's go to the valley below and say hello to the big tree!"
”Behind me, Karantso looked at me with a smile and a groan, slowly bent down to pick up the half-body armor on the ground, as if talking to himself, and as if whispering to me, "What are you afraid of, I am the slave you bought back!"
Obviously, you said you wanted to see the scar on your chest.Haha" I was like a koi tumbling in the sparkling clear water, splashing wildly.Holding my breath and diving into the bottom of the lake, I saw that there were green aquatic plants and small fish in the lake, these small fish with blue and black ridges did not seem to be very afraid of people, and when I swam beside them, they didn't even know how to dodge, as if they wanted to swim faster than me, and nimbly weave around me.The light in the lake is a little dim, probably because there is no sun in the sky in the valley.I took a dip in the lake in the circular valley, and it seemed like I hadn't swam so well in a long time.Coming out of the water, the droplets of water all over the body slid down like pearls, leaving a row of wet footprints on the fine white sand.Seeing Karantso sitting on the grass next to the sand, she looked up at me and asked, "You're only halfway there, I'd love to know the other half!"
”"This winter, I want to hunt these barbarians, capture them in the Willow Valley, and build us a castle!"
I looked up at the mountains in the distance with my eyes flickering, and I happened to see Luka the Minotaur next to the pile of stones, trying to pick up a huge stone, but it seemed that he was a little struggling, obviously not like a barbarian who could easily carry a stone, and I also secretly marveled in my heart, these barbarians with storm bears tattooed on their chests are really inherently powerful!"
Their strength is really strong, don't underestimate them, these barbarians suffered a big loss under your magic trap last year, it doesn't mean that they will make the same mistake this year, you must be careful!"
Karantso was still very sane and reminded me with some concern.I smiled and said to her, "We have to be careful!"
Me, and you and Karui, and one of my mage friends. ”I'm thinking of Morayal at the moment, and with a wood mage like her, maybe hunting would be a lot easier.I said to Karantso, "Bring a few more savvy orcs, as long as they can throw throwing spears, and let's go hunting on the outskirts of El!"
”"We orcs have been throwing flying spears since birth, maybe we can make a batch of armor-piercing spears from the spear tips made by the blacksmith shop over there in the underground stronghold, and when those spear tips are forged, they are mixed with some magic red copper according to your will, did you have this plan at that time?"
Karantso looked at me in surprise and asked."
Otherwise, what do you think I made the hilts of those ironwood spears I made earlier?"
A smug smile flashed in my eyes, and then I took out a scroll from my bosom and unfolded it on the ground, drawing a short spear on the parchment, and some faint magic charms were engraved on the tip of the short spear, and then said to Karantso: "This is the pattern of the short spear of the wind that I am going to make, I will draw a wind magic charm on the tip of the spear, so that the short spear can be thrown farther" At this moment, my heart began to look forward to the slave hunt that would take place after the first snow.After all, I'm an Eagle from El City!
