Chapter Twenty-Three: The Seven Brothers of the Bullhead

With the success of the first slave to be auctioned off and causing a small **, the atmosphere of the auction gradually increased. Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info didn't participate in any of the previous seventeen auctions, but he also saw it once for free - mage slaves, thief slaves, warrior slaves, elf slaves, and even sea clan slaves appeared.

"I guess everyone has heard of the Minotaur, but I wonder who has ever seen the Minotaur of the Septuplets?" With Anna's seductive voice, many people were interested, including Leitch.

Unlike the half-human, half-beast kobolds, the minotaurs are real orcs, and even one of the seven orc royal families is a minotaur. In fact, except for a pair of horns on the head, the rest of the minotaur is indistinguishable from the human type.

Septuplets are rare, let alone a species like the Minotaur that even has a brain full of muscles, which is really unimaginable.

With the sound of chains hitting the ground, seven tall minotaurs were escorted to the high platform. The height of these seven minotaurs is estimated to be about two meters two, and their appearance is more like a mold carving, but the minotaur in the middle has a black blindfold on his left eye.

Ricky was a little tempted, because these seven minotaurs all had the strength of demon slayers. The disadvantage is that the strongest one-eyed minotaur is only a third-level strength, and the bloodlines of several minotaurs are only low-level bloodlines, which means that their potential has come to an end.

"The starting price is 3,000 gold coins, and each increase is not less than 100!"

"Three thousand one!"

"Three thousand two!"

"Three thousand three!"

*******

"Four thousand!"

The already sparse few people who bid for these minotaurs, when Leitch shouted four thousand, the bidding was immediately terminated, and even many people looked at Leitch with idiotic eyes.

The salary of a demon slayer mercenary is ten gold coins a month, and seven mercenaries are 840 gold coins a year, and 4000 gold coins is equivalent to five years of employment. But in addition, it is necessary to equip these minotaurs with armor and weapons, be responsible for food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and the potential has reached the end of the year, and there is still the possibility of defection and death in battle during this period, so in the eyes of the vast majority of people, this deal is actually not cost-effective.

No matter what others thought in their hearts, after buying the seven minotaurs anyway, Leitch's heart suddenly became a lot more steady. After settling the bill, Retche returned to the Troll Mercenary Regiment with the seven Minotaurs.

In front of Niu Yi and them, Reich burned the seven slave contracts on the spot, according to his words: "I don't care what your past is, what I need is a warrior, a guardian knight!

Although Leitch bought the seven minotaurs, they were extremely indifferent to Leitch. followed Leqi back to the troll mercenary group, but he didn't expect Leitch to come out like this all of a sudden.

Leitch is undoubtedly taking a risk, in fact, it is not a helpless move, he needs to use too many henchmen now, but where does he get henchmen, so Leitch can only hope for the "king's qi", even if he fails, he will only lose some gold coins.

Although the Minotaur is known for their dull brains, they can still understand the meaning of Reich's words, and they don't treat them as slaves, and even give them the status of guardian knights, which is like pie in the sky for them. Led by the one-eyed minotaur, the seven minotaur brothers take the oath of knighthood to Retch.

"I, Niu Yi, swear in the name of the beast god Spark, and pledge allegiance to Baron Leitch Alec!"

"I'm a cow two *******"

"I'm a cow and three ******"

After the seven minotaurs took the oath, Richie breathed a sigh of relief. Taking an oath in the name of the beast god is undoubtedly the most solemn oath in the concept of the orcs. As for their strange names, after understanding, it turned out that Niu Yi and they did not know who their biological father was, because they were only the product of a rape, and their mother, who died in childbirth when she gave birth to them, was taken in by a kind old orc, so that they would not die at birth.

However, their life in the realm of the Seven Kings was not easy, their tragic background made them discriminated against among the orcs, after the death of the old orcs, they were only ten years old at the time they were captured as slave miners, and later, after successfully escaping, they became robbers****** and a year earlier, they were unfortunately slaves again.

Leitch was also not worried that a few minotaurs would defect, and in the Federation, the punishment for defecting slaves after being caught was extremely severe - perhaps almost perverted, the Dawson people themselves were not slaves, but they did not resent the existence of slaves outside the Federation, and even the punishment for slaves was extremely harsh.

Moreover, the living environment that Leitch brought to several Minotaurs was simply earth-shaking, you must know that although the guardian knight did not have a fief, he was actually half a nobleman, and he didn't need to kneel and salute when he saw other nobles - this kind of life was simply a dream for Niu Yi!

Leitch now sits in the territory of Black Wind, and he already has the power to issue nameplates to the citizens under his jurisdiction, so Leitch took a few minotaurs to the office of Thunderman City to reissue the nameplate - Black Wind City, Guardian Knight. This means that Niu and the others will no longer be low-status slaves from now on, but free citizens with the status of knights! When they walked out of the office, several big men and women even secretly wiped away their tears, and their eyes were full of infinite gratitude to the not tall and strong figure walking in front.

Next, Leitch took Niu and a few people to the "Flaming Hammer" blacksmith shop to buy armor and weapons. The "Hammer of Flame" blacksmith shop is the largest blacksmith shop in Thunderman City, which was settled in Thunderman City 2,000 years ago and was founded by a blacksmith grandmaster. The Flame Hammer's weapon armor is quite cost-effective, and it is very popular in Thunderman City.

In fact, it is undoubtedly more cost-effective to buy within the union, but unfortunately, there are only union-standard armor and weapons within the union, and these are only qualified to be purchased and used by union members, so Leitch can only sigh with hope.

Niu Yiqi chose double-sided axes, heavy armor, a tabula rasa bronze double-sided axe costs 100 gold coins, and a set of tabula rasa bronze heavy armor costs 200 gold coins, although in the end the blacksmith shop owner gave a nine-fold discount, and erased the odds, but also spent 1800 gold coins from Leqi. Thinking of the money bag that had been severely depleted, Leitch finally realized how much money the Knights were burning for this thing. Compare the 30,000 Thunderman Knights with ebony equipment of the Grand Duke of Lei Man****** forget it, it is purely self-inflicted.

With armor and weapons, in the end, Leitch also equipped Niu and a few people with a good horse that traveled 500 miles a day. Coupled with weapons and armor, the weight of each person is nearly 1,000 catties, and ordinary horses can't move at all. The purchase of these seven good stallions cost Leitch another 700 gold coins, and now, Leitch only has more than 2,000 gold coins left on his body. This makes Leitch feel like he has fallen from a well-off to a well-off person, but fortunately, he still has territory******

After telling Karl and them, Reich took his Guardian Knights, the Knights of the Black Wind, and set out on their way to his territory, the Knights of the Black Wind, albeit with only seven men.

The Black Wind Territory was more than a thousand miles away from Lei Man City, about seven hundred square kilometers. Seven hundred square kilometers is equivalent to a radius of about thirty miles, of course, the Black Wind Territory cannot be a regular circle, just as the Lei Man Territory has more than seven million square kilometers, which is equivalent to a circle of three thousand miles, and the Lei Man Territory cannot be a regular circle. There is a small city under the rule of the Black Wind Territory, the Black Wind City, which has a population of about 20,000, and there are more than 30 villages under its jurisdiction, close to 40,000 villagers. In total, there were about 60,000 people under Leitch.

The Black Wind Territory is located on the edge of the Endless Sea, with a coastline of more than a hundred miles, and even Black Wind City is on the seaside. However, the most famous of the Black Wind Territory is the Black Wind Mountains, a small iron ore vein more than ten miles long, and the ore veins are still open-air, when the wind blows, the rolled up iron ore forms a black wind, so that mountain range is also called the Black Wind Mountains.

This unique condition makes the Black Wind Territory also a top existence in the Barony's Domain, which was controlled by the Locke family to which Larry belonged for nearly three hundred years, but he didn't expect to be deprived of his territory and title when he came to Larry. Even Leitch's predecessor was imprisoned for more than twenty days with Larry's father, Baron Locke, and from this point of view, Leitch and the Locke family are also very *******

At a speed of three hundred miles a day (a good breed horse travels five hundred miles a day, that is when carrying ordinary people), after four days of walking, he finally reached the edge of the Black Wind Territory. At this time, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this kind of life of eating and sleeping in the open is really unpleasant.

This area happens to be a valley, called the Valley of the Windless, and the terrain is relatively narrow, which is simply an excellent place for ambush - as soon as Leitch thought this, there was a sudden sound in the air that broke through the air!

"Whew!"

An arrow shadow shot towards Leitch at a terrifying speed, and at the same time, dozens of figures appeared on both sides of the mountain road, and Larry, who Lekie was familiar with, was standing at the front, looking at Leitch with a cruel smile on his face.

When Niu Yi and the others saw this scene, their eyes were cracked, and Niu Yi roared angrily and drove the horse forward to block in front of Leqi!
