Chapter 62: The Second Bandit Regiment
"Yo, it's the Wizard Krezer! I just talked to Mr. Dega Woody about you! Tell me what the Dragon War was all about! We'd all love to know what happened!" Captain Leon suggested with a smile on his face, looking at Krezer catching up. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The Slayer Diga Woody, who walked side by side with him, also looked at Krazer with a curious expression, hoping to hear more about the dragon's attack on the city from the mouth of this witness, after all, the dragon attack on the city is rare. And after a brief exchange, he also knew that the young man, like him, was not trying his best, and he hoped to find some clues in the story told by Krezer.
"Hehe, actually, there's nothing to say, the protagonist of that battle is not me, but the legendary Magister of Cian in Fernando City and two orc mercenaries, I just came up with ideas on the side. Krezer lightly brushed the matter aside, putting the main credit on the Magister Sean and the two orc mercenaries, of course, because of course it was related to the orc Diga Woody in front of him.
"Sean Legendary Magister, are you talking about the Sean Pan Legendary Magister who works at the Fernando Academy of Magic?" After listening to Kraser's account, Captain Leon blurted out without even thinking about it.
Krezer nodded slightly.
"I really didn't expect Sean Legendary Magister to also participate in that dragon battle! I have heard that there is an Earth Archmage in Fernando City who has won the title of Legend, named Sean Penn, it is said that this Earth Legendary Magister is very famous in the imperial capital! I didn't expect that Krazer Magician, you can have the honor to fight side by side with him, it's really enviable!" Captain Leon looked at Kraser with envy as he spoke.
"Are there any orcs in the battle? Can you tell me about it? Krezer mage, I'm very interested in the two orc mercenaries you mentioned! I really didn't expect that we orcs could also participate in this battle. In contrast, the Slayer Dega Woody was more concerned about the two orc mercenaries.
"I'm ashamed to have not known their names until now, but I know that one of them is the ultimate sacrifice of the Scales, and the other is a Minotaur warrior of the Halfling. Originally, I wanted to talk to the two of them after the matter was over, but they were too busy buying food for the winter for their tribe, so the matter was over. Seeing the Killer Diga Woody look of urgency, Kraser glanced at him and smiled.
"As far as I know, the only people who worry about winter food are those small orc tribes, they don't have the money to buy so much food, even if there are enough gold coins, as soon as we orcs show their intention to buy a large amount of food, damn grain merchants will take the opportunity to raise the price, so we orcs can only live on food and clothing every winter, but just like this, we orcs will still starve to death every winter. Diga Woody the Slayer had a helpless expression on his face as he said this, and from his face, Krazer saw an expression similar to that of the dwarf Camosiddo.
"I just said that one of the rewards of Fernando's mission is to promise each of us a condition within our ability, so this is the fundamental purpose of the two orcs to participate in this mission that is almost impossible to return, they went with the determination to die, this is what I admire the two of them the most, if it weren't for the appearance of the powerful and powerful man of the Demon Mentor Sean, they would have died. Kratzer looked at the Killer Dega Woody with ulterior motives, and sure enough, the latter couldn't wait to ask as he thought.
"Are you saying that the two orc mercenaries went for the promise of Lord Fernando?How is it possible, what kind of promise is worth the life?" the killer Diga Woody stared at Kraser's face in order to see something from it.
"As you say, it's food for the winter! The condition for them is to buy all the bounty of the mission and buy it at half price, that's all. Moreover, the Lord of Fernando had agreed to their request and had a steward accompany him in this matter, so that they could buy whatever food they needed in Fernando City and the surrounding towns. I think at the moment, they are not worried about not being able to buy food, but about how to get food security back. Looking at the slayer Diga Woody with an eager look on his face, Krazer looked in the direction of Fernando City and slowly told the truth.
In fact, he is not optimistic about the actions of the two orc mercenaries, after all, they are orcs, and they buy such a large batch of food in the human realm, this is not an obvious way to tell humans, this is the food that our orcs need to survive the winter, come and grab it, and to return the food from Fernando City to the orc tribe in the northern ice field, not to mention all kinds of troubles that will be encountered on the way, but this long distance is the first difficulty between the two, after all, the space ring is not a rare treasure that everyone can have, so Krazer will have thisγ
"What are you talking about?, will there be problems with food delivery?" said the killer, Diga Woody, looking at Krazer in disbelief.
"Almost! Because of the dragon's attack on the city, the city lord is not going to send an escort for them, and they need to send the news of the food they bought back to the tribe, which also takes time, so I don't need to talk about the time wasted back and forth! β
But just then, Kratzer suddenly stopped the topic and looked up at the shadows in the distance. Just as Captain Leon and the orc Diga Woody were confused about the halfway point of Kraser's words, a harsh and arrogant voice was heard in the distance.
"Yo-ho-ho-ho, wild dogs, are you going to be the watchdog of this group again?"
With this arrogant remark, a short man who was not much taller than the dwarf, with two mustaches under his nose, took the lead in stepping out of the shadows of the cliffs on both sides, and sarcastically said loudly, and his sharp and piercing voice made Krezer frown involuntarily when he heard it.
"Well, I thought it was you, a short man who never grew up! Why didn't you stay in that mouse hole of yours and run out? I know, rats only act at night, because they don't dare to come out to meet people during the day, haha! Come on, come on, Uncle Ben here happens to have what you want most, the mysterious potion that can make you grow taller again, it is said to be very effective! Looking at the short man standing in the way, the killer Diga Woody said disdainfully as he rolled over and dismounted, apparently he didn't take the short man who suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"What are you talking about? You damn kobold! Uncle Ben just wants to eat some dog meat tonight to make up for it. Apparently height was the sore spot of this short man, he stretched out his long tongue and licked his lips, a pair of small eyes that exuded bloodlust without concealment, and his hands were placed on his waist, where hung two sharp daggers thirty centimeters long, and at this moment it seemed to tremble slightly with the beating of his master's ten fingers, like the fangs of a poisonous snake that chooses to devour people.
"Try it!" I lose my appetite when I see you in front of me, and I don't look at your height, it's just a little bit higher than my knees, and I can't even reach my head when I stand and let you hit you, you damn dwarf!"
"You're still so good-mouthed, kobold, you still want to try whether my dagger is sharp or not! I'm almost healed from the last injury!" the short man drew the dagger from his waist and gestured at the Killer Diga Woody Void, as if choosing where to stab. "Do you want to taste what my sharp dagger will taste on you?"
"It's really interesting, why don't you and I warm up first?! I can't ask for it!" With a bang, the killer Diga Woody immediately drew his scimitar and stared at his opponent with a fierce expression.
As the two confronted, the atmosphere in the narrow valley became tense, and at this time, Captain Leon was helpless against the provocative actions of the killer Diga Woody, the matter here was beyond his control, and now he did not even dare to make some big moves, for fear of attracting the attention of the short man.
As the confrontation between the two became longer and longer, and the two of their subordinates became more and more uneasy in this tense atmosphere, and some even drew their sidearms, and for a while there was a taste of a war that was about to break out. But at this moment, a slender young man in hard cowhide armor suddenly flashed from behind the short man, and he did not hesitate to cross between the two, first staring at the killer Diga Woody, and then leaning down and whispering in the short man's ear.
"Chief, don't forget our real mission tonight, you don't need to worry about this wild dog, after tonight, there will be a chance to clean him up!"
The short man heard this, as if he remembered something, and put it away and looked at Diga Woody to the side. "Count yourself lucky, Lao Tzu has something to do today, this matter Lord Ben will let you go, we will have a long life in the future!"
"Oh! It's the deputy head of the disco! I haven't seen you for a long time, how can you still be the deputy head of this dwarf, with your ability, you can already do it on your own!" said the killer Diga Woody as he looked at the man in front of him without surprise.
The young man whom the slayer Diga Woody called Disco just glanced at him, did not speak, and walked straight into the shadows on the side of the cliff, and as he moved, the robbers of the restless Hyena Bandit also fell silent.
"You don't have to sow discord here, disco is my trusted subordinate, you goddamn wild dog!" the short man exclaimed.
"Yes, congratulations, congratulations on finally finding a man who knows how to use his brain! Anyway, it's already dark, why don't you get out of your mouse hole!" asked Diga Woody with his nostrils.
"What does it matter to you if I don't go back? I can't go out for a walk after I eat too much for dinner! I'm not like you filthy orcs, I can't even eat enough, what's the matter, I don't accept you to bite me!" the short man retorted.
"Hey, hey, that's interesting, then you take a slow walk, I'm going to pass!Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way!" said Diga Woody as he retracted his twin knives.
"Well, if you want to go over, you can bring me the toll!" the short man rightfully stretched out his hand to Captain Leon, who had stood aside for a long time without speaking.
Seeing that the tense atmosphere between the two had eased, Captain Leon breathed a sigh of relief, finally not having to be involved in this inexplicable fight, and paying a certain toll was a necessary condition, which was the rule that the caravans had obeyed in the past. So, Captain Leon didn't seem surprised at all when he made this request to the short man, and he stepped forward and said with a smile.
"You're the famous Hyena Captain Wright! Wait a minute, I'll get it for you!"
With that, Captain Leon strode towards the carriage where the Jersey boss was.
"Looks like this guy is very sensible!Much stronger than you!Hahaha!" The short man, whom Captain Leon called Captain Wright, laughed out loud.
But in the face of Hyena Wright's provocation, the killer Diga Woody just glanced at him and didn't speak, and instead turned his gaze to the hyena bandits hiding in the darkness behind him, a pair of brown eyes kept rolling around, not knowing what to pay attention to in their hearts. Captain Leon, on the other hand, walked briskly to the carriage, leaned down, lowered his head, lowered his voice, and recounted what had happened, looking at the two who were still facing each other from time to time.
But this time, the boss of Jersey happily took out a bag of gold coins, threw it directly to Captain Leon without asking, waved his hand, signaled him to solve the matter in front of him quickly, and then retracted into the carriage and did not show up. Glancing at the extremely cheerful Jersey boss in surprise, Captain Leon took the money bag and walked quickly towards the killer Diga Woody and Hyena Wright, who were facing each other.
"Captain Wright, this is the toll you wanted, please smile!" Captain Leon smiled as he handed the money bag to the hyena Wright.
"That's it, double it for me, and I'll give him as much as you give this wild dog, even if it's an extra gold coin!!" Hyena Wright opened the money bag and gave it a casual look, then he tossed the money bag and squinted at the killer Diga Woody.
"I don't even want a single gold coin, dwarf, can I give you a gold coin!hahaha!" Hearing the hyena Wright's request, the killer Diga Woody looked unsurprised, and he looked at his opponent teasingly with a playful expression.
"You're going to lie to the devil about that! You poor bastard don't want money? Are you like you and I'm a dog's brain! Stop talking nonsense, double it for me. Hyena Wright tilted his head and looked at Captain Leon and said.
"That Mr. Wright, this is all the gold coins we can come up with, because we changed lanes temporarily to take this road, so the gold coins are really not much to prepare, please forgive me, and please look at the face of our Chamber of Commerce president, let us go, we will make up the gold coins we owe this time in the future, what do you think!" Captain Leon smiled as he pointed to the Chamber of Commerce badge imprinted on his armor.
