Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Half-Elf Tribe
"Damn, saved a group of half-elves."
In addition to the handsome face and slightly different ears from ordinary people, the appearance of the half-elf is almost the same as that of humans.
And Kreman felt a little worthless at this time that he was saving a group of half-elves, and this world is more particular about a non-self race, and his heart must be different.
These half-elves, who live in the depths of the Ironwood Forest and don't pay taxes to their lords, are certainly not very popular with Kleiman.
If it had been discovered that this group of hunted down guys were a group of half-elves, Kreman probably wouldn't have gone head-to-head with the ogre by losing a dozen good hands.
Al the half-elf, who was about to express his gratitude to Kleiman, was a little embarrassed at this time.
The words in his mouth were blocked back alive, and he found that Kleiman looked at it again, and could only show a polite but embarrassed smile.
Looking at Al in front of him and the dozens of half-elves he saved, Kleiman also had a little headache, the lords of the Northland had more or less dealt with half-elves,
Although these guys are not physically as strong as ordinary humans, they are accurate in archery and more grouped, and they are thorns compared to human farmers, and they are not easy to manage, and they are generally not popular with human lords.
"My lord, I hope to become a lord of my lordship."
Kleiman was stunned when he heard this, and instinctively wanted to refuse, these guys are not easy to manage, and if they are in a hurry, they will put a big beach for you to drill into the woods, and it is impossible to chase them out of the woods.
"We are the only ones left in our tribe, we will pay taxes according to the regulations in the future, and we can also join the army of adults, we are all the best archers."
Although Alcha's ability to read words and colors was average, Kreman's disgust for the half-elves was almost written on his face, and he quickly added that he wanted to show Kleiman the value of his tribe.
But apparently Al has not yet figured out who is really in charge of this territory, but due to Al's interference, Kleiman remembered that it was Richard who was in charge of this territory, and did not directly say his refusal.
"I can't be the master of this matter, come back to Ironwood City with me, and if Lord Richard agrees to take you in, you can stay."
"Let's go, come back to Ironwood City with me first, and I have to ask you about some things."
After leaving some soldiers to continue to monitor the marginal woodland, Kleiman slowly walked towards Ironwood City with Al and the others.
Naturally, Al didn't have any opinions, beckoning the few dozen remaining clansmen to follow behind Kleiman.
There was nothing to say all the way, the half-elves were very dull, and although they had just escaped for their lives, almost all of them had relatives who died at the hands of ogres, and the entire tribe had no one in ten.
Al tried to talk to Kleiman several times, wanting to know the basic situation of Hunter Ling, but unfortunately Kleiman was not very willing to take care of Al.
The morale of Nader's cavalry was not bad, and although they lost some manpower, they killed several ogres, which was a big victory, and according to Richard's style, there should be a fair reward.
As for the dead? I'm sorry that there are no dead people in war, this group of northland cavalry who licked blood from their swords have long been accustomed to life and death.
Although it was still spring, the midday sun was really a bit sunny, and the cavalry under Kleiman was fine, only a little sweaty, and the spirit was quite strong. And the half-elf carried by Al had already fled all night, and at this time there was already a precursor that could not be supported.
But fortunately, Ironwood City is not too far away.
"Ah, it's here."
Kleiman pointed to the ironwood city in front of him with his horsewhip, which was the only thing Kleiman said to Al.
Al naturally also saw the city in the distance, the half-elf's vision is still above that of humans, although Ironwood City is not a majestic city, but Al has no knowledge, Ironwood City is really a great city in his eyes.
"Master Richard, Kleiman, they're back."
"Well, let's go and have a look."
Soon after Kleiman brought Al and the others into the city, Richard took the initiative to find them.
Richard had already learned of Kleiman's encounter with the ogre from his previous herald, and now needed more information.
"Lord Richard."
Kleiman saw Richard approaching him, and hurriedly dismounted and saluted, not that Kleiman had any loyalty to Richard,
But it is true that he has a certain respect for Richard's fairness, and with the bonus of more than a dozen knights under Richard, he can't help but be disrespectful.
"Hmm"
Richard nodded at Kleiman, then asked.
"Tell me more about what's going on."
Kleiman described the situation to Richard in detail,
From the time he encountered Al and other half-elves being chased and killed on patrol, to the time he led people to charge and drive the ogre back to the forest, he reported to Richard without falling.
Richard's brow furrowed as he listened, and his mind kept running.
It was clear that these ogres chasing the half-elves were not lonely, and they had only temporarily retreated to the Ironwoods.
Richard then turned his gaze to Al, the half-elf who was going to lead people to him.
Richard's eyes staring at Al were suddenly a little stunned, like that kind of direct gluttony, Al looked at Richard's eyes covered in hair, half-elves are naturally handsome, and men are no exception.
The disgusting habits of some human nobles have been heard of even if they live in the Ironwood Forest.
However, for the survival of his clan, Al had to salute Richard respectfully under Richard's hot gaze.
Richard didn't know that Al had misunderstood that he had a strange fetish, and he looked at Al with a change in his gaze because a page suddenly popped up in his mind.
Name: Al
Race: Half-Elf
Power: 3.7
Dexterity: 4.5
Constitution: 3.2
Spiritual: 4.2
Skills: Wood Spirit Breathing (Advanced), Bow (Master)
Specialty: Half-Elf Leader (has a strong appeal to Half-Elf, and the attack of the Half-Elf under his command is increased by 10%)
This is the second person Richard has seen in the indigenous people who have a heroic template, and these attributes are actually average in Richard's opinion.
Although the half-elves have the advantage of eyesight and archery, their shortcomings are also particularly obvious, their physique is generally weaker than that of humans, the population is not large, and they always have a unique pride of elves, and they are not very happy to be ruled by humans.
Of course, Al, a half-elf, should be able to recognize the current situation after suffering the scourge of extermination, and there should be no pride in it.
What really moved Richard was the second prompt of the system
"To trigger the barrier (elf) spawn condition, please place the main city of the barrier (elf)."
That's what really makes Richard's heart burn.
Richard didn't choose to release the main city of the fortress (elves) immediately, and it was still a bit eye-catching to release it in Ironwood City.
Richard first gladly accepted Al's offer and ordered the group of half-elves to settle down.
Then according to the rules, Kleiman and his subordinates were rewarded and credited, which caused a burst of cheers.
Though this is what they deserve,
It's just that they, as the cavalry of the Nader family, were originally mentally prepared to be treated differently, but Richard was a little surprised to be treated fairly.
This is probably how to reduce user expectations.
Even Kleiman was impressed by Richard's fairness.
Richard hurried away after announcing the reward, and the appearance of the main city of the Barrier (Elves) caused Richard to divert all his thoughts, and his mind was full of thoughts about how to place the main city of the Barrier (Elves).
