Chapter 197: Let's End Here
"You're doing a great job!" Locke played with the glittering gold ore in his hand and nodded, "I've changed my mind." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Perhaps, I left your race to help us more." ”
"Oh! Thank God! Your Lord! You'll be glad you decided today! The kobold Golden Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and he climbed down from the alchemy platform, hunched over as he spoke.
"I, Blueskin Goldfang, an alchemist with dragon blood, lord of the Golden Cave, now to the Great Lord of Humanity..."Golden Fang looked up at Locke and asked, "I'm sorry, my lord, I don't know your name yet." ”
"Rock Harvey!"
"Oh. A great last name! Goldtooth tried to make a smile with his mouth open, patting Locke's ass.
"I, Blueskin Goldfang, an alchemist with dragon blood, lord of the Golden Cave, and now swear allegiance to Locke Harvey, the High Lord of Humanity, and I will serve you forever as Lord and saddle your horse and horse."
Dragonblood? Which eyeless dragon would go OOXX your mother? Hearing this, Locke also had to complain.
The kobold bowed his body solemnly and expressed these words clearly in the lingua franca.
After saying that, the kobold Golden Tooth did not get up, he was still waiting for Locke's next move.
Locke looked inexplicably, he was very unfamiliar with this form.
"Legionnaire, if you accept his allegiance. Then, pull out your sword and tap it on his shoulders to the left and right. Otherwise, you don't need to. Paul looked at Locke and reminded, but he still spoke his mind, "But I want you to be careful, they're not as docile as they seem. ”
Locke nodded, he looked at the kobold who was still bowing there, he didn't mean to draw his sword.
"Get up, Goldfang." Locke replied, and Goldtooth looked up in frustration, "I can't take a kobold as my servant, but your role is still important to me, I can shelter you and your tribe, but in return, you and your tribe will work for me, find and dig for me, all the minerals you can find!" ”
"And I'm going to make all the mineral caves you find your territory."
"Oh?! Are you sure? Golden Fang jumped up excitedly, "You mean, you're not going to kill me, and my tribe." If I served you, you would give me those caves too?! ”
"Yes!" Locke nodded, "The premise is that you will dig up all the minerals in it to me, and I will provide you with the daily necessities." ”
"That's no problem at all!" Goldtooth said happily.
Locke turned to look at his surroundings once more, the glowing rock walls, the gold ore in the middle of the hall, and the glittering nuggets of gold beneath his feet.
"Sergeant, take someone to watch here, don't leave. Your soldiers are excellent, and I trust them. Locke said to the old sergeant behind him.
The old sergeant had a surprised smile on his face, and he nodded vigorously, giving Locke a salute excitedly.
"Major Paul, let's go up first, it's too stuffy here!"
Under the opening of the way by the guards, a group of people hurried towards the surface, and this dark space made people feel a sense of oppression.
Soon, they came to the surface. At the entrance to the cave, Locke stopped. He covered his eyes and slowly adjusted to the light in the sun outside before stepping out.
Outside, the group of kobolds were still crushed in the encirclement, and they were all lying on their stomachs in the grass, one by one, languishing and avoiding the sun's rays.
Behind the soldiers, Shiloh with the soldiers of the logistics wing had also arrived.
"Shiloh, there's a lot of gold down here! The amount is incalculable for the time being, and this is an important source of our coins, so we must treat them with caution. ”
Locke pointed to the kobolds in the encirclement and said to Hillock and Paul, "These kobolds are our main mining force, and with them to mine, our people will be able to reduce the damage they will suffer." ”
"Paul, in the future, a wing of soldiers will be stationed in this area, and a cordon and checkpoint will be set up within a radius of five kilometers to control this area."
"These kobolds, though they are now serving us. However, the nature of their beast does not change, so it needs to be prevented in advance. While they are mining below, send a large number of soldiers down to supervise them. Remember, there must be more soldiers in charge of monitoring than there are them. ”
"Also, the number of them must be controlled, no more than 400 at most. Finally, I'll leave it to you here. Locke looked at Shiloh and Paul, "I won't say much about their numbers, you can start with the needs of daily life and other aspects. ”
"Shiloh, I hope to have our monetary system in place as soon as possible. It is best to find a way to set up a bank and rely on the bank to settle the salaries and salaries of the citizens and soldiers. At the same time, we should also seek out those who are business-minded among our soldiers, or recruit merchants from outside, and set up trade caravans to link up with the trade of the nearest region. ”
Locke looked at Shiloh with a smile, "Now, you are the big butler of our Fifth Legion, and we won't have anything to eat if we leave you!" ”
Shiloh smiled in response, "I'm used to your burden-throwing behavior, Captain, and it's nothing surprising to me. Thankfully, the Light has been helping me fight fatigue and laziness, otherwise I would have been picking on myself. ”
In the evening, Locke returned to Iva with some of the soldiers of the logistics wing, accompanied by a dozen carts of gold and a large number of spider corpses.
The gold would be transported directly to the vault next to Locke Town Hall, and the spider corpses would be encountered in different places.
The spider's eight hairy thighs are cut off by the chefs, who will crush the carapace on the outside and take out the white and delicate tender meat on the inside to make delicious food.
The silk of the spider's mouthparts will be taken by the tailors and used as raw materials to be used in the future to make clothes with other special abilities.
The spider's belly will be peeled open by the skinner, and there is something inside, which is a good thing for some of the scouts in the Scout Wing. The poison sac, the venom inside is an essential ingredient for the scouts to craft poison.
When Locke returned to the town hall in high spirits, he saw a figure that was both missing and scared.
Norris, the High Elf, was sitting in the hall of the town hall, looking through the books on the table,
"Hey!" Locke smiled awkwardly as he dug at the golden hair on his head. "You're back?"
Locke leaned behind Nolis and gave Noris a shoulder slap, "How's it going over there?" ”
Norris turned to look at him with a smile on her face, and Locke became even more embarrassed by her expression.
He blushed and bowed his head, no longer looking at Noris's blue eyes.
"If I don't come back, my men don't know how many more sisters they want to bring back!" Although Norris said it with a smile, Locke felt a chill deep in his bone marrow from his words.
"Say it! How did you guys get on that! Norris got up from her chair, her neck tilted from side to side and leaned back against the command table, looking at Locke. If it weren't for my scouts who reported this information to me, wouldn't you have told me? ”
Locke lowered his head and didn't say a word.
"And the stupidest thing is me, I didn't believe what the scout said at first!" Norris scoffed, "I believe in your feelings for me so much!" ”
"I'm out there, risking my life to spy on you from the ruins of Lordaeron! And what you repay me for this is to climb into her bed! Noris's tone grew colder, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so she spoke unceremoniously to Locke.
"Look at the High Lord Mograini! Look at Grand Commander Dassault Khan! Look at the Great General Abidis again! Which of them is not loyal to the family! Why are you so flowery?! ”
"Are you really a bobcat in heat?! Can't you live without a woman?! Are you still a paladin?! How can there be a paladin like you who is shameless and plays with women's feelings! Could it be that the Light is so encouraging you to provoke other women? ”
"You disappointed me so much, I thought you were a man to be trusted." Norris looked at him, a look of disappointment on her face.
She turned and grabbed something on the table, "You're doing it yourself, let's finish here!" Immediately, the elf girl strode out of the town hall.
Locke didn't say a word the whole time, he looked up at the ceiling and was silent for a long time.
The guards standing guard outside the room watched the angry Norris rush out of the town hall, and they all stood motionless in fright.
You know, their Guards Company is hanging under the Scout Wing, and Norris is their direct boss.
They had heard all the words that Norris had said angrily to Locke, but they didn't care whether it was right or wrong, they thought that the Legion Commander had a good temper, and even if he was scolded like this, he didn't say anything.
What's more, in their opinion, a person with such a status as the commander of the legion will definitely have a big title in the future, and it is too normal to have a few lovers, why would their wing captain be so angry. If this was before, what woman would dare to speak so to her man?
In the room, Locke let out a sulk, he didn't want to explain anything, things had already happened, he had done something wrong, and he should have been scolded by her, but what he didn't expect was that this elf girl had such a violent temper and directly proposed to break up!
Break up, just break up, those scenes in the past, just take them as your own good memories.
Locke pulled the chair Noris had just sat in and sat down, and he looked down at the table, where a large, detailed map of the Forsaken forces in the ruins of Lordaeron was spread out on the table.
