Chapter 173: The Centaur Strikes
Chapter 173: The Centaurs are coming
It took a whole morning to gather the staff, after all, in addition to the manpower, there were also tools to prepare for the excavation. So, in the afternoon, the four of Vane and Teddy, with Lawrence and hundreds of minotaurs following him, came to the foot of the mountain in their hands in search of various wooden and stone tools.
Locate the spell that was performed in Vane, after determining the location of the excavation. Vane turned to Lawrence and said, "Ten meters wide should be enough for you to pass, right?" β
"Ten meters is enough, but why not make it wider?" Lawrence heard Vane nod, and then asked with some confusion.
"It's simple, when you move over, we're going to have to plug this passage back up. You don't want those centaurs to follow you through this passage, do you? Vane explained to Lawrence with a smile.
"I see." Lawrence said, scratching his waist.
Since there was no problem, Vane began to unleash the spell of turning fossils into mud, and under Vane's precise control, the range that should have been fifty meters in diameter was turned into a dirt passage ten meters wide and a distance of about one hundred and fifty meters high.
When Vane finished casting the spell, Lawrence waved his hand, and the minotaur with various guys behind him began to dig up where the spell had been cast. Unbeknownst to Vane, the area they had chosen had a vein of ore that had been unearthed in addition to the dirt when the Minotaurs dug a hundred meters deep.
These metal minotaurs knew each other, but they did not have the forging skills themselves, so they had to collect them and tie suitable ones to wood instead of stone.
Seeing the metal, the wooden or stone tools used by the minotaurs were excavated, and Vane, who felt that the progress was not very satisfied, immediately used the transformation spell to make a lot of metal tools and sent them to the minotaurs who were digging, and Vane also found Lawrence and said: "Lawrence, you find a few smart minotaurs, and I will teach you how to forge metal objects." β
"What? Wayne. When Barka heard Vane's words, he was immediately surprised: "You can forge?" β
"Nothing less." Vane turned to Barka and Anna and Kalia, who were also confused, and said, "Didn't I stay with Walker all the time when Walker helped me forge my equipment?" At that time, I learned a little bit of the basics. β
Lawrence listened to Vane and realized that Vane did know something about blacksmithing, so he happily ran back to the tribe to report to his grandfather. It was up to his grandfather to make the decision, but Lawrence didn't think his grandfather would refuse the offer, after all, it was something the Minotaur had always wanted to learn.
Sure enough, when Lawrence returned, he was accompanied by several young minotaurs, who were going to learn blacksmithing from Vane.
Over the next few years, Vane solved the problem of the Minotaur's survival and taught the Minotaur about blacksmithing. In return and for helping the Minotaur (prestige), both the Shaman Elder and the Druid Elder were dedicated to explaining to Vane their shamanic and druid ways.
Of course, this is not a legacy, Vane is a mage, which has been recognized by the Minotaur elders, since he is already a mage who uses arcane arts, then even if they explain it in detail, Vane can learn at most one or two, and it is impossible to learn from their inheritance. Therefore, neither elder was defenseless against Vane. So, in just over 20 days, with the help of the system, Vane easily learned everything.
In the past twenty days, the minotaurs have been digging the passage constantly, although their strength is very strong and their endurance is also very high, but the daily excavation progress is only less than a hundred meters away, and Vane casts spells twice every three days on average, so that it will take about a month to dig through the entire passage.
In addition, there are already minotaurs who have begun to learn the technology of blacksmithing, but they have just begun to learn, and it is very shallow knowledge, and it is very difficult for them to forge a complete object, and the weapons and armor are even weaker. But it's all moving in a good direction, isn't it?
"Toot-tootββγ" On this day, Vane finished casting the spell again, and suddenly a heavy horn sounded from within the tribe.
Hearing the sound of the horn, all the minotaurs who were digging immediately put down their work and ran towards the place where the horn sounded with all kinds of guys.
"What's going on?" Vane and Barka and Kalia and Anna looked at each other, and then looked at the hurried backs of the minotaurs in a little inexplicable.
"Whatever it is, let's go ahead and see." At this time, Kalia was the first to propose.
"Yes, let's go over and have a look." Vane nodded.
As soon as Vane finished speaking, Barka rushed out with Teddy in the lead, while Vane, Kalia, and Anna ran after him towards the place where the horn sounded.
When he came to the place where the horn sounded, he saw Lawrence's grandfather wearing thick leather armor covering his entire body, and holding a metal spear carved with a large number of runes in his hand. Behind him, the Shaman Elder and the Druid Elder both held wooden staffs and wore tight-fitting leather armor.
Vane: They were here when Lawrence's grandfather was speaking to all the minotaurs. "Tribesmen, we have found hope that we will soon be able to free ourselves from the harassment of those evil centaurs. But at this critical moment, these abominable centaurs found our tracks. Just now, the patrolling warriors have reported that a large number of centaurs are coming towards us, and everyone knows the consequences of being caught by those centaurs, so now tell me, what should we do? β
The speech was not flashy, but it was just a description of the situation they were facing. However, it was this kind of speech that did not have much contagion, which made the minotaurs below indignant and shouted angrily: "Kill them all." Kill them all. β
"It's scary." Kalia and the others stood behind the Minotaur and hid behind Vane timidly.
Anna couldn't hold back her expressionless appearance at this time, her face became a little pale, and there was a look of fear in her eyes.
Seeing the look in Anna's eyes and her pale face, Barka reached out and hugged Anna's shoulder and said to Anna, "Don't worry, Teddy and I will protect you." Do not worry. β
Hearing Barka's words, Anna turned her head to look at Barka, and then her face quickly returned to its original form, her expression changed back to its original seriousness, and the fear in her eyes gradually dissipated. Then he said to Barka in a flat tone: "Thank you, what should we do now?" β
"I don't know about that." Barka scratched his head: "I guess I should help the Minotaur win." After all, centaurs are cannibals, and we will be eaten if we are caught. β
