110 Arrive at Black Gold Village
The shadow of Cologne Fort has disappeared into the mountains, and even the heavenly spring high above is nowhere to be seen.
Outside the borders of Fort Collogne, the Black Tulip Brigade can no longer receive supplies from the Manifest Destiny Alliance, but the villages along the way can still be replenished with food and fresh water.
For brigades on expeditions, trading in villages and towns along the way was a must. Food and fresh water are one of the reasons, but the more important reason is that bringing the materials and goods that the aborigines urgently need can greatly improve the favorability of the aborigines, which can not only provide a stable rear for themselves, but also complete the expansion tasks provided by the Destiny Alliance.
This is also the reason why a normal journey consumes many days.
However, the Black Tulip Brigade needs to complete the commission in the shortest possible time this time, so it is only a minimum transaction, after all, the trading items cannot be carried more, and most of the loads need to carry the consumables.
This time, the chosen path is no longer to go directly through the wasteland, although this can be done in the shortest way to reach the destination, but the endless stream of monsters and monsters in the wasteland will definitely bring losses to the convoy. No matter how strong Agni and the others were, it was impossible to take care of all the carriages.
Therefore, the convoy still followed the normal route, passing through several villages along the way, and then entering the wasteland and embarking on the ancient post road.
In order to ensure the physical strength of the horses, they would rest for a certain amount of time when they reached a village, and they would stop and stop until the afternoon, when they approached the last village, Heijin Village.
"Leader, the venue has been contacted!" A midshipman rode his horse toward the convoy.
Scouts and knights need to act as a leader at this time, and it is often the scouts who contact the camp in advance and then guide the convoy to the station. After all, it is easy for such a powerful armed group to approach a village without permission.
Julien nodded, then stood up and said loudly, "Black Gold Village is coming!" Cheer up! After lunch in Black Gold Village, it's time to enter the wasteland! ”
The members of the thirty carriages responded one after another, put down the entertainment equipment in their hands, and began to organize their equipment.
The same goes for the Fire Three.
"Ahh Black Gold Village is coming! Put it away, put it away! Minter heard the voice of Captain Julien, and hurriedly threw the poker in his hand into the card pile, and then ripped off the note that was full of pasted on his face.
"Sister! You're playing tricks again! It was a puffed out Amelia who spoke, and she didn't have a few notes on her little head, apparently in terms of IQ, a silly girl had lost to her sister.
"Ahem...... Agni quietly threw the cards into the pile, and said, "Miss Mint, I'm about to win." ”
He didn't have as many faces as Minter, but they were a lot more than Amelia's. Obviously, the youngest in the hand were the two older ones who were hanging and beating.
Hearing him say this, Amelia turned her head to look at him again and said: "Brother Agni, the Q of hearts, the 10 of hearts and the ace of spades you want are all in my hole cards, and the only way to win is to get the ace of hearts, but the ace of hearts is in the stupid sister, she will never play this card!" ”
“……”“……”
The two of them, who felt that their IQ had been completely crushed, looked at the sky with embarrassed faces, pretending to sort out their equipment.
"Looks like it's almost lunch......
"yes, I'm a little hungry......"
The two of them were older brothers and sisters, so they fooled the past, and at the same time decided not to play this kind of game that requires IQ with Amelia again, and it was really no fun to be abused unilaterally!
The convoy moved forward slowly, and soon saw the Black Gold Village in front of it, and the huge convoy stopped in the open space in front of the village.
The local specialty of Black Gold Village is a black stone, which can be refined into crystals similar to magic crystals. Although the quality is not high, it is enough to support the lives of the villagers. This mineral is called black gold, which is also the origin of the name of the black gold village.
As a small village close to the wasteland, they don't have many resources, and as the only brigade that can make an expedition here, the Black Tulip Brigade has a lot of prestige in Black Gold Village, because they can always bring much-needed supplies to the village. As soon as the camp was settled, many villagers brought them food and hot soup.
The members of the group also greeted the villagers who knew each other one after another, and then had lunch happily.
It has been more than seven hours since the march began before dawn, and even if you can eat some dry food on the road, it is far from being as happy as hot food.
"It's still good to be from this village, the villages in front of us always like to play tricks with us, and often temporarily raise the price of food, it's really annoying!" Minter said as he ate on his hot food.
"Once we've crossed this village, we're going to march from the wasteland, right?" Agni also asked as he ate.
"Hmmm! If you go further, you will reach the territory of Fort Montenegro, which does not belong to the territory of the Mandate of Heaven Alliance, and the aborigines of this kind of place are much more fierce, even our Black Tulip Brigade does not dare to enter Fort Montenegro rashly. Minter replied, "The natives there are not as friendly as Cologneburg!" ”
