Chapter 118: Ethnic Culture Expert

...": The inhabitants of Gangwon were, of course, the dozens of dwarves and centaurs who were prisoners of war. Since the second "return to the heart of the elven kingdom, these unlucky guys who accept their fate have been very obedient, what the lord asks them to do, they will do it honestly, this period of time, they have been contributing to the construction of why Mondale Lord Lord did not sit and wait for the empire to help him build the territory, after communicating with Felix, Chen Jian gathered the idle people among the lords and began to carry out some projects within their ability, and as dwarves and centaur prisoners of war with free and strong labor, Naturally, he was also sent into battle by the lord.

However, like the previous big-eared monster prisoners of war, these guys have also tasted the benefits of obedience, and the lord has taken out his previous carrot and stick prisoner of war policy, and the dwarves and centaurs who know that they have no hope of returning to their homeland are also quite cooperative, so they now eat almost every meal well, and the lord will also improve their food from time to time for some ulterior purposes.

For example, on the day the new prisoners of war arrived, the dwarves and centaurs not only ate more than usual, but were also rewarded with some ale by the lord for their excellent work during this time.

This unbelievable situation and the smell of wine in the air made the eyes of the new POWs, who had not tasted alcohol for several years, straighten their eyes, and many of them swallowed in their throats, and the food they were eating was countless times better than before, and it was also pale in comparison with the food of these original residents.

Had it not been for the fact that the dwarves and centaurs had been put into their cells by the guards after they had finished eating, and the shackles on their feet had confirmed their status as prisoners of war, the new prisoners would have almost thought they were the guards of the cell.

The superior treatment of these guys made a group of new prisoners of war envious, anyway, everyone is a prisoner of war, and after being locked up for so long, these guys' racial concept has also faded a lot In the boring and monotonous prison and miner life, it would be good to have a talking partner, everyone is sympathetic, who cares if he is that, race? So they began to get close to these original residents, and the dwarves and centaurs were also very curious about these new guys, recently they have been working outside every day, and they haven't heard that the war has broken out again, why are there more than a hundred of them here all of a sudden, alien prisoners of war?

So the two sides quickly got together. And the new prisoners of war also got a general idea of what was going on in this place.

As long as you are obedient and work obediently, you will be treated? All the prisoners of war were a little unconvinced of what they heard, but the examples of the dwarves and centaurs were in front of them. Why don't they believe it.

And among the soldiers guarding the cells, there were many soldiers of the big-eared monster clan, which made these prisoners of war feel that their eyes were not out of the way.

When did the Erathian Empire begin to recruit soldiers of other races? And looking at the equipment of these soldiers, it seems that they are still the regular army of the empire!

The situation in this place is just so weird!

This thought came to the minds of all the POWs.

For a short period of time, these were originally due to heavy manual labor in the mine for a long time. The nutrition was seriously unable to keep up, and they had just made the long journey to Hammondal, and the prisoners of war, who were already too thin to be decent, were raised in the prisoner of war camp by Chen Jian with good food and drink.

If you want the horse to run fast. Don't think about asking the horses not to eat grass. Chen Jian understands this very well, and these guys may be their own soldiers in the future, how can they do without a good body, even if they can't become their own soldiers, how can they be considered free labor, they can do a lot of things, and a little investment now is nothing.

"Think long-term! Don't always worry about the little gains and losses in front of you! After explaining these truths to his subordinates, who were a little puzzled, Jian Chen said meaningfully.

As a result, these once enduring prisoners of war spent a period in Hammondale that was quite a good time compared to their previous prisoner of war careers.

But this does not mean that they can eat and sleep every day, sleep and eat, and wait for the meat to grow, and there are still some things for them to do.

They had to take turns cleaning the cells, taking turns to clean the prison clothes that everyone changed regularly, and occasionally team up to the various construction sites to help with some of the lighter tasks.

As they spent more and more time in this place, the prisoners of war slowly adapted to the new way of life, and while their physical condition gradually improved, they also began to have a deeper understanding of this place and the local lords.

First of all, the lord's reputation in the local area is extremely high, every time the lord appears in public, the lords will spontaneously and sincerely salute him, in this place, you must not be disrespectful to the lord, otherwise there may be big trouble; Secondly, this lord is very capable. He climbed to his current status in a very short period of time as a civilian, and his personal strength is extremely high, not only can he slay dragons alone, but he is also a great master of mental magic, which those dwarves and centaurs have seen with their own eyes, and the matter of the lord slaying dragons is passed on by the lords by word of mouth in the local area; Again, this, the lord's attitude towards the alien race is very strange, his two guard captains are not Terrans, and those big-eared monster soldiers are his former prisoners of war, but now they have become his loyal subordinates.

The last point was still heartwarming for the prisoners of war, which gave them hope of escaping their status as prisoners of war. Unfortunately, however, the lord didn't seem to have any intention of recruiting them.

After a while, the new prisoners of war had recovered considerably; They began to fight with the dwarves and centaurs. Frequent Han 2132 everywhere, why Mondale prosperity construction contributed their own strength.

The appearance of these alien prisoners of war made the people of Hammondale a little panicked at first.

Of the new prisoners of war, there were thirty-nine Big-Eared Monsters, twenty-three Medusa, and the most Cave Ones, reaching fifty-one.

The big-eared monster is better, the lord has a lot of big-eared monster clan soldiers under his command, and the new captain of the lord's guard is also a big-eared monster, plus the contact during this time, the lords are already used to these green-skinned aliens, and it's not strange.

But cave people and Medusa are different, although the big-eared monsters are also very scary, but they are also similar to humans, although the green skin is a little unaccustomed, but the size of the two races is similar, and the faces of the big-eared monsters are also clearly recognizable, and they are also two eyes, a nose, a mouth, and two ears, which is ugly.

And the cave people are not at all human, these strange creatures look like one at a glance, with big horses with long hands and feet, and a wrinkled and strange skin with yellow and green on them, and they look as terrifying as they are, whether they stand or walk, they stand on their backs, and they have a strange tail, and what is even more terrifying is that their round heads have no organs, only a large bloody mouth full of sharp teeth and two small round holes that appear to be ear holes.

Such creatures, on the surface, look like more beasts than intelligent creatures, and it is strange that ordinary lords are not afraid, even Chen Jian, the lord, was shocked when he saw these guys at first, and he felt that these cave people looked like aliens in science fiction movies.

The Medusas are even more terrifying, the upper body of these half-human and ten snake creatures is human-like, but the lower body is a huge snake body, when they move forward, it is not so much walking as a giant snake crawling, and when standing still, a snake tail keeps shaking from side to side, many people who are afraid of snake creatures are frightened when they see these creatures for the first time, and the iconic small snake-like hair on the heads of the Medusas makes the eyes of the leaders scared like earth.

What's more, legend has it that these terrifying-looking creatures will turn their unpleasant creatures to stone for fun.

Great Lord Chen Jian, who was a little underestimated about the panic of the lords, had to personally come forward to appease the people, and asked people to write a long announcement about the customs and living habits of the two races and post it on the bulletin board outside the old Kobe Tavern, so that the lords could be interested in these two. Having a better understanding of the race helps alleviate their fears.

In this bulletin, the cavemen and the Medusa are described in detail.

Cave people, also known as cavemen, are the most populous race in Negan, they like to live in the caves they have dug out, they have no eyes, but can use a strange way to observe the surrounding environment, they are experts in mining like the dwarves, but their combat effectiveness is very different from the dwarves, although the appearance is scary, but in fact, they are still very gentle by nature, not very strong, so their status in the Negan lord is quite low, Basically, they are either farmers or miners, and after training, cavemen can also become qualified warriors, and some very strong cavemen will have bone spurs on their backs, this kind of caveman warriors who fight with spears are called hell cavemen in Negan It should be noted that although there are two words in the name, but their combat effectiveness is not outstanding, and the reason why they use such a majestic name is just that the lords of Negan want to use it to intimidate the enemy.

In addition, the cave people are not as stupid as they look, their intelligence is actually quite high, some of them can learn magic and become magicians, and some of them become generals with their military talents, and are reused by some big lords, but this is relatively rare and they leave.

The Medusa clan belongs to Negan's local main battle race, these half-human, half-snake creatures like to use bows and arrows to attack the enemy, their archery skills are also unique on the continent of Erathia, and their melee ability is also good, good at attacking the enemy with their snake tail and the short knife in their hands, which makes people unguardable, and the powerful Medusa will also turn on her own racial ability, using the mysterious rays shot from the eyes to petrify the opponent for a period of time, unable to move, and then they can take the opportunity to kill the enemy. However, this powerful ability requires a certain amount of preparation time when it is used, and there is a certain probability of failure, and it does not succeed every time, it is not as powerful and terrifying as the legend at all, and it can permanently turn the enemy into a lifeless stone anytime and anywhere.

The Medusa clan belongs to the matrilineal clan, and the adult women in the clan are all qualified warriors, and the relatively weak male Medusa generally does not appear on the battlefield or in public, but stays at home and is responsible for passing on the family and taking care of the housework, which is why there are rumors on the mainland that Medusa is all women, and for some reason, although the Medusa clan is strong, there has never been any outstanding figure in history, although it is the main force in Negan's army, but it is also not of high status.

The lord with such a prestige personally came forward to explain his doubts, and the announcement was also conclusive, and the lords began to slowly stop being so Deng Mosquito Cave Man and Medusa prisoners of war also behaved very honestly, and this turmoil slowly subsided.

Corsai, who played a major role in this matter, was appointed by the lord as the first administrator of the Mondale, and was responsible for assisting the lord in managing all administrative matters in the realm except for the military, as well as mediating conflicts between different races.

The reason why this lord's old friend is very meritorious is because the extraordinarily long announcement was drafted by this Kosai, who once boasted in front of the lord that he was an expert on race and culture.

And the facts have proven. The guy didn't brag. He did have a considerable study of the cultures of various races on the continent of Erathia, and when he said goodbye to Jian Chen that day, he happened to meet Orisen and a large group of big-eared monsters, and in the surprised eyes of the lord, he made a strange gesture to these big-eared monsters, and Orison and the big-eared monsters saw his movements. I was also surprised to return the salute.

Afterwards, Jian Chen learned from Orison that this etiquette was a fairly old meeting etiquette among the Big-Eared Monster Clan. It is only circulated among the big-eared monsters, and few outsiders will know about it.

After listening to Orison's explanation, the lord, who was having a headache about how to deal with the conflicts between different races in the future, immediately understood that he had found a treasure.

Such a talent may be useless in other places, but for Chen Jian now, it is hard to find!

In this incident, Kosai's performance made the lord look at him even more, and the lord just said a general situation, and Kosai wrote down the relevant information of the two races without thinking, and then the secretary of Wendell sorted out and retouched it and announced it.

This is simply a good thing that the door wants to doze off, and the pillow falls from the sky! So the handsome guy Kosai, who had been with the lord and intended to peep at his wife's bath, was appointed as an administrator.

At this time, it happened that the first batch of alien immigrants arranged by Empress Catherine also arrived in Hammondal.

The number of immigrants was quite large, reaching more than 5,000 in total, and the population of Hammondale rose to 18,000 at once.

Moreover, these alien immigrants are all of one race, and it seems that the empress also considered that multi-racial intermingling would make Chen Jian feel too stressed, so she deliberately arranged it this way.

But even so, Jian Chen, when the lord saw these new lords, his face was blue and white for a while.

No matter which lord sees that there are more than 5,000 halflings in his territory at once, who are known for their pranks and quarrels on the continent of Erathia, they will have such expressions.

Halflings are also called sisters in this world. As the name suggests, they are generally only half as tall as ordinary humans, and are said to be close relatives of dwarves. But both dwarves and halflings scoffed at this argument and dismissed it.

One of the most famous traits of halflings is that they like to play pranks, they are very fond of hiding in the grass and woods and pretending to be ghosts, and they also like to run out of the windows of other people's houses at night and make strange noises to scare people, and take pleasure in it.

Another characteristic of them is that they are very fond of lively environments, where there are many people, they will drill wherever there are people, and then from time to time because of their pranks to cause all kinds of conflicts, and at the same time they often hold all kinds of meetings, some exaggerations say that even if the crops in the field are growing well, they can also be used as a reason to hold a party, in order to make everyone have a good trouble.

However, these optimistic little ones have no ill will towards the other races, but they are too troublesome, and because most of the races can't stand the frequent harassment of these little ones who never seem to get tired, they hate them. Therefore, the halfling has always been one of the unpopular ones on the mainland. Race.

Later, these little ones could not stand the discrimination of other races themselves, and they moved to the Ofer region with great ambition, because there were forests and grasslands they liked, and they were located in a remote and inaccessible area, so they could continue their lively life there without worrying about conflicts with other races.

But then the Devil of Kerrigan suddenly appeared in the Overer area, and these halflings who had been unable to escape from the world had to return to the world's vision again. Driven by Devil Kregan, these weak halflings were powerless, and their limited power of the slings was almost the same as a child's toy in front of the powerful Devil Krigan. After most of the casualties, the halflings had no choice but to retreat from the Overer region, allowing Devil Kerrigan to scorch their former paradise.

The halflings who had escaped from Ofer had nowhere to go, and most of them had entered the area adjacent to Ofer, and the Erathian Empire had also gathered a lot of halflings during that time, in order to prevent these little ones from disturbing the people. The empire had always concentrated them in a remote valley near Marston City, but this time they were all thrown into Jian Chen's territory.

Imagining the scene of his territory being chaotic because of these little guys making trouble, Chen Jianjue was about to cry.
