Chapter 9: The Duel

After returning to the gnolls' camp, Hogg threw White on his shoulder to the ground, then took out the underwater breathing potion he snatched from White's hand, and asked White, who was rubbing his waist on the ground, "Did you make this potion?" ”

White, who was thrown directly from Hogg's shoulder to the ground, felt that the tail vertebrae were about to be crushed and fractured, so he inhaled cold air in pain and replied: "I did it, can I do anything for you?" ”

Hogg didn't say a word, punched and kicked White, and then said to White, who was lying on the ground and wailing loudly, "Now I'll give you a chance to prove yourself, you see there's healing potion materials on the table over there, give you a quarter of an hour, you make a bottle of potion, if you fail or don't achieve the effect I requested, you're dead!" ”

Hearing this request, White didn't care about why a gnoll would ask him to mix the potion, and hurriedly ran to the small table next to him to start mixing the potion, and in less than five minutes, a bottle of primary healing potion was concocted, Hogg just wanted to take this bottle of primary healing potion with satisfaction, but saw White mix the freshly mixed potion with a heather next to him, and remix it into a new potion, and then turned around and handed the potion to Hogg and said, "This is a secondary treatment potion, The materials here can only do this level of healing potion. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Hogg nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the potion in his hand, the vial was a bright red in the sunlight, which was clearly different from the light red of the primary healing potion, and then Hogg handed the flask to White again.

"Drank it." Seeing that after drinking the potion, the bruises on White's body that had been beaten by Hogg faded significantly and quickly, and Hogg said again, "Let's talk!" ”

"What are you talking about?" White asked with a wince.

Hogg smiled (the gnoll's smile was rather hideous, and White was already shaking), "Of course, talk about your treatment with me...... ”

So then Hogg and White began to discuss the question of "how much is White's freedom worth", and finally came to the conclusion that a professional slave with advanced alchemy must have 20,000 gold, and then Hogg said very boldly that if White has done a good job in the past few years (when White's reputation in the Riverpaw Clan reaches worship), he can give White a 20% discount, which is 16,000 gold, and when the time comes, White can go home to visit his relatives, of course, after visiting his relatives, White has to come back to be a cow and a horse, White ostensibly obediently agreed to these demands (a fool would come back).

But the premise of all this is that White has to work for at least the first four years. As for why four years? Hogg wouldn't say that four years later, the orcs would break through Stormwind, and even if White went home, he would only see a nest of stinky orcs (where did the gnolls get the confidence to despise the hygiene of the orcs?). Right?

So White had to live in the Riverpaw Clan, although he missed his wife and a pair of children at home very much, but only by living could he have the opportunity to see them, and now Hogg gave him a hope to return home, so White worked quite hard.

Seeing that White was so obedient, Hogg offered to give him a little reward, such as going to Mooncreek Town to bring his relatives to visit him. However, when White heard this, his face turned pale, and he resolutely declined Hogg's "kindness", and vowed to work hard, and hoped that Hogg would never go to Mooncreek Town, completely ignoring Hogg's repeated statements that he would protect the safety of his relatives.

Seeing that White was so resolute, Hogg had to agree not to disturb White's relatives in Mooncreek Town, but now, Hogg is facing a bigger challenge, and he has no time to take care of other things for the time being, because Hogg's strength is growing rapidly now, and his influence in the Riverpaw clan is also increasing day by day, all of which makes the current chief of the Riverpaw clan feel a lot of threat, and now I heard that Hogg actually dares to snatch his own slave (the chief of the Riverpaw clan has the final say, so the clan's slave = the chief's slave), The chief felt that this was a sign that Hogg wanted to snatch his chieftaincy's throne, so he decided to teach Hogg to be a gnoll, so although Hogg did not want to become the chief of the Riverpaw Clan, the chieftain who felt offended did not want to let Hogg go.

Soon the news that Hogg was going to challenge the current chief spread throughout the Riverpaw clan, so after dinner, the gnolls spontaneously circled the campfire in the camp, and the open space in the middle was the venue for the duel, and soon the heavily armed gnoll chieftain with a small axe in his right hand and a large shield in his left hand appeared on the side of the field, and compared to the chief's strict formation, Hogg was a lot more casual, still empty-handed, not even a shield, only a set of worn chain mail worn on his body was considered armor, and he did not bring a helmet, I didn't wear a wrist guard either.

This is mainly because Hogg is more and more fond of the kind of fist-to-flesh, pure fighting style, for it now, there is no weapon more handy than his own pair of big claws (hand-to-hand combat level 600+...... And to be honest, the Gnoll's weapons themselves are unusually crude, so Hogg doesn't need weapons, and as for the armor, there is really no such a large model (it's hard to buy clothes for the big guys...... After all, the current Hogg is not the future Riverpaw Chieftain, so there is no way to obtain such sophisticated equipment, so Hogg has nothing to prepare in terms of equipment.

But to say that Hogg is not the slightest preparation, it is not necessarily, although Hogg at this time does not look like any equipment from the outside, but if someone can see Hogg's "buff status bar", they can see that Hogg has a lot of enhancement buffs, anyway, Hogg has drunk all the enhancement potions that can be found and do not conflict, so the current Hogg is also fully armed in a sense.

For so many strengthening potions, Hogg also squeezed White's labor, but Hogg said to White very cunningly: "I want these potions because the Riverpaw Chief wants to take you to sell to the goblins, and I don't agree, so I have to duel with the chieftain, and it's okay if I lose, but you're going to be sold to the goblins, so you know what to do in order for you to go home?" ”

So although White was squeezed hard by Hogg, he was willing to do it, and he felt that it was not bad to follow Hogg, and it was obvious that White's Stockholm Syndrome had already had preliminary symptoms.
