Therefore, Wild Heart is regarded as a supreme treasure by the Orc Kingdom, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most precious thing in the entire kingdom. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

With such a precious treasure at home, it is inevitable that thieves will be worried.

A hundred years ago, three powerful thieves broke through the heavy guards, broke into the Earth Temple of the Orc King City, and stole the Heart of the Wild.

The guards guarding the temple pursued each other, and the two sides eventually fought to the Emerald Wasteland, the vast wasteland bordering the Orc Kingdom and the Metal Empire, where they both disappeared, and the whereabouts of Wild Heart are unknown.

Yang Shou specially checked the relevant ancient books, which vaguely mentioned that although the person who stole the holy relics was masked, his strength was comparable to that of the Sword Saint, and he was riding a dragon when he escaped!

Hmph, who else meets this condition except the dragon knights of the Human Empire?

Yang Shou even thought very irresponsibly that maybe several human countries were involved in this matter back then.

Regardless of the original process, in the past hundred years, the heart of the wild has never appeared on the Miracle Continent again. Countless people who coveted the holy relics came to explore the Emerald Wasteland, and they were lucky enough to get out of the way, and the unfortunate ones became a delicious meal for the beasts of the wasteland.

Yang Shou remembers the storyline of the game very clearly: the current transportation of more than 2,000 troops is actually just a disguise, and the real order given by the emperor to Viscount Thomas is actually to recapture the wild heart at all costs!

Yang Shou was sure that Caroline must have been kept in the dark now, and with her character, it was impossible to exchange the lives of two thousand soldiers for any holy relics.

If the plot of the game is followed, Thomas will eventually return to the imperial capital with a wild heart, and the orc kingdom will be declining day by day.

Then the army of the undead grew unstoppable, and within a year, the Empire of Steel was destroyed, and the Wild Heart fell into the hands of the Undead Realm. Soon, several surrounding countries were involved in the war, and the first Rise of the Dead began.

It was a gluttonous era for players, and it was also the end of the game for these NPC natives.

The sweet smell spread in the air, and Yang Shou and Barkley stood on the balcony, holding their respective wine glasses, talking from the Orc Kingdom to the Human Empire.

"Hiccup~ You humans, you have too many thoughts and too much utilitarianism,"

Barkley drank a little high, pouted and said: "Always have a self-respecting mind, I want all races to submit to your feet, so that your inflated desires can be satisfied, Hiccup~ Since you are so powerful, do you have the ability to raze the Lich Mountain Range~"

Yang Shou raised his eyebrows slightly, he didn't expect to hear such profound words from Barkley's mouth.

Indeed, several Terran countries in the game all uphold the inferior nature of human beings on the earth, and it seems that they are uncomfortable if they don't do something every day.

"What's wrong with the Lich Mountains?" Yang Shou looked at the street, looking for Bill's figure, and replied casually.

Barkley moved his sturdy body on the chaise longue, and did not notice Yang Shou's absent-mindedness: "Recently, those undead creatures have been very dishonest, and two foreign merchants have been attacked, and I haven't seen any action from you." ”

"I'm a pure pacifist, and people in my hometown call me a little master of nature."

Yang Shou turned his head, spread his hands, showed an innocent expression, and said without changing his face and heartbeat: "Actually, I want to meet this envoy, Mr. Buckley, can you introduce me on your behalf?" ”

Barkley laughed, wiped the wine that overflowed from the corner of his mouth, shook his head, and said, "Young man, how can I have that qualification?" Do you think I'm a priest of the temple or a warrior of great merit? ”

"It's just an introduction, you just need to help me bring something to the elephant elder, as for whether they see me or not, it depends on luck."

Yang Shou didn't give up, leaned forward, and said patiently: "And I promise, as long as this matter is done, the temple will definitely reward you heavily." ”

Barkley was not stupid, stared at Yang Shou and smiled: "Boy, talk to me here for a long time, won't it be just for this?" ”

Yang Shou waved his hand and smiled: "How come, it's just that I saw the elder of the elephant clan just now, and I just made a temporary decision, in the end, we are still destined~ How about it, the opportunity is rare, you don't want to open a tavern in this desert town all the time, right?" ”

This sentence spoke to Barkley's heart.

Five years ago, Barkley killed people in anger in his hometown because of a personal vendetta, and later fled to the northern outpost, where he settled.

In the game, there is also a special quest line to tell this story, and the mission goal is to help Buckley return to his hometown, so Yang Shou is clear about Buckley's heart.

Although he has been away from the orc kingdom for many years, Buckley still loves the vast and beautiful homeland. In the mission line that year, he protected his people to return to their hometown, encountered countless hardships and dangers along the way, and never gave up.

In the end, when the old and young of the bear people reached the finish line safely, Barkley died on the doorstep due to the recurrence of old injuries and the severity of his injuries.

Bears are born warriors, warriors unrivaled on the battlefield. And Barkley, who was expelled from his hometown in the first half of his life and ran a tavern in a human city, thought that he would live the rest of his life like this, but in the second half of his life, he showed the blood and dignity that a bear warrior should have.

This is a brave man who deserves respect.

Therefore, Yang Shou knew that Barkley was trustworthy, and this bear man, who had slowly turned from a tavern owner to a famous warrior, was one of the NPCs that Yang Shou admired the most.

"Okay, let me see your stuff first." Barkley was silent for a while, looked at Yang Shou with a sincere face, and finally spoke.

Yang Shou showed a faint smile, and said in his heart that it was finally done!

Borrowing a pen and paper from Buckley, Yang Shou quickly drew on the paper, finished it a moment later, and handed it to the other party.

Barkley took it curiously, frowning at the sight of what was drawn on the paper.

It was a root-like thing, with roots stretching out in all directions at the bottom, and stubby stumps on top, but no branches or leaves. There are a few simple patterns on the stump, like a magic circle, and like shaman runes.

Next to the pattern, the words "Dragon Knight" are written in orc language.

The lines of the picture are expressive and clearly show the state of the original. Because of this, Barkley is a little confused, what is this painting?

"It's not time to say more,"

Yang Shou saw the confusion in the other party's eyes, and said mysteriously: "That Elephant Clan elder will understand when he sees it." ”

Barkley was noncommittal, folding the paper and tucking it into his big bells and whistles.

At this time, the street began to be a little chaotic, and some people came in a panic from a distance, pointing and talking to their companions; In the distance, the figure of the City Watch flashed at the end of the street, and the footsteps were hurried.

Yang Shou noticed these details and began to feel a little uneasy, and couldn't help but think of Bill, who had not been on the road for a long time.

Uncle Bill has always had a steady personality, how could he be so late?

He had a vague premonition of bad luck.

"Barkley, do you know Bill? Every time he came to the northern sentry, he would come here to drink, he was a fat man, bald, and a soldier, and his favorite was the Jiyuan at the end of the street. Yang Shou suddenly asked thoughtlessly.

"Huh?"

Barkley was a little confused, and when he saw Yang Shou looking at the street with some solemnity, he thought for a while and said, "I have a little impression, it seems that I often bring new recruits to me, and I am a very interesting veteran." ”

On the other side of the street, Danny rushed towards the tavern, Yang Shou saw it in his eyes, squinted slightly and stood up from his chair: "He has an enemy here?" ”

"Enemies? There shouldn't be~ The people here are all ordinary people, even those adventurers who shout about slaying dragons all day long, they don't dare to make enemies with the people in the army~" Buckley frowned and replied, because he felt that Yang Shou's temperament had changed significantly, he was gentle and elegant a moment ago, and now he had a fierce aura.

"Thank you, Mr. Buckley, for your hospitality, and we'll see you later."

Yang Shou put down his wine glass, thanked Barkley briefly, and then supported the railing with one hand and jumped cleanly from the balcony.

Barkley poked his head out of the balcony and saw Yang Shou and a young soldier talking briefly, and then hurried into the distance.

"Strange young man, burp~" Barkley took a large sip of rum, the cold liquid moistening his mouth and then down his throat and into his stomach, causing him to burp loudly and comfortably.

Yang Shou's words and deeds left a deep impression on Barkley, where he looked like a teenage recruit, and more like an old fritter with decades of adventure experience.

In the past few years, Barkley has seen too many people in the Qingteng Tavern, and he vaguely feels that this young man is not simple.

Yang Shou was anxious at the moment.

Danny meets several of his comrades from the boot camp on the street and learns something about them.

A few people stumble upon Bill and are confronting Scarface in the alley. It was a well-known fact that the boot camp and the pro-guard were not in harmony, so several people thought that Captain Bill was on the same page again.

This is the northern outpost, and the soldiers fight and brawl on the street, and if it is serious, they will be whipped, so they will fight with each other at most, and everyone is used to it.

But then things took a turn for the worse, as the pro-soldiers brutally dispersed the crowd, and several recruits were pushed to another street, waiting for a while without seeing Bill come out.

Only then did everyone feel that something was wrong, and the organic spirit people went to ask Lord Caroline for help, and Danny came to find Yang Shou as soon as possible.

Yang Shou ran wildly on the street, praying in his heart, but don't have an accident, don't have an accident!

Danny next to him secretly glanced at Yang Shou's expression, feeling that things might be more serious than he thought.

Two minutes later.

The alleys were back to normal, with people coming and going, people with buckets and brooms, sweeping the stone pavement, where there were faint red marks.

Yang Shou walked straight over and grabbed the other party's wrist: "There were people injured here just now, where did they go?" ”

"Hey, you ...... man"

The other party was pinched by Yang Shou, and just as he wanted to scold, he saw the young soldier in front of him. Yang Shou's expression was calm, and he couldn't see any special emotions, only his eyes were extraordinarily condensed and solemn, which made people feel for the first time that he was not joking.

"That...... They drove people far away, and I only saw a slight glimpse, as if they were heading north......"

"Thank you."

Yang Shou let go of the other party, his chest rose and fell slightly, forcing himself to calm down.

Don't think about the cause, don't reason about the process, just the result! Think for the worst!

If they don't dare to kill the soldiers of the Empire on the street, they will definitely make Bill lose the ability to resist first, and then find a safe place to solve it.

They certainly have local accomplices...... Where is the most secluded place nearby?

Yang Shou's brain spun rapidly, and the topographic map of the northern outpost quickly spread out in his brain: the City Lord's Mansion was not in the north, where were they going? Killing, hiding corpses?
