Chapter 596: Strange Orcs on the Prairie

Great Plains of Gold. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The sky is blue and wild, and the wind blows the grass low, but there are no cattle or sheep.

This is a fertile prairie, but unfortunately the number of orcs is too small, the grassland is too large, and most of the orcs don't know how to develop and use this treasure land, so the orcs are basically living in misery.

Link came to negotiate the alliance with the Orc King, although the two sides had a friendship in the past, but as a leader, friendship can only be used to catch up, and such a major event as the alliance of the two races does not talk about friendship, this matter only talks about interests.

If the two sides want to successfully form an alliance, Link naturally needs to know and clearly grasp the fundamental interests of the other party, so after he arrived in the Golden Great Plains, he did not go straight to the current orc king Tinglong Hongdu, but disguised himself as an ordinary merchant and walked through various orc towns all the way to observe their living conditions.

The more you know about the orcs, the more bargaining chips you will have to negotiate later.

After walking alone for a day, Link met a Terran caravan on the road, everyone was a Terran, Link looked like a lonely figure, and as soon as he said a few good words, he mixed with this caravan.

Along the way, Link watched as he walked, chatting with these merchants who traveled from south to north, but also increased his knowledge of the inhabitants of the middle and lower world of Feroman.

On this day, seeing that it was getting late, a stream happened to appear in front of him, and the caravan leader beckoned everyone to camp and rest by the stream.

There were more than 300 people in this caravan, gathered more than a dozen small teams, large and small, the largest of which was a red clay trading house, which specialized in selling all kinds of spices to orcs, such as garlic, dragon grass, meat herbs, etc., loaded with more than 20 carriages.

It numbered half of the whole team, and the rest were small caravans, with a group of five or six, a dozen people, a dozen people, and many traveling merchants like Link.

When everyone gathers together, there is a lot of strength and security, so although the small caravan basically does not hire mercenaries, the red clay trading house does not refuse everyone to go along.

The grass on the grassland can generally grow as high as an adult's chest, and the grass and trees near the river can exceed the heads of ordinary people, and this place would not be passable if there were no fixed trade routes.

The caravan walked along the trade road to the stream, the merchants stopped their wagons, some unloaded their saddle ropes and pulled their horses to the stream to drink water and feed the grass, others began to light a campfire to prepare dinner, and the mercenaries hired by the Red Clay Merchant House walked around on guard, and the whole caravan became very busy.

Link also found a place to sit down, it was inconvenient for him to expose his space equipment, so he carried a package on his back, at this time he unwrapped the package, took out a dry scone, and munched on it silently, thinking about the future itinerary in his heart.

This is still the edge of the Golden Great Plain, and there are still more than a thousand kilometers away from the orc king Tinggelunghongdu, and at the speed of this caravan, it is estimated that it will take more than a month to reach the land, and it will pass through about a dozen orc towns on the way.

A month is a bit long, but if you want to really understand the orc tribe and come up with an alliance condition that the orc king can't refuse, this time must be spent.

Moreover, Link's time is not entirely spent on this, for example, now, while he is eating scones, there is a clear light and shadow in his vision, which is the magic book he carries, and he directly displays all the contents from the game system.

In this way, to others, he is in a trance, but in fact, most of his time is actually spent studying magic, and only a small part of his time is spent observing orc society.

Just as he was looking intently, he suddenly heard footsteps in his ears, and a man came up, with light steps, it was a young girl, and Link came up with her name at once: Sally.

As soon as this thought flashed, a crisp voice sounded in his ears: "Brother Link, you're thirsty, come and drink saliva." ”

Link didn't hide his name, in fact, since he became Lord of Field, few people called him by his name, people in the kingdom of Norton called him Master, people in the realm called him Lord, people in other places called him Lord Field, or Lord Morenny. The people who really call his name are basically close people.

In addition, the name Link is also very common in Feroman, and many people shout, so he naturally has no need to hide it.

When he heard the shout, he turned his eyes and saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl walking towards him with a bowl of hot water, the water was a little hot, it was freshly boiled stream, so she walked very carefully.

This girl was the daughter of the leader of a small caravan, with an ordinary appearance, and a lot of freckles on her cheeks, because she had traveled all the year round, and her complexion was a little darker, but because of this, she looked energetic, her cheeks were red, her eyes were very bright, her body was vigorous, her personality was sassy, she was wearing a simple and neat set of leather armor, and she seemed to have infinite energy all day long, jumping up and down in the caravan.

Wherever she goes, laughter rings out.

Link stood up and took the water bowl from the girl's hand, smiled and said, "Thank you." ”

Sally's eyes became brighter, and she smiled like a crescent moon, and she sat down beside Link: "Brother Link, you are always in a daze alone, do you have something on your mind?" ”

Link was about to answer, when he suddenly felt a not very friendly gaze fall on him, and turned his head to look over, but it was Sally's father, a well-known buyer of magic materials, named Aurang, he didn't seem to like his daughter and Link getting too close, but his father's binding power on his daughter was obviously very limited.

Link squatted down the bowl and gestured to Aurang to show his gratitude, and then smiled and said to the girl beside him, "Sally, your father must have told you that a lone traveling merchant with a sword like me is a dangerous person, don't get too close to me, right?" ”

Link carried the Song of the Bright Moon around his waist, of course, this sword has never been unsheathed, and judging from its appearance, it is an ordinary steel sword.

Sally disagreed: "Hmm~ That's what he said, but he's just an old stubborn, I don't care." Brother Link, you hold a sword and dare to walk alone on the plains, that swordsmanship must be very good, right? ”

"Yes, a little." Link laughed.

"Can you teach me then?" Sally finally shows her purpose, she wants to learn martial arts.

Link laughed, the girl's careful thinking, he understood it the first time they met, she saw that every warrior with a sword would have her eyes shining, and her eyes would often fall on the mercenaries hired by the Red Clay Chamber of Commerce, but those mercenaries had killed people, and her blood was thick, she was like a timid deer, she only dared to peek, but she didn't dare to approach, and now when she saw Link, she saw that he was completely harmless, and she hit his idea.

"Of course I'm fine, but your father may disagree, and you'll have to ask for his consent first."

It's just a few swordsmanship, and it's hard work to bring him clean water every day every day these days, and after speaking, he drank the warm water in the dry bowl in one gulp, handed the bowl to Sally, and said with a smile: "Go and ask your father." Remember, it's useless for you to speak, your father has to tell me personally. ”

Sally was dumbfounded: "Huh? It's so hard, my father won't agree to it, can you change it? ”

Link held up a finger and shook it, "No, it's not negotiable. Compared to practicing swordsmanship, this is only a small difficulty. ”

"Okay, I'll figure it out." Sally went excitedly and sadly.

Link didn't bother him, so he continued to read the magic book, and after reading for a few minutes, a terrible scream suddenly came from the area where the stream was located in front of him.

Immediately after, Link saw a mercenary running back from the stream frantically, his face was covered with blood, and an eyeball fell out of his socket, just hanging on his face and dangling, he ran wildly, while holding his face and screaming, after running a dozen steps, he stumbled under his feet, and rolled to the ground, Xu is heart was full of relief, he couldn't get up, and his screams were much weaker, so he lay on the ground and snorted and gasped.

His fellow mercenaries had gathered around to check on the situation, and a few more of them were running towards the stream with their swords in hand, and after a while there were shouts of battle from the stream.

While everyone in the caravan was anxiously waiting, those mercenaries returned, they had many more scars on their bodies, and at the forefront was the mercenary leader, Link remembered that his name was Miro, a warrior at the peak of level 4, and a very good civilian warrior.

At this time, he was carrying a strange black head in his hand.

Link looked closely, and saw that the head was still roughly humanoid...... No, it should be the appearance of an orc, the strange thing is that the skin on this head is dark green, and the blood dripping on it is also dark green, after dripping on the ground, the weeds on the ground look unchanged, but Link can feel that the vitality of this weed is slowly disappearing.

The blood was poisonous, and it was an unnoticeable chronic toxin, and there was a faint smell of indescribable air in it.

Link felt a little familiar with the aura, a bit like ...... Natural toxin, but on closer feeling, it is plausible, in short, such a power, he has never seen before.

Link also noticed that the orc's eyes were pure black, with no whites, and that the skin of his face was covered with many gray-colored scars on the east and west, which looked like scars from the fire.

"Is there such an orc?" Link was a little weird, he hadn't seen anything like this in his previous game.

Suddenly there was news in the horizon.

Trigger Mission: Strange Orcs

Quest content: A strange orc appears in the Great Plains of Gold, which seems to be aggressive, find out the reason for the appearance of these orcs.

The reward was a little small, but it was better than nothing, and Link chose to accept it.

While the caravan was crowding around to see the strange orc's head, he quietly walked towards the stream alone, and he had to observe the orc closely. (To be continued.) )
