Chapter 269: Notes

The linen kobold woke up from his fright, and looked at the humans not far away with trembling all his body, and he understood that this man was not something he could handle by pretending to be pitiful, and he really had the ability to kill all the kobolds in the tribe, and then go in search of the trophies he loved.

But there is really nothing valuable in the tribe to take out, and calm the anger of the dragon envoy in front of him who can speak dragon language and use dragon power.

The tribe is weakened to such an extent that it is not until they do not bow their heads.

It took a deep breath, took a few steps forward, and said to Adès: "Your Excellency, our tribe really doesn't have any treasures worth plundering, and now there are less than sixty people left in the entire tribe, and there are only a dozen young and strong dragonborns, and we can't protect any treasures, if there is, we would have exchanged them for food and clothing." ”

Ades couldn't distinguish kobolds' facial expressions, but judging by its body language and the speed at which it spoke pretending to be calm, it was a bit depressing.

Could it be that I came here all the way, but it was empty?

When the linen kobold saw that Ades didn't speak, he thought that he was not satisfied with himself, and thought that he was lying to him, so he quickly continued to Ades: "If Your Excellency doesn't believe it, you can search our tribe at will, although this is very humiliating, but the pit tribe really doesn't have any treasures worth peeking at. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, several kobold soldiers behind him were a little commotion, and some hot-blooded kobolds said loudly to the linen kobolds: "Elder, fight with them! We have nothing left, and now even the last dignity is about to be lost?"

Ades whispered to everyone the meaning of the linen kobold's words, asking if they really wanted to destroy the kobold tribe.

Winnie looked at the shouting kobolds. He said to Adès: "Don't be soft-hearted at this time, if they really have tree seeds." You've lost not only the tree, but also Mia's life. ”

Adès looked back at Mia. He knew that ten kobold tribes couldn't get one Mia, and he knew that the little maid had saved his life twice, and for her, let alone going against his own camp, he could do anything that went against his conscience.

He tightened the spear in his hand, and was about to kill the kobold who was shouting, but Evis's arrow was faster, and a black shadow passed by, and the kobold, who was still talking about fighting hard, was shot in the left chest by the arrow. His mouth was open, and he could no longer speak.

Adès looked at Eves in surprise, and the tall beauty smiled and said, "I'll do this kind of thing, if you do it, it's easy to have an accident." ”

Evis's meaning Adès understands, this kind of torture can easily attract the disgust of the gods, whether it is the goddess of the forest or the god of kobolds, it will be disgusted by it, especially since Adès has divine grace, if he is stripped of his grace. That's the biggest loss.

Evis did it, even if she was disgusted by the gods, with the protection of Adès, she would not lose anything. But Adès did it himself, and there was no buffer.

There was silence in the sinkhole, and the kobolds who had been agreeing to fight hard just now stopped talking. The linen kobold's fist was tightened and loosened, released and clenched.

After a while. It said to Adès, "At the height of our Pit Tribe, there was a Warlock. We still have some of the notes it left behind at that time, which is the most precious inheritance of our tribe, and perhaps this is the note that Your Excellency came here to find. ”

Adès groaned for a moment and said to the kobolds, "If you are satisfied, I will leave enough food and will not kill you all." ”

With Adès's assurance, the linen kobold staggered back to the cave where he lived, and when he came out a little later, he was holding a small wooden box with what it was supposed to call a note.

Watching the kobold take out the notes from the box and tremble and hold them in front of him, Adès felt a little unbearable, but even if he had compassion, he should not show it at this time, just go back and compensate them.

This is a standard spell book style notebook, there is no word written on the cover, Ades opened this somewhat blackened notebook, the paper inside is leather, made of unknown animal skin, a diary written by a warlock himself, but the date of the record jumps greatly, it is estimated that it was remembered to write such a chapter and a half.

"The season of flowers, the new moon, today the dragonborn of the tribe are very happy, the seeds sown have finally sprouted, and our lord has also sent down the grace of God, he will protect the growth of the sapling, and the pedestal of the deep pit tribe has been cast. ”

"They are here, even with the protection of the Divine Tree, we are no match for them, should I leave with the elite of the tribe?

"Defeated, but I don't regret it, I will fight with the tribe to the end. ”

"It's broken, the sacred tree is broken!"

"I have given my lord's priest the hope of a resurgence of the tribe, that he will take it with him and retreat to the Shadows, where our mortal enemies will continue to protect us. ”

The notes were recorded in dragon language, so it was easy for Ades to understand the contents, and at the same time, he memorized all the contents, and with the spiritual power beyond ordinary people, it was not difficult for him to memorize such a notebook.

Flipping through it again, there were no other secret notes in the notebook, so Adès handed the note to Yunni and said to her softly: "Check to see if there is a zài magic secret mark in it, this may be the only clue, don't be careless." ”

Yun Ni nodded knowingly, cast spells with spells, and faced the magic book is two consecutive spells, "Detection Magic", "Reading Magic", after a while, she shook her head and said to Ades: "It's just an ordinary notebook, without any magic language and secret notes in it, but the cover of this note should be a kind of magical beast skin, but the magic energy in it is lost too much, and it is basically useless."

Adès took the note, handed it back to the kobold, shook his head, and said, "There is no useful information in it, and the route of your priest's retreat is not marked, so it is impossible to say where the things taken from the tribe are." ”

The linen kobold was shocked. A little stammered and asked, "Pavilion...... Are you not satisfied?"

Ades shook his head and took out two large packets of rye flour from the space container. Then there were some jerky that had been stored when they came out, and they were placed not far from the kobold. He said to it: "Actually, I don't have a deep grudge against your tribe, and as you can imagine, I must have hurt some people in your tribe when I came in.

As compensation, I can give you a batch of food, and if your tribe has anything of value, or some items that you don't need, but are relatively rare, you can also take them out and trade them with me, and the price will definitely satisfy you. ”

Watching Ades out of nowhere, he took out two large packets of rye noodles. The smell of jerky could still be smelled in the nose, and some kobolds nearby couldn't help but exclaim.

Hearing Adès say this, the linen kobold also knew that the soldiers stationed on the other side of the altar might all be killed, but so what? they didn't even have the qualifications to fight hard, and it looked back at the female kobold hiding in the cave, and the children who were waiting to be fed, and sighed in his heart.

"Take whatever you like, take it, my cave still has some precious ores dug up over the ages. Those can also be given to you, I just hope that you can take care of our tribe a little, we don't dare to ask for too much. ”

Ades nodded and said, "If I am satisfied with those ores, I can provide you with some weapons." But we won't give it to you until we're gone, and I don't want to have an unpleasant misunderstanding here, do you understand?"

The kobold didn't say anything. Turning back to the soldier, he said a few words, and immediately a soldier entered its cave. Begin to carry the ore out.

Seeing this, Adès said to the kobold, "You can have the people of the tribe trade directly with me. Let them exchange what they have in their hands with me. ”

The kobold turned back to say a few words to everyone, and some of the kobolds behind him exclaimed again, and some of the bold ones even asked in a loud voice what Ades needed.

"A qiē rare ore, anything you think is valuable, you can take it out and exchange it with this dragon envoy. The kobold reluctantly explained loudly to everyone.

Although the tribe now implements a centralized distribution system, it used to be privately owned, and some kobolds may still have good things left over from their previous heyday, but such things may be few and far between.

"I'm interested in the cover of this notebook, it's a magic leather, and if you're willing to exchange it, I can bid ten pounds of jerky. Ades thought for a moment and said to the kobold.

The linen kobold listened and flipped through the notes in his hand, which was a cover made of a whole piece of hard leather, and it could be seen that there was no structure such as a sandwich in it, and the kobold was not reserved, he directly handed the notes to Ades, and said in his mouth: "Let your Excellency dispose of it." ”

Ades was not hypocritical, took out a small dagger, removed the thread that stitched the notes on the spot, removed the cover, and then returned the leather paper inside to the kobold, he raised the hard cover in his hand and said: "I only need this, as for the contents of the contents, I should leave it to you, I am not interested." ”

After saying that, he took out a large bag of sealed jerky from the silver-bellied tabby, divided the amount enough, and handed it to the kobold.

The soldiers who carried the ore also moved their things to the open space in front of Adès, Adès signaled to Winnie, and the two of them began to identify the ore under their feet, and Mia and Evis were on guard to prevent those kobolds from doing anything against Adès.

Iron ore, doghead gold, copper nuggets, and even some silver nuggets with an iron content of ninety percent, containing a small amount of Mithril, Ades picked and selected, and selected more than ten pieces, and Yunni also had ten pieces and eight pieces, which didn't add up much.

"It's really not worth much, five spearheads made of stainless steel, or a pair of refined leather armor, you choose one, these ores are worth so much. Adès said, shaking his head.

This price is very fair, and even some exceed the value of these ores in front of them, and the kobold people did not hesitate to choose the stainless steel spearhead, with these, it will be much easier for them to hunt animals.

The kobolds behind it saw that the elders had begun to exchange food with Adès, and the bold ones stepped forward one after another, taking out what they thought was the best, and trading with Adès and Yunni.

These were all strange things, animal teeth, unknown seeds, and dried grass, which the well-informed Adès could not understand anyway.

And Yunni, under Mia's protection, ran into the cave to see if anything was found.

In the end, they didn't find anything good, and under Mia's pleading eyes, Adès simply packed all the things he had sent and took out ten bags of flour, as well as jerky, salt, and even a small bag of rye seeds, as compensation for the invasion.

The linen kobold hated Adès, and if he had come out early in the morning, he would not have had to kill the patrol soldiers when he entered the sinkhole, and the soldiers would have begged him to come and trade with the tribe on their knees.

However, this also made most of the kobolds let go of their hatred and fear of Ades, and Mia secretly made amends to the family of the dead soldier, and sent some candy to those little kobolds, and immediately became the most popular person in the tribe, and a group of dog children circled around her.

When Ades was about to end the trade and evacuate the place, he asked the kobold, "Do you have a map to go to the Dark Regions, or a secret passage to get there?"

The linen kobold shook his head and said, "There is a small pit not far from the altar, where you can connect to the dark area, but we have gone down, and the tunnel is getting narrower and narrower, and in the end even those hateful gnomes can't get into it, I think it is just an outlet to connect the dark area."

If our lord still protects us, then it is possible to go to the dark region, but now our lord is no longer paying attention to us, and without the priest, we will no longer have the possibility of digging deep mines, so your Excellency will be disappointed. ”

Something suddenly came to his mind when he heard this, and then he pretended to be disappointed and said, "How long has it been since you showed up as a priest?"

"It's been a long time, it hasn't been around since my ancestors, otherwise our tribe wouldn't be what it is now. ”

The kobold god Kurtumaki's divine system has a unique divine art, which is an extension of his transcendent godhead ability, and the divine skill of "moving through the ground", which can be improved step by step, gives his priest the ability to walk through rocks.

This also provides the greatest convenience for kobolds when mining, as they can create a two-foot-long one-square-foot tunnel in the dirt, clay, sand, or rock, and can be raised up to fifteen feet in length and three-square-foot in section. (To be continued......) R1292
