Chapter 54: My Excellency, I Want to Work for You
Sisko was in his tent, walking around a little depressed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
They had been in the Secret Forest for more than half a month, but the progress of the search and confirmation of the ore veins was very regrettable, and it was not much faster than the speed of the turtle crawling.
In another half month or so, winter will begin, and the entire Forest of Secret Words will be covered with a thick layer of snow, and the beasts that lack food will become more ferocious.
Even, some of the magical beasts in the depths of the Secret Forest will come to this neighborhood because of a lack of food.
If you run into a Warcraft, it won't be a good thing for anyone.
"It's because of that stupid guy Hope that we're in this situation!" Sisko couldn't help but scold, but he couldn't help but be helpless.
He wasn't the first to come to the Forest of Whispers to explore and search for ore veins.
The first to come to the Forest of Whispers was Viscount Hope, the guy inside the largest tent in the entire camp.
After Hope arrived, under the guidance of the guide, he found the village of the Otto tribe, but instead of trying to communicate, he used the stupid method of kidnapping the children of the other tribe and coercing them.
This made Sisko not even know what to say, thinking that Hope, the viscount, had simply been pampered in Lyme City for too long, and his brain was in water.
Hope kidnapped the Otto children, expecting that the other party would be coerced by him, but unexpectedly, it inspired a strong resistance from the other party.
In the end, when Hope couldn't resist it, he notified the city of Lyme, and the Earl of Lyme sent Sisko to reinforce him.
By the time Sisko arrived, Hope had already stiffened relations with the Ottoes, and Sisko had only launched a few surprise attacks with his soldiers, but never took them down.
Sisko was confident that if he was given a month, he would naturally be able to capture the opponent's village by slowly grinding the method, but now what he lacked was time.
"Do you really want to withdraw your troops first, wait until the winter is over, and then come back to capture this place?" Sisko was also a little unsure.
He believed that the news of this ore vein could not be concealed for too long around Lyme City, and if it could not be taken as soon as possible, those city lords around Lyme City would definitely get involved, making the situation even more complicated.
Thinking of this, Sisko became even more agitated, walking back and forth in the tent, thinking of a feasible solution.
At this time, a soldier outside the tent reported, and after Sisko let the other party in, he asked, "What's wrong?"
The soldier gave a military salute and said, "Captain Sisko, one of the two prisoners you brought back said that he was able to communicate with the aliens in the cage and wanted to see you. ”
Hearing this, Sisko's spirit was shocked, but he immediately fell silent.
The soldier waited for a moment, and Sisko finally spoke, "Let him come to me." ”
After a while, the soldier led Casio to Sisko's tent.
Sisko glanced at Casio, who was cowering and restrained, and his face was still cold: "What's your name?"
Casio bent down slightly, deliberately humbling: "Back to the adult, little Brown Hugh." ”
"What did you do before, how did you know that foreign language?"
"My lord, I am not actually a native of Greenwater, but settled in Greenwater Town with my father in my early years. My father, who used to be an academic researcher, also studied some foreign languages with him. Casio doesn't leak anything when he speaks, and he's not afraid that Sisko will go to Greenwater to inquire.
If Sisko can still find anything from Greenwater now, it means that Casio's control of Greenwater is really embarrassing.
Sisko nodded, and asked as if chatting, "Since you are not a native of Greenwater, you must have followed your father to many places." ”
"Yes, sir. When I was a child, I wandered with my father for a while, and I saw the Danube, Starmoon Lake, and Virginia City. ”
The places Casio mentioned are some well-known locations in the Geraka Empire, and Sisko naturally knows about them.
Sisko nodded, and suddenly asked, "There is a kind of crystal wheat pie in Black Rock Town next to the Danube, which is quite good, have you ever tasted it?"
Casio had a puzzled look on his face, and he was not sure: "Lord Hui, Black Rock Town is a military town, and I don't have the permission to enter it." I've eaten the Crystal Wheat Pie before, but in Virginia City. It's a pie that's famous!"
Sisko looked at Casio silently and didn't speak, which made Casio gradually uneasy, and some cold sweat slowly oozed from his forehead.
"My lord, am I wrong again?" asked Casio cautiously.
Sisko withdrew his gaze and shook his head.
This made Casio breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and it seemed that he had passed the first level in confusion.
This Sisko is not as foolish as it seems on the outside, and he just asked the wrong question based on some of the place names Casio himself answered, just to see if Casio had really been to these places.
Fortunately, Casio has been to most of the civilizations of Gurea in the game, otherwise it is really possible to be seen by Sisko.
"Brown, is it? What are you looking for me?" asked Sisko, unmoved.
Casio gave a flattering smile: "My lord, that's right. I just communicated with those aliens in the wooden cage, and I got a general understanding of the situation. ”
Hearing this, Sisko's eyes revealed a cold killing intent, which made Casio tremble slightly and swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"So?"
"So, so the little one wants to work for the adults, and I hope the adults can take me in. Casio said, looking expectant.
With a slight groan, Sisko sneered: "What can you do for me?"
After thinking about it for a while, Casio said: "Actually, the little one has an idea, and now because I can communicate with those aliens, and because I was also locked in a wooden cage by you, they have some trust in me. ”
Speaking of this, Casio looked at Sisko's expression for a moment, and then continued: "I think based on this foundation of trust, can I use it to make them trust me more, and then take me back to their village." When I found an opportunity inside, I joined forces with the adults and took this place in one fell swoop. ”
After telling his plan, Casio stood there with some trepidation, waiting for Sisko's answer.
Sisko's expression moved slightly, but he didn't show any noticeable change, and his heart began to think carefully about Casio's suggestion.
Casio waited aside, but he sneered in his heart.
Sisko knew that he had to take this vein as soon as possible before winter, and how could Casio not understand, so Casio deliberately set up this trap to hit Sisko's sore spot, so that he had to be led by Casio's nose.
Sisko was silent for a long time, then looked at Casio and said coldly, "What do you want?"
Hearing this, Casio immediately relieved his heart, knowing that Sisko had fallen into his trap: "My lord, as I said just now, I hope you can take me in and let me work on your side. ”
"That's all?" Sisko was a little unconvinced.
"Of course, if there was a squad leader or something, so much the better. Casio said, a look of greed on his face.
Sisko was silent for a moment, and looked at Casio steadily: "You have a very flexible brain, where can't you get a good errand, you have to come to me?"
Casio suddenly smiled bitterly: "My lord, just because you have a good brain doesn't mean that you will be able to mix well." ”
Hearing this, Sisko seemed to be deeply touched, and sighed secretly: "I can't be the master of this matter alone, you go with me to see Lord Jue." ”
"Yes, sir. Casio nodded hurriedly, looking very submissive.
Sisko strode away from the tent, and Casio followed, a sneer flashing across his lips.
