Chapter 605: Set up camp
When the sun began to gradually slide towards the mountainside of the Monster Mountain, Feng Longde and the others finally returned to the Teutonic camp smoothly and began to settle Todd and other mercenaries. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"This is the place where you are stationed, and now it will start to get dark in a little while, so your camp will only start tomorrow after the entire hiring process has been completed, and we Teutons will be able to provide you with some help. Pointing to a clearing not far away, Feng Longde said to Todd, and then continued to point to the mercenaries behind him who were gasping for breath and drinking water and eating to replenish their strength, "You can simply pitch your tent tonight, this place is under the complete control of the Teutonic camp, don't worry about any people or creatures trying to attack you." But don't even have a sentry in charge, there's a nighttime trolls roaming around the area, so just remember to let the night watchmen work together in squads, light campfires, and don't go alone. β
"Understood, sir. Todd nodded respectfully, he was not blind, he could see a lot of strange figures faintly appearing in the dense forests on both sides of the forest path before coming here, even a fool could guess that some strange creatures were trying to attack them, but this time they were lucky enough to have no terrifying monsters jumping out to attack them, so he became more and more concerned about this aspect of things," What time will you start working tomorrow morning to complete the rest of the hiring process?"
"Well, at ten o'clock in the morning, you'll line up here at that time, and I'll bring someone over and finish the rest with you. Feng Longde thought for a moment and replied, in order to avoid the possibility of delaying things because they didn't know the time system here or couldn't measure the time, he took out a working alarm clock from the bag on the side of the undead war horse standing still next to him, and threw it to Todd: "I have a small clock here, you should be able to appear at the specific time, right?"
"Uh...... I can tell, my lord. Looking carefully at the numbers marked on the alarm clock and the hands erected, Todd nodded, although he couldn't understand the Arabic numerals on it, but there were also clocks in the world he was in, and there was no difference in the way the numbers were marked on it, so he could immediately judge what time it was through this alarm clock, and the specific moment with an interval of five minutes, "My lord, this thing should be ...... Isn't it precious?
"How expensive can this thing be?" After hearing Taude's words, Feng Longde subconsciously replied, but he quickly reacted that in the kind of world that Todd originally lived in, which was close to the European Middle Ages, clocks and watches were probably still rare items that only nobles and wealthy merchants could buy, and gadgets like alarm clocks, which were so small that they could be easily held by one hand, must be regarded as something elaborate in the eyes of almost medieval Europeans like Todd, so he hurriedly added: " Although this kind of thing is not very common in our place, but it is quite cheap in terms of price alone, the price of this kind of thing is at most the cost of a few pieces of dry bread, but the way to buy it is a little tossed a little bit ......"
"My lord, isn't it very expensive to transport this kind of thing here?" asked Todd curiously, carefully holding the alarm clock, he had heard others say that many of the luxuries that only nobles, wealthy merchants, or clergy could afford to enjoy were transported from the far east or the icy far north, and he thought that this kind of small clock should be the same situation.
β...... Well, if you have to say, the shipping cost is expensive enough, but we can completely ignore the various transportation costs here, so it is just an ordinary item with a little trouble to buy here, and it is not a rare or expensive luxury. Feng Longde was silent for a while and shrugged his shoulders and replied, if you really want to think about it, all the modern living materials used by him, Weisk and the others in their daily lives are all smoothly transported by using the two-way teleportation array connected to the basement of the Feng family villa in Tokushima City, and the elemental energy required to activate the two-way teleportation array each time is definitely a large number if converted according to modern electricity or other common energy sources, but the elemental energy acquisition in the Teutonic camp can be said to be almost zero cost, so I haven't worried much about this aspect. "You can just take it yourself, and you can keep it when all the hiring process is over, and it should last you a few months. If you find that it is not gone one day, it is probably because the battery inside is dead, you can find a way to notify the Teutonic soldiers or the knights of the guards here to tell me, I will change the battery for you according to the situation......"
"Uh, 'iodine pool'?" Even though Feng Longde's words were translated into appropriate and correct language under the [Realm of Language and Thinking] imposed by Yayun Zi and reached Todd's ears, Todd, the mercenary captain, still couldn't understand what the battery was, just like when Hero was directly stunned after hearing some of the basic theoretical knowledge about crossing planes explained by Feng Longde.
"Forget it, it's something that powers it anyway, and you don't necessarily understand what I say. Shaking his head helplessly, Feng Longde glanced at the mercenaries who looked a little loose, and continued to Tao De: "Remember, since you have accepted my employment now, then you must do things according to the employment contract signed before- I don't want to see any of your mercenaries raid the human inhabitants or cause trouble in the human world, and if we find out that this is happening, we will settle it in the same way as we have signed a mutual employment contract. The losses caused to the human inhabitants or the human world here are to be paid by all of you in double compensation, and those who cause these losses will be rewarded with eighty lashes by the Teutonic soldier in charge of the execution for the first time, and will be hanged without saying a word if they are caught the second time, and those who attempt to mutines will be beheaded, and there will be corresponding penalties for violating the relevant regulations of the employment contract, understand?"
"I can't understand it anymore, my lord. Todd nodded heavily, although the employment contract signed by Feng Longde, the knight, with them was much longer than the employment contract they had signed in the past, it had to be said that it was also very detailed, saving the two sides from repeatedly arguing and tangling in some places that were not clearly defined, so as to destroy the employment relationship, "You can rest assured, we have always abided by the rules of the industry, and will be absolutely loyal to the cause of the collective, and to you and your commanders during the employment period." β
"Hopefully, it will save both sides trouble. Feng Longde nodded undeniably, in addition to being sometimes unreliable, mercenaries are afraid that they are easy to loot locally, so when he signed the employment contract at the beginning, he clearly stipulated that Todd and other mercenaries must not rob the human inhabitants here and harass the human world, otherwise if something goes wrong, it will not end well if Huiyin, the Bai Ze teacher, or even the undisciplined red and white witch of Lingmeng, provoke it, and it means that more things at the level of the moth need to be dealt with," Now you can start tidying up your overnight place for the time being, and don't forget to start the rest of the hiring process at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning. β
"We will never forget, my lord. Todd replied respectfully, and then began to direct his mercenaries and men to unload all supplies and luggage from several flatbed wagons, and set up tents for dinner and sleepover.
After seeing that Todd, the mercenary captain, was busy with his due work, Feng Longde immediately mounted his immortal war horse and began to walk slowly along the long-repaired road towards the Teutonic camp headquarters fort: although the inside of the two areas inside and outside the walls of the second layer of the fortress is under large-scale construction and the outside has not yet started, but the large and small roads that crisscross the city have been built in advance, and the advantage of this is that when the time comes to start large-scale construction in the corresponding area, the efficiency can be greatly improved, and it is necessary to build the road at the same time, which will affect the efficiency too muchγ
"Looks like you're pretty good at dealing with mercenaries, Feng Longde. On the way back to the headquarters fort along the road, Heluo, who had been sitting in front of Feng Longde, spoke, and sounded good in tone, "You seem to be able to talk to anyone." β
"I don't know what these mercenaries need, so I can make them obey my orders with the corresponding conditions. Feng Longde replied casually, but to be honest, Feng Longde is really the same as He Luo said, and can talk to many different types of people, the main reason is that he is relatively approachable and will not put on any shows, and he also knows some things to observe words and feelings, at least he will not speak crazy with an arrogant attitude and provoke a large number of people for no reason," In a little while, we will be back at Fort Headquarters, where my friends and I live, and it is more convenient to live, and if you wish, you can choose a room with me for the time being, and you will be free to move yourself, as long as you don't run to the places marked as free for idlers. β
"Oh, can we do this?" asked Herlo curiously, now far away from the mercenaries who were setting up their tents, so Herro also took off her hood, and the wolf ears on the top of her head twitched, "What kind of friends do you have?"
"My friends, two iron buddies and a girl, but the girl's personality is a little too ...... Well, some of them were too close to men, so I couldn't see her as a girl. Speaking of this, Feng Longde let out a long sigh, but his mood seemed to be much better, "That guy's name is Lilia, and he should be regarded as a fire magician, and now he spends most of his day studying magic with my sister Caroline......; There is a guy with a tall horse and big muscles called Weiske, that guy usually trains the Teutonic soldiers some hand-to-hand combat skills, although the character is heroic and straightforward, but at the same time has a sense of thief, which makes people feel that his character and his appearance are completely incompatible; , let Weisk and I see Richard being whipped by the flaming whip in Lilia's hand, and that thing has never learned its lesson, and deserves to be trained by Lilia all day long......"
"Hmm...... Judging from your description, you really have a group of interesting guys as friends. After listening to Feng Longde's description, Heluo tilted his head and replied, seemingly slightly shocked by the characteristics of Feng Longde's several strange friends, "But it sounds like you and your friends get along quite well, and your friends seem to be good people." β
"Well, those gang of sons are indeed good people, otherwise they wouldn't choose to be friends with a neurotic like me......" Feng Longde let out a long sigh, Helo's words reminded him of the fact that he had just met Weisk and the others a long time ago, and couldn't help but feel a little emotion in the heart of his soul, "If it weren't for their friendship, maybe I wouldn't be where I am now......"
"Hmm, hey, hey, why didn't you suddenly stop talking again?" Just when Feng Longde began to get a little distracted, Helo's crisp voice made him refocus his attention on the front of him, "Really, you always start to be in a daze for some reason many times, ignoring us aside!"
"Uh, I'm sorry, I'm a distracted person, sorry. Scratching the demonic ring-winged barrel helmet on his head, Feng Longde changed the subject and said to Helo: "You don't have to cover your wolf ears and tail in the Teutonic camp, after all, we have a fairly large number of non-humans here, and no one will be uncommon...... By the way, you can meet me and my friends then, if you want. β
"Well, we're going to see what kind of people your friends are. After thinking for a while, Heluo opened her mouth and decided, seemingly a little curious about Feng Longde's friends, "Anyway, we don't have to think about going back in a short time, it's better to see how the people and environment of this place are." β
"Hmm, what are you talking about?" Feng Longde asked, and when Heluo said the second half of his sentence, he happened to shift his attention to the first layer of the fortress wall that could be seen more clearly in the distance, and he didn't hear what Heluo said in the second half of his sentence.
"Nothing. Helo replied quickly, and the wolf's ears twitched and shook overhead, "You'd better hurry up." β
"Huh?" Scratching the demon ring-winged barrel helmet on his head again, Feng Longde didn't bother with what Heluo said in the second half of his sentence, and continued to focus his attention on controlling the immortal warhorse, "Forget it, it's starting to get dark, it's really time to speed up." (To be continued.) )
