At dusk, Richard's party arrived at Camp Bloodstone. This place is one of the links between the Red Mountain Kingdom and the Bloodstained Lands, with a permanent population of around two thousand and eight underground springs.

An orc tribe called Bloodstone controlled most of the camp, and the chieftain Thunderhammer was a fourteenth-level warrior who led hundreds of strong orc warriors to control the four springs.

In addition to Thunderhammer, there are four powerful people in Bloodstone Camp, namely: Mark the Bloodsickle, Caron the One-Eyed, Howen the Cripple, and Huly the Razor. Their strength ranged from level twelve to fourteen, and each commanded a hundred or so warriors.

There were a few orcs standing at the door of the Bloodstone camp, and when they saw Richard's team, their leader stepped forward and asked, "What are you here for?"

Minnie tossed the nameplate of the Blood Scythe Mark to the orc captain and said, "My lord wants to get some good goods from the barbarians, so let's try my luck, we have already paid the tax." This is a set of rhetoric that has been prepared before.

The orc captain looked at the nameplate, then at Richard, who was gathered in the center of the team, and said, "It's Mark that idiot again! Bloodstone Camp doesn't collect city taxes, and this sign won't do you any good, so you'd better throw it in the garbage!"

"Thank you, Warrior!" Minnie said, handing over a few silver coins.

The orc captain took the money and said, "Little girl, you are very beautiful! Go in and good luck!"

Upon entering the Bloodstone Camp, a strong smell greeted him! Reilly raised his hand and blessed himself with a hurricane armor.

"Hey, mana isn't such a waste, is it?" Richard frowned.

"Hey, don't you know how to take care of the lady?" Erin frowned as well.

Reilly said to Richard, "Brother, my mana is boundless, not afraid of consumption!" After saying that, he blessed several ladies in the team with hurricane armor.

Richard rolled his eyes and said, "Then why didn't you bring me a Hurricane armor?"

"Because I'm lazy. Reilly replied so confidently that Richard couldn't stop laughing.

After entering Camp Bloodstone, Richard secured one of the best inns available. The inn is the property of Thunderhammer, and as the founders of the camp, the orc tribe is also in the vanguard of maintaining order. Of course, the best service meant the most expensive price, and it took Richard a full thirty Temple Gold coins to secure the inn for a month.

Over dinner, Reilly and Richard talked about the future: "What are you going to do next?"

"I'm going to have to make contact with Thunderhammer before I can decide on my next move. ”

"Why Thunderhammer?"

"Thunderhammer is the owner of this place. ”

"Do you want to work with him?"

"It doesn't have to be a collaboration, it can be a deal or a tentative. Richard thought for a moment and said, "We are outsiders, and if we want to make a living here, we must first look at the movements of the thunder hammer." ”

"In that case, I'll talk to Thunderhammer tomorrow. Reilly nodded and said.

"Do you want to bring a few people?"

"No, I have Gore and the Dawning Knights. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for your news tomorrow. ”

The next morning, Reilly arrives at the castle of the Bloodstone Tribe.

It is a building more than twenty meters high, with sharpened wooden stakes sticking out of the walls, with a strong orc style. Several flags fluttered in the air, and a blood-dripping war hammer was painted on the dark red cloth.

After revealing his identity as a mage, Rayleigh soon met the chief of the Bloodstone Tribe: Thunderhammer.

After meeting, Thunderhammer asked straight to the point, "Mr. Reilly, are you a mage?"

"That's right. ”

Thunderhammer looked a little excited, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and continued, "I heard that the great magicians are very good at making magic items?"

Reilly smiled and said, "The items I can craft are also limited, and most of them are equipment used to improve combat effectiveness. ”

"I just need equipment to improve my combat effectiveness!" Lei Hammer said eagerly: "No matter what it is, as long as it can make my combat power close to level fifteen, can you help me with this?"

Reilly thought for a moment and said, "I need a lot of materials, and I still have some time. In addition, I need to know the reason why you are in a hurry to improve your combat effectiveness before I can develop a suitable plan for you. ”

Hearing Reilly say that he wanted a large amount of materials, a trace of undisguised joy passed through Thunderhammer's eyes. Seeing that his wish for many years could come true, this powerful warrior was already a little impatient: "In the western Breath Stone Forest, there is a powerful mutant demon wolf named Swift Shadow. Two of my most powerful sons have died under its claws, and my own strength is only on par with it, so I can't kill this beast at all!"

"Why don't you take the warriors and besiege it?"

Thunderhammer sighed and said, "Swift Shadow is cunning, and its intelligence is not inferior to that of humans. If I go to it alone, Swift Shadow will accept my challenge, and if I bring the Warrior of the Tribe, it will go into hiding, and even the best hunters at tracking it will not be able to find it. In recent years, we've also sent out bounties to outsiders, but we still can't get rid of it. But this beast uses the Bloodstone camp as his granary, and runs over to hunt for food in the winter. ”

"If that's the case, I can help. ”

Thunderhammer's eyes lit up and he said, "What do you need?"

"We need a lot of things, warriors, slaves, horses, materials, minerals, and a map of the bloodstained lands and a map of the distribution of forces, the more detailed the better. ”

Thunderhammer pondered for a moment and said, "We have accumulated some magic materials, and there are ores in them, but since no one knows how to use them, they are all piled up in the storehouse. Those things, you can pick and choose. Plus, I'll be able to provide you with twenty powerful warriors. In terms of maps, we only have detailed maps of the surrounding area, and further afield areas are more obscure. However, can you tell me how you plan to improve my combat effectiveness?"

"I can make you a triple enchanted armor, even Swift Shadow can't break through its defenses in a short time. ”

"If that's the case, I'll be able to kill Swiftshadow!" the orc chieftain's eyes were blazing, as if he had seen himself once again fighting the mutated demon wolf. He personally took Reilly to the storeroom, took out all the treasures of the past years, and let him choose.

As soon as he entered, Reilly saw something that interested him: a yellow-green ore with shiny crystals on it, a piece of pyrite crystal!

Reilly had just picked up the one-kilogram piece of yellow iron crystal, and a piece of amber covered in blood-colored patterns rolled out next to him. When he smelled a faint scent of herbs, he was sure in his heart that it was a rare piece of maple amber.

Yellow Iron Crystal and Maple Amber are both second-order materials, on the Norland Continent, one kilogram of Yellow Iron Crystal can be sold for 100,000 gold coins, and the fist-sized Maple Fragrance Amber in front of him can be sold for at least 200,000 gold coins.

These two second-order materials were not distinguished, but were stacked together with other materials. Based on this phenomenon, Reilly judged that their production in the Faro plane was not small, but their use was very limited. It can be seen that Faro's alchemy industry is quite backward, several levels worse than Noland.

Reilly inquired about the prices of various materials to test his hypothesis.

The magic materials in the treasury can be sold for about 10,000 gold coins in the bloodstained land, and if there is an open trade channel, they can be transported to the human kingdom and sold for 30,000 gold coins. And in Norland, the total value of this batch of materials is close to half a million gold coins!

(close to fifty times the profit...... I'm also drunk. ）

Reilly was not carried away by the huge benefits. From what he saw and heard today, he clearly saw the danger of the Bloodstained Land. An orc tribe with no magical inheritance has accumulated such a wealth of magical materials, and its origin is obvious.

Reilly thought for a moment and said, "All the magic materials, plus twenty adult warriors. If you are not sure, you can also wait until the delivery time to pay. It just so happens that I still have some materials in my hand. ”

Thunderhammer waved his hand haughtily and said, "No need, I believe in the credibility of a great magician!" He wrapped up all the materials and asked, "When can I get the things?"

"Three days later. ”

The orc chief looked at the Dawn Knight behind Rayleigh and said in a deep voice, "I've been waiting for five years, and I don't care about these few days! I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer!" To be honest, the reason why he was so polite to Rayleigh was largely due to the presence of the Dawn Knight. Faced with a heavily armed fifteenth-level knight, the orc chief didn't mind lowering his posture a bit.

"Then let's wait and see. Reilly smiled and walked out of Bloodstone Castle.
