1421. The natives in the walled city
Enid did not expect to meet Surdak and Samira, two imperial people, who had been lying in the cave for nearly three days, relying on the small amount of food and water Surdak had left behind, and had survived the most difficult time.
After regaining some strength, Enid came out of the stone cliff, and returned to the tribe in embarrassment by digging wild vegetables and moss and hunting small beasts along the way.
When she saw the gate of the tribe in the depths of the canyon, her whole body almost lost a lot of weight, and her body almost exhausted the last bit of energy, looking at the tribe hidden in the jungle in the distance, she exhaled softly, and her chapped lips finally showed a touch of joy.
She is a very good group of young warriors in the tribe, not only has a strong physique, but also has received the blessing of the Great Witch and borrowed some power from the monsters.
The injuries on her body made her suffer in the wild this time......
If it weren't for her rich survival experience and knowledge of a lot of edible wild vegetables and berries, she would have almost starved to death in the mountains this time.
The demons have hunted almost all the prey in the mountains, so that all the beasts in the mountains are almost completely extinct.
She also vividly remembered that before the demons set foot in this mountain range, the most powerful existence in the mountains and wilderness was a large group of demonic beasts, and in some years, the hordes of demonic beasts in the mountains would even besiege her tribe.
Those beasts can be seen everywhere in the mountains, and the adult trials of young people in the tribe are quite simple.
Because it wasn't difficult to hunt a monster at that time......
I don't know when the adult trial in the tribe was changed to hunting a demon warrior, and I don't know how many young people died to complete this adult trial.
She wasn't one of the strongest young warriors in the tribe, but she preferred to use her mind.
During that coming-of-age trial, she used a black-horned elk to trap a demon warrior, thus becoming a warrior among the young.
Her eyes were bloodshot, the cheekbones on either side of her cheeks were a little prominent, and she let out a shout to the tribe in front of her, and the shout seemed to be intending to vent all the grievances she had suffered in recent times......
The mountains and the sky in front of me began to spin in a whirlwind, and they staggered and fell into the woodland.
Before she fell, a patrol tribe of warriors noticed her, saw her fall on the hillside, and ran towards Inid.
Enid could even hear her name being called......
'Inid, it seems to be Enid......
……
This is a large tribe with a population of tens of thousands, and they have even built a walled city out of countless giant trees in the valley, this walled city is hidden in the deepest part of the valley, surrounded by cliffs on three sides, only one side faces the gentle slope of the canyon, and there is a waterfall on the right side of the mountain wall, forming several waterholes in the walled city.
The walled city appears extremely secluded, it is obscured by layers of trees.
If you don't go deep into the valley, it's hard to spot this ancient city unless you take to the skies.
The wooden houses in the walled city are almost all built on giant trees, and the more advanced wooden houses are built on the canopy, and there are many wooden houses under the trees that are also connected together, and there are many aborigines living here, and the aborigines here have a very strict hierarchy.
Although hunting is becoming more and more difficult, the wild gathering of berries is still relatively stable, and the tribe gatherers have even divided the city into seven gathering areas, and all the trees that grow wild fruits and berries are well managed.
Before the fruits are ripe, these trees are even carefully cared for by these aborigines.
They also take special care of the fruit tree seedlings that grow in the valley, and when Surdak and Samira were brought into the valley by a group of indigenous warriors, they found that the fruit trees, nut trees, and berry bushes in the valley were almost all growing in patches, and there were not even any weeds or trees growing in these trees.
Surdak even saw the aborigines neatly covering the moss with some hay next to a fallen giant tree, and some mushrooms growing under the hay.
Walking into the valley, Surdak noticed that there would always be another group of aborigines with bags on their backs passing by them, and entering the huge camp in front of them.
He and Samira were able to find this place, but they also happened to encounter a team of demons on a hillside in front of them......
Along the way, Surdak has been restrained, trying to hunt as few demon hunters as possible.
He and Samira had come here to investigate the indigenous tribes here.
At that time, the demon team had just killed a few natives, and it was a wicker basket that attracted Surdak to the aborigines.
The wicker basket fell on the grass, and the mushrooms scattered out of it were three Imperial Blood Plants in addition to several mushrooms.
That's right! It was these three Imperial Blood Herbs that allowed Surdak to make an exception to eliminate these demons, which were magical herbs for concocting high-quality healing potions, which were almost impossible to buy in the magical herb shops in Bena City.
As long as this herb appears in the magic market, the price can not be discussed, as long as the potions masters see it, they will not let go, and now in the magic market, there are almost no healing magic potions, and this kind of potions are basically controlled by the hands of noble lords.
If it weren't for Surdak's possession of the 'Holy Light Technique', I'm afraid that he would have to hoard hundreds or thousands of bottles of these healing potions in his warehouse, and he might have the courage to go out to the plane.
Seeing the Imperial Blood Grass, Surdak couldn't help but rush out of the dense forest, holding the demon shield and swinging a 'shield slam', knocking the outermost demon warrior back two steps in a row, and before he could stand firmly, three arrows had already pierced the demon warrior's head, throat and heart.
Almost at the same time as Surdak and Samira attacked, a group of indigenous warriors rushed out of the jungle opposite.
The native warriors, who also had strange patterns on them, struck them from the other side, and the demon squad was quickly wiped out on the hillside.
It was because of this battle that Surdak was fortunate to meet these indigenous warriors who were not hostile to the Empire.
"...... you?" The indigenous warrior saw Surdak cleanly slew the four demon warriors, and took the initiative to ask out of respect for the strong.
The other two dozen or so indigenous warriors looked at Surdak warily.
Others looked at Samira stupidly, their straight eyes starkly indicating that their gaze wanted to penetrate from their snow-white necks into the collar of their leather armor.
Surdak took up the demon shield and put his broadsword back into its scabbard before saying, "Merchant! Merchants from the Bena Province of the Green Empire, we are considered to be a group of military merchants, and the reason why we went to this mountain is also to find some business opportunities, such as we are very interested in this kind of leather, this kind of animal bone, this kind of herbs, of course, we also have some goods shipped from the empire. ”
Holding a magic dagger, Samira quickly cut off the head of the demon warrior and picked up the royal blood grass.
Surdak's gaze fell on the rough leather armor of the native warriors, then at the bone spears in their hands, and finally at the magical herbs in Samira's hands.
Seeing that the indigenous warrior was a little puzzled, he took out some magic daggers from his magic waist bag, and the short daggers here are all magic daggers that are endowed with attributes such as weakness detection, sharpness, and bleeding, which are not only very good skinning knives, but also have some special effects on the bone armor of the demon warriors.
For example, Surdak held a magic dagger and peeled off a piece of the exoskeleton like cutting tofu, revealing the musculature inside the exoskeleton.
Seeing the surprise on the face of the native warrior captain, Surdak took the initiative to hand over the magic dagger in his hand, and the native captain also squatted down in Surdak's movements, and casually peeled off the hard bone armor on the demon warrior's body.
Now......
These tribesmen, who had never seen much of the world, were completely stunned by the dagger Surdak had brought out.
Where have the tribe natives here seen this kind of magic dagger endowed with a 'sharp' magic pattern circle, they don't even have ordinary weapons, and almost all of them are bone spears and beast tooth daggers in their hands.
The most important thing is that Surdak is fluent in the indigenous language, so he can express what he needs to say very precisely without unnecessary misunderstandings.
It was revealed that he was here to sell this kind of magic weapon in exchange for Warcraft materials and magic herbs.
He was not hostile to the indigenous people of the tribe......
Then he showed everyone the demon shield on his back to prove his hostile relationship with the demons, according to the logical relationship that the enemy's enemy is a friend, these indigenous warriors who have no prejudice against the people of the empire accepted him very happily.
It is for this reason that he and Samira were invited by these indigenous warriors to enter an indigenous tribe with a huge walled city.
And met the great patriarch of this tribe very smoothly......
……
A tribal patrol scurried through the gates of the walled city, with four indigenous warriors behind them carrying an improvised stretcher.
Unconscious, Enid lay on it, and the sturdy young native warriors strode towards the building at the top of the walled city......
Along the way, the tribe natives in the walled city came over to check the Enid on the stretcher.
One of the onlookers recognized the wounded warrior as Enid and immediately ran to Inid's house to inform her family of the news.
The buildings in the walled city were cluttered, many of them were built around the giant tree, and the roads in the walled city were winding and rugged, but the young warriors were very fast running barefoot.
A group of people were carried to the front of the Great Witch's treehouse, and the highest-ranking Great Witch in the walled city, Elder Ambrobie, happened to be outside the treehouse, and was standing on the steps outside the wooden house with the Great Patriarch to talk.
The native warriors carried Enid over, and Elder Ambrobee asked the handmaidens to untie Pijie from Enid's body.
Grand Elder Ambrobi examined the injuries on Enid's body, a smile appeared on the wrinkled old man's face, and he said slowly to the native warriors around him:
"She's fine, she's recovering well, she just needs to take a good rest, and when she wakes up, she will recover with a big bowl of broth."
Then he turned to look at the patriarch Logan and said with a smile: "She is fateful, she can recover so well after this kind of penetration......
Seeing that Enid's injuries were not serious, the Grand Patriarch Logan scolded the young indigenous warriors with some impatience: "If it's not a life-threatening injury, you'd better not bother Ambrobie, you should use your brains more often!" ”
The young native warriors who had been reprimanded blushed and stood aside with some trepidation.
Grand Patriarch Logan waved his hand for the reckless group of native warriors to retreat before asking Elder Ambrobie:
"You're not going to meet those Imperials?"
Elder Ambrobie's eyes were deep, and he paused for a moment before turning back and walking back into the cabin, and said:
"I know what they need, give them these hedrons, and they'll sell you some of those magic weapons."
Grand Patriarch Logan followed Elder Ambrobie into the spacious wooden house and said:
"They don't seem to say this, but they are very interested in magical beast materials such as leather teeth and magic herbs, saying that they can exchange those magic weapons, I think we should exchange some magic weapons for our escort team, so that they will have more powerful combat power in the face of those evil spirits."
Elder Ambrobie shook his head, stood by the wall in the room, removed some of the necklace-like magic crystals that hung on the wall, and handed them to Grand Patriarch Logan.
"Those magic materials and herbs are also very useful to us, now that there are fewer and fewer magical beasts, if you want to hunt these things, you have to go north, but these spars are of no use to us, Logan, you can take out more to trade with them." Elder Ambrobie said with great clarity, "I heard that this kind of hedron is very valuable in the Empire."
Grand Patriarch Logan immediately took it, hung a string of magic crystals on his wrist, and said respectfully:
"Okay, I'll do what you want."
Elder Ambrobi nodded, and then, as if remembering something, said casually:
"Now that these demons are getting more and more difficult to deal with, you can unite with the other tribes in the vicinity and have them send some young warriors to form a convoy as well."
"Yes......" Grand Patriarch Logan agreed.
Elder Ambrobie's gaze softened, he walked to the central seat and sat down, and said in a gentle voice, "Okay, if there is nothing else, don't bother me here, you can entertain your guests." ”
Grand Patriarch Logan walked out quickly......
Only then did the young native, who had been beside him say to Elder Ambrobie:
"Great Witch, they are not our guests, they are the Empire, they are the ones who kept killing our compatriots and drove us here, I want to ......"
"Give up your dangerous thoughts, Djeruta." Elder Ambrobee interrupted the young man very harshly, saying, "They have given us an opportunity to fight against the evil spirits, and if we give up this opportunity, I don't know how many young people will die innocently, and now, if we want to survive here, we must use every opportunity to strengthen ourselves." ”
"Got it, Great Witch!"
The young native named Jeruta immediately bowed his head and said respectfully.
