Chapter 101 is over
Frank dared to swear in the presence of the gods, and his question was purely out of doubt, never intended to embarrass Urden. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
However......
"Uh... Haha..."Olden snorted, touched the back of his head again, looked very embarrassed, and said, "Hey! I feel ashamed to mention this. My mission, you know......"
"Annihilate or expel kobolds, goblins, and gray dwarves from the hills. Frank immediately whispered.
"Yes! Honestly, I really regret taking on this task!I thought the filthy goblins and the dastardly gray dwarves would be easy to deal with.... Well, it did start as expected. In the first battle, we roughly destroyed their main force......"
"Roughly destroyed?" was the phrase that confused Frank.
"That is, only a few of them escaped. Odden replied.
Frank was speechless, and had to give a thumbs up, taking the outstanding pretense.
"Then, it was our turn to be unlucky. The remaining goblins and grey dwarves no longer confront us, taking refuge in the cobweb-like, inscrutable, bottomless tunnels and craters of the hills. As you can see, we are all knights and are not good at tunnel warfare...... I don't want to recall the embarrassment of fighting in that dark, damp, narrow and winding place! In short, we will not be able to advance an inch for a long time afterward. In the end, the supplies were exhausted, and the division's veterans were tired, so we had to retreat for the time being. However, when we retreated, we were ambushed...... "Öden shook his head, "although we did not actually lose a single man, but ...... Ambushed by goblins and grey dwarves!You know! What a shame!"
Frank patted the other person on the shoulder, showing understanding and ...... Sympathize.
Edon ripped off his collar, sighed, and continued, "Anyway, we're withdrawing. I had planned to go back to a few nearby market towns to rest for a while, and then I saw this watchtower that suddenly lit up halfway," he said, pointing to the brilliant rune on the top of the tower, "Of course I'm going to come over and check it out! So, tell me, what's the trouble?"
Frank hurriedly recounted what happened to the team in Fort Forward.
The more he listened, the more Elden's brow furrowed. Finally, touching his chin, he said, "Hmm... It's a vampire and a lich, it's a big deal! It's very difficult!" But he suddenly raised his tone, and looked really impassioned, "but I know that this must be done! Death is never allowed by the knight's creed! What's more, they are the same robes that belong to the Duke's Palace!"
Turning around, Edon beckoned to his subordinates: "Knights of the Crescent ......"
But before he could give the order, the shouts that suddenly jumped around him made him unable to speak.
"They're back!"
"Oh, it's a wild lion, and his companions, and there seems to be someone else besides them. ”
"So, they've done their job?"
"Uhh
......
Frank and Urden reflexively turned their heads, and sure enough, they saw a jagged group of centaurs emerging from the gray fog. Led by the high-spirited wild lion Kapanik, followed by his triumphant companion, and the long-lost Ye Guyun, Weiss and Mephis, with a calm expression, they also noticed that the two tall guys among them were still carrying two people on their backs, and it seemed that they were probably injured.
Amid cheers, whistles, and coaxing, Kapanik led the team to the front of the watchtower, Frank and Edon hurried to meet them, and the emotional former ran even more shouting, he had a lot to say, but was stopped by Ye Guyun.
Ye Guyun pointed to one of the unconscious people who was lying on the back of the tall and strong guy.
"This is not a good time to talk about it, Mr. Tours needs medical attention. ”
............
Although the two surviving priests are not of high rank, their own skills in healing and healing injuries are quite solid, plus there are many talents who are proficient in herbology and first aid skills in the adventure teams and caravans gathered around, and Tur has already been treated by the high-level magic items that Weiss carries with him, so it didn't take much effort for Tour's injuries to be stabilized.
During this period, Ye Guyun, Frank and Edon have had an in-depth exchange and learned about their respective details.
"Oh my God, you—you fought off two vampires and killed a lich?"
Knowing the final outcome of the fort, Frank's face was full of chagrin - he was not able to witness it with his own eyes, but he was not the least surprised or questioned, and Urden was completely dumbfounded.
Ye Guyun tugged at the corners of his mouth, and didn't answer, but Weiss choked dissatisfiedly: "Should we be killed by vampires and lichs?" Compared with the gentle and respectful Frank, Weiss, who has a more intolerant personality, seems very unkind in her words, not that she has any dissatisfaction or disgust towards the leader of the Crescent Moon Knights under her father, but she knows that her Uncle Edon is generous enough to stand ridicule, ridicule, and jokes, especially from juniors.
"Oh, my Vess baby, I—I'm just too surprised. According to you, it's a person, a person! In a desperate situation, a single person turned the tide and turned the tide!Oh! It's too unbelievable!" Sure enough, Urden was not only not annoyed by this, but cooperated with a pompous expression to defend himself, and the tangled demeanor of being anxious to clear up for fear of misunderstanding made people anxious for him.
Weiss smiled lightly, subconsciously glanced at Ye Guyun, who was still silent, her face narrowed, and she said solemnly: "Uncle Olden, I guarantee that all the descriptions you have heard about the battle in the Advance Fort are all true. There may be omissions, but there will certainly be no half-fiction and exaggeration. ”
Edon shook his head with a wry smile, glanced at Ye Guyun deeply, spread his hands, and said, "Heh! I'm really ashamed! Your Excellency the Chief Advisor has single-handedly directed a Jedi counterattack and a shocking reversal, while an entire Order of Knights under my leadership has been unable to complete the assigned task...... I seem to ...... Very incompetent. ”
"Absolutely not!" Frank and Weiss were obviously very concerned about their Uncle Erden's feelings, and hurriedly reassured him, "You've done a good enough job, the task is not accomplished, it's just a matter of style." ”
"That's not an excuse! defeat is defeat, as a leader, I must take responsibility!" Unexpectedly, Edden was far more conscientious than Ye Guyun had thought, and he still regarded the unfinished work as a failure and blamed it on himself, with a frank and straightforward attitude.
"That's probably the biggest reason he's been able to serve as the head of the Crescent Knights. 」
"There could have been a better solution. Holding his arms, Ye Guyun said in a condensed voice.
Everyone immediately focused their attention on him, and he only pointed to Kapanik, the wild lion who was still happy not far away, and then pointed to the large group of adventurers around him.
"You're saying that adventurers are used to clear out the remaining goblins and grey dwarves that are still hiding in tunnels and pits? Well, in theory, adventurers are indeed a better choice, they are more flexible, they have more diverse tactics, and they are more adapted to fighting in complex and deep dungeon-like terrain than regular knights. However..."Frank showed a helpless expression, "A series of recruitment orders and bounty orders against these people have been issued early, and it cannot be said that they have no effect, but they are ...... It's really very average. ”
"It's not the same. Ye Guyun shook his head lightly and pointed at Kapanik again, "Now is a better time." ”
Stunned and after thinking about it, Frank understood what Ye Guyun meant, gave a thumbs up in admiration, shook it, turned around and walked to a high place. Of course, he was ready to give another speech to the wanderers who had gathered around and still hadn't dispersed. With Kapanik as a ready-made example, I believe that it will definitely inspire the enthusiasm of these slick, philistine, money-loving and life-saving, and piles of old fritters, old slippery old riffraff who don't see rabbits and eagles, accept recruitment orders and bounty orders.
Speaking of which...... It is conceivable that Kapanik, who is erected as a typical Kapanic, is likely to receive a high reward that greatly exceeds what he paid...... It can only be said that this wild lion is really a lucky enough guy.
"So, there's nothing more to us in the hills?" asked Ödenna.
"Perhaps. But don't think about being idle. Ye Guyun replied.
"I know, continue to clean up the large alien tribes that have gathered in the territory, and we must not let them become an obstacle to the expansion plan!" said Edon with a smile.
Ye Guyun glanced at the other party and said with a light smile: "Clear thinking, keen touch...... Mr. Odden has the gift of a political officer!"
"Hah! I think so, I always think!" said Urden, with a look of great agreement.
"But for now, please do your job as the head of the Knights. After a pause, Ye Guyun pointed to the mist in the distance, "Next, the knights have one of the most urgent tasks, which is to continue to clean this place, clean it up, leave no traces, and then cooperate with the special personnel sent by the temples, no matter what means are used, to expel the negative energy accumulated here as soon as possible." ”
"No problem!" Olden made a clear gesture and nodded again, "I understand! Although you have killed the lich that has laid everything inside, the negative energy hoarded here is too large, if we ignore it and just let it dissipate naturally, I am afraid that we will not have completed the process until we are all ancient......"
"So ......"
Without waiting for Ye Guyun to plead, Edon made up his mind: "So I will do my best, give the greatest enthusiasm, uphold the greatest determination, and cooperate with the churches to turn this place into a normal land as soon as possible! Don't worry, Mr. Advisor! We will do it! I also look forward to seeing the early results of the expansion plan!"
What else can you say? Ye Guyun could only say to this knight who was not necessarily strong enough, but was definitely enthusiastic enough, "Thank you." ”
Ye Guyun once again looked at the Forward Fort in the gray mist.
"Is it normal land? 」
The land near Fort Advance was originally in excellent condition. Its location on thoroughfares, its accessibility, its hilly terrain but its proximity to rivers, and its proximity to rivers have greatly improved its advantages for irrigation and transportation—and for these reasons, Fort Advance was always the most vulnerable and vulnerable of the neighbouring fraternal forts in war.
In short, whether it is agriculture, industry or commerce, there is nothing to be done here.
But now, it's different.
Shrouded in a thick layer of negative energy for a long time, it is inevitable that it will be eroded, even in the soil. After all, Fort Qianqian has been "mutated" for decades, and the soil here has long lost its fertile properties, and is now just a "wasteland" where no normal crops can be grown - this can be detected by the naked eye alone, and the purple-gray, loose sand, or sticky and glue-like soil does not look like it can grow crops. So, if you want to develop agriculture here, you really don't have to count on it. Seriously, it's not even a place for living beings to live.
Of course, there will always be a way to restore and improve the land to give it a new lease of life, but, as you can imagine, it must have been costly and time-consuming, which determined that it would not be tolerated by the Expansion Plan. Therefore, the great good deeds, great deeds, great deeds, great deeds and great deeds of restoring this land to its original state were never planned, and it was enough to put it in order to be able to live in it.
It doesn't matter if you can't develop agriculture! Wouldn't it be enough to develop handicrafts and commerce? The latter two never have to consider the soil under their feet! Besides, let Ye Guyun really teach the natives of the other world how to farm the land? Not to mention whether he is willing or not, the most basic thing is that he may not have this ability!
As a traverser, Ye Guyun said that he was really ashamed, he had been in the mess for two lifetimes, and to this day, he still hasn't mastered the housekeeping skill of our flower family, which is like a racial talent - farming......
