On the way back to Valentine, Broken Tooth and several other captured scouts were curious about what the humans were holding. And the loud bang just now, what's going on?

Compared to hand-to-hand combat, this thin burning stick seems to be able to directly take people's heads from a long distance!

Such a novel weapon immediately attracted the attention of Broken Tooth!

"Eh, guys, may I ask, are you all about these people? I count... 36 people overturned the 600-strong wolf cavalry advance team? ”

"Is this a new crossbow in your hands? Can you shoot in a row, and knock down one at once? And ignore the armor? ”

This barrage of questions all involved military secrets, and everyone present had no right to answer, especially in front of outsiders, and they had to keep their mouths shut!

But... This question reminded Joseph, as the interim commander, of a proposal made by a member of the military.

Because there are not many soldiers in the north, and the lord also has to take the elite route, the final production of weapons may be far more than needed.

Not only the newly produced weapons, but also those used weapons, it is a trouble to deal with, and it would be a pity to remake scrap iron in the furnace...

It's better to resell them to other countries, and you can get back a wave of blood.

So... Muller, who was temporarily serving as a general, told Chris about the idea, and after the team thought about it, they came up with the idea of exporting to friendly or neutral forces, or selling weapons to the alliance at a low profit.

It's just that, so far, there is no alliance in the north, and no neutral forces have been found...

Joseph, as the smartest man in the team, immediately thought of this, so he looked at Broken Tooth euphemistically and said, "We have no right to answer these things, if you are a speaker of your tribe, or a diplomat, and you can talk to your supreme leader, you can talk to our lord." ”

Hearing this, Broken Tooth nodded thoughtfully, and then explained: "I am the third son of the big chief of our tribe, my eldest brother and second brother were all killed in battle, and my younger brother is only five years old, no accident, I will be the next big chief when I go back!" ”

If it was true, then the rest would be easy, but before that, Joseph had to verify: "In that case... Do you have any tokens to prove it? After all, we have to verify your identity! ”

The reason of this simple opinion is very understandable, even if he visits other tribes, he has to come up with something to prove his identity: "This is easy to do, I have a necklace in my clothes, and a customs clearance document, carved out of metal!" There is proof on it! ”

Seeing this, Joseph took out the physical evidence according to his wishes, which was a gold necklace engraved with strange words.

"Wow! This chain must be 3 kilograms! Joseph weighed the large gold chain, and this alone proved that this man was not ordinary!

Even if you are a human being, you have to be a nobleman above the viscount to make jewelry with 3 kilograms of gold!

Next, Joseph picked up the metal document again and checked...

According to their technology, it is impossible to age silver by conventional means, and the imprint on this should be a trace of weathering by time.

"The third son of the Great Chief Phoenix, Ala Ruak..."

"Hey, since I went out on a mission when I was 8 years old and broke half a tooth, people started calling me a broken tooth... The last time I heard someone call me by name was 20 years ago..."

"That's it!" Joseph probably understood that the person in front of him was not talking nonsense, so he jumped directly to the last item.

"That's... I'll just go straight to the last question, have your tribes ever acted hostile to us humans and the Moon Elves, including but not limited to attacking caravans, civilians, and..."

Hearing this, Broken Tooth was very upset, and he immediately interrupted Joseph's question, and emphasized with a stern face:

"What are you talking about? We are in the south of the forest, and we are only here to draw a map when we come to the north of the forest, and we have seen humans twice, once a blind old man gave me two pieces of bread, and the second time I saved dozens of you! Don't you believe Benjamin who peed his pants! ”

"Also, what do you mean by the Moon Elves? Is it a bee that collects honey? I do like to dig out honeycombs and eat honey, but what are you polite to bees? ”

Just as Broken Tooth finished saying this, Benjamin blushed and emphasized again: "Broken Tooth!" How can you talk nonsense! I haven't peed my pants, I swear, absolutely not! ”

"I never lied with my broken teeth, and I never lied since I was a child!"

Subsequently, the two quarreled again over the issue of 'wetting pants'...

...

At present, Joseph understood the origin of these people, and immediately knocked on the door in front of the truck.

"Co-pilot, show your face!"

Hearing the command, the co-pilot observer, who was sitting in front, peeked out of the window and looked back.

Joseph put his hand on the shoulder of the broken tooth, pointed to the window and explained, "This is the moon elf!" ”

Broken Tooth had never seen such a creature before, and in his opinion, these people just had a little longer ears and a little purple complexion, and the others were no different from humans...

"Huh? It looks very chic, and the ears are so long, and the hearing should be very good! It's good to be a scout or scout! ”

The co-pilot in front of him smiled awkwardly and did not answer, but closed the window with a smile.

Joseph hurriedly explained: "Uh... Actually, their ears don't make their hearing better, it's just a difference in shape..."

This is a secret of the North, and if it is not necessary, it must not be divulged, and if anyone asks, it will be prevaricated with this predetermined rhetoric.

According to an unnamed Moon Elf, the voices of Steve and Vazena, who magically enhanced her senses even from two blocks away!

Having obtained the desired result, Joseph put away the provisional evaluation form: "There is no threat for the time being. ”

"In that case, let's wait in the tower at the South Gate first, and I'll go back and report..."

"Okay, I'll wait for you!"

....

Two hours later, the convoy returned to Valentine, and after Joseph's report, Ted put down his work and planned to meet the third son of the great chief in person.

It's just that before they met, Ted pinched his nose and stopped in the hallway, unwilling to take another step.

"They stink, don't you smell them? Joseph? ”

"My lord, he does stink, but he saved our people, so I brought him in first."

"The one who saved us?" Ted was surprised by this, because based on his own experience in the game, this group of people should not be kind to humans...

But Joseph's expression, and the thumbs up of Benjamin next to him, didn't seem like a joke...

"Yes, Benjamin's family was saved by him, and there are many villagers, and they have not clashed with us in history, Mayor Chris has also checked, and there have never been red creatures in the north..."

When he said this, Chris next to him nodded and confirmed: "That's true, we have a green record, but we don't have a red record, and we can develop as allies..."

Since it has been verified by the housekeeper, there is no need for Ted to continue to dwell on it, he immediately motioned to Chris beside him to arrange: "In that case, we have to follow the rules of receiving the messenger, we have neglected them, so we will follow the highest specifications..."

The man who came had no conflict with the North and had saved dozens of human lives, and this man was the son of their supreme leader, the future heir.

It would be too abrupt to meet in person! You have to arrange a bath and sauna one-stop, eat a full meal, and finally arrange a meeting at the dinner.

"No problem, my lord, I'll go—" Chris spread out his notebook, made a series of notes, and then left here to arrange a reception!

...

At first, Broken Tooth thought that he was not welcome and was postponed to meet back, and there was a little complaint in his heart!

Especially being tied hand in the house for 2 hours doesn't feel like talking about cooperation or other friendly behavior...

But after being let go by the person in charge and taking himself and his companions to take a shower and change into new clothes, this idea was changed.

Rinsing your body with extravagant hot water, such a treatment is not even blessed to be enjoyed by your own big chief father! At most, it's a soak in hot water!

The body of the broken tooth is too large, and it is difficult to wash the body even in the bath, and it is difficult for them to deal with the dead ends, especially the back.

So, the person in charge hurriedly went to the bathhouse and hired a few strong bath masters to help these people wash clean!

People who have never experienced scrubbing must have resisted at first, after all, it is their own body, and it always feels weird to let someone else handle it!

But... Just try it a little and you think, it feels like it's pretty good! I don't have to do anything, my eyes are closed and opened, accompanied by a deep massage, and light sleep...

When I woke up again, I was not only completely washed, but even my fatigue was swept away!

After experiencing this 'high-end' service, Broken Tooth seemed to understand what this group of humans was going to do.

It is probably to express gratitude for his act of saving mankind more than ten years ago, because of his special status, he was regarded as a diplomatic ambassador, and he had to follow etiquette.

The highest standard of treatment represents an apology for the rude moment, and at the same time allows Broken Tooth to understand the local customs.

In the past, when the Fire Tribe and other tribes communicated with each other, there would be similar reception standards, after all, it was on behalf of a tribe, or a prince, and the etiquette had to be passable.

It's just that for the first time, he has enjoyed such extravagant diplomatic treatment.

Before, I helped my father to go to other tribes, at most, I had enough food and drink, but there was nothing else.

But this time, humanity... Just taking a bath and sauna just made my nerves stretch for many years! Especially in the sauna, hot air instillation, blood circulation and blood stasis, it seems that a certain vein in the body has been opened!

Of course, these are just appetizers! After this, there is also a hearty meal!

A dazzling array of food, a variety of rare fruits and vegetables, and a taste that has never been experienced, let the broken teeth who only know how to eat barbecue, salt and chili noodles, experience a new world!

"I'll it! What does this taste like? ”

He wiped his saliva and took a big bite on the soft crystal elbow, the taste exploded in his mouth, and the overflowing sauce made the taste buds in his mouth disarm and surrender!

Another mouthful of hot and sour soup went into my stomach, and my brain, which broke my teeth, went down...

"What does it all smell like? How? ”

Not far away, the once pretentious administrator changed his appearance, turned into the northern realm on the tip of his tongue, and slowly recited the lines prepared in advance, scaring the red-skinned giants in front of him!

"High-end ingredients often only need the most modest of ingredients..."

...

Half an hour later, the group had eaten all the meals, and the ensuing problems were exactly the same as those faced by Steve.

After experiencing the ultimate enjoyment in the toilet, these people gave a thumbs up and gave everyone a thumbs up.

"Oh my God, you northerners are going to enjoy it!"

As a smart man in the tribe, he could tell from the surrounding scene that there were not only humans in the north, but also slightly strange-looking moon elves, and if he said, 'You humans will really enjoy it', it would make others think that he was stirring up trouble.

Especially when Broken Tooth realized that he was being treated as an ambassador, he was a lot more careful about what he said.

Of course, just because you are careful doesn't mean you will lie, and Benjamin must have peed his pants back then!

...

At 6 p.m., the banquet began.

This time, Ted did not call in so many beautiful women to entertain him, but instead invited most of the political clerks to the banquet to record the conversation, as in a United Nations meeting.

There was nothing superfluous about the whole dinner, it was all about the necessities, about the knowledge of the Fire Tribe, and their historical traditions.

When the two sides got to know each other well, Broken Tooth received a 'joint agreement against the Greenwood Tribes' that had been drafted during the conversation.

Ted didn't plan to send troops to fight them personally, because at the moment, he didn't have that much effort to deal with the southern end of the territory, and the mess in the Xueman Empire was enough to keep him busy for a while.

Why not have an ally on par with Greenskins at a time like this that can help you withstand disaster?

The offer of free military assistance is not realistic, but... You can let them exchange things for things! Just earn a little less yourself!

According to the plan after the spring, the city hall plans to rebuild the city, and it needs a large amount of high-quality wood for furniture, so it is better to set the exchange content of the agreement to be paid for in wood.

The wood in the Monster Forest is definitely more durable, and since there are not many Moon Elves, Ted won't let them spend a lot of effort planting trees, and in terms of efficiency and value created per unit of time, planting trees is not a wise choice.

As a diplomatic dinner, Ted didn't talk nonsense, but directly asked the other party's opinion: "What do you think of this agreement?" ”

When it comes to dealing with diplomatic occasions and handling internal affairs, we cannot generalize our attitudes.

At that time, when I had a banquet with Steve, anything could happen at the banquet, and I could even drink drunk with a beautiful woman.

But at diplomatic banquets, there is not a drop of wine, only fine food and agreements.

After carefully reviewing the agreement, Broken Tooth read out the main part and summarized it:

"I took a look at the table you gave... That said, you don't have time to deal with the problems to the south, so you want to provide low-cost weapons assistance and let the Fire Tribe unify the Monster Forest and then border the land of the Earl of Highlington, do you? ”

Because Ted didn't know much about diplomacy, Chris sorted out the materials and replied, "That's pretty much, and we've invited you to be ambassador to the North, and you've been here to deal with diplomacy with us until you inherit the position of 'Great Chief'!" How is it? ”

This is also done after the consideration of Chris's team, so that the future big chief can live here and cultivate feelings with the locals, which can reduce the probability of the two sides turning their faces in the future, at least in the short term.

Hearing this invitation, Broken Tooth has no reason to refuse, this is the best way to increase friendship, and he has a friendly buff to save the northerners, so he will not be ostracized by the locals, and he can do his job better.

It's just that he is not the leader, and he doesn't have so much authority: "This... I'll have to negotiate with my father, the Great Chief, and I can't make my own decisions about this..."

"Well, I'll leave my lieutenant here, and I'll leave these things to the Grand Chief to consult, and I'll give you an answer later, how about it?"

Chris turned his head to look at Ted and bowed his head to say yes!

Ted then spread his hands and replied, "No problem... It's just that, as you said, you'll need to make your way through the Greenwood Tribes, or bypass their guards? ”

"Yes..."

Prior to this, the group had discussed the Greenskins, and knew that they would have a large army coming to attack Valentine.

So Ted kindly persuaded: "Then I advise you to wait for a while, because we have just eliminated their advance team, and it is estimated that their large army will soon come back to take revenge!" Let's let our troops crush them first! You're going back? ”

Hearing this, Broken Tooth hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "Not so fast, their advance team has 2 months of mission time, and the attack of the large army will be after the return of the advance team, and according to the general situation, they will complete the task in 15 days, and if there is a lot of loot, it will be extended to one month." ”

"After a month, a herald will be sent to contact, and if they don't, the troops will rush to see what is happening..."

"That is, at least a month to prepare, and I only need 15 days to travel back and forth to the Fire Tribe!"

"Oh? In that case! Ted suddenly had an idea in his heart!

"If you tell your father, the Great Chief, about this, we'll take a break!"

This proposal made Broken Tooth's eyes widen and clench his fists excitedly: "Yes! Isn't that going to wipe them out all at once? ”

Hearing this suggestion, Broken Tooth said the purpose of his mission this time: "This is one of the few good opportunities to defeat the Green Forest Tribe!" You can also take the opportunity to smash their voodoo magicians! ”

"Voodoo Warlock!?" Ted frowned, surprised at the word that only appeared in games.

The people who attended the banquet together also put down their pens to express their surprise, and the Moon Elf clerks present were more like they had heard something terrible, and even cold sweat flowed out!

Looking at the stunned expressions of the people around him, Broken Tooth explained: "Yes, according to our shaman, they are going to attack the forest and resurrect what 'master', as for what exactly they are going to do, we don't know!" ”

Ted seemed to calmly raise his glass and drank half a glass of ice water, but he was already panicking in his heart!

He originally thought that there were only human beings in this world, and it would be okay to spread advanced ideas and launch a small-scale war to unify the world, but he never thought that the racial relations in this world would be even more chaotic than "World of Warcraft".

There are only two camps in the game, and they are still two camps after pinching each other for so many years...

But on this sea blue star, there is not only the technology of your own camp, but also the elves, what a voodoo warlock! There is also a group of dragons that destroy the world...

Now, what 'master' has popped up?

Thinking of this, Ted intends to give up his pride and prejudices.

Before that, he thought voodoo or something was just a joke... But now, looking at the serious face of the broken teeth in front of him, and the performance of the moon elves, he had to reconsider these.

"If that is the case, then to help you is to help ourselves! We will personally send people back to your tribe, how far is your tribe from us? Do you know? ”

Broken Tooth immediately took out the map from his pocket, calculating the distance...

"Probably... Less than 300 kilometers away... But through the Green Forest Tribe! ”

"If your steel horses were to take us back, it would take 600 kilometers to walk from the main road outside the forest, but there would be no danger that way!"

Calculated in this way, Ted made up his mind: "That is... Around the perimeter, a maximum of ten hours away... That can indeed be considered! ”

With that, Ted asked Müller, who was sitting in his seat, to speak.

"Muller, go back and hurry up to train recruits, I will make them combat in a month!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the task, Mueller did not linger, and immediately returned to the barracks after collecting his papers.

Things are almost negotiated, and Ted has completed his first diplomatic affairs in his life.

It's just that the 'master' just mentioned always makes his heart tremble, as if there is a dark and deep power about to come out! It's better to be distracted and watch out!

"So... I'm waiting for your news on the agreement, it's too late to leave now, I suggest you take a break, plan the specific route tomorrow, and set off the day after tomorrow! ”

"No problem!"

...

The next afternoon.

The route was decided on in the morning alone, as well as multiple alternate routes!

Once the plan was finalized, the convoy left for departure, and in order to avoid trouble on the road, it was specially equipped with the M1917 Browning water-cooled heavy machine gun, which was still being tested.

Broken Tooth was bored, sitting next to the convoy and waiting, he wanted to leave immediately, but he also knew that it would be a foolproof trip if he had prepared in advance.

Ted was also there, and he combined his experience with books to show you how to install a heavy machine gun on a truck...

This thing, which required several people to install together, immediately attracted the attention of the broken tooth...

He knew that it was a military secret, so he tentatively pointed at it and asked Ted, "Mr. Earl, can you tell me what this thing is?" ”

Ted doesn't shy away from it, because sooner or later this thing has to be exported, especially to this tribe that is very likely to become allies.

Let him know his military strength, and let him go back and tell his father that the north is a rich and powerful place, and there will be no difference in forming an alliance.

With this mentality, Ted didn't refuse, but opened a box from the side and let the broken tooth pick it up and try it, anyway, there were no bullets in it, and nothing would happen...

After Broken Tooth picked up the heavy machine gun, he frowned and shook his head, and couldn't help but complain: "Hmm... It's fluttery, it doesn't feel like it..."

It seems that he was very disappointed with the heavy machine gun, and thought it would be a good weapon...

Hearing this, John on the side was not happy!

A heavy machine gun that requires several people to work together becomes something light and fluttery to him?

Ted saw what John meant, and immediately gave him an order: "Make a handful that he can use and show him..."

"No problem, sir! All I need is an afternoon! John put down the drawings and asked the people around him to continue installing the heavy machine gun while he rode his bicycle all the way back to the institute.

After Broken Tooth put down his weapon, a kind old doorman suddenly burst out...

"Huh! Hunk, don't know if you have time? 2 hours is enough! ”

"Huh? What's the matter with you, old man? ”

Ted was also curious about what the old janitor would say, so he turned around and listened...

"My son just opened a dental prosthesis, I see that your tooth is broken, do you want to have a stainless steel one?"

"Stainless steel?"

"It's a very hard and domineering material! You must like it, my son's shop just opened today, and I don't think there are many people, so I'm here to help pull customers! ”

"Dental prosthesis? It's a great place! Ted touched his beard and seemed to think of something!

At this time, the doorman realized that the lord was beside him...

"My lord, I'm sorry, I'm clumsy..."

Ted hurriedly stopped: "Hey, what a big deal, can you tell me the price?" ”

Hearing that the lord was interested in the teeth, he took out a flyer and handed it to Ted: "My lord, it's all here, you look first, I'll go back and continue to look at the gate!" ”

"Okay, here you go..."

Because of the habit of not brushing teeth and not loving hygiene for generations, people almost all have dirty yellow teeth!

Even if the level of hygiene was improved later, the lost teeth could not be recovered.

The same is true of his housekeeper Chris, with a mouth and only a few teeth, which looks unsightly, and he doesn't even dare to laugh...

Thinking about it this way, this dental prosthesis is indeed a place that can indirectly improve the standard of living, but no one has tried it yet, and the price is relatively expensive... So everyone is in a wait-and-see mode...

"It seems that we will have to come up with some money to subsidize everyone's teeth in the future..."

Seeing this, Broken Tooth did not hesitate at all, but directly followed the above address and said to Ted: "Can you take me here?" I don't know the way..."

"No problem! Guardsman! Take Mr. Ambassador to the dental prosthesis clinic! ”

...

Two hours later, the broken tooth turned into a steel tooth! Not only that, but all his teeth were also taken care of, and the light seemed to shine on his bald head, and it could even reflect the light!

Seeing this, Ted couldn't help but quip, "Yo? Mr. Steeltooth, how much did you spend? ”

Steel Tooth covered his head and said embarrassedly: "I didn't spend money, the boss said that I have big teeth, I can advertise them, as long as others ask, I tell them that they did it in Master Lea's teeth!" ”

"Our teeth are still weapons! Now, the weapon has become even harder! I even had a hunch! This steel tooth will save my life in the future! ”

"Oh? If that's the case, then you should take advantage of everyone's presence to take a few more walks and advertise them! ”

"That's right! That's what the Earl said! I'll go! ”
