Ryan didn't know how to answer Marquis Kachia's question for a while, he could answer honestly to his acquaintances to find a way to solve the conflict of vindictive power, but to ordinary acquaintances, he didn't want to answer truthfully.

Ryan thought for a while, then said with a smile: "Marquis of Kachia, I just want to take advantage of my youth to travel to various places on the continent and accumulate some experience. ”

This is the standard answer, there are indeed many swordsmen or magicians on the continent, who like to travel around and increase their knowledge.

"Oh!" Marquis Kachia replied, a little surprised in his tone, but it was hard to tell if he believed Ryan's words.

Ryan didn't care if the other party believed it or not, he replied like this, he just didn't want the other party to continue the topic.

Marquis Kachia really didn't continue the question, but talked to Ryan a few words on another question, and Ryan responded calmly. The identities and status of the two are too different, and they don't have any common language, so they all talk about the scene.

Ryan's personality determines that he is not a person who tends to be inflammatory, so he does not deliberately curry favor with the Marquis of Kachia, but just ordinary and polite conversations. And the Marquis of Kachia completely looked at the face of the third prince Mo Fen, so he treated Ryan as an ordinary person, otherwise in normal times, with his status and status, he would not pay attention to Ryan who had no status at all.

"Ryan, I heard you're a magical genius?" The level 7 mage on the side, Bibitus, said suddenly. After Ryan joined the Emissary team, Dean Cutton also took care of Ryan with Beatitus, so Beaters also briefly understood Ryan's situation.

"You've won a prize. I'm just a little lucky. Ryan said modestly, as always.

"I heard you're still a level 6 swordsman?"

"Yes."

"It's not bad to cultivate magic and fighting qi at the same time, but it takes too much time. People's energy is limited, and cultivating just one of them is no longer enough time. If you cultivate magic and fighting qi at the same time, you will have less time to share, and it is possible that you will not achieve high achievements in both! So you'd better think about it and choose one of them as your main cultivation. Bibitus groaned for a moment, and said in a concerned tone. He didn't know much about the situation of his fellow initiates' magical fighting spirits. Therefore, it is only from the aspect of lack of energy and time to persuade Ryan.

For Bibits's kindness, Rui was grateful, and naturally it was not good to say something to refuse. He couldn't tell the secret that he was energetic and slept a lot less than others, so he could only smile and say, "I also know this disadvantage." But now that I've cultivated my magic and fighting spirit to an advanced level, I really don't want to give up one of them, so I can only keep putting it off and see if there is any good way to solve this problem. ”

Hearing Ryan's answer, Bibites did not continue to persuade him. Later, many people present were very interested in Ryan's fellow practitioners' magic fighting spirit, and kept asking Ryan some questions, but Ryan was very affectionate and perfunctory.

After such a conversation, Ryan's relationship with many members of the Emissary Team has improved a lot.

Entering the grasslands of the far north, the envoy team passed through some tribes one after another. Small tribes pass through directly, and large tribes stop for a moment. Replenish resources such as food, and let the caravans trade with the tribe. Moreover, every half a month or so, the envoy team would find a large tribe near and stay for two or three days. Refresh and relieve the fatigue of the journey.

This time, half a month had already passed, but they had not encountered a large tribe for a long time, and in the end, the envoy team could only choose to camp near a medium tribe of about 1,000 people.

The tribes of the Far North steppes are generally very hospitable and friendly. Especially for this kind of team with mission missions and caravans, it is very welcome. As soon as the envoy team set up camp, the leader of the Hahu tribe immediately led many people from the tribe to visit, and after some conversation, he welcomed the Marquis of Kachia and other key members into the tribe and held a grand welcome banquet.

In consideration of the safety issue, the envoy team did not enter the tribe to repair when the tribe was repairing, but camped and repaired a place one or two miles away from the tribe, forming a certain distance from the tribe to avoid conflicts with the tribe. Since the tents and other equipment carried by the envoys were very complete, everyone did not feel any inconvenience.

After the Marquis of Kachia led the main members of the emissary team to the tribe, the caravans in the emissary team also began to form groups to trade with the tribe, and everyone in the camp was free to move around except for the necessary guards.

Ryan and Katisha are not members of the Emissary Team, so they do not accompany the Marquis of Kachia to the Tribal banquet. The two of them were free to do as they pleased, as long as they had to come back to camp in the evening, so they planned to wander around the tribe and see what good things they could buy.

"Ryan, let's go for a walk around the tribe." Before Ryan and Katisha could leave, Porto walked over and invited.

"Your Excellency Porto, didn't you follow the Marquis of Kachia to the banquet?" Ryan asked slightly surprised.

"That kind of banquet is too dull, I don't like it, it's better to walk around by yourself." Botu shook his head.

"Okay, let's go to this Hahu tribe together." Then the three of them walked in the direction of the tribe.

After walking for a mile or two, the three of them stepped into the Hahu tribe, but they saw a different situation, this tribe was too poor.

Most of the people in the grasslands of the far north are herdsmen, who live by raising cattle, sheep, wild beasts and hunting monsters. The environment of the grasslands in the far north is very harsh, and the living conditions are destined to be difficult, and the herdsmen cannot get rich. Along the way, the herdsmen that Ryan and the others met, although they did not look like rich people, they relied on the sale of furs and other things, which was enough to ensure food and clothing, and live a nourishing life.

However, the Hahu tribe that Ruian and the others stepped into at this moment can be regarded as the poorest tribe along the way, which can be seen from the patched and dilapidated tents in the tribe, as well as the patched robes of the herdsmen. Moreover, compared with other tribes, each household raises dozens or hundreds of cattle, sheep and beasts raised by each household here, in terms of numbers, it can be regarded as extremely poor.

"Impossible! The location of this tribe is very good, it is on the route of the caravan, and it is impossible to trade with the caravan, it is impossible to be so poor! Porto frowned, unable to think of a reason.

"It's not easy, just ask someone to find out." Ryan replied with a smile, and then walked over to a herdsman who was looking at Ryan and his group curiously.

After a while, the three of them quickly learned the reason why the Hahu tribe was so poor, and there was no other reason, and in a canyon near the tribe, there was a large bandit team. This bandit team has a large number of people, reaching more than five hundred, all of them are composed of fierce outlaws, and they are powerful, and it is rumored that the bandit leader is also a level 7 sword master, which can be regarded as one of the top robber teams in the Arctic Grassland.

This bandit team made a living robbing caravans passing by, and did not kill the tribes that lived in the neighborhood all year round. Although they did not burn, kill, loot and kill the Hahu tribe, they imposed a high protection fee on the Hahu tribe, plundered a lot of the wealth of the Hahu tribe, and caused the Hahu tribe to become poorer and poorer.

The three of them suddenly realized and understood at once.

"No wonder we haven't encountered a large tribe in the past few days, it turns out that there is a powerful bandit near here, and it is also a bandit led by a level 7 sword master. Does a level 7 swordsman still need to be a bandit? Wherever you go, you can be treated like a VIP, and if you hunt some high-level magical beasts a little, you can get a lot of gold coins, and you don't have to worry about eating and drinking. "Obviously, Ryan was interested in the rumored information that the bandit leader was a level 7 sword master.

Unexpectedly, Botu, who was a level 7 sword master, didn't think so, he shook his head and said: "In the eyes of people, level 7 sword masters do have a lot of status, but they also need level 7 sword masters to be decent and not do bad things. If the level 7 swordsman relies on his strength, does evil, and does a lot of bad things, then he will also be hated by people, and even wanted by some countries, and there will be more powerful people to arrest him, and then the level 7 swordsman will not be able to mix up no matter how high his strength is. This level 7 swordsman has been reduced to being a bandit, it is estimated that he is a bad person who does evil, and he can't stay in other countries, otherwise he will not go to the harsh environment of the grassland to be a robber no matter what. ”

Ryan nodded, he remembered that he had been wanted after killing people in the Duchy of Pools a long time ago, and although he would never regret killing Yatherine's husband, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned at the thought that he didn't know if he could go back to the Duchy of Pooles.

"So, don't go too far in everything, if you do it too much, and in the end there is no room for maneuver, it will end badly." Porto seemed to have some emotion, and concluded with a sigh.

"Since the bandits here are so powerful, why don't the people of the Hahu tribe leave here and migrate to other places?" Thinking that the nomads of the steppe would often migrate in his previous life, Ryan was very puzzled by the fact that the Hahu tribe would rather be poor than leave.

In this regard, Boto seemed to be much more experienced, and he smiled and said, "How can it be so simple? The Far North grassland has been divided into territories by various tribes, and now this territory belongs to the Hahu tribe, if they leave their own territory, then it is equivalent to encroaching on the territory of other tribes, and there will be a war with others for territory. There are many robbers on the grassland, and the robbers here are reasonable, they don't kill people and set fires, they only charge protection money, and if they run to other places and encounter murderous robbers, they may be wiped out by someone. Moreover, this place is located on the route through which the caravans passed, which is better than other places, and although there is much more difficult life due to the exploitation of bandits, it is still possible to make ends meet. I think that the people of the Hahu tribe survive with this mentality. (To be continued.) )
