Chapter 707 Ice Earthworm
Slurp and stuff the meatloaf in your mouth. He felt that he had followed the right master, so generous. Then he replied, "I used to be a farmer, and I was kindly introduced by Lord Kirby of the Duke's Court to serve the lord." ”
Dipu knew that Kirby was nothing more than a small leader of miscellaneous slaves in the Duke's Palace, and he was not an adult at all. But well...... For this Lulu, it is already a high-ranking existence.
Dipu went on to ask: "Farming? ”
Lulu looked happy: "It's better than farming." The food I grow every year is not enough for my family to eat. My father and mother worry every day, and everyone in my village is the same. Knowing that I have the opportunity to follow you, my family doesn't know what it will be like to be happy. And the old man...... You're going to keep me, aren't you?"
"Huh?"
Finding that the team still showed no signs of moving, Dipu learned about the situation at Lulu's house. Only then did he know that the taxes of the demon clan were extremely heavy, so the farmers of those miscellaneous clans could only maintain a state of semi-starvation. In fact, this is similar to the situation of civilians on the Yuansheng Continent. But those civilians on the Yuansheng Continent can always go to the nearby mountains, forests and rivers to hunt some fish and beasts to satisfy their stomachs, and even some craftsmen can even do some side jobs. However, this is not the case on the demon side. Their farmland is all in some very safe places, and there is no prey nearby, so they can't even find supplementary food.
So joining the army or becoming a slave of those "old men" has become a way out of poverty. At least there is one less mouth in the family, right? If you can still make military achievements, it will definitely be a turnaround. And becoming a slave is a "golden road". If you can please your master, you can even have more land.
For example: if Dipu is really a demon nobleman and has a conscience, even if Lulu really dies on the battlefield, Dipu must arrange his whole family. Even after Tipu made military exploits. You can also get your own fiefdom. And the land in the fiefdom will definitely not be cultivated by itself, and it can be arranged for Lulu's family. In other words, it is Lulu who sells his life in exchange for a better future for the whole family.
Therefore, joining the army of a miscellaneous clan like Lulu is not only not a bad thing, but also a good thing to grab if you break your head. So listened to these. Dipudu couldn't help but gasp. If it is really as Lulu said, the demons are so "belligerent", then for human beings, the future war between humans and demons is really not very optimistic!
......
It's pitiful to think of this, staying by his side, and even being implicated. Dipu felt compassion: "When I go back, I will talk to the Duchess and make a good arrangement for you!"
Unexpectedly, this made Lu Lu nervous: "Master, don't you want me? But you can beat me and scold me, I can change it!"
"...... this?" Di Pu couldn't find a word of persuasion for a while, he could only wave his hand, "If you want to stay, then stay!"
"Eh, sir!"
After this conversation, Lulu seemed to be much more determined, and he worked harder. As if nothing was going on, he looked around the camel and checked the saddle. From time to time, there were a few smirks. Dipu also stood up from the ground and looked at the snowy landscape around him......
"Whoosh, whoosh!" Dipu suddenly heard a few faint cracking sounds. He reacts extremely quickly. An arrow scurried to the side of the camel and removed the round shield and broadsword hanging from the saddle. Finding that Lulu was still stunned, he stuffed the round shield into Lulu's hand, "Protect yourself and retreat with me!" No matter what happens, Dipu is now on the periphery of the team. So it's more dangerous. As long as you can retreat into the team and have protection, it will be much safer.
"For ...... Master, why ......" Lulu was still stunned. But at this moment, the "Wang" bark of the ironback dog also sounded. Some people are even shouting: "Enemy attack!"
"Master!" Lulu also pulled out the iron nail and wooden stick at his waist, and was a little eager to try, "There is an enemy over there!, sir, shall we go over?" Encouraged by Dipu's words just now, Lulu is still in the excitement period.
"Go fart!" Dipu kicked Lulu's ass, "Hurry back, hurry back!"
The average strength of the demon army is quite high. With just two thousand horses, there are already thousands of them with intermediate strength or above. Imagine, the most powerful knight order on the Yuansheng Continent, a brigade of tens of thousands of people, has more than a thousand knights above the intermediate level. Of course, the strength of the army is not counted like that. But in terms of individual strength, the demon clan has even surpassed the clan in the Forbidden Demon God Ruins.
But that's normal. Screened at birth, cultivated since childhood, and still growing up in battle, how can the strength to survive not be high? So if you don't hide behind those masters and fight Taiping Boxing, is Dipu that kind of hot-blooded and impulsive stupid comparison?
Besides, Dipu originally wanted to keep a low profile. If he really kills all directions and is extremely majestic, he is indeed cool now, and he has indeed gained countless admiring eyes, and he can wash away the reputation of "coward". But so what? Wouldn't Princess Gilly and Valkyrie be suspicious? So Dipu didn't want to fight at all.
However, Dipu did not want to fight, but the battle found him. Without warning, more than a dozen black shadows sprang up in the snow and swooped down on the two of them.
"Master, be careful—!" Lulu was loyal, holding a round shield in front of Dip. "Bang bang" a few times, and a few bumps appeared behind the round shield.
"it!, so fierce?" said Dip, startled. The round shield in his hand was taken from the Duke's Palace, although it was not a magic weapon, it was much more sophisticated than the standard weapons of ordinary demon armies. But just a few clicks, you can actually deform the round shield?
At this time, Tipu also saw what was coming. It is a long white worm about the length of a small arm. They are so fast that they seem to be flying through the air. I only heard Lulu shouting in a hurry: "It's an ice worm, an ice worm!"
At this moment, an ice worm slipped through the round shield and pounced on Dipu. Dipu took a stride forward, and with a single sword, he slashed accurately at the head of the ice earthworm. Although the speed of the ice worm is fast, how can it compare to Dipu's reaction? In addition, his dragon form body is quite amazing, and his martial arts skills have also been greatly improved. So this move is as if the ice worm took the initiative to hit the broadsword in Dipu's hand...... (To be continued.) )
