Chapter 97 Safari I
Lunch turned into an unexpectedly successful deal, but the 50,000 gold coins didn't stay long in Richard's hands, and it was only a day's work back in the hands of the various forces in the Blue Water Oasis. &&As a patron who spent 50,000 gold coins in one day, Richard gained universal respect and envy. Except, of course, the Red Cossacks.
The Blue Water Oasis was a place where news could not be hidden, and the idea that Richard was hostile to the Red Cossacks soon reached their local chief.
Richard was extremely ferocious, and he solved Stitch in a series of battles overnight, which shocked many people. Then, within two days, a trade in magic products linked him to Luo Fu, the only Sanctuary powerhouse in the Blue Water Oasis, and the Golden Radiant Battle Banner, which was not inferior to the Red Cossacks, and also made the Red Cossacks have some scruples and dare not attack openly. But the Red Cossacks' scruples were also confined to the city of the Blue Water Oasis, and it was difficult to say what would happen to Richard as soon as he left the city.
Twenty thousand of the 50,000 gold coins were exchanged for various magic materials, increasing the number of constructs that Richard could make from two to seven. But if you use all of them to make that kind of shrunken build, you can make twenty. The rest of the gold coins were turned into a hundred sandfolk slaves and fifteen barbarian warriors of the Snow Peak tribe.
The sand people were all grown men, not very tall, dark-skinned, and accustomed to thick beards. They generally have a combat power of about five levels, which is not outstanding, but as Tifman said, endurance and horsemanship are the characteristics of the sandmen, as long as they are given a horse and a scimitar, they are a very dangerous enemy in the desert.
The sandfolk are fierce and aggressive by nature and very dangerous, and it is not uncommon for the sandfolk slaves to riot and kill their masters. Therefore, in the human kingdom, most of the sand people are used for hard labor in the mines, or they are on the front line of the battlefield and become cannon fodder troops.
The barbarian warriors of the fifteen Snow Peak tribes swore allegiance to Richard in the name of their ancestors.
There are many ways to control slaves, the barbarians of the Snow Peak tribe are one way, and for the sand people, Richard has changed his method.
He organized all the sandfolk slaves into ten teams, each of which chose a strong man to be the captain. If someone in the party runs away or tries to resist, the captain will be killed along with the rebels, and two people will be randomly selected from the team to be victims. On the other hand, Richard also promised that if he killed more than 10 people in future battles, he would be immediately freed and receive 10 gold coins. If you are willing to stay in Richard's team, you will be rewarded with two gold coins for each enemy killed.
When arming the Snow Peak Barbarians, Richard was much more careful, carefully equipping them with weapons and armor, and spending a lot more gold coins accordingly. Richard's promise to the barbarian warriors was to kill twenty enemies and be free.
How effective this means is is unclear, but Richard can test it in future battles.
After staying in the Blue Water Oasis for a few more days, and after replenishing the necessary supplies and equipment, Richard left the Blue Water Oasis with everyone and headed deeper into the Bloodstained Lands.
Now that his strength has swelled to a certain extent, he can be regarded as having some more friends with interests in the Bloodstained Land. Richard was given a plot of land on the outskirts of the Blue Water Oasis, with a well-equipped house, barracks, and prison, and a sufficient number of miscellaneous servants. This piece of land is worth a lot of money and was jointly donated by Tiffman and Louvre. This site is both a fortune and a sign that Richard has his place in the bluewater oasis city. The reason for the gift of land was partly because of Richard's construction, and most of it was because of the demigod behind him who only existed in his imagination.
Before leaving the Blue Water Oasis, Richard sent a letter to the Red Cossacks, asking them to hand over Hook of Hearts and compensate them for a hundred horses.
After reading the letter, the head of the Red Cossack immediately flew into a rage, smashed half of the room, and kept swearing that he would break the ugly boy into pieces.
The oath of the person in charge was well fulfilled, as long as he mobilized a few hundred Red Cossack guards in the Blue Water Oasis, and walked less than a kilometer to reach the inn where Richard was now living. However, the person in charge eventually decided to confine his anger to his office and ignored Richard's letter.
But not completely ignorant, the person in charge spent an entire afternoon writing eight letters to his acquaintances, and successfully put Richard on the black list of the Red Cossacks. As soon as Richard's traces are found in the field, the guards will intercept them on the spot. On the other hand, the person in charge issued a bounty on Richard to all the thieves who did the black work through the gray channel, with a bounty of 10,000 yuan, whether to die or live.
Unaware of how valuable his head had become, Richard just led a large number of his men into the depths of the Bloodstained Lands.
No one knew the purpose of his trip, and the people in the Blue Water Oasis only thought that Richard had another secret mission. His presentation at that luncheon impressed all the attendees, especially the way he dealt with the two-piece construction deal at the end, showing wisdom beyond his years. People even speculated that this should be a preset scenario by the family or forces behind Richard, and his assessment has also been promoted from a promising noble child to a core child who can already confirm his future.
However, only Richard and a few of his closest people knew that this expedition into the Bloodstained Lands did not have any destination, but was simply a safari. War and killing are one of the quickest ways to grow your power, no matter what the plane.
It was a peculiar formation, with a hundred sand cavalry led by infantry knights and knights, and two ogres and barbarians who could only walk on foot, and no horse could bear their weight. Fortunately, they are also accustomed to running, and their endurance is not much worse than that of cavalry, whether it is a short sprint or a long distance.
Richard, Quicksand, Sandru and other priests rode forward, without a single carriage in the procession, and the few pieces of equipment were tied up in cages and placed on spare horses. Half-orc warriors are not very good knights, but they have no problem walking on horseback.
The team of more than 100 people carried nearly 300 war horses, so that mobility could be fully guaranteed. On the periphery are wandering fangs.
On the fifth day of deep into the Bloodstained Lands, another strange team appeared in front of Richard.
More than twenty knights formed a scattered formation and walked slowly. In the middle of the ranks, there were barbarians tied in a string, numbering nearly a hundred. There were adults, teenagers, and women, but there were no old people. All the savages were wounded, barely walking, and anyone who walked a little slower would be whipped a few times.
This was the first slave catcher Richard encountered, and what made him even more concerned was that this slave catcher was flying the red Cossack flag. So it only took Richard half a minute to make a decision, he pointed to the slave catchers, and said coldly: "Kill them all!"
: Weekend, three watches today.
