Violet Tower.

When Kuzka City fell, Onisha personally rushed to the front line, and the envoys went to Norman City to ask for help...... The news had reached Allegri, and even the envoys calling for help had entered the "Path of the Lightwalker" right under his nose. ”

But until now, the envoys have not returned.

Allegri glanced at the immovable sky and snowy peaks in the northern window, and sighed with some emotion.

The current situation in the Principality of Anlan is by no means optimistic, and the surging army of the Holy See of Light is almost unstoppable on the open plain. Onesha could only rely on the terrain of the piedmont valley to build a defensive line, and try her best to support the day when Snowton's reinforcements arrived.

I'm afraid that only the Snowton Iron Cavalry from the Kingdom of the God of War can hedge against the Holy See army in the wilderness without falling behind.

"Commander?" a soft female voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Hmm. Allegri casually agreed, pulled himself out of his thoughts, and turned around before he said in surprise, "You're back, where is Bergey?"

Bai Ji, who was dressed in dust, had a little cowardice on her face, and replied in an inexplicable tone, "He is still in a valley fifty miles away. ”

"What is he doing there?" Allegri laughed, "Could it be that this guy has done something bad again?"

"This time it should be ...... It's a good thing," Bai Ji said with a little hesitation, spreading her hands, "You better go and have a look." ”

"What am I going to see?" Allegri wondered, "Wouldn't it be better to let him come back directly?"

"He's a little inconvenient, you can go quickly, Captain, you'll see," Bai Ji pleaded.

"Okay, okay. Allegri stood up, subconsciously manipulated the control hub, and shook his head with a wry smile, "This guy is really cunning, deliberately hiding out of the detection range of my magic tower. ”

Say hello to Brooke and the others. Allegri and Pakki switched horses and galloped away in the direction of the Misty Swamp under the guidance of the Barbarian Maiden.

The detection range of the Violet Tower is about forty kilometers, and Illo naturally understands this very accurately, and it can be seen that it is beyond this edge. Allegri and rode their horses for most of the day, and when twilight began to rise, they finally saw the valley that had spoken.

"I've asked you all the way, and you haven't told me anything," Allegri said helplessly to Bai Ji, "what kind of ecstasy soup did Illo pour on you?"

"Nope. Bai Ji shook her head shyly and explained, "It's just that I also support what he did this time." ”

"You support it too?" Allegri glanced at her and nodded, "Anyway, it won't be too bad, I'm finally a little relieved." ”

"You don't trust Illo like that?" asked Allegri, puzzled.

"When he's serious, he's pretty reliable. Allegri said viciously, "But all this time has passed. I've seen him serious once!"

Bai Ji laughed and nodded in agreement.

"But then again," Allegri asked Pakki with a smile, "your impression of him seems to have changed dramatically now?"

"He's actually a good guy," Bai Ji said softly, "though he's a bit of a scoundrel." But he doesn't seem to have a bad heart. ”

"Well, you're right," Allegri nodded and laughed, "so you'd better keep this blind optimism." ”

While talking and laughing, the two were less than 100 steps away from the mouth of the valley. On a boulder, the "good man" Illo was standing on it and waving at them.

"What the hell are you doing, Illo?" said Allegri, who rushed to him, turned over and dismounted, frowning.

"I'll show you something. Illo greeted him with a frown, smiled mysteriously, and pulled Allegri by the sleeve and walked inside.

Bai Ji shook her head helplessly, and led the two horses to follow.

The valley that Illo chose was a good place to hide, and the mouth of the valley was a twisted crack between the rocks, and it was impossible to see what was going on in the valley.

"What the hell is it, you have to give me a rough idea, right?" Allegri said helplessly.

"Of course, of course," Illo nodded repeatedly, "I've recruited some members of the mercenary group. ”

"Is that a good thing, is it so mysterious?" Allegri said, "besides, you're the deputy head of the rangers and archers, and it's your job to recruit the regiments. ”

"No, no, the people I've recruited aren't very suitable for being rangers, and they have families with them. Illo shook his head.

"It's better to bring their families," Allegri laughed, "and we can guarantee their loyalty by placing them in the valley." Is it a warrior? Then you can go to Dios. ”

"It's a warrior, a very powerful warrior, and Dios will like them very much," there was already a faint light at the turning point ahead, and Illo said, "But I think it's better to get your consent first." ”

"Why—" Allegri turned the last corner, and the whole valley was suddenly exposed to him, which brought his doubts to an abrupt end.

"How's it going, Commander?" Illo nodded and smiled, "It's a very powerful warrior, isn't it?"

"Yes. Allegri nodded dumbfounded, unable to believe his eyes.

"And with your family, Captain, you said you like this the most, loyalty is guaranteed, right?" Illo continued.

"Yes, yes. Allegri blinked blankly, this is indeed what he just said, but are these big men in front of him really suitable?

"Then you seem to agree?" Illo laughed lightly.

"Laugh, laugh at your size," Allegri finally reacted, and said angrily, "When are you supposed to be a human trafficker?

"It's not trafficking, it's persuasion," Illo said anxiously, opening his eyes and defending, "You won't disagree, will you?"

"What can I do if I don't agree?" Allegri snorted, "You see they even have pots and pans with them, hey, look at that big black man, if I'm not mistaken, it seems like he has carried all the tombstones of his ancestors?"

"That's a totem pole. Bai Ji stepped forward and explained helplessly, explaining everything that happened in the Misty Swamp in detail to Allegri.

"This is our regimental leader, and the Count of Violet of the Duchy of Anlan. As soon as Allegri figured out the situation, Illo led him into the valley, where the Maiden Priestess and the Stonefang Chief had been waiting for a long time.

"This is the priest of the tribe. This is Chief Mogolo Stonefang. After Ierlo introduced this side, he introduced this side, one in the ogre language, and the other in the continental lingua franca, shuttling between everyone seemed like a fish in water.

Allegri looked at him in surprise and asked in a low voice, "When did he learn the ogre language?"

"Just these days. Bai Ji replied quietly.

"This guy is really talented," Allegri shook his head, looking up at the Stonefang Chief and the hard-to-see human ogre sacrifice, not knowing how to speak.

"Lord Count," the maiden priestess hesitated for a moment. Or the first to speak, "I understand the lingua franca of the mainland." ”

"That's much easier to say," Allegri breathed a sigh of relief, "Illo, you translate for Chief Stonefang." ”

Illo nodded, and Allegri thought as he said slowly, "I already know your situation, and I agree to provide you with food and camp. ”

"Thank you, Your Excellency, Count. The girl said calmly.

"But I have a few requests. Allegri stared at the girl.

"Your Excellency, please. The girl was still indifferent. But the faint melancholy was still fleeting on her porcelain-like baby face.

"I, as the territory of your tribe, will arrange a safe camp for you. Plenty of food, I will keep your tribe safe and try to bridge the gap between you and humanity. Allegri paused, waiting for Illo to translate his words to Chief Stonefang, as well as the nearby elders and warriors.

"I hope you can do it, first, to cooperate with what I just said, and to cooperate with me to bridge the gap between you and humanity. Cooperate with a certain amount of production, which you can rest assured, will not exceed the labor intensity of human farmers. ”

"No problem. The maiden priestess and the ogres present all nodded their heads in agreement with the lenient terms.

"Second, when the territory is attacked. All the warriors of the tribe must take responsibility for their defense, and you will not object to that. ”

"Of course, to defend the territory is to defend ourselves," replied the Maiden, "Your Excellency, please continue. ”

Allegri glanced around at the ogres around him and said in a deep voice, "Third, the tribe must send a tenth of the population of warriors to join my mercenary group and participate in any war that may break out. ”

This condition was a bit stricter than before, and when Illo translated, the maiden priest, the stone tooth chieftain, and the elders immediately gathered around and discussed something in a low voice.

"Will they agree?" said Alegri in a low voice, knowing that a tenth was almost the number of all the warriors in the tribe.

"Yes. Allegri nodded, but did not explain.

Finally, the maiden priestess walked back as a representative, stared at Allegri and said word by word, "Yes, but you can't let our warriors go to death. ”

"I'll arm them all with metal weapons and equipment," Allegri explained, "and I promise that their casualties will never exceed those of the mercenary battalion's battalion." ”

The maiden priest pondered for a moment and nodded.

"That's the last point," Allegri said, glancing at the totem pole next to him, "I want you to swear to the ancestral spirits that you will not betray me as long as I can protect you!"

The maiden priest was slightly stunned, and after listening to the roar of the stone tooth chief translated by Illo, he stared at the little man in front of him viciously with a copper bell with big eyes, and roared angrily.

"What did he say?" Allegri asked Illo with a shrug.

"This, Allegri, don't mind, they treat the ancestral souls as gods and do not tolerate any blasphemy," Illo hesitated for a moment, "He said that you are so weak, what can you do to protect them." ”

Allegri snorted coldly, muttered a few words silently, and suddenly flicked his fingers slightly.

Tens of meters tall, a giant fire-breathing dragon appeared out of thin air, flapping its wings and standing in front of the ogre warriors, roaring into the sky and spitting out a fiery pillar of fire.

There was a commotion among the ogres throughout the valley, and the Stonefang Chief looked at the stout Charizard in fear, and then at the thin Allegri, scratching his head a little dazed. (To be continued......)
