my age of magic

Chapter 1284 88. Anecdotes of the Eastern Camp (2)

In the eastern camp of the Green Valley Jungle, nearly [-] Hierro native warriors were fighting against the Nebru Spiderman.

These indigenous warriors formed thirty teams of one hundred to hunt down giant spiders and lone spider warriors in the green valley forest in the east.

After gaining the initial trust of the natives, Cassandra gradually began to establish trade relations with the natives in the Green Valley Forest. She basically transported some obsolete weapons and equipment from Tanton City and sold them to the Green Valley Forest In exchange for some local products, magic herbs and some special fruits in the Black Forest, they will be transported back to Tanton City.

The [-]-man squad of native warriors obtained some military crossbows and mail armor left over from Tanton City, and their combat effectiveness was significantly improved.

These [-]-member squads are best at fighting guerrilla warfare in the jungle. They have rich combat experience, and even dare to ambush and kill Spiderman scout squads with less than five people.

They usually won't fight with a spider warrior team of more than five people, and when they encounter a large group of spider warriors, they will run away if they can, and if they can't escape, they will decisively climb up the tree.

Although the spider warriors have strong climbing ability, they are too heavy, and basically they will not try to climb to the top of the red pine tree canopy tens of meters high to hunt the indigenous warriors.

In the black forest, the natives of Yero have their own set of survival rules.

Kalancuo's orc team and this group of natives don't usually communicate much, but there is a tacit understanding between the two parties.

The native centurion is mainly responsible for clearing the giant spiders in the eastern jungle.

Kalanzo and Justus led the orc warriors and barbarian slave warriors to hunt down all the Nebru spidermen who ran out of the spider camp from the front.

After being taught by Earl Rez and Knight Jason, the orc warriors have mastered some of the most basic knight fighting skills.

They have been fighting spider warriors in the green valley forest, and have accumulated some combat experience on horseback. At this time, the power of the orc-constructed knights gradually began to manifest.

In addition, with the help of the dryads, the heavy crossbows in the hands of the barbarian slave warriors showed great power. The barbarian heavy crossbows almost overwhelmed the spidermen in the east of Green Valley so that they did not dare to leave the spider camp easily.

During this period of time, small-scale encounters occurred frequently outside the spider camp, and the military supplies were once extremely short.

The base number of giant crossbow bolts in the hands of the barbarian slaves is not even enough for their three-round salvo, and almost all the corpse fire oil has been used up by the orc fire-breathing team, so they are staying in the camp, waiting for my general supplies to arrive.

This time I came to the front line, and besides the giant crossbow arrows of corpse fire oil, I also brought eleven large boxes of canned luncheon meat and a small amount of healing potion.

There are nearly [-] boxes of canned luncheon meat in eleven large wooden boxes. The reason why so many canned luncheon meats are brought here is mainly due to the fact that the Hierro plane is humid and rainy, the weather is hot, and the baked wheat cakes are easy to deteriorate. There was no way to use it as marching rations, so all the canned luncheon meat from the trading house was transported to Xinliu Valley as marching rations for the orc warriors.

When the barbarian slaves were in the camp, their greatest joy every day was holding a bonfire dinner with spider legs grilled, so they didn't need these baked wheat cakes and canned beef at all.

Justus now replaced Bernd as the leader of these barbarian slaves, directly commanding these barbarian slaves.

In front of these barbarian slaves, Justus often restores his half-demonized body, covered with green scales, his upper body has a human-like body, but his strong body is full of bone spurs, and his lower body is like a snake A blue tail covered with scales like a human, or a fish tail like a male of the Gana Sea tribe.

The barbarian slaves didn't mind Justus taking this form in battle, they just respected the strong.

Leading these barbarian slaves, Justus can let himself go freely, and is even more unrestrained. Therefore, recently, he has led these barbarian slaves to fight in the eastern part of the Green Valley Forest, which is also very pleasant.

Some unpleasant experiences in the northern border made these barbarian slaves unwilling to deal with orc warriors, but the barbarian slaves were very willing to deal with native warriors.

The climate in the jungle is warm and humid, and it is full of miasma and plague poisonous insects. The barbarian slaves use the mysterious meat and spider silk from giant spiders to exchange mosquito repellent potions and plasters for skin diseases from the aborigines.

The barbarian slaves wore full-cover black iron armor all day long. Some joints on their bodies were worn out by the black iron armor. The muddy water was almost soaked, and more than half of the barbarian warriors suffered from serious skin diseases. Some herbal formulas formulated by the Yero natives fundamentally solved the pain of the barbarian slaves.

Therefore, the camps of the barbarians were next to the camps of the native warriors, and even the camps of the two sides overlapped each other. The native warriors built some tree houses on the top of the trees, while the barbarian slaves temporarily lived in tents under the trees.

……

The camp of the Yero native fighters is located in a large forest area on the left side of the barbarian slave camp.

The terrain of this forest area is even lower, and the accumulated water is even about half a meter deep. The surface of the water is covered with moss and duckweed. After repeated trampling by barbarian slaves, this area has turned into a muddy quagmire.

Indigenous warriors built simple wooden houses on the top of these huge red pine trees. They could climb up and down freely by relying on some soft ladders and rope ladders. They even connected many ropes between trees. Swing back and forth between these ropes.

A group of us followed two indigenous girls to the camp of the indigenous warriors. A group of barbarian slaves lit a bonfire in a higher open space. On the huge bonfire, a whole animal weighing more than [-] kilograms was actually strung together with logs. The giant spider, under the roasting of the charcoal fire, the black spider shell continuously cracked, and drops of fat fell into the fire, bursting out clusters of sparks, and the rich aroma spread throughout the forest.

The barbarian slaves sat together, and there were several huge wooden cages erected next to the tents in the camp. Inside each wooden cage were giant spiders that had been trembling with fear. These giant spiders were strung with black iron long The spear was firmly fixed in the wooden cage.

The half-demonized Justus wrestled with a strong and mighty barbarian slave in front of the bonfire. After being half-demonized, Justus was still not as burly as the barbarian slave in stature, but he was comparable to the barbarian slave in terms of strength. They are not inferior in comparison to humans. The two of them are entangled with each other, with their hands on each other's shoulders, and they both want to throw each other into the quagmire, but it seems that they have been deadlocked for a long time.

The barbarian slaves around were cheering up the burly barbarian in the arena. The barbarian slave also blushed, with bulging veins on his forehead, bared his teeth, and grinned ferociously. Justus fell, but these barbarians didn't know that Justus, as a descendant of the siren, would draw strength from the water continuously as long as there was water.

If the burly and tall barbarian slave had knocked Justus down in one go at the beginning, he might still have some chances of victory, but he chose the latter, wanting to win this wrestling victory with his physical fitness , In this way, he is doomed to lose.

With a loud 'plop', the three-meter-high barbarian slave was thrown out by Justus, and fell directly into the muddy water.

The burly barbarian slave angrily struggled to sit up from the muddy water, clenched his fists and beat the surface of the water vigorously, and shouted to Justus very dissatisfied: "Let's compete again."

The magic pattern on Justus's body gradually dimmed, and his half-demonized body quickly transformed back into an ordinary Grimm Empire man, and he said to the barbarian slave: "I'm a little tired today, if you are not convinced, Just compare with that big guy..."

As he spoke, he pointed his finger at the tauren Luka beside me.

"If you think that big stupid bull is not challenging, you can still compete with Kalancuo!" Justus said with a smile, and strode towards us after speaking.

"Cut~~"

The barbarian slaves hissed at Justus, and then began to share the roasted giant spider. Of course, no one paid attention to Justus's proposal.

……

In fact, the biggest problem facing these Yero native fighters is not how powerful the spider warriors are, nor how cruel the war is, nor how harsh the environment is, but the lack of military supplies and food.

After entering the rainy season, many trees growing berries and lantern fruits in the jungle are soaked in muddy water. Most of the wild fruits are rotten in this season. In previous years, the indigenous people would hunt some small animals in the jungle to eat some stored Dried fruit in the tree house, spend this long rainy season quietly in the wooden house.

However, the situation of the indigenous tribes this year is different from previous years. This year's rainy season not only did not store enough dried fruits, but also accepted a large number of indigenous compatriots who fled from the northern forests. The most deadly thing is that almost all the small animals in the jungle Being hunted down by giant spiders, it is impossible to rely on hunting to make up for the lack of food.

What's more deadly is that under such circumstances, the Nibru tribe spidermen launched an offensive to the green valley forest.

In such a situation of lack of food and clothing, the aboriginal warriors in the green valley forest had no choice but to take up arms and rise up to resist.

Although Elder Singer has established trade relations with some merchants in Tanton City through me, Tanton City itself is in a state of semi-starvation, and it is impossible to produce food at this time. The wheat flour was still bought from me.

These [-] indigenous warriors have always been in this predicament, but their life is a little easier.

Because the barbarian slaves would often feed them with the endless giant spider barbecue, even if this was the case, it would only make these native warriors hungry and full.

Sometimes, the giant spiders hunted by the indigenous warriors were reluctant to eat by themselves, and had to be transported back to the indigenous villages behind.

So the two indigenous girls found the leader of the indigenous warriors in the camp, and gave them a batch of baked wheat cakes that we wanted to eat and were about to go bad. The excitement and joy of the leader of the indigenous warriors was beyond words Words.

The leader of the indigenous warriors couldn't wait to send soldiers to bring back more than 3000 baked wheat cakes, and then quickly distributed the wheat cakes.

For orc warriors, three thousand baked wheat cakes can last them for half a month, but for three thousand aboriginal warriors, it is only a day's ration.

The leader of the indigenous warriors of Yero warmly invited us to the wooden house on the top of the tree, and it seemed that he was very familiar with the two indigenous girls beside me. Nice native girl who kept translating for us.

First some polite and thankful words, then the topic changed.

I asked the leader of the indigenous warriors: "Since the three thousand indigenous warriors are in such a difficult situation, why didn't they apply for some assistance from Kalantso and Justus?"

The indigenous leader was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said: "We always thought that your supplies are as scarce as ours, so that those barbarian warriors can only eat spider meat to satisfy their hunger every day, and only noble orc knights are eligible to eat it." Oatmeal..."

The reason why the indigenous leader said this was because in his eyes, these wheat cakes were more precious and delicious than the mysterious meat of giant spiders.

Kalancuo's eyes widened, as if he had heard extremely absurd remarks, so he argued to the indigenous leader: "We are short of supplies? We have never been short of food, and we have never left soldiers hungry before a war." abdomen……"

These few words were very heart-rending, which made the indigenous leader a little embarrassed.

"So I said that there is a lack of communication between you." I directly interrupted Kalancuo, and then said to the indigenous leader: "If you want me to say, we have the same purpose in the eastern part of the Green Valley Forest, that is to want Drive these Nibru spiders out of Hierro, so we need to be more united in the face of Nibru spiders who are stronger than us."

The indigenous leader kept nodding when he heard what I said, obviously agreeing with what I said.

Then, I said to him: "Since your food is so scarce, it is better for me to provide the daily rations for your tribal fighters during this period."

Hearing what I said, the indigenous leader opened his mouth in surprise, hesitated for a long time and said, "Is this really okay? Will our so many mouths drag down your logistics system?"

I smiled at him and said, "If it's only during the period of fighting with the Nibru Spiderman, then it's not enough. We have made sufficient preparations for this war of planes."

When I asked the native girl to translate this sentence, I must also express my confidence, which is the kind of momentum of "you have food in your hand, and you don't panic in your heart".

Hearing what I said, the indigenous leader said to me gratefully: "I thought this would be a very presumptuous request, and I also wanted to take care of my face, worrying about the embarrassment after being rejected, in fact, my face is not worth a penny at all. Not worth it, thank you for taking the initiative to give us a part of the ration."

After saying this, he took out a small wooden box from the dark compartment of the wooden house, pushed it in front of me, and said sincerely: "I heard that these black crystals are very precious in your country, so please give me a box too." Don't reject us, this is definitely not a transaction, just a gift between friends."

I reached out and opened the wooden box, and sure enough there were more than a dozen black magic crystals inside.

"...Okay! But your gift is too precious to me, I'm afraid you will never imagine how many bags of wheat flour can be exchanged for such a black magic crystal in our place!" I said to him.

The indigenous leader was very happy when he heard me say this: "Since we are friends, don't worry about these things. For me and my soldiers, these baked wheat cakes are the most precious right now!"
