Chapter 1335 139. Standard Treatment for Knights
We rested in the middle of the Green Valley Forest for two days, and then continued along the Green Valley Forest to the southern part of the Black Forest.

Along with the [-] constructed knights, in addition to the [-] knights, there were also [-] native warriors and [-] barbarian slave heavy crossbow regiments.

According to the information provided by the dryads in the Black Forest, there is a spiderman gathering place hidden in a hidden valley dozens of kilometers away from the Green Valley dense forest. The details of the camp are unknown.

Our plan is to clear away the potential threats near the Green Valley Forest first, and then go to the southern part of the Black Forest to find other ancient war trees according to the information provided by the trees. Yi Nan gets help from the dryads.

There has just been a heavy rain, and the road in the forest is very difficult, full of death traps everywhere.

The only good thing is that there are two experienced indigenous guides leading the way in front, and we were able to avoid the most dangerous places in the forest.

When the team passed by a swamp and muddy pond, in a puddle full of green duckweeds, they just saw a black arm sticking out of the water, and a sharp thorn protruded from the joint of the black insect beetle. The one caught in the swamp should be a spider warrior.

The spider warrior's entire body was swallowed up by the swamp, save for a jet-black hand sticking out of the water, as if trying to grab something.

It tried to get out of the quagmire, but unfortunately there was no place to rely on, so it got stuck in this seemingly not deep puddle.

Regardless of the stop of an indigenous warrior, I stepped onto the calm water.

'Walking on water'

Under the stunned eyes of the natives, I walked to the arm of the spider warrior, and peeled off the fine floating weeds on the water surface, and a group of finger-long translucent small fish quickly emerged from the spider warrior's body, quickly Swim to the bottom.

Under the clear water surface, the spiderman warrior's body was hidden under the bottomless water surface, its dark eyes became somewhat hollow, and its face looked up, as if struggling to surface, its last look For a moment, his expression was frozen in fear of death and deep despair.

Squatting on the water surface, he took out a skinning knife, reached under the water surface, and cut off the head of the spider warrior who had been dead for an unknown amount of time, holding it in his hand.

Standing up, the dripping water dripped from the wet head, and the water droplets made ripples on the surface of the water.

Even the constructed knights who passed by the edge of the swamp not far away noticed our actions, and they all cast curious eyes.

The magic skill of 'Water Walking' is not common in the Grimm Empire. Many constructed knights in Sloit Province have heard of it but never seen it.

A great knight of the Constructed Knights stood on the edge of the swamp on horseback. He saw me standing alone on the water. When I stood up, I happened to meet his eyes. He set a standard for me from a distance. The knight ceremony of the North Wind Legion.

Saluting to me for no reason, maybe it was because of the story that happened in the Northern Province four years ago in the late spring and early summer.

I threw the spider warrior's head to the Yero native who stood by the puddle and loudly reminded me, then walked out of the swamp step by step, got on my horse and continued walking side by side with Katerina.

The Yero indigenous warrior subconsciously picked up the spider-man's head that had rolled down the roadside. She pressed the spider-man's head on an old tree root, and smashed the skull with a mountain ax in one hand, which smelled like corpses. I opened it, took out the magic core stained with gray-white brain matter, put it in the puddle beside me, washed it casually, and handed it to Puyaka, an indigenous maid who was following me.

Both Puyaka and Koni were wearing a set of moon-white wind snake leather armor. The knee-length leather armor battle skirt revealed a part of their calf with a luster like beeswax, and the boots on their feet were covered with mud. They are all dressed in the most common clothes of imperial girls, but for the native warriors in the team, they will always cast their eyes on the two of them inadvertently. eyes.

There were [-] more indigenous warriors in the marching team this time. I was worried that there would be some problems in communicating with the indigenous leaders. I let Puyaka and Koni stay in the team. They can't ride horses, but they are both natives. The aborigines of Yero, they didn't find it difficult to follow the team on foot.

For the constructed knights of the North Wind Legion, they occasionally set their sights on Katerina, whether it is the almost perfect figure wrapped in the Yalong light leather armor, or the sweet face hidden under the red wavy hair , all fully meet the aesthetic standards of the imperial people, and Katerina is dressed as a warrior, which makes the constructed knight feel very friendly.

Knights in giant costumes seldom set their sights on Morayal, which is not because Morayal is not beautiful.

On the contrary, with a Calmian-style magic robe, sitting on a horse with a wand in hand, Morayal's body reveals an intellectual beauty that cannot be concealed. The identity and status they have, these are the culprits that cut off the eyes of many constructed knights.

Morayal told me in private that she would also like to have a set of the 'Earthfury' magweave outfit that I wear.

It's just that due to the limited environment in the Yerro plane, I can't make a set right away. I promised her that I would start to help her make it after returning to the imperial capital.

The work and rest time of our team is completely executed according to the standard time of the Green Empire.

When camping in the forest, there was a very obvious gap between the various teams. The camps arranged by the Constructed Knights of the North Wind Legion were the most neat, and whenever they were stationed in the forest, the Constructed Knights would just take care of them. their war horses.

As for the subordinates in the knight order, they were busy doing some chores. They would take various supplies from the mules. Some subordinates built some tents for the knights to rest, and some subordinates were responsible for preparing dinner.

The Constructed Knights were all allocated standard marching rations, a piece of wheat cake and a box of luncheon meat, plus a pot full of thick soup made from meat floss. The standard of this meal was better than that of the North Wind Legion.

Every time he was stationed in the camp, Earl Desmond would ride a horse, patrol around the outside of the camp, and personally set up a sentry outside the camp.

After he and a group of his subordinates return to the camp, they will first go to the Wounded Barracks to check how the wounded of the Constructed Knights are recovering, then go to the camps of each knight order to check the horses and the construction of the barracks, and finally inspect the Constructed Knights what they had for dinner.

In order to keep the Constructed Knights with sufficient physical strength in battle, the food for every dinner in the Constructed Knights will be as soon as they are full.

Because the taste of the marching rations I prepared was different from the standard rations of the North Wind Legion, they were quite popular among the constructed knights, which also led to excessive consumption of the marching rations. Already consumed in advance.

Seeing how Earl Desmond hesitated before taking a break, I knew what Earl Desmond was worried about.

That is the logistical supply problem of the Constructed Knights, because he learned from the side that the Orc Constructed Warriors and the Barbarian slaves usually have supplies almost once a month, and these Barbarian slaves and Orc warriors usually eat Giant spider legs used to roasting.

Constructed knights don't like this kind of roasted spider legs. This is what he has been most worried about. I know what he thinks.

He was worried about what the constructed knights would eat after waking up. If the logistics supply group could not catch up in time, the supply would be interrupted. He was most worried that I would let the constructed knights of the North Wind Legion eat roasted spider legs.

I have proved with facts that Earl Desmond's worries are completely unnecessary.

When all the sands of time in the time hourglass placed at the door of the camp commander's tent leaked out, the commander in the camp blew the horn to get up.

Earl Desmond came out of the tent and was about to check the sentries around the barracks when he froze on the spot.

He saw several clerks standing in front of the tent, quickly counting various supplies. A group of barbarian slaves carried large wooden boxes and bulging linen bags into the camp from outside the camp, before the clerks came up. Before reporting, he walked directly to the front of a large wooden box, pulled out his personal sword from his waist, and directly pried off the lid of the wooden box. Inside the large wooden box were neatly placed cans of luncheon meat.

He pursed his lips, and then cut open a linen bag. Baked wheatbread fell out of the bag one by one. He froze there, and then he felt relieved all of a sudden. He let out a long breath, and waved a victory gesture to me who was standing at the door of the tent.

I rarely see Earl Desmond in such an emotional state. It seems that he has been under a lot of pressure in the past few days regarding the supply of supplies. No matter how much you trust me, after all, it is only the first cooperation with me. .

I stood at the gate of the Knights' barracks with a pair of dark circles under my eyes, yawning again and again.

All these supplies were transported from the imperial capital last night. Aliya not only helped prepare these marching rations in the imperial capital, but also specially helped me buy [-] loaves of white bread from several large bakeries in the seventh block. White Bread also had cured beef steaks, a generous portion of smoked fish, onions, cabbage, five barrels of honey-strawberry jam and tart golden applesauce.

This time happened to be the ripening season for plums in Bena province, and she actually helped me buy a large cart of black plums.

By the time the boxes of supplies filled all the space in front of the tent, Earl Desmond had no idea what to say.

These high-quality white bread that can only be cooked in bakeries, and seasonal fruits and vegetables that can only be bought in vegetable markets all appeared in front of him. The supply group has completely subverted Earl Desmond's cognition.

I took Katerina, walked up to Earl Desmond with a smile, and said to him, "This morning I prepared white bread, grilled steak or smoked fish, and cabbage salad... Oh, orc warriors don't like cabbage, As long as those barbarian slaves are in the Hierro plane, there seems to be only one thing in the recipe, and that is-roasted spider legs, Earl Desmond, would you and your knights eat some white bread with us? Steakhouse?"

"Of course...that's great, I mean it would be even better if I could have some butter..." Earl Desmond rubbed his hands vigorously, appearing a bit incoherent.

Then he tried hard to calm himself down, stared at me, and asked me tentatively: "Count Jijia, can I ask you... Did your logistics team just send all these food?"

I kept a mysterious smile on my face and said to him: "Sorry, I can't explain this secret in too much detail, I can only say that this is the privilege of a space magician!"

Earl Desmond probably heard the words 'space magician', and nodded to me knowingly.

In fact, in addition to these things, I also asked the barbarian slaves to bring over two of the largest wooden boxes this time. One of the wooden boxes was filled with the magic rune boards of 'Focus on Fire', and the other wooden box contained It is a whole box of 'Water Gathering' magic rune boards. Not only do I have to solve the problem of drinking clean water for the Knights of the North Wind Legion at one time, but also solve the problem of not being able to start a fire normally due to rain.

At this moment, a clerk ran to Earl Desmond and whispered something in Earl Desmond's ear.

Earl Desmond looked at me in surprise, hesitant to speak.

He followed the clerk to a large wooden box, which was full of boxers and shirts cut from cotton cloth.

……

In the southern area of ​​our Black Forest, the vegetation in the woodland here has also been severely damaged by the Nebulu spiders. Many giant trees that have grown for hundreds of years or even thousands of years, no matter whether they have awakened their primary wisdom and become dryads, they will all be destroyed by the spiders. The soldiers cut it down, and some were injected with poison by those giant spiders. The whole big tree slowly turned yellow and withered, and the yellow leaves fell around the roots, forming a big circle.

When we passed under some withered trees, we could occasionally see a few white silk cocoons hanging from some dead branches.

At this time, there will always be a few indigenous warriors who silently untie these silk cocoons, and then dig a few deep pits under the dead trees, and bury these silk cocoons wrapped in the corpses of their companions in the soil. Peeling off the silk cocoon was probably because he didn't want to see the miserable conditions of the natives inside the silk cocoon.

Sometimes you can see the corpses of some giant spiders in the forest. They are just abandoned in the jungle. A thick layer of green moss grows on the corpses. There are always some insects and ants crawling back and forth on it. It is unknown how many corpses of aborigines and Nebru spider people were buried in the dense forest.

There are also traces of the battles between the indigenous warriors and the Nebulu spiders everywhere.

When passing through some small spider camps, there are always several giant spiders hidden in some spider caves. These giant spiders did not evacuate the green valley forest with the Nebulu spider army. They hid in the spider lair, trying to To avoid our search.

It's just that in terms of searching for prey, whether it's orcs, barbarians, or aboriginals, they all have some unique skills. Every time they pass by some small spider camps, the large troops will not delay their trip because of this, and usually arrange a Search for a party to complete this mission.
