Chapter 242 Reward
Tang Zhao stayed in Stone Helmet City for a few days, originally planning to leave just like that, but the news from the border made him change his mind.

Several bands of orcs are approaching Stonehelm, and are now stationed in the valley near the city.

In terms of scale, this is not a large-scale attack, it can only be regarded as a test.But if there is no fierce counterattack, it is difficult to say what will happen next.

Anyway, there was nothing urgent to deal with on the return journey, so Tang Zhao took cleaning up the nearby orcs as a gift to the dwarves, and went to do it himself.

Needless to say about the process, the hasty and unprepared orcs never expected that there would be a giant creature coming out of the way, and they marched in a long snake formation without fear. Needless to say, the result was that the orcs It can almost be said to be a rout, retreating from the vicinity of the mountain in embarrassment, and probably has no thought of attacking again in a short time.

The surrounding environment is relatively cold, and it is not so livable in the eyes of orcs. This is the main reason why dwarves can always exist. There are not many orcs living nearby, and their strength is not strong. Most of them are losers who have been eliminated. ethnic groups, they can suppress.

Tang Zhao rarely fought against the orcs before, but after several times in a row, he also summed up a little bit of experience.

Compared with goblins, orcs are stronger, and their average strength is even stronger than most ordinary hobgoblin clan warriors. They are capable of individual combat, but correspondingly, their discipline is also very poor. It is not impossible to be well-trained, but It is much more difficult than training ordinary goblins.

From combat mode to combat style, they clearly reflect the characteristics of "reckless"—combat decisions are often made without much thought, simple and rough, but morale is very good, most of the time the orcs will not consider surrendering , but will choose to fight to the end, even if they are broken up, the subjective initiative is very strong.It is difficult to completely annihilate on the battlefield.

It is said that the strong in the orc society is king, and a strong enough orc leader can make his subordinates obey and obey orders. There are indeed examples in history of powerful orc leaders unifying a large number of tribes.

The living location of the orcs further north is not suitable for them to live in, so the spearhead of external expansion will naturally point to Oran. Every time this happens, Oran will spend a lot of manpower and material resources to fight against them. Generally speaking, they win each other. burden.

It is a relatively difficult race to deal with, especially after the hobgoblin's metallurgical technology is strengthened, the opponent is definitely not as good as the dwarves and elves in terms of quality, but there is no problem in quantity, and these are also useful on the battlefield Weapons and equipment rather than magical weapons.

After roughly understanding the surrounding situation, Tang Zhao returned to the fleet with the envoy of Stone Helm City and the necessary supplies, but he only stayed in the fleet for a few hours, and then left with his own fleet , leaving the large force to continue to stand by.

After the dwarf's business is done, it's Tina's business to do the rest.

…………

"What I want to do is not too complicated. I participated in a gathering within the ethnic group before, and I exchanged the location of a ruin with my friends. He was in a hurry when he left, and he was not interested in the things of the mage, so I put the The news was given to me."

Tina's expression looked a little pained, obviously getting the coordinates from the other party was not an easy task, and it cost a lot of money.

[It’s a bit silly to talk about these, but I still have to ask, what can I get from it. 】

The ruins mentioned by Tina probably refer to the mage tower, which is the building or group of buildings extending from the place where the mage lives and lives. Depending on the strength and habits of the owner, the degree of danger is also very different. Na thought of asking people to help, it must not be something small.

"You will share [-]% of the treasure. We will discuss the technology in detail. As long as it is not too taboo or special, you can use it. I am not a blue dragon, and I don't care much about things that I can't use."

The most tangled thing must be the treasure part. For Tina, asking this price is already very extreme.

[No problem, I can accept it. 】

Tang Zhao also understood this very well, and agreed directly.Anyway, he is not short of money, as long as he has enough, it is more important for the production and development of useful technologies.Even if there is no technology that can be directly applied in the Mage Tower, it can be of great value in exchange with other forces. After all, he and the Dragon Clan have different standards for measuring value, and usefulness is the most important thing.

Tina showed a satisfied smile, matching her good looks, she looked very friendly.

Taking out a map from her pocket, she pointed to a location on it.

"We still need to continue going north to find a town that has been abandoned for a long time, not far away, more than 100 kilometers away."

[It will take some time, it would be nice to arrive within two days. 】

In ancient times, it was not impossible to march more than 100 kilometers for ten days and half a month, and it was not close at all, but it might not be too far for Tina, after all, she has wings and can fly.

"I know this very well, so let your people row over slowly, I will drive you there, and the two parties will meet at that place."

After all, a pair of fleshy wings quickly stretched out behind her. The wingspan looks to be about four meters, and there are many mysterious and mysterious lines.Obviously, this is the masterpiece of some mages, and it looks like the type that the residents of the forest will use. Tang Zhao is not sure about the specifics.

I thought I could have a close look at the appearance of the dragon, but it seems that Tina doesn't like to reveal her identity in front of everyone.

Seeing this, Tang Zhao didn't talk too much nonsense, and after giving a few instructions to his subordinates, he shrank and climbed onto Tina's shoulders. Tina then flapped her wings and rose from the ground, flying towards her destination.

It can be regarded as one of the benefits of not maintaining a human form, no one treats him as the opposite sex at this time.

……

In fact, the mage tower is not only a tower, and it may not even be a tower. The "tower" represents the mysterious and refined elements of mages. The town is now completely abandoned.

In some civilizations that respect magic, a large-scale city will even be formed near the residence of some powerful mages. It is normal that there is only a town attached to it. It just proves the ability of this mage from the side. After all, a powerful person to receive this degree of admiration.

After a short flight of less than an hour, they arrived at their destination. Tina didn't rush in to search, but built a simple supply station under the castle.

"Next, let's talk about the specific plan. After all, this place has had some uninvited guests because it... has been in disrepair for a long time."

[Say what? 】

"Undead creatures or something..." Tina's tone weakened a little while speaking, obviously a little guilty.
