Unparalleled Beast Soul

Chapter 88 Artisans

Doraitu City, the end is coming. 【】

The goblin warriors and goblin knights who went out to participate in the search were the last force of the Diyan tribe. After they were dealt a devastating blow by the Thunder Beast camp in the forest, the small town on the north bank of Mirror Lake fell into chaos.

There are very few goblin warriors left in the city, and there is no strong leader to stand up to lead them. The escape of the leader Terina became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

So when the Thunder Beast Battalion, which had won a complete victory, launched an attack on Tucheng under the command of Rockhammer, the goblin warriors in the city did not organize any decent resistance at all.

Only those soldiers who stayed behind in the arrow tower tried to intercept with bows and arrows, but the rebels were either killed by Aklan's fireballs or turned into hornets' nests by Thunderbeast archers.

Most of the goblin warriors, like the green goblins, ran around in panic, looking for a safe place to hide.

The mines leading to the mountains in the city became their last choice, and there were too many places to hide in those labyrinthine underground passages.

Therefore, the Thunder Beast warriors rushed into Dole almost without hindrance, and quickly occupied the entire small town, suppressing some sporadic resistance in the city.

When Leon came back, he saw the Thunder Beast battle flag waving in the wind on the top of the city wall of Doraitu at a glance!

"Brother Lei, we have won!"

Yan Hammer yelled loudly, eager to let people in the whole continent know his victory, this Bear Hammer was the first to break into the city.

"It's a shame!" Leon smiled and punched him on the chest: "Don't be careless, there are a lot of small houses here, be careful there are enemies hiding."

"Most of the goblins have hid in the mines, and the rest were basically captured by us, including a group of artisans." Aklan smiled and said, "I think you will be very interested in them."

"Oh, by the way, we also rescued a group of orc slaves!"

There are as many as five or six hundred orc slaves in Doraitu City. Most of them are bears, cows, horses, wolves, tigers, etc., and basically they are all relatively strong young men.

These orcs came from different tribes, and they were captured in the battle of the goblins. They did the hardest and most dangerous work in the Diyan tribe, and the treatment they received was worse than that of the green goblins.

So the orcs that Leon visited were all covered in bruises and filthy. Long-term hunger made them all skinny and emaciated, and many of them suffered from diseases.

But when they realized that they and others had been rescued, many of them shed tears of excitement, and some, regardless of their physical weakness, wanted to find weapons to avenge the goblins.

Leon personally comforted them, and finally told Rock Hammer: "These are our brothers, let Luo Ya work hard to treat them well, and don't give them too much food. "

"Don't worry, I will take good care of them." Rock Hammer nodded.

Looking at these suffering compatriots, he felt uncomfortable, and he hated the goblins even more: "Brother Lei, what about those goblins hiding in the mine? Do you want me to lead people to kill them?"

"Don't worry, let them live a little longer!" Leon smiled, but his eyes were cold: "I'll give them a treat later, just send someone to guard the entrance of the cave first!"

If it weren't for most of the goblins running away, it would be really difficult to control this small city with more than 300 Thunder Beast fighters alone. Artisans that interested him.

What surprised him was that all the craftsmen in this group of more than 50 people were human races!

Under the escort of several heavily armed Thunder Beast warriors, all these human craftsmen were very frightened. They didn't know what their fate would be. Many even knelt on the ground and wept and prayed.

From Aklan's mouth, Leon knew that they were all working in various workshops of the tribe, and the goblins left them all behind when they fled, and were collected by the Thunderbeast warriors.

Compared with goblins, orcs do not have much hostility towards humans.

"You don't have to be afraid, we won't hurt you, is there any leader among you?" Leon asked gently.

As Aklan said, Leon was really interested in this group of craftsmen.

For a long time, the Kuanghammer tribe didn't even have a craftsman, and even the most common iron pot had to be purchased outside, not to mention weapons and other equipment.

Even in the entire Beamon Kingdom, there are not many excellent craftsmen. The Beamon orcs are brave and good at fighting, but they are not good at various crafts. Therefore, the kingdom uses various special minerals to buy excellent craftsmen from the human country every year. Weapons, armor, etc.

In this regard, the human race has an absolute advantage. The weapons, handicrafts, jewelry, daily necessities, etc. produced by many human race craftsmen are sold throughout the continent, even the demon race likes it very much.

In this goblin tribe, there are more than 50 human craftsmen, which is a surprise to Leon.

There are smelting workshops everywhere in Dolaitu City. Refining ore and metal to make weapons has completely become a large-scale industry. The mountainous slag piles beside the lake outside the city are the best proof.

With these craftsmen, the Crazy Hammer tribe has the ability to produce its own weapons and equipment, and Leon no longer needs to take the risk to buy them in human towns, which undoubtedly greatly enhances the strength of the tribe.

Regarding Leon's question, the craftsmen looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to answer, and everyone had a look of fear on their faces.

"Who among you would like to talk to me?" Leon had to ask again.

This time, someone finally stood up.

"My lord, I am their mentor. Do you have any orders?"

What came out was an old man with gray temples. He was tall and dark-skinned, and his wrinkled face bore the deep marks of weathering.

Leon noticed that his hands were extraordinarily thick and covered with calluses.

"What's your name?"

"Rubin, Ruben Shogst, my lord."

"Ruben Shogst..." Leon looked at the other party with great interest. Being able to have a surname means that this old craftsman is likely to be a descendant of a certain nobleman, or come from a certain family.

"You don't need to be afraid. I can guarantee your safety. I'm Leon of the Crazy Hammer Tribe, and I'm also the commander of the Beamon Army who just occupied here." Leon signaled the soldiers on the side to move a chair: "Please sit down." , I have some questions I want to ask you."

Perhaps it was Leon's kind attitude that infected the other party. The old craftsman named Rubin Shogst let go of his anxiety and sat opposite Leon.

Through the conversation, Leon learned that all the craftsmen of the tribe here were purchased from the slave trade team by the Diyan tribe.

After the Diyan tribe occupied Dolaitu City, they found that there were abundant mineral deposits under the mountains near the city. Although they had green-skinned goblins who could mine, they lacked the means to smelt and make weapons.

Therefore, the Diyan tribe and the slave traders of the human race reached an agreement to buy several batches of human craftsmen one after another. In the end, half of the precious metals smelted were sold to the slave traders, and half were dedicated to the elves.

The sources of these craftsmen are more complicated, some are bankrupt civilians, some are prisoners who offended nobles and were sent to prison, and some were directly kidnapped.

Rubin Shogst was originally a descendant of a small nobleman in a certain place. It was only during his father's generation that his family fell into ruin and he became a blacksmith for his livelihood.

His situation is quite special. He was originally hired by someone, but later he found out that he was deceived. However, if he was brought here, he would have no chance to escape. Instead, he stayed in Doraitu City for several years.

Due to Rubin Shogst's superb craftsmanship and being the oldest, he has a high prestige among a group of human craftsmen, and even the goblins are more polite to him.

So it is!Leon understood the ins and outs of the other party and the others.

He thought for a while and said: "Your Excellency Rubin, I sympathize with your experience, but I also hope you can understand that our Kuanghammer tribe really needs excellent craftsmen like you to work for us..."

Seeing that the other party's face was a little helpless, Leon smiled and said: "But you can rest assured that we will never treat you like goblins. As long as you work hard for me, I will give you enough respect and reasonable treatment."

"And I will not keep you in the tribe for a limited time, as long as you help the people in our tribe master the skills they need, then you can leave freely, and I will send you a sum of money!"

"Really?" Rubin couldn't help but widen his eyes, with a look of hope in them.

The artisans were also somewhat disturbed, and everyone yearned for freedom. They had to face those ugly and ferocious goblins all day long, and their lives were very painful. Hearing the promise made by Leon, of course they would feel excited.

"I can make an oath to the great beast god, as long as you let our people master all the skills, I will send you away!" Leon smiled.

It is better to teach people to fish than to give them fish. Of course, Leon understands this truth very well. Only by giving hope can these craftsmen truly contribute to themselves and the Kuanghammer tribe, and earnestly teach their skills.

As long as the people in the tribe mastered the craft, it mattered whether they were kept or not.

"Okay! I promise you!" Rubin immediately stood up and said, "I don't think you will have any objections."

Of course, no one would raise any objections. This kind of treatment couldn't be better for the craftsmen. We can't expect Leon to release them all now, right?

"Master Leon, I know a secret warehouse of the black elf Terina, which contains many things, I will take you to find it now!"
