Lord of War

The   Ancient Ruin Area is the last resting place for the slave hunters before they leave the Gorge Rift, and it is also the first resting place after entering the Gorge Rift.

  In the morning light, a team left this last resting place mightily.

  Shaun, in the end, he couldn’t wait for the dozen or so missing soldiers.

  Five bear men, five northern barbarians, and two slave trappers brought out by Andre.

  Even if the gathering of evil thoughts is resolved, the ancient ruins area is obviously not a safe place. After all, no one knows how many ghouls and ghost fires are hidden in this area. If you want to clean up here, you need more than just time, but also a lot of patience.

  And Sean currently has no thoughts and time to spend all on this aspect.

  Out of the strait rift, it can be regarded as a real entry into the wild land.

This vast land is actually not really wild in the strict sense. Although there are very few and really not suitable for planting here, but because of the introduction of foreign merchants, there is now a set of farming methods that are entirely their own on this land. The provision of classes can be self-sufficient. And the closer to the center of this area, the larger the area of ​​the oasis.

  Those truly powerful tribes, almost every one has an oasis that can be called a vast oasis. With such an area, let alone grazing and breeding, even the conditions that are not suitable for planting can be improved. Therefore, any large tribe can be regarded as a kingdom, even the surrounding countries near the wild land regard this area as They would not easily approach these places in their own slave farms.

  In recent years, because the western orcs and elves of the mainland have become united and cautious, and the north is not a particularly suitable place to capture slaves, the slave hunting team has to start to develop towards the wild land. It is precisely because of this that almost none of the most outlying tribes have survived in the Barren Lands in recent years. In order to survive, they had to choose to merge with other tribes, or simply belong to those more powerful tribes.

  In fact, every tribe, regardless of its size, will have its own ancestral history, so whether it is merged or submitted to other tribes, it is a very shameful thing for these tribes. Therefore, there are totally uncoordinated contradictions and disputes between the tribes and slave trappers in the Wildlands. Naturally, there are reasons for them, and they even have no good feelings for those merchants who use this area to hurry.

"My lord, now because of the wanton capture of slaves by the slave capture teams, it is impossible to find any tribe population if you don't go more than a thousand miles." Andre said to Xiao En, "the small tribes in the periphery, early In the past few years, almost all of the slave captures have been wiped out, and only a few people have survived by chance. They can no longer be called tribes. For this reason, they have to retreat deeper and join other tribes."

  "Don't the tribe have a strong xenophobia?" Sean asked modestly.

  Even though Sean knows the future development trend and understands and understands many secrets, it does not mean that he is really omnipotent. The cognition of the world view and race view of this world rests entirely on the background introduction of the game, and he hasn’t read it patiently yet, so he has a general understanding of the races in this world and the main reasons for their conflicts and contradictions. That's it.

  The word "tribe" was originally used to specifically refer to the orcs and elves.

  Only later, was it applied to these inhabitants of the Wildlands. However, there is no objection to this point. After all, the inhabitants of the Wild Land here are not only the orcs, but also the elves, and even people of other races can see them, and they are not generally fierce-even considered by humans. It is the most trash goblin, and it must not be underestimated in the wild land.

  The tribes, especially the tribes of the orcs, have a very strong xenophobia.

  The most obvious feature of this kind of xenophobia is that it expresses hostility to the people of other tribes. So under normal circumstances, the survivors of other tribes, even if they did not kill each other as food, even if they were very kind, how could it be possible to accept them to join their own tribe?

"Lord Lord, the tribes with obvious xenophobia are the orcs in the West. This rule does not apply here in the Wildlands." Andre was a little frightened about Sean's humble performance. This is exactly what he had in mind. There is a big difference between those lords, "Here in the wild land, wars are very frequent, so the population declines very fast, especially those small tribes. Even if they can win the attack of the slave hunters after a regular battle, usually Few people can survive, so in order to survive, it is impossible for any xenophobia to appear here."

Xiao En nodded, expressing that he had understood, and then said with a serious face: "You have rich survival experience in the wild land, so we all follow your instructions on how to act. You don't need to think that I am a lord. What dare you say, you are the commander here, and I, including Cecilia and Dini, will follow your orders."

   "Yes!" Andre was not hypocritical, he simply nodded and agreed, "Then our first stop is to go to the Zhufeng Tribe."

After hearing Andre’s words, the werewolves and gray elves in the slave hunting team immediately dispersed. They will serve as scouts for the entire army when it is marching, responsible for guarding the surrounding environment and movements, and ensuring that they will not be touched by the enemy. I don't know when I get to the side.

  In the wilderness, you need to be careful not only with other tribes who may hunt outside, but also other colleagues.

  But Andre knew that he was lucky to keep up with a good lord who seemed pretty good at the moment. Not counting the veterans who have been with me for several years, just the remaining thirty-five northern barbarians and thirty-five bears are definitely an extremely fierce combat power-if outsiders just simply think this Unit strength is nothing, if you want to use cavalry charge to fight, then the opponent will soon discover that they are not encountering butter, but a reef that has been hit by the waves countless times; and if they want to use long-range means If you win, this is even more wishful thinking. Tower shields and half-length shields are enough to withstand any arrows except enchanted armor-piercing arrows, and the counterattacks of these northern barbarians are by no means vegetarian. There are absolutely hundreds of shots within 300 meters. What's more, almost every northern barbarian on this trip is equipped with enchanted armor-piercing arrows.

  This is an elite unit that can no longer be elite.

  Andre observed this team silently. He really couldn't figure out why the Northland Barbarians, a race that has always been underestimated, could be trained to such an elite level? In his memory, the Northland Barbarians are the least valuable slaves. If it weren’t for those who could not be compelled or those who just debuted as slaves and wanted to find a training target, no one would capture the Northland Barbarians at all, because many times The barbarians in the North can't sell it, and the daily food expenditure is really not low, which is easy to lose money.

  Moreover, most of the nobles who buy the northern barbarians will not buy so many in one go. They just buy a small group of people to take care of their own manor planting problems or territories planting problems. But when he stayed in the barracks some time ago, he had seen too many northern barbarians. These northern barbarians weren’t used for farming, but a group of real soldiers. They had almost the same as the army that Andre had seen before. The unanimous breath made him feel extremely unbelievable.

He knows very well that if they fight alone, each of their slave trappers can easily win each other, but if it is a confrontation of ten people, then they will be very strenuous, and if the number of people is right If they wait, they won't lose, but it's probably difficult to win. And this is because there are several high-level silver masters in his team. You must know that this army called Iron Wings is just a group of lower-level bronze-strength northern barbarians, and a few have the upper-level bronze strength.

   But this is such an army, but it is the first army well-deserved under the lord of Sean, and it can even be said to be the main force of the entire territory.

  It is said that there is the banner of this army among the army that Darbion Kingdom least wants to encounter today.

  Now, the thirty-five northern barbarians who came with them are said to be the most elite soldiers in the army of Iron Wings, which made Andre feel a little safer in his heart. Of course, he was actually quite disapproving at first, but with the raid that broke out in the Gorge Rift and his performance along the way, he had to believe that these northern barbarians had nothing to do with real elite soldiers. Difference.

  Of course, Andre didn’t know, but Sean was still a bit dissatisfied.

  Because the steel wings are still only a level three army at present, although this is considered a regular army in the military system, it is only to the extent that it can be "a battle". But what Sean really wants is a four-level "elite" that can generate deterrence, or even a level five "ace"...

  It’s a pity that at present, Panda leads the only fourth-level army, but it is the army of the Cecilia Guards that does not obey the command. This gives Sean a headache.

  The first goal of the team’s trip is to Zell Wind Tribe.

Although    is a tribe, in fact it is no longer a tribe in the wilderness. This tribe was destroyed a few years ago. Later, when the slave trappers saw that the tribe was in a good location, they established a resting place similar to the tribe. Later slave trappers came in more and more. As more, this tribe gradually became an important fulcrum for the outer trade routes of the Wildlands. Later, as slave trappers were wounded and unable to leave the Wildlands and chose to settle on the fulcrums of the trade routes in the Wildlands, the Zhanfeng tribe was considered to be an important fulcrum. Really developed.

  Nowadays, it is said that inhabitants of the savage land tribes occasionally come to these trading fulcrums to purchase some daily necessities.

  The goal of Shaun’s coming to the Wildlands is not to capture slaves. Therefore, it is natural to witness a trade fulcrum like this in person to see how it works and what level the price of goods is at.
