Knight of the Light

The overturned chair was re-aligned, the tilted glass was re-aligned, and Bruno was seated again. The leaders of a dozen hilly dwarves stared, staring at them, and wanted to find a way out for their tribes.

A large wine barrel was placed on the table of the talks. Others were unwilling to drink, but the grey dwarves drank one after another. He poured his glass of wine and sat down steadily and asked with a funny smile: "How is it? Think about it?"

There are dozens of dwarf tribes in the north, thousands of people large, hundreds of small people, living in barren mountains in bad conditions. Due to the limitation of natural conditions, their survival options are not many.

In addition to mining and ironing at home and selling metal products, hilly dwarves often sell their armed forces to make a living. Because of their strong physique, extraordinary fighting skills, and honesty, many lords are willing to hire them as guards.

But the hilly dwarves themselves are not very willing to be mercenaries, one is to get less money, and the other is that the human lord is too cunning, and often changes their ways to pit them.

The dwarf leaders looked at each other, knowing that they couldn't beat Hanfengcheng in ironing, so they could only be mercenaries.

Victor Hugo’s current reputation is good. Although he is doing business and dumping and destroying the market, the price is clearly marked, Tongsuo is not deceived, and his reputation is much stronger than other human noble lords.

But when the hilly dwarves offered to accept the cold wind city's hired soldiers, Bruno shook his head and sighed: "I urge you to join the cold wind city, and the clan will relocate to become the leader of Lord Hugo."

As soon as this was said, the room immediately clashed. Several dwarf leaders stood up and scolded. Even more dwarves wanted to grab the axe, and smashed the gray dwarf in distress.

Some dwarves jumped on the table and pointed at Bruno’s nose and scolded ‘dwarf’. He had countless human lords who had smoked and virtuous, sleazy and nasty things.

Facing this struggling posture, Bruno didn't care about making a few chuckles. He still had the mood to drink most of the ale in the glass, and slowly said after a satisfied hiccup:

"Do you know Todd, the orc next to Lord Hugo? He went to the Black Forest to call his fellow Orcs."

The orcs are less productive than the dwarves, swaying around in the forest all day long, causing trouble. But their days are bitter than the dwarves. Simple barbarism does not lead to a good life. Instead, it makes enemies everywhere.

Bruno continued: "Lord Hugo has an orc guard of twenty or thirty men next to him, but he is not satisfied with the guard. The orc battles are based on brute force, and their heads are hot when they fight. In the face of large-scale battles, they It is easy to be counter-killed.

But the orcs have a great advantage in the forest. Lord Lord wants to develop the Black Forest, preparing to hire a group of orcs as forest rangers to protect his industry in the forest from monsters such as jackals and goblins.

The orcs will be able to live in comfortable houses with sturdy weapons and armor, as well as wage income. They do not need to wander around, they can feed themselves in the normal way.

According to the words of the lord, it is to give the orcs an opportunity to move towards a civilized society. Let them no longer confront the enemy with humanity, reconcile the two sides, and jointly develop forest resources. "

The hilly dwarfs looked at each other, not knowing exactly what Bruno wanted to say?

"Recently, a kobold tribe sent representatives to Hanfengcheng to ask to see your lord."

Bruno said that the orcs were okay, but mentioned the kobolds and was interrupted at the beginning.

There was a hilly dwarf who laughed and said, "The orcs can still fight, what can the kobolds do? Those guys who can only bark can't even fight goblins. I can do one hundred of them."

"I can hit two hundred."

"I can hit three hundred."

"Aside, I can hit a thousand."

Speaking of kobolds, the atmosphere at the table was suddenly cheerful. The dwarves despised the kobolds for their cowardly combat power, and burst numbers to show their strength.

Bruno said quietly, "Kobolds are perseverant, silent, and without too much ambition. They are good at digging and mining, constructing underground works, and can even tolerate pollution, and live in the sewers to clean up the garbage. Can you do it?"

The scene was momentarily quiet.

Among the intelligent creatures of Faerun mainland, kobolds are the weakest, and none of them. Even goblins can bully them.

It is also because of its weakness that the kobolds have to live in dark corners and endure all kinds of bullying. This adds to the misunderstandings of other races and confuses them with goblins.

In fact, the kobolds are lawful camps, completely different from the goblin chaos camp.

"Not long ago, a kobold messenger came to Coldwind City. The guy was so scared at that time that his words were shaking, and he was ready to be killed by the guard at the door before seeing the lord.

But Lord Hugo saw him and listened to his request. This kobold probably wouldn't be able to live anywhere else. I heard that Hugo Lord Lord's kindness, hoping to move to Hanfeng City, and willing to help build a sewer in the city.

The kobolds said that they don't need any compensation, as long as they can live safely and underground. They can infest at night and make a living from the garbage discarded by human beings, and they will never invade the human world.

But after confirming that the kobolds have strong underground engineering capabilities, Hugo Lord immediately accepted the tribe and said that they would give them formal work and equal power.

The kobolds don't need to come and go at night, but they are more generous.

You didn’t see the unbelievable appearance of the Kobold messenger at that time, and his subsequent oath of allegiance to allegiance.

Last month, the weak kobold tribe moved into the cold wind city. That is a team of only a hundred people, including half of the old and weak. They are really weak, thin and small.

But they got everything the lord had promised, including tools, food, cloth, and the official status and exclusive living area of ​​the city's sewer management office.

At first, humans in the city were not comfortable living with kobolds. But as the sewers were cleared and cleared, everyone quickly accepted the existence of kobolds. No one felt anything bad.

Cleaning the sewers is hard work, and only the poorest people work, and the income is extremely low. Lord Lord, this type of work is listed as a special high-risk occupation necessary for the city, and it is given high remuneration.

Kobolds are also very satisfied with a stable home and an unimaginable and beautiful job. They will come to a group of ethnic groups next month, not only to expand the city's sewers, but also to help the lord to mine and expand the city. "

The hill dwarfs looked at each other again, and someone shouted angrily: "Bruno, what the **** do you want to say?"

The grey dwarves spread their hands, "Why didn't you understand? Your Lord Lord respects every worker, and he can give you dignity and status that you don't have anywhere else.

As long as you are willing to become law-abiding citizens, he can give you unimaginable rewards. Even the kobolds can receive the gold coins as a salary, instead of leftovers mixed with garbage.

I advise you to seize the opportunity. This is a rare opportunity. A great lord is worth following. "
