Chapter 21 Eagle City

At this time, many remnants of the Hound Team had returned to the camp of the Iron Hill Mercenary Group.

"You said the Hound was dead?" Tiele's face was gloomy.

"Yes, Captain, I saw the captain shot to death with my own eyes. The arrow entered from the left eye and came out from the back of the head.

It is definitely a strong bow. There are at least twenty elite archers in their team.

Oh, they also have a mage!"

A thin and brown-haired young man said humbly.

Hearing this, Tiele roared: "Damn Sivir! The information he provided is completely wrong!!

Terminate this commission! Go and settle accounts with him!! You must pay more!!!"

......

Simon sent a dozen militiamen to pick up some of the spoils from last night.

There were more than a dozen iron swords and iron-studded leather armors, seven or eight of which were pierced by arrows and were damaged, but they still had some value.

In addition, wallets were found on everyone, mostly copper stars and silver sheep, which was also a small gain.

At this time, Airey proposed to send cavalry to search around and find the camp of the Iron Hill Mercenary Group, but Simon rejected it again.

Now they just need to hold on. Even if he finds it, what can he do? Can he send troops to destroy this mercenary group?

It must be said that Airey is just a fierce general, and his talent in command is very average.

In contrast, Sarit is much more calm. He is introduced as an exiled officer in the background board of the game and has received professional training.

Three days passed in a hurry.

Simon's life was fulfilling. He either learned magic from Winness or swordsmanship and archery from Sarit.

"Lord Simon, Kelair and the others are back!"

On this day, Airey, who was patrolling on the sentry tower, ran to report.

"Ah! Really!?" Winness heard the words and shouted in surprise, then left Simon and ran to the watchtower to see.

Sure enough, a group of armored and armed men came to the west road, and Kelair was in the middle of them, riding a horse surrounded by several cavalrymen.

At this time, Simon also climbed up the watchtower and took a few glances. He found that many of them had blood on their bodies and some people were missing.

Obviously, they had been through a fight.

"Open the camp gate." Simon ordered. He now had more people than Kelley, and he was not afraid at all.

Not long after, Kelley led people into the camp.

"Is it going well?" Simon climbed down the watchtower and asked him face to face.

"A little setback, but fortunately it was done." He smiled, his tone was still relaxed, and his eyes looked at the camp.

Simon nodded and didn't ask any more questions. It seemed that he had received the money.

The people behind the operation were very generous. Two hundred golden eagles were probably not a lot of money for them.

"We have been attacked by the Iron Hill Mercenary Group these days. It should be for me." Simon said softly.

"Huh?" Kelley was distracted. He keenly found that there were too many soldiers in the camp.

"Iron Hill Mercenary Group?" He muttered.

"Their strength is not as good as our spears, so there is no need to be afraid of them.

Sir Simon, your team seems to have expanded again. You should not gather people whose origins are unknown. This is very dangerous."

Kelley frowned slightly.

"There are some things you don't understand, and there is no need to know. They are all my soldiers and I trust them very much.

Okay, you rest for half a day, and then we will set off. I can't wait to go to Eagle City."

Simon smiled slightly.

Kelley's face darkened after hearing this, but he immediately showed a submissive smile: "Okay, Sir Simon.

I am just a kind reminder, you just need to know it in your heart.

After noon, let's set off."

"As you wish." Simon nodded.

Then he went to learn swordsmanship from Sarit.

Soon, it was noon, and the servants lit a fire and set up a pot, cooked more than a dozen sheep, and let everyone have a good meal.

After that, the team abandoned the camp and continued to go to Eagle City along Green Valley Avenue.

After that, the road was relatively peaceful. Except for the occasional encounter with some zombies or dead ghosts, there were no more obstacles.

The interior of the kingdom has been sorted out for hundreds of years. Except for some deep mountains and dense forests, there is no big crisis.

Some wild beasts are not enough to threaten the survival of the human race.

Simon noticed that the local customs are still quite tough. Farmers who go to the fields usually carry a short knife or stand a spear in the field.

After spending mornings and evenings, one day, they finally saw a big city in the distance.

Simon looked far away and couldn't help feeling happy.

This city is indeed a bit interesting. What we saw along the way are basically castles surrounded by high walls.

Those with conditions are built with stone bars, which look like a city. Those with general conditions are just adobe walls, and some are even log walls.

There are only three cities that can be truly regarded as cities, including Eagle City.

There were more pedestrians on the road, and dozens of merchant horse teams could be seen everywhere.

Most people breathed a sigh of relief, and even some veterans of the Spear Mercenary Corps laughed obscenely. They teased each other about something.

"Lord Simon, after you are conferred the title, please come to find me at White Owl Port, more than 70 miles to the east.

The 100-man slave army I was going to give you has almost arrived.

In addition, you can also buy some slaves there to speed up the construction of the territory. After all, it is difficult for free people to be willing to develop in the Courage Territory at the beginning."

Kelley smiled easily.

"I need to learn more about this matter from you. There are so many slaves in White Gull Port?" Simon asked in confusion.

"Of course, you know Middle-earth, right? It's just to the east of the Eagle Kingdom, separated by the Storm Sea, about..."

Kelley told the story immediately, and it was not a secret.

Simon listened carefully, and after less than half an hour, his mind suddenly became clear.

It turned out that this Eagle Kingdom was established by escaped nobles from Middle-earth more than 500 years ago.

At that time, this place was still a wilderness, with all kinds of alien races and strange creatures rampant.

After hundreds of years of overcoming difficulties and actively expanding, the human race has such a large land to live.

The slaves in White Gull Port were all sold from Middle-earth, which is now divided into five countries, and they are constantly fighting each other.

The captives or plundered civilians captured by each other, those who could not be digested and settled were sold to slave traders.

And the slave traders could sell people at double the price by transporting them to the Slore continent.

However, the Storm Sea is only calm for one or two months each year, and basically only one trip back and forth is possible.

The people of Middle-earth and Slor are of the same race and origin, and are more useful as slaves than orcs, so they are very popular.

"Okay, I understand. I will find you after the enthronement. Please help me reserve some serfs first, and also blacksmiths, stonemasons, and carpenters.

You can spend 2,000 golden eagles to buy slaves, you decide." Simon said.

"Well, leave it to me." Kelair responded, and led the people of the Warspear Mercenary Group away, but Winness stayed.

"Let's go, into the city." Simon looked at the Eagle City in the distance and said briskly.
