The Invincible Overlord of Heroes
Chapter 24 An irresistible mission reward
When talking about the artifact, Lacy paused obviously, and his eyes showed longing.
However, such gaze only stayed for a second or two. Lazi quickly recovered his emotions and continued to face Xu Lai:
"I have verified the wolf heads, and they are indeed the ones I need. In this case, you should have completed the task I entrusted you with before.
You have taken back the drawings of the wanderer camp. I will get you my castle heart later. "
Lacy did not go immediately, but said that he would wait a moment. He must have something else to say to Xu.
Xu Lai took a sip of tea. Although Lachi's tea was not particularly good, it was better because of the excellent quality of the tea leaves, so the taste of the tea was also exquisite.
Seeing that Xu Lai was silent, Lazi also sighed and said: "Brother Xu, you have already verified that the wolves that attacked the village are natural monsters.
As far as I know, monsters will not take the initiative to attack others if there is no one to lead them.
Moreover, once they engage in battle with others, they will not be able to retreat unless their morale reaches zero. Their behavior pattern is extremely rigid, and I believe you have seen it, Brother Xu. "
Xu Lai nodded. If the wolves were not very fixed in their behavior, how would he have the chance to dig ditches and pits in front of these wolves?
"However, it is not right to say that they have belonged to a certain force or are led by someone. If a hostile force invades, it is impossible for the temple not to know about it, and it is impossible not to notify Count Aini who rules this grassland.
But the earl, let alone the knight, did not even send a single scout to look at it, which shows that he did not receive any notification.
In order to not only control this group of wild monsters, but also let these wild monsters attack our village, only the beast control skills from the orcs and the beast taming skills from the swamp can do it.
The art of taming animals requires long-term training, and we are hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest swamp area.
Unless there are undiscovered teleporters or dungeons, it is impossible for the group of animal trainers in the swamp to come to the grassland.
Then, there is only one goal that drives this group of wild wolves. "
"Orcs?" Xu Lai blurted out.
Lacy nodded and said: "Yes, anyway, I only know that orcs and animal trainers have ways to control natural creatures. Those wild monsters are also natural creatures, and they can naturally be domesticated and driven.
A civil war broke out in the human race, and it seemed that the orcs next door couldn't help but want a piece of the pie. Unfortunately, they and the animal trainers were mortal enemies. They had beaten each other's brains out a long time ago, and they probably were unable to invade Middle-earth.
They also dare not break out a war with the human race, otherwise under attack from both sides, the orc empire will definitely be destroyed first.
Nowadays, they still maintain a neutral relationship with our human race, so the group of orcs want to drive the beasts of the natural camp to attack us. The purpose is probably to drive us away so that they can occupy the grassland at the foot of the mountain. "
Xu Lai opened his mouth and said: "Is this possible? Such a simple and easy-to-guess conspiracy? And even if they drive the beasts to drive you away, why do they occupy human land.
Lachi Village Chief You just said that this grassland should be ruled by Count Aini. After knowing that his territory was occupied by orcs, would he just give up? "
Lacy smiled bitterly and said: "It would be great if the orcs were as far-sighted as you think. You don't know, these things are strong, but their brains are not very good.
If you can think of using natural creatures to drive us away, you must be a wise man among the orcs.
Besides, as long as they don't directly conflict with us, the temple has no reason to intervene.
As for Count Aini, all his energy now is probably focused on how to defend his castle, and he has no spare energy to fight the orcs.
Since the outbreak of the civil war, it is already May this year, and Count Aini's tax collection team still has not appeared on the grassland, indicating that he is completely unreliable at this time.
Therefore, unless we get actual evidence of the orc invasion, submit it to the temple through Priest Rasha, and ask the temple to send a paladin or archbishop to drive it away. "
Having said this, Lacy looked deeply at Xu Lai again.
Xu Lai smiled bitterly, and sure enough he heard Lazi say: "The orcs may just want to slowly encroach on the grassland, so they only attack us under the mountains.
Moreover, they can drive a pack of wolves today, and a pack of tigers and leopards tomorrow. Blindly passive defense is really not an option.
I just regret that every time the wolves attack, it is at night. They move so quickly that we can only vaguely see their appearance, but there is really no way to tell whether they are monsters.
Otherwise, taking advantage of the early spring event in March, reinforcements may be invited from other towns and villages. "
Lazi's meaning was already obvious, Xu Lai bit his lip and said: "Village Chief Lazi, to be honest, I haven't been in this world for a long time.
It was already very difficult to deal with the wolves, and I was able to win by chance thanks to their stupidity. It was really difficult for me to deal with the orcs. "
Lacy gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I won't let you, Brother Xu, go into battle alone. You just need to help us find the orcs. I will mobilize the strong men in the village to work with you."
Seeing that Xu Lai was still frowning, as if he was unwilling to accept the request, Lacy unleashed his ultimate move again:
"Brother Xu, I know you have a camp-level castle heart, so you should have built the camp at the foot of the mountain.
But even if you add my castle heart, you only have two. To synthesize a village-level castle heart, you need one more. "
Xu Lai's eyes lit up and he asked: "Village Chief Lachi, do you still have one here?"
Lacy smiled bitterly and said: "How is that possible? What's the use of collecting so many castle hearts? I want to collect them at the village level, and try to upgrade Graeme to a town.
But even though I don't have it, as long as we can submit actual evidence of the orc invasion, the temple will definitely reward us.
When the time comes, I am confident that Pastor Rasha will bring you a heart of the castle for you, brother. "
To be honest, Xu Lai was already excited at this point. The camp-level castle was so rubbish that almost nothing useful could be built.
On the other hand, Gram Village has almost everything including wooden buildings, farmland, vegetable fields, wells, fences and even watchtowers.
With such a village as a base, Xu Lai felt that he could be much safer.
And since the orcs are still afraid of the power of the human temple, they probably won't send many people over. Besides, even if they can't defeat it, they can just run away. If they can defeat it, they'll get a mission reward in vain.
At this point, Xu Lai was actually tempted. However, seeing that Xu Lai was still reluctant to speak, Lazi continued to add:
"Although Count Aini's tax collection team didn't come, he will definitely send someone. Moreover, with the outbreak of the civil war, taxes have become heavier every year in the past few years.
Our village really doesn’t have much money left, but we still have a lot of horses in our village. I see that Brother Xu, you seem to be riding just an ordinary horse! "
