my age of magic

Chapter 1218
Trume Camp

After I determined the specific location of the second ancient war tree with the ancient tree of war, I left Dustwallow Marsh and returned to the Trum camp with the token of the ancient war tree in Dustwallow Marsh.

When I saw Justus, this guy was having a bonfire dinner with the dwarf Bernd in the camp, and the theme of the banquet was roasted spider legs.

Justus returned to the camp with a group of barbarian slaves. More than 200 barbarian slaves in black iron armor returned triumphantly with many trophies on their backs. The trophies on their backs really shocked the camp. of those workers.

This time, Justus' mission is to remove the giant spiders that sneaked in around the territory of Trum. With the help of the dryads in the forest, he almost dug out every hidden giant spider. Some were directly killed on the spot, and some were captured back.

Perhaps it was because the Nebulu spiderman built spider camps in the black forest, making the ancient tree of war and those dryads feel the danger approaching, so these dryads who have nothing to do with the world chose to ally with me and Dig out all the giant spiders hiding in the forest.

In this dark forest, no creature can escape the sight of the dryads.

Most of the barbarian slaves carried the spider legs of some giant spiders on their shoulders. These three-meter-long spider legs with black sharp barbs contained delicious and tender spider meat, which was deeply loved by the barbarian slaves. I like to put the whole spider leg on the bonfire and grill it. When the hard black carapace on the surface of the spider leg is burned and cracked, the aroma will come out of the spider leg. A little bit of salt, that delicious taste is irresistible.

The meat is delicious, which is why barbarian slaves love these delicious spider legs.

Some barbarian slaves walking behind the team were dragging vines with thick arms, and the thick vines were tied with giant spiders whose legs had been cut off. These giant spiders looked like they could tremble and scream. A huge mountain of meat, every four barbarian slaves dragged a giant spider together, and returned to the Trum camp like this.

Although the workers who came to Tanton City were persecuted by the Nebulu spiders, few of them had such a close contact with these giant spiders. When they saw these huge meat mountains that had no resistance When everyone was trembling and trembling in front of everyone, the laborers in the entire Trume camp burst into cheers.

The laborers in Tanton City seemed to feel the victory of the war, and the depressed depression in their hearts was released.

They searched for some sticks and stones from the camp to attack these giant spiders. These giant spiders were tied up in tree vines, and they were powerless to resist. In fear, they spewed out clusters of pure white spiders from the spinnerets of their abdomens. Silk, perhaps this is a kind of survival instinct of giant spiders, once life is threatened, they will automatically spray spider silk to protect themselves.

It was precisely these precious white silks that saved the lives of these giant spiders. These silks reminded Bernd that these living giant spiders needed to be transported back to the silk reeling workshop in Xinliu Valley. Every giant spider means a lot to me. They are all precious treasures, so when these giant spiders were beaten to spit out spider silk, Bernd forbade the laborers in the Trum camp to abuse and beat these giant spider captives.

……

I left Ying Li and Le Die in Tanton City, and taking advantage of the opportunity to see the ancient tree of war, I took Katerina and the tauren warrior Luka back to the Trum Camp, mainly to clear the land of Xinliu Valley. The stones in the warehouse were moved out.

Prior to this, all the strips of granite accumulated in the underground warehouse had been transported out by the barbarian slaves, and now they have become the foundation of the walls of the Trum camp. To continue the construction of the Trum camp, a large number of stones are still needed. Strips of granite stone were used to build the remaining part of the city wall and some important buildings in the town.

Since the underground light rail was laid in the underground warehouse, those heavy-duty mine cars can follow the inertia of gravity and rush directly from the orc village to the underground warehouse along the underground passage, so it is quite convenient to transport these stones. On the square of the underground warehouse As soon as the mountain of stones was emptied, a large amount of stones were transported from the Beastman Village.

Now there are nearly a thousand orcs and half-orcs living in the orc village, and there are hundreds of barbarian slaves in the quarry. It is not a big problem to use these labors to move those strips of stone. When I brought Yingli and Ledie When passing through the underground cave of Xinliu Valley, the underground warehouse was already full of stones.

Five hundred barbarian slaves and more than 100 orc warriors once again became the main labor force to transport these strips of stone through the portal.

Nearly 700 Yerao natives are also helping in the underground warehouse, but these hundreds of kilograms of stones require at least six to eight Yerao native men to lift them together, so their role can only be said to be negligible. .

Therefore, the main labor force is these robust barbarian slaves over three meters tall, but as long as these barbarian slaves are given meat to eat, it doesn't matter even if they carry two stones on their left and right shoulders at the same time.

Bernd stood at the teleportation gate and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, work hard for me. After you empty out the stones in the underground warehouse, I will give you fifty frozen gazelles in the freezer."

The barbarian slave screamed excitedly when he heard that there would be yellow mutton to eat later.

The portal continued to open for a day and a night at the granary of the Trum camp. Of course, this time was calculated according to the time of the imperial capital of the Roland mainland.

On the Yerro plane, if you compare the time on Roland Continent with the time here, the four days and four nights in the imperial capital are almost equal to one day and one night on the Yerro plane.

By the time the lightning power accumulated in the left shoulder blade was exhausted again, the granite rocks piled up on the Trum camp had piled up like a mountain.

I also took this opportunity to return to the Imperial Capital once, set the portal between the Imperial Capital and Xinwillow Valley in the warehouse of Alia Manor, and produced the rune plates and silk reeling workshops in the Xinwillow Valley Magic Seal Workshop All the magic-weave spider silk ingots that came out were moved to Aliya's house.

This time the dwarf Bernd will stay at the Trum camp to manage the granary and the construction of the town. He is worried that there will be spider warriors sneaking into the Trum territory, so he left Bernd a A team of fifty barbarian slaves, considering that this team will be responsible for the patrol and defense of the entire Trum territory, specially took out ten boxes of giant magic crossbow arrows from the magic seal workshop.

In this way, even if a small group of spider warriors enter Trum's territory, they will never return.

When the problem of the shortage of stones at the Trum camp was resolved, I led Kalanzo, Katerina, Tauren warrior Luka, siren descendant Justus and others, as well as 450 barbarian slaves and A hundred orc warriors came outside the city of Tanton.

I stationed these barbarian slaves and orc warriors on the edge of the forest outside Tanton City, and did not bring them into Tanton City.

Justus and Kalancuo manage this group of barbarian slaves and orc warriors on the forest side.

I returned to Tanton City on the third day with Katerina and Luka the tauren.

The three of us in the team had just stepped into the nearly [-]-kilometer-wide grass field outside Tanton City when we were spotted by Deborah, who was flying around Tanton City all day long.

She rushed directly in front of us from a high altitude, spread her wings suddenly, and forcibly stopped her body. The huge inertia made Deborah's wings bear this huge burden, and I could even hear her wings'bones' clicking ’, but Deborah didn’t show any pain, instead she excitedly said to me: “Jijia, is Kalancuo here?”

I pointed to the edge of the black forest behind, and said to her, "She and those orc fighters are waiting in the woods over there."

"Oh, then I'll go see her!" Deborah cheered, spread her wings and rushed into the air, gliding towards the edge of the Black Forest against the air current.

Kalancuo always taught Deborah a lesson, taught her a lot of rules and principles, and sometimes physically punished Deborah, but Deborah was very dependent on Kalancuo, and would take the initiative to go up to her every time. , as if Kalancuo hadn't scolded her harshly for a few days, he would feel uncomfortable all over.

I took Katerina and Luka back to Tanton City, and once again saw the Cassim Knight waiting there at the city gate.

Cassim Knight told me that Earl Rez had rented a manor in the inner city of Tanton City, and now all the constructed knights of the personal guard team have moved to that manor, Ying Li and Le Die Her Royal Highness lives there too.

Maybe it's because the food crisis in Tanton City has been resolved, maybe it's because Tanton City hasn't been infested by Nebru spiders for more than a month, maybe it's because Pereira City and Tanton City are open to navigation again, in short, this Some of the bustling scenes of the past have been more or less restored in the city.

Some small vendors can even be seen on the side of the road, and some shops on the street have also opened quietly. This city used to be a paradise for adventurers. Most of the adventurers in the nearby hundreds of miles will choose Tanton Resupply in the city.

The main reason is that there are many shops here. These shops are varied and buy almost everything, such as magic herbs, magic beast materials, magic ores and so on.

In addition, most of the shops here can repair everything, whether it is ironware or leather goods, they can all be repaired in a decent way.

The last thing is that the grocery store here is very complete, and basically can achieve one-stop shopping.

Katerina and I were walking on the street, and found that even the pedestrians on the street gradually increased. Everyone was holding some valuable items in their hands, probably in exchange for some food, which made me dazed In between, it feels like the city has returned to the kind of prosperity it had a few months ago.

The manor rented by the Earl of Rez is in the most prosperous part of the inner city. Originally, the most powerful and richest nobles in Tanton City lived here, but now those manors are almost deserted.

We followed Cassim Knight into this manor with a luxurious appearance, but the lawn in the courtyard in front of the manor was overgrown with weeds, and some marble columns with fine relief patterns stood in the weeds on both sides of the road.

The climate on the Yero plane is warm and there is plenty of rain. As long as the weeds on the grass are not cleared for a few days, those weeds will grow. Many low ornamental trees in the courtyard have not been pruned for a long time, and they can no longer be seen. The most original shape.

The magic pattern array in the fountain in the front courtyard has long been abandoned, but the pool is filled with rainwater, and there is a layer of green duckweed floating on the water.

Some constructed knights of the personal guards were washing their horses by the pool. These horses were all black-scaled horses, fat and strong, with a layer of gorgeous armor on their bodies. Now those armored horses are neatly placed at the door On the stone steps, the constructed knights wore simple leather clothes and used brushes to scrub the brocade-like black bodies of war horses.

Seeing Kasim and me, these constructed knights greeted Kasim one after another, and gave me a knight salute.

The Earl of Rez and Jason Knight were in the meeting room of the main building of the manor complex. On the wall of the meeting room was a very detailed map of Tanton City. This map not only marked the details of Tanton City It is opposite to the city of Pereira, and it also includes the entire southern part of the Black Forest.

Moreover, some original spider camps are also clearly marked on the map. These spider camps are marked with red pens, and there are some clear notes on the red circles, indicating the current status of these spider camps.

Earl Rez and Knight Jason were discussing in the conference room which route to follow to clear the spider camp on the outskirts of Tanton City. Both of them seemed very happy to see me return safely. I said, "Count Jijia, what have you gained from this trip?"

I stood at the door of the conference room and said frankly to Earl Rez: "I will gather the followers who are scattered in the area around Tanton City, and some combat teams will also gather, and they will follow us to clean up the southern area of ​​the Black Forest. spider camp."

After finishing speaking, I walked to the front of the map by the wall, and drew a big circle with a red pen at a position in the lower right corner of the map that almost reached the edge of the map.

I said to Earl Rez: "I have received the latest news that there are still a large number of Nibru spiders stationed in the southern part of the Black Forest."

Then I found Tanton City on the map, drew a very eye-catching red circle again, connected the two red circles closely with a red line, and drew a big arrow.

"We started from Tanton City. If we rode in a hurry, it would take about ten days to reach the edge of this area." I pointed to the southern area and said to Earl Rez.

At this time, Earl Rez and Knight Jason didn't wrinkle one after another, and they didn't seem so satisfied with my action plan.

Count Rez hesitated for a moment, and said to me: "Count Jijia, will it be risky for us to go deep into the southern part of the Black Forest alone?"

Knight Jason on the side saw me raise my head, follow Earl Rez's gaze, and set my gaze on the map again.

He also interjected next to him and said, "That's right, after all, this hunting operation still needs to ensure the safety of the two princesses, should we choose a more conservative action plan?"

I touched my nose and said to Earl Rez: "I think this plan is already very conservative. Do you two have a more conservative plan?"

Earl Rez stood beside the map, pointed to the places marked in red around Tanton City, and said to me confidently: "As far as we know, in the outer suburbs of Tanton City, um! Here...here ...and this area, where a large number of spider warriors should be stationed, we can choose a camp with a spider warlord from among these spider camps..."
