my age of magic

Chapter 1438

The first thing the elder of the ancient war tree Dirham led the dryad warriors back from the swamp sea was to give me nearly 35 unidentified black magic crystals. Countless black iron weapons were seized.

The value of 35 unidentified black magic crystals can make 35 marquises emerge overnight in the Grimm Empire. The premise is that they must have noble status before, even a small third-class baron. In addition, there must be hard indicators. That is, you must have a city of your own, and a vast territory that matches your identity, no matter whether the land is rich or barren.

"Plane" means endless territory and wealth to the dukes of the Grimm Empire. Almost all the dukes of the empire own plane territories, and these planes are the foundation of the dukes' foothold in the Grimm Empire.It’s just that among the many planes, most of them will be some barren lands. I remember that after I awakened the magic pool and became a magician nobleman, the Grand Duke’s Mansion of Sloit Province awarded me a piece of land in a barren plane, but I have never been there.

There are many barren and barren planes in the Grimm Empire, but there are only a handful of planes that can be called rich, and there are no more than fifty in the entire Grimm Empire. There are also some undeveloped wild planes. The duke needs to invest a certain amount of personal armament in advance. However, the biggest constraint for dukes to open up these wild planes is the high teleportation fee. Mission joint development model, that is, the '[-] Territory Convention'.

Before the banning circle was lifted, the Hierro natives could be regarded as the masters of this black forest. The Duke of Samoyed spent decades building ten cities on the Hierro plane, and Pereira City was the center of many cities. The city not only far exceeds the other nine cities in terms of population and scale, but most importantly, it has a portal to Roland Continent.

It's just that when the Nebulu Spiderman appeared on the Hierro plane, the situation in the Hierro plane almost went from bad to worse. The forest defense line that the Duke of Samoyed had worked hard on for more than ten years on the Hierro plane was destroyed by the Nebulu Spiderman. The warriors of Durva were almost completely defeated. Although the Constructed Knights of the Duke of Samoyed gained an advantage in some battles, they were unable to reverse the overall situation. Four cities were successively occupied by the Nibru spiders.

Today, almost all the Nibru spidermen who caused disasters in the Black Forest were buried in the swamp sea. I didn’t expect that the elder Dirham, the ancient war tree, would give me such a big gift, giving me a huge amount of black magic crystals. The greatest value of the black magic crystal is its own merit points. Such a huge amount of black magic crystal, even in the eyes of a duke of the Grimm Empire, is a considerable amount of wealth.

In the Grimm Empire, record and merit are the only criteria for nobles to be promoted.

Before leaving the mangrove forest, standing on the shoulders of the ancient war tree Elder Dirham, looking at the land where water and trees blend together, Elder Dirham deployed a group of dryads to guard the woodland behind the mangroves along the coast of the swamp sea. Every one kilometer, you will see a 80-meter-high tree spirit warrior. These tree spirit warriors are like beacon towers, looking at each other from a distance, and the mangroves extending into the swamp sea under their feet are like a series of lines. Thick and dense walls.

These dryad warriors have deeply penetrated the developed root system into this soil, and drove the mangroves along the coast to form a dense tree wall again, so as to resist the comeback of the Nibru spider man.

Then Elder Dirham will bring the ancient war trees back to the Thorn Crater, and I will also go back to the town of Trum, so the half of the road ahead happens to be for us to travel together. The child lived safely in a tree house, and Elder Dirham placed the tree house in the canopy above its head.

This is a magical trip. It feels like living in a swaying skyscraper. When you open the window, you can see the endless green sea moving backwards. It makes me feel that the world is really real. It’s incredible. The biggest pack beast I’ve ever ridden is the Thunder Rhinoceros. That kind of existence as huge as a small hill is the largest existence among known pack beasts on land, but compared with the [-]-meter-high ancient war tree, As small as a newborn child.

Along the way, the entire tree house was shaking non-stop along the way, a bit like a large sailing ship under the wind and waves. If we hadn’t experienced the sea voyage in the Vashj plane, I’m afraid we would have been dizzy because of it, Mora Because Ya'er couldn't bear the ups and downs, she ran back to the imperial capital through the portal to enjoy the bright sunshine in the late summer of the imperial capital. She told me that her skin had turned pale in the past two months on the Yero plane.

Justus and Luka the tauren did not come with us. They returned to Simwillow with the barbarian slaves.

Eight hundred barbarian slaves returned to Simwillow Valley with their loot 'a large number of quick-frozen spider legs and giant spiders'. These barbarian slaves will live in Simwillow Valley for a while. Gifts prepared by those barbarian slaves.

Justus decided to bring these barbarian slaves back to the quarry in Xinwillow Valley, also in order to persuade the remaining barbarian slaves in the quarry of Xinwillow Valley to enter into a new magical contract with us and join the barbarian slave crossbow regiment .

Kalanzo's orc brigade suffered the biggest loss in this expedition. Now there are less than a hundred orc warriors in the team. Almost all of these orc warriors were brought out from El City by her. They are the core of my subordinates. It's a pity that there are only so many entrances in the orc village, and young orc warriors still need a series of training to replenish them. I urgently need to expand the orc brigade.

When Elder Dirham, the ancient war tree, passed through the southern region of the Black Forest, he did not return directly to the Thorn Crater. It deliberately detoured through several preserved indigenous tribes. Elder Dirham brought a batch of Food and wheat cakes, of course, I prepared these materials for the Marsh Sea Battle, but I didn’t expect this war to end so quickly. After the Constructed Knights of the North Wind Legion evacuated one after another, they were still stored in the Xinliu Valley Warehouse With a large amount of food, I need to make room for a certain amount of space to store black iron weapons. This food is just given to the indigenous tribes in the southern region, so that they can successfully overcome the difficulty of food shortage.

The materials I support to these indigenous tribes include many other necessities besides food. For these Yero indigenous people, a hatchet or a hand ax are rare and good things, and the other is silk thread and flax Cloth, although they are used to wearing clothes woven from bark and leaves, the aboriginal women are very interested in these rough linen textiles.

The female half-orcs who came out of the underground caves of Xinliu Valley taught some local aborigines to bake wheat cakes with stone slabs and sew the most basic clothes with bone needles, silk threads, linen and animal skins. I have a lot of experience. If they are asked to teach aboriginal women how to sew silk fabrics, I am afraid they will not be good at it.

The female half-orcs I bought from the slave market have completely integrated into the life style of Xinliu Valley. Some female half-orcs have settled down in the Xinliu Valley Beastman Village. The orcs do not reject these female half-orcs, but I I can't flatter the aesthetics of orcs. In the eyes of orc warriors, being strong and plump is the first standard of beauty.

As the orc warriors and barbarian slaves were successively drawn out from Xinliu Valley, these female half-orcs began to replace the orc warriors to maintain the law and order in Xinliu Valley. These female half-orc slaves were captured by slave traders from the mountains outside the border of the Green Empire Those who came back, because one of their parents was an orc, and the other was a mountain resident, so these mixed-races were not protected by the beast god, and there was no saying that they would suffer revenge from the orc strong if they were sold to the slave market, and even many slaves Traders regard 'entering the mountains and forests on the border of the Green Empire to capture half-orc slaves' as a profession.

In the slave market, the reason why male and half orcs are rare is not for nothing. Their number is almost the same as that of female half orcs. It's just that plane wars have broken out frequently in recent years. Noble lords need cannon fodder soldiers and followers, who can endure hardship and have outstanding skills. In the eyes of these lords, male and half orcs with physical strength have become commodities that are eager to buy. Even if the price of male slaves is several times higher than that of female slaves, the supply in the market is still in short supply.

Because these female half-orcs are not good at farming, weaving and cooking, they are called the most useless slaves by slave owners, so female half-orcs are considered slow-moving items in the slave market.But in my eyes, these female half-orcs are still very good. They know the most basic life skills, and in terms of strength and physique, although they are not as outstanding as female orcs, they still have a little advantage compared with the Green Empire .

A group of female half-orcs are working in the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley. Usually, they are mainly responsible for various transportation. They move the rune board base material from the warehouse of the imperial capital to the magic seal workshop of Xinliu Valley, and transport a large number of military supplies. Moving from the warehouse of the imperial capital to the barbarian camp on the Hierro plane, and then transporting part of the spoils from the Hierro plane to Xinliu Valley, these female half-orcs have recently had the opportunity to undertake all these things, and they have done a good job.

They have more ability to think before doing things than the beast girls with rough hands and feet. Although their physique is slightly insufficient, it does not affect their handling of chores in Xinliu Valley.

So I found an opportunity and asked Kalancuo: "Do you think it is possible for them to become a group of well-trained fighters?"

I found a chance, and I took Kalancuo to the ancient war tree. I happened to meet some female half-orcs who were binding black iron weapons in the glade. Said: "No."

"Don't you want your brigade to expand its manpower?" I couldn't help asking Kalancuo.

"Even if I want to, I don't want them..." Kalancuo replied without hesitation.

"Okay!" I sighed silently. It seems that the expansion work of the Orc Brigade has a long way to go.

In the southern part of the Black Forest, most of the aboriginal tribes have suffered varying degrees of destruction by the Nibru spiders. Elder Dirham took me to visit these aboriginal tribes. Obviously, he did not take me to visit for free. Elder Dirham was very pleased to provide some help to these indigenous tribes. Of course, these indigenous tribes obviously did not want to accept my funding for nothing.

Elder Dirham knew that I had a great interest in elementary magic herbs, so he asked the indigenous tribe to take out the magic herbs that had been stored in the past and exchange them with us.

So on the way back, I harvested a large number of primary magic herbs.

Elder Dirham, the ancient war tree, and I parted ways outside the Bridge of Sunfury. The ancient war trees returned to the valley of thorns, and I rode the old horse to the small town of Trum in the north of the Black Forest. Together with Kalantso and Katerina, they rode Gubolai horses along the boulevard and ran on the ground. Deborah and Le Die flew freely in the sky. Our speed is not slow every day.

A huge dragon swimming under the gray clouds can still make the natives a little vigilant.

At this time, the sub-dragon clan on the top of the Zhushan cliff had disappeared, and suddenly there was a sub-dragon flying randomly in the sky, which naturally attracted much attention.

By the time we arrived at the town of Trom, Earl Desmond had been staying in the town of Trom with the Constructed Knights of the North Wind Legion for nearly a week. The Constructed Knights brought a lot of spoils from the battlefield Come back, if these items are to be brought back to the imperial capital, not only a certain customs clearance fee, but also a transfer fee must be paid, and some spoils that are not easy to carry are mainly disposed of directly in the market.

The Constructed Knights once again brought huge business opportunities to this small town, and some businessmen from Tanton City came here one after another for this reason.And I also threw all the last remaining military supplies into the warehouse in the small town of Trum. As for the small town of Trum, the merchants kept the price of the spoils very low. The trophies that the Constructed Knights had worked so hard to capture were severely slaughtered by the purchaser here, and the dwarf Bernd asked someone to buy the spoils of the Constructed Knights of the North Wind Army at the imperial capital price in the small town of Trum. Time has caused the businessmen in the free market in the small town of Trume to complain, scolding the unscrupulous businessman for breaking the market rules, and at the same time, they can't wait to find the unscrupulous businessman and sell the goods they have hoarded. sell out.

Where would the shrewd Bernd want the stockpiles of those merchants? He has been making targeted acquisitions.

After disposing of the loot that could not be taken away, Earl Desmond led the assembled knights of the North Wind Legion to Tanton City, where they would return to Pereira City in a magic airship, and from there The portal returns to Roland Continent, and I have to return to the imperial capital to deal with my spoils.
