my age of magic

Chapter 967 68. Justus
Drilled out from the portal, and did not see Kalancuo in the lounge next to the teleportation altar.

The sealed altar stone room was empty, and even the two orc warriors who were supposed to be guarding the altar were gone.

Katerina and I quickly walked down from the teleportation altar, passed through a thick stone gate, and passed through a corridor before arriving at the cave square outside the altar. Bernd took the goblin slaves and dug it into a large square that could accommodate thousands of people.

A wall lamp made of moonstone powder is inlaid on the top of the cave every ten meters away. There are hundreds of these wall lamps on the top of the cave, making the entire cave square look like a bright starry sky at night. It's just that the faint blue light emitted by these moonstone wall lamps is far brighter than the starlight released by those stars.

There are some warehouses around the square. Facing the altar, the cave on the left stores all kinds of resources transported from Xinliu Valley, mainly some magic red copper, a limited number of magic herbs, some adult ironwood and indigowood. Timber, as well as magic-weave spider silk ingots, materials produced in Xinliu Valley Cave.

In the cave on the right is a large amount of daily necessities, including some daily necessities. Those warehouses are like a huge supermarket, from wheat flour, tree rice, sweet potatoes to dried meat, bacon, and frozen meat. From salt, spices to cotton cloth, twine, iron pots, and various plant seeds, etc., there are many kinds of them.

Bernd also sealed a two-kilometer-long cave in the underground caverns and built a wine cellar, which kept [-] barrels of golden cider.

Today, there are actually two teams confronting each other in this square, and the atmosphere seems a little tense.

On one side are the orc warriors guarding the portal of the altar. They are fully armed, holding standard crossbows in their hands, aiming at more than 200 barbarian slaves on the opposite side.

On the opposite side of the orc warriors, there are more than 200 unarmed barbarians. They sit cross-legged on the cold stone ground, holding a large bowl like a wooden basin in one hand, with an expression of resignation to death, and there are barbarians one after another Came from the depths of the cave, sat silently in the back row, as if holding a protest ceremony.

……

After becoming slaves, these barbarians gradually learned how to restrain their emotions and how to correctly fight for their rights.

After these barbarians became slaves, the orcs had actually controlled the life and death of these barbarians, so any extreme behavior was very irrational, at least for these bloodthirsty orcs, recklessness was useless.

These savages have long been accustomed to this kind of comfortable life as slaves. Apart from digging and carrying stones, they hardly have to do or think about anything. Life has become simple and regular. The only thing is, What made the barbarian slaves unsatisfied was that the supply of meat in Xinliu Valley had always been seriously insufficient.

Although the old orc Zewang led a group of orc girls to raise a large group of yellow sheep on the pasture of Xinliu Valley, unfortunately, for more than 600 barbarian slaves, the base of the yellow sheep is still not large enough. Although the number of gazelle flocks has tripled, these gazelles are only enough for the daily meat consumption of the orc tribe.

However, the life in Xinliu Valley is constantly improving day by day. From the beginning, there is no meat to eat, and now I can occasionally eat some meat.

Up to now, the "Slave Trader" has been catching fish in the sea and hunting all kinds of sea animals. I have transported all the edible meat to the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley, and the uneaten sea animal meat has been divided into pieces There are pieces of meat, some are marinated into bacon, some are baked into dried fish, and some are frozen in cold storage, because a large number of sea fish are supplied to Xinliu Valley, which makes the residents of Xinliu Valley eat meat more frequently. increase, so I kind of don't understand what these savages are up to.

……

From a distance, I saw Kalantso and Bernd standing in front of a strong barbarian, discussing something with him, but it was obvious that the barbarian couldn't listen to him, and protested impassionedly to Kalantso Then, the most actions he did were to show his body muscles, and point to the mountains of light rails, stone bars, sleepers and other materials piled up in the square not far away, talking non-stop with Kalancuo.

Just around the square, there are also a group of Yero indigenous people watching the fun. They have completely adapted to life underground, and their original attire has gradually been abandoned. At least no one is willing to wrap a piece of bark and walk in the cave. .

They prefer the rough texture of linen to cotton.

Now these Yero natives have become a group of leisurely spectators, leaning against the wall in twos and threes.

It seems that now is probably the rest time, and the dwarf Bernd can also restrain his temper very well.If it was during construction, who would dare to delay his construction period, Bernd would not be so easy to talk to, and now he is still standing aside very restrainedly, and handed over the handling of this matter to Kalancuo.

I don't know what happened, but when I walked over, I heard the barbarian slave leader beat his strong chest muscles with his hands, and shouted angrily at Kalancuo: "Why can they eat delicious food?" Fish stew, and we can only eat hard scones, and we want fish stew!"

"Fish stew, fish stew, fish stew..."

At first, it was just one barbarian protesting sitting on the cold stone slab, and then the voices of other savages continued to join in. In the end, almost all the barbarians were sitting on the stone slab and shouting in protest, the sound echoed in the cave, Spread out very far.

Kalancuo jumped onto the top of a pile of light steel rail materials. Behind her appeared the phantom of a Valkyrie, holding a four-meter-long black iron spear in her hand. Black iron spears struck light rails.

'when' 'when' 'when'

The deafening knocking sound suppressed the protests of the barbarians little by little.

As the frequency of the knocking sound gradually increased, the sound became one piece, forcing the protests of the barbarians in the square to gradually decrease, until finally, all the barbarians stopped in anger.

Kalancuo was condescending and asked the barbarian leader in the square: "Your protest is because our orc warriors eat fish far more than you barbarian slaves. Are you dissatisfied?"

The barbarian was more than three meters tall, and he didn't need to look up at Kalantso on the pile of materials. He said forcefully, "We don't accept it! We also want to eat stewed fish!"

Kalantso said to the barbarian leader: "My orc warriors can eat this stewed fish because they have just experienced a battle on the plane. They bought this box of mackerel in exchange for the battle. Why do you enjoy the fruits of such victory?"

The leader of the barbarians looked at Kalancuo and said loudly: "We barbarians can also fight!"

Kalantso cast his eyes on the barbarians in the square, raised the black iron spear in his hand, and asked them, "Who among you wants to eat stewed fish?"

All the barbarians stood up and said loudly to Kalanzo: "We all want to eat!"

Kalancuo smiled coldly, and threw the black iron spear in his hand hard. The black iron spear turned into a black shadow in the air and was directly inserted into the rocky ground. The tip of the spear penetrated two feet into the rock, and the end of the spear was still trembling. There was a buzzing sound.

Standing on the material pile, Kalancuo held the two-handed sword behind his back, and suddenly his momentum rose by three points, and he said loudly to the barbarians in front of him: "Well, don't say I won't give you food!" The opportunity for fish, you barbarians, whoever can beat me is eligible to eat fish!"

These barbarian slaves were all defeated by me, Kalantso, and the tauren Luka, so they became slaves.

Although the savages are reckless, violent, and rebellious, they are very honest, and as long as they believe in something, they will be deeply rooted in their hearts.They had suffered at the hands of Kalancuo, so they stubbornly believed that they could not beat Kalancuo anyway, and the barbarians did not seem to be ashamed of defeat.

This is, the barbarians in the square shouted loudly: "...we can't beat you, but we can also fight."

"Yes, we can fight like orc warriors!" Barbarians immediately echoed loudly in the square.

"Well, since you say so, don't say that I won't give you a chance." Kalancuo sneered, put the double-edged sword in his hand back into the scabbard, and put it on his back again.

Later, she said to the barbarian slave leader: "The next time I fight, I will give you a chance to join the battle. You can send ten barbarians to join the battle. At that time, if you soldiers don't perform well, you won't get My approval, or if it doesn't satisfy me, then you guys will go back to the mine and carry stones honestly, and you will never be able to eat meat in the future!"

The leader of the barbarians was blushed by what Kalantso said, and he said to Kalantso not to be outdone: "I will let you imperial people who dare to look down on barbarians know: what is a real warrior."

With a 'chi' laugh, Kalantso said to the barbarian, "Then I'll wait and see..."

After finishing speaking, she jumped down from the pile of materials, waved to the fully armed orc warriors, and let them disperse, and then saw me standing outside the crowd, and immediately walked towards me and Katerina.

The savages in the square won the right to fight and eat meat, happily stood up from the ground, and gave each other high-fives.

Bernd, who was silent all the time beside him, patted the dust on his hands, shy with a huge beer belly, and said loudly to those, "Okay, since the female leader of Kalantso has promised you, go back to the construction site for me, since If you all come to the warehouse square to sit quietly, then you can't come in vain, and when you leave, you will carry a light steel rail for me, and hurry up for me, don't dawdle."

The dwarf Bernd yelled, and immediately the Yero natives in the surroundings quickly left the warehouse square and ran towards the construction site deep in the cave.For a moment, it was as if a group of ducks had been chased away in the square and rushed into a cave.

Strong-bodied savages also mingled with the crowd, and ran away in a blink of an eye.

……

The chaos in the square ended like this.

Kalantso told me that the middle-aged uncle I was waiting for woke up, but the situation seemed really bad. His condition was up and down, and he seemed to be in very poor health.

So I couldn't wait to let Kalancuo lead the way to see the middle-aged uncle who mentioned the "big sea monster" and "the pirate king's treasure" in his ravings.

Walking outside a stone room, Kalancuo opened the curtain and walked in. Katerina and I also walked into this stone room together.

He was lying on the sheepskin mattress in the corner. His old wrinkled face was as thin as a haggard one. Although his eyes were open, they were dull, and the pupils of the eyes were not focused at all. The fundus of his eyes was bloodshot, his face was pale and tired. , they all sounded like a bellows.

When I approached him, he was also secretly looking at me.

Seeing him struggling a little, the native Yero woman at the side understood that he wanted to sit up, so she put a thick layer of quilt on the side of the wall, helped him up, and sat against the wall.

The middle-aged uncle raised his heavy eyelids, glanced at me, and lowered his head calmly.

It didn't make him feel the need to thank me and say hello to me just because she had saved me.

The Yero native woman stepped aside, he coughed twice, and seemed a little weak

I squatted beside him and cast a 'hydrotherapy technique' on him silently, a halo imprisoned him, and amidst the sound of 'rustling', the magic power of the 'hydrotherapy technique' got into his body.

'Hydrotherapy' fell on him, making his eyes sober a lot.

He asked my first question: "Where am I?"

I replied, ""It's... on my territory, and I rescued you from the Black Magic Priory. You were seriously injured. Why did they arrest you? "

He shook his head slightly and smiled forcedly.

"Do you know the rumors about the sea monster on Du Nai Island?" I asked him again.

He kept shaking his head and refused to say a word.

Seeing that he was full of guard against me, as if he couldn't ask anything, so I had to stop.

After a while, I asked him again: "I don't seem to know your name yet?"

He looked at me silently without saying a word.

"Your physical condition is very bad, and you may die at any time, but I can assure you that you will not abandon your corpse in the wilderness and let those vultures share your body. I will find a beautiful place to bury you Now, if you want an unmarked headstone to be erected in front of the grave, then you don't have to say your name." I said to him.

He took a deep look at me, struggled a bit, and then said to me: "My name is Justus."
