Chapter 85 Decision to Upgrade
Looking at the things in front of him that looked like five small hills, Popot couldn't help but shook his head.

She really couldn't figure out how to deal with this thing. Humans were just big guys in front of her, and these ogres were just small mountains.

"You don't want to use poison, do you?" she asked.

She thought about it and it seemed that this was the only possibility.

If they attack by force, it is not impossible to take it down with the combined forces of Kana and the Earl.

But the casualties are absolutely unacceptable.

She also reminded: "According to records, ogres are very resistant to poison and can even eat some poisonous plants as snacks."

A hungry ogre in the wild will eat anything, so his poison resistance is naturally maxed out.

"Of course not. There is no poison here that can infect an ogre."

As he spoke, Kana pointed in the direction of the ogre.

"Look carefully and see if you find anything."

Everyone looked at it, then shook their heads.

I really can't see anything.

"If we use more people and set traps, wouldn't it be easier to deal with one or two ogres?"

Upon hearing this question, Anita nodded immediately. "If there are only one or two of them, we have a chance of eliminating them with minimal casualties."

She had really done this kind of thing with the church before. Some wild ogres would sometimes wreak havoc on an entire area.

Ordinary soldiers and militiamen could do nothing about them, and often ate up all the food in the fields and the farmers' livestock, and then ran away.

The brave ones will even eat the farmers.

"I've observed this before, and this group of ogres is very interesting. They actually have a fixed residence here.

And they should take turns going out hunting, this is our chance."

Anita has followed the church to fight against ogres, and in the process of tracking and practicing, she will have some understanding of ogres.

Looking towards the ogre camp, if you look carefully, you can indeed find that there are quite a few items piled up around the ogre camp.

And you can clearly see something that looks like a pile of bones.

All this indicates that this camp is the permanent residence of these five ogres.

But this is unreasonable, because ogres have a terrible appetite. Even if this place is good, it is difficult to feed two ogres, let alone five.

There is no fixed residence for them.

Besides, ogres are lazy, you can't expect them to go far enough to hunt.

So they always eat as they go, leaving a mess along the way. This also makes it difficult to catch them unless you are unlucky.

"Are the food resources here abundant? Or are they guarding something?"

Anita could only think of these two possibilities.

"They have a two-headed ogre. There should be a magic node in the cave on the hillside behind them."

The two-headed ogre is the spellcaster among the ogre tribe.

In addition to their desire for food, they also have a desire for magic.

If there is a small tribe of two-headed ogres in the wild, then their permanent residence must be an area close to a magic node.

The nature of an ogre is greed and laziness.

But with the two-headed ogre, there is a guaranteed leader.

The other ogres had no choice but to listen to him and start looking for food in farther places.

Some clever two-headed ogres can even learn farming and breeding.

Thus, a large ogre tribe came into being.

"Let's go, I already have an idea."

Then they began to return along the same route, first quickly heading to the Centaur tribe and resting there for the night.

……

It was almost midnight when they finally arrived at the Centaur tribe.

Facing their arrival, Andrew was a little confused: "Why did you come back so soon?"

"We have found a good place to settle down and want to go back quickly to tell our compatriots the news."

Hearing this, Andrew nodded, indicating that he understood. Anyone would be a little excited if this happened to them.

"Where did you choose? We are quite familiar with this area." Andrew asked. He wanted to know more about it in advance.

Kana pointed and then described the area to him.

"Wait, you're not talking about the area next to Ye Guolin, are you?"

Yeguolin is the orchard on the other side of the river.

Kana nodded.

"No, no, not there." Andrew shook his head frantically.

Although the chief pointed them in a direction, he didn't point in that direction. Wouldn't that be considered as intentionally harming others?

This may lead to misunderstanding.

"There's a group of ogres there. Do you know about ogres? Didn't you see any of them when you were scouting there?

They're not hiding there at all, so it should be easy to spot them."

That area is indeed good, but who doesn’t know that?
The location they originally provided was further south from the area where the ogres were.

There is a group of dryads there, which are much easier to deal with than those five ogres.

Although it is not as good as the ogre territory, it is also a good place for this group of humans.

"Don't worry, we saw them. But we are confident that we can deal with them. That area is indeed very suitable for settlement."

Kana said with a smile, the confidence on his face not seeming fake.

Of course, if you ignore the expressions of the people behind him.

"Are you sure you can handle it?" Andrew looked at him. It seemed that this group of humans was more powerful than they had imagined.

Of course, it is also possible to be more ignorant.

"In that case, let's have a good rest here for the night."

The chief was not in the tribe at this time.

The next day, it was still dark.

The chief then returned to the tribe with a group of people.

After Kana and the others left, he led people to the ruins on the grassland to see if the seal had weakened compared to before.

The answer is yes, the circle of grass around the ruins is obviously withered.

This also made him begin to trust Kana's judgment.

"What happened, Andrew?" asked the chief.

Andrew nodded and told the chief that Kana and his companions had returned last night and the settlement they had chosen.

"They actually chose that place? Are they crazy?"

The chief was very puzzled.

Even if we have the ability to deal with those five ogres, it is not a good option because it will definitely result in casualties.

Not to mention there's a two-headed ogre among them.

If he really had this kind of confidence, then the so-called refugees like Kana would be much stronger than he thought.

Otherwise, there is only one possibility for making such a judgment: the leader's stupidity.

Just as he was thinking this, Kana and the others had already woken up and were ready to go back quickly.

The chief was very decisive and walked over directly: "Are you really planning to settle there?"

Kana nodded.

"In that case, to thank you for helping our tribe, do you want me to send some members of the tribe to assist you?"

"Of course, it's great that the chief is willing to assist us." Kana nodded happily.

This is a good opportunity to build closer ties with the Centaur tribe.

It can also better demonstrate their strength to the Centaur tribe so that the two can coexist peacefully.

Kana also hopes that the Centaur tribe can temporarily help the village overcome some food crises in the early stages.

After chatting for a while.

Kana and the others left.

In the Centaur tribe.

Outside the tent where the two sisters were.

Lelia was holding Abis's hand and circling around the tent.

After all, although Abis was no longer weak and suffering from that kind of pain, she was still blind, and it was not a good thing for her to stay away.

There was a sound of horse hooves.

"Andrew, what are you doing here?"

Lelia never had a good attitude towards the tribe members. But now that Abis was feeling better, her tone wasn't as hostile as before.

"Sister." Abis reminded Lelia.

In a soft voice, he asked, “What’s the matter, Uncle Andrew?”

Andrew nodded. "Kana and his compatriots have chosen a place to settle, but they chose Yegolin."

"Ye Guolin?" Lelia didn't react for a moment.

Abis's face suddenly turned surprised. "Why did you choose that place? Have the ogres there left?"

Only then did Lelia remember what was in that damn place.

"Are they stupid? Or do they not see it?"

She knew the ogres hadn't left yet. Andrew shook his head. "They've got their eyes on that place. It seems Cana is very confident he can take care of those ogres."

"Is this true?" Lelia was a little surprised.

"The chief decided to send some people to assist and build good relations with these future neighbors."

Obviously, the chief believes that Kana and the others are not fools, so it is possible that they really have that confidence.

"So they're asking me if I'm willing to join in?" Lelia asked.

Andrew nodded. This was what the chief meant.

After all, Kana has done a great favor to the Lelia sisters, and Lelia can serve as a bridge.

Faced with such a choice, Lelia nodded without hesitation: "No problem, I will join when the time comes.

Even if you disagree, I will help them if I know about it."

This time, Abis didn't interrupt, but instead held her sister's hand tightly and said, "Be careful."

"Don't worry, I won't rush forward foolishly."

"I'm not stupid enough to think I can fight an ogre head-on."

……

When returning, we quickly returned along the same route.

After running all day, even Anita began to run out of breath, and they were finally about to reach the beach.

At this time, the sky was already dotted with stars.

Anita looked at the people around her. Except for Richard and Kern, everyone else was calm and collected.

There were guards where the woods led to the beach, and news of their return soon spread.

Everyone in the conference room was waiting for him, hoping that Kana would bring good news.

Kana entered the meeting room.

At this time, Richard had also returned.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Kana nodded and said directly, “I have found a place, a perfect place to settle down.

In my opinion, it’s much better than Riverbend.”

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"It shouldn't be easy to occupy such a good place, right?" asked Richard.

"There are five ogres."

"Ogre?" Udo and his companions looked puzzled. They were the natives of Safro. Although they knew something about the outside world, they really didn't know enough about this race.

The Earl frowned and Yara looked surprised.

"Are you crazy?" Yara asked without hesitation.

There are five ogres, not just one or two.

"The ogre you are talking about, isn't it the kind of stupid thing that is four or five meters tall with a big belly?" Richard described it vividly.

Kana nodded.

This time, Richard couldn't help but widen his eyes. He wondered if this judgment was reckless.

Only the Earl frowned and asked, "What do you think? Or do you have any ideas?"

The Earl still had a high degree of trust in Cana, and he knew clearly that Cana was neither a fool nor a reckless person.

Cana nodded. "I can find a way to separate them. I believe two of them won't be a big problem for us."

This made the Earl nod his head.

He was very confident about this. Although their troops were not large in number, it had to be admitted that they were all high-quality elites.

And there are these top fighters.

"If we only take out one or two, that's acceptable."

The Earl had seen ogre mercenaries in the Graystone Fortress before.

Ai Chad had also seen it, and after confirming it, he couldn't help but smile and said: "After all, our strength is different now."

To be honest, both of them now want to try out what level of strength they have reached.

Only after a real fight can one feel the changes that the power given by Kana has brought to them.

Yara held her forehead helplessly. She felt that she didn't understand anything since she came here.

"I hope it goes well." That was all she could say.

Kana talked to them again about the issue of manpower and horses.

This time the count was really confused, as he had never seen a centaur.

"Half human, half horse, what an unimaginable creature," said the count.

The others couldn't help but nod.

Yara obviously knew about this, but was a little surprised: "I didn't expect there would be a tribe of centaurs in the eastern wilderness?"

"That grassland is their territory, they have plenty of sheep and goat milk.

At that time, we can also trade with them and buy the meat we need from them."

Kana then talked to everyone about how to build good relations with the Centaur tribe, and that the two sides could then treat the relationship as allies.

Everyone naturally agreed with this. They could not afford to fight a war with other races.

Having many friends is naturally a good thing. After all, they are unfamiliar with the place and are outsiders.

As for the Centaur territory and grassland, they naturally would not get involved. For them, they did not have the qualifications and ability to do so.

After chatting about this, Kana asked, "What did you gain from this trip?"

At this point, Eichard shook his head and said, "I didn't get anything good. I only collected some food."

No? It seems that it is not the right time yet.

The direction Kana pointed out to them actually had a village in the game.

It is a village of halflings.

Since there is none now, it means that the group of halflings have not migrated here yet.

That's quite a pity.

Banshengren is an expert in plant cultivation and cooking. He also has a sophisticated ability to manipulate the earth.

With their help, the construction of the village will be faster.

But since there is no such thing, there is nothing we can do.

Kana really couldn't remember how this group of halflings came. After all, there were only five or six hundred halflings in that small village, and there were only one or two quest lines.

In the early days, only chefs and people who needed food ingredients would go there.

Kana speculated that it either came from another country below the Kingdom of Cohen, or came from the sea.

After another night's rest, the entire camp was set into motion the next day.

However, not everyone had to move away. After some discussion, they decided to leave some people here and build a fishing village on the coast.

It can help replenish some fish, enrich the food source, and also leave a way out.

After all, thanks to everyone's efforts over the past few days, a camp has been built.

It’s a pity to give up like this.

Therefore, it is difficult to transfer some elderly and disabled people at this time.

Some elderly people, a small number of young people and wounded people were left behind, along with some soldiers.

In total, about 300 people remained in this future fishing village.

The rest of the people all began to migrate to the place decided by Kana.

Fortunately, we had made some preparations in advance, including some simple wooden carts.

However, we can only let the few remaining war horses suffer.

With a large army, the movement speed is not that fast.

It was not until noon of the next day that they saw the grassland.

And it seemed that a group of people had been waiting here for a long time.

Faced with unfamiliar people, many people showed panic.

Fortunately, Kana and the others communicated with the Centaurs, which made the residents feel a little relieved.

This group of people also began to help transport some supplies and guide them to the tribe.

The next night, I was able to rest in the Centaur tribe.

Faced with a large group of humans, the centaurs were curious, and the humans were curious too.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, all soldiers' resting places were some distance away from the tribe's location.

The chief and the earl were communicating.

Popot and the other man found Kana.

"My level has changed."

Hearing this, Kana immediately gathered a few people together.

This is the first time that everyone except Kana has had their levels raised.

And it's not just Popovich, George's level has also improved.

The reconnaissance and carrying heavy loads along the way, plus this time they were carrying more goods, can be said to have been a lot of exercise.

In addition, their physical fitness has not yet reached a bottleneck, so their experience is increasing rapidly.

It was digitized in this way, and reached level three after a few days.

Kana planned to let a few people know about what would happen after the upgrade.
