Durin's Diary

Chapter 484: Being a little stupid won’t hurt you
It turned out that the forest owners were quite wealthy. As soon as the second day of the competition ended, a forest owner came over and said he wanted to buy some equipment.

This made Du Lin sigh - you see, the old and ancient group of the war clan has plenty of money, and they want the best when buying things, while the new group of people in Perak are not much different from starving ghosts.

But then again, this new group in Perak is backed by Durin, and things are much better now. Most of the adults who previously worked for other groups have also returned, and now they are working for Durin - their content is to build new-style farms.

The farm is great. You see, the big woodlands are all black, which is perfect for growing wheat. Even potato roots can be planted on the hillsides, so there will definitely be a good harvest every year.

As for what would affect the harvest, Durin had taken it into consideration - not to mention the druids in the nearby areas, no family of the black dragon dared to claim the bones until now, so Durin had to let the black dragon from Black Dragon Ridge carry them away himself.

Those spirits were also found by Du Lin who dug three feet deep into the ground.

Those who disobeyed others or whose camps leaned towards evil were killed on the spot by Durin, and the remaining spirits were used to make medicine or rare items, highlighting the importance of making full use of them.

Listen to what others say. The camp tends to be neutral. Those who don't want to work for Du Lin can leave. Du Lin will never force you.

Those who are obedient, sensible, tend to be kind and are willing to work for Durin can get more land than before, and Durin also approves their recruitment and training of young druids.

After the arrangements were made, the third day's competition was still unremarkable for Durin. The Pekla cubs continued to fight back in the loser group. This time they met the antelope cubs from the high-hoofed group. The antelope cubs had never seen the Pekla from the Durin family before. After being beaten for five minutes, they were judged to be completely wiped out.

After the thin dogs crushed the wolf cubs of the Rupert family in the first battle yesterday, no one dared to use auxiliary armaments anymore. But they couldn't resist Du Lin's AT tubes, which shot and threw, aimed directly, and had the most terrifying steel ball air explosion.

It’s not that there haven’t been complaints from forest owners, but the casters said that this kind of tube that can be carried by a single soldier is a light weapon.

The proof is that Nicolaïs Kitten can carry two on one hand.

So when the round of 16 was played early this morning, Durin's thin dogs even defeated the young cubs of Tigers - the big tigers rushed to the trenches after losing two-thirds of their members under the flying AT tubes. Durin's thin dogs launched a counterattack and crushed the last thirty or so big tigers in front of the trenches.

The thin dogs fired five volleys of bullets, and on average each big cat was hit by at least twenty ten-millimeter bullets. After being beaten like this, several of them were so angry that they rushed forward, but were eventually paralyzed by the magic of several forest masters.

Titus Sora watched everything play out and finally sighed, "Lord Durin, you are right. War has completed its evolution. The gap between races is like a joke in the face of new firearms."

"Not really. If I were to arm you, the Tygers, with the same weapons, the balance of battle would tilt in your favor." Du Lin smiled at this. "And I didn't actually say that."

"Then what about those small races..." The strong tiger lowered his head curiously.

"They're not wrong. New firearms have narrowed the gap between you and them. The gap still exists, but it's much smaller. Whether it's Nicolas or Tiggs, whether it's Ganai or Luper, they all instinctively fear the damage caused by muskets."

Du Lin said this, looking at the young people crying on the field: "Your forest owner wants to buy a gun manufacturing license from me."

"Indeed, Lord Forester has always wanted to strengthen the armaments. The warriors of Tygus are good at fighting and cannot be easily wasted. Give them good weapons and equipment. Let me give you, Lord Forester, a discount." Considering that the Great Woodland is the middle area between the Eastern Elf Territory and the Great Wilderness, and there are both alien species and green-skinned orcs, Durin felt sorry for them and prepared to give them another 20% discount.

"Then I must thank you very much on behalf of my father," Da Hu sighed. "The forest master is your father, you never told me before," Du Lin asked curiously after hearing Titus say that.

"I'm his fifth child. No one else can inherit this right. As the human race says, a useless title is like an unsigned poster; it's nothing more than waste paper."

Du Lin laughed.

His smile aroused Yala's curiosity. The girl came over with Xia Li in her arms and asked, "Are you happy because you beat us, sir?"

"No, it's because of what your father said that made me laugh." Du Lin said this and looked at the big cat girl: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy about losing to Otini?"

"Of course, those skinny dogs were not worthy of beating us before. Look how excessively they laughed after winning this time." The big cat girl was angry and anxious when she said this. Du Lin looked at Xia Li in her arms and found that the little Nicolas was sticking out his tongue because of his hug.

After carrying Xia Li back, Du Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "What should we do now? The fight is over."

"You'd better not participate next year." The cat girl said with a worried look on her face.

Du Lin thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I heard you signed up for the last week of the single-player fighting competition. How about I make you a set of equipment?"

"I am a proud Tiger Man, and I will not be bribed by a mere set of equipment." The cat girl meowed to refute Durin's bad idea.

"The latest model of demon hunter suit." Du Lin said.

Everyone agrees that the demon hunter set that Durin recently made is good - after all, it can increase the demon hunter's survival rate by nearly 50%, and those weapons even reach and exceed the level of ordinary magic weapons.

"I, I will not be bribed by a bad guy like you." The big cat girl was still stubborn.

"I heard that you practice both physical and magical skills. How about this? I'll make you a set of Autumn Magic Arm Guards, the kind infiltrated with mithril, so that you won't suffer from spell failures." Du Lin continued to increase the offer - after all, in Du Lin's opinion, no martial arts fanatic in the world is interested in a set of equipment, it must be because this set of equipment does not catch his eye.

"This... I won't admit that I'm moved. The Tiger Man will never be bribed by a mere piece of good equipment to forget the humiliating past." The big cat girl continued to be stubborn.

"Add a sword and a war hammer made of metal better than the giant's meteorite ingots." Durin smiled and threw the deadly weight.

"I won't warm your bed." The big cat girl blushed.

Eleven and Daju laughed like crazy.

Du Lin turned his head to look at an old father, who was covering his face and leaving quickly.

No, you don't even recognize your daughter? What's wrong with her being a little dumb? She's still your daughter after all!
