Seeker of Teyvat

The mercenary leader recognized the emblem on the Red Sand warriors. It was the Red Sand flag that had recently swept the desert.

They, who surrendered to the Lord of Red Sand, have wiped out several tribes in the desert recently, including even the famous Tanit.

Therefore, the mercenary leader trembled in his heart, worried that if he angered Chisha's people, they would really be dead.

Although he was prepared for death when he became a member of the Gilded Brigade, but... that was preparation, not a real desire to die.

If he could live, he would naturally choose to live.

Hearing the mercenary leader's shout, Greta curled her lips and used strength in her hands to repel Kavi, but did not continue the attack.

On the one hand, the mercenary leader called out their identities. On the other hand, after colliding with Kawei so many times, Kawei still had no expression on his face. It was obvious that this pretty boy was very strong, at least not as good as him. weak.

Kawei also heard the cry of the mercenary leader. Seeing that Greta stopped attacking, he also stopped, but did not put away his sword, and still looked at Greta warily.

Glancing at the wary Kavi, Greta waved to him: "Haha, we don't know each other without fighting. By the way, who are you, what are you doing in the desert, and what's going on with those people?"

The first sentence, "No fight, no acquaintance," was addressed to Kawei, while the latter question was asked while looking at the mercenary leader.

Faced with Greta's question, the mercenary leader did not dare to neglect, and quickly replied: "Sir Chisha, we are the Gilded Brigade hired by the Teaching Council, and we are responsible for protecting these scholars who come here to inspect ancient buildings."

"You guys protect him?" Greta pointed at Kavi who was holding a big sword, and sneered, "It's okay for him to protect you. With his fighting power, he can easily defeat all of you by himself."

"Hehehehe, but he is a rainforest person, and we are desert people. Why, they can avoid a lot of chores."

The mercenary leader did not refute, but instead laughed. After watching the battle between Kawei and the person in front of him, the mercenary leader also knew that Kawei was a person with strong combat power, not the kind of person with no strength. Ordinary scholar of the Imperial Academy.

But he was right. Without the protection of the gilded brigade composed of these desert people, Kawei and the others would not have been able to get here. It is estimated that they would face a steady stream of attacks as soon as they left Aru Village.

In the desert, the rainforest people without the protection of the Gilded Brigade are the fat sheep that everyone loves to see.

Ahem, of course it’s not ruled out that some fat sheep will fight back.

"As for those who were tied up, they were robbers. They attacked us, but were defeated by the scholars of the Order using a strange weapon."

Strange weapons?

A glimmer of interest flashed in Greta's eyes, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she looked at Kavi, who had walked back to the team of scholars, and expelled:

"Scholars of the Order, although you are not enemies, but... unfortunately I have to tell you that this is the new development area of ​​Red Sand. You can't stay here any longer before getting the permission of the Lord of Red Sand."

Greta didn't want to kill these people;

Having seen the Lord of Red Sand holding the little girl, he already realized that not all people in the rain forest were enemies.

If he kills people indiscriminately, the Lord of Red Sand will be unhappy.

Not only for people in the rainforest, but also for people in the desert. The Lord of Red Sand told them that everyone is a precious resource. If you can't kill them, don't kill them.

Of course, although they are not killed, it is impossible to allow them to continue their investigation here. Everything here belongs to Chisha. No one can inspect this place privately without the consent of the owner of Chisha.

Hearing Greta's words, there was a noise among the scholars.

"He won't let us inspect it, what should we do?"

"No, if we can't continue the inspection, what will happen to our graduation thesis?"

"Damn it, I don't want to repeat the grade anymore!"

"Why are we so unlucky? It's an attack and we can't inspect it. I just want to graduate safely."

……

Listening to the discussions among the new scholars,

Kawei and Ghazali looked at each other and knew what these scholars were sad about. Graduation thesis was always a big mountain that weighed on the scholars.

Not all scholars are as gifted as they are,

Graduation from the Order requires four valid papers, and most scholars cannot submit one for several years.

Especially after the opening of Void, plagiarism checking has become more convenient, and the review of valid papers has become more stringent.

The mercenary leader on the side also heard the scholars' discussion. His eyes were a little anxious. These scholars, please don't refute what Master Chisha said. It's better not to seek death.

Quickly walking to Kawei and Ghazali, the mercenary leader whispered: "Mr. Kawei, Mr. Ghazali, please advise other scholars. Chisha is the largest force in the desert and has angered them. We may really not be able to leave the desert."

As the Gilded Brigade active between the rain forest and the desert, they clearly know the terrible influence of red sand in the desert.

Especially after Tanit and several subordinate tribes of Tanit were liquidated,

Red sand in the desert can almost be equated with death.

Wang Daoyi also knew this, but there was nothing he could do to change it. After all, killing brought prestige and fear, which was unavoidable.

We can only wait until the desert is unified before slowly changing people's views.

After hearing the words of the mercenary leader, Kawei and Ghazali were silent for a while, and looked at the cute new scholar next to them with pitiful eyes.

Finally, Kawei sighed and looked at the mercenary leader: "Do you know where the Lord of Red Sand is? We want to visit and see if we can get the right to inspect."

Hearing this, the mercenary leader showed a forced smile and felt a little speechless. Does this scholar from the Order Academy not know what status means?

"Ha, you are joking. I am just the leader of a small gilded brigade. How can someone like the Lord of Red Sand be accessible to me?"

Kawei shook his head regretfully. He knew he had asked the wrong person.

He could directly meet the great sage in the teaching court, and he had not thought about status and inferiority for a long time.

Just now, I didn't expect the huge status gap between the other party and the Lord of Red Sand.

"Huh? You want to see the great Lord of Red Sand?" Greta was not far away, but his ears were very sharp, and he immediately heard the conversation between Kawei and the mercenary leader.

Kawei's eyes lit up and he looked at Greta: "Yes, since you said that this is the territory of Red Sand, and the inspection requires the consent of the Lord of Red Sand, then we can only go to the Lord of Red Sand."

"Oh... why bother? You may not be able to see him anyway, so why not just go back?" Greta advised.

Kawei frowned, feeling that the big man opposite seemed to be avoiding something.

"No, although the inspection is nothing, it is related to the first papers of six new scholars. As their leader, I cannot give up on them so easily."

Kawei said righteously.

Greta curled her lips. She didn't believe a word of this. However, for some purpose, she still pointed out the direction:

"Well, if you must go, start from here and head southeast towards the Oasis of Plenty. After about six or seven days, you will see the Red Sand Banner's base."

After saying that, he looked at Kawi, took out a seal from his arms and handed it to Kawi: "Take my seal with you, the Chisha warriors along the way will not embarrass you. When you arrive at the tribe, take my seal to find Elder Sid and tell him your purpose. He will give you an answer."

"Looking for the elders? Doesn't it require the consent of the Lord of Red Sand?" Kavi frowned.

Greta rolled her eyes. "What are you thinking? Even Sid and I can't meet the great Lord of Red Sand at will. Are you dreaming?"

"So you just said..."

"Hey, that's all we can say, but it's impossible for the great Lord of Red Sand to make all the decisions. Go find Sid, he will handle it and then report to the Lord of Red Sand."

……

After solemnly collecting Greta's seal, Kavi nodded gratefully to him and returned to the group of scholars.

Soon, the scholars cheered.

After pacifying the scholars, Kavi came to Greta again and said, "Friend, we became friends after fighting. I will remember you. Next time you come to Xumi City, I will treat you to a drink."

Hearing what Kavi said, the mercenary leader next to him turned pale.

If other desert tribes heard what Kavi said, they might think that Kavi was mocking them for not being able to cross the sand barrier.

However, Greta, who had seen Wang Daoyi holding Nashida's hand, also had a strange expression on her face, but she nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, there will be such a day."

Although she didn't know what Wang Daoyi and Nashida were planning, Greta was sure that as the Lord of Red Sand unified the desert, the relationship between the rainforest and the desert would inevitably change, and the previous antagonistic relationship might be eased.

Kavi nodded to Greta in a friendly manner, then pointed to the bound captives and said, "We will leave for the Oasis of Plenty soon. These captives will be in your care."

"Don't worry, we will punish these scums who only do destructive things."

According to Wang Daoyi's will,

Anyone who does not produce anything in the desert and only does destruction will be sent to a reform camp, and will not be released until they understand the importance of production.

As for what these people will do in the transformation camp? Hey, of course they will engage in production activities!

Since not producing anything will only lead to destruction, it is only natural to atone for one's sins by engaging in productive activities.

When Kavi and others were packing their bags and preparing to leave,

The main force of Greta's pioneering team finally arrived here.

Hundreds of pack animals came in a continuous stream, and thousands of Red Sand warriors armed with sharp blades and carrying supplies came to this area.

Standing next to Greta, there was a hint of shock in Kavi's eyes. Although he had been to the desert many times, he had never seen such a large team before.

Behind them, the mercenary leader's eyes were filled with envy. Such a powerful force was worthy of being able to sweep across the desert.

"Maybe... I should also bring people to join them!"

Unconsciously, an idea appeared in the heart of the mercenary leader, and like a seed breaking free from its shackles, it grew uncontrollably.

There was a hint of determination in his eyes: "After completing this mission, I will go to the Chisha tribe. I want to join them!"

Greta, who was standing next to Kavi, felt the change in the breath of the mercenary leader behind her, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

The people of the sand have lost their gods for thousands of years. They grew up in blood and tears, and the habit of strengthening the mind has long been ingrained in their blood.

However, the power of the Sand People is only effective against those who are also the people of the desert.

Wang Daoyi asked these tribal leaders to lead large numbers of people to expand outward, partly for the purpose of making people who saw these teams on the road develop a strong mentality towards Chisha, and then gain more followers.

The adjutant came to Greta and glanced at Kavi: "Chief Greta, who is this?"

"The scholar from the Order will go to the tribe to visit Elder Sid. Don't worry about him." Greta responded, and then her face became serious. "Tell everyone to rest for an hour, and then the scouts will conduct a comprehensive exploration of this area. The warriors will form a team of ten to clear the monsters around. The others will find a shelter and start to establish a pioneering point."

The adjutant nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and went to give instructions to his men.

On the other side, the scholars packed up their things and were ready to set off.

After waving goodbye to Greta, Kavi returned to the expedition team and led them towards the Oasis of Fertile Oasis.

Watching the expedition team leave, Greta smiled. It was another great achievement.

……

Big Red Sand Sea·Fruit Oasis·Red Sand Banner

After five days and five nights of travel, the expedition team arrived at the fertile oasis, and at first sight saw the emerald-like forest and the towering statues.

Many scholars and mercenaries, like other people who came here for the first time, were attracted by the miraculous forest and kept exclaiming.

Only Kavi saw the statue at a glance and recognized the many runes engraved on it.

"Hiss... Such a large statue, with so many runes, how much manpower and resources would it take?"

As a great architect, an architect who wanted to build his own wonders, Kavi drooled at the sight of the statue in front of him.

It would have been great if he had been entrusted with the task of building this statue! Unfortunately, it could not be demolished and rebuilt.

The group continued to move towards the statue and the forest, but were soon stopped by patrolling Red Sand warriors.

"Stop, who are you and what are you doing here?"

Kavi stepped forward and took out the seal that Greta had given him: "I am a scholar from the House of the Decrees. I received instructions from Greta to come here to find Elder Sid."

"Scholars from the Order?" The patrol leader looked at Kavi in ​​surprise, then muttered, "Why are there so many people from the Order coming to the tribe recently? Forget it, let the people above worry about it."

He examined the seal carefully, then took out a notebook, tore off a page from it, and handed it to Kavi along with the seal.

"Here is the pass. You can continue on your way. If there are other patrolmen on the road, you can just show this pass. But when you enter the tribe, someone will check your belongings. If you have anything dangerous, it is best to tell the person who is checking in advance to avoid misunderstandings."

"Okay, thanks a lot, my friend." Kavi nodded in thanks.

The patrolling soldier curled his lips and said, "Whether they are friends or not... it's not certain yet."

After saying that, he left without caring about Kavi's reaction.

The patrol soldier's reaction stunned Kavi. After feeling Greta's generous temperament, Kavi thought that the Chisha Banner was that kind of generous desert tribe. Now he was suddenly confronted by the patrol soldier, which made him a little confused about the Chisha's position for a while.

Shaking his head and without further thought, Kavi led his men forward.

Gradually, more and more people appeared on the road. In addition to the patrolling soldiers, there were also many people dressed out of place, also heading towards the Chisha tribe.

Kavi even saw some large caravans that frequented Aru Village.

Since Wang Daoyi decided to completely unify the desert, the Red Sand Banner has been fighting everywhere. A large amount of spoils have been transported to the fertile oasis, and the tribe's stored supplies have also been consumed in large quantities.

So after discussion, Wang Daoyi decided to open the Fengrao Oasis to the outside world and allow qualified caravans to come to the Fengrao Oasis and Chisha Banner to trade.

And what caravans are eligible?
