"You seemed to have said just now that you wanted Gulea to come over to the Galloping Horse Plains to look for something?" After dinner, Rant asked Tania curiously.
"Yes, with a strong bloodline, it is impossible to automatically become a legend. It just means that she can be faster and smoother on the road to legend than others," Tania explained to Lant.
"The absorption route that their whole family has taken is something that only a very few ancient families and bloodlines can master." The oldest promotion route in history is called [devour], which is to directly eat the flesh and blood of a higher-level creature alive and fuse the other party's magic power. , although devouring is simple and easy, it can easily cause collapse, causing double irreversible damage to flesh, flesh and consciousness.
So after evolution, some legends have mastered another form of devouring, which is the [absorption] route. They use their own magic power to absorb higher-level or same-level remains, thereby condensing magic power and breaking through the shackles of level.
The absorption route requires constant search for the remains or fossils left by high-level people. This is the biggest reason for Tenia to attract Guleia. In the mountains to the west of the Galloping Horse Plain, it is close to the territory of the orcs and has never been mined. The probability of having the remains of ancient demigods is much higher than inland.
"No wonder," Lant mused,
"That's fine. I have to pack up a magic tower for her when I get back and follow the Magister's requirements!" Tania looked at Lant in front of her and patted him on the shoulder with a wicked smile.
"How's it going, young man? When the blood of the family is really at stake, I have to worry about it, right?"
"We're not like that." Faced with Tenia's teasing, Lant was speechless.
"Tch, it's no use just thinking about people's tails. The most important thing is to give people a reason to come to you." The big goblin flew around Lant. When he returned to the Chamber of Commerce, Tenia was still teasing him. rand.
Lant and Tenia returned to Maned Wolf City the next day, the morning of the 28th. Because they were concerned about the army outside the city, Lant went directly out of the city to the dock, but they did not expect that there were not only their own people on the dock. Boat.
As soon as Peter saw Lant, he came up to him directly.
"Sir, I saw something was wrong with the two merchant ships nearby, so I detained them."
"Oh, we are just stationed here, and we are not the guards of Maned Wolf City. Wouldn't it be better to detain him like this?" Rant didn't like Peter Maned Wolf's banditry, and he wanted to get angry.
"Sir, these ships just arrived in the early morning. The guards of Maned Wolf City haven't noticed them yet. I detained their goods because I thought you could use them." Seeing the lord's expression of embarrassment, Peter hurriedly explain,
"Why don't you go take a look?" Before they even got close, the leader of the merchant fleet disembarked directly and ran to Lant to complain: "Sir, we are all businessmen in our duty. We must pay our dues according to the rules every time we come to the city. Tax, please do not withhold our goods”
"What are you selling?" Lant was a little confused.
"He's an orc slave from the Frostwolf Forest," the leader said very flatteringly.
"They were all captured by the adults in our family in the past two days. We were afraid that they would be sold in the northern territory and they could escape, so we sent them here to be sold." Lant heard that they were half-orcs and subconsciously patted Peter on the shoulder. , said something
"Good job." Immediately after boarding the ship, he saw an open-air hatch on the deck. Looking down, he could see dozens of orcs of various shapes huddled together and squatting in the cabin. Occasionally, some dared to look up. , is also full of panic.
The total number of four such inland river boats must be more than a hundred orcs. All of these orcs are herbivores, and only a few are taller than the human demon embracers, and they are also tied tightly by ropes.
"Are you going to send these slaves to the magic materials store in the city to sell them?" Lant asked casually while walking on the deck.
"Yes, sir, that is what the Maned Wolf Knights agree with." The slave merchant came from the northern territory and did not know Lant, but he only saw more than 200 troops and knew that he was a big noble.
"Are these demon possessors? I think they all have the characteristics of beasts." Lant didn't know much about half-orcs.
"Sir, orcs and half-orcs are very special possessors of demons. According to our academy's point of view, orcs and half-orcs are basically demon possessors, because the organs of their beasts are proof that they are affected by magic. With these organs, they have physical and sensory advantages over our human race without demons." The team leader also smiled slightly when he said this.
"However, this advantage is only compared to those without demons. If according to the standards of human demon possessors, the probability of bloodline breakthrough among half-orcs is about the same as that of barbarians, which is 20%. Among our more than 130 slaves, there are only 24. 25 demon possessors. And after the breakthrough of these herbivore tribes, they cannot meet the standards of our intermediate knights. The large deer tribe and cattle tribe can reach the apprentice level, and the small ones are ordinary demon possessors. With us, From the slave traders' point of view, all the orcs' magic power was used to strengthen their animal-shaped organs instead of strengthening their bodies, so their bodies did not keep up." When professional issues were mentioned, the slave traders seemed to start chatting. While patrolling the warehouse with Lant, he introduced: "Ordinary half-orcs are incomparable to our demon worshipers, but there are some life priests among them who are more proficient in potions and magic plants. If you are interested, I can sell them to you at a cheap price. There are 4 life priest apprentices here, each costing 100 gold coins, and the other demon possessors cost 20 gold coins each. You can give them 4 or 5 gold coins for those without demons. Half-orcs have no demons. They are more suitable for farming, collecting magic potions, etc. than the people of our human race."
"Then it's easy for you, I've bought all these slaves, and your ship will be sent directly to my place," Lant said with a smile.
"Don't bully me because I don't know the price. Your apprentice was auctioned for 70 gold coins at most. If you pack them all, I'll give you 1,000 gold coins."
"Sir, is this not okay?" The team leader was very embarrassed.
"We are entrusted by the Bai Xiao family. We can't explain it when we go back like this. We can only tell our eldest son that you bought and sold it by force!" [A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who has known me for ten years. Change the source app!

"The Bai Xiao family? Isn't this a coincidence? Just tell Luo Benqi that I was busy attacking the cave at the time and didn't catch any of these slaves. Now I saw them and bought them from him." Lant heard that they were Bai Xiao The family’s fleet is no longer in a hurry.
"Are you Viscount Lant?" Although the attack on the Knights led by Luo Benqi in the Frostwolf Forest was still a secret in the northern earldom, his subordinates knew about the situation and did not dare to say anything when they heard that it was Lant.
"Since you are here in person, I won't say anything. If you have any requests, just give them."
