"Shitou, you have to look after my home and don't let anyone take it away! Anyway, our camp now has enough food, and we can wait until I come back from the Elf Kingdom. Don't go out hunting, just stay at the camp with peace of mind. Just stay here."
"By the way, you should also choose a female among our tribe or slaves so that you can have cubs to play with. Don't forget to get up in the morning and take those little cubs for me to exercise more. Don't lose my supervision. Let me eat and sleep while I eat!!”
"Did you hear me!!"
Before leaving, Allen warned Shi Shi earnestly, but the person he was talking to was scratching the sparse hair on his forehead with his big hands, and laughed out loud. Allen was so angry when he saw it, he was so angry. I want to give this guy who doesn't make progress a hard time. Then, in desperation, Allen could only turn his head to Camellia, who was following Shi Shi, and gave instructions carefully.
Camellia can be favored by Allen among all the tribesmen. Naturally, she has her own advantages. Not only is her appearance considered beautiful in the Bugbear aesthetics, but her intelligence is also outstanding. She can compare herself with two unknown people. It can be seen that which bugbear species' child is not as weak and weak as other bugbear children.
After some instructions, Allen reluctantly took ten goblin warriors with him, followed Fili to manage their caravan, and slowly moved forward into the distance.
After losing more than 40 elite warriors, the kobolds shrank back. Although they were aware of the human caravans passing through their territory, they never sent any teams to cause trouble, allowing Allen and the others to get through it easily.
When passing by the kobold's territory, Allen once thought about quietly exploring the vicinity of the opponent's camp to investigate, but before he could get out of the opponent's camp, he was discovered by the kobold with a good nose. There were already some kobolds who were all over the place. Although they did not send anyone to hunt down Allen, there were some kobold warlocks who personally stepped forward and fired a surprisingly powerful fireball from a distance, almost turning Allen into fertilizer in the wilderness.
After being frightened by this, Allen no longer dared to act alone, and obediently followed Fili to take charge of their team until they entered the depths of the desert before relaxing.
The desert area covered with yellow sand is even worse than the environment where Allen and the others once lived. However, in this harsh environment, there are still many creatures. Allen can't imagine how they survived.
"Be careful. Although this desert seems to be endless and sparsely populated, in fact it contains dangers that even exceed the wilderness where you exist."
During these times, Allen deliberately made friends with Regis and the others, and asked Regis for various skills as a warrior. The relationship between the two parties became much closer. On the battlefield, Allen and Regis surrendered their lives to each other. Coupled with Allen's relatively simple and generous temper at this time, it was really difficult to gain the favor of a mercenary.
"Look, there are ripple marks on the sand dunes in front of you. Do you believe there is a desert viper hiding underneath, waiting for prey to enter its hunting range?"
Regis took Allen with him, and quickly found a seemingly calm and safe ground with eagle eyes, and taught some mercenaries some survival skills.
Allen tried to find some signs of danger on the ground pointed by Regis, but in the end he found nothing. Regis didn't say much, and casually took out a nut from his pocket and threw it towards the abnormal sand surface he found. The moment the nut hit the ground, a slender black shadow suddenly burst out from the fine sand, just in time to catch it. Lived by nuts that fell in the desert.
"Despite the small size of this desert viper, the venom in its fangs is very powerful. Even if a behemoth like a sandstorm lizard is bitten, if it is not treated within half a magic hour, it will die from the venom of this viper. Desert There are many more poisonous poisons like vipers than in your wilderness, so you must be careful when walking in the desert."
"Yeah, I understand."
Allen couldn't get rid of the scene of the viper's sudden attack in his mind, so he nodded with lingering fear.
While Regis taught Allen the knowledge of survival in the desert, he would sometimes fight with Allen during morning exercises and teach him the basic skills of a two-handed sword. Compared with the skills that Allen has figured out by himself, the basic skills that humans have accumulated over thousands of years are really the most precious knowledge for Allen. Therefore, at this time, Allen is always the most attentive, trying to master what Regis said. Every word I said is deeply etched in my mind.
Faced with such a smart and diligent student, Regis even wanted to teach him his own combat skills, but after thinking about it, he gave up. For humans, bugbears are the lowest intelligent creatures. Now Allen has proved himself with his own talents. However, humans' deep-rooted discriminatory mentality still makes Regis and the others unwilling to have a relationship with bugbears. Too many entanglements.
Allen didn't notice this kind of discrimination from humans at all. His tribesmen were dominated by humans for ten days. Many of them used the fights between bugbears to relieve their boredom, and used food to seduce the simple-minded bugbears to tear each other apart. Fighting, although these actions were seen by Allen, he thought that since he accepted Feili's employment, as long as the other party did not let his tribe die for no reason, just fighting and biting would not be enough for the rough-skinned bugbears. Say, it’s not a big deal at all.
On the contrary, these days, with humans on their side, the bugbears have gotten a lot more exercise. After communicating with humans from time to time, their common language has gradually become smoother, and ordinary conversations are no longer as smooth as they used to be. It's ambiguous and the words don't convey the meaning, so this can be considered an unexpected surprise.
Allen secretly kept these changes in his tribe in mind, and thought about how to let the tribesmen communicate more after returning from the Elf Kingdom, so as to change the dilemma of finding a communication partner in the tribe.
Of course, in addition to hanging out with Regis on weekdays, Allen also did not forget to communicate with Fili, a shrewd human businessman, especially when the other party added other content to his map from time to time. Allen always carried a Sincerely ask for advice, please don't forget to add it to your sketch.
"After passing this desert, and walking forward for more than 200 miles, we will pass by the last tribe in the wilderness - the Thunder Tribe, where we can complete the first transaction with the people of the Thunder Tribe. After passing the Thunder, we will not fall. After entering the territory, we will arrive at the Castle of Thorns, the frontier city of the Elven Kingdom, after three days’ journey.”
Fili is not like Regis, who teaches Allen what he knows for nothing. Every time Allen asks the other party for advice, he has to pay a certain price to get what he knows. In just a few days, In that time, the food reward that Fili had promised to Allen had shrunk by 500 pounds, which made his heart feel as painful as a needle prick every time he went to ask Fili for advice.
