The Ivan Jackal Tribe, which was once divided into two, finally reunited into one a month ago, and the price was that the two tribes had a total of more than 100 people. Later, the total population dropped to less than 70 people.
But Nathan was still very happy. After all, he finally became the final winner. Boban, who originally competed with him for the leadership of the Ivan tribe, became a homeless dog after his defeat. Nathan was exiled to the wilderness and became a member of the wilderness wanderers. molecular.
Of course, Nathan was able to win in the end only with the help of the Bone Broken Tribe. Ye. Bone Broken, an advanced assassin’s kobold, helped him assassinate Boban in the most critical battle, which made him suffer unbearably. After a small injury, Nathan took the opportunity to lead the tribe's elite in a decisive battle with Boban's men. The final result is self-evident. Boban held on to his injured body to fight, but in the end he was still defeated by Nathan. The frustrated Boban tribe was defeated by the Nathan tribe and then returned to the camp of the Ivan tribe. Come in.
As a price for helping himself, after Nathan re-cleaned the team of gnolls who had joined him, he needed to dispatch the team to the west to find trouble with the greenskin tribe. Bonecrusher did not forcefully ask Nathan to defeat the greenskin tribe, because he also knew that there was basically no hope of success; but Bonecrusher offered chips, using wild fish, food, etc. as the price. , in exchange for a green-skinned head. A green-skinned head can be exchanged for about 50 pounds of wild fish and food.
Even if the Ivan tribe can bring more than ten green-skinned heads to the Bonebreaker at a time, the Bonebreaker will exchange iron tools with the Ivan tribe. This deal will be tempting.
Looking at the tribes within a thousand miles, it seems that only the kobolds of the Bone Broken Tribe can collect iron ore and smelt iron tools. Although the iron tools they cast are rough in appearance and poor in quality, compared to Nathan and the others, For tribes that have no source of iron at all, things are much better.
As a result, Nathan's interest in the greenskins naturally became more intense. Although their tribe's territory was not small and the food resources in it were not bad, it only made the jackals of Ivan's tribe hungry. But if you want to survive in the wilderness, in addition to food being essential, weapons are equally important.
Jackals are not bad in physical fitness. Like bugbears, when they mature individually, they can basically guarantee the strength of level 6 warriors. However, they do not have the strength and endurance of bugbears. They want to use ironwood to make wooden sticks and maces. They are not easy to use, so they prefer iron weapons. However, there are many mineral deposits in the wilderness, but there are not many ethnic groups who know how to identify the minerals and dig them out in the deep soil, let alone the more complicated smelting of refined iron after digging them out.
For a long time, the iron tools of the Ivan tribe were inherited from their grandfathers or plundered from caravans that rarely passed through this place. Due to the rust and wear of the iron tools, most of the tribe now has them. Some tribesmen do not have a complete iron weapon, and most of them only use spears with an iron tip.
The reason for sending troops to attack the green-skinned hunting party was, firstly, to repay the kobolds for their help in assassinating Boban. Secondly, it was also because the Bonecrusher had promised him the conditions for their heads to be exchanged for food and iron tools. Even the second reason was to accept The key point of Sen's dispatch of troops, the first two words, so-called reward, are the most weightless things in the wilderness.
Yesterday's harvest was good, with 8 green-skinned heads earned, it seems that we are only one step away from the goal of 10 heads. As long as we focus on a green-skinned hunting team next time and capture them, we can get 10 iron tools from the kobolds. This deal is very cost-effective no matter how you look at it.
Nathan was very happy, and with a wave of his hand, the 8 green-skinned corpses became the staple food for today's carnival, enough for the tribesmen to enjoy a good meal. Even after being left overnight, these green-skinned corpses that had not been processed had a rotten smell, but the flaws were not hidden and they were still edible.
The tribesmen cheered and expressed their support for Nathan with exaggerated movements, and then hurriedly looked for firewood, coarse salt and other items to prepare for today's rich meat meal, but no one noticed that Under the cover of a nut tree not far outside their village, two eyes have been watching the various behaviors of the Ivan tribe.
Tracking the whereabouts of Nathan's group did not take much effort from Allen and the others, even if it was already the second day for Allen and the others to track the traces they left along the way. Nathan didn't seem to have worried about being followed by the greenskins, and he didn't think about asking the strongest members of the tribe to restrain their tracks on the way, which gave Allen and the others a lot of convenience.
Allen didn't feel much when faced with the scene where the corpses of his tribesmen were skinned and disemboweled and then put on the grill. It wasn't that he didn't feel sad for the dead tribesmen, but these scenes had often appeared in the Green Field Tribe a long time ago. Hua She was a little angry, but with Allen pressing his shoulders and signaling him not to act rashly, Hua She could only stare bitterly at the jackal village opposite, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge and return.
"There seems to be something wrong with the population of their tribe. When I checked before, they only had about 50 people at full strength. After a few months, the population of this jackal's tribe has increased by almost half!"
Allen and the others were downwind of the jackal village, so they didn't have to worry about their scent being detected by the jackals with sensitive noses. However, when Allen hid in the shade of the trees and observed the movement in the village, his face also rose a little. Doubts come.
"If they don't have such strength, why would they dare to provoke our tribe!!"
Hua Snake didn't feel it at all, but felt that this was normal. The current population strength of the Jackal Tribe was an opponent that seemed to be comparable to the strength of the Green Field Tribe.
It's a pity that their jackals are cruel by nature, and they lose their sense after seeing blood. It is extremely difficult to get along with other foreign races. Otherwise, Allen really thought about capturing some jackals and taking them back to see if they could tame them and become his own fighting force. Fight the threat of the Bonecrusher Horde.
"Their tribe has a larger population and a lot stronger strength. We can't take action rashly. You just keep watching here while I go see how the Gnoll tribe next door is doing. I always feel that the population of this Gnoll tribe is growing. , should be related to the jackal tribe on the other side."
Seeing that there was no chance, Allen gave Hua Shen some instructions.
"good."
Hua She doesn't understand why Allen keeps thinking about useless things all day long. What we have to deal with is this group of jackals, and it has little to do with the other group of jackals. However, Allen is the leader of the clan after all, and Hua Shen doesn't listen to what he says, and now it seems that the jackal opposite has no plans to go out, so Hua Shen can only stay here and monitor, and there is nothing else he can do.
