On the wall of White Crow Camp, several guards were laughing.
"Damn it, can you not mention this?" Todd cursed angrily under the wall, "Sooner or later I will have to trouble old Hughes and make him regret betraying me. Can you let me in now and we will give it back to you?
I brought a friend here."
The people on the wall had already seen Zhou Qingfeng, so they asked: "Where did this kid come from?"
"His name is Victor. I can't tell where he comes from? But he saved me. Otherwise, I would have been thrown into a pot by those green-skinned guys to stew mature meat." Todd patted Zhou Qingfeng.
His shoulder was like a guarantee for him.
The people at the camp put down the hanging basket and pulled Todd and Zhou Qingfeng up.
Behind the solid wall is like a military fortress. Most of the people wear leather armor and carry weapons such as knives and axes. Even the women are stout and possess brute force—of course, they are also ugly.
The people in White Crow Camp are indifferent and xenophobic, but quiet and calm. Some are repairing armor and polishing weapons; some are transporting arrows to strengthen defense; some are praying silently, hoping for peace.
Those who can make a living in the Black Forest are not ordinary people. These guys with frosty faces and cold eyes are often called adventurers. Regardless of their strength, record, or experience, they are much stronger than ordinary rookies.
An adventurer often brings two or three armed attendants, plus five or six servants or slaves. They ride horses, ride in cars, or simply walk to various settlements in the Black Forest. This group never engages in farming. They rely on
Fight and kill for a living.
The adventurers could not be called friendly. Their eyes were alert and fierce, and they looked provocatively towards outsiders. Todd warned Zhou Qingfeng: "It is too dangerous in the black forest. Betrayals and sneak attacks often happen. For unfamiliar faces, everyone
There is no trust at all.
The camp does not like to receive visitors, unless they are caravans bringing supplies. For strangers, no matter how pitiful you are, you will be driven away. If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have ignored you, let alone brought you here
Come to the camp."
The buildings in the camp are all made of wood. The walls, houses, workshops, and stables are all small but well-equipped. Having such a place to stay makes Zhou Qingfeng feel more at ease. At least tonight he doesn’t have to spend time in a wild cave with the smelly Todd.
Spent it.
The leader of the camp is Lucans, a fierce forest guard who recruited a group of desperadoes to build a camp in this dangerous place and make a fortune by transporting and selling specialties from the Black Forest.
Todd said that he had some friendship with Lucans, so he wanted to take Zhou Qingfeng to get to know him. Only after asking around in the tavern and market in the camp, Zhou Qingfeng realized that the so-called "friendship" of the orcs meant that he knew Lucans, and Lukans
Kansi has only met him and may not remember him.
The bartender and the trader only said hello to Todd, but when asked about the whereabouts of the camp leader, they couldn't explain clearly. The guards always joked about Todd's embarrassment of being captured by the goblins, and kept silent about the leader's whereabouts.
This completely disappointed Todd's hope of finding a job. He stood by the stable and sighed, scratching his head and shrugging at Zhou Qingfeng: "I sometimes feel that you humans are so annoying, and you are always bullying us orcs. I feel that they are so stupid.
You're kidding me and not telling the truth."
"They really didn't tell the truth." The 'lying corsage' on Zhou Qingfeng's collar glowed red for a long time, which had long indicated that everyone in the camp was lying. However, both he and Todd were outsiders, unfamiliar with the place where they were standing.
I was in a daze in the camp, and no one paid any attention to me.
It is not surprising that people in a closed society form groups to bully outsiders. But it is not difficult to find a breakthrough.
The stables housed horses from various adventurers, and the stench was overwhelming. But this place was a cozy home for poor people and slaves. Outsiders who couldn't afford to stay in a tavern would come here to spend the night.
An old groom was pushing hay to feed the horses. Zhou Qingfeng took out a silver coin and flicked it on his finger, making a crisp sound.
The old groom's cloudy eyes immediately raised, he glanced around a few times and then said in a hoarse voice: "Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"
"What happened in the camp?" Zhou Qingfeng took out the silver coins but refused to give them, "Where is leader Lu Kansi?"
The old horseman shook his head, "You can't buy this news for a single silver coin."
"You're not the only one in the stable, maybe I have to ask someone else." Zhou Qingfeng didn't like being blackmailed, so he pretended to take back the silver coins.
Wait..., the old groom looked around again. He waved and led Zhou Qingfeng into the stable, and said in a low voice: "Master Modi appeared in the woods near the camp, and Leader Lukans blocked it.
For news, go to the master in person for divination and seek knowledge."
Zhou Qingfeng frowned, turned around and asked Todd: "Who is Modi?"
"A prophet," Todd said.
"A liar or something?"
"No, Mr. Modi is a real master, but he is very weird. A few years ago, he appeared in the Black Forest, wandering around various settlements, and his whereabouts are elusive. No one knows his origins.
But Master Modi doesn't ask for money or offerings, he only asks people questions. If you can answer his questions, he will allow you to make a request to him. He can do it for gold, silver, secrets, knowledge, or to help you predict the future.
Give generously.
Master Modi is omniscient, omnipotent, and almost omniscient and omnipotent. Many people have benefited from him. Lucans must have wanted to monopolize the benefits and issued a silence order, so no one in the camp dared to tell us the situation."
After listening to Todd's words, Zhou Qingfeng threw the silver coin to the old horseman and asked: "Where is Master Modi?"
The old horseman took the silver coin and wiped it in his hand. He chuckled with a wrinkled face and said: "The master is in the woods to the east of the camp, but leader Lukans has sent people to guard outside the woods and no outsiders are allowed in. If you want to go, you can
There's some trouble."
Zhou Qingfeng and Todd looked at each other, turned around and left. It was just that it was easy for them to enter the camp, but it was difficult to get out of the camp. The guards of the camp had long known that the news would be leaked, so they made a rule - now the camp is not allowed to enter or leave until Lu Kansi
Until the leader comes back.
This is really pointless.
When Zhou Qingfeng and Todd were blocked under the wall in a daze, the guards, merchants, slaves, and adventurers in the camp burst into laughter. Even the old horseman who had just taken a silver coin also came over, obviously
I knew this would happen earlier.
The little guard leader stood on the wall and teased: "Todd, your intelligence is not as good as that of the goblins, and you still want to see Master Modi? Leader Lukans has ordered that no one is allowed to cause trouble. Stop dreaming, you two, and be patient."
In the camp. Otherwise..."
A dozen guards drew short bows on the wall, and several camp adventurers grabbed knives and axes and sneered. The other servants and servants booed repeatedly, as if to anger the two foreign bumpkins, and then saw them being killed by their own arrows.
kill.
Todd was so angry that he yelled at the people in the camp for being shameless and despicable. But there were so many people in the camp that he could only curse a few times. Zhou Qingfeng, on the other hand, was much calmer. He patted the orc on the arm and shouted, "Stop scolding."
, save some energy."
Todd was unconvinced and said angrily: "Do you know how difficult it is to meet Master Modi? He really gives real benefits and doesn't charge any fees."
"Giving benefits for free without anything in return sounds good, but it always feels weird."
"How do you know it's weird? Have you seen it?"
"I haven't seen it, but you can go and see it."
