Chapter 784: Go to the Orc Area
After asking Hayden to personally imprison the indigenous leader and the priestess in the small city dungeon, Gervais rode the Rapid Dragon Bird to the river bank outside the city.
"Your Majesty the King!"
"Your Majesty Gervais!"
At this time, what Gervais faced was a broken bridge that had been burnt to half black. It was the bridge that originally connected the other side and could reach the city of Johnson and others the fastest.
Alec and Goblin Chachar are here to check the condition of the river bank.
Now that the Holy Bridge Castle has been captured, the bridge across the river must be built as soon as possible so that Gervais's caravan can travel quickly and safely.
So when setting off, Gervais took Chachar with him.
"How about checking, how long would it take to build a strong wooden bridge here?"
Gervais nodded to the two of them and immediately asked.
"Your Majesty Gervais, this river is more than three hundred meters wide. Under normal circumstances, it will take at least three months to complete the bridge construction!"
"However, your order is to build it as quickly as possible, so as long as you allocate 3,000 ordinary laborers and 200 title knights to me, I can guarantee that it will be completed within a month!"
Nowadays, Chazhar has tasted the benefits under Gervais's hands. Gervais has already told Caroline that Chazhar's treatment can be improved as much as possible.
Especially since he had enough wine, Chazhaer was already happy with the sacred forest and had no thoughts of leaving.
After all, if he returned to the Goblin tribe, how could he live a life like this?
Even when Gervais asked him to send people back to recruit some goblins a few days ago, Chazhaer never thought of going back by himself. Instead, he sent a few soldiers to let them return to the Goblin tribe.
.
There is no need for him to do the work here. He only needs to design various buildings and tools that he likes, and at the same time arrange how those goblin subordinates will do the construction. It is simply not enough for the leader of the goblin clan.
.
"Very good! Then I'll leave the things here to you! You go back with me tomorrow, and then go find what Caroline told you about the manpower and materials you need to build the bridge."
"When the bridge is built, the benefits will be yours!"
A month is indeed not long, after all, the river is more than 300 meters wide.
"Yes, Your Majesty Gervais, I will definitely serve you well!"
Chazhar immediately showed a flattering expression, bowed and nodded towards Gervais.
…
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Gervais took 200 direct guards and escorted more than 2,500 natives back to St. Ann's City.
There are no cities around the Holy Bridge Castle, and the nearest one is more than a hundred miles away, so Gervais only left two hundred direct guards to stay behind, while Hayden and Alec were left to temporarily manage it.
In order to make the Holy Bridge Castle safer, Gervais also left thirty rapid dragon birds for them to use, which can monitor the movement within fifty miles of the city around the clock.
With such an arrangement, unless there is a real attack by a large force or strong men, there should be no problem in terms of safety for Gervais.
…
"Come on, you big guy!"
Snapped!
The return journey was even slower because there were more than 2,000 indigenous people on foot.
After much procrastination, on the morning of the third day, Gervais and his team finally appeared outside St. Ann's City.
The indigenous leader had been on the road for the past three days and had not yet made any food, so even he, the Red Flag Knight, couldn't stand it any longer.
When he stumbled and walked slowly for a few steps, the goblin Chazhar immediately swung his whip and hit the native leader with a crisp sound.
However, this indigenous leader was really stubborn. He had not eaten any grains in the past three days, and Cha Zha Er was whipped all the way, but he didn't say a word.
Even Gervais doesn't know his name yet.
Of course, this is also due to the fact that Chazhar's strength is too low. The whip may sound loud when it is struck, but it actually does no harm to the indigenous leader at all!
Gervais ignored these Chachas all the way. Since Chacha liked this mouthful and enjoyed it, let him go. After all, it was difficult to control the natives who were too hard-boned.
…
"Gervis! I miss you!"
Returning to St. Ann's City, Gervais and others received a warm welcome.
Because the Rapid Dragon Bird came back in advance to inform them, Caroline and others had already prepared food and wine to treat the group.
At this time, Gervais took a comfortable hot bath under the service of Anna's maid, and then walked out of the small building, and Caroline finally finished her work and came to see Gervais.
Bo!
Caroline's natural response was a powerful wall-dong.
"How's the gathering place going these days?"
Gervais took Caroline and asked as he walked towards the temple.
"Three days ago, another group of orcs rushed out of the mountains and wanted to attack us, but in the end they were repelled by those turrets!"
Caroline tilted her head and leaned on Gervais' arm and replied softly.
"Very good! Just remember to reward them!"
Gervais nodded. Now both the orcs and himself are focusing on the Land of God's Fall, so those weak orcs are not a threat at all.
"Rewards have been given. In addition, several girls in the medical team have developed spiritual power!"
Caroline continued
"Oh, what abilities do they have?"
Gervais was very satisfied and asked with a smile.
"According to the method you taught me, five are of the wood element, three are of the water element, and one is of the fire element!"
Which type of magician is is easy to identify as long as you have spiritual power. You can tell by meditating directly to see which color of magic is closest to you.
The wood element is green, the water element is blue, the fire element is red, the earth element is brown, the wind element is cyan, and the undead element is gray. Gervais has already told Caroline, so as long as the medical team members can tell it themselves
The corresponding color can be determined
"Five wood elements, three water elements? Very good, you can urge them to contact you more when the time comes!"
Since it is a medical team, the wood and water elements are the best. After all, they both have healing spells.
As for the fire element, that doesn't matter at all. The medical team also has to go to the battlefield. The protection of the fire element magician can also ensure the safety of the medical team.
"Okay, Gervais! I will pay more attention to them!"
During the conversation, Gervais and Caroline arrived at the square of the temple, and then had a sumptuous celebration banquet with a group of direct guards.
At the same time, Gervais also announced the reward this time in public. Each member of the Guards who participated in the battle would be rewarded with five gold coins. For every enemy killed, gold coins would be added based on the head count.
Although the Holy Bridge Castle is small, it has brought Gervais an income of more than 10,000 gold coins, all of which were found from the natives or their houses, so Gervais is not stingy at all.
…
After the celebration banquet, the captives were temporarily under the custody of Gandalf and Gust, and Gervais took Caroline directly back to the small building.
Back in the small building room, just when Gervais was about to discuss life with Caroline, there was a knock on the door.
"Your Majesty, Captain Ike and the others are back and are asking for an audience outside the temple!"
Anna's little maid's voice came from outside the door.
"..."
"Hehe! Go quickly!"
Caroline looked at Gervais's face with black lines, covered her red lips and laughed.
"Then you have to wait for me!"
Gervais got up and walked out of the house depressedly. At the same time, he was planning not to give Ike and these guys a good look later. Isn't this completely disrespectful to him?
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
When Gervais came to the temple, Ike and ten other people stood in the temple waiting for him, and Gervais felt relieved.
Of course, although a few people were unscathed, they were disheveled. It can be seen that they have worked very hard these days.
Seeing this, Gervais put away his resentment and said to several people.
"Sit down and talk!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Perhaps Ike and the others were really tired, and they were not being pretentious. After listening to Gervais's words, they walked aside and sat on the wooden chairs.
"How was your outing? Did you encounter any danger?"
After all ten people in Ike were seated, Gervais asked.
"Your Majesty, thanks to the potion you gave us, although we encountered two groups of pursuers on the road, we managed to escape in the end..."
The guards were deeply moved when they heard that Gervais spoke first and cared about them.
Ike immediately told the story of this investigation in detail.
This time they followed Gervais's instructions and headed west. Although there were dozens of confusions during the period, they finally found traces of the orcs after six days of flight.
While investigating the orc city, they encountered a wave of orc aerial knights. Fortunately, they had potions to enhance their strength, and finally used the speed of the rapid dragon bird to throw away the enemy.
The second wave of interceptors encountered was the Golden Shield Family. When they were still two days away from St. An City, they encountered the Golden Shield Family's rapid dragon bird pursuit.
In the end, the same medicine was used to enhance the strength of the rapid dragon bird to escape.
"Your Majesty, this is the map we drew this time, but there may be some errors in the orientation!"
After talking about what happened, Ike immediately took out a blueprint from his arms and handed it to Gervais.
Gervais took the drawing and looked at it for a moment, then nodded.
"You did a good job this time, go down and have a good rest for a few days!"
The map of this world is all drawn by hand. Gervais did not expect it to be accurate at all. He just hoped to know the general direction and find one of the small cities.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After Ike and others retreated, Gervais put away the drawings and hurried back to the small building, and then...
…
Early the next morning, Gervais was full of energy, mounted the Rapid Dragon Bird and flew into the sky towards the west.
Now that he has figured out the specific location of the orcs, Gervais naturally wants to go back quickly. Days without energy points are even more uncomfortable than days without gold coins.
Therefore, this time Gervais rode one and took three rapid dragon birds with him, and went alone.
Flying in the air and watching the city of St. Ann getting further and further away, Gervais put the purple scroll in his hand into the space.
When Gandalf learned that he would be going out alone for more than a week this time, he immediately returned the forbidden curse scroll to him, saying that he was worried that Gervais was traveling alone.
In the end, Gervais didn't refuse much. He really didn't have any trump cards this time and only had 8 energy points left. Although he could exchange gold coins for a few points, which was enough to buy one or two kiwis.
But this time I am going to the orc city, and I don’t know if it will be enough.
Gervais has also made a plan, which is to get a vote and run away, and will never be greedy for more!
…
In this way, Gervais flew towards the west according to the terrain on the map.
After flying for about four days, Gervais finally arrived at the edge of the Orc area.
After entering the orc area, Gervais immediately lowered the flying height of the Rapid Dragon Bird to hide his body. Finally, at dusk, he finally found a small indigenous town occupied by the orcs.
Gervais did not dare to ride the Rapid Dragon Bird close to the small town. Instead, he stayed two or three miles away and landed in the woods outside the city.
"This small town is quite well defended!"
In the woods outside the city, Gervais hid among the branches and observed the gates and walls of the small city. He found that the entire city was tightly guarded by the orcs, and there was even a small group of birds circling in the sky. He wanted to sneak in under such a situation.
That is very difficult.
But without sneaking into the city, Gervais won't be able to get a lot of energy points. He can't just go all the way and earn dozens or hundreds of energy points and go back!
"Hey! Maybe I can get in among them!"
Just when Gervais was thinking about how to enter the city, he suddenly discovered that there was a long line of descendants of the servants of God being escorted on the road not far away.
Gervais immediately thought of a way to enter the city, which was to enter the city among these descendants of the servants of God.
However, after entering the city, he didn't know how easy it would be to leave the city.
"Wealth can be found in danger! Make money first and then talk about it!"
Seeing that the group of hundreds of descendants of the Servants of God were about to pass by, Gervais didn't have time to think too much and immediately walked to the side of the road, and then quickly moved into the crowd while the orc guards were not paying attention.
However, the descendants of the Servants of God did not react at all to Gervais' sudden addition. Their faces were ashen and their eyes were dull.
Gervais didn't think much and followed the others into the small town occupied by the orcs.
After entering the small town, Gervais was taken to the center of the small town along with the descendants of the servant of God and imprisoned.
He and more than a hundred natives were imprisoned in a large courtyard. There were several strong orcs on guard on the walls of the courtyard and on the roof of the house.
"I'm afraid that pillar is the orc's totem pole, right?"
The sky was not completely dark at this moment, and Gervais was not ready to take action. However, his attention was attracted by a stone pillar more than ten meters high in the square.
The stone pillar was as thick as four or five people could hold it, and there were many strange symbols and patterns on the stone pillar that shone with golden-red light.
"So if you want to make a big deal tonight, I'm afraid you have to destroy this thing first!"
Gervais frowned slightly. The totem pole of the orcs was actually almost as effective as the holy tree of the human race, except that the totem pole was unconscious and its effect was not as strong as the holy tree.
But it can add a certain amount of combat power or various auxiliary functions to the orcs within the range, and almost every larger orc group will have its own totem pole to protect the group.
