At this moment, when Xia Duo heard August's name again, he actually connected it with the elf. I have to say that this world is really too small, but that wizard Wilder doesn't have any elf characteristics.
Regarding the answer to this question, Derrick said this, "The August family is particularly hostile to elves. Every generation must intermarry with humans, and they have long lost their elven characteristics. Of course, it is certain that those with elven blood will have a slimmer body.
"
Shado thought about Master Wilder's tall figure and thought that it had nothing to do with being slender. However, he still asked the question he was most interested in, "The so-called 'elf dancers' are all from the August Territory."
Me?"
"Yes, sir, but not all of them are half-elves. Some of them are humans in disguise. Otherwise, how could we come to Savile Territory every year!"
"..."
"Sir, please don't underestimate these 'elf dancers'. Every year they come here and earn half of the money they earn from them!"
Okay, Shaduo won’t ask anymore, but thinking about it, Lord August is really a wonderful person! I don’t know how he thought of letting his half-elves make extra money for him!
And they are always named as elves.
How wonderful!
Shado had seen real elves in Savile Town, and even lived in the projection plane as an elf for several years. Now that he thinks carefully about the "Elven Dance" he saw at that time, it is indeed difficult to judge whether it is true or false without carefully distinguishing it.
If you were someone who didn’t know much about elves, you wouldn’t think those fakes were real!
This is interesting!
Afterwards, Shado chatted with Thain and Derrick for a few more words, and Owen had already loaded the cargo and was ready to sail.
When we returned this time, we brought some tools with us on the ship, such as axes, saws, ropes, chisels, planers, iron bars, whetstones, etc. Hundreds of people worked intensively on the territory every day, and the wear and tear on the tools was very serious.
Chateau saw this in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. Every time the Owen returned, he would ask the ship to bring some tools. Some damaged iron tools could also be brought back to Savile Town and recast for use.
Soon, amid the neat sound of trumpets, the "Lucky Owen" slowly sailed away from the port. Sha Duo waved towards the shore and summoned Thain and Derrick, who were still standing there, to go back.
Then he went into the captain's lounge on his own.
…
Since winter is about to begin, the water flow of the Wolfburg River is slower than in other seasons. Even if you go down the river, you don't arrive at the Linshui Village Pier until almost dusk.
After getting off the boat, someone was already arranging to unload the cargo at the dock. Xia Duo ignored it and went straight back to his small tent. After a while, Leiden came to the door.
"Sir, good news, Mott's little baby has learned to chop down trees!"
"What?!"
Sha Duo stood up immediately. It wasn't that he was making a fuss, but this matter was actually very important. Mort's little baby was actually a goblin undead creature.
Previously, Shado specially arranged for Simon's team to take Mort to kill the goblins and use the goblin corpses to perform the awakening ceremony. From the initial failures, to the barely successful ones, and now, Mort has awakened four skeleton goblins.
Of course, since there is only one death priest in the territory, Mott, he has to take care of the training of the undead creatures.
It's just that before, those skeleton goblins were stupid and couldn't understand human speech at all. Only Mott could barely communicate with them. Not to mention cutting down trees, they had to be held by ropes even for normal movement.
It's like walking a dog.
In fact, these skeleton goblins were worse than dogs. When they first brought these little guys back to the territory, they were bitten to death by the enemy's hounds on the spot.
We don't know what will happen to undead creatures after they die.
But now, Xia Duo was not in the mood to think about such profound issues. Now when he heard that those skeleton goblins had learned to chop down trees, all he could think about was——
Violent troops, violent troops again!
"Leiden, let's go and have a look!"
With that said, without giving Leiden time to react, Xia Duo rushed out and ran towards the cemetery to the south.
…
Cemetery, outside Mott's cabin.
Xia Duo looked at the skeleton goblin who was wielding a machete with a disappointed look on his face, then looked at Layton and Mott, and said angrily: "Is this what you said can cut down trees?!"
Strictly speaking, one of the four skeleton goblins did learn to chop down trees, but this was completely different from Sha Duo's expectations!
This skeleton goblin is just carrying a small machete and mechanically chops down a sapling!
Yes, it's just a sapling, not much thicker than a summer's finger. Not to mention an adult, even a child can easily cut it off.
But what about this skeleton goblin's results?
I have been cutting for a long time without cutting anything. I have indeed learned how to cut trees, but the power is too low!
The practical value is approximately zero!
Even if he were given an infinite number of such skeleton goblins, it would be almost impossible to chop down a normal tree. The entities could not be superimposed. At most, they would just form a circle. But with this little power, it would be impossible to chop down their souls.
Even if the fire annihilates it, it will probably continue to be cut down.
"Is this what you call someone who knows how to cut down trees?!" Xia Duo's voice became louder and his tone became harsher.
"Sir, it's my fault!"
Layton knelt down with a snap, and Mott was a little at a loss. He pinched his fingers and lowered his head. Even the little goblin who had been chopping down the tree stopped and turned around in a daze.
"Get up first!" Seeing Leiden kneel down, Xia Duo's inner depression also dissipated a little. It was also his fault that he didn't explain clearly before, making them think that they had learned to chop down trees as long as they had the action of chopping down trees.
There are no relatively clear standards like those in brick kilns, such as whether they will break when dropped or stepped on.
"Forget it this time, have you seen the tree to the south?"
"grown ups?"
The cemetery is already the southernmost part of Linshui Village, and further south is the unexplored forest. Xia Duo pointed with his finger, and a bright light flew out from his fingertips, surrounding a small tree as thick as an adult's thigh, and said:
"That's the one! The standard for cutting down a tree is that a goblin can chop it down in half a day!"
This standard is far lower than that of an adult, but considering that these skeleton goblins may be mass-produced in the future, this standard is not low.
Looking at the skeleton gnome that was still being led by a rope, Sha Duo felt angry again and simply stopped looking at it. He explained a few points to Mote and Layton about the Moon Festival sacrificial ceremony, then turned and left.
Returning to the small camp, Xia Duo took out "Deep Magic Network" and several spell books from his personal space, preparing to study at night, but when he saw the book, he couldn't help but let out a sigh:
"What a joy!"
well--
Xia Duo shook his head, as if to put away distracting thoughts, and it seemed to be effective. Soon he devoted himself to the vast and vast magical world.
