Seeing the young man in front of him leave his house without looking back, Barr had a doubt in his heart. Why was there no bargaining process?
In the past few years, many Rovanians have sent messages to him. Although they also showed a certain degree of disgust, this was the first time I saw Baal being so forthright.
I took a cautious look at the emblem on the letter again. It was a knight holding a spear and riding a horse charging on the grass. Well, this was very familiar to Barr, and it was not the first time he had seen it.
As for such a beautifully shaped seal, few people are willing to spend a lot of money to order it from the dwarves, not to mention that the dwarves would not just sell such a thing to a second person.
After confirming that he had not been deceived, Barr gradually became happy. He waved his hand and asked his men to find the young man who was best at riding horses. He himself sat at the table in the hall and poured himself a glass of wine.
, thinking in his mind that he was going to make a big deal this time.
Last year, Baal traded nearly a hundred northern humans and a dozen Dongyi teenagers to Fatis. These hundreds of people exchanged a lot of goods for him. His boss Ashur was very satisfied.
The tribal leader who begged him was very satisfied, and even Baal's own younger brother was very satisfied.
But Barr was not satisfied. He had such a temperament that he would never be satisfied. Otherwise, he would not have risked being killed to talk about "trade" after being driven away by Fatis.
Today, the orders Baal obtained can bring him ten times the income of last year. Although dwarves are indeed worth more than humans in the Dongyi slave trade, there is definitely not a five-fold difference.
Now, Baal has to exchange two hundred dwarves for the benefits he would get from thousands of humans. This is even more than all the wealth he has earned in the past few years. There is no way this Dongyi warlord can't help but do it.
Soon, at the leader's command, a dozen Dongyi cavalrymen riding fast horses left Baal's camp in teams of two, casually dispersed and headed north.
As Brendan said, you always need to inquire about information before starting a sale. Two hundred dwarves are definitely not a small number. Unless Barr has the courage to go to the towns occupied by the chiefs to buy, otherwise, just in the surrounding areas
It takes a lot of time for a small tribe to gather together.
The departure of a dozen cavalrymen also alarmed the birds flying in the wasteland. They circled and flew higher into the sky. Then they caught up with the running cavalry before they even noticed it, and there was a withered yellow sky in the distance.
And among the dense grass, Allen was observing Barr's territory with a telescope, and the cavalry also left under his nose.
Regardless of whether Barr is sincerely willing to serve him, Allen will not leave the decision-making power of this matter completely to a Dongyi warlord. He has some kindness, some integrity, and sometimes a little hypocrisy.
But he is definitely not stupid. No matter what, he will not really believe Barr.
Of course, we will not accept any form of extortion, such as a transaction that doubles the price.
It's just that Allen still doesn't know that Barr has opened his mouth to his lion. The purpose of his coming here is just to confirm that this Dongyi man is really doing things for him. In addition, he also brought two people who are proficient in talking with birds.
Secret agents, come here to get first-hand information.
And Hermione, who was only wearing the clothes of a Noldor noble, was carefully observing everything around him. The wilderness of this period was not only dangerous to humans. Due to the scarcity of food, hungry beasts were everywhere.
The smallest movement may reveal the traces of one's group.
Although this place is not considered the hinterland of the Dongyi people, Allen brought three men with him when he came out this time, one of him and two spies. Once there is any movement, it is still very dangerous, which makes Hermione nervous all the time.
All tense.
Allen no longer has this worry. If he wants to, he can immediately summon 500 fully armed and tireless Swadia knights who are not afraid of pain. Among other things, they massacred Baal's camp.
There is no problem at all, and the loss will not even be huge.
It's just that there is no benefit to him in doing so, and Allen is not a murderous person. In a sense, he particularly likes war, but that is only in the game, and in reality, he does not
He is too able to accept the death of people around him on the battlefield, but he cannot avoid experiencing this kind of thing again and again.
This is very helpless, but it is also very training. At least when Allen faces death, he no longer has such strong emotional fluctuations. At least he can hide it.
"Let's go." Seeing that Barr immediately arranged for a courier to complete his order, Allen put away the monocular, then patted the weeds on his body and walked towards the slope not far away, where there were two horses
The elf horse is staying over there.
The two "animal friends" who were not particularly old nodded and followed. Their friends knew where to find them, so they did not need to stay here to wait. The last one to leave was Hermione.
At this time, his worries gradually relaxed.
Suddenly, a group of people who were approaching the slope heard the anxious neighing of the elf horse. Allen immediately reached out to stop the two young people beside him. After exchanging a look with Hermione, he said, "Huh!"
With a loud sound, he pulled out the long sword that was shining with silver light from his waist, and then circled to the left side of the slope at his fastest speed, while Hermione rushed to the right.
And just after the two of them rushed to the vicinity of the slope, the neighing of the elf horse had stopped, but a human howl sounded. When the two of them saw what happened, they felt something strange again.
funny.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I saw an elf horse using its two front hooves to press down a fairly well-dressed Dongyi man, while the other horse was
They were circling around one person and one horse, as if they were guarding. It was obvious that this was an accident in which a horse thief was knocked down by two horses that understood human nature very well.
"ah!
You damn beast, take away your hooves that deserve to be chopped off." The man lying on the ground and struggling desperately, yelled with extremely angry roar, but he was knocked to the ground, just like a
Like a tortoise that had its shell turned inside out, it was unable to stand up under the pressure of the elf horse.
"Bring them two here." Seeing that the scene was no longer dangerous, Allen asked Hermione to bring over the two children who were left behind, and he himself was preparing to torture the unlucky thief on the ground.
Horse thief.
It's not good to steal any horse, let's steal the elf horse. If we let the fight go, ordinary elite warriors may not be able to beat these two guys, let alone a stranger who doesn't know anything.
"Tell me, which tribe are you from?" Sensing Allen's arrival, the elf horse moved its two front hooves away from the Dongyi people's backs, but before the people on the ground could turn over, Allen's
The long sword with a cold light was placed on his neck.
The Dongyi people who noticed all this immediately stopped their actions. In the Luen area, if the owner is caught on the spot while stealing, being executed is already a good outcome. The worst thing is
Become a slave and live in a hopeless life for the rest of your life.
Unless someone will pay enough to ransom you, and the ransom is usually related to the stolen items.
"I am Laval, Lord Ashur's subordinate. You'd better let me go, and I can redeem my property."
In fact, Laval, who said this, had no confidence in his heart at all. Although he also had some property serving Ashur, he could not compare with the two magnificent horses in front of him, otherwise he would not risk being caught.
The risk of living, doing such a dirty thing, you know, he hasn't stolen anything in more than ten years.
It's just that now that Laval heard the extremely authentic rune language, he subconsciously thought that the person interrogating him should be someone from the Baal tribe. Then in the name of Ashur, this can be discussed. If it is done well, it may not be possible at all.
You can't lose much money.
"What are you doing here? Delivering a message to Barr?"
In fact, Allen who interrogated him certainly didn't care about Laval's compensation, and he didn't know much about the customs of the Dongyi people. At first, Allen was just simply interested in this Dongyi person. Now, he is interested in the Dongyi people.
I am also interested in Ashur's letters.
"You are not from Baal, who are you? Lord Ashur's affairs are not something you can inquire about. Don't seek death."
From Allen's words, LaVar immediately understood that things were not as simple as he thought. He only used Ashur's reputation to scare those who caught him, but Allen had already started to search his body.
, and Hermione, who came back with the child, stood in front of Laval.
Of course, the Dongyi man lying on the ground could not see much. There was only a pair of exquisite leather boots inlaid with silver rivets in front of him, but this still made him feel even heavier.
Balco can't afford such expensive boots, and even his master Ashur probably doesn't have them.
Soon, Allen found a piece of cloth from Laval's body, with some words written crookedly on it with black paint. These symbols that he didn't know what they meant didn't look like the beauty of the words at all, but revealed the meaning of the words.
A sense of barbarism.
The words could be understood, but Allen did not recognize the words. He placed the cloth in front of Laval's eyes.
"Tell me what is written on it, and you don't have to pay me any compensation. I will let you go, but I need to cut off one of your hands as the price for offending me. If you don't tell me, then you will lose
It's probably two hands, or something else that's very important to you, do you understand?"
Allen's voice was very calm, even a little gentle, but the content made Laval's hair stand on end. The sharp blade on his neck had already cut open the skin on his neck, and a trace of blood seeped out, and the pain
It also made him completely confused inside.
Laval, who has always lived in the Rune area, naturally knows the behavior of the Dongyi people. He has no doubts about Allen's words, and even feels that the punishment is not unacceptable, but he is still hesitant to betray his master.
.
After a few breaths, Horimion raised his feet and left Laval's sight. In fact, the Twilight Knight just went to take a look at his horse and did not want to do anything. However, this made the nervous Laval
A decision was made quickly.
"Please leave me my right hand that can hold the knife. Sir, I am willing to speak, I am willing to speak."
A person who has lost his hands is a useless person, and a useless person is worthless to Ashur. Even if a worthless person pays his loyalty, no Dongyi leader is willing to accept it, because you are just a useless person who wastes food.
"Read it, don't think about lying to me. There are many forces in this world that you don't know about that can tell whether you are lying."
As he spoke, Allen placed the piece of cloth on the ground, and his fingers flashed with dazzling lightning at the right time, which made Laval burst into tears during the day when the sun was shining brightly.
The Dongyi man, who could no longer suppress the fear in his heart, opened his mouth and began to read tremblingly. Now he only had one thought in his mind, who did he meet today?!
"Barr, you stupid guy, don't keep your eyes full of shit on those goods. Where is the terrain map I want? Where is the information on those warships? Where is the enemy's strength? If you always use
Some useless news has come to tease me. Soon, I will go to your territory in person, take off your head and make it into a wine cup, and pour wine for your son to drink. Do you understand?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "That's it...that's all." After saying this, LaVar lowered his head in resignation, bit the collar of his clothes fiercely, and waited.
The severe pain may come at any time.
Does Allen really want to chop off one of LaVar's hands? He can chop it off. If the Dongyi man never cooperates, pain will be the inevitable result.
But there is no need now. If it were in a war, Allen would not hesitate to take the life of the Dongyi man on the ground. But at this moment, Allen feels that it may be more in line with ensuring Laval's integrity.
own interests.
If a hand is cut off as Allen promised, then Laval, as the messenger, will definitely have to explain everything that happened today, and this is near the Baal territory and very close to the Red Water River. This can easily arouse Ah
Shure's doubts.
Perhaps Allen can do something with this news. He has never thought of letting Ashur go. The Dongyi leader's name is on the few must-kill lists. This is for
Those northern humans who could have become his subordinates.
That's tens of thousands of people.
"You know? My mind has changed. You have never seen me, and I don't know any news about Ashur. Your hand is saved. Of course, you can also report it to your master and see if he dares to
If you dare to trouble me, okay, I'm leaving, but I don't want you to see me like this, do you understand?"
As he spoke, Allen took away the long sword from Laval's neck, turned over and rode on the back of the hunter. After a roar, the rapid sound of horse hoofs sounded.
It wasn't until there was no sound anymore that LaVar dared to raise his head. After carefully looking at the surrounding situation, he picked up the cloth and folded it as before.
The strips of cloth used to convey information naturally have different features. They are not just folded up. There are rules in them. LaVar discovered this very early. He can indeed restore them, and this also helps.
When it comes to him, if Barr discovers it, I'm afraid his life will be worse than death in the following days.
After completing all this, LaVar walked towards his tied horse with hobbling steps. At this moment, he regretted extremely why he had become greedy.
But LaVar himself knew that even if he had to do it again, his decision would not change.
