Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords
#18 - Damn, I'm a clown.
“Using Orc slaves to form a pioneer guard? I admit your idea is not bad.” Flynna's lips curled up slightly, and it was hard to tell whether it was praise or mockery. “But I have to remind you that these Orc barbarians are as famous for their unruly temper as they are for their bravery. No one can make them listen obediently.”
‘Unless you can beat them into submission, these Orc barbarians only obey the strong.’
Flynna added silently in her heart, but how could this be…
Suddenly, she thought of what Leah had said earlier, that Li Wei could throw an iron javelin five hundred steps away.
But how is this possible? Five hundred steps? Even the range of a large ballista is only that far. How could a human do it?
Even Orcs, who are famous for their strength, can only throw it about a hundred steps.
Thinking of this, Flynna couldn't help but size up Li Wei.
He is quite handsome, even outstanding among the beautiful elves, but looking at his slender and well-proportioned figure, which is far from being sturdy.
She shook her head again, how could this be possible…
Flynna only thought that Leah must have made a mistake, saying five hundred steps instead of fifty steps.
In Li Wei's eyes, Flynna showed a look of satisfaction after looking at his appearance, but after looking at his figure a few times, she shook her head to herself.
Huh?
Is she looking down on him?
Does she think he is weak?
“Ahem, Madam, some things cannot be judged by appearance alone. You have to grasp the essence through the appearance.” Li Wei raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully.
If Flynna meant to take care of him, Li Wei wouldn't mind humbling himself. After all, this would save him thirty years of detours and directly reach the goal in one step.
When Flynna dies, this huge northern territory will belong to him.
If he can inherit the family business, who would want to start a business miserably?
“What are you talking about?”
Flynna was confused. After asking the servant to find parchment, she dipped a quill in ink and wrote beautiful common words of the ancient continent.
‘Damn, I'm becoming a clown.’
Looking at Flynna, who was pretending to know nothing and acting officially, Li Wei's heart skipped a beat, and he felt like he had a small red ball on his nose.
“Forty gold coins per head, don’t think it’s expensive, these Orcs are worth the price.” Seeing Li Wei seemed to want to bargain, Flynna interrupted directly.
After rolling up the parchment and tying it with a silk ribbon, she handed it to Li Wei. “Take it to Howling Arena, and you will get fifty Orc barbarians.
After taking the parchment, Li Wei's previous embarrassment disappeared.
Two thousand gold coins were completely emptied, and a mountain of gold was exchanged for only a piece of parchment, but Li Wei smiled with satisfaction.
Logically speaking, opening a store with these two thousand gold coins is the safest option.
And pioneering territory is like stocks in his previous life. Although the future income is considerable, the risk is extremely high.
If he is not careful, he may even lose all his money, leaving him with nothing.
In the end, like those pioneering predecessors, he can only sell his ass to repay his debts.
But Li Wei only knows one truth.
The neighbor hoards food, he hoards soldiers, and the neighbor is his granary!
When funds are insufficient, he can just moonlight as a wasteland bandit. With his strength, plus fifty Orc barbarians, he is a strong and powerful turd-stirrer in the wasteland.
Moreover, plunder is better than hard work!
Didn't the US military rely on this trick to get started in his previous life?
“A final reminder, I won’t take these Orcs back if they don’t listen.”
Flynna glanced at Li Wei.
Since these Orcs were captured back to the arena, she had also thought about taming them and letting them wear iron armor to be meat shields in the front row.
Unfortunately, even knights who had learned Battle Qi were beaten by these Orcs and couldn't get out of bed for half a month.
In the arena, they are even lazy and have a bad reputation. She is completely paying to support them.
Killing them will affect the relationship between the Martell family and the Orcs, and letting them go will make the Martell family lose face.
She has been unable to properly dispose of them, which has given Flynna a headache.
She even suspects that these Orcs intended to attack White Stream City in order to be captured and deliberately freeload.
Now that someone is willing to pay to take over, she is naturally happy to do so.
“Of course.” Li Wei showed a meaningful smile.
He stood up, bowed to Flynna, and walked out along the way he came.
Unexpectedly, he met Leah just as he walked out of the passage.
“Li Wei, are you leaving?” Compared to before, Leah's eyes were much more swollen. Obviously, she had a hearty cry and released the emotions in her heart.
“Yes, Miss Leah.” Having gotten what he wanted, the smile on Li Wei's face never stopped.
“Thank you for your care along the way.” Leah bowed.
Although Li Wei was very stingy along the way and showed no respect for the lord, the feeling of being treated as an equal was something Leah had never experienced before.
The stories he told her because the journey was boring were also very novel.
Thinking of this, she said reluctantly: “Li Wei, if your pioneering is not smooth, you can come to me…”
“If you keep jinxing me, be careful I’ll beat you!”
Li Wei blocked Leah's ambition that had been不死 since the beginning.
……
Walking on the streets of White Stream City.
Li Wei held the parchment in his hand, feeling a sense of preparedness, only waiting for the opportunity.
He raised his hand to stop a passing carriage and spent three silver coins to rent it generously.
“Go to Howling Arena!”
Because Zart was too large, he could only rely on his feet and follow the carriage miserably.
The carriage sped along the streets of Cologne, and the surrounding buildings gradually became shorter and sparser, moving from the bustling center to the edge of the city.
The arena is the pillar industry of the Deber Kingdom, or rather, the entire Ancient Continent, because it has various non-human races, coupled with the lack of entertainment, all of this provides fertile ground for the development of the arena, making it a pressure-relieving sport no less than a brothel.
There are more than a dozen arenas, large and small, in White Stream City alone. Howling Arena can become the number one arena, there is nothing special about it, just because its owner is the Martell family.
Most other emerging arenas are built with logs and bricks, while Howling Arena is made of exquisite granite.
Eight granite pillars are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main entrance, supporting the tall circular dome.
This shows the heritage of the old noble Martell family.
“Sir, today is a rest day, all the fighters are resting, please come again another day.”
This was the first sentence Li Wei heard as soon as he entered the door.
At the same time, he felt a strong sense of offense.
Even the other world has rest days. What kind of life was he living without a break all year round in his previous life?
Moreover, he has been in the arena for so long, and this is the first time he has heard of a rest day.
Damn arena boss…
