Chapter 429 430. Miss Qian Ning’s thoughts

When the mixed-blood elf warriors at the front of the team stepped into the gate of the North Mithril Mine, the tail of the team was still in the wilderness a few kilometers away.

In addition to thousands of mixed-blood elf warriors wearing standard armor, Miss Channing also saw a group of headhunter prisoners of war with their hands and feet tied in chains. When crossing the Kaldeum Mountains, there were nearly two hundred headhunter prisoners using various methods. Way to end his sinful life.

These headhunter prisoners of war who were able to reach the Northern Mithril Mine were obviously much more honest.

And Roy's return to the North Mithril Mine this time also seemed very impressive.

More than a month ago, Roy left with a thousand mixed-blood elf warriors from the North Mithril Mine. In the blink of an eye, he actually brought back four thousand mixed-blood elf warriors.

Although the Mine Guard is only a local army and its scope of activities is limited to the Pagisto Plateau area, it is enough.

Miss Qian Ning had long received the news from the Caldeum Mountains. Roy led the mine guards in front of him to fight all the way from Ghost Crow Ridge to Beifeng Canyon, killing all the headhunters on the western tundra. After cleaning up, we returned to the Sudarso Mountains this time, also wanting to enter the northern part of the plateau from the Tianpu Canyon.

Miss Channing stood on the city wall, holding one hand on the cold wall, looking at Roy riding a horse in the distance, accompanied by Sabrina, Woods, Moira, and Miss Tiffany. Several people.

Miss Qian Ning was a little envious of the unreserved trust between them...

With a hint of reluctance on her delicate face, she gently wiped the corners of her lips with her little finger to make the lip gloss on her lips look more natural.

Although the weather was very cold, Channing was wearing a long skirt with fluffy hem and a white fur shawl around her shoulders. Her golden curly hair was a little messy by the north wind.

…

Miss Channing's mother arrived at the North Mithril Mine ten days ago. She only lived in the North Mithril Mine for a week before leaving in a hurry and returned to the South Mithril Mine in the Sudarso Mountains.

Before leaving, Miss Qian Ning's mother was still imparting some experience to Miss Qian Ning, mainly telling Miss Qian Ning not to miss any opportunity. Sometimes... whether or not she can be promoted can often be decided in just one night.

Miss Qian Ning has always had some pride in her heart and does not think her mother's words are correct.

However, she had to admit that her mother was undoubtedly a victor with brilliant records in the war with her father's other lovers.

The North Mithril Mine is managed in an orderly manner by Miss Qian Ning. Currently, eight Mithril ingots are smelted every day. Even if the mixed elves are given a salary, the mine is currently maintaining this profit status.

If it weren't for the constraints of the old magic furnace, Miss Qian Ning would have the confidence to smelt ten mithril ingots every day...

It's just that these small achievements are like the white foam generated by the waves hitting the rocks in the mother's harsh words, which will be broken by the sea breeze.

"Channing Sidney, don't forget! You are just the daughter of a former mine owner. Once Roy Mine owner can fully control the two mithril mines, you will become penniless. It’s worth it, just think about how many mixed-blood elves will be hostile to you. Once you fall from the position of mine manager, you will be a sinner in the eyes of those mixed-blood elves..."

"They will not let you go, nor will they let me and your two sisters go. The best outcome may be that our whole family will be sent to the trial court and spend the rest of our lives in a dark prison. That will be the same as those in the mine. Is there any difference between mine slaves?”

"As the manager of two mithril mines now, do you still have a chance to marry another elf?"

"What do you think the mixed-blood elves on the Pagisto Plateau think of the daughters of the Sitney family? I have asked about them these days. Except for the dead ones, almost all the other mine owners have been sent to Padstow City…”

Thinking of these terrible things, Miss Channing's mother would burst into tears and twitch all over.

From that night on, when the owner of the Sitney mine was shot to death by random arrows from the Silver Pegasus warriors while fleeing, and when she changed from the mine owner's wife to a prisoner, the world in the eyes of Miss Channing's mother had completely collapsed. .

Miss Channing became the manager of two mithril mines, which was the last straw for her.

She wanted to grab the straw desperately to prevent herself from falling into the abyss of eternal damnation. It was obviously something she could do by lying down, but this straw still had some thoughts of her own?

This is why Qian Ning's mother did not hesitate to cross the entire Sudarso Mountains to meet Qian Ning.

Who would have thought that a young and unknown half-elf would become the real master of the Sudarso Mountains, the Gasi Mountains and the Kartim Mountains with almost brilliant achievements in just half a year.

Not only that, it is said that the mine guard team under his command has the support of the mixed elves on the entire Pagisto Plateau.

The owner of the Roy Mine is not only famous, but also firmly seated in the chair of the No. 1 mine owner of the Pajisto Plateau. It was not only the Silver Pegasus Legion that pushed him to this position, but also the entire Pajisto Plateau. The mixed-blood elves on the Stowe Plateau...

Miss Qian Ning's sisters and Miss Qian Ning's relatives are still in the South Mithril Mine, and they all hope that Miss Qian Ning can take another step forward.

In this way, the two mithril mines in the Sudarso Mountains may really be in the hands of Miss Channing Sitney. This is what the old Sitney mine owner has wanted to do for so many years but has not done so. things to arrive.

…

In fact, Roy was quite satisfied with Miss Qian Ning. When the plateau headhunters came to the city, she still organized the mixed-blood elf warriors to resist the headhunters.

And even in the most dangerous times, the North Mithril Mine did not stop the smelting work of Mithril ingots.

Being able to manage such a mithril mine in such an orderly manner is unique among the several mine managers promoted by Roy.

This is the only reason why Miss Qian Ning, as a family member of the former mine owner, was left in the mithril mine by Roy.

At that time, Roy really couldn't find a suitable mine owner. In fact, it's the same now!

…

The four thousand mixed-blood elf warriors cannot all live in the castle in the Northern Mithril Mine. Miss Channing has vacated as many rooms in the castle as possible so that more mixed-blood elf warriors can live in the castle. Unfortunately, the castle A large white tent was still set up outside.

During the time when Roy led the mine guards to leave the Gasan Mountains, there were still sporadic groups of headhunters appearing in the mountains and fields around the Northern Mithril Mine.

Now when these headhunters saw a large number of mixed-blood elven warriors stationed in the Northern Mithril Mine, they were so frightened that they immediately crawled into the mountains of the Sudarso Mountains.

Captain Tiprado's Griffin Regiment scouted the area near the North Mithril Mine before dark and did not see a headhunter team of more than five people. Therefore, Roy did not send an assassin team to clear the nearby mountains. headhunter.

The map on his desk has been filled with various annotations, symbols and lines drawn by Roy.

Roy is preparing to make a detailed marching plan for the mine guards from the North Mithril Mine to the Skyfall Canyon.

He was learning to manage the army while forming a mine guard team. When he crossed the Castim Mountains, Roy realized how important it was to make a detailed march plan for an army of thousands of people.

Fortunately, Roy was very familiar with this area, and there were three black iron mines on the way that could be used as supply points. As long as Roy connected these points, a marching route map would appear on the paper.

Sabrina and Mu Lin were not there, and even Moira didn't come running over.

Everyone is seizing the time to rest. The mine guard will set off from the North Mithril Mine tomorrow morning. The continuous accelerated march these days is a test for all the elf warriors of the mine guard.

The lamp in front of the table was not bright enough. Roy stretched out a finger, and a divine light appeared on his fingertip.

The room suddenly became a little brighter. Roy held a quill in his hand and drew another connecting line on the map.

The light imprinted the shadow of his hand and quill on the map. His eyes fell on the edge of the wilderness, and he pursed his lips and looked at this triangle area. This is the northern end of the Sudarso Mountains, the starting point of the southern mountains of the Gasai Mountains, and It is on the eastern edge of the wilderness. Walking westward from the wilderness, you can reach the Kaltim Mountains.

If there is a heart of the Pagisto Plateau, this point is undoubtedly the center of the Pagisto Plateau.

Roy hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but circle this point. He didn't even know why he did this...

There was a knock on the door.

‘Tuk-tuk-tuk…’

Roy raised his head and saw Qian Ning pushing open the door and walking in with a cup of steaming fruit tea.

She was wearing a low-cut long skirt. She couldn't understand why her round shoulders and white skin were exposed in such a cold weather. They even glowed like pearls under the light. Miss Qian Ning was A mixed-blood elf beauty, especially with the temperament of a noble lady...

This kind of waist-cinching long skirt is also very special. In Roy's opinion... it's like the colored paper wrapped with flowers in a flower shop.

Therefore, you can always see different beautiful scenery in the center of the colored paper.

It's like two attractive apples covered with water droplets in a basket. They may be held on top. When you lean down, the two apples can easily roll out of the basket...

She walked up to Roy, and under Roy's surprised gaze, she sat down opposite him and spread out the hem of her long skirt, like a blooming yellow rose.

Two cups of warm fruit tea were placed on the table, but no one would pay attention to them at this time.

"Are those Headhunter prisoners going to stay?"

Just when Roy felt a little embarrassed, Miss Channing asked casually, she even left out the word 'boss'.

"I plan to lock them up for a period of time to make them understand that only labor can maintain the dignity of normal mining slaves. When they can deeply understand the meaning of this sentence, let them enter the mines to mine. Of course, management needs to be appropriate. Be strict.”

Roy expressed his thoughts, but the appetite of the northern mithril mine could not eat 800 Headhunter prisoners of war.

So Roy hesitated and added:

"How about I leave some mixed-blood elf warriors to help you complete this matter? If I leave this matter to you... do you want to try it?"

A moment ago, Miss Qian Ning was still thinking about how to make the atmosphere more ambiguous.

But now she straightened her slender waist, and her eyes showed the expression of a shrewd manager. Her blue eyes kept thinking, and besides hesitation and anxiety, there was also expectation and excitement...

Roy saw something in Channing's eyes, she was born to be a manager.

The North Mithril Mine and the South Mithril Mine will be handed over to Miss Qian Ning for the time being. Not only that, these 800 Headhunter prisoners of war will also be handed over to Miss Qian Ning, so that she can find ways to polish off the edges of these prisoners of war.

"Boss, I want to try it!"

Miss Qian Ning's tone was full of challenges and expectations for the unknown. After the mist in her eyes disappeared, they became sparkling under the divine glimmer.

…

Captain Herrick led five thousand rebel soldiers and entered the northern wilderness from the North Wind Canyon. The snow-covered wilderness in front of him was dotted with mounds.

In these wilderness mounds, there are often small groups of beasts, most of which are groups of low-level monsters such as wind wolves and red-faced hyenas.

The value of their fur is not high, but they are extremely vigilant, and they gather in groups. When they see a large number of mixed-blood elf warriors appearing, they immediately pick up their tails and run away...

Entering this wilderness, it was already difficult for the mixed-blood elf warriors to find edible berries in the wild.

However, Captain Helic showed no concern.

This time entering the northern wilderness, the mixed elf warriors each carried a month's supply of elf biscuits.

They didn't even conduct a detailed reconnaissance of the southern part of the northern wilderness. They went straight north and climbed dozens of large and small mounds, like a sharp knife inserted into the headhunter community.

In fact, the plateau headhunter tribes in the northern wilderness also have unspeakable hardships. In order not to compete with each other for living resources, the headhunter communities live in scattered places in the northern wilderness.

Another more important thing is that almost all of the most elite warriors among this group of headhunters died in the Gazi Mountains and the Kartim Mountains.

In two battles, Captain Herrick and Roy killed 70% of these headhunters and captured some of them. In fact, there were not many headhunters who actually escaped back to the northern wilderness, and many of the headhunters who escaped were from the same tribe. of.

So when the rebel soldiers marched all the way north in the northern wilderness... and drove straight in, these groups of headhunters were unable to respond for a while.

This group of rebel fighters rushed directly outside a group of headhunters.

Captain Herrick launched an exploratory attack and easily crushed this group of just over a hundred headhunters.

The battle process was very simple, and no valuable loot was even captured.

It's just that it's a bit difficult to bury the bodies and burn down the community shacks...

When the first thick billowing smoke column rose in the northern wilderness, the rebel army led by Captain Herrick had officially declared to the headhunters in this northern wilderness:

'The mixed-blood elves are coming...'
