Chapter 176 Return of the Protagonist

Yun Shen was flipping through the summary report submitted jointly by Fan Tianlan and Takla, when suddenly there was a bang in his room, and then it sounded like something had fallen down, Yun Shen stopped his movements and turned his head to look over .

Fan Tianlan appeared at the door of his room, holding a neatly broken piece of wood in his hand, and said to Yun Shen, "The foot of the bed is broken."

The simple wooden bed was made in less than three months, using new materials felled last year.Fan Tianlan said nonchalantly, "I'll go and change one."

"...It doesn't matter." Yun Shen said, Melavia just slept on it all night, he hasn't told Tianlan about it yet, and obviously the young man's sense of territory doesn't need to be reminded by others, it seems that he is right Meravia's attitude will not improve in a short time.It is better to let this kind of thing take its course before the opportunity comes, Yun Shen silently turned his head back and returned his attention to the report.

"Tian Lan, what do you think of this war?"

Fan Tianlan put the foot of the bed that he chopped off with his bare hands in the corner, walked to Yunshen and sat down, "At least our threat in the northeast has been lifted, and the Aoge tribe will not have any spare power within five years. The tribe has plundered too much, and it is almost impossible to restore the original strength."

"However, this also exposed part of our hole cards." Yun Shen said, judging from some aspects mentioned in the report, the orcs on the battlefield were no longer deeply impressed by these firearms.

"This is necessary." Fan Tianlan said, "The deal proposed by the strong is more likely to be accepted."

Yun Shen tapped the paper of the report, "What if one day they think we are invaders because of this? No one will believe that a neighbor prepares weapons of mass destruction far superior to others in order to live in peace with others."

"We will have many enemies in the future." Fan Tianlan said calmly.

Yun Shen laughed, "This reason can only convince ourselves."

"It's a fact. They also have the option of not being our enemy," Fan Tianlan said. "That's obviously easier."

"This is indeed easier. If we can make them find the benefits of cooperation more obvious and voluntarily form an alliance with us and become a community of interests, the so-called threats will instead become a guarantee. Maybe we need more means to strengthen our relationship with Sachel , " Having said that, Yun Shen paused, "There is also the Fox family. What can they trade with us?"

"Except for iron and coal, what they can provide is similar to that of Sasheer. There is a certain degree of food cultivation, and the output is also very low. We need some of their livestock and fur, as well as medicinal herbs, but the medicinal properties have not yet been identified by pharmacists and elves. "Fan Tianlan said that according to the information obtained by the reserve team during this period, "you can send another team to investigate the surrounding resources, and they will not be uncooperative."

As long as there is a plausible reason, the Fox Clan will indeed not prevent a small group of humans from operating in their own territory. However, resource exploration is a long-term process. Yun Shen has found half of what he has detected. Whether there are available resources is still unknown, and there is no rush to reserve raw material bases, not to mention that there is still a Sasheer between them and the Fox Clan.

"We will use some iron tools to test it first, and then consider the next step based on the response." Yun Shen said, "But there is only a pontoon bridge on the river to maintain the traffic on both sides of the river is a problem." The rainy season will come soon, and once the existing three pontoon bridges are flooded If it is destroyed, the relationship with the Fox tribe will be delayed until next year to develop.

"Can our engineering team handle this kind of project?" Fan Tianlan asked.

"If it's a fixed bridge, we don't have the ability yet," Yun Shen said, "but if we just improve the floating structure of the pontoon bridge and strengthen its main body strength, then there is no big problem."

Fan Tianlan said: "I will negotiate this matter with Sachel and the chief of the Fox Clan."

Yun Shen nodded, "We can't just contribute to this matter. By the way, we can take a look at the way the three races will cooperate in the future. In terms of negotiations, I will ask Li Hong to take someone with you."

Fan Tianlan stood up, "I'm going to prepare now."

"Wait." Yun Shen stopped him, "Tian Lan, where did you arrange the head of the Tiger Clan?"

"No. 07, Sixth Avenue, East District."

Yun Shen was a little surprised. Although the project has not really been completed, the houses in the East District are indeed ready to use, just the address——"Isn't that your dormitory?"

"That's the most suitable place." Fan Tianlan said, "Since he's not useful yet, there's no need to waste too much manpower to look after him."

The dormitory of the reserve team is regularly staffed and guarded, and it can indeed take care of the captives. Even Meravia and the elf Ludwig live in that direction, so there will be no problem if you think about it. Thinking of one thing, "Tianlan, the third civil engineering team said that they can install part of the house for you first. The players who will play this time will be selected first. Do you want to make a decision first?"

"No need." Fan Tianlan said immediately, Yun Shen looked up at him, and he said in a low voice, "Since I am the captain, I will leave it to the final decision." After a pause, he asked, "Or, let me disturb you gone?"

"No, I thought you guys might prefer your personal space..." Yun Shen looked at the broken bed leg by the wall and coughed lightly, "Well, since the bed is broken, let's fix it."

Fan Tianlan responded, scooped it up and walked out. Only when he closed the door did a faint, almost invisible smile appear on the corner of his mouth.

Ogg thought about any treatment he might encounter, but he didn't have this kind of treatment: the Far East magician who appointed him and transferred him to this human settlement abandoned him, and had no intention of interviewing him at all.Although as a prisoner, Ogg received neither good nor good treatment. He could live in a separate room, and although he lacked meat and meat for three meals a day, he could still fill his stomach. He didn't despise him, and he didn't take him seriously either.All in all, he doesn't get any special treatment, but that's what makes it unnerving.

Of course Ogg wanted to escape. The terrain along the way has been memorized in his mind. He has not suffered any serious injuries in the war. tight.He has not escaped so far not because of the long and rough journey and shameful failure, but because before he was imprisoned, a black-haired human came up to him, "I killed that old man who used poison."

Without waiting for Ogg to say anything, he continued, "Want to know how I did it?"

The black-haired human scooped up a stone, placed it on the other side of the road at least [-] paces away, bent down to set up a long metal pipe with a wooden handle, and with a crisp sound that seemed to be heard before, that Something shot out from a pipe, splitting a distant rock into two pieces of different sizes.Then the human stood up and walked to his side, and continued in a lingua franca he was not used to hearing: "Got it? If you want to leave, we will do this," he made a gesture, "bang your head too With a bang, it shattered."

So Ogg could only wait impatiently for what the Far Eastern magician wanted to do with him.He seldom comes into contact with humans except during the autumn wind, and his power has never reached the southwestern border of the empire. He knew that a group of humans migrated here, but he didn't know that there was an astonishing Far Eastern magician among them. The silver-haired strength talents all obeyed him.

Being imprisoned in a small space, with only three chances to leave temporarily every day, this is very uncomfortable for the tiger people who are used to a wide territory, and during the long and difficult time trapped in a small room, he can't restrain himself from going out. Recall the utter defeat, the unheard-of fighting style...and the unprecedented humiliation.

Failure is a disgrace that can only be repaid with more blood.For Ogg, pride is no longer a habit but an instinct, but at least he hasn't lost his mind, blaming others for all his mistakes, and then comforting his feelings with non-stop assumptions.Everything is possible only if he survives. Ogg thinks that the Far Eastern magician who has never seen him should not intend to kill him. After all, they have never had a direct conflict of interest. He is locked here, but he will not always shut down.

So, what does the sorcerer want from him?

Auger remembered what he had seen when he came.

At that time, he was amazed at the scale and development of this human settlement. He learned of the news of this human migration in the spring of this year. No matter how calculated, it took them no more than a year to arrive and settle in Sacher's territory, and They are all mountain tribes, with no more value than labor.Although there are two known strength talents, if they don't bring their own people and knights, what will they do?

He never thought that he would see a human city that was under construction and had already reached a considerable scale.

A large area of ​​land has been reclaimed and planted in the surrounding area. Unnamed crops grow densely in neat and orderly fields. Some of the ears are huge like he has never seen before. The road is straight and wide, flat and solid, along the man-made ditches Extending along the side of the road, clear water flows in it, and at the end of the road, he saw a huge building like a castle. He thought it should be the residence of Far Eastern magicians, but the people who ran out of those open rooms There are groups of human teenagers and youths, and there are even quite a few women among them.They rushed towards the humans who were escorting him, and surrounded them noisily with other humans waiting on the roadside.

Ogg, who was striking in appearance, was also caught in it and received the attention of many eyes. Only then did he thank the humans who took him away from the crowd, and then he was locked up.

The Far East magician did not prevent him from seeing all this, and Ogg now has enough time to think.He really couldn't understand how Scar, who is also the patriarch, would agree with a group of humans to build a city next to his tribe. Even in the first few years, those humans would provide them with food and other things as agreed. When they built the city defense, What about after training the army?How do a tribe and a permanent human city stand up against each other?

Unless this city was built for Sacher, because Scar also had the same ambition to become a king on his own... Then why should Scar participate in the struggle for the throne?Moreover, the construction of such a city requires not only tens of thousands of slaves, but also a large number of skilled stonemasons, carpenters and human erudites. These are not something that a tribe can afford, even if Sahel unites Sahir .Ogg also imagined a city of his own, but soon gave up because it was too difficult to gather the conditions.

Or there is an unimaginable possibility that the construction of this city did not actually get Sacher's consent. The "Far East Magician" comes from the Far East, and does not belong to either side of the two human countries that are at war—those who are gifted with such power should be kept in the palace.No matter why the Far Eastern magician chose this place to build his fortress, there is no possibility of peaceful coexistence with Sachel in the future.

The city isn't complete yet, and Far Warlocks have formidable power to strike their opponents from a distance, and a small army.He doesn't necessarily need strength, but he should need an ally, Ogg thought.

He knew why the Far East magician wanted to keep him, but left him idle.

To be honest, as a high-ranking person, Ogg's thinking is very normal, even considered wise, but Yun Shen is destined to be different from him.If it was true that Yun Shen refrigerated Ogg on purpose in the first place, now he has almost forgotten about the Tiger Clan chief.Although the first battle of the reserve team was memorable, it only took a few days and the number of people was not large. It was not even comparable to the impact that the second engineering team sent to dig trenches and build walls for the Wolf Fox Tribe had on the construction of the settlement.The focus of Yunshen's life has always been on the construction of settlements—or it should not be called settlements now. After the almost endless day and night construction of everyone since spring, this place has become a city that can be clearly seen The town with this pattern can be regarded as a medium-sized city by the standards of this world.

The total area of ​​the basin is 8.87 square kilometers. Except for an inflow channel and a lake with a water surface area of ​​0.75 square kilometers in summer, 60% of the available land has been initially developed, of which 1500 mu of agricultural land has been planted with food-based crops to varying degrees. , brick kilns, cement kilns and other facilities are arranged on the edge of the basin or on the hilly platform according to the location, and the main urban area is located in the middle and rear of the basin, with a planned area of ​​2.5 square kilometers and a construction area of ​​more than 10000 square meters. The school is the center, the hospital, the cafeteria, the offices of various departments, the large conference room, and the residence of the magician, which is the real core in almost everyone's mind, are arranged in a semi-circular shape around the school, while the residential area is arranged in two wings, and the mechanical workshop It is arranged in a direction relatively close to the power plant, and far away from it is the military workshop that is almost embedded in the mountain wall. The studio was almost as spacious, and behind the mountain was the testing ground.

Schools and hospitals were the first to be built, and the interior decoration is also the most perfect, but the current frequency of use is not very high, and Yunshen's residence has been translated for a certain distance from the past, and then added a few functional rooms. The reserve team of the engineering team and the officially listed Ministry of Agriculture are all nearby, separated from Yunshen's residence by transplanted trees. Except for the "very few people" who are interviewed or can directly enter, few people will bother that building. Xiaobai's house is quiet, not to mention that the magician is not there most of the day.

The war with the Tiger Clan was like an episode, occupying only one row on Yunshen's astonishingly long schedule, and the head of the Tiger Clan was nothing more than a memo.The training of the reserve team is still going on, but this experience has also slightly changed the training form. Sasheer and Heckle seem to have some plans for the Tiger Clan, but they have little to do with this side.Fan Tianlan handed over most of the work of the reserve team to Takla. His natural advantages made him Yunshen's most important assistant, giving him reliable support for his busy work recently.

But Yunshen's work is getting more and more complicated, and the reason why even the patriarch of the Tiger Clan has forgotten about his excellent memory is that the construction progress of the power plant is ahead of schedule, and the installation is imminent.

While Yun Shen was going back and forth between the office and the construction site, Scar, who hadn’t heard from him for a long time, was leading 150 werewolf knights to ambush at the edge of the forest. Looking at the tribal village with high sentries and giant wooden fences in the distance, he held up One hand, clenched into a fist.

The werewolf knights lowered their bodies one after another.

"Ready, my pack?" Skaggin's eyes flashed, his canines grinned menacingly, "Follow me!"
