Human Online Survival [Infrastructure]

Although the production method of the intermediate magic contract book is more than five times more complicated than that of the primary magic contract book, with the joint efforts of Master Hall, Professor Liu and others, they improved the production method the next afternoon .

There is only one thing, that is, although they have learned how to make magic contracts, they still have no way to start mass production immediately.

——Because they discovered that there are not so many magic materials available in the market for the time being, especially mandrakes.

Mandrakes are only found in the dwarf tribe of Audley City, but it is said that this dwarf tribe just had a coup some time ago, which caused more than half of the manor planted with Mandrakes to be destroyed, so the Mandrakes on the market are now Not only has the price soared, but it is basically impossible to buy it in Casta City and Laian City.

Obviously this plan is progressing so smoothly, but it is stuck at the last step.

Xia Pengyue and the others are really worried these days.

At this time, the young dwarves put on their costumes at the slave resettlement site in the west of Tahe Village.

The middle-aged dwarf next to him couldn't help but said, "Master, do you really stop thinking about it?"

Hearing this, the young dwarf stopped buttoning his button. He turned his head and looked at the person who spoke: "I've thought it through very clearly."

"Since the current Casta City can wipe out the [-] orc army in one go, it should be easier for us to regain the position of patriarch."

"Although these earthlings are more insidious and cunning than we imagined, I heard that they are preparing to sign a magic contract with the strong in Tahe Village. Since they dare to sign a magic contract, it is enough to prove that they still have a bottom line. As long as you make a promise, you will definitely do it.”

"The main thing is, what other options do we have now?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man fell silent.

It was at this time that the young dwarf buttoned the last button.

"And the conditions we offered are very generous, and those people on Earth will definitely agree to help us."

After finishing speaking, he faced the rising sun and stepped out of the room confidently with expectations for the future.

Unexpectedly, the next second, they were directly stopped outside Xia Pengyue's office.

The young dwarf and others: "..."

The young dwarf straightened his expensive clothes, and tried to tell the guards who stopped him that he was a decent person.

"We are here to find Your Excellency Xia Pengyue."

Unexpectedly, the guard didn't even look at his clothes, he just raised his chin and pointed to the side: "Those people are all here to find Master Xia."

The young dwarf turned his head under his chin and saw that the two rows of seats in the corridor next to him were already full of people.

The most important thing is that they are all wearing luxurious clothes.

And he knows all these people, for example, the first one on the left - she is obviously a sweeping aunt in the West District, and she can't be more kind in dealing with people on weekdays, but now she is sitting there, and the aura around her has already overwhelmed him Almost out of breath.

And the one on the right, if he remembered correctly, he should be the head chef in the kitchen, but isn't he squinting?Why now his eyes are bigger than his thumb, and his aura is actually comparable to that of Mrs. Sweeper.

Not to mention others.

A bad thought suddenly came to the young dwarf's mind, that is, whether the reason why these people appeared here was for the same purpose as him.

At this time, several guards brought a bunch of chairs over. The guard saw it and said, "Okay, you guys wait here first. After Lord Xia sees them, he will see you."

The young dwarf lost all desire to talk to those people.

He sat down on the chair as he said, and watched the people in front of him come in and out, and his heart also lifted.

It wasn't until two hours later that it was finally their turn.

They stood up immediately and followed the guards into Xia Pengyue's office.

As soon as he sat down, the young dwarf couldn't wait to say: "Your Excellency Xia Pengyue, I am..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Xia Pengyue just glanced at his clothes, and interrupted him directly: "Are you also here for help?"

The young dwarf was taken aback: "...Yes, I am..."

Xia Pengyue turned over on the table: "Okay, let's fill out the form!"

Young dwarf: "..."

He tried to finish the sentence: "...I am..."

Xia Pengyue interrupted him again: "I know, because you were in trouble, you were forced to hide your name and hide in Tahe Village. Now that you find that Tahe Village is strong, you want to use the power of Tahe Village to solve your problems. trouble, right?"

Young dwarf: "..."

"Okay, let's fill out the form."

Xia Pengyue skillfully handed the blank form he found to the young dwarf. His movements were so skillful that he didn't look like Mr. Xia that the guards were talking about, but like a bank teller.

No way, although they had expected it, with their aura of the protagonist—mainly the aura of the protagonist on Chi Xian’s head, according to the nature of the urine, there must be capable people hidden in the batch of slaves they bought. When they were free, they often guessed who the hidden capable person would be.

At that time, he guessed it was Aunt Sweeper, because she was so perfect, whenever anyone met her, she always had a smile on her face.

Chen Taining guessed that it was the chef in charge, because he can cook all kinds of dishes, including some dishes that are only circulated among the nobles.

Dugu guessed that it was the young dwarves, because he and several dwarves got together every other day to form small groups.

Liang Hongjun guessed that it was a brother in charge of picking up eggs in the chicken farm...

For this reason, they each took a month's dividends as a bet on who would guess correctly in the end.

But they never expected that there were far more than one capable person hidden in this group of slaves.

They all guessed right.

As a result, Xia Pengyue was forced to work part-time as a bank teller.

Young dwarf: "..."

He subconsciously took the list, and saw that the name, gender, hometown, cultivation level, troubles encountered, needs, and what benefits Tahe Village could get from it were written on it in sequence...

It can be said to be very clear and straightforward.

The young dwarf subconsciously looked up at the stack of lists in Xia Pengyue's hand.

In other words, he guessed correctly, those people who were sitting outside just came to Xia Pengyue for help.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, picked up the pen beside him and started writing on the list.

Name: Holmes Bader

Sex: Male

……

It wasn't until 10 minutes later that he finally finished writing.

He quickly handed the list to Xia Pengyue.

Xia Pengyue took the list and put it directly at the end of the pile of lists before he can give you an answer. "

Holmes knew that things were going in a bad direction as he expected.

After all, no matter how strong Tahe Village is now, it is impossible to take care of so many of them at the same time.

Because there are so many people seeking help from them now, it is very likely that Tahe Village will choose who to help first according to the order in which they seek help.

On this point, since Xia Pengyue didn't even look at it, he just put his list at the bottom.

If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have hesitated for so long.

Holmes regretted it.

So he immediately said: "Lord Xia, listen to me, as long as you are willing to help me, I can lead our entire dwarf tribe in Audley City to join Tahe Village."

He felt that Tahe Village would definitely not refuse such a good offer.

"There are 1 people in our dwarf tribe."

Xia Pengyue sighed lightly.

He didn't find it strange that Holmes behaved like this, because everyone who came in before did it.

So he pulled out a list with ease, and said: "This is Countess Martha of Augustus City, she said that as long as we help her kill Augustus who slandered her as a dark cultist and caused the tragic death of her family Bishop of the city, and to help 'rehabilitate' her reputation, dedicate the entire city of Augustus to us."

"By the way, the population of Augustus City is twice that of Casta City."

Holmes: "..."

Holmes immediately said: "Augustus City are ordinary people, how can they compare with our dwarf tribe in Audley City? The dwarves in our tribe are all masters of mining. We once helped Audley City I have found eight iron mines, two gold mines, and five silver mines..."

Xia Pengyue: "We don't need this, after all we have the advanced technology of the earth."

He spread his hands together: "Otherwise, how do you think the six iron mines and two copper mines under the name of Tahe Village came from?"

Holmes: "...the dwarves in our tribe are all good blacksmiths, and the weapons they forge are even exported to the western part of the empire. Don't you want to fight against the Holy See? With us, you don't have to worry about lack of weapons anymore."

Xia Pengyue: "...We don't need this, because we have enough weapons now. After we have established a foothold on Oscontinent, we are going to switch to hot weapons... I guess you don't know What are hot weapons... In short, we no longer need ordinary cold weapons."

Holmes: "..."

He tried to find other points that could bring benefits to Tahe Village to persuade Xia Pengyue, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't think of any good points.

You must know that these people on earth know at a glance that they are a group of masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles. Now that he can't give them what they want, how can they help him!

Thinking of this, Holmes' heart immediately turned cold.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Xia Pengyue suddenly said: "Wait, what did you say your tribe's name was?"

Holmes replied subconsciously: "The dwarf tribe of Audley City."

Xia Pengyue's eyes lit up instantly: "Audley City? Is it because your tribe is good at growing mandrakes?"

Holmes: "Yes."

Xia Peng said anxiously: "Then after your tribe harvests the mandrakes, you probably won't sell all of them at once."

As if realizing something, Holmes' heart was pounding instantly: "No, we usually look at the market and leave a quarter to a fifth of the weight until the next year before the mandrake is harvested. Resell."

Without saying a word, Xia Pengyue directly picked up his list: "Follow me."

What is it is that there is no doubt and no way out, and it takes no effort to get it, that's it.

In the meeting room, after listening to Xia Pengyue's words, the eyes of Du Gu and the others lit up.

But before that, they had to know what kind of trouble Holmes was in.

They immediately took Holmes's list and looked at it.

In short, Holmes was originally the young patriarch of the dwarf tribe in Audley City, but his uncle has always been eyeing the position of patriarch.

Just six months ago, his father passed away suddenly.

Originally, after his father died, he should inherit the position of patriarch.

But his uncle rebelled on the day his father was buried.

Originally, he was able to put down the rebellion smoothly, but he did not expect his uncle to collude with the city lord of Audley City. Under the attack of the city guards of Audley City, they were quickly defeated.

If his father's men hadn't tried their best to teleport him away, he might have been killed by his uncle at that time.

Is this Audley City again?

Xia Pengyue and the others frowned.

The reason for saying this is because when the Church of Casta City intended to collude with the Church of Godslayer to rebel, it was Lancelot, the vice-bishop of Audley City, who stepped in and wanted to kill them.

Although his final fate was split in half by Chi God, and the elites of the Audley City church he brought were also killed by them...

etc--

The elite of the church in Audley City have been slaughtered.

In other words, the strength of the church in Audley City has not recovered in all likelihood.

Rounding it up, Audley City should still be in a state of defense emptiness.

Xia Pengyue: "I remember that Audley City is an independent city just like Laian City."

The so-called independent city means that this city was once occupied by orcs, and was later recovered. All the power of the city belongs to the person who recovered it within 20 years, and the empire only has nominal sovereignty.

Since it is an independent city, of course whoever has the biggest fist can replace it.

The most important thing is that this Audley City is right next to Casta City.

Dugu and the others instantly connected to his brainwaves, and they immediately turned to look at Holmes:

"So your tribe should still be in an alliance with Audley City, right?"

Holmes nodded subconsciously: "That's right."

Xia Pengyue and the others looked at each other and immediately smiled.

They said, "We can help you."

Holmes' eyes lit up instantly.

Du Gu: "But, the grievance between you and your uncle is not enough to be a reason for us to send troops to help you!"

Holmes: "..."

His uncle robbed him of the position of patriarch. Isn't it a matter of course for him to send troops to take back the position of patriarch now?

Xia Pengyue: "Let's think about it for you... How did you say your father died?"

Holmes: "Suddenly ill..."

Xia Pengyue interrupted him directly: "No, your father was poisoned to death by your uncle."

Holmes: "???"

Before he came back to his senses, Liang Hongjun followed up and said: "You are so old, you should already have a wife and lover, right?"

Holmes, who was only eighteen years old and still a big boy: "..."

Before he could speak, Liang Hongjun clapped his hands suddenly: "Very well, after your uncle snatched your position as patriarch, he also took over your fiancée and twelve lovers, and he humiliated you day and night."

Holmes, who had already put on thirteen green hats before becoming a man: "..."

Chen Taining then asked again: "When your uncle rebelled, your ancestral tomb...that is, your father's tomb, was it affected?"

Holmes subconsciously said, "Yes."

Chen Taining: "Very well, it's fine that your uncle rebelled, but after he succeeded, he dug up your ancestral grave and threw the bones of your father and grandfather into the wilderness."

Holmes: "..."

Do you still remember, those are his own uncles, they are an ancestor!

Then he saw Xia Pengyue and others discussing in a low voice: "Enough."

"Should be enough."

"it is good."

Xia Peng said with a smile: "Now, we have a reason to send troops to attack Audley City."

Send troops to attack Audley City?

Didn't you help him regain the position of patriarch...

Holmes suddenly understood why Xia Pengyue asked him one more question, whether their tribe is still an alliance with Audley City now.

Because his uncle had done so many outrageous things, they had every reason to send troops to destroy him and his allies by the way.

Thinking of this, Holmes' fingers dangling by his side couldn't help but tremble.

He guessed right.

Earthlings are indeed insidious and cunning!

But what's the matter with being inexplicably cool?
