Chapter 521 Arrangements by All Parties

Normally speaking, after completing the errands, he would have nothing to do for the time being.

At that time, Wang Pengfei was in a trance, but suddenly Zhou Xu called his name.

After coming to his senses, he was stunned on the spot.

Then he immediately shook his head wildly like a rattle.

However, it was useless even if he shook his brains evenly.

Zhou Xu is a person who will definitely ask for your opinions and thoughts if there is something that can be discussed, otherwise it means that the matter is not negotiable.

Wang Pengfei was also aware of this character.

But what can he do? He is afraid!

Damn, he's going to the battlefield! And this time their king isn't around, so he can't even hug anyone he wants. If he's not careful, he might die right there. Who wouldn't be afraid?!

"My lord, I am your personal attendant, so I must follow you! Otherwise, who will help you every day?"

Wang Pengfei obviously wanted to make a last-ditch effort and directly brought out the excuse that Zhou Xu had used to bring him to the front line.

But Zhou Xu didn't buy it at all.

"It's okay, just do your best, you don't have to worry about me."

Wang Pengfei's face turned pale in an instant.

Being by Zhou Xu's side, to put it bluntly, he just helped to sort out documents and run errands every day, and occasionally chatted with their king. Their king would find inspiration while chatting with him.

In fact, Wang Pengfei himself knew very well that anyone else could do the job he was doing. The only difference was that their efficiency was lower because they didn't know many words.

At the same time, Wang Pengfei couldn't help but think a lot about why their king insisted on letting him be the military supervisor, and inevitably had some bad thoughts during that time.

[Could it be that the king wants me to die? ]

As this thought came to his mind, Wang Pengfei's heart suddenly skipped a beat and his face turned even paler.

Seeing Wang Pengfei's expression that said 'It's over, Barbie Q', Zhou Xu was speechless, but he still tried to comfort him.

"Relax, you are just a supervisor, not a charge. Your duty is to observe the ratmen troops carefully. After all, you are a time traveler, and your perspective is different from others. I want you to see what the ratmen are like, and then come back and report to me."

Having said that, Zhou Xu added another sentence.

"As for safety, Chongshan will protect you."

Zhou Xu's words made Wang Pengfei feel greatly relieved.

When he realized that he seemed to have misunderstood their king, the sadness on his face diminished a little.

Although he was still not happy about it, he knew that he had no choice but to go.

"Okay, go down and get ready."

"yes."

Wang Pengfei responded sullenly and left.

After Wang Pengfei left, Zhou Xu ordered Li Ce to go to the plains and call over Diak, the leader of the Centaur tribe. At the same time, he could also inform Drogo and Silk, who were also stationed at the border of the plains, of his reward.

The terrain of this rainforest is complex and difficult to navigate, so Li Ce followed Zhou Xu's order and went directly to Soros to borrow a Velociraptor for transportation.

Although Li Ce was an excellent rider, he had only ridden a horse and had never ridden a velociraptor. The two were different in nature. Li Ce lacked experience, so it was naturally impossible for him to ride one himself at this moment. Instead, he asked Soros to dispatch a velociraptor to take him out.

The velociraptor has poor physical strength and its load-bearing capacity is also average. The space on its back is limited, so it is basically ridden alone. Carrying one more person will have a great impact.

However, no matter how great the impact was, it was definitely faster than walking. Plus, there was no need to fight at the moment, so he just traveled normally. Nothing went wrong along the way, and Li Ce arrived at the front-line camp on the plain smoothly.

Looking at the velociraptor who brought Li Ce out, the soldiers on the front line, including Diak, Drogo and Silk, couldn't help but take a few more glances.

It’s not that they haven’t seen the velociraptors before, but they have not yet digested the news that the Lizardmen have surrendered to them and submitted to their Great Zhou. They feel it’s a bit unreal.

During this period, Silk didn't actually have much thought about this matter.

In this battle with the Lizardmen, they have killed many Lizardmen. Even Gruul, the Lizardmen leader who invaded their world and destroyed their elven village, has died under Zhou Chongshan's gun.

Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. The elves themselves are not a bloodthirsty race, and they will not exterminate an entire clan or kill an entire family at will.

When the killing reached this point and the Lizardmen had already surrendered, Silk did not have any extreme thoughts of killing them all.

He had long since gotten over his hatred, and the most important thing for him now was to allow the existing tribesmen to live better and allow their ethnic group to continue.

Li Ce came here on orders and did not dare to delay. After quickly informing Drogo and King Silk of the reward given to them, he turned around and found Diak, the leader of the Centaur tribe.

Although Li Ce's return trip had the help of a velociraptor, which improved his mobility, it would still take some time. Zhou Xu certainly had no plans to be idle during this time.

He gave an order to collect the sharp crystals that had been collected from the crystal mine. He also asked people to recover the crystal weapons that were scattered all over the battlefield and load them all onto trucks.

He planned to take these crystal weapons back with him when the energy channel opened next time.

They needed to study it carefully to see if they could smelt special metals so that they could forge magic weapons.

As of now, the production of acerite here is not small. Once this new metal and new weapons are successfully developed and used to arm the large army of lizardmen in the south, it will be enough to greatly increase the strength of the lizardmen. At the very least, they will be able to withstand the offensive from the ratmen.

After he finished arranging the matter of the sharp stone, Li Ce also came over with Diak.

"Diak, meet the king!"

"No need to be polite, Patriarch."

After that, Zhou Xu didn't waste any words and quickly explained the current situation of the lizardmen and the ratmen in the south.

Although Diak and his men had already learned about the Lizardmen's surrender long before, it felt different when they heard it from Zhou Xu in person.

The tribal groups living in this era were very accepting of annexation.

Just like how Zhou Chongshan was able to accept Li Ce who once destroyed their tribe.

From their perspective, everyone is fighting for survival, which is nothing to say. After defeating the opponent, they annex the opponent in order to enhance their own strength and allow themselves to survive better in this era. This is a natural practice.

Although the Centaurs headed by Diak were allies of the Great Zhou, they were still outsiders in the final analysis. The incorporation of the Lizardmen was an internal affair of the Great Zhou, so naturally he had nothing to say.

Zhou Xu's intention at this moment was very clear, that is, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the threat from the rat people. Even if he could not completely wipe them out, he had to defeat them at least.

Otherwise, they may not have peace in the future.

Diak basically agreed with Zhou Xu's statement.

As they are in this world, they naturally know what kind of people those ratmen are, and if there is a chance to get rid of them, they will definitely get rid of them.

"Your Majesty, we, the Centaurs, are willing to send troops to help you, but before that, I want to take my people to settle down and rest for a while."

"Of course you can. Counting the days, the energy channel should be open in a few days. Then you and the Centaurs will go back with me. I will never break my promise to you!"
