Hope Village.
It was already dark, and most of the professionals had returned to the territory from outside one after another.
Recently, the residents of the territory have been coming back later and later, and everyone is accumulating their final contribution points.
Therefore, after they came back, they basically went straight to the lord's mansion and quickly exchanged their gains of the day.
And another group, such as territory soldiers, went straight to the training camp after dinner.
Don't think they don't know. In addition to the staff of the Lord's Mansion, many new local residents are also targeting the location of the territory soldiers.
The levels of these local residents are higher than theirs, and many of them are even mid-level professionals. In this case, if they don't want to be suppressed by the local residents after they enter the military camp, they can only work hard to catch up.
Zhou Zhengping, Li Xingteng and other captains of the soldier teams thought so too. What should they do if their level is too low and they are still not as good as the soldiers when new members join the team in the future?
Of course, the most important point is that they are not yet the official captains of the soldier team. If they don’t work harder, they may be overtaken by others.
"The new mercenaries have been working too hard recently, and the pressure is a bit great!" On the way, Li Xingteng couldn't help but pull Zhou Zhengping aside and said.
...
...
Those who came from other territories are all kings of rolls!
In fact, Li Xingteng understood this feeling very well, because if they were mercenaries in their original territory, they would most likely be mercenaries for the rest of their lives. The only ladder to advancement was to move from a smaller territory to a larger one, and then look for those tiny opportunities to get a class upgrade.
But in Hope Village, you can get it as long as you work hard.
Even though the territory is small now, it holds huge rewards in the long run.
No matter who you are, you will want to give it a try.
"They have an advantage in level, but we also have a big advantage in contribution. If they can reach it before us, it means we are really inferior to them, and it is what they deserve." Compared with Li Xingteng, Zhou Zhengping seems much more Buddhist.
Of course, he stands on a different standpoint.
This territory belongs to his daughter. The more capable people there are, the better it will be for the territory, and his daughter will also be more relaxed. Naturally, he hopes that there will be more such situations.
Li Xingteng looked at Zhou Zhengping and glanced at him sideways, "What you said does make sense."
Anyway, after what happened last time, he was sure of one thing: there was definitely someone in Zhou Zhengping's family who was a lord.
He had never doubted it before because this family was so low-key.
In addition, I think that if he is really the lord and wants to hide his identity, why doesn't he leave the territory first and wait for someone to come in before coming in? Wouldn't it be better if there is no trace at all?
Therefore, he really didn't expect that they might do the opposite.
It was not until Zhou Bai became the village chief and came forward to say that he wanted to be awarded the medal that he confirmed this after he first checked the current positions of Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou.
I think if no one investigates it carefully, it would be difficult to discover.
Those who can discover it are those who are attentive.
Even if someone discovers it, they basically won't make it public.
As for the natives, they thought even less.
He doesn't know what the future will be like, but for now, he has only one attitude: see through it and keep silent.
As for what Zhou Zhengping said, it is true.
If they are so easily overtaken, it is time for them to step down and let others take over.
Zhou Zhengping looked at Li Xingteng's attitude and smiled.
He also understood that Li Xingteng was suspicious, or rather, many people in the territory were suspicious. He also discussed this issue with his daughter Zhou Bai, and his final choice was to continue living his life as usual.
According to his daughter, whether she was discovered or not, she would never admit it unless it was necessary.
That was true. As long as she was the village chief in the eyes of most people, no one would impose the lord's demands on her.
No matter what, he will support his daughter no matter what she does.
However, he will still work hard to upgrade and enhance his strength.
In this way, he can always be the strongest support for his daughter.
The two of them walked towards the training camp in tacit understanding.
When we entered the training camp, it was packed with people. Both the soldiers' training camp and the professionals' training camp were crowded with people.
Basically, as soon as the previous training room ends, someone will take over.
The two of them naturally joined the queue.
Everyone is equal when it comes to queuing!
After taking position, I heard discussions coming from all directions.
One of the voices mentioned Zhou Bai, and Zhou Zhengping looked over unconsciously.
"The village chief has come out."
"Amazing!
"I counted them.
"You are worthy of being the King of Rolls!"
"Yes, mainly because she fights alone! Today I saw her dealing with a level 10 monster by herself outside. It was very easy. She even often uses this opportunity to practice her skills. It's amazing."
"Her individual combat capability is really strong. I envy her!"
"She gained that skill bit by bit. I heard that she has been fighting against the monsters alone since level 5."
“So strong!”
“…”
Hearing these words of praise, Zhou Zhengping's mouth corners curled up unconsciously.
His daughter is naturally good.
Then, Zhou Zhengping waved directly in the direction of Zhou Bai.
At this time, Zhou Bai also noticed Zhou Zhengping and walked towards him.
Who could believe that the father and daughter haven't had a good chat in the past few days.
Both of us are too busy! Sometimes when we get home, we fall asleep right away.
Now that they had met, and were waiting for a training opportunity, there was still plenty of time. Zhou Zhengping could not wait to take advantage of this opportunity to have a good chat with his daughter.
"Are you tired from training? Don't work too hard!" Zhou Zhengping saw Zhou Bai
"No, today's training is over." Zhou Bai said quickly.
It just so happened that the experience points of several of her skills had reached the critical point, and she wanted to take this opportunity to improve them.
You should know that during training, using skills multiple times can also improve the skill level.
This is why so many professionals flock to training camps.
"Then you should go home and rest." Zhou Zhengping quickly instructed.
"Yeah." Zhou Bai nodded, "Dad, you too, don't train for too long!"
"Okay." Zhou Zhengping responded.
Just when Zhou Bai was about to leave, an undead NPC hurried in from outside the military camp and came all the way to Zhou Bai.
"Village chief, Lord Bayer is looking for you." The undead NPC said hurriedly.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Bai asked directly.
She knew Bayer, just as Bayer knew her. Unless it was an extremely urgent matter, he would generally not look for her at this time.
"An orc has returned, and he brought back news about the orc team." The Undead NPC quickly spoke.
Judging from Lord Bayer's anxious look, it must be big news.
Zhou Bai also thought so, and said directly to Zhou Zhengping beside him: "Dad, I'm leaving first!"
"Go!" Zhou Zhengping said.
As soon as Zhou Bai left, Li Xingteng, who had left the space for the father and daughter, came back.
"What's the matter?"
"Lucas and O'Neal have brought back news." Zhou Zhengping said directly.
"It's been many days, it's time for some news. I hope it's good news!" Li Xingteng said. The orcs are really good at fighting, and their presence can be more stimulating.
"With their strength, plus Lucas, the probability of problems occurring is low. If there are any problems, they will probably be caused by other people." Zhou Zhengping is still very confident in the combined strength of Lucas and O'Neal.
"We'll know soon. As long as they don't run into any trouble, we'll most likely just have to wait for them to come back on their own. If there are any problems, our soldiers may be asked to go out on a mission," Li Xingteng analyzed.
Zhou Zhengping nodded in agreement.
On the other side, Zhou Bai had already returned to the lord's mansion.
In the office, Bayer and Poly were waiting.
Zhou Bai glanced at Bao Li's expression, and seeing that he didn't seem nervous, he felt a little relieved.
Looks like good news.
Sure enough, after Zhou Bai sat down, Bao Li spoke.
"Lord Lucas asked me to come back and explain the situation to you, the village chief. We have entered the human kingdom and everything is going well. There is just one thing I want to explain." Paulie said with a hint of excitement on his face.
"Hmm?" Zhou Bai listened, a little curious.
"On our way back, we encountered a group of mercenaries with many orcs. We were accidentally discovered by them, so we used their tricks to rescue more than 200 orcs. At that time..." Paulie explained Lucas' plan and how they implemented it in detail. "That's it. Now Lord Lucas is coming back with them. I came back early because I hope you, the village chief, can be prepared."
"Do you want me to send someone to pick them up?" Zhou Bai asked, unable to help but put a smile on his face.
If more than two hundred orcs, even if they are not warriors, come to Hope Village for refuge, there will definitely be a place for them in Hope Village.
There is still a large piece of land behind my mountain that has not been developed!
When they came, she would immediately engage them in planting and breeding.
These two things are crucial to Hope Village now!
Planting involves various ingredients, and breeding involves dried animal meat, which are the pillar industries of Hope Village!
"Lord Lucas said that if it is convenient, he could send someone to pick us up. We don't have enough food with us, and we might have to waste time hunting on the way. If there is someone to pick us up, they will arrive at Hope Village faster." Paulie said hurriedly.
"Well, I will lead the team out myself tomorrow." Zhou Bai said directly.
She is now quite adept at dealing with level 14 monsters, and she thinks she can go outside and get in touch with more higher-level monsters.
This trip will be a good opportunity.
By the way, update her lord map as well.
Of course, the most important thing is that there are people taking care of every aspect of the territory now, so even if she is not there, there will not be any major changes in the territory.
With the right time, right place and right people, she is definitely going on this trip!
When Bayer heard this, he paused, but finally did not object.
He knew very well that the Lord was obsessed with becoming stronger.
Indeed, the stronger the lord is, the better it is for the territory, so he has no objection.
But when the time comes, someone will have to stay with the lord to protect her.
Thinking about this, Bayer had already started to consider the candidates in his mind.
Heidi, the strongest among the undead, must be sent, as well as Alick and others.
As for the orcs, let the Lord take away as many as can fight!
"Then I'll follow you." Paulie said impatiently.
"Yeah." Zhou Bai nodded in agreement, then looked at Bayer.
Bayer nodded upon seeing this and said, "Leave the territory to us! We will protect it well."
Zhou Bai smiled when he heard this, "Bayer, you are so nice."
Bayer listened, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.
Of course, it’s because the Lord deserves it.
After this matter was finalized,
Zhou Zhengping and Li Xingteng also signed up to participate.
Zhou Zhengping did it for Zhou Bai, but Li Xingteng had other considerations.
Li Xingteng had not expected that the orcs had no problems but still needed to go on a mission. However, this was exactly what he wanted. He felt that this trip might help him improve his practical experience.
Although their levels have gone up, there is still a difference in combat capabilities between them and local professionals.
While Zhou Bai and his group were taking action, Lucas and his group on the other side also discovered that something was "wrong" with the surrounding environment after a night.
