Chapter 782: Go to the Beast Tribe Area
After Hayden personally imprisoned the native leader and the priestess in the dungeon of the small town, Gervis rode the Swift Dragon Bird to the river bank outside the city.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, the Honorable Gervis!"
At this moment, what was in front of Gervis was a half-burnt broken bridge. It was the bridge that originally connected the other side and could reach the city of Johnson and others as quickly as possible.
Alec and the goblin Chachar were here checking the situation on the river bank.
Now that the Holy Bridge Fort has been captured, the bridge across the river must be built as soon as possible so that Gervis' caravan can travel quickly and safely.
So when they set out, Gervis took Chachar with him.
"How about Chachar, how long would it take to build a solid wooden bridge here?"
Gervis nodded at the two of them and immediately asked.
"Your Majesty Gervis, this river is more than 300 meters wide. Normally it would take at least three months to build a bridge!"
"However, your order is to complete it as quickly as possible, so as long as you assign 3,000 ordinary workers and 200 title knights to me, I can guarantee that it will be completed in one month!"
Today, Chachar has tasted the sweetness of working under Gervis. Gervis has already told Caroline to improve Chachar's treatment as much as possible.
In particular, he was provided with plenty of wine, so Chachar became so addicted to the sacred forest that he no longer wanted to leave.
After all, if he returned to the Goblin tribe, how could he live the life he has now?
Even when Gervis asked him to send people back to recruit some goblins a few days ago, Chachar never thought of going back himself, but sent out a few soldiers to return to the goblin tribe.
He doesn't have to do any work here. He just needs to design various buildings and tools that he likes, and arrange how his goblin subordinates should carry out the construction. He wouldn't even trade it for the position of a goblin patriarch.
"Very good! Then I'll leave the matters here to you! You will go back with me tomorrow and then go find the manpower and materials that Caroline told you about to build the bridge."
"Once the bridge is built, you will definitely get the benefits!"
A month is indeed not a long time. After all, the river is more than 300 meters wide.
"Yes, Your Majesty Gervis, I will do my best to serve you!"
Chachar immediately showed a flattering expression and bowed and nodded towards Gervis.
…
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning, Gervis set out back to St. Ann with 200 of his direct guards, escorting more than 2,500 natives.
There are no cities around Saint Bridge Castle, and the nearest one is more than a hundred miles away, so Gervis only left two hundred direct guards to garrison, and left Hayden and Alex to take over the management temporarily.
In order to make the Holy Bridge Castle safer, Gervis also left thirty swift dragon birds for them to use, which can monitor the movements within a radius of fifty miles of the city around the clock.
With such an arrangement, Gervis thought safety should not be a problem unless there was a large force or a strong man attacking.
…
"Come on, you big guy!"
Bang! The return journey was even slower because there were more than 2,000 natives walking.
After much delay, on the morning of the third day, Gervis and his party finally appeared outside the city of St. Ann.
The native leader had been traveling non-stop for three days without eating anything, so even he, the Red Flag Knight, could not bear it any longer.
After he took a few slow steps with heavy steps, the goblin Chachar immediately swung his whip and hit the native leader with a crisp sound.
However, this native leader was really tough. He had not eaten anything for three days, and Chachar had whipped him all the way, but he didn't say a word.
Even Gervais didn't know his name yet.
Of course, this was also due to the fact that Chachar’s strength was too low. Although the whip made a loud noise, it actually did no harm to the indigenous leader!
Gervis had not paid any attention to these Chachars along the way. Since the Chachars liked this and enjoyed it, he just let them be. After all, the natives with such stubborn bones were difficult to control.
…
"Grevith! I missed you!"
Returning to St. Ann's City, Gervis and others were warmly welcomed.
Because the Swift Dragon Bird came back to inform them in advance, Caroline and others had already prepared delicious food and wine to reward the group.
At this time, Gervis took a comfortable hot bath with the help of Anna, the maid, and then walked out of the building. Caroline finally finished her work and came to find Gervis.
Bo! Caroline's response was naturally a powerful wall-dong.
"How's the gathering place these days?"
Gervis asked as he took Caroline by the hand and walked towards the temple.
"Three days ago, another group of orcs rushed out from the mountains and tried to attack us, but they were finally repelled by those turrets!"
Caroline replied softly, tilting her head and snuggling into Gervase's arm.
"Very good! Just remember to reward them!"
Gervis nodded. Now both the orcs and himself were focused on the Land of God's Fall, so those weak orcs were not a threat at all.
"The rewards have been given. In addition, several girls in the medical team have cultivated their spiritual power!"
Caroline continued
"Oh, what abilities do they have?"
Gervis was very satisfied and asked again with a smile.
"According to the method you taught me, five are wood-type, three are water-type, and one is fire-type!"
As long as you have mental power, it is easy to tell which type of magician a magician is. You can tell the difference by simply meditating to see which color of magic is closest to you.
The wood element is green, the water element is blue, the fire element is red, the earth element is brown, the wind element is cyan, and the undead element is gray. Gervis had already told Caroline about this, so all she had to do was let the medical team members say the corresponding colors themselves and they would be able to determine, "Five wood elements and three water elements? Very good, you should urge them to get in touch when the time comes!"
Since it is a medical team, the wood and water elements are the best, after all, they both have healing spells.
As for the fire element, that is not a problem at all. The medical team also has to go to the battlefield, and with the protection of the fire magician, the safety of the medical team can be ensured.
"Okay, Gervis! I'll keep an eye on them!"
During the conversation, Gervis and Caroline arrived at the square of the temple, and then had a sumptuous celebratory banquet with a group of direct guards.
At the same time, Gervis also announced the rewards this time in public. Every guard member who participated in the battle could get a reward of five gold coins, and more gold coins would be added based on the number of enemies killed.
Although the Holy Bridge Fort was small, it brought Gervis an income of more than 10,000 gold coins, all of which were found on the bodies of the natives or in their houses, so Gervis was not stingy at all.
…
After the celebratory banquet, the captives were temporarily guarded by Gandalf and Ghost, and Gervase took Caroline directly back to the small building.
Back in the room in the small building, just as Gervis was about to have a serious discussion with Caroline about life, there was a knock on the door.
"Your Majesty, Captain Ike and his men are back and are asking for an audience outside the temple!"
The voice of Anna, the little maid, came from outside the door.
“…”
"Hehe! Go ahead!"
Caroline looked at Gervis's gloomy face and smiled with her hands covering her red lips.
"Then you have to wait for me!"
Gervis stood up depressedly and walked out of the house, and at the same time prepared to give Ike and the others a bad look. This was a complete lack of face for him.
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
When Gervis arrived at the temple, Ik and the other ten people were standing inside the temple waiting for him, and Gervis felt relieved.
Of course, although they were unharmed, they were disheveled and dirty, and it was obvious that they had been working very hard over the past few days.
Seeing this, Gervis put away his resentment and said to the few people.
"Sit down and talk!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Perhaps Ike and the others were really tired and did not act pretentiously. After listening to Gervis' words, they immediately walked aside and sat on the wooden chairs.
"How was your outing? Did you encounter any danger?"
After all ten of Ik were seated, Gervis began to ask.
"Your Majesty, thanks to the potion you gave us, although we encountered two pursuits on the way, we were able to escape safely in the end..."
When the guards heard Gervis start by showing concern for them, they were deeply moved.
Ike immediately recounted the details of the investigation.
This time they followed Gervis' instructions and headed west. Although they got the direction mixed up for dozens of times, they finally found the orcs after six days of flying.
While scouting the orc city, they encountered a wave of orc air knights. Fortunately, they had potions that enhanced their strength, and finally they used the speed of the swift dragon bird to shake off the enemy.
The second wave of interception they encountered was from the Golden Shield Family. When they were still two days away from Saint Ann City, they were chased by the Golden Shield Family's Swift Dragon Bird.
In the end, he also used potions to enhance the strength of the Swift Dragon Bird and escaped.
"Your Majesty, this is the map we drew this time, but there may be some errors in the orientation!"
After explaining what happened, Ike immediately took out a blueprint from his pocket and handed it to Gervis.
Gervis took the drawing, looked at it for a moment, and nodded.
"You did a good job this time, go down and have a good rest for a few days!"
The map of this world was entirely hand-drawn, and Gervis didn't expect it to be accurate. He just hoped to know the approximate location to find one of the small towns when the time came.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After Ike and the others left, Gervis put away the blueprints and hurried back to the small building, then...
…
Early the next morning, Gervis rode on the Swift Dragon Bird in high spirits and flew into the sky towards the west.
Now that he had figured out the orcs' exact location, Gervis naturally had to go back quickly. Days without energy points were more painful than days without gold coins.
So, this time, Gervis rode on one and took three swift dragon birds with him and went alone.
Flying in the air and watching the city of Saint Ann getting farther and farther away, Gervis put the purple scroll in his hand into the space.
When Gandalf learned that Gervis would be away alone for more than a week, he directly returned the scroll of forbidden spells to him, saying that he was worried about Gervis traveling alone.
In the end, Gervis didn't refuse much. He really didn't have any trump cards this time. He only had 8 energy points left. Although he could exchange a few points with gold coins, it was enough to buy one or two kiwi fruits.
But this time we are heading to the orc city, and I don’t know if it will be enough.
Gervis has also made a plan, which is to make a quick buck and run away, and never be greedy for more!
…
In this way, Gervis flew westward according to the terrain on the map.
After flying for about four days, Gervis finally arrived at the edge of the orc area.
After entering the orc area, Gervis immediately increased the flying height of the Swift Dragon Bird to hide his body, and finally found a small indigenous town occupied by orcs at dusk.
Gervis did not dare to ride the Swift Dragon Bird close to the town, but instead stayed two or three miles away and landed in the woods outside the city.
"This small town has pretty strong defenses!"
In the woods outside the city, Gervis hid among the branches and observed the city gates and walls. He found that the entire city was tightly guarded by the orcs. There was even a small group of birds circling in the sky. It would be very difficult to sneak in under such circumstances.
But if he didn't sneak into the city, Gervis wouldn't be able to get a lot of energy points. He couldn't come all the way here only to earn a few dozen or a hundred energy points! "Hey! Maybe I can get in among them!"
Just when Gervis was thinking about how to enter the city, he suddenly discovered that on the road not far away there was a long line of descendants of God's servants being escorted.
Gervis immediately thought of a way to enter the city, which was to blend in with these descendants of God's servants.
However, after entering the city, he didn't know whether it would be easy to leave.
"Wealth and honor are sought through risk! Earn first and talk later!"
Seeing that the team of hundreds of descendants of God's servants was about to pass by, Gervis didn't have time to think about it. He immediately walked to the side of the road, and then took advantage of the orc guards not paying attention to quickly blend into the crowd.
However, the descendants of God's servants did not react at all to Gervis' sudden joining. Their faces were pale and their eyes were dull.
Gervis didn't think much about it and followed everyone into the small town occupied by the orcs.
After entering the town, Gervis was taken to the center of the town and imprisoned along with the descendants of God's servants.
He and more than a hundred natives were locked up in a large courtyard. Several strong orcs were guarding the courtyard walls and the roofs of the houses.
"That pillar is probably the orcs' totem pole, right?"
It was not completely dark at this moment, and Gervis was not ready to take action, but his attention was attracted by a stone pillar more than ten meters high in the square.
The stone pillar was so thick that it took four or five people to hug it, and there were many strange symbols and patterns on it that shone with golden and red light.
"So if you want to make a big deal tonight, you'll probably have to destroy this thing first!"
Gervis frowned slightly. The totem pole of the beastmen actually has the same effect as the sacred tree of the human race, except that the totem pole has no consciousness and the effect is not as strong as that of the sacred tree.
However, it can increase the combat effectiveness or various auxiliary functions of the beastmen within the range, and almost all larger beastmen groups will have their own totem poles to protect the group.
So if Gervis wants to reduce the risk, he still needs to get rid of the stone pillar before taking any action.
Thanks to "HEHUY" for the reward!!!
