Chapter 858: Recruiting Centaurs
None of the Centaur captives had expected that they would see other tribesmen here.
At the same time, Drogo had also seen them, and seemed quite excited.
Even after merging with Diak's tribe, the reproduction of their Centaur tribe has been going very smoothly in recent years.
But Drogo didn't expect that this wave could harvest nearly 300 people at once, which was enough to make their tribe larger and their reproduction ability stronger! At this moment, he was not the only one who was excited about this. In fact, including Diak, the centaurs who came with him were all very excited.
Feeling the gazes of the Centaur captives on him, Drogo forced himself to put on a stern face. After all, he would be recruiting these Centaurs as the leader of a tribe, and he couldn't just smile cheerfully.
The Centaurs respect the strong, and when the tribe selects its leader, they basically respect the strong. The proper dignity must be displayed.
The centaurs led by Drogo quickly approached the centaur captives.
Looking at those faces full of surprise and surprise, Drogo cleared his throat...
"Ahem, I know you must be curious about who I am. I am General Drogo of Feiyan City in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I am also your new leader!"
The Centaur captives had already guessed Drogo's intention, but when he actually said those words, it still caused a commotion.
Drogo ignored this and just stood in front and shouted something simply and rudely.
"If you don't agree, feel free to stand up and challenge me!"
Unexpectedly, just as Drogo finished speaking, the Centaur captives on the opposite side had not yet responded, and among his subordinates, a voice eager to try sounded...
"Why does the colonel need to take action for such a small matter? I'll take care of them!"
As he spoke, before Diak could react, Joseph rushed out.
【Joseph, you kid! 】
Looking at Joseph's back as he jumped out, a vein on Diak's forehead suddenly popped up, but he did not rush up to catch Joseph.
Now is the time for the leader to accept challenges from new members of the tribe, so he must not make a fool of himself.
Drogo had similar ideas, but he was always carefree and not as worrisome as Diack. In response to Joseph's initiative, Drogo laughed out loud.
"Well, then Lieutenant Joseph will accept the challenge."
As he spoke, Drogo's gaze fell on the group of Centaur captives again.
"If you can't even beat this guy, then there's no need to challenge me!"
"That's right, if you can't even beat me, then just surrender."
Joseph is a young boy at this age, full of vigor and extremely combative.
He really wasn't satisfied with the previous battle of Tunliang, and he was feeling bored now.
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused dissatisfaction among many Centaur captives on the opposite side.
In their eyes, Joseph was just a brat who had just reached adulthood a few years ago. How could he be so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth?
"Let me teach you a lesson!"
As he was speaking, a Centaur captive stepped forward and used the word "lesson", obviously not taking Joseph seriously at all.
Seeing this, Drogo waved his hand, and the soldier next to him immediately understood and removed the shackles on his hands and feet, and at the same time threw him a wooden spear for training.
To show fairness, Joseph even had someone help him take off his armor, and he went on stage directly with his training spear in hand and his arms shining.
Seeing this, Drogo didn't say much and took out a copper coin.
"The copper coin falls to the ground and starts right away."
After saying this, without caring whether they heard it clearly or not, Drogo flicked his thumb and flicked the copper coin into the air.
Almost at the moment when the copper coin fell to the ground, the centaur captive holding the training spear felt a flash before his eyes, and then his body lost balance and was knocked to the ground on the spot!
At that moment, his body fell heavily to the ground, and the pain made him subconsciously want to stand up again.
But the training spear was directly pressed against his throat! Instantly, the whole place fell into a dead silence. Joseph sneered, raised his chin complacently, and looked at the centaurs in the distance.
"Who else wants to 'teach' me a lesson?"
“…”
The 'lesson' he had said to him before was undoubtedly returned double now. The face of the Centaur captive lying on the ground turned red, but he could not utter a word.
At the same time, the Centaur captives, who had been looking forward to the show, were silent for a long time.
Even many of the Centaur captives had confused expressions on their faces.
No one expected that the boy's speed was so astonishingly fast. After bursting at high speed, he approached the opponent almost in an instant, knocked him to the ground with one blow, and then held the opponent's throat with the training spear.
From the beginning to the end, the movement was so fast and frightening that it even made them feel a little unbelievable!
Looking at the completely silent Centaur captives, Joseph couldn't help but feel even more proud. He was just about to brag a little, but in the next second, a slap landed directly on the back of his head.
The familiar angle and force made Joseph turn around in confusion and look at Diak with a stern face.
"No, what did I do again?!"
Seeing Joseph like this, Diak spoke expressionlessly...
"Just now, the fight could have been resolved with just one strike, so why did you deliberately sweep him down?"
“…”
Hearing this, Joseph shrank his neck and instantly became timid.
Because just like Diak said, with the speed he burst out, he could basically defeat a Centaur who had no idea about him and was completely unprepared with just one strike, without even having to hit him twice.
He rushed forward and deliberately knocked the other person upside down. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to give the other person a small "return" for what he said he would teach him a lesson.
"Do you know that if this happened on the battlefield, you might lose your life just because of this one extra blow?"
Their Majesty had specifically mentioned Joseph's fighting talent, so Diak had been focusing on his training.
Facts have proved that Joseph's fighting talent is indeed amazing. In a one-on-one duel, Drogo and Diack can only rely on their understanding of him to barely suppress him.
But this kid's character is a big problem, which makes Diak very worried.
Joseph, who had defeated the challenger in an instant with lightning speed and crushing manner the moment before, the next moment acted like a child who had made a mistake and was caught by his parents. He hung his head and accepted the scolding obediently.
This scene made the Centaur captives standing nearby gasp.
Judging from his performance just now, that boy’s strength can be said to be astonishingly strong.
How strong must Diak be to be able to slap that kid on the back of the head and then point at him and curse him? At the same time, don't forget that there is a leader on the opposite side!
Following this line of thought, the Centaur captives were a little afraid to think further.
On the contrary, Drogo and his companions had already become accustomed to the scene before them.
"Anyone else want to challenge?"
After asking this question, no one in the audience answered.
Seeing this, Drogo nodded with satisfaction.
"From today on, you are soldiers of our Great Zhou!"
