Chapter 58 Food and Gunpowder

"Because I have to survive."

"To survive? Don't you have parents?" "

My father was killed by thieves. When they wanted to kill me and my mother, we were rescued by the troops retreating to Silvermoon City. My mother was burned to death in the orc siege. I luckily survived."

"So you chose to steal to survive? There is no relief in Silvermoon City?"

"There are hungry people everywhere in Silvermoon City. The relief food is snatched away by the adults every day, and I can't get it. Several of my friends starved to death, and I don't want to be like them..."

"Then why did you choose the Hearthstone Inn? The defense there is very special."

"Because everyone there can eat their fill."

It was a simple reason, but Vashj thought of something deeper.

The waiter brought the food up, and the little girl kept glancing at the table.

Vashj rubbed her head and said, "Eat, these are all yours. You can also eat your fill in the future, as long as you show your worth."

The little girl was a little confused.

"I will train you and make you useful to us."

The little girl seemed to understand and ate her meal in big mouthfuls.

"I haven't asked your name yet."

The little girl said incoherently: "Valeeera. Sagunar."

Kikyo was unhappy in the staff room, and she started complaining to Vashj when she saw her.

"A thief actually appeared on Kozan Island! This is unimaginable! Everyone who lands on the island must be strictly checked, and a thief actually sneaked in!"

Vashj waved the wallet in her hand.

"How did my wallet get into your hands?"

Kikyo suddenly realized: "Is it that little girl? I should have thought of it earlier."

"Yes, her skill is very useful."

Kikyo said dissatisfiedly: "What's the point of petty theft."

"You don't understand, I know one thing from her mouth, the people of Silvermoon City are not well fed."

"So what."

"The reason why she went to the Hearthstone Inn to steal is because the people there can eat well, so I'm worried..."

Vashj looked at Kikyo, and Kikyo shook her head, not understanding.

"The people of Silvermoon City are already living in poverty because of the war, and the surplus money has been plundered by the royal family and given to mercenaries. Even a little girl knows the lives of our people clearly. If someone instigates, I am worried about a civil uprising. What we want is a Silvermoon City that can be used to collect wool, not a Silvermoon City that will oppose us."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Prepare some food to help the residents of Silvermoon City, and the commission can be 'appropriately' delayed. You go and prepare it, and I will go to see the master."

At this time, Richard had already read the small report sent by Virgil, saying that the people below reported that Vashj violated orders and took the girl away privately. Richard smiled, crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can.

When Vashj entered the room, she saw Richard leaning back in a chair, with Fina massaging his shoulders.

"What's wrong? Why did you suddenly come to Silvermoon City?"

Vashj told Richard about his thoughts.

Richard sat up and thought, then said, "Your worries are justified. If you are too excited, it will be difficult to deal with us if the old king loses his face and reputation and breaks the contract and is determined to deal with us. The commission can be delayed. This wave of food can be used well to gain some reputation."

Vashj took note and said, "I found a useful girl today.

" "The little thief?"

"Yes, training can achieve extraordinary results whether it is intelligence gathering or behind-the-enemy sabotage. Even if you teach her some killing skills, she can excel in some aspects."

"For example?"

Vashj walked around Richard's back, stroked Richard's forehead with one hand and let him rest on her abdomen, and stroked Richard's face with both hands. Fina looked out the door without blinking.

"For example..."

Vashj scratched Richard's neck lightly with her nails.

"Assassination? It doesn't seem necessary at the moment. But it's always better to be prepared."

The food was delivered to Silvermoon City that day, along with a bunch of charlatans, oh no, priests, led by Yang Hua. Their mission is to go deep into the masses and improve the image of the mercenaries.

"These are all food for Silvermoon City."

Sylvanas looked at the carts full of food with tears in her eyes. She knew the situation in Silvermoon City. Many people were starving to death, and they couldn't buy food without money. Sylvanas was also dissatisfied with these mercenaries, but all her dissatisfaction disappeared when she saw the food. With this food, many people would not die.

"In addition, I have discussed with the leaders of several other races. The recent commissions can be paid after the war is over. We will support you to tide over the difficulties."

"On behalf of the people of Silvermoon City, I thank you." Sylvanas bowed deeply.

"Hey, don't be like this." Richard quickly helped her up.

Alleria said, "Please accept our thanks. These food will save many people."

Turayan also nodded.

Everyone pushed the food to the door of the Hearthstone Inn and began to distribute it.

In the palace of Silvermoon City, Anasritaan received the report on the distribution of food by Richard and others.

"Reward their behavior." He ordered.

The messenger walked out, and Anasritaan just held the report with a serious expression. " You have no respect for the royal family.

If I can't punish Richard and Turayan, can I not punish you Windrunners?" Richard didn't know that the king in the palace was dissatisfied because he felt that he had lost face. Even if he knew, he would not care about the old king. He might as well pay attention to the developments in Alterac. A mountain forest half a day's journey away from Alterac, Orgrim. Hammer of Destruction and his troops were hiding inside. They notified the goblin merchants with special signals a few hours ago. "It's them! Let them pass!" A convoy drove into the forest, led by two short goblins. There was only an orc, two goblins and one or two carts in the simple tent of the chief.

"You are very trustworthy." said the Hammer of Destruction.

Wuyou smiled and said, "We goblins value integrity when doing business."

Wuyou pointed to the goblin next to him and said, "His name is Blackfuse, and people call him the Siege Master."

Blackfuse nodded. Blackfuse was originally just an ordinary technician. After Vashj took over the goblins, he discovered his talent in explosives, and with some of his novel ideas, he quickly became famous. As for the title of Siege Master, it was given to him when he came. Titles such as Master and Expert are just to fool these ignorant orcs.

"What weapons did you bring for us?"

"This is it." Wuyou lifted the cloth of the cart, and it was full of burlap bags.

"What is this?" The Hammer of Destruction was confused.

Wu You pulled out a bag, threw it upwards and said, "This is called a dynamite pack."
