Cultivation of the Elf Continent

Saltpeter, is it really saltpeter? After careful questioning by Halson, it turns out that there are many such naked crystals in the Gobi Desert. The demi-humans use them to treat headaches. Halson patted his head, yes, saltpeter is in the desert. It exists in the soil layer. Such a large Gobi desert should have saltpeter mines. Harsen arranged for these demi-humans to be included in the territory. He also found the old demi-human and carefully inquired about the current situation in the Gobi Desert. When he asked, he discovered that the current Gobi Desert was far more complicated than he thought. The Tauren, one of the five major tribes of orcs, occupied the Shengxi Valley and expelled the centaurs, jackals, and goblins from the original Shengxi Valley. Arriving at the Gobi Desert, centaurs are lustful, violent, and warlike, gnolls are cruel, bad-eating, insidious, and goblins are timid, greedy, and ignorant. None of these three races can be called intelligent races, they are humanoid. Animals, these three types of animals, Da Si massacred the demi-humans, forcing the demi-humans to flee on a large scale. Now if you want to go to the Gobi Desert, you must have a strong team. Halson fell into thought. Saltpeter is the ore that he must occupy, and He has one mid-level beast soul warrior, one mid-level warrior, 19 lower-level warriors, and 30 militiamen. After thinking about it for a night, Halson has a countermeasure. First, start recruiting troops to make up for what he can recruit. The number of guards, although Harson, as a baron, only has a quota of 100. The empire has strict regulations on the number of recruits for each title. Of course, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below. As long as you have money to support them, secondly, use money. Recruiting masters, there is a saying that money makes all the difference. As long as you can afford it, people will naturally join you. In this place where adventurers are popular, it is easier to recruit masters with gold coins. Now, there are many in the Gobi Desert. The fleeing demi-humans can completely recruit a large number of demi-humans to serve as the productivity of River Valley Town and liberate the labor force in River Valley Town. The recruitment of soldiers in River Valley Town will soon be full, because Halson issued a notice that even serfs can serve as soldiers. After serving for one year, they were exempted from serf status and the newly arrived sub-humans took over the land where the serfs had paid military service. These sub-humans were also very grateful to Baron Halson. After all, compared to the precarious and homeless life in the Gobi Desert, this It is simply paradise. In the border town, it is also said that Baron Halson spent a lot of money to recruit experts. As a gathering place for adventurers, the border town soon had people coming. However, after the review of Devin and Helen, some guys who fished in troubled waters were eliminated. There are really a few good guys, a wandering first-level elf envoy, although he only knows the "hydrotherapy" skill, Halson still did not hesitate to hire him at a high price of 80 gold coins, an orc night cat assassin, low-level Beast Soul Warrior 50 gold coins, a wandering honorary knight, an intermediate warrior, 50 gold coins a manatee native, almost the same ability as an intermediate warrior, an intelligent life in the sea, the disadvantage is that he cannot leave the water for a long time, but Halson still Recruit it, 50 gold coins. In just a few days, Halson's gold coins have shrunk significantly. It can be said that the money is flowing like water. The low-level warriors have increased the training of the militia. Although the demi-humans are thin, they are good at farming. , at the same time, Halson also discovered that among the demi-humans, there is a kind of elk demi-humans who are very good at cooking. Simple food can be made into delicious dishes in their hands. These demi-humans were naturally separated by Halson and were responsible for the castle. Moreover, the more you get along with demi-humans, the more you discover the uniqueness of demi-humans. There is a kind of macaque demi-humans who are ingenious and good at weaving some handmade products. Under the instruction of Halson, they weave something called a fishing net. For such treasure-like demi-humans, Halson decided to gather more demi-humans into his territory. The current River Valley Town is different from before. The most intuitive thing is that the area where flash floods once broke out has now It was dug into a big pit, and the excavated soil was burned into pieces of red bricks and neatly placed aside. In this way, slowly, this big pit can be used as a water storage lake, which can solve the problem of flash floods. , It can also alleviate the water source problem during drought. In the open space near the castle, according to Halson's plan, the construction of the first house has begun. Although, the people of River Valley Town do not lack housing. According to Baron Halson, this is called I don’t understand the centralized reconstruction of town planning, but the Baron is happy. At the same time, Halson also gathered several carpenters to build a large ship and built a dock on the seaside. Moreover, the militiamen in River Valley Town added a diving training, so Like a huge machine, with full power and infrastructure construction, of course, Harson's daily gold coins were like running water, which made Harson have to sell magic plants to Mrs. Mary twice to ease the financial pressure. Even Mrs. Mary Everyone is making fun of Halson, who is the most prodigal noble. The civil strife in the Orc Empire is still continuing. It was originally just a civil strife between two kings and five tribes, but now it has expanded to a further escalation of internal strife among the subordinate races below. And on the desert side of River Valley Town, from time to time, Halson, the demi-human who wandered here, was naturally welcomed with both hands. In Halson's eyes, demi-humans were a treasure race. In addition to their weak bodies, they were not suitable for fighting. Of course, during this period, Halson led all the warriors in the territory. They went deep into the Gobi desert to investigate the situation of saltpeter. Under the leadership of the old Yaren, Halson, Helen, Devin, the wandering elf, Ford, the wandering knight, Bert, the orc assassin, Kate, a group of seven people went deep into the Gobi. The depths of the Gobi Desert are much more dangerous than imagined. As soon as they entered the Gobi Desert, they were blocked by five tall centaurs. It was the first time for Halson to see this legendary creature. Its upper body was human. The torso and lower body are made up of the well-developed muscles of a horse, and the weapons are also five-shot, including thick animal bones, old spears, and simple wooden bows. After seeing Halson and his party, especially the hot figure Helen's eyes were filled with excitement, and she rushed over with a scream. This kind of creature that was a combination of man and horse was indeed very fast. It rushed over in the blink of an eye, and the man with the bow and arrow had already bent the bow and nocked the arrow, and the arrow feathers were like sharp swords. , stabbed at Halson fiercely, but was blocked by Devin with his giant sword. Looking at the men and horses in the distance, Halson couldn't help but sigh, the men and horses are indeed creatures good at archery, a simple wooden The bow can shoot to such a distance, and while running, the aim is still so accurate. The wandering knight Bert and the orc assassin Kate on the side took care of several men and horses in a few steps. After all, creatures of this level are only smaller than It's okay for ordinary people to be stronger and bully demi-humans, but it's not enough to watch when they encounter more powerful fighting races.
