The Witcher: Son of the Planes.
Chapter 206: Lurking in Steel Mane City 4
The next morning, Colin and Barrick's sister Jenny took Barrick to the recruit camp.
The orc who was in charge of registration yesterday was the one who received Barrick. The orc was very enthusiastic. There were many orcs and half-orcs who came to register every day, but not many of them were recognized by him for their strength. He still admired this little boy Barrick very much.
Barrick stood at the entrance of the recruit camp, filled with excitement. This is where his dream began and where his father had set foot. I must follow in my father's footsteps and not let my sister and brother Colin worry.
There was more than one new recruit at the entrance, and it was impossible for others to wait for him endlessly. Finally, Barrick had to reluctantly say goodbye to his sister Jenny and brother Colin, turned his head and followed the team of new recruits into the camp.
After Jenny tearfully bid farewell to Barrick, she was still talking to the orc at the entrance, asking him to take good care of Barrick, as he was still a child and other nonsense. Fortunately, the orc in charge of registration had a good impression of Barrick, otherwise he would not have paid attention to the nonsense of a poor female orc.
Seeing that Jenny was getting more and more excited, Colin had no choice but to pull Jenny away. Jenny felt embarrassed when she saw Colin holding her arm. She did not struggle, but grabbed Colin's arm and followed Colin away.
After returning to the residence, Jenny let go of Colin. After saying "I'll prepare lunch first", she hurried back to the house. Colin didn't feel anything about Jenny's behavior along the way. He was thinking more about how much information he could get when Barrick came back in a month.
And our Jenny, after returning to the house, had no intention of cooking for a long time. She was still blushing for her bold behavior along the way, but thinking that Colin had no intention of refusing, did she have some thoughts about herself?
Jenny has always known that she is different among the orcs. She looks more like her mother, and if you don't look carefully, she is not much different from a human. Most orcs only use human women as tools for reproduction after capturing them, and do not have much love for them.
They tend to like stronger female orcs, not only because they are more likely to give birth to strong offspring, but also because strong female orcs can share the hardships of life. However, there are also some orcs who like her weak appearance. Is this the case with Brother Colin?
During the nearly five months of living in Steelmane City, Colin had not been idle except for teaching Barrick some routine basic movements. Under conditions that were not suitable for experiments, he could only study spells. Due to limited conditions, Colin was unable to test large spells.
During this period of time, he mainly practiced soul spells and space spells. Soul spells and space spells are difficult to practice, and even more difficult to master. In five months, Colin has only learned the basics of soul spells. However, judging from the effects of the soul spells he has been continuously casting on Jenny and Barrick in the past five months, the effect is very obvious.
The siblings' dependence on Colin increased, and their favorability increased. Although it might be a little weird, as long as the purpose was achieved, it seemed that the spell of soul suggestion could be further developed and applied.
As for space spells, Colin actually wanted to develop spells related to movement and teleportation, but his knowledge reserve was limited, so he could only use the detailed explanation of space spells he found before coming to the Agri plane to develop the Dimension Slash.
Looking at the teleportation stone in his hand obtained from the necromancer Pugna, Colin has never been able to figure out the principle of its teleportation. Before he was promoted, he thought that he could not chew too much and just promoted one level first. After the promotion, due to various reasons, he had not had time to study space magic. Although he is behind enemy lines now and has plenty of time, his research has been fruitless. Colin can only helplessly put the teleportation stone into the space equipment again.
During the five months in Steelmane City, Colin had also been in contact with the base. After learning about Colin's plan, Stanley also agreed. The war at the front would not be over in a short time. Since Colin had found a good way to hide, it would be good for him to get more intelligence on the orcs.
Colin was not clear about the other groups' lurking situations. He thought that they should have done a good job as well. However, Colin did not hear that anything big had happened in any orc city.
While Jenny and Colin were thinking about their own things, Barrick had officially joined the recruit camp. He was assigned to the 53rd team. The captain, Feeney, was a werewolf and an "old soldier" who had once plundered south. He was not interested in Barrick, the half-orc, at first, but he somehow learned about Barrick's "record" yesterday, and then his attitude towards Barrick changed very quickly. He praised Barrick as the hope of the 53rd team and a captain.
Barrick was still a child after all, and he could not stand Feeney's blatant praise. He blushed and had an even better impression of Feeney. He felt that all the new recruits were good people, and the captain was the best of the good. If they had not known each other for a short time, he would have felt that he was comparable to Brother Colin.
There were a dozen or so other orcs joining Team 53 together with Barrick. Maybe because of their age, they were not as moved as Barrick by what Feni said.
Feni's speech didn't last long. He briefly inquired about the situation of several new orcs who had joined, and then introduced his great achievements during his last march south. Then he ended the speech. After announcing that everyone would drill on time tomorrow, he let everyone rest.
While Barrick was still excited about the assigned accommodation, the old men in the team had already set their eyes on this little guy. They enthusiastically pulled Barrick to tell him some precautions in the new recruit camp, such as not to mess with certain orcs, not to go to certain places and so on. Of course, if Barrick was strong enough, these would not be a problem. As long as he didn't kill the orcs, he could do whatever he wanted. For the orcs, strength was everything.
When Barrick asked about Captain Feeney's deeds, several "old men" looked at each other and suddenly laughed. Barrick didn't know what they were laughing at. When he asked, no one said much, but just reminded him again to watch more and talk less, and that when training in the recruit camp, it is enough to focus on mastering the berserk skills, as they can't teach you anything else here.
On the first night in the recruit camp, Barrick couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He thought of his father, his sister, and his elder brother Colin. He didn't know when he would be able to go to the front line next time. It was said that the war at the front was very intense. He didn't know if he could accomplish any merit with his current strength.
As he was lost in thought, Barrick's eyelids finally couldn't resist and closed.
