Not a Witch

"Forget it." Seeing the rare smile on Niya's face these days, Lorraine Hill no longer cared about this matter, and then asked some other things.

Originally, she came to the grassland this time only to complete the school tasks, but now she suddenly discovered another opportunity.

Clancia has just ended the civil war, and everything is waiting to be done. Whether it is reclaiming fields, expanding roads, building and repairing cities, a lot of manpower is required.However, there are so many orcs on the grassland, and they are physically strong, which can be regarded as high-quality labor.

She didn't know much about it before, but after visiting for a while now, and taking the experience of the rabbit ears as a reference, she felt that Clancia could slowly absorb some orcs.

During this period of time at school, she also learned a lot about Lunui's situation from some students. Now the internal contradictions of the empire are gradually becoming prominent, and class solidification leads to conflicts and undercurrents. Used to relieve internal pressure and excess population.

Crancia had only been established not long ago, and the Seven Xuehua Kingdoms were also torn apart. If they wanted to resist the invasion of Green, then these orcs were part of the force they had to fight for.Instead of rushing to deal with it at that time, it is better to get in touch slowly now, communicate and get familiar with each other.It is best to integrate these orcs into Crancia like the Rabbit Ears and become a part of it, so that they can work together and fight together.

After all, there is not much time left. Recently, Frost Rose has begun to participate in the internal political struggle between Black Rock and Falcon, and is preparing to pull these two countries into his arms.Crancia can't do nothing here either, relying on the Rabbit Ears as an example and example, it should reassure the other orcs on the grassland, and communicate more and slowly break down the barriers, not only the orcs no longer need to stay here In this desolate land, Clancia can greatly enrich itself and expand its territory by nearly double.

This can be described as a win-win result.

What we have to do now is to break down the barriers. Now that we are here, let’s start with the little sheephorns, gradually get to know each other, understand and integrate with each other, and then gradually arm Clancia with the power of industrialization. Look at this vast sea of ​​stars.

ps: I am very sorry, I have not written very well recently, and I have been out of state, which has disappointed everyone.

I will take a day off tomorrow. I want to reflect and summarize. In the future, I will try my best to write 3000 words per chapter. The reading experience of 2000 words is indeed not very good, as many readers have said.

If you have any ideas, just mention them, and I will read them.

Finally, thank you for your continued support

Chapter 99 Flame Conference

The White Wolf Clan, 50 miles away from the Yangjiao Clan, in the central tent, the patriarch and other leaders are discussing matters.

"Report to the patriarch, the lion's mane convoy to the west has been tracked down." A rider in a gray-white leather jacket opened the door curtain and came in.

"Oh, what's the reason? The Lionmane tribe has been in the west, why did they suddenly send a convoy of more than a hundred people to bring so many things to our east." The white wolf patriarch wearing snow-white sable fur sat on the bone-tooth throne and looked at the people who came in. knife rider.

"They are escorting a batch of goods. It is said that they are the spoils of the classmate of the girl from the Sheep Horns."

"Oh, it's interesting. According to the hyena's investigation, most of the shipment is probably meat. Did they hunt some giant beast?"

"Father, give me 300 warriors, and I can snatch this batch of meat and let the clan eat meat." A young man stood up. He had a pair of white spotted wolf ears and fierce eyes.

"Second brother, let's concentrate on getting his wife back, you don't have to worry about such things." A gloomy voice sounded.

Following the voice, it was a young man trimming his nails with a knife. He was Walker, the fifth son of the White Wolf patriarch, and he had a gloomy and cold style on weekdays.

After the voice fell, the standing young man directly pulled out the knife, and the cold long knife reflected the firelight in the room, refracting bursts of white light.

"Walker, when is it your turn to speak?" The patriarch's second son said word by word, the backlog of power in the past frightened the leaders in the big tent.

"Oh, the second brother is so powerful and majestic. Isn't it nice to see my lovely wife lying in someone else's arms?" The gloomy young man continued to stir the heartstrings of his second brother Gu Tuo, who was angry His face was blood red, and his sharp magic power was ready to go, like a beast, choosing to devour people.

"Walker, Guto, be quiet." The chief patriarch clasped his fingertips on the armrest of the throne and made a crisp sound, letting the two sons who were about to fight to sit down for a while before continuing to ask.

"The little girl from the Yangjiao tribe has only been in school for half a year, and she is not a genius. She is no more than Sequence 3 at most, so her classmate has to inquire about it."

"Yes, patriarch."

"The Sheep Horns have only a small number of people, and they can't make any waves. If it weren't for the special instructions of the great shaman last year, their clan had a student of Emenas, and they would have been wiped out by other clans in this year's situation. "

"However, their good days are coming to an end."

-----

The half-person-high Xinzhu grass undulates in the wind, the white fluffy grass spikes are constantly swaying, and the warm yellow grass sea is peaceful.Under the clear blue sky, two girls stood in the sea of ​​grass.

One of them held a wooden stick and swung it vigorously. There were bursts of flames on the rotating wooden stick. Every time they struck each other, a wave of scorching air would rush towards the opponent, making the opponent's breathing uncomfortable and his heart dry.

It's a pity that her opponent was the girl with long blue hair. The scorching air waves scattered in the air flow, but the soft hair was rolled up by the wind, fluttering in the air, and then turned into little sparks, dissipating without a trace.

The girl with long cyan hair used the wooden sword in her hand like flowing clouds and flowing water, following arcs and unloading force, turning the attack of the horned girl invisible.

The two moved around in the grass. After a long time, the girl with horns was exhausted, out of breath, and there was no more light on the stick.

"Let's stop here today." The green-haired girl said, and then put down the sword in her hand.

"Well, Lorraine." The shorn girl nodded and stopped feeling a little disappointed.

"It's much better than yesterday, Niya." Lorraine said encouragingly, holding Nya's hand, and then took her to a hillside to sit down.

Originally, after beating the devil pig, Lorraine was going back to Tixilan Mountains, but before going back, he had to help Nya solve the tribe's problems first.

The grassland is not peaceful, and there are often conflicts among them. Now the Yangjiao tribe is too weak, and Niya herself has not yet grown up, so she cannot protect her tribe, so the situation is not stable.

In another two months, Niya will go back to school again. During this period, the surrounding situation must be stabilized before she can leave with confidence.

The system task requirement is to train a few legendary gold-level transcendents. Several people in the Lorraine Hill community, Yeling, Bumansha, and Kafra, have gradually shown results after teaching during this period of time.

Needless to say, Bulmansha's talent can reach this level even without Lorraine's help. Yeling can achieve it with a little effort, and Kafra will take a long time, but this child is very hardworking, but Don't worry too much.

In this way, three of the 6 places have been confirmed. Alena and Letis in the same dormitory are very talented, but they have their own pursuits. Lorraine Hill is not so good at being a teacher. It is a matter of forcing others to teach. Very bad thing.

And Niya is the fourth one chosen by Lorraine. During this period of time, Niya has to be cultivated, and she must be promoted to Sequence 4 first, so that Lorraine Hill can leave with confidence.

It's not that I have to complete this task, and I have to make Niya stronger, but isn't it a joy to help friends around me solve problems?Pursuing the maximization of benefits in everything, living like this is also very tiring.

The secret of happiness is not to be number one, but to do what you love.Rather than looking for a strange genius who doesn't know his character, Lorraine prefers to help the ordinary and simple friends around him.

"Niya, have you thought about which sequence you are going to advance to? Magic, dragon, angel, or something else?"

Looking at the girl with short brown hair and horns, Lorraine suddenly remembered that he had seen a certain kind of Pokémon in the game in the previous life, with various evolution directions.

He has light brown hair all over his body, except for a mass of white on his chest. He is lying on the ground with gemstones of various colors in front of him. He looks left and right with his little head, not knowing which one to choose.

Niya and Eevee are very similar, is she going to evolve into Fire Eevee?Lorraine thought.

"Also, the Fire Festival is about to start the day after tomorrow, is Nya ready?"

"Well, I'm almost ready." Niya nodded. In fact, she can advance at any time now. It is easy to switch from the original sequence to other sequences before Sequence 5. The only problem now is which path to choose.

"Don't be too anxious. The opponents in the first few rounds of the Flame Conference may not be very strong. You still have time to think about it." Luo Lan said reassuringly.

The Flame Conference at the Fire Festival is a competition for the younger generation on the grassland to communicate and compete. The winner will receive high glory and allow his tribe to obtain the right to use a high-quality pasture in the Gufia Alliance for 5 years , other tribes are not allowed to invade.

This can also be regarded as a reward within the Gufia Tribal Alliance. Usually, these public pastures are distributed by the shamans through joint discussion, and are used to reward meritorious persons and appease some damaged tribes.

In order for her tribe to live a stable life in the next few years and not be invaded by other tribes, Niya must get to the top three. Only in this way can the weak Yangjiao tribe be preserved, otherwise encounters like the old man Ketan will happen one after another.

This is not alarmist talk. Among the Seven Snow Kingdoms, only the Westerly Plain in the middle has a large number of grains, and because of the civil unrest in the Westerly last year, the grain production in various places has dropped sharply. Clancia is currently too busy to take care of itself, and it is difficult to support the grasslands in the north. And the Gufiya Grassland, which is short of food, is bound to intensify the conflict, and the precarious peaceful time may be gone forever.

And once the blade of hatred is picked up, only when one side is completely down can the other side show a margin of mercy.

Chapter 100 White and blue colored glaze

The grand fire festival has begun.

In the endless pitch-black wilderness, a long dragon made up of torches wandered across the land, and all the major tribes on the grassland gathered here. The gigantic bull drum more than ten meters high shook the sky, and the surging drum sound seemed to be beating on the Your heart is normal and trembles everywhere.

Towering pillars of fire were lit on the ground one by one, turning the night into daylight. The orcs on horseback turned around among the pillars of fire, shouted the name of Kedaren, and then gathered in the center of the meeting.

The huge stone pillars nearly [-] meters high roughly form a circle, and in the middle is a rough altar built with stone slabs, and a shaman stands on each stone pillar, and as he recites ancient spells, the wilderness The flames from the upper pillar of fire rose gradually, and with the airflow formed lines of fire that gathered above the altar, then condensed into one place, fell crashingly, and hit the altar, forming a burning fireball.

Afterwards, the shamans set up a magic circle to let the magic power continue to gather and conduct, so that the flame would not be extinguished.This is the first round of the conference, the fire of the earth.

Afterwards, a flame contest will be held. The champion and the top three will cut their wrists, drip a small bowl of blood, and ignite a human fire with the help of extraordinary magic power. On the last day of the conference, shamans will lead the ceremony to gather the power of the sun The magical power of the sky forms the fire of the sky, and then the three fires merge into one. This is the flame that symbolizes all life and glory.

The fire of glory that dispels the endless cold and brings life and prosperity has been the object of worship of the orcs since ancient times. The customs inherited from the Madfang Empire are still followed by the orcs today.

--------

On one night of the Fire Festival, after the main ceremony, the orcs set up large and small tents in the wilderness, and in the area near the center of the assembly, some vendors from various tribes came to sell and exchange some things.

Lorraine and Niya walked in the night market, looking at the utensils sold by these vendors, including bone flutes, lifelike wood carvings, simple scimitars with horns, and copper-patterned nameplates.

The patterns on these nameplates are various, some are animals, some are the sun, and some have words on them.Although many people think orcs are savage, this impression is not accurate.

In ancient times, the orcs also had a glorious era. At that time, they used all kinds of exquisite copperware, had their own characters, and recorded many myths and legends.Many of these stories are still circulating today.

For example, the life of Kedaren, the king of fangs, the battle of chasing the dragon, and even the legend of the war against the Red Empire. They are used to engraving these stories and legends on bronze wares, and the copper pattern nameplate is also a symbol of status.

"Hello, how do you sell this?" The girl with long cyan hair bent over to pick up an old bronze medal. Her blue-glazed eyes and pretty face made the leopard-eared orc stunned for a while before slowing down. Get used to it slowly.

"Hi, this bronze medal sells for 2 gold coins." He cautiously quoted a high price.

"This one is a bit expensive." After finishing speaking, the girl of the Sheephorn tribe next to her pulled Laloran's cyan ponytail on the side. She couldn't tell if she was trying to remind him, or simply wanted to touch that soft long hair.

As she spends more time with Lorraine recently, Niya is not as restrained as she used to be, and occasionally fights with Lorraine, grabbing her cyan hair.

"Okay, here it is." Lorraine did not counter the price, but directly took out two extraordinary gold coins.

"Okay...Okay, thank you." He took the gold coin with some trepidation, and the leopard-eared young man quickly thanked him. He never thought that the other party was so generous, and the price was indeed a bit high.

"It's nothing." Lorraine shook his head slightly, and the cyan ponytail swayed accordingly, and then took a closer look at it with the bronze medal.

The corners of this mottled bronze medal are quite worn, and there are many scratches, but the pattern drawn on the bronze medal can still be seen from the remaining lines.On the altar with the sun pattern, there is a woman tied to a fire pillar, surrounded by 5 priests, and wandering human phantoms in the sky.

Due to the long history, many of the details have become blurred, and it can only be known from a small amount of text on the back. This is probably the story of the middle period of the Madfang Empire, because the priest's robe on the picture has a totem of the sun.After Kedarun established the Madfang Empire, the totems on the early priests and shamans were mostly fangs and beasts, and it was not until the middle and late stages that the totems changed to flames and the sun.

"Does Lorraine like this very much?" Niya asked curiously, seeing the girl thinking carefully.

"Not at all, I'm just interested in the things described above." Lorraine turned his head and explained, then put away the bronze medal and continued to move forward.

In the hustle and bustle of the beastmen's venue, the sound of music came out in front of them. Loraine and Niya stepped forward and found a group of humans gathered there. Some of them were bards, some were businessmen, some were travelers, and some were hired. guard.

The poet is sitting on the roof of the car, playing the situr in his hand, and his partner is beating the snare drum and singing.Surrounding it is a group of humans and orcs who are admiring.These humans came to Gufia for trade, and there were also some bards accompanying them. They took advantage of the chamber of commerce to sell and sing here to make money.

The song started relatively slowly, and the lively and jumping notes made the venue gradually quiet down, and then became excited again as the beat progressed.

...

Release comes from the heart, from the cry of the heart

then you'll definitely start thanking

The hope that spreads in this wonderful world

Inhale rivers, clouds, and dewdrops

Poke a small hole with your fingertips and plant a sapling

let it germinate and thrive
