Warlord: King of All Clans

After camping for a night in a cleared open space and crossing the territory of the ogre men, the caravan finally entered the territory of the human race in the north.

This place quickly left the realm of wilderness, with endless farmland on both sides of the road, and only some oak, chestnut, almond and other fruit-producing forests preserved.

Especially the oak forests. Both the northern humans and the aliens once relied on their fruits to survive the cold winter and developed a primitive worship for them that was not comparable to ordinary fruit trees.

Now that the wheat in the fields has been harvested, farmers are rushing to replant and then plant root crops such as cassava.

Seeing this scene of peace and prosperity, outsiders would never imagine that this place was a wilderness occupied by foreign races two years ago.

Well, there are still foreign races occupying the land, but no matter what kind of foreign race they are, they have to learn how to farm.

Because they were going to Hewan Town, Ivan did not lead the delegation to Hekou Town, but instead crossed the wilderness east of the Goutou Artificial Workshop area and went directly to Hewan.

A new road has been built here that leads directly to the river bend, which is twenty or thirty miles closer than taking the detour through Hekou Town.

While walking on the road, a loud noise would occasionally be heard from the valley, echoing in the empty wilderness.

That was the sound of the ogres blasting mines, or the sound of the River Bay Artillery Workshop test-firing artillery. The nearby villagers had long been accustomed to it.

But the delegation from the Western Territory was not used to it. Not only did Arina Mishe and others look cautious, but their mounts were also restless.

The cannons of Fort Buck have embedded the deterrent power into their bones.

I was almost home. After going around the stone hill in front, I would enter Hewan Peninsula and return to Hewan Town. Suddenly, there was a noise in the bushes in front.

“Ahhhhhh!”

A giant slug over one meter long, propped up its body with its slender tentacles, stood upright from the left side of the road, screaming madly, and disappeared into the woods on the right.

As he ran, he raised his two small front tentacles high in the air, and swung them wildly along with his slug tentacles, looking extremely crazy.

Arina pulled the reins hard, and it took her a while to come back to her senses. "What is that? I must be seeing things!"

Although Ivan had never seen a snail elf, he was very calm as he was well-informed. He stroked his chin and judged, "I guess this is a snot man."

"Guess? Snot...person?" Arina Mishe felt her eyes go dark.

But before she could complain, the bushes on the left continued to make noises, and an even more peculiar light green humanoid creature, also raised its hands, shook its head, and ran across the road like a madman.

“Ahhhhhh!”

"What is this again? A goblin? A troglodyte?"

Ivan made a quick assessment, "I guess it's a tortoise in its shell."

As the two strange creatures ran over, a group of kobold cubs, orc cubs, troll cubs, and human cubs followed behind them, holding wooden swords, spears, swords and clubs, shouting and chasing after them.

A groundhog was running at the back, grunting. When it saw the delegation stopping, it squatted down and greeted them, "Brother Ivan! And... that fierce sister, hello!"

As she stopped, a huge ball of flesh rolled over from behind and collided with her.

"Obi! Obi!"

In an instant, Arina felt like she had come to a magical place.

She had seen many foreign races in the West, but this place was even more fantastic.

After two days, the delegation led by Arina Mishe finally arrived at Hewan Town.

The city walls of Hewan Town can no longer accommodate the growing population, and the new houses built this year are basically outside the city walls.

The Lord's Mansion also carried out land control and street planning in a timely manner to prevent Hewan Town from becoming a hornet's nest like a kobold village.

So what Arina Mishe saw was a small town without walls.

It is located on a river bay peninsula. After several expansions, the canal cut the entire peninsula and turned it into an island.

Both the canal and the Anzeno River have cement and brick-and-stone reinforced embankments, so there is no need to worry about the rising water levels in spring and summer breaking the river banks and flooding the peninsula.

The small workshops that once existed in the town have also been moved outside the peninsula and turned into assembly line workshops.

There is no industrial area in the town now, it is basically residential and commercial areas.

The Anzeno River and the Hewan Avenue beside it are constantly visited by foreign merchants who come to Hewan Town to trade or consume.

At the highest point of the peninsula are the ever-expanding lord's houses and the towering wizard's tower.

This wizard tower is not very tall, but compared to the two- or three-story buildings in the town, its height of 25 meters still stands out.

With the special dye from the Dog Head Workshop, the Lord's Mansion also painted it pure white, and now it is also a beautiful scenery.

Even standing outside the peninsula, you can feel the prosperity of the town.

Arina Mishe had never been to the North, and couldn't help asking, "Is this the city of Isenbol?"

According to the understanding of the grassland people, such a city would not be able to gather such popularity without a hundred years.

Ivan laughed.

"No, this is the river bend."

As the lord, Leo received the envoys from Arina Mishe at the River Bay House.

Olivia saw the agile, wild and heroic Arina Mishe from afar and immediately felt threatened. She quickly brought up her father and asked Uliyan, as the Lord of the River Bay, to be responsible for receiving the Western Border delegation.

But Uliyang had long lost his enterprising spirit. He spent his days bragging and playing chess with the old people in the village, or reading and watching plays to cultivate his sentiments. He didn't want to take care of anything at all.

He did not consider his daughter's thoughts and just shook his head. "Now is the time for you young people. Let Leo make his own decision."

Olivia had no choice but to take charge personally, sitting on the lord's throne and watching Leo receive the delegation.

Olivia now wears simple and elegant noblewoman's attire. She is blessed with the identities of the Mistress of the River Bay and the Goddess of Holy Light. She has been handling government affairs for a long time and has developed enough dignity.

She was so young, but when she sat on the lord's throne, she didn't smile, and Leo and the others didn't dare to laugh either.

Only when she laughs can the people in Rio laugh along with her.

Arina Mishe's delegation was small in number. Apart from a few escort knights, there were only a few maids serving her.

Arina Mishe stood in the lord's hall, looking at Leo and his wife at the top, as well as the generals of the river bay surrounding them. They were all extraordinary people, and she couldn't help feeling awe in her heart.

The military force at Buck Fortress is just the tip of the iceberg of River Bay Territory.

"I am the daughter of Slatu Tarhan, the wolf girl of the grassland, Arina Mishe Tarhan, the envoy of this peace negotiation. I would like to greet Sir Mondo and the noble lady."

Leo nodded, "Arina... Magic Shooting? Mud Magic? Ah, I'll just call you Arina!"

Although the two places are not far apart, there is still a big difference between the accent of the Western Border and the accent of the Northern Border. The pronunciation of Arina Mishe is a bit difficult to pronounce, and Leo failed to pronounce it correctly after reading it twice.

Arina asked expressionlessly, "Is it okay if I call you a dick?"
