Chapter 107: The Barbarian's Dilemma

Kane's spit out name made Xue Hua stunned, he still remembered this old woman, of course, it was a memory from the game in his previous life.

In the previous game, the old woman was the first NPC the player came into contact with upon arrival at Harogas, and in the game, her dwelling was also filled with a large number of wounded barbarian wounded and sick people.

"Oh, Lord Kane still remembers my insignificant old woman... It's a great honor. ”

A smile twinked at the corners of Marat's mouth as she nodded respectfully at Kane.

"Uh... Old man Kane, do you know her? ”

"Well, she was very young when I visited, and I really never expected that I would see her again in this situation."

Kane glanced at Xue Hua, with a look of memory in his eyes.

"I taught her alchemy and herbalism, so when she brought it up and looked at me, I remembered it all at once."

"Uh... Oh, you are really peach and plum all over the world......" Xue Hua rolled his eyes speechlessly, these old and sophisticated guys can really find friends anywhere......

"Ahem... That, Marat, what happened in the city of Harlogas, why didn't we see half of us all this way? ”

Kane coughed a little embarrassed, ignoring Xue Hua's teasing comments, and just followed Marat to ask about Harlogas.

"Recently, the demon army of Baal has been attacking our fortress, and the leader's forces are already stretched thin, and the pride of the leader and elders makes them unwilling to accept help from others too soon, so they have no choice but to mobilize everyone in the city who can hold weapons to help defend the city.

There are still a few places in the city where there are still people, and there are only a few wounded soldiers' stations, including the old woman and me, as well as the blacksmith shop in Rasuk and the logistics station and the council of elders in Anya.

However, the Council of Elders is now largely dead in name only, and most of the Elders sacrificed their lives to defend Harogas during a raid on the city launched by the Evil Pact more than ten days ago.

They have used their life force to weave a safe zone near Harlogas so that those with the evil powers of hell can no longer approach our fortress.

At present, there is only one person left in the Council of Elders, Nilasek, and of course, our leader Qualkek. ”

Marat took a roll of gauze from the table beside him and began to dress and change the dressing of the wounded soldier on the ground who was wailing incessantly.

She is very skillful in her hands, and she has a gentle and calm look on her face.

"......I see," Kane nodded, and the expression on his face became much more serious, he didn't expect that the situation in Harlogas would be so serious all of a sudden, that even ordinary barbarian clansmen were sent into battle.

This is a very damaging matter to the foundation of the nation, and no tribal leader will make such a decision unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Just the day before yesterday, the leader finally put aside his pride and accepted the assistance of the council in the face of the continuous pressure of the demon army and the successive defeats on the frontal battlefield, but due to the short time, a large number of reinforcements have not yet arrived, only a few professionals from other kingdoms have rushed over, and they have cooperated with the original professionals in the city to join the battlefield on the bloody hills, and the leader has also formulated a series of rewards and punishments for professionals."

Saying this, Mara glanced at Xue Hua and nodded.

"The leader just reminded us last night that Lord Kane might bring a professional to the city today, but in the early hours of this morning, the demon army outside the city began to attack the fortress again, so I didn't have time to arrange someone to meet the two of you, and I ask you to forgive me."

"It's nothing, it's mainly because I'm new to your place, and I don't know the way......"

Xue Hua took the cup full of warm fragrant fruit syrup handed by Marat and took a sip, the familiar sweet, warm and fragrant fragrance instantly dispelled the chill on his body.

The barbarian tribes prefer to drink spirits to other beverages, but there are still some markets for fragrant fruit here, which are used to entertain other guests who are not accustomed to the barbarian tribe's drink.

However, the fragrant fruits here are all alpine fragrant fruit seedlings planted by the barbarian clan, and they are the same variety as the one that Xue Hua often drank in the Rogge camp after he first came to this world, and it is naturally a kind of drink at this moment.

"It's good that the two of you don't blame me, my wife and I are dirty and messy here, I'm afraid I'll snub the distinguished guests, you two should be patient for the time being, and wait until the wind and snow outside the house will rest for a while, and I will ask my granddaughter to send the two to our leader, okay?"

Mara nodded with a kind smile, turned around and wanted to pull two stone benches over for Xue Hua and Kane to sit down, but found that there was almost no room for people to stand in the hall, where was there still a place to sit?

So he could only apologize to Xue Hua and Kane with a little embarrassment.

"You don't have to be like this, we are not a noble guest, these soldiers are all injured to protect their homes and families, compared to them, we will not lose a piece of meat even if we stand for a while."

Xue Hua shook his head, signaling that Marat didn't have to be like this, the scene in front of him was shocking, many of the injured young barbarians in the hall had broken hands and feet, these people were not professionals and mercenaries, and there was no way to grow back the broken hands and feet.

While the few people were talking, the wind and snow outside the house slowly became less faceless, and Marat changed the gauze for the two wounded soldiers with broken legs, looked up and looked out, and then shouted to the inner room: "Mina! ”

A girl in a fur jacket, a scarf on her chest covered with medicine stains, and a hammer in her right hand lifted the curtain and walked out.

She had the childishness of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl on her face, and although the blood of the barbarian clan made her tall, everyone could see that this was a little girl who had not yet reached adulthood.

"The snow has stopped outside, you take these two distinguished guests to meet the chief."

"But, Grandma, the medicine in the pot ......"

"Leave me alone, don't worry, it's okay."

"Well, okay, then I'll go and get back quickly."

Mina nodded, ripped off her apron, ran to Xue Hua and Kane in two steps, grabbed their hands and ran out.

"Let's go, there's still a lot of work to do in the wounded station!"

"Mina! Don't be naughty! ”

Marat was afraid that she would annoy Kane and Xue Hua by being disrespectful to the two, so she followed behind and admonished them repeatedly.

"Don't worry, grandma, I know!"

However, when Mina's voice came again, it was far away.

"This girl, her temper is as reckless as her father's, I just hope that she won't get into trouble... Alas......"

Marat shook his head, but he didn't know what sad things he remembered all of a sudden, and the look on his face suddenly darkened.

She sighed softly, turned and walked into the room, slamming the door behind her backhand.

Before closing the door, a faint sigh slowly floated out of the crack in the door.

"Hank, Fanny, Mina is very well-behaved and sensible, you don't have to worry about her.

May the Fathers bless you ......"
