Chapter 159: Elven Herbs
It's a new day, and the workers in the camp get up early in the morning and start busy under the command of Horn and others.
According to Rollin's plan, they will move to the basin today, rest for the night, and start burning the forest the next day, then cut down the trees and start building houses in the new town, which is a big project.
"Rollin, who are those two women?" While eating breakfast, Horn quietly asked Rollin that although he had only arrived a few days earlier than Rollin, during this time, he had already figured out the situation in the camp and had an impression of everyone in the camp.
So he immediately noticed these two strange women dressed as wanderers.
"Two friends. It's hard to say who you really are. They are all good at archery, and they can be guards or something. "Rollin drank the polenta, although he was already a lord of the land, he was not particular about eating and drinking.
Horn is a human spirit, since Rollin said so, he won't ask much, there are so many people in the camp, two more is inconspicuous.
After breakfast, the team set off for the mountains.
At this time, the sun rises, and the summer sun is very hot, and within ten minutes of appearing, you can feel the temperature around you rise significantly.
"Hurry, hurry!" The mercenaries urged them to walk more at this time in the morning, otherwise by noon, the scorching sun would almost scorch them.
The workers also knew that they were powerful, the men carried cooking utensils, the craftsmen carried equipment, some drove mules carrying grain, some carried tents, and nearly hundreds of people walked mightily towards the basin.
Luo Lin and the others walked directly to the front of the team.
Although he knew that the temperature would rise to unbearable levels after a while, he was still wearing heavy armor just in case. The sword and shield did not leave him. to ensure that we can cope with the unexpected.
Selena and Luphy followed him. The snake demon Narosa also followed, it was broad daylight, the sun was blazing, and the snake demon didn't look so terrifying, after she appeared, it caused some panic, but was quickly suppressed by the mercenaries.
Other mercenaries are scattered throughout the team, maintaining order in the team.
Under the blazing sun. The temperature rose rapidly, and the group climbed less than five miles of mountain road, and at eight or nine o'clock, the workers were already sweating like pulp and panting like cows.
Rollin was also uncomfortable, his new battle armor was black, and when the sun broke, it was a big stove, and he was also sweating, and the smock inside the armor was already soaked. The whole person is like being immersed in water, and it is extremely uncomfortable.
In the big summer. It's hard work.
But despite this, no one complained. On the one hand, Luo Lin gave enough compensation, on the other hand, Gaoshan Town itself is very poor, the people here usually do not have enough to eat, do not have warm clothing, and they are very hard-working, and this little work is nothing to them today.
As for the mercenaries, not to mention, they defected to Rollin, and now they are building a territory, and when the territory is completed, they are the lord's own soldiers, this is running for the future!
Selena and Luphy both followed Rollin, wearing cloaks to protect them from the sun. The two women are also hot, and the scorching sunlight will not distinguish between races.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to rest and cool down by a mountain stream, Selena hid in the shade and drank water, and whispered to Lu Fei: "Now it seems that the human race is quite capable of suffering. Look at this guy Luo Lin, he is still wearing heavy armor on a hot day, and he is still holding such a thick shield, at least more than 100 kilograms. It's hard to imagine that this guy is still running around and directing. ”
"It's a passionate race." Lu Fei smiled: "But not everyone is like this, those pampered princes and nobles can't bear this hardship, they are greedy and conceited, and their eyes are empty, which is very terrifying." ”
"That's what you're talking about. Once upon a time, we elves also had such a history, and those high-ranking elves were simply useless. Selena nodded in agreement.
As he was saying this, Luo Lin's shout was heard not far away: "Alright, let's go, we have to enter the basin before dark!" ”
The workers wiped the sweat from their faces, and a group of clanging noises set off again.
From the hills to the basin, there are about 30 miles of mountain roads, and everyone walked for a day, until the sun set and the sky turned dark, and the group arrived at their destination.
It was the only river in the basin on the edge of the river, and the men and cooks immediately began to raise a campfire to prepare dinner, while the rest began to erect tents, and the mercenaries were busy arranging all sorts of defenses around the camp.
Rollin wasn't very tired, but it was hot enough, and one day, he was almost baked by the oven of the Mountain Guardian.
When I got to the river, I took off my combat boots and poured water directly out of my boots, all sweaty. He called for help to take off the battle armor, and the clothes inside were directly soaked.
Luo Lin didn't care about any etiquette, so he found a secluded corner a little, took his battle helmet, scooped the river water and poured it on his body, washing away the heat of the day.
In fact, with Narosa, Selena and the others around, he didn't need to wear heavy battle armor all the time, and the reason why he did this was mainly to hone his body and will.
While they were washing, suddenly a quarrel came from the other side of the river, and Rollin turned his head to look at it, and couldn't help but cover his forehead with a headache.
I saw a slow stream, Narosa was directly Selena in the water, Narosa's strength was not as strong as Selena, but in the water, she had an advantage, her arms and snake tail were wrapped around Selena, preventing her from getting up in the water.
The two of them just rolled around in the water, splashing everywhere, and the fight was extremely fierce.
Rollin wanted to step forward to stop him, but was stopped by Lu Fei: "Don't, let them fight, I think they are all measured." At least not with weapons. ”
Turning his head, he saw Lu Fei standing behind her, she was leaning against the stone wall by the river, looking at Luo Lin with a smile: "You look much stronger than before." ”
This is true, as the strength continues to grow, Rollin's body becomes stronger and stronger, and he doesn't feel anything in the battle armor, but after taking it off, he can see that the muscles in his whole body are tense, as if they are about to explode. It is full of a sense of power.
Rollin smiled. Some embarrassed to tie the waist and crotch as a cover for shame. He changed the subject and said, "Are you sure they won't play well?" ”
"No, don't worry. Selena's strength is very strong, and she is now quite restrained. ”
As if in response to Lufi's words, Selena broke free from Narosa's restraints in the current, rolled over, reflexively pressed the snake demon into the water, and then shouted, "How is it." Are you convinced! ”
Narosa struggled several times without success, and finally gave up, lying in the water panting, and served: "Count you awesome!" Let me go! ”
This scene made Rollin stunned, which completely broke his impression of the elf, he had always thought that the elf was reserved, but Selena made her see the other side, this woman is full of unruly wildness.
The female elf had no regard for her ripped clothes and her muscular but always feminine body, which was unabashedly exposed to the air, ...... This...... Thankfully it's a secluded corner. Not many people saw it.
Luffy stepped up and took the helmet from Rollin's hand. smiled: "She is like this, very bold and free." Well, turn your eyes back to it, staring at a woman's body like this is not what a gentleman should do. Come, lean here, I'll scoop you water. ”
Rollin retracted his gaze a little embarrassed, no way, Selena's figure is very perfect and full of vitality, compared to those models who have been photographed in her previous life, there is no comparison at all. Especially now, soaking wet, half-covered and half-exposed, as long as a normal man is attracted, Rollin is no exception.
"I'm sorry, I lost my temper." Rollin felt a little hot in his cheeks.
Lu Fei was scooping water to rinse Rollin's hair, and she grinned when she heard this: "You are exactly the same as before, as far as I know, the nobles of the human race should not be as pure as you." ”
Rollin was speechless, of course he knew about the erosion of the nobles of Vendôme, but he only had Vianna in his heart, and he was single-minded about trying to get close to her. And he has been dealing with the Destruction Miè sect, so how can he have time to do other things.
Thinking of Vianna, he suddenly felt another heartache, and he suddenly asked a little strangely, "What about Ottoria last night?" Why haven't you come back yet? ”
"She? She is a green dragon, and this trip is to find Vianna, because she says that Vianna may be the daughter of the king of the green dragon who was robbed by thieves five hundred years ago. If she hadn't come back yet, she should have guessed correctly. ”
"What happens if you guess right?"
"Of course, it's to take Vianna back to the Moonlight Continent, I think, they should be in the Moonlight Continent by now." Lu Fei laughed.
Vianna turned out to be the daughter of the King of the Green Dragon? She actually left Vendôme? A burst of loss surged in Luo Lin's heart, feeling that everything he had done was meaningless, what was the use of him building this territory? It's better to give up.
But then he saw Horn, who was standing on the river beach in the distance, directing the workers to work, and Luisa, Harrington, Wolf, Edrimand and the others were not idle, everyone was full of energy, and their faces were full of hope for the future.
Looking at these friends, Rollin felt ashamed in his heart, what was he thinking! With so many people following him and spending all their youth for him, and yet he wants to run away for his own selfish interests, where are these friends and followers?
It's a coward's move, a complete bastard!
Spit on himself in his heart, Rollin turned to Lu Fei and said, "Remember the werewolves in Moonlight Town?" ”
"Never forget Jì." Lu Fei smiled.
"It's time to let them into my territory." It's a powerful force.
"No problem, Selena and I can bring them over."
"Good. I also have a magician friend in Vendôme, who I mentioned earlier, Davi, who will be coming over in a few days. I have an idea. ”
"Tell me about it." Lu Fei is colorful.
"Soon after, I will recruit and train soldiers, but it will take at least three years to train soldiers to the regular army, which is too slow, and the regular army is still not strong enough. I hope to speed up the process with some herbal medicine, which of course has to be harmless. ”
"I know a lot of potions with this kind of effect, but the herbs used are all from the Moonlight Continent, but this is a minor issue. I was able to learn about the properties of various plants, and soon I was able to find alternatives in the area. Don't worry, I'll work well with that magician. ”
Lu Fei understood what Luo Lin meant, the elves' alchemy was very wonderful, and it could turn decay into magic, but this method could not be exposed, and if there was a magician to help, it could be covered up in the name of the magician, and it would not arouse suspicion.
"Thank you, Luphy, you came at the right time." Rollin sighed with emotion.
Now that Vianna is gone, and all the past pursuits are gone, then, from today, he will begin to pursue his own glory wholeheartedly. (To be continued......) R1292
