Chapter 17: Fooling the Neighbors

With experience treating Meloyd and Jessica, Klose is still confident about the drugs in the supermarket.

As long as the young son of the Ink Wolf Clan patriarch is not terminally ill, Klose is confident that he can find the right medicine to cure him in the supermarket.

Now that he knew what the other party needed, Klose immediately organized a team and prepared to follow Lucy to the territory of the neighbor of the Ink Wolf Clan.

The Ink Wolf Clan is a race that has existed for many years on the Lane Road, but has always been very marginal.

They worship the wolf totem and the moon goddess, believing that they are descendants of the moon goddess and that the wolf is their patron deity.

The Ink Wolf Clan has lived around the banks of the Moon River for generations, and it can be regarded as indisputable.

Klose personally led the team this time, accompanied by the girl Lucy, the dark elf Nightwind, two guard soldiers, and the inseparable armor Kane.

On the other side of the castle, Captain Krett and Huporu were in charge of supervising the villagers and dwarves, respectively.

Meloyd, the spider, is responsible for guarding the castle.

After a half-day trek, the group came to a small stream.

Klose looked at the stream suspiciously, only to be told that it was one of the countless small tributaries of the Moon River.

Klose's brain twitched a few times, and he thought to himself, why don't I dig and divert water from here?

Lucy saw the appearance of her Royal Highness, and said timidly: "Your Highness... The tributaries of the Moon River only occur during the annual flood season, and the flow is very small, usually formed randomly along the ravines on the ground, with no fixed pattern. ”

Klose showed a clear look and smiled at the girl: "Hehe~ I just see that the water of this stream is very clear~ I don't mean anything else!" Let's move on! ”

When the group approached a large black rock, Lucy suddenly stopped.

"Temple. . . Your Highness, Laika and I meet here every time..."

The girl blushed a little, obviously it was still difficult to talk about such a tryst with her lover.

"Lucy!"

Behind the big rock, a lean young man with dark skin walked around.

His hair was jet black and muscular, his face was painted with oil paint, and he had a wolf totem tattoo on his arm.

This look reminded Klose of a movie, "Sedek Bale".

When he saw Klose and the others, the young man showed a wary look.

The girl Lucy ran to her lover's side, and the two exchanged words in a whisper.

Klose saw that the young man's mood fluctuated greatly, and he also showed a distrustful look at himself.

Klose can only bet now, betting that these two little lovers are more dominant.

The result did not disappoint Klose, and the girl Lucy finally convinced her lover to help him take her to meet the patriarch of the Ink Wolf Clan.

"I can agree to take you to the Patriarch, but you must unload your weapons!"

The boy named Laika was still cautious, and Klose showed enough sincerity.

"No problem~This is the minimum respect~"

He instructed two soldiers to stand outside and wait, and if something unexpected happened, he would give a signal to inform.

As for what Klose meant by "signal"... The two soldiers didn't know it.

Klose was not worried that the Ink Wolf Clan would be rough with him, after all, he was also the lord of a principality, and if the Ink Wolf Clan did something to him, it would be tantamount to declaring war on the entire Holger Principality, and obviously the result of doing so would be equivalent to suicide.

And Klose is also protected by the night wind and cursed armor, so even if he can't talk about running away, it's still no problem.

Following Laika, Klose felt himself slowly walking into a primitive tribe.

The life of the Ink Wolf Clan is basically still similar to the "Stone Age"...

Most of the people here live in tents made of tree branches, and many of the living utensils used are hewn out of stone, and few iron tools are seen.

When the people in the tribe saw Klose, they hid in fear.

Soon, several young men of the Ink Wolf Clan with spears in their hands ran out.

"Laika! How can you bring outsiders to our holy land?! ”

A young man shouted angrily and directly led people to surround Klose and the others.

"Gongga! Take it easy! He's Lucy's lord, and he says he can heal little Aesop! ”

"Will he heal? He's just a teenager, not a witch doctor! ”

Obviously, these people felt that Klose was hairless and did not take him seriously at all.

"Little Isolt has been in a coma for three days, even the Great Elder is helpless, how can he know how to heal a hairy boy!?"

Not only did the other party not believe that Klose would heal, but he also raised the spear in his hand and aimed it at Klose.

"That's Sulika!"

"Bang!"

The cloaked dark elf stepped forward, chanting the elven incantation in his mouth, and a hurricane blew up, instantly forcing the young men of the ink wolf clan back.

"Wizard!? He brought the Wizard!? ”

Several young men looked frightened, but this time they didn't dare to approach Klose again, and could only gather around from a distance.

"Gongga! What happened? ”

At this moment, an old man's voice sounded from behind everyone, and the young men of the Ink Wolf Clan instantly gained confidence.

"Great Elder! It's Laika! He brought outsiders to our holy land, and he was still a wizard! ”

"Wizard?"

"No, Great Elder! This is Lucy's lord! I'm here to see little Aesop! Laika hurriedly explained.

When the old man entered, Klose saw that it was an old man with a gray beard and a wooden staff.

Just from the many feathers on the top of his head, he could be recognizable from the many feathers on his head, and this person probably had a high status in the Ink Wolf Clan.

The old man didn't seem to have a good look in his eyes, and he walked up to Klose, squinting his eyes and looking up and down for a long time.

"Well.... This is not a wizard! It's just a teenager, what are you yelling about? ”

The Great Elder turned around, picked up the wooden staff in his hand, and struck Gonggar's body.

"Oops! Great Elder, it's that person! The one that wears a cape! ”

"Let you talk nonsense! That's a lady! Where did the wizard come from?! ”

The wooden staff in the Great Elder's hand kept falling until he beat Nagongga away.

Klose looked at the young man of the Ink Wolf Clan who had fled in the wilderness, and thought that this old man was very interesting!

"Hehe... Elderly... Forehead.. Great Elder, please forgive us for being uninvited, but I have heard that my own neighbor seems to be in trouble? So I made a special trip to bring medicine over to see if I could help. ”

The Grand Elder sighed and made a "please" gesture to Klose.

"Come with me, since we are Lucy's lord, we can't neglect my lord, please here."

Klose followed the Great Elder and slipped into a larger tent.

"Your Excellency, please be seated."

Seeing the old man so polite, Klose felt a little uncomfortable.

"That's... Great Elder, you don't need to be polite! Just call me Klose! I have come this time with my kindness and medicine, and I really hope to help you. ”

The old man didn't talk, but squinted his eyes and swept around Nightwind and Kane.

"Good intentions? .... But all I saw was a dark elf and.... A Demon King! ”

"Shhhhh

Klose was a bit surprised.

It would not be difficult for this bad-eyed Great Elder to recognize the cursed armor, but at a glance, he could see through the identity of the Night Wind.... That's a bit of a way!

"Hehe... It seems that the Great Elder is not an ordinary person either... One of the two people around me is my girlfriend and the other is my attendant, and it follows me wherever I go, and we have no malice. ”

Klose spread his hands and generously acknowledged.

"Well... No malice... I can feel it, but you said it would cure little Aesop... Forgive me for remaining skeptical. ”

The old man squinted, shook his head with a pout, and continued, "As the Great Elder of the Ink Wolf Clan's generation, I have exhausted my life's wisdom, and I have also tried to pray to the gods... Can.... Little Aesop is destined to return to the arms of the goddess this time..."

Klose frowned and asked, "Can you let me see the patient?" Maybe there's a way? ”

The Great Elder was silent in thought, and suddenly a sentence came out, "What is your purpose? ”

"This..."

Klose looked at the night wind, and then at the Great Elder: "Don't hide it from the Great Elder, in fact, we want to form an alliance with the Ink Wolf Clan and jointly develop the Moon River, so that the descendants of the Ink Wolf Clan can live a good life!" ”

"Oh? Let's live a good life? Why should we believe you? Or.... Why do you want to help us? ”

The Great Elder is obviously not easy to fool, and he can't get through it with just a big pie.

"Hehe..."

Klose smiled and said nothing, just pulled out a parchment map from his bosom.

"Great Elder, you... Can you make decisions on behalf of your patriarch and your people? ”

The Great Elder and Klose looked at each other, and suddenly smiled: "Hey, hey... The patriarchs are all chosen by me, do you think I can decide? ”

"Good!"

Klose spread out the map in front of the Great Elder, and it was a sketchy map of the Eagle Stream Canyon and its surroundings.

"Ming people don't say secret words, I will help the Ink Wolf Clan revitalize the tribe and bring you food, medicine, technology, and jobs. And the powerful Ink Wolf Clan must be loyal to me and guard the southwest of the territory for me! Make it impossible for other forces to enter my territory through the Moon River! So that I can safely attack this most mysterious forest in the whole continent..."

Klose finally drew a circle with his hand to the location of the "Demon Forest Abyss" on the map, and then slapped it.

The Great Elder raised his eyebrows and blurted out: "What a big ambition!" ”

"But... Lord, if I'm not mistaken, there has been no lord in Eagle Stream Canyon, wouldn't you have arrived recently? ”

Klose secretly said "Old Fox" and said in a low voice: "The Great Elder is a person who understands, and I am full of sincerity when I come this time. To tell you the truth, I am the most favored illegitimate son of the current king of Holger, and my father arranged for me here, and provided me with a lot of gold, silver and supplies, just to let me develop with peace of mind! ”

Nightwind sat to the side, glancing at Klose without a trace.

She didn't expect that her little boyfriend didn't use her brain at all to tell lies, as if she had rehearsed dozens of times.

I clearly didn't say that before I came.
