Tauren Lord

“Artimo, why did he send the letter?”

Barr took the letter casually. Although this Viscount Artimo was of the same clan as him and looked harmless to humans and animals, he was actually cunning and cunning, and Baal was not very worried about him.

“By the way, Old Tang, the two boats we went out to sea are still docked on the desert island in the southeast. The sailors on the boat still don’t know that we are back. You should send someone to inform them.” Barr raised his head.

“Don’t worry, my lord, I already sent people out last night,” Donald said.

After listening to Barr, he was relieved. If these sailors who were still on the deserted island could not wait for news from Barr and the others, they might be in a hurry.

“Lilith, how is the preparation for what I ordered yesterday?” Baal asked casually after drinking a sip of tea.

“My lord, it’s all ready.” Lilith said sternly, “I’ve taken four teams from the guard, each with twenty-five people, and they can leave at any time.”

“Yes.” Barr nodded slightly, “I will explain to them, I don’t care what kind of means they use, but one thing is, don’t hurt anyone.”

Hailan Village now has a population of more than 2,000, but there is still some gap to upgrade to a town, so Barr immediately began to pay attention to the refugee camp.

Around Heifengkou there are large and small refugee camps, ranging from a few hundred to thousands.

For Baal, this is the best way to gain a large population in a short period of time. Now all the guards in the village have been upgraded to level 30, and the equipment has also been replaced with the barbarian suit, and the strength has been greatly improved. If they are only active in the outer areas of the Black Rock Mountains, the safety is still guaranteed, and it is time to send them out.

“Nothing else, let’s all go.”

After everyone left, Baal took out the letter sent by Viscount Artimo and opened it.

“Imperial summons?” Baal looked at it carefully.

The first half of this letter was filled with irrelevant words, nothing more than to be concerned about the status of Baal’s territory, congratulations to Baal’s territory for upgrading, and ask him for help if you have any difficulties. However, the latter part is more important.

The letter mentioned that after the territory is upgraded to the third level, the lord can recruit the third-level troops, which is considered to have a certain strength, and then will enter the vision of the high-level empire, and will be officially incorporated into the imperial bureaucracy by the empire.

At this time, the lord needs to regularly complete the tasks assigned by the empire.

Depending on the level of the territory, the difficulty of the task is also different, such as spying on the empire’s intelligence, hunting down the empire’s most wanted criminals, etc. After the task is completed, you will get a certain amount of points, which can be exchanged for various items in the imperial treasury. Items, if you have enough points, even legendary items can be exchanged.

“Legendary-level items, as expected of a thousand-year-old empire, have a profound background.” Barr couldn’t help but stammered. No one had ever heard of an item of this level in the past two years.

Of course, in addition to the tasks that must be completed, the lords can also choose to accept various tasks issued by the empire, and they will also be rewarded with points. If the mission is successful, you will get a certain degree of credibility. If you fail, there is no penalty, but it will reduce your credibility. If the credibility is too low, you will lose the qualification to accept the mission.

With the current strength of Hailan Village, these are nothing.

But then a message is very important.

The lords of the third-level territories need to accept the imperial conscription and serve as low-level officers in the army. Although they are only nominal, they must recruit a specified number of soldiers to join the imperial army during wartime.

Barr frowned, then looked down.

“Is that so?”

According to the letter, there are two ways to join the army.

One is to obey the arrangement of the empire and join the army designated by the empire. After joining, the empire will give very generous rewards.

If it is an ordinary race, there is no choice, but for a high-ranking race like the tauren, there is actually another way, that is to refuse the invitation of the empire and directly join the tauren army.

In this case, you do not need to accept the imperial conscription during the war, but directly obey the dispatch of the Tauren Legion. In the northeastern border of the empire, the tauren are powerful, and many lords of the tauren clan disobeyed the order and joined the tauren army directly.

“Sure enough, it’s the one with the big fist that has the final say.” Barr smiled.

After reading this letter, Baal decided to join the Tauren Army without thinking.

Having spent more than two years in the Rand world in his previous life, Baal also had a deep understanding of the internal situation of the empire. Ligers and tigers can be said to love and hate the tauren family. On the one hand, the tauren family is powerful, and both want to use it for their own use. On the other hand, they are afraid that the tauren will grow bigger and threaten their dominance. .

If you obey the arrangements of the empire, if you are assigned to the troops of these two tribes, life will not be easy.

Those who rewarded Baal can’t look down on them, and it’s no big deal to have a bad relationship with the two clans. The Tauren family is already close to the ligers and tigers, and the relationship is so bad. As a Tauren, no matter how good the relationship with them is. , nor can it be reused.

Judging from the meaning of Artimo’s letter, the messenger of the empire will arrive at this time, and Baal has to prepare early.

Blacksmith shop.

Joseph was carefully tapping a hemispherical metal plate on the workbench.

“Here, and here, pay attention that the thickness must be uniform. The points I marked need to be punched, and the size must meet the requirements on the drawing.” An old werewolf next to him was holding a charcoal pen in his right hand, from time to time on the metal plate marked in some places.

“Big head, busy.” Barr walked into the door.

“Bal, you’re here, come and see how my craft is going.” Joseph put down the hammer in his hand excitedly, “This drawing has too high requirements for size and texture, but I’m a big waste. It takes effort to do it well.”

“Sir.” The old werewolf next to him saluted respectfully.

“No need to be more polite, it’s hard for you.” Barr smiled and walked over.

What the two built was the M-200 magic turret that Baal and others obtained from the ruins. Although there is no alchemy laboratory in the village, fortunately there is a senior alchemist apprentice in the werewolf. This old-fashioned magic fort has a relatively simple structure, so Baal let the two give it a try.

“How is it, is there any hope?” Barr looked at the metal casing on the workbench. Joseph’s talent was good, and he had been promoted to senior blacksmith during this time.

“It’s very difficult, but it’s not hopeless, but it takes a lot of time to make such a magic machine by hand.” The old werewolf thought for a while.

“It doesn’t matter, as long as it can be done, it will be a great success.” Baal also understands that this kind of magic machinery is really time-consuming and laborious to build by hand, but if it is successfully built, the defense power of the territory will be greatly strengthened.

“Well, here’s the shortbread I brought for the two of you.” Barr took out a paper bag and handed it over, “You two haven’t had breakfast yet, so just try it.”

“Thank you sir.”

“Bal, isn’t this expensive? We’ll just eat potato in the future, so we can save more money.” Joseph picked up a shortbread and threw it into his mouth, and said vaguely~www.mtlnovel.com~ in Lan In the German world, productivity is not high. All sugar-related products are luxury goods, and shortbread is one of them.

“Big head, I’m also the head of a village now, do you still need to save me?” Barr scolded with a smile.

…..

In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed.

During this time, the development of the village was very stable.

After destroying the human slave-hunting team last time, Baal obtained a training book for Tier 3 Elite Arms, which has been used, and obtained the qualification for recruiting Tier 3 Elite Arms: Mystic Mage. Mystic Mage can use water or fire spells. One of them has a group attack skill, and the attack power is very strong.

In the past few days, Baal has recruited a total of 20 people, including 8 water-type mages and 12 fire-type mages, which is also a considerable force.

After the market was upgraded to Level 3, the scope continued to expand. It has exceeded 400 kilometers, covering nearly 20 villages and towns. The procurement of materials has also become relatively easy. Barr also finally bought the construction drawings of the salt field and successfully got rid of it. Troubled by sky-high salt prices.

Most of the buildings in the village have been upgraded to the third level, and only a few buildings such as fences and fishing grounds are left. Because there are too many wood and stone materials required, the upgrade has not yet been completed, especially to upgrade the walls to low city walls. The stone material is very amazing, and the growing village population also needs more houses to live in. There is still a big gap in wood and stone.

Hailan Village is still in the period of accumulation of strength, and is not in a hurry to upgrade the town. Now that upgrading to a town will not bring any substantial benefits to Baal except for the limelight.

Chamber.

“Sir, the team sent out has returned, and it looks like they have brought back a lot of people.” Lilith ran in with a happy face.

“Go, go out and have a look.” Barr got up and said.
