Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Knight Who Hires Ten Orcs
Shura, the only orc zone in Yaris.
The weather is perfect today, which is suitable for repairing buildings and making this special zone more like a city.
A lot of infrastructure has not yet been built, only the foundation has been laid, but soon, houses will be added here.
These workers are not the Luling people of the past, but replaced by orcs.
Those orcs who had some curiosity about humans and wanted to leave Lubis and have a try first became Shura's first residents.
Of course, there are still many unorganized orcs in Yaris. They hide in various corners or in orc apartments and live their lives quietly. They have no way to cross thousands of mountains and rivers.
Risking being discovered by moving to another location...
Humans can still be seen in the orc special zone. They are often the chief designers of houses. They usually hold an architectural design drawing and issue instructions to the orcs who are doing hard work.
Some merchants who came here sniffed out the business opportunities, prepared some goods in a hurry, and quickly brought them here to sell. However... most of the orcs' properties are generally made up of various strange items.
It consists of gold coins and the like, which are not circulated in Rubis.
The truly powerful thing in Rubis is the fist, which can bring you everything. As long as you are strong enough, the entire continent is property in your name.
In terms of combat effectiveness of a single person, the orcs generally have a much higher level than the Luling people because the orcs themselves contain a lot of magic power.
This is why the existence of smaller orcs is rare, because their bodies cannot withstand such huge magic power. And this magic power will enhance their estrus and violence, so some herbivorous orcs were also slaughtered.
All of them were completely wiped out. In the long process of survival of the fittest, only some powerful carnivorous species were left in the entire Rubis, as well as the more terrifying herbivorous species - because their ancestors had trampled on the corpses of carnivorous species...
Once the orcs get out of Rubis, they can get rid of the fate of slaughtering and being slaughtered, or the intricate food chain, and start a new life. This is the origin of the orcs' longing for Rune Continent, even if the humans here are against them
The attitude is very bad.
But...they will still be slaughtered here, at least economically.
The merchants who came to make their first pot of gold were so happy that they couldn't help but smile, because the orcs didn't know the concept of grading magic weapons, they only knew whether the things in their hands were useful.
In the eyes of some orcs, decorations can often become the best drawing materials for magic pattern structures in people's eyes.
As a result, good goods came in one after another, and gold coins were paid one after another. If these merchants didn't have some conscience, they would even exchange two or three copper coins for things worth forty or fifty gold coins.
These honest orcs didn't know this, they just handed over what they had in their hands to them stupidly.
However... what the orcs don't understand is that the most valuable thing in their eyes - food, is actually almost worthless in their eyes!
These decorative items are sold and can be found in the mysterious quagmire of Rubis.
Here, an extremely rare equality has been achieved between humans and orcs. Perhaps it is because the proportion of orcs is so large that if you say something unpleasant here, you will be smashed into pieces by others.
You know, the muscles of the first batch of residents basically look like they can grow as high as a hill...
Since commerce has sprouted in this peculiar city, there will definitely be many others, except for the Dyeing Tower. Orcs do not need to be soaked with magic power.
Various gatherings and sects came one after another, preparing to seize some of the believers here. Schools were gradually set up to provide some of the most basic education for these orcs - at least they could read two words.
The mercenary hiring market is also developing vigorously in this place. Basically, there is no labor force that can match the orcs. Apart from the difference in race, their huge strength can also be used as thugs.
Of course, in order to deal with the strange habits of some people, some handsome-looking orcs were also invited to enter various places where singing and dancing took place. Among the curls of smoke, some intoxicating roars could be faintly heard.
That's what I said...
Orcs will never be slaves unless they have food and shelter... As long as you give them money, they can basically do anything.
As long as it conforms to their concepts of good and evil, there is no limit to what the orcs can do, because they are stupid.
Various orcs have walked out of the temporary animal skin sheds. They stretched their bodies, opened their mouths wide, and yawned openly. They took out some of the food left last night to fill their stomachs, and then groped around.
How much money do you have, should you find a job to make money...
Most of the orcs are building their own residences, while others are looking for opportunities in the mercenary market. There is also a place to rest there, and there is no limit to drinking water.
Today, it seems that a wealthy man came to the market and planned to sign ten orcs at once for a period of one month. This matter spread like a wave, and soon it was widely known throughout Shura.
You know, signing ten orcs at one time is the upper limit set by Yaris.
It is said that they are escorting the goods of a large chamber of commerce from Vangang, the capital of Yaris, all the way back to the orc special area, Shura.
The most attractive part is not the reward of two gold coins, but the ability to use the exclusive teleportation spell in the orc gathering. For them, curiosity is often the biggest driving force.
At this time, a long queue was forming in the mercenary gathering, and a man holding a rapier was the source of the long queue.
He is William.
"Don't crowd! We will conduct a preliminary physical test on everyone to select suitable mercenary candidates, and finally conduct a simple assessment to determine the candidates!"
"Get out of the way! I was here first!"
"Go away! How dare you compete with me for such a small body!"
"Teleportation spell...I don't know if the capital of Yaris is much prettier than here..."
All kinds of roars inevitably echoed in this hastily built house, making William dizzy.
well......
He gently held his forehead, thinking that he would definitely have to ask his subordinates to do this kind of thing next time. It was really torturous.
At the end of the day, from beginning to end, it seemed that these orcs were focusing on the animalistic part rather than the humanistic part. They were yelling at each other and making wanton comparisons. From the bulging biceps to comparing how thick and thick their calves were.
Majestic.
Fortunately, under William's gaze, they did not fight, perhaps because it would drastically reduce his impression.
William ordered people to bring all the more than 20 selected orcs to the second floor to prepare for the final test.
These orcs are all very powerful in combat, each has its own focus, and their appearance is pretty good - but basically all orcs look the same to them.
William sat on the desk in the center of the hall on the second floor, frowning slightly, enduring the faint smell of sweat with some displeasure.
His eyes slowly passed over the faces of these orcs, and finally he closed his hands and said softly: "You are all selected from hundreds of people. I believe that your fighting ability is impeccable.
."
The orcs opposite did not dare to boast, because it was not the time to be proud yet.
Among the twenty orcs, nearly half are wolf orcs, two or three are tiger orcs, and a few are relatively large bear orcs.
"Among you, I will select ten as my followers to escort important items. Of course, I will not abandon the rest. I naturally have other tasks here waiting for you to accept."
"As for what is important, you don't need to know, let alone have the right to know. However, I can tell you that for this, yes, the establishment of Shura, the Orc Special Zone, plays a vital role."
William smiled and pointed at his feet. He looked at the orcs opposite who looked a little confused and didn't seem too surprised.
"The next assessment is very simple."
He snapped his fingers and saw the tables and chairs in the hall floating past and being placed in front of each orc with a bang.
The orcs immediately tensed their hearts, waiting for the other party's request.
William clapped his hands, a dim light flickered, and a quill pen and a piece of paper appeared out of thin air on the table in front of everyone.
"Write your names." he ordered.
William doesn't need orcs who don't know a word as his followers, and William doesn't need a group of rough guys accompanying the princess.
Well, people who can write their own names...are obviously less arrogant and more arrogant.
The result is very obvious.
There are ten in total, just right, no more, no less. Seven wolf orcs, two tiger orcs, and one bear orc.
The remaining orcs hung their heads and left with regret, waiting for the next task. Those tasks were assigned by William's subordinates.
The people who stayed behind in the end had happy faces, and the tails of the wolf-orcs were swaying in unison, presumably in a good mood.
"As you know, the contract is signed for one month, which means that within one month, we will complete the mission. Answer me, do you have this ability?"
"have!"
William's face turned green... There's no need for these guys to make their voices so loud...
He waved his hand, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then said: "In addition, you also need to serve as waiters, bodyguards, thugs, instructors, and other various positions."
"I will not take any other followers with me on this trip, only ten of you."
"As for why?"
"Because the person who is going with you is the current princess of Yaris, Marshall. You will be in charge of everything for her in the next month."
"I will give you two days to prepare. I hope you can take a good bath during this time and get yourself clean. I believe that this young princess does not like dirty things."
"Well, let's see you the day after tomorrow."
William stood up with a smile, walked forward, raised his hand and patted the shoulders of each orc, looking at their extremely strong, hairy chest and abdomen, but the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch slightly.
Chapter completed!
