Chapter 494 (1/2)
September is the month when the season turns cool.
The hot summer passed and the cool autumn came.
But for the desert of death, even in early autumn, the heat is still daunting.
Moreover, due to the end of the summer rainy season, the autumn of the dead desert is even drier. Coupled with the weather that is often out of season from time to time, the dryness and high temperature are enough to make people crazy
Only orcs with thick skin and flesh can adapt to this climate.
North of the death desert.
A line of human caravans full of goods is moving slowly.
There were about 60 or 70 people in the caravan, and there were about 20 carriages. On one side of each carriage there was a black hawk sign, which attracted much attention.
It's the sole logo of the Soren chamber of Commerce.
The strongest side of the caravan was a human warrior on a camel, about thirty years old.
He wore leather armour and a black hawk badge on his chest, which was a trade token owned by the leader of Soren chamber of Commerce, and also a proof of his identity and status.
In Soren chamber of Commerce, only powerful silver professionals can have such a badge.
He looked at the sun in the sky for a while, then took out his water bag to drink. While wiping sweat, he swore:
”this is the hell of the weather!”
Even silver professionals can't stand such high temperature before they can realize the complete transformation of their physique without advanced golden level.
The caravan gradually advanced, bypassed one barren hill after another, and finally came to an oasis.
Oasis scale is not large, surrounded by a shallow lake, the Bank of the lush reed and desert poplar.
Around the oasis, there are hundreds of tents and thatched houses.
And the orcs, who were strong and dressed in crude leather armour or hemp, were busy.
This is an orc settlement.
Death desert has a bad climate, especially lack of water. Only similar oases can become the land of life.
After seeing the orc settlement, the leader of the chamber of commerce finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The orcs also noticed the arrival of the caravan, and there was a clear commotion throughout the settlement.
Especially after noticing the Black Hawk logo of the chamber of Commerce.
The warlord turned his lips as the orcs cast a mixture of greed, curiosity, desire, and vigilance, sweeping their ragged equipment and clothing.
”Inferior race is inferior race...”
He said to himself.
Even if human beings are not even black iron race, they still don't look up to these stupid big men with only muscles in their brains.
This is determined by the comprehensive strength of the race, as well as the strength of the God.
But soon, the caravan leader changed into a warm smile.
He turned down from his camel and yelled at the settlement:
”Shalu! I'm Andres! The goods you want have arrived
The silver professional's voice was loud and soon spread throughout the settlement.
A moment later, accompanied by a burst of laughter, a tall, scarred Orc priest came out of the settlement surrounded by several Orc fighters.
He came to the caravan and looked at the full truck with a satisfied expression.
”It's been a long time, Mr. Andres!”
He laughed to the caravan leader, Andres.
Andres gave him a surprised look and said:
”eh? Have you been promoted to silver? ”
This is a silver priest!
You know, silver professionals are not common among orcs. Even if the magic power begins to revive, due to the limitation of racial potential, there are few silver strongmen among orcs.
Not to mention a rare priest.
In such a small settlement with hundreds of tents, the number of soldiers who can survive is only 1000. Apart from the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, there are at most five or six hundred soldiers. Generally speaking, no priest of silver rank is born.
So Andreas was surprised.
He did not smuggle much in the desert of death, but he thought he knew a lot about orcs because he had studied at Imperial College and studied Orc culture.
And hearing Andres's surprise, the orc priest named saru looked very proud.
He chuckled, and then his expression became solemn and devout.
”Praise the winter, praise the hunting! They are all the blessings of the father
He drew a bow on his chest.
Andreas suddenly realized that the other side had been blessed by the real God, and then he was promoted.
After that, he motioned to the subordinates of the caravan to open the truck, and then said to the orc priest:
”here, the 500 pieces of imperial equipment you want, as well as the grain, are all the latest. Check it out.”At his words, the orc priest's eyes lit up:
”great! Now the soldiers of our tribe can give full play
He waved to the orcs behind him, and the orcs came forward one after another to examine the cargo.
A moment later, the orc warrior who looked up nodded to Shalu, and Shalu's smile became more enthusiastic:
”I knew that Soren chamber of Commerce will always be a friend of orcs!”
”Mr. Andres, and all the friends of the Terrans, come to our tribe and have a rest. It's been a long time. We've got drinks ready.”
He invited the caravan.
Andreas nodded, directing the caravan to rest in the orc horde.
He didn't worry about cheating, even the silver professionals who had appeared in this small tribe.
Maybe he would be wary of orcs on weekdays, but this time the other side would not dare to mess around.
Because this transaction was negotiated between the orc King court of the dead desert and the senior level of Soren chamber of Commerce. It is said that there seems to be a stronger endorsement of existence
Andreas himself led only one of the many Soren caravans that traded with orcs.
Drinking the sweet sand spring, Andrews sat in the cool shade, eating his carry on dry food, squinting at the orcs excitedly dividing their wagons.
To his surprise, it wasn't just Shalu who had improved, but the orc warriors had also become more powerful.
According to his understanding, the average strength of orcs in the death desert should be in the middle of black iron, and only a few warriors can reach the top.
However, nearly half of these orcs have been promoted to the top of black iron!
This made Andreas a little surprised. He speculated that 80% of them were written by the hunting church.
And a moment later, a few orcs with wheelbarrows were led down to him by the priest.
There are three wheelbarrows, each full of fur.
It is the skin of a rare Warcraft ”sand spotted leopard”, which is unique to the death desert. It is very beautiful. It is a valuable luxury in the human world, and the smuggling profit is very high.
These three furs, sold to the human world, are enough to top 700 sets of excellent armor and enough food for a small Orc tribe for three months.
”Good!”
Andres looked satisfied at the fur.
However, his eyes did not stop, but looked back expectantly.
What else? That You know, private goods. ”
He laughed and asked meaningfully.
Hearing Andres's words, the orc priest first smiles and then nods in the same meaningful way:
”of course, there are also smugglers.”
Then, he winked at the orc behind him, while the other half nodded, and another Orc pushed a carriage tightly covered with gray cloth.
As soon as Andres saw this, he quickly stepped forward and carefully uncovered a corner of the gray cloth.
Under the gray cloth is a cage.
In the cage, three beautiful young female spirits are tightly bound, shivering.
