Chapter 10 The Second Mission
Seeing the girl opposite with her hands tied back and a piece of rag in her mouth, and looking at herself in horror, Egil knew instantly that the Viking warriors had obviously misunderstood something - of course, this girl obviously misunderstood something. Similarly, she also misunderstood something.
Of course, it's okay to not misunderstand yourself - but at least the girl's appearance index will rise by about 120 percentage points.
It’s true that Egil had just drunk a lot of alcohol. But he really didn’t have the attribute of disorder after drinking, so although his body was shaking, his brain was extremely clear.
"By the way, I can't drink so much in the future... Although the surrounding small tribes have been cleaned up, there is no need to think about safety issues. But in the future... I have to develop a habit at least... and this group of Vikings, your sister can really drink... Maybe it's because of the low degree of this ale."
However, it was precisely because the brain was extremely clear and the alcohol stimulation that Egil thought a little too much. And the body and the brain were slightly disconnected. Thinking about these things in his mind, the body involuntarily walked forward a few steps and walked directly to the girl.
Seeing the great enemy who destroyed the family and destroyed the clan step by step, the girl who was already imagining her future fate screamed in horror - of course, because her mouth was blocked, she only made some "whimper" sounds.
To be honest, Egil is not ugly. His eyebrows are raised, his eagle eyes are slightly open, his nose is firm, and his lips are thin and narrow. The previous Viking braids have been taken apart, and his shoulder-length hair is slightly messy and his ears are trapped. He is a charming villain's face, but he is systematically evaluated as a sinister + 2 cruel, but it is a bit scary for some timid guys.
Just like this girl with her hands tied back by a rope.
"Tsk." Egil snorted lightly, and then remembered that during the day, the woman mentioned by several Viking warriors had something to look for her. He directly pulled out the girl's innermost rag, took two steps back with an ambiguous smile, and sat opposite her.
"Didn't you ask me for something? You can tell me now."
The girl lives like a princess in her tribe. Her father is just her daughter, so she is quite nice to her. In addition, she has a pretty good face, so she is quite attractive to some silly boys who have never seen the world. After being praised by these young men for several years, the girl also thinks she is a character. Even if she is not as good as Cleopatra, she is at least the level of the Roman princess Jing Nolia.
So, sacrifice a little, for the tribe.
After coughing hard for a few times, the girl raised her head bravely and looked at Egil "without fear". Then she took a secret breath and decided to respect this guy a little.
"May I ask, powerful leader, how did you do my tribe after you have governed my tribe?" the girl asked.
"Serfs, slaves, labor force, population... what do you think I should treat them?" I rolled my eyes, wondering why this guy was unable to protect himself, so why did he say such words.
"..." The girl gritted her teeth: "If you can treat my tribe equally, I am willing to obey you."
"What does it mean?" For a moment, Egil was a little unresponsive.
"That is to say, as long as you give her tribe members equal treatment, she will agree to be with you, stupid." At this time, a slightly harsh voice of the system elf appeared.
"What a joke?! Do you think I'm a fool?!" Egil couldn't help but shout.
“…”
So, the girl suffered a setback for the first time in her life, and it was an unprecedented, extremely terrifying setback, a crushing defeat, and a complete defeat.
"Okay, you can get out now." After learning that the girl could not bring him any benefits at all, Egil no longer had any interest in her. He waved his hand, and then he saw that the girl had not moved yet, and then he remembered that the girl was tied up - of course, Egil would never loosen her now. Who knows if this woman brought a dagger or something in her leggings, and it would be a tragic if the boat capsized in the gutter.
What's more, if you go out at this time, you might be rumored by those damn Viking warriors saying that you have premature ejaculation or something.
Damn it, it's just a system, what's so realistic about doing? If you get some fertility difficulties attributes, that's a tragedy.
So, Egil lay on the ground, mumbling, thinking in his mind that he still has more than 3,000 coupons, what should he exchange for?
Well, the army? By the way, the first task still needs to expand the army to two thousand people. How many people are there in total now?
Five teams of patrol cavalry, one team of tomahawk cavalry, a total of three hundred cavalry.
Four teams of Viking infantry, two teams of Viking soldiers, and one team of urban militia, a total of 1,100 melee infantry.
Two teams of crossbow-carrying militias and two teams of Nordic archers, a total of four hundred long-range infantry.
A team of generals led the guards, with a total of twenty people.
Total of 1,820 soldiers, and there are still 180 less than the total amount of 2,000. The matter between the two teams of soldiers - of course, the great urban management troops such as the town patrol soldiers basically have no attack power, so they can catch thieves and robbers. It is an act that only idiots can do when they go to the battlefield.
And now, there are not many options available in the town and military camps, including archery militia, crossbow militia, spear militia, patrol cavalry... I have only five slags who have the combat power of wiping my tears. Could it be that I want to use these things to conquer the world?
"Actually nothing. How many regular troops would you think in the Middle Ages? Most of them were temporary signs, and some were harsh and even had the soldiers equipped with weapons and food. Even if you really conquer the world with militia, it would not be unacceptable."
"...What should I do if I encounter a strong nomadic people?" Egil asked.
"Spread your hands."
"Spread your hands, your sister?! Do you dare to come to some powerful and precious regular army? Is there a hundred thousand iron cavalry? Is there a million army? Is there a ten million reserve force?"
"You think this is playing a game? You can complete all tasks by clicking the mouse?!"
"Isn't this a game? Is this a game really a game?!"
“…Look at it yourself. Building list, military camp upgrades, etc.”
"oh."
So, although the system elves are a scam, it's really not OK without her. After Egil opened the system interface, he saw such subtitles in the Military and Political Recruitment Building column.
The city barracks upgrade column.
There are five levels of military camps in total. There are also supporting facilities in the military camps, which are divided into four components: horse, horse down, melee, and long-range. Combined into four categories: melee, horse down, melee, and long-range.
Melee weapons are further divided into two types: long pole and short weapon. At the same time, they are divided into three attributes: armor-breaking, blunt weapon and sharp. Just like the axe that the Vikings like to use, they have the dual attributes of sharp and armor-breaking, so they are extremely powerful and violent.
Of course, forging technology is also very important, just like steel is definitely stronger than iron. In the 21st century, I took a stainless steel kitchen knife to the Middle Ages, which was an authentic magic weapon.
The current forging technology is level 2, which can make traditional ancient armor such as chain armor, scale armor, and thorn armor.
Of course, chain armor is better, especially double-layer chain armor, which has a huge defense and a light weight. It is the best choice besides plate armor.
"So, I can actually upgrade the armor shop now and then popularize chain armor on a large scale?" Egil asked the system elves.
"But before that, you have to find a stable source of iron ore supply and build the armor workshop."
"Indeed... it will be the end of the month in three days."
"That's right."
"In two days, the agricultural facilities I originally wanted to build will be put into production, right?"
"That's right."
“So, can those agricultural facilities catch up with the tax revenue at the end of the month?”
"...Although this is also a system bug, but that's right."
"Oh yeah."
When he opened the financial interface again, Egil was relieved to find that with the new population, the number of head taxes and the income brought by agricultural construction, he could have another 4,000 gold coins left in addition to paying military salaries to the soldiers. In another half a month, the city would be upgraded. At that time, many more buildings would be built and upgraded to the city barracks, recruiting three types of troops: super-spike militia, Viking infantry, and Nordic archers.
But it will take a month later...
A little too late.
Just as Egil wanted to talk to the system elves again and plan the future development prospects of the territory, the girl who was next to her and had been ignored for a long time suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "If you can agree to my conditions, I will tell you a secret."
"What's the secret?" Egil asked without blinking his eyes or turning his head.
"There is a secret about the dwarves in this mountain range - there is trade between my father and a dwarf tribe. If you promise me, then I will tell you this trade route."
Just after the girl finished saying this, the system prompt sound suddenly rang: "You have received a new task, please check it."
Egil's heart moved, but he still didn't say anything. He controlled his mind and clicked to open the system interface - the system interface is really convenient, and you can see it regardless of whether you open your eyes and close your eyes.
Mission: In contact with the dwarf, you heard a news that a nation that originally only existed in the legend was suddenly found out by you - this matter may be a good opportunity, please seize it.
Mission objective: Contact any dwarf tribe.
