Lord of Rot

Chapter 523 Bullshit Porcupine (5k) (page 12)

July is the hottest time of the year.

The sky above our heads is cloudless, and the sun is like a red iron stove in front of us, making our skin hurt.

Ulti sat on the carriage, letting the horse follow the horse in front of him at a leisurely pace. When the wheel ran over a stone, the whole carriage shook violently, and a "clang" caught him from his idle thoughts.

As the only groom in the team, especially after solving several problems such as horse diarrhea, Ulti's status has also improved. Several cavalrymen are very eager to him, and even pull him along when eating.

The food of the cavalry is different from that of the logistics. They wear armor, often have to keep vigil, and do strenuous work, so the meals are meaty, salty, and oily, making them very enjoyable to eat.

After eating all the way, Ulti not only did not lose weight due to the fatigue of traveling, but instead gained a belly and gained a lot of fat on his cheeks.

There is also a daily subsidy, and this life is... comfortable!

There are about a hundred people in the team, and it is said that they are already the third group. The first two groups have completed their work and are rushing back, and they did not encounter them on the way.

They are not from the same territory, but they are always exclusive. They don’t want to be inferior to teams from other territories. It is true that they belong to the same lord, but there is competition everywhere, especially the education class they must attend once a month. It shows for the first time that collective interests are greater than individual interests. It is not a matter of whether you listen or believe it. At least that is what the slogan says.

Of course there is also a slogan, the lord is above all else.

Someone lightly tapped me on the shoulder, and then a voice came from my ear: "Hey, look, I met that one yesterday!"

Ulti turned around and looked over. It turned out to be a man with a cloak covering his head and face and carrying a sword. His white hair that could not be covered was exposed from the gap. He had seen it in the market. He was taciturn, but after listening to a few The trooper said he was dangerous and best left alone.

It is said that people who have reached that level can stop a startling horse with their bare hands!

Only Ulti, who often spends time with horses, knows how scary a crazy horse can be.

If a hoof goes down, ordinary people will definitely be trampled to the point of being trampled to the core.

As for raising the spear and wanting the horse to hit him?

Not to mention that horses in porcupine collars are now wearing harnesses, and that horses are not stupid and only run in a straight line. Let’s talk about the speed at which the horse runs and the horse really hits it straight. It is not sure whether the horse will die. People He would definitely not be able to withstand the horrific impact. After being knocked away, many bones would be broken, and his internal organs would definitely be smashed into pulp.

It's enough to show how scary this group of people is.

To be frightening, of course, it was the mysterious fourth apostle from High Blood City who flew into the sky and escaped from the earth. It was a pity that Ulti was imprisoned at the time and had no right to see what was happening outside.

The silver-haired man also turned his head and glanced here, as if he recognized them.

Then he flicked the horse's reins and surpassed the convoy, leaving only a smaller and smaller black dot figure until the black dot disappeared at the junction of the grass and the sky.

"It's so cool." Another envious voice came from the companion next to him: "I'm not short of money. I can ride a horse and go wherever I want."

"Is there any?" Ulti curled his lips: "I think our life is pretty good, and haven't you already divided the room?"

He knew who the guy sitting next to him was, who was in charge of the logistics of this team. It was said that he was the first batch of apprentices who followed the big shot Lord Grant. Even though he was only two or three years old, he was very qualified and capable, and he was serious. He comes from the office, earns a lot of money, and has a lot of power. It is said that he can gain face by entering the castle. Of course, he is bragging about it himself, and not many people believe it.

The only people who can enter the castle with their faces are those few adults. Those are the big shots who can decide the life or death of hundreds of thousands of people with just one sentence.

It was precisely after knowing the identity of the other party that Ulti understood how important his mission to Endor was. In other words, reaching the sky in one step is not an exaggeration. It is not that the lord does not pay attention to this matter, but it can make the lord There are not many things on his mind. To be able to accomplish one thing that the lord is thinking about is really a good opportunity that hundreds of thousands of people don't get a chance to get. They are eager to get in.

Let’s see what the lord can take to heart? Transforming Monkey Island, refining gold, farming and training soldiers are all major events that take several thousand gold days, so this time is also a big event, a big deal.

The rest is like business, shipbuilding, building houses, etc., and the lord doesn't bother to ask about it at all.

Ulti remembered the help from the man behind the small window of the racecourse, which was a great kindness.

Although there are many hills and winding roads in the East Gorge, the overall environment is pretty good. Entering the central region... In fact, the name of the central region is not recognized. People only recognize east, west, north and south, so they call the golden wheat field mother river pedal land the royal capital territory. The surrounding territories are all related to the king and do not enter the four borders of southeast, northwest and northwest.

It is undeniable that the central area has fertile soil and a suitable climate, making it a good place for growing food.

But after arriving at Endor, the group couldn't help but sigh.

What a waste, what a waste of natural resources!

The fat and tender green grass can grow up to a person's waist. If you pinch it with your fingernails, the green juice will immediately penetrate into the lines between your fingers and palms.

"If this place is used to grow food..."

Under the wise leadership of Lord Li Qi, the people under his command have already awakened the soul of farming. When they see fertile land, they want to grow food. When they see barren land, they want to improve the soil first, and then plant the land.

As Mr. Li Qi often said, food is the most important thing for the people.

Listening to the sighs beside him, Ulti shook his head: "It can't be planted. We haven't really entered Endor yet. It's cold up there."

"above?"

My peers don’t understand. Most of them have never been out of the East Gorge in their lives, and they don’t know much about geography. Aren’t we walking on flat ground all the time? There are only a few small uphills here and there. How can we go up there? I didn’t see any mountains either.

But after a few days, they understood what "above" meant.

First of all, it’s cold. It’s obviously July, and people who get cold at night can’t sleep well.

Then came tiredness, both men and horses were tired, and they began to pant heavily while walking. The trained soldiers were fine, but their breathing was a little heavier. The logisticians who had not had much exercise training were miserable, lying on the carriage looking half-dead. From the looks of it, if it weren’t for the occasional sharp breath, it would be easy for people to mistakenly think that he was completely cold.

Out of breath.

Feeling dizzy and dizzy.

A few others had red cheeks.

Regardless of whether the land here is fertile or not, people cannot bear it here.

In this situation, it is difficult for ordinary people to breathe, but the soldiers of Endor can fight and kill. How strong their physical fitness must be!

Two days after the chef collapsed, they finally arrived at the golden meadow.

On the endless plain known as the Golden Grassland, looking up, one could see a towering flat-topped mountain peak reaching into the clouds. Probably because they were already very "up" at this time, the clouds were very low and they could reach out and grab it. As if to arrive.

After truly entering the golden grassland, we began to encounter some wandering herdsmen on the road. They hung far behind the team like hyenas. It was not until the team arrived at a small village that the herdsmen left.

Ulti only heard about it once and knew that this place was called Hunter's Territory. There were soldiers holding spears and wearing leather armor standing guard at the entrance of the village.

After seeing the porcupine flag, the soldiers opened the door without saying anything.

A team had already arrived earlier, so the journey was smooth and there were no problems.
