Heimarian Odyssey - Chapter 499

[Chapter 500: Deep Blue Hellfire World (5)]

Yao is good at observing words and expressions, and after seeing Locke’s impatience, Yao went straight to the point and said, “Our tribe has some gifts for Sir Knight.”

The wings on Yao’s back vibrated slightly, and the sound waves of a certain frequency spread outside, and a team of thunder locusts that had been prepared earlier came in carrying two large boxes.

Locke didn’t move, and continued to watch them perform.

After the box was put down, there was a dull and heavy sound, and there were still a lot of things inside.

Under the signal of Yao’s eyes, one of the thunder locusts slashed with his own arm knife, and the box opened, revealing a pile of purple bamboo poles inside.

“Zihuang Bamboo?” Locke’s eyelids moved slightly. With several magician wives around him every day, his knowledge became better and better. This kind of magic plant containing water and thunder elements inside is very popular among some magicians.

However, the value of the Purple Brilliant Bamboo is also relatively low, slightly more precious than the Thunder Bamboo that was made into fences by the Thunder Locust Clan, but it is also limited.

Another big box was also quickly opened, and it was also a whole box of Zihuang bamboo.

“My lord, we want to exchange the payment of the Zihuang Bamboo for the payment of the Blood Locust Stone.” Yao said to Locke.

In layman’s terms, it is to increase the amount of tribute from Zihuang Bamboo, hoping that Locke can reduce the amount of tribute from their blood locust stones.

Locke patted the bamboo chair with his fingers, but didn’t give an answer quickly.

He has the right to collect materials from all races in the Magnetic Levitation Mountains. He decides how to collect and who to ask. Locke only needs to prepare the total number of materials required by the Knights Palace when the airships from the Iron Bastion arrive every quarter. Done.

Locke can help Yao with this, it doesn’t cost him much, the point is how Yao can thank him.

These two boxes of Purple Brilliant Bamboo are Yao’s gift. It seems that the production of Zihuang Bamboo in this tribe’s territory is very high. It can take out such a bribe, and it can also replace the supply of blood locust stones.

“You can reduce the payment by half for the blood locust stone every quarter, but you have to double the payment for Zihuangzhu.” Locke said in an unquestionable tone.

“Okay.” Yao also spoke quickly.

Before Locke came here to take office, Yao’s tribe had colluded with the previous garrison knight, everyone took what they needed, it was no big deal.

The blood locust stone can increase the survival rate of the thunder locust larvae, and is the most important material for the thunder locust tribe.

The reason why Yao and other tribes also suffered heavy losses in the volcanic eruption a month ago, but they were still able to make up the payment amount of Lei Chishi was because their tribe had a large population base.

Enough blood locust stone powder to feed the thunder locust larvae can not only increase the survival rate of the larvae to 70%, but also strengthen the thunder locust ant’s physique.

As for Locke’s request to double the payment of Zihuang Bamboo, in addition to making up for the gap in the blood locust stone, it is also convenient for him to put it in his pocket.

This is a tacit transaction. Although Locke is the manager sent by the Knights’ Hall to the Maglev Mountain Range, he cannot blatantly extort hundreds of thousands of creatures from the Maglev Mountain Range.

Doing too much will cause dissatisfaction on the part of the higher authorities, or cause the people to live in dire straits, so that the amount of materials handed over in the next quarter will not meet the standard, and some of them will suffer for Locke.

After resting in Yao’s tribe for a while, Locke left and headed to the location of the next tribe.

On the way, Locke pointed to the Yao tribe that had just left and said to An, “Remember, the amount of blood locust stones handed in from this tribe will be halved, and the amount of Zihuang bamboo handed in will be doubled!”

An nodded ignorantly, and wrote it down.

No matter which plane you are in, if you want to mix well, you really need a flexible brain.

It is said that the Thunder Locust Clan has low intelligence, except for fertility and combat effectiveness, other indicators are lower than the Redmonds, but Locke doesn’t think so today.

Yao, the leader of the Thunder Locust Tribe, was much smarter than those previous leaders of the Redmond Tribe who didn’t know how to adapt.

The Magnetic Suspension Mountain Range is both big and small. Locke thought that he could complete the task of collecting Thunder Stones from all the tribes in one day, but he didn’t expect to be busy for two days before finishing all the tribes.

It is also the strong suppression and orders led by many slave creatures in the past two days, so that all the intelligent native creatures in the magnetic suspension mountain range know this new first-level knight.

Back at the hilltop residence, Locke was exhausted, but he was not in a hurry to rest, but patiently listened to Ann’s report summarizing the gains of the past two days.

In the entire Magnetic Suspension Mountain Range, there are nearly a hundred tribes and hundreds of thousands of creatures. This is the first time that Locke manages such a large area and has such a high authority.

“A total of 98 ethnic groups, 56 of which completed the payment amount, 37 tribes ensured to make up the amount handed in within the next three weeks, and only five ethnic groups said that they really could not complete it.” Ann reported to Rockhui.

Locke roughly knew the situation of the five ethnic groups. They were located at the center of the volcanic eruption. They were lucky if they didn’t wipe out all the clans. The casualties in the clan were heavy, and it was useless for Locke to force them.

He couldn’t conjure up mining clansmen for these races out of thin air.

“The payment amount of the five races can be reduced a little as appropriate.” Locke touched his chin and said, “You can find other races to make up for the shortfall. If the payment amount of the five races is divided equally, they can also complete it.”

“Yes.” Ann replied.

Locke’s actions made Ann feel that this knight was not as cruel as she imagined. At least in some details, Locke was better than her predecessor. Race, cornered.

There is also part of Ann’s subjective wishes, because three of the five ethnic groups that could not complete the payment tasks are from Redmond.

Ann is a kind Redmond girl.

After waving his hand to let Ann go, Locke was free to lie down and rest for a while.

The task of stationing in the Magnetic Suspension Mountains is not exhausting. He only needs to pay attention to the situation of materials handed in every quarter. Thunder Chishi is the most important thing, and there must be no sloppy.

The importance of other types of materials is at the first level, such as the two boxes of Zihuang bamboo that Locke took bribes, and the blood locust stones that the Thunder Locust Tribe urgently needs.

Holding a light blue stone in the palm of his hand, Locke, who is practicing wind-type grudge, can clearly feel the thunder-type and fire-type energies contained in it. What is the reason for this thunder-blazing stone that has attracted so much attention from the Knights’ Palace.

After observing for a long time, nothing was found.

Locke is not a person who likes to get into the horns of the dead, so if he can’t figure it out, he doesn’t think about it, and simply falls asleep.

He will stay here for another year, and there will be plenty of time for him to explore, and when he first arrives on the alien plane, besides completing the tasks given by the Knights Hall, he has his own plans.

In the dream, Locke dreamed of women far away in another dimension.
