Chapter 238 Give him the entire salt mine!
"Here's the thing, we were attacked by monsters from Black Earth City, and in the nick of time..."
Wu Weier sorted out her thoughts and tried her best to make the situation sound more dangerous.
In short... just when all of them were about to be wiped out, Xiao Yu saved them all.
"What did you say? A powerful human saved you?"
Upon hearing this, several high-ranking members of the Beast City stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
No one else knew; only the higher-ups of the Beast City knew.
The orcs of Beast City are not allowed to leave the Beast Mountain Range at will.
Therefore, they know very little about the outside world.
Not to mention the newly developed mobile cities.
They are wild men living in the forest!
“Yes! Deputy City Lord, without that Dragon City Lord, we would all be dead!” Wu Wei’er nodded and waved to Er Ya, signaling her to bring the dozen or so wounded over.
When I saw that the dozen or so people had serious injuries, they had all received medical treatment and were bandaged up.
The leaders were both surprised and delighted.
Surprisingly, the orcs' medical skills were so poor that they didn't understand these things.
The good news is that these companions' broken arms and legs have all been set, so they will have no problem surviving.
"In that case, we owe that Dragon City Lord a great debt! Normally, I would definitely invite him to visit Beast City, but now, a great battle is imminent..."
The deputy city lord with the dog-headed head looked at Wu Weier and cautiously probed,
"I wonder why he came to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range?"
The three leaders also thought of this and were somewhat worried.
This Dragon City Lord is very powerful. Could he also be here to seize the salt mine?
Orcs have always been known for their strong sense of gratitude and vengeance, repaying kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge.
The Dragon City Lord, whom they had never met before, was the one who saved them; naturally, he was a friend of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
But what if the other party is here to seize the salt mine? How should they respond?
“Vice City Lord! Dragon City has all sorts of good things, including a large quantity of vegetables and fruits, high-level weapons and armor, and top-quality healing medicines. The City Lord of Dragon City enjoys traveling around and trading with other cities. He came to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range specifically to trade with my Ten Thousand Beasts City.”
Wu Weier didn't directly mention Xiao Yu's intentions regarding the salt mine; instead, she first talked about the good things in Longcheng.
"What? A top-grade healing elixir? Tell me quickly, what are the effects of this healing elixir?"
Upon hearing Wu Weier's words, the leaders were filled with shock and excitement.
Even the kobold deputy city lord leaned forward slightly, his face full of anticipation.
They were in dire need of vegetables, fruits, weapons, and armor.
Although they had a lot of energy stones, they had no way of buying them.
However... what they cared about most was the top-grade healing elixir that Wu Weier had mentioned.
“We have three good sisters who are under the command of that Dragon City Lord. They are also orcs, and they are the first generation. As you know, the first generation of orcs suffered so much from the violent power within their bodies.”
Once the ability is used, it's worse than death, and the user could go berserk at any moment.
But now, thanks to eating the Bodhi Fruit from the Dragon City Lord, they are able to control the raging beastly nature within them and use their abilities freely! Moreover, each of them has increased their strength by more than tenfold.
You see, we are in the same situation now.
As they spoke, Wu Weier and Er Ya exchanged a glance, and simultaneously displayed their abilities.
"Hiss~ It's only been a day, and you've improved so much? Er Ya has even broken through to the fifth rank? Is it really that effective?" Sensing the amazing changes in the two, the others widened their eyes.
"What does the Dragon City Lord want?" The dog-headed deputy city lord, who had just sat down, stood up abruptly and asked eagerly.
All he wants to know now is what the other party wants in order to sell them the Bodhi fruit.
"That deputy city lord, Dragon City is also in dire need of salt!" Wu Weier said weakly.
She also knew that life in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts was very difficult, and they had to find their own supplies.
Therefore, I always felt that the leaders would definitely not give up half of the salt mine.
It's estimated that they've already called for reinforcements. Once the reinforcements arrive, the two sides might end up fighting each other.
However, the next second, something shocking happened...
“Sure! If he really wants it, we can give him the entire salt mine!” The deputy city lord, Dog Head, said decisively without even thinking.
The three leaders, who had just declared they would defend the salt mine to the death, offered no objection whatsoever.
"What?! Give them all to Longcheng? Am I deaf? Or are you all insane?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Weier looked at Er Ya blankly.
But all they saw was the red-haired beastwoman looking completely bewildered.
Are these outpost leaders all insane?
Didn't we say before how important the salt mines were to Beast City?
Without salt, how will you survive?
"Actually... they only want half!" Er Ya weakly raised her hand to indicate.
She said that simply to confirm whether it was true or not, but...
"Very well! I agree!"
The deputy city lord with the dog-headed head remained firm in his tone and waved his hand, saying, "As long as he can trade with us for that magical Bodhi fruit, we can give him half of this salt mine."
"Yes! This is good!"
The three leaders nodded in agreement.
"Is this it?"
Wu Weier and Er Ya exchanged a glance, both overjoyed.
They really didn't expect things to be resolved so easily.
It seems that the deputy city lord and the three leaders are quite open-minded, which makes things easier.
Wu Weier thought of Xiao Yu's words and spoke again: "Deputy City Lord, three leaders! The City Lord of Dragon City said that the Salt Mine was the first transaction between Ten Thousand Beasts City and Dragon City. Since he took half of the Salt Mine, he will help you destroy Black Soil City."
I'll reply to him right away! I'll ask him to help immediately!
After saying that, he pulled Er Ya away from the cave and quickly went to Longcheng to seek help.
The deputy city lord with the dog-headed head and the three leaders, who were still standing there, all looked completely bewildered.
Is it true or not? Why would the Lord of Dragon City help them to this extent?
Moreover, he immediately declared that he would wipe out Black Soil City. Is he really that arrogant?
I always feel that giving too much makes it seem unrealistic.
After all, the other party is powerful and can easily reap the benefits.
"How about we take another look?" the three leaders said, somewhat uncertainly.
"Hmm, let's see! If they are truly sincere, we'll treat them with courtesy; if..." The dog-headed deputy city lord's eyes darted around, a cold glint flashing within them.
Humans have always been the ones capturing, hunting, and suppressing orcs.
They were driven to this desolate land, and they couldn't even leave the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range!
However, the orcs have never launched an attack on the human world.
Those who are friendly to orcs will never repay kindness with enmity.
They will never yield to those who want to invade their territory or harm their fellow countrymen.
They'll fight to the death!
The dog-headed deputy city lord gazed towards the direction of Beast City, his eyes filled with reverence.
"I just hope that everything Wu Weier said is true! That the Lord of Dragon City isn't the kind of two-faced person. If that's the case... perhaps Her Majesty the Queen can be saved!"
