Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 29 Establishing a Stronghold

In the early morning, Nord came to the training ground in the small courtyard early and found that Lehman and Reed were already training. It turned out that he was the one who got up the latest. No wonder he ate breakfast by himself every time. Get into the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.

Lehman, Reid, training so early today.

Master Nord, Reed is too lazy, I will train him well in the future, and now he follows you all day, how can he do without fighting power.

Reed opened his mouth to refute, but thought that he had indeed lost to Lord Nord, and couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, and the wooden sword in his hand became even faster.

Don't underestimate me, Lehman, I am also very capable.

After finishing speaking, he smiled and ignored Reed who was sulking. That's fine. Let Lehman give some encouragement so that this jumpy young man can calm down. Nord also started today's training. Choose to continue to compete with Reed.

At the end of today's training, Nord called Lehman and the two, ready to go out to see if the others had arrived, and at the same time, the information of the system appeared in front of him.

[After hard training, your one-handed weapon proficiency will increase by 2 points]

[Daily task: Establish a stronghold]

[Mission description: The vast and boundless Amon Mountains are majestic and mysterious. The idea of ​​exploring the mountains has been lingering in your mind. Take the first step bravely. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and you are building a small stronghold]

[Task Reward: Experience × 100 Bread × 10 Jinse Coin × 10]

Looking at the refreshed daily tasks, Nord had an idea in his mind.

As time went by, the square in front of the courtyard was full of people, whether it was the previous hunters or the newly joined young men, they were all in a turbulent mood at the moment, talking together in twos and threes.

The three of Nord came to the square after the training. After everyone arrived, Nord walked to the center of the crowd. Looking at these energetic hunters, Nord spoke slowly.

From now on, you will no longer be ordinary villagers. From now on, you will belong to my guard. The direction that the long sword in my hand is pointing to is the way forward for you. There are brave and skilled fighters among you. I may be named a knight by me, the glory of a knight depends on your bloody battle!

The golden sunlight in the early morning shone on Nuo De, as if covering Nuo De with a layer of sacred cloak. Listening to Nuo De's promise to them, everyone breathed heavily, and looked at Nuo De with piercing eyes. There is desire in it, desire for battle, desire for glory.

From now on, you will gather for training every morning, and the location will be temporarily set in this square. Now your daily task is to follow me to inspect the mountains and forests. Let's start now.

After speaking, Nord asked them to rush to the construction site of the manor first, took some tools from the villagers who were building the manor, and set off for yesterday's wild boar hole.

Yesterday Nord was thinking about using the Wild Boar Cave as a stronghold, but it just so happened that the task could not be sent out today. It would be better to hit the sun today, so let’s build this stronghold today.

The experienced old Moore still led the way, but Nord looked at the map, and from time to time he wanted to give old Moore some advice. Man will inevitably take some detours in the mountains and forests.

Of course, Nord would not tell Old Moore that he had switched off... The map provided by the system clearly showed the terrain of the mountains and forests, and the ravines, cols, cliffs, and rivers were clearly visible, which allowed Nord to clearly choose the most direct road. It's just that the scope is a bit small, and currently only shows the tip of the iceberg of the Amon Mountains.

It seems that they have to find a way to expand the area of ​​the map. Not long after, they have come outside the cave. Nord divides the work, Lehman leads ten people to cut down trees outside, and Marco takes the rest to clean up the cave. Anyway, Nod De won't go in until the cave is cleared.

Marco didn't have any objections, and he led people into the cave after hearing Nord's order, and Lehman also began to direct everyone to cut down the big trees outside the cave, only Nord was a little idle.

After looking at the busy people, Nord decided to continue studying the map. The Wild Boar Cave is 15 kilometers from Tammy Village to the north. It takes about two or three hours to go over two mountains. There is a river to the west of the Wild Boar Cave. , it seems to be the river that flows through the village, but I didn't expect this small river to wind and turn and reach the vicinity of the wild boar cave.

Nord studied the map quietly, and the work of everyone was not slow. Marco brought a group of people, and quickly cleaned up the excrement in the cave, and threw the excrement into the distant forest. Nord also ordered Marco lit a few fires in the cleaned cave, not only to remove the peculiar smell in the cave, but also to kill the snakes, insects, rats and ants in the cave.

Lehman also quickly cleared an open space outside the cave, especially after Marco and others finished cleaning the cave and joined them, the outside of the cave was soon filled with felled trees.

Looking at the progress of the work in front of him, Nord praised Lehman, Marko and others. Taking advantage of the early weather, Nord suggested that everyone should work harder and use the felled wood to make the hole and the open space outside the hole. They are surrounded by simple fences to prevent wild animals from entering the cave.

Nord walked into the cleaned-up cave. The fire in the cave was about to go out, and the air was not as full of bad smell as last time, but the light was still dim, and the oxygen in the cave was sufficient. There is no sense of suffocation due to the burning flames in the cave. It seems that the ventilation conditions inside the cave are good.

Relying on the burning flames, Nord looked at the cave again. The internal structure was similar to a circular arc, and the stones on the surrounding walls were irregularly raised, which could be polished slowly after living in it. The ground under his feet was also very dry. No corpses of poisonous insects were found in the cave. It seems that this is good news. I don't know if the environment of the cave is not suitable for the survival of snakes, insects, rats and ants, or it is because of wild boars.

Walking out of the cave, Nord is very satisfied with this cave. Not only is the geographical location superior, but the condition of the cave is also excellent, making it a perfect choice for a stronghold.

At the entrance of the cave, Marco is installing a door for the entrance of the cave. This door is also very simple. It is tied together with wrist-thick branches crossed and crossed. The bottom is sharpened and inserted into the ground. The branches at the bottom are denser. It seems that small animals Get in.

Nord smiled when he saw this door. This door is very artistic, a bit anti-gentleman but not villainous. Nord did not disturb their interest, and went out to see the situation outside.

Lehman relied on the surrounding trees to build a protective area, and drove some thick wooden stakes between the trees in a circle. Some branches of varying thickness were inserted between the wooden stakes and the trees, and they were connected horizontally with thinner branches. Simple The fence has begun to take shape.

Lehman, you did a good job. I didn't expect you to have such a skill.

Master Nord, everyone here will do the same. The poor in the village can't afford to build a yard, so just use this method to build a fence.

Really? I really don't understand.

Nord smiled awkwardly, and told Lehman to check the time before he could take the people back. Let’s finish today and continue tomorrow. Lehman nodded to express his understanding.
