Western Fantasy Lord: Starting with Daily Intelligence

Chapter 104 Justice Descends from Heaven 2.0

On the road not covered by dense forest, several figures walked slowly into the distance, with Vivian following behind, dragging a wolf cub that looked like a dead dog.

"Could you tell me about the situation within the Blue Ox tribe?" Connors asked with a smile.

Although he learned a lot from the information provided by Grand Duchess Ophelia, it was certainly not as accurate or comprehensive as the information from insiders of the Blue Ox tribe.

"You think I'll just tell you?" Dominic mumbled dismissively, "I'm not entirely sure either..."

'

"Domi is the chieftain's son, he knows a lot." Before he could finish speaking, Bianca interrupted with a boastful look.

Meeting Connors's enigmatic gaze, Dominic's lips twitched, and he said helplessly, "What do you want to know?"

Connors stroked his chin thoughtfully for a moment, then asked, "Does your tribe have any difficulties, or anything that requires assistance?"

Dominic gave Connors a strange look, sizing him up and down.

"You really want to help us?"

"Really? I said it from the beginning." Connors spread his hands and shrugged.

Dominic pondered for a moment and said, "For our Blue Ox tribe, the biggest shortage is probably food."

"

At this point, his face was filled with helplessness: "We, the Green Ox race, have an appetite comparable to that of the Dragonmen, but our combat strength is less than half that of the Dragonmen."

Dragonmen are the strongest branch of the orcs in terms of both combat power and potential, with the best among them even surpassing the White Tigers.

Upon hearing this, Connors' eyes showed a thoughtful expression.

soon.

Two towers made of wooden arrows appeared ahead of the road, along with a cluster of thatched huts. Wisps of white smoke rose from the settlement and drifted away on the wind.

Two guards on the tower, carrying quivers, noticed this and quickly nocked their bows, aimed, and shouted, "This is the Qingniu tribe. Who goes there? State your name!"

"Taban, Brother Tal, it's me!" Dominic waved vigorously.

The guards on the two towers squinted, and after seeing clearly, they breathed a sigh of relief and lowered their bows.

Connors and his group successfully entered the Blue Ox tribe.

As soon as he entered, he was met by an elderly man with fierce eyes and a stature even taller than Connors. The old man's eyes flashed with menacing intent upon seeing Dominic.

Dominic shuddered and took two steps back in fear.

"How many times have I told you not to leave the tribe without permission? And this time you even brought Bianca along! You're asking for a beating!" The old man walked over aggressively, grabbed his horns, and slapped him repeatedly with his large, pot-sized hands.

Dominic, howling from the beating, quickly said, "Dad, Dad, there are guests here. I brought guests with me. Please give me some face."

The old man frowned, then looked at Connors, who was watching the show with great interest.

"Hello, I am Connors Jon, from the Kingdom of Steel Dragons," Connors introduced himself.

The Steel Dragon Kingdom? The old man frowned.

At this moment, Bianca quickly interjected, "Uncle Gaoji, thanks to Brother Connors and Sister Vivian's help, otherwise we would have died at the hands of the Mountain Wolf Clan."

The old man, known as Gao Ji, glanced coldly at Dominic, who shrank back guiltily and looked away.

However, Gao Ji's expression softened, and he said sincerely, "Thank you very much for saving my good-for-nothing son and Bianca. However, if you don't want to encounter danger, I advise you to go back. There are many tribes in the Chaotic Lands that are very hostile to humans, including the mountain wolf tribe you encountered."

Connors shook his head: "I'm here to discuss cooperation with your Blue Ox tribe."

Cooperation?

Gao Ji looked surprised.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation since becoming the clan chief.

After all, his Green Ox tribe was indeed rather weak. When humans wanted to cooperate, they usually did so with powerful tribes, such as the Angry Tiger, Crimson Dragon, and Sky Eagle tribes deep in the Chaotic Lands.

Although they are relatively close to the Steel Dragon Kingdom, they have never been approached by anyone from there seeking cooperation.

"Does Chief Gaoji intend to speak here?" Seeing him lost in thought, Connors smiled faintly.

Gao Ji said, "Please follow me."

He turned and glared at Dominic, "I'll deal with you later, you brat."

Dominic gave an awkward smile and didn't dare to speak.

His father had a very explosive temper and usually liked to use body language to express himself.

Connors and Vivian followed Gaoji all the way, and the people of the Green Ox tribe they encountered along the way all stopped and stared at him curiously, as if he were being paraded through the streets.

While the Qingniu tribe was observing him, he was also observing the situation of the tribe.

This tribe has a relatively large number of able-bodied young men, but the overall social level of the tribe is very backward. The Steel Dragon Kingdom was already very backward, but this place is even more backward.

The two followed Gao Ji to a rather nice thatched house. The furnishings inside were simple, with only a meadow and no fancy furniture.

After the three sat down, Gao Ji glanced at the luxurious and exquisite clothes worn by Connors and Vivian, then looked at the simple surroundings, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, due to limited resources, this is all I can offer to entertain you two."

"It's alright, I don't mind. Back in the day, my territory probably wasn't as good as yours," Connors waved his hand.

Gao Ji looked at the wolf cub that Vivian was dragging along and asked, "This is...?"

'

"You don't need to mind this, just ignore it. I have some questions to ask, so I've been carrying it with me." Connors coughed twice and got straight to the point: "You live here, so you should know that there are a lot of mineral veins around here, right?"

"That's right, many veins are even exposed," Gao Ji said with some regret. "Unfortunately, the conditions in my Qingniu tribe are backward, making mining extremely difficult."

Connors considered carefully and said, "As far as I know, the Blue Ox tribe often lacks food, right? I'd like to use that as a condition to get the Blue Ox tribe to mine a nearby vein for me. Of course, I will provide the tools you need."

Chief Gaoji laughed heartily, then shook his head: "This nobleman from the Steel Dragon Kingdom probably has no idea what kind of food our Green Ox tribe consumes each month."

"Our Qingniu tribe has about 500 people. A single adult Qingniu can eat 200 pounds of fruits and vegetables a month."

Connors's mental mental calculations.

Each blue cattle breed yields 200 pounds per month, so 500 blue cattle breeds would yield 100000 pounds per month, which translates to approximately 45 tons per month.

He secretly considered whether the agricultural output of Baihe Town could bear this burden.

Seeing him fall silent, the glimmer of hope in Gao Ji's eyes vanished, and he shook his head, about to ask him to leave, when Connors looked up and said with a smile, "Sure, no problem at all."

Gao Ji was stunned.

"You, you, you've thought it through. That's no small sum." He stammered, somewhat excited and at a loss for words, as he confirmed.

Connors smiled. "That's not a problem at all."

The two then discussed some details and successfully reached a cooperation agreement.

Mountain Wolf Tribe.

"Chief, the bodies of Aguli and the others have been found in the forest. There is a strong scent of the Green Ox tribe at the scene, so it is likely that they were responsible." A wolf scout knelt on one knee below the platform to report.

Click!

The mountain wolf chieftain crushed the cup, his face extremely gloomy.

"A bunch of trash dared to kill members of my Mountain Wolf tribe! Gather the hunting party; we're going to the Green Ox tribe to demand an explanation!"

"Yes, sir!"

The spies below the stage left excitedly, their eyes filled with bloodlust.

In the evening, Connors sat cross-legged on the meadow with his eyes closed, his face calm, his chest rising and falling in a peculiar rhythm.

Vivian rested her head on his lap, sleeping arrogantly, sprawled out on her back.

Suddenly, a familiar fluorescent blue light screen popped up in front of him. Connors opened his eyes and didn't hear the bell, which felt a little strange.

He looked at the intelligence displayed on the screen, and when he got to the last piece of information, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

[Intelligence 4: Mountain wolves are on their way, planning a night attack]

He quickly patted Vivian's cheek to wake her up.

"Ugh... What's wrong, Lord Connors..." Vivian asked sleepily, rubbing her eyes.

"The daytime mountain wolves are about to attack," Connors said seriously.

Vivian snapped out of her daze and asked, "What should we do, Lord Connors?"

Connors was deep in thought.

The Green Ox tribe was a crucial piece in his plan to mine the energy crystal vein, and he couldn't afford to lose it. However, he and Vivian alone couldn't take over the Green Ox tribe, because according to the information provided by Grand Duchess Ophelia, the Mountain Wolf tribe had seven guardian knights... He pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up: "I've got it!"

The two quickly went outside and arrived at Gao Ji's door.

Bang bang bang!

Connors pounded on the door, and after a while, the door opened.

Gao Ji appeared before the two men with anger in his eyes. Upon seeing that it was Connors, he took a deep breath and put on a smile: "I wonder what urgent matter Mr. Connors may have to do so late at night?"

This is a major client; we can't afford to offend them.

Connors spoke rapidly: "The Mountain Wolf tribe is attacking; I'm afraid they're up to no good."

Gao Ji's expression immediately turned serious, and he looked somewhat anxious.

Their Green Ox tribe was no match for the Mountain Wolf tribe. In the past, they would try to avoid them or stay away from them. What happened this time?

He suddenly realized what had happened when he recalled the Mountain Wolf tribe members who had been like dead dogs during the day.

I feel quite helpless.

"No need to rush, Chief Gaoji, I have a plan to repel the enemy." Connors took out a round ball mine from his floating bracelet and smiled mysteriously: "This thing is called the Justice Ball Mine, a unique weapon of our Lily Town."

The sleeping residents of the Blue Ox tribe were awakened, and then the outsider from earlier in the day shoved a dark ball into their hands.

They looked bewildered and curiously examined the ball mine in their hands.

After sending the signal, Connors glanced at Chief Gaoji. Having received the signal, he called out loudly, "Clan members, I will give you a signal in a moment. When you receive the signal, throw the black ball in your hand as hard as you can in the direction I'm pointing. Do you understand?"

The members of the Green Ox tribe looked at each other in bewilderment. They were suddenly awakened in the middle of the night, and their chieftain suddenly acted out of character. They were completely confused, but due to the chieftain's prestige and his volatile temper, they still responded in a few scattered words.

This was something Connors and Gao Ji had agreed upon beforehand. These blue bulls had not received any training, and even though they possessed extraordinary strength, they still had the mentality of ordinary people.

So it's better for them not to know what's going to happen.

Otherwise, once panic is triggered, it will be difficult to organize.

The hazy moonlight cast a soft glow over the dense forest under the night sky.

Rustling sounds...

In the dense forest, dozens of mountain wolves darted about, galloping towards the distant Green Ox tribe.

The leaders possessed particularly powerful auras.

At this moment, the chieftain of the mountain wolf tribe in front suddenly slowed down, raised his hand, and signaled to stop.

A rustling sound came from the dense forest ahead, and every member of the hunting team stared ahead, their nerves on edge.

The hunting party is the elite force of the Mountain Wolf tribe, possessing rich combat experience. It is the sharpest spear of the entire tribe and is directly commanded by the chieftain.

A figure emerged from the dense forest ahead and knelt on one knee upon seeing the Mountain Wolf Clan Chief: "Chief, the people of the Green Ox Tribe suddenly came out of their homes and gathered together. We don't know what they are doing, but a human male is giving them something."

"Human race..." Upon hearing the word "human race," the mountain wolf chieftain's eyes flashed with killing intent.

The hunting party following behind them did the same.

In the chaotic lands, the mountain wolf race is extremely hostile to humans, killing anyone they see, regardless of the reason. It seems that anyone born as a human deserves to die.

Reasoning with extreme racists is useless; they will always inexplicably attribute the cause of the problem to racial discrimination.

"The Green Ox tribe is weak in combat. Even if that human is a guardian knight, he's no match for us. Ignore them, proceed as planned." The Mountain Wolf chieftain turned around, his gaze fierce. "It's time to let the humans feel fear once again!"

After they left, arcs of electricity crackled in the surrounding trees, and Vivian appeared there, looking at the disturbing leaves in the distance, muttering, "How strange."

yah...

She vanished in a flash, and when she reappeared, she was back beside Connors, tiptoed and whispered a few words in his ear.

After listening, Connors stood up and pointed in a certain direction.

Gao Ji received the signal, nodded, turned and picked up an arrow, lit it in the brazier, and shot it in a certain direction: "Clan members, throw your black balls with all your might towards the direction of the arrow!"

The people of the Green Ox tribe casually raised their hands and threw them out forcefully.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

It was clear they weren't using their full strength, but a series of sounds of air being torn apart still echoed in mid-air.

Connors shook his head. It seemed that not telling them about the mountain wolf attack was the right choice.

Who knows what would happen if the whole truth were revealed?

In the distance, the mountain wolf chieftain suddenly stopped, and the hunting party behind him also stopped.

"What's wrong, clan leader? What happened?"

The mountain wolf chieftain raised his hand, signaling for silence. He closed his eyes, his wolf ears twitching as he listened intently.

A faint whooshing sound could be heard in the air.

He looked up and carefully observed the sky.

Under the cover of night, the black silhouettes moved faintly, extremely inconspicuous, and almost invisible.

next moment.

A round, black sphere landed at my feet.

The mountain wolf chieftain squatted down in confusion and picked up the black sphere, which trembled incessantly in his hand.

Crack... A crack appeared on it.
