Chapter 88: Craftsmen

Dorae Tu City, the end of the world is coming.

The goblin warriors and goblin knights who went out to participate in the search were the last force of the Ground Flame Tribe. When they were devastatingly hit by the Thunder Beast War Camp in the mountains and forests, the small town on the north bank of Mirror Lake was completely in chaos.

There were very few goblin warriors left in the city, and no powerful leader came forward to lead them. The escape of leader Terina became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

So when the Thunder Beast Battle Camp, which had won a great victory, launched an attack on Tucheng under the command of Rock Hammer, the goblin warriors in the city did not organize any decent resistance at all.

Only those warriors who stayed at the Arrow Tower tried to intercept with bows and arrows, but the rebels were either killed by Akran's fireballs or shot into hornet's nest by thunder beast archers.

Most goblin warriors ran around in panic like green-skinned goblins, trying to find a safe place to hide.

The mines leading to the mountains in the city became their last choice, and those maze-like underground passages had too many places to hide.

Therefore, the Thunder Beast warriors rushed into Dolay almost without any obstacles, and quickly occupied the entire small city, suppressing some sporadic resistance in the city.

When Leon came back, he saw the thunder beast battle flag fluttering in the wind on the walls of Doraetu!

"Brother Lei, we won!"

Yan Hammer shouted loudly, wishing that everyone on the continent would know his victory - this Bear Hammer was the first to break into the city.

"Fortunately!" Leon smiled and punched him in the chest: "Don't be careless, there are many houses here, be careful that enemies will hide."

"Most of the goblins hid in the mines, and the others were basically captured by us, including a group of craftsmen." Akran, who was standing beside him, smiled: "I think you will definitely be very interested in them."

"Oh, by the way, we have also rescued a group of slaves from the beast clan!"

There are as many as five or six hundred orchid slaves in the city of Doraetu. Most of them are bears, cows, horses, wolves, tigers and other ethnic groups, and they are basically relatively strong young men.

These beasts came from different tribes and were captured in the battle of goblins. They were engaged in the most hard and dangerous work in the Ground Flame Tribe, and the treatment they received was worse than that of the Green Skin Goblins.

Therefore, the beast tribes that Leon saw were all covered in bruises and dirty bodies. The long-term hunger made them all very skinny and thin, and many of them were suffering from diseases.

However, when they realized that they and others had been rescued, many people shed tears of excitement, and some people, despite their weakness, wanted to find weapons to avenge the goblins.

Leon personally came out to comfort them, and finally ordered Yanmao: "These are our brothers and brothers. Let Luo Ya work harder to treat them well, and don't give them too much food."

"Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of them." Yan Chuan nodded.

Looking at these suffering compatriots, he felt uncomfortable and hated the goblins even more: "Brother Lei, what should I do if those goblins hiding in the mines? Should I take people to kill in?"

"Don't worry, let them live for a while!" Leon smiled, but his eyes were cold: "I'll give them a good look later. Just send someone to guard the entrance of the cave first!"

If most of the goblins had not been gone, it would have been difficult to control this small city with more than 300 Thunder Beast Warriors. Leon took a walk around several vital places in the city and saw the craftsman Aklan mentioned that he could interest him.

What surprised him was that these craftsmen with more than 50 people were all human races!

Under the custody of several fully armed Thunder Beast Warriors, these human craftsmen all seemed very frightened. They didn't know what their fate would be, and many people even knelt on the ground and cried and prayed.

From Aklan's mouth, Leon knew that they were all working in various workshops of the tribe. When the goblins ran away, they were all left behind, and then they were searched out by the Thunder Beast Warriors to gather together.

Compared with goblins, the beast race does not have much hostility to the human race.

"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you. Is anyone among you the leader?" Leon asked gently.

As Akran said, Leon was really interested in this group of craftsmen.

For a long time, the Mad Hammer Tribe has not even a craftsman. Even the most common iron pot needs to be purchased from outside, let alone equipment such as weapons.

Even in the entire Bemon Kingdom, there are not many excellent craftsmen. The Bemon beast tribe is brave and good at fighting, but is not good at various craftsmanship. Therefore, the kingdom uses various specialty minerals to exchange for excellent weapons, armor and other things from the human country every year.

In this regard, the human race has an absolute advantage. Many human craftsmen produce weapons, handicrafts, jewelry, daily necessities, etc. are sold throughout the continent, even the demon race likes it very much.

There are more than fifty human craftsmen in this goblin tribe, which is a surprise for Leon.

The city of Dolai Tu is full of smelting workshops, and refining ore metal to build weapons has become a large-scale industry. The piles of slag piles piles of piles of slag along the lakes outside the city are the best proof.

With these craftsmen, the Crazy Hammer Tribe has the ability to produce its own weapons and equipment, and no longer has to take the risk of Leon to buy it in the human town, which undoubtedly greatly improves the tribe's strength.

When Leon's inquiry was met, the craftsmen looked at each other, no one dared to answer, and everyone's face was filled with fear.

"Who do you want to talk to me?" Leon had to ask again.

This time, someone finally stood up.

"My lord, I am their instructor. Do you have any instructions?"

What came out was an old man with gray hair, with a burly figure, dark skin, and a wrinkled face full of deep marks of wind and frost baptism.

Leon noticed that his hands were particularly thick and calluses on them.

"May I have your name?"

"Rubin, Rubin Shugest, Lord."

"Rubin Shugst..." Leon looked at the other party with interest. Being able to have a surname means that the old craftsman is likely to be a descendant of a nobleman, or from a family.

"You don't need to be afraid. I can guarantee your safety. I am Leon from the Mad Hammer Tribe and the commander of the Bemon army who just occupied this place." Leon signaled the soldiers beside him to move a chair: "Please sit down, I have some questions to ask you."

Perhaps Leon's kind attitude infected the other party. The old craftsman named Rubin Shugst let go of his nervous mood and sat opposite Leon.

Through conversation, Leon realized that all the human craftsmen here were purchased by the Diyan Tribe from the slave trade team.

After the Diyan tribe occupied the city of Dolay, they found that there were rich mineral reserves under the mountains and rivers of the city. Although they had green goblins that could mine, they lacked the means to smel and build weapons.

Therefore, the Diyan tribe and the slave traders of the human race reached an agreement and purchased several batches of human craftsmen one after another. In the end, half of the precious metals smelted were sold to the slave traders and half of them were presented to the elves.

The source of these craftsmen is relatively complicated. Some are bankrupt civilians, some offended the prisoners who were imprisoned by the nobles, and some were directly raped.

Rubin Shugest was originally a descendant of a small nobleman somewhere, but his father's family was ruined and he became a blacksmith for his livelihood.

His situation is quite special. He was hired, but later he found out that he was deceived. However, if he was brought here, he would not have the chance to escape. In desperation, he stayed in Dolay Tucheng for several years.

Because Rubin Shugst is very skilled and the oldest, he is very prestigious among a group of human craftsmen, and even the goblins are more polite to him.

So that's it! Leon understood the ins and outs of the other party and others.

He thought for a while and said, "Hisser Rubin, I sympathize with your experience, but I also hope you can understand that our Mad Hammer Tribe needs excellent craftsmen like you to serve us..."

Seeing the other party's face a little helpless, Leon smiled and said, "But you can rest assured that we will never treat you like goblins. As long as you work for me seriously, I will give you enough respect and reasonable treatment."

"And I will not leave you in the tribe indefinitely. As long as you help the people in our tribe master the skills they need, you can leave freely, and I will also give you some money!"

"Really?" Rubin couldn't help but open his eyes wide, with a dazzling look of hope in his eyes.

The craftsmen were also a little turbulent. No one didn't desire freedom. They lived a very painful life when facing the ugly and fierce goblins all day long. Of course, they would be excited to hear the promises made by Leon.

"I can make a vow to the great beast god. As long as you let our tribe master all the skills, I will send you away!" Leon said with a smile.

It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. Of course, Leon is very clear about this principle. Only by giving hope can these craftsmen truly contribute to themselves and the Crazy Hammer Tribe and teach their skills seriously.

As long as the people in the tribe master the skills, it doesn't matter whether they are kept or not.

"Okay! I promise you!" Rubin immediately stood up and said, "I don't think everyone will have any objections."

Of course no one would raise objections, but such treatment is the best for the craftsmen. You can't expect Leon to foolishly release them all now, right?

"Sir Leon, I know a secret warehouse of the black elf Gelina, which contains many things. I will take you to find it now!"
