Chapter 470 The Bold Orcs
"Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet, Fox, from the fox tribe."
Fox saluted gracefully.
Lu Chen looked at the other party and said, "I do have a solution. Although it can't solve the crisis for a lifetime, at least within a hundred years, food will no longer be a problem."
Byron's eyes widened, "Say it quickly."
"I am going to develop new food seeds. The new seeds will grow quickly on the most barren land and have a good yield. As long as they are widely planted, everyone will be able to eat enough in the future."
Lu Chen is drawing big cakes. In fact, he doesn't know if Little Fairy Milk and the others will be successful or not, and what the seed yield will be if they succeed. But at this time, the orcs must be stabilized before they can follow up.
"New seeds?"
Byron was a little puzzled, "Seeds can also develop new ones?"
He has heard of the development of new combat skills, military formations, and magic, but he has not heard of the development of new seeds. Aren't all kinds of plants in nature a fixed number?
"Yes, as long as there are sufficient research funds and research materials, there is hope to cultivate new excellent seeds, and my people are already working on it."
Lu Chen nodded.
Fox continued to talk under the instruction of the Beastman King, "I heard from what the Duke said, even if it is possible to develop new seeds, it will take a lot of time, right? Wouldn't my orc clan still go hungry this year?"
Lu Chen said frankly: "That's right, it's very likely to be the case."
"Are you trying to persuade me to retreat with something that doesn't exist yet?"
The Beast King's words were full of ferocity, which could not solve the current problem at all.
"I just said that it is very possible, but if the seed research progresses quickly, there are still more than two months before winter. If this month can be completed, the first batch of grains may be produced shortly after winter, which is barely enough. Solve the needs of the orcs."
The reason why Lu Chen said it was reluctant was because during the waiting period, some orcs would definitely starve to death due to food shortage.
"More than two months? What kind of seeds can grow so fast?"
Balon is a little unconvinced. Of the several staple foods that are common on the Aika Continent, glutinous rice has the shortest maturity period. It takes about three months to mature, and it needs to be planted in the right season. In general places, it is ripe once a year. Fertile and warm place, two crops a year.
According to what the other party said, deducting the research and development time, it will only take one and a half months of growth time at most, so how is that possible?
"The new seeds are naturally different from the past, with stronger vitality and adaptability, and faster growth."
Lu Chen's point is not nonsense. According to Xiao Xiannai, theoretically speaking, seeds with stronger vitality are easier to grow, and the maturity period will be much shorter.
This is the goal she cultivated, and it is also Lu Chen's expectation.
Fox pondered for a while, and said, "Your Duke, what do you mean, after the successful research of the new seed, we will allocate a batch to our orc race?"
Lu Chen nodded, "That's right, as long as you have new seeds, the first year may still be difficult for everyone, but in the spring of the next year, this kind of strong vitality seeds that are not limited to seasons can be ripened for more than a year, and everyone will never grow up again in the future." I am troubled by the problem of receiving food."
He looked at the Beast King, "All you need is a little patience and a temporary concession."
Byron sat on the seat made of the bones of the abyssal creatures, lost in thought.
He is not a completely brainless person, what the other party said is very clear, and there are even some things that the other party does not need to continue to point out.
To put it simply, as long as the orcs retreat, they can get new seeds, and there may be no food crisis on the grassland in the future.
After a full meal, and after a full meal, he can still figure it out.
But there is a very important question. He looked at Lu Chen, "How can you guarantee that you can research the new seed you mentioned during this period of time?"
The main reason is that the other party has no real objects, and everything is just empty talk.
If there are new seeds now, even if they only give them one seed, he can order to retreat.
He can still make judgments about the great cause of a thousand years, as well as the pros and cons of a moment.
As for grabbing?Although the orcs have a bandit mentality, if they rob, the human race can completely burn all the new seeds, and they will get nothing. Besides, if there is a real fight, the outcome is hard to say.
Lu Chen smiled, "I wasn't sure at first, but if you are willing to cooperate, I will be more sure."
Byron said in a low voice, "What does this mean?"
"Researching new seeds also requires some material samples from your grassland, and I hope the orcs can provide them."
Lu Chen explained that on the list given by Little Fairy Milk and the others, there are some plants and materials that are special products of the prairie.
"Are you empty gloves and us?"
Byron patted the handrail and said angrily, not only did he get nothing, he didn't give him any food, but he also wanted supplies from their prairie! ?
"King, calm down, you might as well listen to what you want first."
Fox reminded that for him personally, it doesn't matter how many people of the Beastmen die this winter, but the meaning of the new seeds is different, and it can completely stabilize the Beastmen.
Due to some special personal reasons, he also stayed in this world for a long time. The orcs with strong soldiers and horses, well-fed and well-fed, and the orcs with hunger and cold are completely two concepts.
What he wanted were stronger orcs, that would be good for his plans.
Byron snorted coldly, "Tell me about it."
Lu Chen read out a string of names: "Unyielding Grass, One Day Flower..."
When Lu Chen finished speaking, Bailong's frown relaxed.
He originally thought that he wanted some very precious orc specialty, but who knew it was just some common plants and materials on the grassland.
Unyielding Grass is a kind of wild grass that grows in the westernmost part of the grassland, in extremely cold places. It has tenacious vitality and can grow in very harsh environments. However, this grass contains toxins, and not only people can't eat it, but livestock can't eat it either.
One-day flowers are rarer, and belong to a unique scenery on the grassland.
This kind of flower bush falls into the ground to take root and germinate, and it only takes one day to bloom and wither. When it withers, the white fluffy catkins will drift with the wind and blow to a further place, and then fall into the ground again, repeating the process. process.
Therefore, in places where there are a lot of daily flowers, you can often see very gorgeous and romantic scenes. The white tidbits are flying all over the sky, and the flowers on the ground are blooming and growing again, telling the cycle of life and at the same time, it is too beautiful.
"If that's all you need, then fine."
Byron nodded. These things are worthless, and you can't eat them if you spend them a day. They have no nutritional value. They are all played by young people and children in the tribe.
He looked at Lu Chen, "I have a question, why do you want to cooperate with the orcs?"
This is what Bairon can't figure out. Plants such as unyielding grass and sunflowers are not rare, and it is not difficult for the other party to do it if they want to.
And if the new seeds can really be successfully developed through these things, in fact, there is not much difference with or without the help of their orcs.
If the human race can develop new seeds, it will be strategically ahead of all races on the mainland, because all the races except the elves are short of food.
At this level, in fact, the war waged by the orcs against the western border of the Keya Empire is not so important.
Even the human race can bear it for a while, first hand over the food, and wait for new seeds to be researched, and then make up for the victims. After this year is over, the human race will be invulnerable in the second year.
No matter how you look at it, there is no need to distribute such good things to the orcs as a condition for peace talks.
No matter how stupid King Kushra is, he should still be able to distinguish the pros and cons of this kind. No country is willing to share strategic secrets with others.
Lu Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the hanging mainland map, "We are all creatures of the Aika continent, aren't we, and now there are foreign enemies invading, we are both intelligent life, why should we kill each other?"
He stared at the border of the Great Wall on the map, "After us humans, it's the turn of the orcs to resist the abyss. As you know, I have led troops on the Great Wall for many years, and I can see things that ordinary people can't see. I don't want to resist The soldiers of the foreign enemy will be hungry by then."
Looking at the silhouette of the man in black, Byron suddenly understood.
This man did not come to negotiate with him on behalf of the king of their empire, nor did he come to negotiate with him just to save the people and soldiers in the western border of the empire. The other party wanted to save not only the human race, but also the orc race. Thousands of creatures.
Just because the man has the greatest enemy of the abyss in his heart, he thinks that the creatures in the Aika continent are all one family!
He understands the difficulty of guarding the Great Wall and the hardships of the soldiers, so he doesn't want the next round of guarding orcs to be unable to fight due to famine.
"Ha ha ha ha--"
Bairon laughed heartily, looked at Lu Chen and said, "Your new seed, I'm afraid King Khusla doesn't know about it?"
When he asked this sentence, he felt a little complacent in his heart. He felt that this was the pinnacle of his IQ today.
Lu Chen turned back and said, "You already guessed it, didn't you?"
Byron said with a smile: "You idiot of the Keya Empire, if I knew about the new seed, where would I see you today?"
This is easy to understand. If King Kushra knew the new seeds, he would definitely hand over the food directly. After the temporary turmoil, the birth of the new seeds in the coming year will definitely make him an emperor through the ages, and the Keya Empire will also Become the strongest continental force.
With King Kushra's magnanimity, he would never think of cooperating with the orcs and considering the long-term safety of the mainland.
Lu Chen took out two more jugs of wine, each with 50 origin coins, and threw them to Bailong, saying with a smile, "Actually, I still have one more condition."
The smile on Byron's face disappeared, and the wine in his hand did not move, "Although we want new seeds, you can't make progress."
Lu Chen shook his head, "This condition doesn't represent the empire, it only represents me personally, and it's not too much."
"You said."
Byron felt more and more that the man in front of him was interesting.
"If one day the abyss really invades on a large scale and the human race can't support it alone, for the survival of the Aika continent, I hope you can lead the orc army and fight with me."
Lu Chen looked at the Beast King sincerely.
Byron patted open the wine seal, "Isn't that too much? The 500-year covenant is unbreakable. You are asking our orcs to do extra work."
Bailong touched the wine jar with Lu Chen who was walking in front of him, drank the wine, took a long breath, and grinned: "But... I agree."
This bold and unrestrained man from the Lion King family wiped his mouth, "I understand the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. It's not for the tribe, and I don't want to fight this kind of battle. It's not fun at all, and I feel aggrieved when I fight."
Lu Chen was speechless, just drank the wine in the altar, "Then..."
But at this time, Bailong raised his hand and interrupted Lu Chen, "Wait a minute, you have a lot of conditions, and I also have one condition, which also only represents an individual."
"king."
Fox wanted to speak out to remind him, but was blocked by the orc king's majestic eyes.
Lu Chen said calmly: "You say."
Byron grinned, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth. His mane stood tall all over his body, and his golden eyes reflected fire, "Fight this king."
He had fought invincible opponents from all the tribes on the grassland, and he was already too idle to panic.
And the man in front of him killed the guardian dragon, and that was only 20 years ago, and now 20 years have passed, with the growth of human fighting spirit, I'm afraid it has gone a step further?
What an...exciting opponent.
Lu Chen also smiled, looking at this majestic orc man, "I am willing to accompany you."
In the 16033 year of the Aika Continental Calendar, on October 10, outside the Sunset Pass, the land was shaking and the sky was shaking, and the thunder continued.
On that day, the sunset guards and the orcs knew what the pinnacle of the mainland was!
The moon and stars were sparse, and the center of the deep basin was filled with smoke and dust. A man in a pitch-black cloak had dragon scales on his face, wings on his back, and a bloodthirsty knife in his hand.
The golden mane of the figure on the other side fluttered in the wind, the majestic muscles in front of his chest undulated, and the battle ax in his hand gleamed fiercely.
"Hahahaha - I'm happy, I'm really happy, this is the first time in my life, the feeling of going all out is really intoxicating."
Byron laughed heartily, more heartily than drinking the strongest wine.
"Maybe it's been a long time since I have had such a discussion, you are very strong."
Lu Chen smiled, and the black scales on his face gradually receded.
It's not a fight to the death, it's evenly matched.
Beast King Bailong is worthy of being the strongest in the mainland.
It is Lu Chen's favorite in this life to fight against powerful enemies of humanoid creatures.
Bailong was intoxicated by it, but he was actually more carefree, even ignoring the fall of Shouyuan, and started the fourth violent blood.
"Godzilla, don't use that polite title, just call me Byron."
The Beast King put away his giant axe and said with a smile that he fully agreed with the man in front of him.
He raised his head and shouted to his subordinates outside the basin: "Prepare the banquet, serve the wine, I will not return home today without getting drunk with Godzilla!"
In the bonfire soaring into the sky, the orcs slaughtered the accompanying livestock, and a wild and rough banquet unfolded.
Lu Chen and the Beastman King sat in high positions, chomped down on meat, clinked glasses with the giant bowls of the Beastman tribe, poured bad wine into their throats, and felt the purest enthusiasm.
The Beast King Byron was very happy today. Although there was a shortage of food, he didn't have the courage to do so.
And with his prestige, no orc would dare to object to such a banquet for receiving guests.
After drinking for three rounds, the Beastman King was still not drunk after all, because he was out of wine, he looked at Lu Chen with some regret, "I hope we will see you next time, and we can really get drunk."
