Chapter 702: The Unexpected Appearance of Mercenaries

Chapter 711: Unexpected Mercenaries

Although they experienced the episode of wandering orcs, Kaslo and Cardo didn't take it seriously. Kaslo didn't even have the desire to attack the low-level cannon fodder unless it was necessary. Cardo was quite warlike and didn't like orcs and dwarves. After all, one scattered black arrows all over Middle-earth, and the other shot himself with black arrows. Fortunately, Raglan and Ilubo belonged to the allies, otherwise Cardo would have turned into the second Smaug to give the dwarves two nests!

"We are saying that if you keep looking like this, you may not be able to find a suitable place to rest tomorrow..." A nagging voice came from Kaslo's shoulder. Cardo was speechless facing Kaslo who was like a headless fly. Obviously, the biggest advantage of being a dragon knight is vision, but he had to be a mud leg and wander around on the ground.

"Let's go, let's go to the sky and take a look. The village that the group of orcs just mentioned should not be far away!" Cardo's figure suddenly doubled, and his saddle appeared in the void.

"Tsk! When I have money in the future, I will definitely make you a set of dragon armor! With dragon armor, we don't have to be afraid of black arrows anymore!" Kaslo smacked his lips as he looked at Cardo's bare body. It was obvious that the storm dragon at this moment was not perfect enough. After all, the complete dragon knight was even wearing heavy armor! The solid dragon scales and heavy dragon armor directly made the dragon knight top the disgusting list! If you are lucky enough to meet a dragon knight wearing dragon armor with the thorn anti-armor skill, it would be even more fun. The anti-armor dragon shield plus refraction, hitting me is equivalent to hitting yourself!

"Wait until you have money! The price of a set of dragon armor is enough to bankrupt King Roland!" Cardo said casually. The current kingdom can't even get the materials for dragon armor together. Kaslo's wish is destined to be far away!

As the pinnacle masterpiece of the empire! Each piece of dragon armor is an epic equipment, and as a soul-bound equipment, the birth of each set of dragon armor is full of financial resources! It can be said that without huge financial support, even a kingdom with top wise men like Yun Feng cannot make dragon armor. It can be said that dragon armor is a microcosm of the empire! Only the most powerful countries can unite the national alchemist association and blacksmith union to gather materials from all over the world to build dragon armor, and the current Kingdom of Lagrande obviously does not have this ability.

As a dragon knight, it is inevitable to desire dragon armor. During the imperial period, the state was responsible for customizing dragon armor for free. In return, the dragon knight needed to accept the commander of the empire and be loyal to the emperor! Strictly speaking, only the combination of a dragon wearing dragon armor and a knight wearing dragon armor is a real dragon knight. Unfortunately, the kingdom is now full of wild naked dragon riders, and the environment of Middle-earth is touching. A dragon knight can give on the battlefield! So the gap does not seem obvious without the blessing of dragon armor.

However, the lack of dragon armor still has a great impact on the dragon knights of the kingdom. For example, when facing the dragon hunting crossbow and black arrows, the dragon knights of the kingdom can only look away and dare not approach. The body of Smaug, who set an example, is still warm! The dragons said they didn't want to test whether the dragons were more resistant than the mutated giant flying dragons... And it was the personal testimony of Cardo and Kaslo, this was probably the first dragon rider in Middle-earth that was closest to being shot down in the past thousand years!

"That's right!" Kaslo thought about the dragon armor and then didn't dare to think about it. You know, the expensive mithril and fine gold are only the most basic materials in it, you can imagine how expensive other materials are! Not to mention saving money for eight lifetimes, even if Roland gets a set, he will have to spend money on it!

"Let's go, find a place to sleep first!" Cardo urged. He could use the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed. After all, the dragon's strong physique made their adaptability the strongest in Middle-earth, but humans were different. These things would burn their masters to death if they got a little rain, so Cardo would naturally not let his knights sleep in the open.

"Huh!" The huge wings of the dragon spread out and flapped vigorously, and the whole dragon flew up briskly. The airflow during the flight made basically no sound, which could be called silent flight! It is difficult for other dragons not to make a sound, but for dragons like Storm Dragon, which is mainly responsible for wind elements, airflow is as easy as a finger!

Just like this, one man and one dragon floated in the air like the breeze, carefully looking at everything below, trying to find the human settlement mentioned by the orcs.

"I saw it! My knight, I will take you down! You can sleep on a warm bed tonight!" Cardo laughed, and the voice sounded in Kaslo's heart.

"Thank you for your trouble! Remember to hide!" Kaslo patted Cardo on the back to indicate that he could land.

...

"Is this the village mentioned by the orcs? It's really not big!" Kaslo looked at the village in front of him with interest. After careful observation, he found that the outer wall of this village was built with logs and rammed earth. In this wasteland, as long as they did not encounter the regular orc army, the human militia with hunting bows and dung forks as weapons could easily protect the village! But that second-level Orc warrior was a problem. If there were no professionals in that team of Orcs, even if Kaslo didn't take action, those Orcs would have been beaten to a pulp under the city wall!

"Stop? Who are you?" Soon someone discovered Kaslo's spying. In an instant, several heads popped up on the city wall and pointed their bows and arrows at Kaslo. However, the hostility in their eyes disappeared a lot after they saw Kaslo's luxurious plate armor!

"I'm a wandering knight passing by. I've been traveling in the North! I just happened to pass by your place and wanted to go in to rest and replenish supplies!" Kaslo pretended to be a wandering knight.

"Wandering knight? Where's your horse? Why don't knights have war horses?" The people above looked at each other and shouted to Kaslo.

"Interesting! Not militia?" Before Kaslo could speak, Cardo's voice rang out. After sharing the vision with Kaslo, he obviously found the problem with the uniforms of the garrison above. There was no other reason, it was too formal! The formality was not like the militia in the village at all!

"Mercenaries!" Kaslo saw the origin of the people above at a glance. These neatly dressed, fully equipped but laxly disciplined groups were mercenaries at a glance!

"Interesting! It's getting more and more interesting!" Kaslo became interested. A migrating village in the wilderness could actually hire a mercenary team? This greatly aroused Kaslo's curiosity. Although Cardo didn't say it, his serious eyes had betrayed him. Everyone is curious, but obviously this pair of combinations is more curious.
