The next day, early in the morning.
The sun was shining through the window into the house and on Edie's face.
Maybe the light and heat brought by the sun made Edie feel uncomfortable. He opened his eyes vaguely.
Suddenly, Edie remembered that he was in a ogre's house. He was surprised. He sat up and looked aside. He saw Milne in his sleep. He was relieved.
Perhaps sensing the movement around him, Milne turns over, purrs something in his mouth and goes to sleep again.
The merchant didn't adapt to the life at sea and didn't have a good rest on board for several days.
Seeing that Milne was sleeping soundly, Edie couldn't bear to wake him up. He got out of bed quietly and took his double swords.
Edie didn't undress all night and was still holding his own weapon, but it turned out that he thought too much.
Standing on the cold slate, a sense of coolness rushes from the sole of the foot to the top of the head. Edie quickly finds his shoes, puts on his shoes, and arranges his clothes. Edie observes the room where he has stayed all night.
The ogre's room is better than Edie's imagination, not to say how luxurious it is, but there are no messy bones, and the smell is not very serious.
The latter point is really valuable for an ogre.
Edie was surprised to hear a strange whir coming from the yard.
He went to the door. First, he held the bell tongue, took down the bell hanging behind the door, put it away, then took off the bolt, opened the five meter high door and walked into the lobby.
Edie observes the furnishings in the lobby. There are no unnecessary ornaments in the lobby. The furnishings are rough, simple and easy to use. They are surrounded by a few logs. They look like tables and chairs of ogres. Edie goes forward to take a picture.
make love!
Solid!
Edie rolled his eyes. It was estimated that Milne was in the ogre's house. It would be hard to move a chair.
The door was open, and Edie went straight out. At a glance, hawk, the topless ogre, was throwing two big stones in the yard.
Two big stones are like toys in the hands of ogres. They are thrown higher than the roof by them. When they fall, they are firmly caught by the big hands of their two grinding plates.
Edie saw that hawk's body was full of sweat, and his hot body was white in the cold winter morning.
It seems that Hawk has been practicing throwing stones for a while.
Throwing stones is one of the common ways for nordhill soldiers to practice. The specific method is to stand in place with both feet apart, throw heavy stones into the air, then squat down until the fingertips of both hands touch the ground, and immediately stand up to catch the falling stones and continue to throw them.
This method is simple, common materials, and can effectively exercise strength and endurance. Throwing two hands together can also exercise one mind, two uses and control of one's own strength. Therefore, the stone throwing exercise method is very popular, and Yidi, who holds a sword in both hands, often practices it.
Edie looks at the other stones on the side of the yard and shakes his head. Although there are small stones among them, the small one is for the ogre, for Edie, a human being.
Well, forget it.
Hawke didn't mind the onlookers and continued to focus on his practice.
At first, Edie looked relaxed and didn't care, then her eyes became more and more serious, and finally she became shocked.
Because he found that as like as two peas were thrown up, the two stones were always rising vertically, and the height of the stones was exactly the same. Even two stones were not far away from the arc.
This requires a great deal of control over his own strength, and Edie asks himself that he can't.
In other words, hawk, the ogre, is better than Edie, a real aristocrat who has received special training in power control.
Edie rolled his throat and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
If this is a common phenomenon, then the power of the overseas islands is terrible!
Edie recalled the ogre message.
In the overseas islands, the powerful race of Ogres is under the direct control of Baibao. Every ogre cub will receive compulsory education, including basic knowledge such as writing and professional education.
This kind of education will last until the ogre comes of age. When the ogre comes of age, he will join the army of Baibao for a certain period of time. After the end of the compulsory military service, the ogre will be free to choose whether to stay in the army or to live an ordinary life with retirement money.
Edie thought for a moment and thought that it was a common phenomenon.
After all, the education in Baibao is so excellent that even a large number of lower races such as the fishman can realize the full coverage of lower education. There is no reason that powerful monsters such as ogres can not get better education.
After hawk's exercise, Edie can't wait to step forward.
"Mr. hawk, you are really powerful, and I admire your mastery of power. Excellent soldiers like you must be the most powerful ogres!"
"Ha ha ha, of course."
Edie was half honest and half flattering, which made hawk feel a little flattered. He twisted his thick neck, swung his arms, and shook the sweat off his hands.
Then, Edie and the ogre talked about it, and kept on saying, from the ogre's mouth to confirm his conjecture.
Although Hawk is stronger than Edie in strength, he can't compare with this shrewd aristocrat in mind. He was coaxed around by Edie, and soon became brother to Edie, revealing some unimportant information.
But the information was enough to surprise Edie.
Ogre Hawk is a level 6 warrior. With the addition of the biological level, Hawk is equivalent to the advanced warrior of human beings.
It was born in the split bone clan, which is just a small clan that can't rank among the cannibals. Hawk is only at the middle level among the same age of the split bone clan, and I'm afraid he is still weak among other powerful clans.
This exercise of throwing stones is the basic skill of Ogre basic education. Hawk has a little talent in power control, which is better than most of his peers in the split bone clan.
Like ordinary ogres, Hawke has experienced special training in his childhood and served in the army for many years. However, when faced with the choice, unlike most ogres, Hawke chose to leave the army and bought a house in the newly established Xuetao city with retirement payment and accumulated salary.
By the way, there is a discount for the retired Hawke to buy the official first suite.
In this way, hawk settled down in Xuetao City, and found a job in the city hall - city guard, but also a team leader.
Edie and the ogre are chatting, and suddenly hawk frowns.
"Broken teeth, you sneak into my house again and come out. I can smell you."
In Edie's surprised eyes, a coyote with a cheap smile came out of the shadow of the corner and spoke in an exaggerated tone.
"Oh! What do I see?! Our captain Hawk is talking to a human
With that, the Jackal threw a piece of dried fish into his mouth. Edie saw that there was a broken tooth in the Jackal's mouth.
When hawk saw that jackal's hands were filled with the familiar shells of little fish, he suddenly became angry, picked up the stones on the ground and threw them away.
"Broken teeth! You big jerk! Steal my food again
At the same time, Edie heard the panic in the room, and it seemed that Milne was awake.
The Jackal wriggled to avoid the stone, which hit the ground. As he walked towards them, the Jackal laughed more cheaply.
"Oh, don't be so mean. I'll buy you a drink at night."
Although the ogre is still very angry, but the thing has been in the hands of the jackal, it has no way, no longer care about this cheap jackal, to one side of Edie.
"This is my colleague, Sark the jackal, and the captain of the city guard, nicknamed broken teeth. He's a terrible bastard."
Edie agrees with hawk's evaluation of jackal, but he certainly does not naively think that the relationship between them is very bad. In fact, they should be good friends, otherwise they would not dare to steal the mermaid's dried fish.
Approaching, the Jackal handed over the shell containing the dried fish.
"Would you like some? This is the dried cuttlefish produced by the famous tidal Fishman clan, but it's a good product that can't be bought in the market. "
The Jackal's face showed a triumphant smile, and he was obviously very proud of finding the food that his good friend treasured.
The ogre snatched the shell, and the Jackal continued to grab the cuttlefish and put it into his mouth.
At the beholder's command, Edie also picked up a dried fish and put it into his mouth.
Eddie's eyes widened when he came to see why the Jackal was willing to invite the ogre to drink in exchange for this small box of cuttlefish. You know, hawk's drinking capacity is terrible.
The dried cuttlefish is crispy, with an intoxicating ocean flavor and a peculiar flavor of spices. It should be added with the spice of overseas islands, which is more precious than gold. The taste is excellent, worthy of jackal's praise.
On the other side, the ogre's thunderous roar wakes the sleeping businessman, and Milne rushes out of the house.
However, he was surprised to find that his good friend was sharing the dried fish with the ogre hawk and a strange jackal, and he couldn't understand what happened.
The ogre beckoned to Milne.
The four shared the cuttlefish and dried fish. After chatting for a while, while the ogre was happy, Edie offered to pay for the room for a few days. With a big wave of his hand, Hawke avoided the two men's room money and then gave Edie a large key.
Although Hawk is not very smart, he is not stupid. The two alien humans are obviously different from ordinary people in their conversation. Moreover, Edie, who is also a soldier, is very interested in him, so he is willing to make friends with them.
As for worrying about the money in the house, think about what hawk does.
City guard! Or the captain!
In addition to patrolling and guarding the city gate, the city guards are also responsible for public security, which is equivalent to the complex of the city management and the police. They also have great power. I'm afraid the only one who dares to steal in his house is the humble jackal Duanchi.
The ogre gave the Jackal a sidelong look.
Then, hawk, carrying a terrible mace, and the Jackal said goodbye to them and went to work.
After the ogre left, the two chatted in the yard, and the merchant Milne was obviously discerning.
"Tut Tut, Edie, I can't see that you still have this skill. Tell me how you have a good relationship with this ogre, and share such precious cuttlefish jerky."
Edie chose to remain mysterious.
"It's a friendship between soldiers. You cunning guy will never understand it."
After a short time together, Edie is also very fond of hawk, the straightforward ogre.
Milne looked at the expression of his companion, feeling desolate in his heart. A human nobleman and an ogre had a friendship.
Later, they talked about their plans for the future. Finally, they found that their amount of information was still too little, so they planned to continue to collect information. They went out of the door.
People are iron and rice is steel. They plan to keep busy after dinner.
They walk on the streets of Xuetao City, perhaps because the owner of the overseas islands is white dragon. The monsters of the overseas islands prefer white. The houses in the whole city are either built with white stones or painted with a layer of white paint. With the snow on the houses that has not yet melted, the whole world is white.
Hawk's house is located in a special residential area of large creatures. There are not many large creatures, and there are no breakfast vendors in this area. They go to the wolf and wine tavern in their memory. The tavern usually has food.
They passed by a cleaning dog headed man, whose thick coat was covered with a strange yellow vest. Along the way, every cleaning man was wearing a yellow vest.
It seems that the yellow vest is the symbol of the cleaning staff, so they thought.
In the white environment, the filthy environment is particularly conspicuous, and the filthy environment is obviously the city managers do not want to see, so Xuetao city has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in cleaning.
They met a troll with a huge Trailer. The trailer was smelling. They saw the cleaner in yellow vest dumping the garbage into the trailer. They understood that this was the way to clean up the garbage in Xuetao city.
In the strange eyes of passers-by, two human beings walk out of the large biological residential area and see that there are some vendors on the side of the road buying all kinds of snacks.
There are steamed buns and stewed meat. Of course, the most popular seafood are squid, mud turtle and kelp.
Looking at the colorful breakfast, they couldn't help sighing.
"What a rich breakfast in Xuetao city!"
Now that there are all kinds of peddlers, there is no need for them to go to the wolf and wine bar. They immediately went shopping.
……
In the next few days, they boarded in the ogre's house and made friends from all walks of life in Xuetao city. After asking for enough information, they finally had a clear direction.
They bid farewell to their first and best friend in Xuetao City, the ogre hawk, and began their plan.
Half a month later, a big news came to both of them that the overseas islands will be established in the spring. People from all walks of life are welcome to visit the city.
Name of the country - Yafei Aiwei!
