Suhlen stood at the front of the group and saw a dozen tall centaurs charging over. At first, Suhlen thought they were here to trade, but after a while, he realized that they didn't seem to be slowing down at all.
Although there were only a few Centaurs, when they charged, they had the aura of an army of thousands of men and horses.
"Boss, something's wrong." Johnson's face changed as he came over and said.
"Looks like these centaurs have other ideas." Suhlen sneered.
"Hey, do they think they can do it?" Johnson spat in disdain and said eagerly, "Boss, why don't we just deal with them directly?"
"They didn't all come. They probably want to test our strength. If we're strong enough, they'll pretend nothing happened. If we're not strong enough, these centaurs will swarm us." Suhlen's tone was relaxed as he waved his hand. The war spirits behind him immediately stepped forward.
Fifteen spearmen stood in a row, their sharp spears pointed upwards. The other fifteen archers also stood in a row, their arrows stuck half a meter in front of them. Then, one by one, they nocked the arrows on their bows.
"One hundred and twenty steps."
"Prepare to shoot three arrows!"
"Shoot!"
"Bang!"
With Su Lun's order, the fifteen archers instantly released the bowstrings, and fifteen sharp arrows flew out in an instant. Then these archers did not stop at all. Their hands were like phantoms as they shot three arrows in succession. The three consecutive waves of arrows crossed the distance of 120 steps in an instant and then nailed into the ground.
Kanter led the 50 centaurs and charged towards the caravan. Very quickly, two groups of soldiers came out from the caravan. Looking at the thin formation of the soldiers, Kanter couldn't help but sneer. Such a thin formation wanted to stop the charge of the centaurs?
But when he looked up, he saw a row of arrows flying at him. Kanter's face changed. He leaned back and his hooves rubbed against the ground. As soon as he stopped, there were three rows of arrows in front of him. The closest one was less than half a meter away from him. Looking at the arrows that were half buried in the ground, Kanter felt cold sweat.
This level of accuracy and strength was not inferior to the archers in their clan. Moreover, their discipline was even better. Kanter hesitated for a moment and decided to give up on probing the enemy's strength.
It was clear that although there weren't many humans, they weren't characters that could be easily manipulated. Kanter did not continue to charge. He slowed down and continued to move forward, bypassing the arrows.
It didn't take long for Kanter to arrive in front of the human convoy. After what he had just experienced, he no longer dared to underestimate these humans. When he got closer, he discovered that there was a group of barbarian warriors armed to the teeth.
After seeing these barbarians clearly, Kanter was secretly shocked. Although these barbarians looked carefree, the aura of their leader was something he had only felt from the Grand Patriarch. No, it seemed to be even stronger than the Grand Patriarch's aura.
But how was this possible? How could such powerful barbarian warriors be under the command of such an ordinary-looking human lord?
While Kanter was still thinking, Su Lun asked, "Are you the one in charge of the Centaur Tribe's trade?"
"I am Kanter. I am responsible for inspecting the goods. Hunter is in charge of the trade. As long as the goods are up to standard, we can proceed with the trade." Kanter looked at the shining armor with a burning passion.
Suhlen looked at the centaur and said to Johnson, "Of course you can inspect the goods. But you can't just look at ours. Johnson, take a group and see if their goods are up to standard."
"Understood, boss!" Johnson grinned at Kanter and called a dozen barbarians over to the centaurs not far away.
The trade went smoothly. Suhlen simply showed off his muscles to let the centaurs know how strong he was, and they obediently carried out the trade. In addition to three hundred horses, a hundred longbows, three hundred pounds of gold, and two hundred orc slaves.
These orcs looked ugly. They had gray skin and coarse hair. They had hunched backs, low foreheads, and faces that looked like pig faces. Their lower canine teeth were protruding like elephant tusks. These orcs were about 1.8 meters tall. Their clothes were tattered, and there were many crisscrossing whip marks on their skin.
As for the cat-eared girls that Suhlen wanted, they had nothing to do with the orcs. He also learned from Hathaway that the cat-eared girls were actually Werecreatures. It was said that these Werecreatures came from some dark human experiments during the Arcane Empire in the last era.
When the Arcane Empire was destroyed, the Werecreatures were freed. In the beginning, the bloodline of the Werecreatures was not very stable. There were often occurrences of atavism or collapse. It was not until many generations later that the Werecreatures were formed.
The Werecreatures had a strong talent in some aspects, but they also had obvious shortcomings in some areas. In fact, the Werecreatures were just a kind of failed product of the arcanists of the Arcane Empire. However, after thousands of years of reproduction, the bloodline of the Werecreatures had stabilized.
The wizards of this world had actually obtained part of the knowledge of the Arcane Kingdom. It was said that the legendary and incomparably glorious Arcane Kingdom was not the original inhabitants of this world, but a group of outsiders. They were conquerors from other worlds, and the original human heroes of this world were probably the servants of those conquerors.
This was also the reason why the human heroes at the end of the last era were so powerful. Of course, the nobles scoffed at such a theory and sealed it off completely. All of the books were destroyed and burned, and only the Magi who had been around for a long time left behind some incomplete information.
The nobles claimed that the human heroes were inspired by the gods or blessed by the ancient elves. Then, they became heroes. It was also the gods who asked them to lead humans from darkness to civilization.
In Suhlen's view, the wizards' statement was actually more credible. Of course, the nobles would be stupid if they admitted it. It was like throwing their noble aura directly into a cesspool and then stepping on it. As a noble, Suhlen had vested interests. Even he would make the same choice as the nobles.
Suhlen looked at the Werecreatures. These Werecreatures looked at the centaurs and humans with hatred, but he did not care. Northguard Castle had enough strength to suppress them.
