"Your Majesty! We've researched Taming! "Just as Zhao Fu gave the order, Bai Shan ran over with a look of delight on his face.
Hearing this, a look of delight appeared on Zhao Fu's face. After researching for so long, they had finally made some progress. He nodded and went to the Taming Room. A few Scholars were standing there, and there was a stone stele next to them.
Seeing Zhao Fu come in, the Scholars respectfully retreated to the side. Zhao Fu walked up and placed his hand on the stone stele, and he received a set of information.
[Tamer]: F + grade Military, Description: After changing professions, one obtains the ability to tame wild beasts, Effect: Receives skill [Taming].
Seeing this, Zhao Fu changed professions to two Tamers and ordered people to capture wild chickens and ducks, which could be used as livestock.
Right now, Qin Village was severely lacking in manpower, and they had to do this and that, so they could only add a large number of Goblins to make up for the lack of manpower. As for exploring the large crack, they would have to wait until the staircase was repaired.
After coming to the west of Qin Village, Zhao Fu went in to take a look, and the Gnomes all respectfully lowered their heads and retreated to the side. Zhao Fu found five Mechanics Scholars and had them start to research ballistae.
After returning to the village, Bai Shan came to greet him and asked, "Your Majesty! What do you want us to research next? "
Hearing this, Zhao Fu had almost forgotten that now that they had successfully researched Taming, the Scholars were quite free. There were simply too many things to do, and Zhao Fu felt quite troubled. However, Zhao Fu still thought about what to research next. After a while, he said to Bai Shan, "You can start researching teleportation channels!"
Teleportation channels were a must, and if Qin Village could successfully research teleportation channels, it would be much more convenient to travel between villages in the future. At the same time, Zhao Fu wanted to go to a system main city to have a look. Right now, he had nowhere to spend his money, so he wanted to see what he could buy.
After hearing Zhao Fu's words, Bai Shan took his people to research.
At this time, someone came forward to report that a human village was found five miles away from the north of Qin Village.
Zhao Fu immediately brought some people to investigate. First, they had to determine whether this was a bandit village or an ordinary village. However, no matter what it was, Zhao Fu wanted to rob people. Right now, the village's respawn rate was too slow, and Qin Village was severely lacking in people.
An hour or so later, they arrived at the human village that the soldier had mentioned. Zhao Fu carefully observed the village from a high vantage point and thought to himself, "A human village really can't compare to an Outlander village."
In terms of defense, the village was surrounded by thick wooden planks, and there were guards patrolling the surroundings. If an enemy attacked, they would sound the alarm, and the defenses were quite tight. However, living in a village in the wilderness was filled with danger at all times, so they had to focus on defense.
There were roughly 400 or so people in the village: 60 or so elderly and children, 160 or so women, and 200 or so men. It didn't look like a bandit village and instead looked like an ordinary village. The village's patrols all had leather armor and iron sabers, and they looked even wealthier than Qin Village. Qin Village used Iron Wood to make weapons, and they only had 10 or so pieces of leather armor.
Most of the soldiers were Militia, but there were a few who held Bows, Arrows, and Shields. These people hadn't changed professions yet. Archers, Shieldbearers, and Cavalrymen could only be unlocked by researching them beforehand or by raising the Village's level. Intermediate Villages could unlock Shieldbearers, Advanced Villages could unlock Archers, and only Towns could unlock Cavalrymen.
Right now, the people in the village who had bows and shields had to rely on themselves. They didn't have any profession bonuses or skills, and they were half as strong as people who had changed professions.
If they could take down this village, they would be able to instantly fill the gap in Qin Village's population. However, if Zhao Fu led his people and charged in, they would have to face solid defenses and double the number of enemies. They would definitely lose a large number of soldiers, and they would be forced to retreat.
It seemed that fighting wouldn't work, so Zhao Fu turned to the others and said, "You all hide here for now; I'll go negotiate with Bai Qi!"
…
Zhao Fu and Bai Qi arrived at the village's entrance, and the people at the entrance immediately shouted, "Who are you?"
Bai Qi was about to speak, but Zhao Fu signaled for him to stop and said, "I'm the Village Chief of the nearby Qin Village. I've come to visit your village, and I'd like to trouble your Village Chief to meet me."
Someone immediately went to report Zhao Fu's words. Following this, the doors opened, and a fair-skinned young man walked out with some people. He smiled at Zhao Fu and cupped his hands as he said, "My father requests the pleasure of seeing you!"
Zhao Fu returned the greeting before following the fair-skinned young man to a room. After entering, they saw a white-bearded elder sitting at the head of the room. When he saw Zhao Fu and Bai Qi, he stood up and smiled as he gestured for them to sit down, and a maidservant immediately brought them tea.
"I never thought that our village would welcome two esteemed guests. Please forgive us, "the elder said apologetically.
Zhao Fu calmly smiled as he replied, "Village Chief, you're too polite! Our village only moved here a few days ago, and we've only just discovered your village. It's a bit late for us to pay you a visit, so please forgive us. "
The elder felt quite surprised. "This old man was wondering why a village had appeared nearby. So it turns out they only moved here a few days ago. However, there are dangers everywhere in the wilderness, and it's difficult to find a safe place."
Hearing this, Zhao Fu nodded and prepared to say something.
At that moment, a young man walked in with a serious expression and reported, "Village Chief! The Wild Wolf Village's people have come to ask for food again. "
The elder's expression became serious, and he said his goodbyes before leaving with his people.
"Your Majesty!"
Bai Qi turned to look at Zhao Fu as he called out.
Zhao Fu nodded, and the two of them followed after him. Soon, they saw ten or so savage-looking people standing at the entrance of the village. One of them, a dark-skinned and somewhat ugly man, called out, "Damned old man, hurry up and hand over the food!"
When the fair-skinned young man heard this, he became furious and wanted to say something, but the elder stopped him and said, "Bring out the food and give it to them!"
The villagers followed the elder's orders and brought out ten or so bags of food and placed them at the entrance of the village.
Seeing so many bags of food, the leader gave a pleased smile and said to the elder, "Damned old man, you're quite tactful."
After saying this, the leader ordered the others to carry the bags of food and left.
Seeing them leave, the fair-skinned young man angrily harrumphed. Zhao Fu went up and asked what was going on.
He found out that this village was called the Li Family Village, and the Village Chief was called Li Youcai. His son, the fair-skinned young man, was called Li Wen.
The Wild Wolf Village was a bandit village eight kilometers away from the Li Family Village, and it had 300 or so people. However, there were no women, elderly, or children in a bandit village, so most of the 300 or so people were men. Moreover, all of them had professions such as bandits, bandits, or robbers, and their battle strength was quite high.
