Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"Yeah!" Su Mi blinked her big eyes and nodded obediently, "Okay!"

"call……"

Wei Ya breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the more than 30 orc children around her, with a bit of relief on the corner of her mouth. Fortunately, she arrived in time, otherwise it would be really hard to imagine the scene of everyone being captured as slaves.

For those elders who abandoned the tribe, Wei Ya didn't care at all. Those people had disappointed her, and it was too much to abandon the children.

"Weiya, do you really think that nobles will take us in? We are orcs!"

Mary led the two little orcs over, and asked worriedly, "Don't be fooled by the human race, they came to capture us as slaves four days ago."

"It's true, your lord is different from other human races." Wei Ya enlightened again, "My lord promises that as long as you work for your lord, you can support yourself."

In the past four days, the surviving big orcs have come to ask her such questions many times, and Wei Ya will answer them very seriously.

"However, we have so many children, and no noble will support us for nothing. It's hard for us old people to afford it." Mary expressed her worry.

"This..." Wei Ya was at a loss for words, that's right, so many orc children, do adults have to pay coins to raise them?

This is too unfair to adults, no, what am I thinking? Can I keep it?

"Grandma Mary, don't worry, I'll take care of everyone, I have a job, and I have a salary of one silver coin a month." Wei Ya had a confident smile on her face.

"Oh! I hope it's true! Don't just escape from the wolf's mouth and then send it to the tiger's mouth!" Mary frowned. How could this be possible with a salary of one silver coin a month? Which nobleman has such arrogance?

It's no wonder that Mary was worried. After she came out of the orc kingdom, she had seen too many frauds and hypocrisy. If Mary wasn't an old orc, she might have been captured and taken as a slave long ago.

Mary is sixty-five years old, with white hair, a pair of small goat horns protruding from the white hair, and a stooped back. She has been taking care of orc orphans in the tribe.

"No, I've tried it, and I've been a teacher there, teaching the children of the human race." Wei Ya promised quickly.

"Weiya, you are a kind child, but..." Mary was at a loss for words, and it was useless for her to continue.

They have no way out, and if they stay in the tribe, they will starve to death, or they will be discovered again by slave traders, and then they will be taken away as slaves. Not every time a wolf orc comes to rescue them.

Mary just hoped that the nobleman Wei Ya mentioned would not go too far. Maybe he would be sold as a slave, at least he would not starve to death, right?

She didn't know why she had this idea, maybe it was because the thirty-three orc children put too much pressure on her, so she actually had the idea that being a slave could survive.

"..." Wei Ya didn't know what to say. She was hurt by a slave trader a few days ago. She had the same mentality as when she escaped from the slave trader. She didn't believe in the human race at all. Gentle Miss Nicole...

Maybe, she still doesn't believe in the human race now, no, at that time, she might be trying to escape from the castle, and there will be no subsequent stories.

"Weiya, we'll be here in one day, right?" Mary paid attention to the children around her, so she didn't accidentally fall behind.

"Yeah! One more day." Wei Ya nodded affirmatively.

Wei Ya glanced around at the orc children, because she had to take care of them, so she couldn't move forward fast, especially when she had to find food for the children, it slowed down her progress.

But none of the orc children complained of suffering. In the past four days, everyone walked obediently, and they didn't complain that they were tired or wanted to take a rest.

Tempering makes people mature early and speeds up their growth. This may be one of the reasons why orcs are stronger than humans.

Of course, all of this is inseparable from Mina. If Mina hadn't opened the way ahead and hunted wild animals, they would have been too hungry to walk.

"Weiya, let me discuss with you." Mary whispered, "If I arrive, I will take a few children to the city to check the situation. If I don't come back, you will take the children far away .”

This is the only way Mary can think of in the past four days. Only by trying it out can she know the truth. If the nobleman sees her as an old orc of the sheep race, he will definitely dislike her and drive her away, then it means that Wei Ya has been tricked .

"..." Wei Ya was confused, what kind of operation is this? How could she agree? If you let adults know, do you think she doesn't trust adults?

Before Wei Ya answered...

"Crack! Crack! Crack!!!"

Suddenly, there were many broken dead branches around, and the sound of dry grass sounded, which made Wei Ya, Mary and other orcs nervous.

"Could it be a slave trader again?" Mary was nervous, she quickly pushed Wei Ya, and shouted eagerly, "Wei Ya, you have to leave quickly, or those beasts will..."

"Hee hee hee..." Wei Ya laughed out loud, raising her hand and shouting, "Mina, are you back?"

The people who appeared around were none other than Niu Da leading the Longbow Team, and met Mina who was exploring the way ahead.

"Well! The young master sent someone to pick us up."

Mina's brows were a little tired. She had been busy for the past four days, and she had to guard the bonfire at night, drive away wild animals, and so on.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't help much." Wei Ya quickly took out a few wild fruits from her backpack and gave them to Mina, which is a kind of wild fruit with a lot of water.

"You don't need to eat this, Mr. Niu Da is here with food." The corners of Mina's mouth rose.

The feeling of being cared for - it's great, she has a few bags of fried fish sent by the young master in her backpack.

And that fizzy drink—Coke, Mina's happy now.

"That's great!"

Wei Ya became excited, grabbed Mary and shouted, "My lord sent someone to pick us up, and brought food."

"..." Mary tilted her head, what's going on? Not a slave trader?

Chapter 0185 military canned meat.

The 20-member longbow squad, each carrying a hemp cloth backpack and holding a recurve bow, all looked curiously at the little beast girls and the little beast masters.

"Miss Mina, are you still on your way? Do you want to take a break?" Niu Da turned his head and asked.

He had received the order last night, and this morning, just after dawn, he led the team to set off. Following the sign left by Miss Mina, he marched hurriedly for a day, and finally met the escorted targets.

"Well! Rest, leave early tomorrow, and you should be able to reach Xiyang City in the evening." Mina nodded, and she also saw that the orc children couldn't move anymore.

"Okay, I'll let everyone bury the pot and cook the porridge."

Niu Da immediately went to order the soldiers to set up camp, and those who should be on guard should still be on the alert. Although it was on the outskirts of the confinement mountain range, people would still die if they were careless.

Like Mina who explored the road, they walked thousands of meters ahead of time to shoot and drive those beasts away. Otherwise, these orc children and a few old, weak, sick and disabled were simply the dishes of the beasts.

When they heard that they could rest, the orc children cheered. Many of them sat on the ground with painful expressions on their faces. They were exhausted from walking for four days, even if they walked slowly.

Mary and the old orcs watched Niu Da and the others vigilantly, gathered the orc children together, and dragged Wei Ya to chatter.

"Weiya, are those noble knights?" Mary asked in a low voice.

"It should be counted!" Wei Ya said after thinking for a while, "However, adults call them soldiers, but there are very few knights. Mr. Niu Da is a knight."

"Soldier? There are few knights?" Mary was a little puzzled.

In her understanding, the number of knights is related to the strength of a nobleman. Could it be that the nobleman Wei Ya mentioned is a very weak nobleman?
