Chapitre 18: Chapter 17: Goal
Later that Day,
Black Moon village,
Within the Main Hall, Alex was on the throne as he enjoyed the warmth from the small fireplace while waiting . Soon Dabok and Lovan walked in together, the former took short glances at the Hall while nodding his head.
Soon both parties were seated, To his left, the first seat was taken by the Old Orc Dabok and To his right was Lovan.
He greeted them with a nod simply said, "Lovan, before I summarize the situation, I saw that you had almost finished building the fence ... good work."
"Ah...y...Yes," Lovan fumbled a response while subconsciously standing up. "also, the others have gathered the meat like you requested and are still gathering the wood.
Hearing his words, Alex did not respond and had taken the opportunity to look at the system that showed black moon village's resources again.
after going through them, he made some calculations in his mind, 'with this amount of wood should be enough to complete the fence and a few normal houses... hopefully they change as well during the upgrade as I imagined, that would help with the pace of things'.
By the time he got back, the village had enough mana(Exp) to upgrade but he chose to wait till all this 'construction' was done.
After his thoughts were complete, He said to Lovan, " Have the warriors join them in gathering for now"
For some reason, he wanted to end this first upgrade as quickly as possible so he could tackle the mine issue. with the addition of Torrelsav and the other first order creatures, he felt more confident in slowly whittling down the Grole spiders. As for the 'Dealing with the Queen' Quest?, he would need to see her before making any decision.
when he was done speaking, Alex turned to Dabok "Old Dabok, What do you think?."
an amused expression appeared on his somewhat aged face, after he evolved, he became a bit younger than before, so he was really happy. He looked at Alex while adjusting the thick Black robe he now wore and said calmly, "Good, Chief Torug, I assume now you should have your sights on the surrounding Tribes?!"
Alex smiled, "I indeed have my sights there but not for now, I'm more interested in the Mine..."
Dabok frowned and said, "Mine?"
" Yes Mine...the cave with the shiny rocks...your 'mission' from a few days ago, how did it go?" Alex responded calmly, enunciating his words in order for the Orc to understand and learn.
These days Alex has been slowly teaching and using new words on the Orcs and Goblins, so they could slowly pick some things. when he was bored he would even go as far as teaching the English alphabets.
"Yes... I had placed the 'T..totems'? where you asked" Dabok answered curtly, frowning when he tried to pronounce totem. The Old Orc had earned a few skills when he became a shaman and making objects a totem was one of his skills. for example, He could pick a rock and use the skill while focusing on the rock, the Rock would then be marked, giving him control over it as he could trigger it to either buff allies within the totem's range, and increase ones attributes for a period of 20 minutes or grant de-buffs to enemies within range as well. as for the amount, Alex felt that he still needed to study it.
Alex was Elated when he heard this, it was a powerful skill if used correctly. So he had asked Dabok to make totems in strategic places around the village.
He pondered for a moment, looking at the old Orc, and said seriously, "you have done well".
"it is now time to improve the military strength of the territory." Dabok and Lovan looked at Alex with a confused expression as they couldn't understand him.
"I mean, we need more warriors and Shamans". Alex quickly corrected himself but he could still hear Lovan muttering," military strength ".
Hearing this Dabok became excited, Alex simply smiled and said to him, "this task of gathering the warriors, I give to you and Urim."
Dabok laughed, and said loudly, " Hahaha I will do it, Chief!"
Alex nodded as he could understand why he was excited, after all the Orc hadn't evolved for many years, he felt he would die soon and now he did, he was eager to test his strength.
Alex was just happy the Orc didn't come to challenge him as that would have been tiring, considering the timing.
He turned to Lovan," Bring the new ones here".
Lovan quickly rose to take his leave, saying loudly, "y..yes!!."
the Old Orc took a look at the Exiting goblin and Alex continued, drawing his attention, "With this goals addressed, I would like to take this opportunity to talk to you about some long term goals, so that you have a good idea where we are going. I intend to build a kingdom like the Degr kingdom, no something more powerful ."
The moment he mentioned this, Dabok looked at Alex in surprise before clenching his fist. the old Orc was lost in thought for a while before speaking with a deep voice, he looked very serious and all traces of his playful nature were gone, "Torug, is this because of my stories?... Orc King Siho is very 'D..an...Dangerous', you just too weak".
This shocked Alex as he doesn't remember Dabok telling him any stories, but it explains a lot of things...
From the look of things, Dabok seemed to have some connection with the Degr kingdom which was why he knew of the impaling and seemed more intelligent than normal. He must have told stories to Urim and the previous body's owner, increasing his ambitions as well as Urim's sense of brotherhood.
With all this thought, he still responded calmly "that is why I said it was a 'long' term Goal and to achieve this goal, we must build a strong power. one that would even attract the attention of the 700 Lordly houses. We are fortunate that our territory has an Advanced Mana Node." Alex adjusted himself to face Dabok with a crazed look as he imagined himself playing in the big leagues, and said to him, "Degr is too small, Cilldean is too small!, Dabok!...let me show you the world!!."
Dabok looked at Alex, although he knew Alex hadn't seen or had very little knowledge of the world, he couldn't help but be compelled to believe him. After all the welp had changed, he could even use words to sway the gods like Siho's generals could and create buildings from thin air.
after some thoughts, he got up calmly, and said evenly, "I believe in your Honor Torug!"
Alex nodded, looking around while patting Dabok's shoulders. "we are done for today. The arrangements for your new 'mission' should be discussed with Urim, where is he?!"
Dabok had risen, and said with more determination, "We will do as you have asked!"
When Dabok left, Alex assigned the new warriors to him and asked those in the serf pathway to follow Lovan.
**********************************
Luegad year 1598.
After four days of construction, the construction projects of the territories were nearing completion.
The fence was completed , and the remaining wood was used to create more residences and had been completed. The massive Store house also entered the finishing stage, and would be completed today. Alex had helped in drying the meat and had no where to place it, after some enquiries he found out from the system that he should have a designated warehouse.
once he does, he could place perishable foods in it without fear of it spoiling, but there was a catch...it had to be something acceptable by the system.
This confused him, how would he know what was acceptable. so after two failed attempts, where even the citizens of Black moon village began to think their Chief was crazy, he was now on the third try. He increased the size of the building while placing it a few paces behind the Main Hall which was at the center of the village.
Surprisingly, Over the past four days, forty three more immigrants had arrived, mostly Goblins and kobolds, thirteen warriors and thirty basic Goblins. this made him want to urgently level everyone up, hopefully those with Lv 9 would enter the first circle after this upgrade.
Thinking of the development of the past few days, Alex paced towards the new warehouse..
At the door, Lovan was standing ordering some serfs while eagerly waiting for Alex's decision, after all they didn't know about the system and took it as their Chief being very picky. Seeing Alex, he laughed nervously and said excitedly while wiping his face with the edges of his oversized black robes, "Chief, come, come!"
Looking at his expression, Alex felt helpless, as he could only smile and say, "Okay!". He must say that he was extremely proud of his Goblins as he found them to be very intelligent and dexterous when they were eager to learn. For example, after some 'Explanations' to the goblin that had cloth making skills, he finally made something that Alex could comfortably wear, although it was a skirt like attire, it was enough to leave him his dignity.
he and the other orcs except Dabok now had a Loose black 'skirt' around their waist, and for some reason the goblin found it funny to attach three goblin skulls to the belt area. When Alex asked about it, she kept saying "as chief, as chief".
In less than five minutes, all the construction was completed. it was now time, to awe this 'newbies'.
Alex quickly gathered everyone
