Chapter 59 Don't want to trade

"That kind of thing is not needed." Valed answered Valkyrie's praise: "I am seventeen years old this year and will be able to compare with you in terms of skills. Then in another ten years, my skills will go further and perfect. And my physical strength and physical fitness will also approach perfection. By that time, when I fight with you, both sides will show mercy and fight with all their strength. I am afraid no one will know who wins and loses."

Valed said on the surface, "No one knows", but looking at his confident look, he said he was sure to win and some people believed it.

Valkyya paused for a moment, then laughed to the sky: "Ten years? Ten years want to defeat me? Mortals, arrogant!"

Her roar was like thunder on the ground, causing a pain in the eardrum. But seeing that her smile did not diminish, she knew that she was probably not angry. Therefore, Valed still remained calm and looked confident, looking at Valkyya not speaking.

After a moment like this, Valkyya felt a scheming in her heart—or, she heard the order of the terrifying blood god from afar. She flapped her wings, turned around, and flew towards the north, leaving behind such a string of words:

"Is it ten years? Well, I'll wait for you for ten years! Anyway, your and my life is endless. Ten years are no different from a flash of fingers for me! I will come to you again in ten years. If you fail to defeat me at that time as you said, I will cut off your head as a spoil."

After this passage was finished, the Valkyrie had already flew away and could no longer see it.

"Is it a ten-year life... eternal life..."

After hearing this conversation, Elsa and Isabella had no feelings. Only Katie felt a little... no, very, very uncomfortable. This was a question she had never considered before, or refused to consider. Compared with the endless life of vampires, the short life of humans for decades commanded people to lament. Just think about it a hundred years later, Vared was still young and handsome, but she had already become a piece of loess, and Katie felt heartbroken.

If it were in normal times, her sadness would have been captured by Valed. The quick-minded Earl Castein naturally had a way to comfort his subordinates. But at this moment, Valed herself was in trouble...

Seeing Valkyya fly away, Valed breathed a sigh of relief. After this relaxation, he vomited blood and staggered two steps. He almost fell to the ground. The two girls Isabella and Elsa quickly supported her from left to right.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Isabella asked anxiously. On the other side, Elsa used the Dark Resuscitation technique to help Valed heal his injuries.

"That guy... used all his strength in his last move." Vared said with a wry smile: "It is worthy of being the body of the demon god created by the Blood God. Although I defended this blow, the remaining strength still made me feel uncomfortable. I am afraid that my internal organs will be damaged."

"...That bastard!" Isabella cursed hatefully after hearing what Valed said. She felt regretful and wanted to replace him. She asked herself how much she was not as good as Valed. If she used the same method as Valed, she would probably be able to force Valkya away. But she had no time to discuss such things at that time. So Isabella could only secretly blame herself for being stupid. She secretly vowed to become smarter in the next days...

"What should we do next?" Elsa asked with relief after releasing two Dark Resuscitation healing for Valed.

"Next... to the east is the place where Norska and the old world south of the land. The further you go south, the weaker the power of chaos will be. So, let's go southeast quickly." Vared said.

"This is indeed a solution." Elsa nodded: "Then let's take a rest for a night before we get on the road."

"Well. It's better to find a tribe of the Noska barbarians first, buy, or rob some transportation... Horses are the best," said Vared.

"But where do we go to find a savage tribe?" Isabella continued.

"There will always be some traces. We met a group of barbarians during the day. This proves that we are probably not far from a tribe now. As long as we are careful, it is not difficult to find it." Vared replied.

"That's right, places with a lot of prey, near water sources and flat terrain, search according to such geological laws, and you should be able to find it soon." At this moment, Katie had recovered from thinking. Hearing their discussion, he interrupted.

"So that's it. Let's rest... Elsa, please be vigil."

"knew."

Vared said this, and then, with Isabella and Katie, they held up the tent, rekindled the bonfire, and then rested like this.

On the next day, the group followed the place where Valed encountered those barbarians yesterday and walked along the beast path. After walking for more than a day, they heard the sound of the stream. After walking along the stream for a short time, they saw a tribe of the barbarians of the Noska.

There were no stone walls or wood fences outside the tribe, and there were not even ordinary watchtowers or posts. It seemed that these barbarians did a very bad job in the defense of their territory. Or they believed too much of their own strength. In short, there was no defense. Long wooden houses scattered in the open space next to the stream formed a typical Norska barbarian tribe.

These Norska barbarians live here. Some older people are using their craft to make hunting bows, sharpen swords and make shields and leather armor. Some middle-aged blacksmiths are using the ancient craft of the Middle Ages to light fires, beat and forge weapons. Next to the stream, some young people with upper bodies are scooping harpoons and trying to catch fish. Some women are sewing clothes of animal skins with rough lines.

In short, it is simple, primitive, and barbaric, but it looks full of vitality. It's just that the young people seem to be less. Vared thought to himself that if they either went somewhere else, they would have been killed by themselves in the battle yesterday.

These Norska barbarians have no different appearances from southern humans. They are only taller and stronger. In the low temperature of only a dozen degrees, they only wore simple clothes made of animal skins, with strong, strong arms and thighs. They didn't look cold at all.

Their values ​​are also more suitable for survival in wilderness areas like Noska, prey on the weak and survival of the fittest. For them, plunder and killing are not evil, but the source of glory and part of life.

Although not real, evil humans who wander in the abandoned land of Chaos and who completely believe in the evil god of Chaos are also less mutated by Chaos. However, these Noska barbarians are also more inclined to chaos in terms of faith.

Whenever Chaos invades, they will act as vanguards and cannon fodders of the Chaos Evil God whenever Chaos invades, together with the Kugans, the Huns, and these barbaric tribes that also live in the abandoned Chaos land, acting as vanguards and cannon fodders of the Chaos Evil God. This makes them very tense with the human empire in the south, the Skiff Kingdom and other countries.

But generally speaking, they would still trade some commercial trade with the Empire, the Kingdom of Skiff, and the Kingdom of Dwarfs. They used the animal skins they hunted in the north, the gems they mined, the goods, gold and the horses they kept in exchange for their much-needed food, the spirits they used to keep warm, and the luxury goods for the nobles to enjoy.

But generally speaking, for these barbarian tribes, gold nuggets and gems are not available, but they are extremely valuable things like horses and iron, but they are extremely valuable wealth and cannot be bought or sold easily. If they are nomadic peoples like the Kugan and the Huns, they have more horses. However, the Noska barbarians are not good at raising horses.

So, Valed's plan is very difficult.

After entering this tribe, Valed and his group were treated indifferently first, and after proposing to exchange horses, they were even ridiculed and expelled. Valed tried to scooped out some magical crafts produced by Sylvania, timers, music boxes and well-made craft knives. These things were always attractive to the barbarians. Unfortunately, these barbarians still had no intention of trading with him. Instead, they wanted to rob.

"It's so damn, these scums." Isabella couldn't help but curse. Then the group fell into a melee.

After Isabella took action and slashed a Noska barbarian, the remaining barbarians immediately roared and attacked them.

"This is unreasonable. Generally speaking, they should not refuse trade. They should take the initiative to plunder the merchants who entered the tribe. After the incident spreads, it will be a serious blow to their reputation. After that, no merchants will come here. They will decline." Vared waving his sword and killing the savages of the Noska who rushed up, and said loudly.

"Maybe they have other plans. Have you noticed?" Katie said to Vared: "The one you originally thought was a hunting force. I later observed that they were equipped with a full set of armor, helmets and combat weapons. They did not carry any prey. In other words, they were not actually hunting forces, but a combat force."

"What does that mean?" Isabella asked.
