Chapter 87 Reinforcements Arrive
Towards the end of September, the wilderness began to cool down, and some of the thinner people even put on outer coats.

As the population of Gaoyabao increases, the division of various areas naturally cannot be as sloppy as in the early days.

With the pool of water with a spring on the hill as the center, the Fed craftsmen built a four-blade-high wall here to enclose an area and built a number of buildings inside. The most conspicuous of them is a three-story wooden building.

The three-story wooden building is the administrative center of Gaoya Fort, and only high-ranking personnel can enter and exit.

Afterwards, only the soldiers of Gaoya Fort were stationed in these houses within the wall. It was considered a military stronghold and basically no outsiders were allowed to enter.

The rest of the people settled around like egg white wrapping around the yolk.

As for the slaves in Gaoya Castle, they could only solve the settlement problem on their own at the foot of the hill.

But Levi doesn't need to worry about these things. As the lord, he is probably the most relaxed person in the entire High Cliff Castle.

When he had some free time, he teased a group of wolf cubs and told them to pick up pebbles by the river.

Those who picked up the most would be rewarded by Levi with a piece of venison he had roasted himself.

"These little guys will all be brave warriors in the future."

Levi looked at this group of vigorous and powerful werewolf cubs with satisfaction, picked up a skewer of roasted venison and handed it to Hogg who was guarding loyally beside him.

Hogg quickly raised his hand to refuse. Seeing that it refused to eat, Levi did not force it and threw it to a little werewolf.

It quickly touched its chest and bowed respectfully before enjoying the grilled skewers covered with seasonings, leaving its companions swallowing their saliva.

"Look, others may not be able to get it even if they want to." Levi curled his lips and made up a comment about Hogg.

Hogg just grinned and didn't say much.

If Zat was here, he wouldn't need to be told. This big fool would just pick it up and show off. He didn't care if he would be scolded later, but just wanted to eat it first.

It can be said that in the entire Highcliff Castle, only Hogg, Zat and Beristina have the honor of having the kebabs grilled by the lord himself.

Levi treats these heroic units as treasures.

"Boss, why are you grilling here by yourself without calling me?"

Speak of the devil, here he appears. Zat's loud voice soon rang out, and he reached out to take the skewers of meat on the fire.

Snapped!
"Go bake it yourself!"

Levi expressionlessly slapped its hand away. Zat pouted and, under the pressure of the tyranny, he could only squat on the ground with his huge body and slowly pick up the skewers of meat beside him and start grilling them.

After finally baking it and preparing to eat it, Levi snatched it away.

“It’s a little burnt on the outside.”

The lord gave a fair evaluation, and Zat felt as aggrieved as a 700-pound baby.

But there was nothing he could do since Levi was the leader, so he could only pick up a bunch of skewers and act as the barbecue worker.

"Have Muto and the others made their decision?" Li Wei asked while eating.

"Well, they decided to set out for the Far North in a few days to migrate their entire tribe here, just in time to return before winter."

When it comes to serious matters, Zat is very serious.

Just as Levi was about to speak, the sound of horse hooves approaching from afar interrupted the leisurely barbecue time.

The flat grassland terrain allows people to see very far, and coupled with his excellent eyesight, he can easily see that it is a group of human cavalry heading towards Gaoya Castle.

Without Levi's orders, Hogg let out a wolf howl and a team of eleven werewolf cavalrymen galloped down the hill. He rode on his wolf and followed.

In a few months, with the growth rate of the gnolls, some wolf cubs in the gnoll tribe also grew up to the level of being able to serve as warriors. The two sides stopped when they were one or two hundred steps away from each other. The leader of the attacking human cavalry took the initiative to come forward and exchange words. The gnoll cavalry then dispersed and let them pass, but still surrounded them vigilantly.

As long as the situation is not right, we can launch an attack immediately.

Finally, when they were fifty steps away from Levi, this team of cavalry dismounted and walked over, leading their horses.

These cavalrymen were tall and strong, all wearing chain mail, carrying cavalry swords, and carrying bows and crossbows. They were among the elite among Debe's soldiers.

"Good day, Lord Levi."

Leading the group was a middle-aged knight in chain mail, who saluted respectfully.

Before Levi could ask how he could recognize him at a glance, the middle-aged man actually spoke first.

"Duke Florina and Miss Leah asked me to say hello to you."

"Are you here to pick up the Mithril Caravan?"

Levi put his hands in his trouser pockets. The wind in the wilderness slowly blew his hair back, revealing his white forehead.

"You guessed right." The middle-aged knight complimented.

His eyes were full of curiosity about this lord. Before coming, Duke Florina told him to make friends with this lord. As a result, when he was about to leave, Miss Leah found him again and asked him to say hello on her behalf.

Along the way, he was curious about which baron could be valued by two "dukes" at the same time, until he met them and finally understood.

Not to mention anything else, the appearance of this lord is enough to make a group of upper-class ladies fall for him.

It seems that my previous guess was correct. This Mithril Chamber of Commerce must be related to Florina, Levi thought to himself.

At this time, Miriel, who heard the noise, also rushed over.

"Okay, then you guys chat, and let me know when you're ready to leave."

Levi waved his hand, and the werewolf cavalry dispersed. He was no longer in the mood for a barbecue, so he walked towards the hill with his hands in his pockets.

"Knight Skye, thank goodness you're finally here."

Miriel finally felt relieved when she saw the reinforcements. She had not slept well at night these past few days.

"I'm sorry Lord Miriel, we encountered some wilderness bandits on the way, and it took us some time to deal with them."

The middle-aged knight, who seemed to hold a relatively low position, was still respectful to Miriel.

"Let's not talk about this. You've been traveling all week, so take a good rest for a day."

Miriel led the thirty-man cavalry team towards the caravan camp.

Along the way, Sikai looked at the pioneer curiously, and his eyes changed from indifferent at the beginning to serious.

"Are you shocked?"

After realizing that it was Miriel who asked the question, Skye nodded and said, "Before I came here, Duke Florina only told me that this was a newly developed territory. But from what I have seen along the way, whether it is the strength of the territory's people or the guards, I am afraid that even some earldoms cannot compare with them."

In fact, Sikai concealed a little bit. Duke Florina asked him to pick up the Mithril Chamber of Commerce and also asked him to investigate the current development of Gaoya Castle.

If things don't go well, as Duke Florina said, we should try our best to recruit this knight.

But under the current circumstances, it is obviously impossible to recruit.
