Chapter 273 I came to Yonglan to do only two things
Orcs have a tradition of sharing husbands, or rather, this is not just a tradition among orcs. In ancient times when the Kingdom of Order had not yet been established, this kind of custom was quite common.
The reason is that the pressure of survival is too great. In an era without stable order and reliable paths, the ethnic groups struggling to survive face all kinds of natural disasters, man-made disasters, monsters and monsters. If they want to survive as long as possible, they must give full play to the inheritance effect of blood.
As long as there is a strong person in the tribe, no matter he grew up in the tribe or was abducted from outside, his surplus value must be severely exploited.
It is better to rely on people than on heaven or earth. Give birth! Give birth vigorously!
If strong tribesmen, especially strong males, can cast a wide net and sow more seeds, leaving behind a few high-quality offspring, the entire tribe will be blessed.
Different from the pursuit of extreme eugenics by the imperial aristocracy, this custom was a helpless move for survival and became a consensus over time.
"My father used to be the strongest warrior in the tribe. Almost all females of the right age were his mating partners. Therefore, I have hundreds of half-brothers and sisters. They are the backbone of the Twilight Territory today."
"But due to the blockade, it is difficult for my brothers and sisters to go out and find a partner. After all, we are not like the nobles of the empire, who have pure blood that is not afraid of any disease."
Mivana talked about her original family. She said a lot, but the central idea she revealed was very clear.
The sisters have suffered for so long, it’s time to let the fellow villagers enjoy some life.
The tribe leader has carefully selected and brought the strongest, wildest and most attractive males!
"Oh, no wonder you have no shame."
Leixia suddenly smiled with relief and shook her head.
It was really stupid to think that I had even had the slightest thought of competing with Mivana before.
This wolf cub doesn't even know what jealousy is!
This strange idea that Mivana did not have any possessiveness towards Westhead in the conventional sense, but instead felt proud and proud of the latter's romanticism, was explained.
In the eyes of the wolf-eared girl, the more females her partner can possess, the more it can prove his excellence as a male. Isn't it a happy thing that Westhead can be sought after and recognized!
“It’s really wild.”
Westhead clicked his tongue and said that he actually had no prejudice against this custom, he could only say that it was a normal phenomenon.
However.
"This custom and tradition has its reasons, but under the protection of Qinghui Territory, you don't have to worry about your survival in the future. It's better to love freely."
If Leshia wasn't around, Westhead might have agreed just to make Myvana happy.
But at this moment, Westhead was upright and dignified. Even though he was surrounded by the plump and soft bodies of several animal-eared girls, he remained calm.
"I'm not such a casual person, so don't mention this matter again."
Westhead tried his best not to look at the aggrieved and pitiful look of the girl with animal ears and refused.
He was indeed not that hungry. To be honest, Westhead had very high standards. Now, unless it was someone who could share good talents and expertise with him, Lord Qinghui would not even take a second look at him.
I like beautiful women, but it’s just for food, sex and nature, not to the extent of thinking with my lower body.
"If Weiss doesn't want to, then there's nothing we can do."
Myvana drooped her ears and looked at her blood sisters.
"I see. We are indeed not qualified. This is as it should be."
The beast-eared girl sighed with regret and stood up reluctantly:
"How can we, weak fellows like us, expect the mercy of a strong man like you?"
That's really true. Lord Qinghui has enough vases in his family and doesn't need to take care of more flashy guys.
However, for the sake of Mivana, Westhead decided to give the wolf-eared girl's fellow villagers some opportunities.
"Don't be too discouraged. It's not that you don't have a chance. Although I can't follow the customs of the orc tribe and sow seeds equally among all of you, once you embark on the extraordinary path, work hard to advance and become my trusted maid, then you will have the opportunity to receive my favor."
Westhead soothed her, causing the simple animal-eared girl's eyes to light up with excitement and anticipation.
In the palace of Lord Qinghui, the most core maid position is not a vase, but an elite after layers of screening. They are also strictly selected by the Holy Spirit of Brightness. The maids who can finally enter the holy land to serve Lord Qinghui are the elites among the elites, loyal, talented and beautiful.
What, you said this is simply selecting a concubine?
Well, that's right, as the unmarried and childless Prince Qinghui, Westhead's right to teach and train is unlimited!
"It's settled then! We'll try our best!"
The animal-eared girl's big tail swung rapidly because of excitement, and the air flow it created hit Westhead's face.
There is an exceptionally strong aroma, which belongs to the sunny day.
If they were not really weak, there was no doubt that they would suppress Westhead and severely Xingqing! Miwana was already gentle and elegant among her compatriots.
Leixia suddenly asked: "By the way, are there reproductive isolation between orcs and normal humans?"
"It depends on your constitution. Some people can do it, some can't. No one can tell for sure without personal experience. But at my stage, wanting to have a child is like drawing a lottery."
Westhead shrugged and said that the higher one climbs in the extraordinary level, the more the life level will be sublimated, and the possibility of giving birth to offspring will be lower.
It has nothing to do with objective factors, it is purely metaphysical probability.
"Weiss has no offspring so far. If the orcs can increase the possibility, then it would be a good choice."
Leixia has always been thinking from Westhead's perspective. For a family patriarch, continuing the bloodline is more important than anything else, so she is very concerned about Westhead's fertility.
If it is for the purpose of continuing the bloodline, then everything can be understood and accepted.
Westhead shook his head and said, "Ha, there's actually no rush for this."
From the perspective of outsiders, everything about Lord Qinghui is good except that his family is too worrying. It is too dangerous to have only one direct descendant.
It’s not okay to be childless!
But Westhead himself never thought that offspring were important. Some gods would leave their bloodline in the mortal world as an anchor, but Lord Qinghui was ready to learn the virtues of [Eternal Storm Rider].
"Let it be. I won't force anything. Let's not discuss the issue of offspring. Let's just get close!"
Westhead put one arm around Resia's slender waist and the other around Myvana's shoulders, pulling the two lovers towards him.
The delicate face that was as soft as a baby's touched against his own cheeks, feeling each other's warmth.
"call"
"Well!"
The white-haired dragon lady and the wolf-eared girl let out soft cries of tenderness, but neither of them resisted at all. Instead, they adjusted themselves into a comfortable position and rested their heads on their lovers' shoulders.
The silence speaks.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
At this warm moment, a Qinghui guard came quickly, saluted Westhead and said:
"Knight Yonglan. There are knights coming. Several great knights want to visit Mudeng Territory. Should we let them in?" "I invited them, but why did they really come?"
Upon hearing this, Westhead subconsciously raised his eyebrows and looked at Myvana.
The Lord of Dusk Lantern nodded and said, "If it is done with good intentions, then there is no problem."
Then Westhead waved his hand and said:
"Come on, why not come! Let the Yonglan Knights come and see the current situation of the Twilight Territory. I think this is a kind of confidence."
As he spoke, Westhead stood up and put the shadow beside him on his waist:
"But the premise is that they are really here to visit. If they are friends, we will naturally offer them fine wine, but if they are enemies, we can only entertain them with swords."
He would personally go to greet and accompany the visiting knight. Although he did not think that after this battle, there would be any rational guy who would provoke him, but when he thought that the other party was Knight Yonglan, it was possible that he would do anything outrageous.
With a group of Qinghui Guards, Westhead rushed to the main city of Dusklight Territory and met the visiting team of knights.
There are not many, only about twenty Yonglan knights, but among them there are three or four great knights, so the lineup can be said to be luxurious.
"Mr. Westhead, we meet again."
Uther took off his heavy black armor and wore only a neat knight's uniform. He nodded slightly to Lord Qinghui and said:
"I hope I don't bother you. I see there seems to be a celebration going on here."
"Of course not. In fact, I was a little surprised. I didn't expect that someone would come to visit Twilight Territory. In your eyes, the orcs' territory is something you would never want to set foot in, even if you kill yourself."
It would be a different matter if you set foot there as a conqueror.
Westhead noticed that the visiting knights were basically not wearing armor, and only carried swords, with the scabbards wrapped and sealed with black cloth.
This is a hint that this trip is not for the purpose of fighting, which can be regarded as the highest etiquette in the Kingdom of Yonglan.
Westhead was very satisfied with this. These Yonglan Knights were really subdued by him and no longer had the unruly look they had at the beginning.
"In fact, we were quite hesitant at first. It was Lord Mephis who first proposed it."
Uther looked at the blue-haired knight beside him and said.
The young knight girl immediately bent down slightly and waved to Westhead, causing her sky-blue shoulder-length hair to flutter and cover half of her pretty face.
"Hi~~"
Mavis gently lifted the white cloak draped around his shoulders. Under the cloak was a corset covered with exquisite platinum embroidery, which fully revealed his slim and youthful figure. His almond-shaped eyes were slightly raised.
Elegant, sweet, yet with a slightly serpentine smile.
"Sir Westhead, you said that Dusk Lantern Territory welcomes visitors. I hope this is not just a polite remark. But even if it is a polite remark, I am visiting in the name of the Qinxin Family, so I should be accepted, right?"
"Qin Xin."
When Mivana heard teacher Viona's last name, her eyes became dazed.
She didn't know much about the Qinxin family. She only knew that it was a very prominent knight family, and even had its headquarters in the [Heart of Mist]. This meant that the Qinxin family was the most core Steel Guardians of the Kingdom of Yonglan, and occupied a permanent seat on the Knights' Council.
But after the previous family rising star [Sword of Star Lake] passed away in Mudeng Lord, the Qinxin family did not make any move, and did not even come to collect Viona's body.
Mephisto is the second member of the Qinxin family that Myvana has met.
But Westhead knew more about the situation. He looked at Mavis meaningfully and stretched out his hand, saying:
"Since you have chosen to come here in a friendly manner, then I naturally have no reason to refuse. If you choose to be the king, how can you not have the corresponding magnanimity?"
"Please come in. You will not be excluded from this celebration. A glass of fruit wine is no problem."
Led by Westhead, the Yonglan Knights' team entered the main city and took seats at the banquet. Everyone was given a large glass of fruit wine and barbecue.
The orcs looked at the group of knights with curiosity and fear. Some of the brave ones, seeing that Myvana and others were there, dared to move closer.
"These orcs don't look as bad as we thought."
The visiting Knight Yonglan was obviously carefully selected. He was one of the most open-minded people who had the least discrimination against other races. He was prepared to endure the crude orcs, but in actual experience, he found that except for those inhuman animal signs which were very glaring, they were no different from ordinary people.
"Prejudice in people's hearts is as huge as a mountain. The ten years of hard work of the [Sword of Star Lake] here were not in vain."
Westhead glanced at Uther and said, "Once you learn more, you will understand that the Dusk Lantern Territory is not Yonglan's enemy at all."
The Black Knight, who owed a favor, hesitated for a moment and said:
"It is biased to define orcs as a non-human species. Perhaps it is more appropriate to classify orcs as a race similar to elves."
As Uther spoke, the other Yonglan Knights nodded in agreement.
"Yes, compared to the monsters I killed, these orcs are indeed much more normal."
"By the way, it seems that the Kingdom of Yonglan has never suffered from the disaster of orcs, right?"
"."
"But the orcs' origins are foul."
Mavis suddenly said coldly, with a hint of melancholy in his brows: "Although it is not their fault."
Uther saw that Mephis was talking about something that was not conducive to unity, so he quickly changed the subject and said:
"Your Excellency Westhead's announcement of the King's Pilgrimage is really too hasty. Even if you have made full preparations, at least let us know your ideas so that you can have something to say when you tell other colleagues."
This is the real purpose of their trip. It doesn’t matter whether the orcs in the Mu Deng Territory are raw meat eaters or civilized.
"Oh, I was negligent about this. I had planned to publicize it after the tour officially started, but since you all came to ask, I'll just tell you straight away."
Westhead raised his finger and said:
"My request to the Knight Lords is very simple. I came to the Kingdom of Yonglan only to accomplish two things."
"First, I hope to obtain the right to initiate and command the Knight's Way Expedition, to be able to command the Knights of Yonglan to launch a glorious expedition against the enemy, whether it is Chaos or the mortal world. Of course, this will be paid. I guarantee that every warrior will benefit greatly from the expedition I lead and return with a full load."
"This is the authority and duty of the Knight King, so there is no need to explain further."
The knights nodded and asked:
"What about the second thing?"
Westhead: "The second thing is to reform the Kingdom of Yonglan, completely abolish the serfdom system, and redefine the path of knighthood."
