Chapter 206: You Can Go to the Northern Territory
...
...
Stepping over the melting snow, Luo De slowly walked into the Wolf Field.
Hammer and Bard followed behind, cautiously scanning the entire Wolf Field with anxious eyes.
"Hammer, do you think there are really giant wolves like the Lord said?" Bard asked in a low voice.
"When has the Lord ever lied to us?"
Hammer replied softly, "Besides, if it weren't true, would the Lord take us for a walk here..."
"Oh right, right!"
Bard sighed, hammering his head, "Getting old, some things are still a bit hard to accept."
On the way, the Lord had already told them the purpose; Bard found it hard to believe after hearing the description.
Even though Frost Leaf Town has always had legends of giant wolves.
"Hurry up, you'll see them soon."
Hammer urged, closely following Luo De's footsteps.
Besides Hammer and Bard, there were also carpenter Waller and leatherworker deputy supervisor Sailun.
Previously, leatherwork was always handled by Rein, but after he became a main force in the army, the work was handed over to the newly promoted deputy supervisor.
Just as they were about to enter the manager's wooden house of the Wolf Field, everyone stopped.
"What... what kind of monster is this?"
Bard's hand unconsciously moved to the axe at his waist.
At the door of the wooden house, two giant wolves were slowly walking out.
One was a White Wolf, and the other was a mutated Sharp Fang.
Even though they had heard about it in advance, seeing the giant wolves in person still startled Bard, causing his legs to tremble involuntarily.
The fierce sharp eyes and menacing fangs made it hard to believe they had been tamed.
Hammer wasn't better off either, involuntarily hiding behind Luo De.
"Rest assured, they don't eat humans."
Luo De walked up to the two nearest giant wolves, and the White Wolf and Sharp Fang lowered their heads in unison, allowing Luo De to pet them.
"They are comrades and partners, you don't need to be afraid."
"Come on, come measure them."
Hammer and Bard exchanged looks, then turned to Waller and leatherworker Sailun.
Waller and Sailun both stepped back.
"You go ahead, Mr. Supervisor."
Bard willingly pushed Hammer forward, "I'll treat you to a drink tonight."
"I've quit drinking."
Hammer held onto Bard, "You're older, your courage should be greater than mine!"
"Alright... but they're so big, I can't do it alone, we need to do it together."
Bard also kept hold of Hammer.
In the end, both took a deep breath, swallowing hard, slowly approaching.
Seeing the two's cautious manners, the White Wolf suddenly lowered its head, letting out a low growl from its throat, frightening them to the ground.
"Stop it, White Wolf, our craftsmen are quite timid."
Luo De gave the White Wolf a pat, while the White Wolf grinned, a cunning glint in its eyes.
The White Wolf had been raising pups recently, clearly not as stern and stable as before.
"No worries, just go measure Sharp Fang, all four of you, hurry."
Luo De instructed the craftsmen, then turned around, pulling out a newly prepared mutated potion to Woflhoof,
"Go arrange a new awakening for the Desert Wolf, pick the strongest to avoid mistakes."
"Yes, Saint Master."
Woflhoof bowed respectfully, then turned around to face the eager eyes of the clansmen.
Luo De then turned back and said to the White Wolf, "Let's go, old buddy, we have to get some raw materials."
The White Wolf nodded, and the two walked towards the wooden house on the side.
The White Wolf lay down familiarly, and Luo De took out a Beast Bone Needle to draw blood from the White Wolf.
"Did you test it, how's Sharp Fang's stamina and physical strength?"
Luo De casually asked while watching the dripping blood.
"High bursts, but the sustained stamina can't compare with warhorses."
The White Wolf replied without hesitation, "When without anyone on its back, its speed is about the same as Night Fury."
"That fast?"
Luo De looked at the White Wolf in surprise.
"Of course, haven't you seen whose mutated blood they came from?"
The White Wolf's face showed a human-like pride, then the topic shifted, "But stamina... just not nearly as good."
"After long-distance running, it obviously falls behind Night Fury, and your other warhorses slowly catch up."
"Normal, long-distance raids were never your strong suit."
Luo De stroked the White Wolf's long fur, then asked, "What about strength?"
"Don't compare strength, different fields of expertise."
The White Wolf's tone carried a hint of amusement, "We can't match horses in carrying capability."
"But the ability to bite and pounce is innate to us wolves, something those warhorses can't compare to."
"Except for Night Fury, many warhorses don't dare to charge when seeing Sharp Fang."
Luo De nodded, "That's perfect, let Sharp Fang practice more with the warhorses to toughen their courage."
"Mm, no problem."
The White Wolf agreed, "Even if you don't say it, we'll communicate more with the stables, we need to adopt a lot of training from the warhorses."
"Mm, I'll have Durant give you some riding lessons."
Luo De agreed with the White Wolf's viewpoint.
There is no inherited method for training giant wolf cavalry, they'll have to explore slowly together.
Combat is the White Wolf's nature, and the White Wolf can directly teach it to the mutated giant wolves.
But how to coordinate with the knights on their backs, the White Wolf is clueless and has to learn and train anew.
While the warhorse and knight training provides a good reference.
"Eh?"
Luo De, stroking the White Wolf's long fur, suddenly said, "Do you feel hot in the summer? Should we cut off this fur?"
"I just happen to make a mat with it..."
"No way!"
Before Luo De could finish, the White Wolf widened its eyes and refused.
It tried to get up excitedly, but was stopped by the pain in its neck, lying back down and solemnly reiterated,
"No one is allowed to have any ideas about my fur!"
