The mysterious aliens have a clear identity. They are Kovinsuomi, a part of a group of Finns that have a weak sense of existence, but do exist.

The leader called himself "Woimakashad", which meant "a heavy rain".

From this name alone, Rurik estimated that when this guy was born, it must have rained heavily.

The leader showed a strong stubborn attitude, showing a flattering smile from time to time, as if the people lying in the snow were not his people who died in battle.

To be honest, Rurik was a bit disgusted with the surrender, and the instant pug gesture disgusted the victor.

Now that he knew the identity of his opponent, Rurik even hoped that this guy would make another resistance, so that his subordinates had ample reasons to kill him.

Maybe this person is still useful?

Rurik motioned to Jeflo to untie the twine that had bound the leader's hands.

Jeflo was taken aback: "Master, let go of his restraints, and he ran away."

"Then let him escape." Rurik dismissed the crossbowman with his fingers under his hand, "I can kill him with just one arrow. It's like shooting a snow hare easily."

The twine was loosened, and this Woimakashad had no intention of fleeing.

Because of the battle just now, he not only realized the terrifying military might of the Varangans, but also realized that these madmen still had deadly weapons, and his men died inexplicably.

But as he got deep into Varanga's group, he also understood that the so-called mysterious weapon that can be easily killed is essentially a bow.

Another point is that a group of brawny men, and even southern Suomi (Fin) fighters, nodded and bowed to a little boy, which he felt incredible.

Unchained, this guy tried his best to get closer to Rurik.

This action made Yevlo instinctively vigilant, with a sword in his hand, determined to protect the safety of his master.

"Oh, my new owner, I am one of your hounds. I am the most loyal."

"Speech!" Yevlo scolded angrily.

"What did he say?" Rurik asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a sign of loyalty."

Rurik heard the man continue to yell, and asked, "What did this guy say?"

"Master, he is asking, are you commanding the normal battle?"

Rurik climbed up the snow **** with a steel sword. He impatiently ordered casually: "Tell him, I am in charge. Yelov, let him shut up."

"Yes."

Jeflo didn't tie the captive's hands anymore, but tied his mouth with a rope. He ordered some mercenaries to wind the crossbow, so-called he could execute this unbelievable fellow anytime and anywhere.

Compared to the mess on the hill, Rurik had the only prisoner on hand.

Otto at the top of the mountain blamed himself for not restraining his subordinates well, and not a single prisoner was left behind. But the subordinates were not attacking the slaves controlled by aliens. The slaves were trembling in the cold wind of the hills, at least, they could still tremble.

As for the dead aliens, in a short period of time, they were blown into ice lumps by the cold wind from the Arctic.

A low-headed warrior ascended the hill, and the sun cut through the clear air, reflecting the dazzling light on the bronze guard on his leather helmet.

Rurik’s victory did not make Otto wait long, and he was happy to see his son ascend the hill as a victor.

Otto greeted several brothers and followed him to greet Rurik. He was a warrior at first, and then asked: "Have you completely won? Is anyone injured."

After the battle, Rurik unexpectedly did not have the joy of being a winner.

He was still a little excited in his heart, and replied with a blank face: "We are fine. I basically killed all the enemies with arrows."

"Huh? Is this true?" Otto was taken aback.

"It's true, now there are enemy corpses everywhere on the hillside. Now, only one enemy is captured." After that, Rurik gave a wink, and poor Woimakashad was escorted.

Evlo even kicked the prisoner, causing the man to kneel on the ground.

Otto looked at this guy and couldn't help recalling: "I just saw a guy with a strange hat running away. Maybe it was this guy."

"Yes. This person did wear a hat when I decided to shoot him."

"What a coward." Otto suddenly raised his steel sword with both hands and chopped it down.

However, Otto stopped at the moment when Jianfeng almost pressed the captive's neck, and in return, Woima Kashad's loud begging for mercy.

"What a coward. It's just such a coward who captured a group of deer breeders?" After talking to himself, Otto did not forget to spit.

In Otto's eyes, the deer breeders themselves are a group of cowards, and they are natural people who can be oppressed. In other words, the deer breeders and the reindeer they raise are the same for the Ross people.

Those people are natural and tamable, and Otto doesn't have much contempt for them.

However, the guys who ran away on the hills, they clearly collapsed at the touch of a touch, they could actually capture and enslave the deer-raiser?

With the appearance of a prisoner, Otto quickly figured out the whole situation.

Now, this Woimakashad, who was kneeling on the snowy ground with his hands tied up, began to tell his story to the leader of the Rus among the Varangans.

It turned out that in the autumn of last year, a Corvin hunting team expedition to the north, after the first snow fell, dragged their sleigh away from their stronghold. There were originally fifty people in this branch of literati, but because of a sudden snowfall, five people were frozen to death overnight due to the failure of warming up in the wild overnight.

For them, winter hunting is for huge wealth and also faces high risks. After all, it was not themselves who died. The survivors sighed that the deceased was "life if taken away by the Snow God", and then determined to continue northward.

They came on the basis of the precious furs from the north, so the Ross people searched their hill camp and also seized more than two hundred ferret and fox skins!

Even more than ten deerskins.

So in a very short time, Otto completed the distribution of all the leather seized. For example, those warriors with the blood of the enemy on their swords and axes can reasonably take advantage of them. Those who had never drank blood with swords had to allocate some cheap loot.

This group of Corvins did not completely hunt a group of ferrets personally. During the expedition and hunting journey, they attacked a clan settlement of deer breeders.

In the battle, three people of Kewen died, and the deer-raiser settlement was completely defeated.

After more than a dozen people drove most of the domestic reindeer to flee, the remaining group was controlled.

Just like the attitude of the Ross people towards the deer breeders, the Kewen people also felt that these weak people in the north were a kind of natural slaves.

The hunting trip had unexpected gains. This Cowen expedition, escorting the captives, decided to return home with a large amount of trophies.

They walked along the frozen river and found a unique hill on the flat forest snow field.

As the boss Woimakashad has a strong hunch, he feels that there is a mysterious power in this hill.

Sure enough, the Kewen expedition was surprised to find that the hill was a huge mine.

Otto and Liurik heard this person's narrative, and they were a little surprised that their group had an adventure with the deer breeder.

Hearing about the discovery of the mine by the Corvin, Otto still felt shocked.

Kneeling Woimakashad said with regret: "We ordered the deer breeder to mine for us. We wanted to dig some ore and bring it back to make iron. Unexpectedly, you showed up."

"You still have iron tools? But I see your weapons have a lot of stone spears. Even the arrows are made of bones." Otto said disdainfully.

After Yevlo translated the original words, Woimakashad hooked up the humble head of the weak.

For Rurik, the discovery of a huge open-pit mine was completely in his expectation.

The short day was about to end, and taking advantage of the afterglow of the evening, the Rus had to build another camp.

This time, the Rus set the camp under the hill and lit a bonfire under the cover of the forest.

Because of the Ross people, they would not stupidly light a large number of bonfires on the top of the hill.

Although the Ruths are not afraid of any enemies, they are worried that the abrupt and dazzling fire will scare away potential prey.

Because of Lumia's relationship, the current Rurik's attitude towards the group of captive deer breeders is quite kind.

Prior to Rurik, Lumia was already pacifying her kin, and asked about the identity of these deer breeders.

Unexpectedly, after going back and forth, Lumia actually asked the other party's details.

Lumia hurried to Rurik, who was eating meat around the campfire, and said urgently: "Rurik, I have understood the identities of those people."

"Is it your relative?" Otto, who sat aside and also nibbled the roasted snow rabbit, asked disapprovingly.

Just because of this question, Lumia's expression instantly became firm.

She turned to Otto and said, "Big Chief, they are indeed my relatives."

"Huh? Your relatives?!" Otto pulled his beard and asked, "Do you still have relatives? Your people were taken by God last winter, and the Great God left you alone to my son. As a servant, why do you have relatives?!"

"It's true." Lumia's attitude was so determined that Otto was even more suspicious.

Otto thought for a moment, and grinned reluctantly: "I think it's just that you intend to shelter them? You are hoping that I will treat them well."

Lumia knelt down immediately and pleaded: "Big Chief, I really hope you don't hurt them. They are willing to be slaves."

Otto shook his head and motioned: "You shouldn't beg me. Remember, your master is not me."

Lumia suddenly realized.

Rurik grabbed the braid behind Lumia's head, just like driving the reins of a pony, pulling her to her side.

Looking at her eyes, Rurik said seriously: "Lumia, do you remember our agreement? I will be the leader of all the deer breeders. Your kinsmen will now be blessed by me."

For a moment, the girl cried with sore nose.

Lu Mia's rhetoric really aroused Rurik's idea, I am afraid the girl has not lied from the beginning.

"Are they really your relatives?"

After wiping her tears, she said solemnly: "They are really my own person. You may not know, Rurik. As a deer breeder, we can list all the relatives ten generations ago with our fingers. I found out that their leader is brothers to my grandfather five generations ago."

The barbecue in Rurik's hand almost fell to the floor.

This is out of five servers, can you still be regarded as relatives? Perhaps, in the concept of deer breeders, all deer breeders are a family.

Rurik ate the barbecue three times, then stood up and summoned his mercenaries, especially Yevlo.

He took Lumia's hand, "Let's go, look at your people."

At this moment, Otto did give all the captured deer breeders "preferential treatment."

The so-called preferential treatment naturally does not harm their personal safety, and also rewards this large group of guys with warm clothes and even sackcloth for setting up tents at night.

Otto ordered to give them a little food, but did not give more. He really didn't know that these guys could be as acquainted as Lumia, because Otto did not tie their hands and feet with twine, but only sent a few of his men to ask to stare at them.

All the deer breeders gathered together, and because they had negotiated with Lumia, the fear in everyone's heart was eliminated a lot.

Rurik came at a haughty pace, and saw a large group of people in ragged clothes and relatively short stature sitting together, and casually asked in the language of the deer breeder: "Who is the leader among you?"

The deer breeders on the scene were all excited by the smell.

Lumia shouted immediately; "Uncle Alska, stand up! He is my master and a good person."

After a while, a low-rise middle-aged man crawled out of the crowd.

In the dim light of the campfire, Rurik looked at this special-looking man.

Through the face of this person, Rurik clearly saw the shadow of an Asian, even more like an Asian than Lumia.

Yes, the ancestors of this group of deer breeders migrated from Siberia. In this era, they have not yet mixed with much European ancestry.

Because of this, the height of the deer breeder is not as high as that of the Finns.

Over the years, Rurik has seen all the strong men of the Rus tribe, and now he has seen adult men among the deer breeders, who are like a group of hobbits.

Because of their small size, clumsy weapons, and sparse population, with these three points, they naturally become a sad existence.

Rurik had already talked with his father, and he got his father's authorization, so-called he was in control of the power of life and death of these deer breeders.

kindness? of course!

Rurik continued to command in the language of the deer breeder: "All the men of you, stand up."

Nine low-lying deer-raiser men approached the leader named Alsaka and waited for Rurik's new words.

"Everyone, women, and children, all stand up. Just like your men, stand in a ball."

The men and women of the deer breeders were divided into two groups, and Rurik was proud to see all of them.

The deer breeder Alsaka's beard trembled unconsciously, and he was shocked that a Ruth boy could understand the language of his own people. He finally couldn't hold back, and asked everyone's most urgent need: "You...you, can you keep our lives?"

"Are you afraid of death?" Rurik asked deliberately.

"My lord, if a man is destined to die, I also ask you to keep the lives of our women and children."

After hearing this, Rurik had a little admiration for these men.

Rurik deliberately said: "Why do you mean death? If we were to kill you, you would have died. Listen, now you all kneel down! Be my servant, and I will guarantee the safety of all of you."

For the time being, they are indifferent...

As soon as Lumia saw the situation, she became anxious on the spot, she shouted: "Hurry up and kneel down! Master Rurik will protect everyone's safety! He is the greatest saint, yours...your Sa full!"

It can be said that from Lapland to Magadan, Northern Europe and North Asia, which span 10,000 kilometers, the term "shaman" is commonly used by North Asian ethnic groups.

"You... will you be our shaman?" Alsaka asked cautiously in shock.

Rurik reacted accordingly: "Yes. I am your shaman, even if I am a Ross, I am also your shaman. This is destiny!"

When things reached this point, Arsaka, the deer breeder, knelt down with all the clansmen and swore an oath to Rurik as servants.

However, in the eyes of the deer-raiser, this magical child who speaks the language of the deer-raiser who will surely become the leader of the Rose tribe of the Varanga is his new shaman.

Usually the shaman is held by the old grandmother of the clan. The shaman is the witch doctor and the decision maker of the clan.

In their eyes, Rurik has become his leader.

The appearance of their surrender is really satisfying. Originally, Rurik felt that he still needed a bit of tough measures to force them to surrender completely. Great use.

"You all get up!"

With an order, these deer breeders all stood up.

In order to show his kindness, Rurik took off his sword, took Lumia's hand and led him to stand among all the deer breeders. He gathered these new servants into a circle towards him.

"Now, I am the shaman you can trust, and you are my people. You must show loyalty to me. The betrayers will be killed, and the loyal will always be protected by the Ross people."

The leader Alsaka felt that this was a great favor, and he also felt that things were not that simple.

"Shaman, what can we do for you?"

"Bring me deer~www.novelhall.com~This is the job of all of you!" Rurik said firmly.

"However, our deer herd was lost. The remaining deer were killed by the Kewen people."

"Don't worry, you will be heading to the territory of our Ross people soon. I have raised some reindeer there, but I am suffering from a professional deer breeder. I ask you, if you let you raise some other livestock, such as cattle and sheep, you can ?"

"Yes! Absolutely."

"Very good. From now on, you will never have to worry about safety anymore. Do things for me in the future and I can protect the safety of all of you."

The leader Alsaka felt that he was blessed by the gods, and a saint rescued everyone, and his future life seemed to be full of light.

For Rurik, the appearance of these deer breeders is an unexpected surprise. There are indeed very few reindeer on hand, but their group of professional deer breeders may be able to reproduce the deer very well. Not only is it possible to raise deer, but it is also possible to raise sheep and cattle.

In this way, Lumia can be freed from the work of raising deer and become the most obedient high priest.
