Chapter 901 Young Eagle
As soon as they left, everyone quickly arrived at the breeding room of the palace.
While still standing outside the door, Locke was already uncontrollably excited.
Zhou Xu did not hesitate and directly signaled the breeder to open the door.
The door of this breeding room is usually locked, and there are two doors inside and outside, mainly to prevent the chicks who have not yet received training from flying out and never coming back.
After all, unlike when they were bare, after being raised for a period of time, the chicks' eyes have opened and their down feathers have fully grown.
Although they do not yet have normal flying capabilities at this stage, and can only flap twice at most, they already have the basic conditions to run away from home.
At this stage, there are only four chicks of the giant eagle, and they do not dare to take this risk.
Passing through the two doors of the breeding room, Zhou Xu quickly saw the figures of the four chicks, who were now able to stand on the birdstand and play.
At the same time, it also shows a bit of the posture of a young eagle, but it looks a little sloppy.
"Is this the baby bird of the giant eagle?"
Lock looked at them with excitement.
Facing this strange stranger, the four eaglets in the breeding room quickly flapped their wings and ran away. The giant eagles that were still in the eagle stage did not have the majesty and domineering power of adults at all. to death.
But it’s normal to think about it. The four young eagles are only about the size of a palm. In the eyes of the young eagles, they are all giants. It’s okay to feel scared.
But this made Locke very worried.
"Your Majesty, can you please let me confirm it carefully?"
Locke does not have the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets' and cannot see the panels of the four young eagles, but the wood elves naturally have a special method of identification. .
But at this moment, the four young eagles were jumping up and down, making it impossible for him to take a closer look.
In response, Zhou Xu made a move and signaled the breeder to catch a young eagle.
These four young eagles have been cared for by breeders from the day they hatched. They were relatively close to the breeders and were quickly caught.
After taking the eaglet, Locke looked at it carefully and compared it one by one with the records in the ancient scrolls.
"Yes, that's right! This is the giant eagle! All the characteristics match!"
In fact, Locke has never seen the giant eagle with his own eyes.
I just learned from the elders’ stories that when his grandfather was a child, the clan had tamed giant eagles. Then something seemed to have happened and the giant eagles all flew away and disappeared without a trace.
As of Locke's generation, apart from hearing a few mentions from their elders about the Giant Eagle and the Giant Eagle Knight, they can only learn a thing or two from the ancient scrolls passed down from the clan.
At this moment, looking at the young eagle in his hand, Locke's eyes were full of enthusiasm.
But Locke was not stupid. He quickly remembered that these four eaglets now belonged to Zhou Xu.
At this thought, Locke's eyes quickly fell on Zhou Xu, and after a slight hesitation, he slowly spoke...
"I wonder how your Majesty plans to arrange these four eaglets?"
"Then naturally prepare to cultivate them well, and then let them breed more giant eagles. In the future, we may even be able to form an army of giant eagle knights."
What Zhou Xu said now was indeed his true thoughts.
Four young eagles, to put it bluntly, are four flying units.
Rather than letting them go to the battlefield, it is better to keep them for breeding and expand the size of the group in the future. By then, the value of an entire army of Giant Eagle Knights will not be comparable to that of four Giant Eagle Knights. .
Zhou Xu’s idea was not wrong, but it made Locke even more embarrassed. Obviously, according to Locke's idea, he wanted to bring these four eaglets back to the village for cultivation.
But he was not a fool. From what Zhou Xu said just now, he could tell that the other party had no intention of giving him the four eaglets.
If Zhou Xu couldn't see Locke's thoughts, then he must be blind.
In fact, John had thought of this possibility as early as when he asked John to go to Locke to ask about this matter.
But so what? The four young eagles are now in his hands, and according to the current situation of the wood elves, how can it be possible to break up with him because of these four young eagles?
"Clan Chief, you have also seen it. I wonder if the Clan Chief is willing to help me and teach me how to cultivate and train this giant eagle?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Xu quickly added another sentence.
"Of course, I will not let you, the patriarch, suffer. In exchange, I will give you a generous reward, the patriarch."
As Zhou Xu spoke, he stretched out his hand Three fingers.
"Thirty thousand silver coins, how about it?"
After all, this is just a method. In the future, the cultivation and training of giant eagles will still have to be funded by their own money. The price must be There is no way to compare with existing mines.
Thirty thousand silver coins is already a sky-high price.
At the same time, considering that the deposits of the Wood Elf Village should have basically bottomed out at this stage, this transaction should be quite tempting for Locke.
Thirty thousand silver coins are enough for them to continue to support themselves in the village.
Locke had to admit that his heart was a little moved, but as the leader of the clan, he still valued these four young eagles, or the inheritance of their wood elf clan, more than thirty thousand silver coins!
“I cannot accept these 30,000 silver coins. Please make a condition for me to bring these four eaglets back to the village.”
Needless to say, Locke chose to face him shamelessly at this moment.
But Zhou Xu really doesn’t like this.
“I really don’t have any conditions that I can think of at the moment.”
Zhou Xu’s words were relatively tactful.
To put it bluntly, after the younger generation of wood elves have become official citizens of their great Zhou Dynasty, there is basically nothing about the wood elves that worries him.
Even if there were, it wouldn't be worth using his future air force to exchange for it.
Loke is not stupid, so he naturally understands the meaning of his words. For a moment, his expression became cloudy and uncertain.
Zhou Xu, who saw this, thought about it and spoke again...
"The patriarch actually does not need to be so entangled. Now John and the others are already our official citizens of Great Zhou. Well, we, the Great Zhou, have cultivated and trained this giant eagle, and then it will be handed over to you wood elves to ride on?”
Zhou Xu’s words actually made Locke’s face look a little better. point.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case.
The main reason is that he also saw that it was already impossible to take away the four eaglets from the His Majesty in front of him.
Under this premise, he certainly did not want to have a dispute with Da Zhou.
If this giant eagle is nurtured and trained in the future, it is still handed over to their wood elf knights for riding, he will not be unable to accept it.
Even considering it from this perspective, Da Zhou successfully tamed the giant eagle and will form a giant eagle knight army in the future. As an important part of the giant eagle knights, the status of their wood elves in Da Zhou is also A rising tide lifts all boats...
