Abyssal Dragon

Chapter 44 044. Multi-Ethnic Talks
"Barbecue? What kind of barbecue?"

Odd stared blankly at Lina, and it took a while to react,

"You mean, you've been grilling meat all night?"

"And peeling, dicing, salting, and roasting... a lot of work, a busy night..."

"And then?" Wen Lan couldn't help asking.

"What then?"

"Besides these? Nothing else?"

"Master Dirsas eats too much, and the barbecue is enough for me. How can I have time to do other things..."

Lina replied weakly, as for what Dirsas said about the Thorn Tribe, she buried it in her heart.

"No, the barbecue is fine!"

Odd breathed a sigh of relief, with a long-lost smile on his face, "There is nothing better than barbecue!"

"By the way, Master Dirsas mentioned a seasoning called 'cumin'. He said that without cumin, the grilled meat still tastes bad."

Lina then described the "cumin" mentioned by Dirsas to the two, and asked, "Father, Aunt Wenlan, have you seen it?".

The two shook their heads in unison.

Wen Lan is the high priest, and Odd is the patriarch. Both of them have to work on the affairs of their respective clans, so they don't have the time to pay attention to things like seasoning.

"Okay, pass on the order tomorrow so that everyone has time to go out and look for it together."

Wen Lan said to Lina: "You have a good rest first, I'll have someone prepare something for you."

After she finished speaking, she got up and gave some instructions to the two guards, and then waved to Ode.

The latter also reacted, glanced at his daughter and followed Wen Lan to a distance.

……

"I thought I'd never see them again."

In the woods, Ode sat on the ground leaning on the tree trunk, looked at the moon in the sky, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Only now did his heart completely let go.

"I didn't expect it to be just barbecue, it seems that I am too..."

"narrow,"

Wen Lan suddenly spoke up, with a serious expression on his face, and said, "We are all too narrow-minded, and we think of Mr. Dirsas too simply.

Now I'm sure Lord Dirsas is nothing like a demon, he feels like a tyrant, but sometimes he's like a wise man... It's complicated. "

"As you told me today, it's impossible to guess."

Odd sighed, with a bit of pain on his face, for a moment he thought of Alice and his own stupidity during the day.

Wen Lan seemed to see what Ode was thinking, and warned solemnly: "This time, Alice will block everything for you, but if there is another time, you will all die."

"There will never be a next time." Odd replied firmly.

He knew very well that the "you" Wen Lan was referring to was the entire Thorn Tribe.

Odd now basically concluded that if he made any outrageous actions, then Wen Lan would be the first to stand up and destroy him.

"It's good to know."

Wen Lan frowned slightly, with a glint of anger in his eyes, and ordered: "Next, arrange your clansmen as soon as possible, and then carry out the mission of Lord Dirsas."

Conquering the Thorn Tribe was just the beginning. The Verdant Mountains and the tribes that were not forest elves had no close relationship with Wenlan, and that was the most difficult thing to deal with.

"of course."

Aode, who kept his daughter, was very satisfied. He stood up and said: "Tomorrow, I will gather the clansmen when I meet the tribe. 300 people are waiting for dispatch at any time."

"War is the last resort. Now I still hope to let them join Lord Dirsas's command through peaceful means."

Wen Lan looked a little dignified, and couldn't help but glared at Ode again.

She decided to arrange everything properly this time, and she must not make mistakes like Alice again.

"First send someone to send a letter to several nearby tribes, telling them that the Canglu and Thorn tribes are looking for them to discuss the future of Cangcui."

……

……

In a few days, the fence of the Canglu Tribe was almost built. Wen Lan took his assistants to prepare a plant growth potion and water it under the thorns of the ancient tree, so that the life of this plant could be revived.

But this can only repair part of the scars of the ancient tree thorns, the lost vitality needs to be replenished little by little, and it cannot be over-generated.

In order to facilitate scheduling, Wen Lan and Ord negotiated to move the gathering place of the Thorn tribe to the vicinity of the Dragon Cave, which involved the question of whether the two tribes should live together.

If the Thorn Tribe really settled in the gathering place of the Canglu Tribe, then it would not only be repaired, but expanded.

But according to Dirsas' order, the Thorn Tribe is now a subsidiary of the Canglu Tribe, and if they live together, it will only speed up the demise of the Thorn Tribe.

It is very typical that men and women who form a partner between two tribes must join the Canglu tribe regardless of gender, and the surname of the child born will only be Canglu.

As the patriarch of the Thorn Tribe, Ode didn't want this, so he was still discussing with Wen Lan.

But these are not important matters. Wen Lan and Odd had a discussion and put it aside for the time being without reaching an agreement.

The most important thing now is how to smoothly plan the remaining tribes under the wings of Dirsas.

……

……

In the past few days, Wen Lan sent letters to three tribes, the Bloodstone, Dragonscale and Red Feather tribes.

These three tribes are the closest, and they are all tribes within the territory of the Glaucoma Glima.

And on the day agreed to discuss, all three tribes arrived as promised.

It's not that Wen Lan has a high reputation in the Canglu Mountains, but the content of her letter compelled people from these three tribes to come—she will lure the demon Glimma, the demon, and her subordinates The number of demons is all written in the letter.

At the same time, she also mentioned two other demon commanders nearby. If you want to know more detailed information, then they must come.

That's why these three tribes came to the meeting obediently, and they all sent authoritative figures such as patriarchs or high priests.

……

In the largest wooden house in the center of the Canglu tribe's gathering place, six people were sitting upright.

Wen Lan sat at the front of the long table, next to Ord and Lina of the Thorn tribe, and opposite them were the rulers of the other three tribes.

"Okay, High Priest Wenlan, all three of our tribes are here, should you tell us the rest of the letter?"

The person who spoke was the patriarch of the Bloodstone Tribe, Gurunde.

He has a hyena-like head and is covered with brown hair. Although he is hunchbacked, he is not much shorter than Wen Lan, about 1.8 meters—but this does not affect his ugliness and wretchedness.

Gurunde is a wolf man, and the Bloodstone tribe is naturally also a wolf man tribe.

Gurunde's eyes were very dishonest, and he kept walking on Wen Lan's body while talking, as if he wanted to see through Wen Lan.

Although Wen Lan hated Gulunde very much in his heart, his face did not fluctuate, and he said calmly,
"The rest of the content is that the glamor demon Ganlima has been killed, and the other two demon commanders are the demon-born Kavin and the Brezu demon Gadada.

The news of Ganlima's death will spread out soon, and the other two demon commanders will step in here soon. Their strength is no weaker than Ganlima, so we need to prepare in advance. "

"You killed a glabra?"

Grund leaned on the back of the chair, the ugly dog's face was full of disdain, and he said with a sneer: "The three of you can kill the glabra?

Not to mention whether you have the strength or not, even if the Glauber is not your opponent, it can still escape from your hands. "

Defeating and killing are two concepts. The tenacious vitality of a demon is very difficult to kill it, especially if it is only a glabra.

The rulers of the other two tribes did not speak, but it could be seen from their expressions that they were also disbelieving.

Wen Lan smiled, and did not directly refute Gurunde, but said indifferently: "The abyss has invaded, demons are raging, and the whole world is howling, but we can only hide in the deep mountains.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with that in order to survive. "

As she spoke, Wen Lan put away her smile, and her face became serious.

"However, regardless of whether the demon commander will come or not, we all know that hiding here is not a long-term solution. One day, the demons will invade the Verdant Mountains and turn this place into an abyss.

I have sent scouts to investigate. Outside the valley to the west of the Verdant Mountain Range, it has been completely corrupted by demons. The trees are withered and yellow, the land is pitch black, and demons are everywhere. "

Wen Lan's words made the Dragon Scale and the Red Feather tribal rulers heave a long sigh.

But Grund, who was leaning on the back of the chair, didn't care, playing with the dagger casually in his hand,

"We all know what you said, there is no need to talk nonsense, the crux of the problem is what can you do?

The previous alliance of 10,000+ soldiers was defeated, and the remaining ones add up to only a few thousand people. Wouldn't it be death to go out and fight the devil? "

"I mean……"

Just as Wen Lan was about to speak, Asuna, the high priest of the Red Feather Tribe, suddenly spoke,
"Maybe we can find allies."

Asuna looked like a woman from a certain savage tribe, she exuded a wild aura from top to bottom, and the ragged rags she wore couldn't hide her plump and muscular body at all.

But she is not human, because she has a pair of wings behind her, and a pair of claw-like feet on her lower body.

If you look closely, you will find that her arms, neck, shoulders and some joints have eagle-like feathers.
She is a harpy.

"The wild boar and the troll empire blocked the expansion of the demon army, maybe we can try to cooperate with them?"

"They blocked the demon army?"

Grund, the patriarch of the gnolls, glanced at Asuna, and retorted unceremoniously: "If the dragons hadn't destroyed those portals and made the demon army lose its supplies, would those idiots be able to stop the demon army's footsteps? ?!
Hehe, don't you understand?Unless all the demons in this world are killed, the demons will come again. "

"According to what you mean, then we have no way out?" Asuna asked back.

Grund sneered, "Of course, I think we should go directly to the devil."

"Isn't that giving them food!" Asuna couldn't help but stood up and reprimanded angrily.

Gurunde sat up straight, folded his arms around his chest, stared at Wen Lan and said, "According to High Priest Wen Lan, aren't we also waiting to die?"

These words caused the wooden house to fall into silence, and the eyes of Asuna and the chief of the Dragonscale Tribe finally fell on Wen Lan.
