The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 301 A Lesson in Adulthood

The journey back home was smooth and uneventful, except for the snake-men who were as tenacious and numerous as ants in the desert, and appeared in front of the team without mercy, causing some trouble.

There were no major changes in Green Lake Village because of Allen's two months away. However, on the second day after Allen's return, many Green Lake villagers gathered at the Peak Square and surrounded a huge square. Transparent.

As the number of people in the village increases, the square that was originally large enough to accommodate the entire clan is now almost unable to accommodate people. Even Allen and several people involved today can only stand on the balcony of the stone castle in the north of the square and look at them. All the tribesmen present announced the topic of today’s discussion.

"This time, it was discovered that the bugbear Lacey, the hobgoblin Hanji, the dwarf goblin Angel, Xi Wei, and Margaery had done evil things and embezzled the public property of my tribe, totaling 155 gold coins and 37 silver coins. Lacey , do you admit this fact?"

Allen stood on the balcony, mustered up all his strength, and with the help of the amplification technique using a scroll, he announced to the more than a thousand tribesmen below what had happened to the five goblins who were tied up next to him. If it weren't for the purpose of sounding a warning to the tribe, Allen wouldn't have had to escort Lacey and the others back to the village all the way. He would have left them in the desert like Wo Lian and turned them into nutrients for the earth.

At this time, Allen's face was solemn and a little heavy. The clan's corruption had made him in a bad mood. In addition, it would not be easy for anyone to execute these bastards right now in front of everyone.

"Yes, we did those things."

Lacey's face turned pale green, and even her lower body was trembling. Faced with Allen's stern questioning, she nodded with difficulty without making any excuses.

"Clan leader!! I was wrong, I won't dare to do it next time!!!"

"Clan leader, please spare me this time!!"

Among the other goblins, Hanji was still relatively stable. At this time, he was by Lacey's side. The two of them occasionally glanced at each other with comfort and intimacy in their eyes, cherishing every moment in front of them. And the three dwarfs, who had long known what kind of scene they were going to face next, fell to their knees in front of all the tribesmen, wailing and pleading sadly. Allen’s forgiveness and tolerance.

"Now that they have admitted their mistakes, they have to pay the price! This is the most serious incident that has ever happened to our tribe. It must be severely punished and must not be treated lightly."

"I want you to know that there are some wrong things that you cannot do, and there are some mistakes that will kill you!!!"

"So, I have decided to execute Lacey and Hanji. Do you all have any opinions?"

"No!!"

"Kill them!!"

"Yes, kill them!!!"

It was obvious that some tribesmen were agitated below. The money that the guy who was tied up on the balcony was greedy for was money that belonged to every Green Lake Villager present. Although everyone is still a little unfamiliar with the concept of money. After all, these metals cannot be exchanged for anything good in the Green Plains. However, it is the nature of an intelligent race to be selfish, greedy, and unwilling to suffer losses. The other party has usurped what is originally everyone's interests. , doesn’t that prove that you have suffered a loss?

There are others who think more clearly, and naturally understand the purpose of Allen's actions at this time, and they also support it. Even those goblins who had only a little knowledge and whose minds were still in a blur, under the influence of the commotion of the crowd, all agreed, at least it can bring some flavor to this boring life!

As long as the person being killed is not you, it doesn't matter!

The indifferent humanity of the wilderness natives is evident.

"Since everyone agrees, I declare that Lacey, Hanji, Angel, Xi Wei, and Margery will be executed today and will be executed immediately!!!"

"Wow!!!"

"it is good!!!"

"Spare my life!!"

"Clan leader, please let me go this time!!"

Various mixed sounds reached Allen's ears, but Allen ignored them. He just glanced at the stone castle room behind him, where dozens of teenagers from the Green Field tribe were standing solemnly. The leader was Shi Sheng. , Tom and other outstanding young people from the clan.

At this time, each of them held a sharp dagger with cold light in their hands. Although their expressions were solemn, their eyes were filled with uncertainty and uncertainty. Compared with the older generation like Allen who have experienced all kinds of fighting, annexation and other wilderness survival rules, Kerr and the others, who are basically the new generation who grew up and lived in the village, are more interested in the five criminals in front of them. The clan members who made the mistake would be the most intolerable.

Since childhood, under Allen's careful teaching, everyone has a strong sense of responsibility and bond with the tribe and people. They see the efforts of these adults in their eyes and remember them in their hearts. The green-skinned natives in the wilderness and remote places at any time, but in fact But it has some human ethics in the civilized world, because Allen needs this to unite everyone's hearts and make the tribe stronger step by step.

However, the disadvantage of doing so is also not small, that is, the teenagers are a little less vicious and indifferent, which is considered an anomaly among the natives of Mansha Wilderness. At this time, everyone is naturally living very comfortably under Allen's care, but when they embark on their own path in the future, they may die because of it, which is not what Allen wants to see.

Leonard's incident has sounded a wake-up call to Allen. Although he does not think that what he is doing is completely wrong, there are indeed many things that make Kerr and the new generation of teenagers lose. He learned a lot about the means and character of surviving in the wilderness.

Fortunately, it's not too late to wake up.

"You guys, pick up the daggers in your hands, one of you will step forward to choose a target, cut off a piece of flesh no less than 2 inches from the target, and insert a knife into the target. The wound must be more than 1 inch below the blade."

The teenagers below were holding daggers in their hands. After hearing Allen's expressionless request, they were all in an uproar. When they looked at Allen, they seemed to be praying and refusing, but they were all rejected by Allen with a cold and serious expression. The eyes were stared back, and no one dared to speak.

"Tom, you come first!!!"

Allen pointed his big hand at Tom, the dwarf gnome at the front of the queue. He saw Tom's little face that was almost crying struggling for a while, and then he moved forward feebly. The distance of just a few meters was like a chasm. Long and arduous.

The teenagers selected by Allen this time are all young people in the clan who are over 16 and no more than 22 years old. Most of these teenagers grew up in the village and are a little bit disrespectful to the elders Lacey and Xiwei. They are no strangers, and some people have even breastfed in Lacey's arms.

Seeing the desperate and pleading expressions on Lacey's and others' faces, the dagger in Tom's hand was so heavy that it became very difficult for him to lift it up. Even though Tom himself was already a level 7 warrior and a highly anticipated talent among the dwarf tribesmen, after hesitating for a long time, Tom didn't know where to stab his dagger.

In the square below, there was a group of goblin adults. Some started shouting and yelling, hating that Tom was not doing things neatly. There were even elders close to Tom among them. These people, who were usually very kind in front of Tom, now had a cold and crazy look in their eyes, as if the five erring tribesmen on the balcony were no longer their tribe.

The trembling hand moved downward little by little, and Tom finally chose to attack Hanji, the hobgoblin. This hobgoblin didn't stay in the village for a long time, and then went to Thornburg. Among the people who made mistakes, Tom had the best relationship with him. cold.

"Ah~~~~"

Before Hanji could scream, the dagger was trembling on Hanji's body. Tom, who was holding on to the handle with both hands, screamed. He watched the dagger pierce Hanji's arm, peeling off a piece of green flesh bit by bit. When he came out, Hanji's eyes were full of pain, but he endured it forcefully.

Before the execution, Patriarch Allen had already talked to Lacey and Hanji. Although they did make mistakes and must be punished, their children were innocent, and Allen promised them that they would let their children grow up healthily. , free from any abuse.

Just for this promise, Hanji and Lacey decided to bravely accept their mistakes and face their own death. However, although he had been mentally prepared for this for a long time, when he saw death approaching, Han Ji couldn't help but feel weak in his heart, and almost became incontinent on the spot.

The other dwarfs were even more unbearable. They whined and cursed endlessly, and rolled randomly on the ground, trying to break free from the ropes.

"Humph!!"

Allen snorted coldly, and the soldiers guarding the five tribesmen stepped forward, blocked their lips and tongues, and tied them with ropes to the stone piles erected on the balcony.

After Tom waved his hand and stabbed Han Ji's muscular butt gently, he completely lost all strength. He held on to the railing on the balcony. It took him a long time to regain his strength, and cut Han Ji's body with the dagger hanging. The meat that came off returned to Allen, looking at Allen pitifully.

"Okay, let's go in and wait!!"

Allen's eyes were cold and showed no emotion, and then he pointed the next person forward.

Before Tom even stepped out of the balcony, his spirit almost collapsed. Crystal tears fell from the corners of his eyes. At this time, his heart was filled with complaints about Allen. Why should he face him? In response to such a cruel scene, his hands were stained with the blood of his once close clan members.

On the balcony, every young man who was asked by Allen to cut flesh and stab people felt heavy and miserable. No one could hold on when they came down.

"Teacher, I want to come first!!"

There were several companions in front of Ker's queue, but when the little sister Irene was about to be called, she raised her hand first, breaking the silence in the stone castle.

Allen's eyes glanced over, and his cold eyes pierced through Kerr's defense, making Kerr almost use up all her strength to resist the pressure on Ellen. At the same time, her bright eyes never flinched, nor did she dodge when she looked directly into Allen's eyes.

"it is good!"

Suddenly, when everyone thought that Allen would not agree, Allen's tone suddenly softened, he nodded calmly, and then let Kerr walk out of the queue and move forward.

When Kerr first started walking forward, her steps were somewhat hesitant, but with each step forward, her steps became more determined. By the time she reached Lacey and the others, Kerr had already packed up. All kinds of weak emotions.

"Aunt Lacey, I'm sorry!"

There was apology in Kerr's eyes, and she bent forward to apologize to Lacey.

Then, when Kerr straightened up again, one of her right hands was already raised high, and then she raised the knife and dropped it. The sharp dagger stabbed directly into Lacey's chest without any movement to pull back the entire dagger. It was inserted along the gap between the ribs.

"what!!"

Not only the young man in the stone castle who paid attention to Kou'er's movements had shocked eyes, but even the Green Field tribesmen who were spectators below all exclaimed in surprise.

"Pfft~~"

When she pulled out the knife again, there was a muffled sound from Lacey's chest. Her body, which had been shaking all of a sudden, softened, her head tilted, and feces and urine flowed out uncontrollably from underneath her body.

"Shua~~"

At this time, when Kerr cut another piece of flesh from Lacey's body, Lacey was completely unconscious and felt no pain at all.

"Teacher, I have completed the task!"

Although Kerr looked very calm at this time, she handed the dagger with green blood on her hand and a piece of flesh with hair to Allen.

"...Well, let's go down."

Allen didn't feel any shame in killing Kerr because of her pain. He still nodded expressionlessly and let Kerr leave.

Kerr did not leave, but stood behind Allen, holding back the surging emotions in her heart, and quietly watched the team of dozens of people carrying out Allen's mission.

When she saw Allen ordering people to untie the lifeless Lacey from the stone pillar and carry her down, Kerr's expression changed, and she became worried about Irene who was about to appear again.

To Kerr's expectation, although Irene's body movements were no longer as crisp and calm as usual when executing Allen's orders, she still managed to send away the short boy with a knife in the end with trembling and deformed movements. Goblin Margaery did the same thing as Cole.

Among the teenagers who followed, few could do the cruel and painful actions of Kerr and Irene, and they still fulfilled Allen's request without causing too much damage to the remaining three elders.

It wasn't until Shi Sheng, Shu Sheng and another hobgoblin boy Anxi stepped forward to take the lives of the remaining three tribesmen that the punishment ceremony for Lacey and the other tribesmen who were greedy for ink finally came to an end.

"You all remember this!!!"

"If I find any of you bastards or bastards who are not loyal to the tribe and violate the interests of the tribe in the future, I will use their blood to repay the debt they owe!!"

After the five prisoners were taught the law one by one, Allen spoke again. His fierce and cold words, coupled with the blood of his tribe that had not dried up between the stone pillars on the balcony, this scene finally made the people of the Green Field tribe below regain their sense of awe. Their hearts looked at Allen's somewhat thin body on the high platform in silence and fear.

The crowds in the square gradually dispersed, and Allen actually felt a little empty inside. However, it was not the time for him to relax yet. Next, he had an important lesson to teach the new generation of his clan.

"Today's lesson is my adult gift to you!!"

"In the civilized world outside, those young people who have entered adulthood and are about to shoulder the burden of their families will use dances and other forms to bid farewell to their virginity. And I will use the survival rules of the wilderness to tell you a story. reason."

"Put away your unnecessary kindness. The greatest kindness to those who have no hope of survival is to allow them to die cleanly!!"

"Those of you who think you are helping the tribesmen just breathe a few breaths and let them survive for a while are actually not helping them, but making them wait for death in pain and suffering!!"

"In the wilderness, death is never the most terrifying thing, but waiting desperately for death is the most painful thing." Allen's expression was as calm and cold as ever, but the words he spoke were like tangible things, which hit the young man directly. The softest place in their hearts, the scene that had not been forgotten from their minds just now, came back to their hearts, and many people suddenly choked up.

"But, but..."

Tom felt a little dissatisfied. As the smartest boy among teenagers, he really couldn't figure out why the teacher would let everyone face all this so cruelly.

"There is no but, the wilderness has always been so cruel!! In the future, when the people around you have no hope of survival, remember to give them a happy life!"

"When facing your enemy, don't be soft-hearted. As long as the opponent still holds up his weapon to fight you, don't stop your attack until the moment he dies!"

"Don't forgive those who betray you lightly, those who harm you and the tribe!!"

"..."

"Remember what I say now and carve it into your brains. Now that you are adults, the future of the Green Field Tribe will depend on you!! Every choice and decision you make will ultimately bring consequences to the tribe. profound impact!!"

After Allen's earnest speech, the teenagers walked out of the stone castle with various emotions and looks. Today's experience may take them all a long time to get over the shock. In the end, Alan could not predict whether or how much everyone would learn from this unique course.

After all the teenagers had left, Hua She, Philip and other senior members of the clan, who had been watching the whole scene, sat down at the ironwood table with Allen with various complicated expressions.

"Am I being a little too cruel by doing this?"

Allen's cold face suddenly melted, becoming a little more melancholy, and his expression became a little depressed.

After all, they are the children he has watched grow up. Among them, Shi Sheng and Kerr are his students. If you say you don't feel sorry for their experiences, it would be a lie. No matter how strong a person is, they have an emotional side, and Allen does the same. No exception.

"What's cruel?? In fact, you should have let go and let these bastards go out on their own!"

Flower Snake seemed to have less mood swings than Allen. Even if his adopted daughter Kerr was among them, he felt that today's lesson was full of wilderness characteristics. I think back then, when they were competing for food with the bone-fire jackals and bone-crushing dog heads in the Green Field Plains, what they faced was even more cruel than this group of young people.

Others did not speak. Philip was now accustomed to the survival concepts of the wilderness. Although these concepts were not recognized in the civilized world, in this lawless wilderness, if you want to survive, you must make some changes after all.

After sitting for a long time without saying anything, everyone was in a restless mood. Finally, driven by Allen, they left one after another, leaving Allen alone, silently in a daze in his stone castle for a long time.

The matter came to an end, and Green Lake Village returned to peace, but with a lot less laughter. Usually in the morning when the teenagers are practicing martial arts in the square, there are many sounds of laughter floating around. Now, although the teenagers' exercise in the morning has not been interrupted every day, the little faces every time they glance across the balcony of Allen's stone castle, He moved away involuntarily, as if what happened a few days ago had just passed.

However, Allen was not in the village at this time. He knew that the teenagers might have various negative emotions when they saw him, so he simply took Linus, a bastard, into the wilderness and prepared to Toughen up this bastard.

Linus, this little guy, has not yet recovered from the fear of killing someone with his own hands. Now when he sees Allen, there is an indescribable feeling in his eyes, and then he runs away from Allen as if he is running away. Alan couldn't bring back his sight no matter how much he shouted.

There was no other way. In order to untie Linus's knot, Allen took time out and forcefully took Linus and the two of them on a wilderness cruise.

"Eat something!"

Allen took out a piece of barbecue from the dimensional bag and handed it to Linus, who was listless and with his head hanging down.

"……I'm not hungry."

A large part of what Linus learned in the Druid School was to let them feel the breath of nature wholeheartedly and appreciate the subtle emotions exuded by various creatures in nature. Coupled with the rules and laws that have been formed in the Elf Kingdom of Thornburg for tens of thousands of years, Linus, a boy in the wilderness, has too many ethical and moral constraints, so he feels guilty and guilty for killing someone for no reason. Guilt and other emotions.

However, what he didn't know was that Allen just couldn't stand the aura exuding from him, which made him lose the attitude towards life that a wilderness goblin should have.

A few days ago, the lesson Allen taught Kerr and the others was too direct and cruel, so Allen did not let Linus, a 14-year-old little guy, participate in it, otherwise Linus would have been killed long ago. Already mentally broken.

"Aren't you hungry? You have to kill a few prey yourself and take them back later, otherwise you will be hungry today and tomorrow!"

Allen's big eyes widened, and Linus was so frightened that he quickly reached out and took the barbecue.

"Our village never raises waste, especially someone like you, who also carries an oil bottle!!"

The joke is about Linus's pet Noob, who became the favorite of the children in the village as soon as he came back. He was made very comfortable by being taken care of, much more comfortable than Linus.

"But the teachers at the school said that we druids will not harm living beings easily, as that would destroy the balance of nature!!"

Linus still argued with reason, perhaps because Allen forced him to kill, which inspired the boy's rebellious psychology. Although he was clearly afraid of Allen, the patriarch, he could not bear to speak to Allen every time. He can't help but talk back to Allen.

"Get out of here!!"

Allen's backhand was like a headband, tapping Linus' little head lightly, making the boy roll his eyes.

"If you don't harm living creatures, then you will starve to death??? If you don't hunt, if your little guy doesn't tear you up and eat you for food, then there will be undead!!"

"You should let you little bastard meet with the demons and talk some sense into them."

The two of them just quarreled while walking slowly northeast along the Zhuoshui River in the wilderness. Now, the animal resources are relatively abundant near the shore of the Zhuoshui River.

"Shhh!!!"

Allen smelled a smell of blood on the tip of his nose, coming from near the bushes to the east. After making a soft gesture of silence, he slowly slipped over there to check, leaving Linus hiding alone. In a blind spot. Soon, Allen came back. He had already investigated the situation in front of him, and looked at Linus with a bit of uncertainty in his eyes.

"Come on, your chance is here today!!"

Allen chuckled, took advantage of Linus's opportunity to move forward, grabbed his trousers, and used a clever move to throw Linus out. When he fell, he hit him more than ten meters away. In the bushes, Linus himself didn't have any pain on his body except for the shock.

"Ah~~~"

Linus couldn't take precautions and flew in the air for a while with a long broken sound. When he landed on the ground, his little heart was still pounding. He was so angry that he got up and wanted to complain about Allen.

"Ow!!!"

"Bah!!"

Suddenly, several frightened animals roared and threatened from behind. Linus no longer cared about trouble with Allen. He turned around and looked back, and the color on his face changed.

In front of him, four wild coyotes were eating a grass sheep. Linus, who was determined to be a Druid of the Claw, was naturally very worried about what the beasts would do if they were interrupted. clear.

Linus was careful not to make any big movements, and softly chanted a spell in his mouth. He almost mispronounced the syllables a few times in his nervousness, but fortunately, the low-level magic of calming animals at the end slowly came into his hands. forming. Just when Linus was about to raise his hand and throw the magic to the four hyenas in front of him, an inappropriate voice came from behind.

"I just want to see how you can coexist peacefully with these guys and see if they understand what you mean, hey hey hey!"

Allen was watching the fun and didn't think it was a big deal. While sarcastic, a stone he picked up from the ground flew towards him like an arrow and hit one of the coyotes directly. Linus's body was exactly the same as Linus's magical animal-pacifying magic, which was applied to the coyote's body with his front and rear feet.

The effect of the magic had just taken effect, and the fierce and alert look in the coyote's eyes was fading away, but the pain caused by Allen's stone hitting the body returned to the coyote again. In fact, under the influence of this stone, the four hyenas successively made attacking postures, lowered their bodies and pounced forward, biting towards the neck of Linus, who was less than 4 meters tall.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems these guys don't want to live in peace with you!"

A few hyenas, together with their combined combat power, are not enough to threaten a level 7 warrior. Linus is also a spellcaster after all, so in Allen's opinion there should be no danger.

Even if there is any danger, with Allen watching from the side, he can rescue Linus when his life is threatened.

"What you are experiencing now is exactly what Kerr, Irene and other brothers and sisters who grew up with you have endured for a long time. We, the goblins of the Green Field Tribe, have to deal with these beasts every day to obtain the fruits that allow us to survive. Food that goes down.”

"In the Castle of Thorns, no matter how your teachers taught you before, in the wilderness, what I teach you now is the natural balance of the wilderness!!"

Linus was in a very embarrassed state. While dodging the coyote's attacks, he had to concentrate his energy and perform magical spells one after another. The shrubs and vines on the ground, under the influence of Linus's magic, became his helpers, blocking and delaying the hyena's attack.

When Linus finally worked hard to cast a magic spell on a bush next door, the bush slowly stretched its branches, and then suddenly uprooted the roots in the soil, causing a series of changes. After being entangled, it transformed into a tree man about the size of a hyena, staggered towards Linus, and started fighting alongside him.

With the addition of the tree man, Linus's battle became relatively easier. Although the tree man's movements were a bit slow, every time he whipped the coyote, the barbs on his body turned into vine whips, as if with a Any liquid that stimulates the sense of pain can often make the coyote howl, and make the next move more cautious.

"SU...DU..."

Another divine spell took shape, directly covering the heads of the four hyenas. Coupled with the tone from Linus's mouth, the movements of several hyenas became sluggish for a while, and their eyes became dull.

Just when Linus was feeling relaxed, suddenly the cunning eyes of two of the hyenas flashed away, and they suddenly accelerated to bypass the tree man's defense and pounced directly on Linus.

"what!!"

A coyote bit directly into the leather armor covering Linus's arm. The sharp teeth penetrated deeply into the leather armor. The pain caused Linus's arm to pause when waving spells. At the same time that the current magical spell failed, Linus Nas couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.

The other coyote stepped on the arched back of its companion, and jumped up immediately with the help of strength. A smelly smell came from the air. Linus felt his eyes go dark, and when he wanted to raise his hands to protect his face, he He found that the coyote on his arm had not let go, and in the end he could only watch the other coyote's ferocious teeth getting closer and closer, and the warm and putrid breath hit his face.

"What a waste!!"

Allen's voice suddenly came from his ears. After a puff, the howling sound of a coyote suddenly stopped. Linus felt a warm and smelly liquid flow down from his cheeks, dripping on his body and legs. between.

"boom!!"

The other coyote hanging on Linus's arm was directly kicked by Allen and flew into the air. When it landed again, it squirmed. When he wanted to stand up, he couldn't do it. The wolf howled. Wails.

"roll!!!"

Allen's strong and restrained aura escaped from his body. The other two coyotes, who had just been slow to react under Linus's animal stun technique and briefly gave up their attack, were stimulated to stand upside down and complete the bow shape, but they could no longer No attack was made. The powerful intuition of animals made them understand that the tall humanoid creature that had been watching them hunt goblins was far beyond the reach of these two little hyenas.

While vigilantly letting out threatening roars, the two hyenas slowly backed up until they thought they were out of Allen's attack range, then turned around and fled into the wilderness with their tails between their legs.

Linus, who felt the threat of death at the side, was collecting the blood on his body in embarrassment. The tree man transformed into a bush next to him also took root in the wilderness again after the casting time. However, the originally lush and dense leaves suddenly disappeared. Following this intense movement, the leaves became much sparser, and the leaves and branches looked weak, as if they had been exposed to the sun for several days.

Allen walked up to the coyote that was dying but still struggling. He ignored the opponent's intimidating gestures of showing his ferocious teeth and punched the opponent's Tianling Cap, thus ending its hasty life.

"Clap!"

Allen tossed it casually, and the limp coyote carcass flew towards Linus, and was piled together with the other coyote carcass that he had decapitated.

"These two hyenas are your harvest today!"

"However, don't think that these two coyotes can have many pounds of meat. If you don't hunt a goat before night, you will still be hungry when you go back!!"

Allen looked stern, and was very dissatisfied with Linus's previous battle. It was obvious that Linus had other magical skills that he had not used, but in the end he was almost killed by four hyenas. This was not true for Allen. It seems completely unqualified.

"Remember, the balance of nature is never to harm living creatures, but to follow the laws of natural survival, the weak and the strong, but not killing without reason!!!"

Next, Linus's hard life will probably continue for a while!
