The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 369 Spread
  On the edge of the Tagan Desert in the north, a small team was slowly moving forward.

The leader was an ugly troll with a slightly stooped body. His withered face, against the background of the dust, added some signs of old age and decay.

Homer, a paladin walking on the path of a servant of God, had already entered the legendary realm. However, due to the death of the god he served, he fell from the legendary level, so now he looks like Extraordinarily old and decayed.

But fortunately, the fall of the legendary level is much better than the fall of the middle and high-level professions. At least the physical and spiritual breakthroughs of the legendary powerhouse are not so simple to obtain by relying only on the so-called divine gifts. Behind the scenes are the legendary strong men’s self-awareness and physical training.

Although he was affected immediately and suffered severe mental and willpower damage, Homel is confident that he will be able to regain his lost strength in a short time.

Of course, what caused him the most heartache and discomfort at this time was the death of his father-god, Silvanus, whom he devoted most of his life to and devoutly believed in. Until now, he could not completely calm down.

Immediately after the death of Father God, the elf garrison of Thorn Castle surrounded the Nature Temple in the inner city and drove them away with a strong attitude. In order to support the war in the south, a large number of manpower and materials were dispatched. Now, in the end, It's the weak Temple Church of Thornthorn.

Although these elves did not use military force until the end, their attitude and methods at that time were still firmly remembered by Homer.

"Sooner or later, I will make the elves pay the due price for everything they have done!!"

The elf's betrayal was so fast that Homel, the only person in charge of the Oak Temple of Thorn Castle after Beslmair left, didn't have much chance to react. Especially after he fell from the legendary level and reached the peak of high level, he had to be driven out of Thorn Castle by the elves in humiliation because he did not have strong strength to support him.

Along with Homer and others, they were expelled from the Castle of Thorns, as well as the Ranger Goddess, the Goddess of Peace and other natural temple gods. Although this caused protests from a large number of elf believers in the Thorn Castle, after all, the elf pantheon This is the choice of the vast majority of the people in the kingdom. These few elf believers can hardly make any waves.

What worries Homir even more is that the Elf Kingdom suddenly expelled the preachers of the Temple of Nature in their kingdom. So what the Elf Kingdom will do next will have to make people think deeply! !
  After being expelled from the Castle of Thorns this time, Homer did not go south along the safe trade route in the wilderness with other allies of the Natural Gods. Instead, he went directly through the wilderness, leading a group of temple elites, with the intention of going south in the nearest future. The oak believer tribe established a stronghold to keep an eye on the elves' movements in the north.

The kobolds and dragons of the Thunder Tribe are mixed together. At this time, the Oak Church, which is greatly weakened, wants to settle here. Even if it wants to, it does not have the strength. It is better to leave this important place to the Ranger Goddess and Mother Earth and their evangelists. .

As for the tribe that the Oak Church is most confident of persuading, after all calculations, it is really only the Green Field Tribe, an emerging tribe, that is most suitable for the Oak Church to establish a stronghold.

Even though the father of the oak tree has died and it is too late for the church to protect itself, the loyal believers who are immersed in their bones and inherit the will of Silvanus have still not forgotten their mission. They must devote their lives to the balance of nature. At least for this time, they are in charge of the oak tree. This is the choice of His Majesty the Pontiff of the Church.

"After passing through this desert, we arrived at the Green Field Plain. There used to be a kobold tribe on the edge of the desert, but now it has also been wiped out by the goblins of the Green Field Tribe."

The person who walked in front and led the way for Homer was also an acquaintance of Allen, Clay, the chief priest of the Oak Temple of Thornburg. Although he was born as an elf, he was loyal to the new cultivator and Clay still followed the church south.

Clay was no stranger to Allen's Green Field Plain. He had been to the Green Field Plain several times before when he went out for travel and exercise, so he was quite qualified as a guide.

The team is not large, only about 20 people, but this is the most elite team left in the Oak Temple in Thorn Castle. Not only did Homer himself suffer a sharp decrease in strength, but many people in the team also suffered such a blow, such as Clay himself. But fortunately, Clay himself, as an elf, has decent spellcasting talent, and the elf's long lifespan gives him more time to polish his strength and magical skills. On the contrary, he is the least affected priest in the team.

"Huh…………"

In the southern sky, two figures came quickly and caught the eyes of Homer and Clay.

"Be careful and get ready for a fight!!!"

Although they were in the wilderness, the situation at this time was strange and no one could relax at all. After Homel and the others discovered the two flying figures, they immediately began to call the surrounding team members to prepare for battle, although they knew clearly that If the two flying figures really wanted to attack them, I'm afraid they would probably be in trouble.

Oscar came to pick up his group. This was something that had been agreed upon earlier, but Homir and the others figured out that there would be another legend who would follow Oscar to pick them up.

In Mansha City, there is a greater need for temple powerhouses to be in charge, especially after several junior legendaries in the temple have dropped their ranks, leaving the Oak Church's legendary powerhouses somewhat scarce. And it is foreseeable that there will be fewer and fewer legendary powerhouses in the Oak Church in the future. At this time, it is impossible for the church to send two legends for a mere team of more than 20 people.

"Homir, it's me!!"

In the distance, Oscar's voice came, and then the figures of him and Allen slowly landed on the ground. Only then did Homer and the others feel relieved.

"Alan, have you broken through to legend???"

No one else spoke yet, but Clay Priest Manchester United, who was closer to Allen, was surprised and looked at Allen with a hint of envy.

"Well, yes."

Allen smiled proudly, then bowed to say hello to Homer.

In Green Lake Village, after Allen heard what happened to the Oak Temple in Castle Thorn, he felt somewhat sympathetic towards the Oak Temple.

"congratulation!!"

After receiving Allen's affirmative reply, Clay couldn't hide the envious look in his eyes.

Thinking back to 20 years ago, when Allen, a bugbear, came to the Oak Temple to seek spiritual sustenance, the first person he came into contact with was Clay himself.

At that time, Allen was just a young man who had just become an intermediate warrior, while Clay had already entered the intermediate level for many years; now 20 years have passed, and this young goblin has transformed into a strong man in the Feynman world. One of them, looking back at himself, is only a high-level one, and the gap between them is really huge.

On the other side, Homir exchanged eyes with Oscar. After receiving a calm and powerful response from the other party, he looked back with relief and greeted Alan warmly.

"I didn't expect that that ignorant young boy back then has surpassed me now and is walking in front of me!!"

Homer's rare hearty smile added a bit of color to his withered face. A month ago, he might have been able to surpass his elders in front of Allen, but now that he has lost his legend, he has become better than Allen. A weaker existence, it is really difficult for him to show his identity in front of Allen in a short period of time. After all, what the wilderness tribe values ​​most is not other people's status, but his strength.

"Without your cultivation and help, adults, I wouldn't have achieved what I have achieved now, right?"

Allen smiled modestly, turned around and walked in front of the team, taking the initiative to act as a guide.

Allen had already heard from Oscar about the reason why Homer and others came. Before, he had thought that Oscar was just talking about building a church in the village, and it was just a matter of sending a few priests to preach in the village. But later, after Oscar talked about the Castle of Thorns and some arrangements for the future temple, Allen realized that the size of the church mentioned by the other party was larger than he had imagined.

The Oak Temple has set up a church in Green Lake. In addition to stabilizing the growing Greenfield tribe and attracting them to continue to believe in the Oak Father, it also has the important task of monitoring the movements of the Elf Kingdom in the north. This will inevitably leave an elite temple in the village. members, it is very likely that Homer and others present are the main members.

This will have a huge impact on Green Lake Village. That is, as the authority of the divine authority gradually takes root in the hearts of the people, it will shake the status of Alan, the patriarch, in the village, and make the village gradually become a vassal of the church? ?

This is a very real problem, and the reason why Allen was able to think of these immediately was thanks to the fact that he often asked Philip to understand the operation of civilized society. In the human kingdoms, the contest between royal power and divine power is no longer a secret. I think Philip, as a small knight aristocrat in the human kingdom, would also be involved in the choice between these two powers.

Of course, this matter will not have much impact in a short period of time. Allen believes that as long as he is alert, there will be ways to contain it in the future. After all, the village was built by himself.

Moreover, it is not a bad thing for the Oak Church to intervene in the village. With the church members settling down in the village, the safety of the tribe will be guaranteed, and it will also free Allen from having to stay in the village all the time. .

As a new legend, Allen still has a long way to go. Now he has a huge problem in front of him, which is where to learn legendary expertise. A legend without legendary expertise can only be regarded as a pseudo-legendary strongman. When it comes to actual combat, he can only bully those warriors who are below legend level. When facing real legends, his skills are often sparse.

This was the biggest feeling Allen had when he sneak attacked the legend who attacked the village.

He obviously inflicted heavy damage on the opponent at the beginning, but the more he continued, his attacks became so weak. If the opponent's injuries hadn't been sustained, resulting in excessive blood loss, Ai might have continued to fight. Instead, Lun will be captured by the opponent.

Legendary specialties such as perfect physique, devastating blows, super rage, tearing blows, etc. Just from the descriptions of Masters Richard and Oscar, Allen could feel their huge power, but he couldn't find it. Now, almost two years have passed since he was promoted to Legend. Allen is only refining a few other common specialties in the Berserker inheritance, but his strength may not improve much. Therefore, if he wants to secure his seat as a legendary powerhouse, Allen needs to find and purchase the inheritance of legendary expertise. This is also the reason why many small and medium-sized tribes cannot retain legendary talents.

The inheritance of legendary expertise is more than double the value of ordinary advanced inheritance crystals, and the channels are also very limited. It is the most effective means for the Church of the Gods to attract legendary talents, and naturally it will not be easily circulated on the market.

Thanks to the successive waves of demons and demonic invasions, the Temple of Nature and the Mansha Alliance had to use generous inducements to attract legendary powerhouses to serve them. However, the number of legendary expertise crystals in circulation in the past few years has never exceeded 50, and every task related to legendary expertise is extremely difficult. In the end, even if someone or force is lucky enough to complete it, most of the 113 members of the alliance will do it. Profit.

Like Allen, he took his tribe out for several years, but the contribution points and merits he gained in the end could not even be exchanged for a legendary expertise crystal, which shows the scarcity of this expertise crystal.

Now the Oak Church is in decline, in order to stabilize the legend in the church. As well as attracting other powerful people to join, the Oak Church will inevitably use its savings over the years, among which the legendary crystal is the most tempting thing.

And Allen's tribe can now be favored by the church, and with his own ability to be promoted to legend, if the other party doesn't take the opportunity to win over Allen, Allen will think that these people in power are fools.

This is the most certain way that Allen can think of to obtain the legendary crystal.

At the same time, the Oak Church built a church in the village and placed personnel, which invisibly provided a layer of security for the Green Field tribe. As long as there are people from the church in the village, the forces behind the legendary figures who previously attacked the village will need to carefully consider the price of continuing to deal with the Green Field Tribe.

Even though the gods served by the Oak Church are now sleeping, and many powerful members of the church have been killed, injured, and demoted, it is the church's weakest period. However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. As the core god of the natural god system, , even though the Father of Oak has fallen, his allies and two daughters are still his staunch supporters. Who in the wilderness dares to take such a big risk and turn against the Oak Church! !

With this oak church in the village, Allen can also free up his hands and feet, go out and travel, slowly collect legendary inheritance, instead of just spending time in the village like now.

Various thoughts were swirling in Allen's mind. The arrival of the Oak Temple had its own advantages and disadvantages for the village and him. However, from the current and long-term perspective, Allen felt that this was a thing that had more advantages than disadvantages. It could even be said that A win-win move.

After thinking about this, Allen didn't have too many entanglements, and his efforts to settle Homel and his party, who had arrived unexpectedly in the first place, became faster.

Anyway, there are still many stubborn goblin slaves in the village who have not been recruited, so they can take advantage of the opportunity of building a church for Homer and others to hammer it out.

At the same time, Allen also took this opportunity to send some smart young people aged 13-4 in the village to Homir and the others, and let them learn all kinds of knowledge from these priests that they could not usually learn. .

The location of the church was not built on a hilltop in the village as high as Allen Stone Castle, but in a residential area outside the village that was gradually getting more popular.

The residential area outside the village was originally intended to house the gourmets who traveled thousands of miles to Green Lake Village in search of delicious food, as well as a place for business. After years of operation, there are two larger inns in this settlement, next to a tavern and a blacksmith shop, and at most there are 3-4 restaurants, which are all industries of the village.

However, there have been major changes in Feynman's world recently, so tourists and businessmen are gradually becoming rarer. Several restaurants and inns are still operating desperately, which just in time frees up an open space for Homer and the others to build a church.

The reason why the church was not built on the top of the most conspicuous hill in the village was because Allen was a little careful. He was reminding Oscar and the others in disguise that he, Allen, was still the leader of the tribe, not outsiders like them. .

"The physical constitution of our wilderness race is actually not bad, but we have a lot of problems and are naturally lax!!"

The church was built very quickly, and the village has put a lot of effort into building construction over the years. From building Green Lake Village brick by brick to rebuilding the village after experiencing damage several times, it was a great opportunity to learn civil engineering again and again.

Looking at a hobgoblin or bugbear slave with his arms swung and working hard in the hot sun without any clothes, leaving stains of sweat all over his body, Homer's eyes were blurred.

The general outline of the church has been completed, and now all that's left is the process of capping it, and then installing the window sills, door frames, and various furniture, and it's almost ready for move-in. It didn't take much time to complete this building, just over 2 months. Allen paid for the most valuable free labor in the wilderness, as well as the pieces of rough stone everywhere, but in exchange for It is a more scientific and reasonable construction technology knowledge.

Moreover, in order to prevent the interior of the large church from being too dark, Clay also took the goblin boy Alan arranged for them to collect white stone sand by the river, built several kilns and began to refine glass. , which added another craft to the village, which showed that Allen was very foresight.

"By the way, there seems to be some business in your village over at Castle of Thorns, right?"

Homer seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned around to ask Allen.

Allen was proud that the village had an extra craft, and when he was thinking about what he could do with this craft, he was brought back to his senses by Homer's words. Hearing the content of the other party's inquiry, he was still a little happy. The son then fell down sadly.

"Yeah, I've been worried about things in Thorn Castle lately, so when you guys came, I sent someone to Thorn Castle to see what was going on."

The sudden change of the elves of Thorn Castle must not have been a temporary act, otherwise it would not have happened. Shortly after the death of the Father Oak, the garrison of the Elf Kingdom expelled the forces of the natural god system from the kingdom.

These days, Allen often communicates with Oscar and Homer. They are interested in Allen. They are also willing to analyze many things that are not so secret to Allen, so that he can understand the death of the Oak Father. Behind the scenes, there are countless pairs of black hands working together, and the final result will inevitably be turmoil in Feynman's world and crisis in the wilderness.

If the Elf Kingdom really wants to take action against the wilderness or the dwarves next door, then their next move will definitely be bigger, and it goes without saying that they will block trade.

Castle of Thorns has always been important to the Greenfield Tribe, because it is their tribe's most important source of income and a collection place for living supplies. Living supplies are okay. After all, the people of the Green Field Tribe are people who are used to hardship. They came here like this when they didn't have much contact with foreign tribes in the past. It is not difficult to persist for some time and reopen the collection area.

But in terms of financial resources, the village had just sent a team of people headed by Roberta to go south, preparing to go to Mansha City to establish the business of their 'Ellen' pasta restaurant. I'm afraid there won't be much craftsmanship in a short period of time. It consumes a lot of the funds you brought with you to make the initial investment.

And if trade in Thornburg is cut off, then the village's source of income may be cut off for a long time.

Thinking about the relationship that was finally established with the illegal slave-catching team, if there is not enough funds to pay the other party, then I am afraid that the population growth in the village will be brought back to its original shape.

Half a year ago, Aligon's slave-catching group sent another group of slaves, but this group of slaves was even larger, with more than 400 hobgoblins and bugbears, which increased the number of fighting bloodlines in the village. Quite a few. As a result, Allen paid a price of more than 2600 gold coins. In addition to what he earned and brought back from the Castle of Thorns, Allen also used some of the money he had accumulated before.

According to the verbal agreement between the two parties, the time for the next transaction is not far away.

If this incident at Thornburg really affects the village's business, then after the next transaction, Allen will have to temporarily give up cooperation with Aligon.

"I think it's better to make preparations as soon as possible. I guess your business won't be completed for the time being,"

Homer's eyes were clear and he thought of Allen's suggestion.

"Ugh!!"

Allen sighed sadly, it was too difficult to run a tribe.

Swish! !

A huge eagle flew past the sky, casting a long shadow in the sky. Allen and Homer almost raised their heads, squinting their eyes and scanning upward.

"it's me!!"

A familiar human voice came out of the giant eagle's mouth, and then the giant eagle emits a burst of misty light, transforming into Oscar's figure and slowly descending.

"The Mansa City Council has issued a convening order. Allen, I'm afraid you have to go to Mansa City now!!!"

Oscar was dusty and said solemnly to Allen with a solemn expression.

"........."
