The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 414 Suspicion
  He didn't stay long after attacking the battlefield, and after casually cleaning up the loot, Allen hurried back to the quarry. He was worried that something had happened in the quarry. It wasn't until half a day later that he saw the densely packed mountains of stone bricks, the wider and flatter gaps, and the tribesmen who were diligently wielding tools to cut mountains and rocks, Allen's somewhat worried heart finally calmed down.

"Has there been any trouble at the quarry lately?"

The current owner of the quarry is Linus, who has no hope of being promoted to a high level. He has entered middle age, has a family and a business, and has given birth to several dwarf cubs. He is much calmer than before.

Walking on the path of a druid, Linus learned a lot of useful knowledge and broadened his horizons. Therefore, the seemingly busy and trivial quarry is now in his hands, but it is managed in an orderly manner. Reassuring Alan.

It's a pity that Linus's spellcasting talent itself is not very good. In addition, he acted frivolously in his early years, which delayed his rapid growth period in his youth. Therefore, when he was not as good as middle-aged, he has been stuck in level 12. On the threshold of the peak level, life and death cannot break through the threshold of the high level. Seeing that there is no hope for career advancement in this life.

Even the rising stars in the town, several of whom have chosen the path of druids, have surpassed Linus. This made him even more impatient. Finally, under the influence of shame and other emotions, he turned to Shisheng. He offered to work as a manager in the tribe's stronghold to avoid the new people growing up in the town.

"No."

Linus did not dare to ignore Allen. Although Allen rarely appeared in the clan nowadays, his various legendary deeds in the past have become the favorite stories of the new generation of the tribe when they were young. Everyone loved it. Full of admiration for him.

"Well, be careful lately!"

Allen nodded slightly. He knew very well that if the intermediate legendary thief he was fighting really wanted to attack Linus and the others, they might not be able to stop him.

"Ok."

After inspecting the quarry, we found that the wide gap in the mountains had extended for more than ten miles. Zongheng could not see the existence of the foothills at a glance. This was considered the result of the huge investment of the tribe over the years, but the distance was completely excavated. A pass is still far away!

On the other side of the quarry and Green Lake Town, because the stone materials could not be piled up, the clan specially allocated some manpower and resources to build a wide driveway that connected the two places, enough to accommodate three or four carriages traveling side by side.

Most of the tribe members hold a conservative attitude towards the excavation of the mountains to the west. In fact, the continuous excavation is very expensive and consumes countless powerful labor forces, which in turn reduces the daily production of the town such as farming and farming. There will always be some hard work.

Of course, the gains are not without success. If we look at the success rate of warriors in the clan, among the surrounding tribes that Allen and the others know, there is probably no one with a high overall success rate of warriors in Green Lake Town.

The ratio of low-level promotion to mid-level in a mature tribal training system is usually about ten to one. Ten low-level warriors can often train one mid-level combat professional; while the ratio of mid-level to high-level promotion is almost ten to one. In comparison, this means that a tribe needs almost a hundred qualified warriors to cultivate a high-level warrior. And often, the combat effectiveness of a high-level warrior may not be stronger than that of a hundred low-level warriors. After all, the number of people can often be used through formation, coordination, etc., to achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.

However, in the Green Field Tribe, with the continuous innovation of the magic dish series founded by Allen, and the continuous improvement of the training system, the chance of low-level warriors in the tribe advancing to the intermediate level has at least doubled, reaching five to one. Even a ratio of four to one. As for the intermediate-level advancement to high-level, due to the tribal welfare benefits that stimulate everyone's fighting spirit, as well as auxiliary means such as training in quarries and sharpening dishes, the success rate can barely be doubled, almost reaching five to one. Proportional.

This method of essentially improving the strength of the tribe has made the Green Field tribe's weight continue to become heavier in the hearts of the leaders of the surrounding tribes.

Now more than thirty years have passed, and the tribe's population has grown from just over 7 to a medium-sized tribe with a population of nearly 8. And if we look at the number of high-level warriors in the tribe, then the elite warriors their tribe has are almost equivalent to the total number of elites in a large tribe with a population of to . Such a rapidly developing tribe takes on a new look every day. How can it not make the powerful tribes around it feel a little wary?

When the population base reaches a certain limit, even if there is no outside population, the population growth can reach a certain scale just by relying on the births of the natives. Especially the leader of a tribe has always paid attention to the growth of the tribe's population and invested a lot of resources to encourage the tribe's reproduction. The number of reproduction will always be larger than that of small-scale human trade.

The Green Field Tribe no longer needs to engage in slave trade with outsiders. The number of children born every year alone is in the thousands. With the current size of the tribe, the number of children will probably increase again in less than ten years. Double the quantity. On the contrary, in the barren green plains, the problem of cultivated land gradually emerged. From the Zhuoshui River flowing northeast from Green Lake to Rapid Bay, an important food stronghold operated by the tribe, the land that can be cultivated along the coast has become fertile farmland.

The water flow of the Zhuoshui Creek that finally flows out of the Rapids Bay is not even close to the word "brook". The flow rate is only a few tenths of the past, forcing Shi Sheng and the others to build a dam more than ten meters high downstream of the Rapids Bay. Store water to alleviate the crisis of water surface sinking.

Even so, the newly opened land along the coast is gradually unable to meet the needs of the tribesmen who are accustomed to renting land after the land reform. Many young people of the new generation approach the town's land management office and request to rent land according to the terms and conditions. The management of the management office However, investors are no longer able to come up with sufficient land, forcing many young people to look for other business directions.

Vendors and groceries gradually became popular in the town, because young people temporarily did not have enough land to support their big appetites, so they could only sell various daily necessities in exchange for the rations they needed. After all, although the land in the town is beginning to be in short supply, the families who cultivated the land earlier have enough surplus food to exchange for needed materials to obtain a better quality of life.

The barter method naturally fell behind, so money transactions developed in the civilized world also began to become popular around Green Lake Town. This brought great convenience to Allen and their reforms.

After all, the preservation of food and materials requires certain conditions, but the preservation of money is relatively simple. As long as the stability of prices can be guaranteed, the tribesmen who have excess materials will eventually be willing to take away those excess materials in order to reduce trouble. Come out and exchange with other tribesmen.

After staying in the quarry for two days and confirming that there was no danger, Allen turned around and flew south, heading straight to Mansha City, where he occasionally stopped.

In the past few days, Allen's brain has been constantly thinking about who is more suspicious behind this attack. The assassins who attack Allen will not attack for no reason. After all, Allen is also a powerful legend, and he has the brilliant result of killing a legend in a fight of the same level. As long as he is not a fool, he will not easily provoke Ai. Lun.

Although it is impossible to track the assassins who attacked him, the forces behind hiring or entrusting these assassins to attack him must have substantial interests entangled with himself and the Green Field Tribe.

The biggest suspect must be the Snomi troll tribe more than two thousand miles to the southeast. In recent years, the "Ring of Thorns" small group initiated by Ajnaga's bloodline compatriots has relatively close cooperation and contact. The power of the Snowy tribe, which was extremely closely connected with the Church of Nature, was restricted to the north of the Cator Mountains. How could the ambitious leader of the Snowy tribe, Ariel, not feel resentful.

As the leader of the group, the Ajnaga tribe was naturally targeted by Snowmi's trolls. However, the hobgoblin leader Bilaire took strict precautions. While uniting the team members such as Amansha and Argan, he did not forget to follow Oak. The church complains and grievances. Even though the Natural Church has shown its leadership in the natural theology over the years, it is not easy to show an aggressive momentum towards the declining Oak Church.

After all, the Church of Nature, which is now rising strongly, and the god behind it, Obai, the God of Nature, also inherited most of the power of the Father of Oak, and are what they are today.

Unable to deal with the Ajinaga tribe, Snowmi could only change direction and seek other breakthroughs. The group of jackals in the cold wind hill in the north became a window for the Snowmi tribe to vent their anger. In the past few decades, The territory adjacent to the Snoimi tribe was constantly being encroached by trolls, and the friction between the two sides became more and more intense.

It wasn't until maggot, the leader of the jackals of the Crow's Claw tribe, saw that the stalemate was unfavorable, that he turned his head towards the embrace of the Church of Nature. In addition, the competition between the two major forces in Talon Continent gradually calmed down. With the help of the Church of Nature, the jackals turned to the Church of Nature. He made peace with the trolls, and in turn gained the strength to fight against the Ring of Thorns team.

The rivals in the north have become partners, so Ariel can only turn his expansion attention back to the south. In the past few years, they have continued to sow discord between several tribes in the Ring of Thorns, and at the same time they have not forgotten to suppress the weak. The Green Field Tribe and the Heart of Desolation Ogres.

Now that he was attacked, if the assassin really wanted to succeed, then the biggest beneficiaries would be the major forces adjacent to the Green Field Plain.

Although there has been some cooperation with Ajinaga's compatriots, Allen has never let go of his vigilance. The better the performance of the Green Field Tribe, the more interested it will be for the Ajinaga Tribe, which is constantly adjusting its direction and seeking development. If there is an opportunity to annex the more than 30,000 people of the Green Field Tribe and incorporate them into the population of their two major fortresses, the potential of the tribe and the quality of the army will be greatly improved.

Of course, Allen believes that the other party will not have such short-sighted ideas. After all, whether in the Ring of Thorns team or in the stalemate with the Snowmi tribe, what Ajinaga lacks most is not the middle and low-level ones. Not the number of soldiers at the bottom, but the number of absolutely strong men at the top.

As long as everyone is still in the camp of the natural god system, then there is basically no possibility of a large-scale military war between the two races. Instead, it will be a challenge and fight between the strong, which can not only compete for the winner, but also destroy and destroy. Accepted by the earth-walkers of the natural god system.

It is a pity that the great goblin Lena, who formed a goblin family with Allen, has not given birth to a child with Allen's blood. This makes the married Bilaire feel depressed, and it also makes Allen himself somewhat regretful. .

Perhaps, this is related to the change in the life essence of the legendary strongman, so even now there is no bloodline left to continue. However, because of this relationship, coupled with the combination of interests of Bilaire sharing profits to Allen Fortress, the covenant relationship between the two parties is very stable and cannot be shaken easily.

On the contrary, if the Snowmi tribe can eradicate Allen, it will not only weaken the strength of the Ring of Thorns team, but also shake the cornerstone of their alliance for interests.

In the eyes of the Ajinaga tribe, the Green Field Tribe without Allen is a piece of plump prey. They will not see the foundation laid by Allen fall apart. Instead, they will use the relationship of marriage to In one fell swoop, they annexed the goblin race with a population of more than 30,000.

In the eyes of other tribes, unless they are extremely talented fighting geniuses who are likely to be promoted to legends, they will try to win over them. Otherwise, generally speaking, they will not accept too many bloodlines from other races and attach themselves to their own forces. survive. The wilderness is not rich in survival resources. When a tribe develops to a certain scale, it becomes difficult for its own bloodline to survive. How can there be resources to support the vassals of other races? !

However, the Ajinaga tribe annexed the Green Field tribe. For the Ring of Thorns team, whose alliance foundation is not strong in the first place, it may be more likely to cause the foundation of cooperation to shake. No one wants to see their partners who are cooperating with them. A partner outside the forest annexed and strengthened himself.

Thinking from this point of view, the suspicion of the Snowmi tribe is indeed the greatest, but the suspicion of the Ajinaga tribe is also not small. Who can guarantee that Bilaire's shrewd hobgoblin is not accurate in his calculations? Would Lun and other partners speculate like this and do the opposite?

Of course, several other Alliance teammates in the Ring of Thorns are not without suspicion.

As mentioned before, with the rapid development of the Green Field Tribe, the potential displayed by their tribe is really shocking. Perhaps in a few decades, another genius will appear in the Green Field Tribe and be promoted to legend. Coupled with the speed of their population growth, the Green Field Tribe can basically achieve several major elements to become a large tribe.

Every additional large tribe is a big threat to the surrounding tribes. Although the Green Field Plain is barren and does not have much valuable output, the wealth underground is always unexpected. Maybe one day a goblin will What if you find an important and valuable resource as soon as you pick it up?
  Moreover, as long as the leaders of large tribes have some talent, their population expansion is not too slow. In the future, the scope of influence will naturally expand outwards. Having one more large tribe as a competitor is not a good thing in the long run.

So at this time, the Amansha and Argan tribes, who seemed to be friendly to Allen, might not be able to do this.

Therefore, Allen needs to go to Mansha City to find out the information from the Assassin's Guild and see if there is any chance to learn some clues from them.

The three assassins acted in a capable and decisive manner. When the situation turned against them, they immediately evacuated without delay. At first glance, they were typical professional assassins. Allen has received several tasks from the Assassin's Guild over the years, and he naturally knows what the other party does. Therefore, he has great confidence that the man behind the scenes must have suspended the task in a place similar to the Assassin's Guild and handed it over to The assassination was carried out by a professional assassin.
