The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 522 Curtain
  Bugbear Spark's heavy shield, which was as tall as a man's shoulder, slammed onto the ground. The flat ground trembled slightly, and then two or three heavy weapons hit his heavy shield directly, and he was struck by it. Using his shoulders and the support from the ground, he blocked it with all his strength.

On both sides behind him, two goblin rangers quickly threw spears without sharp spearheads in their hands, directly attacking the three opponents whose movement and vision were blocked by heavy shields.

At the same time, a vague aura was transmitted to the ground in front of the heavy shield. Countless vines suddenly sprouted from the originally solid ground, flailing left and right, looking for the nearest enemy in front of them.

Before the vines could fully demonstrate their power, a divine spell descended from the sky and immediately transformed this batch of magic into vines, turning them into nothingness again.

On the opposite side, the lowland spiritual officer, who was protected by a heavy-shield warrior, continued to recite his incantations with concentration on his face. Soon, a bear's tenacity magical spell just happened to cover a teammate in front whose magical effect had disappeared. The opponent became lively again and charged into the crowd.

…………

Although Allen did not host the competition, he still appeared at the competition scene with a high profile. He sat alone on the bearskin chair on the high platform specially built for him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the two teams of 24 goblin warriors below. The group fights among them.

On the lower left side of Allen's seat, Legolas was lying boredly on the armchair. Occasionally he raised his head, and a female hobgoblin thoughtfully gave him a mouthful of delicious food, fruit, or drinks.

On the lower right side of Allen's seat, Trick, the mayor of Green Lake Town, was sitting upright with a serious look on his face. He did not dare to relax and stare at the movements around him. Instead, he was not looking at the battle below as intently as Allen. .

This is the 23rd day of the Green Lake Competition, and it is also the last game for the team to compete for first place, so Allen invited Legolas to watch this game together.

In the previous 22 days, the top 20 players in the three stages of high school, high school and low level have been competed for. There were not many surprises. Basically, the warriors of the Green Field Tribe won the rewards of all events, that is, from Kolima Two dark elves from the village made it into the top ten high-level warriors, and an ogre from the Heart of Desolation tribe just made it into the th place.

The battle for the championship was very fierce at that time. Two goblin warriors almost lost one of them because of this ranking. Fortunately, Allen suddenly rushed out to stop it, otherwise the tribe would probably lose an excellent warrior.

There is no way. Even with all kinds of preparations for a fierce battle like a martial arts contest, the integrity of the contestants cannot be guaranteed. Suffering from blood and broken bones is a common occurrence. After the competition, there are special druids and priests who will be equipped with potions. and pharmacists’ treatment to make everyone worry-free as much as possible.

The tribal warriors and surrounding vassal warriors actively participated in the competition because they could rarely compete with various opponents to accumulate more practical experience and find their own talents with a certain degree of life guarantee. shortcomings, but also the chance to win exciting loot.

The soldiers benefited, but the losses were naturally the interests of the Green Field tribe. Just for the bandages, medicines and other materials used to treat the injured, the tribe would have spent more than 10,000 gold coins. Only the current Green Field Tribe could come up with such a huge amount of funds. The Green Field Tribe who used to huddle in Green Lake Town would definitely not be so generous.

But Allen didn't feel bad at all. The money was well spent. As long as it could make the tribe a little more enterprising and gain more experience, and at the same time screen out a group of talented people who could be made, then the money would be worth it. Not in vain.

Of course, it would be even better if one of these possible materials can one day find a seed that can find its own legendary path.

Next, for the list of 200 people for the Mansha City Tribal Competition, most of the names on it have been filled in. After the team competition is over, Allen and Trick will add the remaining names together, and it will be considered complete. List selection.

The war was very intense, and the spells in the hands of the casters on both sides were getting slower and slower. It must be that their own mana and spiritual power were lacking. And around the spellcasters on both sides, the well-matched warriors, sword dancers, and rangers of each other responded to each other and engaged in fierce fights. Every time there was a thrilling moment, the spectators who watched with gusto in the surrounding stands started to shout. There were bursts of noise and shouts.

The broad arena was a building built by Green Lake Town along with several academies. As the number of natives and adventurers of various races in Green Lake Town gradually increased, various challenges and duels also emerged one after another. If disputes arise between members of one's own tribe, they can be resolved and punished through the relationship between the mayor and the leader. However, for adventurers and natives from other tribes, as long as they do not break the rules of the Green Field Tribe, disputes will naturally be resolved according to the adventure rules. Act in the style of the world and the wilderness, and use duels to solve problems.

Most of the previous battles were completed on a makeshift arena outside, because there was only one arena and there were too many people participating in the competition.

Allen watched with great interest. The warriors and spellcasters of the two teams were basically from the Green Field Tribe. Their techniques and tactics were very proficient, and their cooperation was very tacit. At least in Allen's opinion, they were far more capable than Kerr and her adventure team back then. Much more mature.

The two teams each have their own style. One team has four spellcasters in their team as the core. The goblin warlocks of two large-power forts are paired with a mage with many small magic tricks. There is a priest behind them to bless each of them. A kind of buff spell, one after another, hitting the opposite side head-on, causing a picture of bombings.

The team on the other side had a different style. Three powerful shield warriors stepped forward, guarding their team members firmly behind them, waiting for opportunities to move, and they fought very calmly.

In the end, the team with three shield warriors closely guarding was better. They seized the opportunity when the opponent's caster's mana dropped to the lowest level, quickly launched a counterattack horn, and almost simultaneously displayed the technique and tactics of shield charge, smashing in like a cannonball. into the opponent's team's queue, causing a commotion.

The other team members who followed behind also chose their targets without hesitation. The weapons in their hands danced vigorously, causing casualties to their opponents immediately.

The scale of victory seemed to be tilting towards Spark's team, but Spark, as the captain, did not have any mood swings. He slammed the shield and knocked the thin hobgoblin sword dancer in front directly away, finally breaking through. The other party has the right to protect, revealing the figures of the four casters.

boom! !

A huge force came from above his head, and even Spark, who had outstanding strength, had to step back for a few seconds. When he looked up again, there was a humanoid creature surrounded by flames in front of him. It was the dwarf mage Amanda who cast it. The trump card is a powerful fire element summoned from the plane of fire.

The fire element was not polite either. Except for Amanda who summoned it, any other goblin that appeared around it became its attack target. There is no need to recite incantations or construct spell models. With a body constructed of pure fire element energy, with just a wave of the hand, a fireball comparable to a 4-5 level spell falls whizzing towards the threatening target in its eyes. .

Amanda's teammates obviously knew the shortcomings of summoning the fire element. The moment the fire element appeared, they collectively retreated a few meters, at least avoiding the first wave of commotion caused by the fire element.

When Spark and the others reacted and reorganized their battle formation to confront the fire element, they fell into the dilemma of being attacked from both inside and outside. The dawn of victory they had just seen changed direction again and tilted towards their opponents.

Until Druid Vernon in Spark's team painfully threw a scroll, which landed on the fire element in the gap between the opponent's magic interception. As the scroll was burned, the fire element was also expelled by the expulsion spell. Returned to its plane.

A level 5 spell scroll is of great value. If it were not for their unwillingness to give up this game, Vernon and the others would not be using this scroll. However, the moment the fire element disappeared, Spark and the others finally had their hands free to start again. Reversed the offensive and defensive momentum on the field.

…………

After several reversal changes, the Snow Wolf team's caster spells were finally exhausted, and the most important firepower assaulter was lost as the winner, allowing Spark and his Rock team to achieve the final victory. “I declare that the final champion of this team competition is Team Rock. Congratulations to Captain Spark and their team members. Let us applaud their victory!!!”

After adding the amplification effect, Trick stood up as soon as the battle ended in the arena and announced the final winner to the tens of thousands of spectators in the arena stands.

There was a burst of jubilation and applause on the field, which lasted for a long time, paying tribute to this outstanding team of adventurers. On the ground, Spark led the eleven team members, holding each other as support as they struggled to express their feelings to the audience above. grateful.

The members of the losing team, the Snow Wolf Team, sadly packed up their weapons and props on the ground, supported their partners, and walked slowly towards the exit of the arena.

The Green Lake Town Competition also came to an end at this moment. After more than a month of hustle and bustle, wilderness natives and lone traveling traders began to return one after another, and Green Lake Town finally resumed their original lives.

Allen personally presented awards to the hundreds of outstanding warriors who won, and gave them some praise and encouragement. This group of outstanding talents who rarely faced the legendary powerhouse were very flattered.

Unexpectedly, what he originally thought was a competition that caused bloodshed among the tribes, but in the end, when Trick added up all the expenses and benefits, he found that the real sacrifice was not as big as imagined.

Just for the dozen or so final showdowns held in the arena, the tickets collected exceeded 1 gold coins. The arena, which was enough to serve tens of thousands of spectators, was almost full. Although the arena tickets only cost silver coin, There were so many viewers who couldn't bear to watch, and even Trick was surprised by the huge profits gained from this.

As for the head tax, commercial tax, etc. brought by the huge flow of people, the income is at least 10,000 gold coins, and more uncountable catering, accommodation, etc. are made into the pockets of ordinary goblins. In fact, in the end It is also the tribe that benefits the most.

The most important point is that through this grand competition, the Green Field Tribe's strong and open reputation will be spread to the outside world, which will have a profound impact on the tribe's future image and influence.

In the end, Terek even started to think about holding a few more events like this. After all, in all the competitions in the past ten years, the overall ranking of Green Lake Town was still weaker than that of Namur Fortress. After all, the resources and funds ultimately obtained will be much less.

Since balance cannot be obtained from the total expenditure, if Trick wants to obtain more resources to develop Green Lake Town, he will naturally have to think of other ways.

This year's large-scale competition did allow Trick to see a glimmer of hope, an opportunity to bring Green Lake Town, which is located in a corner away from commercial roads, one step closer to prosperity.

"Mayor Trik, this is what our city owner entrusted to you. He hopes that the members on this list can be recruited into the list of 200 people."

Late at night, an uninvited guest came to Trick's study room and respectfully handed him a list.

"Hehehe, Fakado has a big appetite. He wants to cram in so many people at once, and he's not afraid that the clan leader will notice the problem inside!!"

Trick casually took the thin piece of paper, and while speaking teasingly to the hobgoblin standing in front of him, he raised his eyes and scanned the white paper. Dozens of names were densely written on it, many of which were actually It has been included in the list of 200 people.

"The owners of these names have all reached high-level strength, and their rankings in this competition are not low. We believe that as long as Mayor Trik is included in the list, no one will doubt them."

The middle-aged hobgoblin Tris is Facardo's confidant. Because he manages the Namur Fortress, Facardo cannot participate in the Green Lake Competition, so he can only send Tris as a representative to talk to Trico. Negotiate.

Although there has been competition among the two goblin leaders, Fakado and Trik, over the years, there has also been a lot of cooperation and compromise. Because they all understand that as the two goblins grow older, they have to pave a new path for their descendants and leave a wealthy life that can last for a long time.

However, Trick and the others also knew very well that with Allen, the true leader who single-handedly created the prosperity of the Green Field Tribe today, if they wanted to complete these plans under the nose of this awesome being, they would only have to rely on their own strength. Power is necessarily impossible.

In the end, driven by interests, the two real power holders of the Green Field Tribe had already completed compromise and cooperation in secret.

"Well, I will add the names above to the list, but I can't guarantee that they will make it to the final list."

I carefully read all the names on it one by one. Except for a few goblins who should have been squeezed in through the back door, the other goblins are basically qualified. However, Trick did not forget to say it clearly in advance, because this time, it was not Trick but Alan, the patriarch, who actually presided over the selection of the final list.

"The patriarch asked me to select more than 300 goblin warriors. Then he will personally take these goblins to the quarry in the West Mansha Mountains for a year of special training. After the final elimination, the list of 200 goblins will be determined. .”

"So, how many goblins will be left on the final list depends on their own abilities!!"

"Okay, I'll take these words back."

Tris's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded in response: "Is there a specific departure time?"

"I'll probably leave in half a month..."

"It's best to prepare your players mentally. I'm afraid this special training will be very difficult!!"

"Thanks for reminding!"

　I didn’t want to devote too many chapters to the tribal competition. The protagonist wouldn’t participate anyway, so I just skipped it.
