The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 657 The waves are slightly rippling
  "I heard that the bugbears in the south have already taken care of the surrounding tribes."

In a newly built large garden in the inner city of Bonn, two drow matrons met unexpectedly. Carol, who came from the city-state of Mosica, was dressed in military uniform, which was completely different from the other matrons who took a sexy route.

As he spoke, Carol was holding a short bow in his hand. The breath of natural elements lingered around the bow, and no arrows could be seen on the fully drawn bow string. But as the bow string was loosened, 'boom' With a soft moan, a soaring goshawk a thousand meters above his head let out a mournful cry and fell to the ground.

Beside her, the demigod mistress Pernilai's eyes were filled with sparkle, and she gently raised her hands to applaud Carol's perfect performance.

"I'm not surprised at all that the bugbear leader next door was able to subdue a few wild leopards in the surrounding areas, but I am a little curious about his method of convincing those guys."

With a smile in her eyes, Pernilai slowly replied, Drow are selfish in nature, cunning and vigilant, and rarely do things like Allen to win over the partners around him for the purpose of win-win. In Pernilai's original prediction, Allen was most likely to first integrate and annex the tribes of trolls and jackals, and then use the power of the three tribes to overwhelm others and force several other tribes to move closer to him.

However, the choices Allen makes are always beyond expectations. It is clear that the strength and layout of the Green Tribe are now able to steadily swallow up the Jackals and Troll tribes, but he still maintains enough restraint and lets the Jackals go. Tribes of humans and trolls exist independently, which, at least in the eyes of the drow matrons, is a bit foolish.

However, while she despises Allen, Pernilai is also constantly speculating on Bugbear's psychology. An outstanding figure who can manage a weak tribe to a national model in just over two hundred years, since he has done such a thing The choice must be based on his own considerations.

And this may be what the top leaders of the Drow Federation, who have escaped from the underground world and are standing alone on the surface, need to learn and understand.

Both Pernilai and Carol in front of her knew that although their Hosea Federation seemed powerful enough in the northern wilderness, even if Bugbear Allen integrated the power of the six major tribes, they could only barely compete with the Drow Federation. Internally, the five major Drow city-states have never been truly united.

The nature of the drow, as well as their past actions, made them dare not trust each other easily. Under the peaceful and friendly atmosphere, no one knew whether other city-states were hiding any conspiracies and had any influence on one of their members. What action.

Pernilai herself has made many attempts to integrate the power of the five city-states in order to deal with dangers that may arise at any time in the surface world. Of course, based on the drow's behavior, most of Penile's methods must be shady. In the end, her attempt not only failed to help the drow unite, but instead intensified the estrangement between them, causing the relationship between the five city-states of the Federation to More and more complex.

By the time Pernilai regretted it and wanted to ease and mend their relationship, it was too late. The matrons of the other three city-states were deeply wary of her. They would rather be stationed at Cold Wind Point than be in the same place with Pernilai anymore. .

Even the Mistress of Mojica City State, Carol, who was forced to stay behind and garrisoned in Bonn with Pernilai in the end, was said to have privately obtained promises from the Mistresses of the other three city-states and reaped considerable benefits. Will get along with Pernilai.

"It would be great if we could also join the Ring of Thorns!!"

Penilai's eyes showed a smile and seemed to be moving.

"However, they want to develop the eastern foothills of the Cator Mountains. Maybe we can get involved."

"If you want to mix it, you can mix it yourself. Now I just want to take care of the land under my city-state."

Carol didn't bother to speculate on Pernilai's thoughts. She just wanted to keep a distance from Pernilai, so even if she might still be plotted by the other party, the risk was something she could bear.

And to be honest, with the increase in rainfall in the northern region, the natural environment in the area around Bonn City has also improved. With the Drow's strong wall clearing the wilderness, countless wilderness natives have been driven away or simply enslaved. A large amount of land is waiting for the Drow to develop. , Carol really has no interest in doing thankless things.

"Ugh!!"

A cold light flashed across Penilai's eyes, and a resentful sigh floated out of the corner of her mouth.

…………

In the City of Bones, Da Vinci, the strongest kobold, had a stiff face. The surging fire element rippled over the castle, frightening the waiters in the castle to tremble.

The thin piece of paper in Da Vinci's hand was rushed by someone sent by Cozmo. The content written on it with a few crosses was exactly what made Da Vinci angry at this moment.

"Useless things!!"

The piece of paper spontaneously ignited without wind, and turned into black ash on the dry fingertips of the kobold's chicken feet. The old man looked out the window and whispered: "Remember to remind me at the next regular meeting of the alliance. I will go see you." This new demigod in the alliance.”

"Yes!"

In the darkness of the corner, a vague figure that was almost integrated into the environment responded in a deep voice.

Da Vinci was not worried about the threat of this new demigod to him. As the strongest man in the wilderness and the true ruler of a large force with a tribe population of more than one million, he did not think that a new demigod was just a powerful person. How much of a threat can it pose to yourself.

What he cared about was that Urok, the leader of the kobold tribe, actually turned his back on him and chose the bugbear who had just advanced to become a demigod. The value of this was a slap in the face! !

Da Vinci couldn't remember how long it had been since he had experienced such humiliation. Even the other three demigods in the wilderness, or the powerful demigods and above from other forces, no one would humiliate him in front of him.

"Humph!!"

A cloud of fire suddenly erupted in the castle, and with a cold groan, Da Vinci's figure suddenly disappeared.

…………

Deep in the central mountain range, there were violent tremors. Following the shaking, if you dig deeper, you will soon see a towering mountain peak that is slowly collapsing. Countless falling rocks are splashing around and rolling down to the foot of the mountain, making a dull roar. .

A figure was like a ghost, shuttled between the splashing gravel, and the huge falling rocks turned into smaller stones under its constant waving movements. With one person's power to resist hundreds of tons of falling rocks and dust, he almost cut off the collapsing earth-rock flow carrying huge potential energy, which shows how powerful this figure is.

When the dust settled, the collapse of the mountain temporarily stopped, and the ghostly figure suddenly disappeared again. A cold light was accompanied by a violent energy storm, and another high mountain in the distance was destroyed by man. I don’t know how long the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Anyway, there was no living bird or beast within dozens of miles in this area. Until the sun slowly set in the sky, the ghostly figure finally stopped his movements.

The great goblin demigod assassin Marvin's body was spotless. The previous violent movements only made his breathing quicken. After venting his anger, his expression returned to calm at this time.

Ever since he learned that Allen, a fellow goblin, might break through the shackles of a demigod, Marvin felt threatened and wanted to eliminate the trouble before the opponent was fully promoted.

Relying on the explosive and invisible abilities of his demigod assassin, Marvin had great confidence that he could assassinate Allen. However, he never expected that his actions would be seen by Kirill, a demigod of the same profession in the Ranger Church. Before he could Approaching the Green Field Plain, they were stopped halfway.

At that time, although Marvin did not fight to the death with Kirill, he still exchanged several serious moves out of anger. The final result made him a little frustrated. His strength in the duel was still a little behind Kirill.

Unable to achieve his goal, Marvin returned in despair. He was already depressed, but he didn't expect that just a few decades later, he would hear the news that Allen, the bugbear, had officially been promoted to demigod.

News from the Green Fields Plains continued to arrive. Which tribes sent envoys, the names of the envoys and their status in the tribe, etc., were all clearly heard by the ears and eyes of the Yucatan tribe in Green Fields.

Sure enough, just as Marvin had worried before, for Allen, an advanced bugbear demigod, members of the goblin-dominated tribe among the alliance members were the most active in visiting him, and sent many envoys who could be considered as members of their respective tribes. core members and generous gifts.

Although this matter does not seem to have much impact on the current situation, after all, choosing a camp is not just as simple as whether the other party is of the same race as yourself, but also whether the other party is a radical, conservative, or Balance faction and so on...

But Marvin still knew in his heart that at least the goblin compatriots would have one more choice in the future, which would be equivalent to one more bargaining chip. When the Yucatan tribe wanted to win over these tribes, they might have to pay a higher price.

Now that the other party has just been promoted successfully, there is news that he has integrated the six major tribes in the north and let them follow his lead. This also gives the bugbears an initial opportunity to compete with themselves and others at the next ten-year alliance meeting. Confidence also verified the other party's ability and means, and how to prevent Marvin from feeling worried.

Demigods are not immortal, they just have a longer lifespan than other ordinary compatriots, such as goblins, humans, trolls and other non-long-lived races. When they advance to demigods, their lifespan is 1000-1200 years, which is higher than that of legends. The lifespan of the stage is no more than one and a half times longer.

Although Marvin is only over 700 years old now, and according to common sense, he still has a lifespan of 3-400 years, but compared to Allen, a new demigod who is only about 240 years old, Marvin will definitely be older than Allen. Died early.

By that time, the Yucatan tribe will also fall into the same situation as other demigod tribes in the past after losing their strong demigods, and gradually turn from prosperity to decline.

However, this process also has priorities. Some tribes may quickly turn from super-large tribes to ordinary tribe members, while others can still maintain the scale of population and talents. Although they cannot be as brilliant as they were at the beginning, they can still grow over a hundred years. Ranked among the best among multiple member tribes.

Nowadays, among the top twenty tribe members in the alliance, they are basically all tribes that have produced strong men above demigods. This is the benefit and heritage that demigods have gained for their tribes in his thousands of years.

The time it took for Marvin to become a demigod was only three hundred years. The first half of that time was spent wrestling with other demigods to fight for his own power. The time that could really help him and his tribe fight for benefits. It’s only over a hundred years ago.

And this was thanks to the fall of the powerful demigod Heishou, which allowed Marvin to save a lot of time and profit from Heishou's profit plate instead of taking food from the interests of the other three colleagues.

Now that he has finally gained a foothold at home and is preparing to seek long-term interests, Allen's sudden promotion has caused the balance of interests that was finally formed to become turbulent again, and Marvin can't help but feel impatient.

It's not like Marvin has never approached the Assassin's Guild and wanted to issue an assassination mission, but these guys were so well-informed and also knew about the fact that Allen had advanced, so they directly rejected Marvin's mission.

This made Marvin even more angry. He couldn't figure out why the Assassin's Guild looked down on it even if he offered a mission reward that he thought was astronomical! !

…………

What Marvin didn't know was that in the eyes of the demigod mage Jarvan, the head of the Assassin's Guild in Mansha City, Bugbear Allen was far more capable and promising than Marvin, a seemingly veteran demigod. Worth the investment.

You know, Marvin's lifespan is already over half, and Alan, the bugbear's lifespan, if viewed in terms of the lifespan of a demigod, is only just an adult. If you offend him by assassinating Allen at this time, then the Assassin's Guild may not be able to live in peace for almost a thousand years in the future.

It would be okay if the bugbear could be killed. The union would get a lot of rewards for the task and the friendship of a demigod. But if the bugbear could not be killed, the anger of Allen, the demigod, would be extinguished. With hatred, I am afraid that the reward from Marvin's mission alone may not satisfy the other party.

Moreover, if you want to kill a demigod, you need to plan, deploy manpower, invest in various precious magic props, and at the same time be prepared for all kinds of backlash and losses caused by the opponent's desperate fight.

It is obviously a task with huge risks and disproportionate returns. As a rational spellcaster, Master Jiawen naturally cannot accept this task after weighing the pros and cons.

Of course, the abilities and talents of Allen, the new demigod, are also placed in front of Jarvan. Allen's past experiences have long been compiled into several rosters by the Assassin's Guild, which has terrible intelligence collection. Even Allen's mother is listed on them. The secrets of being hunted by the wyvern were all found out.

Swish swish! !

If Allen knew that the book in Jiawen's hand at this time recorded the most detailed meeting minutes within their Ring of Thorns organization, and that every word he said was accurate, I am afraid that Allen would immediately remove the people who were present at that time. All participants except the leaders of various tribes came to perform a purge,

Several books and records are a bit old, and it is obvious that someone has read them frequently. With Allen's current strength and status, the only one in the Assassin's Guild who can access these materials at any time is the one in front of him who has a human appearance and is actually an orc. A demigod mage with elven blood.

The more carefully he looked at Allen's experience, the more Master Jarvan appreciated this new demigod, especially when the other party took the initiative to sell out the Nasir Fortress, invited the Snowmi and Crow Claw tribes to settle in, and then slowly passed taxes , commerce and other methods to pull the two tribes into their own chariots until the court seats were established.

This kind of operation method, the final result and direction, judging from the intelligence collected by the Assassin's Guild on the three tribes of Cator Fortress, it is not difficult for Jarvan to judge Allen's purpose and ambition.

“What an interesting guy!!”

Jiawen rubbed the book minutes in his hand, with a look of interest in his eyes.
