Chapter 148 Chapter 148 Not Ending

The Clan Meeting betrayed the future of the Jiangu Clan. Not only do they stay complacent, they also "control" the elected king, making him a mediocre and safe ruler. Dagon couldn't figure out the reason for the clan meeting to do this, but he already had enough reasons to decide to change or even overturn it. The only problem is: in a short period of time he has only the determination, not the strength to implement.

Reid also said "the timing is not right" and explained what the right timing was: first, Dagon had to be ready and mastered the ability to fight the clan council; Agree, otherwise it will only be regarded as a lunatic, a fool, and a destroyer of order. If you want to do the right thing, the most important thing is not to be the bad guy.

"Let's revive the Jiangu clan again." Dagon had this idea and chose a small goal: remove the clan meeting and kill the roadblocks. Whether it is an ideal in the future or a small goal in the present, the difficulty is not small. Dagon has to prepare himself and like-minded people for this.

"Hehe, can these two things be done in Myniris?"

Reid pointed out Dagon's biggest concern, and then said that the focus of his studies should be Put it in the middle realm of Soul Spirit, and follow him to learn the knowledge that even the gods of the Jiangu tribe are very envious of. The things of the elf are at best "skills", and following him will be far more important than "skills".

Ryder's knowledge is very rich, and can even be described as bottomless. In the "arithmetic" part, from simple to deep, from easy to difficult, from simple to complex, Dagon often feels that he has reached the limit of understanding, but there will be new knowledge coming out later. The most terrifying thing is not the simple knowledge point, but that he can often open up new fields and let Dagon see the world in a way and angle that he has never thought of before.

In addition to arithmetic, Rhett also took two courses, mainly to make Dagon change his mind and adjust the difficulty. The relatively simple one is the language class, mainly in Elvish language, supplemented by human simplified language, these things can be used in the elite Academy sooner or later.

Dagon's favorite class is physics, especially force analysis. Maybe as a Jiangu clansman, when I see things like levers, balances, winches, pulleys, I feel kind. These tools are widely used in Jiangu clansman's daily life, and the artisans have a rich and interesting set of recipes to teach them how to make and use them.

Tools are also weapons on the battlefield. Building city walls, fortresses, fortifications, etc. are also skills that weapon masters need to master. Dagon recites these mantras a lot, but only today has he really learned the rules behind all the rules, the secrets behind the formulas.

"How do you know so many things?" Dagon naturally asked the question: "How long have you been studying?"

Reid counted with his fingers, mouth After talking about six years, six years, four years, three years, he finally rolled his eyes and said, "It's about equivalent to your 30 years. Later, I continued to learn some principles of life, which are similar to what I teach now. Yours are not of the same type. In the sixty years I have been here, apart from observing you, I have lost my temper with the Spiritual Gods of the Jiangu clan. Instead of learning new ones, I forgot some, which is quite a loss.”

"Only thirty years? You must be the most intelligent person."

"No, I'm just an ordinary person. A little bit smart, but definitely not the smartest, not far from it." Rhett shook his head and said, "Dagon, the power is in the hands of the hero, and even more so in the hands of the ordinary person."

Dagon thought of those cut books. There is nothing in the biography and life record of the elected king that deserves to be cropped. But in the books of some ordinary soldiers, poets, and craftsmen, large paragraphs have this value. What is this value, it is obviously the force that enables the Jiangu clan to move forward.

"Don't think about being a hero first, be an ordinary person first, and understand what an ordinary person needs." Reid taught Dagon and said to Dagon: "Sixty years ago, you lived in a closed environment. The Jiangu people in the city. They don’t know the living conditions of the Jiangu people outside, and they don’t understand the world, but they are not affected by the outside world. Think about the Jiangu people who have been outside. Does anyone have the same idea as you?”

"It's good that you have an idea now, but there's a long way to go from idea to realization. If you think you know how to go now, you're wrong. You don't even know How to get to the elite Academy from here! You know that you can't work alone, so what method should you use to gain support? You must understand the ordinary person and understand what this world is like outside. Remember it well You are already learning what you have seen and heard along the way.”

Indeed, Dagon has learned a lot from the many things he has experienced along the way and the many people he has met. But it's all about going to Myris and studying at the elite Academy, and his challenges lie ahead.

Due to some delays on the road, from mid-spring to mid-autumn, Dagon finally came to Myris. This northern kingdom of elves is the richest and most powerful place in the world. From the twin towers in the west to the Wolf's Eye Castle in the east, from the Pearl Mountains in the north to the Magic City in the south, it can be said that the most important place in the world is All areas are under the control of Myniris.

Looking up at the sky, you can see that the sky fortress hanging under the huge balloon is slowly flying under the push of the propeller, patrolling the sky of the elves. In addition to placing the arrow tower in the air, these flying devices produced by Pearl Castle can also carry catapults, heavy crossbows or a team of knights, which are the most important and characteristic battle strengths of elves. The elves claim that they can use the air force to directly win the war, but Jiangu clansman retorted: "The air force can't go to the infinite labyrinth underground."

In addition to the air force guard, the elves have a very strong defense on the ground. . Going west from Wolf's Eye Castle, you will soon enter a huge forest, and the wide road is occupied by tall, thick trees on both sides. This is the famous "living forest". There are quite a lot of tree people, tree castles and plant puppets among the trees. It is difficult for outsiders to see the difference. Intruders are often directly smashed by branches from nowhere.

"Living forests" can not only defend, but also attack. They only need water, soil and sunlight to live. When advancing layer by layer, they are like moving bunkers. Wherever they go, they will become local fortresses and Barrier, so that the elf army is invincible. But it's still what Jiangu clansman said: "The living forest can't go to the infinite labyrinth that is underground and has no sunlight."

The elf card can always go, right?
The convoy entered the area of Myris, where the shade of the living forest always accompanied everyone. Blue sky and white clouds Green trees, small animals jumping between the branches and chirping birds are always filled with a cheerful atmosphere, as if the air here is sweet. Dagon opens up the dragon sense -- oh, "earth hearing" -- and sees something different.

Some trees are alive, and they are watching the convoy; some birds and squirrels are not alive, but spies from the mana summon, and they are also watching the convoy. It's not just the fleet, they fairly monitor everyone who enters Myris. When Dagon saw them with the earth's hearing, some guys felt strange and raised their vigilance.

Only terrestrial hearing can locate terrestrial hearing. There was some commotion in the forest, a group of birds screamed and rushed into the sky, the leaves were rustling loudly, some people in the caravan thought that a large carnivorous wild beast was approaching, and hurriedly assumed a defensive posture. Gerlos shouted twice, letting the team continue to maintain the same speed.

"There are no lions and tigers in the living forest. The biggest predator is the fox, don't be afraid." He said, "After entering Myris, you can see leopards, long-toothed tigers, and the like. , they have also been kept as pets in captivity. There are only civilized creatures who know the rules in the living forest, don't be frightened and flustered."

The golden dog caravan fired some people and recruited some new people. Therefore, some are indeed coming to Myniris for the first time, and some things should be explained earlier. Geros climbed to the top of the box of the truck and said to these people: "When you arrive at Myris, you are all obediently and honestly, don't talk if you can, run if you can, come to me if you have something to do. There are a lot of rules here. , some common sense you think is not applicable. For example, walking on the road with an open bottle of wine, you will be caught."

"So, eat where you eat, and walk where you walk. , sleep where you sleep, don't do other things! If you want to poop, don't think you can do it in a place where no one is there, go to the place where they collect poop! Got it?"

" Boss! There are so many rules, how do you remember them? Are there any signs, mantras or songs?"

Jeros shook his head and said, "Secret Nairis is divided into about fifty districts, each The rules of different regions are different. If you want to remember them all, there are probably lifespans as long as elves. For example, in some regions, you can take weapons, and you can also buy and sell weapons there, but you can buy them from this street. If something is not allowed to carry weapons, you will be caught again."

"Don't panic after you go, usually you can get out with a little money. Remember One point, contact the caravan when you encounter something. The Chamber of Commerce alliance has people here who specialize in dealing with this kind of thing, which can save you a lot of money and trouble. But to save money, five or six gold coins are also indispensable. For the sake of your wallet, don't do this kind of thing."

Geros said: "Remember, if you want to leave the caravan station, you must tell me or Maipu that must have a friend named Namili by your side. Accompanied by well-known companions. Buy and sell things through Chamber of Commerce. If you want to eat or have fun, it is best to only go to the facilities registered in Chamber of Commerce. There are many entertainment items that can earn money, If you're interested, go and find Toby. This matter will not be publicly shouted."

Dagon rolled the eyes. Before Gerlos mentioned this matter, Toby had come to him and had told him secretly. The elves look arrogant and unapproachable on the surface, but they play a lot in private. While maintaining the sanctity of monogamy, they sought to gain their freedom. In Myris, both men and women can find elves who need to be served...

Dagon didn't want to hear about the current state of the industry after that, and threw Toby away. Toby shrugged, the result was expected. Some people in the caravan are very much looking forward to getting the "approval" and "rewarding" of the elves, but Jiangu clansman does not have such a frivolous atmosphere and habit, only the words of "steadfastness".

Toby came to say this to Dagon, in fact, to remind him to be careful with elves, especially beautiful female elves. Yes, that's Shiloai. Gerros and the people in the caravan who care about Dagon are worried that he will suffer in this regard, but it is not easy to say it directly, lest it activate Jiangu clansman's "stubbornness", which is the opposite.

"There are many good things here in Myris, but don't be picky, and remember one sentence: You are not elves, and you have no talent for spells, many things are useless, don't spend it in vain Money..."

Geros was still chattering outside while Dagon started counting and packing in the car. Elite Academy is located in the east of Myris, and he will not go to the finish line with the team. Although he has only been with him for nine months, he has built a deep trust and friendship with some people in the team, which will be remembered for a lifetime.

He originally wanted to leave gifts for a few friends, but was discovered during the preparation stage. Gerros and Toby both said they didn't need it, but Luciga persuaded Dagon. She said that according to the team's custom, the exchange of things means some kind of end, just like the end of the transaction, the end of the commission. If you want to remember, then don't give away, never end is best.

Therefore, Dagon and the Golden Dog Caravan tacitly chose "not to end". Auctioning Chimera skins brought more than 4,000 gold coins to the caravan, of which Dagon's dividends were 2,200. He planned to take 200, and the remaining 2,000 entrusted the Golden Dog Caravan to send to Jiangu City to his parents, but Gerlos never gave him the 200 gold coins - this is an unfinished contract.

Dagon didn't persist until the caravan arrived at the Elite Academy, left a note saying not to offer him a bounty, and then secretly left the caravan on a dark and windy night to complete the last section on foot. of the road. He also did not fully fulfill his promise, nor did he break it, this can be considered leaving the caravan with an unfinished commission.

Walking along the Roaming Great Dao of the living forest, the night wind blows the leaves and the rustling never stops. Without having to deploy his earth-hearing, Dagon could sense beings monitoring him. Turning his head to the side, Dagon saw squirrels and woodpeckers with piercing eyes. A birch tree full of old bark quickly closed the eyes hidden in the knots.

"What are you afraid of? Subterranean monsters don't go from here." Dagon said to the squirrels and woodpeckers: "Are you guarding against Jiangu clansman? Or are you guarding against humans, halflings or half-elves?"

The creatures in the woods didn't give him the answer, the squirrels were still nibbling on the pine cones, and the woodpeckers dong dong dong smashed the trees. A red-haired fox paced leisurely out of the woods, wandered into the middle of the road, and looked at Dagon with bright orange-yellow eyes.

Dagon thinks about it for a while, he doesn't lack anything now. Through the caravan, Dagon bought a dwarf helmet made by dwarves at Canine Fortress. It has a full-coverage design, with neck braces and shoulder braces, and there are almost no gaps except for the eyes. This helmet was originally intended for heavy dwarven defenders, and is rarely used by ordinary people, so it is relatively cheap. Dagon relies on the earth's hearing, and is not worried that he will hinder his observation and perception.

He also bought new pants, a new coat, and a new pair of rabbitskin gloves, all of which are so soft, comfortable and durable that there is no need for fox fur. It is said that fox meat is not delicious, and it has an unbearable smell. Although Dagon does not know true or false, he is not curious/starved to the extent that he must kill the fox to eat the meat. It is also said that fox fur can be used as a shawl, which is very warm, but unfortunately Dagon does not like such a bright red color, and does not think it will be more practical than the five-headed dragon cloak made of chimera scales.

"Get out of the way, I'll give you a kick." Dagon whistled and strode past the fox, ignoring it at all. didn't expect that fox was quite crazy, he opened his mouth and bit him.

Dagon continued to move forward, the fox's head was embedded in the road, its body was raised, its butt was pouted, its skull was broken, and there was a crack in the shape of a head-hunting axe tail on its top. of the head.

Its tail wagging in the wind seems to be a signpost for the elite Academy.
