"Do you really think we will be the victors?" said the female savage, "In order to bring that old guy with hairy ears into the mountains, the tribe has lost half of its manpower, and even we were arrested.

I don’t know if I can see the sun tomorrow.”

"This is a necessary sacrifice, Iron Spear." Redbeard said.

"Don't talk like those people outside the mountain. It sounds disgusting." Iron Spear paused, "I don't believe those dwarves, they are our enemies. Our ancestors have been fighting those greedy guys."

"Today is different from the past. They have agreed to return the land that belongs to us to us."

"I don't think those dwarfs have such good intentions."

"Of course they are not well-intentioned, they just have a bigger intention. They want the Western Territory, the entire Western Territory, more than the land at the foot of the mountain. Then their army will continue to go east to conquer the Golden Valley, Elk Valley... until

Break through Lionheart Castle and capture the orcs, humans and dwarf emperors alive."

"If you ask me, those dwarfs must have drunk too much ale and their brains are not functioning properly." Iron Spear sneered, "If it weren't for Dragon Crest Mountain, they would have been beaten to the shit by the Empire. They even dreamed of asking for help."

Capturing other people’s emperors.”

"I said that today is different from the past. Those dwarves have allies this time, very powerful allies. Moreover, the one who was said to be able to beat the emperor before the empire died. He was replaced by a younger one, and the palace was burned down."

"These are what those dwarfs said. Who knows if they are true or not? And why do we want to go down the mountain? Isn't it nice to live on the mountain?" Tie Qiang hugged his brother a little tighter.

Red Beard was so buried that he almost couldn't breathe. "What are you talking about? There is nothing on the mountain. How can it be compared to the mountain below?"

"But we still have each other, don't we?" Iron Spear shrugged, "And the most important thing is that we can all live."

"Give me a little more time, I'm just thinking about how to escape from here, and isn't our spy here too?"

After Red Beard finished speaking, he found that Iron Spear did not answer him, but looked blankly in a certain direction.

Redbeard followed her gaze and found a figure not far away.

The man was dressed in strange black clothes, completely blending in with the night.

Redbeard was surprised, "When did that guy come?"

"It's been a while." Iron Spear said.

"Did he hear what we just said?"

"So what, he doesn't understand anyway." Tie Qiang said disapprovingly.

"You still have to be careful." Red Beard muttered, but then he saw the female savage suddenly puffing up her chest.

"What are you doing again?"

"Let's see if we can seduce him. I don't want to sit here and wait for death."

When Red Beard heard this, he couldn't help but become jealous, and yelled, "Stupid woman, have you ever seen any man who would be interested in a female savage?"

"Female savages are also women." Iron Spear sneered, "This is a military camp, they can't find other women, can they, and he was staring at me just now."

"You are my woman, how can you seduce other men in front of me?!" Redbeard's face turned green with anger, and he couldn't help but reach out to pinch the iron spear's neck.

Iron Spear was not to be outdone, and immediately bit Red Beard's ear. The two struggled in a ball on the ground. Red Beard finally used his own strength to pin Iron Spear to the ground.

Panting heavily, he said, "If you look at that person again, I will dig out your eyes. I will do what I say."

"I give up." Iron Spear said simply, "My heart only belongs to you, brother, and besides, that guy has already left."

Redbeard turned around and found that the strange man in black had disappeared, as if he had never appeared before.

On the other side, Yin Leya had not yet fallen asleep. She and twenty-four other nobles were huddled in a tent.

There are no chairs here, just a wooden table with a map that looks very dated.

This map was given to the female lord by Hells before leaving, saying it was the only map of the Dragon Crest Mountains that could be found in the entire Western Territory.

The time when it was drawn is unknown, and the handwriting has become a bit dull due to the erosion of time. That's not enough. The key point is that like other maps on the Bratis continent, it is not drawn very standard.

Some places are also marked with inexplicable monster names such as Bigfoot and Hairy Monster.

The guys just took a rough look, and mainly studied together where Marquis Cullen and others would be trapped, and how to get out after entering the mountain tomorrow.

They have been arguing for some time, but have not yet come to a conclusion.

After all, everyone is too unfamiliar with the Longcrest Mountain Range, and no one has been in it before.

All the nobles can do now is to let their imagination run wild in front of a suspicious map, and since everyone is in the clouds, no one can convince anyone.

The female lord was having a headache. When she saw Li Yu walking in from outside the tent again, her eyes couldn't help but light up, "Prophet Merlin, you just went out for a walk. Did you gain anything?"

However, Li Yu's answer disappointed her, "No."

"Uh, okay, but it doesn't matter. After we enter the mountain, we have to rely on Prophet Merlin to use your divine power to summon those three-eyed birds to help us find the Marquis." Miss Rabbit continued.

But then she saw Li Yu shaking his head again, "The three-eyed bird is no longer useful."

"Why?"

"Because there is a mysterious power contained in that mountain range, which prevents me from awakening the divine bird."

"How could this happen?" The female lord was surprised.

And a noble named Scrooge beside her thought of something at this time, and his expression changed and he asked, "Is it because of the dragon?"

"Dragon, are there dragons here too?"

"No, the living dragon should be gone, but the dead one is still there. There have been rumors in the Western Region that this mountain range was transformed by an extremely large dragon after its death.

"The mysterious power you mentioned may be the remaining dragon power here."

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Li Yu nodded.

All the nobles present were deceived by the serious appearance of the prophet of Shuangxiu Cult. Only Yin Leya, who had been staying with Li Yu, realized that someone might be talking nonsense at this moment.

Because in the previous battle with the black dragon, Li Yuke never mentioned the dragon's power at all, nor did he see any of the sacred weapons in his hand being affected by the dragon's power.

Yin Leya was a little curious as to why the prophet of Shuangxiu Cult lied on this issue.

But there were many people in the tent at this time, and the female lord could only suppress her curiosity for the time being, and did not pull Li Yu into her tent until the meeting was over.
