"What, eating you?"
Some time later, on the outskirts of the Sioux camp, the Qingling Adventure Group, who were gathering to discuss something, suddenly burst into exclamation when a strange name appeared: "What kind of anti-human ritual is that?"
I have to dig out the dinner for you?"
"It's 'Barish'! But I can't blame you. When I heard this name for the first time, it took me a long time to understand it completely..."
"Don't worry about what these words mean, just tell me what this strange ritual is about."
"It's more of a duel mode than a ritual."
As the surroundings gradually fell silent, Duan Qing, who was responsible for the introduction, finally spoke up again after whetting his appetite: "I heard that it is a duel to challenge the opponent's leader. Whoever wins the duel will be equivalent to declaring victory in the war.
Victory or something like that... right, just like——"
"It's like the Salas Duel, isn't it?"
After speaking the name lightly, Goldman suddenly realized as if he noticed that his words and deeds were somewhat difficult to understand: "Ah, I am talking about the name of the duel in the previous game "Rise of Empires". The form should be the same as that of the duel in the game "Rise of Empire".
The form you just described is similar, as long as whoever wins can execute the loser and everyone under him at will."
"Although I don't know what kind of duel procedure this Barish here uses, it should be essentially the same." Duan Qing nodded his head and replied with determination: "Battles between tribes often
It is full of blood and tragedy, so the peoples on these grasslands have created this way, gambling on the reputation and glory of their respective tribes, and the winner can have everything the loser has."
"It's simply a comeback weapon!" The one-armed warrior named Asahi Dongsheng slapped his thigh and shouted excitedly: "No matter how disadvantaged I am, as long as I can win this duel, the outcome will be determined.
Didn’t you just reverse it with one shot?”
"Even if you propose it, the other party may not accept it, and even if the other party accepts it, you may not win." Shaking his head, Gedman answered the other party's words expressionlessly: "And in the rise of the empire,
Inside, even if you can win the duel, the opponent may not keep his promise, and the so-called Salas duel is just an entertainment and decoration in the final analysis."
"I don't know how far these tribes on the grassland can hold on to their dignity and beliefs." He said this, and at the same time he turned his gaze to the Sioux settlement behind the few people gathered together.
Jian: "If they really plan to win through this duel——"
"Then they must have encountered some crisis that forced them to act."
Banging his palm with his fist, Duan Qing's voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears: "We should have seen the fighting power of the Su clan before. Even if it is not powerful, it is definitely not powerful.
As a weak tribe, they probably wouldn't choose this decisive method of deciding the outcome in one round unless they had to."
"The reason that forced them to make such a decision must be unspeakable." The light in his eyes became brighter and brighter, and Xue Ling Huan Bing's low self-talk also sounded in everyone's ears: "For example, they are strong on the outside but strong on the inside.
, or encountered unexpected obstacles or the like.”
"We haven't seen the Nashi tribe, so we can't compare the combat power." Gedman spread his hands and continued to analyze: "But since they have decided to use this method of burning the cauldron that only the weak will use, then
The situation must have become extremely serious."
"This is indeed an opportunity for us to get rid of giving away wolf skins and rat skins every day and gain a little bit of friendly reputation." His voice paused, and the looks on the faces of the surrounding players also changed.
He had to be more serious: "What do you think?"
"I agree! I agree! Fighting is the most suitable thing for me! Although I may not be able to fight at all now..."
"I don't object, but the troubles we are facing now are not just this one. Don't forget the unsolved mysteries left for us before. We still don't know the situation of the Lufen Chamber of Commerce."
"Perhaps what happened this time is also related to the Lufen Chamber of Commerce? Is there any? Hmm... If it is really necessary to annex the Sioux clan for some reason, the purpose of that chamber of commerce coming to approach us can be explained.
Woolen cloth."
"How likely is this?"
No longer paying attention to the team members who were having heated discussions, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who quietly approached, tilted his head and landed his orchid breath on the side of Duan Qing's face: "Is it possible to take advantage of the situation and kill that chamber of commerce?"
"Taking a step back, our goal is just to continue to live in this prairie." Duan Qing, who scratched his cheek and stared at the busy scene deep in the tribe, replied in a low voice.
: "The survival of the Sioux is not an important matter to us at all. If they are destroyed, our situation may not be affected in any way."
"Why, you don't want to participate in this battle?" So Xue Ling Huan Bing also turned his attention to the tribes where Duan Qing was looking at: "Do you want to sit back and watch? And then take sides based on the results?"
"It doesn't sound like my style, does it?" Duan Qing lowered his head and said in a deep voice, gradually hiding the smile on his face: "But this is indeed the most suitable for us now.
It’s the path we have chosen, because there are unknown enemies around us who are eyeing us.”
"This is just my personal opinion."
Looking at the increasingly excited faces of the other players in front of him, a wry smile appeared on his silent face again: "Now it seems that most of our teammates will not agree."
"As long as you think about it, it's just a trivial matter to shock them." Shaking his head, Xue Ling Huan Bing gradually showed a confident and determined smile on his face: "A reasonable plan is better than a hot-headed one."
Passion is much more effective and they will agree with your decision."
"But rationality is sometimes not the best choice. You should have understood this a long time ago." Duan Qing withdrew his gaze and sat on the grassland with his arms folded. He replied solemnly: "What's more,
There is no loss at all by standing idly by, at least we lose the opportunity to try to take a step forward, right?"
"I will not interfere with everyone's choices." He cast his eyes at the white-haired woman who was looking at him: "Even if you really fail because of your hard work-"
"Presumably they won't regret it."
The discussion wandering in the grassland wind finally came to an end in the unexpected silence of Xue Ling Huan Bing, with the roar of Asahi Dongsheng and Gedman suddenly jumping up to the blue sky.
Go, the people belonging to the Qingling Adventure Group then marched towards the depths of the Sioux settlement with their own cheers and cheers, gradually blending in with the tribesmen who were also busy running around. They were also wearing clothes that were incompatible with the surroundings.
Wearing a black cloak, Mengzhu quietly followed behind the team. She, who had never said a word since the discussion began, also showed her extremely sharp eyes at this time.
, the gaze that seemed to want to pierce the back of someone in front of him was suddenly interrupted by a voice next to him: "Why didn't you express your opinion?"
"..."
"If you have the chance, will you participate?"
It seemed that he had long been accustomed to the silent reaction of the other party at this time. Duan Qing, who continued to speak, pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled again: "I'm talking about the battle of 'Barish' - what are your thoughts?"
"...I don't want to participate."
Mengzhu said such an answer dully, and Mengzhu, who did not give the other party a good look, replied bluntly: "This is your guild's matter, what does it have to do with me?"
"We have arrived in the New World. Should we let go of all the grievances and entanglements in the past?" Duan Qing did not care about the other party's cold look and continued with a smile on his face: "We are now ants tied on a rope.
Grasshopper, shouldn’t we show some attitude of dependence on each other?”
"Who, who wants to depend on you for life!" As expected, his words caused a huge backlash from the little girl: "Even if Sister Lorna is here, we have never officially established a friendly relationship! Who am I?
Want to help you?"
"Ah? I thought we were at least comrades-in-arms who lived and died together now." Duan Qing continued with an innocent face: "And even if you don't want to follow us, you don't have anywhere else to go, right? In this new continent
The grasslands here are very vast.”
"Hmph, don't underestimate my ability to survive." Then Mengzhu wiped his nose with disdain: "I have practiced survival long ago when you left me - during the time when I was independent.
With my ability, there is no problem for a person to survive alone! The reason why I have stayed here is just for——"
"Wait a minute! What do you mean?"
The hurried pace and low-pitched discussion were interrupted by a sudden exclamation, which also attracted the attention of the interrupted blond girl. The back of Asahi Dongshengyu also seemed to be early.
He rushed to the front of a tent that was crowded with people, jumping up and down around that place: "What do you mean we are not allowed to participate? Are you looking down on us or something?"
"What do you think this is for? This is a place to recruit the best warriors of the whole clan!" The same high-pitched voice answered the other party's question, and the two warriors of the tribe waiting at the front of the camp continued to move Asahi Dongsheng's body towards
Pushing further outward: "Only the best warriors can be selected by the clan leader and elders to participate in the battle of the 'Barish' ceremony!"
"Who are you?" Crossing the scimitar in his hand, the tribal warrior looked up and down at Chao Ri Dongsheng's body with disdain: "How can a foreigner with a broken hand still have fighting ability? He still has the ability to fight.
Want to participate in the sacred duel ceremony?"
"We have such courage and courage."
He stretched out his hand to stop Asahi Dongsheng from jumping up again. Duan Qing stepped forward and slightly tugged on his gray magic robe: "Or is this not the place to sign up for the ceremony?"
"This is the place to sign up, but this is the place for the Su tribe to sign up!" Looking sideways at Duan Qing's face, the tribal warrior's voice was filled with more impatience: "You guys
These strangers are not members of our Sioux tribe at all! Don’t hinder our selection here!”
"Hey, since you are an outstanding tribe on the grassland, you don't even have this kind of mind, right?" What answered him was the voice of Gedman who stepped forward again: "Since your selection is to choose
If you send out the strongest warriors to participate in the ceremony, what if you bring us outsiders along for a 'selection'? Or are you worried that you won't even be able to defeat us?"
"Ha." He looked up and down at the big shield warrior who was slightly shorter than him with a disdainful look. The tribal soldier had a bored expression on his face: "He doesn't even know how to use a scimitar.
Guys, don’t blame me for not warning you! Even if you dare to break in, you will definitely be defeated by us——"
"Then give them a chance to try."
The indifferent voice interrupted the tribal warrior's words, and was accompanied by the figure of Surtu who suddenly walked out from the crowd of people around him. He didn't know when he came here. He had already put on a battle attire and said solemnly.
His eyes also wandered back and forth on the retreating tribal soldiers and Duan Qing and others for a while, and finally focused on the gray-robed magician: "I want to confirm to you one more time: you really want to represent our Sioux tribe,
Do you want to duel with the most powerful warriors of the Nashi tribe?"
"If you don't believe in our sincerity, we can discuss other conditions." Still maintaining the gesture of saluting, Duan Qing slowly released his fingers pulling on the robe: "The trustful relationship can be bought out.
Instead, money and property might allow you to get more excellent warriors, right?"
"Whether you are good enough or not is not decided by me, but by the people in the camp." Staring at the other party and shaking his head, Surtu's solemn face then turned behind him: "Ba
Bu, get out of the way."
"But Captain--"
"I will explain it to the clan leader and elders."
His stern face did not relax at all. Surtu raised his hand and interrupted the tribal warrior: "If they win, don't let them go in a hurry. I will take them to meet the clan leader."
"certainly."
He turned his head and took a deep look at Duan Qing and others again, then pressed the handle of the scimitar and disappeared into the distance of the crowd.
"If they lose, everything I just said will naturally be unnecessary."
