Chapter 595 594 The good wife Tris always knows what to do

Chapter 595 594. The good wife Tris always knows how to make the little man in the family happy

While Murphy returned to Transia to talk to the Scarlet Archon whom he relied on, the goatman scholar Julia and the old man Finley who returned with Murphy went to visit the nominal master of the Blood Vulture Clan.

That is, Mrs. Tracey, the honorary elder of the "Dark Roots" organization.

Frankly speaking, Tris is not willing to receive these goat people from afar, mainly because her family knows her own affairs.

When she chose to become the elder of the "Dark Roots" in Vidia Abyss City, she did not do it for any reason at all. Her purpose at the time was really clear, which was to use this identity to steal some good things from the Goatman's treasure house.

Just stuff.

For example, the dark robe of the Lord of Curses and the legendary Staff of All Magics.

As a result, not only did the items not be stolen, but I was almost stopped and beaten by the Goatmen elders. If I hadn't been lucky and had good friends secretly assisting me, the Scarlet Witch, who was so famous back then, would have been wanted as a wanted criminal again.

Just saying this is embarrassing enough.

The shameless Tris has always regarded this as her "black history" and tried every means to hide it before it was too late. As a result, not only the young man in the family already knows all this, but also the "old friends" of the Goat Man from back then.

They all took the initiative to come to the door.

Alas, how do you say that sentence?

The past can never disappear. The past has been shaping the present and will definitely shape the future. What a bad luck!

But these goatmen are the "guests" brought back by Murphy, and little Murphy has high hopes for them, and Tris can't pretend they haven't seen them.

Alas, now I can only take one step at a time.

In the reception room of the Blood Eagle Corridor, the stern-faced Tris heard the knock on the door and let the guests in with a grunt.

Julia, who was wearing the traditional dark robes of the goatmen, and the old goatman Finley entered the door. These two guys were really polite. As soon as they entered the door, they respectfully saluted the "elder" Tris in front of them with disciple etiquette.

.

Tris and Julia's mentor were peers, so she accepted this courtesy calmly, and then saw the old goatman Finley, whom she had met several times in the past, give him a precious gift.

They were a pair of strange black claws. The prototype must have been huge. After being tempered by the Goat Man's secret method, it was reduced in size and maintained its original power. It was made into a pair of powerful claw gloves that could be used by assassins.

The delicate incantations flashing on this thing looked like something extraordinary at first glance, but Tris was well-informed, and what she really cared about was the material of this combat claw.

"I have never seen the claws of a beast like it in the Dark Mountains."

Tris observed these sharp claws and said in surprise:

"This looks like the front claw of some kind of lizard? Where did you find this material? Is this some kind of monster you killed?"

"That's not the case, Elder Tris."

The old goatman Finley is Julia's mentor's assistant. He has met Tris before. This can barely be regarded as a "reunion of old friends." After the vampire attendant served him hot tea, the old guy sat next to Tris.

Sitting on the chair, twirling his goatee, he replied with great respect:

"The material of these claw blades comes from a routine inspection conducted by the rangers of Abyss City a few years ago. In the mountains where Abyss City is located, they found the remains of a giant beast. That is something we have never seen before.

A strange giant beast, brutal and powerful, crazy and terrifying, our patrols brought various materials about the beast back to Abyss City, which caused a sensation at that time.

Scholars believe that it is a giant beast that has never appeared in the Dark Mountains, perhaps migrating from other places. The sharp claw in your hand is one of the most precious trophies in that harvest.

Unfortunately, that lucky inspection seemed more like the beginning of a disaster.

In the second year, similar giant beasts frequently appeared in the mountains of Abyss City, and many of our brave hunters and spellcasters died in their hands.

Let me tell you the truth, Elder Tris.

After you left us, Abyss City has maintained a fragile peace for so many years, but the appearance of those giant beasts seems to symbolize some kind of uneasiness. The top management of Abyss City cannot solve the problem, and the number of giant beasts is increasing.

They seem to be preparing to turn our mountains into lairs.

The prophets of Abyss City predicted a river of blood, so we are already preparing to move, moving our city from a dangerous area to a safe place further east of Mirror Lake.

But each faction has its own destination, and no one can convince anyone else, which has intensified our internal strife.

However, even without the appearance of those mysterious behemoths, the split in Abyss City would have happened sooner or later. The Baphomet cult is just one of the products of this racial infighting, and it is not even the most dangerous split in the history of the Goatmen."

"Well, it sounds like the goats today are no different from the ones I saw back then."

Tris nodded.

She knew that this was Old Finley telling her tactfully about the current dire situation in Abyss City, but Tris was not surprised by this.

In mainland legends, the Goat Man represents evil and darkness. This legend is not based on bad racial discrimination, but is spread based on the Goat Man's character traits.

It would be an exaggeration to say that these guys are inherently evil, but they are certainly not good people.

Goats are the kind of bad guys who have maxed out their Internal Fighting skills. Precisely because they are the smartest race in the Dark Mountains, they can use the power of wisdom to fend off enemies and at the same time impose dark conspiracies on their own people.

On the body.

Tris's eyes were opened when she "traveled" in Abyss City. She had witnessed more than seven conspiracies being imposed on the same faction in three days. It was when Tris became the honorary elder of "Dark Roots".

One day, a faction with thousands of people fell apart due to different conspiracies.

Similar things happen almost every month in Abyss City, and the goat people have long been accustomed to this.

"This is Julia, Elder Tris. She is the most outstanding disciple of your friend Moran. In the future, she will inherit Moran's position as a councilor in Abyss City and become the leader of the Dark Roots."

Old Finley leaned on his cane decorated with goat heads and introduced Julia to Tris with a smile. However, Tris was careful about her identity and did not talk to Julia immediately. Instead, she asked the old goat man:

"Finley, I heard that something happened to my good friend Moran? But did she really die of illness? I don't believe that a psychic master whose research on spells is so profound that I am amazed would die suddenly.

Disease!

You goatmen are also immortals, and a 'health master' like Moran can easily live for eight hundred years."

Tris said in a deep voice:

"So, my friend Moran was killed, right?"

Old Finley sighed and whispered:

"I can only tell you that it was a battle of ideas! Elder Moran told me before leaving that night that if she could not return, I would immediately take her apprentices and leave Abyss City.

To be honest, even though I am Master Moran's companion, I cannot know all her thoughts and secrets.

However, when I took Julia and other members of the Dark Roots away, I unexpectedly heard a piece of gossip. There were rumors that Samok, the current city lord of Abyss City, had an affair with some mysterious people in order to prevent the species from splitting again.

Outsiders established a covenant.

Perhaps the death of Master Moran is related to this matter."

"Those outsiders are evil!"

Julia, who had been silent, raised her head at this moment and said:

"Although my mentor never let me get involved in the politics of Abyss City, I once saw her arguing with some council members with an angry face. You know, my mentor has always believed in the existence of the King of Curses, and believed that only Vidia

Able to lead the Goatmen to rise.

In the inheritance of Abyss City, we are conservatives among conservatives, perhaps it is because of our mentor’s stubbornness that offended the narrow-minded city lord.”

"well"

Although Tris regards her activities in Abyss City as "black history," she has no ill feelings toward Master Moran who accepted her into the Dark Roots organization.

In fact, Moran is indeed one of the people Tris admires in terms of psychic knowledge. Although the relationship between the two is not as close as best friends, they can definitely be regarded as good friends.

After hearing about Moran's experience and the dire situation in which her disciples were now "exiled", even though she had not planned to cause trouble, she now had to intervene in this matter.

The companions and disciples of my old friend have already come to me for help. As an honorary elder, if I can't provide them with protection, I would be a little ashamed of the "important help" that Moran gave me back then.

She almost got caught when she went to steal something from the Goatman's treasure house, but it was Moran who risked being discovered and executed to cover her escape from Abyss City. This was a life-saving grace.

"So, how many elders are there in Dark Roots now?"

Tris asked.

Old Finley's eyes lit up and he immediately replied:

"Counting you, there are three more, but the other two are very unstable. They are afraid of the city lord but cannot be as firm as Master Moran. Julia wants to return to Abyss City to inherit her seat. The biggest difficulty lies in these two

On the elders."

Julia is obviously smarter.

She observed Tris's expression with her unique cross eyes, trying to figure out what Tris was thinking, and then suddenly thought of some "news" that her mentor had revealed to her after she was drunk.

In Tris's silence, Julia decided to take a gamble. The bold and young goat scholar whispered:

"After you left, our organization developed and expanded in Abyss City. The mentor was one of the guardians of the Abyss Treasure House before she left. Her relics contain the key. Although it cannot open all the spell treasure houses,

But if you can help me regain control of the dark roots, then I am willing to give you the key as a reward."

"Julia!"

Old Finley tapped his cane on the ground in dissatisfaction, and scolded:

"You are not qualified to make such a deal with Elder Tris! She is your elder. You must serve Elder Tris as you serve your mentor. The key left by Moran should have been given by her closest friend in this life.

inherit.

That's not your private property.

Do you think Elder Tris will change her will just because of some petty gains?

You are a little too underestimated by a vampire grand duke.

Kneel down!

Apologize!"

"Snapped"

Julia knelt down in front of Tris as a disciple without hesitation. Old Finley sighed and said to the delicate Tris:

"As you can see, Elder Tris, after Master Moran left, this child has no one to control her, causing her to lose her due dignity and etiquette. She needs a spiritual master as powerful as Moran to lead and

Educate her.

And Julia is a true genius!

Her understanding of spells and laws is as if she has been enlightened by the King of Curses. It only took fifteen years to pass the scholar examination of Abyss City. You should know what an amazing result this is.

There is indeed another reason why I brought her here this time.

We were rescued by Lord Murphy in a critical moment. We have a duty to serve the Lord. Julia is also eager to complete her unfinished study in Transia.

Therefore, I would like to take the liberty of asking you to take care of her disciples on behalf of Moran."

"You two are really good double acters!"

Cui patted the table without any politeness and said:

"This is using favors to blackmail me. It is indeed the way of the Goat Man! Back then, Moran also used favors to blackmail me into joining the Dark Roots. But you have gone so far. If I refuse again, I will be sorry.

An old friend who has passed away.

I can accept Julia as my disciple.

I can give her the power to reorganize the faction in Transia, which is easy and simple. I can even give Julia's faction the "Book of Curses" captured from the Baphomet cultists to read. and learn.

But I also have my conditions!"

The Archduke of the Blood Vulture stood up, stood in front of Julia, reached out and stroked the elegant horns of Julia, a goat woman.

She said softly:

"While you are learning the secrets of the Book of Curses, you must help Femis and I shape Transia's unique spiritual energy system, based on the Goatman's already mature spell system and vampire spiritual energy. Curse and command spells that fill the Book of Curses.

I will teach you all the psychic powers I have, Julia.

But you can't leave Transia until you've finished shaping this system.

And I just wanted to say it, what’s the point of being a councilor in the small Abyss City?”

Tris sneered and said:

"Similar words were said to your mentor back then. I once invited Mo Lan to travel to the mainland with me to do some work, but she cared about her compatriots and did not want to leave. Now, I will repeat these words to you. .

Julia, and old Finley, you two now have a choice!

Either accumulate strength in Transia and finally fight back to Abyss City to get the power that was taken away from you, or settle in Transia and become a psionicist ally of the Blood Vulture Clan.

My little Murphy will give you the authority to coordinate psychic affairs.

You don’t need to go back to the hopeless Abyss City. You can build an Abyss City with dark roots in Transia!

Of course, I can’t pretend I didn’t see Moran’s death!

I have very few friends in this life, so each one is very important. After you are ready, I will lead you and the warriors of Transia to expedition to Abyss City! We will kill the murderer and bring back the Goatman's abyss treasure trove. Transia.

It’s not because we are greedy, it’s because Moran’s death must be compensated!”

Tris's request was too much.

This almost requires Julia and old Finley to break away from the Goatman system and become completely vassals of Transia.

But neither Finley Sr. nor Julia objected immediately.

Goat people who can get ahead are ambitious!

Instead of being a mediocre councilor in Abyss City, it might as well be a try in Transia, a "feng shui treasure land". Lord Murphy's men lack psychic power. As long as they are willing to come, they can be in high positions immediately. .

This kind of hitchhiking opportunity is very rare, and they have the support of Tris, the Duke of Blood Vultures with a complicated identity.

What's more, the roots of darkness are now suppressed to a state of disarray.

However, Julia was obviously still worried. She whispered:

"But we are goatmen, the evil ones in everyone's mouth, Elder Tris. No, mentor! Can we really spread our knowledge openly in Transia? Although Lord Murphy has promised, to be honest, I am not convinced The understanding of this land is still very shallow.”

"My little Murphy is the master of this land. If he says you can do it, then you can do great things with an open mind. He is the destined master of Transia, and this land will not resist his will."

Tris handed the Book of Ten Thousand Curses to Julia, who was so excited that her body was shaking, and she said:

"Murphy even wants kobolds. You goatmen are a highly intelligent species. It's too late for him to be happy. Of course, if you can give him the key to the abyss treasure house."

"I hid the key left by my mentor in a mountain outside Abyss City."

Julia answered without hesitation:

"As long as Master Murphy needs it, I can get it back immediately."

"I'll go."

Old Finley stood up and said:

"I happen to be going back to Abyss City. If we withdraw from the Dark Roots council dispute, the other two elders must pay compensation.

It just so happens that Lord Murphy needs a psychic force to assist his warriors in guarding the Valley of Shadows. The Dark Roots' spell group can take on this important task. I will try my best to recruit as many talented goatman spellcasters as possible to come here.

Lancia, preparing to form a new faction.

But the Baphomet cult is a real problem, Elder Tris.

Those fallen ones are summoning the evil god of nightmares, and the Grand Canyon is far away from Abyss City but very close to Transia, you and we must pay attention!"

"Don't worry, old Finley, my new Grand Duke butler."

Cui waved her hand nonchalantly and said:

"The Baphomet cult will not be a problem, believe me. Finally, you are welcome to join Transia. You will like it here. I am sure of this. It is really only a matter of time."
