Chapter 117: The inevitable conflict(1/2)
The equipment for the trip to the Nightmare Forest was fully prepared, and Tang Shidao and his party were about to set off when suddenly an unexpected news came.
The Lord of Leixi City sent someone to invite him, saying that he had a very urgent matter to discuss.
Tang Shidao and Hu Ying were not familiar with this city, so they could only leave it to Long Ya to make the decision. Long Ya nodded and replied to the tauren envoy: "Since Lei Xi said we can go there for something important, please help us prepare the place first.
Beast, we need to transfer to the Dongling sentry post later, it will be faster if there is a beast on the ground to pull the cart."
The tauren messenger said solemnly: "Master Longya, I'm afraid you can't get up so early this time."
Long Ya frowned, wondering in his heart that the Lord of Leixi City did not dare to interfere in his own affairs.
What the hell happened?
"Let's talk to the Lord of Leixi City first. The soldiers don't know much, so don't embarrass them." Tang Shidao saw Long Ya and wanted to accuse him, but he didn't want to waste time. So he persuaded him, saying that the Lord of Leixi City is the one who can do it here.
The one who calls the shots.
Huying also nodded slightly.
Honestly.
He really doesn't take the city lord of the second station seriously. In the Master Network, everyone is like you or me. Who dares to show off and pretend to be the boss? Huying doesn't mind teaching him how to behave.
By the time the group arrived at the city lord's mansion, almost all the mages and heroes in the city had arrived.
"Master Longya..."
"Hello, Master Longya..."
"Long time no see, Master Longya..."
When Tang Shidao and his party arrived, everyone kept greeting Long Ya, and their tone was a bit flattering. There was no way, in a place like the Forbidden Demon Land, equipment was definitely the first survival factor. Long Ya was proficient in armor making.
As a master, who doesn’t want to hug his thigh?
Long Ya just nodded slightly, still not taking these people seriously.
Tang Shidao felt that in addition to being proficient in making armor, Long Ya also had strong military power which was also a source of confidence.
soon.
The five-meter-tall Thunder Rhinoceros City Lord is here.
He apologized at the beginning: "I'm sorry, everyone. Because the matter is rather urgent, please forgive me for not greeting me well. Let's not talk too much nonsense, let's get down to business. I believe everyone knows about Master Longya going to the Nightmare Forest. Now this
This matter has become complicated, and I'm afraid we need to take joint action."
Long Ya's expression changed: "Lei Xi, what do you mean? Are there any restrictions on our going to the Nightmare Forest?"
The Lord of Leixi City quickly shook his head: "No, no, of course not, Master Longya, how can I stop you from doing anything. It's not our fault, but a group of unknown mages who have made things worse. They will make you go to the nightmare."
The news about the forest spread, and not only invited a group of mages outside the network, but also spread the news to some nearby intelligent beasts. Now, this matter has become a group incident."
Tang Shidao had to speak: "Lord Lei Xi City, what does this matter have to do with us? They can go if they want, and we will go our own way."
The Lord of Thunder Rhinoceros City smiled bitterly: "Mr. Owl, things are not that simple. If I tell you that the number of mages outside the network has exceeded 300,000, and they are all going to the Nightmare Forest, do you think it will have nothing to do with you?"
"Are the mages outside the network unfriendly to us?" Tang Shidao asked again.
"It's still a friendly relationship. But no one will be merciful when it comes to treasure hunting. There will definitely not be a fight, and whoever picks up the treasure first will definitely own it. Mr. Owl, this time it's not just that simple. Some people have been convinced
The alien beast race has joined this feast, and this is no longer an ordinary treasure hunt." The Lord of Leixi City explained.
Tang Shidao didn't quite understand.
Hu Ying explained: "We are enemies with the alien beasts, but we usually cooperate in terms of 'conquering the environment' and 'opening up new territories,' especially the more intelligent alien beast races. In the Forbidden Demon Land, there are also some alien beast races.
Cooperate with us and make deals, not every strange beast will hate us."
Tang Shidao understood.
If a person goes to live in the forest, do the rabbits living there hate the people who come in to grab their territory? Or do they hate the wolves who keep eating them more?
Only the rabbit himself knows this question.
Hear conquer the environment.
Tang Shidao also understood that the Nightmare Forest has become the 'public enemy' of everyone. Mages, outsiders, void beasts, everyone wants to get rid of this Nightmare Forest. Maybe it hides a lot of good things, maybe it occupies too much area
, in short, no one will allow it to continue to exist. In the plane world of the Mage Network, many mages will clear the Nightmare Forest as soon as they grow up.
"What kind of regulations?" Long Ya hates surprises and only likes step-by-step plans.
"The three parties of us gathered together, and then selected ten leaders to form ten legions and enter the Nightmare Forest. During this period, the void beast races that have temporarily united will not attack us, and the rest is hard to say. Master Dragon Fang, you
You are one of the strongest people in Leixi Fortress, and we need you to take action to win a spot." The Lord of Leixi City sincerely requested help.
As the city lord of the war fortress, it will not leave even a step without destroying the city and killing people.
Once the city lord takes office.
It can immediately obtain a large amount of rights and resources. Likewise, it must never leave the war fortress it belongs to.
Therefore, it needs the help of other mages no matter what happens outside the city.
Long Ya turned to look at Tang Shidao and Huying.
Huying only looks at Tang Shidao.
Tang Shidao also had some interest in mages outside the network, so he said: "Okay. Everyone knows it anyway, so it doesn't matter if we join forces to make a big fuss. As long as we find what Huying needs, this mission will not be in vain. Be honest.
He said, I seem to smell a bit of conspiracy, and I hope everyone will be careful."
"Okay." All the mages also nodded.
But I didn't pay much attention to it.
When is there no conspiracy and conspiracy in the Forbidden Demon Land? There are various races and beast soldiers mixed here, some of which are chess pieces placed by certain forces.
Negotiation completed.
The Lord of Leixi City did not say much, said goodbye, and the group quickly rushed to the meeting place.
on the other hand.
The Beast Soldier Legion set off early and rushed to garrison around the Nightmare Forest. There were not many people who were confident in their own strength to run for 'leader', and 'stars' such as alchemists would not appear. The mages could not work too hard.
If you die in a fight like this, you have to be sent back to resurrection, so you will definitely miss the Nightmare Forest.
Therefore, mages are just some physically strong people who want to try it.
Surprising.
When Tang Shidao and his entourage arrived to gather, the competition for quotas had already started. Seeing Tang Shidao and his entourage arriving, everyone present was also secretly surprised. The competition had already begun, why is there a group of new people joining now? What about the previous results?
Is good?
A temporary elevated platform.
Ten flags.
Ten chairs.
At this time, there were already nine people or beasts sitting on the flags. Those who were too big to sit on the flags let the clan representatives take a seat, and then they stood behind the flags. Six void beasts and three beast-headed men were the only ones left on the high platform.
A chair and a flag.
At this time, the battle was raging on the high platform.
A deer-antlered man and an eagle-headed man were fighting fiercely, and the two sides continued to fight until their bodies were covered in blood.
Tang Shidao saw that some of the victors were seriously injured, and thought that they would give up the command temporarily. He would heal their injuries first or quit and return directly, and be replaced by his friends or tribesmen. This time, Capture the Flag was just a competition for the ten team leaders. As long as he won
You can let your own clan take charge.
Everyone dispersed into the Nightmare Forest to deliver food.
Forming an army is indeed the best way.
only.
This time, the operation has not yet begun, and the conspiracy is gradually revealed. Before my group arrived, the game was already nine out of ten, which was clearly the rhythm of causing trouble.
I haven’t finished thinking yet.
suddenly.
On the high platform, the deer-antlered man's brute force increased greatly, and he knocked the eagle-headed man off the platform with a single collision. He laughed loudly and said: "Hahahaha... Don't all of you mages in the network exercise your body? I only used half of my strength just now.
I didn’t expect you to be so reluctant to fight. You lost, Mr. Mage, and the last flag was won by our outside mage. You don’t seem to even have a team leader, it doesn’t matter, just follow me, I will take care of you.”
The hawk-headed man glared at the high platform and rattled his claws.
In terms of physical fitness, it is indeed not as good as the other one.
but.
What is the advantage of a mage in the Forbidden Demon Land? It's not physical strength or aura, but...innate spells!
In full view.
No matter how angry the eagle-headed man is, he will not expose his innate spells. Some of the spectators are friends of his mage network, and they know his identity. Once the innate spell is used, it may spread throughout the entire mage network tomorrow.
It cannot afford such a price.
