Chapter 320 The Arranlore Tribes (Nearly 20,000 Words Super Chapter)
Zhongnan Mountain, Haoran Academy.
What is supposed to come will eventually come.
Although there were many twists and turns between the two, in the end the second senior sister Liu Yingying decided to end the nearly 20-year love affair between her and the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan.
Generally speaking, a couple who falls in love for too long will not have good results.
Because they know each other so well that they lose the sense of freshness.
But they finally broke the curse.
Zhao Xun participated in hosting the wedding as the master of ceremonies and best man.
It is not an easy task to organize a wedding well.
Zhao Xun still spent a lot of thought on this.
Zhao Xun arranged a sea of flowers at the wedding venue. The colorful flowers competed with each other and brought the atmosphere to the climax.
As for the newlyweds Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Swordsman, and Liu Yingying, the second senior sister, they were dressed beautifully, handsome and unrestrained.
Although both of them are not young anymore, after dressing up like this, they look at least ten years younger.
Tsk tsk, it turns out that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. The ancients do not deceive me.
Zhao Xun was very moved.
It is truly a joy to see Second Senior Sister gain happiness with your own eyes.
Yao Jianxian is really a good match for the second senior sister. The two were childhood sweethearts, and they match each other very well in all aspects.
The most important thing is that their personalities complement each other.
The second senior sister is strong, while Yao Jianxian is relatively docile.
Newcomers with this kind of complementary personality can handle problems ideally and will not get into a quarrel whenever they encounter a problem.
When a newly married couple passes the honeymoon period, they will be in a cold period for a long time.
According to Zhao Xun's experience, at this time, the young couple is likely to quarrel over some seemingly trivial matters.
Of course these can be avoided.
But sometimes some people just can't make this turn.
Maybe it's because both sides are too strong and no one is willing to give in.
But how can there be no friction in life?
Between firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, friction will always exist.
The key is that both parties must be able to understand each other. Only by understanding each other can we go far enough.
Zhao Xun knew very well that the two of them would have to get along for a long time in this process. Living a married life and falling in love are completely different things. Falling in love can be romantic, unrealistic, and unrealistic. But living a life is absolutely not possible.
To live life, you must put your mind down and be down-to-earth.
Obviously, Yao Jianxian was the loser in this process.
But there is no other way, there must be someone on both sides who is tolerant.
With the strong character of Second Senior Sister, it is obviously impossible for her to be patient and humble. Therefore, the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan can only suffer a little loss.
But suffering is a blessing.
It is definitely Yao Yan's blessing to be able to find a wonderful woman like Second Senior Sister as his wife.
Well, this matter has settled one of Zhao Xun's worries.
Zhao Xun originally thought about holding a wedding with them, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided not to do it.
First of all, Zhao Xun had just rescued Li Taiping from Prince Qi's palace. At this time, Li Taiping was still a little shaken.
Zhao Xun wants to marry Li Taiping at this time, which is somewhat unfair to Li Taiping.
We still have to wait until Li Taiping slowly adapts and gradually completes his psychological construction.
Secondly, Zhao Xun knew very well that getting married at this time would be a huge distraction.
The war is about to begin, and Zhao Xun doesn't want to fall behind at the critical moment.
Now that the two most important people, Second Senior Sister and Yao Jianxian, are getting married and their combat power is greatly reduced, Zhao Xun can no longer hold back.
Everything starts with the war. After the war, Zhao Xun will definitely hold a grand wedding with Li Taiping.
...
...
Sometimes Laurent doesn't know when the Dragon Clan will be revived.
Looking at the stars in the night sky, Laurent just felt melancholy.
Originally, Luo Lun thought that things would be different after coming to this world and Mount Zhongnan.
But the facts proved that he thought too much.
Although the Dragon Clan was the first to arrive at Zhongnan Mountain, the other tribes were not much slower.
They came to this new world through the Dark Portal one after another, and started exploring with curiosity like newborn babies.
The process of exploration is undoubtedly a bit boring.
But when they realize how rich this world is, even those who are indifferent to the world may have greedy thoughts.
Lauren knew that he could not support the revival of the entire tribe by himself, so he was eager to find a strong ally.
He frequently showed his favor to the academy and finally obtained the academy's right of residence.
He thought this was a good start, but the good times did not last long. Not long after, the academy sent a notice saying that people from the elves were coming.
Laurent didn't have a good impression of the elves. He believed that all the dragon tribesmen, and even all the tribes on the continent of Ellen Lore, would not have a favorable impression of them.
The elves seem to be an advanced race, but in fact they are just as beautiful as they are beautiful.
For a long time, Lauren thought that the elves were the most shameless people.
Corruptors - Although demons and undead are also hateful, they write their badness on their faces and clearly tell the world that they are evil forces.
But the elves are not like that. They are very good at disguising themselves. They are like dancers attending a masquerade, wearing a mask on their faces at all times.
What's even more frightening is that when you take off the mask on his face, you will be surprised to find that there is another mask underneath the mask, just like a matryoshka doll, layer by layer.
You never know what an elf tribesman is thinking in his heart.
This was originally a slang term, but to Lauren it seemed infinitely ironic.
How can he prove to Zhao Xun and the academy that the elves cannot be trusted?
Lauren thought this was too difficult.
Because it seems that Zhao Xun doesn't really believe that he regards him as a friend.
Even though they have been getting along day and night for so long, even though Dark Wings and White Dragon have become good friends.
But not between their owners.
Lauren could understand it after thinking about it carefully.
After all, they suddenly appeared from another world.
If it were Zhao Xun and the academy disciples who suddenly came to the continent of Ellen Lore through the Dark Portal, Luo Lun would probably feel guilty about forming an alliance with him, right?
Maybe he can form an alliance, but he can't truly treat each other with sincerity.
Referring to others, it is understandable that Zhao Xun has doubts.
It's just that Laurent really doesn't have much confidence in the character of the elves.
He doubted that the reason why the elves came to this world was to obtain energy.
The elves are the race that needs energy the most, and their territory in Ellen Lore has been polluted and the energy is gradually dissipating.
So finding new territories to gain energy is what they must do.
The prosperous Chang'an City is undoubtedly the place where they can easily obtain energy.
Of course, people in this world call energy true energy, also called vitality.
No matter what it is called, the meaning is the same.
Lauren knew very well that the elves came here to seize energy.
Once they gain enough energy, they will kick their allies away, just like they did in the continent of Ellen Lore.
When the first alliance was formed in the continent of Ellen Lore, the major tribes abandoned all their prejudices and united to fight against the invading demons and undead.
If they could maintain a strong desire to fight and fight side by side from beginning to end, there might be a completely different ending.
It's a pity that the elves are so young. Not only did they rebel midway, they even stabbed their allies severely.
As a result, the originally indestructible alliance collapsed.
After the alliance collapsed, the leaders of each major tribe led their tribesmen to stay in one place.
This is obviously what the intruder most wants to see.
Facing the tribes fighting each other, their absolute strength clearly has the upper hand, and they can use various defeating strategies to kill them one by one.
At first, the demons and undead attacked the orcs and trolls.
Because in their view, these two tribes have unlimited brute strength.
There are many hidden dangers if you keep it.
So they used almost all their strength against these two tribes.
The orcs and trolls obviously suffered a serious blow next, and even fell into despair for a long period of time.
The next unlucky ones are the dwarves.
Although the dwarves have a strong castle, it was still riddled with holes under the invasion of the undead.
The human race retained a few kingdoms, but at the cost of losing large areas of fertile land.
The losses of the Dragon Clan were also great. Countless giant dragons died tragically in that war. The Dragon Clan people who lost their shelter could only wander all the way and live in exile.
They lost their territory and had to rely on others.
Of course it is not easy, but they can only force themselves to persevere in order to survive.
And all of this was really caused by the elves.
Luo Lun didn't lie and wouldn't lie, but why didn't Zhao Xun believe it?
And the old guy next to him kept staring at them. It was really strange for a big man to stare at another big man.
And there are no flowers on his face. What’s so good about him?
Although he knew that it would not be easy for Zhao Xun to trust him, Luo Lun still wanted to make some efforts.
Because if it continues to be so cold, Zhao Xun's attitude towards him and the Dragon Clan will only become even colder.
And if Zhao Xun gets closer to the Elf Clan, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the Dragon Clan.
The elves will repeat what they did in the continent of Ellen Lore in this world.
There is no doubt about this.
Luo Lun must warn Zhao Xun in time to keep him away from these elves who are full of lies and hypocrisy.
...
...
Two men were standing in the bamboo forest.
One is Zhao Xun and the other is Luo Lun.
At least so far, Luo Lun can still live in Zhongnan Mountain Haoran Academy, while the elves can only live outside the academy.
The distance advantage is his biggest advantage.
Lauren knew he had to grasp this.
"Speaking of which, why did you come to me today?"
Zhao Xun has indeed been deliberately avoiding Luo Lun recently.
This is not because he hates Lauren, but because he doesn't want to hear Lauren speak ill of the elves.
Similarly, Zhao Xun will also avoid Elf King Odyssey.
Because Odyssey card will also find the opportunity to severely criticize and slander the dragon clan.
There is obviously a huge prejudice between the two tribes, and they will try their best to slander each other whenever they get the chance.
This is certainly not what Zhao Xun wants to see.
He hopes both sides can unite.
Is it difficult to unite?
actually not.
As long as both sides can put aside their prejudices and stop looking at each other through colored glasses, unity can be achieved.
"I want to tell you a story."
Laurent changed his strategy this time and did not speak ill of the elves right away.
Because he knew very well that Zhao Xun didn't like hearing this.
Once Zhao Xun develops feelings of boredom and resistance, all Luo Lun's previous efforts will be in vain.
Laurent must control his emotions as much as possible and suppress his disgust for the elves.
Storytelling is a great way to start.
"A long time ago there was a talking crow, we called it the Prophet's Raven."
Luo Lun said tentatively, and seeing that Zhao Xun was listening attentively, he began to speak: "This prophet Dark Crow was trained by humans. It can predict what will happen in the future. One day this Dark Crow will
He opened his mouth to speak and said that within a hundred days there would be a bloody disaster for the royal family. The king at that time did not believe it and laughed it off. But two months later, a rebellion broke out in the kingdom. The great earl led his troops to invade the palace and killed the king, usurping the throne as
The new king."
Luo Lun smiled and said: "How do you think this new king dealt with the Dark Crow?"
Zhao Xun raised his eyebrows and said, "How did he deal with it?"
"The new king did not kill the crow of this language, but continued to nourish it with good food and drink. The crow would sometimes prophesy, but the new king still did not believe what he said."
After a pause, Lauren continued: "Because he wants to downplay the image of the Crow Prophet. Although he knows that what the Crow says is true, he must pretend not to know. Because he is the only one who behaves like this.
Only then will people believe that Dark Crow is talking nonsense. Only then will people forget his crime of usurping the throne."
Luo Lun spread his hands and said: "Time is the best medicine. It can heal everything and make people forget everything. After a hundred years, no one will remember that the new king is a usurper, just like no one knows that the king can speak.
The dark crow thought it was just a parrot imitating the language."
Good guy, you’ve gone all the way around just to talk about this?
Zhao Xun was not stupid, and he immediately heard what Luo Lun meant.
What he means is that the dragons are the crows of this language, and the elves are the new kings who have usurped the throne?
Could it be that the elves really have the ability to tamper with memories and cut out all the memories of their people’s betrayal of the Ellen Lore Alliance?
If this is the case, everything can be explained.
Taoist Priest Qinglian used mind-observation skills to observe the sea of consciousness of the two of them, and found that neither of them was lying.
The elves can erase the memories of their own people, making them mistakenly think that they have not betrayed the alliance, but they cannot erase the memories of other tribes, so the elves are still traitors in the memories of other tribes.
If what Lauren said is true, it can really be regarded as a very important discovery.
Zhao Xun only felt that his heart was in turmoil, as if the river was turning upside down.
It seems... the situation is indeed not simple.
But what is the purpose of the elves to clear their memories?
Are they trying to deceive themselves and others? Or do they think their behavior is disgusting even to themselves?
Zhao Xun doesn't know.
Maybe the royal family of elves don’t want their descendants to suffer the same pain and self-blame as they did?
But it’s too cruel to lie to yourself, right?
It seems that all the elves in the royal family are ruthless, and none of them can save fuel.
Zhao Xun thought about it carefully and felt that Luo Lun's words were quite reasonable and logical.
But he still had a doubt.
"If that's the case, why didn't you say it last time?"
"Last time?"
Luo Lun sneered and said, "Is that the time you found someone to invade our consciousness?"
"Well..."
Zhao Xun was a little embarrassed for a moment, it seemed that Luo Lun knew everything.
"Don't say it so harshly. We also need to make sure that what you are saying is the truth. Zhao Xun thought that it is really difficult to be a human being these days. No matter what you do, you may be criticized. Of course, Zhao Xun is not
If you think there is anything wrong with what he did, this is the responsibility of an academy disciple."
"I understand what you did, so I didn't stop it. As for why I didn't tell the truth at that time, even if I told you at the time, you would believe it? I'm afraid it would be counterproductive, right?"
Luo Lun's words made Zhao Xun fall into deep thought for a while.
Yes, what Luo Lun said is right. Considering the situation at that time, even if Luo Lun said exactly what he just said to Zhao Xun, I am afraid Zhao Xun would not believe it. Not only would Zhao Xun not believe it, but he would also
One might wonder if Laurent was deliberately telling lies in an attempt to get the academy to drive away the elves.
So they made the right choice by staying silent.
Waiting for the situation to calm down before speaking out is obviously a smarter choice.
I have to say that Luo Lun is very skilled in doing things, and it seems that he has experienced strong winds and waves.
"Give me some time, I'll discuss it with my senior brothers and sisters."
After Zhao Xun said that, he turned and left.
...
...
"That's just the way it is."
In the bamboo building, Zhao Xun spread his hands and explained to the brothers and sisters beside him: "The situation is indeed quite complicated, but judging from the current situation, I think it is unlikely that Luo Lun is lying. Because he
There is absolutely no need to lie. If he wanted to lie, why didn't he tell it when we used mindfulness."
"I really didn't expect that they could see through what I was doing."
Qinglian Taoist Priest Wu Quanyi sighed and said, "This little baby looks interesting."
Zhao Xun thought that Luo Lun just looked young, but in fact Luo Lun was in his thirties.
The current situation of the Dragon Clan is very dangerous, which prompts leaders like Luo Lun to shoulder heavy responsibilities at a young age, making them have to become steady and mature, and take one step to see ten steps.
If Laurent can't do this, the dragon clan won't need to talk about revival. It's good if it doesn't slip into the abyss.
Of course, Zhao Xun did not completely believe Luo Lun, but he just tended to believe what Luo Lun said.
Otherwise he wouldn't have brought this crucial information.
Because he still wants to hear everyone's opinions.
Third senior brother Long Qingquan pondered for a moment and said: "If everything is like what my junior brother said, the situation is indeed a bit complicated. But even if what the dragon clan said is true, there is no need for us to expel the elves. After all, if this is really the case.
, it shows that the elves have begun to reflect and believe that their original behavior was wrong. So what else do we need to worry about?"
The second senior sister Liu Yingying, who had just got married, frowned and said: "That's not what you said, third brother. I heard you say that, as long as you have a heart of repentance, what you have done before can be written off? I'm afraid there is no such thing in the world.
Makes sense, right?"
"Second Senior Sister, that's not what I meant."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan seems to have always been afraid of second senior sister Liu Yingying. When second senior sister Liu Yingying said this, he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Ahem, I think we can let the elves stay in the Zhongnan Mountains for a while first. As the saying goes, listen to what they say and watch what they do. Let's observe first. After all, we don't lose much by observing."
The senior sister Xiao Ning, who had always been silent and dignified, finally spoke up.
As the academy's senior sister, Xiao Ning's attitude was crucial during the days when Shan Zhang was recuperating in seclusion.
Many major decisions were actually made by Xiao Ning alone.
"Well, let's follow what the senior sister said and let's do some observation first. Anyway, although the elves have settled in Zhongnan Mountain, they have not entered the academy, so we still have enough backup."
Zhao Xun followed the words of senior sister Xiao Ning and said.
"But there's one thing you have to be careful about, little junior brother. If it's the opposite, and the dragon clan is the evil one, it will be the first to complain."
The last words of Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan made Zhao Xun's already relieved heart hang in his throat again.
Is there such an operation?
Probably not.
After all, after getting along with him for so long, Zhao Xun felt that Luo Lun was still a very upright person.
Although this person is a bit old-fashioned, he probably won't lie.
"Well, I'll pay more attention."
Zhao Xun still nodded.
After all, the third senior brother also has good intentions, and there is absolutely no need for him to brush off his good intentions.
...
...
Daming Palace, Zichen Palace.
The huge palace was decorated like a Buddhist temple by Emperor Xianlong's order.
As soon as you enter the temple, you can smell the strong smell of incense.
Master Huiyan felt very satisfied when he entered the hall.
This proves that his influence on Emperor Xianlong during this period was very successful, and Emperor Xianlong was eventually led by him to the path of respecting the Buddha.
And as long as Master Huiyan ensures that the following operations are normal, it won't be long before Buddhism's status in the Central Plains will surpass that of Taoism and firmly rank first.
This is what Master Huiyan dreams of, but he also knows that the closer he is to success, the less presumptuous he can be.
After all, Emperor Xianlong was also an old emperor who had been on the throne for decades, and he still looked at people with a very vicious eye.
If Master Huiyan showed even a hint of deliberateness and was caught by Emperor Xianlong, the consequences would be immeasurable.
Master Huiyan must not reveal his selfishness at this moment, and must make Emperor Xianlong think that he is completely and sincerely doing it for the good of the Zhou Dynasty.
"Tour Xi, the poor monk is here."
It was time for the usual lectures, and Master Huiyan arrived early.
Emperor Xianlong was reading scriptures freely when he looked up and saw Master Huiyan coming. A smile immediately appeared on his originally stern face.
"Master Huiyan is here, sit down quickly."
Emperor Xianlong pointed to the position beside him and said harmoniously.
Now Emperor Xianlong thought highly of Master Huiyan, and even ordered another chair to be placed not far from the throne.
In this way, when Master Huiyan came to lecture him, he could sit on this chair without having to stand so far away.
The feeling of giving lectures on the Bible is completely different between face-to-face lectures and long-distance lectures.
Master Huiyan looked at Emperor Xianlong intently and nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
"Tsk, tsk, having said that, I have a new understanding of the scriptures taught by the holy monk today. Holy monk, come and help me take a look."
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious for now. The poor monk came today and has something important to report to the holy monk."
"Um?"
Emperor Xianlong felt somewhat strange.
What happened to Master Huiyan today?
"Your Majesty, this poor monk is observing the sky at night. Something big may be happening in the near future."
Master Huiyan said very seriously.
"Ah, what's the big deal?"
Emperor Xianlong now has deep faith in Master Huiyan, so Master Huiyan said that something big will happen in the near future, and Emperor Xianlong became very nervous.
No news is the best news, and this is by no means a casual statement.
"The invading aliens are getting closer. They are probably less than 500 miles away from Chang'an."
Hiss, after hearing this, Emperor Xianlong was very nervous for a moment.
Less than five hundred miles?
So close?
A distance of 500 miles can be reached in two days by a rapid march. Even if the infantry moves slowly, a few days will be enough to reach it.
In this case, Chang'an will be greatly threatened in a short period of time.
"How could it be so fast? Holy monk, are we fully prepared now?"
Emperor Xianlong now placed all his hopes on Master Huiyan.
Master Huiyan has been making arrangements, and Emperor Xianlong knew this.
However, Emperor Xianlong didn't know the extent of Master Huiyan's layout.
Of course he was not panicked at first, but at this moment Emperor Xianlong felt somewhat uneasy.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, everything is under the control of this poor monk. But..."
Master Huiyan was breathing heavily when he spoke.
What he said before was nothing, but when he said it later, Emperor Xianlong almost choked to death.
"But what?"
Emperor Xianlong asked eagerly.
"But Zhongnan Mountain seems to have already seen an influx of two tribes."
"Zhongnan Mountain?"
Emperor Xianlong immediately realized what Master Huiyan meant.
"Shengseng means academy."
"That's right. The academy took them in. One of these two tribes is called the Elf tribe and the other is called the Dragon tribe. They are both extremely powerful tribes. They came to our world from the continent of Ellen Lore through the Dark Portal.
.Their purpose is obvious, which is to explore the new world and explore the habitat for their tribe."
Master Huiyan's words were very cryptic, but Emperor Xianlong still understood the meaning.
"Isn't this an intruder? I didn't expect that the academy would take in a group of intruders."
Emperor Xianlong clenched his fists and felt angry.
"This is really unreasonable. The academy is really going too far to deceive people."
Emperor Xianlong gritted his teeth and said, "Holy Monk, what should we do now?"
Unknowingly, Emperor Xianlong found that he had begun to rely on Master Huiyan.
No matter what big event happened, the first thing Emperor Xianlong thought of was Master Huiyan.
If Master Huiyan cannot come up with a reasonable solution, Emperor Xianlong will feel worried.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the poor monk has his own clever plan."
Master Huiyan clasped his hands together and said calmly: "The situation is far more complicated than what we saw. There are nearly ten tribes coming. However, their interests are different from each other. We can make a fuss about this. As long as they are not allowed to form an alliance and fight against each other.
We can easily resolve this crisis without even taking action."
"Um..."
Emperor Xianlong carefully studied Master Huiyan's words and found them very reasonable.
Dissension and division have been a common tactic used by military strategists since ancient times, and they have proven successful time and time again.
It's just that Emperor Xianlong was confused for a while and didn't think that it could also be used against the aliens from Ellen Lore.
It's actually not difficult to do this.
These alien races are certainly not monolithic; they have their own interests and demands.
When they come to this new world, they must be eager to seize every opportunity for expansion.
At this time, the original alien races in the Ellen Lore continent seemed very abominable.
"Well, it's easy to separate them. But who can be sent to do it? Moreover, these guys are currently in Zhongnan Mountain. Even if I send someone there, I'm afraid I won't be able to take advantage."
Emperor Xianlong obviously lacked confidence when he said this.
This is not his fault, because he had previously ordered Zheng Jie's adopted son to try to go to the academy to find out the truth, but in the end he didn't even see the headmaster.
This is too embarrassing.
Emperor Xianlong even felt that he had no face to mention this matter again for a while.
Now we have to send people to Zhongnan Mountain to create dissension, but it is too difficult.
But Master Huiyan obviously doesn’t think so.
He said calmly: "It's good. It's easy to say, but it's hard to say. The key depends on who does it."
Master Huiyan's words aroused Emperor Xianlong's interest for a long time.
"Should the holy monk go in person?"
"Of course."
Master Huiyan nodded and said, "The poor monk has long wanted to see with his own eyes how talented the people in the academy are."
"That's great, the holy monk will succeed immediately if he takes action!"
Emperor Xianlong was filled with ecstasy in his heart.
If Emperor Xianlong wanted to choose someone to trust, Master Huiyan would definitely be the best choice.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty must not leave the palace while the poor monk is away. There are restrictions in the palace to protect your majesty. But if your majesty leaves the palace and the restrictions are weakened, the poor monk is worried that there will be people with ulterior motives who will harm your majesty.
"
Master Huiyan's words moved Emperor Xianlong very much.
Even when Master Huiyan left for the academy, he did not forget the safety of Emperor Xianlong.
Master Huiyan will remember this friendship in his heart.
"Don't worry, holy monk. I will stay in the palace during this period and will not go anywhere. I also wish the holy monk a great victory."
Emperor Xianlong now desperately hopes that Master Huiyan can regain his position for him.
The dignified king of a country was bullied by the academy and became like this.
Emperor Xianlong only felt aggrieved.
Now he no longer has any gratitude towards the academy, only hatred is left.
He hoped that Master Huiyan could return everyone in the academy with their capital and profits this time!
...
...
Master Huiyan decided to go to the academy in person, but he did not intend to fight to the death.
Obviously, the current situation is very unfavorable to the Zhou court.
What Master Huiyan wants to do is to prevent foreign races and the academy from truly coming together.
If a foreign race forms an alliance with the academy, it will be a huge threat to the court no matter what.
Now if Master Huiyan wants the Buddhist sect in the Western Regions to surpass the Taoist sect in the Central Plains, the only person he can rely on is Emperor Xianlong.
Therefore, Master Huiyan must work hard no matter what.
It’s nice to enjoy the shade under the big tree.
If the great tree of Emperor Xianlong is gone, Buddhism in the Western Regions will lose more than just a protector.
Of course, Master Huiyan will not use brute force. What he wants to do is to sow discord and divide the alliance.
It is not easy to do this, so Master Huiyan will first observe in secret, find an excellent entry point, and then enter it just right.
...
...
Finally arrived in Chang'an.
When Prince Harry Botzman, the crown prince of the Kingdom of Casper, looked at the majestic city not far away, his heart surged for a moment.
Chang'an...Chang'an!
He finally saw this city that had haunted him in his dreams.
Equally excited was Baron Goos.
As the personal bodyguard of His Royal Highness and the chief royal knight.
Baron Goos is well aware of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Protecting the safety of His Royal Highness is the first thing he has to do, but at the same time, he is also looking forward to dealing with the powerful people in Chang'an City, especially their emperor.
But what happened next was far beyond their expectations.
When a group of knights surrounded Prince Harry Pottsman and Baron Guos and approached the city wall of Chang'an City, they immediately shot down a shower of arrows from the top of the city.
For a moment, the knights raised their shields one after another, not only to protect themselves but also to protect the safety of His Royal Highness.
During this trip to protect His Highness the Prince, they were given a death order, that is, they must protect His Highness' life no matter what happens.
This is their bottom line, a bottom line that cannot be violated!
Even a person with such a good character as Prince Harry Botzman would not feel much better if he was shot with a hail of arrows for no reason.
He flew into a rage and roared towards the city: "What are you doing? I'm here to discuss an alliance with you. Is this how you treat guests and future allies from afar? Is this how you treat guests?
?”
Of course, his roar did not elicit a response.
The distance was too far, and the soldiers at the top of the city might not be able to understand what he was saying.
Prince Harry Botzman's anger made Baron Goos also feel resentful.
"Your Highness, let's step back first, so as not to hurt you."
Baron Guos' words reminded Prince Harry of Botzman.
Yes, the most important thing for him now is to ensure his own safety.
It would not be beautiful if you lost your mind because you were angered by these untouchables.
Swords and guns are short-sighted. If he is really shot by a stray arrow, it will not be a joke.
Prince Harry Pottsman is very clear about the purpose of his trip, and safety is the first priority. If he cannot form an alliance, he can return to the Kingdom of Casper.
Although the continent of Ellen Lore is immersed in the power of demons and undead, the Kingdom of Casper is one of the few free places that is not controlled by the two.
With such a huge fortune waiting for him to inherit, how could Prince Harry Botzman allow himself to die in this foreign land in a daze?
"Withdraw, let's withdraw first!"
In the end, after some weighing, Prince Harry Botzman made the most conservative decision.
Although this decision is conservative, it is also very safe.
As the chief royal knight, Baron Guos also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as His Royal Highness is safe, his mission will be achieved.
Otherwise, if Prince Harry Botzman is really injured, he really doesn't know how to explain to His Majesty the King.
"Your Highness, let's retreat to the south first. There is a mountain not far south of Chang'an City called Zhongnan Mountain. There are many practitioners living in seclusion there, and it is a place rich in magic. Let's go there to rest for a while and then make a long-term plan."
"Well, just follow what you said."
At this moment, Prince Harry Botzman's good impression of the emperor of this world was completely wiped out.
All he wanted now was to find a safe place to wash his face and rest his feet.
...
...
Seeing a meandering cavalry team marching up the mountain along the rugged mountain road, Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou was dumbfounded in surprise.
He came out to get some fresh air and pick some herbs, and happened to encounter this scene.
What happened recently? Why are so many strange people flocking to Zhongnan Mountain?
Judging from the attire of these people, it is obvious that they are not from the Central Plains.
Are they from the Western Regions?
Or maybe it's the Southern Barbarians?
Lu Guangdou didn't dare to be careless, so he decided to take the news back to all the senior brothers and sisters as soon as possible.
...
...
"Sixth Senior Brother? Why are you so flustered and sweating profusely?"
Zhao Xun was really surprised when he saw this scene.
Because in his opinion, Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou has always been the most image-conscious.
It is definitely not easy for Sixth Senior Brother to lie like this.
"Did something big happen?"
"Junior brother...cavalry, so many cavalry..."
Seeing that the sixth senior brother was out of breath, Zhao Xun quickly poured a cup of herbal tea to the sixth senior brother and whispered softly: "Sixth senior brother, don't be anxious, take a sip of herbal tea to quench your thirst first."
Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou nodded, took the herbal tea and drank it in one gulp.
"I just went out to collect herbs and happened to see a lot of cavalry rushing towards Zhongnan Mountain. They walked all the way up the rugged mountain road. I don't know who they are or what their purpose is."
Good guy.
Zhao Xun was shocked just listening here.
cavalry?
Could it be that Emperor Xianlong sent cavalry to Zhongnan Mountain to cause trouble?
Nope.
Zheng Jie's adopted son Zheng Yan came to invade the country not long ago and was educated by the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan. He should have brought back a pessimistic signal to Emperor Xianlong.
Although Emperor Xianlong was not a man, he was still very cautious.
It is unlikely that he would take such a big risk and forcefully mobilize troops to besiege Zhongnan Mountain before he was sure.
After all, this is a world of high-level martial arts. Everything can be solved by relying on numbers rather than relying on the number of people.
As long as Emperor Xianlong was not sure whether the mountain chief was in the academy or not, he would not dare to act rashly.
If not Emperor Xianlong, who could have mobilized so many cavalry?
Zhao Xun really couldn't think of it for a while.
You must know that this is Gyeonggi Province. Even if someone has the power to mobilize troops, they would not dare to be so blatant, right?
Is this because he is impatient and takes the initiative to use himself as a target, allowing the officials and censors of science and technology to criticize and criticize at will?
Of course, there is another possibility that this cavalry is not the cavalry of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Are they the barbarian cavalry?
This was Zhao Xun's first reaction.
Because barbarians are all good at riding and archery, especially the barbarians in the northern grasslands, their children began to practice riding and archery from a very young age.
This is no joke.
Oftentimes practice makes perfect.
The reason why the people of the Central Plains are not as good at riding and shooting as the people of the grasslands is because they are a farming people and place more emphasis on farming and settling down in one place.
But this has both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that the economy will indeed develop, but the disadvantage is that the martial spirit will slowly deteriorate. As a result, they can only take a defensive stance when facing the invasion of prairie barbarians.
Once you fall into passive defense, the enemy can take the absolute initiative.
The people of the Central Plains are like fish and meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by others.
What is even more sad is that at the beginning, the people of the Central Plains may have had some remnants of their martial spirit. But as time went by, this martial spirit slowly deteriorated, and in the end there was not much left.
In other words, the combat effectiveness of the Central Plains people is getting weaker and weaker.
The grassland people are becoming more and more powerful, and they can train their offspring through constant harassment, making them more and more proficient in bow and horse.
In the long run, this is not an option.
But Zhao Xun knew that these things could not be solved by just worrying about him.
This is something engraved in the bones of the Central Plains tribes and grassland tribes, and it is deep-rooted.
"Stop talking about this, let's go take a look first."
No matter what, what you hear is false and what you see is true.
Zhao Xun still had to see with his own eyes what happened before he could feel at ease.
Otherwise, just listening to what Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou said here would always feel unreal to him.
...
...
But it was said that Zhao Xun was taken all the way to the mountainside by his sixth brother Lu Guangdou. When he saw the cavalry team that was winding like a python, he couldn't help but gasp.
Others may not be able to distinguish their attire, but Zhao Xun can.
Zhao Xun knew very well that this was the typical medieval European cavalry uniform.
There is obviously no such cavalry in this time and space.
So there is only one explanation left, that is, these cavalry also traveled through the Dark Portal.
They do not belong to this world, but to the continent of Ellen Lore!
hiss!
Zhao Xun gasped almost instinctively.
This is too scary.
If everything is really like this, it means that another tribe has left the continent of Ellen Lore to open up a new world.
Unexpectedly, the scenes in Zhao Xun's dream reappeared one after another...
This is really something you cannot believe in.
"Junior brother? Junior brother?"
Seeing Zhao Xun's stunned look, Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou asked with concern: "Junior Brother, are you okay?"
Lu Guangdou smiled bitterly and said: "Can I not be worried? Look at you, you were almost stunned just now. What is going on? Do you know where these cavalry come from?"
"Um..."
Zhao Xun nodded lightly and said: "These cavalry come from another world, which is the continent of Ellen Lore."
"Alan Lore Continent? Is it the world connected to the Dark Portal and parallel to our world?"
Lu Guangdou had also heard Shan Zhang and Zhao Xun mention it many times, so he instinctively became vigilant when he heard the word Allen Lore Continent.
"Yes, that's the continent."
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly and said: "First the dragon clan, then the elves. If I guess correctly, this should be the human clan on the continent of Ellen Lore."
"So Junior Brother and the others are all heading towards Chang'an, why are they all rushing towards Zhongnan Mountain?"
Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou asked in confusion.
Zhao Xun thought to himself: “If you ask me, who should I ask?”
I am also very helpless.
He spread his hands and said: "Sixth Brother, I really don't know very well, but it is obvious that they also want one more possibility. After all, the continent of Ellen Lore has been polluted by the Corruptor. Demons and the Undead cannot be underestimated.
Look, even dragons and elves have to come to the new world to explore, and the human race there must be under great pressure. So I'm not surprised that they came, but I didn't expect so many people to come all at once."
Sure enough, people are the most capable of giving birth.
The other tribes are all sparsely populated, especially the dragon tribe, which has declined to this point.
In comparison, the descendants of the human race are like leeks. After one crop is cut, another crop will pop up. There is no need to worry about lack of people.
"Oh, what a crime. Junior brother, what are you saying these undead tribe and demons are doing? Can't they live in harmony? They have to enslave other tribes. No one can bear this."
Of course, Lu Guangdou felt that this kind of thing could not be tolerated. The reason was very simple. The slogan of the academy was the world's great harmony. And the foundation of great harmony is harmony.
The Corruptor Undead and Demons are completely destroying harmony and even trying to eliminate other groups.
This is no joke. When it comes to genocide, other tribes on the continent of Ellen Lore will definitely try their best to fight to the death.
Even rabbits will bite people when they are anxious, let alone people?
Lu Guangdou also firmly believes in another slogan of the academy: a hard fist means truth.
Since the Corruptor wants to annex and eliminate other tribes, other tribes will inevitably rise up to resist.
This is a matter of life and death, and no one will be cowardly.
"Third Senior Brother, I think we should be more cautious. Although Zhongnan Mountain is large, the space is limited. If more than a dozen tribes come here at once, Zhongnan Mountain will have to be filled up."
Nowadays, only the dragon tribe is settled in the academy. If the elves later want to settle in Zhongnan Mountain, they can only find another place to settle in other places besides the academy.
This is not bad, at least those who come early can easily find a place to stay.
Those who come late will be in trouble and may have to rack their brains for a piece of territory.
What Zhao Xun fears most is that different tribes will fight for the place to stay in Zhongnan Mountain.
If something like this happened, it would be completely contrary to what Zhao Xun expected.
Zhao Xun originally wanted the academy to act as a middleman to bring together the justice tribes from the Ellen Lore continent to form a powerful alliance.
But now it seems that it is not easy to do this.
The reason is also very simple: there are too few resources and there is not enough resources at all.
Driven by interests, in order to obtain enough benefits for the people of the tribe, it would be good if the major tribes could not conflict, but put aside their prejudices and form an alliance?
What they couldn't do in the Elen Lore continent, now they actually want to do it in Great Zhou?
But Zhao Xun couldn't give up so easily, he still had to give it a try.
What if it succeeds?
"I listen to you, junior brother, but I don't think we can blindly indulge them. After all, this is the foundation of our academy, and we should retain the most basic pure land."
...
...
Zhao Xun felt that what Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou said was very good, but in the end he still had to come forward to deal with the human race from the Ellen Lore continent.
Not only because Zhao Xun is very eloquent, but also because Zhao Xun has a unique skill that no one else has - language talent.
Zhao Xun was surprised to find that Zhao Xun could understand the languages spoken by the tribes from the Ellen Lore continent, whether they were dragons or elves.
And people from these two tribes can completely understand what Zhao Xun said.
If it were just one tribe, Zhao Xun thought it might be a coincidence, but if both tribes were like this, it made Zhao Xun think deeply.
Later, Zhao Xun was even more surprised to find that except for him, the senior brothers and sisters in other academies could not communicate with the dragons and elves without any barriers.
They didn't speak the same language at all and couldn't communicate at all. They had to use Zhao Xun as a translator!
This shows that it is not that the tribes from the Ellen Lore continent share the same language as the Great Zhou, it is just because of Zhao Xun's individual uniqueness.
It's like...it's like Zhao Xun comes with a simultaneous interpreter, allowing Zhao Xun to switch languages freely and smoothly.
In fact, Zhao Xun is still speaking his mother tongue, but this invisible simultaneous translator can convert his mother tongue for him into a language that can be understood by all the tribes on the continent of Ellen Lore.
Such as elven language, dragon language, human language, dwarf language, orc language, troll language and so on.
Of course, this is just Zhao Xun's speculation so far.
But he did feel that this speculation was very real and reasonable.
Of course, he still needs to conduct some verification.
And the best way to verify it is to face the knights in front of you.
"Who are you and where are you from?"
Although Zhao Xun already had a rough guess in his mind, he still wanted to ask it himself.
It was still the same routine he used when asking the elves last time.
Sure enough, the knight riding a white horse said solemnly: "We come from the continent of Ellen Lore, the Kingdom of Casper."
really!
Zhao Xun can completely understand what the other party is saying without any cognitive impairment!
It seems that his guess is right. Zhao Xun really has an invisible simultaneous interpreter in his body that can translate completely different types of languages.
In this way, he can easily understand completely different language systems.
"What are you doing here?"
Since there is no communication barrier, Zhao Xun can continue to ask according to the routine he has prepared.
Zhao Xun had already prepared the draft, so he could simply publish the series of questions.
"We are going to see the new world and form alliances with new friends to defend against a common powerful enemy."
"What is your strong enemy?"
"They are demons and undead, from another world. They invaded Ellen Lore, and we resisted desperately, but the kingdom is still being eroded. Now it is only a group of magicians that can barely hold them back.
But we still have to make more plans. If we do nothing and just wait, sooner or later the country will be destroyed."
Baron Guos answered very simply and directly, without any reservation at all.
Because he knew very well that he had to be honest at this time.
If he acts too restrained, the other party will definitely see the flaw.
That way even the most carefully crafted lies will be exposed.
And since we want to cooperate, there is no need to lie.
"You are not the first tribe to come here. Two tribes have already arrived before you came here."
Seeing how frank the other party was, Zhao Xun also spread his hands and said.
"What?"
Baron Guos really didn't expect that anyone would arrive before them.
You must know that the human race was the first tribe to predict the opening of the Dark Portal, and the Casper Kingdom was the first among the human kingdoms to know the news.
From the moment he learned the news, Baron Guos asked His Majesty the King to send out troops as soon as possible.
But he didn't expect that His Majesty the King not only agreed to his suggestion, but also ordered Crown Prince Harry Postman to lead the delegation.
For a time, Baron Guos' pressure increased sharply.
It would be fine if someone else went, but Prince Harry Botzman is the crown prince and is the hope for the future of the Casper Kingdom.
In this case, Baron Goos must ensure the absolute safety of Prince Harry Botzman.
Not only must it not be life-threatening, it must not be injured, and it must not even lose a hair.
Therefore, while ensuring the marching speed, Baron Goos also had to consider whether Prince Harry Botzman could withstand such intensity.
Fortunately, Prince Harry Postman performed well from beginning to end and did not disappoint him.
But what does the man in front of me mean when he says that two tribes have arrived in this world ahead of time?
How could someone come faster than them?
"This is impossible, you are lying!"
Baron Goos's face turned red and he looked very angry.
"Why should I lie? Everything I say is true!"
Zhao Xun sneered and said: "If you don't believe it, I can call their representatives to meet with you. You may even know each other. One of them is the leader of the dragon clan, Luo Lun, and the other is the elf king Odyssey.
"
"What..."
Baron Goos had no choice but to believe it now.
Of course he had heard of these two names.
Both of them are influential figures in the Ellen Lore continent, and it can be said that everyone knows about them.
"Are they really coming?"
"They are all in Zhongnan Mountain now."
Zhao Xun's frank and generous response made the situation a little awkward for a while.
Baron Goos swallowed several times before he managed to calm down.
Because in his opinion, this can really be considered a big event.
"Have you formed an alliance yet?"
"It doesn't count."
Zhao Xun spread his hands.
"What does it mean to count..."
Baron Goos was obviously not very satisfied with this answer.
He paused and said, "Is there an alliance?"
"It's considered an alliance. But people in our world don't value the so-called situation so much. We value actual actions more. Listen to their words and watch their actions. Whether this alliance can continue depends on their subsequent performance.
Why, you also want to form an alliance, right?"
"Um..."
Unconsciously, Baron Guos found that he had completely fallen into Zhao Xun's rhythm, and was led by Zhao Xun.
Of course, this did not happen randomly, but because Zhao Xun mastered the negotiation skills and deliberately laid some traps for Baron Guos to jump into during the conversation with Baron Guos.
What surprised Zhao Xun was that Baron Guos actually jumped.
No wonder Zhao Xun...
"So let's talk about the terms."
Zhao Xun smiled slightly and said, "What can you provide?"
Since we want to form an alliance, since we want to talk about cooperation, both parties must have something to offer, and only one party cannot pay. Such alliance and cooperation are destined to not last long.
Zhao Xun knew this very well, so instead of getting into a quarrel over this trivial matter later, it would be better to make the matter clear from the beginning.
Once you clarify this point, many things will become simpler in the future.
Baron Guos was silent for a long time.
He knew what Zhao Xun meant at first, but he couldn't give a direct answer.
Because after all, his identity is only the chief royal knight, and Prince Harry Botzman has to make the decision.
Baron Guos then turned to Prince Harry Botzman, his eyes full of longing.
He hoped that His Highness the Prince could understand the current situation and give a price that would satisfy the other party.
After all, the current situation for the Cavaliers is already very unfavorable to them.
The emperor of this world seems wary of them and unwilling to form an alliance.
Their opponents, on the other hand, poured into Zhongnan Mountain, and they must have suffered similar experiences.
This is no joke. You must know that resources are limited, especially high-quality alliance resources. If the opponent seizes the opportunity, it will be much more difficult for them to form an alliance.
Therefore, the best choice at the moment is to provide as favorable conditions as possible to make the other party agree to form an alliance.
In this way, at least they have a place to stay, and they will no longer be herded around like sheep by others.
Hey, it's not easy. It's really miserable to be able to get to this point.
Prince Harry Botzman obviously understood Baron Guos's eyes. He smiled lightly and said: "We can provide the most powerful cavalry team, experienced witches and magicians."
These are the most powerful golden signs of the Casper Kingdom.
Zhao Xun nodded and said: "Huh? So it seems that the price is not bad?"
"Of course, I have always been very generous to my allies. Don't worry, the cooperation between us will be very pleasant."
Zhao Xun quickly evaluated the feasibility of cooperating with the other party in his mind.
In his opinion, this human army is indeed very powerful, and the strength of a kingdom with such a powerful army must not be bad.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will understand that who can resist demons and undead invaders without two brushes?
Most of those smaller and weaker countries have now been destroyed and have become slaves of the corruptors.
It sounds cruel, but this is the reality.
Of course, Zhao Xun would not agree immediately. The reason was very simple, which meant that he had to bear tremendous pressure.
Colleges will also be under tremendous pressure.
This human army was many times more numerous than the elves and dragons combined. It was really terrifying.
Is it really bearable for so many people to come in all at once?
Zhao Xun didn't know, but judging from the current situation, it was indeed a bit unpredictable.
But this ally is indeed unprecedentedly powerful.
With their participation, Zhao Xun felt a lot more confident.
Many times success or failure is just a matter of a thought, and a simple decision may determine a lot of things.
Therefore, Zhao Xun must think carefully and never make decisions blindly and easily.
After evaluating and thinking for a long time, Zhao Xun still felt that accepting them as an ally would bring greater benefits.
He nodded and said: "Okay, happy cooperation. But there are too many of you, so I'm afraid we can't all move into the academy. But Zhongnan Mountain is very big, so you can live elsewhere in the mountain."
Prince Harry Botsman frowned when he heard this.
"What do you mean, you mean we can't live in the academy and must live in the mountains?"
Zhao Xun wondered if this guy couldn't understand, or was there a language communication barrier?
Zhao Xun felt that he had made it very clear.
"Yes, what I mean is that our academy no longer has such a big place for you to stay. You'd better find a place to stay in the mountain col. It seems that there are several thousand of you, so you need some snacks.
.”
Zhao Xun said it calmly, but Prince Harry Boseman looked very angry.
What does it mean?
The two sides have just formed an alliance. Is this his attitude?
Is this the attitude toward allies?
"I'm afraid this is not good?"
Prince Harry Botzman said in a deep voice: "We traveled thousands of miles from another world to come to your world. Is this how you treat guests?"
Zhao Xun spread his hands and said: "I'm sorry, I also want to take you all to live in the academy, but there is really no such condition. The academy only covers such a large area and the rooms are limited. Even if you come in, there will be no place to live.
Do you want to live in a bamboo forest? Yes, you have traveled thousands of miles from one world to this new world, but everything must be done on a first-come, first-served basis. Someone has settled in earlier than you. If you come later, you will have to settle down.
Accept it."
Zhao Xun felt that there was nothing wrong with his logic. Since he was late, he would honestly move out and live outside. What was the point of being pretentious here?
"..."
Prince Harry Botzman remained silent.
I have to say that he thinks what Zhao Xun said makes sense.
But it is still very difficult for him to accept the reality and live outside the academy.
The reason is simple. They have been living in the open for too long.
Before coming to Chang'an City, he could comfort himself. After arriving in Chang'an, he could live in a big house with the best conditions.
But after he actually arrived in Chang'an, he realized that everything was not as he imagined.
He couldn't even enter Chang'an City!
In desperation, Harry Postman could only choose to go to Zhongnan Mountain to try his luck.
Originally, they thought the result would be okay, but who would have expected that the other party would not allow them to stay in the academy.
So they still have to camp in the mountains, which is too difficult.
Prince Harry Botzman didn't know what to say, and instinctively looked at Baron Guos aside.
Baron Guos also looked a little embarrassed.
This result was indeed beyond his expectation.
But to be honest, this is not something unacceptable.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves.
Now that you're on someone else's territory, you have to bow your head.
Here it is not the prince of Casper Kingdom who has the final say, but the disciples of the academy.
Zhao Xun has actually expressed some sincerity, but Prince Harry Botzman has been in a high position for a long time, and his long-term pampered life made him unable to accept the other party's seemingly harsh request for a while.
But now they really don't have the qualifications to negotiate terms, so accepting it is undoubtedly the best choice.
"All right."
In the end, Prince Harry Botzman chose to relent.
Because it seemed to him that the benefits gained from choosing to accept were far greater than refusing.
The alliance at least made them not afraid of ordinary foreign enemies, and at least they were able to live in Zhongnan Mountain.
This is still very critical.
...
...
After returning to the Bamboo House, Zhao Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not easy, it's really not easy.
He was indeed under great pressure this time. He had to act very strong in front of so many people, which was really not Zhao Xun's style. In comparison, third senior brother Long Qingquan was very good at doing this kind of thing.
Because the character of the third senior brother Long Qingquan is like this.
It is a pity that the third senior brother Long Qingquan is playing the role of the mountain leader and it is not appropriate to show up, so Zhao Xun can only reluctantly come forward to support the scene.
"Third Senior Brother, Sixth Senior Brother, I have arranged everything. There are too many of them, so I sent them to live outside the academy for this reason."
"Well done, little junior brother!"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan gave Zhao Xun a thumbs up.
In his opinion, Zhao Xun did handle this matter very well.
Although there is still room and space in the academy, Long Qingquan still feels that it is more pleasant and comfortable to get along with his own people than to get along with so many strangers.
Those people from the Dragon Clan were already the limit that Long Qingquan could bear. And it took him a long time to really adapt.
It's really impossible for him to get along with so many people at once.
Instead of forcing yourself, it is better to make it clear from the beginning and state the bottom line so that many things will be easier in the future.
"Well, listen to their words and watch their actions. Although they seem to be very good now, I think we'd better observe them again."
Zhao Xun is still very cautious. In his opinion, it remains to be seen whether this alliance can finally take shape.
If the other party sincerely wants to form an alliance, they will definitely behave in a gregarious manner.
And if the other party behaves unruly, then Zhao Xun and the others will have to reconsider the alliance.
Zhao Xun and the others really need allies, but they don't need an uncle.
So he had to carefully evaluate these human knights.
"Third Senior Brother, there is one more thing I want to explain to you. This human race comes from the Kingdom of Casper. According to them, their kingdom not only has knights, but also witches, wizards, magicians, etc... If it is true
If that’s the case, it’s indeed a very good alliance.”
Zhao Xun thought to himself that although the senior brothers might not know the situation, he knew it very well.
Magicians, wizards, and witches are the most powerful group of mages in the Western fantasy system.
If this mage group can be formed, there will be no need to fear the high priest of the Demon Sect, nor the undead tribe and demons.
There is a saying that only magic can defeat magic.
The fact that the Kingdom of Casper has been able to persist for such a long time despite the repeated invasion here speaks volumes.
It is not an easy thing for any life to survive, let alone a kingdom?
Existence is reasonable, and Zhao Xun firmly believes that the survival of the magic community in the Casper Kingdom is the most critical.
Otherwise, how could these knights alone be able to fight against the demons and undead?
That is simply a dimensionality reduction attack, okay?
So once you have such a powerful ally, maybe the mountain leader won't even have to take action?
Zhao Xun wasn't sure, but he felt it was very likely.
"Yeah, it sounds awesome."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan nodded and said: "Then let's observe for the time being. But I feel cautiously optimistic. Sometimes too many people are not necessarily a good thing. If there are too many allies, sometimes there will be mutual blame.
Isn't this why the three monks had no water to drink?"
Good guy...
Third senior brother Long Qingquan really understands.
Indeed, buck-passing does exist in the major leagues.
The advantage of a grand alliance is its ability to withstand powerful enemies.
But the most important thing is that it serves as a deterrent.
If we really fight with real swords and guns, many people will definitely not use their full strength, but will fish in troubled waters.
Alas, there is no way. If the water is clear, there will be no fish.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Since it's impossible to truly stay out of it, just blend in.
"Well, it doesn't matter. We are on the observing side anyway, so we won't suffer any loss."
...
...
Laurent, the leader of the dragon clan, was in a bad mood.
With the influx of elves, humans also came to Zhongnan Mountain.
Is Zhongnan Mountain really such a geomantic treasure? Is it so attractive?
Lauren couldn't figure it out.
But judging from the current actual situation, this is indeed the case.
So Lauren must re-examine the current situation.
This is definitely not good news for the Dragon Clan.
The more allies there are, the more interests are involved.
The Dragon Clan hopes that it will be the simplest possible situation, rather than a bunch of allies fighting over who contributes and who benefits.
They had already suffered a loss once when they were under Alan Lore, don't they still have a long memory?
But Lauren knew that it was meaningless for him to speak out at this time.
Because the academy has always had a wait-and-see attitude.
The academy disciples, including Zhao Xun, have made it clear that they cannot refuse other potential alliance members.
The rapid expansion of the alliance will bring about a variety of problems. Luo Lun has already stated this problem in advance. If the academy does not pay attention to it, there is nothing he can do.
We can only take a look at it for now.
Hope there will be a good result.
If the undead and demons invade slowly, they will still have enough time to adjust. Otherwise, judging from the current situation, the Academy Alliance may not be able to withstand the full blow of the Corruptor.
Time, what is needed most now is time.
…
…
It's getting foggy.
The mountain leader looked at the mist rising from the academy mountain col with mixed feelings in his heart.
The reason why he chose to settle in Zhongnan Mountain in the first place was because of the clouds and mist here.
The clouds and mist represent the fairy spirit.
At that time, the mountain chief only wanted to become an immortal.
But now it seems that the idea at that time was a bit ridiculous.
What difference will it make if you become an immortal? You will still have troubles and confusions.
It's nothing more than a little more pleasure of being proudly superior to the world.
But this is precisely a sign of weakness.
The more empty people are inside, the more they will pursue these things that indicate something, but in fact they have no meaning.
Today's mountain leaders prefer a down-to-earth atmosphere and a pyrotechnic atmosphere.
The smoke of fireworks made him feel real and made him feel that he was truly alive.
Therefore, he will do his best to protect these beautiful things. No matter who wants to invade, the mountain chief will fight back severely.
…
…
The dark wizard Augustine stared at the rising smoke in the village, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
In his opinion this might be a good start.
"Maybe it's worth taking the risk this time."
Augustine knew very well that there were tribes who had arrived in Chang'an before them, but in his opinion this was nothing.
Because those who arrive first only have the upper hand, it remains to be seen which direction the battle will take.
On the contrary, those who arrive later can handle it more safely because they have more time to think.
"The winner takes everything, the loser loses everything. This war will decide everything."
Because dark wizards can predict some things that are about to happen in the future, they know how fierce the war that will break out in the near future will be.
"Will the academy intervene?"
The High Priest of the Demon Sect on the side groaned in a low voice.
"certainly."
Augustine said seriously: "The Academy will play a decisive role in this war. They will directly affect the direction of the entire war."
"Where's the mountain chief?"
Compared to the academy, the high priest of the Demon Sect is obviously more concerned about the mountain chief himself.
"Of course the mountain chief will also take action."
Augustine said without hesitation: "The mountain commander will not only take action, but also establish the situation. The reason why I can't see the final result clearly is because I don't know how far the mountain commander can perform."
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
The High Priest of the Demon Sect felt dumbfounded for a moment.
"Shan Zhang's injury seems to be recovering well."
"It should be. In fact, I feel strange. It stands to reason that the mountain leader was seriously injured and could not recover so quickly. This is unreasonable. But there are many things in this world that are unreasonable."
Augustine sighed and said: "So we don't have to worry about it anymore."
"Yes, what's the point of worrying about this? After all, we are going to Chang'an ourselves. Since we have to fight, we should fight as fast as possible. There is no need for mother-in-law and mother-in-law."
"Well, whether the mountain chief joins the war or not, it won't affect our original plan."
Augustine said solemnly: "We must resolutely implement the established plan. No one can affect the will of the God of Darkness."
"Yes, the God of Darkness is above, and he must bless us to succeed. As long as this happens, the world will be shrouded in darkness."
…
…
It's dark, and the dark night makes people feel instinctively scared.
Because the night is full of unknowns, most people cannot remain calm in such an environment. Even the strongest warriors will tremble in the darkness and silence.
However, Master Huiyan does not feel afraid.
Because he has night vision that far exceeds that of ordinary people, Master Huiyan can clearly see every detail and everything that happens in the dark night.
"This is the academy, it's really very spiritual."
He came to Zhongnan Mountain alone, looked at the archway not far away, and faintly uttered a few words.
Master Huiyan has always wanted to have a good fight with Master Shan to see who is the real number one in the world.
Most people think that the mountain chief is the best in the world, but Master Huiyan actually disagrees.
The two of them have never really fought each other, so why do they feel this way?
Why?
Therefore, Master Huiyan must use practical actions to prove that his strength is no worse than Shan Chang.
But this time he may not be able to meet the mountain chief.
Moreover, Master Huiyan knew very well that the purpose of his trip was to sow discord.
In this way, he cannot be too fond of fighting.
Moreover, even if we fought against the mountain leader while he was injured, even if he won, he would still be defeated.
Master Huiyan jumped onto a high stone like an eagle.
Standing at a high place, he could clearly see every move in the academy.
Master Huiyan took a quick glance and determined that most of the people in the academy had already rested.
Intrusion is the wisest choice at this time.
Master Huiyan jumped directly through the air wall between the archways without hesitation.
The wall of energy that can keep ordinary practitioners out is useless in front of Master Huiyan.
Master Huiyan landed lightly on the ground and took steps like a ghost.
Master Huiyan's Qinggong is so good that even if he steps on the water, there won't be any traces.
Walking freely through the academy, Master Huiyan did not feel any resistance.
As long as the mountain leader doesn't take action, he really doesn't feel much pressure.
"The aura here is getting stronger and stronger."
Master Huiyan can sense where in the academy the spiritual energy is the strongest.
Generally speaking, the heavier the spiritual energy, the more powerful people are concentrated.
As a super master, Master Huiyan knows very well what the spiritual energy of practitioners from all major sects tastes like.
But he could immediately smell the alien smell mixed among the students in the academy.
These auras are not very strong, but they are obvious.
What Master Huiyan wants to do is to sow discord, so he must go to a place with a strong smell of aliens.
After a while, Master Huiyan successfully arrived in front of a bamboo building.
The style of this bamboo building was not much different from other bamboo buildings, so Master Huiyan wondered whether he had found the wrong one.
He sniffed it again to confirm, and found that the smell of spiritual energy was indeed not that of a scholar. The smell was very strange, and it must be that of a foreign race.
Master Huiyan walked through the wall without hesitation. The moment he entered the bamboo building, he was stunned.
This is a tribe he has never seen before. This person has faint dragon scales on his body. Although it is not obvious, you can still see it if you look closely.
Master Huiyan tried hard to calm down, because he knew very well that he must not make any noise or make too much noise at this time, otherwise it would be easy to alert others.
He moved gently to the dragon's bedside, then stretched out a hand and spread out countless black hairsprings towards the dragon.
These gossamers invaded the dragon clan's sea of consciousness and quickly completed their occupation.
It won't be long before the sea of consciousness is filled with memories of hatred.
Strictly speaking, these memories are not imposed on the Dragon Clan by Master Huiyan, but are hidden deep in the Dragon Clan's sea of consciousness.
It's just that sometimes it doesn't show up, but it is real.
In other words, Master Huiyan just stimulated his memory, allowing him to recall this memory more clearly.
Once the seeds of hatred take root and germinate, they are unstoppable and can quickly grow into giant trees.
As a result, the various alien races will bite each other fiercely.
