Chapter 338: The Ancient Giants (Nearly 20,000 Words Super Chapter)
Although Zhao Xun’s words were very sincere, they were really heartbreaking.
Even Yao Yan, the always kind Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal, couldn't help coughing twice and said: "Ahem, okay, okay, junior brother, I understand what you mean. I'm going to give this white lotus mask to the third child.
Go, hope he likes it."
Zhao Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
It's not easy. It's really not easy.
The Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan is finally gone.
If he really used this White Lotus Mask from Laoshizi, he would really be famous.
You must know that once the flag of this white lotus mask is set, it is really difficult to remove it in a short time.
Of course, this is not what worries Zhao Xun the most.
After all, this mask was originally made by Yao Yan specifically for the second senior sister.
As a result, now the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan has specially used it for Zhao Xun. Will Second Senior Sister feel uncomfortable?
Zhao Xun thinks this possibility is still very high.
After all, with the extremely arrogant character of Second Senior Sister, she can really do anything.
Well, Zhao Xun just made an extremely correct decision. If there was even the slightest deviation in his judgment just now, I'm afraid things would lead to a completely irreversible ending.
It's really difficult to get along in the world of martial arts.
Even when you are getting along with your own people, you need to ensure that your brain is running at high speed at all times.
Zhao Xun tried his best to calm down and was about to go back to the house to rest for a while when he saw Luo Lun coming.
Um?
As the only foreign race stationed in the academy, the Dragon Clan has a somewhat special status.
Luo Lun is also a good friend of Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun is also preparing to communicate with Luo Lunduo, hoping that the Dragon Clan can play an important role in the upcoming war.
"Lauren, why are you here?"
"Well, I have something to discuss with you."
Luo Lun cleared his throat and said, "It's a very important matter, let's talk about it inside."
Seeing Luo Lun acting so serious, Zhao Xun was really surprised.
In his impression, Laurent had always been a model of talking and laughing. If he suddenly became like this, could something important really happen?
Zhao Xun thinks this possibility is still very high.
You must know that Luo Lun is the master who does not go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. As long as he is willing to take the initiative to come, something must have happened.
"Okay, let's talk inside."
Zhao Xun turned sideways and let Luo Lun into the bamboo building.
This is a courtesy that belongs to the master.
Compared to the luxurious Duke's mansion, this bamboo building can be described as simple.
Even if it is more exaggerated, there is no problem in describing the house as bare walls.
But Zhao Xun didn't feel any shabby.
In his opinion, a poor family means a poor family. Money cannot be used to measure happiness.
He admitted that money is important, but money cannot be equated with happiness.
At least in Zhao Xun's view, freedom is the most important thing when a person is satisfied with food and clothing.
What is freedom?
Freedom is not about doing what you want to do, but not doing what you want not to do.
Zhao Xun doesn't want to work or get involved now, so he doesn't have to do these things.
Because he has an extremely strong support behind him, and that is the academy.
So Zhao Xun is very satisfied with his current life.
There is no absolute perfection in life.
Zhao Xun is already very satisfied with his current living situation.
"Well, my room is a bit messy, don't worry about it."
"It doesn't matter. This is how life is."
Luo Lun seemed to understand Zhao Xun very well, spreading his hands and smiling slightly.
Zhao Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, this was the first time he invited Laurent to his home.
The first time I was really a little nervous.
Although Luo Lun is already his relatively good friend, it is obvious that he is not yet at the level where Jia Xingwen is prosperous.
Zhao Xun doesn't have to worry about Brother Jia and Xiao Wangcai.
But Loren
After all, the two of them have not known each other for too long. If Luo Lun was rashly allowed to see his doghouse at this time, wouldn't Luo Lun think that Zhao Xun's life is very sloppy?
No way, right?
If this is the case, it will be too difficult for Zhao Xun.
Of course, Luo Lun's words made Zhao Xun relax.
He found that everything was just overthinking.
Lauren is pretty good.
"Sit down, don't be restrained, just like you are at home."
Zhao Xun called Luo Lun to sit down, then stood up to pour water.
Luo Lun didn't like drinking tea very much, so Zhao Xun specially made milk tea for him.
Milk tea really has no boundaries, and basically everyone in the world likes it.
If one cup of milk tea cannot conquer a person, then use two cups.
Two cups of milk tea is enough to make a person feel happy.
Sure enough, when Lauren saw the milk tea, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Tsk, tsk."
"Brother Luo Lun, come and try this. This is a new drink I have recently developed, called pearl milk tea. Let me explain first, this pearl is not a real pearl, but a kind of ingredient. This kind of
The scientific name of the ingredient is taro balls."
Zhao Xun was afraid that Luo Lun might misunderstand the meaning of pearl milk tea, so he quickly explained to the side.
"Well"
Lauren realized it in an instant.
He nodded silently and said: "Pearl milk tea, it's wonderful. Let me try it first."
Lauren didn't mean to be polite at all. He picked up the pearl milk tea and put it into his mouth. He took a big sip, and his mouth was instantly filled with the fragrance of milk.
He chewed the taro balls with great flavor. He had never experienced this feeling before.
It's really amazing.
Lauren couldn't describe this wonderful feeling for a moment.
"How did you do this? Your talent is too high."
Facing Luo Lun's praise, Zhao Xun felt a little embarrassed for a while.
In fact, the production of pearl milk tea is not as complicated as imagined. At least in Zhao Xun's world, this thing is simply a standard for everyone. Even if one wants to make a pearl milk tea at home, it is extremely easy.
Already.
"Well, come and try this tiramisu cake and see how it tastes."
Zhao Xun introduced it seriously.
"good."
Faced with Zhao Xun's feeding, Luo Lun also refused to refuse.
He gently took a bite on the tiramisu cake, and for a moment he felt filled with happiness.
The texture of this cake couldn't be said to be nearly the same as the cake he had eaten in the Ellen Lore continent, it could only be said to be completely the same.
Such a soft, silky and mellow taste is simply amazing.
For a moment, Lauren was so moved that she almost shed tears.
"This cake is too delicious."
Seeing that Luo Lun gave a positive evaluation, Zhao Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that Laurent wouldn't like it!
As long as Laurent gives a positive answer, he can rest assured.
"By the way, why did you come to me this time?"
I also drank milk tea and ate tiramisu cake.
Zhao Xun thought at this moment that it was time to ask Luo Lun about the purpose of his visit this time.
Lauren swallowed the tiramisu cake in his mouth, took another sip of milk tea, and then nodded with satisfaction and said: "To be honest, my black dragon Dark Wings discovered the orcs and giants wandering hesitantly near Zhongnan Mountain.
magic."
Good guy.
Zhao Xun was really surprised when he heard this.
Orcs and trolls?
This news is really unexpected.
You must know that orcs and trolls can be regarded as neutral and violent tribes.
Zhao Xun always thought that they would not come to Zhongnan Mountain.
But who knew that even the trolls and orcs were coming towards Zhongnan Mountain.
Is Zhongnan Mountain too attractive, or is Haoran Academy too attractive?
Is it the mountain leader who is too attractive, or is it the Zhao Xun who is too attractive?
Maybe it's a combination of both.
Zhao Xun couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
"How many of them are here?"
Zhao Xun first needs to know the number of orcs and trolls who have come near Zhongnan Mountain.
Quantity represents a lot of things, and only after figuring out the quantity can he deduce the true purpose of these guys.
If there are only a small number of people, it means that the orcs and trolls may just be testing.
If there are a large number of people, the possibility of them invading cannot be ruled out.
You must know that this is a barbaric tribe that belongs to the orc tribe. Their bones and blood are filled with boiling orc blood, so they all like to invade.
The reason why they did not have much territory in the continent of Ellen Lore was firstly because of the joint resistance of other tribes, and secondly because of the invasion of the Corruptors.
What is extremely strange is that it seems that the Corruptors don't like orcs and trolls very much, and have no intention of taking them for their own use.
Generally speaking, aren't the orcs considered evil?
"There should be hundreds of people. But what Darkwing saw might not be all of them."
Luo Lun's words made Zhao Xun fall into deep thought.
Tsk tsk tsk.
If everything Lauren said is true, then the Orcs and Trolls might not just be here to test him this time.
Of course, we cannot conclude from this that they have invaded.
You know, the brain circuits of orcs and trolls are different from those of ordinary people.
They must have their reasons for making this choice.
What Zhao Xun has to do now is to figure out the purpose of the orcs and trolls.
Of course it is not easy to do this, but Zhao Xun must do it.
Because responsibility always has to be resisted.
"Now we're afraid we have something to do."
Zhao Xun raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a half-smile, "I think it's best for us to fly on a dragon and see for ourselves what's going on."
Zhao Xun had flown on a dragon with Luo Lun more than once before. The memory was still very good.
After hearing this, Luo Lun nodded and said, "Okay, in that case, let's fly on a dragon and see for ourselves what happened."
Zhao Xun's temperament is quite cheerful and he does whatever he says.
He shouted "Teaching without distinction", and the white dragon Pipixia immediately rushed out of the chessboard space.
Bai Jiaolong has a spirit and can feel Zhao Xun's mood.
It kept rubbing Zhao Xun's head to express intimacy.
Zhao Xun responded by patting Bai Jiaolong's head.
He and Bai Jiaolong have long been accustomed to this way of communicating with each other, and are already very familiar with each other.
But fortunately he summoned the white dragon outside the bamboo building, otherwise the entire bamboo building would not have been exploded with Pipi Xia's current size.
All I can say is that the food in the academy is so good, and the dishes Zhao Xun cooked for Pippi Shrimp and White Dragon are so delicious.
Otherwise, Pipi Shrimp and White Dragon would not have grown so fast.
Zhao Xun observed carefully and found that Pippi Shrimp Baijiaolong had at least doubled in weight compared to when he first met.
"let's go."
Zhao Xun said this to Luo Lun on the side.
Loren nodded and began to summon the great black dragon Dark Wings.
It's just that the way he summons the big black dragon is very different from Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun used a command, while Luo Lun whistled directly.
The sound of this whistle obviously has a miraculous effect on the great black dragon Darkwing.
After Luo Lun blew his whistle, he saw a big black dragon flying directly from the sky.
Good guy.
For a moment, Zhao Xun was stunned.
The big black dragon looks so handsome.
In fact, Zhao Xun has never been very interested in dragons in Western fantasy worlds.
He always thought there was nothing special about this thing except that it could breathe fire.
But this idea changed significantly after Zhao Xun saw the big black dragon Dark Wings.
The big black dragon Darkwing is so handsome.
He looks handsome from the inside out, he is so handsome.
After a while, the big black dragon Darkwing stopped in the open space in front of the two of them.
It folds its wings like a chicken and waits for its owner to ride on its back.
I have to say, this scene is indeed very heartwarming.
Hey, the dragon clan is indeed the dragon clan, and the relationship between you and the dragon is incomparable to other people.
Without hesitation, Loren jumped onto the neck of the big black dragon Darkwing, grabbed the two scales of the big black dragon, and smiled faintly.
"Come on, let's go."
"good."
Zhao Xun nodded, and he jumped onto the back of Pipi Xia without hesitation.
One of them is riding a big black dragon, and the other is riding a white dragon.
Although there are different types of dragons, they can all be called dragons.
So they are legitimate dragon knights.
"let's go!"
"Pippi Shrimp, let's go!"
The two of them chanted slogans respectively, and the big black dragon and the white dragon rose up one after another and flew straight into the sky.
"Tsk tsk tsk"
It feels really good to fly high in the sky.
Letting the clouds drift past you, and occasionally one or two birds, this feeling is really great.
Pipi Shrimp and Bai Jiaolong were also very excited.
Although theoretically it can fly freely in the chessboard space, the feeling is different.
Because there is only one dragon in the chessboard space, and there is no big black dragon. And there is no Zhao Xun to accompany him.
Pipi Xiabai Jiaolong always feels lonely.
But the world outside is completely different.
The feeling of being accompanied by relatives and friends will always fill Bai Jiaolong with happiness.
It snorts from time to time to express its mood at the moment.
The big black dragon Darkwing not far away will also respond quickly.
The relationship between the two dragons is getting better and better.
Zhao Xun felt extremely happy when he saw this scene.
In his opinion this is the best situation.
Zhao Xun has always wanted to find a companion for the white dragon Pipixia because he felt that the white dragon Pipixia would be a little too lonely for himself.
But it is not easy to find another dragon.
Moreover, the White Dragon Pipi Shrimp has now broken away from the category of monster beasts and has become a spiritual beast through the enlightenment of the mountain chief.
If an ordinary monster approaches it, not only will it not be approached by the white dragon, but it is also likely to be driven away by the white dragon.
This is no joke.
Zhao Xun doesn't want Pipi Shrimp to suddenly fight with other dragons.
Therefore, the process of introducing Bai Jiaolong to other friends can only be put on hold for the time being.
Unexpectedly, by chance, Bai Jiaolong fell in love with Big Black Dragon. The relationship between the two heated up rapidly, and they have been very harmonious from the beginning to now.
This made Zhao Xun so happy.
With the big black dragon by his side, the white dragon will never feel lonely again.
"The sky is high enough for a dragon to fly, and the sea is wide enough for a fish to leap."
Zhao Xun dropped his book bag very excitedly.
Although Laurent couldn't quite understand what he heard, he seemed to think it made sense.
"What a poem, what a poem."
Luo Lun has long been accustomed to a poem or two suddenly popping out of Zhao Xun's mouth.
The feeling of this poem is very different from the poems in their world. It seems that the rhyme and rhyme are well done and it can be said to be seamless.
"Haha, that's ridiculous."
Zhao Xun still behaved very modestly, and he still had to express the modesty he should have in front of foreigners. If he was too crazy, it would not be conducive to maintaining the image of a scholar in the Zhou Dynasty.
After all, Zhao Xun is also a Wenquxing who descended to earth.
This can also be regarded as the representative and facade of Dazhou scholars.
If Zhao Xun couldn't be more humble, I'm afraid Luo Lun would think that all the scholars in the Zhou Dynasty were like this, and then Zhao Xun wouldn't be able to handle this big pot.
He won’t take the blame!
With Luo Lun leading the way, all Zhao Xun had to do was follow behind on the back of Pippi Shrimp White Dragon.
In comparison, this is still a relatively easy thing.
Flying straight out from the academy gate, flying closer and closer to the outskirts of Zhongnan Mountain.
The location of the academy was very carefully chosen, and it was built in the valley of Zhongnan Mountain.
The orcs and trolls seen now should be located on the outskirts of Zhongnan Mountain.
Only when they flew to the outskirts of Zhongnan Mountain could they finally determine the number of trolls and orcs.
You can tell at a glance whether you are an enemy or a friend.
Zhao Xun has the ability to communicate with the major tribes in the continent of Ellen Lore. Therefore, the language of orcs and trolls is not a barrier.
Zhao Xun just hopes that all this can be ended quickly.
Putting it off is not a wise choice because it means longer nights and more dreams.
Whether the orcs and trolls were enemies or friends, he had to figure it out immediately.
…
…
The troll leader Hanik looked at this mountain forest and felt an extremely generous feeling in his heart.
This mountain forest is really very fertile. It looks lush and green from a distance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
"It would be great if we could settle here."
Ruota, the half-orc chief on the side, nodded and said, "Yes, this Zhongnan Mountain can be regarded as the spiritual mountain and wonderful river in this world."
"But will we be accepted?"
As the orcs from the same ancestry, the orcs and trolls can be said to be hugging each other for warmth at this moment.
They are discriminated against by other tribes, but they will stick together and lick each other's wounds.
"Tsk tsk... It's really hard to say this. It is said that many tribes from the Ellen Lore continent have now arrived at Zhongnan Mountain."
"But their situation is different from ours. They are easier to accept. But we will naturally be regarded as a group of savage beasts. No matter how good we perform, it will be useless."
When he said this, the troll leader Hanik sighed and said: "Yes, this is a misunderstanding. They misunderstood us too much. They thought we were fierce entirely because of our rough appearance. But in fact
Our hearts are very warm and gentle."
"It's useless to say this now. Only when we meet the people of the academy in person and communicate with them can we determine where we will go in the future. Before this, no one knows whether we can stay in Zhongnan Mountain."
“…”
"Can't you use force?"
"You want to take action? It's better not to do it, right? This is not a wise move."
Ruota, the orc chief, tried to dissuade him: "If you have anything to say, you can talk it over. If it really doesn't work, it's not too late to take action. If we take action as soon as we come up, we won't even have any room for mediation in the future."
Troll leader Hanik fell silent.
Tolerance is not his character, but now he has no good solution except to endure.
Just like Ruota, the half-orc chief, said, using force at this time is likely to directly lead to strong resentment from the academy.
Once the Academy lists them as imaginary enemies, everything will be over.
It is impossible for the academy's enemies to stay in Zhongnan Mountain, and they know this very well.
Doing it will not serve any purpose other than adding some gunpowder smell.
"But if we bring so many people there, will it cause panic in the academy and make them think we are hostile?"
"this…"
Ruota's brows knitted together.
He thought about it carefully and realized that this might indeed be the case.
The number of people they brought was indeed a bit too high.
But if we don’t bring so many people, exploring Zhongnan Mountain will be very slow.
This is not an ordinary hill, but a big mountain.
It is impossible to explore such a large mountain in a short time without a large number of personnel investment.
This is indeed a paradox.
Ruota felt that it was very difficult for him.
As the leader of the clan, he must lead the way forward for the whole clan, but if he makes a wrong move, the whole clan may be destroyed.
The clansmen will not care about this, they will only think that this is the responsibility of the clan leader.
If the clan leader cannot lead the clan to prosperity, the consequences will be very serious.
This will cause outrage.
So Ruota has to shoulder the responsibility no matter how difficult it is.
He had to make a choice, and the only person with whom he could discuss it was Hanik, the leader of the trolls.
Hanik also fell silent.
Originally he was relatively decisive, but after listening to Ruota's analysis of the pros and cons, he couldn't help but become a little hesitant.
No one can completely ignore all this.
After all, this is not their business alone, it concerns the future and lives of the whole family.
In this situation, every decision must be made with caution.
"Perhaps we can let some tribesmen stay on the outside first, and we can take a few of our confidants to visit the academy gate. Is that okay?"
"This may be a compromise choice."
The two finally reached a consensus, and the next thing to do was to get as close to the academy as possible.
But it's not an easy task.
The place where the academy was built seems to be very hidden. The key is that Ruota and Hanik have never seen the specific location of the academy, so they can only cross the river by feeling the stones.
…
…
"Yes, they are right over there!"
Laurent was riding on the big black dragon, looking at the densely packed orcs and trolls below with a very excited expression.
Zhao Xun also quickly looked in that direction.
Sure enough, he saw a lot of people.
The bodies of these people are much stronger, a full circle larger than ordinary people.
Although Zhao Xun hasn't seen their faces clearly yet, he can basically tell that these are orcs and trolls.
"Well let's fly down and take a look."
In any case, the best option at this time is face-to-face communication.
It is not wise to bring the situation to a stalemate.
Communication is the best way to solve problems.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Soon they landed.
This time they could clearly see the orcs and trolls in front of them.
These guys look really fierce...
Zhao Xun only took one look and made a similar comment in his heart.
"You are people from the continent of Ellen Lore, right?"
"good."
Half-orc chief Ruota nodded and said, "How come you know our clan language?"
The language of the orcs is similar to the language of the trolls, and they can understand each other. However, they are not connected with the languages of other tribes, and they need a translator to communicate.
Even though different tribes in the same world are like this, the people in the academy are people from a completely different world.
How did this guy manage to communicate with him smoothly without any hindrance?
Ruota felt incredible just thinking about it.
"Well, don't worry about these details."
Zhao Xun spread his hands in embarrassment and said, "I have the special ability to communicate with various tribes. This ability is only possessed by me and is not universal."
Zhao Xun explained very seriously.
He was afraid that the other party would misunderstand and think that everyone had this ability.
"Oh okay."
Hearing this Ruota nodded.
"If that's the case, I'll understand. But..."
Ruota frowned and said, "Why are you with a member of the Dragon Clan?"
Ruota immediately noticed a dragon tribesman standing next to Zhao Xun.
Moreover, this Dragon Clan person also exudes an extremely strong Dragon Clan aura.
Obviously, this person is the leader of the Dragon Clan.
Neither Ruota nor Hanik knew Lauren, but they could tell Lauren's identity from his breath.
There is no doubt that Luo Lun is the leader of the Dragon Clan.
"They also came from the Ellen Lore continent, and they came much earlier than you."
Zhao Xun felt the hostility from Ruota, but he had to protect Luo Lun as much as possible.
"Well, I understand."
Ruota's mood did not change in any way because of these words, it was still the same as before.
"So what is the purpose of your coming to Zhongnan Mountain?"
Closer to home, Zhao Xun always wants to ask this question.
"To survive."
Ruota replied without thinking.
This is completely based on instinct.
"Do you think only this area of Zhongnan Mountain can keep you alive? No other areas can?"
Zhao Xun was speechless for a moment.
"Of course. Otherwise, why would other tribes flock here?"
Hanik interjected: "It must be because the living environment here is better, so they rush here."
Zhao Xun found that he could not refute this sentence.
Because the conditions in Zhongnan Mountain are indeed better than other places.
Coupled with the existence of the magic shield, the safety here is also guaranteed.
It’s understandable that trolls and orcs would follow.
They are also human beings, although they are a little fiercer and a little uglier.
But survival is still their instinct.
…
…
The negotiation process is slow and difficult. The key is that the demands of the orcs and trolls are difficult to accept.
Not only did they request to settle in the academy, but they also requested that the academy provide them with a large amount of supplies.
This involves various aspects such as eating and drinking.
Zhao Xun felt that he had not found an ally but a father.
"So this reason is unacceptable in any case. We have our own bottom line, and the bottom line cannot be breached."
Zhao Xun reiterated the bottom line during the exchange with his third senior brother Long Qingquan.
"Well, I also think their request is too much. We cannot agree to it, and we must not tolerate their bad habits."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan clenched his fists and said resolutely.
In fact, no matter what choice the junior brother makes, he will stand by his side without hesitation.
But if the younger brother agrees with him completely, that would be the best result.
"Um…"
After receiving the support of his third senior brother Long Qingquan, Zhao Xun felt more confident.
Regarding forming alliances with foreign races, the senior and second senior sisters were not too involved, so it was basically Zhao Xun and third senior brother Long Qingquan who discussed it.
"Okay, then I'll go and reiterate our bottom line to him."
Zhao Xun nodded and said: "The next step is to see if they are willing to give in and retreat. I hope they can let go, so that both sides can still talk if they take a step back."
Zhao Xun also didn’t want the conversation to collapse.
If the Orcs and Trolls can be won over into the Academy Alliance, it will weaken the Corruptor's strength in disguise.
Otherwise, if the Corruptors are allowed to absorb orcs and trolls, the entire alliance will be greatly affected.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
…
…
"It is impossible to settle in the academy, and it is impossible for us to accept it."
Zhao Xun was stunned and said: "But we can divide an area in Zhongnan Mountain and give it to your tribe to stay temporarily. This area is not far from the academy. So no matter what happens, there will be someone to take care of it."
Zhao Xun's words were relaxed and relaxed, just like his attitude, which was neither humble nor overbearing.
He wanted to make it clear to the orcs and trolls that he would never accept them settling in the academy.
“…”
Orc chief Ruota's eyebrows knitted together.
He felt very sad.
The other party's attitude was very tough and there was absolutely no room for negotiation.
Ruota was very disappointed when he felt that he didn't even have a chance to try.
"How far is this area from the academy?"
"It's just a mountain bag."
Seeing that the other party's attitude was clearly showing signs of softening, Zhao Xun planned to strike while the iron was hot.
"So don't have any worries. Besides, the situation of other tribes is exactly the same as yours."
Of course, Zhao Xun did not mention the Dragon Clan, because the Dragon Clan is now the only tribe temporarily living in the academy.
If the half-orc chief Ruota and the troll leader Hanik knew about this, the consequences would be disastrous.
They will definitely question Zhao Xun why the Dragon Clan can be an exception.
The right way is to worry not about scarcity but about inequality.
If a bowl of water is flat, nothing will happen. But if something special is done, some people will definitely be dissatisfied.
I definitely can't stand the trouble at this time.
If there are any more rifts within the alliance, it can be said that the Academy Alliance is in danger.
So Zhao Xun must downplay this matter.
As long as the half-orc chief Ruota and the troll leader Hanik didn't take the initiative to mention it, Zhao Xun would pretend he didn't hear it.
"Okay, we agreed."
After some eye contact with Hanik, the leader of the troll tribe, Ruota gave Zhao Xun a positive answer.
Hmm...that's great.
After getting this answer, Zhao Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been worried that Ruota would refuse.
If Ruota really refuses, he will definitely have to readjust the conditions.
There was no way he could just watch the orcs and trolls leave Zhongnan Mountain and join the camp of the enemy, the Corruptor.
As long as there is even the slightest chance left, he will not give up.
He will fight to the end and strive for everything possible.
As long as the conditions offered by the other party are not so excessive, Zhao Xun feels that everything can be discussed.
"Okay, then I will take you to your station."
Zhao Xun still felt very pleased.
This can be regarded as relieving a piece of his heartache.
…
…
After returning to the academy with Luo Lun, Zhao Xun went to find his third senior brother Long Qingquan again.
Long Qingquan was practicing his sword next to the bamboo forest at the moment. Zhao Xun didn't dare to disturb him and just watched obediently.
I have to say that Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan's Flower Burial Sword Technique is quite sharp, and it is also very chic and highly enjoyable to watch.
Even someone like Zhao Xun who couldn't use a sword was amazed after seeing his third senior brother Long Qingquan dancing with a sword.
It wasn't until Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan finished his whole set of swordsmanship that Zhao Xun clapped his hands and stepped forward and said, "Wonderful, wonderful! Third Senior Brother's Flower Burial Sword Technique is the pinnacle of perfection, it's superb."
"Hey, junior brother, why are you here?"
"Third Senior Brother, I just went to talk to the orcs and troll leaders. The process went smoothly and the results were ideal. In the end, they agreed to settle in the Zhongnan Mountain area we designated."
"Tsk, tsk, that's great. Junior brother, you really have a pair of sharp teeth. It's not easy, it's really not easy."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan put away his sword, first expressed his congratulations to Zhao Xun, and then changed the topic: "But I still want to remind you, it is better to be careful. As the saying goes, you know the person, but you don't know the heart. What's more,
These are alien races. Junior brother, don’t you often say that if you are not from my race, your heart must be different. I think this makes sense.”
"Well, I will pay more attention to them during this period, so don't worry, Third Senior Brother."
Zhao Xun thought that it couldn't be easier for him to pay attention to orcs and trolls.
All you need to do is summon the Pipi Shrimp White Dragon, then Zhao Xun jumps on the Pipi Shrimp's back, and let the Pipi Shrimp go on patrol and everything will be fine.
And he believed that the orcs and trolls would not cause trouble.
They have been wandering around for so long and finally found a habitat, so they will naturally stay here well.
"Well, junior brother, we can breathe a sigh of relief now that this matter has been settled. By the way, it's time to make the fried noodles you mentioned."
Well…
Third Senior Brother, Zhao Xun couldn't keep up with the topic.
"Fried noodles..."
Zhao Xundao's third senior brother Long Qingquan is really a top foodie.
This good guy...
"The method of making fried noodles is actually to stir-fry the prepared dough instead of cold salad. The two methods are different, and the texture is very different. To be honest, I haven't made it in a long time. If the technique is unfamiliar,
I’m afraid the taste will be a little unsatisfactory.”
Zhao Xun was worried that the expectations of the third senior brother Long Qingquan were too high, and he would be very disappointed if the expectations were not met in the end. So he explained it to the third senior brother Long Qingquan from the beginning, so that he had fulfilled his responsibility.
"Tsk, tsk, it doesn't matter. Just go ahead and do it, little junior brother. I can trust your cooking skills. I like to eat whatever you cook."
"Ha ha…"
Third Brother’s answer can be said to be of extremely high emotional intelligence. Who wouldn’t like to hear it?
Although Zhao Xun knew that there were many compliments in this, he still felt very satisfied.
"Okay, third senior brother, you wait for me to steam the dough first, and then fry it."
The whole process still takes a long time, but Zhao Xun thinks it is worth it.
Because the fried noodles are really delicious.
…
…
After a lot of hard work, Zhao Xun finally made the fried noodles.
When he brought the fried dough to the third senior brother Long Qingquan, the third senior brother was so greedy that his mouth watered.
"Wow, junior brother, this fried noodle skin just smells so good, it must taste amazing too."
"Well, I don't dare to say that. You can only judge whether it tastes good or not after you taste it."
"Well, I'll give it a try."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan picked up the chopsticks and took a knife, put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.
Of course, when eating delicious food, you should not wolf it down, but savor it carefully and slowly.
Only in this way can you appreciate the essence of delicious food.
As a top gourmet, Long Qingquan knows this well.
He did every detail and every movement with great care, which even made Zhao Xun feel very beautiful.
This operation of the third senior brother is really amazing.
"How's it going? Does it taste okay?"
Zhao Xun felt very uneasy deep in his heart.
After all, it had been a long time since he had made fried noodles. This time he returned to his old profession, and he really didn’t know how the fried noodles would taste.
If he cannot satisfy the third senior brother, it means that his skills have deteriorated, and Zhao Xun will have to start practicing again.
Sometimes practice is still an essential part.
Whenever you feel unfamiliar, you have to work harder to get your skills back.
"This is a delicacy from the immortal world, how can it be found in the human world?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan had an envious look on his face.
"Really?"
This evaluation was really too high, and Zhao Xun even doubted whether it was really so delicious.
"Of course it's true. Junior brother, come and try it too."
After saying that, the third senior brother Long Qingquan picked up a stick of fried noodles and brought it to Zhao Xun's mouth.
"Well…"
Zhao Xun was a little embarrassed for a moment. He thought it was strange that the third senior brother offered him food, but after thinking about it, the situation would be even more embarrassing if he refused.
So he could only eat it.
The moment Zhao Xun ate the fried noodles, he felt filled with happiness.
Isn’t this smell too fragrant?
It seems that sentence is correct.
No matter what kind of food it is, even if it is delicacies from the mountains and seas, it will feel tasteless if you eat it every day.
You have to change the pattern at least every few days.
Zhao Xun was good at making snacks before, so he must not forget this skill.
Otherwise, you will definitely regret it when you want to eat various snacks and delicacies in the future.
…
…
"It's really strange. The academy's great formation has started to weaken. I don't know what went wrong."
The third senior brother looked at the formation at the bottom of the ink-washing pool, his eyes full of doubts.
"Could it be that it's in disrepair?"
Zhao Xun regretted these words as soon as he said them.
Although the array also requires maintenance, it is obviously different from a machine.
If the machine is not used for a long time, it will definitely break down.
However, if the array is not used for a long time, it may not break down.
Moreover, this large formation in the academy has not been idle for a while.
Therefore, it is more likely that this formation has been subject to some interference, or it has been artificially destroyed.
Zhao Xun thinks the latter is more likely.
After all, he had seen the scene after the great formation in Chang'an City was destroyed, and it was very similar to the scene he saw today.
But who did it?
Who can do something in a heavily guarded academy without being discovered?
Who can do it under the eyes of the mountain chief without being discovered?
If there really is such a person, what kind of magical powers does he have to possess? Isn’t he probably a top-level powerhouse at the Grand Master level?
The High Priest of the Demon Sect had been near Zhongnan Mountain before, and left after some testing.
The remaining great masters are Zheng Jie, Yuan Tiangang or the great Vajra Master of the Western Regions, Master Huiyan.
Is it possible that Wei Wuji came to Chang'an again?
The situation suddenly became complicated and confusing.
Zhao Xun only felt a headache and didn't know what to do for a while.
"Junior brother, do you think this is someone deliberately testing to see our bottom line and our reaction before making any calculations?"
"Probably."
Zhao Xun felt that his third senior brother Long Qingquan had the same idea as him.
Judging from the current situation, there must be someone secretly acting evil.
This person might be very strong, otherwise he wouldn't dare to challenge the academy.
"So should we set up a trap to lure him out?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan has a restless temper, and openly provoking him is not a good choice.
There is no doubt that this person is provoking the bottom line of the third senior brother.
Zhao Xun felt that doing so was also a good choice.
At least it is equivalent to sending a clear signal to the other party that the academy is not easy to mess with and it is best to stay away.
Otherwise, if a fight really breaks out, the academy will beat him to death.
"This guy's whereabouts are ghostly. He has been invisible for so long. I'm afraid it won't be easy to get him to show his fox tail."
The Third Brother's idea is certainly a good one, but the problem is that the other party is not a fool. If the trap is too obvious, the other party will definitely not get into it.
"This is simple. This person's purpose must be to invade the academy, otherwise he would not have the idea of formation eyes and large formations."
In an instant, Zhao Xun understood what the third senior brother was going to do.
"Third Senior Brother, are you trying to close the formation for a while to attract the mastermind to appear?"
"Of course."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan nodded.
"How can he take the bait if you don't give him something sweet?"
"Yeah, but the risk is not small..."
By forcibly opening the academy's ban, not only this guy lurking in the darkness may invade, but others may also invade.
Just like some monsters and mandrills wandering around Zhongnan Mountain. Just like some lonely ghosts.
These are all possible threats to the academy.
Even those tribes currently living in the continent of Ellen Lore have actually always wanted to settle in the academy, but they have been unable to do so due to the academy's restrictions.
But after the ban on the academy disappears, they may tentatively go to the academy.
If there is no clear signal from the academy...
Of course, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan also knew these risks.
He nodded and said: "Yes, the risk of doing this is not small, but we have no choice. If we don't do this, that guy will take advantage of it and sit on our heads to shit."
"Well, so in addition to keeping an eye on this guy who is wreaking havoc in the dark, we also have to be wary of the tribes of Ellen Lore who are ready to make a move."
Zhao Xun first pointed out the risks and saw if his third senior brother Long Qingquan had any particularly good ideas.
"Those guys from the Ellen Lore tribe are actually easy to handle. They won't think much of us. Besides, they don't know whether the ban will be closed temporarily or for a long time. They won't take risks without being sure.
Of course, if you are really worried, little junior brother, you can ask Lao Liu to secretly place another ban on the inside. In this way, even if they do come in, they will return in vain and be in trouble."
"Well…"
Zhao Xun actually felt that this was somewhat superfluous.
Obviously one layer of restrictions has been removed, but another layer of restrictions has been added to the inside.
"Third Senior Brother, wouldn't this be a bit pretentious?"
"What do you mean by doing?"
"The meaning of doing is to be a little pretentious..."
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly and said, "I don't think we need to impose another layer of restrictions."
"Well, I'll just listen to you and stop making excuses. In fact, that's what I thought at the beginning. Aren't I afraid that you will be worried, little junior brother?"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan chuckled and said, "Sometimes I really feel that junior brother you are very similar to the mountain leader, but sometimes the difference between you and the mountain leader is quite obvious, which is really unpredictable."
Well…
Zhao Xun just didn't know what to say.
Is Third Senior Brother praising him or hurting him?
High, this really means high.
Zhao Xun was completely unable to hear what his third senior brother Long Qingquan was saying.
"Actually, as long as the mountain chief is here, the academy will not panic. No one dares to invade the academy when the mountain chief is completely healthy. This kind of behavior is no different from seeking death."
"This is true. The mountain leader has fully recovered after recuperating for such a long time. The complete mountain leader is an unreachable mountain for everyone."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan's eyes were full of admiration when he mentioned the mountain chief.
"Tsk tsk...There's nothing wrong with you, Third Senior Brother. As long as we can ensure that the mountain leader is always in a completely healthy state, there won't be any problems."
Shan Chang is really a backer, and now countless people are counting on Shan Chang.
So Chief Shan must not have any problems.
Zhao Xun prayed secretly in his heart.
Mr. Shanzhang, although you are very strong, you must not sway or get caught.
It is impossible for you to lose in a one-on-one duel, but if it is one-to-many, it is very likely that you were tricked by the dark wizard and the demon sect's high priest last time.
…
…
Wei Wuji was exploring. He wandered between Chang'an City and Zhongnan Mountain, hoping to find some clues.
It is not an easy thing to do.
Because traces are easily covered up, especially in a place like Chang'an.
But Wei Wuji still tried hard to search.
The reason is simple. If he doesn't do this, he is likely to be set up to capture him.
Being caught alone in a place like Chang'an City is a terrible thing.
Even if you are a great master, you may not be able to escape unscathed.
Because there will be a great master who is stronger than you.
Facing such a top opponent, even the strongest person will face great pressure.
It is not easy to save your life. If you want to come and go freely as if you are in an uninhabited land, it will really test your hard power, and of course luck.
If your luck is slightly worse and your position is slightly worse, you will face a life-or-death crisis.
"I must act quickly before the mountain commander takes action."
After Wei Wuji wandered around the outskirts of Chang'an City, he decided to go to Zhongnan Mountain to take a look.
It would be unreliable if he didn't see it for himself.
And he felt that the restrictions on Zhongnan Mountain had weakened a lot recently, so this might be a good opportunity for him.
What happened?
Could it be that he is the head of the mountain...
Could it be that there is something wrong with Shan Chang's health?
Wei Wuji knew that the rise and fall of the academy was closely related to the health of the mountain chief.
If there is a problem with Shan Chang's health, then the ban will definitely be affected, right?
Wei Wuji vaguely had some expectations again.
It's not that he's itching to provoke.
The last time the mountain chief beat him so badly, Wei Wuji still remembered to eat and beat him.
He just wanted to see how the mountain leader was doing now.
If the mountain chief's condition is not enough to support him in a big battle, I'm afraid Wei Wuji can sneak into Chang'an City and the palace to assassinate Emperor Xianlong with more confidence.
Although there are rumors that the relationship between Emperor Xianlong and the mountain chief has completely broken down because of Zhao Xun, no one knows what the real situation is.
Wei Wuji was worried that this was news deliberately released by Emperor Xianlong, with the purpose of confusing the enemy.
Once Emperor Xianlong's enemies let their guard down, they would face an extremely severe situation.
At that time, I am afraid that I will be hunted by a dragnet, and whether I can escape from Ascension really depends on my luck.
Of course Wei Wuji didn't want to gamble.
What he wants is to take the head of the Dog Emperor among thousands of guards and then successfully retreat.
So he must ensure that the information he gets is true.
…
…
"Junior brother, you have such a strong aura of a practitioner."
Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou smelled something and immediately reminded Zhao Xun.
They are now hiding in a small forest, trying to figure out who the hidden boss approaching the academy is.
This person's cultivation level is extremely powerful. They can probably guess the identity of the other person, but to really know it, they have to see it with their own eyes.
"Well, let's try not to make any noise, so as not to alert others."
Zhao Xun lowered his voice and said.
In his opinion, this person should be the strong practitioner who is acting evil in the dark.
This person's aura is extremely powerful and can be felt from a distance.
You don't need Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou to talk to Zhao Xun to tell that this person's cultivation level is at least first level.
As for whether he is in the realm of a great master, it's hard to say.
You have to look at it and check it out before you can make a final decision.
"I feel that this breath is very familiar, as if I have encountered it before."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan frowned and said.
"Uh, he can't really be the high priest of the Demon Sect, right?"
The person most familiar to everyone in the academy is the High Priest of the Demon Sect.
The High Priest of the Demon Sect openly invaded Zhao Xun's dreamland. Under Zhao Xun's assembly, the academy disciples gathered together and waited for the High Priest of the Demon Sect to arrive.
In the end, the high priest of the Demon Sect blatantly resorted to tricking the golden cicada to escape from its shell, which made Zhao Xun and others hate it.
"If it is the High Priest of the Demon Sect, he is probably not alone. Have you forgotten that he is now in a group with the dark wizards? They are all coming in and out together now, and it is impossible for them to act alone."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan immediately overturned Zhao Xun's hypothesis, and overturned it so thoroughly that even the foundation of the wall was demolished.
"If it's not the High Priest of the Demon Sect, who else could it be? Is it really Zheng Jie? Or Master Huiyan from the Western Regions?"
These two people are the guys most likely to invade the academy besides the High Priest of the Demon Sect.
For them, the academy is more or less threatening and enmity.
They definitely don't want to see how good the academy is.
Now that the academy has been banned from dispersing, they have taken the opportunity to add insult to injury and take advantage. It makes sense both emotionally and rationally, and is in line with their characters.
"Of course we don't rule out the possibility of the East Vietnamese Sword Master."
Wei Wuji and Zhao Xun were quite impressed. He was known as the sage of swordsmanship, the best swordsman, and the second best in the world.
However, although this guy set up so many characters and flags, he failed to stick to them in the end.
In the Battle of Chang'an a year ago, Wei Wuji was defeated at the hands of the mountain commander.
Lose completely, lose completely and completely.
Wei Wuji's hatred for the academy should be deep in his bones, right?
It is completely reasonable for Wei Wuji to hate the academy so much and to be eager to find an opportunity to regain his place.
So this time Wei Wuji came to Chang'an City and what was the purpose of coming to Zhongnan Mountain?
Isn't it just to make you feel sick about the academy?
Zhao Xun knew that there was a bloody feud between Wei Wuji and Emperor Xianlong.
So Wei Wuji probably wanted to take Emperor Xianlong’s life, right?
He should be on his way to Zhongnan Mountain to come to the academy, right?
If this is really such a set of ideas, it would make perfect sense.
"Whether it is Wei Wuji, the high priest of the Demon Sect, or the Buddhist monk from the Western Regions, or the eunuch Zheng Jie. When these guys come to the academy's territory, they have to be guarded by me. If they want to act rogue in front of the academy, they are not qualified.
"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan raised his head proudly and said with great confidence.
"Shh, keep your voice down. I hear footsteps!"
Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou said in a deep voice.
Everyone became alert.
They can feel someone approaching.
Everyone held their breath, ready to record all the information about this person.
"Here he comes, he really came this time."
The aura and footsteps became more and more obvious, as if this person would appear in front of them the next moment.
…
…
The result was a situation that shocked everyone!
The man who appeared before them was a Faceless Man!
hiss…
In an instant, everyone gasped.
This situation is exactly the same as the previous situation when the high priest of the Demon Sect invaded Zhao Xun’s dreamland!
At that time, in order to avoid exposing his identity, the high priest of the Demon Sect used the faceless man to confuse everyone in the academy.
At that time, Zhao Xun and others guessed for a long time that it was the high priest of the Demon Sect who was causing trouble behind the scenes.
Now that the exact same situation occurs, they will naturally not hesitate at all. This person is probably the high priest of the Demon Sect.
only…
Why did the High Priest of the Demon Sect suddenly come to the academy?
Last time he was just wandering around the outskirts of Zhongnan Mountain, but this time he went straight to the academy.
And isn’t the High Priest of the Demon Sect with the dark wizards? Why did he slip away this time?
For the High Priest of the Demon Sect, isn’t joining a group the best option?
The faceless man was very agile and passed by in a flash.
Before Zhao Xun and others had time to react, this guy disappeared before their eyes.
This result is barely acceptable to everyone in the academy.
Although they didn't see clearly who the faceless man was, they roughly guessed that he was the high priest of the Demon Sect.
Now it depends on how this guy moves, whether he will continue to go deeper into the academy or turn around and turn back.
…
…
What a risk, what a risk!
Wei Wuji breathed a sigh of relief after escaping from the encirclement of everyone in the academy.
He never thought that everyone in the academy would set up a trap waiting for him to jump into.
"It's terrible, it's really terrible."
The Academy Chief should be there too, right?
If he had run a little later, he might not have been able to escape.
Did the academy deliberately lay out the plan just to catch him?
Wei Wuji was not sure.
But one thing is certain, the ban on the academy was definitely closed intentionally.
It was precisely because Wei Wuji felt that the academy was closed that he wanted to try his luck.
Facts have proved that this is definitely not a wise choice.
The mountain chief knew what was going on and figured out Wei Wuji's plans.
It can be said that Wei Wuji was involved in Shan Zhang's calculations from beginning to end.
Fortunately, he has Qinggong and can run fast, otherwise he would really have to confess.
"It seems that Zhongnan Mountain must not be visited again. It is really too dangerous."
To this day, Wei Wuji still feels lingering fear.
People from the Central Plains are very scheming.
It seems that Chang'an City is not as peaceful as it appears.
I'm afraid Emperor Xianlong's man has also set up a dragnet, ready to strangle Wei Wuji at any time, right?
Wei Wuji smiled coldly.
Of course he would not let Emperor Xianlong succeed as he wished.
In addition to his great swordsmanship, Wei Wuji was also a master of light kung fu.
This makes his movements very cunning and ghostly.
Even if he can't defeat Wei Wuji, he can still run away.
Where there is life, there is hope.
As long as you can run away, it's not a big problem.
Revenge must be taken, and Wei Wuji will take revenge no matter what.
It's just a matter of picking the right moment.
Timing is really important.
If the timing is wrong, not only will the Dog Emperor fail to be captured and killed, but he may also get involved.
Wei Wuji's ability to get to this point was all due to his own efforts.
He has no background, no sense of surprise, and no appreciation from the old man with a white beard.
So Wei Wuji could only rely on himself.
He will deliberately avoid all dangers and avoid all adverse factors, just to survive and then complete what he wants to do.
…
…
"Shan Zhang, this is the new red bean milk tea made by my disciple. Try it while it's hot. The milk tea tastes good when it's hot, but it loses the taste once it's cold."
Zhao Xun delivered the newly made red bean milk tea to his mentor, the mountain leader, with a smile on his face that made people feel like a spring breeze.
"My dear disciple, you are interested."
The mountain leader nodded with satisfaction, took the milk tea and took a sip.
The sweetness of red beans and the fragrance of milk tea mix together, giving people a very enjoyable feeling.
Of course Mr. Shan feels this way.
He only felt that his mouth was filled with the fragrance of milk tea.
"Not bad, really good. My dear disciple, your milk tea making skills are really getting better and better."
Faced with the mountain chief's praise, Zhao Xun scratched his head and said, "You are really complimenting me. I can't bear your praise."
"What's good means it tastes good. There's no point in praising it or not. Do you think this milk tea tastes good but you still say it tastes bad? Is there any such truth in the world?"
For a top gourmet like Shan Zhang, a cup of delicious milk tea is undoubtedly the key factor that can convince him. Zhao Xun never thought that he could get such a high evaluation from Shan Zhang, and for a while he just felt flattered.
"Well, Commander, if you like it, my disciple will make it for you in a different way in the future. Changing the taste of milk tea is very simple, as long as you make a slight adjustment, the overall taste will change accordingly."
Zhao Xun definitely has rich experience in making milk tea.
As long as he is given enough time and rich enough raw materials, he can prepare a variety of milk teas.
Since the mountain leader likes to drink milk tea, Zhao Xun can do what he likes and try to make more milk tea.
"Well, that's good. This is the best thing about my teacher. If I could taste milk tea with different flavors, I would be really happy."
Now the mountain chief feels more and more that accepting Zhao Xun as his disciple was the right thing to do.
If you regard it as a business, you will definitely make a profit without losing any money.
"Shan Chief, my disciple is here to give you a pat on your back and a shoulder rub."
Zhao Xun came behind the mountain leader and started to rub his shoulders and back with great discernment.
In his opinion, this is what a disciple should do.
"Well, it's so comfortable."
The mountain leader nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, the mountain chief and his disciples discovered a faceless man near the mountain gate today with a group of brothers and sisters..."
Zhao Xun's conversation suddenly changed, making the mountain leader find it a little difficult to pick up the conversation.
"Um?"
"This faceless man is probably the high priest of the Demon Sect... Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility of other super masters."
Zhao Xun reported everything he saw and heard today to the mountain chief without hesitation.
After all, it's up to the mountain chief to make the decision on this kind of thing.
It is impossible for Zhao Xun to make up his mind.
"What are these guys thinking in their minds? Don't you think the situation is chaotic enough? Are they going to set another fire? Or do they just want to fish in troubled waters?"
The mountain chief's eyebrows knitted together and he said very displeasedly.
"Uh... I don't even know, my disciple."
Zhao Xun really doesn't know.
"Who do you think is the most likely?"
"Well, it's either the high priest of the Demon Sect or Wei Wuji, or that monk from the Western Regions. But my disciple feels that the possibility of Yuan Tiangang and Zheng Jie is almost non-existent."
The mountain leader nodded and said, "My teacher feels the same way. These three people are the most suspect."
It was night, and there were waves of wolf howls coming from the werewolf tribe's camp.
This is the leader of the werewolf tribe, Jessaka, leading the tribe to declare their sovereignty in this way.
Not long ago, they followed Jeseka all the way to Zhongnan Mountain.
Zhongnan Mountain is a good place, and Jessaka always takes advantage of the werewolves' acumen when choosing a habitat.
Although they were not accepted by the academy at first.
However, through Jessica's continuous efforts, the alliance was finally achieved.
The representative of the academy, Zhao Xun, was very sincere. Although he did not agree with the werewolves stationed in the academy, he still allocated a first-level area for the werewolves to station themselves.
Here the werewolves can live freely.
But the good times didn't last long, and not long after, they were ambushed by the Eagle Clan.
The Eagle Clan can be regarded as the natural enemies of the Werewolf Clan.
Werewolves must be cautious wherever the Eagle Clan is present.
If they are careless in the slightest, they are likely to be picked up by the Eagle Clan and eaten as snacks.
Survival is very difficult, and it is not easy for anyone to survive.
The most important thing is that after being ambushed by the Eagle Clan and escaping from death, Jessica went to the academy to ask for an explanation, hoping that the academy would accept them and allow them to enter the academy.
The reason why Jessica emphasizes this point is because there is a powerful magic circle in the academy, which can protect the people in the magic circle from harm.
However, Zhao Xun, the representative of the academy, was very strong during the negotiation process.
In the end, Zhao Xun did not allow Jessaka to bring her tribe to the academy.
However, as a compromise, Zhao Xun still agreed to cover part of the defensive array where the werewolves were stationed.
Maybe it’s because Zhao Xun doesn’t want to lose this powerful ally?
The werewolves are still very powerful and have very unique characteristics.
These qualities are precisely what other allies of the Academy Alliance do not possess.
Therefore, it is understandable that the academy protects the werewolves in order to maintain this characteristic and this particularity.
At least Jessica felt they deserved this special protection.
The werewolf tribe is far less numerous than other large tribes in terms of number of members.
But in terms of unity, the werewolves can definitely be regarded as one of the best existences in the continent of Ellen Lore.
Jessica thought that with the protective shield, the werewolves would be able to live a peaceful life.
But this is actually far from the case.
Because Zhongnan Mountain is like a magical place, constantly attracting various tribes to flock to it.
Orcs and trolls also came.
This was far beyond Jessica's expectation.
In the continent of Ellen Lore, orcs and trolls have always been tribes that people seldom mention.
Because they are brutal and tyrannical, they often bully other smaller tribes that are weaker than them.
The big tribes also looked down upon them, thinking that they were just a group of uncivilized savages with simple minds and well-developed limbs.
The most obvious representative is the human race.
The powerful King of Casper Kingdom once publicly expressed his contempt for orcs and trolls.
Not even a single orc or troll will be allowed to enter the territory of the Casper Kingdom.
Such a strong expression naturally attracted a series of other tribes to follow suit.
Many large tribes have clearly expressed their hostility to the orcs and trolls.
As a result, the space of the orcs and trolls was severely squeezed.
They had no territory of their own and had to live a nomadic life wandering among the territories of the major tribes.
This may sound cruel at first, but if you think about it carefully, it is the orcs and trolls who are to blame.
If they hadn't been so cruel to other tribes, the major tribes wouldn't have joined forces to ban them.
You must pay for the sins you have committed. If you have the guts to do it, you must have the guts to admit it.
At least that's what Jessica thinks.
He has never had a good impression of orcs and trolls, because the werewolves were once oppressed by orcs and trolls.
These two barbaric tribes were really cruel when they encountered wandering tribes that were weaker than them, and they showed no mercy at all.
Jessaka gave up after leading her tribe to symbolically resist a few times.
Because he understood that with the current strength of the werewolves, they obviously did not have the strength to resist the attacks of powerful orcs and trolls.
If you persist in fighting to the end, the result is likely to be a wave of destruction.
This is definitely not what Jessica wants to see.
Moving flexibly and avoiding their sharp edges is what the werewolves should do.
There is no way, this is the tragedy of the small tribe, and it is also inevitable.
It has to be said that the werewolves are indeed very resilient and have survived several encirclements by orcs and trolls.
Finally, after the Dark Portal opened, Jessaka led her people through the Dark Portal without hesitation and immediately explored the new world.
The new world is the best opportunity for them to reshuffle their cards.
This has the opportunity for them to get rid of the inherent territorial divisions of the Ellen Lore continent and regain their own place in the new world.
If the good territory for exploration is seized early, the werewolves may even have a chance to rise.
But soon Jessica discovered that things were far from as simple as he imagined.
The werewolves lost their way soon after arriving in the new world.
They are completely unknown to this new world and can only rely on instinct to explore.
But there is a problem, that is, there will be a moment when instinct fails.
Once the instinct fails, the werewolves will be completely trapped.
The werewolf's most powerful instinct is its sense of smell.
Their strong sense of smell helps them locate targets and pursue them all the way.
But if their sense of smell fails, they can only rely on vision and hearing.
Their abilities in these two areas are no better than those of other tribes.
For a moment, Jessica was completely confused.
Fortunately, God favored them and finally allowed them to come to Zhongnan Mountain.
After finally living a peaceful life for a few days, we were ambushed by the Eagle Clan.
But they all survived.
I thought that this would be the end of all the hardships, but who would have thought that orcs and trolls would actually come to Zhongnan Mountain at this time.
What Jessica didn't expect even more was that the academy would actually accept these two barbaric tribes.
They actually agreed to allow orcs and trolls to join the Academy Alliance!
Jessica found it hard to understand.
How could this happen?
The academy is obviously very sensible, so why did it attract these two guys in?
Orcs and trolls are two troublemakers.
With them in the entire Zhongnan Mountains, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful.
Jessica wanted to negotiate with Zhao Xun several times, but gave up in the end.
Because the territories of the orcs and trolls are stuck on the only road from their territories to the academy.
If Jessica goes to the academy, she must pass through this territory!
So in the end Jessica gave up.
The risk would be too great if he took the risk alone.
If he is caught alone by orcs and trolls, he will be unable to fight with his two fists and will probably be torn into pieces by these barbarians.
If Jessaka dies, the entire werewolf tribe will be destroyed.
Therefore, he could only repel the attacks of orcs and trolls by leading his tribesmen to roar and declare their sovereignty within their own territory.
This is necessary because orcs and trolls are very primitive tribes.
They will instinctively retreat after hearing the roar.
This is an animal way of communication.
The werewolves master this method of communication because they can transform into wolves.
Through this instinctive move, they will tell the orcs and trolls where the line is.
They are the masters of this area, and others are prohibited from approaching.
If someone who is ignorant breaks in without permission, the less serious person will be expelled, and the more serious person will be hunted down.
Although werewolves in human form are very weak, werewolves in wolf form are not weaker than orcs and trolls in terms of strength, agility and toughness.
Especially at night, this is the home field of werewolves.
Orcs and trolls can't see where the werewolves are, but the werewolves can see them!
Werewolves can easily approach orcs and trolls, and then use their wolf pack tactics to tear these bold intruders into pieces.
There are many things that they need to defend, and they are fearless!
"Oow, oow, oow."
The howl of wolves and the roar of lions are undoubtedly the most penetrating sounds in the animal kingdom.
The former is desolate and resentful, while the latter is more shocking.
A pack of wolves howled, recalling the deep valley under the night sky.
No matter who you are, you will instinctively feel goosebumps after hearing this sound.
Even powerful orcs and trolls are no exception.
If it were during the day, they might dare to invade their territory boldly, but doing so at night would undoubtedly be foolish.
If targeted by a pack of wolves, the hunter will become the prey.
Blind invasion is not a wise move, not to mention that they are still nominally under the same academy alliance.
Therefore, Chief Ruota and Chief Hanik must try their best to restrain their own tribesmen and try not to conflict with the werewolves.
Especially under such a general background.
If a conflict breaks out at this time, there is no doubt that the ones who will be hurt the most are themselves.
The giant leader Gondos turned his eyes slightly and looked at the plains in the distance through the tall pine trees.
They have been in this world for some time.
Gondos doesn't remember exactly how long.
The memory of giants is not very good, mainly because their brains are smaller and their brain capacity is not as good as other people's.
This is somewhat ironic, considering that giants are several times the size of other tribes.
Their bodies are as tall as a hill, giving people a full sense of oppression from a distance.
Therefore, in siege battles, giants often serve as vanguards and play a decisive role.
Powerful giants can form alliances and maximize their advantages through alliances.
But forming an alliance cannot change the problem of their small brain capacity.
Even the giant leader Gondos, who is recognized as the wisest giant leader among the giants, does not have the wisdom to crush other tribes.
Even in this aspect he is much lacking.
Since then, the entire giant race has relied on intuition and instinct to move forward.
Because the giant leader Gondos cannot bring his people a more reasonable choice.
This is undoubtedly an extremely sad thing.
Because moving forward without direction means meaninglessness.
Especially for tribes like giants, every step they take is equivalent to walking a considerable distance.
Every step they take is equivalent to ten or a hundred steps for others.
Great pressure will prompt them to consume more energy.
If it turns out that what they have done is in vain, the angry giants will vent their anger on the leader Gondos.
Although Gondos is not as intelligent as the idlers of other tribes, he is still one of the best among the giants.
He knew that he couldn't move forward blindly and needed to stop and take a look when necessary.
Stand high and see far.
The same applies to giants.
Although their stature is already very tall, if they can stand higher, they can undoubtedly see further.
Now the giant leader Gondos is standing on a small mound.
He looked far away at the plains in the distance.
Different from the vast prairie he saw at first, the plain in front of him seemed very different.
Some crops are planted inside, and smoke rises occasionally.
There is no doubt that many people live in this area and it is a gathering area.
This is definitely good news for the giant tribe.
This means that the entire tribe of giants can finally get supplies.
For a long time, the giants on the road were forced to hunt roe deer, wild deer, and collect wild fruits to satisfy their hunger.
These things will only make the giants' fragile stomachs feel miserable.
After a strong stress reaction, giants will vomit and have diarrhea.
This is extremely damaging to their mental strength.
No one knew better than Gondos that the giants loved food cooked to perfection, just like their distant relatives.
Although their appetite is much larger than that of humans, the recipes are actually not much different.
The giants can't wait to eat the things that humans often eat.
It doesn't matter even if the taste of this food is very different from what they had eaten in the continent of Ellen Lore.
The giants should enjoy all this.
They have just gone through thousands of dangers to reach a new world, and have traveled such a long distance, so it is normal for them to receive a reward.
But the giant leader Gondos did not give orders blindly.
Because he knew very well that the people in this area were likely to be frightened by their arrival.
No one will feel calm after seeing such a huge creature, because they are all ordinary people, not heroes.
Therefore, the giant leader Gondos felt that they should approach this human gathering area in a step-by-step manner, so as to give the people in these human gathering areas an adaptation process.
As long as they are mentally prepared, it will be easier to accept the giant.
