When the other party saluted, Gavin had already turned over and jumped off the half-moon horse. He smiled and said in return, "This is my honor, Chief Fearless Stone."
In the previous life, there was a Goliath barbarian among the Zhentarim slave warriors. Although the two only worked together for a few months, the Goliath barbarian unfortunately died in battle.
But it was enough for him to understand the Goliath barbarian, and incidentally to understand this big race and some of their unique customs. For example, they have three names, one is a nickname given by their parents, and the other is a gift from the tribe members.
The last one of his nicknames is the name of their tribe.
The full name of this Goliath chieftain is Eglath *Fearless Stone* Mountains.
Goliaths prefer other people to call themselves nicknames rather than nicknames, because this is the name that is closest to their temperament.
Those Goliath tribes are obviously distributed in large mountains far apart, but their appearance, lifestyle and customs are surprisingly similar. Obviously it is not due to simple communication, but like many unique races, some things are engraved on them.
What is in their souls is hereditary.
As expected.
After hearing Gavin's name, the smile on Chief Goliath's face became even stronger. He couldn't help but step forward and give Gavin a thick hug. This is the real way Goliath greets him.
It's just that this Goliath chief acted lightly, as if he were dealing with precious and easily broken porcelain, fearing that he would crush this small race with force.
On the contrary, Gavin was more relaxed, hugged the other party forcefully, patted the other party's thick back, and introduced himself: "I am Gavin Nott, from the outside Kingdom of Tethyr, Darauma.
Envoy of the city, we have just eliminated the evil servants of Moando under the city, as well as the roots of the gods of the original temple that they drove, I came to check the situation first."
The opponent's thickness was even more exaggerated than it looked. He spread his arms, that is, hugging most of the opponent. He just patted the opponent's back rather than patting the opponent's back ribs. Even here, it was full of the thickest muscles.
The smell on the opponent's body was not unpleasant, it smelled like the bluestone that had just been pulled out of the soil, even though the opponent had several festering wounds on his body.
"What? The evil god's pet servant has been eliminated by you? The evil reptile that the terrifying tree root turned into? How did you do it?"
"Haha... It's great, it's really great. Those servants of the evil god have finally been killed. Our homeland is finally saved."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Even if you can easily kill a flying winged night shadow, you are still too far away from killing that giant root of corruption. It is simply not something human beings can do."
"We must race against time to find a way to purify the mountains and purify our bodies. We cannot waste too much time here."
Upon hearing Gavin's words, the Goliaths were immediately startled, and all their faces couldn't help but move closer.
There are people who are ecstatic, people who are in disbelief, and people who are questioning, especially the latter who are the most numerous.
Because many of them have seen with their own eyes the terrifying size of the giant root of corruption, and many of them have witnessed with their own eyes the horror of the root of the gods entering an aggressive state. The crushing traces left by it are the best proof.
.
How long has it been since the Root of God left Mir Forest?
Now someone suddenly came to tell them that the terrifying and evil existence as huge as a hill had been eliminated, which was really hard to believe.
"I remembered, I have seen you, it was you who attracted the evil god's corrupt root away." Another Goliath suddenly said.
This is a female Goliath, and her appearance is a little different from other Goliaths.
The skin of other Goliaths is blue-gray like bluestone, and has copper-green markings.
Her basic skin color is also blue-grey, but the markings have turned into khaki. They are not randomly distributed, but have a mysterious and mysterious feel, resembling some kind of rune. Her height is about the same as the Fearless Stone Chief, but she is thicker.
There is a huge difference in numbers. She is probably not half as thick as the latter. Her legs are straight and slender, full of stylish but not exaggerated muscles. When she stood in front of Gaiwen's body, she felt that her thighs were almost reaching her chest.
, fully explains what it means to have legs everywhere.
Another difference is that she has long silver hair, braided into a thick long ponytail.
As for other Goliaths, most are hairless, especially the males, both on the top of their heads and on their chins.
She is not a pure Goliath in appearance. She has the sharp edges and corners of Goliath, but also has the slim melon-seed appearance of an elf. She also seriously lacks Goliath's unique bone protrusions, in terms of aesthetics.
In terms of character, she conforms to both human and Goliath races.
Needless to say, the focus of human attention is her appearance, figure, and fullness. She has it all. Those special markings are much more beautiful than tattoos and the like, and are full of alien style.
What Goliaths pay most attention to is their markings. For them, these markings indicate their future destiny, are their source of strength, entrust their souls, and are the fundamental thing that sets them apart from other Goliaths. Everyone
All the markings are unique.
They never do any tattoos on their bodies, and even try to cover up these markings as little as possible.
This Goliath combines his professional abilities with the markings on his body, making him unique among other Goliaths.
The other Goliaths respect her slightly more than the chief.
Gavin was also deeply impressed by this Goliath, not because of her unique appearance, but because of her unique abilities. She was the special spell caster. The previous spell that was suspected of being a mass stone skin spell was made from
She performed it.
Seeing Gavin's eyes fall on her, this Goliath, who didn't look particularly old, introduced himself generously: "Kelly Lisa, a shaman from the mountain tribe, a warden of the earth,
They like to call me Camellia."
"Camellia." Gavin couldn't help but repeat her nickname.
Goliath's nickname is not given randomly and usually has a special meaning.
The chief's nickname is Fearless and Stone, which is easy to understand, fearless and as stubborn as a stone.
As for the camellia, the connotation is more profound. In the high mountain environment where many plants are difficult to grow, you can often see this pure and beautiful flower blooming proudly. It is neither arrogant nor impetuous, showing its unique charm. It is often regarded as a symbol of humility.
, but also has the connotation of ideal love.
The Goliath people have the habit of planting, picking and drinking tea. The camellia tree has special meaning to them. Being named after the camellia also means that it is the treasure of the tribe.
Camellia asked respectfully: "Mr. Gavin, can I take the liberty of asking how you killed that monster?"
"When that monster chooses to move towards a populous city, it must bear the wrath from the god. It is the goddess of strategy who descends her incarnation." Gavin directly attributed most of the credit to Ms. Strategy, so
It is easier to gain their trust.
As soon as the true God was mentioned, most of the doubts on the faces of those Goliaths disappeared immediately.
Although the root of the gods is powerful, for ordinary people, if it is not something that can be easily captured by the gods, it depends on whether they can take action or not.
As for whether gods will interfere in worldly affairs.
When will it intervene? How will it intervene?
This is not something ordinary people can figure out.
If they can be understood, they are not gods.
"Are you here to find a cure for the festering disease?" Although Gavin used a question, it contained more affirmations.
To most other races, Mysnoel is a beautiful city worth claiming as their own.
But for Goliaths who like challenges and climb mountains, it is too short and too comfortable, which is not their type.
Especially when they still don't know that the Root of God has been destroyed by Gavin and the others, and they can't be sure whether the terrifying monster will come back, it is definitely not a wise choice to rashly occupy Misnoel.
If they had the purpose of finding a solution to the festering disease or seizing the treasure of Myth Noel, then it would make sense.
Camellia Carissa from the mountains admitted generously: "Yes, in the past year, our tribe has been suffering from the pain caused by the canker disease. Those cultists have been using this method to erode our tribe.
Home, corroding our souls, trying to make us succumb to their power and make us serve their evil gods.
But this is delusion, we are Goliath, we are the mountains, and we will never give in to evil."
"Yes, we are Goliath, we are the mountains, and we will never surrender."
"We would rather die than associate with the cultists."
The surrounding Goliaths responded in agreement, with indescribable pride in their expressions.
"I see that your symptoms are far less severe than those of ordinary creatures. Is this related to your special physical fitness?" Gavin asked curiously.
These Goliaths have more or less traces of ulcers on their bodies.
It’s just that ulcerated wounds are usually not large, and many are semi-scabbed.
Eglas, the chief of the mountain tribe, replied: "Our Goliath's special physical quality is only one aspect. This matter is mainly thanks to our Camellia. She found a special way to divert most of the evil power.
It effectively relieved our pain. If it weren't for her, we might not be able to persist until now."
On Kelly's face like a knife, there was a sadness that could not be concealed: "This matter has a price. Those evil forces were not eliminated, but were transferred to our holy mountain by me and temporarily sealed.
We are here to find a complete solution."
"Oh? Myth Noel has a way to cure the festering disease? A way to purify the power of corruption?" Gavin then asked.
The two Goliath leaders looked at each other and seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding. Finally, it was Keligai who said: "We are also trying our luck. After all, those elves dare to use the Festering Mystery Lock as a guard barrier.
There must be a way to combat the canker blight."
Gavin was slightly disappointed, "You mean, you don't fully understand Mess Noel?"
He thought he could get more information about Myss Noel from these Goliaths.
Although the Mystery Lock, the largest barrier in Mis Noel, has been opened, it does not mean that the place is completely undefended.
Who knows what magic traps those elves set when they left.
No matter how fierce the previous fight between the drow and Goliath was, it was fought along a wide mountain road, and few dared to rush into the surrounding elven buildings.
