"So you've decided?"

After a while, around the martial arts training ground, a voice named Hu Mobei slowly came out in the silent silence and the stares of the gathering: "Have you decided who will be next?" ”

"You've already decided to make a change?" The answer to him was Hu Yandong, an old man who had been sitting in the other corner and had been drowsy, but at this time he opened his eyes: "I see that this general under your command doesn't seem to be in danger of his life." ”

"Do you really want to fight something that doesn't work out?" Shaking his head, Hu Mobei did not show any anger because of the other party's words: "It is enough to fight to this extent, and the knife he received is enough to represent victory or defeat." ”

"I'll leave the rest to you." Looking at the shield warrior who was still standing motionless in the center of the circular field, his voice also raised along with the gaze that turned to the surroundings: "Our Northern Army has already taken the lead, and we have paid enough price, so-"

"Isn't it your turn to do the work of the other two armies?"

The drumming wind began to appear for a moment of restlessness as Hu Mobei's words fell, and the cheers and noises from the surrounding Guan clan also rose again around the martial arts training ground with the tense atmosphere, and Gedmayne, who was facing the oppression of the mountains and fields, still maintained an immobile posture at this time, only the sound of the rising sun that was approaching behind him and constantly patting his back was still mixed with it again and again: "Okay! Okay you! You actually hide your strength! How dare you release water while training with me! ”

"You-" He nudged the other man's heavy body, and then approached as if he had just noticed something unusual, "You...... Hey, are you alright? ”

"Of course...... It's okay. Moving the shield a little distance, Gedman's answer sounding much more difficult again: "It's just ...... The aftermath of the power explosion...... That's it, just let me stand here quietly for a while. ”

"Alright, alright, you're already great." Pursing his mouth, Asahi Dongsheng closed his eyes and patted the other party's shoulder again: "I tried my best to fight a humanoid BOSS, even among most professional players, I am already a hero in heads-up, so you can take a break." ”

"It's all said I'm fine, at most I just need to relax." Answering these words with a deep exhale, Gedmayne raised his arm holding the scrap iron sword behind his back, "That's not the point of the matter now. ”

"As long as this duel ritual continues, we won't be able to hold on forever."

As he said this, the eyes of the countless Hulun clansmen's shouts around him also lowered a little: "How long do you still need?" ”

"I don't know, Nahia stayed in the tent and didn't come out." A certain stone in his arms then also made a voice belonging to Duan Qing: "But the magic array should be ready, even if the verification of this clue is not successful in the end, we will not have anything to lose." ”

“…… That's good. Closing his eyes again, Gedmayne, who seemed to be enduring pain, also breathed a sigh of relief: "The next thing to think about is how to end this farce well-"

"Say what?"

Before he could finish his words, a loud proclamation that was enough to drown out the noise and abuse around him sounded in the ears of Gedmane: "I haven't played yet!" How can you end it after you're done playing handsome? What about my lenses? ”

"No one is interested in watching your performance, and if there is, it's the Hulun people who want you dead." Pointing to the onlookers around him who were constantly waving their fists, Gedmane tilted his head helplessly: "The situation is urgent, so don't you mess around with your temperament anymore, okay?" ”

"Of course not! I've been hungry for a long time! Unceremoniously crossed the shoulder of the shield warrior, and Asahi Dongsheng, who stood in front of him with a righteous face, glared and replied, "At least let me pick a boss alone!" You bulky shield warrior can do it, why can't I? ”

"If I'm a dumb warrior, you're a dumb warrior." Covering his face a little helplessly, Gedmayne sighed deeply: "Or do you think it's easy to take on the boss alone?" It's a small thing to lose someone's eyes, but it's a big thing to lose your life. ”

"No, you can't kill a soldier, you can't be humiliated." Wiping his nose, the rising sun turned his hand and stuffed the flag he was carrying into Gedman's arms: "You have taken up the limelight? How could I possibly accept such a thing, you just stay aside and watch, I will only need a few minutes to figure it out. ”

"And then? Chased by more bosses? Pushed backwards, the grinning Gedmayne replied angrily: "There are thousands of masters of the four major legions, and the Hu Khan I defeated just now is only one of the commanders, not to mention that there are a total of nine elders in their Council of Elders, and now only three ...... have come."

"Forget it, if he wants to go out to wave, let him go out and wave." The voice belonging to Duan Qing suddenly sounded between the two people, and the interrupted voice also carried a bit of sighing: "Don't be in the end, just lack arms and legs." ”

"The plan remains the same, and we will start the ceremony as quickly as possible." As if sending some kind of signal, there was a little more decisiveness in the calm voice: "I will not object to any of your actions to show your personality, but-"

"When the determination of our Qingling Adventure Group is revealed, please don't fall behind."

The sound of communication once again disappeared on the other side of the distant Hulun settlement, Duan Qing, who had turned off the magician, then nodded his head to the snow spirit phantom ice on the side, he glanced at the door of the tent that was still quiet behind him, and the movement that was about to leave also paused slightly: "Na-Violet, is there really no need for us to stay here?" ”

"Just make sure no one is bothering us." Nahia's muffled voice then rose from the tent, "Feel free to do the rest." ”

"We can be safe, but it's hard for us to keep the news from leaking." Glancing at the scene of some Hulun soldiers lying on the ground in front of him, Duan Qing replied helplessly, "So we don't have much time. ”

"Then go ahead with the plan."

There was silence in the tent for a while, but there was a feeling of breaking the air in the woman's voice raised again, and Duan Qing, who hurriedly turned around, also stretched out his hands as if he had sensed something, and took something that flew out of the curtain into his arms: "And- take this." ”

"This task is also handed over to you."

*******************************

"Outside...... What's happening? ”

The dim scene was replaced by a yellow light, and Surtu, who was lying on a simple plank bed, opened his eyes again, and then his muddy spirit was mixed with the faint noise in the distance, accompanied by the consciousness that had not been awakened for the past few days: "Someone...... In a fight? ”

"You're awake." A glass of water handed out by an old man on crutches then appeared on his lips: "It only took such a short time to digest the power of the blood of the dragon rebellion, and your physical fitness is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary people." ”

"The blood of the dragon?" His mind seemed to become a little clearer with the water in his throat and the appearance of the conversation, and Surtu, who sat up, looked at the old man next to him with a croissant glass: "What is that?" I...... This time ......"

"Okay, okay, you're definitely confused right now." Pressing back the doubts on the other party's face for a while, Elder turned his back on his hands and then turned around and walked into the depths of the mill-like room: "And during the time you were unconscious, a lot of things did happen. ”

"It doesn't seem like it's easy to explain all these things to you."

He made a crisp sound on the ground with the cane in his hand, and finally turned his head again as if he had decided something: "Okay, considering your status as the current patriarch of the once glorious Nasu tribe, let's start with the most important things." ”

"Your clan is still alive and well, and quite a few of them survived the final attack of the Windmill Cannon." He held a bottle of wine in an emerald green bottle in his hand, and the gaze condensed on the wine bottle also revealed the meaning of memory: "Of course, because of your relationship with the oracle, your relationship with the Hulun tribe has not been so good now. ”

"Harbouring oracles? What is that? Covering his head and groaning in pain, Surtu gritted his teeth and said his question: "What about the wind cannon?" ”

"It's this thing behind me." Raising his head, the old man pointed with his cane at the machine-like beings that were still spinning in the windmill: "Thanks to the adventurer of your clan, it finally came in handy before the first round of attacks of the beast tide broke our line, although ...... Well, well, it doesn't seem like the people in the tribe are telling the truth to your people, and that's not right. ”

"Beast tide?" As if having heard of this name, Surtu's expression immediately became much more serious and ugly: "The beast tide appears near here? But here's it—"

"That's right, this shouldn't have been a point of attack for the beast tide."

Nodding his head to interrupt Surtu's words, the old man Elder walked back with the cane in his hand: "Even in the windless season, the beast tide will not easily attack and occupy those monsoon permanent places, because once the monsoon returns, they still have to give up these hard-won living spaces. ”

"Aside from the closest place to the edge of the continent, there are very few places in the Windy Continent that are not affected by the wind tide." Speaking of this, the old man's sigh became more obvious: "However, due to the long-term 'grabbing' and 'collecting' of the Hulun people, this territory occupied by the Hulun people for a long time is no longer a grassland protected by the wind. ”

"Now that all the energy of the leylines has disappeared, this has become the most suitable location for the beast tide to occupy." Pointing to his feet, Elder's voice was also full of indifference and sadness: "Everything is reincarnation and retribution, it is the backlash of those who try to break free from the shackles of the wind and finally lose the protection of the wind, and the choice made by the original patriarch when he migrated here finally pulled the thread of fate back to us." ”

"I don't quite understand what you're saying right now, but I feel like things are getting really bad." The same look of thought flashed in his eyes, and Surtu quietly lowered his head: "No wonder the patriarch of the Hulun clan made such a request during the banquet before...... Are you ready? ”

"Sort of, though I don't know exactly what the details are." Turning to hide his expression, the old man raised his head to look at the huge mechanical dome that was still running in front of him: "The second wave of beasts is coming soon, and we may not have much time to pursue this." ”

"Coming soon?" There was another huge cheer and cheer in the distance, and Surtu looked in the direction of the door with a surprised expression: "But this ...... Isn't that the sound of a fierce battle? ”

"No, that's not the sound of war." There was a hint of a smile in Elder's tone of reply, "That's the duel ceremony that's going on. ”

"It's a few adventurers in your clan who want to challenge the duel ritual of the entire Hulun clan."

Knock knock.

The sound of a knock on the door then came from the front of the two men, and the dull and abrupt knocking also interrupted Surtu's exclamation again, he first glanced in the direction of the door, and then at the back of the old man who was gradually walking forward with a cane: "Who is it?" We do not accept visitors at this time. ”

"I'm a hundred-step peer."

A dull response then appeared outside the door, and the answer also carried a bit of emotionlessness: "I came with a token from the Loufin Chamber of Commerce. ”

"The Loufin Chamber of Commerce? No wonder the guards didn't stop you. A little glint flashed in his eyes, and the old man turned to look at Surtu's face with a peculiar smile: "Your subordinates are really clever enough to choose the person who is most likely not to be stopped to act as the messenger's side. ”

"So—" The old man regained his indifference in his voice as he lengthened his voice again: "What are you doing here?" ”

"Can we open the door and see each other?"

Unaffected by this attitude, Baibu Wushuang's voice still sounded unhurriedly outside the door: "I have something I want to give to the resident inside." ”

"No, this is a tribal land." The old man rejected the other party's request: "I don't know how many people you have brought, if there are any lurkers nearby, I need to ensure the safety of this place." ”

"Hmph, this ordinary wooden door ......"

It seemed that he was a little dissatisfied with the other party's reply, and the response from outside the door sounded again after a disdainful snort: "That's it—I'll leave what I'm going to hand in at the door, and I'll leave." ”

"You can help him transfer the things."
