Chapter 472: Elder Witch
After a pause, Sirika continued: "After Martins joined Shenlong Island, he repeatedly asked the underground lord and the Black Dragon Clan to counterattack the mainland, hoping to unify the Wu Clan again and occupy the large area of land occupied by the Wu Clan at that time. But Martins was not treated well on Shenlong Island, because the Black Dragon Clan was more interested in dealing with the Titan Giants of the Alchemy Country, so Shenlong Island completely ignored Martins' request and insisted on starting a war with the weaker Alchemy Country, who knew that the Alchemy Country became more and more courageous with the help of the Titan Giants, and fought countless wars with Shenlong Island, winning and losing each other, until now, their war is not over! ”
"The Wu clan suffered a great loss of strength after this catastrophe, not only lost one-third of the population, but also lost Medusa, an extremely powerful army, and finally had to replace Medusa with a monitor lizard, strengthen the military power of their own clan, and give the monitor lizard the same petrification ability as Medusa! At the same time as the Wu clan was in internal friction, the strength of other races in Middle-earth was quietly rising, especially the elves and Aracya, who were trying their best to expand, and the Wu clan had no strength to face the expansion of the elves and Aracia alone, so they had to form an alliance with the beast tamer clan who were also difficult to support alone, and established the Mizusawa country, which has been until now! ”
"In order to distinguish the witch clan forces taken away by Martins, the world calls them male witches, and the witches who take women as the rulers are called witches, at first of course we did not recognize such a split, but after a long time, we have to agree with this statement! This is the approximate historical origin of the Witch and Witch! ”
"Ahem, Mr. Higg, Mr. DeLongso, do you hear anything?" Haynes said with difficulty.
"I only heard that you are at odds with Shenlong Island!" Higg said, "But why don't you take advantage of the war between them and the Alchemy Nation to kill the Divine Dragon Island?" ”
"It's not that we don't want to kill it, it's that we don't have the strength!" Sirika turned out to be the topic and said, "After all, the Mizusawa country is composed of two major tribes, the witch clan and the beast tamer clan, and the beast tamer clan is at odds with the barbarian country and Alasia, and the hatred of the mainland has not been clarified, and the Mizusawa country, which is ruled by the beast tamer, is of course unwilling to cross the sea to fight and occupy the barren land of Shenlong Island!" ”
"It's understandable that Alasia and Mizusawa are strong, after all, when Alasia was strong, she tried every possible means to seize the territory of Mizusawa Country!" Higg said, "What kind of hatred can there be with the barbarian country? ”
"Hehe, why is it called the Beast Tamer Clan?" Sirika smiled, "There are no big beasts in Mizusawa Country, some are all aquatic creatures, and most of them are reptiles. The real beast tamer is in the Barbarian Country, and that's where the big beasts appear! ”
Higg smiled and asked, "You mean, in fact, the beast tamers of the Mizusawa country are actually a branch of the beast tamers of the barbarian country, or can it be said that they are traitors?" ”
"So to speak!" Sirika nodded and said, "But unlike Martins' betrayal, the beast tamers of the Mizusawa Kingdom were forced to break away from the Barbarian Country and go to the territory of the Minazawa Country to survive because they were oppressed in the Barbarian Country. The funny thing is that since the beast tamers of the Mizusawa country broke away, they have been using the beast tamer as their clan name, and the serious beast tamers of the barbarian country have no choice but to be with the traitors, so they have to change their clan name to the battle mage clan! ”
"Forgive me for taking the plunge!" Higg smiled, "The beast tamers of the Mizusawa country were forced to break away because of persecution, this is completely the statement of the beast tamers of the Mizusawa country, and you, as allies and co-rulers of the same country, will of course support their statement!" As for what kind of oppression it is, it is actually impossible to verify it today, and there is no need to verify it. But Martins' defection, in the eyes of Shenlong Island or the world, may not be regarded as the persecution of the witch clan, we just listened to the one-sided words of your witch clan, of course you are speaking from your own standpoint! ”
Iona and Delonso were taken aback, but they didn't expect Higg to be open-mouthed, and he didn't give any face in front of Haynes's dying person, and directly said that the witch clan may not have made mistakes themselves, and the betrayal of the male witch clan may not have the shadow of the witch clan's cruelty in it, and Higg's words are simply too arrogant.
Unbeknownst to him, Haines listened to Higg's words, but smiled and said, "What Mr. Higg said! Ahem, the biggest shortcoming of the witch clan is that they live in the past, in the powerful shadow of antiquity! Ahem, ahem, never thinking about why his own clan betrayed, and put all the blame on the traitors! Ahem, cough cough, maybe the patriarchs of the tribal branches may not agree with what this seat said, but this seat is already a dying person, I hope you can let this seat finish speaking...... cough cough cough ......"
Haynes, who was getting weaker and weaker, spurted a mouthful of blood towards the wooden basin next to the bed, and Iona wiped the blood from the corner of Haines' mouth with tears in her eyes, and Haynes continued, "Ahem, ahem...... It is precisely because of our arrogance that we will lose the majesty of antiquity, and it is precisely because we cannot hear the voices of others and only believe in our own strength that we will gradually withdraw from the stage of history and become the last force...... cough cough cough ...... If the witch clan continues like this, resting on their laurels, arrogant, and unable to integrate into today's mid-course society, the final result will be drowned out by history...... cough cough cough ......"
"Elder, don't say any more!" Iona looked at Haynes struggling to speak, and couldn't bear it, crying and shouting!
"Iona, after the death of this seat, you will succeed you as elder!" Haynes looked at everyone and exclaimed, "What do you guys think?" ”
"No, Elder......"
"Iona, don't speak...... Ahem...... Haynes waved his hand, stopping Iona's words.
"Iona is a shrine maiden of the Xiangjing Clan, and she cannot succeed to the position of elder!" "Besides, even if a dozen of us agree, the other dozens of people may not agree!" ”
"Ahem, ahem...... The Xiangjing clan will find someone to replace Iona's shrine maiden identity! "If you don't think Iona is suitable, choose one who can convince the people!" Iona is young, but this seat will give you a convincing reason...... cough cough cough ...... Prove that she is best suited to be the elder of the witch clan! ”
Seeing that the chiefs of all the tribal branches were silent, Haines then said to Higg, "Ahem, ahem...... Mr. Higg, you have promised this seat before...... cough cough cough ...... As long as you can do what this seat has entrusted to you, it is your duty to do it...... cough cough cough ...... Now, I want to leave Iona in your care! ”
"This ......" Higg was taken aback, he didn't expect that Haynes' condition was to marry Iona himself, which he didn't expect, he wanted to refuse, but in Haynes's state, could he be ruthless enough to refuse? Besides, when I first entered the lobby, I had already promised Haines in advance that as long as I could do it, I would go all out, how could I go back on my word now? Higg looked at Iona, and Iona happened to be looking at herself with tears in her eyes, and Higg didn't know how to answer!
"Mr. Higg...... cough cough cough ...... Why, you don't want to? Haynes saw Higg hesitate and struggled to sit up.
"What's unwilling, the twisting and pinching of a big man!" Delonso said angrily, "It's decided, I'll make decisions for you in this matter!" ”
"Master Delonso...... cough cough cough ...... I need to hear Mr. Higg say yes before I can count! Haynes said with difficulty.
The other dozen or so patriarchs were also very puzzled, even if they gave Elder Iona the identity, it seemed a bit too much to marry the elder to someone who was not a witch clan.
"Okay, I promised, I promised the Elders, to help take care of Iona!" Higg held his breath and finally spoke, feeling relieved.
"No, it's not to take care of, I want you to marry her...... Ahem...... "Haynes laughed, "you come here...... cough cough cough ......"
Higg walked forward twice, and when he reached Haines, Haines stretched out his hand to Higg with all his strength, grabbed Higg's left hand, and then with great difficulty, handed Iona's hand, which was already in his other hand, to Higg, and put the two hands together.
"Okay, I'll marry you!" With tears in his eyes, Higg turned to Iona, looked her in the eyes, and said, "I'm willing to marry Iona!" ”
Haynes finally breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as he was deflated, he immediately collapsed on the bed, coughing heavily, but there was an indescribable smile on his face, "Okay, great...... cough cough cough ...... What do you get hired? ”
Higg couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't expect Haines, the female martial arts elder, to know a lot, and her own clan used the form of marriage, but she didn't know where she knew about the next hire: "What does the elder want?" ”
"I want a ring...... cough cough cough ...... It is...... cough cough cough ...... Ring of Brimstone! Haynes smirked.
Not only Higg, but even more than a dozen patriarchs were surprised, and even more shocked than Higg!
"Ring of Brimstone?" A dozen patriarchs screamed in almost unison.
Higg was not very interested in the Brimstone Ring, as a dowry, it really didn't matter, and he was shocked to see how Haynes had found out that he had the Brimstone Ring, and he took the Brimstone Ring from his pocket and put it on Iona's ring finger.
"Tell me about it...... Ahem, ahem......" Haynes continued with a smile, "Does Iona be the elder of the witch clan?" cough cough cough ......"
"See Elder Iona!" Sirika immediately saluted Iona and said loudly.
"See Elder Iona!" The rest of the dozen or so people also saluted Iona together.
Iona was at a loss, she had never seen such a scene, her eyes looked at Higg, but when she went to see Higg, she stared at Haines, and suddenly cried out in grief: "Elder......"
Everyone followed the prestige, and saw Haynes smiling, but the smile had stiffened and his head was crooked......
Haynes died, and her beautiful smile was forever fixed on her face, so serene, calm, and without regrets......
"Elder......" This is the result of knowing for a long time, but everyone still can't help but sobbing with sadness, and even Delong has tears in his eyes and bows deeply to Haynes......
