Once the tent was set up, Kane respectfully invited Malone to move inside.

Although he is not afraid of the cold and heat, he will not refuse if he can be comfortable.

The commander's tent researched by the goblins is still quite comfortable, and the interior is divided into two rooms, inside and outside.

There are beds and other places to rest and sleep in the inner room, and office equipment such as tables and chairs in the outer room.

"Your Majesty, the Balkans are back."

"Invite him in."

"Yes!"

After a while, the guards led Balkan into the largest tent in the middle of the camp, which was Marlon's temporary quarter.

"Sit down." After the other party saluted, Malone invited him to sit across from him.

Seeing his dusty appearance, a guard poured a glass of water and handed it over.

"Hiccup...... Hiccup......"

The barbarian was not polite, or perhaps he was really thirsty, and took a few sips and drank it clean, and the cup in the middle never left his lips.

"Hoo ......"

Placing the glass of water on the table, Balkan let out a sigh of relief, and it seemed that it suddenly became a lot more relaxed.

"Tell me, how's it going?" Malone asked calmly.

Balkan pursed his lips and organized his words: "The situation is a little different now than it was then. ”

"Hmm!" Malone replied lightly and motioned for him to continue.

"The ancient spirits don't kill as often as they used to."

"Does that mean we're here for nothing?" Malone raised his eyebrows.

"No, it's not ......," the Balkans hastily denied, "not in vain. He's still killing people all the time, just not as often. ”

"What do you mean?" Marlon's frown did not loosen, he did not like this inexplicable change.

Sensing the pressure from the human king, the barbarian hurriedly explained, "In the past, after slaughtering the population of a tribe, the ancient spirits would go to the next target without stopping.

"Whether our people are hiding in the mountains or in caves, he can always find the nearest one. In that time, tens of thousands of us died at His hands alone. ”

"But it's a little different now." The barbarian's expression was not happy or frustrated: "Every time he slaughtered a tribe, he would disappear for a while, not knowing what to do, not knowing where to hide, and no one could find him. ”

"In other words, the ancient spirit is now in the process of being lost?" Malone asked.

"Yes." Balkan nodded, "But don't worry, some speculate that it won't be long before he reappears."

"During this time, our people did not do nothing, although they could not find each other, but they also knew some patterns of their haunting.

"Based on the place where the ancient spirit disappeared last time, the target of his next attack must be here."

"Since you know that this is the target of the other party's attack, why don't you move the tribe down the mountain?" Malone really couldn't figure it out.

Balkan smiled wryly, "Where can I move to?" The other party is as fast as lightning, running fiercer than a fierce beast, and no one can stop it, if we don't kill it, we will have no way to escape sooner or later, besides......"

As if he didn't want to continue, he shook his head, but kept his mouth shut.

"Say anything more?" Marlon didn't want to let it go, and began to get to the bottom of it.

The Balkans were a little helpless, but they had to continue.

"When you came, my people were relatively cold, didn't they, even if you said you were here to help?"

Marlon thought for a moment and nodded, "That's true, what's the problem?" ”

He always thought that this was the customs of the other party's tribe, or just a little xenophobic, and did not delve into it, but now that he heard the Balkans mention it, could it be that there is another hidden meaning?

"We barbarians are not the same as you humans, whether it is the habits of life or the ...... here"

He pointed to his temples, "In your words, it's a comparison axis, sometimes my brain cramps. ”

"Sneer......"

Hearing him say this about his race, Malone couldn't help but laugh.

Balkan was also a little helpless, and awkwardly touched the braid on the back of his head and said, "Of course, in our words, it is bravery."

"In the past, I thought so, but after seeing the world, I realized that it can also be called stupid!"

Speaking of this, his emotions became excited, and his tone was a little angry.

"In order to reduce losses, our king actually has a lot of strategies, but unfortunately no matter how good the ideas of the upper echelons are, they may not be able to implement them when they fall below."

He looked up at Marlon and said, "As a king of the human race, you should also have something to understand, right?" ”

"Hmm......" Malone thought about one of the reasons he came here: to give some self-righteous people a chance.

He couldn't help but nod and said, "That's true." ”

"Hehe......" Balkan smiled, "like the tribes down the mountain, we warned them to migrate, but everyone was indifferent. There are also large tribes that have been slaughtered before, and we have also warned that they can split into two or a few in the short term to delay time. ”

He shook his head and said, "It's a pity...... No one listened, and they all felt that they were invincible in the world, and never believed that anyone could be hostile to a tribe on their own. ”

"They didn't see it with their own eyes, they didn't believe that the ancient spirit was an existence that could be comparable to the barbarian king or even stronger than it!"

"That's right......" Ma Longqi said, "how did the barbarian king be recognized by the barbarians in the first place." ”

Thinking of the time when the barbarian king was still there, no one seemed to be unconvinced.

Wrong!

It's not for nothing, the current barbarian king Orfgang was once called a rebel, that is, an existence that stood on the opposite side.

However, such people are only a few after all, and when the barbarian king is alive, there is only such a one.

"The former barbarian kings were killed!" Balkan explained: "It's a bit like the ancient spirits, they are all killed one by one, and the only difference is that as long as you surrender, you can survive." And now...... Gu Ling and Ben don't give people a way to live, and all the targets they find are extravagant hopes to even escape! ”

Talking to the Balkans can be regarded as solving some of the doubts in Ma Long's heart......

…………

It was also during the time when the king was waiting for the barbarian Gu Ling to appear in the north, and something bad happened in Zhongzhou City.

In some armies, there is some kind of tandem, and even some newly retired knights are united by those who have a heart.

Somewhere hidden, several nobles who were once famous in the North County, and now unknown idlers of Seris, are having a secret meeting.

They are all "smart people" who saw the opportunity quickly and surrendered early, only had their land confiscated and kept their property, and even received a lot of compensation!

These people don't sleep in the middle of the night, and it is naturally not a legitimate thing to go to a hidden place to discuss.

In fact, they are all beings who have opposing the rule of Marlon.

Especially on the issue of aristocratic treatment, these people, who are accustomed to acting as prestige on the heads of others, suddenly lose their prestige, and become famous, but without real power, and naturally they are unwilling......
