Chapter 372: Into the Swamp
Li Muyang nodded slightly and said, "What the old man said is right, this is our purpose this time." If we want to fight against Rhodes, we must have another stable rear, and cooperation with the barbarians is bound to be done, and we must do it well! β
Scolari sighed and said, "We all know what you say, but the other party is a barbarian. Are you a barbarian? They are like wild beasts, and they have no reason to talk to them. β
Li Muyang shook his head and said, "Old handsome, you are a little preconceived. I have come into contact with a lot of barbarians during this period of time, and it is true that their worship of force surpasses ours, and Frederick, the most powerful, ascended to the heights, and the responders actually surpassed the great elders of the guardian clan appointed by the barbarian king.
However, this is only their own customs, which will be manifested in politics, life, clothing, food, housing, marriage, etiquette, funeral and other aspects. We should respect these customs and seek common ground while reserving differences for common development. β
Everyone looked at each other, and they all felt that his statement was very fresh, and they all wanted to hear what he could do to make the Central Plains people and barbarians develop together.
Li Muyang glanced at everyone and said, "The God of Light teaches us that existence makes sense. All races should be equal. Goblins are thieves and robbers in our eyes, and barbarians are also equated with beasts.
However, they all had a glorious history, and the name of the Great Goblin Empire even spread in various planes. The barbarian king Tanan also once unified the continent and conquered hell. These are all achievements that we should look up to, so why should we discriminate against them? β
Everyone looked at each other, they had heard this kind of rumor before, but everyone took him as a joke, could it be that they really ruled the mainland?
"So we have to try to reach out to them, give them room to develop on the basis of racial equality, respect their customs and religious beliefs; Help them develop their economy, educate their children, and promote and appoint talents among them.
In this way, they can gradually trust us, rely on us, and finally achieve close relationship and common prosperity! β
Scolari patted his head and said, "I've always served in the army, and even Cannavaro learned military knowledge from me. Therefore, we should make the most of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses and take charge of the army.
As for politics, leave it to Duke Ronis! If the army needs to be dispatched, we will never give up and absolutely obey the order! β
Li Muyang smiled: "The old handsome man is too polite. You have a lot of experience, and General Cannavaro has been stationed in the Highland City for many years, so he is familiar with the situation here, so I would like to ask you for a lot of advice. β
"There's nothing to say about that! We are all courtiers of Her Royal Highness Catherine, and we know everything, and we have no end to it! Scolari and Cannavaro agreed.
"Good! Then in the future, you will have to rely on the help of the two. We must make good use of this Barbarian King Conference and completely bring the Barbarians under our command! β
"This time Frederick's attention was on Po, and I left Po in the barbarian territory to confuse the enemy. Let's bring some more masters to participate in this Barbarian King Conference. As for speaking of the army, I am not ready to bring.
First, Taven's men also have some barbarians to use, and if we go there too many people, it will not be beautiful. Second, we have a secret weapon here, Emia's war space has 1,000 Rank 5 corpse witches, which is enough to deal with abnormal situations.
Jennifer is a must for the newly inaugurated Barbarian King, so this time I decided to bring Dalyan, York, Emia, plus 6 champion knights will be enough. β
Scolari stood up and said, "Duke Ronis, this is underestimating me!" Although my strength is average, I can barely be called the 8th order; And I will also arrange troops in the army for a long time, why did I exclude me. β
Li Muyang smiled: "It's not that I won't let the old man go." This highland city is our foundation, and we still need someone to sit in the town, and we can't do without Lai Shuai here. β
Seeing that Scolari was still arguing, Li Muyang waved his hand and said, "Old handsome, listen to me." The city of the Highlands is only part of the reason, the second is the swamp.
Messi and Adela went into the swamp and I was very upset. Please help me sit here, just in case, in case of an accident, please bring someone to help immediately. β
Scolari thought for a moment and said, "Okay! You've convinced me. I'd better keep my old bones in the city! Please also rest assured that Duke Ronis will always keep an eye on the situation in the swamps, and as soon as there is any trouble, I will immediately go to the rescue of them. β
"In this way, Lao Shuai Lao! Dalyan! Hurry up and get ready, we'll leave early tomorrow morning! β
"Whoa, whoa!" Spider Parker traveled through the swamp as fast as the bull leader Esin entered, and the swamp couldn't trap his huge hooves, and they quickly pounced into the depths of the Great Wasteland.
Adela and Messi rode on Parker's body, and the ten servants sat on Essien's body, speeding along the Great Wasteland.
There was a rancid smell in the swamp, which made people smell sick and sick. Parker and Essien didn't feel the smell at all, but Adela, Messi, and the ten minions they brought with them couldn't stand it.
Adela is also a pastor, and she feels her life being lost. Messi seems to be better, but the servants are also covered in green.
Adela had also mastered water magic and was proficient in healing, especially with the blessings of the gods; He kept using healing techniques to treat himself and several of his servants, so that everyone's lives could be safed and he could move on.
At first, they encountered ordinary creatures in the swamp, mostly amphibious stone turtles, water crabs, and scavenging crocodiles. These low-level demonic beasts didn't dare to provoke them at all, and even if they couldn't avoid them, most of them became food for Parker and Essien.
"Huh!" The dense grass parted in the middle, and from within jumped a group of humanoid wolf-headed monsters with chain hammers in their hands. Their bodies are as green as moss. It's not that you can't really spot them if you look closely.
A huge werewolf with a body of 2 meters and wearing delicate leather armor took a step forward, and a chain hammer the size of a small watermelon spun rapidly in his hand like a fan blade of a propeller.
"Human, stop! This is already the territory of our swamp clan, and if you go any further, it will be tantamount to aggression, and you will be responsible for the consequences caused by this, including war. β
Adela raised the envoy in his hand and said, "Respected werewolf warrior, I am the human messenger of the Highland City. On the orders of our great Bishop, Duke Ronis of Light, and Grand Duke Scolari, Lord of the Highlands, Lord of the Highlands, I have come to consult with the leader of the Swamp Clan, Lord Hydra Emperor HΓΌdra. β
The werewolves were slightly stunned, the swamp clan is a huge race, mainly composed of seven races: werewolves, lizardmen, poisonous flies, monitor lizards, wild bulls, flying dragons, and hydras. However, these races did not work together, but were infighting.
The most powerful in the swamp are the Hydra clan, who have two supporters, the monitor lizard and the lizardman. Then there are the Wyverns, who are naturally allied with poisonous flies that grow on trees; The weakest are the brute bulls and werewolves; However, because of the terrifying skills of the brute bull, even the Flying Dragon King Chimera and the Hydra Emperor Xudra also gave them three points. So there is still a weak balance between the three aspects.
However, I heard that the Hydra Emperor, the nominal ruler of the swamp, was very dissatisfied with this situation, and he already had the intention to collude with the barbarians from the outside world to actually control the entire Great Wasteland.
This action caused panic on both sides, so the leader of the Wild Bull Clan, Amokaki, and the Flying Dragon Clan's patriarch, Chimera, both sent their men to impose a blockade on the Great Wasteland, closely monitoring every outsider who entered the Great Wasteland.
As soon as Adela and the others entered the Great Wasteland, they were discovered by the werewolf captain elite Big Werewolf Bobby. He quickly ordered his men to go back and deliver the letter; But he changed his expression and smiled: "It turned out to be a human messenger, great!" Our Hydra Emperor is waiting for you, please come with me! β
Adela agreed, and then ordered Parker and Essien to activate and follow the werewolf slayer on. On the way, Adela secretly said to Messi: "Messi, pay attention, there is something wrong with this guy." The Hydra Emperor is the master of the swamp, and it is said that his subordinates call him the Holy Emperor.
This little werewolf actually called him the Hydra Emperor directly, and he didn't look very respectful; I guess there's something hidden here. You're looking for an opportunity to rush out and we're going to do something. β
Messi frowned and said, "Let's go together!" These little werewolves can't stop us. β
"No, I just want to see where they can take me, and see what they have planned. When we first came to the Highland City, we were blind to the situation in the Great Wasteland. This Cannavaro's knowledge of the Swamp Tribes is limited to knowing that his ruler is the Hydra Emperor, and he also knows that there are 7 major races, and I don't know anything else, so I want to take this opportunity to get to know the Swamp Tribes well.
But we can't just be wiped out by the enemy, and you are our hope. Messi. After you escape, you can spy on our situation and report it to the Bishop as soon as there is any disturbance. He'll find a way to save us. β
Messi listened and didn't argue anymore, and nodded secretly. Walking and walking, Spider Parker suddenly slipped under his feet, his body shook, and Messi fell down from it with a pop.
Originally, there was nothing, but it happened that Essien stepped on it and completely stepped Messi into the mud.
