Chapter 292: Clan Assembly
"At first, it was like this, the strength you showed when you were in the mining area was extraordinary, Uncle Han thought that you would be able to shine in the city-state meeting, but I thought that the sword had no eyes, and it was difficult to protect it, so I didn't know how to talk to you, but then I found out that you had become a high-grade product, so there was nothing. Historically, the city-state councils have resolved disputes between medium or low grades, and high grades have become the highest combat power of Liancheng, and they are the main force against demons, and they cannot be easily damaged. So this time, I, the Gao Yang clan, will send someone else, and you only need to be responsible for leading the team to suppress the formation. β
Shen Lin first explained, and then hesitated: "Actually, when I know that you have become a second grade, I still don't know how to tell you about it, I'm afraid of ......."
Chen An smiled and waved his hand and said, "Don't be so careful, I am not a brother who has no experience, and I will not have a grudge against the Gao Yang clan because of this matter." β
Of course I don't mind, and I don't have a sense of belonging, how can I mind, and the other party is just right for this attribute, as long as you show your value, you can immediately get the cultivation of the other party who spares no effort, this trend may make most people feel uncomfortable, but for Chen An, who fought all the way from the dark division, there is still a sense of intimacy.
Shen Lin was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Chen An seriously, although his Wanfa heart sound could not be accurately read under the condition that the other party was guarding his heart, he could still detect simple emotional changes, so he found that Chen An really didn't care, so he smiled and said: "I knew that you were open-minded, come, don't get drunk tonight and don't return......"
After a night of carnival, on the second day, the clan meeting officially began, and there were many more people than Chen An imagined.
The Twelve Cities are the largest gathering place for humans, but they are not the only ones, and there are many human clans and tribes in the deep mountains and old forests.
There are almost hundreds of representatives of various clans, but there are only more than 30 seats in the clan assembly, and the others can only accompany the last seat. And the only 30 or so seats are also sorted in turn, and it is clear who is strong and who is weak.
As a guard, Chen An took Shen Lin and accompanied Jiang Xijun to sit on the fifth seat, and the fifth seat was the ranking of the Gaoyang clan of Qingfu City in the entire Twelve Liancheng clans. Chen An first looked down and found that there was a fifty-year-old man sitting on the seat of the Qingyang clan in the seventh seat with a kind eyebrow, and when he saw Chen An, he smiled back.
Shen Lin introduced empathetically beside Chen An: "That's Jiang Li, the head of the Qingyang clan, a smiling tiger, you must be careful when you take a picture in the future." β
Chen An was noncommittal, and continued to look down, and found that the Gao Yang clan of Jinglan City was actually sitting on the twenty-six seats near the end, and none of the other four clans in Jinglan City were sitting in the top twenty seats, so he couldn't help but be surprised to Shen Lin: "What is the basis for this seat arrangement? I see that Jinglan City is well built, not worse than Qingfu City, why is their dominant clan seat so low?"
"Comprehensive strength, a lot of factors will consider the existence of the god level, the first ten seats, there must be a god level guardian at home, even if the clan wants to rearrange the seats, it will not move in general, between ten and twenty seats, the existence of the god level is not very certain, occasionally there will be for the sake of fame, earn a seat order, and after twenty seats, it can already be determined that there is definitely no god level in the family, at most there will be one or two super products to support the faΓ§ade. β
Chen An suddenly, indeed, when he was in Qingfu City, even if he had broken through the wheel of life, there was always a sense of depression in his heart, as if there was something that always released coercion, and the suppression made him breathless, and as soon as he arrived in Jinglan City, his whole body and mind were lively, at first he thought it was an illusion, but now he understands that this is the case.
It's just that according to his estimate, the combat power of this so-called god level should be comparable to that of the martial arts master of Daqian, but in fact, the pressure on him is so great, and the power of the heavenly immortals is nothing more than that.
Chen An asked suspiciously: "Is the influence of the God Sealing Rank so great? Doesn't it mean that the God Sealing Order is only for deterrence, and it can't be easily attacked?"
Shen Lin said disdainfully: "Not to mention the Fengshen Level, this Jinglan City seems to be prosperous, but in fact, it also occupies the advantage of the terrain, it is in the center of the Twelve Liancheng, there is no need to face the cadre army and the blood demon tide, of course, it can develop steadily, as the material transfer station of the core of the city, and has a good commercial development, it can be described as unique." If you really talk about strength, it may be inferior to any other city. There are not one or two of these five clan hunting teams, and being able to sit in this clan conference is more due to the fact that they have become the spokesperson of other city families. For example, the Gao Yang clan in Jinglan City has a good relationship with us and will help us act as an agent in transactions with other cities. As for the god level, I don't know, maybe when the cadres come over, you can see the strength of the god level with your own eyes. β
So that's the case, although Qingfu City does not have to face the threat of the dry army, it is the first line to resist the blood demon tide, after the twelve cities moved east, they have experienced five blood demon tides in a row, and they are still standing, which is also the capital of the Gaoyang clan and the Qingyang clan can occupy a high position in this clan conference, no wonder Shen Lin is so disdainful when he talks about the clan of Jinglan City.
Shaking his head, not dwelling too much on these distracting thoughts, Chen An turned his head to look at the seat of the head of the Gao Yang clan. Sitting in the first seat turned out to be a female head of the house, with a beautiful appearance, gorgeous makeup, and a fiery red cotton armor that was very eye-catching, which was simply the focus of the entire venue.
"Gui Wucheng, Ming Luan Clan Yu Huangxi, the pinnacle of super quality, whether it is her personally, or the Ming Luan Clan or Gui Wucheng behind her are out-and-out overlords, and the only one who can compete with her in the Twelve Liancheng is the Jiuqiu Clan of Lan City. β
Following Shen Lin's description, Chen An looked at a man on the second seat who was covered with heavy armor from top to bottom, including his face, this man's physique was not inferior to Jiang Qiu, and he was taller than Chen An sitting there, and the cups and fruit plates on the table in front of him were small compared to each other.
"The lord of the Jiuqiu clan respects Si Hong, the pinnacle of super quality, their Jiuqiu clan occupies the soul card, the strength is infinite, the resistance is amazing, and Si Hong himself has also cultivated some kind of powerful supernatural power, and his cultivation method is to wear this set of Xuangang armor weighing 10,000 catties, it is rumored that his person is the strongest form when he takes off the steel armor, but so far no one has seen what he looks like after the steel armor. β
Chen An is just interested in cultivating people, but in fact, he relies more on the intuition he has experienced between thousands of lives and deaths to label people, and there are four kinds of labels: weak scum, you can try your hand, dangerous, and you will die. After listening to Shen Lin's introduction, he did not hesitate to label these two people as dangerous, and then his gaze teleported to the third seat and unceremoniously marked the word danger.
Shen Lin followed Chen An's gaze and saw the long-bearded middle-aged man on the third seat, and immediately said: "The Lord of the Jumu Clan of Jumu City is Modu, and the one below him is Tang Ke, the Lord of the Royal Dragon Clan of Jumu City, and the sixth seat below us is also the Lord of the Hong Clan of Jumu City, Pang Gan, if you talk about combat power alone, Lancheng should be the first, but if you take all aspects together, Jumu City, which has three major clans, is a well-deserved first. β
After briefly understanding some of the specific conditions of the Twelve Cities, Chen An looked into the field again, and suddenly found that there was actually a seat above the first seat, and an old man with a wrinkled face sat on it, which made Chen An surprised.
Let's not say that the old man can grow old like this and not die, it is a miracle in the Eastern Wilderness, even his strength of the sixth grade cannot sit in such a high position. The strength of the six products may be a good hand in the city, but it can't enter the eyes of everyone here at all, what is the situation.
"Well, that's Wu Yue's Clan, the host of this Moon Altar, it's usually not very useful, but it's still good to let him preside over the meeting, at least no one will be unconvinced. β
Chen An was speechless, in the Twelve Liancheng, although the blood moon belief is no longer there, some witches still survived, specially to preside over some ceremonies, teach some etiquette, and even the powerful big clans in each big city will raise some, specifically responsible for ancestor worship and other affairs, which can be regarded as a custom in the Twelve Liancheng.
Among them, the Wuyue clan is the most popular, after all, the blood moon belief has existed in the city-states of all races for countless years, and there will always be some remnants, and the main Wu Zhu in the twelve cities is the Wu Yue clan, as for the other Wu clans, they either change their clans, or they can only fight the autumn wind in the small clans.
Shen Lin sat behind Jiang Xijun and gave Chen An the common sense of the Eastern Wilderness, but the clan conference over there had already begun.
Although the next countermeasures have been determined by several giants before, there are still some details that are still unresolved, and they need the cooperation of some small clans and small forces to bring them to the conference and discuss them one by one. Everyone expressed their opinions, but under the adjustment of Wu Zhu, it was also orderly, and gradually various countermeasures were introduced, including active attacks, fixed-point defense, post-war clean-up, and even defeat and migration...... Because there was an experience a hundred years ago, and now everyone is familiar with it.
Chen An didn't listen to half a word, he was all recognizing people, usually when someone stood up to speak, Shen Lin would introduce him to the other party's name and origin, and even some rumors. Shen Lin is not a jack of all trades is not enough to describe, it is definitely a jack of all trades, almost wherever Chen An's eyes move, he can tell that he is ugly.
Just when everyone was about to discuss, a few people in tattered clothes, wearing animal skins, and their faces with oil paint stood up, and they didn't go through Wu Zhu, they directly promised Jiang Xijun and the other clan lords who were sitting in the first few seats that they were willing to assist in the defense, but asked for money and food.
"What city are these people from?"
"Mountain people. "Shen Lin is as omniscient and omnipotent as ever.
"Mountain people?"
"Although the Twelve Cities are the largest and only human gathering places, in other places, there are still some scattered Terran villages, they are scattered in the mountains and forests, slash and burn, some are oriented to civilization, and have successively attached to the Twelve Cities and established auxiliary cities to protect themselves, while others continue to live in the mountains and forests and retain their own heritage. We call these people mountain people, and they are very different from our customs, and even their cultivation paths are different. β
Chen An was surprised: "Are there other ways to cultivate?"
