277 League Turmoil (6)
"Well, Arthur, what are we supposed to tell him?" Looking at Fan Zhong who was asleep, Leon not only asked Arthur on the side, as an old friend for many years, he knew that Arthur had a plan at the beginning of their conversation;
"What to do, since the messenger is already asleep, let him rest first, we should also go and meet those 'friends', those humans must be very curious about what happened last night!"
"It seems that this is the only way to go, so I'll prepare first. β
"Hmm... Wait, this time on the banquet list, add the high priest of the Tiger tribe. β
"Tiger tribe, their identity should not be enough to participate in this celebration!" Arthur glanced at Leon and shook his head helplessly;
"Leon, you handle many things well, but in terms of tribal traditions, etiquette, you are too much like your father, Riley;
You just asked me how to let Fan Zhong help us to convince other tribes, in fact, there is a very simple method in front of us!"
"The simple way, is it related to the Tiger Tribe?"
"It seems that too much time has passed, and you have forgotten how we met the Tiger Ling tribe in the first place!"
"At the beginning, I still remember that their people have been hunted down and killed, even the young children in the tribe, and we can't look past them, so we saved them. β
For the scene of the first encounter with the Tiger Tribe,
"That's true at the time, it's very common for the orc tribes to fight each other, especially in our time, but this kind of hunting and killing is too much, do you remember what the people of the Tiger tribe said at the beginning?"
"This... I can't remember exactly!" was asked by Arthur this Young, about the events of many years ago, Leon can remember what happened, it is already very good, it is too difficult for him to fully remember what was said at that time!
"Hahaha, I don't want you anymore, after all, everything in the empire needs you to control, and it's normal for you to forget these small things. β
"So, was there something particularly important that I didn't pay attention to at that time?"
"If it was at that time, what the half-orcs of the Tiger Ling tribe said was indeed not important, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it could even be said to be false, but now, what they said may be true!"
"Now?" Christos Arthur's words left Leon a little confused, and he didn't know what Arthur was trying to say;
"You'll know later, let's go and prepare the dinner party, this is also the first time we've hosted a human banquet, remember to make it perfect!"
"I understand. With that, Leon left, time was running out, and there was still a lot of work for him to prepare!
There were only two people left in the room, Christos Arthur and the sleeping Arthur, looking at Fan Chong, Christos couldn't help but fall into deep thought;
"Looks like there's more to ask Gritzel!"
..................
.........
...
As night fell, the Temple of Wadlow was lit up again, and it was very lively like the last Winter Festival celebration, but this time the protagonist was no longer an orc, but a human from the Federation;
Gritzel walked through the crowd, and under the guidance of the maid he came to his place, and until he sat down, he was still very confused;
Originally, he enjoyed the sunset peacefully in the territory of the Tiger Tribe, and after Fan Chong's blessing, the half-orc warriors of the Tiger tribe were no longer afraid of the sun, and even liked to enjoy the care of the sun;
Gritzel was of course the same, except that he liked the afterglow of the setting sun, and while he was enjoying it, suddenly a man blocked the sunset;
This, but what made him very annoying, just when he wanted to be angry, opened his eyes and saw a familiar face, it was Leon;
He had come only for one thing, and that was to invite himself to the banquet with men to-night, for which Gritzel knew a little, but according to the laws of the past, it was impossible for him to come forward;
But Leon didn't give him a chance to explain, just gave him an order, and left, leaving Gritzel messy in the wind, and after thinking for a long time, he thought of many possibilities, and finally locked in one;
The recent actions of the Tiger Tribe may have caught the attention of Christos Arthur.
Although not long ago, when the Scarlet Empire officially declared war, Christos Arthur once said that in this battle, whoever occupies the territory through her own forces can occupy it without her consent;
But now, the war has not continued, and even the two sides have this joint posture, and the holding of this league has already explained everything;
"Christos found himself at this time, could it be because of the recent crazy expansion of the Tiger Tribe?"
Just as Gritzel was thinking, he suddenly saw a fruit plate full of blood berries and put it in front of him, and the dinner had begun.
With the melodious sound of the trumpet, Christos Arthur was the first to enter the main hall, followed by the leader from the human camp, which also made Griezel meet these people for the first time;
Then came the real protagonists of the tournament, the contestants, and this time the place of the Temple of Wadlow was reserved for them;
In the lively atmosphere, the dinner went very smoothly, and the contestants on both sides had a friendly and polite trial, and in the process, Gritzel also saw a different attack from the orcs;
Among them, the humans who cast some magic were the ones who made him pay some attention, which not only reminded him of Fan Chong, he was also a fire magician, but he didn't know how he had been in the Scarlet Trial Tower recently;
Because of the league, Gritzel lacked a lot of information on the Military Academy, and the last news he received was that Fan Zhong also participated in this freshman competition;
"But now it seems that the adult should have lost the election, but that's right, the adult is just a freshman, and it is still difficult to face the warriors trained by these major tribes since childhood. β
Both sides entered the arena to test the relatively ordinary players, but it also added some fun to the dinner, and in the process, it was the best time to gather information from both sides.
In the midst of this atmosphere, a man suddenly stood up, holding up a cheerful atmosphere, and asked Christos, looking at the human costume, Gritzel remembered, as if it was from a force called the Church.
That's right, this man is Bishop Moos.
Originally, after Joseph conveyed Lucifer's order, he had been thinking about how to find out the news in the spiritual temple last night;
If you want to break in, it is obviously impossible, not to mention so many guards, maybe the person who presided over the spirit attraction ceremony last night is no longer there, and when you break in, you may not be able to get out;
To be on the safe side, he grabbed one of the guards of the guards, and after being confused by the spirit, he got some information that there was no one else in the spirit hall except the guards, and the person who presided over the spirit guidance last night had been picked up by Leon;
Who is Leon, Moose still knows, it is the closest orc to Christos Arthur, and it is also the half-orc with the most power besides Christos;
After learning this, Moose knew that it would not work to quietly abduct that person according to her original plan, and she could only find out who the person who presided over the spirit was first;
However, it was obviously impossible for him to pass through these ordinary guards guarding outside the Spirit Hall, and his only chance was to take advantage of tonight's dinner;
"Your Majesty Christos Arthur, thank you for hosting such a feast for our league this time, we have all experienced the enthusiasm of the orcs and your sincerity tonight!"
"You're welcome, this is what we should do!"
"Taking advantage of the lively atmosphere now, I would like to ask, is the pillar of light that rushed to the sky last night also your majesty's arrangement?"
As Moose said this, the scene suddenly fell into silence, and all the forces present, whether it was Skin, Hogg, or the representatives of the Twelve Dukes, were very concerned about what happened last night;
Even Gritzel, as a half-orc, naturally knew what the appearance of the pillar of light last night represented, but he was curious about who caused all this;
The other twelve dukes, the same, the importance of the spirit attraction ceremony in the hearts of the tribal orcs, it is self-evident that under normal circumstances, the spirit hall will not be opened, and it will only be opened when a major event occurs, such as the spirit attraction sacrifice;
Such a sacrifice is held every year, but in the past, when the sacrifice was held, it was only held after the consultation of the Twelve Dukes, but this time, the Twelve Dukes did not receive any news;
This point makes them not only a little suspicious, isn't it Christos?? Arthur, who had other ideas, wanted to disperse the power of the Twelve Dukes, this was the second time he had decided on his own since leaving the Scarlet Trial Tower;
At this moment, Christos Arthur, sitting on the throne, with a gloomy face, did not reply, such a performance made more people curious, and even Leon beside him noticed a trace of abnormality;
He slowly approached Christos Arthur, trying to remind him that it was rude to ignore Bishop Moos's behavior in this way, especially at this juncture;
But then, he saw Arthur secretly make a gesture to him, which also let him know what Arthur might have planned, so he didn't come forward;
You know, Christos Arthur had long expected that the current scene would definitely happen at today's banquet, but what he didn't expect was that it was Bishop Moose who asked the question;
According to her original plan, she wanted to use this spiritual attraction incident to suppress the arrogance of the Twelve Dukes, and after he came out of the Scarlet Trial Tower, he has been sorting out the situation in the empire in recent years;
It was found that there were many tribes where the Twelve Dukes belonged, and they no longer looked like the original tribes, and even began to transform into humans, and there were big problems in some tribes;
He wanted to use this banquet to try to lure them out, and at the same time warn the other tribes that the Scarlet Empire was a half-orc empire, not a cake they wantonly divided;
After a long silence, Skin and Hogg did not have any attitude, but among the twelve tribes, there were already half-orcs who couldn't help it, and questioned one after another;
"Your Majesty, I wonder if you conducted a spirit attraction last night?"
"Yes, Your Majesty Arthur, if it is really a spirit induction sacrifice, then shouldn't we also discuss it with a few of our tribes?"
..................
.........
...
As this voice grew, the people who could enter this dinner this time were all orcs with real power in the tribe of the Twelve Dukes, such as leaders, commanders, and even generals;
Some of them were asking, some were complaining, some were even directly questioning Christos Arthur, and of course soon the old men of the tribe stopped him;
It's just that the voices of these old men are too weak to withstand the clamor of these young people, and soon a farce is formed;
Christos Arthur didn't say a word in the process, but he kept watching everyone, especially the young orcs, and he probably understood the main reason for the Twelve Dukes' tribal defense!
"Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, I am pressured to explain that I am also an ignorant of what happened last night, and this can be attested to by Dean Vince Mock of the Military Academy!"
"Since this is the case, then how could there be a spirit attraction sacrifice last night, and many half-orcs received the blessing of spirit beasts from the spirit light pillar, and their strength was improved. β
"Who are you?" A fat-headed, big-eared orc in the crowd stood up and questioned Christos, and the armor on his body indicated that he was from the Bloodclaw Army;
"I, I'm the Bloodclaw Army, the deputy general of the third army column of the Heavy Claw Legion-Anton!"
"I'm asking you what tribe you're from?"
"I, I'm from the Rat Tribe!"
"Interesting, interesting!" Hearing Anton's words, looking at Anton's appearance, Christos suppressed the anger in his heart and glanced at Leon, and then Leon nodded;
"Regarding last night's incident, the reason for its starring role is because of the spirit beast messenger, and because of last night's introduction, he also fell into a coma, and there is only so much I know!"
When Christos Arthur finished saying this, he left, which also heralded the end of the dinner, and everyone who heard the news had different thoughts in their hearts;
Among them, Moose's idea is the most exciting, this time he is one step closer to the mission, grasp the key word of spirit beast messenger, he will find him in a short event, and catch him, and take him into Edenland!
On the other hand, Gritzel seemed to have been hit by a critical attack, he knew better than anyone who the spirit beast messenger was, but what he didn't expect was that last night's spirit inducing sacrifice was actually related to Fan Chong;
At the same time as he was shocked, a person quietly came to his side and said to her, "Your Majesty wants to see you, come with me!"
In a daze, Gritzel followed the attendant in front of him into Christos Arthur's palace, and heard a roar from a long distance;
"Check it for me, check it well, I want to see if there are few orcs like Antu in my Bloodclaw Army!"
Later, Grezel, who was waiting outside the door, saw a young man walk in front of him, and from his body, Gritzel smelled the breath of many insect-shaped monsters;
"Come in!"
While he was wondering who it was who had just left, Christos's voice was already coming from inside, and with apprehension, Gritzel walked in, and he felt a coercion pressing against him;
"Gritzel, we shouldn't have seen each other for a long time!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, we haven't seen each other for five years since the Eastern Campaign!"
"That's still a long time, do you know what I'm looking for you this time?"
"This ......" Grazel was still clear at first, but when he heard about the Spirit Beast Messenger not long ago, he was already a little unsure;
"At the temple of Vadelo just now, you also heard about the spirit induction sacrifice last night, but there are some things I didn't say in full, such as 'Garden of Eden'. β
"Garden of Eden!!"

...
Time is moving quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the time has come for the official start of the league, and all the contestants are ready, after last night's celebration, they have made contact with the contestants on the orc side;
"You also ate it at the banquet yesterday, right?"
"You mean the blood berries?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Of course I ate it.,It's incredible.,Originally, I thought that in this world,There are only fruits that increase spiritual power.γMedicinal herbs and the like.,There will be no existence to enhance flesh and blood.,But I didn't expect it.γγ β
"There are too many things in the Orc Empire, and many of them are something we haven't come into contact with, otherwise, think about how those big forces would have this league with the Scarlet Empire!"
As everyone went by, a huge Colosseum appeared in front of everyone, and this was the main place for the next league match.
