Chapter 404: Blood Oath
"Shall we go?" asked Midi as she entered the group.
He ignored Zarid's sharp hostile gaze, and the other people's gazes, and only nodded to Zaknavan and Mason, and looked at Golantis.
In any case, formally speaking, he was a slave fighter for Golantis.
Moreover, in this undercurrent situation, since he has already had a showdown with Zared, then Midi doesn't mind using Golantis to block it.
Although his principle is not to help each other, this does not mean that you have to passively wait in the middle to be beaten.
Taking the initiative to muddy the water, and by the way, diverting hatred, this is what Midi is best at as a nobleman.
And Midi's gesture of taking the initiative to inquire really satisfied the arrogant Golantis.
This means that Midi sees her as the leader, not Zared.
Count on your conscience!
Thinking like this, Golantis glanced at Midi in a charming manner, and then reprimanded: "You kid, where do your eyes grow? The first warrior of our tarantula tribe hasn't come yet, where are you going?"
"Alex?" Midi suddenly understood.
Alex, the first warrior of the tarantula tribe, is not much older than Midi, but he is already a powerhouse at the peak of level 62, with the title of "Great Warrior", and is the only candidate for the patriarch.
Traditionally, the Black Dragon Priest is the leader of the "Territorial Challenge", because in order to carry out this challenge, the two tribes must make a blood contract, agree on the terms of the challenge agreed by both parties, and take an oath with the black dragon as evidence.
But in fact, there is no doubt that it is the great warriors of the tribe who are really in charge.
Because only the big warriors can really determine the final outcome of this challenge.
I just don't know, which side this tarantula's great warrior leans towards, is it the wayward Golantis, or the scheming Zalied?
Midi couldn't help but secretly guess like this in her heart.
The challenge team waited in the central plaza, receiving encouragement from the elders and blessings and cheers from the tribesmen.
Suddenly, in the distance, a huge fiery red underground lizard rushed towards it at an extremely high speed.
The rider on the lizard's back was clearly extremely skillful, maneuvering his mount through the buildings of the tribe with a agility disproportionate to his large size, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in the ranks.
It was a thin, expressionless dark elf man, wearing a magic cloak made of wurm scales, revealing only the silver handles of the two scimitars around his waist, and sat on the lizard's back, glancing condescendingly at the group.
Midi noticed that the man's gaze was neither on Golantis nor on Zared's, as if he had no eyes on the two black dragon priests at all.
However, the moment he saw Midi, the man's pupils contracted slightly.
"Human...... man whispered, his expression finally changing a little, "It's kind of interesting." ”
This belated lizard rider is none other than Alex, the first warrior of the tarantula tribe, the "Great Warrior".
The Dark Regions is a world of the jungle, and its inhabitants worship absolute strength, and Alex is undoubtedly a symbol of strength.
If the Dark Elves were shocked by Midi's astonishing act of flying the half-giants, then at this moment, when Alex appeared, the Dark Elves showed a kind of fanatical reverence and trust.
"Alex!"
"Our warriors!"
"Beat the Blue Snake boys to the ground!"
All kinds of shouts rang out from the crowd, and the big warrior whose name was shouted by the tribesmen was still expressionless, just waving faintly.
It's as if he's become a tribal chief.
However, the elders on the side didn't seem to feel anything wrong, as if it should be so.
"Let's go. "The leader, who is not the leader of the team, gave the order very succinctly.
"Let's go!" said Golantis and Zarid in unison, glaring at each other unabashedly viciously, and then each of them mounted a lizard and rushed forward.
Alex, as for him, seemed to be completely indifferent to this extremely obvious conflict, staring straight ahead and sitting still.
Is it a three-way scuffle? This shape is really complicated.
Midi felt a slight headache.
For now, though, his problem is not the struggle between the Great Warrior and the Black Dragon Priestess, but how to control his mount.
Although he can be regarded as the top knight in the Arad continent, the underground lizard, whether in his previous life or in his present life, is the first time that Midi has ridden it.
And the eighth apostle, Lotus, naturally does not have any instructions for such "boring little things".
In fact, Lotus has never ridden a mount in his life.
Fortunately, Midi could at least ask Zaknavan.
In this way, in the midst of various entanglements and surging undercurrents, the challenge team of the tarantula tribe hit the road.
Since all the members of the team rode underground lizards, this time the journey was much faster than the previous exploration by Midi and Zaknavan.
Even if they encountered some magical beasts, under the attack of this huge team, they would be destroyed immediately, and they would not be able to form an obstacle at all.
Soon, the Fluorescent River appeared in front of him.
When they arrived here, it was an area outside the control of the tarantula tribe, and Midi and Zaknavan were naturally at the forefront and led the way.
Led by two people, the challenge team crossed the Fluorescent River without much effort, and then reached the Dark Mushroom Forest.
This time, however, it was clear that the crowd had no chance to explore and loot further, because on a high ground in the Dark Mushroom Forest, the people of the Blue Snake Tribe were already waiting there.
The "territorial challenge" had already been confirmed by the two sides in the form of magical communications.
However, now that we have seen it, we must also be cautious.
According to the tradition of the Dark Regions, territorial challenges must be carried out in disputed territory to avoid either side occupying the home field.
And after the blood contract is set, in the dark, this contract power that swears to the black dragon can ensure the fairness of the entire challenge, and after the challenge is over, the contract will be completely implemented.
But the problem is, there's no blood yet.
There are many examples in history where one side has planted an ambush on the disputed territory, and before the bloodshed has been lost, the opposing side has been wiped out with superior forces, forming the fact that it directly occupies the territory, and even triggers further war.
Therefore, the period before the blood is the most dangerous.
And now that the people of the Blue Snake Tribe have arrived one step earlier, who knows if there are any traps?
Even Alex, who had been expressionless before, was slightly solemn at the moment, and he took the lead in steering the lizard towards the high ground, but he made a "scatter" gesture in his hand.
The other six tarantula warriors understood and immediately spread out in all directions, forming a sparse and unmissable reconnaissance web.
The two slave fighters, Zaknavin and Mason, were not instructed and could not cooperate directly, and for a moment did not know what to do.
But for Midi, as a commander, Alex's actions were just the most basic common sense.
Without any instructions at all, Midi directly accelerated his mount and followed Alex's side, and at the same time, gave orders to Zaknavan and Mason to follow.
Doing so, on the one hand, can play the role of protecting the Black Dragon Priest, and on the other hand, it can also make a central breakthrough at any time.
Midi's clean response made Alex, who had always been expressionless, slightly surprised in his eyes.
Of course, with the personality of this great warrior, he naturally didn't say much, but because the formation was formed immediately, his movements were much faster.
In the accelerated state, the group quickly escorted the black dragon priestesses to the central high ground.
"I didn't expect the people of the tarantula tribe to really have the courage to challenge us in territory, aren't they afraid of losing all your last scimitar?" a sneering voice sounded.
It was the first warrior of the tarantula tribe, Monks, who spoke.
This person is the cousin of Kuyd, who had a relationship with Midi, and his level has reached a terrifying level 63!
It's no wonder that when they saw Alex, who was at the peak of level 62, the people of the Blue Snake tribe did not waver at all.
After reaching level 60, the difference between one level and the strength will be much different, and the gap between the two great warriors is enough to explain a qiē.
However, Alex was not moved at all, still expressionless, and was not provoked by this provocation, but said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, start bleeding immediately." ”
"Hmph, don't worry, the warriors of our Blue Snake tribe all value honor, of course, to defeat you with dignity so that you will never be able to touch this place again in your life!" Monk said with a smile.
"I think you're just afraid of being selected and removed from the Black Dragon Conference, so you don't dare to make small moves, right?
Obviously, although the two sides are "allies" from the perspective of the whole region, friction and conflict have never ended.
Probably unless they really face a great enemy, the relationship between the two tribes will definitely not be good.
"You two, go up together. Alex put a stop to Golantis' war of words and gave the order.
Despite ignoring it all the way, the great warrior was clearly well aware of the dispute between the two black dragon priestesses.
And now that Alex had spoken, Zarid and Golantis naturally couldn't refute it, and the two tarantula priests stepped forward together, standing with the blue snake priests who were obviously a pair of masters and apprentices on the opposite side.
The two pairs of priests, representing their respective tribes, cut their fingers, drew magic circles out of blood, and chanted words.
With the completion of the incantation, the surrounding dark magic power contracted for a moment and then, it expanded, forming a huge black dragon head in the air!
"In the name of the black dragon, as proof!" both said loudly at the same time.
With this sound, the black dragon dragon head let out a deafening roar, and a genuine dragon power permeated.
