"Sir, I am Bit Bai Xiao, a senior knight. I am here because I participated in a coup that year."
"Sir, I am Waynes Lanyuan, from the family of the current Prime Minister of the Dragon Kingdom. I am here because I failed to prevent a coup."
"Sir, I am Petreu Baixiao. I am from the family of the previous king of the kingdom. I am here because our family was involved in a coup." Lant listened to the introduction of the three knights and silently looked back. His deputy Dugan Blue Dragon.
"Sir, that coup has nothing to do with me. I just received the order not to care about the coup. I didn't expect to be squeezed out in the end." Having just completed the reception of the magic furnace and the communication room, Ben Call was sent away. The human race The demon supporters were the first to crowd over and prepare to pledge their allegiance.
In addition to the three high-level knights above, there are also seven intermediate knights: Edith Lanyuan, Bilicit White Owl, Leleto Frostwolf, Bebubetos, Virgin Wall Maned Wolf, and Kony Lett Dragon Claw, Bitovia Elk; three intermediate mages: Bilosca Lanyuan, Chiapason Blue Lion, and Josephpan Feilong. According to the list, basically all major vassals The family is represented.
Most of these people were the victims of the high-level struggles in the empire, and they existed in various families. Most of them were left out by the family not long after the coup. More than 4 years ago, when the three major pillars of the country joined forces to settle the old accounts of the coup, these people were taken out by the family. Offset.
The most miserable person here is of course the Lanyuan family. The Lanyuan family has controlled the position of prime minister of the kingdom for thousands of years. Their family is still the family of the previous king and the wife of the current king, so the people involved in the coup It's very special.
Listening to the knights and mages introducing themselves one by one, Lant couldn't help but sigh,
"No matter what position you took back then, you ended up here. So why did you launch a coup?"
"Sir, the people who really benefit are small characters like us?" Dugan complained. Those affected by the coup arrived here more than three years ago, when the leader of the Brown Bear tribe signed an agreement with an agent of the Salt and Iron Division, in which the Salt and Iron Division promised to provide some technical support and labor.
The naive brown bear thought that the human race would send some devil-supporting prisoners sporadically, or buy slaves from other kingdoms. Unexpectedly, the Blue Dragon family directly sent a knight group over.
These people were escorted by the Blue Dragon and Feilong families, including more than 100 demon-wishers and nearly 1,000 demon-free ones.
"So, the Lanlong family not only exiled you, but also used you to plot against the Brown Bear tribe, right?" Lant immediately felt that the Lanlong family was really good at it.
"Well, that's about it." The exiled humans brought with them strong fighting power, a complete family, and a complete set of feudal order. They built a system similar to a parliament of nobles in the originally chaotic iron ore human settlement. , 3 senior knights and 4 intermediate mages formed a decision-making group. The mages were responsible for providing technical support, and the knights organized the demon-free people and the demon-possessing people to mine the ore.
Only human mages can maintain and operate the two sets of small blast furnaces brought by the Salt and Iron Division. The original owners of the iron mine, the Brown Bear Tribe, discovered that after they took over this batch of so-called human slaves, the entire iron mine was divided into two equally matched parts, the human race and the barbarian tribe. The human race was the producer of iron ore and pig iron, and the brown bears were the camps. As protectors, the barbarians changed from the owners of the iron mines to partners.
. . .
"Hmph, you cunning humans! Seize the camps and mines that we have guarded for generations. If our brown bear tribe hadn't taken you in, how would you be today?" The high priest of the brown bear tribe roared. When the brown bear heard the complaints of the human knights, , the anger will not come out,
"You actually secretly contacted outsiders yourself and kept us in the dark? Do you still have our brown bear tribe in your eyes?" The brown bear high priest is roughly equivalent to the level of the human race's high priest. It is also second to none in terms of combat power in the entire plain. In this camp Li is only inferior to the four magic goblins, so he can point at the noses of the three high-level knights and curse.
"High Priest, you are not being honest. The magic furnace room and emergency communication room in this iron mine were not built by barbarians. You said this is the brown bear's iron mine, but I also said it belongs to our Benma family. "Lant looked at the incompetent and furious barbarian high priest, and could only remind him that the so-called barbarian iron ore was just a dove occupying a magpie's nest.
"Lord, you just told all the barbarians that you are the leader of the Galloping Horse Tribe, and now you tell these knights and mages that you are a noble of the Dragon Kingdom and the successor of the Galloping Horse Kingdom?" High Priest The corners of the mouth are raised,
"Are you a barbarian or a human?"
"Of course they are barbarians and humans!" Lant was not at all confused about his identity.
"Who has the rule that barbarians cannot be human beings, and human beings cannot be barbarians?"
"You!" The high priest is considered well-informed, and it is rare to see Lant being so shameless.
"In the Galloping Horse Tribe, I am the leader of the barbarians. Not to mention the barbarians on the plains, even the Dragon Kingdom thinks that I am the most ferocious barbarian in the past 20 years." Lant suddenly discovered that legends are legends, and the kingdom's official recognition also has the benefits of recognition.
"In Yeqi City, I am a noble, and my noble status is recognized by the Holy Supreme Council of the Empire."
"Humph, even if your identity is recognized by the people of your tribe and recognized by the human kingdom, it is not recognized by the orc royal court." The high priest is one of the few barbarians who has been to the orc royal court, and even the influence of orcs on the barbarians,
"Without the recognition of the royal court, why do you say you are the master of Galloping Horse Plains?"
"Only because I led the barbarians of the Galloping Horse Tribe to find the God of protection!" Lant watched as the old priest's smile gradually stiffened.
"You wouldn't say that as a barbarian you need to believe in the God of Warcraft, right? We are not half-orcs!"
"This is impossible!" The high priest was stunned. Although the barbarians believed in human gods, they severed contact with gods hundreds of years ago. It is impossible for the young man in front of him to go to the Kingdom of God and directly invite the gods back, right?
"You don't believe it, do you? Since you are a high priest, I can show you the power of our gods!"
"God?" The high priest muttered, unable to speak. As a priest, he, like every priest in the human empire, hopes to go to the Kingdom of God one day.
However, as a barbarian priest, he did not even know the name of his own god. When he was wandering in the orc royal court and the human empire, he believed in many ancient gods, warcraft gods, and human gods. However, after he returned to his hometown He discovered that the original gods could not protect him on this plain, and he could only shake the gods one by one during the sacrifice, and he would shake whoever had a signal.
That feeling of emptiness and confusion has been with him since he returned to the plains, but he didn't expect that someone could actually bring it up today and let the barbarians get a response from God.
"You...can you really do it?"
