Mansha City was unexpectedly lively. Many tents, carriages and horses suddenly appeared in the originally deserted wilderness outside the city. It seemed that many tribes' teams had already arrived in Mansha City first.
In addition to the teams from various tribes, those shrewd and clever chamber of commerce directors also gathered towards Mansha City at almost this time. After all, it is a major event that happens once in a century. Not only all the more than 100 member tribes of the alliance participated in it, but each tribe also sent at least one legendary representative. This means that there are at least 113 legendary powerhouses gathered in Mansha City today. .
With so many legendary figures appearing in the same place, even in the human countries that claim to have the largest number of legends, it is difficult to see such a scene. At this time, do not look for opportunities to go to Mansha City to try your luck and connect with the legendary figures. , If you don’t make a fortune, will you still be a shrewd businessman?
Countless supplies related to the battle were continuously gathered, making Mansha City rarely overcrowded. Many tribes who did not have enough spacious land in Mansha City, and many business travelers who did not have the opportunity to settle in restaurants and inns, ended up having to temporarily build simple tents and shanties outside the city.
At this time, there is no one without eyesight who dares to act recklessly around Mansha City, and if he accidentally attracts the pursuit of more than a hundred legends in the city, then I am afraid that even the gods may not be able to escape this disaster! !
Of course, the happiest person in Mansha City at this time is probably the tax official who collects the head tax at the city gate. In the eyes of the tax official, that head is just a silver coin! A conservative estimate is that if the number of people entering and leaving the four gates of Mansha City every day is converted into gold coins, it can be calculated in the thousands. That is really a daily gain.
Allen parked the team near a temporary settlement outside the North City and asked Spike and others to station themselves here. It was not that he was reluctant to part with the two or three gold coins, but he was worried that the tribe's restaurants and restaurants in the city would not be able to accommodate them. So many goblins.
Sure enough, after walking around the city, Allen discovered that the most luxurious Allen Restaurant opened by the clan in Mansha City was now overcrowded and there was no room left. The noodle restaurants built in several districts in the city can accommodate a lot of goblins, but they need to be spread out, which is not conducive to management. Allen shook his head and rejected it.
Forget it, the goblins have all experienced more difficult environments anyway. Now that the Dabi is approaching, it is not a problem to settle down outside the city for a period of time. Allen happily helped the goblins make a "friendly" gesture. 'decision.
"Your Majesty!! Blessings to you!!"
When he came to Mansha City, the first thing Allen visited was naturally the Oak Holy See in South City. At first, Allen planned to ask for a meeting with Master Oscar, but he was directly refused to meet. It seemed that he was really hurt by Allen's past actions. More than ten years later, he still has not forgiven Allen.
On the contrary, Pope Fritz of the Holy See, whom Allen had glimpsed a few times from afar but had no chance to meet formally, suddenly summoned Allen this time, which made Allen quite flattered.
"My child, may the grace of the oak bless you!"
The aloof Fritz is old but still very energetic. He wears a crown woven with several thorns on his head. Sometimes green leaves appear on the crown, and sometimes wild flowers bloom. It looks like an extraordinary item at first glance.
As one of the few saint-level powerhouses in Mansha City, and at the same time the leader of a large Holy See, Allen could not feel the slightest aura of a powerful man at this time. He was just as relaxed and comfortable as meeting an ordinary old man.
Captain Nordin also appeared in the spacious hall, and gave Allen a friendly smile when his eyes met.
"This alliance competition is a very important event for your Green Field Tribe."
Even though Felicz, who was born as an elf, is old, you can still see the handsome appearance of his youth in the past from his outline. At this time, his slightly narrowed eyes exude a peaceful atmosphere, and his hoarse tone reveals deep concern.
"Although I know that there must be information about the mirage plane in your Green Field Tribe's collection, after all, this is your first time to participate in this competition. Seeing that you personally lead the team, you must take this matter very seriously. .”
"So, I asked someone to sort out the Pope's books and files on the mirage plane. If you are interested, you can go to Avril who manages the files later, and she will take these files for review."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"
Allen quickly bent down and expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"If you have other needs, you can also talk to Nordin."
Fritz's eyes kept looking back and forth on Allen, as if he saw what he looked like when he was young.
"Tell me about your tribe. How has it developed recently? I heard that you built a trade road thousands of miles long?"
"fine……"
It was originally just a simple visit, but it took half a day to meet Felix. He took the trouble to ask Allen about the matters of the Green Field Tribe, and expressed a very caring attitude, which made Allen feel grateful. At the same time, there is also trepidation.
When Nordin took Allen out of the hall, Allen breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed.
"You should be grateful. Your Majesty Felix hasn't entertained a tribal leader for a long time!!"
As the most loyal eagle dog of the Oak Church, Nordin spoke to Allen solemnly.
"My heart will always admire the glory of the Oak Father, and I am also grateful for the help given by the Holy See."
Allen responded respectfully. Although the Green Field Tribe is becoming more and more powerful, Allen still knows very well that the relationship between him and the Oak Church is still mutually beneficial and win-win.
Without the support of the Oak Church, the Rangers, and the Sprout Church, it would be impossible for the Greenfield Tribe to maintain its current independent status in the face of the more powerful and powerful Natural Church. Without the support of the Green Field Tribe, the Oak camp's influence on the North will also be weakened, and its already small sphere of influence will be further eroded.
After helping the Orc Empire in the south to block the offensive of the human coalition and counterattacking to regain many of the original territories, the Nature Church's tough behavior gained the support of more tribes, especially the support of two of the three royal courts of the Centaur Grassland. In addition, the God of Nature absorbed and digested most of the authority left behind by the Oak Father after his sleep, and was promoted from a medium divine power to a powerful divine power, and finally had a louder voice among the gods of nature.
With the power brought by their actions in the south, the Natural Church and their allies have now influenced more than half of the wilderness tribes. Even the Snowmi tribe, which had previously rebelled against the natural camp, regretted their original betrayal. .
But it is precisely because of Allen's influence in the north that Snowmi at least did not turn their ideas into actions. They had the foothold and profits of Nasir Fortress as a link, and the external threat and enemy of Drow. , so Ariel decided to join the oak camp.
"I'm afraid you have to pay more attention to this competition in the mirage plane."
Allen's attitude made Nordin very satisfied. Before parting, he did not forget to remind Allen: "Those die-hard tribes under the Church of Nature are very likely to cause trouble for you in the mirage plane."
"When conflicts and disputes occur in the wilderness, for the sake of the temple, everyone will be more restrained in their actions, but after entering the mirage plane, there are not so many scruples."
"It's okay for you legendary powerhouses. Even if there is a gap in strength between you, the cost of setting up a frame-up is not small. Moreover, you group of legends will act collectively to clear out the core area in the mirage plane. There are other legends." Don’t dare to act rashly while watching anyone.”
"But without your protection, if your tribe's team encounters those tribes' teams, they may not be polite."
"What we can do for you is to monitor the mages who control the teleportation gate, and at least prevent them from tampering with the teleportation matter."
"So, after you go back, ask your tribesmen to be careful of the surrounding tribes and don't form alliances and cooperate with others easily."
"clear!!"
Allen nodded cautiously and replied gratefully.
"Well, good luck to you!!"
"May the oak bless you!"
"Thank you, Your Excellency."
Watching Allen leave the church, Nordin's eyes slowly retracted and his face became relaxed.
"Since you're here, why don't you come out and meet him?"
Suddenly, the calm Nordin stretched his head towards a tall stone pillar statue on the left, looked straight at the shadow behind the statue, and slowly opened his mouth.
"He and I have different paths, and meeting each other only adds to the sadness."
Behind the stone pillar, a tall green figure slowly walked out. It was the legendary Druid Oscar who Allen wanted to visit but was rejected.
"You..."
Nordin smiled helplessly. In fact, he did not agree with Oscar's actions. It was rare for Allen, a bugbear, to respect Oscar so much. Then Oscar should win over this bugbear for the benefit of the Holy See, instead of like now. alienate each other.
There are not many wilderness tribes that can still be used by the Holy See. With the slumber of Silvanus Crown in recent years, the Oak Holy See, which has lost the support of the great god, has gradually declined, and the tribes that rely on it have also fled one after another.
Nowadays, every tribe that still supports the Oak Holy See is a valuable target in Nordin's eyes, especially a tribe as energetic and promising as the Green Field Tribe.
"When you have time, you two should sit down and talk. You must also understand Allen's situation. The struggle between wilderness tribes is inherently cruel."
"He has his choice, and I have my persistence."
Oscar glanced at Nordin indifferently, then transformed into a giant eagle and floated away. He probably wanted to avoid seeing him, so he stayed away from him.
Nordin let out a long sigh, feeling heavy in his heart. Even His Majesty the Pope had summoned Allen in a low profile, in order to make the bugbear feel that the Holy See valued him. However, some guys in the Holy See were so ignorant of the overall situation. , only thinking about the persistence and belief in one's heart is really annoying.
But Nordin had nothing to do about it. The Holy See had suffered heavy losses from the deaths and injuries of legendary powerhouses over the years, and the new generation was facing a crisis due to the decrease in the number of believers. Although there is still a legendary seed appearing for the time being, with the lack of successor power, the inheritance and continuation of legendary powerhouses in the future will inevitably be greatly affected.
Therefore, each of the legendary powerful men in the Holy See is a precious asset, and their hearts cannot be broken easily for trivial matters. There is no one more loyal to the Holy See and their great Lord than them.
After arriving in Mansha City, he first went to the Oak Church to pray. Even if Allen himself was not a devout believer, it was a habit he had always adhered to. Proving many things with actions is far more convincing than your words and promises.
Just like this visit, he had a good harvest. Not only did he obtain a lot of information about the mirage plane from the Green Field Tribe's information, but he also purchased some scrolls and potions that are very scarce in the world, such as dimensional anchors. This type of scroll is Alan's favorite.
Returning to the outside of the city, he brought rich dishes and supplies to Leo, Spike and the other goblins, allowing them to have a good rest, and told them to stay safely outside the city. Allen kept walking around the city, visiting or It is to accept visits from other legends.
It is rare to have so many strong people gathered in one place. Everyone hopes to take this opportunity to make more friendships, or to exchange information with the strong people around them, so that everyone can see if there are resources that the other party needs.
Equipment, potion plants, precious minerals, World of Warcraft glands and materials, the higher the level, the more in short supply. Not everyone is like Allen, who has low demand for external items, and has always only used semi-legendary levels. The bone cutter.
For example, the main materials required for the black dragon scale armor he later replaced were collected from the black dragons he killed, which saved him a lot of trouble. Other legends do not have the same strength and luck as Allen. In the despair of being unable to further improve their strength for decades, they can only improve their combat capabilities in disguise by collecting and building more and better equipment. .
There are even legendary strongmen who secretly exchange the legendary crystals they don't need with others for the resources they need, but they don't think of handing over the legendary crystal inheritance to the tribe for inheritance.
Of course, everyone's needs are different, and it is not that simple to exchange. So when the legends gradually gathered, some people took the opportunity to connect with each other to visit and see if they could make some arrangements with other legends. exchange.
In fact, there are more convenient exchange meetings, but the time of such exchange meetings is not fixed and the scenes are very secretive. For some legends who urgently need to collect resources, build equipment and improve themselves, they cannot afford to wait for this period of time, because they are seeing The time for this league competition is coming, and sometimes a few days later may result in a lot of losses.
However, during the exchange with Yiqian Legend, Allen learned a piece of news, that is, one month before the competition begins, there will be a huge auction dedicated to auctioning various rare treasures and items needed for the competition. All kinds of supplies.
In addition to the auction, there is also an exchange meeting specifically for legends. Many legends that are not so lucky, as well as those who arrive late, will appear in this exchange meeting.
