Chapter 458 "Successor"? The God King's Will Lasts Forever! Bonfire Banquet
Among them, the "Mercenary Hall" is one of the characteristic buildings.
It can be understood as an urban stronghold with its own "Mercenary Guild". Normally, it can hire a small number of mercenaries for combat, as well as pay to hire a certain number of mercenaries.
There is also "forced conscription" in wartime status!
but……
With the guild weapons missing, the already weakened [Sky City] lost about half of its defense.
Abilities like "Forced Recruitment" and "Forced Taxation" cannot be activated without guild weapons!
"It hasn't been long since I woke up, and now I have to go back again."
"Time is a terrible thing."
An inexplicable emotion flashed across Glos Horn's face. His brown eyes stared at the glaring sun in the sky, and a cheerful smile appeared on his goat-like face.
"Sure enough, apart from the name of the God King, only poetry and music can be passed down forever."
"The God Kings will surely return!"
"The appearance of this heir of God...is this the instruction of the God Kings?"
More than 500 years is too long.
Goatmen are not a long-lived race. The reason why Gros Hornfury still looks middle-aged today is because it started hundreds of years ago.
Every once in a while, he would take the initiative to go to the temple and use the environment there that has the ability to "stop time" to sleep in order to prolong his life.
But there is a limit after all...
Can he wait until the return of the God-Kings?
Gros Hornfury did not know.
He couldn't wait, Zhen's race... had a longer lifespan, but it also had its limits.
Maybe it's just that guy!
A monstrous figure appeared in Gross Horn's mind. He shuddered slightly and shook his head.
As a servant created by the God-King, if he really passes away one day, then... he needs to find a qualified successor.
Except for the God King, no one is qualified to control the [Sky City]. The so-called "heirs" are the new servants!
Gros Horn came back to his senses, a look of determination and coldness appeared on his face.
We need to return to [Sky City] to discuss, as there is still a variety of information and intelligence that needs to be investigated!
"When the dragon's breath rends the sky."
Bang!
"The light of dawn is blocked by the broken dragon wings."
Bang!
"Eight supreme crowns have descended."
Bang! Bang!
"Resurrect all the withered starlight~"
"Look! The mighty power of the God-King weaves a rainbow bridge of truth~"
"His music is infused with immortal chords—"
“…”
The crisp sound of drums sounded!
The elegant and ancient melody sounded again. As the wind and sand blew away, there was no figure at the place where Gros Horner had just been.
"May the will of the God-Kings endure forever!"
…………
——Entering November.
Tang Zheng suddenly realized that he, who was always in a hurry, was actually in a state of "doing nothing".
The level has been raised to 80. If I want to go further, I lack information on obtaining professions, as for arrangements in other aspects.
Whether it is the Council Nation or the temptation against the Eight Desire Kings Guild, Princess Lana and the Elf King are currently taking their own actions.
This won't produce results in a short period of time.
certainly.
The only one who had some free time was Tang Zheng.
The Council Nation, the Kingdom of Re-Estize, the Baharus Empire, the Silian Theocracy, the Holy Kingdom, the Elf Kingdom, except for the "Kasanas City United Nations" that he has not set foot on.
These countries are directly or indirectly influencing the Tang Dynasty, and certain changes are taking place.
In this undercurrent situation.
Tang Zheng felt that he needed to "calm down" and carefully think about his current plans and arrangements, and even review his past actions.
Night.
Next to a lake deep in the hilly area.
The orange-red bonfire was burning with firewood, making crackling sounds from time to time. Three water fish weighing seven or eight kilograms were placed on the bonfire.
There was also a cleaned wild boar and spotted deer nearby.
The sizzling sound of dripping grease caused the bonfire below to burn more fiercely, making the atmosphere of the bonfire banquet even more intense.
The air was filled with the aroma of various barbecues and the rich aroma of wine.
Bottles of wine named "Blood Red" were scattered on the ground, reflecting a bright red luster under the firelight. This is the most expensive wine in the kingdom.
Even for the subhuman race, this is a rare and fine wine.
"Rune technology is the greatest dwarven forging technology."
"Shut up! Duan, Rune technology is already outdated."
"You bastard, what bullshit are you talking about!"
"The rune items I forged are much more powerful than your magic items."
"ha!"
"Don't you even look at the forging materials you used? I can make 10 magic items with those materials!"
“…”
The three dwarves, Gongde, Shi, and Dual, were all red-faced, drunken, and arguing loudly with their beards and eyes glaring.
Every word!
The three dwarves would occasionally pick up the large ceramic bowl and take a generous sip of wine.
Since the "blood-red" wine had been drunk up, the three began to drink the wine in the "large wine vat", the lizardmen's treasure.
Apart from the fact that the taste is relatively poor, it can also be described as fine wine for the dwarves' taste.
The dwarf Gong Dezheng is Tang Zheng, the rune craftsman who was taken away from the dwarf kingdom.
Dark Dwarf Stone was the leader of the Dark Dwarf tribe, who originally lived in the hilly areas. The previous hill wars were more or less instigated by the Dark Dwarfs.
Now,
The dark dwarf tribe has completely surrendered to Tang Zheng.
As for the Gray Dwarf Forger, he is the forging minister of the Gray Dwarf Oasis in the Valley of Despair, and he has a grudge against Tang Zheng for genocide.
but.
Knowing that he could not take revenge and that he was the only one left in the entire Gray Dwarf clan, now, in addition to studying the art of forging, he wanted to rebuild the Gray Dwarf clan.
Enri, holding an empty kettle in her hand, walked lightly past the three quarreling dwarves, seemingly not wanting to disturb their argument.
I heard that dwarves are not very good at drinking.
"Although the three dwarves are arguing, they actually agree with each other."
This thought flashed through Enri's mind. With the help of the orange-red light emitted by the burning firewood, she saw a conspicuous figure on the other side of the campfire.
A snake-like demi-human with a colorful luster all over his body. Whether it is day or night, as long as there is light, his scales will always attract people.
"Mr. Kecks, Mr. Hector Weiss, and Mr. G. King."
Enri, with her chestnut-blonde ponytail tied across her chest, walked forward briskly and greeted the three demihumans of varying sizes.
Beast General Hector Weiss looked at Enri, a gentle touch showing on his expressionless face, and nodded slightly.
"Oh! It's Enri."
"King Wu" Ge Jin took the roasted pork leg and bit off most of it with his sharp teeth. His eyes lit up:
"I heard that a lot of interesting things happened during your trip."
"Mr. Go King, you can't use the word 'interesting'."
Enri held the empty pot in both hands, placed it on her chest, and responded in a serious tone:
"Whether it was the incident in the Tob Forest or the war between the Empire and the Kingdom, many people died."
"Feel sorry."
Ge Jin was a little embarrassed. He raised his big arm and patted his head. Then he swallowed the food in his mouth and asked seriously:
"I heard that during the war between the Empire and the Kingdom, there was a Four Horsemen named Rot Wolf, right?"
Enri recalled briefly and nodded. "Yes, this Rotten Wolf was defeated by the Blood Rose, Renas."
Speaking of this.
Enri felt a little happy in her heart. As a citizen of the kingdom, she naturally hoped that the kingdom would win the invasion of the empire.
"Yeah."
Go Jin's expression was a little complicated, as if he remembered the name Lenas.
"Rotten Wolf" is the previous generation of "Martial King", and the two naturally know each other. Since he can be recruited by the Blood Emperor, his strength must have improved, and it is very likely that he has entered the realm of heroes.
I didn't expect that I would lose.
Having stayed in the empire for such a long time, Ge Jin also has a special feeling for the empire.
"What's going on? Miss An Li."
Seven-Colored Scales could tell with a click that Enri had something to do with him. Its snake-like body gently wiggled, raising its upper body slightly.
"Please feel free to speak."
There weren't many humans at the bonfire party. Apart from that scary man, there was only Enri in front of him. She looked at all the demihumans the same way.
A strange human girl!
"Seven-Colored Scale" Kokashi commented in his heart.
"Um... can Kokashi use magic to create water?" Enri asked a little embarrassedly.
"First level 'Water Creation'?"
"Seven-Colored Scales" clicked.
"Yes, I heard from Miss Kurushe that this should be the magic."
Enli nodded quickly and picked up the empty kettle in her hand: "Could you please help me fill the kettle, Mr. Kokkesh?"
"It's just a small matter."
The scarlet eyes of "Seven-Colored Scales" Kakashi flashed, and he responded with a smile while sticking out his snake tongue. While casting magic, he spoke doubtfully:
"I wonder if Miss An Li can explain this? After all, there's a lake right next to us."
Level 1 "Water Creation"!
A stream of water condensed out of thin air and quickly filled the kettle in Enri's hand.
"Water Creation" is considered a life-related magic. It is not offensive and the water produced is relatively sweet.
"Seven-Colored Scale" Kokashi is not only a warrior, but also possesses weak magical abilities. However, magic is not his main means, so he has only learned some simple life magic.
"Water Creation" is one of them!
The reason for learning this magic is that it belongs to a variant of the snake king, and the colorful scales give it a higher status and majesty.
therefore.
Always keep the whole body clean to make the scales more dazzling, which can show its majesty and is also a silent self-affirmation of power.
"Because the captain likes to drink plain water."
Enli had no intention of hiding anything and said softly, "So I thought I'd bring some clean, sweet water for the captain."
"Seven-Colored Scale" Kakash's eyes flashed with surprise. This was an unexpected piece of information.
As An Li left.
Ge Jin started arguing with "Seven-Colored Scale" Kokesh and fought. Kokesh did not refuse, and the two soon started fighting not far away.
Make this bonfire party even more lively!
The White Mist Witch, the Green Leaf Witch, the Lizardman Kuruxue, the Tree Elf Pinis, and Nfirea sat on the other side of the campfire.
The sound of laughter among several female demihumans.
This made Nfirea a little uneasy. He really couldn't appreciate the appearance of the demihumans as humans, but to Nfirea, their voices were all pleasant.
“Tang…”
Enfirea felt that he should go back and continue researching medicinal herbs, but he didn't want to waste Tang Zheng's kindness.
This bonfire party was an activity organized by Tang Zheng for everyone to get to know each other and communicate. It was a gathering of all the core members in the Abelion Hills.
"It feels... pretty good."
Nfirea chewed the fish in his mouth silently, raised his head, his golden bangs covering his eyes, and looked around curiously.
The laughter of the Twin Witches and others, the quarrel between the three dwarves, and the fight between the demi-humans showing off their strength.
It clearly looks full of chaos.
Yet, Nfirea felt an inexplicable harmony and peace, even though he had been busy researching herbs and had no idea what to do.
It seemed as if they were all calmed down in a subtle way!
"Grandma, I think I'm liking this place more and more, even though these demihumans look scary."
Nfirea's face unconsciously smiled, a bright smile under the light of the bonfire, and he turned his head to look at the distance:
"Tang, thank you... for letting me see a different world, and for showing me so many precious and unknown medicinal herbs."
Next to the lake.
Tang Zheng was lying lazily on the ground, his head resting on the soft black-haired belly of the evil dog, holding a meat bone in his hand and throwing it casually.
“Ah~”
The evil dog barked happily, opened its mouth immediately, bit the bone handed to it, and began to eat it with a crunching sound.
The water was cold near the lake and frozen over in the center. It was already cold in November.
but.
This bit of coldness had no effect on anyone present. Even the seemingly weak Nfirea was level 28.
"Captain."
Enli walked over with a clean glass in one hand and a kettle of boiling water in the other, walking briskly and joyfully.
"Oh, Enri."
Tang Zheng turned his head and lazily did not get up from the evil dog. He just greeted it lightly.
An Li didn't care. She smiled at the evil dog, walked to the side, knelt on the ground, then poured a cup of hot water into a glass and gently placed it next to Tang Zheng.
The air is quiet.
rustling~
A white ice feather floated past my eyes.
"Um?"
Enri was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sky and found that the sky was full of white snowflakes falling, making a soft rustling sound.
"Is it snowing?"
Tang Zheng had already stood up, leaning against the evil dog, and looked at the frozen lake. He smiled softly, thinking of the steaming cup of water:
"Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest."
"Auspicious snow... a good harvest... a good year?" An Li stuttered a little, as if she couldn't understand the meaning.
"To put it simply, heavy winter snow is a good omen." Tang Zheng took a sip from the hot water cup and went back with a smile.
"Ah~" the evil dog followed with a soft bark.
