Chapter 148 does not end
The Clan Conference betrayed the future of the Jiangu tribe. Not only did they stand up for themselves, they also "controlled" the election of the king, making him a mediocre and safe ruler. Dagon could not guess the reason why the Clan Conference did this, but he had enough reason to decide to change or even overthrow it. The only problem was: in a short period of time, he had only determination and no power to implement it.
Reed also said "the timing is wrong" and explained what the right timing is: First of all, Dagon must be prepared and master the ability to fight clan meetings; in addition, it is to gain widespread support and recognition from the Jiangu people, otherwise he will only be regarded as a madman, a fool, and a destroyer of order. If you want to do the right thing, the most important thing is not to become a bad person.
"We must revive the Jiangu clan again." Dagon had this idea and chose a small goal: to move out the clan meeting and kill the road of development. Whether it is the ideal of the future or the small goal in front of us, it is very difficult. Dagon must prepare himself for this and prepare like-minded people.
"Hehe, can these two things be done in Mianamilis?"
Reed pointed out Dagon's biggest concern incisively, and then said that his focus should be on the middle of the soul and learn the knowledge that even the gods of the ancient Jian clan were very envious. The elves' things are at best just "art", and what he learned will be far more important than "art".
Reed's knowledge is very rich, and it can even be described as bottomless. The part of "arithm" is from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, from simple to complex. Dagon always feels that he has reached the limit of understanding, but new knowledge will pop up later. The most terrifying thing is not the simple knowledge point, but that he can often open up new fields and let Dagon look at the world in a way and perspective that he has never thought of.
In addition to arithmetic, Reed also taught two courses, mainly to allow Dagon to change his mind and adjust the difficulty. The simpler ones are language courses, with elves as the main language and human simplified language as the supplement. These things can be used sooner or later in the elite academy.
Dagon’s favorite lesson is physics, especially stress analysis. Perhaps it is because as a Jiangu people, I feel friendly when I see things like levers, balances, winches, pulleys. These tools are widely used in the daily lives of the Jiangu people, and craftsmen have a complete set of rich and interesting formulas to teach how to make and use them.
Tools are also weapons on the battlefield. Building city walls, fortresses, fortifications, etc. are also skills that weapons masters need to master. Dagon recites these formulas a lot, but today, he has truly learned the rules hidden behind all the rules and the key points behind them.
"How come you have so many things?" Dagon asked the question naturally: "How long have you studied?"
Reed counted with his fingers and said six years, six years, four years, three years, and finally turned his eyes and said, "It's about 30 years for you. Later, I learned some principles of life one after another, which is not the same type as what I teach you now. In the sixty years I have been here, except to observe you, I'm losing my temper with the gods of the Jiangu tribe. I haven't learned anything new, but I forgot some of them. It's quite a loss."
"It only took thirty years? You must be a very smart person."
"No, I'm just an ordinary person. I'm a little smart, but definitely not the smartest one, it's far from it." Reed shook his head and said, "Dagon, the power is in the hands of heroes, and even more in the hands of ordinary people."
Dagon thought of those cut books. There was no content worth cutting in the biography and life records of the elected king. But in some ordinary soldiers, poets, and craftsmen's books, large sections of things have this value. What is this value? It is obviously a force that can enable the Jiangu tribe to develop forward.
"Don't think about being a hero first, being an ordinary person first, and understanding what ordinary people need." Red followed the teachings and said to Dagon: "In the past sixty years, you lived in a closed city of Jian Guren. You didn't understand the living conditions of Jian Guren outside, and you didn't understand the world, but you were not affected by the outside world. Think about those Jian Guren who have been outside, who have the same idea as you?"
"You have an idea now, which is great, but there is a long way to go from idea to realization. If you think you know how to go, then you are wrong. You don't even know how to get from here to elite academy! You understand that fighting alone will not work, then what method should you use to strive for support? You must understand ordinary people and understand what the world outside is like. Remember the experiences and experiences along the way, and experience them more, you are already learning."
Indeed, I have experienced a lot of things along the way and met many people. Dagon has learned a lot. But all this is to go to Semi-Namilis and study in Elite Academy, and his challenge is still ahead.
Because the road was delayed for some time, Dagon finally came to Minamilis from spring to autumn. This country in the north of the elves is the richest and most powerful place in the world. From the twin towers in the west to the Wolf Eye Castle in the east, from the Mingzhu Mountains in the north to the Gai Mo City in the south, it can be said that the most important areas in the world are under the control of Minamilis.
Looking up at the sky, you can see that the air fortress hanging under the huge balloons slowly flying under the propeller, patrolling the sky of the elves. In addition to placing the arrow tower in the air, these flying devices produced by the Pearl Fort can also be equipped with troopers, heavy crossbows or a team of wind horse knights, which are the most important and distinctive combat forces of the elves. The elves claim to be able to use the Air Force to directly obtain the victory of the war, but the Jiangu people retorted: "The Air Force cannot go to the infinite maze located underground."
In addition to the air force protection, the elves' defense on the ground is also quite powerful. From the Wolf Eye Castle, they quickly enter a huge forest. The wide road is surrounded by tall and thick trees. This is a famous "living forest". There are quite a lot of tree people among the trees, and the tree fort and plant puppets. It is difficult for outsiders to see the difference. Invaders will often be smashed directly by branches from unknown places.
"Living Forests" can not only defend, but also attack. They only need water, soil and sunshine to survive. When they advance layer by layer, they are like moving bunkers. Wherever they go, they will become local fortresses and barriers, leaving the elves invincible place. But it is still what the Jiangu people said: "Living Forests cannot go to the infinite maze that is underground without sunshine."
Can you always go to the Elf Card?
The convoy entered the area of Semilis, and the shade formed by the living forests was always accompanied by people. The blue sky, white clouds and green trees, the small animals jumping among the branches and the chirping birds were always filled with a cheerful atmosphere, as if the air here was sweet. Dagon opened the dragon feeling - Oh, "earth hearing" - but he could see something different.
Some trees are alive, they are staring at the convoy; some birds and squirrels are not living creatures, but spies summoned by mana, and they are also staring at the convoy. In fact, it is not just the convoy, they fairly monitor everyone entering the Secret Namilis. When Dagon saw them with his earthly hearing, some guys felt something strange and were alert.
Only the earth's hearing can locate the earth's hearing. Some commotion occurred in the forest. A group of birds screamed and rushed into the sky, with loud leaves roaring. Some people in the caravan thought that large carnivorous beasts were approaching, so they hurriedly posed in a defensive posture. Jeros shouted twice, allowing the convoy to continue to maintain its original speed.
"There are no lions and tigers in the living forest. The biggest carnivore is a fox, so don't be afraid." He said: "After entering the Seminar Namilius, you can only see leopards, teething tigers, etc. They have long been kept in captivity as pets. There are only civilized creatures in the living forest that understand the rules, so don't be surprised."
The Golden Dog Caravan fired some people and recruited some new people, so some of them were indeed the first time to come to Minamilis, and some things should be explained earlier. Geros climbed to the highest point of the truck box and said to these people: "When I arrive in Minamilis, I will be honest. Don't say anything if I can, run away if I can. If I have something to do, come to me to deal with. There are many rules here, and some common sense you think is not universal. For example, walking on the road with a bottle of open wine, you will be arrested."
"So, eat in the place where you eat, walk in the place where you walk, sleep in the place where you sleep, don't do other things! If you want to shit, don't think you can pull it in the place where you don't think there is no one. You have to find a place where they collect shit! Do you understand?"
"Boss! There are so many rules, how can I remember it? Are there any signs, mantras or songs?"
Geros shook his head and said, "Minamilis is divided into about fifty areas. The rules of each area are different. You have to remember that there are probably elves that have a long lifespan. For example, some areas can take weapons, and there can also buy and sell weapons, but you walk into the next area with the things you bought from this street. If it is a person who is not allowed to carry weapons, you are caught again."
"Don't panic after you go quickly. You can usually come out with some money. Remember, contact the caravan when you encounter something. The Chamber of Commerce Alliance has people here who specializes in dealing with such things, which can save you a lot of money and trouble. But even if you save money, five or six gold coins are indispensable. For your wallet, don't do this."
Geros said: "Remember, if you want to leave the caravan, you must tell me or Maip, and you must have a companion who is very familiar with Minamelis around you. Buy and sell things, and go through the Merchant Alliance. If you want to eat, drink or have fun, it is best to only go to the Merchant Alliance registered facilities. There are many entertainment projects that can make money. If you are interested, go find Toby. I won't be publicly yelling about this."
Dagon rolled his eyes. Before Geros mentioned this, Toby had come to him and had already told him secretly. The elves looked arrogant and unfamiliar on the surface, but they played a lot in private. While adhering to the sacred and inviolable monogamy, they tried every means to seize freedom. In Semilius, both men and women, they could find the elves who needed to be served...
Afterwards, Dagon didn't want to hear about the current situation of this industry, so he directly bombed Toby away. Toby shrugged, and the result was expected. Some people in the caravan were very much looking forward to gaining the "identification" and "reward" of the elves, but the Jiangu people did not have this kind of empty atmosphere and habit, they only had the four words "steady".
Toby came to Dagon specifically to tell this, in fact, to remind him to be careful of the elves, especially the beautiful female elves. Yes, what he said was Shiloae Geros and the people who cared about Dagon in the caravan were worried that he would suffer in this regard, but it was hard to say it directly, so as not to activate the "stubborn characteristics" of the Jiangu people, but it would be the opposite.
"There are many good things here in Seonamilis, but don't be damn good at it. And remember one thing: You are not elves, and you don't have the talent for magic. You can't use many things, don't spend money in vain..."
Jeros was still talking outside, while Dagon began to count and pack his luggage in the carriage. The Elite Academy is located in the east of Miamilis, and he would not reach the end of the convoy. Although he had only been together for nine months, he had established deep trust and friendship with some people in the convoy and would remember it all his life.
He originally wanted to leave gifts to a few friends, but he was discovered in the preparation stage. Both Geros and Toby said that this was not needed, but Luciga persuaded Dagon. She said that according to the custom of the convoy, exchanging things means some kind of end, just like the end of a transaction or commission. If you want to remember it, don't give it, and never end it.
So, Dagon and the Golden Dog Caravan tacitly chose to "not end". The auction of Chimera's skin brought more than 4,000 gold coins to the caravan, of which Dagon's dividend was 2,200. He planned to take away 200, and the remaining 2,000 entrusted the Golden Dog Caravan to send to Jian Gucheng to his parents, but Jeros never gave him the two hundred gold coins - this was an unfinished contract.
Dagon did not persist until the caravan arrived at the Elite Academy, leaving a note saying that he would not offer a reward, and then secretly left the convoy on a windy and dark night and walked to complete the last section of the road. He did not fully fulfill his promise, but he did not violate it, which was left to the caravan with an unfinished commission.
Walking along the avenue of the living forest, the night wind blew the leaves, and the rustling never stopped. Without spreading the earth's hearing, Dagon could feel that there were creatures monitoring him. Turning his head, Dagon saw the bright squirrel and the woodpecker with stinged eyebrows and the old-skinned birch tree quickly closed its eyes hidden in the tree lumps.
"What are you afraid of? The underground monsters don't walk from here." Dagon said to the squirrels and woodpeckers: "Are you guarding against the Jiangu people? Or guarding against humans, halflings or half-elves?"
The creatures in the woods did not give him the answer. The squirrels were still gnawing on the pine cones, and the woodpecker smashed the tree. A red-haired fox walked out of the woods leisurely, wandering to the center of the continent, looking at Dagon with a pair of bright orange and yellow eyes.
Dagon thought about it and he didn't lack anything now. Through the caravan, Dagon bought a dwarf helmet produced by the dwarf at the Canine Tooth Fortress. It was fully covered with a neck and shoulder support, and there were almost no gaps except for the eyes. This helmet was originally prepared for heavy dwarf defenders, and it was rarely used by ordinary people, so it was relatively cheap. Dagon relied on his hearing and did not worry that he could hinder his observation and perception.
He also bought new pants, a new jacket and a pair of new rabbit leather gloves, which are very soft, comfortable and durable, and they really don't need fox skin. It is said that fox meat is not delicious, and it has an unbearable smell. Although Dagon doesn't know whether it is true or false, he is not curious/hungry enough to kill foxes and eat meat. It is also said that fox fur can be used as shawls, which is very warm. Unfortunately, Dagon doesn't like such bright red colors, and does not think it will be more practical than the five-headed dragon cloak made of Chimera scales.
"Don't block the way, I'll give you a kick in the way." Dagon whistled and rushed past the fox with big strides, not wanting to pay attention to it at all. Unexpectedly, the fox was quite crazy, and opened his mouth and bit it.
Dagon continued to move forward, the fox's head was embedded in the road, his body was raised, his butt was sticking out, and his head was broken, and there was a shattered hole in the shape of a hunting head and axe tail on its cover.
