15. Interlude of the Snake Mayor
The city of Smaop means boundless swamp, which is an extremely beautiful city of Tuyu
She has a very pleasant living climate - cold, humid, and very little sunshine; she has a convenient waterway network - the city is built on the edge of a swamp, with more water than land; she is the largest snake-man city in a radius of hundreds of miles, with many snake-man residents.
She is also the best-rated city in the snake people society! Nearly a thousand snake people come here to travel and settle down every quarter.
However, such a beautiful situation was destroyed by a group of unknown people more than a month ago...
The group of little people, who were only as tall as their waists, crossed the Zdi Mountains (meaning insurmountable) and appeared near the city east of Smaop. The group of little people rudely destroyed a home of the snake man and displaced tens of thousands of snake man... They had retaliated against the group of little people, but the result was extremely miserable...
It can be said that the dozens of days after the appearance of the villain was a dark day that snakes were unwilling to mention.
The only thing that made them feel grateful was that the group of little people was still afraid of their entanglement, left the land they ruled, and took the initiative to go north.
After the confirmation of this news, the Snake Man celebrated for several days. The Snake Man mayor of Smaup generously followed the proposals of several distinguished guests - to rebuild the city and seal the origin of the group of villains.
The snake people immediately took action, but before they succeeded, new bad luck came one after another.
The first person to notice the signs of bad luck was the high priest in the city. One night more than ten days ago, many Yom living in the swamp outside the city suddenly became restless. They turned the swamp upside down and appeared together on the edge of the city.
They twisted and roared irritably, making the high priest finally pay attention to their sorrow.
"Their companions are gone..." The high priest of the snake man is an old female. The scales on his body no longer shine. White spots began to appear on his face - the snake man who was called the death mark and appeared was obviously not long, but his eyes were still working, and his hearing was the same. After listening quietly for a while, the high priest reported to the mayor with certainty: "It was the five Yom in the East hissing. Just now, their connection with their companions was cut off!"
This news shocked the mayor. Although it couldn't be said, it also made a strong prediction. - The city in the east seemed to have encountered an unexpected situation again!
And the fact also seems to be exactly this.
Since that day, it has sent several teams one after another. Those who serve as captains are all famous hunters in this city. Even the members of the team are more powerful than ordinary hunters. The mayor solemnly instructed them, "Be careful, be cautious, don't expose yourself easily, don't conflict at will, and come back immediately if you find anything!"
But that's it, these teams are invisible as soon as they go, just like the teams they sent to follow and follow the small ones... They seem to suddenly disappear in this world!
Because the situation in the East was never clear, the atmosphere of the city gradually became a little weird.
First, there were family members and friends in the East city residents, and they began to unite. They protested like the mayor, asking it to send a large army to check east. For several days, they gathered in front of the mayor's museum. The mayor was so worried that he finally calmed down. There was another strange message in the city: those terrible little men seemed to have been killed again! For a moment, the city became panic, and many residents had plans to migrate west...
It was not until the noble guests showed their power and promised, "We will help you!" that there was a sign of improvement.
But that was just on the surface, in private, the group of guests were also putting pressure on the mayor, "You must figure out the situation over there, don't forget that we still have companions there!"
The mayor of the Snake Man responded, but didn't know what to do. Later, there were a few of the guests who were eager to go east and found out more or less news.
There were three guests who came, and two of them were all hung up when they came back, but they also gained a lot. There were more than a dozen snake people who came back with them.
The guests brought these snake people to the mayor, and the mayor said suddenly, "You are my soldiers!"
The people who survived by chance came to pay a busy salute, and a guest who went to the east explained.
"We found them in the pile of dead people! Because they were too tired, they were exhausted. Now the guys in the city regarded them as dead people and threw them aside, allowing themselves to die!" They laughed again, "Fortunately, they met us, so this thing didn't happen!"
Mayor of the Snake Man hurriedly thanked him, and ordered the servant to prepare food.
Huanfu Piqi asked about the situation.
The snake people answered respectfully, "There are a lot of orcs who are fighting in the east! They found the path that the little ones walked and turned over! They also joined forces with a bunch of strange guys - they have no scales or hairs on them! They defeated us with them!"
Then, a snake man went to tell the story of what happened that night. We already knew all of these, so we won't repeat them.
But to be honest, the mayor did not believe what the Snake Man said. It interrupted the Snake Man and asked, "Yom suddenly fell to the ground with hissing? You more than two thousand people can't beat hundreds of guys? A flame suddenly popped up on the ground? The city suddenly shaking? How is this possible!"
Later, the guests became impatient. The one who led them glared at the mayor fiercely and then asked the snake man, "What you said is true!"
"Yes, yes..." The snake people themselves were a little confused - they became prisoners, and they had discussions afterwards, but no one could understand... At this time, the terrible guest in front of them asked seriously, and they became increasingly unsure, "We all feel this way..."
The mayor's guests looked at each other. Compared to these ignorant snake people, they had guessed the truth.
They communicate in voices that snakes cannot hear.
"It looks like another god has entered here!"
"I have vaguely heard that the mountains are the territory of the Aegean gods.丨
"Where is the dwarf? There are no dwarfs in the Aegean god!"
"It should be an ally..."
"Then how should we do it now?"
Several monsters exchanged quickly and quickly unified their opinions, "It is not realistic for our army to come... We must pass the news back as soon as possible! Moreover, we must also find out the details of the group of people.丨
So, the leading monster asked the snake man again, "How many of those strange people do you think are there? Are they like this?" In his speech, the monster had already used his ability to make a god-controlled army.
But the snake man said it was not... the scene he described also made the monster unable to understand.\'\'
In the end, they just knew that the god was here to look for people, and the monsters estimated that they should be the dwarf that appeared before.
The snake man said in a mess, "We have also heard that those strange guys were going to give Foster City to the orcs to reward the orcs for their merits in leading the way! For this reason, they were still staying there, let us do hard work and fill in many waterways!"
At this point, several snake people were a little dissatisfied. "So convenient water conservancy has ruined them! What's the use of leaving only a few pieces!" Some people also have some knowledge of Foster City, and at this time they are more cozy to report to the mayor, "They seem to know Foster's background, and many secret passages we set up have also been blocked!"
"Hiss.丨_The eldest son didn't care at first, but then he suddenly realized that it shouted to the servants beside him, "Hurry, bring the secret map of that city!"
This map drawn on the tree is one of the mayor's treasures, Foster's large and small waterways, and is drawn on it. This map was drawn by the boy from the Yinlin family who ruled Foster for hundreds of years!
Of course it will be very detailed!
The mayor had a warm discussion with several snake man survivors on this map. He used his scaled hands to pass through each waterway on the map, and the snake man shaking his head and nodding.
"This is gone.丨
“The same goes for this.丨
"I heard from others that this is gone.丨
"This is still there.丨
“…”
After a long time, the snake people finished discussing. The mayor sent the snake people to put away the map, but his expression was a little proud, "Those guys are still too short-sighted! We still have a few secrets to use!"
In other words, the mayor of the Snake Man is still very cautious - the arrival of these distinguished guests has already made him know that some strange guys have some inexplicable abilities, so he respectfully asked the monsters, "I want to use these secret passages to get Foster back from the orcs! I wonder if this method is feasible for you?"
Several monsters started to communicate silently again, and it took a long time to make the modulus answer, "If the strange guys you said are no longer, you may be able to succeed - didn't your people say that they are here to find someone? Then, wait a little longer!"
The Mayor of the Snake Man immediately started to do it with great care. It recruited many Snake Man warriors and did not allow them to move eastward. It just stuck with Foster's must-pass place to move northward, and waited quietly and urgently for the arrival of some good news.
