From troll tribes to elf empires

Chapter 293 Persuasion and space?

In the northern part of the continent, in a swamp filled with miasma and poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, there is a camp that is not too large. In the simple but relatively clean environment, there is a semi-snake-shaped creature living.

Below their abdomen is a long snake body, and above the abdomen is an elf-like body with fine scales. These scales cover almost 95% of the body surface, and only the head above the lower jaw is exposed with fair skin.

Judging from the current state in the camp, this creature with four arms and no legs, showing extraordinary agility in its movements, is undoubtedly a civilized and intelligent race;

Looking at the size of the community, we can also see that its number is about four hundred.

This is the 'Snake Spirit Clan', one of the second-class races in the Northern Continent. At its peak, it once had millions of compatriots and tens of millions of affiliated races. It was located on the west side of the continent, adjacent to the Rhine tribes.

The place controlled a large and fertile territory.

In the past, the Snake Spirit Tribe was famous for its extremely active ancestor altars, powerful shamans with powerful attacks, multi-armed warriors with both agility and strength, and weird poison-quenching weapons;

But since the Altar of the Ancestors fell into silence hundreds of years ago, they have quickly fallen into the flames of war for many years due to the suppression of other powerful tribes led by the Rhine tribes, and even the backlash of subordinate races.

It's hard for two fists to defeat four hands, let alone one who has lost his shelter?

Nearly two hundred years ago, continuous failures made the decline irreversible, and the Snake Spirit Tribe faced the final choice of 'slave or die, and must give up sacrifice'.

So, when the Snake Spirit King and the royal family were about to be completely defeated, they led the tribe to flee.

In the nearly two hundred years since then, this population has been wandering in various remote and dangerous environments on the continent, struggling to survive. Due to hunting and the pressure of the natural environment, it has become more and more scattered, and the population size has become larger and larger.

Come less and less.

To this day, the total population is less than 300,000, and the royal family among them is gradually withering away in the endless pursuit;

The past experience of being supported by tens of millions of subordinate races not only brought them an extremely glorious and glorious past, but also the beginning of the race's peak history, which also prevented "farming" from becoming a deep-rooted memory in their bones.

As a result, they suffered from the pain of not being able to produce, and almost from scratch began to explore other ways to fill their stomachs besides hunting;

The process is filled with bitterness, and the entire ethnic group is on the verge of unstoppable destruction.

And this settlement hidden deep in the swamp is one of the escaped branches of the once prosperous Snake Spirit Clan, and its living conditions are also the best portrayal of the entire tribe today.

The strong poison resistance has become the basis for the life of the people living here, and the wild fruits and some ordinary creatures in the swamp have become the sustenance they need to survive;

But the reason why the swamp is inaccessible is not only because of the natural poisonous gas here, but also because of the population of monsters living in it. This is also one of the biggest difficulties that the settlement faces today;

But think about the current situation of the Snake Spirit Tribe

She understood that she actually had no choice, and there was an intuition of "the other party is trustworthy" working deep in her heart, so she said after a moment of silence,

"Can I see your promise? This strange strong man, I want to see if the 'beauty' you mentioned exists, and if your ethnic group is as worthy of shelter as you said."

After reading what he had accumulated, the leader inadvertently picked up the fruit on the side and took a bite. When he found out what he had eaten, he was just stunned for a moment, and then relied on his strong poison resistance to eat it whole.

She vigilantly explored it, and after finding it was no problem, she planted it in the tent, so there was an extra plant in the house.

"Isn't the promise we gave you rich? A powerful but trouble-free suzerain, a territory with ample supplies, a city-state with autonomy, a stable and non-oppressive environment, don't you think you've had enough of your current miserable situation?

What?"

And that very night, a hypersonic transport spacecraft set off from its headquarters and landed on five integrated motherships 'parked' in the air. After replenishing nutrients, it arrived at the swamp in a very short time.

The nearest mainland base station.

The silence lasted for a few seconds. Just when the leader thought that the conversation was going to end at this point, it made a sound again,

"Madam, you are a descendant of the king. Through you, you can better win the trust of the other scattered tribes of the Snake Spirit Clan, and the promises we have made before will never change due to the attitudes of the tribes; even if we are not united in the end,

If it succeeds, you and the people in your settlement can still live a stable life."

'This is definitely not a creature'

The huge female snake spirit's lower body snakes along the ground, and its upper body also swings left and right, roaming from a distance at a speed that seems slow but actually fast;

As an excellent intelligence officer, there is no conflict between appreciating beauty and performing tasks, as this elf did at this time.

It seems to be a bird? But it seems to be a plant?

In short, it was a strange creature with a dark green body and a distinct metallic color. It was spitting out almost purple fireworks downwards and slowly falling in silence.

The figure said "offense" and then hugged her body. Even though the other party instinctively wrapped its long tail around her waist, it still started the engine and took off without hesitation.

On the parliament side, the witch doctors seemed to attach great importance to the beautiful snake spirit 'in front of them' for other reasons;

Azra was also surprised by many things, such as 'How come anyone can speak Snake Language', 'What kind of species is this?' and so on.

But after all, she was also the leader of the settlement. At this time, she still managed to suppress all kinds of thoughts in her heart, and after returning the gift, she sat down in a row under the guidance of the other party.

The voice expressed the language of the snake spirit, and it indeed came from the tree in front of him. The leader, who was already accustomed to this, did not struggle with it, but responded with a slightly hoarse voice amid movement and hesitation,

"I have to think about it again"

And not long after.

"Leader Azra, please go to the five thousand 'Snake Spirit Rice' north of the settlement and wait. We are about to pick you up."

She knew that this request was likely to be approved quickly, and it was not for the reasons she had mentioned before. After all, it was just the Intelligence Ministry's own plan;

The long-standing pursuer of the Snake Spirit Tribe was the first option that came to mind when I saw the 'giant bird' not long ago, but it was quickly rejected because all the characteristics were inconsistent;

But before she could think of the next answer in her wild thoughts, the other party had already moved closer, squatted on one knee and said,

"Please let me take you up. The Snake Spirit Clan can't fly, right?"

"Photosynthetic panel inspection completed!"

When she got close, she took the fruit raised by the warrior and looked at it in front of her eyes. Inexplicably, a "delicious" feeling came to her heart, and then disappeared naturally, just like the ups and downs.

Like other thoughts.

Inside the tent, she picked up the fruit and looked up and down, sniffed it unconsciously, even licked it, and then put it aside, preparing to finish the affairs of the camp first.

Although the settlement is small, there are indeed many problems, such as hatching eggs, feeding, food, health, etc. Although she does not need to do it personally, she still needs to pay attention at all times.

"You can think about it again, but how long can your compatriots sustain it? They have to survive day and night in a remote area. If one person dies today and two people die tomorrow, how long can they survive?"

The voice was clear and melodious, but Azra could not judge the gender of the opponent from it. After all, there were many races in the Northern Continent in which the females were deep and the males were clear;

"Okay."

"We don't need slaves, we just want to give the weak people who are struggling to survive a way to survive, and the two mammoth kings are not so kind."

Afterwards, the imaginary "thud" sound was not heard, because when the figure was about to land, a strong air flow was ejected from the figure's feet, allowing it to land steadily in the buffer.

He soothed their tired bodies and minds with a hoarse voice, then lifted up the leather tent with all four arms and ducked into the residence.

"Please don't use empty reasons to excuse me. In the more than a hundred years I have lived, the sufferings suffered by the Snake Spirit Clan prove that there is no such thing as kindness between groups in this world."

"Maybe I'm overthinking it? It's just because there were too few fifth-level witch doctors in the past? Forget it, let's wait for the reply from above~"

"I understand, I will go there by myself."

The wonderful touch of the combination of metal and plants came from the surface of the body. Azra, who was extremely sensitive to temperature, sensed the disharmony of this body, and instinctively sensed that the other party's real body should be located further inside;

But she didn't ask any more questions, she just relaxed her tail that was exerting force before, and then let it do whatever it wanted in silence. Anyway, she would die if she died, and the settlement wouldn't be worse anyway, so let's take one step at a time;

The four footed creatures stood up and saluted, and among the big guys who brought her up, a similar creature also stepped out, and he was nodding to himself at this time.

This is a very strange forest. There are no monsters or poisonous gases in it, and fruits are produced all year round regardless of the season.

Fifty years ago, the scene where my mother was bitten off the waist by a beast that fell from the sky was repeated again and again;

Immediately, a vague feeling of weightlessness was transmitted inside, followed by a violent push on the back. This also made Azra realize that they were flying, and in a way that even exceeded her knowledge.

The speed is galloping.

Later, the camp was attacked by a herd of beasts, and the tribe suffered heavy casualties. They left behind the food they had worked so hard to grow and began to migrate.

"Ma'am, welcome."

Afterwards, several soldiers rested here for a while, and then set off again to rush to the camp. The journey during this period would still take some time.

"I said, give to the weak."

Just like she chose to 'plant it in the tent', this is indeed a strange plant because it can talk;

Just like now, it 'speaks' again

"How about it? Have you thought about it?"

"But why are you helping us for nothing? What do you want?"

"The inspection of the liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen conversion chamber is completed!"

And the current situation of extreme shortage of metal weapons has magnified its harm countless times.

In the past, there used to be a "sentinel" unit that lived in groups of monsters. They tracked the warriors who returned from hunting and found the settlement. After a few nights, a "tide of beasts" formed, causing them to lose nearly half of their compatriots;

Afterwards, the Snake Spirit branch gave up the food they finally planted and chose to migrate again in desperation.

~~~~~~~~

More than ten kilometers away from the settlement, a group of snake spirit warriors, all holding bone-wood spears in all four arms, were returning to the camp with several prey on their backs. No one said anything along the way, either because they could not but because they did not dare;

At this moment, a huge winged 'creature' appeared quite suddenly in the distant sky;

The powerful gastric acid failed to form an obstacle, and the organs with clear walls failed to obstruct it. They entered the blood vessels, deceived the immune system, and then killed all the way to the spinal cord and brain, and merged with each other to form complex and invisible lines.

.

Instinctively lowering his voice, a soldier called his companions to see a unique fruit and asked what to do with it.

Azra was convinced that there should be something there that was spitting out extreme heat, but what he saw was still the same darkness.

She cautiously retreated for more than ten steps, and even made plans to turn around and run away. However, such a coincidental time and such a coincidental location made her hesitate, and she did not choose to flee regardless of the situation at the moment.

But from his tone, he could feel the similarity with his interlocutor for more than a month.

~~~~~~~~~

When Azra took the elf spaceship and embarked on a mysterious journey, in the black forest in the far south, the witch doctors also embarked on an even more mysterious and great attempt.

Two years after the breakthrough of Jangya and Coarse Tooth, there were 17 more fifth-level witch doctors in the Black Forest. At this time, a total of 21 fifth-level witch doctors were gathering in a large square inside the headquarters to prepare something.

On the way back, they habitually passed through a lush forest that was rare in the swamp, and as always began to look for fruits in it.

Her eyes looked at the light curtain again, scanning over and over again from tail to head, and murmured in her mouth,

"But it's okay if I don't go. Once I go, you can't help but disagree. If it develops into a strangulation mission, I will definitely have to participate~"

Azra fell into hesitation. The promise given by the other party was too good and the requirements were too few. Although this made her heartbeat, it also made her suspicious;

"The injection of advanced cell fluid is completed!"

And inside the hollow cube in front of her, there was a sleeping snake spirit with a painful face.

That is Azra, the leader of the settlement. As a rare royal descendant nowadays, she has a very large body in the settlement and even the entire snake spirit group. Her snake tail is more than six meters long, and her elf-like upper body is also about 30 meters tall.

1.2 meters;

However, although the body is large, the proportions are extremely harmonious. Not only does Azra's face be extremely beautiful, but his upper body is well-toned and coordinated, and even the big black tail of his lower body has a curious sense of beauty.

There was a little bit of exhaustion and relief on their faces, but more of it was a deep vigilance. They kept spitting out the long tongues with forks at the front. In the poisonous mist with extremely low visibility and extremely complex smell, they replaced

The other senses are constantly collecting information.

The leader didn't pay attention to this inconspicuous strangeness, he just nodded to the soldiers and said,

"Solid nutrient reserve injection completed!"

Just as she sighed silently, there was an elf warrior in the forest in the distance who put away the control device in his hand and said with the same emotion,

"The fifth-level witch doctor's cell weapon is really easy to use~"

This can be known from the 'Fifth Level Cell Fruit' alone. After all, the recruitment mission has been going on for such a long time, but I have never heard of such a force being used against any tribe.

Of course, as a settlement that just migrated here a few years ago, what the Snake Spirit Tribe branch doesn’t know is that the ‘age’ of this forest is actually no longer than theirs.

"Hiss~ Brothers, come and see this!"

Two 'Snake Spirit Hours' later, the warriors returned successfully. They handed over the prey and ordinary fruits to the warehouse, and found the leader with the special fruit that was half the size of a head.

"Chief! Look what we found!"

After the call ended, Azra handed over the settlement and more other things to the successor he had trained. Then, under the puzzled and worried eyes of the other compatriots, while holding an almost fatal determination, he continued

Set off with full hope.

~~~~~~~~

Since the other party only gave a very wide waiting area, Azra, who arrived alone, always paid attention to the movements around him. In a mood that was both worried about missing out and lucky, he kept looking around and sniffing.

"The first level ejection procedure is fine!"

The snake spirit, who seemed to be the leader of the group, made this judgment and carefully put it into his arms as if he was afraid of breaking it.

"But how can I trust the faceless 'you'? I still don't even know who I am talking to."

The leader rubbed his face in distress. For some reason, he kept having such sad dreams recently.

'well'

“It’s delicious, but there don’t seem to be any seeds? What a pity.”

And at the bottom of the dense forest that she was familiar with, the elf warrior from before also rubbed his eyes and happily sent to the top to ask for instructions.

~~~~~~

Three months later, Azra stared at a small tree in front of him with a complex gaze that was suspicious and wary, mixed with a little hope;

More than a month ago, the warriors who went out for hunting brought back a strange seed with a diameter of thirty centimeters and sent it to her again for confirmation.

Just when Azra was slightly panicked and still hopeful, the giant bird hovered at a height of about a hundred meters above the ground, and then its abdominal cavity was opened, revealing a seven-meter-tall strong figure that looked like a laid egg.

He jumped out and fell to the ground.

"Feel free to have less than thirty people, but all the guards brought to the scene must be with us."

Taken together, this is a beautiful creature that definitely conforms to the elf aesthetics.

"The tenth dream in two months, the next five should almost form a deep suggestion."

"The second-level ejection procedure is fine!"

And just as her mind was restless, she didn't know how long or short time had passed. Suddenly she raised her head in doubt and looked at the seemingly empty sky in the dark night.

Maybe she can also find a reliable protective force for the tribe

~~~~~~

It didn't take long to get airborne. In the blink of an eye, they had reached the belly of the 'strange bird' and got in through the open square mouth.

Such an idea had been formed before entering, and after truly seeing the space inside that was incompatible with the outside world, Azra was finally convinced of this feeling.

Both the inside and outside are the same metallic dark green, and apart from some unknown fine lines, there are no dazzling decorations at all, but there is still a real sense of wisdom and order that she can't explain.

"Am I on my own? Or am I allowed to bring a guard?" The leader of the snake spirit asked the little tree with half-belief and hesitation.

The identity was confirmed through this, even though there were still a lot of ambiguities, Azra had calmed down in a sense of 'trust';

So, she saluted with the etiquette of her tribe, then looked at the other party's strong body, and then looked at her own body, which was long and big enough, but still slender in comparison, and then nodded and replied,

"Thank you. Sorry for the trouble."

"We already know the appeal, please wait a moment."

Azra sat cross-legged with his snake's tail in his arms, with his head raised and eyes closed, waiting in anticipation and uneasiness.

"Hiss~ Take it back and show it to the leader. It's so big and watery. It would be great if it could be planted in the camp."

"The Snake Spirits don't want to be slaves or vassals that take orders from other people, otherwise they would have chosen to take refuge in the Mammoth Kings."

It was not until this moment that Azra saw and accurately judged the size of the person at a relatively suitable distance.

'Core Rhine and Bestiality Rhine?'

"Thank you for your hard work, go down and have a good rest."

It was already dark, and the leader went out to check on the night watch and other matters, and then returned to his tent and fell asleep;

During sleep, everything seems to happen, and it seems like nothing happens. Some special cells start to act from the stomach.

"Multi-pass engine unit inspection completed!"

At the center, the body of the 'Nessarata' is connected to complex pipelines. It continuously absorbs nutrients transported from its interior, as well as hot liquid metal. The mimic body is also in the process.

It grew larger, gradually became thinner and longer, and finally transformed into the shape of an extra-long rocket.

However, the point is not yet about this mysterious cavity and its body in the outside world.

On the left and right sides, four purple intelligent creatures were sitting upright, as well as the two living beings in another 'room' in front of them, plus the one who brought him up, there were seven in total.

The living body has attracted more of her energy now.

The end of the long tail swayed slightly nervously. Azra, who had been put down, felt at a loss because of all this that was beyond his understanding.

~~~~~~

A very clichéd story, the story of a last princess who fled with her people and eventually died trying to ‘protect’

The leader of the camp woke up from the nightmare, and she dreamed of her mother again;

In the dream, my mother told herself about the wonderful life in the past, the glory and splendor of the past;

"Return capsule inspection completed!"

"The cabin is fine!"

The detailed inspection was completed by three parties, namely Nesta himself, the remaining 19 fifth-level witch doctors, and the No. 1 Center.

"Lieyangxun, Speaker of the Assembly, are you really no longer considering it? Even if you try, it should be up to us to explore the way?"

"Haha, I have selfish motives. How can I not leave my name first for such a thing?"

This confident reply came from the consciousness of Nesta, who controlled the body. After overcoming the dissuasion of the other witch doctors, he began to prepare for the fire.

Not long after, intense flames emitted from the tail of the Nessaratha, and under the thrust brought by the flames, it gradually broke away from the ground and flew straight up faster and faster.
