Half-elf Ranger

Chapter 188: Meeting in the Falls

"It turned out to be Master Qingchen from Emerald Leisure Court, disrespectful." Thorne looked at the Druid player with short black hair and an extremely ordinary appearance, and said with a slightly respectful expression: "Ranger Thorne, it's nice to meet you. You, too, appreciate the timely reminder in Uptown."

The young man in front of him was one of the two druids he met when he and the sorceress Andrina went to the half-elf chief's courtyard two days ago. druid player.

According to his chat with Carlos, he also let him know that the druid named Qingchen is the disciple of the dead wood master of Twilight Town. The fit of Rui's profession is very high.

Through Master Deadwood's ninety-year-old age, and the calm gaze of the Druid in front of him, Thorne could judge that the other party's true age was at least 50 years old.

Although Master Withered Wood and his disciples were stranded in this other world, their way of inaction never wavered.

When they realized how difficult it is to survive in a civilized settlement in the emerald field, the master and apprentice, who pursued simplicity, frugality, purity and few desires, planned to use their own methods to help the development of the player's civilization.

However, they are facing the extreme faction Druid of Jade Leisure Garden, and the views of master and apprentice have diverged.

Master Deadwood believes that the extreme druid's view that nature is above everything is wrong, so he rejects the invitation of Jade Leisure Garden, and intends to use his own strength to help the civilized settlements gradually establish a people-oriented harmonious society.

His disciples believed that the reason why players' civilization settlements were difficult to develop was that, in addition to the humanoids in the wilderness, the extremist Druids were the stumbling block that hindered the development of civilization. Only when the threat is removed will civilization flourish in the wilderness.

So he gladly accepted the invitation of Jade Leisure Court, joined the Druid Order, and was accepted as an apprentice by a high-level Druid, trying to use his abilities to slowly guide and change their extreme ideas.

No matter who is right or wrong on both sides, Thorne believes that their goals are always the same, and they are all working hard to make the civilization settlements built by players can gain a firm foothold in the emerald field, so they are worthy of respect. Master and apprentice.

Whenever he saw this pair of masters and apprentices, Thorne would always think of those practitioners who went down the mountain in troubled times and returned to seclusion in prosperous times, which was the main reason why he showed respect to them.

"How dare you bear the name of a master, just call my name directly." Qingchen waved his hand and smiled slightly. After hearing Thorne's name, there was a slight fluctuation in his calm eyes, and he said slowly:

"It turns out that you are Thorne. The expulsion war launched by Twilight Town against the gnoll tribe has long been heard in Emerald Xianting. Mr. Thorne's heroic performance is worthy of the title of the stalker of the way of silence."

"Everyone in Twilight Town has proved their courage with their actions. I'm just one of them. Master Qingchen has won the prize." Thorne looked startled, and then said not very concerned.

During Twilight Town's expulsion war against the gnolls, he killed fifteen hill giants and gnoll leaders on the battlefield.

Although this battle did not gain any benefits on the bright side, the hidden effect should be the regional reputation. As time goes by, under the oral narration of the people who participated in this war, the civilization settlements on the Emerald Fields will slow down. Slow to know his contribution in this battle.

He was not surprised that the Druid Order was able to know so quickly, but he was a pragmatic person and didn't care so much about these false names.

As for why the Druid of Jade Garden appeared here, he thought about it for a while and figured out the reason. The Eight Achievements came for the taboo research in Waterfall Town.

Afterwards, someone like Thorne who was not good at speaking had a simple chat with Druid Qingchen, and the two entered the two-story tower together.

The original intention of Pushang Town to build a tower in the lower urban area was to cultivate its own spellcasters in large numbers, so the area is relatively large, more than double the tower in the upper urban area.

Thorne took Druid Qingchen into the first floor of the tower, and led him to the meeting room in Falls Town.

"Crench!"

The blacktop wooden door of the conference room was gently pushed open by Thorne.

In the room, all the core staff of Waterfall Town gathered together, and a dozen people sat around a rectangular conference table made of pure white marble.

The races of the players in the conference room are all dominated by humans, half-elves and elves, and there are no other strange races.

Among them, the number of human players is the largest, accounting for more than half of them. There is only Thorne half-elf, and there are two pure-blooded elves. Since the meeting has not yet started, everyone sits there whispering and whispering from time to time.

The conference table is headed by Carlos, the lord of the west bank of the lower city, and the lord of the east bank, Torvi, who is smoking a pipe, is sitting in the first position to the left of Carlos.

Although there are two lords in the town of Falls, most of the key decisions are made by Carlos.

As another lord Torvi, he only plays the role of cooperation and advice. This is not to say that people on the east coast are weak, but because Torvi knows very well what he is good at and what he is not good at. In the realm, he generally wouldn't interfere in his own way, or else the waterfall town surrounded by foreign enemies would have been turned into a pile of ruins in the intrigue.

When Thorne and Druid Qingchen entered the conference room, the whispering stopped abruptly, and all eyes lingered on the two of them.

No one seemed to be surprised by the arrival of Druid Qingchen, and they obviously knew it for a long time, so when they looked at Master Qingchen, they all had kind eyes.

And Master Qingchen also leaned over slightly with a smile, nodded to the crowd, and then sat in an empty seat that had been prepared under the guidance of Carlos.

As for the arrival of Thorne, the gazes hovering over him became somewhat subtle and inexplicable.

Thorne was not surprised by the attitude of everyone. He walked into the room, nodded slightly to Carlos and Torvey, and walked to the first seat on Carlos' right hand that belonged to him.

There are three forces in Pushang Town, the east and west banks of the lower city and the half-elves in the upper city, and Thorne's identity has always represented the half-elves in the upper city.

When the half-elves in the upper city had not yet reached a stalemate with the lower city, all the important matters that needed to be communicated or negotiated with the half-elves in the upper city were communicated by Thorne. Report to the half-elf leader.

However, the half-elves in Shangcheng District were only responsible for the defense of Pushang Town at the beginning, and they would never take the initiative to participate in the clearing-up battle in the wilderness.

Thorne's role is nothing more than to immediately notify the half-elves in the upper city to go to the city wall to support the defense after discovering the enemy who is about to threaten the safety of Waterfall Town. To deal with these crap.

Now, the half-elves in the upper city have separated from the players in the lower city and have fallen into a stalemate, and Thorne has been away for nearly half a year. The role of the third-party force in the waterfall town is not that important. , is a dispensable existence.

This is why, at the invitation of Carlos, Thorne did not want to participate in the affairs of the lower city, and the reason why everyone looked at him became very subtle.

In the conference room, Thorne and Druid Qingchen were the last ones to arrive, so when everyone was seated, the meeting in the town of Falls was ready to start at the signal of Carlos.

"Before the meeting, I would like to formally introduce the people who have just joined our waterfall town." Carlos got up and looked at Master Qingchen and said, "He is Master Qingchen from Jade Leisure Garden, a 10th-level German Rui, let us welcome the arrival of Master Qingchen."

"Clap clap clap!"

A burst of warm applause echoed in the conference room, and no one would refuse to join a 10th-level Druid who had mastered the 5th-level magic in Waterfall Town.

Even when Thorne looked at Master Qingchen, there was a flash of surprise in his expression. He didn't expect the other party's level to be so high.

The Druid level of his master, Master Deadwood, is only level 8. The level can be improved so quickly. In addition to his own Druid profession, he must have joined the Druid Order of Jade Garden and obtained the There are many benefits that are beneficial to one's own cultivation, Thorne guessed secretly.

The warm applause dissipated, Master Qingchen got up and looked at everyone, and said slowly: "It is my greatest wish in my life to be able to work with friends in Pushang Town and build a harmonious and civilized settlement based on people, but also Yes, I also hope that everyone can face up to the teachings of the God of Nature, treat everything in the wilderness with kindness, and conform to the healthy development of nature.

Today, there is a legendary Druid in the Emerald Wilderness whose philosophy is close to the doctrine of the balance school, which is a blessing for the civilization settlement in the wilderness, and as a Druid in the Emerald Garden, I also want to go to the waterfall for the sake of the town. Protected from the wrath of nature, I hope you will cooperate with my work to find the forbidden research hidden in the town of Falls, and then remove it for good. "

"As for the taboo research in Pushang Town, after confirmation by all of us, this is completely a misunderstanding. When the meeting is over, I will send someone to fully cooperate with Master Qingchen to track down the evil research hidden in Pushang Town and completely resolve this misunderstanding. ." Seeing Master Qingchen taking his seat, Carlos stood up and assured him.

"Then I'll trouble you, Lord Carlos." Master Qingchen nodded slightly, then sat down on the chair and said nothing.
