Merikai Temple.

Wearing a standard ceremonial costume of the Church of the Forest Goddess, the High Priest Lausien stood under the tall and straight golden oak tree, looking at the statue of the forest goddess Melika, and praying devoutly.

"Chaos... is coming, what will happen in the future?" The worried high priest held the unicorn holy emblem and muttered to himself.

The forest goddess Melika is a neutral and kind deity whose church always likes to pay attention to the development of the wilderness civilization.

Therefore, priests, druids and rangers who believe in the goddess of the forest are often the first line of defense against the dangers of wild civilization.

His followers are far more willing to find the balance between the development of civilization and the protection of nature than those believers of the **** of nature and the elves hiding in the forest.

I don't know how long it took.

A priest hesitated for a long time, and finally interrupted Lao Xi'an's contemplation, and said respectfully: "High Priest Lao Xi'an, the violent bear walker of Jade Leisure Court has... been waiting for a long time."

"I see." High Priest Lauthian noticed that the forest goddess had never responded, sighed slightly, and turned away from the golden oak.

...

Passing through the thick bushes, the High Priest Lautian came to a quiet grove.

"What are you doing here?" The high priest looked at the wood elf Druid from the Jade Garden with a cold expression.

"I'm here for balance." Raging Bear Walker met Lauxian's cold gaze and said plausibly, "Heruk Hobgoblin entrenched in Tranquility Forest has seriously threatened the balance of nature."

"Then what do you mean?" High Priest Lauthian responded without any emotion.

"I mean? What I mean is that they must feel the wrath of nature!" said the tyrannical bearwalker: "Drive the Heruk Hobgoblin out of the Tranquil Forest."

"The power of the wrath of nature should not be abused." High Priest Lauthian glanced at the other party with a frown.

"It's impossible for you not to know what happened in the last few days." The bear runner said directly: "Guilun's believers have ignited five forest fires in the Serene Forest. He is destroying the balance of nature and must be affected by severely punished."

"He is guarding the continuation of the wilderness civilization. As a stalker of the silent path, it is his duty to guard the continuation of the wilderness civilization." Archbishop Lausien turned to look at the path of the woods, and said lightly.

"Stalker? I think he is more like an arsonist of the Way of Silence, and his behavior must be severely punished and restrained." The Stormbear Stalker raised his voice and shouted at Lausian's back.

"It's not your turn to point fingers." Hearing the wood elf Druid's mockery, the high priest retorted flatly, and then said with a slightly solemn expression:

"As a hunter with the purest heart of a ranger and a heart of killing, his behavior has been paid attention to by the **** of tracking. The continuation of the wilderness civilization requires this kind of ranger with a heart of killing."

That half-elf ranger was secretly concerned by the gods?

Violent Bear Walker was startled, and immediately regained his calm. If this is the case, the behavior of this ranger is not something he is qualified to interfere with, so he changed the subject and sneered:

"The continuation of the wilderness civilization? The Hulk Hobgoblin has already allied with the kuo-toas and sahuagins of the Shadowmoon Inner Sea, and the lizardmen and bullywugs on the edge of the bottomless swamp are about to join their camp, until the lizardmen's civil strife is quelled. , to meet the entire emerald field is the most fatal blow.

Merciful Archbishop Lausien, when they truly unite, the wild civilization you talk about every day will disappear into ruins forever. "

After the Bear Walker finished speaking, he snorted coldly and turned to leave.

He believes that the pioneers of the wilderness and the Heruk hobgoblins of Silent Forest have all disrupted the balance of nature.

If possible, he is even willing to expel both forces.

In the body of the Hulk Hobgoblin, he saw the miniature of the Black Pearl Forest. If they are allowed to continue to develop, the natural ecology of the Serene Forest will definitely suffer a huge impact.

And those wilderness pioneers worried him even more.

Because he saw the shadow of Winter City in the turbulent year in the behavior of these refugees, and their behavior was too similar to Winter City.

If anyone suspects that they are related to the descendants of the godslayer, he will definitely be the first to stand up and support them.

Unfortunately, the origin of this group of people is like a fog, no matter how he investigates and traces it, he can't find the root cause.

Even if you cast control spells on them and let them speak out, they will be interfered by an unknown mysterious force, resulting in no way of getting any truth.

The multiverse is a universe where miracles can be born anytime, anywhere, and for such bizarre things, any accident is not an accident.

But the Emerald Wilderness must not stage the tragedy of the Black Pearl Forest.

Storm Bear Walker recalled that the three legendary druids finally chose to sacrifice themselves to transform into the soul of nature in order to completely purify the polluted land of the Black Pearl Forest, and endless anger rose in his heart involuntarily.

The tragedy of the Black Pearl Forest must not be repeated in the Emerald Wilderness!

The wood elf druid clenched his hands into fists, took firm steps, and accelerated to leave the Temple of Merikai.

On the other side, with the departure of the Druid, the High Priest Lauthian stood silent for a long time in the quiet forest path.

He also knew very well what happened in the turbulent year in the tome of the temple.

Emerald Garden sacrificed three legendary druids, and Merikai Temple also sacrificed many high-level unicorns.

For the pioneers on the Emerald Field, he also saw that these people behaved similarly to the former Winter City forces, but this did not mean that they would definitely bring devastating disasters to the Emerald Field.

Because he has seen many **** warriors in the first line of defense in Fallstown, and saw the ranger named Thorne often wandering in the wilderness, hunting down every enemy who tried to threaten civilization, and saw his ranger Heart of Heart and Heart of Killing are recognized by the tracking god.

He saw a silent oath made by a priest named Sting after losing his lover in the Temple of Merika, dedicating his voice and faith to the forest goddess.

He also saw a bard with a very detached character, whose beautiful harp often sounded poems of nostalgia, longing, hope and dawn.

He even saw kobolds and goblins in the town of Horn, and trolls and ogres were brothers.

...

Nature is balanced.

The beasts and monsters of the Emerald Fields are part of nature, and so are these pioneers.

What they need to do is to find a new balance between civilization and nature, instead of sticking to the way of nature and always using violence to solve problems.

Even if these people are related to the descendants of the god-killers of the troubled year, what does it matter?

He only believed in his own eyes and in everything he saw.

High Priest Lautian sighed heavily, turned and walked towards the depths of the temple.

In the Temple of Melika, boundless flowers and green grass grow on the flat ground and on the hillside, as well as tall and straight oak trees. A large number of small animals roll and stroll on the grass, and the air is filled with a faint scent of flowers and grass. .

The bright sunlight slanted down from the gap between the white clouds and shone on the tallest golden oak tree in the center of the temple. It looked strange and holy, like a miracle descending from the clouds.

…………

The Forest of Tranquility, in the camp of the Hobgoblin Legion.

Surrounded by a group of guards, the supreme leader of the Heruk hobgoblin group strolled through the smoke-filled camp, looking at the dead hobgoblin warriors, his dark brown hairy face under the bright sunlight, but Appears darker.

At this time, on a piece of ground infiltrated with blood, the hobgoblin leader found a pattern of five-star paw prints again.

This is a beast's claw. There is a five-pointed star in the center of the beast's claw. The pattern engraved by the sword tip looks rough, but every time the hobgoblin leader looks at the twisted scratches, he seems to see a picture full of A mocking smiley.

"Stalker of the Way of Silence!" The hobgoblin leader's boots made a heavy sound, and along with his roaring gnashing teeth, the five-star paw print pattern was stomped under his feet by the pure metal boots.

Then, in the rotation of the toes of the hobgoblin leader, it disappeared without a trace, and finally turned into an inconspicuous little dirt pit, and the owner of the metal boots left as if to relieve his hatred.

"Sword wound with flames." The Hobgoblin leader walked over to the corpse of a Hobgoblin warrior, looked at the burning injury left on the wound after the heart was pierced, and whispered.

"Arc and Fire." The Hobgoblin leader walked over to another corpse with an arrow in the neck, and the dark brown hair-covered face began to darken.

"It turned out to be an abyss demon." Then, the Hobgoblin leader walked to a corpse that was bitten into blood and muttered to himself.

Immediately afterwards, he looked around the camp that was filled with gunpowder smoke, and after a long silence, he said, "Go to the Temple of the Almighty."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards the depths of the Forest of Tranquility surrounded by a group of guards.

This ranger from Fallsville not only cleaned up all the assassins he dispatched on the outskirts of Falls, but is now starting to make trouble in the Silent Forest.

five consecutive days.

Almost all of the camps outside Tranquility Forest were disturbed by this hateful ranger, and the recent losses of the entire Heruk hobgoblin group have exceeded the battle losses of the Bottomless Swamp.

In this way, the war in the Emerald Wilderness was dragged down by this ranger before it even started.

Therefore, he must go to the Temple of the Almighty and ask the high-level priests to help, because he really has nothing to do with this flexible ranger.

...

Magrubier the Mighty is the guardian of goblinoids, his idol is a terrifying tall goblin with sharp fangs, ebony skin, strong muscles and eyes full of flames, holding a decapitation Blood Axe.

As a goblin-like patron, he always expects to see his people wage war after war for glory, and then destroy all surface races.

"Greetings to you, esteemed Hobgoblin leader of Heruk." The moment the hobgoblin leader stepped into the temple, a hoarse voice floated over first.

Immediately afterwards, a hobgoblin figure whose whole body was shrouded in black robes greeted him.

The shadow walked in front of the Hobgoblin leader, still maintaining a pious attitude towards the statue of the Almighty, then stretched out his arms, bent his elbows, put his palms on his chest, and saluted the leader slightly.

"Respected High Priest, the tribe needs your help." Facing the shadow's respect, the Hobgoblin leader didn't dare to show any slights in his expression.

Although the high priest is an outsider who joined the tribe in the Black Pearl Forest two years ago, his ability and devout belief have been recognized by the Mighty One, and he has become his chosen one, who controls the land of Heruk. All the rituals of the elite.

"If he had followed his advice, the entire Hulk Hobgoblin wouldn't be so embarrassed." The Hobgoblin leader looked at the shadow with a complicated expression, and felt a little regret in his heart.

"Three ways, one condition." Sombra's voice was low and hoarse.

"Let's talk about the solution first." The Hobgoblin leader thought for a while and said slowly.

"Wake up the sleeping one..." Before the black shadow could finish speaking, he was directly interrupted by the Hobgoblin leader.

"This method is inappropriate." The Hobgoblin leader's expression changed and he directly refused.

"The believers of Mara." Sombra said the second way again.

"The people of black blood are very unreliable." The Hobgoblin leader denied it again.

"The last way is to dispatch high-level priests and temple hunters from the Temple of the Almighty." The shadow was silent for a while, and there was a little joy in his hoarse voice.

"Speak your terms, High Priest." The Hobgoblin leader had no choice.

Although both sides belonged to the Heruk Hobgoblin race, the presence of the Almighty Chosen did not bring him any benefit.

Because the other party seized the entire ethnic group's sacrificial group in the name of the voters, so he could not mobilize this power easily, otherwise how could he be afraid of a ranger, a small waterfall on the town.

"Tinder plan." Sombra slowly spit out his conditions.

"I will arrange it for you." The leader of the hobgoblin who had been silent for a long time nodded in agreement.

The so-called 'fire plan' is that the voters of the Almighty lead some of the tribes to migrate to other places, so as to avoid the annihilation of the Heruk Hobgoblin tribe.

But for the good situation at hand, the Hobgoblin leader believes that this plan of the other party belongs to the evasion of the cowardly.

He didn't understand this very much, whether it was the oracle of the Almighty, or the elector's own intention.

"His Excellency High Priest, do you have any good suggestions for the current situation?" After thinking about it, the leader of the goblin asked Sombra for advice.

"Integrate the power of the Bottomless Swamp and the Shadowmoon Inner Sea, and develop steadily. The gnolls of the Great Sword Mark Mountains will help us bring down the civilization of the Emerald Field." Heiying said directly without hesitation.

"Thank you." The Hobgoblin leader leaned over and saluted, turned and left.

"Walk slowly." The shadow stretched out his arms, bent his elbows, put his palms on his chest, and bowed slightly to the departing Hobgoblin leader.
