From troll tribes to elf empires

Chapter 198 Secret Meeting

Headquarters, Canopy Research Institute.

Nesta and other witch doctors' research on elvenization has reached a critical but dull period. The first tree egg has been enthroned, and the union between the sperm and the egg has been very smooth;

The next step is to wait for it to grow on its own while observing and making adjustments at any time.

Before the first egg is officially ‘harvested’, it is still impossible to know whether the final result will be good or bad;

In order to avoid repeating a large number of possible errors and falling into a 'moral dilemma', the subsequent expansion of the 'Troll Body' experiment can only be temporarily suspended.

Therefore, while waiting, most witch doctors focused their research on the improvement of a series of 'supporting facilities';

For example, the improvement of the ‘egg bank’ and ‘semen bank’ previously targeted, as well as more convenient egg retrieval and sperm retrieval equipment, etc.

The three advanced witch doctors who took the lead finally had some time off and were able to turn their attention to other matters.

It was also under such circumstances that a series of reports on the negotiation stage of the front line after the war was over were sent to Nesta and other witch doctors in batches.

Generally speaking, the report arrived in two stages;

The first part stated the horn-hoofed species' attitude toward negotiations and the expeditionary force's related response;

The second part talks about the surrender of the three clans and their possible secret plots.

Nesta is not very interested in the nonsense in the Toulon tribe. As long as the knowledge inheritance can be guaranteed, the rest will be left to the ruling government and the front line to control themselves.

"What's wrong? If Alanya is in trouble, just tell her and we will lend a helping hand!"

"Let's go back and report to our respective leaders first, and then everyone will send representatives to the expeditionary force command camp to find out what the Troll Commander has to say."

In addition, the parliament also made a statement, saying that it can use its own credibility to make security-related guarantees;

However, this kind of guarantee can only be aimed at the major issue of "the survival of the horn-hoofed species", and its internal political strife is not within the scope of the parliament's commitment.

This is equivalent to saying that from this night on, the expeditionary army handed over almost all of the city's security rights to the horned hoof species;

The representative of the Halima family looked ugly. After hesitating for a while, he responded as if a jar had been broken.

"Will the expeditionary force support the priesthood? After all, they want to learn their structure. The trolls will be happy, right?"

"This seems good. The tribes can unite as one under the leadership of our clans. This is indeed the right path."

"It's the sacrificial group! It's this group of shamans who have their eyes high and have delusional ideas! They are the culprits that caused these tragedies! None of this should have happened!"

All in all, it is hard to say whether the priests who now have the right to speak are heroes, but they do have too many ideas, which are not conducive to peace and long-term stability between the two parties.

"Thank you, Lord Tutun. In fact, the chief shaman came to us before and proposed the idea of ​​dismembering other clans and leaving our family alone to become a royal family and co-ruling the tribe with the shaman council."

After that, the expeditionary force withdrew all patrols in the city on the pretext of "showing sincerity", and only maintained its strength in the gaps cleared by the collapsed city wall.

"What do you mean?" asked a horn-hoofed species who was confused.

An exciting voice announced this, and the person who said this was none other than the Adler's Hornhoof who had had a secret conversation with Big Tusk and the witch doctors the night before.

Those who are opposed are not bystanders, but Tutun Earthshaker who is disguised as "the overall situation is the most important thing".

Just like at this moment, the three members of the alliance, as well as the other clans who are secretly helping each other, are making progressive and paving the way for joint expressions, gradually increasing everyone's acceptance of the radical plan.

Therefore, if the clan alliance is confident enough and its subsequent commitments are indeed fulfilled, then the possibility of the headquarters turning a blind eye to the outcome of its internal struggle is indeed very high.

In other words, if the subversion, politics, etc. that occur within the Toulon Department are in line with the interests of the Black Forest, the Department will not deliberately protect the survival of the existing structure.

Bang!

There was a loud noise, and before the other clans could react to the 'explosive' news, another troll stood up with an angry face and said,

"Indeed. Moreover, these new shamans will no longer have the damn tradition of 'breaking away from the clan'. They will also be members of the clan. The disputes caused by the emergence of the sacrificial corps can be completely eliminated in our generation.

"

"Everyone, the Black Forest Trolls have shown full sincerity for peace. They even withdrew the garrison in the city and returned our clansmen. So, who is blocking the arrival of peace now? Who caused us

The death of our compatriots? Who made innocent people have to die tragically?"

As for whether to personally act as a sword and help the three clan alliance to eliminate the remaining clan forces? That depends on the decision of the ruling government.

After roughly explaining his meaning clearly, and after a general discussion in the parliament, the latest instructions signed as the Rune Parliament were sent to the executive government as soon as possible;

In order to lower the wariness of the clans, the three parties in the alliance have used this positive and negative method to dig holes before, and then successfully deflected the focus of this meeting.

Of course, if the forces that came to power afterwards actually harmed the interests of the Black Forest, it would not be impossible for the headquarters to intervene forcefully under the pretext of bringing order to the chaos.

"I don't think so. Otherwise, the sacrificial corps would be launched now. If they have the support of the expeditionary force, why would they use inducements to divide us?"

‘It’s time for the last strong medicine’, he thought as he secretly winked in a certain direction.

But now, on the one hand, the external crisis has not passed yet;

On the other hand, because of the perennial struggle between clans and priests, a political habit has actually formed in the Toulon tribe.

"Damn it! What on earth do these shamans want to do!"

Among them, the 'Promise of the Council' part was uniformly communicated to both the priests and the clan;

The rest, after making the screening, secretly gave the alliance to the three clans and expressed a vague attitude towards the other clans.

"Resist? Resist what? We have been defeated!"

After Anpai completed all this in a short period of time, except for the missing witch doctors, the rest of the expeditionary force members began to wait in silence.

"But the troll army is right in front of us. At this time, we are turning against the sacrificial group. What can we do to resist the expeditionary force?"

"What? They also made a promise to you! What will we, the Harima family, do?"

"Everyone, I have some news. I hesitated for a long time, but finally I want to confess to you."

After further filling in and improving it at the director's meeting, it was sent to the frontline headquarters as a 'negotiation and disposal policy' that did not involve military arrangements.

To put it bluntly, no matter how much dispute there is between the clan and the sacrificial group, it is still an internal matter within the Toulon tribe.

"The Halima family has also received a royal promise from the chief priest. Who else is there? Tell them all! They are clearly provoking us! Only 'dismemberment' is the most real purpose!"

"However, the sacrificial group is also a part of the tribe. Without the power of the ancestor altar, how should we deal with the trolls? In this case, should we continue to fight among ourselves?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the clans had a clear idea. The sacrificial group planned to completely sweep the clans into the trash can.

Ordinary members may not matter, but senior executives like them may have a fate worse than death.

As a result, these clans who did not know the inside story changed their faces one after another, and the expressions on their faces were extremely ugly.

Not only that, some clan elites and prisoners of the Earthshaker Legion were also secretly released after screening.

As for how long it will take and whether it will be taken back, it all depends on their subsequent actions.

This evasive question, which did not mention the responsibilities of each clan in 'smuggling' at all, seemed very 'awe-inspiring' and greatly catered to the aspirations of the representatives of the clans.

But even so, it could not eliminate all clans' doubts.

"Perhaps the power of the Black Forest Trolls attracted them? The priest group seeks to completely dissolve the clan and establish a real spell caster parliament regime, like the Rune Parliament, Speaker and the like. They may think that as long as it is changed to a giant

With a demon-like governance structure, can the Toulon tribe be as powerful as the Black Forest?"

~~~~

At the expeditionary force camp, the witch doctors and officers received the relevant reply from the headquarters the day after the 'first round of negotiations' ended, and immediately notified all parties in the city of the relevant terms.

"Abuli, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like this?" Tutun asked with concern, and naturally the other clans also turned their attention to him.

"The Black Forest Trolls have responded and expressed their support for the clan. Everyone, the priesthood has been against us for countless years. It is time to completely defeat them."

Night is gradually falling, and what is coming is the last night before the ultimatum expires.

Where will everything go, and what will be the fate of Toulon New Town and the Hornhoofed Species? Whether the final harvest of this battle will be more or less abundant? It all depends on the night that is coming soon.

~~~~~

In the city of New Toulon, the remaining traces of the bloody massacre a day ago still exist; the smell of blood on the streets is secretly dormant like a ferocious beast that chooses people to eat.

Therefore, they actually don't have a strong desire to "turn against each other". They always feel that this time the struggle will still continue under the usual rules of "fighting for the hearts and minds of the people and fighting for the right to speak", and it will be repeated forever.

In this atmosphere, even if the troll army released the city's ban, most of the horned hoof species still chose to hide in their houses and dare not go out.

"I don't agree with this. The sacrificial group is a sacrificial group, and the ancestor altar is the ancestor altar. Before becoming priests, the shamans were also one of us; so even if the sacrificial group no longer exists, the tribe will have new shamans

How can it be said that there is no ancestor altar?"

The original discussion on the 'countermeasures' was, at some point, deflected by the speeches of a few horn-hoofed species. Although a more radical plan did not win everyone's approval, it appeared in this meeting as never before.

Seeing the sky getting darker, Tutun became a little impatient. Once tomorrow comes, these guys will not change their stance, and if the sacrificial group really chooses to compromise in the end, then why should the expeditionary army support him?

?

The person sitting over there was one of the representatives of the other groups who were secretly connected with the three groups. After getting his hint, the horn-hoofed species blinked to show that he understood.

After that, I could see that his face was full of embarrassment, and he seemed to be struggling with something fiercely in his heart.

In the north of the city, underground at the Earthshaker clan's 'headquarters', a secret meeting was held urgently;

"Well, we, the Shafiya family, were also promised royal status."

The existing second and third ‘figures’ of the 17 clans appeared here, representing their respective new leaders, and began to discuss the response plan to the priest group’s plot.

"That's fine."

"Everyone should be careful with what they say. After leaving this room, I won't be able to help you cover the shaman's sight anymore."

"Understood, thank you for the reminder, Lord Tutun."

The representatives stood up to say goodbye, and then returned to their respective clans along several different tunnels to meet new or old clan leaders.
