Green Monster Epic

Chapter 130: Entanglement (This chapter is a transition, not much content, smiley face)

The wind in the wilderness at night takes away the heat of the day, cooling down the world. Before long, the temperature of this land will suddenly drop to ten degrees Celsius, making people even feel a bit chilly.

Walking by the lake, the dim environment does not hinder Allen and Pava O's view of the beautiful scenery. The light from the high-hanging silver moon shines on the earth, allowing the goblins to see as clearly at night as they do during the day.

"There have been some things happening in the tribe recently, and I haven't been able to come and see you. Are you doing well?"

Allen inexplicably said words of concern, which made Pava O a little confused.

"Well, I'm fine, not starving."

This is Pava O's true inner self, which is a compliment to life in Green Field.

"That's good. I won't beat around the bush with you. Have you ever thought about working with me?"

Allen has always been a little worried about Pava O. After all, the other party was once the leader of a tribe, and now his entire tribe has been absorbed by him. Therefore, Allen hesitated in the three choices of absorption, exile, or simply killing Pava O.

That's why Mauro has been ignoring Pava O, allowing Pava O's family to live as prisoners until now.

Now Allen's change of attitude comes from a sense of crisis in his heart. Allen always feels that the old guy, Bone Breaker, has other tricks up his sleeve, and the ogre is also very likely to make a comeback. For the sake of this sense of crisis in his heart, Allen can't care about anything else at this time, hoping that after talking with Pava O tonight, there will be a good result.

"I am now, just, working with you."

Pava O pretended to be confused, replying foolishly.

"…"

"What I mean is, I will give your family freedom and status. Don't think about going out to venture anymore, and settle down in our village in the future."

If it weren't for Pava O and his two sons' combat effectiveness, Allen wouldn't be acting like this.

"Reason?"

Seeing Allen being so direct, Pava O stopped pretending to be stupid, looked into Allen's eyes, and asked solemnly.

"Do you need a reason? I want to develop and strengthen our tribe, and your tribe is weak."

Allen didn't feel any guilt. The law of the wilderness has been like this for so many years, and it has its own reason.

"Besides, now your former tribesmen are eating well and dressing warmly in our village. Isn't it better than staying in your mountain窩窩?"

"Letting a tribe of people live a hard life with you, not knowing where the next meal is coming from, means you are a very poor chieftain. So, it is only natural that I destroy your tribe."

Allen touched on his own pain points. Indeed, compared to the affluence of the Green Field Tribe, Pava O and his people, nestled in a valley, were living a rather miserable life.

"Are you not afraid of me betraying you?"

Pava O still wanted to see what Allen's attitude towards him was. Mauro had been not talking to him, presumably because Allen, the chieftain, had given instructions. Although he had many shortcomings, he had developed some ability to observe people's expressions when he was a leader.

"I believe that as long as our Green Field Tribe is strong enough and has enough food to supply the tribesmen every day, you will not do foolish things."

The surface words were beautiful, but in fact, Allen still had some worries in his heart. It's just that his expression and demeanor at this time couldn't show it at all, but instead, he looked full of confidence.

"Okay, I promise you."

Pava O still noticed the fleeting hesitation in Allen's eyes, but he didn't expose it. He himself had already had the intention of surrendering. He himself didn't care anymore. At the age of 40, he couldn't be considered old among the Great Goblin race. However, if he couldn't advance further, his physical strength and strength would begin to decline. Before long, he would become a burden to the tribe. At that time, he had already prepared to wander the wilderness and leave it to fate.

It's just that these two children beside him, one who had just turned 16 and the other who was 19, were just old enough to mate and reproduce the next generation. If they continued to be treated as inferior prisoners in Green Field, it would be a bit unfair to the children.

"However, I will make things clear first. Your status needs to be earned by yourself. I will also instruct the tribesmen to not treat your children differently."

Allen had been watching the changes in the other party's expression. At this time, he was happy to see the other party agree to surrender, but at the same time, he also saw the helplessness on the other party's face. Thinking about his attitude towards him these days, and the previous act of destroying his tribe, Allen's heart suddenly warmed, and he told him about the tribe's predicament, lest the other party feel that he was deceiving him.

"Our tribe has been in some trouble during this period. Perhaps there will be a lot of fighting with people from other tribes next. If you are unwilling to fight with us, I will also let you go."

"Think carefully tonight, and give me an answer tomorrow, whether to go or stay, okay?"

Allen had a temporary idea. If he forced Pava O and others to stay in the tribe for the sake of a few combat forces, he would still not be at ease. It would be better to say things clearly and let them choose their own path, which would be good for both Green Field and them.

"…"

Pava O was a little confused about Allen's psychology. One moment he wanted him to stay, and the next moment he wanted him to choose. Was this a test or something?

But he carefully looked at Allen's face, and couldn't see any feigned expressions, only full of sincerity. For a moment, he couldn't choose in his heart.

"Okay, tomorrow, I will tell you the answer."

Pava O was also straightforward. He couldn't make a decision for a while, so he might as well take advantage of tonight to calm down and see what the other party's mentality was.

In fact, Allen himself was not clear about his current mood. His heart was full of contradictory and complex thoughts: he wanted Pava O to stay, but at the same time, he was afraid that the other party's intention to stay was unclear; he wanted to be ruthless and kill him, but he felt that it seemed unworthy for such a character to die like this; he hoped that the other party would simply leave, so that he would have less trouble, but he was afraid that he would haunt him after he left.

Alas, perhaps this is what Philip once told him, the responsibility and burden that a chieftain and leader needs to bear.

When the lives of every member of the tribe are entrusted to him, and every decision he makes is related to the safety of the entire tribe, Allen always wants to be able to do his best, consider everything comprehensively, and completely lose the decisiveness and ruthlessness of killing.

(Writing this chapter is really tangled. I have read too many novels, and the protagonists of the novels are decisive in killing from the beginning, as if they choose the right thing in every matter. But in the real world, which successful person has not experienced countless failures and countless wrong decisions. But now the Green Field Tribe is too weak, and I, as the author, dare not easily let the green-skinned tribe fail. This defeat may be the disappearance of the entire tribe, and then the novel will end.

After a while, there was this transitional chapter. Maybe everyone is unhappy to see it, but also understands the feeling of a green-skinned person being a chieftain, walking on thin ice step by step. In the future, with growth, he will become more mature, and his treatment of people and things will be more sophisticated, and his work will return to the demeanor and backbone that a superior should have.)
