Green Monster Epic
#611 - Greed and Tolerance
"Someone's coming!!!"
Inside the secret chamber, aside from the large pile of gold coins that hadn't been collected, all the remaining items of value had been completely divided between Allen and Figglas.
Just as Figglas was about to discuss the distribution of the gold coins with Allen, Allen, who had been using his mental power to monitor the passage they had come through, immediately issued a warning, and the two of them rushed out of the secret chamber almost simultaneously.
The reason was simple: the priceless giant statue outside the secret chamber hadn't been taken away yet. If someone else were to benefit from it, not to mention the treasure-loving dragon, even Allen himself would feel heartache and resentment!
They ran headfirst into Kozmo and the three members of Arier's group who were rushing around the corner. When the three saw the complete giant statue in front of them, as well as the damaged secret chamber door behind the statue, their eyes lit up, and the gazes they cast on Allen and Figglas changed slightly.
"Chief Allen, you guys have good luck! You actually found such a hidden place. It seems like you've gained a lot!!"
After seeing the gold-refined giant statue, Arier's eyes never left it, as if he wanted to glue it to himself and take it away.
The previous battle had made him understand how strong the giant statue was. At the same time, because the three of them had fought so hard, they ultimately failed to keep a complete giant statue. In the end, they had almost completely dismantled its limbs before ending the battle.
Now, with such an intact giant statue in front of them, although there was a large hole in its abdomen, Arier believed that if he could take it out, it would definitely become a great asset to the tribe.
In fact, not only Arier understood this point, but Kozmo and Zorf also thought of it. Their eyes were more or less greedily fixed on the giant statue. Kozmo was better; at most, he coveted the value of the giant statue itself, but he wasn't very interested in the combat assistance brought by the complete giant statue's strength.
After all, he was no longer a tribal leader, and he didn't need to worry about protecting the tribe. On the other hand, the giant statue needed to consume a lot of resources during combat, which ordinary people couldn't afford.
Figglas shifted his position, just blocking Arier's eyes that were staring at the giant statue, and chuckled, "What's wrong, envious?"
"Yes, very envious!!"
Arier's skin was also very thick, and he nodded in acknowledgment, "Is there a lot of stuff inside? Do you need our help??"
"No need. You guys staying far away from us is the greatest help to us. Otherwise, I don't know when I'll be unable to resist taking action and twisting your heads off your necks."
Figglas said the words, his tone fierce and direct. Allen just stood calmly in front of the three with Bone Cleaver in tow. The invisible pressure slowly settled in the hearts of the three. Allen, the number one person in the Northern Territory, who had verified his strength through repeated battles and the lives of several legendary experts, made the three legendary figures in front of him feel very apprehensive even without taking action.
However, in the face of great benefits, the three powerhouses who had a numerical advantage would not obediently leave just because of a word from Figglas. Even Zorf, who had been somewhat hesitant before, showed no sign of backing down after seeing the giant statue.
"Heh heh heh, this road isn't yours, and neither is the stuff in that secret chamber. Since you lizard can go in and scavenge, why can't we?"
Kozmo said with a contemptuous look.
"Damn it! I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and brought you guys in!"
Figglas was furious, and a faint sulfurous smoke came out of his mouth. The words of these so-called powerhouses were like farts, without any intention of being followed.
"Okay, we'll give you the secret chamber inside. Are you satisfied??"
Allen wasn't trying to appease them, but most of the things inside were worthless. As for the remaining pile of gold coins, Allen's dimensional bag didn't have enough space to hold them. As for Figglas, he had already filled his dimensional equipment with a lot of gold coins when he was rolling around on the mountain of gold coins earlier, and the remaining ones that didn't fit were probably because his dimensional bag didn't have enough space.
"...En??"
"...Allen!!"
Not only Kozmo and the others were surprised, but even Figglas was a little astonished. This was completely unlike Allen's usual personality!!
Figglas had never seen Allen so easy to talk to. If it were someone else, Figglas would definitely think this guy was an easy target.
"Chief Allen, you're really generous. Then we won't be polite!!"
Arier smiled and started walking. When he passed the gold-refined giant statue behind Allen, he couldn't help but touch the statue.
Before his withered and rough hand could touch the giant statue, a burst of killing intent came from behind him. Arier quickly leaped forward, and turned around in mid-air, just in time to see the gleaming Bone Cleaver leaving a deep sword mark on the ground.
"If you dare to touch this giant statue, don't blame me for turning hostile!"
Allen's faint voice came over at this time. Although his tone was flat, the killing intent contained within penetrated the hearts of Arier and the other two.
"Humph!"
Kozmo raised his head and slowly passed by Allen and the others. Afterwards, Zorf gave Allen a slight wry smile apologetically before walking inside.
Figglas kept rubbing his big hands, his eyes staring at the three figures emitting fire, and he even had a few complaints about Allen.
"There's nothing good inside anyway, why bother? Instead, we need to discuss how to distribute this giant statue in front of us!!"
Allen comforted Figglas and pointed to the trouble in front of them, saying, "Can your dimensional equipment hold this giant statue?"
"No!!!"
Figglas turned his head to the side and roared in a stiff tone. He wouldn't forgive Allen just because of these few words.
"Alas, I was still saying that after we get out, I'll reward someone and personally cook him delicious food for a few days, but it seems like this person doesn't appreciate it!!"
The longer Allen spent time with Figglas, the more he liked this young dragon. Although this dragon was somewhat cunning and greedy, at least he had his own bottom line, which was a quality rarely possessed by the many legendary experts Allen had come into contact with.
"Humph!! One month!!"
Figglas was aggressive, and the head of the goblin-like dragon didn't even turn around as he bargained with Allen.
"Ten days!!"
"Twenty days!!"
"Half a month!!"
"Deal!!"
When Allen said the word "deal", Figglas turned his head, his face full of smiles, with no trace of anger.
"I need to free up some things, you have to help me keep them!!"
As a dragon who can carry all his belongings with him, they have their own unique dimensional space spells and equipment, which are at least much larger than the dimensional bags made by Allen and others using precious space attribute materials.
However, these are all closely guarded secrets of the dragon race. At the same time, they are also closely related to their identity as magical beasts, and ordinary powerhouses cannot achieve this.
The limitations of dimensional equipment are actually quite significant. For example, during long-distance, cross-dimensional precision teleportation, it cannot be carried on the body. Interference between spatial attributes during such cross-dimensional teleportation can lead to drastically different outcomes, and may even cause the teleportation to fail, resulting in banishment to the void.
Moreover, carrying too many dimensional equipment on the same person can also cause conflicts. Excessive spatial magic forming entanglements can trigger the repair function of the plane's spatial laws, thereby erasing the artificially created dimensional space.
After all, spatial law is one of the foundations of a powerful and stable plane, constantly repairing spatial cracks and bugs that appear within the plane. And clearly, dimensional equipment, which brings convenience to the world, is considered a bug that shouldn't exist in the eyes of spatial law.
Therefore, even if the tribe still has surplus dimensional equipment, Allen is still accustomed to carrying only the one with the largest capacity.
Figglas transformed his body into a giant dragon, filling almost the entire empty square outside the secret chamber. Then, he opened his large mouth and spat out crystals and materials, some with saliva on them, from his throat and tongue.
Each time he spat out something, Figglas would glance at it with reluctance, and at the same time, cast a worried look at Allen, as if Allen would embezzle these things. Allen, of course, knew that this was just Figglas's nature, and simply smiled faintly and accepted it calmly.
The reason Allen didn't accept Mansha's kindness before was because he thought Figglas might have a solution. Now that his dimensional equipment could indeed completely contain this colossus, Allen was pleasantly surprised, even though he was somewhat prepared.
If he could bring this colossus back and find someone to repair it completely, then a major hidden danger for the tribe would be eliminated.
The tribe's stretched operations are too long, with Green Lake Town and Moore Fortress spanning over a thousand miles east to west. Even the speed of a legendary powerhouse would require one or two days for a round trip. And these two territories are both very important to the Green Field Tribe, each requiring a legendary powerhouse to guard it.
Although the Green Field Tribe nominally has three legends, in reality, the human legend Eric doesn't manage affairs himself, focusing more on the development of the Tandin Society. At the same time, Allen is also somewhat wary of this alien legend and cannot trust him like Cole. Therefore, in reality, only Allen himself and Cole can guard the two major towns.
Now with this colossus, the tribe is equivalent to having an additional loyal legendary powerhouse. When Allen needs to go out for business, or Cole wants to travel and improve, they won't have to be like now, with each guarding a town.
Allen has already begun to calculate what to use to exchange with Figglas, to get him to give up the ownership of the other half of the colossus. Although Allen solved the colossus issue alone, and Figglas didn't provide the clues, as a companion, Allen doesn't think he can take this valuable colossus alone.
"Not enough yet?"
Allen was a little worried. The space in his dimensional bag was gradually filling up, and Figglas was still spitting out various sundries. Forced to, Allen himself began to empty some low-value sundries and materials, just to keep more of Figglas's possessions.
"What do you think? This is a five-meter-high, two-meter-wide colossus!!"
Figglas rolled his eyes at Allen. If he wasn't clear about the true value of this colossus, he wouldn't entrust his treasures to a goblin to keep. For a dragon who regards treasures as its second life, this is extremely shameful!!
"... Chieftain Allen, you guys cleaned up really well, no wonder you let us in to search!!"
Cosmo's sarcastic voice came from behind the dragon, it seemed they had searched the secret chamber.
Just as Ariel and the other two reappeared in front of the dilapidated door of the secret chamber, they happened to see the scene of the giant dragon opening its mouth wide and swallowing the complete colossus into its stomach.
The colossus, which was originally much thicker than the dragon's throat, easily disappeared after entering the dragon's big mouth. A few shadows were added to the eyes of Ariel and Zolf, and at the same time, a spark of wildfire rose in their hearts, but they concealed it very well.
"Let's go, my friend."
Allen was too lazy to pay attention to these greedy guys, and even stingy with giving them a contemptuous look. Completely ignoring the speaking Cosmo, Allen said to Figglas.
"You have to remember the conditions we agreed on when you go out, don't try to go back on your word later!!"
Figglas tacitly sang along with Allen, slowly transforming into a goblin form in front of the few people behind him, reminding Allen.
"Don't worry, the thing is still on you. After we go out, we'll have a good chat about the value of this colossus. I'll exchange something of equal value for your half."
"Okay, I want gems, emeralds, starlight diamonds..."
The problem of the colossus was solved. Although there were a few flies disturbing the situation, Allen couldn't help but feel more comfortable.
...
The two ignored Cosmo and the other two and returned along the same path. Although they clearly sensed the malicious gazes coming from behind, Allen was not worried due to his strong confidence. For the sake of peace in the Northern Territory and his future plans, Allen has been very restrained, but if the other party continues to be relentless, then Allen doesn't think he needs to worry about anything else when he takes action.
After leaving the secret chamber passage and shaking off Cosmo and the other two, Mansha's figure reappeared in front of Allen and them.
"Good harvest, right? I didn't lie!"
"They're all old goods that have lost their rank. The gap between what you said before is too big. Don't say we didn't see the so-called semi-divine artifact, we didn't even see a legendary equipment!!"
Figglas said dissatisfied.
"I couldn't have predicted this either. Anyway, there used to be these things in this secret chamber before."
Mansha spread out her hands and said helplessly.
"Then what you told us before, that there is a semi-divine inheritance and a way to shed my scales, are you also lying to us?"
"You can rest assured about this. 'That thing' exists relying on this demiplane. As long as the demiplane is stable, it will be fine."
Mansha replied with great confidence at this time, but unexpectedly Figglas took the opportunity to suggest that she take the two of them to see it, and Mansha only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
"We don't know if what you said is true. Don't let us be happy for nothing like this time. Why don't you take us to see it."
"...Okay, I'll take you to see it."
