Lord of War

114. Ronan the Barbarian

This is an old tribal site that is dilapidated like ruins.

There are no huge wooden walls standing upright like those tribes in the Western Continent, let alone structural defenses like stone walls. Some are just some rammed earth walls that are not even as high as a person, and they can't even be regarded as earth walls, but rows of earth mounds. Let alone those silver masters, even people at the bronze level can easily climb over. In terms of expecting these earthen walls to have any defensive effect, it is better to say that these earthen walls are just a symbol of territory.

This tribal gathering place has a name that is not fancy, and certainly not ugly.

heavy rock.

Just like the meaning given by the people of the tribe, the people of the Chongyan tribe are indeed as hard and tenacious as rocks.

Sean followed behind the high priest of the Chongyan tribe, surrounded by Cecilia and Tini. Andre did not follow, but was in charge of setting up the cordon to prevent possible incidents. attack.

In the middle of nowhere, no caution can be overstated, as enemies will often strike you the moment you let your guard down.

Walking in the tribe's gathering place, Sean could tell that as a fifth-class tribe, the gathering place would naturally not be too large. After all, the entire Chongyan tribe had less than 200 people. But now as he moved forward, what Sean saw was a dilapidated gathering place. There were only seven earthen houses here, which were the seven most important buildings in the tribe, including those of the chief, the high priest, and the head of the guard. The residence also includes the sacrificial hall for learning knowledge, the granary for storing food, the residence of future chief candidates, and the residence of tribal dignitaries.

But at this moment, five of the seven earthen houses have collapsed.

On the ruins, some barbarians can still be seen carrying away the stones from the ruins.

Priests in the wild land have a special method similar to alchemy. They can make and extract a very special liquid. This liquid can cause some changes inside the sand when poured on the sand, from the change to Waterproof and very hard. certainly. This kind of hardness is only relatively speaking. In terms of hardness, it is naturally not as good as a house made of stones, but at least it is much better than real sand, and not afraid of wind erosion is also a very important factor.

In addition to the collapsed earthen houses, many tents have been destroyed, and patches of scorched land can be seen in many places in the gathering place.

This point is naturally very familiar to the three of Sean who just let off fire.

Regardless of whether the high priest of Chongyan intended for Sean and the others to see the scene of the Chongyan tribe in front of them, at least Sean and the others had indeed seen the tragic situation of the entire Chongyan tribe. This is slightly different from what Sean had originally envisioned. Especially when Xiao En saw the situation of High Priest Chongyan, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and he didn't hide anything from his preoccupied appearance.

As a result, the surrounding air became a little low.

The place to receive Xiao En and others is in the earthen house of the high priest. Only Sean, Cecilia, and Tini could enter this house. There was only Heavy Hammer and two other barbarians, one old and one young—the old one had an unusually ferocious aura. This aura didn't indicate how strong this old man was, but there was no doubt that he must have been this old man once. The strongest warrior in the tribe; on the other hand, the other young barbarian, who was probably just an adult, seemed a bit weak. Kind of like a savage.

Sean estimated that

The young savage had certainly not seen blood.

"My dear guest. Thank you very much for saving Chong Hammer. I apologize for the offense just now." High Priest Chong Yan bowed his head sincerely and apologized.

On the way here, Heavy Hammer has succinctly explained the past grievances between him and Sean, and what happened in the Wind Chasing Tribe afterwards. He didn't even miss out on solving the Yanqi tribe's army incidentally along the way. After all, he also brought back the corpses of seven barbarians, and these corpses were being baptized at the moment. Then they can be buried in the ground.

"Are you down?" Sean looked up and down the high priest of Chongyan, and soon discovered the unnatural aura on him.

Sean's words. It caused a panic in the two barbarians next to him.

However, the High Priest Chongyan stretched out his hand very quickly. Xiao En noticed that the High Priest had managed to appease the emotions of the two with just a gesture, which proved that the High Priest was indeed very important in the tribe. beloved.

"Yes, honored guest." The high priest did not deny, but simply nodded and admitted, "In the last battle, I suffered some irreversible injuries, so my strength is indeed not as good as before. Now I also It is true that I am no longer suitable for the position of high priest, so my main energy now is to train this child... Ronan." The high priest Chongyan beckoned, and the young barbarian who seemed a little timid walked over : "This child's potential is very good, but his confidence is a little lacking. He will definitely be able to become a high priest in the future!"

Sean glanced at the young barbarian. Under Sean's sharp eyes that could almost be said to be real, the young barbarian looked a little timid and cowardly.

"Your name is Ronan?" Sean asked.

The young savage nodded.

Sean's eyes wrinkled slightly, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Say your name!"

"Ro...Rona!" The young barbarian panicked immediately after being so frightened by Xiao En, but the fact that he was not very proficient in the common language of the mainland was revealed as soon as he opened his mouth, "No, I mean... Rona! Take... Nan! Ronan!"

Soon, that golden light that no one could see appeared in Xiao En's eyes.

With just a glance, Sean's heart showed a hint of shock.

【Name: Ronan】

[Race: Barbarian]

[Battle Occupation: Priest (Level 1)]

[Personal attribute - strength: 15 (17); stamina: 15 (20); agility: 5 (10); wisdom: 16 (20); will: 16 (21)]

The barbarians are born with much higher strength and endurance talents than humans, but their agility is slightly inferior, especially for the barbarians living here in the wild land, the talents of strength and endurance are even more obvious Many, so barbarians in the wilderness generally have a strength and endurance growth limit of 15 points, while agility is limited to 8 points. Wisdom and will are no different from ordinary humans, both of which are 10 points.

But the barbarian named Ronan in front of him is only a "priest" at the first level, and he already has frighteningly high personal attributes. With Sean's detailed understanding of various professions, it is naturally not difficult to deduce this in front of him. The initial attributes of a barbarian named Ronan. And it was precisely because of the deduction of this attribute that he felt extremely shocked.

Because Ronan not only has the growth limit of 15 points of strength and endurance that ordinary barbarians should have, but even his wisdom and will also have the growth limit of 15 points! And even after he became an adult, he had reached the growth limit of wisdom and will. Compared with Ruby's young thief, Ronan in front of him was more in line with the definition of the word "genius"!

"He is indeed a young man with great potential." Although Xiao En was surprised in his heart, his face was very calm. He pretended to check Ronan's situation, and then nodded, "His achievements will definitely not be in the future." under you."

The last sentence was addressed to High Priest Chongyan.

"Witch priest?" After hearing Xiao En's words, High Priest Chongyan not only showed no anger, but a look of joy on his face.

"The Great Witch Festival." Sean said succinctly, "Of course, the premise is that he can live to that time and have enough time to study."

Originally, when he heard the words "Great Witch Festival", Ronan stood on the spot as if he was frightened, but Chong Hammer, Chong Yan High Priest and the old man showed a look of almost ecstasy , didn't seem to think about why Sean was so sure. However, after hearing the second half of Xiao En's sentence, the High Priest Chongyan also came to his senses as if he had been awakened: "My dear guest, you are right, even if you are talented, you still need enough time to study, and even enough hard work." .”

The growth methods of priests and witch priests in the wild land are actually similar to magicians and warlocks, but they are much faster than magicians. After all, magicians do not believe in gods, but priests and witch priests do have The habit of believing in the gods. In essence, as long as there is enough time and enough piety and diligence, it is not difficult for any barbarian who embarks on the road of priests to improve their strength, but the only level that blocks their growth is just like a magician. , The most important factor like a warlock.

talent.

Priests and witch priests in wild lands never lack time, and their beliefs are absolutely devout enough. But it is a pity that their innate talents also limit their future achievements. Maybe they can improve and change their strength when encountering some major opportunities, but not every barbarian can Favored and favored by the goddess of luck.

But no matter how fast it is, it will take at least ten years for Ronan to climb from the current situation to the position before the high priest of Chongyan.

Of course, if his luck is good enough, it may be faster.

In terms of immediate benefits, Ronan is worth less than Rupee to Sean. At least after a period of training for Ruby, he can be officially used in actual combat-of course, the premise is that this young thief will not run away during his first mission.

"I don't know this time, honored guests, why did you come all the way from afar?"

"Compared to this, I want to know what happened to the Chongyan tribe."
