Green Monster Epic
#401 - happy event
"What the hell are you talking about?"
Allen stared blankly, looking at the earth goblin envoy in front of him, Manolankin Nika, one of the only two legends of the Ajinaga tribe, and shouted in astonishment.
"I said, Chief Allen, a heroic figure like you, not having a suitable partner until now is really not a good influence. Therefore, on behalf of Chief Byleir of my tribe, I sincerely propose a marriage to Chief Allen. Chief Byleir has a Miss Lena who has just come of age, intelligent and lovely, gentle and virtuous."
"If Chief Allen is interested, you might as well meet Miss Lena. If both parties are interested in each other, it may bring our two tribes closer together."
"Of course, if our two groups successfully marry, my tribe is willing to offer a generous dowry and fully support the development of Chief Allen's tribe..."
The sudden marriage proposal stunned Allen. Over the years, Allen has been devoted to self-improvement and the development of the tribe, and he really doesn't have much interest in finding a partner. Usually, Philip, Mauro, and other close people in the tribe have mentioned a few words to Allen, asking him to at least have a child, which would be convenient for inheriting the tribe in the future.
However, in Allen's view, even if his own bloodline continues, it may not be possible to become talented in the future, and even if they become talented, they may not be qualified to inherit the tribe. After all, the law of the wilderness has never been continued solely by blood inheritance, but is more inclined to respect strength. Without strong strength as a guarantee, even if you sit in the position of leader, you can easily be pulled down.
Moreover, which of the children, Cole, Shi Sheng, and Bush, didn't Allen watch grow up? He has also put a lot of effort into cultivating them. In Allen's eyes, they are actually no different from his own children. Whoever can inherit his mantle in the future will depend on their own abilities.
"Elder Mano, you came to visit today, not just for the marriage proposal, right?"
The term "marriage proposal" originated from the four civilizations. On the contrary, among the wilderness tribes, only the ruling classes of those hundred-odd member tribes would have such actions. Medium and small tribes like Allen's really don't have such a term.
After digesting this shocking news, Allen looked blankly at the earth goblin compatriot in front of him and asked憨憨.
"Hahaha, Chief Allen, you know, Chief Byleir has always valued you very much and hopes to reach a stable alliance with Chief Allen. Of course, if we can form a marriage in addition to the alliance and bring our relationship closer, that would naturally be even better."
In order to show sincerity, Manolankin, an equally strong man, came to mention the marriage to Allen this time. However, the earth goblin elder's strength is good, but his eloquence is a bit clumsy, and he went straight to the topic.
"If our two tribes form this marriage, the children born will naturally be able to inherit the foundation of the Green Field Tribe, and with my tribe's support, they will definitely be able to have a place in Mansa City in the future."
"Chief Allen, do you think this is a happy event?"
Allen was speechless. He had thought that the Ajinaga tribe would continue to win him over, but he had never thought that their means of winning him over would be the most common practice in human society, but rarely seen in the wilderness: a marriage alliance.
Allen's silence was exchanged for Elder Mano's continued persuasion, and at the same time, he threw out various generous conditions, such as a legendary inheritance crystal, as well as a lot of money, materials, and other resources, which made Allen faintly moved.
"...I want to think about this, okay?"
Unable to resist Mano's enthusiasm, Allen finally interrupted him and said tactfully.
"Okay, I heard that the food made in your village is delicious. I'll take this opportunity to taste it. Chief Allen, do you have any objections?"
Manolankin was not in a hurry. After all, winning over Allen was a pre-determined strategy. Even if he didn't agree for a while, it wouldn't hinder their subsequent actions.
"...Please do as you please."
Allen put on an awkward smile, nodded slightly, and then ordered a tribesman in the village to arrange accommodation for Mano.
After Manolankin left, Allen's stone fort suddenly became lively. Dashan and Mauro couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker. The old Philip next to him nodded repeatedly and mustered up the courage to speak.
"Chief, this is a good thing. You can get a young partner for nothing, and at the same time earn a generous dowry!"
"Enenene, I also think it's feasible!"
Dashan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. If the teasing in his eyes wasn't too strong, Allen might have really believed it.
"Get lost!"
Allen rolled his eyes unhappily and scolded Dashan with a tone that seemed fierce but was actually a little guilty.
To be honest, the conditions offered by the other party were indeed tempting. If Allen was full of utilitarianism, he might have agreed at that time. Not to mention anything else, just the bargaining chip of a legendary crystal might be enough to move and act the leader of any other medium-sized tribe.
Although Allen himself took the matter of a partner very lightly and was not interested in it, he still felt a little uncomfortable when someone suddenly proposed to introduce him to a partner.
However, just like Philip said, the marriage proposal put forward by Ajinaga had very good conditions and chips. Moreover, the point that Allen valued more was that the tribe could form a more stable alliance relationship with Ajinaga, a powerful earth goblin tribe, through this marriage, which was something that could not be achieved by anything else.
The magic contract showed a great effect when Allen was acting in the early days, but as he learned more about the magic world, he realized that after reaching the legendary level of strength, they actually used magic contracts and other things less often.
For the devils who created the magic contract, the soul of a legendary powerhouse is like a shining pearl in the dark world. Whenever a legendary powerhouse uses a contract and signs their real name and blood, they will be targeted by the devils from then on, and then use various strange means to make the legendary powerhouse violate the contract. Or simply offer temptations that legendary powerhouses cannot refuse, causing their souls to sink and eventually become the spiritual food of the devils.
Similarly, many strange magic curses can also be cast on a legendary powerhouse through the blood and real name left by the legendary powerhouse on a contract, directly killing the legendary powerhouse invisibly, which is really scary and worrying.
There are also legendary mages who have figured out the principle of the contract and can help people lift the restrictions of the contract at a certain price, making the other party of the contract the subject instead.
Various loopholes and flaws have made the magic contract a tasteless existence after the legendary level. Legendary powerhouses will no longer use contracts to restrict the behavior and actions of the target object unless it is absolutely necessary.
It was because Allen was weak and could not afford the cost of asking someone to lift the contract, and there were no powerful devils targeting his soul, so Allen, who did not understand the magic of magic in the early days, used magic contracts in many things.
"Chief, you should really find a partner. You've been single for so many years, and everyone sees it and feels bad."
Mauro slowly restrained his smile and sincerely persuaded, "Not to mention anything else, if Chief can have a child, then the people will feel more at ease, because with this child living in the village, everyone will believe that Chief will not leave us."
"That's right! Allen, if you have blood, you won't be so lonely!"
After hearing Mauro's words of concern, Dashan himself was a little embarrassed, and quickly adjusted his mentality of watching the show and echoed Mauro.
Speaking of which, among the tribesmen of Allen's generation in the village, those who died and were injured in these years, the closest people are only Huashe and Dashan. Mauro and Pavao are actually half-way members of the tribe. Although they are loyal to Allen, Dashan and the others are still closer.
Huashe has been traveling for nearly seven years without a trace. Chahua pursued Allen back then, but it ended without success, so it is naturally not good to speak on this matter. Only Dashan can persuade him like an old friend.
"Do you all think so?"
Allen looked around, and the younger generation bowed their heads and didn't want to speak. After all, it was a personal matter of the elders, and even if they had different opinions, they couldn't bring it up, not to mention that everyone actually hoped that Allen could have a partner who could talk to him in private and take care of his daily life, instead of still living alone in the stone fort, which was especially deserted.
Dashan nodded, and Mauro, Philip, and others echoed. Even Chahua, the female bear earth goblin, although her eyes were unhappy, did not object to everyone's opinion. It could be seen that she actually didn't want Allen, the respected chief, to live like this.
"I think it's best to let them bring that girl named Lena over to meet. If she's really an ugly monster, I won't agree!"
Of course, out of the natural jealousy of women, Chahua still pouted and said critically.
"Yes, we must meet her, and we'll all help to check her out!"
"Enen!"
Even a group of young juniors, at this time, couldn't pretend to be哑巴 and quickly raised their heads and cast curious eyes.
"...Get out!"
Allen roared in shame and anger, drove a group of people out of the stone fort, and then turned around and locked the heavy wooden door.
Regarding the matter of a partner, Allen wasn't particularly concerned, but at the same time, he wasn't exactly opposed to it either. If the benefits were sufficient, he naturally wouldn't mind having another person in his life. After all, Allen's every outing or training session now took years, so the time he could actually spend with someone was far too little.
Back on the grasslands, when the legendary female hobgoblin, Bridget, pursued Allen, if she had been willing to join the Green Field Tribe, Allen would have agreed to her pursuit without the slightest hesitation, and even sleeping with Bridget immediately would have been no problem at all.
Unfortunately, Bridget wanted Allen to abandon the Green Field Tribe and return with her to live in the Berusunni Tribe. On this point alone, Allen would never agree, no matter how high the stakes she offered.
Alone, sitting quietly at the large, wide table in the hall, Allen fell into contemplation. Various thoughts arose from time to time, and then, with a flash of icy white light, Allen simply used the mechanized mind on his Ice Heart Bracers, allowing himself to completely abandon all selfish and distracting thoughts, and objectively consider the choices before him.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but when the casting time of the mechanized mind ended, Allen had a clear understanding of the various pros and cons of the matter of marriage in his mind.
"Hoo ~ ~ ~"
Having made his decision, Allen stood up and exhaled a long breath, and all thoughts returned to calmness.
Judging from Mano's visit, it seemed he wouldn't return without a definite answer. In that case, why not keep him waiting, so he wouldn't think Allen acted rashly? Allen could also use this opportunity to discuss some of his previous ideas with Stone and the others.
Over the next few days, Allen left early and returned late, occasionally flying into the air to overlook the entire territory of the Muddywater Creek. At the same time, he also had Stone, Tom, and others send people to begin measuring the cultivated land in the village, bit by bit.
Over the years, the village had reclaimed land along the Muddywater Creek and Green Lake area, but there was no accurate count of the land that had been cultivated so far. Anyway, it was all tribal property, so what did it matter how much there was?
Now, with Allen's orders, Stone and the others applied the knowledge they had learned in school and books to practical use. This measurement actually brought a pleasant surprise to Allen. Not counting the Turbulent Bay area, which was too far away, the fertile land within the village's boundaries now amounted to a full 31,245 acres. No wonder the tribe's grain had piled up, with surplus grain every year.
Of course, although there was a lot of land, the actual utilization rate was not high, because taking care of such a vast amount of land required a lot of manpower and resources. In addition, the increasingly lax work efficiency of the tribe members meant that although many lands were planted with grain, the yields were not necessarily high.
Moreover, as Master Oscar had told Allen, the more land that was reclaimed, the greater the damage to the natural environment. The Muddywater Creek used to have a river channel that was almost 6-7 meters wide, but now, after passing through the downstream area of Green Lake Village, it had shrunk by half, because the surrounding land of Green Lake Village consumed too much water for irrigation.
After the work of measuring the land in the village was almost completed, about 6-7 days had passed. Mano Rankin finally couldn't hold back his temper and approached Allen again, solemnly asking him about the marriage proposal.
"Chief Allen, I wonder if you have considered the marriage I mentioned to you before?"
"Elder Mano, aren't you forcing me? After all, this is a major matter concerning my future happiness, and you must allow me to think it over carefully! Besides, until now, I haven't even met Miss Lena. I've only heard you praise her as so wonderful, which ultimately doesn't seem very convincing!"
Allen shook his head and spoke to Mano with difficulty. Having prepared himself mentally and already thought about how to talk, Allen spoke and acted with ease.
"If you want to see Lena, that's no problem at all. I can arrange it as soon as I get back!!"
Mano Rankin thought he understood the meaning of Allen's words, and immediately slapped the long wooden table, answering decisively.
"…What I mean is, before we meet, we should determine the dowry and such, so that there won't be any twists and turns."
"If it really comes to the point of meeting Miss Lena, I can't just say no at the last moment, which would not only disrespect Miss Lena but also harm the friendship between our two tribes, right?"
In the end, for the sake of the tribe's great cause, Allen decided to grit his teeth and sacrifice himself. As for the so-called love in the civilized world, that kind of ethereal and intangible thing was not as valuable as a full meal in the wilderness. Of course, if one day, the tribe no longer had to worry about daily meals and the safety of their lives, and began to pursue things like individuality and love, that would be the time for him, Allen, to retire successfully and completely prove his value.
"Oh, is that what you mean? That's no problem at all!"
Mano Rankin suddenly understood after hearing Allen's words.
"Do you think the dowry we're giving is not generous enough? Chief Allen, you're being too greedy. When my tribe marries with other tribes, we've never been so generous as we are today. There's definitely no possibility of increasing it further."
However, although Mano Rankin seemed very forthright and straightforward, when it came to important issues, he didn't budge on the things he needed to insist on.
"It's not necessarily about increasing the dowry. We can also talk about other things, such as exchanging the money and jewelry in the dowry for the knowledge and inheritance that we need, and…"
Since Allen was willing to use even his future partner as a bargaining chip, he naturally wouldn't give up any opportunity or benefit. The Ajinaga Tribe controlled the important passes at both ends of the Catoer Grand Canyon. Although their territory was not large, the actual income was enviable, which was an important reason why they urgently needed to win over allies after Lord Sivanas went into slumber.
The greatest wealth that Mano Rankin brought this time for the marriage proposal was naturally a legendary inheritance, while most of the many dowries given later were money and jewelry. After all, the other party controlled the throat of the bustling Mansa Corridor trade route, and the tolls they collected each year alone made them rich and greasy, which also made other tribes itchy.
Although the Green Field Tribe now only had several noodle restaurants in Mansa City as a stable source of income, in reality, their tribe's pursuit of money was not too great. The largest item, the slave trade, had been temporarily suspended by Ali Gune and the others, which had reduced the pressure. In addition, Allen had made a fortune using Blood and Fire, Devil's Barbecue, and other foods and recipes on the grassland front line, so the tribe would not need to worry too much about money for a long time to come.
"My tribe has always wanted to develop in the art of alchemy, and we also know that the Ajinaga Tribe is very experienced in this regard. If we can add a few sets of alchemy inheritances to the dowry, I can completely give up the money."
"Over the years, the knowledge and books that the Ajinaga Tribe has learned from the temple and collected, if there are any to spare…"
The intellectual and learning talents of the short earth goblins had long been developed by the Ajinaga Tribe. In addition to controlling the entrances and exits of the Catoer Grand Canyon, the Ajinaga Tribe was also famous for the various alchemical tools in their two fortresses.
From various magic potions to explosive tools and traps made with black powder, they were at least very famous among the wilderness tribes. Moreover, with the rich natural resources of the Catoer Mountains behind them, many magic potion plants did not need to be cultivated. They could directly enter the mountains to collect them, which brought a good income and gave rise to countless magic gatherers who settled in the Ajinaga Tribe and lived by collecting magic plants.
"…This, I can't decide on my own. Why don't Chief Allen, you wait a few days, and I'll go back and discuss it with Chief Birel."
After hearing Allen's request, Mano Rankin's entire face darkened a bit, and his mood gradually became like a splash of ice water, feeling somewhat cold.
This hobgoblin was really too greedy. A marriage proposal that was beneficial to both parties had ultimately become his reason for demanding an exorbitant price. If it had been in the past, Mano would probably have left with a flick of his sleeves, and before leaving, he would have said a few harsh words to scare this ignorant thing.
But now the situation in the tribe was complicated, and the Green Field Tribe, as an ally, was very important to the tribe. When he came, Mano Rankin had been carefully instructed by Birel to never get angry or upset, and to endure, so Mano held this breath of frustration in his heart, unable to let it go for a long time.
"Okay, no problem. Such a big thing as marriage requires everyone to prepare. If we succeed in this marriage, I will also send a generous gift. I will give those few recipes that I usually research, which can help the tribe's warriors advance, as a return gift to Chief Birel."
Allen nodded, and then casually said something that made Mano feel a little more comfortable.
"Then I'll take my leave first. Chief Allen, just wait for my good news!!"
Mano, who had at least gotten a good result, broke through the air and left, leaving Allen alone, watching indifferently as his back gradually became a black dot in the sky.
I originally thought that the protagonist's emotions should at least have a warm scene, but after thinking about it carefully, with the protagonist's personality, there would definitely be no such scene. Rather than trying to please some book friends who want to see the perverted psychology of beastiality, it's better to follow the protagonist's personality and add another boost to the tribe's growth. Anyway, my book has already flopped, and it can't get much worse!!
By the way, actually, beast intercourse is also quite exciting, hahahaha ~ ~ ~ ~
