Green Monster Epic
#623 - Green Lake Encounter
After seeing Svara off, Allen couldn't sit still himself. After fretting for a few more days, he said goodbye to Albard, the quarry manager, and drifted off to the east.
Green Lake Town had changed quite a bit. The town was several times larger, and there were many more intelligent races besides goblins, bustling along the straight, crisscrossing roads.
From a distance, Allen smelled a strong, complex aroma, which immediately stirred the glutton in him, and he couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.
As the 'Allen Cuisine' brand gradually became well-known, more and more gourmets who came for the name regarded this place as their culinary mecca.
And reality did not disappoint them. The short goblins, who didn't have much talent in combat, devoted their energy to other non-combat professions in order to have similar or even better living conditions than other members of the tribe.
Compared to alchemy and forging, which require a lot of resources and constant study of formulas and techniques, the resources required for cooking are much smaller. Moreover, the Green Field Tribe has the most complete cooking books and many magic cuisine recipes. After learning the skills, there are many opportunities to find a good job, so many goblins in the tribe have devoted themselves to the cooking industry.
The more goblins who learn to cook, the more people will naturally develop more fresh and delicious dishes. In addition, the tribe has always encouraged innovation, and a cooking competition is held every once in a while to constantly enrich this new skill of cooking.
The name of the City of Cuisine became famous, attracting not only countless diners, but also many merchants who came to look for business opportunities. Some people came to Green Lake Town to find excellent chefs for the newly opened restaurants and hotels of their owners; others came to Green Lake Town to sell spices and ingredients native to other places; and still others...
Today's Green Lake Town gathers the most ingredients and spices in the Ferman world. Although the merchants have their own preservation methods, the complex flavors of various ingredients and spices converge together, and merge with the aroma of cooking dishes that permeates Green Lake Town, forming a long-lasting smell that shrouds the sky above Green Lake Town.
Allen casually draped a coarse linen coat over his black dragon scale armor to disguise himself, thinking that he looked like an ordinary bear goblin, and walked along the wide road from the quarry straight into the town.
Although the sun had just risen, there were already many people coming and going in Green Lake Town. Many breakfast stalls were also set up, and the hardworking green-skinned goblins were busy preparing all kinds of delicacies for the families and merchants living in the town to choose from.
Groups of chattering goblin cubs, carrying exquisite schoolbags on their backs, playfully frolicked on the road, heading towards the academy outside the south city.
There were also goblins cleaning, and guards on duty patrolling, each doing their part in their respective positions. Although they couldn't be said to be conscientious, at least their work attitude was commendable. Of course, problems such as laziness and listlessness were still not uncommon. In Allen's critical eyes, these guys still needed to be beaten up a bit more.
But at least the goblins' living habits have changed dramatically, which is an undeniable fact. If it were the Green Field Tribe where Allen lived as a teenager, the coolest time in the early morning would be a good time for everyone to sleep soundly. How could any goblins get up at this time to work hard!
Allen thought that his disguise would not be discovered, but he didn't expect that walking on the road still attracted a lot of attention.
Along the way, there were young goblins passing by, staring at Allen with burning eyes, whispering to each other and eager to move, as if they wanted to run up to Allen and strike up a conversation, but also seemed to be very awed by Allen, and did not dare to turn their thoughts into action.
There were also those stall vendors, showing their goodwill to Allen from afar with respectful eyes. Some people took out their own tableware, picked some foods they thought were delicious from the stall, and wanted to stop Allen and invite him to eat, but when they saw that Allen ignored them, they disappointedly put down the bowls and plates in their hands.
As for those lazy goblins working, they immediately packed up their moods in shock after seeing Allen's face, either standing upright with sharp eyes and starting to patrol the surroundings, or cleaning up the garbage on the ground into their garbage trucks quickly and vigorously.
Allen frowned. He didn't expect that after causing a farce in that Moore Fortress, he would be recognized when he returned to Green Lake Town at home. It seems that if he wants to wander freely in the tribe in the future, he really needs to disguise himself well.
Noticing the commotion in the crowd, Allen quickened his pace. Before he could be surrounded, his figure quickly disappeared into the increasingly lively street.
It wasn't until he reached the top of the low mountain square in the center of the town, and saw the lifelike sculpture in the center of the square, that Allen finally understood why the residents of Green Lake Town would recognize him.
That was a bear goblin statue made of obsidian as the base material and inlaid with many precious metal materials, at least ten meters high. The statue held a two-handed greatsword in both hands, stepped on an obsidian rough stone with one foot, and stared into the distance with sharp eyes. On the slender and strong body, the armor decorations overlapped and connected, with details down to each scale.
And the bear goblin's face was exactly the same as Allen's current appearance, with every hair clearly visible. The majestic face revealed a domineering look, making people feel awe.
"This is ridiculous!!!"
Allen scolded softly, shook his head, and walked towards the castle north of the square that originally belonged to him, but was later handed over to Trick for use as the town hall.
The four strong goblin warriors at the door looked straight ahead, and when Allen passed by, they slammed their man-high double-edged battle axes on the ground, paying tribute to Allen in military etiquette, apparently already recognizing Allen.
Not only was the Moore Fortress deliberately publicizing Allen's great deeds, but Green Lake Town, as the place where the Green Field Tribe started, not only regarded Allen's various deeds as legendary stories that children must listen to before going to bed, but also Trick and others specially built this huge statue for the tribe to admire the great chief.
Of course, this statue not only serves as a place for the goblins to admire the chief's appearance, but also has other important uses. Otherwise, with Allen's thrifty character, he would not have agreed when Trick reported that he wanted to build such a thing.
But what Allen didn't expect was that Trick and the others chose to use himself as the prototype for the sculpture. Now that he saw the lifelike bear goblin face, he felt a little uncomfortable, but at the same time, he secretly felt a trace of pleasure, but he didn't show it.
The tribe's public assets accumulated more and more. Although the expenses required were like flowing water, the tribe was no longer as barren as it used to be. The various materials from the Kator Mountains, the well-established cooking industry in Green Lake Town, and the gradually explored magic plant cultivation, all brought a great deal of income to the tribe.
With more and more resources, they naturally needed to be utilized, especially the safety of the tribe's two major strongholds, which could not be ignored. Na'Mur Fortress possessed the advantages of natural geography, and the Ajina tribe had managed it for countless years. Its safety and protection investments were among the best in many wilderness tribes.
It was only after Green Lake Town started developing from a weak state that the expansion speed of the town gradually slowed down and stagnated. At this time, Trick and the others began to consider the layout of the town's security.
Although the terrain of the Green Wilderness Plain could not be considered completely flat, the highest hills were only like the small mountain in the central area of Green Lake Town, which had its summit cut off, only two to three hundred meters high, and their distribution was very scattered. The actual terrain undulation was not very large.
In such a geographical environment, if you want to build a majestic city, the height of its walls must be at least thirty meters or more, otherwise, it would be difficult to effectively resist the climbing attacks of combat professionals. And considering the current area occupied by the Green Wilderness Tribe, building a city wall that surrounds the entire town is indeed quite difficult.
At the same time, in addition to defending against organized attacks by the army, Green Lake Town must also have a certain degree of defense against magical attacks. The most common method is naturally to build a magic circle that can be activated at any time, completely separating the inside and outside of the city when necessary.
The huge statue sculpted in the image of Allen is itself an important node in the construction of the magic circle, which is also its most important function.
With complex emotions, just as he was about to enter the familiar castle, two powerful auras suddenly rose from the southwest of the town, immediately attracting Allen's attention.
"Chieftain..."
Trick, who was originally working in the castle and came late after receiving a report from his subordinates that the chieftain had arrived, only saw Allen soaring into the sky, flying towards the southwest.
Allen was very curious as to which two legendary powerhouses dared to run wild on his territory. However, before he could fly close to the arena where the two legendary powerhouses were, he had already sensed the familiar aura of these two legendary powerhouses.
As expected, when Allen's figure appeared in the arena exclusive to the Tandin Society, he happened to see the figures of the human Eric and the Drow legendary sword dancer Ted, shuttling back and forth in the arena, with various fierce gusts of wind drifting in the wide arena.
The two legends in battle also felt the information of a stranger arriving, and the movements in their hands gradually slowed down, and they turned to look at the newcomer in unison.
"Long time no see, Chieftain Allen."
Ted, the town guardian of Corima Town, who was renamed Dark Elf, took the initiative to greet Allen.
"Hello, Guardian Ted."
Allen also returned with a friendly expression: "I didn't expect you two to be so leisurely, starting a fight so early in the morning."
"I've recently gained some insights from closed-door cultivation, so I wanted to try my moves with Ted to see my progress."
Eric has become more and more calm. Over the years, he has established the Tandin Society single-handedly, and has indeed developed many fellow travelers on the territory of the Green Wilderness Tribe.
"Then I didn't disturb you, did I?"
"No, we've only just started."
"It's you, Allen, do you have something to look for me? It's rare to see you usually."
"It's nothing, I just went to the quarry to take a look, and happened to pass by the town on the way back, so I came over to take a look."
"You continue, and when you're done, we'll have a meal together."
"Okay."
...
The three chatted casually, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious. Soon Eric continued to spar with Ted, while Allen stood aside and watched quietly, his eyes drifting away.
The development of Corima Town is also very good. I don't know how well these followers of the Underdark maiden can hide. Anyway, over the years, Drow and underground vassals have come to live in Corima Town one after another. Now the population is over 30,000, of which Dark Elves account for the majority.
However, the predicament of the Dark Elves also exists. Their population growth rate has far exceeded the maximum carrying capacity of the gravel beach where the Green Wilderness Tribe gives the elves a place to live. If Allen hadn't later pulled the Dark Elves together and opened up the Green Na Trade Route between the east and west towns, allowing the Dark Elves to share a portion of the benefits, I'm afraid they might not be able to have a relatively stable life like they do now.
However, sandwiched between the two major towns of the Green Wilderness Tribe, the high-level Dark Elves are still somewhat pessimistic about the future.
The Dark Elves seem to have developed very well in recent years, but that is mostly due to the defection of the followers of the Underdark Maiden hidden among the Drow, which has brought a lot of fresh blood. As fewer and fewer maiden followers escape, the development of Corima Town has gradually slowed down.
With the reproductive ability of the Dark Elves, it is almost impossible to have such an explosive population growth like now in the future.
Looking at the development of the Green Wilderness Tribe that sandwiched them in the middle, the development of Green Lake Town and Na'Mur Fortress almost overwhelmed the Dark Elves of Corima Town. The Dark Elves, who have always been willing to speculate about others with dark hearts, naturally have to worry that the Green Wilderness Tribe will annex their clan in the future.
Therefore, in order to save themselves, Ted and Lydia, the two leaders of the Dark Elves, have been thinking about how to break the situation, trying to win over allies, while also taking into account the attitude of the Green Wilderness Tribe.
Fortunately, in Green Lake Town, there is also a group of aliens like Ted and the others, that is, the Tandin Society, a group of people who believe in self-respect and independence. Although most of the current fellow travelers of the Tandin Society are goblins of the Green Wilderness Tribe, the group of humans who came with Eric in the first place still control the important departments of the Tandin Society, large and small.
Moreover, in these years, the humans of the Tandin Society have also grown a lot. Now, among the more than 3,000 humans living in the Green Wilderness Tribe, most of them are members of the Tandin Society.
In addition, Eric, the legendary leader who possesses the power of two magical fields, can be regarded as an important force around the Green Wilderness Tribe, which is enough for the Dark Elves of Corima Town to express goodwill and maintain a good relationship.
Of course, it would be even better if they could form an alliance with the Tandin Society and resist the Green Wilderness Tribe together.
It is based on this idea that Ted has often visited Green Lake Town in recent years, and soon became close friends with Eric.
Allen coldly watched the tacit cooperation between the two in the arena. His face looked relaxed, but his brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about why these two legends were so familiar with each other. As a leader, Allen never believed that Ted, the town guardian, would have too much free time to come to Green Lake Town to help other legends practice.
