Chapter 906: Political Friendship
Queen Hippolyta's actions were going well, and the Council of Elders had no idea that she would choose to use such drastic tactics to regain control of the tribe.
After all, the Amazons have been at ease for generations after settling in the Black Forest, and the reason why the tribal leader bears the title of queen is simply to remember the glory of the former kingdom.
In fact, the position of the queen of the tribe is more like an elected public servant, and the general direction is controlled by the council of elders, and the queen's main task is to solve the disputes of vassals, and when a new enemy appears, she is responsible for leading the troops to go on the expedition.
But Hippolyta cares more than just the queen, she has more to bring to the Amazons, she's planning a revolution!
"Hippolyta, you will destroy the very foundations on which we stand!" The eldest elder of the Council of Elders said weakly, her teeth were about to fall out, and she was kicked hard by Shivana just now, and at this time she was already out of breath and less in breath.
"Think about it, Hippolyta, what kind of effect will it have on your people if you kill us? They will no longer feel that we are authorities, and that power will once again be based on naked violence. The other elder, still holding a spear, surrounded three young Amazonian warriors around her: "It will take generations to establish order, but it will only take a split second to destroy it." ”
"The new order has long since appeared, but you old eyes are blind to it." The spear in Hippolyta's hand pierced the throat of one of the Presbyterian members like a poisonous snake, and the other party fell to the ground silently holding his wounds: "Look at the outside world, how many chaos erosion events did you encounter when you were young?" ”
Hippolyta's wrist flicked, the spear in her hand turned into a phantom, knocked out the elder's weapon, and looked her in the eye: "I can hear people talk about it almost every month, where in the Black Forest there are traces of Chaos demons, our good days are over, old woman, it's time to face reality." ”
With the fall of the last Elder, Hippolyta set fire to the hall of the Presbyterian Church, and in the midst of the flames, the Queen said to her supporters: "A new era has begun, we can no longer be losers this time, the world is big, but there is no place for us to continue to escape." ”
"Your Majesty, we will definitely return to the top under your leadership!" Sivana wiped her spear, the blood from her own clan making her a little sick.
"Back then, we came across the sea, and seventy percent of the whole clan were transcendent." The Amazons, who were gathering outside Hippolyta, said, "Now we have more people, but the proportion of the transcendent is decreasing. ”
Shivana's face changed, she opened her mouth, and finally did not dare to speak to dissuade her.
"Starting today, Amazons will resume screening rituals." Hippolyta coldly uttered a decision that chilled everyone's hearts.
The screening ritual was a ritual that prevailed in the Amazon kingdom during its heyday, and each newborn was sent into an ashram to be screened, from the laws of nature.
Before the establishment of the Amazon Kingdom, during those days of hairy and blood-drinking, scattered Amazonian tribes were unwilling to waste resources to raise children who were not gifted, and they could not tell whether a newborn had the potential to become extraordinary, so there was a screening ceremony.
Let the weak be thirsty and starve to death while waiting, and let the strong get more resources.
This ritual was abolished in the later part of the Amazon kingdom, and now Hippolyta intends to revive it to change the lax lifestyle of the Amazonian tribes from its roots.
"Hippolyta, is this necessary?" Shivana hesitated for a while, but finally asked, "We have enough resources to feed everyone." ”
"Two months ago, we answered the call of the elves to clear the Corrupt Tree, and they died on the way." Queen Hippolyta didn't look back, and walked towards the Amazons gathered outside: "That time, fortunately, there were Seris and another group of outsiders intervening, otherwise at least half of the land in the Black Forest is not suitable for us to live now." ”
"How many times do you think we'll be spared by luck?" Hippolyta's words left Sivana speechless: "Look at the Serisians, they can send so many men to fight in the Far South, can we?" They have a large enough safe zone to get resources, to feed everyone, what do we have? We don't even have a full grasp of the Black Forest. ”
"A month ago, the fishing boats of the Yutunheim went out fishing more than twice as far as before, Sivana, we are about to face a food crisis, and the threat of chaos to us is closer than you think." Hippolyta's words silenced the Amazons behind her: "It won't be long before our vassal tribes have to choose between giving us food and starving to death, or fighting us and dying in battle." ”
"Thankfully, we now have another option." Wherever Hippolyta passed, the Amazons spontaneously moved out of the way: "Diana says that the Seris come from a vast and populous country, and that they are now willing to give some profit in exchange for time. ”
Hippolyta is probably the only person in the Amazon tribe who has looked beyond the Black Forest to the world.
Through her own channels, she and her daughter, Diana, learned that a large group of enemies were swarming in the Old World in an attempt to prevent the Cyris from monopolizing the Far South.
Hippolyta finally decided to take the ship of the Seris and deal with the world situation that may become more and more difficult in the future.
Hippolyta and her guards walked through the city, standing outside the gates, waiting quietly.
Waiting for the arrival of the Serisians.
Xu Yichen didn't let them delay for too long, and before the flames in the presbyterian hall were extinguished, the team of the Seris arrived.
The Demon Hunter appeared in the Amazon's field of vision with a team of less than a hundred men, but in the sky, the body of the Laughing Smith blocked out a large area of sunlight.
Although Hippolyta knew that the size of the floating battleship did not match its combat effectiveness, she was still struck by the miraculous man-made object.
"The leader of the Seris, the mastermind of your attack has been executed, I am the king of the Amazons, and on behalf of the Amazons, I hope that our friendship will last forever!" Hippolyta stepped forward with her long legs and stretched out her hand, a ritual that Diana had told her about the Cyris.
Xu Yichen reached out and shook Hippolyta's hand: "I wish friendship!" ”
