Chapter 1298: The Old Priest

The old priest did not dare to refuse Ronald's inquiry.

He began to describe the situation of his own tribe at the moment, and the content was in perfect harmony with Congressman Darman's statement.

Only look at it from some unique perspective.

It was something that the old priest was troubled by, but Hamono did not understand.

For example, the name of this tribe implies that this is not a tribe ruled by priests, but the Great Commander Ivan belongs.

It's just that I can't connect with the original area now.

As a man of special status, this old priest took on the task of leading the clan, but there were also many things that he could not trespass.

They have a deep tradition of customs.

For example, in terms of dealing with Hamono, the members of the tribe would not agree to the old priest's complete agency, and the old priest himself would not allow himself to interfere.

In their original ethnic structure, this was something that only the Grand Commander was qualified to decide.

In fact, they are a migratory tribe.

It was also at the behest of the Grand Commander Ivan that he came here as an early explorer.

“……”

Ronald listened carefully to the old priest's explanation.

The old priest was helpless about the dispute that took place in the city.

Once the number of human organizations increases, due to the differences in their opinions, it is inevitable that several forces will be divided within themselves.

Under the rule of the Grand Commander Ivan, the main factions were the warmongers and the moderates. Those who quarrel and even fight in the city are part of the warlike people of the tribe.

However, the position of the old priests was moderate.

In normal times, he might be able to say a few words, but in today's emotionally intensified environment, as long as he opens his mouth - not to mention de-escalating the situation, it is easy for the warmongers to fight directly with them!

“……”

"Can't you get in touch with the archon now?"

This matter is not easy to solve, Ronald thought about it, and could only ask about this point first.

According to the old priest, if the archon could be contacted now.

Then the problem of this migrants tribe can be solved almost immediately.

The old priest shook his head with a bitter face and said:

"Sir, that's exactly what troubles me right now."

"It's so far away from our hometown that even if I try my best, I won't be able to get in touch with the Grand Commander."

“……”

That's the expected answer.

Ronald asked this question with the intention of trying.

But just as Ronald was about to respond, the old priest took the initiative to speak:

"Sir, in fact, the previous prophecy, I originally interpreted it as a great crisis for the tribe here, and although the Grand Commander himself is not there, his eyes are still watching us, waiting for some kind of change or opportunity to come."

At this, the old priest paused slightly.

He looked at the three Ronald carefully, and then continued helplessly:

"But after the three of you arrived, I knew that my previous interpretation of the prophecy must have been wrong."

"The problems faced by the tribes are actually the problems of the indigenous people here; And the divine bird that is high up and overlooks everything is you, who have supreme power! ”

The words landed, and the old priest lowered his head almost at the same time.

He knew that he was powerless to resist in front of Ronald and the three, or that everyone in the tribe combined was now unable to resist the will of these three.

The old priest, who had a tempered personality, could only pray for the mercy of the man in front of him with this posture at this moment.

“……”

Ronald also felt pity for what happened to the old priest.

But Hamono is also an innocent city, not to mention that Ronald also accepted the commission.

Under this premise, Ronald chose to be open and honest:

"Mr. Priest, I won't hide it from you, the three of us have actually accepted the commission of Hamono, hoping to solve your current problem."

“……”

The word despair was almost written on the old priest's face.

Ronald's words were almost a verdict for him and for the tribe, meaning the final direction of fate.

The old priest could not be silent, and he squeezed out almost all the strength of his withered body to make a final request to Ronald:

"Sir, our tribe has a serious problem right now."

"I don't want to go against your will—but with scarce supplies, unfamiliar circumstances, and fluctuating human hearts, I'm afraid there won't be anyone left in the entire tribe if you go far away under such circumstances."

- You're pushing us to a dead end.

The old priest did not throw the blame at Ronald's head, but simply stated the consequences of doing so.

And Ronald ...... His blood pressure is now up.

Although I knew that this matter was probably a trouble before I took over, I actually came to see that the specific situation was like this.

If only Ronald had come earlier.

Then the belligerents will be suppressed directly, and everything will disappear before it gets out of control.

But now...... This cannot be solved in this way.

The conflict between the migrants' tribes and Hamono has already led to armed conflicts, and now even if the warmongers are disposed of, the relatives and friends of those in the migrants' tribes will go to extremes in an aggravated situation.

"Poof—"

Suddenly, laughter came from the side.

When Ronald was dizzy, Caterina was also out of her mind.

And when she saw Ronald's current appearance, she understood everything in an instant.

Immediately, Caterina teased:

"Ronald, aren't you asking for trouble?"

"If we follow my method, we will either force Hamono directly to help us, or we will directly wipe out this place. Both methods are simple and direct, without thinking, isn't this 10,000 times more comfortable than your current tangled appearance? ”

Ronald immediately gave Caterina a blank look.

But at the same time, the old priest's cloudy eyes had widened—he was frightened.

These words came out of the mouth of the tower master of the astronomy department, and they sounded like the truth.

But Ronald knew that it was just Caterina's joke on herself. If this guy really wants to act, he won't joke with himself here at all, but directly put it into action!

Then, under the horrified gaze of the old priest, Ronald said cautiously:

"Anyway, the three of us will go back to Hammono first and tell the situation over there."

"The lives of many people are at stake, and this is not something that can be decided by our will alone!"

Naturally, Caterina and Ramer had no problem with Ronald's decision.

The three of them got up from their tents, each chanted a spell to activate the flying spell, and prepared to return to Hamor City immediately.

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.

The old priest in the rear actually stood up straight, and followed directly behind Ronald:

"Mr. Ronald, please let me come along."

"After all, it's no surprise - this should be our clan's last chance."
