Seeing that Matron Maris actually gave such a guarantee in public, the other matrons of the family present naturally no longer had any doubts, so they all nodded to Matron Drisinti in agreement. In the eyes of these matrons, There are not many truly strong people in the direct bloodline of the Hrudian family. Even if they conceal their strength here, it is still a bit too reluctant to challenge more than a dozen families in turn, so Mother Maris should want to Take advantage of this opportunity to win over allies and eradicate dissidents.
If you want to get a share of the interests of the Moeller and Abney families safely, you will naturally have to reach some kind of agreement with the Hrudian family behind the scenes. In this way, the two parties will become allies who can advance and retreat together. They share a lot of things, and those families that are unwilling to reach an agreement, or have made it clear that they want to confront Hrudian, such as the Posendenog family named by Matron Maris, will naturally have to use the strongest members of the family. Give them some color to see your combat power, and also serve as a warning to others.
Since some people want to challenge the status of the first family of Vigros in the future, why wouldn't other families who are suppressed by Mother Drexinti be happy to see this happen? Of course, the best result is that the two families are evenly matched. , or one of the parties is weak, so it will cost more to win over other families in the city who can change the situation of the confrontation.
Mother Drexinti looked at the mother of the Posendenog family whose expression changed drastically. She felt a little disdainful but did not show it on her face. She whispered: "What are you afraid of? We can reach an offensive and defensive alliance, regardless of the final outcome. Win or lose, the winner can share the benefits he gets from Khrudian. Of course, if you can win, we will not get involved in your part, and we will provide some extra help."
Mother Drexinti's words immediately made the mother of the Posendenog family feel at ease, and she began to think about how to deal with the life and death battle three days later. The corner of Mother Drexinti's mouth twitched slightly, but she still Hiding her thoughts, she said loudly: "Okay, Maris, as long as you swear in the name of the goddess Rose, we will believe your words."
Maris spoke without any hesitation: "I, Maris of the Horudian family, with a humble heart, swear with my soul to the supreme spider goddess Rose on behalf of the entire Horudian family, As long as Vigros and other families win the direct blood relatives of our family in a one-on-one life and death battle, we will fulfill the conditions agreed in advance and will never go back on our words."
Seeing that Mother Maris had finished speaking this oath, Mother Drexinti also uttered her own oath as usual: "Dressinti of the Vigros family swore to the great goddess Rose, This time the dispute with the Hrudian family will be resolved in the form of a one-on-one life and death battle. If our family is defeated, we will abide by the agreement we made with the Hrudian family in advance and never go back on it."
With Matron Drexinti taking the lead, all other matrons present naturally said their oaths one by one in order of family status. The content of what everyone said was similar, but they were all addressed to the goddess Rose. If they dare to go back on their oath, they will inevitably suffer divine punishment from the goddess Rose. The consequences will be far more serious than breaking their oath. Naturally, no one will do this under the balance of interests.
Standing in the family prayer room, Mother Maris watched through the magic image as the troops of the Viglos and other families slowly retreated. Finally, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. However, what would be the outcome of the life-and-death battle that started three days later, at least now? A crisis was avoided, and it also bought a lot of time for the family to create a soul golem. However, Mother Maris didn't know why Ryan asked her to agree to Drexinti's conditions, because she knew very well that her family's direct blood relatives were not He does not have the strength to challenge more than ten families at the same time.
Ryan and Faras cooperated to slowly teleport back the soul golems arranged in a square array. Those illusion magics can't last long. They must be done slowly before the spell effect is lifted, and no traces can be left behind. After Ryan completed all the aftermath signs, he said to Maris and the others: "This is just a way to delay time. The victory or defeat of the life and death battle is only related to the immediate distribution of interests, right, can you I won’t promise to never start a bloody family war again.”
"Ah, what you mean is that this life and death battle can be given up. We will use the interests of Moeller and other families to gain time for development. After we have the strength to win, then..." Mother Maris did not expect Ryan. He actually has such an open mind, and the benefits left by those destroyed families are so tempting. Ryan can resist the temptation and instead throws them out as bait. This makes Matron Maris think highly of Ryan again. a bit,
"Give up, haha, Maris, don't tell me that you don't plan to use these three days to secretly win over some allies." Ryan pointed out Maris's thoughts with a smile. He looked at Maris' face with shock. With an expression on his face, he continued: "Furthermore, we don't necessarily have to give up all life-and-death battles. Let go of the families who are leaning towards us and win over the families who are our enemies. This will maximize our interests."
"However, our family is not strong enough. After you asked me to agree to the request of Mother Drexinti, we can only use the family's direct bloodline due to the oath. Although we also have a few strong men with pretty good strength, but It is almost impossible to win against the most powerful families like Vigros and Bosendenog. Even if Grandmother Hainam is at her peak, she can only compete with the strongest of these families. There is no need to The certainty of victory." Mother Maris whispered,
"As long as I'm here, it doesn't matter." Ryan gave this answer simply, and then said: "You immediately arrange the manpower to help me do something. I need you to send scouts to investigate some things that happened between the dark elves and Luo. According to the news from the demon border, Aesopaton should have a teleportation magic circle. I hope to get the scout’s reward in the shortest possible time.”
"This matter is nothing to begin with. The teleportation magic circle itself was also made by our Khrudian, so it is naturally qualified to use it. It's just that now Isopaton City is closed. If you want to use the teleportation magic circle, you must get the city owner. That is the approval of Mother Drexinti, so..." Mother Maris replied hesitantly,
Ryan sighed slightly in his heart. He believed that Mother Maris would not deceive him. If Ryan were the Drexinti, she would probably refuse with various reasons. It seems that the Hrudian family would not be allowed to dominate this place. In this city, it is difficult for one's own plans to proceed without restrictions, so Ryan said to Maris: "Then wait a few more days. You first provide me with information on the strong men of these families who may fight. Then find the strongest people in your family. I will try my best to increase their strength in a short time. But I will say it first. Whether they can withstand my secret technique only depends on their will and body. , In addition, even if the secret method is successful, these people will never have any possibility of improvement."
"No problem, as long as they can break through their current bottlenecks, it doesn't matter if they can't make any progress in the future." Maris didn't care at all about the negative factors mentioned by Ryan, because these strong men of the Hrudian family are also very difficult. Continue to improve their strength before the end of their lifespan. Now that they have such a breakthrough opportunity, they will naturally not give up easily. Even if there is no possibility of further improvement in the future, or even if they die unexpectedly in the process, they can still transform their souls into souls. The golem, like Hainam, continues to serve the family,
Faras sat in the lounge specially arranged for them by Matron Maris, and said to Ryan with some worry: "You are planning to use the secret magic tattoos of the elves to forcibly enhance their strength. Will this expose us?" His identity, or letting such secret things spread among the dark elves, this is something Fulia can’t explain.”
"If you and I join forces, families like Vigros will naturally not be able to stop us, but our whereabouts will reappear in front of the eyes of those demigod kings. This is a very dangerous thing." Ryan stroked the beautifully carved armrests of the seats. , said slowly: "Think about it, if we deal with other families in the city at once, even if we do it perfectly, this kind of incident is extremely rare in the world of dark elves, and it will also attract the attention of others. So before, I only showed legendary level strength, even when facing Sabrina, I pretended to be the chosen one like her."
"As for magic tattoos, I only learned some secretly from Fulia. I don't have a comprehensive grasp. It just enhances some functional effects. It is almost impossible to greatly improve my strength or even break through my own bottleneck. I I also believe that the elves do not have such heaven-defying skills." Ryan shook his head and continued: "I actually plan to use the undead magic I learned from Catherine to draw a magic circle to imprison the souls on these dark elves. , and then use undead magic to seal the powerful undead souls in the dark elves... "
"This, this is too cruel." After hearing Catherine's name, Faras's face suddenly changed, but then she listened to Ryan telling her thoughts, and her eyes showed an uneasy look. She didn't wait for Ryan to finish speaking. He said, "Ryan, I'm very worried. You are becoming more and more dependent on these evil spells. What if it has any impact on you..."
"Don't worry, I always cast spells through the magic circle, and I only use energy conversion techniques to simulate the power of the undead, so the entire spell effect can only be described as specious, and there should be no problems." Ryan smiled He comforted his wife, and then continued: "And this is just one of the methods. There will naturally be no shortage of magic tattoos for enhancement, as well as various tailor-made powerful magic items. In short, I will do my best. Everything here can be solved quickly.”
