Walking around, the dryad girl looked around.
Without walking such a long distance, she noticed something different.
Not far away, a huge building stands there.
Of course, this so-called hugeness is actually compared with other surrounding buildings.
Most of the buildings in the kobold tribe are very small, not to mention some very spectacular buildings, even compared with normal human buildings, they are very small.
Of course, this is also related to the nature of the kobolds.
To some extent, kobolds naturally prefer the underground. Even if they start to build their own house at this moment, they will dig underground most of the time.
Therefore, in the tribe in front of us, the buildings of the kobolds are not very conspicuous, and each of them looks very small.
But the building in front of me is quite an exception.
At least in the eyes of the tree spirit girl in front of her, the building in front of her was undoubtedly much taller than the other buildings.
Among them, bursts of faint voices came continuously, which sounded very conspicuous.
If you listen carefully, you will find that it is a burst of chanting.
Listening to the voice, the tree spirit girl's heart moved, and she seemed to have a faint feeling at this moment.
An inexplicable sense of familiarity came from my ears and flooded into my mind.
So, subconsciously, she continued to move forward and moved closer, wanting to listen closely and hear clearly.
As the distance approached, she quickly heard clearly.
In the room, there were waves of kobolds chanting, and that voice was nothing but chanting in waves of Common Tongue.
"This is."
Listening to the voice, the tree spirit girl couldn't help but feel a little bit inexplicable at this moment.
She recalled that the language Karunu spoke before was nothing but pure human lingua franca.
Standing where she was, she listened here for a long time, but didn't go in to disturb her, she just stood quietly.
Time passed slowly.
Not long after, a burst of footsteps began to be heard inside.
The little kobolds walked out of the room one by one, and walked out with some excitement.
Standing where she was, the tree spirit girl looked around and observed.
Most of the kobolds walking out of the room in front of them don't seem to be too old, and they look very small. They should also belong to children among the kobolds.
After a while, after the kobold children outside left, Karunu's figure slowly came out.
"You came out?"
Walking out of the classroom and looking at the tree spirit girl standing in front of her, Karunu just nodded, not surprised.
With his unique spiritual power, he had already discovered the existence of the dryad girl when she first came here, so he was not surprised at this moment.
"It looks like you're recovering pretty well."
He nodded, looked at the tree spirit girl in front of him, and then said.
Listening to Karunu's words, the dryad girl nodded, then hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did you teach them just now?"
"Um."
Listening to the dryad girl's words, Karunu didn't deny it, but just nodded: "Some basic lingua franca."
What he said at this moment was not the language of the kobolds, but pure common language, even the dryad girl beside him could clearly understand what he meant.
"this."
Hearing Karunu's words, the dryad girl showed hesitation on her face, and then continued: "Does it make sense?"
What's the use of spending so much effort to teach a group of kobolds
Dryads are a life-loving race, often kind and compassionate.
But even a dryad girl didn't think it would be useful to teach a group of kobolds.
After all, this is just a group of kobolds. Even if they can read and speak the common language, it seems useless.
"A tall building always starts from the foundation."
Karunu shook his head, not feeling that what he was doing was meaningless: "The same goes for education."
"The same human being, placed in a different environment, will be a different person."
"The lofty king and the struggling peasants in the farmland are all human beings in essence."
He opened his mouth softly, and said lightly: "Besides, if the kobolds want to develop in the future, they must negotiate with the outside world."
"At that time, the common language will still have to be learned."
Although the Kobold's own language also exists, it is too crude, and there are many places that are very vague, and it is not convenient to use.
As the kobolds develop in the future, they will inevitably need to learn the language of lingua franca.
Therefore, trying to educate the new generation now so that they can learn the common language and be able to communicate with the intelligent races outside is a major event worthy of attention.
This is the case for Karuno.
Of course, things like education will definitely not see any results in the short term.
Only through the persistence of generations and the hard work of generations can we finally see the results.
Karunu has enough patience for this.
On the side, looking at Karunu in front of her, the dryad girl was still a little puzzled, but she didn't say anything.
Standing beside Karunu, her nose moved, as if she smelled something, her face showed a look of astonishment: "You have the breath of God on your body."
"Are you the messenger of some god?"
She seemed to feel something, looking at Karunu seriously at the moment, and smelling it like this.
Standing where he was, Karunu was a little surprised when he heard the girl's question.
He did not expect that the girl in front of him would be so sensitive.
It seems that the so-called tree spirit does have its own uniqueness, and can feel the existence of divine power.
"Do you think there is any god who would recruit a kobold as a believer?"
He turned around, looked at the dryad in front of him, and then said so.
"But you do have the breath of God in you."
The dryad girl had a puzzled look on her face, and she seemed a little puzzled: "And it's not the ordinary kind."
The priests of the gods, the girl has seen some before, and felt the breath of these beings.
It's just that in the feelings of the dryad girl, the aura of these existences seems to be different from that of Karunu in front of her.
There seems to be an essential difference between the two sides.
This is an instinctive feeling, which made the tree spirit girl instinctively feel this way.
It's just why this happened, but she didn't know.
Standing there, she looked at Karunu in front of her with some doubts, and stood there for a long time.
"Tell me your story."
Karunu turned around and looked at the tree spirit girl beside her. Seeing her appearance, she couldn't help but feel a little interest in her heart: "What's your name?"
"Tilyn."
Seemingly remembering something, the dryad girl's face darkened, and now she came back to her senses, and said subconsciously.
She didn't seem to be very interested, she was just talking word by word.
"Your experience is sympathetic."
Standing quietly on the spot, looking at the appearance of the dryad girl, and listening to her previous words, Karunu nodded and said with a sigh.
From the conversation of the dryad girl in front of him, he already understood some basic information.
The tree spirit girl in front of me originated from the wilderness in the north.
There, there exists a tribe of dryads.
Of course, it is said that it is a tribe, but in fact there are not many dryads.
According to Tilin in front of her, the tree spirit tribe she used to belong to, even when it was the largest in number, the number of tree spirits in it would not exceed thirty.
It is extremely rare in number.
Of course, it is not a surprise that this happens.
After all, the tree spirit is of extraordinary blood, and even to some extent, it can be said to be a descendant of the gods.
According to the legend, they are the blood of the God of Nature and possess the divine blood inheritance of the God of Nature.
It's just that after the former god of nature fell, the blood of the natural god in their bodies was also cursed, so most of their power disappeared.
But even so, they are also extremely powerful and extraordinary blood, possessing all kinds of extraordinary powers that ordinary people can't imagine.
It is precisely because of this that their fertility is also not strong, and it can even be said that they are very weak.
For this kind of extraordinary life, there can be dozens of people in a tribe, which is not too small.
In the past, they took root in the depths of the wilderness, and lived here all the time, rarely being disturbed by outsiders.
Only recently have they been discovered, and there has been a crisis.
The people who found them were a group of centaurs.
"Centaur"
Listening to the words of the dryad girl in front of him, Karunu frowned: "The strength of the dryad should not be weak."
"Just a group of centaurs, can you break through your tribe?"
Dryads claim to be a race comparable to giant dragons.
Even though in the legend, their bloodlines were cursed by the gods and thus lost most of their power, they were also extremely powerful and extraordinary bloodlines.
Under the beautiful appearance, there is a powerful force hidden.
But the centaur is just a mortal race.
Although they have a human face and a horse body, and their strength is inherently stronger than other intelligent races, they are only mortals.
Just a group of centaurs, can the tree spirit be forced into this appearance
Karuno couldn't help but frowned.
If this is the case, then he will have serious doubts about the power of the dryad.
But later, Tilin's answer gave an explanation.
"Those are not ordinary centaurs."
As if thinking of the previous scene, Tilin showed a bit of sadness on her face, and continued to speak at this moment: "There is an evil god's breath on them."
"God."
Karunu's frown suddenly frowned again.
In this world, no matter what it is, as long as it is related to the gods, nothing is simple.
Moreover, judging from the situation just now, the tree spirit girl in front of her obviously possesses the unique ability to feel divine power.
So, those centaurs are not ordinary centaurs, but priests of a group of gods
If this is the case, it can be explained.
The priests of the gods have divine power, and they can use the power of the gods to help themselves. They are also an extraordinary power that should not be underestimated.
Moreover, for the priests of the gods, it is possible to hold the sacred things left by the gods in their hands.
If this is the case, then the decline of the Treant tribe is quite normal.
And what the tree spirit girl said next did not meet Karunu's expectations.
"The group of centaurs are priests who converted to evil gods. They cast magic and broke the guardian of our tribe."
Tilin was silent for a moment, and then continued to speak: "Afterwards, they drove a large number of kobolds, goblins, and orcs to consume our strength continuously."
"In the end, our tribe's defenses were broken and we had no choice but to flee"
Speaking of this, her face was full of sadness.
Standing there, listening to the girl's words, Karunu was thoughtful.
"Capture slaves and use cannon fodder to consume the enemy's strength?"
He listened to Tilin's words, and at this moment he had restored the centaur's tactics: "It's a very simple, but very effective method."
This method is very effective against enemies such as dryads with strong individual strength but few people and limited strength.
Of course, the most important thing is actually the powerful mobility of the centaur.
As centaurs, they are born with the speed and endurance of horses, and their mobility is very powerful.
And having such powerful mobility is the fundamental reason why they can use this method.
Even if your strength is strong enough, as long as you can't catch up with them immediately, you won't be able to give them a serious blow.
And if you want to evacuate, they will stick tightly behind you, bite your back, and tear off a piece of flesh from time to time.
Standing where he was, Karunu couldn't help frowning.
At this moment, he had already begun to think about how the kobold tribe in front of him could win against the centaur.
It's just that no matter how Karunu thinks, he can't think of a practical solution.
Kobolds are inherently weaker than centaurs.
Under the same number, there is almost no way for kobolds to outperform centaurs.
Unless targeted training can be made, or even corresponding means specially prepared for it.
Deny, in the case of excluding Karunu's own existence, there is really nothing that a simple kobold warrior can do if he encounters a centaur.
At this moment, this thought flashed in Karunu's mind.
In addition, another thing that concerned him was the gods that the group of centaurs believed in.
According to what the tree spirit girl in front of her said, those centaur priests were full of evil divine power.
According to this statement, then the god these centaurs believed in was undoubtedly an evil god.
It's just that I don't know which god this evil god is.
In the world of the gods, there are too many gods that have appeared in the past.
Even if it is the same priesthood, there have been many masters in the past.
The fallen, the missing, the sleeping.
There are just too many of these.
And because of the characteristics of gods, even gods that have fallen may not completely disappear, and may return.
Therefore, the identities of the gods believed by the centaurs are really difficult to guess.
