Chapter 367 Destruction and Rebirth

Master Ma's words aroused Imrik's doubts. There is basically no clear explanation about Sotek's origin. The young ancient saint, the faith aggregation, the zodiac dragon, etc. may all be his identity.

But listening to Master Ma's words, it seems that he is a physical god, not a purely conscious creature like the ancient saint.

"What the hell is Sotek?"

At this time, Master Ma returned to his previous inscrutable demeanor. He no longer chatted boredly with Imric as before.

"Sotek's arrival has been predicted for a long time, but whether it will bring destruction or rebirth is something that Slann cannot know."

"Okay, if you say it, you won't say it. Can you use some words that I can understand to explain what Sotek is?" Imrik gave the big toad a look of contempt, and suddenly realized that the big toad was still easy to communicate with. Some.

Master Ma did not assume the thinking of the younger race and continued the obscure riddle.

“But it’s all waiting to happen, and you’re a part of it.”

After it finished speaking, a ball of white light appeared in its hand, shrouding Imrik.

A moment later, Imrik, who was still in a dazed state, was sent to the square where he started, sitting cross-legged.

With a beautiful turn, his body landed smoothly, and he couldn't help but curse at the pyramid that he thought was mysterious and abnormal.

"What kind of bullshit is this? You didn't even say a clear word when driving people away. It really embarrasses the title of the eldest son of the ancient saint."

When a group of dragon princes who were on guard saw the prince return intact, they immediately surrounded him. Seeing the prince's angry look, it might be that the communication with the demon toad was not harmonious, and he might have to break out now.

When Imric was still angrily scolding Master Ma for being covered in fat and that he would throw it into a cauldron to make a boiled frog in the future, Davian carefully interrupted him and looked at the few approaching people with caution. The Skink Priest, and the accompanying Monitor, said to the Prince,

"Prince, if the negotiation has collapsed, I will tell you that these cold-blooded people must not be trusted. Please call His Highness Minas Nir first, and we will cover your departure."

Imrik, who was interrupted by Davian, was not in the mood either. Maybe Master Ma looked at him and laughed at him on the pyramid, mocking his cerebellum for not being developed enough and not even making any preparations to counter magic.

He waved his hand and signaled the Dragon Prince who was still on guard next to him to relax, "The negotiation was successful. The lizard people will not interfere with our colonization plan. I have reached some agreements with the Demon Toad, and the two parties should start some cooperation in the future."

The Skink Priest with the giant lizard guard came to Imrik. He was the lively bar friend. He first walked around the Dragon Prince for a few times. After looking at it, he couldn't help but jump up in surprise. Stay open and say,

"Hiss~ You're okay. Lord God hates lively hot-blooded people the most."

Imrik couldn't help but cross his chest and snorted coldly. He said to the friend priest without any shame,

"Master Ma doesn't dare to do anything to me."

These words made the friend priest even more excited. It could be seen that it was a character that liked to communicate, rather than like the temple guards around the big toad, who were like stones waiting for the battle to come.

"Lord God asked me to take you around Hesiota and give you the topographic map of Lustria."

The lizardmen, who have no concept of diplomacy, did not hesitate to let the elves visit this important northern city, and also gave Imrik a terrain map. This would definitely not be some vague jungle distribution map, but a labeled map. Detailed military map with spiritual nodes and hidden sentry towers.

Imric didn't find this strange at all, but he just got to know the lizardmen a little more deeply. It may be difficult to gain friendship from this race, but once they regard you as an ally to advance their big plan, they will Don't hesitate to tell many things.

Everyone walked through the Hesiota. The giant lizards carrying stones and obsidian were led by the skinks and walked towards the labor area, preparing to strengthen the city walls or polish weapons for the lizard warriors.

The goldsmith's shop that lit the fire emitted scorching heat. Under the disbelieving eyes of the elf, he threw a whole bucket of extremely pure gold ore raw materials into the fire, preparing to use touching purification techniques to turn it into a suitable shape. , used as decorations, or turned into gold plates as recording materials.

And looking behind the open-air donkey fire, there are mountains of gold ore raw materials.

Some insects and unknown fresh meat were also brought into the city, and they would be distributed quickly. The environment in Lustria cannot preserve food for a long time, and the lizard people have not advanced in civilization for thousands of years, and they do not know how to deal with such things as food. Do more research.

Coupled with the talent of cold-blooded species with low energy consumption, they often only need one meal to provide long-term nutritional support, and the rest is to rely on the sun to maintain their lives.

As we left the labor area, we arrived at the place responsible for offering sacrifices. The environment here was undoubtedly much better than before. Neat streets connected the surrounding areas, and the well-trimmed decorative trees were also very beautiful.

The temple door is decorated with gold and is inlaid with yellow gems of different sizes. Under the exquisite craftsmanship of Skink craftsmen, they are neatly arranged to form a sun crest.

"~His~ This is the place where ancient saints are worshiped, Koteg." The Skink Priest introduced Imrik to the situation here, followed by other surrounding temples dedicated to ancient saints, almost all with similar exaggerated decorations. .

Imrik swallowed. He had thought that the lizardmen were rich before, but he didn't expect them to be so rich. Just the fist-sized topaz on the door of the Kotheg Temple would probably attract Lothern. An uproar in the gem market.

This is an unparalleled temptation for Caledo, who is financially strapped. If all these gems are pried away...

He quickly threw this thought out of his mind, thinking that he was going crazy for money. For the colonial plan, the Dragon Palace had already requested a large amount of loans from several banks with good reputations in Lothern.

Although the default conditions have almost no effect, they will also make the Dragon Palace lose credibility. Even if these banks just want Caledor's influence, terror will not urge repayment at all, but a huge loan of millions of gold leaf coins is still a burden.

"Kozrat, I think the cooperation between Caledor and the eldest son of the Ancient Saint cannot be superficial." Following Master Ma's tone, Imric issued a Slann-like command to the Skink Priest who had just learned his name. instruct.

"~His~, Lord God asked me to cooperate with you to realize the prophecy." Kozrat turned his eyes and spoke Master Ma's order without thinking.

"I think the equipment of the eldest son of the Ancient Saint is a bit behind the times. Caledor can provide you with better services." Imrik proposed Caledor's best service, which is to sell equipment.
