Creating a Different World - Chapter 2712
[Chapter 2712 Orthodox Long-eared Tribe]
Pulling back further, an old Long-Eared Tribe appeared in the painting, holding a spherical object in his hand. In front of this Long-Eared Tribe, the person who represented himself and was shining with golden light reached out to take it.
“What does this mean?” Greg showed a confused expression on the side, “Now I am the only one left in the Long-Eared Tribe, who is in this picture? Is it me when I am old? Then who is this person shining with golden light?”
Jia Zhengjin glanced at him sideways, thinking, what does it have to do with you? This Long-Eared Tribe is obviously not you.
“Are there any more behind?” Greg asked curiously.
Ren Bufan pulled back again, and the scroll reached the end.
Sure enough, there was another picture, with countless humans in the picture, which looked like a battlefield.
The battlefield was very chaotic, with various races fighting together, and there was even his own figure among them.
And above the battlefield, a huge figure covering the entire sky appeared, as if it attracted everyone’s attention at once.
“This demon again!” Seeing the huge figure in the last painting, Greg exclaimed, “What does it mean?”
Jia Zhengjin thought for a while and silently put away the scroll.
“Wait a minute, I don’t understand it yet!” Greg said to him, “What does the painting mean? Will the demon find me again?”
“Don’t think too highly of yourself.” Jia Zhengjin glanced at him, “At least I didn’t see anything targeting you in the last two paintings.”
“Really? But there is an old man from the Long-Eared Tribe, does that represent when I get old? And the demon reappears, and so many races are fighting, does that mean that after I go to the outside world, the demon will attack all races just to find me?” Greg exclaimed, “Wouldn’t that be very dangerous for me?”
“Didn’t I tell you not to think too highly of yourself!” Jia Zhengjin was a little speechless, “This old man from the Long-Eared Tribe may refer to your ancestor, and as for the last picture, there is indeed you in it, but the demon doesn’t seem to be coming for you, it’s looking at all races.”
“Is that so? But what if it’s me?”
Jia Zhengjin shook his head helplessly and turned to the other side.
After the members of the group each selected the appropriate equipment, they gathered fully armed and put the remaining magic weapons and equipment aside.
“Captain,” Alvis also put on a full set of mighty steel armor, holding a heavy sword in his hand, all heavy magic equipment, his face full of excitement, “These magic equipment are of high quality!”
“Well, it’s good as long as it fits.” Jia Zhengjin glanced at all the members in front of him. They changed into new equipment and looked more like regular troops. However, it was still difficult to conceal their temperament, revealing the unique flavor of adventurers.
“I have carefully checked that everyone only took the equipment they needed, and no one took more. The rest is here!” Sco also changed into a whole new set of magic robes, holding a mysterious-looking staff in his hand.
“Very good!” Jia Zhengjin looked around and turned to Greg, “Get one for yourself! By the way, what’s your combat profession?”
Greg came over without even looking at the magic equipment, “We Long-Eared Tribe are craftsmen! Our talent is to create weapons and equipment, and give them enchantments. Combat is unrealistic for us!”
“Really? After your people became undead, their combat power is quite strong.”
“Strong combat power?” Greg thought for a while, “That part is not of pure blood Long-Eared Tribe.”
“What do you mean?”
“We, the orthodox long-eared people, have no fighting power. The gods have bestowed upon the long-eared people the sacred talent of craftsmanship, but not the ability to fight. Those so-called fighting long-eared people are actually mixed-blood long-eared people born from the combination of different races such as humans and orcs. They possess the powerful fighting power of other races, and their mission is to protect the long-eared people, so they can return to the tribe.” Greg said seriously, “In the beginning, the mixed-blood long-eared people were excluded. It seems that the orthodox long-eared people were extremely opposed to and disgusted with intermarriage with other tribes. Later, after a long time on the mainland, their ideas gradually changed, and intermarriage began to appear slowly from generation to generation, and the number of mixed-blood long-eared people gradually increased.”
“Oh? Are you an orthodox long-eared person, or a mixed-blood?” Jia Zhengjin asked.
Greg immediately answered proudly, “I am a pure-blooded Long-Eared!”
“So there are no other Long-Eared people except here?”
“That’s right! All the Long-Eared people are here, and our people have never separated.” Greg replied, “But now, I am the only Long-Eared person!”
“Then if you want your tribe to continue, you probably have to marry girls from other tribes, and your offspring can only be mixed-blood Long-Eared people.”
“No–!!” Greg had a smile on his face, but when he heard this, his eyes suddenly widened with horror, and he held his head and screamed, “Oh my God! I didn’t expect this? I am the only Long-Eared person, either the tribe will become extinct, or I can only marry with other tribes, and only mixed-blood Long-Eared people will be left in the future? How could this be! Is the pure bloodline of our Long-Eared people going to end with me?”
“To be precise, it will end with your child, provided that you marry with other tribes.” Jia Zhengjin reminded.
“Plop!” Greg fell to his knees in a daze, somewhat collapsed.
“Captain,” Albis came to Jia Zhengjin, glanced at Greg, and whispered in his ear, “This guy is useless! He has no fighting ability. What can he do with us? Stay here and eat for free? How about taking him out and giving him some money to let him find his own way?”
Facing Albis’s suggestion, Jia Zhengjin responded calmly: “Everyone has his use, and it is not measured simply by fighting ability. Didn’t you hear it just now? The Long-Eared Tribe are craftsmen who are good at making magic equipment. Now all the magic equipment here is from their hands. A craftsman who can make magic equipment is a very valuable existence!”
“Yes!” Albis nodded quickly, “The captain is still smart.”
“This is common sense.”
“Hey!” Seeing Greg still squatting there, Albis kicked him in the butt from behind, “Get up!”
Greg woke up from his daze and looked back at Albis: “Why are you kicking me?”
“Nonsense! From now on you are the craftsman of our Living Adventure Group. You can’t be rude in front of the leader, understand? If you are obedient, you can get along well in the adventure group. If you don’t obey, I will just leave you here!”
“Don’t!” Greg said quickly, “You can’t just ignore me.”
“Then don’t be so dull, it makes people uncomfortable. Hurry up and get ready, we have to leave before dark! Are all the treasures here? Are there any others? Don’t keep them to yourself, otherwise you won’t be able to wait thirty years to come back to get them!”
“They are all here!” Greg nodded affirmatively.
