Chapter 314 The Mastermind
In the ancient tree of the alliance, all tribes that can be at the top or the end are powerful tribes, because these tribes occupy the most sunny places, which is a symbol of strength.
The upper layer of the ancient tree of the alliance, a place with branches facing the sun.
Here lives an ancient tribe, so ancient that the hidden elder of the tribe can participate in the meeting of the council hall at the top of the ancient tree of the alliance.
The tribe is a human tribe. In fact, although the human tribe and the powerful alien beast tribe live together in the ancient tree of the alliance, the real control of the ancient tree of the alliance is still firmly in the hands of humans. Those who participate in the council hall are all humans, and there are no alien beasts.
Although not in the center of power, the power of the alien beast tribe cannot be underestimated. They are also one of the constituent forces of the ancient tree of the alliance.
The ancient tribe here is called the Soul Clan. The word "Soul" is in the name, which obviously means that the soul has a certain accomplishment. To be precise, this tribe can enter the top five in terms of the strength of the entire ancient tree of the alliance, usually four or five, and it is not a simple tribe.
It can even be said to be a terrifying tribe. After all, the Alliance Ancient Tree gathers the top forces of the entire prehistoric continent. If it can rank in the top five among the Alliance Ancient Trees, it must be in the top ten in the prehistoric continent. How can a tribe that can rank in the top ten on a continent not be said to be terrifying?
Deep in the tribe, there is a forbidden area. The forbidden area is the place where the tribe's hidden elder practices. Generally, this hidden elder stays in the forbidden area and does not come out, unless it involves the life and death of the tribe, or the meeting of the Alliance Ancient Tree, the hidden elder will walk out of his forbidden area.
In the forbidden area, an old man sat in a dark and unclear temple, his long beard dragging on the ground, and the whole person seemed like an old monk in meditation, with no chest rise and fall, and no breathing sound.
An old man suddenly appeared in the dark palace. He bowed slightly and called softly to the old man sitting in meditation: "Elder!"
The old man sitting seemed not to hear and still did not respond at all. The old man who bowed was not in a hurry. He just bowed quietly, respectfully, and did not stand up, waiting quietly.
After a while, the old man sitting slowly exhaled, opened his eyes, looked at the old man who bowed and said: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Hearing the permission of the old man sitting, the old man who bowed slowly raised his body, but his head was still lowered, looking at the ground, and said to the old man sitting: "Elder, the beastmaster of the mountain tribe before has not been found."
"Oh?" The old man's eyes were hidden in the darkness, and no emotion could be seen in his eyes. He asked lightly: "Why?"
The old man who bowed was not panicked, but said calmly: "Since the last time the Deadpool died on the mission of Qiao Rou, , to ensure that the mission can be completed, I sent a level 6 Takumi expert there, but when he arrived there, he found that the beastmaster had disappeared and evaporated. "
"The level 6 Takumi expert tracked the area for a long time, but there was no trace of the beastmaster. "
"Over the years, I have been sending people to investigate, but each time I failed. There was no trace of the beastmaster, so I wondered if the beastmaster had died at the hands of the ancient Zerg because of the revival of the ancient Zerg, so there was no trace of him. "
There was silence in the darkness.
The old man sitting on the seat finally spoke slowly: "It doesn't matter if he died at the hands of the ancient Zerg, but what I need is the body of that person. It doesn't matter if that person's body is devoured by the ancient Zerg. I only need the body of that ancient Zerg."
The voice gradually became colder: "But not only do you not have the body of that person, but you even speculated whether he was killed by the ancient Zerg. If the Zerg killed him, bring the Zerg body here. Do you understand?"
The old man who bowed his head knelt down hurriedly, with cold sweat on his face. The tone of the elder was like this, and it was no longer the time for him to find excuses. He hurriedly said: "Elder, I understand. I will send someone to investigate."
Trembling and frightened, he was obviously scared.
The old man sitting on the seat stared at the old man kneeling on the ground quietly, without saying a word, which made the old man who bowed his head panic. The elder slowly raised his hand, and then hooked it. There was a click in the dark. Hearing the sound, the old man who bowed his head lowered his body and even put his face to the ground.
But gradually the clicking sound became smaller, until there was only a small sound in the darkness, and only the small clicking sound was heard coming out of the darkness, getting closer and closer.
Finally, a skeleton actually came out of the darkness.
It was called a skeleton, but it was more like a super dwarf's skeleton, or a skeleton the size of a mouse, but this skeleton was obviously a human skeleton, walking upright, with two hands and two feet, and a human head.
Can there be such a small human skeleton in the prehistoric continent?
There was a faint red light in the eyes of the skeleton, looming, and if it was not in the darkness, it would not be clear at all. The mouse-sized human skeleton slowly walked in front of the old man who bowed, and then stopped.
"I'll give you one last chance."
The elder's voice sounded: "If it weren't for the imminent change, there would be some use for you to keep you, otherwise you would have died long ago. You have to do your best to be valuable. Only valuable people can survive in troubled times, otherwise they will all turn into dust."
The old man who bowed hurriedly kowtowed and said: "I will do my best, I will do my best, and I will not let the elder down."
The elder nodded, not sure whether he agreed with the old man's words or just stretched his neck. His voice was emotionless, "This time, you have to go in person. This remains is a part of the skeleton condensed by that small tribe." The clone can detect the location of its clan members. Regardless of whether the person is dead or alive, devoured by a strange beast, or killed by the Zerg, you must bring back the relevant remains. "
"Understandable?"
The bowing old man glanced at the little skeleton beside him with his peripheral vision, and was shocked. This was what the elder had been planning. Although he was the person closest to the elder, he had never really seen the elder's plan. Now the elder will lay out the plan. In front of him, it was obvious that the plan had reached the final stage and he was no longer afraid to show it to others.
Similarly, for him who saw the plan, this was also the last chance. If he could not find the missing beast control warlock again, the searching little skeleton in front of him would be the one who died for him.
He did not dare to be careless, and gently held the little skeleton in his hand, and said repeatedly: "Elder, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task, and I will definitely not let the elder down."
The elder waved his hand and said nothing more to the old man Gong Shen. He had already said what needed to be said. The old man Gong Shen quickly retreated and disappeared into the darkness.
The candlelight flickered, and a thin old face appeared in the dark palace. If anyone who participated in the meeting hall that day was here, they would definitely find that this person was one of the old men who was in the meeting hall that day.
