After all, the number of tribe members is decreasing, and we can only be tolerant against our will. I wonder if these guys are so perfunctory about the birth of the next generation in order to consolidate their irreplaceable position. "
"..."
Nancy stared at Chief Long Yan with a serious expression, and understood the hidden meaning behind her words.
On the surface, these were just her mumblings as the clan leader, but in fact, they revealed a lot of her current attitudes - it was difficult for her to intervene effectively.
It’s not that we don’t want to manage it, but it’s difficult to manage it effectively.
One side of the tribe was determined to fight the other, and Phoenix, as the tribe leader, had fewer and fewer means of punishment.
They were put under house arrest and given warnings. At worst, they would just continue fighting after the house arrest was over.
And it is impossible for Phoenix to kill or expel one party before the result of the dispute is known. The tribesmen are too "valuable" and cannot withstand several sanctions.
It is not feasible to punish the winning party after the result of the internal fighting comes out. Wouldn't that be equivalent to losing two waves of tribesmen?
Phoenix's position as the tribe leader is now very passive, with obvious weaknesses. She has to consider the entire tribe, but she has fewer means to manage the tribe.
Those tribesmen who wanted to fight among themselves almost saw through her dilemma. As long as they didn't direct their attacks on the tribe leader, she wouldn't be able to do anything to them.
This is also the reason why Chief Phoenix has been less and less involved in tribal affairs in recent years.
Out of sight, out of mind. It would be great if someone could come and be the successor.
Seeing that Nancy understood, the Lolita tribe leader stood up from her seat, walked to her side, stood on tiptoe, patted Nancy on the shoulder, and encouraged helplessly:
"I can't help either side, but I can't kill my entire clan, can I?
In a few years, the distinctions between "Red Devil", "Black Ice" and "Purple Poison" will disappear sooner or later, and the entire Dragonborn can only be integrated together, so that those self-important idiots can be restrained and managed.
How many years do you think I have been troubled by these things? "
Nancy felt a heavy weight on her shoulders: "Even if these guys want to fight, at least they should wait for Weilin to come back and fight face to face..."
But to put it bluntly, some of the Dragonborn dared to act rashly while Weilin was away.
"I heard that Losta, the Black Ice Dragonborn, subdued the mischievous Afaline? Such a vibrant family is really enviable.
Well, I have to go and discuss the matter of the Tower of Babel. I guess those idiots will do more stupid things when they see me leaving. Come on, little Nancy!"
After leaving these words, Phoenix took the young maid's hand and left the room.
......
Boom——
On the third day after Chief Phoenix left Longyan City, a deafening explosion alarmed all living creatures within a hundred miles.
Even the most stable ground lizard was so frightened that it shrank its head and imitated the ostrich.
An accident occurred on the ship transporting the Fire Crystal Ore. The energy shock caused by the explosion turned the port into ruins in an instant.
Nancy rushed to the area immediately, her eyes widened, her mood sinking to the bottom:
"Port... This is the coordinate point where Weilin set up the homing beacon!"
Chapter 75: Bad Mom's Dog Training
"Excuse me, what is a homing beacon?"
A strange woman's voice came, and Nancy turned to look at the person who was chatting her up.
This is a woman with purple hair. Her clothing style is not conspicuous, but simple and capable. She has a gentle smile on her face.
The smile with narrowed eyes is charming, but there is also a hint of danger.
Nancy frowned. She had no interest in being a lecturer for just anyone. Besides, this sudden incident could not be explained by coincidence.
Chief Phoenix was right. After she went out to discuss the challenge to the Tower of Babel, the idiots in the family could no longer hold back.
They did it so thoroughly and suddenly that they would cut off Weilin's possibility of returning!
"Sorry, you can go to the municipal library to ask for help. I have something urgent to deal with. Excuse me!"
Nancy left without looking back and ran quickly towards the Familiar Post Office.
She simply described the situation on a piece of letter and asked her servant to pass the message to the border of the Dead Sea to inform Chu Yan.
He may not be able to do anything, but as long as he can pass the message to Losta, the Black Ice Dragonborn, things may still turn around.
After confirming that the familiar had set off, Nancy returned to the mansion immediately, found the projection magic stone and contacted Chu Yan.
Not
123
However, the projection magic stone cannot function normally, and the projection magic here is blocked by external media!
"I guessed there would be some arrangements here. Luckily I went to the Familiar Post Office before coming back."
Nancy murmured, not knowing whether she should be thankful for this foresight.
Since the projection magic has been blocked, it means someone has been waiting here.
boom!
The door was broken open, and several people walked into the room with ill intentions. The man in the lead pulled a chair and sat down.
This man's name is Ha An, the son of an elder in the Longyan family. He is of average strength and is only B-level in his middle age. Although his talent is not outstanding, he has been training outside for many years and can actually exert considerable combat power. His dragon bloodline is extremely high, and it is outrageous that a B-level dragon can be used as an ordinary A-level human.
The servants behind him were not just lackeys for show, but were well-known in the area for their strength.
Haan tossed the saber in his hand and said:
"Ms. Nancy, we thought you would go to the workshop first to try to contact Weilin, but you came back to look for the Philosopher's Stone. This thing can't contact Weilin."
Weilin's location is too far away, and we can only rely on the facilities of the magic workshop and build high-standard projection magic to contact her.
Haan didn't think that Nancy, as a former member of the Sanctuary of Discipline, would make such a low-level mistake.
"Could it be that he wants to contact the lucky boy who just passed the family trial? That boy shouldn't be able to intervene in such matters, right?"
Haan's attendant said: "Lord Haan, you are too cautious. This should be to inform Chu Yan to escape quickly."
Ha An suddenly realized and patted his head: "Indeed, I was too picky and scared myself."
Nancy's face was cold: "Are you afraid that the little guy will run away and take revenge on you when he grows up?"
Haan was not easily provoked and laughed out loud:
“To be honest, I’m not afraid, but there’s no need to cause trouble for myself. Although Baron Pi Ge is a dog raised by my father, you still have to look at the owner before beating a dog.
Chu Yan not only killed the dog, but also occupied the doghouse on the border of the Dead Sea. This is very ignorant!
Unfortunately, my father said that we must concentrate on doing big things and not distract ourselves. I have to wait until I am sure that Weilin really cannot come back and is trapped to death overseas before I go to meet Chu Yan. "
The attendant behind him said to Nancy:
"Ms. Nancy, everything you do now is in vain. The port has been destroyed. Just stay here for a few days and we will release you later."
Apparently, they didn't want to arm wrestle with Nancy either.
The skills of the Sanctuary of Discipline are specifically designed to kill magicians.
Nancy is no match for four people with her own fists, and is doomed to lose in the end, but she has the ability to take away a "lucky person" at random. If she performs bravely, she might be able to take away two. No one really wants to take this risk.
What they wanted was to trap Nancy for a while and prevent any potential unexpected factors from fermenting.
Nancy's expression was stern and she was anxious inside. The other party came prepared and it would be difficult for her to escape unscathed.
If she really fights her way out here, what should she do next? Is there anything she can do for Weilin?
Just as Nancy was trying hard to think of a way out of the impasse, Haan and his group suddenly fell down, their bodies out of control, and they knelt on the ground.
"What... is going on...?!"
These people were still conscious, but they had no idea what was happening. They couldn't even utter complete syllables and could only stare with their eyes open, wondering about what was happening to them.
At the door, a woman walked in, stepping in front of the kneeling person with her high heels. In her hands, she held several dark magic chains, and the other ends of the chains were connected to the body of the kneeling person, as if she was leading a few dogs.
Nancy was stunned.
The purple-haired woman who walked in was the one who had chatted with her at the harbor earlier.
Feeling the unique magical energy flowing from the woman's hands, Nancy confirmed doubtfully:
"You are... the Purple Poison Dragonborn?"
The beautiful and charming purple-haired woman still had a gentle and approachable smile on her face. She nodded gently:
"Yes, let me introduce myself. My name is Tiffany. Now do you have a moment to explain to me what a homing beacon is?"
Nancy was surprised by this person's appearance, but she didn't say anything and immediately answered her confusion:
"Weilin's voyage was far from the mainland, and the sea was endless without any reference points. If it weren't for the homing beacon set up in the port, she would have lost her way and was completely lost in the void sea, and was eaten by the monsters on the sea.
The most troublesome thing is the return approval..."
"What is this? Is it so troublesome to go sailing?" These were areas Tiffany had never been exposed to, and there was no ocean in the area where she had been active before.
"This is a law. If you stay away from the mainland for a long time, you will lose the recognition of the mainland and be rejected by the mainland. This is regarded as a natural protective mechanism of the mainland to reject foreign creatures. Otherwise, all coasts will be as bad as the border of the Dead Sea, with powerful monsters appearing from time to time.
Weilin's return time is arranged according to this rule. She has no time to wait for the return beacon to be rebuilt. It's too late!"
If the time exceeds, Weilin's fleet will lose the recognition of the mainland and be completely regarded as alien creatures.
Tiffany finally realized the seriousness of the situation and said in embarrassment:
124
"Does this mean we need to discuss the issue of custody in advance?"
The only solution Nancy can think of now is to let Chu Yan contact Losta. The Black Ice Dragon has a close relationship with Noah College.
That group of scholars might have a solution!
At this time, Haan broke free from the restraints, his body turned half dragon, his size became larger, dragon scales protruded, and flames came out of his nostrils.
"I say, have you two women forgotten me?"
Haan flicked his claws, cutting off Tiffany's hold on the servant.
But Tiffany just shrugged and chuckled without changing her expression:
"Isa, come out. You will help me deal with these annoying bugs in your family, right?"
Chapter 76: A Bad Woman
Outside the door, a splendid and dashing female knight in light clothing appeared, her expression somewhat conflicted and heavy.
She also rushed out after hearing the explosion in the port. She unexpectedly discovered that Tiffany was acting alone, so she secretly followed her and saw the battle taking place there.
During the time that Isa knew and interacted with Tiffany, she had no idea that Tiffany had such fighting power. She always thought that Tiffany was just a weak woman with a little magic!
The extraordinary strength that Tiffany suddenly displayed at this moment meant that her previous contact with him was for some purpose.
Right now, Haan, whom Tiffany wants her to deal with, is even a member of Isha's own faction and the son of an elder of the tribe!
Is this for her to make a decision?
After becoming half-dragon, Haan was nearly three meters tall and had a strong and sturdy body, but he was secretly afraid of Isa.
The reason is simple. Isa's strength can earn her respect and closeness from the church, and she is often invited to fight, but Haan rarely has such an opportunity. This is enough to show the huge gap in strength.
"Cousin Isa, it turns out that this Purple Poison Dragonborn is the spy you brought into the territory. It's normal to make mistakes occasionally. Subduing them and making amends is not a big mistake!
You wouldn't help outsiders to deal with your own people and companions, would you?"
The key to determining the direction of the battle seemed to be in Isa's hands.
But Tiffany still maintained a faint smile on her face. She was looking forward to and curious about the outcome, but she was not worried or nervous at all. She was not afraid that Isa would "turn over a new leaf" and turn to her original camp.
Nancy was ready to fight by now. She watched the purple-haired woman's reaction and guessed the source of her calmness.
Or maybe she didn't care at all that Isa was on the opposite side, and was confident that she could defeat Isa even if a fight really broke out.
Or, she had already exerted control over Isa, and Isa had no chance to attack her at all, and now she just wanted to see Isa's reaction.
No matter which possibility it is, it is enough to show that Tiffany's character is so bad that it cannot be worse.
"Isha, Haan and his son are planning to attack your former benefactor Weilin. Among them are the guys who left a shadow on you back then. You have already distanced yourself from them, so why do you have to put yourself in a difficult position?
These guys have such pitiful little brains that they only want to fight among themselves, ignoring the overall plan for the Tower of Babel. Before the door to the tower is even opened, they are already thinking about excluding their own people."
