Chapter 240: The Enemy of the Enemy is a Friend
Chapter 235 – An Enemy’s Enemy is a Friend
“It’s not that simple, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, since you don’t want to face the Voodoo Clan, then just go support the Mountain Mother Clan.” Owen said blandly.
Tooth and the three of them looked at each other face to face and realized that this was indeed the best way at the moment.
The mountains were the only place for the beast sub-humans to survive, there was no way to retreat, but they could definitely not defeat the Voodoo Clan, otherwise they would not have hidden in the mountains, relying on the low temperature and low-oxygen environment to avoid the lizardmen’s large-scale invasion.
The problem is that the mountain mother’s aggression is not strong, and have to face the voodoo clan’s step by step, to the mountains to take a laissez-faire attitude, but in exchange for the voodoo clan like blood sacrifice, they are afraid of hiding into the ground will be caught out of the bloodletting.
So now they can only choose to cooperate with the relatively moderate Mountain Mother Clan and fight against the invasion of the Voodoo Clan together, as for the post-war issues, they still have to wait until they can survive.
This matter has little to do with Tooth and the rest of the adventurers, except that if the Valley Town is occupied by the Voodoo Clan, they are afraid that they won’t want to come back, and they don’t dare to come back, so that’s why they are so active.
The war between the two clans has disrupted the plans of the adventurers who came here specifically, even those merchants who want money but not their lives have started to consider whether to run away in advance, so as not to earn money, but also lost their lives.
Owen is also considering what to do next, as for the adventure, there is no hurry, not to mention that now the two clans under the mountain each sent a lot of raptor riders and lizardmen hunters to kill each other, this time to go down the mountain is purely looking for death, so with the teeth of the three busy to send a letter to the time, he contacted through the love of the children on the Maya, so that she can provide a plan.
Although the mystery and ability of his master has already been understood, but directly run to the other world to occupy the territory, but also intends to participate in the war of the two major indigenous forces, is still a little beyond Maya’s ability to withstand.
However, these years of having full control over the development of the territory had allowed Maya to grow quite a bit, and with the assistance of the Flame Queen, she quickly came up with a preliminary plan.
Because of the lack of too much information, the program provided by Maya was simple, because the simpler it was, the less likely it was to go wrong.
That was to form a regiment of beast subhumans and then participate as mercenaries in the battles between the two clans, doing arms trading on the side.
Owen stroked his chin, thinking that it was a good idea, but now that he didn’t have the right manpower under him, he alone couldn’t sustain this plan.
In fact, manpower is not a big problem, Hydra Island and the underground ruins have teleportation portals, so a group of manpower can be sent over at any time.
The problem is that the number of teleportation portals is limited, and because of design flaws, it needs to consume Owen’s traveling energy to maintain the space channel, so it’s impossible to teleport without any limitations.
After half a day’s consideration, Owen finally decided to teleport his men from the original world, because Hydra Island really didn’t have any outstanding men, so even though teleporting from the same world consumed less, Owen still chose to teleport some powerful men from the original world.
As a choice, Owen began to consider who to send over.
Teleportation wasn’t costless. Besides durability and carrying capacity, energy consumption had to be taken into account.
The most common way to teleport is to use magic power from the outside world, but it takes time to accumulate, so it can only be used periodically, such as the teleportation array in the town of Ghost Valley.
This method is not very convenient, so you can also use magic stones or your own magic to start, convenient and quick, is that the farther the distance the greater the consumption, the general public really can not afford to use.
Out of this consideration, Owen built the teleportation portal on the third floor of the underground ruins, directly connecting to the magic well of the underground city, obtaining a constant flow of magic power, which theoretically could be opened for a long time and teleport a large number of people.
In reality, it was not feasible, especially for cross-border teleportation. The longer the spatial channel was maintained, the more variables there were, and if there was a slight change, there was no telling where they would be transported to, and it wasn’t impossible for them to be thrown into the void as dry corpses.
Besides, both the teleportation array and the teleportation gate have a carrying capacity, and it is easy to be overloaded if they are opened for a long time, and overloading is not something that can be done by changing the fuse.
Therefore, space teleportation must be as short as possible, just like a bullet.
After arranging the candidates, Owen went to the teleportation array, intending to open the spatial passageway, only to realize that he needed to queue up, as many outsiders were busy returning to their own worlds at the moment.
This was a normal reaction, they were here for adventure and fortune, and did not intend to get involved in a war.
Of course, there were also some who chose to stay behind, as the mayor of Spectral Valley Town had issued a rewarding quest, and riches were everywhere.
Owen saw the mayor of the valley town for the first time, but he didn’t expect it to be a snake-haired demoness, apparently the other party was also an outsider, but for some reason she chose to stay here and became the mayor of the town.
Snake-haired banshee was a very rare magical creature, coupled with a higher intelligence than humans, it was the object that adventurers would least want to mess with, especially the snake-haired banshee mayor in front of him, the degree of growth was quite high, even if her eyes were wrapped in rune cloth, there was still a faint gray light revealed, making anyone who faced her feel that their body would gradually become stiff.
This kind of feeling could definitely not be called good, no wonder the other party was usually invisible, and no wonder the other party was able to become the mayor of the Valley of the Ghosts Town as an outsider, because she this had this strength.
Owen watched with great interest as the other party was giving a speech about defending her home, defending her own interests and so on, and trying to leave the outsiders behind to contribute to the town.
The effect of the words was average, but the payment the other party took out was really heartwarming.
The mystery of this world is indeed not high, but it does not mean that this is a barren place, on the contrary, this continent produces precious resources such as secret silver, fine gold, magic crystals, and there are even people who have found Star Iron, a kind of treasure that makes the demigods all red in the eyes.
Former Devil Blood Maggie Angie once told Owen that she suspected that this world was originally a fragment of some higher world after it was shattered, otherwise it would be impossible to produce resources of this quality, and that this mangled continent buried a deeper secret, the evidence of which was the fragment of the authority of the God of Reality and Illusion.
These secrets were still too far away from Owen, unless the Mother of Dragons grew up.
When the crowd dispersed, Owen activated the teleportation array and locked the teleportation portal located in the underground ruins, as the magic power was consumed, Maya, Emmy, twenty witch hunters and ten extreme warriors walked out of the teleportation array.
Owen’s traversal energy was mostly consumed, and the magic well in the underground ruins needed time to calm down and build up its magic power.
In other words, in a short period of time, Owen had no reinforcements.
“Nice town, if the information is true, it does have value for cooperation.” Maya made an assessment of the town of Ghost Valley as soon as she came out, and the results were not bad.
“Then let’s go talk to the town mayor, if we have each other’s help, our operation will go much smoother.” Owen didn’t intend to participate in the war between the two clans with his own strength, borrowing power was the most cost-effective, the town mayor-sama didn’t want to lose his town either, right?
