Chapter 527: Chapter 112: Provoking Dust and Disputes_5

"When will the Bat-human betrayers make good on our agreement?" Liu Zhenhan felt a little uneasy.

"The Shalba family has ascended to the duke’s position, but they’ve suffered two defeats. The tornado mercenaries who fled back to Dorott have spread the story of Feilengcui widely. The two human empires, Saint Francisco and Pompei, were reportedly both very shocked. The Holy Vatican however seemed oddly calm, which is not a good thing. Saint Paul Church was never a peaceful faction. There is calm before the storm." Lord Mourinho smiled and said,"So, to help share your pressure, our temple will send a Staff Shaman to join you on the Donau Wasteland."

"But hasn’t the Staff Shaman already received his fief? Granting another one isn’t customary, right?" Liu Zhenhan’s face still bore the innocent expression of a young boy.

"This time, in fact, I’ve got some earth-shattering good news that even Master Qi Dan and Xi Er were kept in the dark about. Now it’s time to reveal the answer..." The words of the High Priest made everyone perk up their ears.

"...Just a few days ago, in the Sunset Swamp in our southwestern border guarded by the Swan Tribe, my Griffin Knights discovered a returning tribe of Medusa Snake-men during their routine patrol. This is a tribe of three thousand members, all on their last legs, emaciated and exhausted." The voice of Lord Mourinho carried notes of irrepressible excitement and trembling: "This tribe of Medusas, after a long journey crossing thousands of miles of the Sunset Swamp, has returned home, just like the Worm People Beamon!"

"Praise the gods!" the Staff Shamans exclaimed.

The Snake-woman tutor was evidently taken aback, a visible shock and loss of composure that hit Liu Zhenhan like a heavy hammer.

"Really? Father?" Gortani excitedly hugged her father’s neck, her cute face blushing with excitement.

Both Helen and Liu Zhenhan embraced each other, warmly celebrating this exciting piece of news.

Ning Yu’s heart tightened. From the corner of her eye, she saw Richard’s muscles convulsively twitching as he turned away, distorting his face into an horrible grimace.

This good news quickly spread, and wave upon wave of cheering erupted. This was fantastic news! To have two vanished races reappear in the kingdom’s population – nothing but a miracle could describe it.

The two Fairy Dragons and Ao Pang seemed very happy too, but their eyes briefly flickered with complexity.

"This returning Medusa tribe originally had thirty thousand members, but the perilous swamps, magical beasts, harsh weather, cold and starvation claimed the lives of most of them..." The Swan High Priest stared at Liu Zhenhan, slowly continuing, "In the end, only the fittest adult men and women survived. The elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled all fell on their long journey home."

"God of War above!" The Staff Shamans halted their lively discussion, a visible sadness enveloping their faces.

"Thirty thousand people... oh..." Liu Zhenhan, stupefied, muttered this number over and over again.

"Among them, only the strongest warriors and shamans survived, especially their chieftain Mr. Benitez. After assessment by our south-western temple, he easily earned the right to become a Staff Shaman. For a monster pet, he has a very rare Nemie Giant Lion, which is actually in the ranks of a Shaman Wei An. As the assessor this time, I do not have the authority to confer the title of Shaman Wei An, but I do have the power to appoint a Staff Shaman." Lord Mourinho slowly cut a piece of "bamboo rice cake" with his fork, then elegantly and gracefully put it in his mouth before continuing: "After my selection, among these three thousand Medusas, there were nine qualified Soul Shamans, five War Shamans, three Staff Shamans. The current chieftain, Mr. Benitez, and their elder, Mr. Horielle, even reached the level of Shaman Wei An. Oh, I forgot to mention, the monster pet of Elder Horielle is an incredibly powerful Liwu Bird. The rest of the Medusas are excellent warriors. It is said that even the outstanding male warriors among them can kill a seven-foot adult crocodile and a five-hundred-pound swamp-black tortoise barehanded."

Old Liu could only nod in response, his face filled with envy, while chaos reigned in his heart.

The Nemie Giant Lion is an amphibious prehistoric lion species and a giant beast. They can be sighted in the ocean and some large-deep lakes, as well as in deep woods. The Nemie Giant Lion, also a top-level magical beast transitioning between the ultra-order and high-order, is a rare plant-based magical beast. The modern gigantic sea lions are their subspecies descendants. The Liwu Bird, also known as the Vermilion Bird, is a top-level frost magical beast, rare in the Aegean Continent. It is said that the Liwu Vermilion Bird originates from the Gold Coast Continent on another world. Chasing after their favored silver merlins, they would fly from that continent to the sea on the Aegean Continent. It is said that this bird touches the ground only twice in its life - once when it is born, and once when it dies. Interestingly, like the Cormorant, it can swim and stay underwater for a good while.

"Such formidable strength..." Helen expressed her astonishment and admiration.
