Rieslert Tribal Nation: A Change of National Regimes

Evileye held the ancient animal hide scroll, his arm suddenly trembling, almost dropping it. This should not happen to a powerful being who has reached the level of a "Demon Gods".

visible.

Evileye deeply shaken at that moment.

"A ritual that can elevate Tier Magic!" Evileye gripped the animal hide scroll tightly, his voice rising involuntarily, "Lord Dragon Lords King!"

"This, this isn't a joke?"

"Do you think I would joke about something like this, Evileye?" Tang Zheng's calm voice came from behind.

Evileye this calm state of mind.

A "magical ritual" that can unleash Tier Magic higher than oneself is undoubtedly valuable and powerful!

This is especially true for Magic Caster have mastered Tier Magic.

Like [Corpus of the Abyss], it is said that Undead who can use Eighth-Tier Magic can obtain this magical ritual, and it is likely that they can truly unleash the power of Tenth-Tier Magic.

That is the power and domain of "God"!

Evileye's breathing became rapid. He glanced cautiously at the sky, his eyes filled with even greater awe and solemnity.

She hadn't forgotten that the Crimson Dragon Lord also possessed the power of Eighth-Tier Magic!

Evileye increasingly convinced.

The fact that the members of "Blue Roses" were able to survive from the enemy's clutches is entirely an act of mercy.

perhaps...

A certain desire ignited within Evileye: that with the other party's help, she could truly find the culprit who destroyed the Inveria Kingdom.

As the last member of the Royal Family, carrying everyone's hopes and will—to complete the revenge!

Having experienced the hopes, disappointments, and confusion of trying to save everyone, over the long years, this "helplessness" has become a hidden wound and memory deep within the heart, one that cannot be touched.

At this very moment!

Evileye's inner confusion gradually dissipated, she found the thing she ultimately wanted to do.

Even if it costs me my life!

"Your Majesty the Dragon Lords."

Evileye looked away from the animal skin scroll, and even through the mask, the heartache in her voice was palpable.

"Is using the power of this magical ritual as a bargaining chip too precious?"

to be honest,

Even Iverai herself was somewhat reluctant to part with it.

To hand over information whose authenticity is unknown is already an extravagance... no, even those two words cannot describe it.

Tang Zheng was somewhat surprised by Evileye's response, a hint of astonishment appearing on his face.

Evileye's words were undoubtedly made from his perspective, which shows that Evileye had already placed him in the position of a comrade.

That's a good thing, too.

"Oh, Evileye."

"Using this ceremony so easily as a bargaining chip, have you ever considered another possibility?" Tang Zheng joked.

"Does the Dragon Lords King mean... there's a problem with the ritual?" Evileye, looking at the animal skin scroll in his hand.

She wasn't skilled in magical rituals; she had tried them before but lacked the talent. However, she knew one thing for sure: the setup of a magical ritual couldn't be flawed in the slightest.

"No, Evileye."

Tang Zheng shook his head, his tone calm. "I wouldn't stoop to tampering with such things. On the contrary, the ritual is not only not a problem, it's not even difficult to learn."

This is not the original version of the Lizardman Clan.

If it's the original version, many of the terms used are in the exclusive language of the Lizardman Clan. Without Lizardman Priest to guide you, it would be difficult to fully understand them.

Tang Zheng believed in the research abilities of those Undead with the [Corpus of the Abyss], and that he could master it with enough time.

But how long that will take is uncertain!

Tang Zheng didn't have time for them.

"Well, uh..." Evileye increasingly puzzled and confused.

"A ritual is a ritual, but whether it can be used effectively is another matter."

Tang Zheng didn't mind explaining it to her, and even hoped that Evileye also master this ritual.

"This magical ritual can indeed raise a spellcaster's Tier Magic, but the spellcaster must master the Magic Reinforcement technique of ' Magic Boost '."

"Otherwise, even if you master the ritual, you won't be able to utilize it effectively."

Upon hearing this,

"I understand, Dragon Lords Majesty."

Only now Evileye fully understand, his tone filled with admiration. "This ritual was merely to prove to the [Corpus of the Abyss] that we were not lying."

"Once they witness this magical ritual, the [Corpus of the Abyss] will surely seek our help, and then we can seize the initiative."

Your wisdom puts me to shame.

Evileye, recalling his earlier feelings of heartache and doubt, lowered his head slightly.

"No arrangement is absolute, Evileye." Tang Zheng let out a dignified chuckle:

"If any of the Undead gains mastery of ' Magic Boost ' beforehand, then this plan cannot be implemented."

Evileye's heart tightened; he too had considered this possibility.

Tang Zheng continued calmly, "However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing for us. Strengthening the [Corpus of the Abyss] will only intensify their desire to rebel against that True Dragon Lord."

"We can also use this opportunity to observe whether the True Dragon Lord hidden in the shadows is truly the culprit behind the destruction of the Inveria Kingdom."

"In short, with this precious ritual, you too can investigate what you want to know from within the [Corpus of the Abyss]."

Hearing these words, Evileye was deeply moved; the Crimson Dragon Lord before her did not treat her as a tool.

"Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty the Dragon Lords."

Evileye over and bowed.

"We're partners, aren't we?" Tang Zheng's voice was authoritative yet tinged with a light laugh. "As Undead, you possess strength far exceeding that of ordinary people, yet you can coexist peacefully with the living."

"This talent and willpower are what make it so precious."

A sudden compliment.

The paleness behind Evileye's mask and the unnatural flush on her cheeks made her look even more pale.

kindness?

suddenly.

An image of a man in a white Priest's robe flashed through Evileye's mind—Tang, the leader of "Free Will."

A young man who left a deep impression on him.

Thinking back to the battle that took place in the court of the Kingdom of Ri Yestize.

If she remembered correctly, Tang seemed to possess the ability of "Magic Boost," and if she gave this ritual to him, it should be able to unleash even greater power!

Evileye opened his mouth, but ultimately chose not to tell the Crimson Dragon Lord about this.

"Since there are still three days left..."

"You can also learn this magical ritual. If you can master it, I wouldn't mind teaching you the Magic Reinforcement technique of ' Magic Boost '."

Tang Zheng spoke rather casually, expressing his hope that Evileye could take control.

By this means!

Spreading through the hands of others to increase human power, the "Magic Boost Ritual" is much simpler than the more costly and demanding "Great Ritual."

"Ah... can I learn too?"

Evileye out in surprise, speaking with a mixture of excitement and uncertainty.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye!

Evileye indeed lacked the talent to set up rituals; even with Tang Zheng's explanation, he could barely understand how the rituals worked.

It's not important if you can't fully "understand" it, as long as you can set up the ceremony, that's enough, but it will still take some time.

Encountering the [Corpus of the Abyss] once again.

Having learned from their first experience, both Evileye and "Abyss" Banezeri were noticeably less wary this time.

Lower Wind Month.

June 15th.

Ten days have passed since the first contact with the [Corpus of the Abyss].

[Experience Bar: 4545w/188w]

--The "Rieslert" tribal kingdom.

This is a region located further southwest than the "Inveria Kingdom" on the Northwestern Continent where humans reside.

It is a vast, boundless grassland.

The entire region shows almost no obvious signs of civilization; instead, it is composed of a dozen or so nomadic Demi-Human Species.

The entire tribal kingdom was basically divided into two Demi-Human Species.

One was the powerful Lionman, and the other was the Gnoll race, which was dependent on the Gnoll race.

Night fell.

A pale crescent moon hung high in the sky, with sparse starlight twinkling faintly.

On this vast and empty dark grassland, the starry sky is the only faint point of light.

certainly.

For the Demi-Human Species, the ability of "Night Vision" is a gift, and its impact on vision is not significant in such a dark environment.

Whew~

A cold, damp wind blew by.

The rustling sound of insects gnawing at the weeds echoed across the grass in the night.

Tang Zheng had now reverted to his human form, wearing a black cloak, and was sitting on the corpse of a Gnoll, taking out a soft piece of white bread from his Item Box.

In front of him stood a Gnoll, affected by the "Charm Species: All".

After obtaining more detailed information about the "Sanctuary", he immediately went to this area called the "Rieslert" tribal kingdom.

A completely dark environment.

It doesn't affect Tang Zheng's vision. As Human Species, he naturally doesn't have this ability, but with the passive ability of being a "Dragonic Overlord," he has indirectly gained the ability of "Night Vision."

"This place is really big."

Tang Zheng took a few bites of white bread and swallowed them, then looked out at the vast grassland stretching into the distance and began to complain.

He has investigated two tribes and has a basic understanding of this tribal region.

The entire grassland is larger than the "Baharuth Empire" and the "Ry-Yesteje Kingdom" combined.

This land, however, is home to only a dozen or so nomadic Lionman, making investigation quite troublesome.

Not knowing their location, even with Teleportation magic, they couldn't Teleportation there directly, so they captured a few Gnoll to lead the way.

"How many people are there in your entire tribal kingdom?" Tang Zheng asked casually while taking a bite of white bread.

"Large, approximately 500,000 people." The Gnoll revealed some sharp, blackened teeth, opening his mouth uncertainly in response.

A fishy smell wafted from my mouth and into the air, only to be instantly dispersed by the cold wind.

The Gnoll before me had a long, narrow wolf-like mouth, cloudy yellow eyes, a head that resembled a dog's, and a slender, thin body, though his legs were quite strong.

They are probably Demi-Human Species suited for running and biting.

"Such a small population."

Tang Zheng was startled and looked up in surprise.

This grassland is so vast, and the environment doesn't seem harsh, considering that the combined population of the empire and the Kingdom is close to 20 million.

"The grasslands are not suitable for cultivation. Although many grasses grow on the land, the tribes mainly eat meat."

"The temperature on the grassland is extremely high during the day and very cold at night, leading to frequent conflicts between different tribes."

This Gnoll was probably one of the more learned types, and he offered a somewhat understandable explanation.

Tang Zheng nodded almost imperceptibly, gaining a deeper understanding of the entire "Rieslert" tribal kingdom.

This is a country where nomadic life is the primary mode of living!

The form of government was a tribal chieftainship, with the tribal chiefs of each tribe all belonging to a tribal state led by a "king".

He was not interested in this system.

However, the intelligence gathered during this period made Tang Zheng frown slightly.

The information about [Corpus of the Abyss] is clearly several versions behind. This vast grassland should have been ruled by a human nation.

It's probably a human nation of the "Inveria Kingdom" type, a "Human Species (Rainbow-Eyed People)".

The information provided by [Corpus of the Abyss] regarding the history of this country is limited; it's the only information Tang Zheng can deduce.

It should be the kingdom that was descended upon or ruled by that "Buddha God" Player.

The problem is!

This country has been destroyed and then occupied by another country, but it is definitely not the "Rieslert" tribal state before us.

This indicates that the kingdom occupied by the "Buddha God" Player was also destroyed, and the current tribal kingdom is at least the third version.

Tang Zheng felt a headache coming on just thinking about this.

This region has experienced at least three changes of kingdoms, so historical information and other data about the country where the "Buddha God" Player is located have most likely been lost to history.

"The only thing we can confirm right now is that the [Two-Realm Mandala], this World Item, should be located on this vast grassland, but its exact location is impossible to determine."

Tang Zheng looked up at the vast grassland, and his eyelids twitched.

How far is it from the territory of your "king's" tribe?

Tang Zheng swallowed all the white bread in his hand. Feeling something in his stomach, he asked the Werewolf in front of him:

I need more accurate information.

The tribe to which the "king" belonged was the most powerful on this vast grassland, and historical records about the past can probably only be found from this tribe.

"It's about a 10-day journey."

The Gnoll, smelling the sweet aroma of white bread in the air, couldn't help but drool even under the influence of the allure, their mouths watering and dripping down their blackened teeth.

This Gnoll was clearly unable to provide an accurate distance, and could only respond with vague terms like the number of days.

Tang Zheng glanced at the other person with some disdain, stood up, grabbed the other person by the neck, and easily lifted them up with one hand.

"Ninjutsu: Concealment"

"Flight"

Tang Zheng, carrying the Gnoll, disappeared from the spot, then took to the air and flew swiftly in the direction the other party had pointed.
