Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Bluefield Taylor
As the Purple Thunder Solar Python ventured deeper, Ethan saw many psychic beasts!
These beasts' nests were right in the center of the Silver Iron Forest, in a valley, seemingly serving the king inside.
Upon entering the valley, a huge pig came into view, resembling more a mammoth!
It was covered in black fur, and only its bloated body and pig nose gave away some semblance of a pig. Its four strong legs made one wonder what kind of immense force would be needed to knock it down. Its face was also covered in black fur, making this massive creature seem like a benevolent old man.
Only the two sharp, thick tusks protruding from its mouth revealed the Demon King's edge.
[Boar Monarch Pete]
[Demon King of the Silver Iron Forest, also the guardian of the forest's birds, beasts, flowers, and trees!]
"Little snake, I know you, the snake from the beast blood fruit tree. Captured by the humans of Blackwood, you brought humans into the Silver Iron Forest to hunt psychic beasts."
The voice of Blackwood's in-law was deep and ancient.
"Sssss~"
The Purple Thunder Solar Python was clearly terrified of the Boar Monarch Pete, its massive body cowering in extreme fear.
"Don't be afraid, you haven't caused too much slaughter. With my warning, you've made the Blackwood outside the forest restrain themselves, and for that, you have my gratitude."
Hearing the Boar Monarch Pete's forgiveness, the Purple Thunder Solar Python finally relaxed.
Ethan watched the exchange between the snake and the pig.
In truth, he didn't know what the Purple Thunder Solar Python was saying, but he could guess from the Boar Monarch Pete's words and was amazed at the Demon King's wisdom—it was his first time encountering such a being.
Then, through the conversation between the Purple Thunder Solar Python and the Boar Monarch Pete, Ethan brought up the matter of Mary marrying into Blackwood.
"I am aware of this," the Boar Monarch Pete's black fur quivered, and Ethan could swear the creature seemed to smile, "Please thank Blackwood for me. They've been very kind to my daughter, and her offspring are healthy. If possible, I hope my daughter can bring her spouse and children to visit me."
"Sssss~"
The Purple Thunder Solar Python nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that the Boar Monarch Pete had a favorable impression of Blackwood, Ethan also dropped his reservations and shared the news that the seven major families were planning to attack the Silver Iron Forest.
"Hmph! Greedy and selfish humans!" The Boar Monarch Pete roared in anger. "What's this about an attack? They've been pushing the limits of the Silver Iron Forest time and again, challenging my patience. Let them come; the Silver Iron Forest will be ready for anything!"
Ethan frowned, continuing to communicate through the Purple Thunder Solar Python, expressing Blackwood's desire to have the mystical beasts of the Silver Iron Forest avoid the brunt of the conflict.
But the Boar Monarch Pete sighed deeply.
"Thanks to Blackwood for their kindness, but the Silver Iron Forest is not only a habitat for mystical beasts; it is also a sanctuary for trees and pure land. It's said among humans, 'to put down roots,' and countless mystical abilities have already taken root here. Our lives are intertwined with the Silver Iron Forest."
"Even during years of severe drought, we have sustained the vitality of the Silver Iron Forest with our lives. Now, facing another drought, everyone in the Silver Iron Forest is prepared to defend the land of myriad mystical abilities with their lives!"
Ethan also sighed deeply.
As he sent the Purple Thunder Solar Python back, his face showed a look of admiration.
Ethan understood that this was not a matter that could be easily persuaded, just like the outside world's repeated invasions of Blackwood. Blackwood would also fight to the death for their homeland.
It wasn't just about the land; it was about the emotions that generations of families had poured into this land. The purest memories, the laughter and tears, were something that could never be abandoned.
"This is something we must help with!"
Suddenly, Ethan narrowed his eyes. Aside from the Boar Monarch Pete being a relative by marriage, he also saw a huge benefit!
The Boar Monarch Pete's high regard for Blackwood was evident.
If Blackwood helped the Boar Monarch Pete through this difficult time, then Blackwood would essentially have the Boar Monarch Pete as an ally by marriage.
At the same time.
The previous problem of not being able to mine deep into the Silver Iron Forest would be resolved, and the Silver Iron Forest would become Blackwood's backyard, which was also more suitable for Blackwood's cultivation of mystical beasts!
As for the risks?
"Hahaha, when has Blackwood not faced risks over the years?" Nathan said with a laugh after sharing his plans through the Purple Thunder Solar Python, "The forebearer is right, with so many benefits, how could my Blackwood not help our in-laws?"
"Thank you, Forebearer, thank you, father!" Mary cried with joy.
In the days that followed, Blackwood was busy dealing with the affairs of the Silver Iron Forest and was also developing vigorously.
Ethan was also pondering solutions.
And Julian, that kid, after becoming an Emerging Ability, also gave Ethan a bit of a surprise.
[Your descendant Lucas, after establishing the Black Blood Hall, trained 50 Foundational Energy warriors!]
[After years of training, they have completely mastered the 'Spear Forest Formation'!]
Spear Forest Formation.
That was the formation used by Garcia during the attack on Forest Town. They held long spears, using the spears as a formation, their mystical abilities connected, possessing great lethal power!
In one wave.
Nearly eighty percent of Blackwood's hundred mystical beasts died.
This shows the formidable power of the spear formation!
At that moment.
On the martial arts field of Gratitude Village, fifty young men dressed in black iron beast blood suits, all equipped with mystical ability gear including long bows, quivers, long spears, and waist-mounted long knives, were holding long spears and throwing them towards the distance.
"Whoosh!"
As the sound of tearing through the air rose, those long spears carrying mystical abilities formed a net in the sky!
"50 people are this powerful?" Ethan slightly opened his mouth in awe, "If it were 500 people, or even 5000, what about Bluefield Taylor..."
Thinking this, Ethan narrowed his eyes.
"Bluefield Taylor, huh? You're asking for it!"
He suddenly had a bold idea in his mind. Having already dominated Forest Town, dominating another town like Bluefield wasn't really a big deal.
If they could swallow the entire Tranquil County, that would be even better.
