It took all the determination Dean McKenzie had not to destroy this statue!
“I can’t, I can’t, I can’t. I’ve to hold it in. If I lash out now, it’ll expose me instantly!”
Seemingly, being exposed wouldn’t be a big issue.
Given the current situation, Dean McKenzie is still the spiritual leader of the City of Swiftwind.
But Dean doesn’t want to return in this manner.
“What will people think of me? What do I look like now?
In their eyes, don’t I look like a freeloader who’s completely dependent on the Strong Grass?”
Of course, Dean has nothing against sponging. Let’s be real, who would say no to some freebies?!
If this freebie is enticingly delicious, Dean would be more than willing to accept it.
But the problem is, the Strong Grass…wait, no – David, is still very much in Dean’s sight.
That formidable figure is still vivid in his mind.
Freebies should be easy and sweet, but Dean doesn’t find this one particularly appetizing.
That’s why Dean believes he cannot return as a good-for-nothing freeloader!
Besides, Dean wants to make a significant impact upon his return, like the comeback of a ruler!
Holding this thought, Dean asks Old Eight to take action.
With the help of Old Eight, Dean manages to gather all the necessary information about the City of Swiftwind in one day.
He now understands the current state of affairs in the City of Swiftwind.
Dean discovers that the City of Swiftwind is currently doing quite well. It has a cautious yet steady progression on the Golden Plain. There don’t appear to be any enemies, and in fact, they have quite a few good relationships with some powers in the Golden Plain.
Don’t even get me started on the back end. The Goblin, Dogman, and Dwarves tribes are blending very well together.
Observing this, Dean can’t help but feel less than thrilled.
If they’re doing so well even without any enemies, how is Dean supposed to make his grand return?
“Who the hell taught her to do so well?
Oh wait, I guess it was me!”
Dean finds, to his amusement, that the current progress of the Swiftwind Tribe seems to be based on the principles he taught during his time there.
When Dean was teaching, he taught whatever came to mind. He didn’t put much heart into it, but David managed to extract a valid method from the haphazard information that Dean provided and it seems to be very effective.
Seems David managed to steady the ship and grew the tribe to a great extent in just over a year. Dean finds it difficult to find the right timing to make his grand return, and it leaves him quite discontented.
“Damn it, I refuse to believe that I cannot find an opportunity. Even if I can’t find one, I can definitely create one!
Off to the Golden Plain!”
With this in mind, Dean decides to head to the Golden Plain to supposedly concoct a crisis for the Goblin Tribe.
By crafting a crisis, he could then step in to resolve it. A perfect chance for an impressive return!
Therefore, with a map from the Swiftwind Tribe in hand, Dean plunges into the passage leading to the Golden Plain and steps foot in the Golden Plain.
[You have entered Golden Plain, gained 50 exploration points, current exploration points 800!]
Dean brushes off the system notification and gets to work immediately.
“The area around the Golden Plain Passage has been taken under control by David. Currently, the Swiftwind Tribe has established a base here, with David personally guarding it.
Aside from exerting forceful deterrent, the tribe has also established positive relationships with several forces nearby. Together, they have created a trade market, which acts as the bond between them.
The Swiftwind Tribe, the Werewolf Tribe, the Fox Clan, and the Gnome Clan have formed a powerful alliance.
All four forces have collectively progressed!”
Remembering this piece of information, Dean nods in acknowledgment.
This nod is both a recognition of David’s initiatives and a concern for the current pattern of growth.
“They are doing a good job, but it’s just that – a good facade.
On the surface, this collective seems solid and invincible. However, beneath the surface, the other three forces don’t truly accept the Swiftwind Tribe.
Swiftwind Tribe is only doing the things the other three forces want to do but can’t, hence acting as a lubricant.
Once the three forces get along well, the Swiftwind Tribe would lose its purpose, and they would just consume the Swiftwind goblin tribe.
So, it’s not like I want to create problems deliberately. I just want to remove potential risks for the Swiftwind Tribe!”
Saying this, Dean springs into action.
On the second day of Dean’s arrival on the Golden Plain, a conservative leader of the Werewolf Tribe, who was also the initiator of the collaboration with David, is attacked and severely injured in the Swiftwind Tribe’s base on the Golden Plain.
Although he is not dead, he is in a deep coma.
According to clues from the scene, a goblin from the Swiftwind Tribe is involved. Even implicating David, the goblin hero of the attack.
It is, of course, Dean’s doing.
His primary intention is to intensify the conflict between the Werewolf Tribe and the Swiftwind Tribe.
Based on the information gathered by Dean and Old Eight, it seems that the Werewolf Tribe’s vice leader is the representative of the young faction among werewolves who despises the Swiftwind Tribe due to their aggressive and fierce nature. They have been trying to persuade the elder leader and the other two groups to consume the Swiftwind Goblin Tribe.
However, he has always been suppressed by the elder leader and has never succeeded.
Now, Dean provides him an opportunity by taking down the elder leader, while also giving him a substantial excuse. Dean is excited to see how this radical representative of the werewolves will perform next..
