Chapter 433: Chapter 300 The outside world is indeed too dangerous (4K)

The Featherman general's weathered face flushed slightly.

Truth be told, he was indeed unaware.

In his lifetime, he had stepped foot outside the Featherman Kingdom only a handful of times, to be precise, merely twice, and both times he had ventured out for no more than a day or two before returning to the kingdom.

His knowledge of the outside world was virtually nonexistent.

This was rather embarrassing for the Feathermen.

No, this won't do. The 'how could you be so ignorant' look in the eyes of this human powerhouse made Yu·Rongyue somewhat unable to maintain his composure.

"I'm just one of the younger generals of our Featherman Kingdom. If you want to know the situation with the Monster power around here, asking old Master Spot is sure to be correct."

Duo Lai originally wanted to meet the supreme Queen of the Featherman Kingdom, but the Featherman Queen didn't seem to want to see it, so it could only follow the Featherman general and find 'Yu Spot,' an elderly Featherman grand general.

He was indeed very old.

His hair was thin, his temples marked with streaks of white.

A pair of scar-covered, grey-white wings drooped behind him like they were broken. He was holding a flask of wine, pouring it into his mouth sporadically, exuding an air of decay.

Yu Spot looked up at the sound and glanced at Duo Lai, "A visitor from afar?" He seemed surprised, but that was all.

"Do you want to know about this region and the news related to the Monster power?"

The elderly Featherman shook his head, "Young human, I don't know how you managed to come here, but what I want to tell you is that this world has deep waters, and it's far from as simple as what it appears on the surface."

It seemed he was speaking not only to Duo Lai but also to the likes of Yu·Rongyue and other younger Featherman powerhouses.

"In the east, there lies a vast Snake man tribe in the Snake King Swamp, with boundlessly powerful Snake men..."

Duo Lai nodded in agreement.

It was aware of this information, corresponding to the great Snake man tribe located in the southwest of the Tianyuan Territory.

Yu·Rongyue was also aware of this, "I've seen this tribe from a distance in the past, and it's indeed very powerful. But our Featherman Kingdom is no weaker; even if the Queen doesn't take action, our Featherman Kingdom wouldn't be afraid of this Snake man tribe, right?"

He always had the intention to strike at the outside world, but the Queen and other Featherman elders were strongly opposed to exploring the outside world.

In the elders' eyes, their Featherman Kingdom was perfectly self-sufficient and the environment outside was not as picturesque as their Featherman Valley. Why should they risk venturing into the wastelands beyond?

Still, the young Featherman powerhouses yearned to fly out of the valley and see the sky beyond.

"Hmph!"

Old Master Spot glanced at the most headstrong amongst them, "The Snake man tribe is just one of the many Monster Tribes we must face."

"Not to mention distant ones, just two hundred kilometers east of the Snake man tribe, there lies another powerful tribe, the Goblin Tribe..."

As the old man spoke, young Featherman couldn't help but speak up:

"Master Spot, I remember that Monster Tribes also attack each other, especially when the tribes are of different species. Shouldn't they be fighting each other to the death? We could then take advantage of the situation and eliminate both threats in one fell swoop."

As he spoke, he even gestured for emphasis.

The elder said indifferently, "You have some knowledge but only understand half of it. Those who know only half are often quicker to die than those who are completely ignorant; at least the latter still have a sense of awe for the unknown."

Having taken a couple of swigs of cloudy wine, he continued, "Under normal circumstances, the Snake man and Goblin Tribes certainly do fight, but if there is an even stronger, more terrifying Monster power standing behind them, if they are simply being commanded, pawns left out as gatekeepers, then they naturally won't fight each other."

On the contrary, the absence of strife between the two tribes means that…

"How can that be!"

Some young Feathermen turned pale.

"Why not?" said the elder Yu Spot. "The Monster power standing behind the Snake man and Goblin is a group of Snake men. This group of Snake men is the true overlord of this region... one of them."

"Hundreds of kilometers to the north, a group of Jackal Men, who dominate both the Jackal Man and Kobold Tribes, is another overlord of the region."

"To the west, deep within the Red Leaf Forest, there are no Monster Tribes, but legend has it that's the domain of the 'Blood Tree King.' Even the Cobra Overlord and Wolf Overlord dare not set foot in that part of the Red Leaf Forest."

"Does not the depth of such an external world speak for itself? And yet, this is but a corner within the view of our Featherman Kingdom. The outside world has long been occupied by monsters, and the living can only struggle on their last breath. Vitality Forces that can comfortably live within their own territory, like we Feathermen do, are becoming exceedingly rare. You should be content."

Even with foreigners visiting, the old Featherman's mindset remained bleak.

After all, in the past, civilizations that had survived weren't limited to their Featherman Kingdom alone, but as time passed, one after another, these forces extinguished their civilizational fires.

Some were destroyed;

Some were eroded and became no different from monsters;

Others fled to distant lands, likely also drowned in the long river of history.

Only their Featherman Kingdom, locking its gates and developing in isolation, has persisted to this day.

In the old Featherman's view, even allowing this foreigner into their kingdom should not have happened. What if it led to their Featherman Kingdom's coordinates being discovered by the Monster Overlords?
