Legend of the Dragon God
Ch. 78 – Tribal Chief Basile.

“Salazar! Severin! Wow, you guys are really back!”

Liu Chang could see everyone in this hidden Valley shouting at their entourage, Salazar and Severin were the ones they were looking for the most because their information had been very limited the past few days.

A dozen people immediately approached Salazar and swarmed him to ask him how he was doing. Liu Chang and Chiriyu retreated slowly with Severin towards the chief's room.

“We go first. Salazar is the Chairman so naturally he is asked a lot.” Severin led Liu Chang towards the large room in this Valley.

Liu Chang could see that the houses here had a unique shape, even for him who often ventured. Not long after walking, Severin stopped and pointed at a room with various decorations as well as carvings.

“Tribal head is inside. Come inside! He has known of your arrival.” Severin said he had to take care of several things including reporting on events in the outside world.

Liu Chang nodded slowly. After Severin's departure, Liu Chang stuffed Chiriyu Back onto the seal paper, worried that something dangerous would happen upon entering the chief's room. Chiriyu did not argue, she was aware of her brother's worries.

“Alright, hopefully nothing strange ...” Liu Chang let out a long sigh, and immediately entered the room of the chieftain.

On the other hand, Salazar gets a lot of questions related to the outside world regarding his mission. Actually, the task he is currently completing is a collection of tasks that his friends did not successfully complete. Especially related to artifacts and other ancient objects.

“Unfortunately in the area has been destroyed but I still got it some.” Salazar smiled bitterly. When visiting an area that has not been settled by members of his tribe, Salazar only got the debris of the building.

The man who handed the task to Salazar felt guilty but he had no intention of discussing it with Salazar any further. It was fortunate that Salazar wanted to take on a task he had not successfully completed.

After discussing some things with the people of his tribe, Salazar walked towards his house, for a long time he did not see the state of his family. Salazar remembered his sister had taken a gift from him upon his return.

“You're home early, son. In a few years you've helped a lot for the tribe, I'm proud of you.” A half-century old man smiled gently at the sight of his son standing in the doorway.

“Thank you. Forgive this stupid kid who always let you down.” Salazar hugged his father after a long quarrel between them occurred, first when Salazar decided to join the army of tribal archaeologists, his father was very opposed to it.

Because with the task of the tribe's archaeological team, the, Salazar would always travel and be in danger, but even though his father did not allow Salazar to remain insistent on entering the army until finally succeeding in the position of chairman.

Without caring about the people around him, the two shed tears to let go of all the mistakes and regrets between father and son.

Both of them entered the house after releasing all the burden of their mistakes, Salazar immediately looked for his brother who was so enthusiastic when he saw him coming home, even as it was not his return that was awaited but the gift of Salazar's return to him.

“You know, big brother spent more than half a piece of gold to buy this, you have to repay your brother's kindness.” Salazar pinched his sister's cheek with anxiety.

Salazar's sister only smiled awkwardly, she immediately ran to her room after getting the thing she wanted. Salazar rushed to meet his mother who was in the kitchen, when his mother came home would definitely cook his favorite dishes and welcome him with joy.

After meeting his family and giving up longing, Salazar immediately rushed to the chief to report on the various circumstances that occurred while carrying out the mission.

If Salazar could have wanted to spend more time with his family, but his duties as chairman prevented him from doing so. Currently the main priority is the mission of researching ancient artifacts that have not been successfully completed from generation to generation.

“Well, something happened. They arrived–” A girl suddenly hugged Liu Chang before Liu Chang could finish her sentence.

“Come handsome drink again, enjoy the party!” The girl smiled happily while teasing Liu Chang.

Liu Chang could only smile awkwardly before Salazar who looked at him with a look of astonishment, it seemed that the young man did not particularly like this atmosphere.

Salazar shook his head slowly, and directly faced in front of the head of his tribe. Likewise with the girls who were drunk, the condition of the chief of his tribe was not too much different.

“Chairman, I came to report–”

“Well, I already know from this friend you brought, sit down. Now let's party first, it's not a good thing to let these girls not do their job!” Basile, the chieftain of Everard. Draw Salazar's hand to the group of half-open-dressed girls.

Salazar could only get out of this group of girls with all his might, he approached Liu Chang and led him out of this room to avoid the party of the chief of his tribe.

“She's really crazy, when I just logged in a while ago ...” Liu Chang recounted that a few hours ago, when he walked into this room suddenly a girl directly pulled his hand and gave him a lot of liquor especially some cheap wine in this place.

It was fortunate that Liu Chang realized his tolerance towards wine was high enough that the wine he drank quite a lot earlier did not affect his condition to the point of being drunk.

“Luckily Chiriyu was not here, Liu Chang's inner”, worried that her sister was following the girls earlier on her behavior.

Salazar only smiled faintly then explained a few things about the head of his tribe, Basile, while waiting for him to finish partying with the girls.

Liu Chang frowned several times upon hearing Salazar's story, and laughed in some parts of the story quite funny. If Salazar's explanation is summarized, Basile was the chieftain of the Everard tribe many generations ago, his current age almost reaching a thousand years.

Young Basile entered into the army of tribal archaeologists, himself many great meritorious at that time. Countless countries that he managed to explore while in the army of tribal archaeologists.

Although it could be said that the army of archaeologists consists of people who are tasked with researching artifacts, but the individual strength of each army is also not inferior to the ability of an intermediate swordsman, you could say only the magic swordsman up can complicate their path.

In addition, Salazar also tells of Basile who first inherited the position of chieftain from his father after the age of 400 years, at that time his age was arguably quite mature in the Everard tribe to hold the position of chieftain, but for ordinary humans the age of Basile at that time was clearly sepuh.

Even for a swordsman like Liu Chang, a 400-year-old was something impenetrable or even impossible. One of the oldest warriors today is known to have only reached the age of 150, and it was also a member of the black school.

“At this time it might be over 800 years old, and it might also be because of that that Chairman Basile was trying to find something to satisfy him before dying. Given its very old age must be a burden.” Salazar added to his explanation.

Liu Chang was also curious as to the actual age of the Everard tribe members who could reach that monstrous number, arguably if the warriors knew of this secret, he said, the warriors out there would probably attack this tribe to uncover the secrets of their long life.

Eternity and long life are tempting things, no matter what reason humans always aspire to be immortal in this mortal world.

Since the beginning various strange and even disgusting ways are often done to get immortality ranging from searching for eternal springs or consuming drugs, he said, but all of those efforts had no real results and until now those ways were no longer trusted.

“It looks like Chairman Basile's party is over, look at the girls who have come out of his room. Come log in!” Salazar stepped first followed Liu Chang behind into the chief's room.
