Chapter 1368: The Rebellion in the Mountain City

Hoffman Panshi is the martial arts leader of the Panshi family and the defense captain of the ancestral mountain city, responsible for the security of the entire mountain city.

In terms of number of people, the Rock family can be said to be the least number of lumberjacks among all the lumberjack families. Including Hoffman, there are only eight people in the Rock family.

This is mainly because the fertility rate of the Panshi family, both men and women, is very low. Being able to give birth to one offspring is already a blessing from the gods. If you give birth to two, it will definitely be a great joy for the entire family. It is precisely because the fertility rate is so low that the number of people in the Panshi family will decrease without generations. Some people estimate that if the reputation of the Panshi family does not improve, the Panshi family may not exist after two or three generations.

However, even so, no lumberjack family would underestimate the Panshi family, because even though the number of people in this family is not large, both individuals and overall, the strength of this family is among the top lumberjack families. The reason for this is entirely because of the innate ability of the Panshi family, which gives them powerful power, but it is also likely that the reason for the lack of population in their family.

Like the name of the Rock Family, the Rock Family's innate abilities are as strong and powerful as the Rock. As long as it is within the range of Mount Trubo, the people of the Rock Family have endless power and a body as strong as the Rock Trubo.

Because of this innate ability to occupy an innate advantage, the Panshi family is very martial. Almost every member of the Panshi family has the strength of a senior knight. With the cooperation of family members, even if they face an army of thousands, they have the ability to eliminate it in frontal attacks.

Therefore, the strongest combat power among the Panshi family in all dynasties will be appointed as family martial arts chiefs, whose status is higher than that of the family clan leader. At the same time, the Panshi family's martial arts chiefs will also serve as the defense captain of the ancestral mountain city, responsible for the defense of the entire mountain city. Especially when there is abnormal movement in Trubo Mountain, the people of the Panshi family can usually turn the tide. Because their family's abilities are closely related to Trubo Mountain, they are also nicknamed the sons of Trubo Mountain by other lumberjack families.

There are few abnormal movements in Mount Trubo. The Zudi Mountain City is at the foot of Mount Trubo and is protected by a mysterious force, so it is much safer than other areas of Mount Trubo.

The annual custom of entering the mountain in the lumberjack family is more like a vacation than following ancient traditions. The Panshi family is stationed in the ancestral mountain city all year round, responsible for the safety of the family entering the mountain. Although the Panshi family also has industries outside, most of them are left to other families for management.

This time, the Utd Federation suddenly took action against the lumberjack family, which did not have time to transfer the industry of the lumberjack family. All lumberjack families suffered heavy losses, and only the Panshi family suffered very little losses. However, the current situation is not very good for the Panshi family, because the food reserved in the mountain city is not enough for so many families to consume. Most of the capable families go to the hamlets they built to live in. Only those families who do not have the ability to hunt independently will settle in the mountain city. In this way, all the food supply in the mountain city needs to rely on the Panshi family.

For this reason, the Panshi family has been leading members of the lumberjack family who are capable of hunting in the mountain city to leave the mountain city and hunt in the nearby forest.

At the beginning, things went smoothly. Every time the hunting team came back, they could bring a lot of prey. The mountain city's material warehouse was gradually filled with them, and the food difficulties were being compensated little by little.

However, something unexpected happened a few days ago. A thick fog that Hoffmann Rock had never seen before suddenly appeared outside the mountain city, wrapping up the forest outside the mountain city and other places, and even penetrated into the mountain city, covering almost the same area before it stopped spreading.

This is not the most headache-inducing thing. The most headache-inducing thing is that all the people who did not have time to hide when the fog spreads have not escaped from the fog these days. Even a rescue team that entered later fell into it. What scares them is that the fog seems to have some kind of crazy power. Some people from the lumberjack family will fall into a state of madness after watching the fog for too long, and they will rush away like crazy and try to rush into the fog.

Fortunately, this incident was discovered in time. Except for the first few people who were crazy at first, who had no time to stop them and rushed into the thick fog, the other crazy people were discovered in time, tied up with ropes, and locked up in the dungeon in the city.

In order to avoid the emergence of crazy people again, all the members of the lumberjack family who survived the mountain city were locked in their respective houses, and the doors and windows were nailed to death. Everyone stayed in the house. Only a few people who had not received the influence of the thick fog were still in the mountain city, responsible for delivering food and water to those locked up at home.

Because there was not enough manpower, Hoffman had to release the people locked in the mountain city cell and select those who would not be affected by the thick fog to supplement the lack of manpower.

Among these prisoners, the most famous one is Bain Ruf, the patriarch of the Luf family. A clan leader of a lumberjack family would be locked up, and the reason for betraying the Luf family and the entire lumberjack family was really surprised by Hoffman. However, this matter had nothing to do with the Rock family, and he did not intend to pay attention to this matter, just waiting for the matter to pass. He saw whether the members of the Rock family who had hunted before were still alive. If they were all dead, he was not interested in staying here anymore, so he no longer wanted to pay attention to the lumberjack family.

The subsequent development of the matter was not as bad as expected. After surviving the first particularly difficult few days, the situation had stabilized, and the thick fog had gradually faded from yesterday.

Although the thick fog has not completely receded, the crazy-spirited power in the thick fog has weakened a lot. More and more members of the lumberjack family are no longer affected by the thick fog power. Some tribe members who had previously fallen into the thick fog seemed to have recovered from the thick fog and walked out of the thick fog themselves.

Hoffman, who had been working for many days, also relaxed a little. After conducting a routine inspection, he came to the thick fog and considered the opportunity to leave the mountain city.

Although he was very slow to politics, he could also feel that the atmosphere in the mountain city did not weaken as the thick fog faded, but became even more nervous, because Bain Ruf, who had been released to assist him, suddenly rushed into the dungeon with some people yesterday, released the rest, and gathered these people and their companions to form a force that was not the core of the family, and began to fight against the lumberjack family in the city.

If there were several other lumberjack families who were good at fighting in the mountain city, things would not have gone to this point.

Those families would arrest Bain Ruf before they did this, and even after Bain Ruf had gathered some of his subordinates, they could still suppress him and use various methods to dismantle the people around him.

But the question is that people with a little bit of combat power are now in their own village outside the mountain city. Whether they survived the sudden change in Mount Trub is still unknown, let alone sending people to deal with Bain Ruf.

It is precisely because the lumberjack family in the mountain city is helpless about Bain Ruf, which makes Hoffman's attitude towards the strongest combat power in the mountain city particularly important, so people often come to him to chat in the past two days, hoping to get his public support.

However, Hoffmann did not intend to interfere in this matter from the beginning. In his opinion, first of all, this matter itself was not in accordance with the rules. In the past, even if a certain family patriarch committed a crime, the family would handle it internally and would never let other families deal with it. Secondly, this matter seemed like a farce, because the person who arrested Bain Ruf was a member of another lumberjack family. After the other party arrested the person, he claimed a charge and locked Bain Ruf into the dungeon. No one from the Ruf family appeared from beginning to end. No matter how you look at this, it makes people feel that something is strange.

Compared to the internal struggle situation that occurred in the lumberjack family in the mountain city, Hoffman is more concerned about the safety of his tribe members. Even if he doesn't have much feelings for his tribe members, those people are his only relatives in this world after all.

Just as Hoffman was thinking about a chance to get out, a member of the lumberjack family hurried towards him.

Seeing this person, Hoffman couldn't help but sigh. He knew this person. The other party was a member of the Faris family, the largest number of people in the mountain city, and the internal affairs officer in the mountain city. He was responsible for all kinds of messy things in the mountain city. During this period, this person often came over to persuade him to deal with Bain Ruf.

As a result, it was impossible to get Hoffman's affirmative answer, and he did not achieve his goal. So these days he was like a group of fly around Hoffman, and he was tirelessly talking about something that was not, which made Hoffman often have the urge to strangle the man to pieces immediately.

So when Hoffman saw this man running towards him, he never had a good look on his face. Before the other party came to him, he asked first, "What happened? I ran over so quickly."

"What happened, something big happened!" The man gasped for a few breaths, then nodded immediately and said.

Hoffman was completely stunned. His inquiry just now was just a casual question, and he never thought that an inquiry would become a positive answer.

The man did not pay attention to Hoffman's expression and continued, "Bain killed Old Bjorn."

"What?" Hoffman's face then showed a strong look of anger, and he confirmed again: "Are you saying true?"

The man hurriedly said, "Of course it's true. Just on the other side of the square, Old Bjorn's body is still there, and his body is full of traces of beasts biting. The only person who has beasts and can control beasts in the entire mountain city is Bain."

After hearing this, Hoffmann had an unexpected reaction, and the angry expression on his face gradually turned into solemnity and contemplation.

The old Bjorn in the two of them is the elder of the Leiden family in the city. The Leiden family is not a family known for fighting. Their family's innate abilities are related to plants. Some control plants, some promote plant growth, but more listen to the minds of plants. Therefore, their family is the best scouts and spies, because their family can often hear many confidential things through this ability to listen to plants.

Old Bjorn's ability is different from that of other people in their family. He is able to distinguish the effects of plants on the human body.

Because of his ability, he went to the National Academy of Ott Federation to study herbal medicine when he was young, and became an herbalist. With the help of his ability, he became a master of herbal medicine in a short time.

In the past many years, most of the people in the lumberjack family have been treated by him, and the herbists in each family are his students. The reputation of the old Bjorn is one of the best in the entire lumberjack family.

Now that Old Bjorn has been killed and died tragically, the lumberjack family in the entire mountain city will be angry, even those members who have made mistakes and were imprisoned. The person who caused Old Bjorn to die tragically will inevitably become the enemy of the entire lumberjack family.

It is also for this reason that when Hoffman heard that Old Bjorn was killed by Bain Ruf's companion beast, he immediately escaped from his anger, because he felt that it was more like a conspiracy against Bain Ruf.

Although he had only been with Bain Ruf for a few days, he could also feel that the seemingly rude leader of the Ruf family actually had a deep thought. This person would never kill Old Bjorn, because he would not only have no benefits, but only have only disadvantages. Even if he did it, he would never use companion beasts to kill Old Bjorn, because it would definitely leave obvious traces. It would be easier and more secretive to do it by himself.

That's why Hoffmann immediately felt something was wrong after hearing this and did not make a decision immediately.

After thinking for a while, Hoffman ordered to the Faris family: "Immediately ring the alarm bell of the bell tower and summon all the remaining members of the defense team in the city to the square."

After saying that, he did not give any further explanation, so he stepped towards the square. He ran as fast as he could, for fear that he would run slower, and after arriving at the square, something irreversible would have happened.

However, when he was about to arrive at the square, he heard all kinds of noises and shouts coming from the square, and then a beast roar rang out, and a large number of people gathered in the square began to run around in panic, as if something terrible was happening in the square.
