Chapter 419: Antecedents and Consequences, Butterfly Effect

MDZZ!

Is this man sick in the head?

Zhongli looked at Tina with a surprised expression, completely unexpected, not that he wasn't thoughtful enough, but that it didn't make sense.

The world is bustling, all for profit, human beings are like this, elves are the same, conquering humans and land, for Atlantis and elves, what is the benefit?

A sense of conquest?

Or is it an achievement that will go down in history?

Or is it for some kind of benefit that humans and the land possess?

These reasons don't make sense, the elves are close to nature, peaceful in nature, and are not keen on war and conquest, otherwise, with their technological power ahead of an era, they could conquer the whole world hundreds of years ago, why wait until now?

Since it is not famous, then only profit remains, but what is there on the land, it is worth launching a racial war in Atlantis to seize it, they have inherited the heritage of the ancient elves, and they live in the vast sea, the development of science and technology and the cultivation of vitality are far ahead, and there is no shortage of resources, is it necessary to plot against the human race?

Even if there is, there is no need to start a race war, they are the founders and leaders of the Western world, Britain and the United States and other countries can rise in the Age of Discovery, all without their support and help, as long as they are willing, they can completely influence and even dominate the direction of the Western world.

With such power, what is there on land that they can't get, and they still need to work hard to wage war?

It's 10,000 steps back, they have every reason to start this war, but the war also depends on the right time, now the recovery process of the world's vitality is accelerating, the major evil gods dormant in the sea have moved, the tide of darkness has broken out frequently, although Atlantis can barely resist, but it is only a counterpart, not taking the initiative at all, but some disadvantages, in this situation, they actually plan to fight at both ends, and divide their precious forces to wage war against humans and land?

Isn't this a brain disease?

"So it's complicated!"

Feeling Zhongli's neurotic gaze, Tina was also a little helpless, and hurriedly explained: "Because of the bloodline, Atlantis is divided into three classes, the royal family, the nobles, and the commoners, the royal family is at the top, the supreme one, the nobles are the backbone, and the commoners belong to the lower class, but they are the foundation of everything, so even if it is the royal family, they cannot ignore the existence and will of the nobles and commoners." ”

"Hmm!"

Zhongli groaned and asked, "So this war is a means for other royal families to use the power of nobles and commoners to fight Ino?"

"Not bad!"

Tina nodded and said, "Led by the three highnesses, the entire Atlantis is divided into three factions, and these three factions have different attitudes towards humans, His Highness Eno is friendly, His Highness Eve is neutral, and His Highness Orm is disgusted and hostile. ”

"Really?"

Zhongli muttered, and then asked, "But this is not a reason for Atlantis to start a war. ”

"Indeed!"

Tina nodded again and said, "Atlantis is a whole, even His Majesty the Emperor can't start a war because of his own personal wishes, so even if His Highness Aum has always been hostile to humans, Atlantis has never severed its contact with the human world. ”

"Oh!"

Zhongli smiled and said, "So, now your overall attitude has changed?"

"This ......"

Tina hesitated for a while, then shook her head and said, "The war bill has not yet been passed, so His Highness Eno will order us to come and ask you to go to Atlantis." ”

Hearing this, Zhongli didn't immediately express his position, but said, "Let's talk about what is going on first." ”

Aum, this is a very unfamiliar name for Zhongli, neither his personal experience before his rebirth nor the records of Zhi Brain's data have any information about this name.

This is not a strange thing, before Zhongli was reborn, Atlantis was not close to the human race, and there was even a faint estrangement, and the major forces of the human race only knew about this sea elf in some well-known events, such as Eve, the empress and the supreme artifact in her hand, the spirit of the tide sea.

In addition to these, human beings have very little understanding of Atlantis, and some parts are even blank, as if there is no relevant record in the database of the brain's brain for the factional dispute between Orm and the elven royal family.

It is precisely because of this that the development of this matter made Zhongli a little unexpected, before he was reborn, Atlantis had no intention of waging war against humans at all, but in order to resist the invasion of the dark tide, he made alliances with humans many times, until the major forces returned from the heavens and all worlds and began internal conquests, they gradually severed their ties with humans and stayed away from the whirlpool that had nothing to do with them.

The trajectory of history has changed, Zhongli is not surprised, after all, his butterfly has been stirring its wings hard, how can it not cause some reactions, but he didn't expect this reaction to be so big, and directly changed Atlantis's attitude towards humans to war and hostility.

This shouldn't be, although he killed a lot of Atlantis people on that island last time, they were basically human knights of the Arlan Knights, the only royal elves involved, but they were replaced with the star core, even if this was a little suspicious of blackmail, it wouldn't be so hateful, right?

"It all had to start half a month ago......"

Tina sighed, no longer hidden, and said, "Half a month ago, the arcane elements of this world, for some reason, suddenly exploded, although we were able to benefit, but the power of the dark tide also increased, they quickly accelerated their expansion, frequently launched attacks, the situation became more and more unfavorable for us, and the losses became more and more serious. ”

Tina didn't explain to Zhongli what the arcane element was and what the dark tide was, because she felt that Zhongli seemed to know everything, so, with a hint of temptation, she avoided the process of explanation and said directly: "On the tenth day of the explosion of elemental explosions, another wave of darkness hit Atlantis, at that time we were in the midst of resting, ten days of fierce fighting left many people physically and mentally exhausted, and there were gaps in the defenses, although the darkness was finally repelled, but there were also a large number of casualties among the people. ”

After that, Tina sighed again, and said in a heavy voice: "Just after this wave of Dark Tide attacked, His Royal Highness Orm and His Royal Highness Eve jointly proposed a war proposal against humans, they want to conquer the land, and use the humans on the land as slaves to participate in the war against the Dark Tide, so as to reduce the loss of the elves. ”

Hearing this, Zhongli also understood what was going on, and asked with some amusement, "Do you think this will work?"

Tina shook her head, didn't answer Zhongli, just took out a ring that shone with colorful light, handed it to Zhongli, and said, "This is the invention of an elven scholar - the arcane ring, which is full of explosive arcane elements, as long as you use elven runes, you can detonate it and cause devastating damage. ”

"Hmm!"

Zhongli took the arcane ring, looked it up and down, and then smiled, "That's a good idea. ”

Hearing his nonchalant tone, Tina could only smile bitterly and said: "The explosive growth of the arcane element has made the manufacture of this arcane ring very easy, and His Highness Aum has mass-produced it, and is ready to use this arcane ring to control the human race, so as to counteract the numerical superiority of the dark tide in the war." ”

Zhongli smiled and asked, "What is the attitude of the others?"

Tina shook her head and said: "Because of the royal faction, the vast majority of the nobles in the council agree with His Highness Orm's proposal, only a small number of nobles are on the side of His Highness Eno and oppose provoking this war, the five elven kings have not expressed their position, but except for my father, the other four kings seem to be inclined to war." ”

Hearing this, Zhongli was not much surprised, because this is a reasonable thing, the royal family is the absolute ruler of Atlantis, and the power of the bloodline is destined to the middle and lower classes will never be able to resist their will, and now that Eve and Aum have joined forces, the nobles in the council will naturally choose to take sides.

In addition, Orm's proposal, for Atlantis, is also somewhat constructive, elves are good at everything, but one thing is not good, that is, reproduction efficiency, low probability of conception, slow growth, so the population of elves has not been much, and it is even more precious.

This is why, Atlantis was willing to exchange the core of the star for Iya's life, the number of elves is too small, especially the royal elves, each of which is extremely important, even if Iya commits a serious crime, Atlantis is willing to pay the price in exchange for her life.

With only such a small population, it has to fight against the dark tide formed by the aggregation of dozens of alien evil gods, bloodline inheritors, dependents, and alienated creatures, and the consumption can be imagined, even if those evil gods and more powerful bloodline inheritors are still unable to act at will, but the remaining dependents and alienated creatures are still a huge threat.

In this way, the losses of the elves are increasing day by day, and it is reasonable to find another way out, so even if you ignore the strife between the royal factions, many people agree with Orm's proposal.

Before Zhongli was reborn, Eve and the Death Bird successfully attacked and killed Ino and gained control of the Spirit of the Tide Sea.

What are the conditions for the implementation of this, nature is another form of vitality, the arcane system of the elf clan, before Zhongli was reborn, there was no one to make a great wish to speed up the recovery of the world's vitality, without the outbreak of this "arcane element", the arcane ring invented by the elf scholar would not have the conditions for mass production, and it would naturally become empty talk to control human beings into war.

Therefore, before Zhongli was reborn, Atlantis did not wage war against humans according to Orm's proposal, but launched an improved version of the knightly contract according to Eve's idea, so that the noble elves and commoner elves can also make contracts with humans like royal elves and enhance the overall strength of Atlantis.

Now, the butterfly effect caused by Zhongli has changed the direction of history, and the conditions for war against humanity are met, and Eve and Orm are also united.
