Chapter 5: Departure to Dublin
Old Cooper cleaned up the dust on his body: "Hey, there are many checkpoints set up along the way, which delays the trip, and the war on this continent is about to start again." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
When I heard this, I asked Cooper, Sr., "What's the matter?" ”
"A few days ago, the Norink Kingdom was conducting military exercises on the border with the Donkston Kingdom, under the pretext that the soldiers were missing, and now the situation between the two countries is becoming more and more tense, and war will break out at any time, just yesterday, there was a small friction between the armies of the Donkston and the Norinker Kingdom, it is said that there are dead people, and now the two countries are negotiating, and wars are being triggered everywhere."
When I heard it, I thought to myself, hum, the Norink Kingdom is just like Japan on Earth, and it uses the same way, but this Dunxton is still a little bloody, and it is not affected by this. "It seems that there will be a war on the mainland in the next few days, I am afraid that this time there will be more countries affected than before, which is equivalent to a world war in our country, and this time the Kingdom of Sri Lanka, as a conservative side, will also enter the war, after all, Sri Lanka is in a very awkward position."
Old Cooper heard me and replied: "It seems so, but we should be fine here, after all, we belong to the most remote part of Sri Lanka, and the war will not affect us." Old Cooper saw the Lan Lun wine on the table, took a sip of the wine on his beard, wiped the wine on his beard, and continued: "Lei, I believe that you are a talent, and you will definitely do something in the future, why don't you take this opportunity to take a walk on the mainland, after all, you are a human being, although you are different, but at least it is convenient for you to live in the human area, and now that war is about to break out everywhere, why don't you go to a certain position in the army, not to mention that you used to be a soldier." ”
I pondered for a moment and said, "To be honest, I also want to go to the human area, I want to see and understand the civilization here, but I never thought about going through war or anything else, because I was on the side of the invasion in my hometown, and after years of civil war, to be honest, I was really a little tired of war and even hated war. I looked up at Cooper: "War is a medium to satisfy a certain person or organization, and in the end it is the soldiers and the people who are unlucky, and every war displaces more people and devastates a region." ”
Old Cooper sighed after hearing it and said: "Alas, you are right, war, the beneficiary is always someone, but have you ever thought that war stops at war, if you want to end the war quickly, you have to participate in the war, I don't know where you were before, but I know that it is a civilized and technologically advanced society, and you are born here now, then you are here, this is fate cannot be changed, only you can change the way in the future, my Cooper is a foreigner, although I have never been to the big city of human beings, But I've also been exposed to a lot, and now I'm one hundred and thirty years old, and I believe that I must have more experience than you. ”
I know that the civilization here is not developed enough, and the dwarves are very loyal and hardworking, the dwarves generally have a long lifespan, almost one hundred and sixty years old, although Uncle Cooper is a dwarf, but he has never had a problem with me because I am a human, but has saved me and has been helping me, I don't know what I should do in the future, but at least I know that Uncle Cooper is right.
"Ray, do you know why our dwarven tribe lives in the Humanland region?"
I was a little dazed when I heard this and shook my head.
"When I was young, probably in my twenties, I was still living in the middle of the continent at that time, my father was the patriarch of our tribe, and our tribe occupied a very beautiful and rich place, and near us were fallen elves, monsters and gnomes, originally we dwarves have been forging for generations, but gnomes are familiar with earth magic and can feel the breath of the earth, while gnomes live underground and are good at mining, but gnomes are very cunning and cowardly, they have no ability to protect themselves, And although we dwarves do not have human intelligence, elven archery, and do not use any magic, we dwarves are the most resistant species except for giants, and we are strong in attack, so we live with gnomes for generations, gnomes help us mine ores, and we are responsible for the protection of gnomes. But one day, the dwarf tribe allied with our tribe betrayed us and attracted the fallen elves and orcs to attack us, and in my twenties, I put on armor and held a giant hammer to follow my father to defend my homeland, but in the face of the dark magic of the fallen elves and the strong attacks of the orcs, we were defeated one after another, until that moment, we knew that this time we lost, and my father took a group of dwarven warriors to cover us against the strong attacks of the fallen elves and orcs for the reproduction and offspring of our tribe, And my uncle fled with me to the human land, which is here, while my father remained there forever. This is also why the dwarves in our dwarven tribe generally have higher IQs than other dwarves, and think that they have been dealing with humans for a long time. Old Cooper's eyes flashed sharply, but there was full of sadness: "Ray, my child, soldiers defend their homeland for their homeland and their families from infringement, and you are born here now, then you are a citizen of Sri Lanka, the country is threatened, you have the responsibility to defend your homeland, and you, with infinite talent, believe that you can have a bright future." When you get tired of it one day, then you come back, and this will always be your home. ”
Unconsciously, after listening to these words, my eyes were a little rosy, and my heart was even more determined. It's true that war stops at war, and I don't care where I was born, but now that I'm a Sri Lankan, maybe the situation on the continent is very similar to World War II on Earth, and it makes me feel the same way, where my country has been neglected by the Japanese, and here, my country is also under the threat of war. As a soldier, at least, I was a soldier, and I have a responsibility to defend my country from violation. I decided, set off and went to Dublin.
Nothing to say all night..................................................................................................................
I didn't fall asleep all night, I was meditating all night, and this time I'm going back to the battlefield, soldier, not afraid of war, but it doesn't mean that I like war. This time, when I went to the human area, I didn't know what kind of experience I would experience, and I didn't know if the humans here would be like the humans on Earth. If it is people from Europe, America, North America and other countries, it doesn't matter, if it is like Chinese, then it is over, Chinese are good at scheming, and the famous deeds of many ancients have been widely circulated, such as "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Thirty-six Plans", "Spring and Autumn" and so on. If the humans here are like the people of the earth, then there is something to play. But pray silently.

The next morning, I started to pack my bags, the other day I asked Aunt Cooper to help me make an armed military bag, put my clothes and so on in my luggage, before I only had two rounds left in my Thomson submachine gun, so this time I decided not to take it, I will take the Lee? Enfield wrapped his rifle in animal skins, pinned Webley's revolver and Colt pistol to his waist, slung my eight-sided sword and dagger, and pinned his command knife to the side of his luggage, and walked out of the room, ready to say goodbye to old Cooper and Cooper as he left.
