Chapter 162: The Law of the Forest

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Nothing was said all night.

It's hard to believe how smoothly everything went.

The pursuing orcs may have lost their way, or they may have retreated, but none of them appeared until we woke up. And the goblins we feared and the strange state of affairs here did not show any abnormalities after a long wait. This huge underground city seems to be destined for us to find and let us live in, and it seems that even the gods are not willing to let the blood of the Blue Feather Clan and the Night Elf Clan be severed.

The people of the Blue Feather Clan walked through every nook and cranny of the giant bowl-shaped city and every house, and they didn't find even the slightest thing wrong from beginning to end. It was as if the goblins who were supposed to live here had been taken away by a mysterious ability, and they left in such a hurry that they didn't even have time to pack up their packages and salute. In each room, we could find moldy or withered grain, as well as half a tank of water in a tank that was already smelly and covered with green moss. In addition, there are leather skirts and rudimentary weapons and so on, everything that should be found in a city is here. Aside from the fact that there is no life, it has everything you need to survive for a lifetime.

But...... Isn't that the biggest question?

Who would be so kind as to build such a huge city and abandon it without hesitation?

I couldn't figure it out, and Sarah and Lady Egerine couldn't figure it out. Goblins are a less familiar race to them, and all in all everything is full of questions.

One thing is for sure, though. In the face of the continuing crisis of the clan, all doubts must be put aside. As long as the clansmen can endure here until the thunderstorm beast tide ends. So what if there is a strange situation here? Just get by, just pray that there are no problems.

Then a full five days passed. All vigilance and vigilance seemed pointless. Not to mention the danger, not even a hint of wind has ever appeared.

It was only then that we finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In five days, both the people of the Blue Feather Clan and the children of the Night Elves had completely calmed down. The poor Blue Feather clan put aside the hatred of exterminating the clan for the time being, and the ignorant children also sensibly knew how to take care of themselves. Under the humble living conditions, everything becomes in order. Now that we are not short of food or water, we should be able to endure here until the day when the crisis is over.

The damn cave is gray all the time, there are no changes in light, no changes in climate and temperature, not even a hint of wind is felt. The bowl-shaped terrain caused a lot of trouble for unfamiliar people. The goblin's bed had to be three together to be enough for an adult Blue Feather to lie down. But in the face of life and death, these are small things. When the people were all settled and miserable, Sarah and Lady Egerine were completely relieved and had some time to talk to me about the future.

"Xu Yu, what should we do next?" Sitting on the toes of the giant goblin sculpture, Sarah dazedly pinched a gray grass stalk.

I understood what she meant, she wasn't referring to returning to the surface in half a month, but how to make these children grow and re-establish the night elf race. Sarah had no clue about these things, and she had no experience with them.

Sarah aside, even Lady Egerine doesn't know much about that. However, in comparison, the remnants of the Blue Feather Clan are all young and middle-aged people. Their future lives will naturally be much easier than those of the Night Elves' children. Thinking about Sarah having to rebuild her home with a group of children laments that it is extremely difficult. After all, this world is not only threatened by thunderstorms, a group of children in the blank land will only suffer from all kinds of difficulties. Beasts of all kinds are natural enemies, not to mention the hostile races that spy on the riches of the Night Elves. It is absolutely impossible for a group of children to survive under the prying eyes of these predators. Not to mention that the Night Elves are still a race that relies on long-range strikes to suppress their opponents in the medium and long range. Now that even the Darkwing Owl has been lost, they don't have any capital at all.

Looking at the expressionless Lady Egerine next to me, I also guessed another meaning of Sarah.

She didn't seem to be planning to rely on the Blue Feather Clan for help after she went out. This stubborn girl seems to have plans to take the children to be self-reliant.

How is this possible?

A group of children will also live safely in this forest full of dangers?

I don't know what Sarah thinks. I don't understand why he asked me this question. Could it be that in Sarah's eyes, I am the kind of person who is particularly wise?

Facing Sarah's expectant gaze. I shook my head: "Sarah, if you want to live alone with a group of children, it's almost impossible. Even if you can barely survive, you have to be prepared to accept sacrifices, even the most serious ones. It is only after the storms and crises that these children will truly grow up. But perhaps before then, all of these children may be lost. Do you understand that? If not, I'd like you to work with Lady Egerine to rebuild your home. ”

"No need! The future of the Night Elves must be created by the Night Elves themselves! Shaking her head categorically, Sarah seemed to pay attention.

I think she should have understood what his idea would bring, but I don't have the right to criticize her for anything. If Sarah can really lead the children to rebuild their homes in the struggle, then they will get the most strength and will in the adventures again and again. This kind of experience is something that cannot be achieved with their help, and such encounters can make the new Night Elves more solid in the future.

So Sarah's approach is not wrong, but it needs to be more risky. And big risk represents big gain, just look at whether you dare to bet.

I turned my head to look at Lady Igerine and sighed before asking, "Lady Igerine, do you think so too?" You should know what Sarah's words mean, and if even the slightest mistake goes wrong, the Night Elves could disappear from the forest entirely. ”

"Sarah wasn't wrong!" Not thinking that Lady Egerine was tougher than Sarah, she stared at the sky with her eyes and said, "The reproduction of a race cannot be smooth sailing, and it can only thrive under the tempering of all kinds of tribulations. The Great Shadow Forest is home to countless races, many of which disappear from this world almost every year. The strong will naturally stay, and the weak will inevitably be eliminated, this is the law destined by the Shadow Forest. If Sarah doesn't want the Night Elves to succumb to the Blue Feather Clan forever in the future, she must strive to stand on her own! Even if she fails by then, she will not be ashamed of the Night Elf ancestors after her death. ”

The words of the two left me speechless, the law of the jungle is indeed the essence of the world. Whether it is the earth or the human world, the concepts of the jungle and the survival of the fittest are exactly the same. It's no wonder that the night elves suffer from this, and if they are unlucky, they don't need others to sigh. Sarah's ability to bring the Night Elves out and thrive through countless crises is what she does. If she can't, no one is to blame.

I can't change Sarah and Lady Agelin's minds, so what I can do now is not to convince them, but to do my best to help them grow up better with my experience and insight on Earth for more than ten years.

That doesn't seem too difficult for me.

When you think about it, it is indeed a big problem for Sarah to survive all kinds of crises with a group of children.

First of all, they can't rest on their laurels and spend their lives in this damn underworld. Maybe it's a good place, but it's definitely not a race that needs to be grown. This place can be used by Sarah as the last guarantee for the continuation of the bloodline of the race in the future, but it is not possible for the children to stay here and finally lose all their courage.

And then the second point is that the outside world is definitely more dangerous than what I see in the human world. It's like a paradise for wild beasts, and the law of the jungle is on full display here. To survive, Sarah must face countless difficulties, dangers, and enemies. She was bringing a group of children, and it was absolutely impossible for them to grow up strong enough to defend themselves against external enemies in five or six years. In other words, Sarah has to take on the survival of more than 100 children by herself, which is even more impossible to do than encountering a thunderstorm beast tide.

Thinking about it, I realized that it was simply impossible for Sarah to live outside with her children.

I think Sarah and Lady Egerine understand this, and that's why they put their hopes in me, hoping that I, a foreigner, can bring them a little help or help.

In fact, they don't know, and I'm even more unbearable than they are. Even when my parents died in the most poverty and crisis, I still had to take my sister to earn a living, but I still had the inheritance left by my parents and the protection brought by insurance. I have never worried about life problems, and when I encountered Ding Ding, even if I encountered a big crisis, I could always get the good fortune to turn everything around in difficult times. So if Sarah wants to get experience from me, it's impossible.

But......

The human realm and the earth realm are different! At least in terms of communication, the land boundary is more than 10,000 times worse than the human world.

I really don't know what could help Sarah's experience, but I have read a lot of miscellaneous books, and I believe that I will be able to find a way to help Sarah in the end.

And at this time, when talking about history and connecting with Sarah's situation, what came to my mind first?

Guerrilla warfare!

Even if the next moment I thought that this experience was meaningless to Sarah, who was alone and had to feed a large family, the thought still popped into my head.

Guerrilla warfare certainly doesn't work, but it seems that there was a similar situation at that time.

What is it? The story of feeding a base behind enemy lines with the strength of a very small number of soldiers. Let me think about it, what kind of story is that? (To be continued......)
