Chapter 044: Demon Crystal
Heaven and earth conscience, Lytton swore to heaven that he really didn't mean to make things difficult for the captives. How did he know that Adam means 'red earth' in the Turbulent language?
Such a local name made him a little nostalgic for a friend who took an English name in stinky ways, and it was called Adam. It would be interesting if this guy was also called 'Red Clay'.
Well, Litton had a moment of distraction.
After reminiscing, he glared at the captive Adam viciously first, using it as a deterrent......
Well, where will he interrogate anything?
He didn't even get a chance to be interrogated. The biggest regret in this life is ...... I haven't won an award, and I haven't had a heat...... caused him to reminisce about his short life in the afterlife, but found that he didn't even have the capital to brag. Such a discovery is very frustrating, isn't it?
"Name!"
"Adam!"
"Name!"
"Adam!"
……
Five or six rounds later, the two of them stared at each other as if they were vindictive, and Lytton raised the stick in his hand, the meaning could not be simpler, and the punishment was about to begin again. The captive Adam twisted his body bound to the trunk of the tree in horror, and said in alarm, "What are you going to do?" ”
"What? You're not honest! ”
Litton huffed, he thought the Fire Demon captive was deliberately angry with him. This guy just can't fight! Preferential treatment of captives anyway...... Nor is it his tradition.
"Where am I being dishonest?" The captive Adam said he was very aggrieved, his eyelids drooped, and the corners of his mouth were bitter and innocent.
Lytton said, "What is your name?" ”
"My name is Adam!"
"What's Adam's last name?"
"The surname is Ya, and the name is deserved!"
"And that's what it's called?"
Adam then understood the reason why he almost encountered Lytton's murder just now, of course, he could only despise it in his heart, the natives who had never traveled far in his life, did not even have the least knowledge. With a flattering look on his face, he explained: "Ya is a surname, which is unique to the Protoss...... Oops......"
No need to guess, the captive Adam was beaten again. Of course, this level of beating is nothing to him. It has nothing to do with criminal law. If it was a brutal interrogation, the captive Adam would only have one thought now, regretting his life.
"It's a demon!" Gesang corrected.
How can a person under the eaves not bow his head? The captive Adam could only admit aggrievedly that he was a demon.
The interrogation continued, and Lei Ju and the others on the side began to get sleepy. Lytton's interrogation was inspiring. Soft, it doesn't play a deterrent role at all. According to Lei Ju and the others' thoughts, interrogation? Even if you don't ask anything, at least break both legs at the beginning. But what about Lytton, how much pain can it be to hold a stick, even if it is a blow to the head? Even Gesang began to wonder if Litton was deliberately trying to let Adam go.
"Origin."
Adam looked at Lyton in confusion.
"Where were you born and where do you live?" Lytton sighed secretly, he wouldn't interrogate, he had only been in the wilderness for a few days! So might you get used to all the wild rules? In fact, he didn't even know most of the rules of the wilderness, let alone get used to it. As for the interrogation, he could only follow the map and ponder.
"Fire King."
"Class?"
Adam was very clear about the word, and said casually: "Sergeant Major." ”
"What rank is Sergeant Major?" Lytton asked Gesang softly, and it turned out that the soil buns of the Manniu tribe could not tell Lytton about the entire state of the wilderness. Especially in the face of the civilized world of which they are unaware.
However, Gesang was not much better than the people of the Manniu tribe, and he did not know the position of sergeant. I could only shake my head and say, "I don't know." ”
Lytton looked at the captive Adam and asked a different question: "How many people are in charge of the army?" ”
"30 people."
Now Lytton has a spectrum in his heart, and it turns out to be a platoon commander in the army. He used this analogy to easily distinguish the size and structure of the opposing army.
"Gender?"
"Huh?" Captive Adam said he didn't understand!
"Li Zao went to see ......"
At the moment when Li Zao shamelessly picked up the captive Adam's battle skirt with a stick, he finally understood the true meaning of 'gender', and hurriedly replied: "Male, male." ”
Lytton is actually going through the motions, where can he really interrogate! In later generations, he was neither a policeman nor a criminal, and he would not have access to this kind of battle of wits and courage at all. So, he said casually: "Do you know our policy?" ”
The word 'policy' appeared strangely in the wilderness, and even Lytton was stunned. Good guys, said bald. Fortunately, he also guided wittily: "Do you understand frankly?" Do you understand resistance? ”
Captive Adam nodded confusedly, he could more or less guess the meaning of the young leader's words. But there are some things he really doesn't dare to say! The meaning of the name is 'red soil', such a child, no matter how you look at it, does not look like the son and young master of a powerful family, most of them are children from a commoner family.
Captive Adam was no exception, he was a mere civilian, serving in the army for many years before attaining the rank of sergeant major. But a little person is a little person after all, and he needs to have the consciousness of being a little person. Not to mention betraying the big guys, even if he annoys the big guys, it's not something he can afford to offend.
In the ensuing questioning, Lytton felt awkward, and the captives were obviously not very cooperative, 'I don't know', 'I don't know', 'I don't know', 'my boss ordered'...... Words like this pervade fill almost all the conversations.
Litton kept smiling, which made the captive Ya naively think that Litton was just a chick with an identity, originally, he was a young man, but he was the leader of a tribe, which shows that he has no other skills except for being reincarnated. But soon, he wouldn't think so, and Lytton continued to ask a few words.
The captive Adam still pretended to be dazed and said, "I'm just a small person, how can I know." ”
But immediately, the situation changed abruptly, Lidton's face sank, and he said in a stiff tone: "Are you going to resist to the end?" ”
"What?"
The captive Adam hadn't turned the corner yet, and why did Lyton, who was still sunny just now, change in a blink of an eye. Of course, he didn't understand what Lytton meant by 'stubborn to the end'. But he knew that Lytton was angry, just as he was beginning to get frightened. Litton turned his head to Lei Ju and the others and said, "Let this blind guy have a long memory, just don't kill him." ”
Gesang volunteered: "Let me come." ”
Litton doesn't care whether Gesang has a personal vendetta or vents his personal anger, in short, he doesn't care. The bloody scene was better seen less, and Lytton began a day of patrol work in the tribe. There was a terrible howl behind him, and the self-righteous Fire Demon captive had finally been taught his lesson for his contempt.
He didn't want to think about it, Lei Ju and the others had destroyed one of his search teams, and the twelve soldiers all died under the butcher's knives of Lei Ju and the others.
Could the leader of such a guy be a kind-hearted living bodhisattva?
Apparently not.
After a round and turn, Lytton returned to the edge of the woods, and could still hear the screams of the captive Adam, but it was clear that this fellow had suffered a lot of crimes, and his confidence was obviously not so strong, and the screams were much lower.
And Lytton's appearance made him realize the fate of his continued stubborn resistance...... He will be played to death by these wild natives, as miserable as a cat playing with rats.
"I say, I say, I say everything."
Adam, who was about to become a bloody man, hugged Lytton's leg and howled miserably, and there was even a cry in his voice. This made Lytton very awkward, and his heart said, "It's a soft bone!" ”
Adam's confession not only stated the purpose of the fire demon to recruit the goshawk tribe, yes, it was for the boulder ruins.
And also said that many tribes could not tell him information, basically belonging to the history of the demon race. But this kind of history should be listened to in reverse, which is basically in line with the history of the wild tribes. It turned out that the fall of the Second Divine Kingdom was because the demons discovered the use of the magic crystal, and according to Litton's understanding, the magic crystal should be something similar to energy.
This kind of material provided the demons with a large number of weapons and the confidence to resist, and the war began ten thousand years ago and lasted for hundreds of years before the dust settled.
The ruling class has been completely defeated, and the demons have completely lost the ability to destroy their opponents.
Both sides fought poor and white, and became called Hanako.
The difference is that the demons occupy the most fertile land in the wilderness, while the Protoss, as the ruling class, can only find the mountains and forests, and in the long history that followed, the Protoss continued to divide and have civil strife. led to the complete severance of the inheritance, and the Wild Bull Tribe was one of them. The only thing that holds the tribe together is blood.
Speaking of which, the Protoss is not an omnipotent race, but it is only by having a bloodline that it has gained dominance. And the bloodline is not omnipotent, and in the face of the tide of demons, it can only be the result of defeat. Of course, the biggest reason for this is that the bloodline is too rare, and the inheritance can basically only be left to one child, at most two children. And the demons are originally ordinary people, most of them are slaves, and all their children are basically the same as long as they are adults.
Lytton finally understood part of the history of the wilderness, the result of a powerful race being defeated by its own genetics.
The reason why the stronger race is defeated by the weaker race is because the number of offspring is not equal.
As for the magic stone?
This is just a temptation, even if there is no magic crystal, the noble Protoss will also decline. Because they are destined to be unable to breed more ruling classes, they can only drown in the vast sea of the people's war. Sadly, the demons, who were originally slaves, still appeared nobles and commoners after turning over into serfs and singing, which has to be said that human beings are really a complex group.
The only thing that makes Lytton a little unhappy is that he is now a vulnerable group.
Originally, there was still a noble bloodline, but it was useless, and now the continent has been occupied by demons.
Besides, the demon is not a terrifying demon monster, this is just relying on his super breeding ability like a rabbit to become the master of the entire continent, that's all.
At first, the two were still interrogated, but after two hours, the conversation between the two was like an ordinary exchange. Eventually, Litton found two magic crystals among the loot he had picked up.
It looks quite ordinary, but the color is quite bright, fiery red, with a crystal-like luster and transparency.
After handing over the captives to the night watchman, Lytton began to study the magic stone in his chieftain's territory, a soft haystack.
"Huh."
The magic stone in the palm of his hand surprised him slightly, and it seemed that a warm current flowed from the palm of his hand and rushed to his arm......
