Chapter 427 [Inside Story]
Hide in a tree in the mountains.
Tonatiu and the little blue dragon witnessed the human advance of the fish-man army, and the human miners shivering.
They didn't know the ins and outs, and they didn't know why the fish-people would leave the coast so far away and run inland to find human trouble.
Looking at the terrified expressions on the faces of those human miners, the simple Stella Gosa was a little unbearable.
"Those fish-people look like thousands."
The little blue dragon whispered.
"Those humans look like they're going to suffer."
Tonatiu was noncommittal.
He was holding a simple map, frowning at his surroundings.
After a long time, he couldn't help but mutter, "This coastline. this distance. Where those fish-people are...... This place can't be a jasper cave, right? ”
"What are you talking about? Tonatiu? Look, the humans down there are going to be bad luck soon. Stellagosa stabbed him with a twig.
"Are we going to see those humans unlucky?" She whispered.
Not...... In elven form. The little star will not touch Tonatiu casually, a careless word.
Her shapeshifting spell is destroyed, revealing her true form.
Therefore, in her mortal form, she would be more than a meter away from Tonatiu.
Occasionally, if you need to touch him, you will poke him through ordinary tools that have no magic, just like now.
Just like the twigs she uses now.
Tonatiu put away his map and looked at the trembling humans below, and the fishmen marching across the mountains in the distance.
The armies of the fishmen were so numerous that the many beasts that dominated the wilderness shy away from them.
The beasts of Azeroth, if they live long enough, are often able to activate their intelligence.
After all, this is a planet with a star soul, or the kind of star soul with the greatest potential.
So much so that as long as they are born on this planet, as long as they live long enough, they will be stronger and smarter than other worlds.
So it is with the intelligent races.
The same goes for the beasts.
Seeing thousands of menacing fishmen coming with weapons, the beasts that no longer had the sight to see also knew that it was very dangerous to provoke them at this time.
Not only the house-sized spiders, but also the house-sized giant bears, or the wolves and the hill lynx, did not stand in the way of these fish people.
The scene looked spectacular.
Tonatiu thinks so.
"Tonatiu......" Little Star seemed to finally take it anymore, she whispered. Aren't we going to save those humans? They looked pitiful and scared. The fish-people will eat them. ”
The Troll King smiled.
Although he didn't know what the reason for the conflict between the fish man and the human.
However, with many Fish-Man believers under him, he knew that if he didn't have to come here, the Fish-Man would not have been able to go far inland.
It's not very far from the sea, and under normal circumstances, they wouldn't want to come to such a place.
Now they're here, and they're still targeting the dozens of human miners.
It is impossible not to have an underlying cause.
"The Blue Dragon is the guardian of magic and secrets, not the guardian of humanity." He smiled at her.
"And who do you think is right and who is wrong with these humans and fishmen below? Why do fish-people come looking for trouble? Why are there dozens of humans in this village where there are no humans in the wilderness? ”
"Uh......" Little Star shook his head honestly. I don't know ......."
"I thought it would be fun. Let's move on. Tonatiu said with a smile.
"Okay." Stella Gosa sympathizes with the humans, presumably because they are more aesthetically pleasing than the fish-men.
It's like when a lion fights a hyena on the African savannah, even if the lion has the upper hand and bullies the hyena.
As a result, many humans in front of the television set often hope that the lion will win, run away or kill the hyena.
Compared with the majestic and human-looking lion.
The appearance of the second African brother hyenas really does not conform to human aesthetics, and the result can only receive bad reviews.
If a penguin or other cute animal is killed by a lion, the human sympathy in front of the TV will immediately become a cute animal.
Even here in Blue Dragon, it is difficult for the fish-man to receive good reviews, mainly because his appearance is too inconsistent with the mainstream aesthetics of Azeroth.
What is the mainstream aesthetic of Azeroth?
It's the aesthetics of the Titans.
Whether it's humans or trolls, or gnomes or elves, they all fit the Titan aesthetic.
The difference is humans, gnomes, and dwarves, and the Titans that conform to the aesthetics are alien Titans.
The aesthetics that trolls and elves conform to are most likely in line with the aesthetics of Ai-chan.
Otherwise, the only two native empires that are thriving on the planet Azeroth will not be the Troll Empire and the Elven Empire.
For example, with dozens of humans in front of her, besieged by thousands of fishmen, Stella Gosa will have a certain amount of sympathy.
If you change to dozens of kobolds or gnolls, you will be besieged by thousands of humans here.
There's a good chance that Stella Goussa won't be sympathetic.
Without him, intelligent beings are generally appearance parties.
Born with compassion and affection for creatures that match their own aesthetics.
Seeing Tonatiu like this, Stella Gosa finally resisted the idea of helping and continued to watch quietly.
Below, the entire mine entrance and valley are surrounded by fish people.
The fish people were screaming, many of them holding a bunch of blades of grass and twigs to block out the afternoon sun shining on them.
Fish-people are able to breathe on land and can also live on land for a long time.
However, if there is no water source, the scales will dry out over time.
Even dry cracks, scales hurt.
In a burst of whining and screaming, several fishmen who were far taller and stronger than the other fishmen came out.
These fish-men, even if they are squatting. They're not much shorter than the stout human miners.
If they can stand up completely, they will be much taller than humans.
Ordinary fish are actually about the same size as dwarves, and when they are able to stand fully in the water, they are even as tall as ordinary humans.
This is much taller and stronger than the frog-sized fish-man in the game.
Tonatiu saw that one of the fishmen at the head of the group was a fishman with a staff shouting at the humans.
To his surprise and Stella Gossa's surprise, the fish-man was not the fish-man's words.
It is the lingua franca of mankind.
"Hand over the murderer! Get out of this valley, or die! ”
Concise.
"It actually speaks human language!" Little Star said in surprise.
"I'm a little surprised, too." Tonatiu followed. "And this fish-man looks like a mage!"
"That's right." The blue dragon's magic eyes can also see the magic aura on the fishman. Little Star Says:
"He's still a good mage, and he seems to be good at water elemental shaping spells."
This made Tornathiu even more curious.
Fish-people are generally very savage and cruel, and when there are so many of them, they should have stepped forward and tore all these humans apart.
Not only is there now, but there is actually a mage who reasoned with humans.
This proves that this fish-man tribe still has a certain civilization.
At this time, Tonatiu and Stellagossa heard a fellow among the humans at the same time, and responded loudly to the mer-man mage:
"Honorable Monster Leader. We have no malice, murderers...... The murderer has already run away! They abandoned us, they fled alone! Please go and punish them, rob your villages, and kill your people. ”
"Look." Tonatiu said to Little Star with a smile. "Sure enough, there is an inside story. I'll just say that the fish-people are generally fine and won't go ashore. ”
"You seem to know a lot about fish-people?" Stella Gosa asked him curiously.
Tonathiu shrugged.
"It's okay."
He said.
Stella Gosa's pretty nose wrinkled.
She is thin and long, with beautiful blue eyebrows raised high.
"I smell humanity."
"Aren't those below?" Tonatiu pointed to the shivering human miners.
"No, it's not them." Little Star said, "In the distance, there are many of them. ”
