Chapter 52: The Orcs Behind the War
Seeing the look in Scruoy's eyes, Zachary knew that the third prince of the orc kingdom was indeed a practitioner of the path of goodness. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"I don't know what you think about this war, Third Prince?" Companions who were originally walking together on the road of maintaining kindness, but at this time, because of the war between the two countries, even if they are also kind, they cannot communicate with each other.
Even though he knew that Scrooge was a hero, Zachary could only ask Scrooge what he thought about war, because in some wars, morality cannot be argued. Can you say that the orcs who fight for the future of their race are evil, in the eyes of the cubs in their clan, the orc warriors who died on the battlefield are the warriors of their orc clan.
However, for the kingdom of Reiner, these orcs who invaded their kingdom and burned their homeland to the ground were the most heinous and evil people, because the orcs suddenly tore up the treaty and started a war, so that these civilians who lived in peace and contentment could only leave their homeland with tears in their eyes.
The sound of the battle in front of the fortress of Bair has been lingering in the ears, letting everyone in the field know that although Zachary and Scrooge are like-minded, as long as the war does not end, they will one day stand on the battlefield and draw their swords against each other.
So hearing Zachary's inquiry, the smile in Skrutey's eyes gradually faded, and he looked up to meet Zachary's gaze, and the corners of his mouth flashed a wry smile, "I'm just a prince, my father is upright and prime, and it's not my turn to point fingers at the kingdom, so even if I have any views on the war, is it useful......"
"It works."
Hearing Zachary's categorical answer, Scrooge looked up at Zachary in surprise, he had no idea why this human young man would say this, maybe he didn't know much about the internal situation in their orc kingdom.
So Scrooge shook his head with a wry smile and then lowered his head, and did not express any opinion on Zachary's answer, but Cabas in the back suddenly interjected, and said to Zachary with a wry smile: "Warrior Zachary, you don't know, our prince is not favored in front of the king, and he is not as good at fighting and pleasing the king as the eldest prince, and our prince's personality also makes the ministers and clansmen in the kingdom not very supportive of the prince." ”
"So Prince Scrooge, are you just watching your own people commit violence with war?"
"We orcs are also forced to do so, the gods have lost their response, and the kingdom's natural disasters are constantly getting colder and colder, do you want me to watch my people freeze to death in the cold wind!" Scrooge's originally lowered head suddenly raised, his eyes stared at Zachary fiercely, his body exuded a majestic aura, and an unwilling low roar came out of his throat.
"You Reiners haven't been to our northern ice field, how do you know the harsh environment there! It is winter for eight months a year, the soil is poor, and my people work so hard that they can't even barely fill their stomachs! A drop of hot tears rolled and fell in Scruch's eyes, no one thought that Scrooge, the prince with a magnificent body, would burst into tears at this time, but listening to his suppressed low roar and the pain in it, Joanna and they all closed their mouths and looked at the prince of the orc kingdom silently.
"Mr. Zachary, do you know that when I was a child, I had Cabas sneak me out of the palace when it was the coldest time in the ice field, and I wanted to go out and play, but I saw my people shivering in the cold wind, and they didn't have enough clothes to cover their bodies, while I was wearing elaborate warm clothes, and I saw several children fighting in the streets over a piece of food that could only be stuffed between my teeth."
"This is a life that you humans living on warm lands cannot imagine, you have fertile land where you don't have to worry about food, you have a warm climate that makes you worry about the cold wind."
Scrooge closed his eyes, hiding the grief in his eyes that could not be concealed, the children who died in the cold wind were the hope for the future of their orc kingdom, when the children of other races could live a carefree life, why did their orc children have to endure the torture of hunger and cold, and they had to fight each other for a little food.
Are we orcs inherently inferior, aren't we! We orcs were once the overlords of this magnificent continent, and they orcs once created an empire that threatened all races on the continent, but why do we huddle on the ice field now?
"But that's never a reason to go to war, is it......"
"What else can I do?" Scrooge opened his eyes and looked at Zachary, all the grief was suppressed in his heart, and he looked at Zachary very calmly, "I don't agree with my father starting this war, but I can't come up with a better way, even if it is contrary to the goodness of my heart, I can't watch my people die in pain in the cold wind." ”
"Isn't there a god, you can pray to the goddess of harvest through the Holy Covenant, why do you have to start a war!" Joanna, who had been standing behind Zachary, suddenly spoke, knowing the consequences of this war from Zachary, she knew very well that the orcs had become the winners on the surface of this war, but they also lost their ability to resist in the catastrophe, and the orc kingdom only held out for four months before it collapsed under the evil army.
"Divine ......" Looking at Joanna, who was no more than thirteen years old, Scrooge suddenly laughed, "Those high gods have abandoned this continent, and they have completely lost their response. ”
"How is that possible!" Hearing Scrooge's words, the cavalry behind Zachary shouted in disbelief, and they all looked at their squadron leader, but the eighteen-year-old Zachary had been extremely convinced of his squadron leader with his broad knowledge and strong strength in this month.
Feeling the gaze of his subordinates on him, Zachary nodded calmly, the phase of the stars and moon at the beginning of this year is the omen of the gods falling from the kingdom of God to mortal dust, under the violent elemental tide, the kingdom of God is no longer stable, like a boat in a storm, if the gods do not want to fall in the tide, they can only abandon their godhead and descend to mortal dust.
Evil sets off wars, and the gods descend to the earth, all of which plunges the continent that has been peaceful for many years into an unprecedented catastrophe, the gods want to return to the kingdom of God, and the demon gods want the continent to become a hell full of corpses, and when these are mixed together, the creatures on the Faisal continent are almost wiped out.
"So, Prince Scrooge, can you only stand here and watch your people wage an unjust war?" Ignoring the horrors of the soldiers behind him, Zachary looked at Scrooge in front of him with a flat face, he wondered if the future orc hero had the heart to stop this war, Zachary wanted to prevent this war that would bring down a kingdom and break the bones of a kingdom, and the blood of these brave warriors should not be shed here.
