Chapter Thirty-Eight: To the Snowfield
Al was concerned about the sins of Grouhi's mouth. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info For hundreds of years, only orcs have been invading humans, and only they have committed sins against humans, so how can humans commit sins against orcs.
It's just that I care about it in my heart, but I can't expose it in my mouth. Then the initiative of the words could not be in his own hands, and Al did not even turn around, his tone of disdain and deep contempt.
"The sins committed by human beings? Sure enough, the orcs are all indistinguishable from right and wrong, so it seems that your so-called glory is just the product of self-deception, and you who don't even understand good and evil know what glory is?"
Sure enough, the word glory is the death den of the orcs, Groushi didn't think about it, and retorted excitedly: "Either you don't know anything, or you humans shamelessly forget history, you humans have now forgotten the felonies committed against us orcs thousands of years ago, and humans are really a ruthless and unrighteous race." ”
A thousand years ago, when the Five Kingdoms were fighting (Chapter 5), what did humans do to orcs? Al's curiosity could not be contained, it was originally just a whim, and this orc really brought him a great surprise.
Al turned and looked directly at Grouchy, "Since you said that humans have committed serious crimes against orcs, what kind of crime is it?
Grouchy stammered, "This history was told to me by the elders, and the details will not be known until you become an elder." Grouch was even more annoyed when he saw the sneering look on Al's face, "That's exactly what happened".
"Unlike your vile humans, the Elder does not lie. ”
Al stared at Grouchy, his face full of righteous words, not a heartless reaction to lying, rolling his eyes or shifting his gaze. In his heart, he was more inclined to believe that what this orc said was true, that no orc would lie in the name of the elder, and that even if it was true, it was pointless.
Self-esteem that is whitewashed with lies? That's just a castle in the air. Dignity comes from inner strength, not from external discourse.
The wise man of the orcs would not do such a stupid thing.
"The rest of the orcs have withdrawn early, and if they have been marching hastily, they will be almost in the snow by now. ”
"What?" Grouch was stunned, he didn't expect Al to tell him like that.
Without saying a second time, Al turned to leave, and the diminutive figure compared to the caged orcs slowly melted into the darkness and was no longer to be seen.
After coming out of the dungeon, Al searched around and finally found Medea, and asked the witch, who claimed to have read all the books of the Mage Guild, about the melee of the Five Kingdoms.
"Why do you ask about this? There is no record of the melee between the Five Kingdoms, nor in the Mage Guild. It is precisely because most of the previous records of magic have disappeared that the study of magic is now so difficult, almost starting from scratch. ”
"Did you find a magic book from a thousand years ago?
Al couldn't laugh at the brains of this off-line teacher, she was usually two people compared to the witch when she fought with the orcs, and Al even suspected that Medea was schizophrenic and had a second personality. Either this teacher is a master of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, usually this look is pretended, if this is the case, Al can only bow to the ground and capitalize the word "service".
With a lot of effort, Al finally got rid of Medea's entanglement. I became more and more curious, the history of the melee between the five countries seemed to be a taboo, there was no relevant record in the history books, and even if there were, it only described the tragedy of the war, without specific information. The mage's research on magic has also been completely disconnected, and thousands of years ago, there was no primitive understanding and record of the elements of human beings, and not a single word could be found. Add to that what the orcs say is a felony that humans have committed.
What happened a thousand years ago, and what happened during the five-nation war?
Al, who is immersed in various suspense films and criminal investigation dramas on Earth, said that there must be something strange in this. Al even suspected that the Dark Magic Catastrophe might have something to do with this history, otherwise it would not explain where the dark mages who had never heard of, never seen, or revealed their traces came from, and how they could have such great power and power.
If we can find their origins at the roots, it may play a decisive role in the future response to the scourge of the dark arts.
Bold reasoning, small verification. Whenever there is a clue, Al decides to find out.
The breakthrough is, of course, what Grouchy calls a serious crime committed by humanity. After all, from the elders of the orcs, you can learn the origin of history. The difficulty is that the human race has just fought with the orcs, and the orcs have suffered extremely heavy losses, so it can be said that there was a deep blood feud between the two races, and now the old wounds have not recovered and new hatreds have been added. How can you get the orc elders to speak out?
There's also a thorn stuck in Al's heart. Unlike some of the Dark Elves, almost all of the Orcs have become puppets of the Dark Mages during the Scourge of the Dark Arts, which has always been incredible. Because even if they use the black magic of brainwashing, it is too impossible to completely control a race. And when he led the rebels to fight against the dark mages in the previous life, he didn't see them use the black magic of brainwashing against the rebels.
So El had always had the idea of going to the tribe of the orcs and talking to their elders. Observe what went wrong and, if possible, avoid the outcome of the orcs becoming puppets of the Dark Mage.
After careful weighing, Al finally made a decision: he was going to let Grouch take him to the tribe of the orcs, and he was going deep into the snowy fields!
Naturally, it was impossible to tell the Duchess who stayed behind in the Snow Fortress about this matter, and she knew with her feet that she would never agree. And in order to slip out for a long time, Medea must be pulled in.
Since Medea broke into the camp alone, rescued Eyre, and guarded the Snow Fortress alone, the Duchess and Duchess are very grateful to her and trust her a lot, if Medea takes El out for a period of time, presumably the Duchess will agree.
"You want to go to the tribe of the orcs, little El, did you get shot in the head on the battlefield and go crazy?"
"It's not just me, you're going to come with me, teacher. ”
Medea gave a "I'm not crazy yet" expression and looked at Al sympathetically, ready to do her own thing. It's a pity that it's rare for me to accept a student, and it's even more rare to have a little talent, I was quite optimistic about him, but now I'm crazy.
Is this the so-called jealousy of God? Medea swept tears of sympathy for herself.
