Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Tragic History of the Subhuman Race

There are many different subhuman races, many of which are powerful races like walrusmen, but many more are weak races that may not even have developed a healthy intelligence. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This weakness is often the original sin of destruction when it encounters human beings with a strong desire for expansion and conquest.

Since humanity became the overlord of the continent, countless sub-human races have been brutally enslaved. In this process, it is not that there are no sub-humans who choose to resist, but the results of resistance are always getting worse and worse.

The Cabachia Mountains, once within the empire's borders, were originally home to some of the largest subhuman settlements on the entire continent. There are more than 170 subhuman races living in it. However, it was because of their opposition to the Empire's slave trade that these subhumans formed their own armed groups and attacked Imperial slave catchers with military backgrounds. And then there was no more then.

The Empire's armies directly bloodied the entire Cabachian Mountains, and then brought hundreds of thousands of subhumans into all strata of the Empire. A huge number of subhuman slaves were provided for the entire empire. Even hundreds of years later, descendants of these slaves still exist in the composition of the empire. Of course, they are still slaves.

This cruel method of harming future generations has brought the entire subhuman race to a crush. They have taken refuge in places where humans cannot set foot in the hope of perpetuating their race in this way. But no matter where they run, they can't escape the sight of humanity completely.

Humanity is pressing on every once in a while, and every once in a while, a group of sub-human tribes are poisoned by humans. Even if the sun goes down on the empire, this situation will not change. Because the League of Kingdoms took over the class of the Empire, it began to get involved in this special industry with great profits.

This is unfortunate news, as the persecution of the sub-human race is intensifying. And apparently, today there is another poor ethnic group that is being persecuted by them.

Two thousand subhuman slaves, which is almost equal to the entire population of an entire subhuman tribe. Of course, this population is the answer that comes from all the old, weak, sick and disabled, plus those who resist. There are bound to be more dead than alive, and there is no way around it. Because this is the bloody slave trade, the dirtiest of trades.

With a sigh of emotion in his heart, Hiko asked the kingdom merchant who quoted the price.

"So, Mr. Merchant. Can you tell me which race you're trying to give? If you're offering kobolds, subhumans who can't eat and scream for anything but food, then I'm sorry to tell you that we can't accept your offer. ”

"Of course, who would waste their work on a kobold. Standing up and looking around as a victor, the double-headed eagle merchant belonging to the Grand Duke of Brittdam in the Kingdom of Veron laughed. "I assure you, young man. These sub-humans are definitely strong and have special skills. The Nebru Spider-Man of the Underworld is known as the most dexterous weaver in the entire world, an excellent miner and caretaker. Such a subhuman race should be able to satisfy the Nords, right?"

The regional representative of the Double-Headed Eagle Chamber of Commerce said this with a smile. But after hearing his words, Hiko directly sank his face and showed a gloomy look. Not only him, but all the Nords present reacted in the same way. They stared at the rampant merchant with fierce eyes, and the fierce and aggressive gaze immediately caused the guy who had been laughing a moment to slowly retract the smile on his face, and then gradually became embarrassed.

"What's going on, what's wrong?"

His reaction made the ash elves around him immediately sneer with disdain.

"Stupid, I didn't even understand the traditions of the Nords, and I dared to come here. I think you're a little bit too long!"

The Ash Elf's taunt made the merchant's face flush at once, but he still didn't understand why the Nords reacted the way they did. And at this time, Hiko, who was standing on the stage, spoke.

"This gentleman, I would like to ask, don't you know that in the Seal War in the Middle Ages, we Nords made an oath to be the protectors of the six subhuman races forever?"

"Seal wars in the Middle Ages?" As an ordinary businessman, he may have a good ability to sneak around and climb into camps. But apparently, he didn't know much about this kind of ancient historical fact, which was only recorded in the history of the various races. Not to mention the specific situation of the Seal War, he may not even be able to distinguish the difference between the ancient and the middle.

In fact, the whole world is only human beings who are obscured and obscured by these distant histories. Others, including even some sub-human races who do not even have their own writing, have detailed records of this period of history.

This is what happened 20,000 years ago, when the Titans faded out of the sight of all races, and the War of Order of the Ancients ended.

By that time, the Nords had already appeared above Arest. They guarded the vast ice fields by the decree of the Mother of Life, guarding the seals of the chaotic world left by the Father of Order. However, Arest is not the only place in the entire world with such a seal. In the depths of the sea, a giant sea monster accidentally broke a seal in a seaside area, allowing the power of chaos to leak into this orderly world.

The power of chaos has a powerful bewitching power, which has caused many races to be bewitched by this power, and spontaneously become sacrifices, summoning the monsters of the chaotic world to this world of order. And by the time people found out about it, it was already too late.

These monsters born out of chaos have encroached on vast swaths of land.

Their power is so great that the secular world is simply no match for it. And the world that has just experienced the ancient era, the war of the Titan order, has also become fragile because there are no new gods to ascend to the Sky Seat. Although with the help of the dragon clan, in the face of the power that can corrupt the mind, even the dragon cannot reduce his holdings for long.

At this time, the Nords formed a large army under the orders of the Mother of Life and rushed from the sea and the snowy mountains.

At that time, the Order race had little ability to build a large ship that could cross the ocean, let alone climb the Great Snow Mountain, which was almost impossible to climb. But it was thanks to the help of some subhumans that the Nords were able to overcome these obstacles from the sea, from the sky, and even from the underground caverns, and rushed to the battlefield, becoming the vanguard of resistance to chaos.

Eventually, the Nords and other allied forces overcame the terrible forces of chaos and sealed them back under the realm of Order. And to thank the subhumans who helped the Nords gain honor. The Nords and the sub-humans signed an ancient covenant.

They swore an oath never to betray, they swore an oath to always help each other. Because the Nords wanted to stay in Areste for eternity, the ancestors of the Nords at that time could only promise these subhumans that the Nords would always lend a helping hand if they asked for something. In other words, the Nords will forever shelter these six special races.

For 20,000 years, even at the height of the Empire's slave trade, no one dared to fight the idea of these six subhuman races. Because everyone who wants to do this must consider whether they can afford to kill the keel ship from the Northland.

The Nibru Spider Race, the Deep Sea Naga, the Deep Cave Snake People, the Walrus People, the Harpies, and the Dolphin People. These six races became the lucky few of the sub-human races. And now it seems that their luck is gradually being broken. The guys of the kingdom don't care about the rules of this business anymore. They extended their claws to these six subhuman races. And this is justified by the Nords as a provocation.

As a result, even the auction was no longer held. Little by little, the Nord warriors surrounded the merchants of the kingdom.

"This gentleman. Now tell us, where did you put those 2,000 Nibru spider people?"

"Why, do you want to be unruly, and take everything from me like you robbers on the sea?"

With a deep background, this businessman of the Double-Headed Eagle Chamber of Commerce seems to have no fear. As he said this, the guards around him also stood up. put on a posture of loyal protector and protected this group of big businessmen in it.

"Robber, sir, look at what you say. We Nords were originally pirates. And when it comes to not following the rules. It's also you kingdom guys who don't follow the rules first. You have broken tradition and put your hand where it should not be. So it is inevitable that there will be such a result. One last chance, tell me where those spider people are?"

By the time Hiko said this, the Nord warriors had already lifted up all the guards around the merchant like chickens. Then they were thrown out one by one like garbage.

Soon, the businessman, who had just been on his toes, was surrounded by sneering Nord warriors. And in the face of them, this big businessman can no longer put on that fearless appearance.

"What do you want, I warn you, I am a man of the Grand Duke of Brittdam. If you dare to do anything to me, the kingdom's army will never let you go. ”

"You can have them come to Areste and give it a try. I promise that the result will not be better than that of the Imperial Expeditionary Force a thousand years ago. Stop talking nonsense, tell me, where did you put those spider-men?"

The merchants of the Double-Headed Eagle Chamber of Commerce also wanted to use the kingdom's current strong military power as their talisman. But in Arest, no one wants to buy it at all. The Nords are not afraid of any enemy, not even the kingdom. A thousand years ago we were able to defeat the Empire, and we can still defeat any adversary. Therefore, such a threat of his can only be completely counterproductive.

Before Hiko could say anything more, one of the Nord warriors surrounding him had already slapped him to the ground, and then his cheek stabbed deep into the frozen ground with a single sword.

The cold blade stimulated his nerves, causing him to scream like a violated little daughter-in-law. At this time, he no longer dared to have any bargaining with the Nords. Just say the answer they want.

"On the boat, on the boat. We came with ten slave ships, all of which stopped near the harbor. The 2,000 spider-man slaves you want are all in there. ”
