Because of Livka's exclamation, everyone in the team stopped moving forward, and everyone looked in the direction she was pointing at.

I saw that not far away, next to the pile of rocks hidden by trees, there was a dilapidated city wall, from a few pieces of rubble scattered on the ground, it can be seen that that section of the city wall was once made of large pieces of bluestone, but now, on that section of the broken city wall, covered with green and black moss, and also crawled with vines and plants covered with big green leaves.

Occasionally, one or two smaller birds and monsters, howling their displeasure with "Woo Woo Woo ...... Woo Woo

The noonday sun was very violent, as if it was burning with rage, but the vicious sunlight still could not penetrate the slightly sparse small forest, and the forest was gloomy and gloomy, as if shrouded in a faint green smoke with a strange atmosphere, which seemed mysterious and terrifying.

"Where is that, is it a lost city?" After everyone was gathered, Livka turned to look at Wang Xu and asked him softly, with an expectant look in her eyes as she spoke, she seemed to think that Wang Xu should know everything.

"Looking at the architecture, it should be a city of trolls, and it looks like a city that has been abandoned by the trolls. Wang Xu actually didn't know much about this place, although he had heard of such an ancient city ruin in the past, but this was the first time he had seen this ruin with his own eyes, after all, this ruin has been standing in this place for thousands of years, even if there was anything valuable left in it, it must have been taken away by the scavengers, and it is absolutely impossible that there is anything in it that will be left to the present.

"I didn't expect that Atagan, the capital of the Troll Empire, would become what it is today," Nilou, who had a worried look on her face, suddenly interjected, and when she said this, her brows were twisted very seriously, and her eyes were always fixed on the ruins not far away, "The Troll Empire, but the great empire that rules the entire eastern continent, how could it become like this?"

After listening to Nilou's deep groan, except for Wang Xu's disdainful smile, the rest of the people all frowned, pursed their lips, shook their heads slightly, and looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.

"Why, you say!" Nilou turned suddenly, raised her eyebrows, stared straight into Wang Xu's eyes, her eyes flashed with anticipation and doubt, "Why would a huge empire abandon its capital and let it decay in time?"

Listening to Nilou's question, looking at Nilou's eyes, Wang Xu pursed his lips, skimmed the corner of his mouth on the left side, and raised his hand to scratch the tip of his nose, and then, his heart said, I am not a hundred thousand why, you ask me what I do, you have to figure out the identity between the two of us, although you are a legendary female god, but I am the slave owner, you are just a female slave, I can usually understand your feelings, do not point fingers at you, you are good, have been yelling at me, which of us is the boss?

Although his heart was full of dissatisfaction, Wang Xu did not show this dissatisfaction in his expression, nor did he complain, because he felt that losing his temper with a woman would make him very cheap, and he would also appear to be stingy.

"I don't know," Wang Xu replied in a low voice, shrugging his shoulders at Nilou, spreading his hands, squinting his eyes, "I was born after the bankruptcy of the Troll Empire, and I have no interest in an ancient empire like this, which has long been submerged in the dust of history. ”

"Then you can tell me too, I want to hear your opinion," Nilou began to show the paranoid side of her personality again, she just wanted Wang Xu to say her opinion, if Wang Xu didn't say it, she would be entangled to the end, "From the means you used to deal with Tieru, I can see that your cognitive ability is different from all of us, your knowledge system is also different from ours, you can see what we can't understand, and you can think of things that we can never think of, so I want to hear your opinion." ”

After listening to what Nilou said, except for Wang Xu's embarrassed face, the rest of the people, all nodded slightly, agreed, after a few days of difficult journey, the difference between people is also vividly reflected, they all see, Wang Xu and themselves, is indeed completely different, in their opinion, Wang Xu is the kind of mysterious person, everyone knows that he is very strong, but they don't understand, why he is so weak, everyone knows that he is very smart, but they don't know, why he is always asking for everyone's opinions, and he himself almost never makes decisions。

"Well, in that case, I'll say a few words. In fact, the reason why Wang Xu would answer Nilou's question was also because Wang Xu saw that Nilou began to be paranoid again, if she didn't give her a satisfactory answer, then she would repeatedly entangle herself like a psychopath.

"There are two reasons for the decline of the trolls. Wang Xu moved out of his rosewood Taishi chair, put it behind him, sat on it, and then, cocked Erlang's legs, and after everyone found a place to sit down, Wang Xu took a deep breath and said: "The first reason is the shallow reason, that is, the external cause, because of the war, the original troll clan is quite powerful, but it is because of the war with the elves for hegemony in the eastern continent, they lost several battles in a row, and were even attacked by the elves into the capital, so they will give up the city." ”

"This is only the superficial reason, not the main reason," Wang Xu smiled coldly, raised his eyes and swept around the natives of the Loren world sitting around him, and continued to whisper to them: "The real reason is the collective corruption of the troll nobles, after the troll clan became the overlord of the eastern continent, their martial folk customs gradually changed, this change started from the top down by the nobles, with the passage of time, the troll nobles gradually indulged in fine wine and food and extravagant women. Will, wisdom, and foresight have gradually declined in a life of ease and luxury, and the aristocracy has become so, and from the top down, the commoners have become so. “

"This is not the end, as the nobles are dissatisfied with the status quo, they want to get more wealth, more beautiful women, more extravagant life, and more power, so," Wang Xu squinted his eyes and glanced at Warren and the others, and then said: "The infighting between the nobles began, at first it was a struggle for power, the purpose was just to get more power, and later, the struggle escalated, becoming more and more bloody. The low-level nobles are dissatisfied with the monopoly of power by the old aristocratic family, they will take various means to snatch power from the old nobles, and even directly annihilate human nature, completely destroy the old aristocratic family, so as to replace them, so that every day, the troll clan will have new nobles born, old nobles will be eliminated, there will be bloody killings, and there will be ......"

After a pause, Wang Xu glanced at the people around him with a sneer, and said in a deep voice: "This kind of thing not only happens in the troll race, but also in the human race, and it is also common in the elf race, I think, in a few hundred years, the elf race will repeat the history of the decline of the troll race, and then, the human race will come again, maybe, the elf race will soon have to give up their current capital - the city of the elements, and start exile!"

After listening to Wang Xu's hypothesis about the decline of the troll race, as well as Wang Xu's judgment on the future of mankind, Lifka, Warren, Downs, and Thornton, who are human nobles, frowned and lowered their heads at the same time, each falling into their own complicated thoughts.

In Old Warren's view, the history of the decline of the troll race told by Wang Xu is so similar to everything that happens to the human race today, and the human nobility has generally become corrupt and degenerate, and they have generally fallen into the whirlpool of power and profit, and they have all embarked on the road of destruction that the troll race once walked.

In Lifka's opinion, since only Wang Xu can see the deep reasons for the destruction of the troll clan, then he must also be able to solve these problems, now that human beings are on the road of self-destruction, human beings need Wang Xu to guide the maze.

In the eyes of young Downs and Thornton, there is no way to solve the conflict between the nobles, because if their own family does not deal with other nascent noble families, then other noble families will definitely deal with their own family.

After three or four minutes, Nilou suddenly exclaimed, "You're right, these reasons can indeed destroy an empire, and they can indeed make a race lose itself, since you know the reasons for the destruction of the race, then, do you have a solution?"

"No," Wang Xu laughed dryly, and then, spread his hands, and then, skimming the corners of his mouth on the right side, with an indifferent tone, he replied in a low voice: "Greed is the nature of all people, how can it be possible for people to give up the pursuit of beautiful things, if I were a former nobleman of the troll clan, I would be like them, constantly pursuing a life of luxury and corruption, and constantly chasing the beauty of power." ”

"You!" Nilou was very angry, her breathing became rapid, the frequency of her chest rising and falling became faster and faster, it seemed that she was a little out of breath, she twisted her eyebrows into a "Chuan" word, with a complicated gaze in her eyes, "I thought you were the hope of the elves in the future, you can save the elves in decline, but your attitude makes me hate, do you really not care about the future of the elves at all?"

"Uh-huh," Wang Xu nodded slightly, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and whispered to Nilou: "I was exiled by the elves, I didn't do anything wrong, I was exiled, although I don't care much about being exiled, but when the elves exiled me, it means that they have given up on me, so, from that day on, there is no relationship between me and the elves, unless they give me money, otherwise, I will not do anything for them." ”

"You ......" Nilou's body trembled a little when she was angry, she raised her hand and pointed at Wang Xu, her fingertips kept trembling, "Are you ......?"

"You don't have to worry too much," Seeing that Nilou was about to have a stroke of her own anger, Wang Xu quickly interrupted her words and explained softly: "Although the elven clan is in continuous decline, it is still far from the time of their demise, at least, this time, the demon clan will not be able to destroy the elf clan, and it will be difficult to say next time, but at least the fate of the elf clan will not be as miserable as the troll clan!"

"Cough, cough......" An intermittent coughing sound came from behind everyone, and I saw that the troll lord Skoll, who had been carried all the way by the alchemy puppet, slowly walked to Wang Xu's side.

"Are you awake?" Wang Xu raised his eyes to look at Skoll in a tattered armor, looked at his fox-like face, looked at his green skin, and laughed in a low voice, "Or, you finally got up." ”

"Heh, heh......" Skaul smiled softly, sat down on a square bluestone next to Wang Xu with some difficulty, looked at Wang Xu with a smile, and said embarrassedly: "I was discovered by you, I did wake up a long time ago, but I didn't have the strength to walk, so I continued to pretend to be asleep and let the alchemy puppet carry me." ”

Before Wang Xu could answer him, Scowl coughed violently a few more times, and after clearing his throat, he continued: "I listened to what you told about the two reasons why our troll clan gave up the holy city of Atagan, and you are completely right, but there is another reason that you don't know, and you can never guess, that is the past that our troll clan does not want to mention, no one knows about it except ourselves, and now, I want to tell you about the past that happened in the holy city of Atagaon two thousand years ago...... ”
