"Merlin, you know I'm an outsider, why did you remind me to run away? If I'm not mistaken, the elves here seem to regard outsiders as enemies. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Merlin shook her head and said, "Not all outsiders are bad people, you must at least figure it out before you start." Also, you have a smell of being close to the forest, so you won't be a bad person. ”
"Yes, yes, I'm a good person. The last time Reilly heard such a simple distinction was on Earth, which also showed that Merlene's simplicity was comparable to that of the children in the ivory tower.
"But why are they chasing you?"
Merlin's face darkened, and she said, "Many of our thoughts are different from those people, so they want to force us to submit through this method, and these people don't want to kill me, they just want to capture me back so that they can force my people to give in." ”
"Can you tell me about any differences in your thinking?" said Reilly, intriguing.
Merlin hesitated for a moment before saying: "That's the case, we don't want to participate in the war with outsiders, the Great Elder thinks that we should try to contact with outsiders, not blind hostility, she said that outsiders change every once in a while, we need to contact outsiders, we can't lock ourselves in the forest forever, otherwise our plane will fall sooner or later." ”
Reilly nodded and said, "Your Great Elder is very far-sighted. ”
With the gap between Norland and Midorimori, it was only a matter of time before the latter was planeped. However, the situation on the Plane is different if it is willing to cooperate. For the pioneers, it is not necessary to occupy the entire plane to be successful, in the vast majority of cases, it is a wise choice to occupy a part of the land and then turn to defense, and then open up new planes. When the plane war reaches a certain stage, the input will skyrocket, but the gain will not increase much. In this way, there is a possibility of compromise between the inhabitants of the Plane and the outsiders.
In fact, for the inhabitants of the Plane, the arrival of Reilly and the others is not entirely a bad thing. If the elves can adopt the policy of reform and opening up, the green forest plane may not be able to embark on the road of rapid development like China in the 80s.
Merlin sighed and said, "It's not that simple, the other elven tribes almost all adhere to the ancient tradition of waging an endless war against outsiders, so we are very isolated, and more importantly, the will of the World Tree is also to destroy all outsiders." ”
"It's normal for the World Tree to be bent on destroying outsiders. Reilly shrugged his shoulders and said, "Our arrival may not be a bad thing for Midori Forest, but it will certainly shake his dominance." The old green onion has always regarded the green forest as his own private property, and will never allow others to touch this cake. ”
Merlin sighed and said, "This is self-defeating. ”
"There are those who would rather die on the throne than lay down their pride. Reilly spread his hands and said, "So, what are you going to do next?"
"Next...... Next I'm going to go to the Aoba tribe to enlist their support, it's a big tribe, their tree of life has reached the late stage of maturity, and it's only one step away from becoming a complete body, and some of their elders have a relatively gentle attitude towards outsiders. ”
"Which tribe do the people who are chasing you belong to?"
"It's the people of the Wind, Rain, and Water Sound tribes, and they're only slightly weaker than the Aoba tribe. Merlin's face was wary.
"I see. Reilly nodded and asked, "Then do you know how many elven tribes there are nearby?"
"I know of nine, but there should be some tribes nearby that I don't know about. The elven girl said very calmly, not thinking about whether it was appropriate for her to disclose such important information to an outsider.
Reilly thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, I'll send you to the vicinity of the Aoba tribe." ”
Merlin couldn't refuse, the elf girl knew how bad her condition was, and she didn't know if she would have been able to reach the Aoba tribe safely without Reilly.
"Thank you. Merlin nodded and said, "You're a good person." ”
"Can you tell us about your tribe?" asked Reilly, curious.
Merlin sighed and said, "Let's talk as we go." ”
It turns out that the tribe of eternal night to which the girl belongs is different from other elves, and it itself is inextricably linked to outsiders, and it is impossible to be recognized. Although the Eternal Night Tribe has been recognized by the Will of the Forest, this only makes the World Tree even more fearful, he is like a nervous emperor who can't see the uncontrollable forces in his territory.
The Eternal Night Tribe was able to gain a foothold in the forest sea, mainly because they had a strong Great Elder, who had a "meeting" with the elders of the three major tribes alone, and the result was that the three tribes took the initiative to move the Tree of Life five hundred kilometers away. On the other hand, the Eternal Night Tribe is also full of talents, and almost every generation will have a son of the forest or a daughter of the forest who has been recognized by the will of the forest, which is a strong evidence that the Eternal Night Tribe has been recognized by Lin Hai. However, the attitude of the other elves did not change, and they rejected the Eternal Night Tribe even more.
If you think of Limhai as a country, then its system is a liberal democracy, the status of the World Tree is equivalent to the president, and the Tree of Life is the parliamentarian, and the parliament formed by them (the will of the forest) rules over Limhai, but it is not supreme, and it is the rules (equivalent to the constitution) that can really decide everything. The bloodline of the Eternal Night Elves resonates with the rules, so their tribe will always have a Son of the Forest or a Daughter of the Forest, and even if the other Living Trees and World Trees oppose it, it will not change the outcome.
The World Tree has always regarded the Green Forest Plane as its own property, but now an uncontrolled tribe of the Eternal Night has emerged, and this tribe has become a thorn in its side.
The crisis of the Eternal Night Tribe stemmed from an accident a few months ago, when the Great Elder had gone out for some reason and had returned with a mortal injury, and the Tribe's Tree of Life had used all the strength it had accumulated for the last hundred years to barely save her life. The pillars of the Eternal Night Tribe collapsed, and the surrounding guardian elves immediately became ready to move, and the most powerful of them, the Twilight Tribe, could not hold back and actually demanded a merger.
The so-called merger is not only that the people of the two tribes live together, but also the requirements of blood, specifically that several clans of the children of the forest in the Eternal Night tribe must marry with the Twilight tribe, and the children born will all be from the Twilight tribe.
"Does the Twilight Tribe have additional requirements for you?" asked Reilly.
Since the other party's goal is the bloodline inheritance of the Eternal Night Tribe, it is impossible to let Merlin, the daughter of the forest, go.
The girl's little face immediately turned blue, and the conversation between the two ended there.
