Chapter Fifty-Six: Distant Trouble
Enthusiasm is what Goron felt from this banquet.
The ogre's meal is naturally very clear to him, the ogre chieftain, and every time he opens the meal, it is his most nerve-wracking moment - you never know when an ogre will be full.
Therefore, when all the ogre warriors under his command were contented, patting their stomachs to find a place to lie down and burp, he felt a good feeling for this troll clan from the bottom of his heart.
On the Osim Plateau, the most precious thing is kindness. In this world, the rarest thing is sincerity.
Of course, this banquet was not so pure and noble, he was the product of a combination of interests, whether it was Goron or Ion and Haka, they all had their own considerations in mind. But fellow goblin merchant Brion has a clear difference from the trolls, who deserves something more precious than he pays.
In one gulp, he dried the juice in the glass, and the alcohol contained in this kind of thing was completely negligible for a Golon.
"Looks like you like this fruit wine. Unfortunately, we can no longer produce this drink on a large scale. ”
Haka poured the wine to his lips as well, the feast was over, the trolls were busy or resting, the camp was in ruins, they were always on the move, and they needed a piece of land to give their souls a place to return home.
Aside from the ogre warriors, only Haka and Goron were able to chat leisurely in this busy atmosphere, which was a privilege for spellcasters, and even the patriarch of the clan, Ion, could not enjoy.
"Of course, on the Haka, Osim plateau, if strength is the rule, then grain is the best hard currency. ”
Goron, who felt comfortable because he had eaten the meat, was in high spirits and said casually.
......Yes, neither the glory nor the heavy currency has lost its usefulness in this land. It was only at this moment that I realized how fragile our ego was to be so strong. ”
"It's a shame, but ......," Goron shook his head at Haka's words, "at least magic and truth are eternal. ”
“...... Yes, magic and truth are eternal. Haka's deep voice raised slightly, clearly agreeing with Golon's words, "Your Excellency Golon, do you know why my people and I have to wander here?...... I hope you don't mind, compared to our hometown, Osim is just a barren land. ”
"It's a fact that the most elegant work of art here is the barbecue on the grill. Goron laughed twice, and the ogre's thick voice echoed under the night sky, looking a little terrifying.
However, Haka, who understood, laughed out loud in the same way: "That's right, good wine and barbecue." ”
"And blood and dawn. ”
Haha laughed for a while, and Haka's voice gradually lowered again, but it was different from the previous sigh-like tone, this time it was full of calm:
"Our Troll Empire rose in antiquity, and we believe in our ancestors, in our ancient gods. ”
"Later, under the guidance of the gods, we foresaw our enemy, an empire that had been sleeping underground. ”
"Dragons and elemental kings rule over the richest lands in the world, and trolls have no choice but to fight their enemies for generations on their own land. ”
"We progress in war, in war Chinese, in war to protect our glory. ”
"All the inhabitants of the empire have been on a mission since birth, fighting to protect their homeland. ”
"Until one day, a full-scale war broke out between the dragons and the elemental kings, and all living beings could only tremble in this war, and the trolls were no exception. ”
"Luckily, they lose both, and their vitality is so bad that it will take at least a few hundred years to recover. ”
"When the frightened mortals calmed down, they suddenly realized that they could own more land. ”
Haka said this, taking a deep breath.
But Goron felt very painful, and he dared to point to his head and swear that he had no impression of these things at all in the memories of his soul fusion.
Should I say that it really deserves to be an ogre?
As long as you think about it, such a domineering name as the Dragon Clan and the Elemental King, you can know what kind of earth-shattering fight the two sides are fighting. And these guys who eat and sleep when they are full don't pay any attention to this matter at all.
Goron suddenly thought of the huge energy fluctuation that allowed him to merge with the ogre's soul after the crossing, and now it seems that the tenth ** is the aftermath of that war.
The magnificence in Golon's heart did not affect Haka to continue his words:
"Whether it's dwarves, trolls, high elves, or even humans, there is a frenzy of fighting for land. ”
"But by this time, the royal family was no longer able to bring the inhabitants of the empire back to reason. Generations of blood feuds have made more trolls immersed in a vengeance frenzy. ”
"So, when the High Elves defeated the other races, the Troll Empire couldn't cope with the two-front battle. We...... Also had to leave our hometown. ”
Goron scratched the horn on his head and didn't choose to ask, because at this time, the true face of the so-called "underground country" fighting with the trolls in the distance didn't matter.
Of course, despite the drowsiness of his ogre's brain after eating, Goron was keenly aware of a message from Haka:
"Those elves don't have any opponents now?"
In response to Goron was a long silence, followed by a long sigh:
"The High Elves have begun to look down on the world from the clouds. ”
Goron's eyes narrowed, and his mouth moved, as if chewing on something...... Of course, it was just a matter of reminiscing about the delicious barbecue.
In fact, Haka's purpose for coming to him for a meeting this evening has been very clear.
The High Elves, who had defeated all the enemies they could see, were no longer satisfied with that little bit of land, and they were ambitious and confident, and they had already regarded the whole world as their treasure.
Whether it's a distant empire of trolls, or ...... Osim Plateau.
Goron had no doubt about the veracity of what Haka had said, and the wandering troll clan had said it all.
As for whether the elves will really brainstorm and come on an expedition to a wild land. Goron is completely reluctant to adopt an optimistic attitude, and the fanatics who burn themselves for victory and glory have evaporated into madness, even if they are wrapped in a coat of reason on the outside.
