"Grew up in the human world?" Lin Xiao looked at him for a moment, "From what age?"

Inulang let out a long breath, as if caught in a memory, and said quietly, "I have lived among humans for as long as I can remember. My stepfather, a scholar specializing in orcs at the National Academy of the Principality of Tuyue, met me in a small town on the border between the human world and the beast realm during an expedition into the beast realm. ”

"How old were you then?" Lin Xiao took the wine jug in Dog Lang's hand and took a sip before handing it to him.

"I was just a baby, and I had just been taken from the beast by a group of human adventurers, and my stepfather saw at a glance that I was a very rare iron-clad mastiff, and bought me from them for ten gold coins. Inu Lang said.

"Ten gold coins, that's a good deal!" Lin Xiao, who learned the value of the mastiff, was slightly surprised.

"Yes, my stepfather was surprised that the other party agreed to the offer immediately. However, he noticed that the team of adventurers was all in disarray, frightened, and eager to shoot me. ”

"There must be a secret in it. Lin Xiao frowned.

"Yes, my stepfather later learned through inquiries that when this adventure party entered the beast domain, there were fifty people, but only eight people returned, and all of them were injured, and only brought back my trophy. They don't say anything about what happened in the beast realm, and when someone asks what happened, everyone is terrified, like a nightmare, and they avoid it. Maybe that's why they're willing to sell me at a low price. Inu Lang said a little dazed.

"And then?"

"When my stepfather got me, he raised me himself, and at the same time made a series of observations and studies, and I lived in their house. Orcs are discriminated against in the human world, slaves, cattle, and savages. However, my stepfather, because he studied orcs deeply, knew that orcs were also humans, and they were only different from humans, and had the same emotions and intelligence, so he treated me very well, and their whole family treated me very well. A hint of tenderness slowly appeared on Inulang's face.

"Knowledge breaks down prejudice. Lin Xiao summed up seldomly.

"That's true. Inu Lang nodded, "Later, their family became more and more affectionate with me, so they simply accepted me as a righteous son." ”

"This is a shocking move in the human world, right?" Lin Xiao asked.

"That's true, it's going to cause an uproar. But my father-in-law had a way, and he made me drink a bottle of his special potion every month, which was not only good for my body, but also able to hide the unique aura of the beasts on my body, plus dyed my hair and pupils black, so that even professional orc hunters could not detect that I was an orc. From then on, I began to receive all the education of human beings and began to understand their world. A year ago, I passed the examination and entered the Army Section of the Military Command Department of the National Academy of the Principality of Tuyue. "Inu Lang has completely fallen into the memory.

"There shouldn't be many orcs like you who can truly integrate into the human world, right?" Lin Xiao asked curiously.

"It's very rare. A trace of resentment appeared on Dog Lang's face, "In the human world, there are also a small number of orcs, but humans practice racial segregation and discrimination against the orcs. Moreover, all orcs are slaves, and can be bought and sold like livestock, without personal freedom, and their masters can kill their own orcs at will. If you kill someone else's orcs for no reason, you only need to compensate his master for the corresponding number of orcs plus a small amount of compensation. And an orc must be put to death even if he slightly injures a human, and if he is seriously injured, he is executed by torture such as splitting the body, inching the body, grinding the file, etc. Humans see beasts in exactly the same way as livestock. ”

"This is too fucking bullying!" Lin Xiao was furious, he had only heard that the status of orcs in the human world was extremely low before, and this time he couldn't help but be angry after listening to Dog Lang's detailed introduction.

Dog Lang gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Not only is it absolutely impossible for the orcs to receive any education, but they can only engage in cheap work, except for serfs and maidservants, most of the women who are thin and beautiful are sold as prostitutes, and most of the young and strong men are driven to the battlefield to engage in the most dangerous tasks and become cannon fodder. ”

"The debt that humans owe to the orcs will one day be doubled!" Lin Xiao flattened the empty wine jug.

"Human beings have an infinite population, a systematic inheritance of civilization, warriors who can use the power of heaven and earth, and mages who can use the power of the elements. Although the orcs are stronger in the flesh, their population is withered, scattered, and their civilization is declining, leaving only a crazy natural skill. It's easier said than done to compete with humans. Dog Lang looked helpless.

"You said that only the innate skill of madness is left, could it be that the beast clan originally had more than the additional ability of madness?" Lin Xiao heard the mystery from Dog Lang's words.

"Yes. According to him, the beast clan once had great glory, and the strong in the beast clan used to be able to fight against the gods, not only the terrible body that can shatter the void with just his fists and feet, but also the power of heaven and earth, and even all kinds of magical spells that can borrow the power of the other world, the sun and the moon shine in every gesture, the rivers and seas change color, the mountains and the earth crack, and the stars shift. At that time, human beings were just one of the ten thousand races crawling at the feet of the beast race. ”

It was the first time to hear the past glory of his race in such detail, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel his heart fluctuate, and muttered: "Sure enough, as I estimated, our beast race is no worse than humans, but we have lost our inheritance. It must have experienced the blow of near-extinction before it caused a huge cliff-like collapse of civilization. ”

"Yes, it's not so easy to regain these inheritances! It was precisely for the purpose of wanting to know more about the history of my clan that I studied hard, and finally was admitted to the Military Command Department of the National Academy of the Principality of Tuanyue with a high score of the first in all three techniques. Dog Lang was a little proud, this was obviously a glorious past in his heart.

"Oh, how does entering a national academy help me understand the history of my people?" Lin Xiao asked.

"The large library in the National Academy is the largest library in the Principality of Tuyue, and it is also one of the best among the dozens of countries in the six southern states of the entire human world, and some of the ancient books record the history of the beast race. Inu Lang explained.

"Is there anything special you have discovered?" Lin Xiao asked anxiously.

"Judging from the records scattered in various ancient books and even ancient myths, the decline of the beast race actually began with the so-called war of gods and demons in ancient times 100,000 years ago. According to some mythological records, after that great war, the beasts lost their absolute superiority in ruling all races, and became more and more in decline. Since then, the world has entered the Middle Ages when all races competed and each led the way. But the Orcs were the most powerful race in the world throughout the Middle Ages. But since the so-called ancient times with clear historical records 10,000 years ago, with the rise of human beings, the beast race really began to collapse and regress, although there was such a return to the light of the Heavenly Flame Empire, the local temporary glory, finally was completely defeated by humans, and this world has become a human world since then. Dog Lang said.

"Have you seen any records about the Beast Clan's Holy City?" Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked hurriedly.

"Not really. Inulang shook his head slowly.

Lin Xiao was slightly disappointed, the Leopard Clan kept four treasure keys, and it was said that they could reopen the secret of the glory of the Beast Clan in the Holy City of the Beast Clan, but, the worst thing was that no one knew where the Holy City was.

"Oh, that's right!" Dog Lang suddenly exclaimed, "I remember when I was a child, I saw my father-in-law rush out of the study at home with great excitement, and told me again and again that he had found clues to the three holy cities of the beast clan. But I was young at the time, so I didn't take it to heart at all. ”

"Your father-in-law, where is he now?" Lin Xiao grabbed Dog Lang's arm, his eyes glowing.

An extremely painful expression appeared on Dog Lang's face, and he said slowly after half a sound: "My stepfather, stepmother, and my stepsister Chun'er, they ...... They are all dead, and they are all dead because of me. Chun'er and I grew up together, childhood sweethearts, affectionate early, and my father-in-law and stepmother had already agreed to our marriage......"

Inulang couldn't say any more, he whimpered and buried his head deeply, covering his face with a pair of big hands, his broad shoulders trembling silently.

Inu Lang is a tough guy, but at this time he is so painful that he can't control himself, which makes people feel even more frightening.

Lin Xiao knew that Dog Lang must have suffered greatly, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he had to pat him lightly on the shoulder and ask in a low voice, "What happened later?" ”

Halfway through, Dog Lang raised his head, his eyes were red, he took a long breath, and said hatefully: "It's all because I provoked someone I can't afford to mess with in the National Academy." ”

"Who is it?" Lin Xiao asked.

Boundless hatred burst out of Gou Lang's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It's Lord Zuo Cheng, the current Lord of the Principality of Tuanyue, the youngest son of Marquis Dou Xian, Dou Chao." ”

When the word "Dou Chao" was spoken, the sound of Dog Lang's gnashing teeth could be heard clearly.

"Lord Zuo Cheng?" Lin Xiao looked at him for a moment, he remembered, in Wangduan Mountain, there are many orc tribes that are subject to this Lord Zuo Cheng, in the distant barbarian region, this Lord Zuo Cheng is so influential, you can imagine his power in the Duchy of Tuanyue.

"Dou Chao and I are in the same department, the same class and the same major, this person has always been arrogant, relying on the power of the family to dominate the academy. But I couldn't get used to his evil deeds, and my grades were better than his, so I aroused his jealousy. On campus, he and his henchmen made it difficult for me in every possible way, but I could only swallow my anger. In order to rectify me, he went around collecting information about me, and finally he knew that I was an orc. ”
