6. Social research of the blue bird species
"Well, well... If you want to talk about the blue bird species, then you have to talk about the object they used to be loyal to, the phoenix species. ”
Emhart floated in mid-air as he spoke, his body opening slightly, the thick pages of the book flipping like a rotating gear.
Through the pages he opened, Fisher saw countless words in flux on the moving pages, sometimes Nari's, sometimes Schwali's, sometimes Northern, and then many of Fisher's never-before-seen words.
As the pages turned, Emhardt's book cover shone with inspiration, his eyes became wiser, and his tone of voice describing the contents became more determined.
"Legend has it that the phoenixes dwelt on a huge frost plane tree that grew upside down in the depths of the snow-capped mountains, and that its branches grew longer than any mountain you've ever seen, and its foliage was wider than any island you've ever seen. For a long time, they had lived in that plane tree, and all the creatures of the north had never seen the true face of the phoenix species, and only sang their shadows in the legends passed down by word of mouth. ”
"But when the North was invaded by the Chaos Species from the Spirit Realm, the Phoenixes flew down from the plane trees as if they had expected it, leading the creatures of the North to a duel to the death. With the joint efforts of all the creatures in the North, the carriers of the Chaos Seed were finally killed one by one, and their consciousness returned to the Spirit Realm. ”
"The phoenix species has contributed the most in this war to unify the North, and is rightfully revered by everyone as the king of the North; And secondly, there are six subhuman species that swear to follow the phoenix race, and the bird species you want to know about now is the subhuman race that ranks first among these six subspecies. ”
"They are considered to be the closest sub-species to the phoenix, and the population has lived for generations at the base of that huge frost plane tree, on the top of the snow-capped mountain, and has the responsibility of protecting the plane tree. At the end of the war, the Phoenix King led all the phoenixes back to the Sycamore Tree, leaving the northern realm to her three children. ”
"She asked the Saint to forge four divine weapons for her and her children, and made her children swear to the mother sword in their hands, vowing to protect the complementarity of the creatures of the North, to follow the guidance of fate, and to maintain its beauty and peace... In the record, the phoenix divided the northern realm except for the snow-capped mountains into three parts, and handed over these three lands and six subhuman races to the three noble sons of the phoenix. ”
"But that was a long, long time ago, and it had been a long, long time since the Birds migrated to the rest of the North with the Sons of the Phoenix..."
The pages in Emhart's body stopped turning, and then continued,
"But since there is the Ice Prince Sword next to the female captain, then I guess that the Blue Bird Species and another race followed the Phoenix holding the Ice Prince Sword to the southernmost point of the Northern Realm, which is now the location of the Sardinia Female Kingdom, probably to prevent the Chaos Species from coming from the sea to attack the Northern Realm again... But I'm not sure, after all, I put this information together from a poem by Shoumo Lake. ”
Fisher, who was still thinking about it, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, he thought that the source of Emhardt's information was a dusty northern history book, but he didn't expect it to be this kind of poetry with artistic processing elements, which made him doubt the authenticity of the previous information all of a sudden.
Seeing Fisher's expression change slightly, Emhart immediately knew what he was thinking, and for a moment he became angry, looked at him and scolded,
"You human, don't look at how fast I'm telling you now, do you know how long it took me to collect all these poems? Sometimes the first half of a poem sank under a lake somewhere in the north, and the second half ended up in the library of the Abyssal Demon, and it was only after a hard fight with someone that I saw this history... Anyway, that's how Paimon remembers, if you have any questions, you can ask her, and I'm not responsible. ”
In fact, in essence, all that Emhart knows is second-hand information from unknown sources, after all, he himself has not experienced that time, it is a time so long ago that there is not even a trace left, maybe Elliog will know.
However, although it is second-hand information, it is not without merit, because in the sequence label of [Snow Mountain Roll Clan] in the sub-human mother's completion manual, he really saw that there are indeed six different kinds of subhuman species, and the blue bird species is in this list.
Although other aspects of his own completion manual do have shortcomings compared with other completion manuals, but in terms of Yaren Niang, it says that the second is not the completion of the manual, and it dares to say that it is the first.
So, if the six types of scrolls in the poems are real, how many of the other stories are true?
Thinking of this, he suddenly had a question, so he asked Emhart,
"Wait a minute, you said that the King of the Phoenixes returned to the Sycamore Tree with most of the Phoenixes after pacifying the North, leaving only her three children under the tree... And now there is no phoenix species in the north, so is it possible that the descendants of the three sons of the phoenix are extinct, and there are other phoenixes in the plane trees deep in the snowy mountains? ”
"Ah, no one can be sure... But I have a miscellaneous book here that contains a record of this story, and you should have fun listening to it, I don't believe in it. ”
Hearing Fisher's question, Emhart thought for a second or two, and then began to flip through the contents of the book in his belly again,
"It is recorded here that the phoenixes are very sensitive to the senses of fate, and the king of the phoenix is the best among them. Legend has it that she was able to infer future development from the direction of the snowy mountains, and the reason why she returned to the plane tree with most of the phoenix species was because she saw a future fate. ”
"But this kind of thing is too ethereal, and so far, you humans have explored the snowy mountains many times, but you really haven't found anything inside, let alone the Frost Sycamore Tree that is so big that it grows upside down."
"There is a great possibility that all this legend is false, in fact, the King of the Phoenix has long since died, and her three children and the rest of her clan beat themselves in the north, and then they beat themselves away, I think this is more reliable, what do you think?"
Fisher had a rough idea of the past history in his mind, but he didn't continue to ask Emhardt about the phoenix species, which was almost off topic after chatting for a long time, you must know that he came to ask him because he wanted to know the knowledge of the bird species, so he pulled the topic back first,
"So, you haven't said what the current situation of the blue bird species is."
"Oh, the birds... I'm sorry, after all, I'm not a small person, and I always like to unintentionally reveal a little bit about the epic content of the big scenes in the past, so you can't bear it... Hey, don't do it. ”
Seeing that Fisher wanted to do it again, he dodged backwards while rummaging through the pages,
"Well, since the phoenix disappeared, the northern sub-race that followed the Ice Prince Sword to the south bank from the Snow Mountain has divided into two factions, one group wants to return to live in the Snow Mountain, and then protect the Frost Sycamore Tree that has disappeared for the Phoenix Species; The other faction is ready to keep their promise to the Ice Prince and protect the southern shore of the North for generations. ”
"The flock of birds that live in the snowy mountains now hunt and graze in the snow every day, and there is not much left of the one left on the south bank, and now all of them live in the southernmost part of the Sardinia women's country, the Kondinger Bridge, and eat with the humans. And as expected, that female captain of yours is good-looking... Ahem, friend, she's from the Condinger Bridge Partition Country. ”
The Kondinger Bridge, a transliteration of the Northern Border, originally means "fortress of the south" and is the closest northern boundary to Schwali on the western continent.
"And the birds are born with a trait, which is loyalty, as can be seen from the fact that they still follow the oath made by their ancestors long after the phoenix disappeared. In other words, the second mate Ossie is a subordinate of the female captain, so she will definitely be absolutely loyal to her, and the best way you want to attack her is to ask the female captain to give orders, and she will definitely listen... Oh, Emhat, you're so bad, I love it. ”
“... Is there anything else you can do about the blue bird species? ”
"What else could there be? They're all so miserable now, they've all been reduced to being human guards, and if something happens, they'll all be wiped out of the human realm many years later..."
"Alright, you're useless for the time being, go play with Karma and the others."
After confirming that Emhart had no other knowledge to squeeze in, Fisher touched his chin to sort out the information he had just gotten clear, and at the same time drove Emhart away like a fly, so angry that the skin of his book cover turned red, and he wanted to insult Fisher in the most vicious language.
But at the same time, Emhardt was worried that this guy was doing something to him roughly, and in order to prevent Fisher's attack, he flew to the place near the door, and was just about to scold, but he felt that he would soon chase him out and catch him...
Hmph, then this time I will not remember the villain, I insult you in my heart!
In Fisher's eyes, the book floating in the air swallowed the breath of its own, and ran out of the room to find Karma and the others, anyway, they had learned their lesson and should not put the smelly and dirty rat on him again.
And Fisher took out the manual of Yaren Niang and checked the research progress of the blue bird species.
[Biological research progress of blue bird species: 17%]
[Progress of social research on blue bird species: 36%]
The rapid progress numbers below caught Fisher's attention at once, he didn't expect that it would be really useful to gain knowledge through Emhart!
The other sub-human women I studied before were all living in biology, but the social progress was rising very slowly, because the social outlook of the sub-race obtained from the mouth of an individual was very model, and the individuals I studied were not sociologists who had done in-depth research.
Now with Emhardt, he can improve the situation.
In this way, he is in charge of Yaren Niang's biological research, and Emhart is in charge of social research, so Yaren Niang's reward for completing the manual will be doubled here.
In front of Fisher's eyes, lines of illusory words once again poured out of the Yaren Niang's completion manual, which read,
[You have unlocked the rewards of the Scroll Clan: provide you with a hint that you can determine the Snow Mountain Scroll Clan without binding, and the stage reward obtained by the next time you study the Snow Mountain Scroll Clan will be increased by 20%]
[The progress of the social research of the blue bird species has reached 20%, and the rewards of the first stage have been unlocked:]
[Constitution +2, Loyalty +1, Cold Resistance +3]
“?”
Looking at the illusory prompt text, Fisher's happy expression suddenly froze.
