Chapter 138: A Conversation with the Unicorn
With an impassioned passage from Lucius, it touched most of the unicorns, stirring up the blood in their hearts that had not yet been completely extinguished.
In fact, for the unicorn clan, they are not bloodless, but their ancestors continue to resist and fight, but under the blow of being suppressed by the various clans in the city in the forest again and again, the blood and courage of the entire clan have long been gone, and most unicorns are used to being enslaved and oppressed.
If there was no intrusion of Lucius, an outsider, even if the unicorn wanted to resist again, he would not have acted lightly.
As Barna is doing, the unicorns will choose to continue to endure and slowly progress through oppression until they are strong enough to resist before they are likely to challenge the tribes of the city in the forest again.
And the arrival of Lecius broke the forbearance of the unicorn clan, and his impassioned words aroused the courage in the bones of the entire clan, pushing the unicorns to rebel against the rut of the city in the forest.
However, although the blood and courage of the unicorns were aroused, the unicorns still did not dare to take over in the face of the captured young talents of the city in the forest, and after discussion, Barna came out to face Lucius and said: "Your Excellency Lucius, these captives of the tribes in the city in the forest are still under your care for the time being, and our clan really does not have that ability." ”
Hearing Barna say this, Lucius didn't force it, and said with a slight smile: "Hehe, this is no problem, Patriarch Bana can rest assured, these guys are absolutely safe in my carriage." ”
For Lucius's words, Barna didn't dare to pick up the stubble at all. But Emilia was curious and asked, "Lucius, why doesn't your carriage have horses?"
"Because it's not a carriage. Before Lucius could explain, Modès had already spoken first.
"Not a carriage?" Modès's words made the unicorns, including Barna, all look puzzled.
And Lecius didn't blame Modus for stealing the words, and took the initiative to take Modes's words, explaining: "It's really not a carriage anymore, it's a mechanical car, and there are mechanical devices inside to provide power, so it doesn't need any external traction, and it can move on its own." ”
"Oh, so amazing, is this what is called magic outside the forest?" Emilia couldn't help but exclaim.
Listened to Amilia's words. Lucius smiled and shook his head and said, "No, some of the arrangements in the carriage use magic, but the car walks on its own, driven by the power generated by mechanical operation. ”
"Machinery, motion, power, what are these? Are they also a product of a magical civilization? It seems that the world outside the forest seems to be very exciting. There are so many strange words. And such a miraculous car that can walk on its own. Emilia became even more curious.
Facing Emilia's doubts. Before Lecius could speak, he was preemptively asked by Modes: "Amilia, you unicorns believe in nature and the moon. How can you not know what magic is?"
This time, he didn't wait for Emilia to speak, but Barna said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "According to the records of some previous classics in the clan, our clan did know how to use magic before, but later, those foreign tribes in the city of the forest arrived, killed the strong in order to rule the forest, and even burned the inheritance of many ethnic groups in the forest, which led us to lose the magic inheritance." ”
"Oh, forcibly change civilization, it seems that the ruler of the city in the forest should be a sexist standing at the pinnacle of other civilizations?"
Hearing Lucius's answer, Emilia said with a solemn face: "Yes, I once came into contact with the records left by some old priests in the clan, and it was mentioned that among the ancestors of the Lees family, there was once a very powerful being, who was able to fight the gods. ”
Speaking of this, Emilia paused for a moment before continuing: "However, the person who destroyed the magical civilization in the Miè Forest is not the ancestor of the Li Si family. ”
"Isn't it the ancestor of the Li family?Isn't it his family who rules all the tribes in your forest?Since it's not him, who else has the ability to destroy the entire civilization?" Hearing Amilia's words, Christine, who was hidden under the cloak, finally couldn't suppress the doubts in her heart and opened her mouth to ask.
Emilia glanced at Christine, who had always been hidden under the magic cloak, but she didn't hide it at all, and replied directly: "According to the old priest's records, it seems that it is the powerful enemy from the depths of the forest who destroyed the civilization of the various races in the forest, but it is the ancestor of the Li family who has saved the tribes in the forest. ”
"Hehe......" Hearing Emilia say this, Noko couldn't help but sneer and said: "History is indeed written by the victors, I can't imagine that the ancestor of your unicorns would speak for the people who enslaved you." ”
The others, like Noko, scoffed at Amilia's words about the ancestral priest, believing that the priest was singing the praises of the victors.
However, Lucius didn't think so, and in connection with the words of Li Si and the others before, he felt that the information recorded by the ancestral priest of the unicorn might be true.
Thinking of this, Lucius couldn't help frowning slightly, thinking about what was hidden in the deeper depths of the Misty Forest?
Seeing that Lucius was deep in thought, Noko smiled and woke up Lucius and said, "Lucius, you don't really think that what the unicorn priest said is true, do you? If it is true, then how can there be a city in the forest? How can the unicorns be enslaved for so long?"
According to Norko's idea, if there really is a stronger enemy in the depths of the forest, then all the tribes in the forest should unite sincerely and support each other to make all races stronger.
"Only when everyone is strong can they resist the enemy together, and now, not to mention the other races in the forest, the horned orcs alone are obviously suppressed by the city in the forest, I believe that there should be many, many more races enslaved in the forest, right?"
Noko said this and looked at Emilia and Barna, the father and daughter both nodded helplessly, and Barna sighed even more, "I can enter the city in the woods." There are only a dozen or so ethnic groups, and the many different ethnic groups in the forest combined, I am afraid that there are at least a hundred different ethnic groups. ”
"Hundreds of races, looking at Li Si's attitude towards unicorns, it is not difficult to imagine that the treatment of other races is probably not much better, under such a system, the final concentration of resources and power in the hands of a few races can only lead to a decline in the overall amount of the entire forest. ”
"If there really is a zài, the so-called terrible zài that can destroy civilization in the deeper part of the forest. The people in the city of the woods did it. Won't you destroy yourself?"
After listening to Noko's analysis, Barna and the unicorn elders all felt that Noko's analysis was very reasonable, and they were a little ashamed of the words recorded by the ancestor priest.
But. But Lucius still insisted on dissenting: "Noko. You analyzed it well. But you ignore the fact that if all those who fought against the enemy back then are gone, so many years. The younger generations have never seen those powerful enemies, so the decline of the race is inevitable. ”
"In the absence of external troubles, whether it is a kingdom or a race, or a family like Lees, they will gradually lose their original aggressiveness, will begin to gradually decline, and finally will decline, losing the glory and bearing that they should have. ”
Hearing this, everyone present fell silent, and the unicorn clan felt a little ashamed, because their clan lost their fighting spirit in comfort, and finally became the lowest race in the forest.
Seeing that everyone fell silent, even Noko was speechless to refute himself, a smile reappeared on Lucius's face and said, "Hehe, you don't have to be so dull, what we have to think about now is not whether there are strong enemies in the depths of the forest, what we need to think about is how to deal with the anger of the ten tribes in the city in the forest. ”
Hearing Lucius say this, the unicorns present, except for Emilia and Barna, frowned, and the other elders were like frosted eggplants, wilting there and not even daring to raise their heads.
Others were also lost in thought, not knowing how to respond to Lucius's words.
After a long time, Noko opened his mouth and complained: "Actually, if you don't let that guy go, I'm afraid it will take a long time for the city in the forest to find us." ”
"What? Did you let one go? You, are you going to wipe out our unicorns?"
Hearing Noko's complaints, several unicorn elders screamed in horror, obviously they didn't expect that Lucius would let go of a person to report back, which made them seem to see the scene of their own race about to be wiped out, and they stared at Lucius in horror and anger one by one.
"Oh my God, you've already committed public anger by arresting those young children of the city in the forest, but you go back to Haiphong to report the news, do you really think that those powerful races in the city in the forest are as easy to bully as our unicorns?"
"Disaster, this is a real disaster, we unicorns have survived in this forest for so many years, and we didn't expect that today we would become a burial for you outsiders, pity our ancestors who are still alive, if we know that the race is going to be destroyed at our hands, I don't know what kind of grief it will be?"
Seeing that several elders said this, Emilia and Barna hurriedly persuaded them, and it was Modis and Qilier who also persuaded them, wanting to appease the feelings of several elders and let them not spread the news casually, so as not to extinguish the fighting spirit that the unicorn clan had just ignited again.
However, no matter how many people comforted and persuaded them, several elders could not sweep away the pessimism in their hearts, and one elder even stood up and scolded: "You executioners, with sinister intentions, do you still want to hide our people from our people at this time and let them fight for your life?"
As soon as the elder's words fell, Lucius lazily interrupted the others, and said, "Okay, don't be so pessimistic all of you, okay? Since I dare to let people go back to report the news, I am naturally sure to deal with those people in the city in the forest." ”
As he spoke, he stood up, looked at the unicorn elders with disdain, and said, "Look at you, you are so old, why are you still so angry?" Obviously, you are afraid of death, and you still have to say what kind of race Ling Ran said, if you really think about the race, you should have risen up to resist a long time ago." ”
Lucius's words were very direct, and the few elders who said it were so ashamed that they didn't dare to argue with them anymore, so they could only sit there stupidly.
Seeing that the unicorn elders were speechless, Lucius looked at Emilia and Barna and said, "Don't worry, I won't joke with the lives of so many of your people. ”
Hearing this, Barna and Emilia looked at each other, although they were still deeply worried in their hearts, but at the moment they had no other way out, but pinned their hopes on Lucius, an outsider. (To be continued......)
