Chapter 223 The Human Condition

As Andre said, Anlun has been the busiest these days. He's been documenting the ants helping humans rebuild their homes, and he plans to use it to spread the word. For a craftsman, the most interesting thing, in addition to delving into new technology, is to verify new ideas. So when An Lun heard that Starmark wanted the Ant Clan and the people of Monrok to live together, he was intrigued.

"Erniu, the work efficiency of your people is okay, it's only been a few days, and most of Mengluoke City has recovered. An Lun greeted the queen ant, and through working together these days, he had become familiar with the queen and spoke a lot more casually.

The queen glared at An Lun viciously: "Who do you call Erniu!

An Lun smiled: "How ugly the name is, the second girl is good, Brother Xin, that's right." ”

Just when An Lun and the queen ant were teasing poverty, Xiude came over, and after he glanced at the two of them separately, he said to the queen ant, "I have something to talk to you about." ”

"What's the matter?" the queen looked at Xiude in some surprise, Xiude had never come to them in the days when he had rebuilt Mengrok. Every day, he just stood in the distance and supervised their progress. Although the queen ant is not happy about this, she also knows that it is a matter of course. But today, Xiude actually took the initiative to find her and had something to say, which was a bit unexpected for her.

After finishing speaking, Xiude looked at An Lun, and the meaning couldn't be clearer, and let An Lun leave. Unexpectedly, An Lun pretended not to see the same, not only did he not mean to leave, but he also stood two steps beside the queen ant.

Seeing An Lun's look of refusing to leave with a dead face, Xiu De had no choice but to say angrily: "Lord An Lun, you still need to go over to help you in the construction of the east of the city. ”

Xiude said it so clearly, anyone should leave with interest. But An Lun has never been someone else, his cheek is not inferior to the star mark at all, as long as he doesn't want to leave, it's useless for others to say anything, just listen to him wave his hand directly and say: "It's no problem over there, I just came back from there." ”

Saying that, An Lun didn't plan to let Xiude bother to talk about himself anymore, and directly provoked: "Captain Xiude, just say anything directly, I and Erniu are our own people, so I don't have to avoid it." ”

Xiude glared at An Lun, and roared in his heart: "It's you who I want to avoid!"

Seeing that An Lun didn't look like he was going to eat oil and salt, Xiude could only say indignantly: "Okay, but state in advance, this is an order from Luen! This is related to whether the ant beasts can continue to live in Monrok, I hope that Lord An Lun just listens and doesn't interfere." ”

"Okay, I know, say something!" An Lun urged impatiently.

Xiude nodded, his expression suddenly became much more serious, he looked at the queen ant and said, "The state has approved that you can live in Monrok City with humans, but there are three conditions that you must agree. ”

When the queen ant heard this, she nodded slightly: "Say it." "It's not surprising that it has demands from humans, and if it were her, it would have made corresponding requests.

"First, in your dealings with human beings, you are never allowed to attack human beings, and those who violate them will be condemned by the death penalty of human beings!" Xiude said word by word.

"And what if humans attack us first?" was only the first one, and some of the problems in the words were heard later.

Xiude shook his head: "I will fight for this for you, but I can't guarantee equality, after all, the city itself belongs to us humans." ”

The queen frowned, but didn't say anything, waiting for Xiude to continue to say the next condition.

"Second, you have to work for us humans, defend the city, and defend against foreign monsters, and we will provide you with food and shelter," Xiude continued.

"Wait a minute. The queen ant spoke, she stared at Xiude, and said with a hint of anger in her eyes: "That human promised me to live with humans, but these conditions have undoubtedly made our ant clan a vassal of your human race. ”

At this time, An Lun also interjected: "That's right, to change it to help, all labor is paid." If it's just to protect Monrok, they also talk about the past in order to protect their homeland, but don't think about anything else. Tell those old people who are calculating others all day long, the ant clan lives in Monroc, and they protect Monroc. Don't want to be an army to move casually, if you really need to move, hire them for the price of a mercenary. ”

Xiude glanced at An Lun, he naturally knew what these agreements represented, so he wanted to support An Lun, taking advantage of the fact that the queen ant was weak and had not dealt with humans much, and pressured the queen ant to agree to these conditions. But if An Lun helps the staff officer, then it will be difficult for him to fool around.

The queen ant looked at An Lun gratefully, she knew that this human really wanted to help their race integrate into human society, and she didn't realize that at this moment, she was a little more dependent on An Lun.

Xiude retracted his gaze and said with a slight bow: "Okay, this matter has not been implemented after all, I just want to say hello to you first and negotiate with each other." I will help you get the conditions you want through the military. ”

Speaking of this, Xiude's expression suddenly became very serious, and his voice became much lower: "But the last one, you can only agree, this is non-negotiable!"

Listening to Xiude's gradually aggravating tone, An Lun and the queen ant both frowned, from Xiude's Yeangzi, they knew that the last one would definitely not be a good thing for the ant clan.

"The last one, because the Sky Swallowing Worm is too much of a threat to the human race, after a collective vote by the Luen Official, the Military Department, the Juno Sage Academy, and the major guilds, the Sky Swallowing Worm must be executed!"

When the queen ant heard this, her body shook violently, and the words "kill the Sky Devouring Worm" exploded in her brain like a thunderclap. The queen ant can accept unequal treatment, and even accept becoming a vassal race, but the only thing she can't think about is to kill the Sky Devouring Worm. The Sky Swallowing Insect is not only the dependence of their ant clan, but also the guardian beast of their clan from generation to generation, even if she wants her to die, for the sake of the ant clan, she can agree, but the Sky Swallowing Worm...

The ant queen gritted her teeth, her heart was fighting fiercely, she was hesitating, struggling, on the one hand, the guardian beast that had accompanied the ant clan for eternity, and on the other hand, the future of the existing people of the ant clan, she didn't know how to choose.

After a long time like this, finally under Xiude's eyes, the queen ant opened her mouth...

"No way!"

The queen ant was stunned, because this was not what she said! The queen turned her head sharply to look at An Lun.

"If you want to be shameless, people will rely on the Sky Swallowing Worm to negotiate terms with you, and kill the Sky Swallowing Worm, isn't it what you are talking about? There is no door, this must not be agreed!" An Lun roared angrily, foaming at the mouth and spraying Xiu De's face.

Xiude dodged a step, and after glaring at An Lun, he still said solemnly: "There is no room for maneuver in this matter, either you kill the Sky Devouring Worm, or you can only continue to fight!"

"If you start a war, I'm afraid of you! I sue you, I'm a concussive soundwave, which of your weapons can be used, and when the time comes, all of them will turn me into insect!"

Xiu De also had a headache when he heard this, but he had heard how bad An Lun's temper was, and he was a god craftsman with many means, which was really not something that ordinary soldiers like them could deal with.

"Master Divine Craftsman, you have to remember your identity, you are a human being! And this matter cannot be reversed no matter who it is, if you insist on helping the ant clan, it can only be regarded as treason!" After speaking, Xiude looked at the ant queen again, and his voice did not ease at all.

"I know that this condition is very harsh, but in order for the two clans to take the first step, sacrifice is impossible to avoid, if you have the same worries as Lord Divine Craftsman, then I want you to assure you in the name of a soldier that the life of the ant clan will definitely be guaranteed. I hope you can think carefully and give me an answer in three days, whether to kill the Sky Eater or start a war with the human is up to you. ”

After saying that, Xiude turned to leave, leaving An Lun with an angry face and the queen ant with gloomy eyes. As one of the few races that are unwilling to go to war, the queen longs for peace, but the choice of killing the Sky Devourer is unacceptable to her.

"Little Green, run faster! You're so good, come home with me!" At this moment, a child's laughter came.

The queen turned her head to see a human child, riding on a green ant and laughing, he was laughing so innocently and happily. And the ants, called Little Green, also look very happy. It ran with the child as much as it could. All this is so beautiful, however, in the eyes of the queen ant, it can only be reduced to sadness. Because she knew that this scene would only last three days, and after three days, it would be time for the war to start again.

......

At sunset, the ant clan has returned to the belly of the Sky Eater one after another. The queen ant stood beside the giant mouth of the Sky Swallowing Worm, looking at the golden-clad Monrok City in the sunset, revealing a touch of reluctance. Although it is only a few days, it is here that they have been built brick by brick, with the beliefs of the ant clan and their expectations.

The reconstruction of Monrok City has been completed eighty percent, the entire city has nearly tripled in size, and the buildings in the city are more magnificent than before the destruction, the city with many bungalows has now become a two- to three-story small building, each with its own small courtyard, and there are some domed small castles in the courtyard, which are built to give them the shelter of the ant tribe from the wind and rain.

This city is not only pinned on the hopes of the ant clan, but also the hopes of the people of Monroc, and everyone is looking forward to a new chapter, which is the chapter of peaceful coexistence between humans and Warcraft!

There was a deep sadness in the queen's eyes, and she was unwilling and reluctant to withdraw her gaze, because today's departure was the time for them to leave Monrok completely. The ant clan does not intend to start a war with humans, with their strength, there is no way to be the enemy of today's humans, but she also can't give up the Sky Devouring Worm, and can only escape from Monrok while the humans are still besieging her.

Before the queen could tell her people about this, all the ants had returned to sleep in the belly of the Sky Swallowers, and they were recuperating for tomorrow's work. I don't know how many ant tribes are dreaming of getting along with humans.

But they didn't know that the queen was going to take them away, and when the sun rose the next day, they were already far away from Monroc...
