Chapter 1340 (1/2)
Seeing Ariel understood, Igor continued: ”however, after the war with the demon king, the pure orcs lost too much. Even after more than a thousand years, they still lived a life of scattered troops and bravery, and did not form their own country, community and party. Most of them served as mercenaries and died on the battlefield. Because of this almost unproductive personality, their number is becoming more and more scarce. ”
After thinking about it, Ariel began to follow Igor's words and said, ”is it rare? You think too much. In my house, I often see some orcs walking around on the road. ”
Sweet wine cheese tilted her head and thought about it. Although she couldn't speak, her expression remained a kind of acquiescence.
Igor smiled, nodded slightly and said, ”is it in Hanhai city? Indeed, I have seen many orcs. However, in this regard, we need to talk about the second kind of orcs that have emerged on this golden continent after thousands of years. ”
”The orcs have strong combat effectiveness. Their civilians hardly need any training. Their combat strength will be stronger than some well-trained human soldiers. But after the best war, the number of orcs became scarce. However, while the number is scarce, humans begin to want to absorb the powerful fighting talent of orcs and use it. ”
”Therefore, humans and magicians of other races began to try to transform some normal humans into orcs.”
”This process... It's bloody and uncomfortable. It's better for the princess not to know too much. ”
Ariel was stunned, then shut up and stopped talking. But she didn't speak, but the sweet wine cheese next to her was dissatisfied. She frowned and said, ”what's better to know too much? How do you make orcs? When you say it, you must make it clear. ”
Igor shrugged, Ariel looked at the orc in front who still didn't look back, nudged the sweet wine cheese with her elbow, and signaled her to shut up.
Although sweet wine cheese was arrogant before, now she began to listen to Ariel's words more or less, but the color of doubt still hovered on her face, and there were obviously question marks in her head.
Ariel breathed out a little and asked, ”and then? Have new orcs been created? ”
Igor smiled and said, ”after continuous research, those magicians finally created a set of mature methods to transform humans into orcs. It is conceivable that those magicians must be very excited after the success of the experiment. ”
”However, these created orcs obviously don't want to be the tools of these magicians. They have human wisdom and orc power. They can retract their bodies into human appearance when necessary, or show a strong Orc appearance when needed. ”
”So it was said to be a very tragic rebellion. Unfortunately, the orcs' habit of not recording history seems to have been preserved by the new orcs. So today, seven or eight hundred years after the experiment, the new beast people hardly know that those historical people exist. On the magician's side... After such a fierce rebellion and paying a reportedly very high price, they had to indulge the independence of new orcs. The magicians simply stopped recording the records of these orcs as an occasional mistake and planned to forget them in the long river of history. ”
Listening to Igor's words now, Frank's actions in front seemed a little dull. However, such dullness lasted only a few seconds, and he took another step to open the way in front.
Igor said quietly, ”then, with the passage of time, the new orcs began to marry and have children, and began to produce their next generation. This is passed on from generation to generation. Of course, it does not mean that the descendants of those orcs must still be orcs. A considerable number of them are human or other races from birth to death, and have not become orcs. Whether a person with Orc blood can change has completely become a matter of probability. As the blood of the orcs spread more and more, just a few decades later, even when the orcs themselves didn't know how many descendants they had, the magicians naturally wouldn't care about them. Slowly, their reputation among humans returned to normal. Everyone only knew that the orcs were on their side in the last demon king war, but completely forgot the unfriendly memories between the two sides. ”
”But...”
Igor raised his head, looked at the walking franger in front, and said with a smile——
”There is no guarantee that all orcs will forget that history. After all, there are still many things that cannot be recorded in this world, right? ”
A line of four people and a bear. Frang and the violent fear bear lead the way in front. Ariel, sweet wine cheese and Igor continue to walk behind.
The formation of such a squad similar to a triangle allows Ariel to quickly respond to Igor in front.
However, even if Igor said so, the orc still had no response. I don't know whether he can really calm down or whether he doesn't feel much about this speech.
”When you came to us this time, did you see any delicious, interesting and interesting places in this country?”
Ariel shifted the subject, as if to ask some unimportant questions. But after saying this, she whispered——
”Who the hell are you? Why help us? What's the purpose? How did you come to this country? ”
Igor tilted his head and thought. Then he turned the lute behind him and gently plucked the strings. With the current winter and the pace of mountain climbing, play a slightly lively high tune.
After such a sound, the elf finally said softly, ”I am very surprised, what makes you such a president instead of being your royal highness?”
Naturally, the sweet wine cheese nearby heard such a sound covered by the sound of the piano, and immediately lowered his voice anxiously and said, ”I! I'm the princess! So you should be loyal to me! She is the maid! ”
Ariel stared directly at the sweet wine cheese. The real princess contacted the severe eyes of the fake princess, immediately closed her mouth, shrunk her neck and kept silent.
”Hoo... Forced by the situation, I have to.”
Ariel whispered——
”At that time, the orc wanted to kill us. When I had to, I had to rely on the identity of the princess.”
After thinking about it, Igor finally nodded and said, ”I see. In this way, it can be explained. When I arrived, I just heard that you claimed to be the long princess. I didn't do it because I couldn't figure out the situation for a while. Please forgive me, Princess Ariel. ”
Such a name is also new~~~
For a moment, Ariel felt that her pace was about to relax and continued to ask——
”So? You don't know the situation, so you've been hiding and listening? ”
Igor smiled again: ”please forgive me, what I said before is true. The departure of you and the princess's mission is a major event in the whole Hanhai city. Of course, I know very well. ”
”Originally, I didn't intend to come to the hunter Empire, but my elf friend wasn't very friendly to me. Without two words, he kicked me out. I had no way. I lost my goal for a while and had to continue wandering. ”
”At this time, I happened to think of the royal highness of the princess's coming to hunt the throne empire. I thought that if I had to send an ambassador, there would be a lot of people along the way. I was thinking about coming over and performing the sideline if I could.”
”I entered the border of the hunter Empire about five days ago, but when I woke up this morning, I felt a large number of natural spirits crying and screaming on the hillside of that village, so I followed the sound. Seeing that you are negotiating with the orc, I really can't bother you. On the other hand... ”
The elf shrugged his shoulders——
”I also want to see if the rumored president who has no combat effectiveness can survive in the hands of an enemy who is full of killing her. As a result, you really make me worship more and more. ”
Ariel frowned and looked at the spirit with a slightly unhappy attitude: ”so, you didn't run out until there was an unstable factor of violent fear of bears in the back, and I was about to be uncertain?”
Igor continued with a smile, ”your performance is perfect. Is it a pity if such a perfect performance is destroyed by a small stain? In order to maintain this wonderful feeling, I jumped out at that time. ”
Recalling the scene at that time, sweet wine cheese blushed and began to regret his carelessness and impulse.
