Gufiya grassland, fire-picking festival meeting, a tent somewhere in the center.
In the tall tent, warm red flames burned quietly. A green-haired girl sat on a wooden chair. Because the wooden chair was made according to the figure of an orc, it was very high. The girl's feet could not even land directly on the ground.
It is suspended an inch or two above the ground.
Lorraine Hill swayed her legs gently, her slender calves appearing and disappearing between the white gauze skirt. She sat on a wooden chair and looked at a thick book in her arms. The book cover was a bit old and made of copper.
The edges are polished and the paper inside is very thick, showing a yellow color like fallen leaves.
This book tells the story of the establishment of the Crazy Fang Empire, the former country of the orcs.
Since the beginning of the First Age, the elves emerged from under the World Tree and defeated the King's Court of Giants. The giants did not become extinct immediately, and the remaining few migrated to the south and west.
Due to the significant reduction in their numbers, these giants were unable to withstand the iron cavalry of the Silver Elves. The southern part supported the local orcs, while the western part supported the local ogre clan.
The same is true. The beliefs of the orcs are greatly influenced by the giants, and they also worship the sun and fire. Unfortunately, these giants did not multiply because of this. Due to the constant pursuit of the silver elves and the weakness of the orcs in the early stage, the giant family gradually
Extinct.
It was hundreds of years later when Kedarun, the fang king, conquered the tribes and established the Kuangfang Empire. After that, there was the story of humans establishing the True Red Empire and then destroying it.
Looking at the legends and stories in the book with relish, Lorraine Hill turned over the thick pages, then picked up the teacup on the small table and took a sip.
The Fire Gathering Festival is coming to an end today. After revealing [Red Alfalfa] last time, she has been teaching these orcs how to farm in the past few days. Fortunately, this method of planting grass is extremely simple, and there is basically no need to worry about it.
, many shamans soon learned it.
After finishing his teaching, Lorraine Hill didn't ask for any reward. He just wanted to read some ancient books collected by the orcs and learn about the ancient era in the past.
It was an age before mankind got rid of ignorance, an age of giants and dragons.
Although most of the orcs have never experienced it, they have inherited a lot of knowledge about giants, and they can also find some clues. The giant family was once very powerful. According to the ancient myth, it seems that the king of the giants has reached the height of the gods, that is, the sequence
10 level.
Unfortunately, as the giant's opponents, the Dragon Clan also has Sequence 10 existences. As for the huge canyon in Emenas, it is said that it was caused by Bahamut's attack.
The giants and dragons were obviously powerful beings on one side, but for some unknown reason, the two sides engaged in a fierce and eternal war. The leaders of both sides tore the sky, cut off the earth, and separated the continents that were originally together.
Divided into east and west parts.
And scattered parts of it became islands, such as the islands in the south.
It is said that these god-like Sequence 10s died together and disappeared into the world, and the races on both sides suffered heavy losses as a result. Otherwise, with the strength of the elves, they would not have been able to defeat the giant clan that once ruled the world.
In addition, since the giants worship the sun, the king of the giants should be the incarnation of the sun. However, in fact, the early ancient classics do not use the sun to refer to the king of the giants, but the followers and favored ones of the sun.
Later, in the era after the death of the giants, the myth gradually became that the king of giants was the sun, and this description method was used.
Did Elani really exist? Her experience was quite amazing.
At this moment, the curtain of the quiet tent was opened, and Niya walked in happily.
"Loran, the last day's party has begun~"
After solving the food problem on the grassland, the girl with horns has become a lot more cheerful. She is wearing a white top and a gray cashmere skirt. Her style is also cute, not as depressing and simple as before.
Niya walked briskly behind Luo Lan, hugged the girl who was still reading, and couldn't help but touch the blue hair with her little hands.
Lorraine Hill shook her head gently to let the ends of her hair escape from her roommate's clutches, and then turned around angrily. Recently, Niya has become more and more bold, and she wants to come up and touch her hair whenever she has nothing to do.
"I won't go to the party." Looking back on the past few days, the wild looks the orcs looked at her made the green-haired girl a little scared. If she went out tonight, she would be surrounded by people again, and she would not be able to escape easily.
"No, Master Shaman specifically asked me to invite you to be present." Niya shook her head and said slightly firmly.
"I promised you, Master Shaman, that I will free you from the absolute seal of the tent."
"What? It's like I'm a sealed evil dragon." Lorraine Hill said with an angry smile.
"Because Luo Lan has been hiding in the tent these past few days and refuses to see anyone, the queue outside asking for permission is very long."
Niya raised her hands, gestured in front of her, and then said happily.
"Thanks to Tololan, everyone has become much more harmonious this year, and no one died in the Flame Conference."
"Have a lot of people died in past games?"
"Yes, everyone is proud to kill their opponents." Recalling last year's wildfire showdown, the opponent who fell in the sea of fire, Niya's voice became a little deeper.
It took a while for her to recover.
"Loran, a lot of things have changed..." Niya leaned her head behind Lorraine Hill, looked at the burning fire, and recalled her experiences and knowledge from childhood to adulthood, and murmured.
She has had to fight with her peers since she was a child, and those who win will get food, and those who lose will go hungry. No one has ever told her the importance of knowledge and culture, and she has never seen a way of life other than herding and fighting.
Life seems to be so monotonous and cruel, and only occasionally there is some warmth between people of the same race.
The green grassland is not a gentle harbor, but a battlefield full of fighting. The adults shouted to each other, raised their scimitars, and told their own truths. No one paid attention to those ancient poems, and no one looked up at the beautiful starry sky.
The anxiety called food locks everyone in the fragmented life, and they cannot relax at all times and are exhausted.
Occasionally I am full today, but I have to worry about where my next meal will be tomorrow.
Like wild beasts trapped in a cage, their fate has been sealed and they can only survive by chasing their own tails and eating each other.
But luckily, a passing girl finally opened the bloody and rusty cage with her hands and released the trapped beast, allowing it to run under the stars.
The green grassy wilderness has finally returned to its original beauty.
As free as the wind, as bold and uninhibited as the flame.
