Chapter 421: Looking for a Hero
Unlike the commanders in the film and television shows, who are always late to the war, Demacia's army arrived quickly - and their appearance, although they did not deal with the rock beasts themselves, did a good job of preventing the situation from getting worse.
In front of the army, no one tore or pushed Bobby anymore.
The soldiers also seemed to know Bobby, and in the face of the indignant villagers, they could only smile wryly and assure that the yodeler was a "man to be trusted."
Fortunately, the recognition of the Demacian soldiers among the people was still very high, and the riot quickly calmed down, and while the soldiers were busy explaining, Rhodes quietly slipped into the crowd and began to inquire about Bobbi and the Rock Beast.
And the army didn't know Rod's identity, and he didn't have time to verify it in this case, so Rod successfully got a lot of interesting news.
For example, this Poppy has been around for a long time.
According to the deputy captain of this group of Demacian soldiers, Poppy was a "Yodeler with a Demacian domicile", which is quite unbelievable, because on the one hand, Demacia rarely distributes household registration to foreigners, and on the other hand, Yodelers are generally not recognized by the mainstream of Demacia.
And during the time that Poppy appeared in the Western Highlands, she almost walked with death.
All the while, Poppy is on the lookout for a hero - so whenever any kind of conflict or trouble arises, she will rush to it as soon as possible and then look for the person who could be the hero.
And the way Bobby tests the hero is also very simple - give the big hammer to his target, and then see if the target can pick up the hammer and do a big thing.
The most direct effect of this simple and crude test is that most of the losers of those tests die unexpectedly.
People always have limits, and Poppy's test clearly exceeds the limits of these people.
Of course, Bobby's own powerful talent for inspiration also caused misunderstandings among the testers - if they all survived, as long as someone investigated, it would be easy to find that the moment they took over the hammer, there was no fear or retreat in the hearts of these test subjects, only the courage to move forward.
Poppy's magical talent is not in elemental magic or arcane, space, or time in the usual sense, but in the mind—courage.
Coincidentally, the Demacians who were tested did not understand magic at all, although they hated demonic magic, and they regarded this sudden courage, or judgment against evil, or fearless charge, which was originally the effect of magic, as the force of justice.
And Rod, who got the information he wanted, nodded his head, quietly blended into the crowd and slipped out of the incident again.
There are many things to think about for him.
Outside of Demacia, when people talk about the country, they often use a few superficial words to describe it.
What is the rejection of magic, the restlessness, the discrimination of outsiders......
And these are all superficial phenomena in the final analysis.
In order to get what he needs in Demacia, Rhodes has been trying to explore the spiritual core of Demacia along the way.
What kind of people were the Demacians?
Now, Rod feels as if he has some eyebrows.
When it comes to magical knowledge, Demacia is characterized not by ignorance, but by monopoly.
Demacia didn't know anything about magic - whether it was weapon enchantment or spell-breaking equipment, it was something that needed to be done with some knowledge of spells, and Demacia did both very well, and it made no sense that they didn't know anything about magic.
Coupled with the existence of the Illuminati, Rhodes knew very well that Demacia actually had his own magical powers.
But these are official forces.
On a private level, the vast majority of magic is absolutely forbidden - and the few spells that can be used are covered in a different veneer in Demacia.
Courage, faith, will.
These qualities became a cover for spells, and in the subconscious of the Demacians, spells were evil, and these "righteous qualities" naturally had nothing to do with magic.
In other words, Demacia is not a country without magic, and the people of Demacia use magic - but the common people really think that they have never been exposed to magic, and the higher-ups are confused, and still maintain various prohibitions on magic.
An awkward country.
As Rhodes pondered, the villagers' confusion subsided - while Mendels' parents were still haunted by their son's death, they couldn't do much more than Poppy's previous act of throwing the hammer, after all, Poppy's actions didn't trigger any Demacian laws.
After calming down the incident, this group of Demacian soldiers did not choose to defend on the spot or leave directly, and then they conveyed a new mission.
"All the villagers of Orsay Village, follow the troops to evacuate and avoid danger, and the king of rock beasts has appeared!"
And then Rhodes realized that it was not Demacia's army that reacted quickly, but that they were going to the village of Orsay!
