Chapter 1111: The Escapee
It turns out that prolonged isolation and evasion can narrow people's horizons.
Mullan's level is actually quite unusual, but because of his long period of self-isolation, he now looks more like a ...... Frightened.
The kind that was scared out of the guts.
To be honest, Rhodes suspected at first that this guy was playing himself.
But after a few clichés and threats, he finally realized that this guy was really scared.
What the hell is going on?
This starts with the source of the Great River Nomads - in that era when the ancient Shurima Empire crushed all beings, the Great River Nomads, like most of the peoples in the Shurima Continent, were conquered.
And as the vanquished, most of them are unwilling.
So, someone chose to resist.
In the history of the ancient Shurima, the revolts of the vanquished have come and gone, and the most serious one is undoubtedly the Battle of Acacia.
In fact, when Acacia decided to resist, they still made some preparations - in addition to forming Acacia's Free Alliance Army internally, they also contacted some peoples who were also conquered by Shurima.
The Great River Nomads were one of the targets they had been associated with.
In the Shurima Continent, Acacia is in the southeast corner, and the Great River Wanderers are in the northeast corner, if both sides rise up at the same time, even the ancient Shurima Empire will lose one or the other for a while.
This is how Acacia's emissary contacted the leader of the Great River Wanderers.
In reality, of course, the Acacians didn't care if the River Nomads lived or died - for them, once the River Nomads raised the banner of resistance, it meant dispersing the Shurima firepower, and that was the most important thing.
At that time, the leader of the Great River Wanderers, the ancestor of Moulin, also understood what the Acacians meant, and he knew very well that the other party could not give him any substantial support, so he always chose to be perfunctory and vague, and did not give an accurate message.
Seeing that the River Nomads did not take the bait, the Acacians decided to reassure them and revealed the matter of time stripping to the River Nomads, of course, at the time, they exaggerated the effect of time stripping, describing it as a causal spell that "can cause a thing to succeed by modifying the past".
The River Wanderers were naturally skeptical of the Acacia's claims - although the Astrology Wizards of Acacia had demonstrated their unique time magic, they had not yet agreed to it for the sake of caution.
The sight of the river wanderers not seeing rabbits and not scattering eagles was a great headache for the people of Acacia, and when they finally left, they left a curse in a fit of rage - "When we defeat Shurima, you will also be our enemies!" ”
Then, the Battle of Acacia broke out.
The Great River Wanderers, who had been following the battle, were stupefied when they discovered the destruction of Acacia and the heavy casualties of the Warriors of the Gods.
For the river nomads at that time, this was a real fairy fight, and if you put yourself in your shoes, no matter who you are, you can't face these two aspects.
What to do?
Slipped away.
As a result, the Great River Wanderers took advantage of the decline of the Gushurima Empire, quietly broke away from the Empire, and then hid in the deep forests of Kumangu.
And what's interesting is that because of their choice of hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, they happened to avoid several terrible wars......
In this process, the river nomads finally gradually formed the current tradition of cowardice - countless generations of river nomads have seen the prosperity and decline of one civilization after another in this reckless forest, and finally took the initiative to choose to separate themselves from the outside world.
In this way, although the civilization of the Great River Nomads will never be able to progress again, at least it will not be involved in the strife of the outside world.
And the life of poverty has also made the river nomads become "worthless poor eggs" in the eyes of others, through this means, the river nomads have spent one era after another in this "barren land", and have also escaped the cycle of civilization destruction again and again.
Previously, Mullan accused Trist of "being a river nomad into the world" because he firmly believed that as long as he stayed away from the strife of the outside world, the river nomad could survive in this python river basin for a long time.
Throughout, Mullan was convinced that he was the one who truly guarded the river nomads.
And in this generation, the threat and curse of ancient Acacia is like a sword of Damocles over the heads of the river nomads, who think that they can avoid being involved in war by reducing their contact with the outside world, and can avoid the coveting of others by making themselves worthless, but if anyone whose target is the river nomad is itself a river nomad, then the matter is unsolvable.
As a result, the curse on the Astral Wizards of Acacia has been passed down from generation to generation, and the people of the Great River Family will teach the next generation to be careful of the Acacians.
It's just that because this warning has been circulating for a long time, many places have become vague, and by the time of Moulin's generation, the content is almost only the result keywords - such as time, such as using the river nomads.
Rod's actions and purposes completely coincided with Mullan's cognition, so he naturally regarded Rhodes as the "avenger who had traveled through time" and fell into a state of hysteria.
After figuring everything out, Rod really couldn't help but laugh.
This is the state of the great river nomads...... Rod really doesn't know how to describe it.
You say they're stupid?
But in reality, they survived Valoran's terrible wars and shocks unscathed.
You say they are wise?
Forget it, this kind of self-preservation method of disgusting himself and disgusting others, Rod really can't look down on it.
In the end, seeing that Mu Lan still looked like he couldn't accept the reality, Rod could only shake his head in disappointment.
"Trist, do you see?" Turning his head, Rode's tone was full of emotion, "In this world, there are really people who scare themselves and scare themselves like this." ”
Compared with Rod's emotion, the emotions on Trist's face were even richer - looking at Mu Lan, who had turned from anger to pleading under the protection of the smoke, he wanted to show a smile, but when the facial muscles moved, he could only be full of bitterness in the end.
The fate of the river nomads turned out to be in the hands of such a guy......
"Please, boss." Trist finally licked his lips, dressed himself, and put on his wide-brimmed top hat again, "Give him a good time...... I'm begging you. ”
