While pacing, he said: "Hey... Whenever I think of this... I can't say anything... This is simply too cruel... But that bastard Kulu... actually agrees with this. The thing... Call it a necessary sacrifice... It's simply... inhumane... Tragic..." At this time, not only him, but the centaurs around him also lowered their heads. .
Guo Zhengshi asked: "What happened??"
"These undead tribe actually have the idea of children..." the centaur said.
"What do you mean?! Are you planning on having children???" Guo Zheng was so shocked that he couldn't help blurting out.
"Yes... Because we were defeated in the battle before, the vitality of the clan was greatly damaged, and there was a lack of soldiers. At first, Kuru wanted to ask the undead tribe to send troops to reinforce, but the undead tribe did not agree. They were afraid that the undead tribe's troops would appear. Being too conspicuous on the battlefield would attract the troops of the Holy Light Empire, so they came up with a cruel method... They used some evil spells to force many children in our centaur tribe to grow and develop into They look like adult, strong centaurs. But the price is that over-stimulating their potential will greatly damage their lives, causing them to suffer from premature aging and premature death. There are some problems when casting spells. The weaker centaur children all died suddenly on the spot because they could not withstand this powerful evil spell... But Kulu turned a blind eye to the pain of these children. In his eyes, he only had sympathy for these warriors who appeared out of thin air. Desire..." The centaur paused and his voice became choked.
Guo Zheng and everyone were also silent. . Although he didn't completely empathize with it, after hearing his description, Guo Zheng couldn't help but feel heartbroken. How cruel a race that is willing to attack children must be! Fortunately, they crushed Kulu's ambition at that time, otherwise it would have been a disaster.
The centaur continued: "Later, Kulu cooperated with some brotherhood of your human beings. When the time comes, they will find a way to open the passage and let Kuru bring the Centaur people back. They will also give their full assistance, that is, this Things happened one after another, and many of us had completely given up on this Kuru. We privately regarded him as a traitor to our Centaur tribe. Finally, after the sound of cannons sounded, Kuru rushed over with his troops, and we Only then did he have the opportunity to rebel and lead some tribesmen to escape. However, Kulu had already thought that someone would take this opportunity to rebel, so he left behind his deputy general Temur, who was the half-man you saw surrounding us before. Centaur."
"Then why don't they send you all to fight? Are there still some left behind?" Guo Zheng asked.
The centaur replied: "Because our tribe is here and we can't all be gone, so we left a group of people behind. And although the undead tribe couldn't send troops over, they did come with two particularly powerful ones. People, one of them is a black-armored warrior, holding an ice-blue war blade in his hand, which is the same color as the mage's hair." As he spoke, the centaur pointed at Yi'er and continued: "There is also a black-robed mage, holding a skull in his hand, calling...Yi...Yi..."
"Electrolux?" Xiaoba said.
"Yes, yes! That's the name, Electrolux. But I heard that this matter was later discovered by several human adventurers, and then the Holy Light City was notified. Finally, I heard that the Holy Light Empire sent elite troops. , defeated them in one fell swoop, and captured Kuru. As for the two masters of the undead clan, it seemed that they were repelled by the masters from Holy Light City... We also want to take this opportunity to take back our homeland. ...It's a pity... Temur's power is still too strong..." After saying this, the centaur couldn't help but sigh. .
After hearing so much in a row, Guo Zheng still sighed. I didn't expect that the Centaur clan's experience would be so tortuous. . This also gave Guo Zheng a different understanding of the bloodthirsty and cruel centaur tribe that Yi Ge mentioned. .
At this time, Guo Zheng thought of the dilapidated scene he saw before entering the village and asked: "You just said that you have always wanted to find an opportunity to take back your home... Then you should prepare well and prepare carefully. ...But I just saw...The defense of your village is too crude...These so-called fortifications...Those fences...I think they are just some withered wood pieced together...at all I can't resist anything... Moreover, the east and west sections are not connected together... And... your door... Why doesn't it even have a door panel... And... your equipment is a bit too much. It's too crude... On the other hand, Temur's side is well-equipped, and compared to your tribe's defenses, it's also very tight... How did you take the tribe from Temur's side..." Although Guo Zheng's words were a bit harsh. , but they all pointed out the problems to the point. After all, it is better to be outspoken in combat. . Harsh words are better to accept than bloodshed and sacrifice. .
At this time, the centaur was not angry, but lowered his head and sighed with helplessness and said: "You said... why don't we know... but we have nothing to do... We were kicked out by Temur. , we can only choose to settle in this place. The surrounding areas are either steep mountain walls or endless grasslands with no trees growing at all. We went out searching for these woods for a long time to find them, otherwise we wouldn’t even have this simple fence. . . ”
Then he paused and continued: "Although there are minerals in the Os Mountains here, they are all under Temur's control... We are really poor and have nothing... These are the things we took with us when we escaped. , otherwise we will really have to fight with our fists."
"I saw that there were a lot of stones here before. Why didn't you consider using these stones as weapons or tools?" Xiaoba asked.
The centaur shook his head and said: "Although these boulders are good... but because they are too big... it is very inconvenient for us to handle them... I have said it before... we are short of tools... So what are we going to do with these rocks? Deal with it... We won’t end up rolling stones into the battlefield... In the past, our previous tribal territory was on a hillside..."
Guo Zheng had a dark look on his face. It seemed that these centaurs were really miserable. . . . This is the first time I have seen this kind of weather, location, and people that are all unparalleled. . .
"Then haven't you thought of going back to the desert wilderness to explain the situation to the Gaoling Giants? Since your clan leader Kuru has been captured by Holy Light City, now is a good opportunity for you to take back your power." Yi'er said.
The centaur shook his head and said: "It's difficult... we didn't dare... we had been hostile before... and were driven out... Later, Kuru drove over with the masters of the undead, but fortunately he was The army of Holy Light City has been wiped out... The Gaoling giants may be cruel to us... We will go there at this time... People must think that we are coming to start a war again... And they may not believe what we say, they may We thought this was our plan to lure them over and then kill them to avenge Kulu.”
Guo Zheng thought so too. . . Who would easily trust a race that has waged two wars. . .
While everyone was chatting, suddenly the centaur guard outside shouted: "Chief Yild! You are back!"
At this time, a centaur walked in from outside the cave. This centaur was a head taller than Bitemul, with strong muscles, strong limbs, and bright eyes.
When Yild saw Guo Zheng and others in the room, he looked to the side and asked, "Are there any guests?"
At this time, the centaur recounted what had just happened, how he went to look for Iled, how he was ambushed by Temur, and how Guo Zheng and the others saved their lives.
Iled kept nodding while listening. Finally, when the centaur finished speaking, Iled came to Guo Zheng and saluted and said: "Thank you, human adventurers, for saving my people. This I will remember this kindness in my heart..."
