Roddy, who was in the Tasman Kingdom, did not know what was happening in Efta. He was listening to Luther's story about the "origin" of the Teflin race with a serious expression.
"In other words, the purple flames changed your bodies, but they did not become like this?"
Roddy realized that he knew almost nothing about Teflin, so he did not miss any opportunity to ask about the details.
"Yes, Lord Roddy. At first, we only grew horns on our heads, and our joints changed, but we did not become like this. "
Luther pointed at his head. He had six horns of different sizes, and his face had also changed slightly. He looked very different from a normal human, like some kind of giant lizard.
"Did it change with age, or was it because of something else?"
Roddy was very cautious about the word "demon" because he realized that it might be the biggest reason why Augustine was looking for Teflin.
"It's not a change in age. It's a … special change." Luther sighed and slowly explained the situation that he had not mentioned before.
It turned out that the purple flames had affected nearly eight hundred people. After these people were burned by the flames, they mutated a little. After this happened, the other people in the village began to gradually alienate them. Later, it evolved into driving them away, and there were even violent incidents of killing and injuring people.
After the mutation, Luther and the others knew that they would eventually be rejected by the human world, so they had no choice but to hide in the forest. At that time, they did not have strong bodies and the ability to transform. From all aspects, they were not much different from humans. Therefore, after entering the forest, many people began to fall ill and even die due to various reasons. At that time, they were led by the stronger hunters in the village. Everyone discussed to find a suitable place to live and rebuild the village. Otherwise, when winter came, everyone would freeze to death.
However, before they could find a place to rebuild the village, they encountered another accident.
"We don't know how the fog appeared. We only know that Rand and the others suddenly shouted, and then the purple fog spread quickly. We couldn't hide in time …"
When talking about the "fog", Roddy clearly noticed that Luther was frowning in pain.
"The fog was very scary. After we took a few breaths, we felt pain all over our bodies. It was … the kind of pain that made us faint. When we woke up, the pain continued, and we continued to faint …"
Luther reached out and wiped his forehead. Obviously, this memory made him involuntarily break out in cold sweat.
"More than two hundred people died in that fog. I think they died from the pain. When the fog finally dissipated, we finally got rid of the pain, and then we discovered that our bodies had become like this."
Luther pointed at the horn on his head. "Since then, all of us have different abilities. Most of them are like me, 'shapeshifting'. Some of them have some special abilities, such as' invisibility ',' armor transformation ',' shrinking 'and so on. But after so many years, only a few of us are still alive."
This information made Roddy and Merinsera, who were listening attentively, look at each other. It was obvious that the bloodline of the 'Demon' race was far stronger than that of ordinary humans. What made them even more curious was … where did this' Demon 'bloodline come from?
Was the fog that Luther mentioned the source of the 'Demon' bloodline?
Merinsera was extremely excited. How could she remain calm when the answer that she had been searching for for years was suddenly right in front of her? When she thought about how she had been hunted down all these years, she felt both angry and wronged. Perhaps in the past, Merinsera would only show pure hatred, but when she sat beside Roddy, she felt that she had become much less violent.
At least she had learned to control her emotions and continued to ask questions in a clear and organized manner.
She asked clearly, "Where did you find the fog? Did you go there after that? "
Luther's expression became bitter. "At that time, we were forced to run to the east, at the foot of the Gondola Mountain Range. After that, we never went there again because the pain was too terrifying. It was a nightmare for us for the rest of our lives … "
Luther paused for a moment before continuing, "But if I hadn't met Master Roddy, I might have brought my clansmen there. Although the fog was terrifying, it allowed those who survived to possess greater strength. Now that our clan is on the verge of extinction, if we don't fight, we might really die. "
Roddy nodded and handed a simple map to Luther. "Try to confirm the approximate location."
"Master Roddy, are you planning to …"
"Just point out the location. I won't make things difficult for you."
Luther didn't say anything else. After thinking for a moment, he drew a circle on the map for Roddy. Roddy didn't waste any time and handed the map to the silent Natha. "Don't go near it, don't land, and don't pass through it from above. Just confirm the location."
"Yes."
Natha stood up and took the map. She turned and walked out of the manor, disappearing into the curtain of rain.
Roddy asked about the details a few more times before letting them go back to rest. Akasha was currently experimenting on Yogesa in the room next door, so only Roddy and Merinsera were left in the huge conference room. Both of them fell silent after hearing the information from Luther and the others.
Merinsera was immersed in the memories of searching for clues about her father. When she came back to her senses, she realized that Roddy's eyes were also lowered and his brows were slightly furrowed. He looked like he had something on his mind.
She thought about it and realized that Roddy was under much more pressure than she was. She was all alone and didn't have to worry about the Dragons. She could come and go as she pleased. But what about Roddy? As the Prime Minister, he had to consider the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Efta.
"Are you worried about the battle in five days?"
Roddy and Dusco had agreed on a battle in five days, but Merinsera knew that Roddy didn't prepare any so-called "reinforcements" at all. He didn't seem to have any plans at all.
Roddy shook his head. "There's nothing to worry about. I'm just curious about something …"
An unprecedented idea gradually appeared in his mind. But because the clues were vague, he couldn't be sure. Seeing Merinsera looking at him curiously, Roddy still whispered the question in his heart.
"The High Elves were so powerful that they could kill these guys in a second. Why would the Orcs suddenly appear and destroy them?"
"You mean …"
Merinsera immediately thought of these "demons". At the same time, she also connected her father, the other Dragons, and Augustine who was aiming at Teflin …
There seemed to be some kind of force behind all this.
"The problem here is far from as simple as I thought."
Roddy sighed softly. He felt that the information he had come into contact with had reached a level that he had never reached in his previous life.
