"Shocking news! There's actually an ancient caste system and slavery among the elves! "
Rorschach immediately worked overtime after remembering the fact that he had been assassinated. He prepared all the evidence he could use to slap the elf in the face.
Rorschach had personally written this report after obtaining first-hand information from Molly. Rorschach had also researched many other sources of information, so he was even more meticulous when writing this report.
Instigating, misleading, and piling up data together, as well as the pitiful experiences of wild elves and half-elves being discriminated against and enslaved, would make anyone with even the slightest bit of fairness angry.
But …
"There's no reaction? How is that possible? "
The bystanders were quite calm.
Slavery was too much? Heh heh, many human countries still had slaves. Elves and other species' slaves were still very popular on the black market, and the great demons even had private human flesh markets. What did the elves' internal enslavement and oppression even count for?
"… As expected, this is a world that's worse than the worst."
Roxia deeply reflected on his own naivety. Although the current social situation where everyone was bullied and bullied each other seemed rather excessive in the eyes of the world where everyone was equal, this was nothing compared to a magical fantasy world where racial conflicts were constantly intensifying and slavery existed for a long time.
Was it too much to have a caste system that differentiated people based on their birth status? Sorry, but there were still nobles in every country, not to mention royalty.
Besides, in this magical world, bloodline was a part of power. Not only was there a difference in treatment, it was also a practical requirement.
Perhaps some mixed-blood elves, half-elves, and liberal activists would be quite agitated and angry after reading this report, but most bystanders had already seen much worse, so they would naturally remain calm.
Rorschach's mistake this time was obviously because he had taken things for granted. It was only natural that he would make a mistake if he judged the Aishi people's common sense based on Earth's values.
After learning his lesson, Rorschach seriously researched the relevant information and personally asked many elves and locals. He then continued working overtime to write a report that was even more ridiculous in its title, but the content was even more thorough.
"Report on the elves extracting the power of nature from Ansorenne — they're cutting down trees, plucking saplings, hunting young animals, and committing all sorts of crimes."
Such a report wouldn't have caused much of a stir on Earth, even in the internet age, when public opinion attacks and moral kidnapping were the most rampant.
But this time, in Eich, it really blew up.
The reason? The Aishi had a group that was even more extreme than the Earth's Animal Protection Organization and the Radical Nature Conservation Organization — the Druids.
Behind them was the entire Nature Faction.
In front of the radical Druids, killing people for no reason and killing beasts for no reason were the same thing. There was no difference between starving a person to death and starving a beast to death. Cutting down trees and hunting animals on a large scale to build a city by force was simply courting death.
However, the radical Druids had limited influence in the Surface World. They were already despised by the mainstream values, so they could not cause much trouble.
Most likely, there would be a few Great Druids from Ansorenne causing trouble for the Elves every now and then, just like what they did in Aishi. Everyone was already used to it … I heard that the Goblins' insurance company had recently introduced a Druid insurance policy, which could be considered as an irresistible risk like a sudden war.
However, Molly had relied on her strange luck and connections to survive in the elven society for so many years. She had done countless jobs and inexplicably obtained a lot of confidential information. Among them, there was indeed some juicy information.
"The silver elves and moon elves created an elven kingdom in Ansorenne and twisted the balance of nature."
Nature had its own rules. The four seasons rotated. The North was cold and the South was hot. Animals and plants had their own ecology and world.
Forcefully twisting the balance of nature wasn't as simple as hunting animals or destroying forests. Forcefully twisting the balance of nature required the use of mega-scale magic arrays and Divine Arts to adjust an area and forcefully create the desired climate.
For example, the four seasons were like spring, or a Winter Barrier, or a dark forest filled with man-eating plants, or … a large area with no magic mist.
With such great benefits, how could anyone not pay an equivalent price for forcefully twisting nature? If anything went wrong, nature would definitely retaliate.
Back in the day, the moon elves had done this before. They created an elven kingdom in the cold North where the four seasons were like spring. However, the end result was that the balance was broken. The moon elves were treated with countless natural disasters, ranging from thunderstorms to blizzards. Large numbers of elves died instantly. For a long period of time afterwards, the elven kingdom became an uninhabited area where nature vented her anger.
The relationship between the nature faction and the elven faction had always been quite subtle. Apart from the wood elves who had achieved a symbiotic relationship with the forest, the nature faction had never had a good impression of the elves who forcefully twisted nature … Actually, for a long period of time, the wood elves had already broken away from the elves and joined the nature faction. It was just that the Elven Empire's revival forcefully united the four Superior Elves who had a subtle relationship with each other.
As for the elves of other species, especially the Superior Elves who had obtained ancient magical knowledge? The forest fairies who lived in peace with the forest?
In the eyes of the nature faction, the elves with long ears were actually parasites who enslaved the forest and absorbed the power of nature for their own use.
Living in the cycle of nature and receiving the gifts of nature as a part of the food chain, returning everything to nature when they died was the only value that the nature faction recognized.
In the eyes of the nature faction, winter should be cold, summer should be hot, and deserts should be dry. Forcefully twisting nature would only cause nature to lose balance, which would ultimately lead to a series of disasters.
However, the long-lived elves only took what they wanted without giving anything in return. In fact, they even forcefully enslaved nature. Naturally, the nature faction couldn't stand this any longer.
Rorschach's accusation was only a fuse. How could the large-scale creation of a fog-free zone possibly hide anyone? It was just that most elves didn't think in this direction.
Rorschach mentioned the theory behind this, and the nature faction then compared it to what the moon elves had done before. They had their own Ansorenne archdruid go to the fog-free zone to investigate, and they had an idea of what was going on …
Then, all sorts of ultimatums and forced investigations were naturally issued. The elves, who were already badly battered by the internal strife, responded with their habitual arrogance … The radical druids also naturally warned the elves in the same way as the terrorists, which was why everyone exploded.
As the shock troops of the nature faction, the radical druids never knew what compromise was. They deeply hated any actions that destroyed nature, not to mention the even more excessive twisting of the laws of nature.
That was the core of their teachings and values. There was no room for compromise. In the past, the Main Gods of the nature faction would try to control the radical druids. However, this incident had also crossed their bottom line. They were just as displeased, so of course they wouldn't pull the reins.
The two sides didn't just start small skirmishes in Ansolion, but even the streets and alleys of Thor were filled with all sorts of brawls and fights.
In this entire process, the elves suffered great losses. Anyone who was observant could tell that all of this started with the Game Church's grudge against them. While "Absolute Reality" was crazily publishing, its sales were also explosively increasing. People were now very concerned about what other information it would reveal.
However, a special envoy from the silver elves finally arrived, and an official transaction was also on the way. The arrogant Superior Elves finally took a good look at these "ants that they could casually crush".
Over the past few days, the Game Church's temple knights had been eating green dragon steaks and hippogryphs roasted meat several times in a row.
In the eyes of most elves, these two powerful creatures seemed to be the elves' top-level troop type and standard aerial cavalry.
Rorschach also faintly felt that perhaps apart from his own battlefield of public opinion, the elves and elves' blades were constantly clashing in the shadows.
