Looking at Qian Weining's back, Mego asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly go hunting for rabbits?"
Ren Xiaosu instructed the two Sheep Men to gather firewood and start a fire as he said, "We're not on good terms with Qian Weining right now. The Dudor family wants to kill you, and Qian Weining might want to kill you too. So from now on, we have to be very, very careful with our food. Remember, only eat the food I give you. Don't eat anything other people give you, even if it's poop."
Mego snapped, "You don't need to remind me, I won't eat that either!"
"That's good," Ren Xiaosu said happily.
Mego said, "… What's with that happy expression of yours?"
Ren Xiaosu skillfully slaughtered the rabbit and couldn't help but sigh. "The rabbits in the Sorcerer Nation are so much smaller than those in Middle Earth."
"Are the rabbits in Middle Earth very big?" Mego asked curiously.
"Yes." Ren Xiaosu nodded. "The rabbits in the wild are four or five times the size of these two. It seems that Middle Earth was more affected by the Cataclysm."
Mego said, "I've also heard that the reason the sorcerers were able to dominate during the early stages of the Cataclysm and plunder people from other areas was because they found this piece of pure land."
Ren Xiaosu's interest was piqued. "Tell me everything you know."
"The Cataclysm caused the global climate to become cold for a long time," Mego said. "Plants started to wither, and people hid underground. They could only eat the food stored by the civilization before the Cataclysm. Later on, the food ran out, and people even had to eat a small number of plants and roots that could grow in a low temperature and photosynthetic environment. Fortunately, this piece of pure land wasn't affected by dirty substances, and everyone survived for a while. During that time, the sorcerers rebuilt order in this area and cut off many threats to it. "
Ren Xiaosu nodded. This so-called dirty matter was probably radiation. He had also discussed this matter with Yang Xiaojin before. According to Yang Xiaojin, the Middle Plains and the expeditionary army's location were the hardest hit areas, which was why they had such a hard time. A large number of scientific legacies had been damaged and destroyed in the Cataclysm, which resulted in the abnormal development of science in the Middle Plains. Everyone basically focused on developing whatever information they found.
After all, hundreds of years of research by countless scientists before the Cataclysm was better than starting all over again.
Previously, Ren Xiaosu had asked Yang Xiaojin why Yang Anjing hated nuclear weapons so much. Yang Anjing's answer was, "Actually, one or two nuclear bombs wouldn't have much of an impact on the entire world. However, during the last period before the Cataclysm, all the countries with nuclear weapons pursued a plan to stockpile a thousand nuclear weapons. Some countries even stockpiled 6,000 nuclear weapons."
The Thousand Nuclear Plan was not meant to cover hostile countries, but to cover the entire world.
As long as a full-scale nuclear war broke out, the country under attack would have to immediately launch an all-out counterattack. This counterattack would not only target the hostile countries, but also cover 600 large cities and bury the entire world with them.
Only with such confidence could they have a tough diplomatic attitude. Many people did not wish for such a situation to happen, but when everyone was doing it, it was the only thing they could do. In a competition, if you were always weaker than others, you could only take a beating.
At that time, before the Cataclysm, the various countries' attitudes towards the use of nuclear weapons were divided into several categories: double lock, single lock, and no promises.
Double lock meant that they promised not to use it first and promised not to use it against non-nuclear countries.
Single lock meant that they promised not to use it first.
No promises meant that they could use it whenever they wanted and use it against whomever they wanted.
When a civilization developed to such an extent, it was only one step away from destruction.
Everyone thought that everyone could maintain control and rationality, but there would always be a few lunatics in this world.
Fortunately, human civilization recovered once again, and they survived that gloomy period.
Yang Xiaojin said, "The reason why the Yang family was able to become a financial group was because during that period, they did not stop some cultural inheritance because of the lack of resources. This is the importance of knowledge. The Yang family kept some intermittent logs of their ancestors. If you read them, you will understand that during that period, all the despicable behavior you can imagine happened. What would people eat when they were starving to the extreme and couldn't find food? How would women be treated when they were not protected by morality and law? How would the elderly be treated when they had no labor force? Just think about the dirtiest things. Anything that happened during that period, as long as you can think of it, it happened. "
Those logs were probably the cause of Yang Anjing's opposition to nuclear weapons.
Ren Xiaosu was very disgusted with Yang Anjing's attitude, but he could understand why Yang Anjing would make such a choice. If Yang Anjing had not been so extreme and cruel, Ren Xiaosu might have been on his side.
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt a little depressed. After this trip to the Sorcerer Nation, he would have to go back and face a new war.
Suddenly, Ren Xiaosu lamented to Mego, "The wizards are lucky, but this luck did not make them feel grateful. Russell led them to the Pure Land, but he was eventually poisoned to death. This is also the reason why I told you to be careful of your food. If he can do it once, he can definitely do it a second time. Now, I have reason to suspect that they have also harmed another group of people who helped them. "
The organization created by the Middle Earth Knight should have been suppressed by the sorcerer organization.
Suddenly, Mego asked, "Why are you here?"
Ren Xiaosu smiled and said, "I'm here to help you reach the peak of your life."
Mego curled his lips. At that moment, he did not realize that the "peak" that Ren Xiaosu mentioned was a height that could make him develop acrophobia …
When night fell, Ren Xiaosu handed a rabbit to Mego. "Hurry up and eat it. It's time to get to work."
Mego was stunned for a moment before he quickly wolfed down the rabbit. As he ate, he asked, "What did you discover? I've always been curious about how you discovered the enemy attack. It's as if you can predict the future. "
"Hurry up and eat," Ren Xiaosu said. This was not the time to tell Mego about Old Xu's existence. After all, Little Mego still had a phobia about White Mask …
"Remember," Ren Xiaosu instructed, "when you encounter an enemy attack later, you just have to casually chant an incantation and pretend to do it. I'll do the rest, so don't stop chanting."
At this moment, Mego could already hear the sound of hooves getting closer. There were a lot of enemies, and they were approaching very quickly!
Mego asked, "Should we make our move now?"
Ren Xiaosu shook his head. "Of course not. Let's wait for Qian Weining and the others to fight for a while first."
"Why?" Mego did not understand.
"Because whether it's these people who suddenly attack or Qian Weining and the others who are pretending to protect you, they're all enemies," Ren Xiaosu explained.
