Everyone was busy. Morrisons, Sassoux, and Stillberg were busy burying the corpses. Out of respect for the dead, at least to make Qi Li feel at ease, they had to set up tombstones for the dead. Sunier was busy comforting Qi Li, and Han Jin was busy revising anatomy.
There were fifty or sixty corpses of the human-faced eagles left at the scene. Han Jin dissected them one by one, looking for possible magic crystals. It only took him one sentence to describe the whole process, but it took Han Jin two hours to do it. Finally, he found seven water-blue magic crystals in his hand. The biggest one was as big as a baby's fist, crystal clear and very beautiful. The other magic crystals were as big as a pigeon's egg, and were not as heavy as that one.
Then Han Jin chopped a pile of branches, and threw a human-faced eagle into the bonfire. He was going to do a very important scientific experiment.
The appearance of the human-faced eagle was very strange. Except for a long sharp beak, the rest of its body was similar to that of human beings, especially the eyebrows and eyes, which were almost identical. Therefore, the human-faced eagle's eyesight was notoriously bad among the birds. Moreover, the human-faced eagle had a smooth and round neck. No one could tell that it was a human-faced eagle just by looking at its neck. The human-faced eagle that died together with the warrior even had an Adam's apple. The best magic crystal was obtained from the body of the human-faced eagle. Han Jin saw it clearly when he dissected it, and he had goosebumps all over his body. In fact, it was not in accordance with biological evolution. When flying at high altitude, the strong wind would greatly accelerate the loss of heat. Birds and birds all needed the protection of feathers. Of course, the knowledge that Han Jin mastered might not be in accordance with here. After all, it was a different world.
Roasting the human-faced eagle gave Han Jin a feeling of burning people. He resisted the nausea, tore a piece of meat from the cooked human-faced eagle, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently.
That's right! That's right! With the same weight, the energy provided by the flesh of back-feathered lizard was about 10 times more than that of bread; however, the energy provided by the flesh of human-faced eagle was dozens of times more than that of back-feathered lizard! However, the meat of the human-faced eagle was too unpalatable and too tough. Due to his special cultivation method and body modification, he now had a pair of unparalleled teeth. However, it was still difficult for him to chew the meat of the human-faced eagle.
Han Jin's gaze fell onto the magic crystals. The six small magic crystals each had around 100 Jia worth of energy. The best magic crystal had around 1000 Jia worth of energy. If he could eat all of these magic crystals, his energy would be comparable to Morrisons. Unfortunately, he didn't dare to eat a single piece. He couldn't eat it either. These magic crystals weren't just for him, they were for everyone. Regardless of whether it was a big or small matter, Han Jin was not a person who would make mistakes easily, even though he needed energy very much.
"Raphael, come here!" Morrisons shouted.
Han Jin turned his head and glanced at Morrisons. He tore off a large piece of meat and put it in his mouth. Then he stood up and walked to Morrisons.
Morrisons had finished his work. He and Sassoux were sitting in a semicircle on the grass. It seemed that they were discussing something. Sunier was also there.
"What's the matter?" Han Jin asked as he sat down.
"Miss Qi Li has cried and fainted several times. She can't go on with the journey. Unless … we leave her here, we can't leave either," Sassoux said.
"Then stay here." Han Jin said. In fact, he didn't want to leave at all. He hadn't absorbed the energy of the human-faced eagles yet. It was too wasteful! Someone sent him a pillow when he wanted to sleep, which was exactly what he wanted. "Anyway, I'm fine. Morrisons, what about you?"
"I'm fine too."
Han Jin looked at Sassoux. Sassoux smiled and said, "I'm a bard. In the past few years, I've been wandering from city to city. I don't care. If you want me to stay, I'll stay.
"Sunier, what about you?" Han Jin asked.
"At this time … it's not a bad thing to stay in the forest." Sunier smiled.
"At this time? Sunier, are you deliberately hiding something? "Han Jin said slowly," Of course, if you don't want to tell me, just pretend that I didn't ask. "
"I can tell you that a war is about to break out," Sunier said softly.
"War? There are wars all the time on this continent, right? "Sassoux laughed," Sunier, you're very humorous. "
"It's not an ordinary war." Sunier's face turned cold, "Lord Zagunéd of the Black Raven City and Lord Malish of the Depew City have formed an alliance and jointly attacked the Holy Crown City. It won't be long before we all become slaves of the dark forces."
"Haha … Sunier, you're too pessimistic. The Holy Crown City and the Wild Willow City are also allies. If the elves of the Wild Willow City send troops to support them, Zagunéd and Malish won't have any advantages." Morrisons shook his head.
"That's the problem. The Wild Willow City has refused the request of the Holy Crown City to Dismark Lord Malish." Sunier said coldly.
"How is that possible?" Morrisons was stunned.
"Why not? Zagunéd and Malish released all the elven slaves and prisoners of war, and signed a permanent non-aggression treaty with the Wild Willow City. "
"Absurd! How could they believe such an absurd thing? " Morrisons jumped up, "Malish is still okay, but Zagunéd is a butcher! If the Holy Crown City collapses, the Wild Willow City will be the next! Are those elves stupid?! "
"In fact, the Wild Willow City has passed the referendum and approved the decision of the Elders." Sunier's eyes flashed with an imperceptible sadness, and then she turned her eyes to the other side.
"Stupid … stupid … they're really stupid!" Morrisons still couldn't believe the decision of the Wild Willow City. The result of this war would directly affect their lives. In the past, when the lords confronted each other, no one could completely defeat the other, so they didn't dare to go too far in order to expand their population and strengthen their strength. Even the most ruthless and murderous Zagunéd was restricted to a certain extent. If Zagunéd won the war, he would be invincible and would have no more scruples. His nature would pour out, and he might even turn this place into a purgatory.
"I've been to the Wild Willow City, and I know some of their thoughts." Sassoux whispered, "The elves are a peace-loving race, and they are extremely disgusted and afraid of war. The hundreds of years of war have completely crushed their will, so they would rather believe in an absurd agreement than join the war."
"Then why haven't the humans been crushed?" Han Jin asked.
"You know, the elves have a very long lifespan, and they can't be compared with the humans." Sassoux smiled, "When the human warriors hate war, they are already very old, or they don't even have time to hate war, and they die on the battlefield. They can leave, because the new and hot-blooded youngsters will take their place. The elves have a lifespan of thousands of years, can you imagine? An elf who has been fighting on the battlefield for more than two hundred years, how tired will he be? It can even be said that they are on the verge of collapse, and it's a total collapse! "
Sunier suddenly bit her lips, but looking at her eyes, it was clear that she understood everything that Sassoux said.
"Not to mention the peace-loving elves, even for us, can we persist on the battlefield for more than two hundred years and still maintain our fighting spirit? Your family, your friends, and your companions have fallen on the battlefield. You have seen countless deaths, and you have tasted countless joys and sorrows. Then, can you really maintain your fighting spirit? " Sassoux slowly said, "Besides, in these two hundred years, not a single elf has died of old age, and almost all of them have died on the battlefield. Do you know what this means for a race?"
Han Jin bitterly smiled. If the elves of the Wild Willow City had persisted on the battlefield for more than two hundred years, then no matter what they did, they couldn't be blamed. If it was him, Han Jin, he wouldn't be able to bear it either. In comparison, the humans had a strong advantage. They had a fast metabolism, and they always had fresh blood injected into them to maintain their vitality.
Everyone fell into silence. After all, they were insignificant people, and they couldn't resist fate. They could only passively accept it, whether the future was dark or bright.
