George Vassar and his generals didn’t understand these facts, worrying that Offen and his party were only under pressure from legendary powerhouses such as Qiao’an to show their weakness. They pretended to compromise but actually delayed time and even had more sinister intentions, such as Lure the Continental Army to the depths of the jungle, and then launch an ambush unexpectedly.
Qiao An saw the suspicion in the heart of Your Commander-in-Chief, and simply walked up to Offen to pick out the words for Vassar.
"Mr. Offen, do you remember me?"
"Dr. Vader, it has only been three short years since we met in Grizzly Town last time. How can you not remember you? What's more, you defeated Humbaba and Anahita at that time, which left a deep impression on me. , Even if I get old and my memory declines, I can't forget your demeanor as a genius mage."
There is a sense of self-deprecating in Offen's words.
Anahita, the proud "Fairy of Oz", was very upset when Offen exposed her shortcomings to the face.
Recalling that I was almost slaughtered by the little mage opposite, he glared at Qiao An with full of shame, and suddenly remembered that this kid had been promoted to a legendary mage, and his strength was far above him. He turned his face away, and didn't dare to provoke this little mage who he absolutely couldn't provoke.
"Haha! Little Mage, I haven't seen you for three years. You look the same as before. You are still thin and small, just like a little girl!"
The lion-head giant Humbaba smiled boldly and stretched out his giant palm to pat Qiao'an on the shoulder.
"Mr. Humbaba, you said at the outset that you would find a chance to fight with me again. I wonder if you remember."
Joan asked Humbaba half-jokingly.
"Oh... this, forget it!"
The wild giant was full of horror, and shook his head quickly, the fiery lion's mane dancing with the wind.
"Little Mage, last time I lost to you, I was really unconvinced! However, I did not expect that after only a few years, you will become the youngest legendary mage in the world of Vares. Cultivating desperately, the speed of progress can't keep up with you. I couldn't beat you at the beginning, and now I have no hope! Knowing that I will lose, why should I seek to beat myself?"
Qiao An heard his lament, both funny and a little sad. Three years have not been long or short. He has changed from a "little mage" in the eyes of others to an unattainable "legendary mage" and "half". "God", even if you are willing to associate with others on an equal footing, the other party will feel uncomfortable.
With the widening of the power gap, an invisible, intangible but inextricable barrier formed between him and his former friends and relatives. Sometimes he even felt that he was becoming less and less like a human being.
Suppressing the feeling of disappointment in his heart, Qiao An turned and looked at the most reasonable "Green King" Ofen among the three elders.
"Mr. Offen, the Primordial Order and our Continental Army were originally hostile, but today you suddenly switched camps and offered to cooperate. This has to arouse our suspicions and concerns."
Of course, Offin could hear that Qiao Ann asked this on behalf of General Vassar, implying that he needs to show more sincerity.
"Dr. Vader, as far as my identity is concerned, no matter what promises I make, I am afraid it will be difficult to win the trust of you and the Commander-in-Chief. Therefore, I would like to invite our mutual friends, Your Majesty Roland and Ms. Valentina, for Our sincerity guarantees."
"Happy to help." Roland nodded and smiled.
Valentina also nodded to George Vassar, expressing that Offen and his party are trustworthy.
Vaasa negotiated with the generals beside him in a low voice, and after a while, he rolled over and dismounted and shook hands with Offen.
"Mr. Offen, I wish us a happy cooperation! If you don't mind, can you tell me, is Angel Poda happy to see us resolve this conflict in a peaceful way?"
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, I regret that the Pope did not approve of what Humbaba and Anahita did with me, but it doesn’t matter. Anyway, we don’t want to follow her anymore. In fact, after we left, the so-called ' The primordial order' ceased to exist."
Offen replied with mixed feelings.
"Could you tell me the reason for your break with Angel Poda?" Vassar continued to ask.
Orfen was silent for a few seconds, and finally broke the silence with a sigh.
"Your Excellency, the commander-in-chief, it is true that even today when the original order is dead in name, I still agree with the original intention of the order-to maintain the harmonious coexistence of human and natural ecology and resist colonial oppression! Even if we leave the order, we will continue in the future. Carry out this original intention."
"In other words, we might become enemies in the future?" General Vassar frowned.
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief, if your colonists refuse to reflect and still use the logic of banditry to expand their power in the new world, invade our homes, and plunder our resources, then in our eyes, the vicious colonists are a group of pests. Resolutely expel or even wipe out!"
Orffin sighed again, his tone of voice tinged with bitterness.
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, please allow me to make an analogy. When a group of rats broke into the house, we, as the owners of this house, only want to drive the rats out, but don’t want to demolish the whole house. The reason why the first party finally parted ways."
Qiao An listened to Offen's confession and couldn't help being deeply moved.
The primitive believers represented by Offen, as well as the indigenous people of the Asa ethnic group in the New World, have every reason to resent the colonists and their racist arguments, the destruction of the ecological environment by the colonial movement and the cruel oppression of the aborigines.
When this kind of hostile emotion crosses the boundary of rationality and enters the realm of fanaticism, it will hate the house and the black, and will lead to the rejection of the magical industrial civilization and modern life style that the colonists respected.
Despite this, they did not really agree with Angel Poda's extreme thoughts, nor did they want to go back to the barbaric era of raging and drinking blood, let alone using the power of the evil to destroy this ugly and beautiful world.
If Angel Poda really summoned the "Fumble Winter" and buried the world of Vares in the snow and ice, the "modern civilization" admired by the colonists would be inevitable, but the flowers, trees, birds, beasts, insects and fish in nature Isn't it immune?
Primitive believers are mostly druids or rangers who advocate the harmonious coexistence of humans and nature and maintain the natural ecology as their own responsibility. However, if they follow Angel Poda to the dark, they will end up together. In the end, nothing can be protected. NS?
Could it be that everyone has worked so hard for a lifetime, and in the end it is to sacrifice everything, including all living beings, just to serve as the sacrifice for Angel Poda's ambition to achieve the gods?
Within the Primitive Order, there are indeed some extremists who are willing to follow this path, but not all of them are so fanatical.
