Chapter 75 Exile
Juan said in a reproachful tone: "You knew there was such a dangerous existence underground, and why did you lead your tribe to hide underground?"
Mosi pouted and replied: "Isn't this the lesser of two evils? Jack, who has an energy weapon, is not something we can resist.
"Besides, the underground world is huge. If the traitors hadn't betrayed us and attracted the drow, how could they have found us so easily."
At this time, Morgan's voice came from the stalagmite: "Juan, I found something interesting, are you free now?"
"When you are free, you are free."
"Really? Are you free so soon?"
"Morgan, I was just chatting with Moss. You are thinking too much."
Morgan turned around from the stalagmite with a cynical smile: "What do you think I'm thinking?"
Juan and Mosi, who were already fully dressed, came over to greet them.
"What's interesting?"
"It's actually not very interesting. It's definitely not as interesting as what you think I think."
"Come on, Morgan, stop talking about it and let me see what it is?"
Hu took a badge from Morgan.
The underside of the badge is blue with a red "x", or large cross, on it.
"Where did it come from?"
"It was found on the body of the female drow."
"What does this mean?"
On the side, Mo Si interrupted and explained: "Blue represents the sky, and the red cross represents clear rejection. This is the symbol of Drow.
"Drow believe that humans who bring disaster to the beautiful planet come down from the sky, so the sky is the birthplace of evil.
"This statement confuses many humanoids who resist humans, but rational humanoids, especially us tree elves, all know that this is wrong.
"After all, sunlight, which is indispensable for the growth of all things, also comes from the sky."
Juan leaned into Mo Si's ear and joked softly: "So the World Tree needs to absorb the sunlight coming down from the sky, and you need to absorb me coming down from the sky."
A delicate little hand touched the soft flesh of Juan's waist, then clamped it and rotated 180 degrees.
"Ouch~!"
…
Juan's group returned to the surface from the sinkhole, as well as the tree elves led by Moss, and met Tris and Drizzt.
Juan informed the two young elves of the news of the drow's appearance:
"It's no longer safe here. Maybe you two are strong enough to deal with a small group of orc elites, but you are definitely no match for a large group of drow. Leave."
And Mosi also stood on the dead branch of the World Tree and announced condescendingly:
"I have decided that from today on, the tree elves will submit to the leader Huan!"
"I object!"
Tris took a step forward, stood opposite Mo Si, and said firmly:
"We tree elves fought against the human conquest army to the end and won this reserve and respect. This is a supreme honor.
"And now, you, Moss Baenre, actually want to give up this honor, join mankind, and be willing to be their lackey!
"This is a shameless betrayal! A betrayal of all tree elves!"
"You stinky girl! What do you know?! You haven't experienced the battle with the drow, and you don't know how terrifying the orcs in the north who were bewitched by Jack are!
"You don't know how dangerous the current situation is! You don't know anything! You just know how to fool around!
"Let me tell you, if the tree elves don't follow humans, they will definitely be exterminated!
"As the queen of the tree elves, I must be responsible for the survival of the tree elves!"
"I don't need you to be responsible! I don't accept your decision to betray your clan!"
"I am the queen!"
"I don't approve!"
"Get out! Then get out! Get out of my tree elf clan!"
"What I wish for!"
The angry Cuisi cut off a piece of gray clothing and placed it on the ground. Then she twisted off a strand of emerald green hair and placed it in the middle of the gray cloth, then stood aside.
"What does this mean?" Juan asked the captain of the Moon Elf Guard softly.
"Self-exile."
The moon elf guard captain's face was very serious, and it could be seen that "self-exile" was not an insignificant tradition among the elves.
At this time, tree elves came out of the team one after another, twisted off a strand of their green hair, placed it on the gray cloth, and then stood behind Tris.
Mo Si looked at it like fire, but she didn't stop it, or she had no right to stop it.
Just like that, more than two hundred tree elves stood behind Tris.
On the gray cloth, green hair piled up into a small pyramid with a square base.
When a few hesitant tree elves sighed and chose to stay where they were, the wave of "self-exile" of the tree elves ended.
Cuisi took a step forward, held up the gray cloth piled with green hair, and announced loudly:
"Gray symbolizes loneliness, green symbolizes life, and square represents equality.
"We exiles are lonely lives pursuing equality!
"We will hold high the green square flag on a gray background and fight for equality!"
Juan couldn't help it anymore. He had always regarded this matter as an internal conflict among the tree elves, so he did not interfere.
But now the development of the situation has gone beyond the scope of the tree elves. As the head of the planet, he cannot ignore it.
Juan stood up and said: "Everyone, please calm down and listen to me.
"I am Juan, the head of the planet, the supreme ruler of the beautiful planet recognized by the Human Alliance.
“But I didn’t come here to rule you, I stayed here to survive, just like you, to live in the sunshine with freedom and equality.
"Therefore, I am different from the human conquering army who brought you pain, and I am also different from the demon Jack who is inciting the orcs to attack in the orc tribe.
"I have no discrimination against you, I regard you as brothers and sisters, even closer.
"This can be proven by the Queen of the Tree Elf, Mosi, the Mayor of the Moon Elf, Zach, or the leader of the dwarves, Muradin Bronzebeard."
Tris' sharp voice intervened: "But you cruelly hurt 'Xiao Miao'. Xiao Miao doesn't believe you, and I don't believe you either!"
Xiao Meow? Who is Xiao Meow?
Juan subconsciously glanced at the griffon behind Tris, which was rubbing its head affectionately on Tris' shoulder.
Nima, you call this guy "Xiao Meow"?
Moreover, griffons cannot be considered intelligent creatures, they are at best somewhat spiritual animals.
How can you evaluate humans based on the likes and dislikes of an animal!
Juan feels that Tris is a bit unruly. Compared with her mature sister, this young elf looks like an impulsive and angry youth.
As an individual, Juan may be able to tolerate his sister-in-law's chaos, but as the head of the planet, he must consider the fundamental interests of the vast majority of humanity.
After taking a look at the vast majority of the tree elves following Mo Si, and comparing them to the more than two hundred tree elves and moon elves behind Tris, Juan made a decision.
Since they want to be exiled, let’s exile them!
I will not favor anyone just because the slogan is louder!
