BXBX NOVEL Chapter 454 World History - 2
Robin didn\'t want to repeat what happened to him when he first arrived in Nihari, so out of the 16 armor pieces with everyone, there are at least a third of them dedicated to protecting their user from sudden changes in the laws around him and providing air, gravity, heat and other vital laws at levels equal to Planet Jura.
But since they arrived on the planet, those Precautions were rendered useless...
They have not felt any difference from when they were on planet Jura, the same air, the same water, and even the same percentage of laws, only the Life Forces have felt a slight boost in their strength since they arrived on this planet, other than that, everything is almost identical to the planet Jura... Even the amount of energy here is very close to that on planet Jura!
Although most of the members of the Golden Battalion were a bit disappointed after they found out about the situation, feeling that they had discovered a new continent in Planet Jura, not that they had gone to a new planet!
But in the end, the purpose of coming to Greenland was not to obtain a larger amount of natural energy or to test new laws, and of course not for sightseeing... So they ignored the matter after their first disappointment.
But now the chief of the local humans is talking about perfect laws for creatures called Treants, and about a huge amount of natural energy... Is he talking about the same world they see? Or maybe they didn\'t appreciate the planet Jura as much as it should be..?
Fugon chuckled helplessly and shook his head after hearing Robin\'s question, "All of your questions make sense for someone who doesn\'t know his history, whether the current scarce energy, the changed state of the heavenly laws, or not seeing any more Treant creatures appearing naturally, but all those questions have one answer... The Seven Tree Fathers, they are the culprits behind all of this."
"What the...!?" Robin slightly furrowed his eyebrows
"At the very beginning when the treant creatures began to use energy cultivation like us, we were somewhat safe. As I said, these creatures are lazy and prefer to relax most of the time. Meeting one of those strong treants and making trouble with him was not something that would happen every day, but after a few hundred years and after the appearance of a large number of energy-cultivating treants, the matter wasn\'t as scarce anymore... it was normal to find a part of the wall of the kingdom broken every day, and the conflict increased over time until one day one of the stronger Treants got angry because he saw a human girl collecting peaches outside the kingdom wall from a young tree treant, so he collected his friends and attacked the kingdom, destroying almost a third of it before falling!! ...The human kingdom became unable to provide the protection it had promised to its residents, so after that incident, the humans dispersed into small tribes again."
"A third of their kingdom... was destroyed while they were... united, so they decided to... disperse? What is this... logic?" Caesar spoke with a bit of anger, "Wouldn\'t it have been better... for them to raise... their defenses and start a... counterattack?"
"Counterattack against whom?" Before Fugon could reply, Robin shook his head and spoke, "According to what we heard, the Treants were far more numerous than humans and for more powerful at that time, one creature gathered a few of his friends and destroyed a third of the kingdom of the human race, what would you have them in that case? Would they declare war on the entire Treant race? If those creatures were really Lazy and do not like to take action frequently according to the description, then the best option is to reduce large gatherings as much as possible in order to bring contact with them to the minimum, and this must continue until the humans get stronger than them at the very least... I can\'t think of any other solution."
Old Fugon nodded, satisfied with Robin\'s analysis, and then added, "This is what they were thinking at that time. We had put our heads down and lived in the wild without houses or large buildings in order to avoid trouble. This plan really succeeded during the second millennium after the discovery of energy-cultivating methods... We inhabited caves and relied on eating the meat of beasts only and wearing their fur, all the small tribes maintained communication with the rest, but it was a very weak type of communication as we only conveyed news of each other and discoveries of The energy cultivation research, but if one of the tribes had a feud with a Treant, we would leave them to their fate. Our goal as humans at that time was to survive, and this is what happened... Our numbers increased during that period and the number of deaths due to the feuds with the treants fell dramatically. The number of human tribes at that time reached more than 207 tribes spread around the world, and the human seniors at that time were achieving great progress and steadily stepping towards higher levels of energy cultivation, everything was going perfectly! …Until that day came."
"That day?" Robin furrowed his eyebrows slightly and looked at Fugon with more focus, he knew the answer to his questions was about to appear.
"...In the third millennium of the energy cultivation era, an ancient Trent, called Hoffenheim, claimed to have discovered the truth of the soul and commanded the rest of the Trents to obey him to take over the world. Of course, because they are solitary and lazy creatures, they did not listen to the calls of that ancient creature, but they did not know that there would be consequences. On that day, the first batch of buds appeared."
Fugon spoke very seriously, "The army of the Buds wasn\'t that big at that time, but they were very strong and fearless, that creature quickly used its Buds to take control of a large patch of land, every creature in that piece of land was either fled or was killed… That\'s it, no third option. That land got empty very soon, whither it was the weaker races like us humans, or the stronger Treants themselves, no one could be seen in that piece of land at the end of the same day."
Robin furrowed his brows slightly, Hoffenheim was the name of the Tree Father who destroyed a part of his soul, So that creature had lived since the beginning of the Energy Cultivation Era? And it was considered an *ancient creature* at that time too?
"The human tribes that were located in the area the Ancient Trent Hoffenheim claimed quickly retreated after receiving great damage, but they did not find a place to shelter them, as they communicated with the rest of the tribes, they found that there are a few other ancient Trent creatures who began to follow a similar approach, they were also killing and expelling all the creatures in a certain zone around them!" Fugon shook his head as he spoke lamentably, "Those other ancient treant creatures didn\'t use the buds system as the Tree Father Hoffenheim did, but each of them had a weapon that couldn\'t be stopped, for example, one of them used plants that had not yet gained consciousness to amass an army, and one created for himself very long roots that he used to attack personally inside his wide zone, and Another one used some kind of catalysts to incite wild beasts against every other living being... And now I heard from you that one of them uses poisons? This is new information for us, but it is not unlikely."
"Yeah yeah, who can know everything? Haha." Robin laughed awkwardly and then gestured at Fugon, "Please continue, what happened after the ancient Trents took over their own territories?"
