Chapter 1,737 The Secret History of the Horadric Tribe

In the middle of the huge desk, the place that originally belonged to Tia was now occupied by me. Tia found another stool and sat next to it, with her upper body closely touching it, and wisps of her fragrance drifted to her nose. , which makes me intoxicated.

In comparison, *Tianxiang is simply weak.

I am looking through Tia's notes. This is what she has been doing for more than a year. She has summarized all the clues about the Horadric Cube on the bookshelf, eliminated the false ones, integrated the repetitive ones, marked the uncertain ones, summarized the useful ones, and Each important clue is accompanied by her own thoughts and guesses.

It can be said to be a collection of information on the Horadric Cube. Even if it is compiled into a complete set of books, it will still be recognized by the Horadric mages and be used as an important data backup and saved.

You must know that the Horadric mages are the most picky and rigorous among all mages. This comes from their pride as a race of mages. It is really remarkable that Dia can achieve this level at such a young age.

These precious notes have helped me a lot. Without them, I would have to rummage through these books one by one. This is different from the clues in the search for magic ruins incident. When I was looking for information on replicating metal bodies, Just flip through it quickly to find out whether the book contains any clues about replicating metal bodies.

And now, each of these books contains clues to the Horadric Cube. After finding it, it must be recorded one by one, and then compared and sorted out. It can be said to be a big project. Looking through such a book The workload and time consumed are at least twenty times greater than the workload of searching for the record book of magic ruins events.

The number of these books was more than ten times that of the original magic ruins incident. Without the help of many girls, only Tia was alone in the mage tower rummaging through.

The more I think about it, the more surprised and touched I am by Tia's efforts over the past year or so.

A girl can do this for herself, how can she be rejected by others?

However, although with Tia's help, my workload has been reduced by at least 99%, I still feel a little scared when I look at this 1%.

Brick-thick notebooks formed a tall building in front of me. I estimate there are at least twenty of them.

Fortunately, the owner of these notes, Princess Tia of the Horadric Tribe, is by my side. She has a deep understanding of these notes that she made hand by hand. I can read and listen to her explanation at the same time. Reduce reading and comprehension time.

"Is there any false information about the Horadric Cube?"

I turned to the next page and saw a piece of uncertain information marked in red text, and asked curiously.

"Well, yes, and there are quite a few." Tia nodded and said, her expression became quite troubled and headache. Obviously, these false clues have caused her a lot of trouble. If it weren't for these false information, , her workload can be reduced by at least two-thirds.

"It's really strange, isn't it? The Horadric Cube is obviously your treasure, but there are also fake information." I shook my head, acting like a poor scholar.

"Fanfan, it's not fake, it's untrue." Tia corrected my mistake.

"What's the difference."

"Precisely because the Horadric Cube is a treasure of our family, no one has stopped studying its essence for tens of thousands of years, trying to analyze it thoroughly, dismantle it, and copy it. Some of these mages and scholars have found some useful There are many clues, but many of them went the wrong way and got some wrong information. These information are untrue, but they cannot be said to be false."

"That's it." I nodded suddenly and looked at Tia with admiration.

"You are really good at picking out false information, Tia."

"Hey, hehe, that's not what happened. I just borrowed the power of future generations." Tia didn't dare to take credit and smiled at me sheepishly.

"There are some materials that have been verified by everyone and can basically be confirmed to be the correct research direction. Through these contents, we can deny a lot of untrue things." After a pause, Tia's expression became serious.

"Most of the time, I use this method to eliminate false information. Because of this, I also need to pay attention to some content that is false and does not have correct information to compare and eliminate. I have marked it in these The uncertainty information can only provide partial reference and cannot be fully trusted.”

"Thank you. I didn't expect that our Princess Tia, whom we haven't seen for more than a year, has turned into a rigorous little scholar."

Seeing that the usually lively and cheerful little girl Tia, who was full of energy, also showed a deep academic face that only those university students would have, I couldn't help but ridicule her.

"What do you mean, I have always been a rigorous scholar." The little girl wrinkled her nose at me, brazenly claiming to be a scholar.

"What if, in the future, Dia University scholar just keeps reading and ignores me?" I blinked, showing a worried look.

"No way, Fanfan is the one who knows how to bully others."

She bulged her little mouth at me in dissatisfaction, but then the little girl became happy and hugged my neck and nuzzled me coquettishly.

Isn’t that what this casual remark conveys? Anyway, Tia understood it that way.

"These notes can be used to compile a complete collection of Horadric cube information." I flipped through another book and looked at it carefully, and murmured to myself.

"It's not that simple, idiot Fanfan." The little girl restlessly laughed in my ear.

"Isn't it?"

"Of course it's impossible. In one and a half years, a complete collection of Horadric Cube information can be produced. Fanfan has asked those great scholars who have spent several years, ten years, or even decades to complete a book. Why are you so embarrassed?"

"That's because Tia is smarter than them." I raised my head and felt proud of Tia.

"Although I'm very happy that Fanfan said this, I can't bear to see those scholars' lifelong efforts be belittled by Fanfan." Tia happily kissed me on the face as a reward, and then cast a troubled look. , after thinking about it, she said to me seriously.

"If we want to organize these notes into a complete collection of information on the Horadric Cube that everyone can agree on, we need to at least collect some more clues."

"Isn't that all?" I asked in surprise.

"No." Tia shook her head, glanced at me, as if she was afraid that I would be angry because of this, and then whispered like a child who had done something wrong.

"More than a year, after all, is too little. There are still some books in the central tower that have not been searched. Not to mention there, even some of the books that have been found on the bookshelves have not been completely sorted out."

"Silly girl, it's not your fault. You've done a good enough job, so good that I was moved to tears." I touched Tia's head and comforted her.

Come to think of it, when I came here yesterday and saw Tia for the first time, wasn't she immersed in a book and recording useful information?

"Hey, hey, other than that." Tia, who was very happy when I petted her head, rubbed her head against it like a pet, and continued to talk a little proudly.

"In addition to the incomplete information, these notes also contain too much uncertain information. I just used the simplest method to eliminate some untrue information, so as to turn them into a practical Horadric book. A complete collection of cube information..."

After thinking about it, Tia calculated: "It will take at least dozens of mages to work together and spend at least several decades to eliminate or add more than 95% of the uncertain information. Only when it is confirmed can it be considered a rigorous book and useful information that can be consulted and referenced by future generations.”

"Really? I didn't expect writing a book to be so complicated." I scratched my head and said that I was really not suitable for the path of mage and scholar. It would be more suitable to be a happy and silly druid.

"But then again..." I suddenly thought of a crucial question.

"The Horadric Cube was indeed made by the ancestors of your family."

"Well, of course." Tia took out a notebook and handed it to my hand: "The information recorded in this notebook is about the production and birth of the early Horadric Cube."

"Then why..." I continued to ask while flipping through it.

"Why, since it was made by your ancestors, then all the secrets about the Horadric Cube should have been left behind, including the production method. Why do your descendants continue to study it? Of course, I am not doubting the Horadric Cube. The Ruddik Cube was not made by your family, but I just wonder if, like us humans, it has experienced some changes in the middle period, resulting in the loss of important data?"

"This is indeed an important question. Fanfan got the point right." When mentioning the history of the Horadric clan, Dia's face lost a bit of sunshine and became a bit more calm and wise as a scholar.

"How much does Fanfan know about our clan?"

"Well... to be honest, most of my understanding is still because of Lord Tarasha from a thousand years ago." I thought about it and smiled bitterly.

After all, I have only traveled a little over ten years, and I don’t even have a detailed understanding of the history of mankind for nearly ten thousand years. I only know the names of the Seven Heroes, and I don’t have time to pay attention to the history of the Horadric tribe, and my impressions of the Horadric tribe. Most of them still stay in the understanding of Tarasha.

"Our clan has indeed declined." Seeing my reaction, Tia sighed in disappointment.

"Sorry..." I was so ashamed.

"It has nothing to do with Fanfan. Even if you ask other people, you will get similar answers. If it weren't for Lord Tarasha's activity a thousand years ago, perhaps our Horadric clan's presence would be even lower." Dia shook her head lightly. He showed a look of reminiscence.

"If Fanfan doesn't understand, then let me explain from the most important part. Does Fanfan know why our Horadric clan went from glory to decline?"

"Well..." I have heard about this paragraph before. It seems to be mankind's favorite conspiracy theory. The general meaning is that the Holy See cannot see that the Horadric tribe is growing stronger, so it has taken advantage of it.

"Is it related to the Holy See...?" After thinking about it, in order to prevent Tia from thinking I was illiterate, I carefully said this answer.

"Standard answer, hey." As if she had expected this answer, Tia playfully nudged me on the tip of my nose and laughed crisply.

"Is that true? You little girl, stop trying to tempt me and tell me the truth quickly." I shook my body and showed the power of the head of the family.

"Don't be angry, Fanfan, I'll just say it." Dia straightened her expression and once again showed a faint scholarly aura.

"In fact, we thought so at the beginning. There are two reasons. First, the reputation of the Holy See of mankind was indeed bad at that time. It persecuted many races, the most sensational of which was the elves. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, Weak humans have only come to this point thanks to the support of the elves, and are getting stronger and stronger. However, in the face of the weakness of the elves, the stronger humans... This kind of ungrateful behavior is despised by many races."

Tia glanced at me secretly and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that I didn't show any disgust.

Of course I won't be angry. I have already experienced the virtues of human beings in the original world. Besides, what happened tens of thousands of years ago has nothing to do with me. Even if the Holy See is wronged, I will not frown at all.

"The second reason is that we Horadric people did realize at the time that the Holy See was making small moves behind our backs to try to instigate division. The evidence is conclusive. So as for the reasons for the decline from glory to decline, at the beginning, we did It is an act that is blamed on the human papacy.”

"At the beginning? Could it be that there have been any changes?" I looked at Tia curiously, wondering if the Holy See had indeed been hacked?

"Yeah." Tia nodded heavily.

"Later, after continuous analysis by our scholars, we found that this was not the case. Of course, it does not mean that the Holy See was wronged. Its behavior was indeed one of the main reasons for the decline of our Horadric clan, but this is not the essence. factors."

"Then what's the reason?"

"Because our Horadric clan is too powerful." Dia gave me a baffling answer.

"Because it's too strong, that's why it's declining?"

"Well, because it was strong, it declined."

"Explain it, my IQ is not enough."

"To be precise, it's because the population of our clan is expanding too fast." Smiling brightly at me, Tia put on her pair of gold-rimmed glasses from yesterday, stood up, and paced back and forth in front of the desk, as if The appearance of Teacher Tia.

"Does Fanfan know? There is a law in this world. The more powerful the race, the lower its fertility."

"I know this. For example, if dragons can reproduce like us humans, angels and demons will have to step aside." I nodded.

"Why is this, or why does God do this? Is it just that we are afraid that powerful races will reproduce too much and become too powerful, and do this to balance the power? Our family believes that this is not the essential reason. ." Pushing the frame, Tia looked mature and intellectual.

"The essential reason is that resources are limited. The more powerful they are, the more resources they occupy. However, the resources of a world are limited. If a race is too powerful and there are too many, it will occupy most of the resources, resulting in No other race can survive.”
