Ride and Cut

Generally speaking, the more greedy you are for perfection, the more lax you will be. After all, there are not so many geniuses in this world.

It is better to cut off one finger than to injure his ten fingers.

Generalist units, although they sound beautiful, their actual combat effectiveness is generally not very good. Being able to shoot from a distance and fight in close quarters often means that a long-range shooter can't shoot a full-time archer, and a melee fighter can't beat a silver-armored halberd soldier. The positioning is very embarrassing.

But this problem does not exist in Tiger Spirits. They inherit the advantages of elves and powerful half-orcs at the same time.

Human archers generally pay great attention to volley shooting. In Li Cha's view, it is a means to make up for the lack of individual accuracy. But the tiger spirits don't need it at all - the lord has inspected their shooting skills, and if measured by the standard of Pompeii's regular army, almost all of them are up to the standard of a good archer, and there is no need to rely on volleys to make up for their accuracy.

It only needs a little coordination to avoid too many people aiming at the same target to waste firepower, and simple free shooting can exert amazing lethality.

And when they gave up their bows and held their swords, relying on their naturally flexible and strong bodies, even if their martial skills were not outstanding, they would be able to beat ordinary swordsmen as easily as drinking water.

It is actually a bit wasteful to use such hunters directly as archers. They are more suitable for small-scale encounters as scouts. But after all, Gaoshanbao doesn't need thousands of scouts right now.

For any military chief, having such subordinates means a kind of happy trouble, and the lord is currently bearing this kind of trouble. It is not easy to maximize their abilities.

"Chief Saitos, are you interested in going back to the world on the other side?" Richard sent a sincere invitation to the Iron Giant before leaving.

"Thank you for your kindness." The big bald spoon looked at the other shore channel with unconcealable longing in his eyes, after all, it was his hometown he had been away for 10,000 years. But in the end he shook his head, "But I'm afraid not."

"Why?" Li Cha could see that it wasn't that he didn't want to go, but that he couldn't go, and he immediately became interested.

"Because the higher-level magical creature is, the easier it is to cause disturbance to the passage itself and cause accidents when passing through the passage on the other side. When we came here back then, we had to use the magic power of the Titan himself to stabilize it so that we could barely pass through." Chief Saitos said while winking at Qiqiu on Richard's shoulder.

The latter was so engrossed in wrestling with the hazelnut shell that he had no time to pay attention to the strange man.

Although they are all Titans, if they expect the little nigga Qiqiu to have the same power as the Titans back then, it is better to quickly find a pillow and doze off, and dream about everything.

"There is no such condition now, and it is courting death for us to go there rashly." Chief Saitos smiled wryly and shook his head, "It is said that the older you are, the less courageous you are. I have a deep understanding. It is so wonderful to live, and to sink into silence forever... Tsk, it's scary to think about it."

"That's not necessarily true. We humans now have several magisters. Maybe I'll bring one in one day." Although Li Cha had never even met a magister, it didn't prevent him from speaking big words in front of the Iron Giant. Anyway, the other party must have never seen one.

"A magister can be born among you humans?" The big bald lady was obviously taken aback, slapping her hands and shouting that it is not easy, "Adult Titans are almost at this level, and they are even worse after being evil. It is a remarkable achievement! You must know that at that time, let alone you humans, even among the elves most loved by Titans, no noble magister was born."

"The times are developing, and mankind is progressing. It would be strange if they kept standing still." Li Cha was very disdainful of these old-fashioned people's minds full of old ideas.

It is true that the Iron Giant is still the same as it was 10,000 years ago, but human beings are still the same as they were 10,000 years ago. Times have changed a long time ago, but unfortunately these giants haven't had the chance to experience it.

"But do titans like elves?"

"Of course, elves are good-looking, kind-hearted, and talented in magic. Who doesn't like them?" Chief Saitos sneered.

"Do you know why the elves can establish a country so quickly after the end of the Titan era? Because the Titans have already arranged for them to temporarily maintain the order of the world on the other side and wait for their return." The big bald gourd said mysteriously.

"So what, in the end, humans will take all." The lord was happy, patted his thigh and laughed wildly, "I always believe that flexible thinking, inexhaustible ambition, sufficient brains and strong fertility are the true racial characteristics that can stand the test."

"Don't be so complacent, Li Cha, please be patient and continue to listen to me." Chief Saitos's jaw tightened, and his face suddenly became serious.

"The rise of human beings is of course the result of continuous hard work. But I am afraid that even you have to admit that there is another important reason that your own characteristics just follow the drastic changes in the elemental tide, and you have benefited from the environment. In other words, fortune is on your side."

"That's true." Li Cha couldn't deny it.

For any intelligent race, the ups and downs of the elemental tide are the irreversible destiny. And the reason why human beings can drive low and go high, from an inconspicuous unknown in ancient times to the absolute overlord who controls the continent today, it is really impossible to insist that it has nothing to do with the tide of elements.

"Then, is it fate's favor that plays a key role in the rise of mankind, or the various good qualities you just mentioned?" Chief Saitos said meaningfully: "When good luck comes, any race or individual will naturally attribute all success to themselves, but is this really the case?"

"If... I mean, if, one day, the elemental tides abandoned humans like Titans, would you still be able to laugh? Can you still be as confident as you are now?"

Now it was the turn of the Alpine Castle lord to be speechless, the answer he vaguely felt was not so easy to say.

…………

Thousands of people gradually gathered by the lake from scratch, and started to light fires and set up tents in order to resist the cold.

It involves the relocation of an entire tribe, and the speed is not fast enough. In addition, there is still a short distance from the headquarters of the Alpine Fort, so Li Cha was too lazy to continue spending time with them, so he simply let Qiqiu transform into his back and fly back to the Alpine Fort first.
