Chapter 429 Sociology Points +1

The blue man's language has a lot of "ho-ho" sounds, as if imitating the sound of the wind.

The two were stunned for a while. An elder appeared out of nowhere. He was so old that he slumped on a floating chair, pulled by two juniors riding flying beasts.

When he got closer, the elder spoke with a strange accent and unskilled common language:

"Two. Master mages of Paradise, are you here to mediate the dispute? Or seek help?"

The elder may be the only one in the entire tribe who can communicate in common language. He claimed that when he was young, there was also a spellcaster who came to the air elemental plane for adventure. He was chosen to be a guide and servant. Until the spellcaster's long exploration was over, he also gained a lot of knowledge and learned the language of "Paradise".

Rorschach communicated with the elder and learned that the exhaust gas emitted by the factory was reused in the air elemental plane.

He and Caroline looked over. In addition to the battlefield in front of them, there seemed to be a village behind them.

These aborigines, like the Tanka people in Rorschach's previous life, use boats as their homes and float on the sea for generations. The residences of these little people are also built on the basis of rafts and airships, and they live on them for generations.

The air sacs are mainly the extremely light skin sacs of elemental organisms, which can actively filter heavy components and absorb gases with small molecular weight, thus naturally gaining buoyancy.

In addition to elemental organisms, these little people and some flying beasts are also carbon-based life forms, and the basis of the food chain is the mesh-like hyphae.

These hyphae absorb carbon dioxide and water in the atmosphere and undergo photosynthesis. For the aborigines, hyphae are their food.

"We will chase the green gas with Kabayo, wait for them to mature, and feed the tribesmen and livestock."

"Kabayo" is a mesh-like hyphae that floats in the air after opening. These fungal nets do not grow mushrooms when they mature, but hollow bubbles. After capturing the gas, the heavy gas that can be used is absorbed, and the light gas that cannot be used will be enriched and stored in the vesicles, providing buoyancy for the gradually developed and heavy fungal blanket.

The "green gas" mentioned by the elders is not chlorine, but carbon dioxide-rich gas. After communicating, Luo Xia guessed that it was because of the specialization of the visual organs of these races that they could recognize the colorless gas in the eyes of humans.

Originally, in the environment of the air element plane, there was an ocean current-like existence. The nitrogen- and carbon-rich air masses needed for life would constantly change their positions, so these natives had to chase the air masses and cultivate edible fungi.

In other words, they were obviously farming, but their form was close to herding.

Until Luo Xia's "sewage outlet" was discovered some time ago, sulfur- and nitrogen-containing gases, as well as the most important carbon dioxide, were continuously discharged from the other end of the portal, allowing the clan to settle for the first time.

Luo Xia and Caroline could see that there were "gas wells" surrounded by animal skins above and below those "sewage outlets". The gases would rise or fall due to their different molecular weights, forming a simple separation, and what "Kabayo" needed was at the bottom of the gas well, growing vigorously into a floating fungal blanket. The mature fungi were golden yellow, like wheat fields rising and falling one after another.

There are only misplaced resources, no useless waste. Rorschach did not expect that greenhouse gases and toxic and harmful gases emitted to the air elemental plane could be regarded as treasures.

As this nomadic population settled down, their primitive society also developed. Not only did the population grow steadily, but the social structure gradually became more complex.

Then the clan began to have conflicts. Originally, the tribesmen shared limited resources with each other. Now the concept of property appeared. The clan, with two families as the core, began to compete for "gas wells" and livestock.

So the clan ushered in a "grand" civil war, and the performance was very "tragic" just like what Rorschach and Caroline saw when they first arrived.

According to the time of the main material plane, a "gas well" was destroyed last night, and a "war horse" accidentally broke into the portal, which led to the factory accident.

You guys can do it. Rorschach did not have the idea of ​​not interfering in internal affairs. He really did not want to care about the infighting of this primitive tribe, but he had to ensure the normal progress of pollution emissions.

So Rorschach promised the elders to stop fighting, because fighting like this would not kill people. As long as the portal is well maintained, there will be exhaust gas. Precious gas will only increase.

So the elder was so happy that he burst into tears. He called for a ceasefire to the two "big" families and conveyed the will of the master wizard.

The soldiers who were still bleeding were stunned, looked at each other, and concluded: Who are you? The noisy voices gradually rose, and they seemed to be unable to help but continue to fight.

Rorschach frowned when he saw the trend of the war rekindling. After coming to the gaseous plane in person, he found that this thin and chaotic field had a relatively complete ecological chain, which could accommodate the activities of some intelligent creatures. It would be good if there was such a being on the other side to take care of the exhaust port for him. For example, if these tribes were maintained, there would be no wild animals or elemental creatures rushing into this side.

Since he and a fallen elder could not control the situation alone, could he only deal with one party in the dispute? Rorschach began to seriously consider this issue. The elder's uncertain expression made his soul tremble. The boys present had no idea how terrible the creature called the wizard was.

"Should we stop them? Actually, I can set up a barrier to repel the creatures near the portal, but I have to come here frequently to maintain it." Caroline tried to give a more gentle solution.

"I think it's interesting to cooperate with the natives." Rorschach began to prepare spells. He planned to stop the war with war, and then appoint a "king" to manage the tribe.

Suddenly, something unusual happened in the lower plane. Several screaming beasts rushed out from the thick clouds. They were not big, about the size of a little gray-blue human, with a triangular sharp head, and they flapped their wings desperately.

These pterosaur-like creatures tried their best to fly upwards, and the piercing cries instantly filled the entire sky. Even if they flew from the lower layer where they lived to the shallow layer, the change in atmospheric density made flying difficult, but these flying beasts still struggled hard.

The pterosaurs drove across the battlefield like cannonballs, and some of them were so panicked that they didn't have time to turn and collided with the members of the tribe.

The elder's face changed completely. He was panicked and shouted at the loudest volume that an old man could shout: "Tuntun! Tuntun is coming!" After reminding the members of the tribe, he said to the mages: "Adults, leave here quickly! Tuntun is coming!"

What is "Tuntun"? The elders used their own language here. Rorschach guessed that it was either a creature or some extreme phenomenon. Caroline looked down and saw the colorful clouds under her feet began to fluctuate violently: "Is the storm coming?"

The elder had already asked the younger generation to pull the cart to escape, and he gave a final piece of advice: "Tuntun. It will swallow everything!"

The pterosaurs were still fleeing frantically, and more individuals rushed up from the bottom. Rorschach quickly understood why the pterosaurs did not forget to walk around but flew wildly into the sky - the outline of a huge mouth appeared under the fluctuation of the clouds, which was a few thousand meters away from them, and the vision could only barely see the "mouth" of the creature.

Tuntun, it seemed that the huge mouth that could swallow a city was approaching Rorschach and Caroline at a rapid speed.

Why are you running? Can you run away? Rorschach looked at the fleeing natives struggling in vain.
