Summoning Total War
Vol 3 Chapter 15: Poppy (Part 1)
At night, the generals and guards brought dinner for Murphy.
Since it is in the barracks, the food is naturally not as exquisite as that in the Palace of the Governor of Athens. In a food box there is only a loaf of bread, a pile of dried fish, a bowl of thick broth, and some vegetables. Although it is not rich, the broth is rich in aroma. Murphy tasted it and it was really good, with a special flavor, which seemed to be in the seasoning.
"What's in it?" Murphy put down the spoon and asked, pointing to the broth.
The general's guard shook his head and said, "I don't know. Governor-general, I will ask the chef."
"Go." Murphy nodded.
Soon, the general guard servant returned. At the same time, he also brought back some green-brown powder in his hand. He placed this small packet of green-brown powder in front of Murphy and said: "Your Excellency, this is what the army found on the old site of the elves. It seems to be They were planted. Then they asked someone to find out that it was the seasoning used by the high elves. Very expensive and rare!"
"The priests of the temple have verified that this kind of thing is not poisonous and can be used to treat some ailments." At this point, the generals guards also took out a few seed-like things and carefully placed them on the table.
"What is this?!" Murphy picked up the powder and smelled it, and immediately felt that the fragrance was very special.
Then, he picked up those seed-like things and observed them carefully. After watching for a long time, he suddenly felt a very special sprouting feeling, as if this thing evoked some special memories! But no matter how hard he tried to think about it, he couldn't remember what this thing was. As a result, Murphy began to tentatively awaken the "Total War" auxiliary system in his mind.
"Scan the object in front of you." Murphy gave the command tentatively.
For a long time, the assistance provided by the "Total War" auxiliary system is mostly passive, but after the "Total War-Kingdom" system is activated, the Total War auxiliary system seems to have a lot more active capabilities, although Murphy There is no way to determine it, but there is an ability that seems to be useful. That is the auxiliary system database scan, this ability has been activated several times by itself.
The order is issued!
Murphy suddenly felt a splitting headache, as if a needle had been inserted into his brain and his brain was being extracted!
He was in a daze, as if he had reached a stream of memories. From his birth to the present, all his memories quickly surfaced like a slide, and then fell silent.
"Memory data is being extracted, imported into the auxiliary system database, memory scanning system is active!"
"Activation progress... 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%... Activation completed! The memory scanning system is turned on, the automatic memory mode is activated, the digital memory bank is passively generated, and the "Total War" auxiliary system is assimilated into memory template!……"
A series of auxiliary system prompts sounded, but Murphy, who was in pain now, couldn't pay attention to it, or even hear it.
Because his whole brain seemed to be buzzing, his two ears couldn't hear outside sounds at all!
Finally, the pain eased.
"Your Excellency! What's wrong with you?"
Murphy was already sweating profusely when he opened his eyes. He was so wet and uncomfortable. He looked at the generals and guards who were shocked by his painful appearance in front of him, and said hoarsely: "You go down first. Without my order. No one can come in."
The guards hesitated for a moment, and finally took their orders.
The door was closed, only Murphy was left in the room.
Take a long breath.
He gently rubbed the painful temples with his hands, as if muttering: "Is it a memory extraction? It actually made me recall those things."
The human brain is very mysterious.
In fact, everyone never forgets, because the human brain can hold too many things. It's just that most of those things are buried deep in memory by the gods of time, some can be recalled, and some are completely forgotten. But being forgotten doesn't mean that they don't exist. They still exist and are imprinted in a certain place in the brain.
To use a more popular metaphor, then the human brain is an unimaginable U disk, and memory is the stored data. Because the U disk is too big and the data stored is too much, people often forget the things that are stored in a certain corner. On the contrary, because there are not many things in the brain, children have better memory. But being forgotten does not mean that it does not exist. It still exists in people's brains, but it is no longer remembered by people.
What the "Total War" auxiliary system has just done is to extract all Murphy's memories into the database.
The auxiliary system depends on him and exists. It cannot give birth to knowledge for no reason. This knowledge must come from Murphy, or from Athens, or even from the gods of Olympus. It is just a tool, not a tool. It can create knowledge for no reason, so it must extract that knowledge before it can form its own database.
"Poppy seed, a variant of the poppy family, has the same medicinal properties."
About what Murphy had accidentally read in the university, the knowledge that was not memorized by him told him the answer. On the page of the "Total War" auxiliary system, a line of small characters tells Murphy the answer very simply and clearly.
Poppies!
The elves planted poppies!
Murphy stared at the powder in front of him in disbelief, whispering something in his mouth.
This will actually be the fruit of poppies. The elves planted poppies, and it was passed down by the high elves. This answer really surprised Murphy!
Because he really didn't expect it to be such a thing.
In such an era, poppies naturally cannot be equal to ‘opium’ and ‘drugs’, but even without any purification, the medicinal properties of poppies still exist. In ancient Egypt, poppies were called "sacred flowers". In order to express their praise for the poppy, the ancient Greeks asked the goddess Sigu, who was in charge of agriculture, to hold a poppy in her hand. The story of poppies is also circulated in ancient Greek mythology. There is a devil **** named Hypnos who rules over death. His son Mafes holds poppy in his hand and guards his sleeping father so as not to be awakened.
Poppies were discovered by chance when people in the Neolithic Age traveled among the mountains on the east coast of the Mediterranean. More than 5,000 years ago, the Sumerians called it a "happy plant" religiously, and thought it was a gift from gods. The ancient Egyptians also used it as an elixir to treat infant night crying. In the third century BC, detailed descriptions of opium appeared in ancient Greek and Roman books.
The great poet Homer called it "Negrinograss" and Virgil called it "hypnotics".
The flowers of poppies are very beautiful. Taobao women's clothing Tmall Taobao mall Taobao women's winter jacket m. At that time, many slave owners planted poppies in their manor, but only to believe in its beauty. Net women's winter jacket m.
...
Murphy really didn't expect that poppies in this world would be created so early when they were discovered, and they have been cultivated by elves as a custom. This plant actually originated from high elves, Murphy really can't imagine how long those elves planted poppies to create gods. What a long and terrible drug addiction does their race have?
"It's no wonder that although the elves are powerful, they rarely invade outside. Originally, this was not their nature, but because these elves have been taking drugs!"
Perhaps the nature of the elves was still the same as other races.
But in the long history of ethnic drug abuse, their nature has also become what it is now. What can stimulate art better than mild hallucinations? What is more satisfying than taking drugs?
Although it is still not up to the level of drugs, in the long process of using poppies, the spirit of the entire Elf race has been eroded by poppies.
This erosion even triggered a change in the entire race, a positive, beautiful, and balanced change!
Because under the action of poppies, the elves that are peaceful, kind, kind, indifferent to the world, maintain natural balance, but rarely invade others, and have enlightened the entire world several times!
The slight hallucinations and the satisfaction brought about by drug use made the powerful elves have no ambitions for external aggression, and also made them feel comfortable with the status quo, and gave birth to this kind of task of maintaining the balance of the world. Civilized way.
Murphy couldn't imagine whether this was a secret arrangement, but there is no doubt that if there were no poppies, the whole world would have been ruled by the elves. Because under the talented archery skills of high elves, mixed blood elves, and a large number of half-elves, almost no race has any hope of victory. Because they are so powerful, they are born silver species, and they are stronger than other races from the beginning of their birth.
Too much too much……
Murphy thought of too many things at once.
------------------------
"Anyway, they have a long life, just this level of drug use, I am afraid it can't hurt them at all." Murphy laughed a little self-deprecatingly~www.readwn.com~Broken wind!
Suddenly, Murphy's complexion was whole, and her expression became grim.
Since practicing arcane arts, his perception of the outside world has become stronger and stronger, even if he has not entered meditation, he can still feel the changes around him to a certain extent. This seems to be a talent, activated after opening the gate of arcane.
Then Murphy's expression eased.
Because he felt that the atmosphere of the arrival was not unfamiliar, because she had appeared in front of him.
"The fruit of the **** flower!?"
The first thing Queen Evanna saw was not Murphy, but the few poppy seeds in his hand. In her eyes, Murphy saw a desire, a desire he had never seen before, as if it came from the depths of the soul.
He suddenly had a shock.
Because he unexpectedly thought that their drug addiction might have penetrated into their souls!
