"What?! Shelter?!"
Even though Jiang You was knowledgeable and a time traveler, he was still a little confused by the question.
He looked at the human girl in front of him hesitantly and said hesitantly.
"Why do you say that?"
The human girl looked at Jiang You's reaction and answer, and immediately showed disappointment.
The shelter is a high-tech creation built by humans at the end of the pre-era in order to avoid disasters and preserve their bloodline.
Although over the endless years, a large number of shelters collapsed and the humans remaining inside died quietly.
But the girl thought that she also had some human blood, which was why she decided to follow the goblin messenger to the Winged People when she heard about their appearance and characteristics.
Unfortunately, although the Winged King in front of him looked almost the same as humans, he was not of human origin after all!
She shook her head and forced a smile.
"Nothing, respected King of Wings, I was wrong."
She was about to turn around and leave.
In front of her, Jiang You looked at the human girl in front of him, frowned, and then an idea flashed in his mind!
In the previous life's expansion pack, there were indeed sporadic introductions to the previous era of the Ferland continent.
As a hardcore player of Ferland, there should be nothing wrong with him pretending to be a human from the previous era and getting some benefits.
He was still envious of the current great development of the goblins.
So he coughed softly.
"Airship, train, sailing, steam!"
As for the steampunk world, he had played around with it a lot in his previous life!
The girl seemed to be frozen in place.
Every time Jiang You said a word, the human girl's eyes brightened.
When she turned around, she saw Jiang You looking at her gently and said in surprise.
"Do you know what our past was like? Are you really one of my people?"
Jiang You shook his head.
"I am not, or rather, I was once a human being!"
"Also, I didn't come out of the shelter!"
He deliberately blurred the relationship between the human race and humans, and what he said was all true.
But the girl obviously didn't care. She stared at Jiang You, with hope in her beautiful eyes.
"Whether you have human blood or not, my eyes and soul tell me that your soul is 100% human!"
"My dear tribesmen, if the descendants of the human race forget everything in the future, please tell them about the glorious past of the human race. No matter how destitute and humble we are now, we must survive tenaciously and wait for the opportunity to rise again!"
"Also, please protect them during special times!"
Hearing the girl's pessimistic words, a question mark appeared on Jiang You's forehead.
"Are you in such a difficult situation now? As I recall, you hold a very high position among the goblins."
The beautiful girl with long golden hair shook her head bitterly.
"In our shelter, the powerful sequencers have long died, and the remaining people are no match for the extraordinary ones of the goblins!"
"When the goblins broke into our shelter, we had just woken up and didn't have time to use the weapons in the shelter to fight them!"
"But your weapons can deal with powerful Titans, but can't deal with goblins?"
Jiang You was even more confused.
"We can deal with Titans because they have our human blood in their bodies! They are probably evolved from our creations a long time ago!"
"So it's very effective against them. But the goblins are different. They are not weak to us!"
The human girl explained.
"So that's it!"
Jiang You finally understood.
The human girl continued.
"Back to the question just now, it seems that everyone thinks that we have a high status among the goblins, but this is actually an illusion!"
"Goblins are an extremely selfish race. They admire our civilization, yearn for our past, learn our knowledge, and take over our weapons, but they are afraid of our potential!"
"They control us!"
A sneer appeared on the human girl's face.
"There are hundreds of people who have awakened in our shelter, and many children have been born over the past few years."
"The goblins learn our knowledge, but they don't allow us to educate our own children."
"The Goblin King Amiguel asked us to make a choice: to become an ordinary race of Ferland and survive and reproduce on the continent, or to be bound to the Goblin clan forever!"
"Binding means generations of slavery. How could we possibly agree to that?"
"So I chose the former!"
Jiang You nodded in understanding and sighed.
"It is conceivable that if this continues, many years later, the human race will become an ordinary weak race on the Ferland continent, and may even be in danger of extinction at any time.
"That's true, but we humans would rather start all over again than be slaves!"
The girl smiled firmly.
Then, she looked at Jiang You and entrusted him solemnly.
"In the future, if the human race is in trouble, please lend a helping hand. Please!"
"I will!"
Jiang You nodded.
"Then, can you tell me your human name?"
"Jiang You!"
Hearing these two words, a relieved smile finally appeared on the human girl's face.
"So you are from the Oriental ethnicity! My name is Christina!"
The next morning.
The goblin envoys said goodbye to Jiang You and others and returned to the goblin royal court.
Jiang You stood on the top of the mountain and watched them go away.
He looked at the human girl's back, shook his head and sighed.
"In my previous life, when I was playing games, I often heard a lot of news about prehistoric relics in the game. Historians from various tribes in Philande speculated that Philande's last era was the era of steampunk."
"However, they don't know that at that time, the human race was the master of the continent!"
"Come to think of it, if the system hadn't been unable to open, would I have triggered a legendary quest by now?"
