Chapter 898 - Vol V Chapter 258



Sui Xiong was aware of many Chinese sayings about such a notion.

He fell silent and did not speak, sweeping glances across all the gods.

The gods were all silent as well.

The conflict between the humans and the Orcs had started all the way from when the two races had first emerged. Originally, the Goddess of Life had created the Golden Race. This was an extremely strong race that had been dubbed “high-ranking followers.” With the Golden Race’s help, she swept the skies and defeated all the great gods of her time. With that, the Goddess of Life managed to become next in line after the top four gods.

Of course, the other great gods were not about to sit around and do nothing. They copied what the Goddess of Life had previously done but instead creating races that belonged to them as tools for war.

Amongst these created races, “Ancestor,” better known as the Ancestral Beast God, had created the Orcs while the “Mother of Sea” had created the humans. These two gods had the worst relationship among all the gods, and they often fought mercilessly and fiercely. With the creation of two separate races, they used their respective races mostly to fight each other, although the original intention of creating races was to challenge the Goddess of Life.

Although the situations and relationships among the gods evolved over time and both creators had already fallen, the hatred and tension between the two races could not possibly be dissolved so easily. Even if people such as the Orc God System’s “Sky Devourer Canine” Lefon wanted to reduce this prejudice, the best method he could think of still did not achieve ultimate peace as he had wanted to change all humans into Half-Orcs.

As for the human side, even if they eventually slipped out of the control of the “Mother of Sea” and even underwent anti-phasing by killing the “Mother of Sea,” this did not change their enmity towards the Orcs.

More importantly, all long, the leader of the Human Gods, be it the God of Knights or the God of Light, all continuously kept up war efforts against the Orcs on the frontline. The base idea was that the humans innately hated the Orcs to the core.

This hatred between the two races was really severe. It got to a point where all the Orc gods who had fallen had all done so in battle with the Human God System. For the God of Knight, one of the previous leaders of the Human God System had also fallen while battling the various Orc Gods.

With so many gods’ deaths due to this conflict, how could there possibly be peace between the two races?

Sui Xiong thought for a long time and was still unable to come up with a solution that would generate true peace between the two races.

Actually... It was not that it was impossible. For example, Sui Xiong had read in a random webcomic before that there once was a strongman who loved humans and did not want the various countries on Earth to fight. He thus made himself a big great devil, and this forced all the countries to unite against this new common enemy, reducing their own personal, smaller tensions.

While this solution seemed useful, it was rather foolish as well.

Sui Xiong definitely did not want to learn from that foolish big devil and act solely based on theory and daft aspirations. He definitely would not convert himself just to generate peace.

The so-called confrontation of the Great Devil was nothing more than the use of external contradictions to transfer internal contradictions. This did not mean that internal contradictions would not exist. In fact, they existed and were likely to develop more intensely and cruelly.

With the help of his lofty art history teacher’s ramblings, Sui Xiong had gotten a basic understanding of some different stages of history on Earth. In the recent history of China, there had been an intense external contradiction that had temporarily superseded internal contradictions, and the opposing parties had worked together to settle the bigger issue at hand. However, one had to understand that such a temporary alliance was extremely fragile. Although both sides worked together in the short term and used this new strength to help defeat the bigger enemy, once the bigger enemy was defeated, they would dissolve the alliance soon after. Internal wars would resume, and this conflict would even escalate! This was because both sides had developed themselves while working together to defeat a bigger enemy and had accumulated greater power and resources in the process to fight each other.

Originally, the webcomic that Sui Xiong had seen was incomplete and did not have a proper conclusion. Most webcomics were like this: authors would write leisurely and choose not to complete the story if they were unable to think up of a good enough idea to end the story. There were few authors who managed to be disciplined enough to finish a story well. However, according to this particular webcomic’s author, he had mentioned that the foolish man who had converted himself would definitely not have a happy ending. Once he was defeated, the humans would definitely go back to their original conflicts.

Furthermore, as the humans had invented many new tools and tricks while fighting the war against the great devil, afterwards when they resumed their internal wars, these wars would become crueler, more intense and more merciless.

Basically, the great devil’s method would backfire despite his good intentions.

Sui Xiong did not wish to become a great devil anyway as he did not think he was great or strong enough to force the humans and Orcs to work together. One could explain it as even if he wanted to be a great devil, he was under-qualified.

He thus quickly scrapped this idea.

Another method he considered was of course increasing interactions, which would promote intermarriage and the fusing of the two races. However, there was a biological problem here. The Orcs’ blood was definitely stronger when compared to humans’. If Orcs and humans were to get married and have children, the offspring would definitely be Half-Orc and not human. If Half-Orcs and humans had children, a similar case of Half-Orc offspring would still occur.

According to the research by zealous and passionate scholars, if Sui Xiong were to use interracial reproduction as a method to “dissolve” the human race or meld them into the Orc race, it would require at least 10 generations or more for visible results. It would only be after the 15th of 16th generations that the pure Orc gene would disappear.

One could say that if Sui Xiong promoted interracial reproduction, it would give the Orcs a great advantage and wipe out the human race, which was a rather skewed idea.

This was something that the humans would definitely be disagreeable towards.

This solution was thus scrapped as well.

Sui Xiong was not some genius who could come up with ideas on the spot. He was also not very far-sighted. Even though he considered the issue from different angles, he could only think of these two ideas. Since both ideas were not effective or had severe repercussions, naturally, there was only one other way he could solve things.

This was to separate the two races such that they would never interact again in the future.

This could be done realistically as this world was very big and could accommodate both races. As long as they were not adamant about staying on this piece of land known as the Main Plane and were willing to travel out in among the thousands of other possible habitable lands, this world could accommodate hundreds and thousands of opposing races, let alone just the two races of humans and Orcs.

At the end of the day, there was just one last question left to ask. Who should stay and who should leave?

Naturally, then, the conversation went back to the original topic of the impending war between the humans and Orcs.

Sui Xiong was silent for a long time before suggesting quietly, “Perhaps we could use a war of gods to settle this matter?”

“If each side’s gods were to face death in battle, the humans and Orcs would definitely take action,” Javier smiled and turned to look at the God of War Wenner. “Wenner, do you think this method is feasible?”

Wenner shook his head. “This is not feasible. If even the gods become invested in this war, the people themselves would be more likely to engage in war themselves. If not, how could they account for their faith? How could they live with themselves?”

“Auscar, I can understand that you want to protect the people. However, you cannot simply act on this empathy alone,” Wenner walked over to Sui Xiong’s side and spoke in a low voice. “You’re imagining a war of gods while the people sit by and watch? That would be humiliating for them!”
