Chapter 290: Prologue to the Times
"Mentor, why do the Star Knight still want to learn diplomatic etiquette and communication? Do you want us to become diplomats?"
"There are things, maybe you can't use them for a lifetime after studying hard and taking the exam, but if you really want to use it one day, it won't save your life........ don't ask so much now, anyway, you won't pay attention to what we say, as long as you know that if you can't get these two credits, you will have to make up classes in school during the summer vacation." ”
Thinking of the wailing in the classroom at that time, as well as the disapproving attitude of the classmates....... and even because the teacher did not pay much attention to these "literary lessons", which led to the cheating of the exams in the partial courses, Rorschach wanted to laugh a little.
But thinking of the current situation, I couldn't laugh anymore, and in the end I could only shake my head silently, there are some things that I really only understand when I encounter them.
If you really go into the society, you will find that the courses and knowledge you used to be treasured may not be used for a lifetime, but those unpopular courses and partial knowledge that you don't remember when to memorize are really playing a role.
This is not accidental, but the designer and arranger of the education curriculum, who has a vision far beyond you, and a perfect and systematic education mechanism may not allow you to become a genius and elite, but at least it can keep you from serious shortcomings at critical moments.
The Star Knights education that Rorschach received actually far exceeded what Ash needed to live and work, it was the Ash Knights who returned from the universe, and the training courses they summarized with their own experience and lessons were the knowledge and systematic accumulation that they felt and their juniors needed most.
"Article 12 of the Code of the ....... Star Knights, in the face of unknown races and individuals, it is necessary to maintain a cautious observation and equal attitude, to be humble but not blindly obedient to the strong, to be equal and friendly to the weak, and how to judge that it is an individual who can communicate and not a mortal enemy who must fight and a prey that is allowed to hunt, can refer to Article 22 of the Watchful Covenant 'Definition of Thirteenth Level Intelligent Beings'........"
What seems to be the teachings of Our Lady of Dogma and Morals is in fact a practical guideline of blood and sweat experience.
Equal and friendly to people who seem weak because you don't know if they are really weak or just seem weak.
Strange lives and existences abound in the stars, wandering in the larger world for a long time, only what you can't think of, and nothing you can't see.
It's not just one person who eats the will incarnation sent by planetary life as a culinary staple, and then serves it to another table.
Or maybe it's the painstaking slaughter of the mountain-like monster only to find out that it's just a hatchling cub, and his angry parents are watching you.
Following the Watcher's Covenant, guarding and helping each other is based on equal communication, both to protect others and to protect yourself, of course, there is no point in being equal to the beasts, predators are always the majority of the food chain.
In the Watchful Covenant, intelligent beings are classified, and only intelligent beings above level 13 have the so-called "human rights", that is, the right to communicate equally.
It seems harsh, but in fact the conditions are very relaxed, probably just equivalent to having a written and digital inheritance, being able to be aware of the existence of self and the race, and the possibility of communication.
If a technological civilization and a magical civilization can leave its own planet and world, it must be on top of it.
Of course, this is not absolute, after all, there are always those who can cross the universe in the flesh, but always stay on their own planet
Addicted to a race that fights each other in various ways.
Ahem, it's far away, but for the Eshims, who have entered the interstellar age, the Titans' hospitality is not only infuriating, but even lowers the Ash's evaluation of these "blood brothers".
What kind of trial to play at every turn, the exit is a test of the qualifications and abilities of the other side....... isn't this already regarded as a high position.
This is the practice of overwhelming people from the beginning and opening up the psychological distance, reminiscent of the beasts of the jungle.
At least, Rorschach looked down on these big guys a few points, maybe they had the combat power of the Lord Ash god-level, but they definitely didn't have the wisdom and vision of this supreme existence.
And the acquisition of new information also seems to have brought these individuals with huge power from one side, in a sense, they are a group of new-age turtles who have never seen the world, are obsessed with fighting each other, and are proud of being the king and hegemon in the village.
"Elder Grey Silver chose to throw himself into the evil god, just because the evil god Cheng Ruo took him and his people out of this world and into a wider world?"
At this moment, Rorschach even admired the enemy standing on the opposite side, at least, the Gray Silver Elder's attempt to leave this "prison" did not seem to Rorschach to blame.
As the exchange deepened, more information flowed into the hands of Rorschach, the interim intelligence director.
Like most races, the Titans have differences of opinion, but it is their differences that appear on the basis of the existence of the entire race.
In the eyes of most Titans, they are the eldest sons of the Mother Goddess, guardians of the laws of nature, and guardians of Isoreen.
But obviously, this world, which is dark for most of the time and time, is not much of a paradise, but more like an unfinished half-finished product.
Some people are dissatisfied with the status quo, she thinks that the world can be changed for the better, and she feels that she should get rid of her mother's vocation and seek change....... which is probably the radical and reformist that exists in every group.
Yes, she, she is Frey, the master of the flames.
And like most of the older groups, the reformers have always been a minority, and even more so the hostile of the majority of the elderly, and for a long time, she has been hostile to the other three masters, which is equivalent to becoming the public enemy of all Titans except the Fire Titans.
The reason for the outbreak of the civil war is not this is no longer reliable, but the outcome of the civil war is always that there is no winner to speak of.
I'm afraid someone has already noticed that at this time, the gray silver elder who dominates the land is still on the conservative side.
The process is no longer testable, and the withering of the Titans is the result in front of them, but the entry of outsiders more than a hundred years ago has brought new changes to the situation.
A second civil war broke out, this time much smaller, but there was still no winner.
In the process, the originally staunch conservative core Gray Silver Elder suddenly jumped back, he not only got together with the evil god, but even planned to completely open the door of the plane, just like Ash next door........ but Ansolein, but there is no Ash Chaos Goddess and the Goddess of Order to create the plane wall, which is equivalent to opening the world to all evil gods.
With the information in their hands, the Elder Grey Silver had undoubtedly become the mortal enemy of all the Ash, and the consequences of his goal were simply unacceptable to the Ash.
And looking at this information that was destined to shock the world, all the witnesses remembered a historical event at the same time.
"....... Dawn War, Hundred Years' War?"
