Chapter 33: Don't Let Fools Become Politicians
"Does the so-called brave really not exist?Father!" Fei Wenli had tears in her eyes, "When I was a child, I liked to hear you tell me the stories of knights, they are righteous, great, and dare to challenge the powerful and evil! They slay dragons, they hunt demons, they protect the weak, they defend the truth!"
"They...... Does it really not exist in reality?"
Vivien Leigh's almost pleading question made Lawrence's eyes waver. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Lawrence didn't know how to answer.
As a father, he would rather let his children be innocent and happy forever, but it is precisely as a father that he has to make his children understand the cruelty of reality!
He shivered and drank the ale, the brownish liquid trembling on his bushy beard.
He looked at Vivien Leigh and said in a low voice with a trill, "I'm sorry, kids, but in reality, ......"
"I've seen a lot of fools. At this moment, Sylvia suddenly and coldly interrupted Lawrence's words that were about to blurt out, "They are all stupid, and they are bruised and swollen and bleeding in this world for the ideas and beliefs in their hearts. ”
It was probably the most Sylvia Charlotte had ever heard, and she put the tea to her lips and looked at Lawrence through the gentle mist.
"Some of them have learned wisely and seem to be doing better than before, while others have died unrepentantly and have died in the end, covered up by history. There was no emotion in her icy eyes, as if she were stating a simple truth, "but there are a few of them who have turned their flesh into slamming wood, constantly pounding the walls of reality and breaking them with determination." ”
She set the cup on the table, "Their names are Rusten, their names are Elenie, their names are Eagle, their names are Emanuel, their names are Gerald, their names are Zoe, their names are Edwin. ”
"Lawrence, I'm not rooting them (Charlotte and Vivien Leigh) to be inflexible fools, but fools are not like fools. She explained with unprecedented patience, "Fools always have their own persistence, and they have only one goal or belief in their eyes. Therefore, for the fool, it is either attainment or death. ”
She concluded, "So you can make fools smarter, but don't let your thinking affect fools." ”
"Don't let fools become politicians. ”
After saying the last sentence, Sylvia stood up and walked out of the room with Dinah in Vivien Leigh's wistful eyes.
Lawrence laughed self-deprecatingly and shook his head, "Your Highness's way of educating is really different, maybe she's right, but I still feel that you have to grow." ”
He stood up and patted Charlotte on the shoulder, "Especially you, Charlotte, as a brother and future Grand Duke of Icewind Castle, I still say the same thing, it's time to say goodbye to the dragon slayer warriors of Sava Castle!"
"Remember my words, sometimes reality is difficult, it will make you have to face the cruel conflict of conscience, faith and reality, it is difficult for anyone at that time, but you have to face it, because not choosing when you have to make a choice is the biggest choice mistake!"
“…… I'll remember what you say, Father!" Charlotte nodded heavily.
Lawrence smiled abruptly, and he turned to Rebecca and said, "Let's go, my beautiful lady, and give the children some time to think!"
Mrs. Rebecca smiled and took Lawrence's hand, blinking back before leaving the door.
"I don't know who is right and who is wrong between Her Highness Sylvia and your father, but I think it all comes from their different life experiences, and they are all for your good. Someday, you'll find the answer in your own mind, so don't be too nervous, kids, and have good dreams!"
Only Vivien Leigh and Charlotte were left in the room.
The silver dragon princess Fei Wenli pinched her nose violently, and poured down the bitter ale, she blushed and said to Charlotte with a confused look in her eyes, "I'm sorry, brother, I did something stupid!"
"No, I'm sorry!" Charlotte pressed Vivien Leigh's hand, which was still trying to pour wine, "I didn't take care of everything, Vivien Leigh." I want you to understand that I want you to always be that noble knight with the principles of a knight!"
"I will be the wall of the Great Wall of the North!" the darkness, the evil, the hardship, the hardship you face......" Charlotte raised the ale in her hand and winked at her, "I'll resist it!"
"Brother, brother......" The little princess's lake-clear eyes blew through the mist.
"So, let's toast to the Guardian!"
“…… Well, cheers!"
The ale in the cup splashed swirls and ripples, and for Vivien Leigh at this moment, it seemed that the bitter and inferior ale was as sweet as honey added to Horcente......
In the dead of night, the already unpopular town fell into a deep sleep.
The cold wind of winter is howling, and the cold wind blowing from the mountains and forests of the town is piercing chill. The Knights of Erosa were ordered to stand guard with their backs to mechanical dragons, and they snuggled up with the mechanical legions from Icewind Castle, relying on each other's massive size to withstand the cold winds from the woods.
Towards the end of the night, the cold dew on the armor on the back of the knights had turned to ice, and they were warming themselves from the dead branches in the woods, and the temperature of the campfire on their chests was warm, but their backs were cold. They endured the smell of fire and ice, wishing they could turn into an ignorant army of machines to withstand the unbearable night.
But no matter how tired and embarrassed they were, their good military qualities still kept them to their duty, and they guarded and guarded the Grand Duke sleeping in the town in groups.
The knight on night stood up and moved his hands and feet. He took off his gloves and breathed into his cold hands. At this time, he noticed a sudden mist floating in the forest not far away.
"Damn weather!"
He stamped his foot, complaining about the cold climate. He lit a few idle torches and placed them in several important levels to get a better view of the approaching mist.
By the time the knight had done all this, the mist was about to spread over their warning point. He looked at the spreading fog and realized that the visibility in the fog was far lower than he had imagined.
He thought about it for a moment and decided to wake up the other three comrades with his squad. The good habits developed in the northern battlefield allow the elite knights of Erosa not to ignore a single small detail. Often, a small mistake can lead to total annihilation.
He walked over to his teammates who were curled up on the hay, and was about to wake them up, only to find two red lights suddenly coming out of the eyes of the mechanical earth dragon from Icewind Castle. At the same time, the mechanical knight, who was originally sitting on the earth dragon with his head down, also straightened his chest and stomach, and raised the four-meter-long cavalry spear in his hand high.
This is not the first time that the Knight has teamed up with the Icewind Castle Mech Legion!
In the Northern Battlefield, Erosa and Icewind have formed an unbreakable military alliance, and it is with the help of the mages of Icewind Castle that they can confidently and boldly charge into battle, leaving the alien long-range strike force in the hands of those allies.
And tonight, in the seemingly safe suzerain's country, it looks like they will join forces against the enemy again.
"Knights on alert!
With roars from various warning points, the tranquility of the town is about to be shattered by bloody slaughter!
