Take the famous Hammurabi Code, for example.

This code was considered by the people of the time to be a divine command and was enacted so that the good of mankind could be treated justly.

But in such a just code, it is possible to read the following provisions:

"If a man of the noble class beats a person of noble origin, he shall be fined a silver penalty. If any slave strikes a man of freeman origin, he shall be punished with the cutting off of his ear. ”

It was a code that would never seem fair today, but it was one of the best of its contemporaries.

In addition, without the intervention of external forces and the introduction of Western ideas, China would have been ruled by feudal dynasties for a long time, and the tenant farmers and proletarians would continue to serve the landlords for a long time.

And the peasant class in China will continue to enjoy this kind of fairness for a long time, and will continue to shout long live and prosper forever.

In fact, they don't even have that power.

Not to mention fairness in the social sense, in fact, everyone has been determined to be unfair since they were born.

The unfairness of family history.

Some people are born with the wealth that the vast majority of people in this world cannot earn for a lifetime, and the power that they cannot get for a lifetime, and what is even more terrifying is that this gap will not decrease with time, but will become bigger and bigger.

It's like 100 million assets and 10,000 assets, doubling 10,000 assets is just an increase of 10,000, but even if 100 million assets only increase by 100 percent, it is still 1 million.

The unfairness of talent.

This point does not need to be mentioned, although in school you can often see that success is 99% sweat and so on, and I just spend the time that others spend on studying and other famous sayings and aphorisms, but as long as you learn a little about those great men and giants who can leave their names in history, such as writers, scientists, mathematicians, etc., who are known for their wisdom, how many of them did not show outstanding talents far beyond ordinary people in their youth?

Just like Long Chen really knew a genius in a sense when he was studying, he didn't see how to listen to him in class, and other people's activities after class were also filled with extremely rich spare time activities, but whenever he took an exam, the other party's grades were always stable and the first in the year, and the total score was one cut higher than the second place.

In addition, in the mathematics Olympiad, physics Olympiad and other science competitions, the opponent has the strength to break into the national finals and even get a good ranking.

What makes Long Chen feel sadistic the most is that he is already a terrifying college bully, but he refuses to let go of these scumbags in the game field, especially in that kind of role-playing competitive games, he has the terrifying strength of abusing the whole school, when asked how he practiced, the other party replied-

Just play around.

Play with your sister!

This world is so unfair, that is, there are so many other people's children who want to let him die.

Long Chen understood this truth.

So at the beginning, seeing that the mysterious cloak apprentice who was invincible had suffered such a failure in alchemy, Long Chen was actually a little gloating, but El failed again and again, and this kind of schadenfreude slowly added a wonderful sympathy and pity.

Al glanced up at Long Chen and nodded.

Seeing that the other party had followed his advice so lightly and gave up, Long Chen couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Did you really just give up?

Although he felt extremely unbalanced about the injustices of this world and the differences in talent, the words of a basketball player remained in Long Chen's heart for a long time.

Efforts may not be successful, but giving up will fail.

Al certainly didn't give up.

It was Long Chen's words that made Al suddenly realize that he had failed on the same issue too many times.

Failure is not terrible, but repeated failure on the same issue is something to be wary of.

Al carefully recalled all his previous alchemy realities, and found that except for a few rare times, the vast majority of failures occurred in the last step of refining, and he seemed to have felt the shattering of the alchemy array through his magic power.

Is the problem really the stability of the alchemy array?

Al stood up suddenly.

This startled Long Chen, who was sitting next to El and was concentrating on drawing the alchemy array, and his hand shook, and the Pannia refining array that had already drawn more than half of it was instantly scrapped.

"What are you doing?"

Long Chen's tone was a little annoyed.

However, Al didn't realize the disaster he had just broken into, and instead asked Long Chen, "Do you know where the iron ore from Ramo Yuan is placed?"

"What are you going to do with the Iron Ore of Ramo, we have access to the Alchemy Array, and we can't use such a material. ”

Hearing El's question, Long Chen almost intuitively had an associative guess, but he still forcibly suppressed the guess in his heart and asked Al.

"I'm going to do metal forging. ”

"What!"

Long Chen raised his eyebrows and raised his voice, almost as if he was about to jump out of his chair in surprise.

It wasn't that he wasn't surprised by such a possibility, but that what El said was exactly the same as Long Chen's guess in his heart.

But it was precisely because of this that Long Chen became more and more surprised.

How is this possible?

Hearing that the original iron ore of Ramo is almost the most likely to produce alchemy-related speculation is that the metal is refined, after all, the original iron ore is the most basic alchemy material for many metal refining formations, and when it comes to the original iron ore, the first thing that most alchemists think of is probably metal refining, but why is Long Chen forcibly pressed down by the speculation that has already been generated?

It was because metal refining was too difficult for a newcomer apprentice like them who had just come into contact with alchemy, and it was not even an exaggeration to call it unimaginable.

Metal refining has always been known as the crown jewel of alchemy, and it has a supreme position in this alchemy system.

You must know that the original meaning of the word alchemy refers to the technique of refining gold, and gold itself is metal, so the starting point of alchemy is metal refining from the beginning.

Nowadays, after thousands of years of development, alchemy is no longer limited to the matter of refining gold, and it is already possible to refine everything into gold, but the price paid is higher than buying gold directly, so a great alchemist has the feeling that he has not gained without sacrifice, and he must pay the same price if he wants to get something.
