Chapter 610: Repaying with Life
Lirea is not unreasonable, a single individual, a single organization, or some organizations, or even an entire country, may not be able to defeat Achilles completely, but if this combat power threatens the peace of the entire Zephyr 6, it will force the other four towns to make two choices: either submit to Eri City, or unite to strangle Achilles. (8) (1) Δ Chinese Δ Network 『.Δ81.
The first scenario may be considered, but it is not a long-term solution.
Just imagine, any monarch, who holds the great land, abundant resources, is respected by the people of the whole country, and lives a free and easy life every day, suddenly one day, he is subservient to others, not only his own land has become something in the name of others, but even his own destiny is in the hands of others, I can't say what kind of negligence may be caused that day, the whole family will be affected, so trembling and living a life, will they be willing?
And once the second situation is formed, it will no longer be a problem for Achilles alone, and it will even affect the entire Ari City.
I don't believe that the four major towns would only want Achilles to attack, rather than take the opportunity to plunder resources and occupy land.
The cruel history tells us that even if you borrow some land to settle down, it is likely to turn into a shameful act of encroaching on the other party's entire country.
This is greed.
Some people may think that I am not right to say this, because as I said before, other races are not as greedy as Terrans.
Yes, that's absolutely true.
But I didn't say that they weren't greedy.
Once it comes to maximizing profits, they can even let go of their original reserve and completely release the greed and greed buried in the deepest part of their hearts.
At that time, once Achilles is defeated, the entire city of Eri will be divided, and the Carter family may only have a name and a dilapidated residence for themselves to live in.
Of course, that's not the worst of it, there are a lot of terrible endings that I don't even dare to think about.
Looking at Lirea's inquiring eyes, I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Who knows, there will always be righteous guys who will stand up and defeat Achilles." ”
"I don't know if I can defeat Achilles," Lirea chuckled, "but I know one of the righteous guys." ”
"Huh? Who is it? ”
She didn't speak, just looked at me with a smile.
I pointed to my nose and asked, "You said it, could it be me?" ”
Seeing that she was still smiling, I waved my hand again and again, and said, "Oh, don't guess, I'm not a righteous guy, and besides, I won't challenge Achilles anymore, it's not a level of battle at all." ”
"Your words are unconvincing, Xiao Yi," Cagalli said suddenly, "You have never challenged a normal-level monster. ”
"How can you dismantle your husband's platform like this!" I said angrily.
"Is this a demolition?" She asked, turning to Phoenix.
Phoenix pouted and thought for a moment, and shook his head: "No." ”
Hey, you're addicted to demolishing your husband's desk.
Although the situation in Ari City is tense, I have no plans to go back yet.
Because I'm now, I'm learning from Emily, and the strength that has improved after being abused seems to be much, much faster than fighting monsters and upgrading, and in terms of various attributes, there has also been a lot of growth.
I told the people in the guild about this, and soon, the other people in the guild also started endless exchanges in their spare time, except for Barbra, the other three girls challenged each other, Susan and Belle healed faster than anyone, Jackson and Zach defended one by one, Quinna and Maggie, the two girls of ice and fire, fought endlessly, Billy and Godot, the two good friends, also kept falling in love and killing each other, only Rocky Lily and Lizzie remained, and the lineup of the comic duo has now expanded to the comic trio, Lizzie not only gradually became more cheerful, but also faintly had a tendency to look at the other two funny.
This makes me very worried, but also very helpless.
As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red, those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to comic are also funny.
In any case, at least she is growing up lively, happy and healthy, and she has not learned badly, and everything is already fine.
The atmosphere of the guild is very good, and everyone has the phenomenon of improving their strength, but now, the extent of their improvement seems to be far less fast than mine.
On this day, as soon as I returned to the café after my discussion with Emily, I received a call from Taylor.
"What's the matter, old man?" I asked.
"Stinky boy, there is a wave of adventurers' guild here in Eri City that seems to be quite bullish" he said, "Our home has been assigned to them for a temporary stay, and they will move in in a few days, I am afraid that our property will be plundered by them, so I plan to leave, but the airship personnel will not let Xiao Squeak board the boat." ”
"Huh? Someone wants to stay in my house? I frowned and said, "Approved without our consent?" Isn't it a bit too overbearing, and besides, after the foreigners move out, there should be a lot of spare houses, why do you have to live in our house? ”
"I don't know," Taylor said, "Why don't you come back first?" ”
"Okay."
I said yes, I hung up the call, hurried back home, and told everyone about it.
Everyone was furious, Billy showed his double knives, and said murderously: "Dare to occupy Lao Tzu's guild, Xiao Yi, take me there, I'll cut them!" ”
Others chimed in.
I waved my hand, motioned for everyone to suppress their anger first, and said: "This may be deliberately done by some people in power, if I am not mistaken, this guild should choose to join the eldest young master or one of the second young masters, they do this for only one purpose, to concentrate their forces in the capital of Eri City, once there is any trouble, they can mobilize their own forces at the first time." ”
"But they shouldn't have given up our house without consent!" Billy shouted.
"I know what you think, it's not you who is most sad now, it's Phoenix, because that's the house her master left her."
I turned my head to look at the phoenix, and at this moment, she was holding my arm tightly, her head bowed, and she looked very gloomy.
Sighing, I continued: "Perhaps those in power did not deliberately want to embarrass us, but chose us precisely when they chose the object to be sacrificed. ”
"What do you mean?" Billy was furious: "Do you want me to understand them?" ”
"Of course," I laughed, "what should be understood is still understood." ”
"Why are you so!" Billy burst out, "Why don't you go and them!" ”
"Now go and them, can you guarantee that you can beat the people of a guild?" I smiled and said, "Even if you can fight, can you guarantee that Achilles will not interfere?" ”
"If you can't do it, you have to do it!" Billy said angrily, "Even if we fight to the death, let them know that we are powerful!" ”
"Desperate," I scoffed, "have you ever thought about Godot's feelings?" ”
Billy was stunned, the expression on his face was very stunned, and finally, he slowly sat back.
With a long breath, I smiled and said seriously: "I am your president, I not only want to lead you to become stronger, but also to save your lives, the current sacrifice is not forever, in the future, I will use my knife to let those who bully us, those who take away our things, pay with their lives." ”
