Chapter 479: Black Sheep

"Looks like they've got it!" Ye Zhao smiled with satisfaction. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a

"What?!" Emiya looked at him in confusion.

Between the two people, there was only a sword apart.

Ye Zhao swept his sword and gently stepped back.

"Uh......"

Even with the Divine Sword Boundless protecting his heart, the pain of the wound still made him let out a muffled snort of pain.

"Brother Ye Zhao......"

There was a hint of apology in Emiya's heart.

He took a step forward and stopped.

Anyway, this person is no longer the same as the big brother he met before.

Once he thought of what had just happened, Wei Gong couldn't help but clench the double swords in his hands.

"Ahem," Ye Zhao laughed, his eyes looking into the distance, "That light, if nothing else, should come from the Nine Heavens Divine Sword." ”

"What?"

His Royal Highness the Northern Underworld of the Cool Sword Kingdom let out an exclamation.

"Are you talking about the cornerstone of the main hall of Tianyu, the savior sword that is known as the treasure of the town?"

A panicked expression appeared on his face.

Hearing him say this, Wei Gong also remembered.

In his sword-forging system, that sword was the first of the few unqualified swords in the collection.

"Legend has it that the sword would choose the right one and shatter the sword of destruction in one fell swoop." Bei Mingquan remembered what he knew.

Jian Liuli's face showed a look of sudden realization.

"It seems that this kid is doing a good job of studying history." Ye Zhao nodded, "That sword is the only sword that still exists so far, and its divine power is enough to destroy the heavens and the earth."

Judging from the location where the sword light was generated just now, it should be from the pedestal of Xuanyun City-

The Pillars of Heaven.

"What the hell are you going to do?!" Emiya looked at him puzzled.

"We?" Ye Zhao was stunned for a moment, "What we want is a world where there is no exploitation and oppression, and everyone is equal." ”

"......" Wei Gong was stunned for a moment.

"Ahahaha......"

Then laughed out loud.

This time it was Ye Zhao's turn to show a puzzled expression.

……

It has been a thousand years since Yue Chuanwo rebuilt Xuanyun City.

This huge city, as its name suggests, hovers in the clouds and is a sacred place that people all over the world dream of visiting in their lifetimes.

It heralds humanity's unyielding challenge to the limits of the highest and highest sums of the sky.

At the time of its construction, it was already world-renowned.

It's just that after thousands of years, many of the materials in the stone pillars and Xuanyun City have been fumigated by weathering and cyclones for many years, and they have shown signs of aging and decay.

The appearance of Yue Chuanwo changed the fate of the city from falling, and he led the skilled craftsmen of the Heavenly Sword Kingdom to renovate and transform the entire city on the basis of the previous one.

Since then, the Thirteen Heavenly Pillars, as well as the huge jade plate on them, have been as new as ever after thousands of years.

The crowd's mouths widened, their eyes following the sword light as if following their hopes for years.

Chen Xi's sword seemed to span thousands of years.

Boom.

In the eyes of everyone, with the penetration of light on the giant pillar, a huge crack first appeared, and then the upper part could no longer withstand the power below, and the upper and lower parts of the stone pillar began to separate.

The great whirlwind was oppressed into a frenzy.

A loud cacophony rubbed between the stone pillars and the huge cyclone.

In everyone's eyes, the stone pillar that had supported Xuanyun City for thousands of years collapsed violently.

"It's done, it's done!"

"Wow! It worked! ”

The people below cheered.

Chen Xi looked at the sword in his hand in a daze, and his heart beat violently.

This sword can be so terrifying.

And, what was even more terrifying was that he held the sword in his hand tightly, and his hands trembled violently, and he didn't dare to look at the sky at all.

If the pillar breaks and the city above falls, and the innocent people don't escape in the first place, they die......

Isn't that all his fault?

……

"It's ridiculous." Wei Gong leaned back and closed the ground, and even laughed with tears.

A trace of coldness appeared in Ye Zhao's eyes.

"What's ridiculous about such a world?"

"No, I'm not saying that dreams like that are ridiculous," Emiya stopped laughing, "I just said, it can't be. ”

"Impossible?"

"Yes." Emiya smiled, tears welling up in his eyes, "I'll tell you a story." ”

"Once upon a time there was a nation in which everyone was a thief. Everyone is a thief.

There is a rule that every night, all the people will come out of their houses and steal from other people's houses.

When I got home during the day, I came home and what I stole made up for the loss of the stolen home, so there are no rich or poor people in this country, and it seems that everyone is equal.

"Although it sounds a little absurd," Ye Zhao pondered, "but, isn't this a kind of happiness?" ”

"Listen to me first." Emiya sat down on the ground and put his sword aside.

Seeing this, Ye Zhao also retracted his sword into its sheath and sat down ten meters away from him.

"One day, an honest man came to the country. He thought the country looked peaceful and beautiful, and settled here. But he didn't know the rule that he had to steal at night.

While everyone started stealing, he was quietly reading at home.

So, the burglars who came to his house had to return home empty-handed that night.

And there will always be a family that, when they go back, has not had anything stolen...

Slowly, one family gets poorer and the other gets richer.

The honest man felt powerless to resist such logic. From then on, like them, he went out at night and returned home the next morning. But he doesn't steal.

Every time he came home, he would find that his home had been burglarized.

In less than a week, the honest man finds himself worthless; His house was surrounded by walls, and he had nothing to eat.

Soon after, those who had not been stolen found out that they were richer than others and did not want to steal anymore. Worse still, those who go to the houses of honest people to steal always find it empty, and they become poor.

This means that more people are getting richer, and more people are getting poorer.

The rich are getting richer and richer, and the poor are getting poorer.

Some people are so wealthy that they don't have to steal or hire someone to do it themselves to stay rich. But once they stop stealing, they will become poor, because the poor will steal from them. So they hired the poorest of the poor to help them guard their wealth from theft by the poor.

Therefore, within a few years of the appearance of the honest man, people no longer speak of stealing or being stolen, but only of the poor and the rich; But they're all thieves.

The only honest man was the honest man, but he soon died, starving.

After Wei Gong finished speaking, he sighed softly.

This is known as the Black Sheep Effect.

Ye Zhao frowned, "Can't everyone stop stealing?" ”

Emiya laughed, "So, that's what I'm talking about, it's impossible, you can build an equal world under the rule of law, but you can't change people's hearts." There is a kind of self-interest and selfishness, which is engraved in people's bones, as long as there are selfless people, then this [different selfless person] will lead to the difference between the rich and the poor. ”

He shook his head regretfully, "So, the world you want can only exist in your ideals." ”
