Chapter 253 The Meaning of Death

Although it shouldn't be a problem to stop these civilians with the strength of adventurers, first, the poison needle knew that he was at a loss, and secondly, even if the guild members from home wanted to stop them, they were surprised to find that these ordinary "civilians" were unexpectedly difficult to stop?

Seeing these people rushing into the guild in a swarm, they immediately pulled out hammers, wrenches and other things that they didn't know where they were hiding before, and smashed them everywhere. I could only hear the sound of tinkling inside, and this guild, which was absolutely worth a lot of money in decoration, immediately turned into a chaotic scene of chickens and dogs.

Standing at the door, Arrow watched the "grief-filled and angry" people inside drive away the waitress, smash the counter, and destroy the huge task bulletin board, and couldn't help but shake his head and say, "No matter what, you shouldn't be rude...... People can't be resurrected after death, so what's the point of smashing it? Alas......"

The mayor of Round Cheese on the side shook his head and said, "President Arrow, I know that you have always been very kind-hearted and kind. But this time the honey jar killed someone's life. Look at other people's orphans and widows, isn't it pitiful enough? ”

A slightly embarrassed expression appeared on Arrow's face, and at that moment, he heard a loud bang, and the huge glass chandelier was knocked down, smashing into a scattered bead on the floor of the guild hall. At this scene, Arrow raised his eyebrows slightly, and then sighed: "Alas...... Maybe I'm really too kind...... It would be a good thing if it could end like this......"

"What about Norris? What about the Norris people?! Of course he is responsible for the guild he opened! What about people? What about people!! ”

Seeing that it was almost smashed, some of the noisy "family members" roared again. And when the members of the honey pot saw that these people had actually burned the fire to the head of their boss behind the scenes, they finally stopped cowering and stepped forward to stop it.

"Have you had enough! Smash you too! Still looking for His Excellency the Viscount?! This matter has nothing to do with His Excellency the Viscount! ”

"How does it not matter? Everyone knows it's Norris's guild! That means it was Norris, that bastard who killed my brother! O my poor brother! Does Norris still want to hide? No way! ”

"Let Norris out! Give back my brother's life! Let him out! ”

"That's right, that's right! Get out of here that bastard who only knows how to make money! My brother-in-law's life can't just be counted! He must give us an explanation! Be sure to give us a satisfactory explanation!! ”

It's not like Iero hasn't seen riots before.

Once the rioters begin to be dominated by emotions, their actions become very incoherent, and all actions begin to be inapplausible by normal human thinking. In its place, there is only the desire to destroy, which obeys the most primitive instincts, like a monster.

The scene that appeared in front of Arrow's eyes now was somewhat similar.

But it's just something like that.

After these "family members" smashed the entire Honeypot Guild, they immediately ran out noisily and ran towards the outside of Pelican Town. Only these guild members were left to cry and look at the original beautiful hall that was now in ruins, but there was no place to reason.

Especially the poison needle, the titular president of the Honey Jar Guild looked at the shards of glass all over the floor with a confused expression, and then turned his head to look at the pelican townspeople standing in the doorway.

However, the townspeople reciprocated him with an extremely cold look. It was this look in his eyes that made this guy completely understand what real despair is.

β€”β€”β€”β€”

"Goodbye, then."

After enjoying this wonderful "performance" in the morning, Arrow's mood is really wonderful.

With a smile on his face, he said goodbye to the townsfolk and walked slowly back to his guild with graceful steps.

Now, the guys haven't come back yet, but judging by the results, they're doing a pretty good job.

After making himself another cup of black tea, Arrow sat in the lounge area, leisurely looking at the quiet town street outside the window, and smiled faintly.

"It's a shame you were able to come up with such a 'ghost' idea."

Napa slowly floated up to Arrow, sat down in front of him, stretched out her paw and gently grabbed Arrow's armβ€”

"Use the dead to pretend to be the client, and then set off for Lagoon City early, and tie up the real client in the name of the Honeypot Guild first. Although I have seen it many times, I still have to admire that although your methods of harming people do not use blades or magic at all, the lethality is no worse than weapons or magic. ”

Seeing Napa rubbing her arms with her paws, Arrow sighed and went back to the kitchen to pour a glass of warm milk and place it in front of Napa.

The cat immediately stopped looking at Eero when he saw the milk, but lowered his head and kept licking the milky white liquid, obviously enjoying the leisurely moment.

However, after taking two sips, it still raised its head, stuck out its tongue and licked its lips, and said, "But I think you are still a bit self-contradictory. ”

Arrow smiled slightly and said, "Contradiction? Where? ”

"In the way the dead are treated."

Napa lowered her head again and took a sip of milk, and said againβ€”

"On the one hand, in order to ensure that the peasant's corpse would not be seen as a corpse, you even did not hesitate to hollow out its internal organs, carefully cleaned the inner wall of its abdominal cavity, smeared it with salt and embalmed it. This behavior seems to me to be a complete disrespect for the deceased. It's even more brutal than the most evil necromancer in your human lore. ”

"But you prevaricate with the phrase 'A dead person doesn't feel anything, a dead body is just a lump of flesh, and no matter what you do, it won't do any harm to the dead person.'"

Arrow nodded lightly and said with a smile, "Yes, I did. It took a lot of money to get those guys to want to cut open the farmer's body. ”

Napa tilted her head slightly: "In that case, you show that you don't care about the corpse, and think that there is no need to respect the corpse at all, but why do you want those children to bury the peasant's body properly after the matter is over?" In my opinion, the easiest way to deal with it is to let the corpse go straight into a river or let the beast devour it. Your claim that you want to be buried properly contradicts your claim that you don't need to think about the dead at all. How do you explain this? ”

Arrow took a sip of black tea, looked at the good weather outside, and after a moment of silence, took a deep breath.

"It is true that the corpse of a person after death does not feel anything, and whether the soul is still there, I don't think there is any pain in this piece of flesh that has been turned into a corpse. That's why I insisted on implementing this plan. ”

"But on the other hand, I don't want my guild members to be people who don't have the slightest fear of death in the future. If they really accept my first half of the theory and start to have no feeling for the corpse of the deceased, then their feelings as human beings will gradually become numb. Coco, in particular, as a necromancer, is the most likely to come into contact with corpses, and is also the most likely to draw power from corpses. If she doesn't have a sense of respect for the body of the deceased, if I don't watch her by her side one day, I really don't know what kind of necromancer this child will become. ”

"So, I asked them to make a solemn arrangement for a funeral, so that the corpse of the peasant uncle could be buried properly. Funerals are completely useless for the deceased, but for the living, they are an important baptism education for respecting life. Let my members understand that the corpse is just a mess of rotten meat, and at the same time let them understand that they need to respect the corpse and respect life. ”

After hearing this, Napa looked a little helpless. It sighed and said slowly, "This is also taught by your alma mater?" ”

Arrow smiled and said, "I'm sorry, but it's really taught by my alma mater." Although Lao Tengshu Academy is mainly a military academy, there are also some teachers who have very interesting ideas and will teach students like us some theoretical knowledge that cannot be seen in books and cannot be heard in daily life. ”

Napa snorted coldly: "But I think this kind of trick and harm people, how to make the opponent fail miserably without dirtying his own hands, my teacher may not be able to teach you." ”

In this regard, Arrow could only shrug his shoulders and did not deny it.

In fact, he was really satisfied with the job.

By the time the next day, when his members returned to the Merfolk Song Guild, Arrow could almost hear some news from Lagoon City. And as the days go by, this kind of news seems to be more and more.

In Lagoon City, the guild founded by Lord Viscount Norris in other regions turned out to be a murderous guild. Somehow, such news began to spread throughout the city. All kinds of tabloids in the streets and alleys began to publish such news continuously, and in these reports, the writer simply painted a vivid and vivid description of the murder scene of "killing people and goods" as if he was at the scene, and it was full of blood.

Of course, Viscount Norris, who realized it later, sent his soldiers to the streets to block the news as soon as possible, but he couldn't stop it at all. Even if some people are arrested, another group of people immediately start spreading the news, as if they were not afraid of being arrested at all.
