Chapter 185: Human Nature
In Ethan's view, there may be contradictions between human beings or various races, but that is under normal circumstances, and now, in the face of the threat of the undead, the entire world of Yafa will be turned into a world of death, and all living beings should unite to fight against the undead.
But Gu Feicang knows very well that human beings, or intelligent creatures, but any existence that can be called a human being, is a very contradictory existence in itself, they can do it without knowing that they can do it, and they can also do it when they know that they can't do it, therefore, between them, there are saints who help the world and save people, and there are also perverts who harm others and are not beneficial to themselves, even if they are in the case of life and death, cannibalism and profit, for them, it will not change, these things that may not appear for the elf race are too common for other racesγ
It is precisely because of this that the elves will look down on other races, and in their opinion, these creatures are too despicable.
Although he didn't want to agree with it in his heart, Gu Feicang also knew that the arrogance of the elves was not completely unreasonable, so in the face of Ethan's disapproval, Gu Feicang could only say patiently:
"Ethan, I know, you think that the human alliance here is invited by the elves to come here and want to fight against the undead, but I must tell you that the alliance formed between different races may have extremely powerful power, but if you want to control this power, you must have a very strong force, otherwise, such a force can only be a disaster. β
"Moreover, there are so many people in this alliance who have their own minds, and even if they do come here with the intention of fighting against the undead, it will not change their minds about wanting more benefits. β
"Let's put it this way, I am the mayor of St. Yorktown, and I know that in the face of the undead army, I need to provide necessary help to the human coalition army, but while providing help, I must also guard against the human coalition forces here to pay attention to St. Yorktown, so if the human coalition army is really stationed here, in order to ensure the safety of St. Yorktown, I must use the strongest force to protect and defend here. β
"People who have the same mind as me will only be more here, not less, so if there are one million troops here, at least, 600,000 will remain in place, because none of us can guarantee that we will not attack others, and we will not be attacked by others, especially with so many different forces mixed here, if we are not careful, it will become a full-scale melee. β
"With St. Yorktown's current strength, it is already very difficult to ensure its own safety, let alone suppress the chaos, once there is a real scuffle, St. Yorktown may not even be able to protect itself, in such a situation, how can you let me fight against the undead?"
"Therefore, I need the strength of the elven race, and I don't need you to leave too many troops, I only need you to leave a strong enough force, taken by the strength of the elf race, even if the strength here is insufficient, others will not dare to act rashly, and, for the trust of the elf race, I believe that other forces can also be sure of their own safety, so that they will use their real strength to fight against the undead, in this way, in fact, the power that can be formed is greater than the elves sending a large number of troops, so, I hope you can think about it." γ β
Hearing this, Ethan's brows suddenly furrowed, in his worldview, it is really difficult to understand this strange situation of human beings, in the elven race, even if there is a conflict, it is just a fight, and in the face of racial affairs, they can still join forces to advance and retreat together.
However, Ethan is not a fool in the end, Gu Feicang has said it so clearly, if he still has the original thoughts, I am afraid it is not appropriate, so he hesitated for a moment and said: "Francisco, although I am the supreme commander of this team, I can't make a decision casually, so let's ask Her Majesty and the Queen, if Her Majesty agrees, I will leave some people to stabilize St. York's Town for you, how about it?"
"That's great, thank you, Ethan. Hearing this, Gu Feicang hurriedly nodded.
"You're welcome, that's what I'm supposed to do. Ethan nodded, "Then you wait here for a while, and I'll go and ask Her Majesty for an answer later." With that, Ethan turned around and entered the castle, using the secret method of the elves to contact the elven queen.
Gu Feicang didn't wait too long, and soon, Ethan walked out of the room behind him, looked at Gu Feicang with a smile on his face and said, " Francisco, your words, I have already conveyed to Her Majesty, Her Majesty also thinks what you said is reasonable, with the power of St. Yorktown, it is indeed difficult to stabilize the human alliance, therefore, I will leave a team of druids here, at the same time, they will be in charge of the Demon Thorns, I think, with the Demon Thorns, the human alliance should not dare to mess around, and at the same time, we can also believe that we have the strength to keep others from messing around, what do you think?"
"Great, so I can rest assured, and then I can go to the Land of Eternal Night again. Gu Feicang smiled when he heard this.
"By the way, Her Majesty was very surprised to hear that you became a magister, I didn't expect you to break through so quickly, she asked me to hand you something, saying that it was given to you by the mother tree, I don't know why you are so liked by the mother tree, I am jealous of you. As Ethan said, he took out something from his arms and handed it to Gu Feicang.
When Gu Feicang heard this, he suddenly perked up, and hurriedly took the thing from Ethan's hand, and looked at it, only to see that what was in Ethan's hand was a verdant leaf, about the size of a pu fan, exuding a strong breath of life on it, and countless magical powers flowed above the leaf veins, which was not an ordinary thing at first glance.
"The leaves of the Tree of Life?" Seeing this thing, Gu Feicang was taken aback, but he recognized the identity of this thing, the leaves of the Tree of Life contained the powerful power of the Tree of Life, and more importantly, the leaves of the Tree of Life were the only materials that could make forbidden spell-level magic scrolls, and they were treasures that were a few points more precious than dragon skin.
