Bodi Town Guard's Mansion, Admiral's Office

"Mayrain, do you know what has made the human beings of this world stand out from nature and have developed to this point?"

While flipping through the thick general history in his hand, the leader suddenly asked Mayyu, who walked in with a teacup in front of him.

"Huh?!" His hand shook, and he was caught off guard by the May rain, and he almost didn't spill the tea on the book in his hand.

"Smack"

Closing the history book with an astonishing thickness, seemingly unaware of the anomaly of the May rain, the leader looked up at the girl and said in a flat tone: "It's literal."

After the "......" eased up, although Mayrain did not understand the true meaning of the leader's question, she still tried her best to organize an answer of her own: "It should be...... Tools, right? ”

From the period when civilization was not yet born, when the ancient people consciously began to use tools for the first time, it was destined that "they" would become "them", and this "tool cognition" is also the one that people in this world know the most.

It's just that this popular answer is a bit boring for leaders.

"If that's just the case, then why are some of the primitive people who are also used as tools still in the embryonic state of civilization, and we ......?"

Looking out the window at the half-erected huge weapon stand: "But they are already able to use these weapons that they can't even imagine to fight each other?" ”

"It should be a different period of development......," the girl, who was alarmed by the leader's aggressive tone, quickly added, "That...... Mayrain really doesn't understand these words"

In a sense, the ship mother can be regarded as a kind of "tool" made by human beings, and isn't it strange to discuss the role of "tools" with the "humans" in her eyes under this premise?

Seeing the appearance of May Rain, the leader did not say anything, but silently stared at her blue eyes like the sea.

A mysterious blue glow. In the depths of the dark pupils, it flickered.

The expression on the destroyer girl's face slowly became dull until the leader looked away from her.

"Admiral, this is tea for you...... Huh? Is it already cold? ”

Looking at the teacup that had cooled on the table in surprise, Mayrain's thinking was a little unturnable, remembering that he had just walked in with it, why was it cold all of a sudden?

Rubbing his eyebrows. The leader took the black tea that had already cooled and drank it all in one gulp.

"Remember, it's the leader, not the admiral"

"Huh...... Hug, sorry" lowered his head in fear, and Mayrain even forgot about the cooling of black tea that he had doubts about for a moment.

With a wave of his hand, the leader let the still confused Mayrain leave.

Looking at the girl's departing back, his brows furrowed slightly.

The anti-magic of the ship girl is not constant.,The same destroyer ship girl,The magic resistance hovers between 5 and 10 times that of humans.,Its specific performance value is to some extent related to the current mental state of the ship girl.。 In the case of Mayrain, if you try to mentally induce her when she is praised by the "Admiral", it will take twice as much mental power as after she is criticized by the "Admiral".

According to this line of thinking, if these ship girls can be in a state of mental collapse in some specific way, then whether it is hinting, inducing, or even coercive orders, the mental power required will be greatly reduced. Maybe even take this opportunity to make them undergo an irreversible change (deep-seaization)?

Merely......

"The gains outweigh the losses"

The same five parts of magic power, if used to enforce orders on human admirals, can achieve absolute obedience. And as long as a human admiral can form absolute obedience to himself, then all the ships in the town guard mansion under his command will be regarded as his own strength to a certain extent.

And all this requires only one-fifth of the magic consumed by imposing orders on the ship's mother......

Again, the leader opened the book in his hand.

―――――― Split ――――――

Whether it is the growth of life, the development of the world, or even the changes that can or cannot be observed. There is a "thrust" behind it, and the previous leader's inquiry about Mayrain really asked about this "force" that promotes human development, but the final answer made him a little disappointed.

Although he himself has already had the answer.

One thousand two hundred and seventy-six years ago, the Bald dynasty and the Catherian empire met for the first time on the continent. The two sides tacitly agreed to welcome this "distant visitor" with iron horses

Five hundred and forty-seven years ago, the North-South Passage was explored and developed, and the explorers representing advanced civilizations launched exterminating aggression against the indigenous people who represented the barbarism

Two hundred and sixty-eight years ago, the newly rising capitalist class challenged feudalism, and the world's seventeen largest empires were dismantled by money in less than fifty years

……

It wasn't until thirty years ago that the deep-sea habitat ship was born, attacking all the human forces on the sea and occupying the entire blue ocean.

In the history of this world, there are only two words that run through it:

"War ......"

Gently exhaling this familiar word, the leader's dark eyes were replaced by dark blue

Why are some of the primitive people who are also tools still in the embryonic stage of civilization, while others have begun to use devastating chemical forces to destroy their own kind from body to soul?

If the two imperial states did not collide more than a thousand years ago, now he may only see a backward feudal world;

If the shipping lanes had not been opened and the invasion had not been carried out more than 500 years ago, what he could see now might have been a monotonous world of backward individual agrarian survivors;

If class conflict hadn't happened more than 200 years ago, the war would have now turned into rudimentary wooden galleons scurrying off the coast, slaughtering each other with swords and soldiers

If the deep-sea habitat ship had not appeared thirty years ago, the ship mother would not have been born, and the scientific and technological revolution derived from it would have been delayed indefinitely......

Behind all these changes, there is the same "push".

"War-"

Again, the leader whispered the word, and the faint blue light that flickered in his pupils deepened, as if it were ...... To form substance?

Looking out the window, the half of the pedestal, bathed in the glow of the setting sun, the corners of the leader's mouth pulled an arc.

In the eyes of others, what has happened, or is it inevitable, is it a disaster?

No......
