Chapter 273: Persuasion
After listening to Li Mengxi's words of "chess pieces and chess players", Varun put on a face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Indeed, I don't really like this description. β
"Yes, after all, Valen, you are a person with a sense of justice. Li Mengxi didn't get angry at all, he could understand, "However, my choice of this description doesn't mean that I treat others as props or something." It's really just because it's very vivid. Although the process is full of surprises, this development of events is already a bureau. If you want to get a better result, I'm afraid there is only one way left to finish this game. β
As he spoke, Li Mengxi bowed deeply.
"And then, I'm sorry, one of the initiators of this bureau is me. β
"Hey!" Varen was stunned for a moment. Even listening to Li Mengxi's speech like a man behind the scenes, he still didn't think that this was a bad person, no, it should be said that this was a good person, but there was something strange about it.
This person thinks about things correctly, what he says makes sense, and probably even the process doesn't need to be too critical as long as the things are explained. The problem is awareness.
Take, for example, the matter at hand. If what this man said was not false, then he should have acted to put a perfect end to this incident.
Ending war and bringing peace back to everyone's lives is undoubtedly a man who deserves to be called a hero.
But this man's consciousness is not a hero's. Knowing the truth, knowing that he will be bound by it, and practicing it without hesitation, this is the consciousness of a hero. This person's consciousness is to understand the truth, and when he restricts his hands and feet, he does not hesitate to give it up, but he can recover it in an instant.
Do not stand in the light, do not fall into the darkness, freely walk between the two, and play with both perfectly in the palm of your hand. This person is simply the practice of the phrase "power is only power, means is only means, and what matters is the will of man".
Is this power really something that humans can have?
"Red Demon King", there really is no more apt title than this. And in the face of the temptation of the demon king, can you resist it? After all, you already have the idea of 'is it necessary to resist?'
Thinking like this, curious, Valen asked, "What the hell is going on?"
"This is going to start from the period of almost twenty to thirty. Li Mengxi straightened up and explained, "Valen, you should know about the 'Bloody Christmas Eve', the 'Murder in the City', and the 'Immortal Bird Raiders' incident that caused a large number of deaths due to the Seven Killing Stones. β
"Hmm. β
"So, why do you think this tragedy happened?"
"People's greed, but the 'murder in the city' incident is said to be for revenge. β
"Anyway, it's a bad feeling, right? Li Mengxi summed it up for Valen
"That's it, bad feelings!"
"However, in reality, even if there is something they want, even if it is unique in the world, people generally do not kill the owner to snatch it. Even if there is an enemy, they will not directly kill the other party. That's right. β
"Well...... Most people are like that, I guess. β
"Why?"
"Why? Because of the law, of course. β
"So, what about here?"
"......" Valen was speechless, because there was nothing to answer in the first place.
"Nope. Law and the order that is represented by law. There is no such thing as a clear observance here. If there is, it will put an end to the tragedies of 'Bloody Christmas Eve' and 'Immortal Bird Raiders'. I won't say such naΓ―ve words. But at least the number of victims will be reduced to a minimum, and even if there is only one less person, it will be one more person alive. And the value of human life, I think, is priceless. What do you think?"
Sure enough, what this person said made sense.
"I think so too. Valen replied. It's not that he gives in, but that he really thinks that human life is priceless.
"Let's get back to order. There is no order in this world, let alone binding laws and sanctions. NPCs follow the 'rules' of the system, but they are not absolute. I've seen NPCs that have given up on the 'rules' because they've been tricked by players. Not to mention the players, we are completely uninhibited. It's not nice to say, it's an existence that can act recklessly. β
"But in fact, you haven't come to the ground so far, have you? β
"So, you're right to attack a group of thieves who specialize in attacking NPCs. β
"I didn't say that! Of course those guys are wrong!"
"So, aren't those called nonsense?"
"If you say that, it does ......"
"Now, please answer me a question. Valen, what do you think of NPCs. Or you can just tell me if they have the same human rights as we do?"
"This ......," Valen hesitated.
"Say what you really think. β
Valen was silent for a moment. He carefully recalled the hostess of the inn, the waitress of the restaurant, the girl who had been accosted by a friend, and then came up with the answer.
"Well, please don't laugh at me. At least me, I can't just treat them as props anymore. Everybody's alive!"
Hearing this, Li Mengxi and Williams looked at each other, and both of them laughed happily.
"Great! I thought I was going to kick you out. Li Mengxi said with a smile.
"Hey, if you answer this question incorrectly, will you be kicked out?"
"There's no right or wrong. It's just that the Tao is different. β
"You're saying something you don't understand again. β
This is an old Chinese saying, which means that you cannot give in on matters of principle. β
"So, you two also think of NPCs as humans!"
"Not bad. Li Mengxi and Williams said in unison. Immediately, Williams put away his voice, but Li Mengxi continued to speak.
"Since Valen, you also see NPCs as human beings equal to us, you should be able to understand the proposition that order is needed to protect NPCs from the player. β
"But, even so, the garrison officer ......"
"I'll get to that later. Let's continue the topic of disorder for now. β
"Okay, okay. β
"NPCs have human rights, and this idea is only the meaning of some players. But is it okay for another person to be in such a state of disorder and wantonness?"
"I don't think so! I can't say exactly, but I think it's not good. β
"That's right, it's not good. We're going to have to go back to the real world one day. If this unbridled way of life and this kind of thinking are maintained, what will we be like when we go back? Will we be able to integrate well into society? I think it's very difficult. β
"It's serious again. I'll admit that someone is here to help, but so far, until there is a garrison, everyone is fine. How do you say that? Yes, that's what you call order! Everybody is quite orderly, huh?"
"Really, Valen, what do you think actually keeps peace between players on?"
"Morality and conscientiousness!"
Valen wanted to answer, but couldn't. The memories that came to him at this point made it impossible for him to say so with all his confidence.
