Chapter 13: Contradiction 01

Ignited contradictions

The Ivy League was indeed a relatively moderate Druid sect from the beginning, but since a new Druid who called himself Sver entered the core of the sect two years ago, the Ivy League has gradually become a radical Druid sect that advocates against civilization.

At first, the ideology of the sect was only an internal member, and it still advocated for nature to be at the service of man, just like the plan a year ago for the Northland plants to continue to grow even when there was no light. But because of the exposure of a scholar called Happy Encounter, Ivy League's behavior was opposed by all parties. The people of the Northland also have a deeper understanding of nature than before, which makes the Ivy League's various plans difficult at every turn.

After that, for some reason, there was an abrupt transformation within the sect, and a large number of people left, but the small part that remained and the part that was later accepted were a group of anti-civilization radicals. In order to warn the world of the dangers of technology and civilization, they began to create explosions everywhere through technology that they got out of nowhere.

This time, they also entered the city to detonate explosives on the anniversary of the founding of Ramos, only to hear that there had been a battle at the mage who received them last night. When they went to confirm that they couldn't find the mage, they understood that the mage had run away, and when they returned to the room, they just wanted to leave but found that it was too late, and they were all tied up by this man named Zhou Zhuo.

"Having said all that, where are the core members, and where is the person who suddenly appeared?"

"I don't know...... But I know where the original core members were, a very gracious druid girl who left the sect because she was unhappy with their actions. Now it is alleviating the conflict between the Amasasia elves and humans in the Star Whispering Forest caused by the ivy. ”

"Did you throw bombs into the forest? No, you set the forest on fire?"

Seeing the person in front of him burying his head in his knees, Xi Xiangyu didn't need his answer to know what was probably going on.

The Astral Forest is located in the mountains northeast of the city of Windhelm City, and is inhabited by the Snow Elves, a subspecies of elves of the Amasasia clan. The surrounding mountains are valued by the city because of its rich minerals, and are one of its economic lifelines. Adventurers and soldiers blaze paths all year round, leading humans and dwarves to the mines.

The snow elves claim that the minerals in the mountains are also their resources, and they have been in trouble with Wind Helmet City all year round, and now the ivy has set the forest on fire......

"Why do you go to Stormhelm City every time you make trouble, you have no enmity with Windhelm City, right?"

Whether it's last year or this year, does Ivy have the habit of pit Wind Helmet City once a year?

"No, we actually did something somewhere else, you don't know. ”

"You're still proud?"

"No, no. ”

Although he didn't know the location of the Ivy League core members and the gathering place, he did know the news of the druids who were originally close to the core. This is enough for the happy encounter, and then as long as you check the melon, you will probably be able to find the end.

So Xi Xiangyu decided to pack up his things immediately and rushed directly to Wind Helmet City. In Golantia, especially in the Northlands, the speed of information transmission is very slow, and it is not comparable to that of Earth, and what these people know may not have happened at any time, even if they rush over without stopping.

"Adeline, I'm done with what I want to ask, you can use these four people yourself. 」

Adeline watched the joy of stuffing things into the dimensional bag, and suddenly had a wonderful feeling, which made her involuntarily ask a question.

"By the way, Zhou Zhuo, it turns out that these spell books, scrolls, strange objects, and magic robes are all yours?"

"It's not mine. 」

Xi Xiangyu replied without hesitation.

"Stop, these tools and things will be confiscated! Even if you want to withhold them, you have to hand over some of them to the guild!"

"What's behind is what you're talking about. But that couldn't be, they gave it to me voluntarily, and it was already my personal property. Right?"

"Right...... Yes, these were given to him voluntarily. You're going to let me go, right?"

The Ivy League youth no longer cares about his property, and all he cares about now is his freedom.

And the happy meeting said goodbye to Adeline like a victor and walked out of the hotel directly, leaving only Adeline and the young man unprepared.

..............................

In order to save time, Xi Xiangyu took out the flying magic carpet from the dimensional bag and flew to Windhelm City in a straight line from the air.

Because the reindeer had never flown in the sky, they were lying dead on the side of the happy encounter, looking quite listless.

"I don't know if I should take you with me, I hope you don't mess with me...... When you get there, just park you outside a hotel. 」

High in the sky, Xi Xiang began to think about what had happened recently and what he planned for the future.

To be honest, until now, there is no real sense and consciousness of a traverser. If it were other traversers here, it might not take two years, and it would take more than a year to beat the academy and dominate the north, but he always felt that it didn't match his painting style (in fact, he couldn't beat anyone).

The reason and purpose of the crossing, whether the other travelers are friends or foes, how to view Golantia, how to return to Earth. He couldn't figure it out, and he never thought about it, and even the fact that he was a beast was deliberately downplayed by him.

If possible, he was really reluctant to deal with these issues, and went straight back to the academy's apartment. Every day, I cook for myself, read books, practice spells, and occasionally go to the school cafeteria if I want to remember the bittersweet ones. Seriously, this kind of life is so beautiful, how beautiful.

"But escapism is too much...... In the end, people still have to face the reality and enter the society. 」

Is it necessary to get involved with the Ivy League organization? No, what the Ivy League does has nothing to do with him. Whether they love to explode or self-destruct, it's all someone else's business, and someone will solve it.

"But after all, I spread the technology, and I have to take some responsibility. 」

If you consider going against the Ivy League, then the problem is even more. Generally speaking, a lone wanderer will not have the same abilities as in a novel or anime to stand up to an organization, due to the overwhelming disparity in resources and manpower between the two.

Even if everyone in an organization pulls out 1 gold coin, it is enough to buy a magic item that can crush most people...... There is no one who can't die with a dozen fireballs, and if he doesn't die, he will do another dozen. If you don't die, you can smash the balls of various attributes one by one, and you can always find the right props.

Even if you don't take into account these one-time magic items, the difference in equipment is also a factor. Even if you don't mention the state, many guilds and organizations are profitable and even tax-based, and they can use a lot of money to equip their members. And the lone wanderer can basically have a weapon that suits him, thank God, when he didn't get rich and made a gun at the beginning, he didn't spend money to buy a crossbow that he wasn't very good at.

In addition, it is almost impossible for a lone wanderer to be good at multiple aspects, and there is always something he cannot do. An organization has all the talents, warriors, mages, druids, warlocks, wanderers, and so on, and so on, to throw out the lone wanderer in an all-round way.

If the enemy is a squad, then the happy encounter can naturally deal with several unexpected situations as a miscellaneous scholar, but if it is officially hostile to an organization, unless it is the strongest kind of legendary powerhouse, there is no half chance of winning.

This embarrassing situation that he must face had to make Xi Xiangyu start to think about using the power of the traveling scholar and the guild, or set up a team of adventurers himself.
