Chapter 220: Small Means
Factions are an eternal topic in Kempera, a top-down clash of ideas, to be precise, not of adventurers, but of gods on high. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
According to the creation legend, before the formation of this world, sixty-six gods were born from the Chaos Clock, each with their own duties, personalities, and philosophies, and this attitude towards everything affects mortals at all times, especially adventurers who have received the seeds of power from the gods.
For example, the god of war, who has the largest number of believers among the rebels, advocates to face challenges, enjoy the tension and excitement of one battle after another, constantly improve one's own strength, pursue enjoyment in daily life, drink the best wine, eat the most delicious food, find the most beautiful women, and even encourage killing and plundering the weak.
Another example is the god of the guardians of the good faction, who believes that the meaning of battle is to protect, protect relatives, protect friends, and protect the whole world from monsters, even at the cost of his life, and his followers are usually helpful in their daily lives, protecting the weak from being bullied.
Obviously, the ideas of the god of war and the god of guard are completely opposed, so their followers have irreconcilable contradictions with each other.
In fact, not only the god of war and the god of guard, but also the twenty-two gods of the good faction and the twenty-two gods of the rebel faction are all in opposition in doctrine, so the adventurers have formed two factions that are hostile to each other.
In Kempera, almost every day, some trivial things will trigger conflicts between the good and the rebellious, but this conflict will rarely break out in full force under the strong suppression of the guild.
But the problem is that once you enter the dungeon, the rules and laws set by the guild are no longer valid.
Advocating the big fist is both a righteous rebel, once they find something rare and precious, they are likely to snatch it without hesitation, in their eyes, it is a matter of course for the strong to dominate the weak.
Although Lu Li had heard many adventurers who came to the hotel to eat and drink complain about his experience of being robbed by rebels, what he never expected was that he would encounter it so soon.
However, he did not show any nervousness or anger, but looked up and down at the middle-aged man standing opposite, and after a long while, he smiled and asked, "Do you know who I am, do you know what I am doing?"
"Of course I know what I'm doing! As for who you are, I don't care so much! Hurry up and hand over the golden egg! Otherwise, don't want to leave alive today!" replied Mars with a sinister smile.
He didn't need to ask to know, he definitely didn't know that Lu Li had killed all the crow squads alone, otherwise he would never dare to stand up and look for death.
"Miscellaneous! Who do you say don't want to leave alive?Believe it or not, I'm going to crush every bone in your body right now!" the fiery Engil immediately picked up his hammer and prepared to dry.
But before he could take two steps on his two short legs, he was pulled by Lu Li from behind: "Calm down, if you do it now, it will hit his hands." You see, the purpose of some people is to provoke a fight and then take advantage of the opportunity to take what they want. ”
"Damn! this guy is so nasty! I can't help but shove his ugly face in his ass!" Engil cursed through gritted teeth.
"Hehe, don't be angry, I promise he'll get the punishment he deserves soon. ”
With that, Lu Li gently patted the dwarf on the shoulder, followed by two steps forward, raised the golden egg in his hand and said loudly: "Strength is something that every adventurer dreams of! All of you are eager to obtain it! But the problem is, there is only one golden egg, even if you can snatch it from me, who will eat it in the end?"
Yes!
There is only one golden egg, so who should it belong to?
The rebel adventurer, who had been instigated, instantly became quiet and began to think seriously about the problem, and after a while, the mood of vigilance and suspicion began to spread among the crowd.
After all, most of the rebels are a bit selfish, so their general idea is that if Lao Tzu can't get it, others can't think of it.
Mars, who could enjoy a hundred calls a few seconds ago, is now completely targeted, and is even in danger of being beaten by the group.
He didn't expect that the other party would completely reverse the situation with just one sentence.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Lu Li generously placed the golden egg in his hand on a large stone, and then slowly retreated, posing as if he had taken the initiative to withdraw.
As a middleman who has been in society for many years, he can see through Mars's sinister intentions at a glance, but unfortunately, this kind of petty trick to incite confrontation is completely out of the flow for him.
No, a small strategy of retreating directly puts the other party in a dilemma.
As the saying goes, a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, you take advantage of the greed in people's hearts, and I also use the greed in people's hearts.
In terms of understanding human nature, Lu Li didn't think he would lose to a native of another world who didn't even know what psychology was about.
With the Golden Egg in an ownerless state, the already weird atmosphere instantly became even more weird, and the hostility of each other quickly spread to everyone.
In just a few minutes or so, the rebel adventurers slowly distanced themselves to make room for the impending scuffle, and behind Mars stood seven or eight strong men who could immediately detonate a group of brawls if he made the slightest move.
In the current form, whoever dares to reach for the golden egg will not end up 100%.
Althea Maier undoubtedly sensed this, and whispered praise, "Watcher, you have done a great job! I can't wait to see them fight! By the way, are you really going to give up the golden egg?"
"Of course not! When did I promise them to give up the golden egg? My plan was to wait until the fight was almost done, and then I would take it back myself. Don't forget, I'm a believer in Ista, the goddess of deception and scheming. With that, the corners of Lu Li's mouth turned up slightly, and he pointed to the adventurer's badge on his chest.
While the two were talking, a young man in his twenties finally couldn't resist the temptation and was the first to rush forward to capture the golden egg.
But before he could run a few steps, he was instantly pressed to the ground and beaten by several people, and fell into a coma in the blink of an eye.
With the first, the second, third, and fourth all jumped out one after another, and the scene became out of control within minutes.
As the initiator, Lu Li didn't know where to take out a box of hard candy, gave a piece to everyone around him, and then asked in a playful tone: "Who do you think will be the final winner of this melee?"
"I think it's Severn, the tallest guy. He is a typical defender, and in a melee situation, whoever has a high defense will have the last laugh. Althea was the first to say.
"I think it's the little one! Short is also an advantage in the melee, isn't it?"
"No! Mars is the one who can make it to the end. Didn't you see that he was clinging to the edge of the battlefield from the beginning?"
