Chapter 393: Vivien's Determination
As the philosopher said, no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot predict what will happen in the future, the only thing he can confirm is the past, and what is happening now. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu Li didn't know what crossing the door of the two worlds meant to his life, and he didn't know whether the final result would be good or bad, but one thing was certain, that is, his fate would definitely change because of it.
Leaving the apothecary, he packed all thirteen pigs into a trailer and drove the Mogai Humvee to the huge temple in the northwest corner of the city.
It is a temple dedicated to the god of knowledge, the most complete library in the whole of Kempera and even in the entire continent, and it is said to record everything that has happened from the beginning of the world to the present.
Almost every day, scholars from all over the world openly proclaim their ideas here, debating philosophy, society, theology, poetry, drama and other contents, which can be called a melting pot of knowledge and culture, and countless nobles, commoners, and businessmen will often come to listen to the views of scholars, and then they will spread them to their own countries.
To a certain extent, this form is very similar to the large-scale explosion of ideology and culture in the ancient Greek era, as well as the wave of contention in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
But the difference is that the latter two collided in an environment of frequent wars, while the former continued to develop in a relatively peaceful situation.
After all, the power of the guild is too strong, strong enough to resist all the regimes on the continent on its own, even if the so-called strong countries want to annex weak countries, most of the time they can only use economic, diplomatic and marriage means.
What's even more interesting is that the guild has been honestly staying in Kempera since its inception, for thousands of years, and has never tried to expand its control.
In this way, weak countries do not have to worry about being annexed, and they will think of asking the guild for help as soon as they encounter a foreign invasion......
Looking at the tall and majestic temple, Lu Li took a deep breath and sighed in a slightly excited tone: "Knowledge is the ladder of progress, knowledge is the bridge from ignorance to civilization, this god is willing to take the initiative to teach knowledge to people, it is definitely called great." ”
"But these people don't include criminals...... "Vivien muttered quietly, her head down.
"Hehe, okay, don't be angry, I believe it will get better in the future. Lu Li smiled and touched the hair of the dark elf Lori and comforted.
Vivien pouted and retorted disdainfully, "It's not going to get better! Those stingy gods have punished us for thousands of years, and they have never mentioned forgiveness." ”
Speaking of this, she suddenly paused, raised her head, put on a pitiful appearance, and begged: "Master, if you take me to your hometown, I will wash clothes, cook, clean, and warm the bed!"
"Warm bed? Where did you learn this word?!" Lu Li's mouth opened wide in surprise, especially the word "warm bed", which turned out to be Chinese!
He dared to swear to the sky that he didn't have any such thoughts about the swarthy little Lori in front of him.
"Hee-hee! I learned it from movies and TV shows!" Vivien winked playfully.
The corners of Lu Li's mouth twitched slightly, and he asked with some uncertainty: "Do you know the meaning of warming the bed?"
"Hmm...... I guess that means sleeping in the same bed with the master, right?" replied Vivien, holding her chin.
Obviously, she didn't understand the true meaning of the word......
"I'm scared to death!" Lu Li patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "So, can you understand the conversation inside?"
Lori, the dark elf, nodded slightly, "That's right, but I can only understand a small part of it at the moment, because those movies and TV shows seem to have several languages, and it will take me a long time to learn them thoroughly." ”
Lu Li: "......"
At this moment, he deeply felt the deep malice from the world, as well as the despair of ordinary people in the face of academic tyrants, and the pain of being crushed by others.
There is no doubt that Vivien is 100% a genius in terms of language learning ability alone!
You must know that her learning difficulty is hellish, there are no dictionaries, comparison tables and other auxiliary tools at all, she can only rely on her own understanding and judgment, and there is not even a person who corrects errors and communicates.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" asked Lori, the dark elf, blinking innocently.
"No, it's nothing, I'm a little jealous. Lu Li laughed bitterly and laughed at himself.
"Jealousy, why?" Vivien looked a little overwhelmed.
The reason why she showed a talent for language was to gain trust and find a way to get to the world on the other side of the door, not to be vigilant.
Seeing that the girl was a little nervous, Lu Li immediately stretched out his right hand and pinched the nose of the dark elf Lori, and quipped: "Of course it's because you're too smart! ”
Hearing the ridicule revealed in the words, Vivian's hanging heart immediately put down, and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and asked, "Master, can you take me away with you?"
Lu Li lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then quickly spoke: "Do you understand what it means to leave with me? It means that you need to give up your freedom and sign a contract to become a pet like the little monster." I don't want to enslave anyone, and I don't want you to regret it later, so it's best to calm down and think about it before answering. ”
"I've figured it out! As long as I can get out of here, I'm willing to give everything!" said Lori, the dark elf, biting her lip.
Although her tone was very firm, it was easy to tell from the slight trembling of her whole body that she was full of fear in her heart.
There is no doubt that Vivien recognizes banned cards and knows what they mean to sinners.
In the five hundred years since the destruction of the kingdom of Sindarus, members of the royal family have been hunted down by many organizations, who have captured dark elves not for anything else, but to force these royals to give up everything through brutal torture, and then seal them with cards as a tool of war.
Since the Dark Elf royal family has the bloodline of the space-time demon god Ettar, when they die, there is a high chance that they will burst out of incredible power, create a black hole out of thin air, suck all the people or things around them into it, and completely disappear from the world.
As the last princess, Vivien also experienced a decades-long escape as a child, nearly getting caught several times during this time, until Eleanora appeared.
But now, in order to obtain resources and knowledge, she is willing to give up her freedom and become the existence she hates and fears the most!
Of course, there is another reason, that is, she did not feel even the slightest malice from Lu Li, only kindness and concern.
