Chapter 911: Elemental Creature Settlement
Maybe I stopped a lot of times on the way because I was interested, and each time it took some time. However, the use of flashing to shorten the distance between the two of them that had nothing to see still saved the two of them some time. As they came and went, Lin Hefen's forward speed would not be slower than walking with their heads down.
As for whether it will be because of the use of flashing to move, causing some points that may only be noticed by walking, they will be ignored by the two of them?
I don't dare to say that there is no such situation at all, but someone's environmental detection ability has reached a level that is unimaginable to ordinary people. The slightest anomaly that was different from his surroundings would be marked in his field of vision. And then get his attention, even if it's a trivial thing.
This combination of arcane eyes and procedural language is a combination of environmental detection techniques, which one has funningly named 'Eagle Vision'. I don't know if the Ezio at home can learn or not.
As he continued to advance, although he didn't dare to say that he had mastered everything in the Earth Elemental Universe, at least his understanding of this world was no longer a blank. At the same time, Lin also began to compare what kind of way the 'elemental spirit' he had heard should exist in this world. Or, what does that refer to in this world?
Soon, the two of them had advanced to the vicinity of the 'settlement' detected by the forest. Within the visible distance, a primitive village of rock-shaped elemental creatures came into view. And it just so happened that this primitive village was in the midst of a conflict.
It was obvious that there were two sides attacking each other. The battle between earth elemental creatures has no weapons to speak of, and it is completely the most primitive punching, kicking, and gnashing of teeth. There are no fancy tricks, just straight attacks.
Seeing this conflict, Lin immediately pulled Fen to hide behind the rocks, peeking at the two sides to go back and forth. Fen wasn't as careful as someone else was to hide herself, but she didn't come out loud either. He just stood behind the stone and asked, "Aren't you going out to help?" ”
Hearing the question, Lin instead asked with a puzzled expression, "Why should I go out to help?" ”
"Well, it's like saving people from fire and water, they are not grateful to Dade, they sent their wives and daughters and sent themselves out."
"Sister, you went to the Technology Guild to listen to people brag, didn't you hear too much?"
The headquarters of the technical guild run by Uzov Gantya, the guild hall on the first floor doubles as a tavern, and the people in charge of the siege are the people of the Ikaruga Alliance. And in the turtledove alliance, there are the most bards, whether they are part-time or full-time.
Over time, there would be a few people in the hall on the first floor of the Technology Guild holding a turtledove, either playing and singing to themselves, or helping others to accompany them, and talking about their heroic pasts. Of course, the content is also extremely exaggerated, in short, it is the kind of braggart that does not make drafts.
For the common people who don't have much entertainment, it's quite a high-level enjoyment. For a while, Finn and several girls in the family, as well as the unscrupulous male apprentice Leonardo, liked the smell. I often go to the hall on the first floor of the technical guild to report and listen to what others brag about. That's why Lin has today's question.
But the lich didn't think it was upset, and said, "Don't mention that, what I want to say is, you're not going to help over there?" ”
Lin asked rhetorically, "Which side do you want to help?" ”
"Uh, the side that was pressed and hit?" Fen tried to reply.
"How do you know that the side that is being pressed and beaten is a good person?"
Fen raised her eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly: "Do you have to distinguish between good and evil? ”
"At least I don't want to be the one who aids the abuse. Oh, if you don't understand what I just said, just interpret him as helping bad people do bad things. ”
"How can you be sure that group of people is bad?"
"I'm not sure they're good people." Seeing that Fen wanted to continue, Lin hurriedly stopped her and said, "Hey, I said sister, you are now a bar spirit." What are you going to do? ”
Pointing in the direction of the conflict, an unexpected hiccup occurred. Fen said, "No, I just want to know what you are going to do in such a situation." ”
Just when someone is raising the bar with a certain bar, the unexpected episode that occurs is the village where the conflict is started, and a small group of people are divided between the two sides of the attack. One side fled, the other side chased, and it happened to come towards the hiding place of Lin and Fen. I don't know if I was exposed, or if it was a coincidence.
Lin didn't say a word, and took the lich's hand again. Ignoring the smooth feeling of the soft wisp in his palm, he directly used the flash technique to teleport to a condescending position overlooking the conflict site without being bumped into by the fleeing elemental creatures again.
This time he sat down peacefully, admiring the show in front of him, and by the way made notes on the parts that interested him.
Regarding someone's attitude, Fen asked curiously, "Are you really not going to help?" ”
"I don't know what the reason for the conflict is, I don't know what the two sides stand for, and I don't know if I will become the target of a mass attack by both sides if I intervene. If you don't know anything, no matter what you do, you are irresponsible to yourself and others. Besides, judging others by your own standards, don't you think such an attitude is quite arrogant? It's not like I'm too lazy to move, so I don't help. ”
"Actually, if you don't explain the last sentence, I'm almost convinced by you." Fen said. But she also had to admit that someone's concerns were right. The reason why I ask so many questions is also because I am worried that someone will be dizzy, impulsive, and meddle in things that should not be interfered with. As it turned out, she still underestimated the man's fear. And the follow-up question is pure raising the bar......
However, Lin still explained: "Well, to be honest, it's because I see that this fight, whether it's the winner or the loser, won't make me empathize." That is, the feeling of pity for the weak and reverence for the strong. Because I don't know what kind of defeat it takes, and the losing side is a loss; I also don't know where and what the winning side won. What's more, these elemental creatures are not like humans, and I can't tell if there are any of them called the elderly, weak, women and children, that is, the weak in the general sense. So when I encounter this conflict, it feels like I saw two dogs biting each other on the road, and I really can't think of helping. ”
To put it simply, if someone can't feel 'empathy', they can't help because of empathy. It was also the person in front of him who mentioned it, and Fen also noticed that he seemed to have lost this feeling a long time ago. It's not reason, it's just a loss of pity. But she didn't care about that, and asked, "So, look?" ”
"Well, wait and see what happens. And with this one clash just right, I should be able to see something I want to see. ”
"What's that?" Fen asked curiously.
"It's the conflict itself. How do earth elemental creatures fight in this world, and what is their purpose? And there is conflict, so that we have the opportunity we need. If this world were a utopian ideal country, with no desires and no desires, then there would be nothing to do with us, would it? Conflict is not only a crisis, but also a rare turning point at some times. “
