Chapter 258: A bystander watches the plot

When Lynn arrives at the City Lord's Mansion, he finds that he can no longer control his body freely.

At this moment, he is in a state like the barrage has talked to him about "entering the plot", he can observe the things around him, but he cannot interfere with or change the process that has been customized, and only when this plot is over, he can have free time.

Frowning slightly, Lynn was not too impatient, just silently watching what "Lynn" would do next.

The so-called City Lord's Mansion is not as luxuriously constructed as the City Lord's Mansion in the real world, and its architectural style is almost the same as the surrounding buildings, it is also dilapidated, even the eaves are broken with a big hole, and the cold wind is howling in, and I don't know if the people inside are afraid of the cold.

Stepping past the threshold, the green-skinned goblin leaning against the gate did not hinder his actions, and through the weedy yard with no way in sight, Lynn knocked on the half-hidden wooden gate.

"Bang

After knocking on the door, Lynn didn't wait for a response to arrive, but pushed the door straight in.

Behind the door was the main hall, and at this moment the two-legged humanoid creature he had seen before was kneeling on the ground, lightly offering something strange to the existence of the creature on the seat.

- The reason why I say "should" is because to the naked eye, this thing really doesn't look like a normal living thing.

It was in the shape of a greenish-brown ball, with two large black dots in the center that seemed to be its eyes, and as for the limbs, only when it was fruiting tea would it grow out of its body like Wang Ba's probe, with disgusting green slime, and took the object the size of a human head, and then threw it into the black crack that suddenly cracked under the eye.

When it was done, it suddenly spoke, as if asking Lynn, "You, why did you see me?" โ€

[Lynn] said very coldly, "How to get out." โ€

The ball sent out a very human question: "Why are you leaving?" โ€

"My compatriots are waiting for me to go back."

"Compatriots?" The ball retracted his hand, "If that's the case, why do you have to go back?" Let them come too."

"Boom-"

It was like a thousand sun-like pillars of light that crushed everything above the sphere's head in an instant, and it subconsciously fanned the dust that didn't exist in front of it, and squeaked and laughed very harshly.

"It's dragon's magic, but you're not a dragon,,,,,,, you're a thief." At this time, the ball finally opened its eyes, and when it opened, two black eyeballs occupied almost half of its entire body, "It turns out that it is a human." โ€

"In that case, you don't need to leave." Yuanqiu closed his eyes again, "My lord's preference for life is far from that of other gods, although you and other races are despicable insects, as long as you are under the light of our lord, no one will discriminate, be angry, and be full of murderous intent against you. โ€

"Stay."

โ€œ.โ€

Feeling the fluctuations of magic around her side that she could never have, Lynn suddenly regained control of her body.

This plot is over?

In the blink of an eye, a conjecture suddenly appeared in my mind.

This is, to make yourself a multiple-choice question?

Now he has a huge amount of magic elements around him, as long as he wants, the magic beam like the one just now will be sent out again, and this means that he wants to force the other party to let him go through force.

In other words, he can choose to dissipate his magic, accept the other party's "invitation", stay here honestly, or even recruit the so-called "clansmen".

If Lynn guessed correctly, these should be the two choices that "Trial" left for herself.

As for anything else, Lynn hasn't found out for the time being - if you want to choose peace negotiations, at least it must be based on the fact that one side is relieved of its goals, but in this situation, the other side obviously has no desire to let himself out.

So, if there are only two options left, which one to choose?

The former, Lynn felt that there was little hope, because when Fang Cai's magic that he thought was at least a third-order or even higher archmage could only be released rushed to the opposite side, the other party did not show any stress reaction at all.

Is this from a certain point of view, the strength of the other party, at least not afraid of themselves? Or what hole cards are there?

Either way, a breakthrough by force doesn't seem to be a good option.

So, do you want to choose the second one?

But if you choose the second one, doesn't that mean that you have given up hope? Abandoned compatriots?

Then, is he going to be really corrupted in this [corrupt capital]?

Lynn frowned, thinking deeply, and Yuanqiu didn't seem to be in a hurry, waiting slowly for the other party's reply.

After a long time, Lynn breathed a sigh of relief.

"I agreed, on the condition that I need to see my people."

"Hmm."

Yuanqiu nodded lightly without any shock: "I will summon the people of the Ru clan together." โ€

Squinting slightly, Lynn said again, "Also, I'm going to meet them when they come." โ€

"Yes."

"Thank you."

Lynn said this, and then his body automatically turned around and left the City Lord's Mansion when he lost control again.

When she noticed that this reaction had reappeared, Lynn's face changed.

Originally, he wanted to see what method this ball used when he brought the so-called fellow clansmen, and then he would see if he could take the opportunity to act, but now if he couldn't control his body, wouldn't the plan be meaningless?

As it turned out, Lynn was thinking a little too much.

Because after he turned around and went out, the picture in front of him suddenly began to tell the change, as if he was about to play a projection, and quickly skipped irrelevant matters.

When the world returned to normal again, his so-called "compatriots" were already standing in front of him.

In the crowd, the moment Lynn appeared, a blonde girl suddenly ran out of it and hugged [Lynn] with teary eyes.

"โ–กโ–ก, you're okay, great. The battle outside has become more and more fierce, and we have changed places to hide in succession, but each time we have not been spared. Thankfully, you've found a place that at least seems calm. โ€

Well?

Lynn, who was just a bystander, suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Did I not hear clearly? Why is it suddenly blurred when I read the other person's address to "I"?

He soon learned that it wasn't that he didn't hear clearly.

Anyone who knows "himself" will be deliberately obscured by some unknown means when talking about his name, so that Lynn can neither memorize the syllables by pronunciation nor analyze the meaning by association.

What the hell is hiding?

Lynn continued to look down from the perspective of a bystander.

After calming the girl who was holding him a little, [Lynn] asked in a low voice, "How did you get in?" โ€

The girl raised her head, a little dazed: "I don't remember either, it's like in a dream, who told me about your location, and then asked me if I wanted to go, I said yes, and then just. I'm here with all of you. โ€

โ€œ.โ€

[Lynn] asked the others again, and the answers were almost identical.

What if the plan doesn't meet expectations?

"I don't want people to be made into those people by the city."

This is [Lynn's] self-talk, as if asking a question, as for the answer

So Lynn was able to move again.

If you have difficulties, let me come, and if you have nothing to do, you won't let me enjoy it, just watch the show, right?

Poked and cursed in his heart, and Lynn finally had to start thinking.

Since the result can't be changed, it's better to go with the flow and take everyone to settle down first.

Lynn thought so, but when he thought of the people of the city he had seen before, he felt that he couldn't just go with the flow, and [Lynn] didn't want them to be like that.

It's an independent world with no entertainment, no strife to some extent, nothing to gain other than peace and quiet, and while it can be a good place for those who are conservative about war, really, only temporarily.

Creatures who stay in such a place will wear out their character and lose their purpose in a very long period of boredom, and over time, there will naturally be more walking dead in the city.

The sphere says that its lord prefers life, but it does not say that people like colorful life, perhaps for that "Lord", what is alive is a good thing, and it is not very important what kind of life it is.

Lynn felt that the most important thing to do right now was to create a goal for these new humans, not to let them be corrupted by the city.

Looking at the people around him who were happy because of this city without war, Lynn sighed and suddenly shouted.

"You know, there is no free benefit in the world."

The smiles on everyone's faces quietly dissipated, and they looked at Lynn nervously.

"That city lord allowed us to recuperate here, on the other hand, on the condition." Lynn whispered, "Look around, everyone. โ€

"The houses here are all dilapidated dwellings, but even the dilapidated houses already have owners, and there is no place for us here, so we have to build our own land, and we have to make some other contributions to the city."

"First of all, we want to."

Lynn used false lies to concoct an existential crisis, which made everyone who was originally ready to loosen their heartstrings start to be nervous again - once people's energy is relaxed, it will take a lot of effort to readjust.

Otherwise, they will definitely forget about themselves in a long silence.

Of course, it's not enough to get their strings back on.

Lynn outlined some goals for them.

The first is to build a dwelling.

This corrupt capital is very big, but there are not so many residents, and there is a lot of spare land.

Lynn has set aside a piece of land for the humans to build their own homes.

This is a very difficult thing for these understaffed humans who have been on the run for a long time and are accustomed to their natural dwellings, and the lack of experience and materials will become their hindrance.

Therefore, this will be a relatively long project, and the establishment of long-term goals is just right in Lynn's hands.

In order to maintain the urgency, Lynn decided to return to the crowd from time to time to tell them that the city lord was not satisfied with the current situation of himself and the others, so as to add a little more urgency to everyone.

In addition, in order to prevent people from being overwhelmed by the pressure for a long time, Lynn also came up with a lot of easy-to-use entertainment activities for them that she remembered that the public liked very much.

Entertainment activities such as chess, sports, and music, Lynn took them all.

In addition, methods of maintaining order, such as money, are also prepared to be presented one by one in this group of people who have nothing as if they were primitive civilizations.

After the plan was finalized, Lynn lost control of her body again, and the image began to flow rapidly again.

It's just that compared to this time, maybe it's because of the increase in incidents, so that he can see the process clearly.

These human beings, under his planning, created a small city-state in this city that should be dilapidated and backward, completely different from its painting style.

Its exquisite buildings, the shouts of the streets, the frolicking of children, and the occasional song and dance in the wind are like a seed that falls on the wasteland, absorbing enough nutrients to bloom in the city that belongs to human life.

As the images go by, the population of this small settlement grows, and the houses that were originally owned are no longer enough for people to live in, and the new people regain their former purpose, and together with their predecessors, they will expand the city-state again.

And this expansion of territory is no longer as easy as before.

The human population is the result of human reproduction, but as the number of human beings increases, so does the number of inhabitants in other parts of the city-state.

If you want to continue to expand, you will squeeze into someone else's territory.

Yet humanity chose to go ahead and do it.

They took advantage of the fact that the other people were completely demoralized to drive them out of their original homes, and they themselves demolished the other people's original houses to create a better living environment for themselves with the materials they had taken.

However, even this cannot meet the demands of human beings.

The weakness of other creatures has given humanity an inch, and they have expanded their territory even further, occupying almost half of the entire city-state.

Just go one step further and you can take the entire corrupt capital into a human city.

The nest of the bird seems to be quite in line with the law of human development.

Lynn, who was a bystander, thought silently.

In the history of mankind, they are like this step by step, by absorbing the nutrients of the shelterers, and then separating from them after the other party is no longer useful, and then continuing to find the next big brother to continue sucking blood.

If you look at it this way, it seems that the development of human beings in this city is indeed something that human beings will do.

Morally, this seems to be something to be condemned.

But morality is such a thing as a thing that only has a slight effect in times of peace.

Lynn ignored the fact that the goals of the human race were all set by herself, and prepared to continue to look down.

He was a little confused.

Will the so-called "Lord" continue to let these human beings continue to develop?
