"Joel, why are you here?"

Lindsay hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and the young craftsman gave him a reluctant smile:

"I'm sorry."

"I was in such a hurry yesterday that I forgot to give you the key."

Joel took out the key to the cabin and handed it back.

After Lindsay took it, Joel was about to leave, but Lindsay stopped the other party in time:

"Joel, don't be in a hurry."

"I see that your face is very bad, is there something wrong? Do you need my help? ”

After being stopped, Joel stopped and sighed.

He knew that he couldn't hide it from Lindsay, so he let go of the entanglement in his heart and sat down in the front hall:

"Lindsay, I don't know if I'm here."

"My old man told me something this morning."

"Last night, Lord Anrui came back from Montenegro and gathered the awakened people in the town for a ...... Quite intense meeting. ”

Lindsey sensed the hesitation in the other party's tone: "Quite a heated meeting? ”

Joel nodded: "Very intense, to put it simply, many people in the meeting expressed their desire to leave the hidden frontier. ”

Lindsey asked tentatively, "I'm afraid Uncle Anrui won't allow this kind of thing to happen?" ”

Joel agreed with Lindsay's guess: "That's right, Lord Anrui scolded people with such thoughts on the spot, and the two sides had a big fight!" ”

Lindsey asked, "What about the end result?" ”

Joel shook his head, "He's still a lord after all, and not everyone is for the idea of leaving the hidden frontiers. The end result is that everyone quarrels and then breaks up unhappily. ”

“……”

Lindsay stared at the young craftsman in front of her.

From Joel's expression, he could easily tell which side the other party's thoughts belonged to.

After all, long before Lindsey entrusted the work of making props to the other party. Joel has repeatedly stated that he wants to leave the town as well.

Just because of the threat of the Black Mountain Dragon Beast.

Most people, out of cherishing their lives, still do not choose to risk their lives to try to smuggle people.

Now, the situation is different.

The advancement of the dragon beast is like planting a bomb in the countdown to the border town, but it is still a bomb that is not sure whether it will be detonated!

The crisis combined with the unpredictability, combined with the thoughts of the awakened in the town.

This is even more devastating than an unequivocal annihilation!

Joel suddenly asked Lindsay:

"Lindsay, what do you think about this?"

Lindsay spoke her mind calmly:

"If you're stuck on the edge of seclusion, I don't want this to be the future for everyone."

"And if you want to choose to break through the Black Mountain, I think you should find a safe way first, at least you can't blindly go to the feet of the dragon beast to die."

Joel could hear the conservatism in Lindsay's tone.

The tone was immediately much faster than before:

"But you know what? That drake beast is progressing from the seventh stage to the eighth stage! ”

"If it really works."

"It may be a slim chance of life now, but it will be completely gone by then!"

Joel's concern.

It is also one of the biggest crises facing the hidden frontier now.

But as a weakling, what are the awakened people in the town capable of doing?

For example, send it to the door and add food to the dragon beast that is nervously advancing?

Speaking of which, Joel was already extremely emotional.

If you want to convince the other party of the current idea through personal opinion, Lindsay knows that it is impossible.

He decided to put it another way and let Joel find the answer on his own:

"So Joel, which of the two things do you think is more important, your life or leaving the hidden frontier?"

Joel was about to speak, but was immediately interrupted by Lindsay:

"Don't be in a hurry to answer me immediately, think about it seriously!"

“……”

Interrupted by Lindsay, Joel blinked and began to think.

When his mind was also freed from that impatient mood, he couldn't give an answer, but shook his head with a bitter expression:

"I don't think I can understand such a thing."

"Lindsay, I know you've always had a lot of ideas, that's why I wanted to ask your opinion."

Next, Lindsay told Joel a story:

"Joel, you know what?"

"Somewhere in the outside world, before a war begins, people always preach the idea that honor is above all else, or that the mission to defend the country is above all else."

"After the war is over, there will be people who will preach that life is above all else, and that life is incomparably precious."

"There is a clear contradiction between these two ideas, but they are proposed by the same person."

"But in the context of the time, both ideas would have been unanimously endorsed by the vast majority of people, even if they had thought contrary to them."

"Which of these two statements do you think is correct?"

The young craftsman was immediately speechless.

With his upbringing, how could he have thought about such a question.

Joel stuck in his throat for a long time, and finally shook his head as he had just done:

"I ...... I don't understand. ”

Lindsay stepped forward and patted Joel on the shoulder.

He walked out of the hut with the young craftsman, and the two walked side by side towards the town.

Lindsey didn't tell Joel.

These are all necessary propaganda to deal with the current situation, and there is no right or wrong at all.

He still gave a compromise answer:

"My thinking is that none of them are correct, and none of them are wrong."

"It's just that at different stages, everyone's purpose is different."

"The reality is the same, between each different choice, only tangible actions can tell him what is his own answer."

With that, Lindsay sent a dazed Joel back to the artisan hut.

But in the night, when Lindsay herself returned to the cabin, she couldn't help but sigh:

"This kind of problem ......"

"I'm a stinky gamer, how can I solve it easily?"

In this contradiction between the human heart and reality.

Lindsay's entanglement at the moment is the same as Joel's just left.

Of course, he wanted not to be confined to the hidden frontier, but he couldn't have wanted the townspeople to lose their lives because of this.

If he could, Lindsay would have wished he had been like the protagonist of the game, and now he would rush to Montenegro regardless of it, and there would always be some wonderful karmic opportunity for him to kill the dragon beast and naturally solve all the contradictions.

But reality often doesn't give people such opportunities.

Thinking like this, Lindsay's low gaze gradually became sharp in the night.

Based on his meager insight, there is now a little new speculation.

The contradiction between An Rui and the awakened people in the town is essentially an irreconcilable contradiction of ideas.

It is impossible to conclude a meeting that ends unhappily.

There is bound to be an uproar in the town.

If you think it's serious, the town may fall apart in the end, or even erupt into a violent internal conflict!

"If this happens, what am I supposed to do?"

As he pondered, Lindsay's gaze finally focused on his own attribute panel, which was where the possibilities lay for him.

The answer is the same as what he just told Joel:

"The solution to the problem can only be found in action."

"We must become stronger and solve the root cause of the problem, otherwise things will only get out of control in contradictions!"
