Chapter 46 The benevolent are not worried
"It's a world that uses the power of the mind. ”
"A long time ago, wizards discovered it. Then explore, explore, develop...... Just like wizards do in other worlds. But gradually, things changed. ”
"The rhythm of the tides of magic in this world is always changing, many spells are out of order, and the indigenous mages that wizards have spent a lot of effort training often defect as they grow...... Even many of the fruits that nature grows are harmless to the natives, but highly poisonous to the shamans. ”
"We all know that the mind is a very secret being. ”
"Worlds that are good at psychic power are more resistant to external changes than other worlds...... Well, in the words of the wizarding investigators, the world is too selfish to prevent the people living in this world from pursuing a better future just for the sake of their own existence. ”
The gentleman told Zheng Qing in a slow voice about the history of this world and the origin of these 'aquariums'. The young public-funded students always have a bit of an awkward feeling when they listen to it.
To understand it in his simple understanding, this is probably a history of the struggle between the colonies and the colonizers—oppression and resistance, pacification and crusade—that the colonists believed that they brought civilization, and that the colonies believed that they needed independence more.
From an objective standpoint, it is difficult to judge which side's claims are more plausible.
But from the standpoint of wizards, it is clear that wizards represent the direction of the development of advanced productive forces and are the trend of the times. Like all the stories between colonies and colonizers in history, the original backward civilization was crushed by the crushing of advanced foreign civilizations, and the developed 'new world' was bathed in the glory of magic and full of vitality.
"Of course, all this vitality is a façade. The gentleman nodded, affirming the boy's question:
"It's like the triple world we experienced before...... On the surface, the world is full of life. But this vitality is built on countless bones and souls. If the 'resistance' under the bones and souls is not completely removed, when this vitality grows, it will be the time when the wizarding world will be counterattacked. ”
There was a sharp edge in the gentleman's words.
Every word is worth Zheng Qing's serious thinking, breaking it and kneading it to taste slowly.
“...... These brains are the 'resistance' under the bones and souls, the spark left by this world for itself, the desperate struggle of Gaia, and the last determination of the rebels. ”
"They gathered the remnants of this world, deprived the powerful of their freedom, sent them into the formation, and extracted the deepest power of their spirits and hearts to create this barrier called 'Thought'. ”
"Those 'strong' could have had a better future...... Food, costumes, power, money, power, and more. But they are bound by this world. ”
"This rebellion is to ensure that the seeds survive under the barrier by selling the freedom of some people. If you refuse to stand and die, you can only survive. ”
"Shall we help them?" the boy couldn't help but ask—he meant the people who were bound. Looking at the fluctuating brain in the 'aquarium', Zheng Qing sincerely felt congested.
"Of course, that's what we're here for. As he spoke, he took a step forward, raised his hand, and waved. A wave of gray air suddenly appeared, rolling forward, drowning everything. All the glass jars, the cloudy liquids, the naked brains, the criss-crossing tubes, all turned into powder in the face of this gray wave of air.
It's like the tide of the moon flooding the tidal flats, sweeping away all the dirt.
The whole world is net.
Zheng Qing opened his mouth and was speechless.
That's not what he meant when he imagined salvation.
"The poison of the mind is more difficult to get rid of than any other force. The gentleman clapped his hands, as if to pat the non-existent dust: "Sending them to reincarnation is more thorough and cleaner than any salvation...... In most worlds, hunting groups and great wizards can handle it very cleanly. But in a world like this, where the 'Seed of Resistance' is possessed and the power of resistance is deeply hidden, a higher-level wizard is needed. ”
"Only a higher-level wizard can fundamentally destroy the soil on which the forces of resistance depend. ”
"Do you think we're doing evil?"
The gentleman asked rhetorically, and without waiting for Zheng Qing to answer, he asked himself again: "Of course it is evil." We are the most evil beings in this world. And they are symbols of justice and courage. But are we really evil? We have brought civilization, freedom, prosperity to this world. ”
"Justice and courage are important, but all justice has an ass, and all courage has a price. Irresponsible courage is reckless, rash and destroyable, and justice without a position is a son of stupidity and ignorance. ”
"Now, after reading two cases, tell me, what have you learned?"
"What do you have in common with these two cases?"
Zheng Qing glanced at Mr. blankly, and then looked down at the small book in his hand—it was crowded with what Mr. had said before, and it was also full of his own feelings and stories about today's experience.
There is only no common denominator.
One is a magician of the old world, praying to the great wizard for strength, and the other is the seed of rebellion in the new world, turned to ashes under the power of grandeur.
What can these two things have in common?
Zheng Qing twisted the slender barrel of the quill in his hand, staring at the emerald green feather and turning around at his fingertips, like a small windmill, his mind was in chaos, trying to extract a little oil from the water.
"Look at the essence of two things through the phenomenon. The gentleman reminded.
What is the essence?
Zheng Qing's mind was spinning wildly—the essence was that Senior Sister Colma didn't care about smashing the hope of a trickster, even if the trickster was a villain, and the essence was that Mr. didn't care about destroying the hope of a world, even if the world had been twisted to the point of ugliness.
Make nothing of?
Zheng Qing vaguely had a clue.
"The saint is not merciful, and he uses all things as a dog?" he tried to answer the gentleman in the words of the ancients.
"Wrong. The gentleman said with a straight face: "But the direction is right...... Think about our starting point. ”
Starting point?
The starting point of Senior Colmar is to be responsible for the history of the tricksters, and the starting point of Mr. Colmar is to save this twisted world and be responsible for this world.
"With great power comes great responsibility. The boy licked his dry lips and replied in disbelief.
"It's still off. The gentleman shook his head: "From the point of view, recall what I said before the class." ”
What did Mr. say before class?
‘...... Alpha people often say that Jiuyou is a group of nerds, and you are angry with books, and you are stupid. But that's not what I hope for you. Your pattern should be a little bigger. ’
‘...... Quality is better than literature, literature is better than quality, history is better, literature is courteous, and then gentlemen. ’
‘...... Starting today, I will take you around, look around, let you re-understand the world, re-examine your own essence. Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear...... The content of the first lesson is to be born as a human being, and what it means to be human (benevolence). ’
Zheng Qing flipped through his notebook and extracted key words from these words.
Eventually, he circled two words.
- Gentleman.
- How to be benevolent.
Zheng Qing's eyes suddenly brightened.
"The benevolent are not worried. The young wizard replied softly.
A satisfied smile finally appeared on the gentleman's face.
