"Really...... That's what he said. ”

The Dictator in the terminal of the interface still maintained his trademark "angelic smile", and from that indifferent smile, Lance Rode had no glimpse of how the Supreme felt about his report.

In fact, this is how most people feel when they communicate with Li Lin, this one has never shown an expression other than a smile at any time, but no one will have a sense of disobedience because of this. Maybe it's because his smile is always just right, or maybe it's because his smile has a unique sense of mystery and attraction, just like a woman with a mysterious smile in the painter's brush, allowing people to inadvertently immerse themselves in that suffocating beauty.

That smile may be really beautiful, so beautiful that it can even suck people's souls into it.

But Lance Rodai always felt that smile was a little oozing.

It's not a matter of appearance, nor of the way of speaking or attitude, it's just that there are some subtle differences between that smile and a normal, heartfelt smile. Yes, it's not so much smiling at others, it's more like using a smile mask to repel people from thousands of miles away......

"Do you think I'm a little impersonal?"

The mask-like smiling face raised the corners of his mouth, and the impact of his insight flowed all over his body, and the words of "how dare you ......" just came out, and the other party waved his hand at him.

"Nothing to be embarrassed about. The former guardian uses this method to test and impact the former ward, which is a very serious problem from the perspective of human ethics and personal protection. It's strange not to be complained about. ”

As Li Lin said, the topic of Lance Rodette's conversation with Roland was basically chosen by him, and the purpose was to test Roland's will and reaction.

The same question, faced with different questioners, with different mindsets, gives subtle differences. In particular, a person like Lance Rodie, who has a subtle similar position to Roland, will become more complex under the sense of immediacy like a mirror, and the answers he makes at this time will be more valuable for reference.

It would be even more perfect if, because of their similarity, they could foster a relationship through interactions similar to today's, and finally get a sample to choose from......

Lance Rode had no need and should not know these truths. As a pawn with high added value, she has a lot of uses, and she should not be exposed to some dangerous secrets too soon. In such a situation, it is the right thing to do to guide Miss Knight with a set of statements that are easy to accept and not easy to be suspected.

"There is nothing wrong with saving one more person, reducing one's misfortune or justice – there is nothing wrong with that, it is in line with the principles of fraternity and equality, and no one with the slightest moral awareness and conscience will criticize it. ”

It would be foolish to deny the concepts of justice, equality and fraternity. Maybe these concepts are not implemented, maybe they will be ridiculed, or maybe as you enter society, the more people and things you come into contact with, the more you will understand that "the more you grow up, the more you understand that there is no justice in this world". But even those who reject these concepts still have a ruler in their minds when they mention those words—a ruler for measuring justice and injustice.

Justice has long been everywhere, and the denial of a concept of assimilation with the world is tantamount to a denial of the world itself. No one will accept such whimsical gibberish.

Although it cannot be denied, the standards and definitions of justice can be manipulated and adjusted.

In the same way, our justice is not wrong, but some people don't like this form of justice. ”

"Don't like it?"

"Yes, I don't like it. ”

The beneficiaries of the old system, the defenders of the old order, the defenders of the old morality, those who lost their families, their property, their dignity in the flames of war – will never like the "justice under the new order" advocated by Alfheim.

As for Roland, he was more of a martyr. One is trying to forge a new path between the old order and the new order, trying to lead the world to a future with multiple possibilities.

It's like an ascetic prophet.

It's just that the vast majority of prophets are always burned at the stake in the end, and their claims are not proven correct until long after they have been reduced to ashes.

Will Roland be the lucky exception, in its current form, the probability is slim to none.

Of course, they don't like it because they have their own reasons and claims, and those claims are also very reasonable. It's not impossible to communicate verbally to change some of them...... It's just that the vast majority of people don't change because of this. ”

The so-called would rather give to friends than house slaves. This is not so much a shameless statement as it is an expression of the true psychology of many of the ruling class. How could the powerful who sat high above the clouds allow the slaves of the past to break into their estates and palaces, and in their eyes, the lower masses were not even human, but a group of two-legged beasts or half-humans and half-beasts who could talk and work. As for the pointy-eared heretics, they are a useless pest from any point of view, like a boar or a locust that spoils the crops, and should be disposed of as soon as they are discovered, so as not to cause endless trouble.

How can people with this kind of thinking accept a new order that is completely different from them, and it is better to cooperate with external forces than to share profits with these lowly slaves.

Even some of Roland's ideas, such as equality, freedom, and fraternity, are considered by these guys to be great rebellious heresies. You must know that people always say, "Who is the king and who is the beggar, that is determined by the arrangement of the mother goddess." It was like this in the past, it is like this now, and it will be like this in the future." You and these guys who are full of dignity and inferiority are going to talk about "I am for everyone, everyone is for me", believe it or not, and immediately drag you down and burn you.

Roland's moderate reformism was not tolerated in this generation, not to mention Alfheim's elven supremacy, imperialism, and expansionism, and from the very beginning there was no room for compromise between the two sides. The war will not end until one side falls.

This is also the most secret and central motive of the nations to help Charlemagne: two equally dangerous beasts, they should be kept in the Colosseum and continue to fight until they are both destroyed. That way, the spectators in the stands are safe.

"In the end, just because of the childish feeling of 'not liking', even the possibility of looking at the other person's strengths to change oneself and promote one's own progress is stifled. Nothing has changed, just spinning in place, wasting precious time and countless lives in vain. ”

– so change is necessary.

- But.

- Is this alone enough to justify the new order?

Looking at the dictator in the interface, Lance Rodde questioned in her heart.

"The legitimacy of the new order is not achieved through discussion, but by presentation of results. Rather than talking on paper, it is better to show the public who only want results what they want to see: security, stability, work, family, bread...... Compared to these, Huamei's articles are not worth mentioning at all. ”

The discerning voice came again, and with the fear of being watched by the abyss in the depths of his heart, Lance Roodle asked rhetorically:

But this is tantamount to bribing the people in exchange for their approval of the new order. ”

That's right, it's actually a bribe.

When the table is full of abundant food, with a stable income and sufficient security, who cares whether it is a human or an elf who rules them? On the contrary, who cares about the truth and righteousness when they are hungry every day, have no fixed place to live, and have no food and clothing.

People are such realistic creatures.

"I can't help it...... However, I think you can try to look at this kind of problem from a different perspective, and I don't mean that you are too negative, Lord Lance Roder. Well, you better remember that we also act with good intentions. ”

"Good ......?"

"It's not irony, it's not a joke. The establishment of Alfheim and the initiation of this revolution all stemmed from the desire to redeem and correct the whole world. This is the same as wanting to improve the life of your family, working hard to manage your work, wanting to get ahead, and constantly working hard. ”

"But it's actually selfish. As you said before, clinging to selfishness leads to strife and misfortune. ”

That's true, but if you really look at everyone with a pure and flawless standard, not only will you feel endless, but you will also feel that the world is dark. Rather than getting into such a bull's horn and not being able to move, it is better to first make the results acceptable to the people, and then slowly improve the moral standards of the people over a long period of time. What do you think?"

The spy looked at him and adjusted his expression, and Lance Rode replied with a "I see" answer.

Three minutes later, the already closed call line was activated again, this time standing in front of the dictator was the captain of the pro-guard.

"Your Excellency, is that guy really credible? Anyway, she is also a Knight of the Round Table in Albion, even if she is half elven blood, she ......"

"At least for now, she's credible. ”

Niederhogg's suspicion did not surprise Li Lin, and if someone else suddenly told him that a certain knight of the Round Table who was a model of loyalty and knighthood had volunteered to be an undercover spy for you, he would also wonder if there was an ulterior conspiracy.

Even if Lance Rode was a half-elf half-blood, it wasn't enough to gain trust. It is the basic common sense of the intelligence community not to be gullible and not to easily rebel against foreign nationals of the same race, and they may have the same blood in their veins as you, but their loyalty to the motherland may not be the same. Forcing them to betray one side or the other is likely to have unpredictable consequences.

The reason why Li Lin took Lance Roder into the palm of his hand was entirely because of Lance Rodie's special position.

Half-elves, royal remnants of the old Burgundian kingdom, skilled knights – these are serious potential threats in the eyes of any politician. If it weren't for the lack of a suitable reason, and the value of use, with the consistent behavior of the Albians, I'm afraid Lance Rode would have died a long time ago. However, she has also been under official surveillance, all kinds of hard work and hard work are sent to death and life, and the good errand with light tasks and sufficient water has never been her turn, and the promotion and award can be delayed, and if it can't be delayed, it will be simply dismissed. Therefore, Lancerod has obviously made a lot of achievements, but until now, except for the title of a knight of the round table, there are no other such as territory and official position.

This time the accompanying mission is the same, nominally looking forward to her ability and performance, but in fact it is still the same old routine of putting the blame on you when something happens, and attributed to Envoy Wood's envoy if the accident succeeds. It is precisely because of this delicate position that Li Lin was able to use Lance Rodie to control the movements of the Albion delegation, and by the way, he also tested Roland.

"This young lady is actually more like Roland in nature, but because of her experience, she tends to hide her true thoughts. In Roland's opinion, she might be more like me. In fact, she and Roland are the same kind of people, that is, the type who 'demands too much and must go the right way, and cares more about whether the process is fair and just than the result, and the result misses the original end'. So she didn't even realize that when she was talking to Roland, she was actually projected into her eyes, right? If she had met Roland earlier, maybe ......"

"Do you want her to stay in her current state for now?"

"No more touching. You're almost ready to pack your bags and get ready to come back. ”

"What do you mean...... Those guys finally—"

"It's going to perish anyway. ”

The corners of the dictator's mouth rose again, and an unlucky smile appeared on his handsome face.

"Since you are not willing to leave the scene quietly, let them perish with a bang......

While the eyes are on Innsbruck in search of their ideal peace, in the vast sewer system beneath Lüders, a group of people who should have sunk into the sea called oblivion and completely disappeared from the world are preparing to take the stage again and make waves around the world in their own way. 8)
