"The territory ahead is the territory of the Winged Clan..."
"Vivian, how about... I just go and investigate, and you don't go there?"
Looking at the vague outline of the town in front of him, Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, then turned back and said to the girl.
Something was obviously wrong with Vivian's mood. She clenched her fists tightly and stared at the town in the distance, with something inexplicable surging in her eyes...
Think about it and you will know what caused the anger and grief.
The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.
I want Vivian to completely let go of this deep hatred in less than a month...
——It’s too unrealistic.
Xia Zhi was worried about this, worried that Vivian would not be able to control her emotions after entering the town later.
Of course, he has no extra kindness or sympathy. If the "rebellion" has been successful and his side has the advantage, Vivian can take revenge however she wants. He will definitely support it without reservation.
He would kill the whole family of whomever he wanted to kill, and he would kill the nine clans of whomever he wanted to kill. Since they were all enemies on the other side, he would not stop her and make Vivian unhappy.
However, the reality is not like this.
Their current team consists of three or two big cats and two small cats, and the cause of "rebellion" has just begun. It is not even in its infancy and cannot withstand the hardships.
What's more important to note is that that town may be just one of the many settlements of the Winged Clan, not a display of its full power. Even so, there are probably tens of thousands of goblins living there...
——This is undoubtedly a very terrifying force.
After all, after this period of understanding, Xia Zhi has completely understood what a "goblin" is. Frankly speaking, the average quality of this kind of fantasy species is extremely outrageous. Even the lower-level goblins' power is generally far beyond that of humans.
Although there are obvious differences in strength and weakness due to different ethnic groups and individual differences.
But whether it is considered in terms of physical fitness or magical power, their power can often reach ten times or even dozens of times that of humans.
And this is just a description of the lower-level goblins. In this world of goblin country, it is basically a grim situation where everyone is like a superman.
Therefore, the power of the town in front is already a huge force that their small team cannot face head-on. Taking rash action is no longer as simple as alerting the snake, and may even involve them.
"No, let's go there together..."
The girl shook her head slightly. She retracted her gaze from a distance and turned to the young man beside her. She took a deep breath and said.
"It's not appropriate for you to go there by yourself. This is not Onik. A human entering a town belonging to goblins alone is simply asking for death..."
Although goblins are often portrayed as innocent beings who only act in accordance with their own interests and have no established concepts of good and evil, behind this deliberately beautifying rhetoric, it is revealed that they are the real source of extreme evil on some level.
A senseless, pure evil.
——Just like the malice shown by children, it comes from nature. It is real evil without whitewashing, pure and direct.
——It is precisely because they have not yet formed a clear concept of good and evil that their evil deeds at this moment seem to come from deep in their hearts.
Before the Kingdom of Rain was massacred and exterminated, Vivian might have unconsciously defended the image of the fairies, trying to beautify some of their behaviors with euphemistic words. However, now such thoughts have completely dissipated in her heart.
"I……"
Xia Zhi blinked, thinking about what he wanted to say.
"The important thing is not whether you, as a human being, have a master, but whether your master is by your side to protect you."
Vivian interrupted him directly, her words were serious, and she looked directly at him: "Otherwise, there will always be some willful fairies who will only pursue their own desires, regardless of the possible consequences. .”
In this land dominated by fairies, humans are also visible.
However, they obviously cannot occupy a dominant position in this world and can only serve as accessories and consumables to the goblins. The existence of consumables means that they are destined to be continuously used and consumed.
And considering the generally bad nature of goblins, the fate of most humans does not end according to the designed life span, but often ends early.
Abused, torn apart, tortured...
They were overused early and died of violence early. This is the fate of most consumables.
When those precious consumables are damaged intentionally or unintentionally, and the user cannot restrain the desire to play with them again, it is obviously not difficult to decide which course of action they will choose under the fairies' loose moral standards. guess.
There has never been a shortage of such cases or accidents in the Goblin Kingdom - when those lone humans were finally found, they were basically in pieces, with not many complete parts left.
It is precisely because of knowing this that Vivian will never let Xia Zhi act on her own.
"Then let's go together. I hope you can control your emotions..." Someone didn't insist, but just looked at her with a deep look, then nodded slightly, but still said seriously: "Actually, you don't have to force it. Yes, if you really can’t accept it..."
After a slight pause, he showed a hearty smile: "Actually, there is no other way."
"..."
"..."
"For example?" the blonde girl asked doubtfully.
"Although head-on confrontation is not an option, we can still use the disasters like Moss, or incite them to kill each other... I also happen to have a little experience in instigating others."
He stretched out a long index finger and shook it, and said seriously.
"Even the most rational people are sometimes irrational. Coupled with the influence of herd mentality, as long as you can grasp the key contradictions, you can turn them into a mob and directly attack the Capitol..."
"Not to mention these goblins who are completely controlled by emotions and have brain problems. You also said that they often get nervous. One second they are nice to you and I, but the next second they will tear each other apart cruelly. Kill your friend's head..."
Having said this, the young man smiled softly, his expression looking particularly playful.
Goblins are such things, and even if someone tries to defend them and refuses to admit that they are inherently evil, they cannot erase the fact that they are undoubtedly the embodiment of chaos.
Even the seemingly unbreakable alliance of the legendary Knights of the Round Table will inevitably fall apart due to internal strife and dissent. How much unity can be expected from things like goblins?
Without external instigation, they will kill each other periodically, and tragic scenes of rivers of blood are common; if someone with intentions stirs up trouble, the consequences... All in all, Xia Zhi is quite confident about this.
After all, he is not very humble, and he does have a little bit of experience that is not worth mentioning.
"..."
"..."
After being silent for a while, Vivian slowly shook her head vigorously.
"It's better not to do this. It's too dangerous... We don't need to take risks." She rejected such a radical proposal, and then seemed to exhale a long breath. Although she was unwilling to do so, she slowly loosened her grip. fist.
Strictly speaking, this is not convincing Xia Zhi, but convincing herself.
Now is not the time, not the time for revenge. If something happens, there will really be no chance for revenge in the future.
"Really? There's no need to force it. Anyway, I'm familiar with this kind of thing. No matter what, it shouldn't be more troublesome than triggering a circuit breaker in the U.S. stock market and promoting the civil war between the North and the South..." The young man recommended himself with a smile.
"..."
"..."
"Xia Zhi! Your way of persuading people is really unique..."
The blonde girl had fully reacted, narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him, and snorted softly.
"But this method is really effective, isn't it?" The young man didn't blush and was out of breath, spreading his hands and smiling.
He knows very well how to persuade others. When the other party is aggressive, it is often difficult to really listen to the advice. Or even if he listens to the advice, he may not be able to control his emotions when he is actually faced with it.
In this case, it is necessary to use another method of persuasion——
The effect was quite good. It was much better to let Vivian convince her own heart than for him to keep preaching some big truths.
"What if I actually didn't listen and really chose the method you said?" The girl was walking in front, suddenly stopped, looked back at him, and asked in an inexplicable tone.
"……you guess?"
Xia Zhi blinked.
The girl carefully studied his expression for a while, then turned around. She just walked forward, neither fast nor slow. After a while, the sweet sound like a stream sounded faintly——
"I hate all fairies outside of the Rain Clan."
"Although I want to act to save Britain, that doesn't mean I want the goblins to be happy."
"If they want my help, they must pay a price more precious than their lives."
…………
…………
The Winged Clan.
As the name suggests, the characteristics of the goblins of this clan are relatively obvious.
Entering this clan's town is like entering a fantasy fairy tale kingdom. The wonderful and imaginative buildings are stacked on top of each other, with pavilions and spiers. The streets are also spacious and neat, spotless and especially clean.
Those that look like werewolves, those that look like dwarves, those with wings on their backs...
These characteristics are obvious. Various inhabitants of the fantasy world are walking on the streets, some are walking on the road, and some are flying in the sky.
There are many shops lined up, and there are all kinds of noisy and lively sounds. Groups of customers gather at the door of the shops, as if they are joining in the fun.
Xia Zhi frowned and quickly looked at the town. After getting a general understanding, he turned to look at Vivian:
"How do you feel?"×2
"..."
"..."
The blond girl frowned slightly: "Don't worry, I can control my emotions...but you, what do you think of this town?"
"baffling."
The young man carefully observed the girl's expression and confirmed that there was no problem before answering the question just now.
"At first glance, it looks very neat and orderly, but in fact it's too chaotic..."
He made a weird expression and pinched his chin, as if thinking.
"The buildings, roads, plans, and shops are all inexplicable...Are they playing house?"
"It's normal. Goblins don't actually understand the core of these things..."
Vivian affirmed this statement, "It's like they don't need to eat, but they will imitate the behavior of human gatherings and banquets; they also don't need buildings, houses, or even settlements..."
"Everything is simply imitating human civilization, but it only has the surface, not the core."
She stretched out her slender hand and pointed to the shop in front——
"Just like that hotel, the goblin inside doesn't know what the hotel does, and the group of goblins outside don't know what the hotel does. They are just joining in the fun."
play house?
To some extent, this is indeed the case. It can even be said that the entire Fairy Country is actually playing house...
"So our opponents are indeed a group of naughty kids." Xia Zhi briefly concluded. This is undoubtedly the most ferocious and terrifying enemy, especially when these naughty kids are not restrained and have great destructive power. Down.
Vivian said nothing and looked around: "I don't know who is in charge of this town. Let me ask."
"Okay, I need to figure this out..." Xia Zhi nodded, frowned and glanced around again, and followed Vivian forward.
next moment--
"Hey hey hey, are you alone..."
A surprised voice came from the side, and the two people, one behind the other, turned their heads to look at the same time.
It was a woman with wings on her back. She looked very gentle, and her eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars. She looked at Xia Zhi in surprise, her expression seemed happy and excited, and her eyes were shining.
"Sorry, miss, I have a master..."
The young man remained calm, just smiled politely, and moved a few steps behind Vivian.
"Eh?"
The goblin showed an obvious expression of disappointment, curled his lips, and looked at the blond girl next to him.
"He is mine." Vivian raised her head and declared her sovereignty over Xia Zhi forcefully. Her eyes were slightly cold, and she warned the other party not to try to make any small moves without concealing it.
"……hehe."
The woman reluctantly pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled, sensing the strength of Vivian's magic power. It was obviously far beyond the standards of lower-level fairies. A trace of obvious reluctance flashed on her face.
Vivian didn't care about her, just took Xia Zhi's hand and walked forward.
"You see, if you are just a few steps behind, there will be goblins targeting you... If I don't come together, I'm afraid I won't be able to grab a few pieces in the end!"
"..."
"..."
"This is too unlucky... But are humans so in demand?" Xia Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at the girl's hand that was holding her tightly.
"It has always been a truly scarce resource. After all, according to the bad character of the goblins, there are not enough humans for them..." Vivian walked in front, not hiding the rejection and disgust in her words.
Xia Zhi frowned and said nothing more.
After a while, he suddenly saw something, and subconsciously grabbed the girl's hand... He didn't hold it, and was dragged forward several meters.
"Wait! Wait! Vivian, stop—"
Sure enough, the power of goblins is so terrifying that even Vivian, who is so delicate and frail, seems to have great strength. Xia Zhi doubted whether she felt the way he had just tried to hold her back.
"What's wrong?" The girl turned around suspiciously.
"Over there! There is a shop over there - take a look, is that a fairy whose functionality is related to clothing?" The young man pointed directly.
"It seems...is there any problem?"
"We're going to inspect new members anyway, why not give this goblin a try?" Xia Zhi suggested, "If it's suitable, maybe we can kill two birds with one stone and let her try to replicate Index's monastic uniform."
The monastic uniform worn by the little nun has obviously not been destroyed by Fantasy Killer.
So he would naturally be more concerned about it. After all, it was a spiritual outfit called "Mobile Church". It contained all the necessary elements of the church in one piece of clothing, and its defense strength directly reached the level of the Pope.
In scientific terms, that monastic robe could withstand a nuclear bomb.
However, it is extremely difficult to copy it, because the weaving method of the cloth, the stitching method of the thread, and the decoration method of the embroidery... all need to go through rigorous calculations before we can imitate the holy cloth and gather the church on the cloth. all elements.
Therefore, Xia Zhi naturally considered the possibility of taking shortcuts...
For example, fairies are born with a variety of possibilities, some are born for forging, and some are born for construction... So are there fairies who are born for spinning, cutting, and weaving?
Is it possible to cheat a little bit by taking advantage of their innate functional or mysterious talents?
Even if you can eventually produce a weakened fake, it's still not a loss.
