Lord of Plenty

"Go, find the trace of the firebird for our great master!"

The half-elf leader waved his whip fiercely.

He drove the trembling half-elves into the dark jungle to search for traces of the phoenix for Dimit.

The Misty Island in the daytime is dangerous enough, and the Misty Island at night is full of traps, with murderous intentions at every step.

Hungry beasts and monsters, cruel bloodthirsty demon plants, and the mist of no return that may come back at any time.

The half-blood elves naturally did not want to risk their lives to go deep into the Misty Island at this moment.

But the slave curse on their bodies made it impossible for them to resist Dimit's orders.

And they were also afraid of the whip in the leader's hand. If they resisted, they would only receive more inhuman treatment, and they might even starve for several days and be hung up in the sun.

Even the half-elf children who were younger than Elvy and had just learned to walk were ruthlessly driven into the dark jungle that looked like a bloody mouth.

What Spicy Rabbit Head couldn't accept the most was Karima's attitude.

Indifferent?

No.

It was secretly happy!

It was a kind of cold-eyed watching and secretly happy that she wished that all the half-elves would die in the depths of the misty island.

The evidence was that she saw a hidden smile on the corner of Karima's mouth as she held Elvy.

The light of the bonfire illuminated a corner of the dark island.

The seafood barbecue party was still going on, but there were fewer dispensable people.

At least those who stayed, Dimit's guards, and Kun's party, few of them would care about the lives of the half-blood elves in the jungle.

At least Kun didn't care at all.

The Spicy Rabbit Head, who was worried, drooped his rabbit ears and completely wilted, without the liveliness and excitement just now.

In fact, the problem that has always troubled players, in addition to whether the game "Lord of Plenty" has hidden dangers.

Another is what attitude to face these NPCs in the game.

The players in the player forum are divided into two groups. One group thinks that since they are game NPCs, they should be treated as NPCs.

Not to mention those "horrible upright apes" that look like humans, which are not of the same kind as them.

After all, this is a world with gods. It is hard to tell whether humans are created by gods.

And those non-human races, such as elves and dwarves, should they still consider the human rights and right to life of the other party?

Not to mention that Xia Guo law does not protect them, and international law does not control them either.

The other group believes that since they are both intelligent creatures that can communicate, they are "people" in a broad sense.

Except for some psychopaths, normal people would find it cruel to see chickens killed.

Not to mention killing people who are also intelligent creatures that can communicate and interact, and may actually exist.

The two groups are arguing, and each has his own reasons, and no one can convince the other.

There is also an official account of Xia Guo official in the game forum, which did not express any opinion on this.

Some players scolded the official account for inaction. They were quite active when they jumped out to confiscate the rewards that players had worked so hard to get, but now they are playing lurking.

Kun thinks that the official account did nothing wrong.

Because not all things have clear answers.

This matter, to put it bluntly, is the NPC in the game considered a person?

Yes.

Then is this game still playable?

The NPCs you killed are all living people. Wouldn't you feel scared when you dream at midnight?

No.

But those living beings will clearly tell you that they do exist in a corner of this vast starry sky.

On the one hand, these NPCs may exist objectively.

On the other hand, the pace of exploring the game cannot be stopped.

So it can only be vaguely handled first.

Anyway, there is the punishment mechanism of the game itself, and players with high moral sense will not do anything out of line.

On the contrary, those players who have problems themselves may not be very peaceful in reality, let alone in the game.

They only have the power to hold them accountable after something not so good actually happens.

He did not have the power to put the other party in jail just because the other party might be a potential danger.

And this is also "human rights".

Spicy Rabbit Head has been following him around the world to promote grilled fish, and he rarely spawns monsters.

Those he killed before were either bandits who had committed crimes or killers who were full of murderous intent.

He did not think about these things in detail.

Now that he encountered this situation, his three views were impacted, and his own sense of morality and reason conflicted, and he suddenly felt very awkward.

"Well, this grilled shrimp skewer is delicious, the meat is full and chewy, and the taste is delicious and sweet.

Come and try it."

Kun, who finally found a little sense of responsibility as a master, was possessed by the sage. He rarely mocked, but comforted Spicy Rabbit Head.

Spicy Rabbit Head, who took the grilled shrimp, was still like an eggplant hit by frost, withered and without any motivation.

"Why, you can't bear it?

This is just the beginning.

You are too well protected and have never suffered any setbacks.

You need more experience to grow up."

"Why haven't I suffered any setbacks? Why haven't I grown up?" Spicy Rabbit Head retorted angrily.

Kun picked up another string of shrimps and roasted them on the fire, saying to himself:

"Actually, it's not your fault.

A baby bird living under the warm wings of its parents doesn't know the pain of being abandoned.

A rose living in a glass greenhouse doesn't know how hard it is to endure the strong wind and scorching sun. "

"I have a friend."

"Wow, this is a clichéd beginning of a story.

Could this friend be you, Master?"

"Kun was speechless, "He is really a friend."

"He is suffering from a serious illness and has been sentenced to death by doctors since he was a child. Fortunately, his family did not give up on him.

But in order to maintain his life, the family's money was spent, and even a lot of foreign debts were borrowed, becoming a ghost in the eyes of relatives and friends.

Can you imagine how much self-blame and entanglement he feels under the double pressure of the pain of the disease and the heavy, unrepayable gratitude?

Every day is torture.

It's like a prisoner who has committed a heinous crime and was sentenced to life imprisonment, but is a hundred times more pitiful than a life sentence.

In fact, he has done nothing wrong.

He wants to die, but he dares not die.

He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that if he dies like this, it will make his parents sad.

Will let his family bear the mess he left behind alone. "

"But aren't they family? How can this be considered a favor?"

Spicy Rabbit Head said with an incomprehensible look on his face.

"My friend said that choosing to save him on the first day was a parental love.

On the 100th day, the 10,000th day, he still refused to give up on him and still chose to save him, that was a favor."

Spicy Rabbit Head heard this, with an inexplicable shock on his face.

"In order to reduce the burden on his family, he wanted to make money himself.

But what can he do with a body like that? He didn't even go to school for a few days.

He heard someone say that someone painted a painting and sold it for hundreds of thousands, so he followed to learn painting.

He painted a lot of paintings, but didn't sell any of them.

The business of modern art is too complicated."

Kun didn't really understand the last sentence, but it was Li Tianyun's original words, so he repeated it verbatim.

"Later, he drew architectural drawings for outsourcing.

You know what outsourcing means, right? It means that the construction company that undertakes the construction outsources it to a private architect, and the architect outsources it to someone else.

According to the proportion on the drawing, I drew a lot of pictures one by one.

As I drew, I developed an extremely strong interest in the construction industry. Ahem, I am a little off topic.

This is such a hard-headed person who is unwilling to bow to fate. When I first met him, do you know what he was doing? "

"What?"

Kun laughed.

"He was jumping off the building."

"Jumping, jumping off the building?"

Spicy Rabbit Head opened his mouth in surprise.

"Yes, jumping off the building, if I hadn't pulled him back at that time.

He should have become a handful of ashes preserved in a cemetery.

Jumping off the building, this behavior is generally classified as an impulsive choice that disrespects one's own life, which is the so-called suicide.

But he made a careful choice after careful consideration and careful weighing of the pros and cons.

Of course he didn't want to die, but he also knew his physical condition.

Rather than waiting for the situation to worsen, he would collapse on the hospital bed and completely ruin his family.

He chose to end his life.

This is no longer cowardice, but courage.

The courage to seek!

The fearless courage of a person who is played by fate and must dominate his own destiny. ”

“I asked myself, if I were in his place, I would not be as free and easy as him.

At that time, I felt that this guy was not an ordinary person, too courageous and too brave.

I wanted to be friends with him.

Later we became friends. ”

“Master, is your friend really not yourself?”

Spicy Rabbit Head narrowed his eyes and interrogated.

“It’s really not me. Have you heard of the player Assyrian King?”

“Super Play Boss, who doesn’t know who plays this game, and he is also my brother’s biggest rival.

Hey, wait a minute, Master, what do you mean?”

“He is my friend.”

“Really? "

The spicy rabbit head jumped up from the ground in shock, at a loss, and turned around in circles.

"King Assyria, the president of the Super Play Guild?

The top three players in this game.

He, he, he, had such a miserable life before, and he jumped off the building? "

Kun said seriously:

"I ask you, cowardice and courage.

Kindness and hypocrisy.

What is the difference between them? "

The spicy rabbit head was stunned.

Kun threw the over-roasted, somewhat charred roasted shrimp directly into the fire, letting the flames lick it and burn it to ashes.

Said in a cold voice:

"I never save hopeless people.

Even if someone calls for help in front of me, it depends on whether I am in a good mood or not, and I will choose to lend a hand.

If the King of Assyria is a coward who only wants to use death to escape pain and responsibility, even if I chose to save him that day.

I will not care about it anymore, and I will not choose to be friends with him.

Such a person is not qualified to be my friend. "

"You think that Dimiter treated those half-elf slaves too cruelly.

You think that Karima treated her own people without caring about anything, which is chilling.

But what did you do? "

"I..."

"You just watched coldly.

You neither stopped Dimiter nor told Karima to her face that it was wrong for you to do so.

Of course, I have no intention of criticizing you or blaming you.

I just want to tell you that your kindness is just hypocrisy.

Your entanglement is unnecessary.

Because no one cares except you. "

"The mouth is always connected to the stomach and intestines.

So the mouth can speak sweet words, be full of filth, and tell lies.

But your limbs are connected to your heart.

So my answer is that kindness in words is hypocrisy.

Kindness in actions is the real kindness. "

Kun laughed, "Just like in the Elf Forest, no matter how I tried to stop you, you had to save Karima and her daughter.

At that time, you were really kind. "

"I understand, Master. "

Spicy Rabbit Head nodded solemnly, turned around and ran towards the depths of the Misty Island.

Riding on the night, a ray of sunlight flew from the earth into the sky, illuminating the sky.
