Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

Under the dim and cold moonlight, if the melody of "Moonlight Sonata" echoed in the ruins, Gerus opened the cigarette case and pulled out a slender cigarette.

"Come talk."

Lighting the cigarette, Gerles handed the cigarette case to Roland, and when he didn't answer it, he happily received it.

"It is a good habit not to smoke, and the adult does not smoke."

In the words, there was a meaning of ridicule, enduring the unexpected pain of being knocked sideways and sideways, Roland stared quietly at the eyes of Gerles.

Lying, hypocrisy, persuasion, sophistry—it's all useless to Geralds, even silence is meaningless.

Every "seven deadly sins" has its own unique power, and Gerald's power is "mind reading."

The unpredictable heart of the people is nothing but a record of updates and revisions to him at any time, which can be read at any time, no one can refuse, no one can escape.

"Yes, evasion and refusal to answer have no effect on me. I know your thoughts that you cannot refuse me from the beginning. By the way, this space is very safe, and the conversation between us will never have a first place. Three people know."

"...Do you know what you are doing?"

This is undoubtedly a major betrayal of Li Lin, and there is no room for defense.

"Of course it is."

It is impossible to be unclear, anything else can be unclear or wrong, but this matter alone must not be forgotten, and the time when it is forgotten is the time of death.

"Everything depends on the judgment of the adult. It doesn't make sense for him to argue. What we think is not important, the key is how he judges. But I believe that the adult will also agree that this conversation is worth the risk."

"So, what are you talking about?"

"Before officially entering the topic, I want to ask you a question."

After playing the soot, Gerus asked:

"There is a king who rules the country with terror. One day, the unbearable people lifted the flag of terror and launched a rebellion. They pulled the king off the throne and pushed him off the platform. Generally speaking, that Falling from the height of the six-story building, even the dangerous species should be hung up, but the king is living well."

"..."

"Even a fool knows that the king is a monster. It is a monster that can’t be killed by the number and strategy. The next step is to eliminate and revenge. Those who try to overthrow the rule of terror will be engulfed by the terror before it, so the people decide to follow the king. To push the principal out as a sacrifice to quell the king’s anger. The people spurned and beaten those who were former heroes, saying that they were deceivers who deceived everyone, and they were innocent victims. Although this is also part of the truth , But that’s more to draw a line. After the fact that the revolution is destined not to succeed is clear, it’s the only way for all to be clear of themselves and following the king. Don’t disobey, treat every word of the king with anxiety and fear, everyone can still live, and life can continue.”

"..."

"The king, the people, and the guy who is the hero and then the sacrifice, if you must choose a sinner who bears all the responsibilities, who would you choose?"

Sinister question.

It is also a highly realistic issue.

Ordinary people would choose the king without hesitation, would they? Shouldn't the monsters that practiced terror rule and the tyrants hated by the people be the root cause of all problems?

The truth is true, but it does not apply.

The king is undoubtedly the core of the problem, but he is also an undead monster and will not be hit or overthrown. Even if he is willing to take responsibility, no one can do anything with him, let alone the probability of taking responsibility.

What about the people and the people who propose to overthrow the king? It seems that it is the most realistic and the only way for them to bear the blame and carry all responsibilities. But which one of morality, justice, ethics, and humanity? Can anyone accept this result? Impossible, no one will agree, it may seem silent on the surface, but everyone is brewing greater resentment and anger.

No matter how you answer it, the answer will not convince everyone, let alone satisfy everyone.

It is originally difficult or impossible to satisfy everyone. In this question, contradictions and injustices are magnified to the maximum. The too sharp and harsh environmental presets make the options available for answers extremely limited and very Difficult to reconcile, this is the crux of the whole problem.

and--

"It's very visual, right? It's very similar to the current world, no, it's not very much. There is now an emperor who is immortal and never makes mistakes, leading an empire that fears no one, and does not fear any challenges. , Dominate everything at will. Most people do not like the emperor and the empire, but no one dares to provoke the empire and destroy the new order established by the empire. Only you are the exception."

With a breath of smoke, Gerles pointed at Roland with a cigarette.

"You must not die."

Just like those who first advocated uprising, but in the end were regarded as sacrifices to calm down the king's anger.

"History will say that you are a'stupid guy', those who lost their family members in the uprising will curse you, and those who suffered losses in the turmoil will say that you are the one who did bad things. Not only did you lose your life and die The lack of fair treatment afterwards is the most miserable end."

There are also people in history who ushered in a miserable end, but eventually ushered in rebellion after ten years and 100 years~www.wuxiaspot.com~ However, this theory of "justice will be late but never absent" really does not apply in this world, The emperor is immortal and the empire is indestructible. How can people who have no way to do this achieve an impossible thing? In contrast, accepting the status quo and rationalizing everything is the correct and sensible approach.

Even if it is extremely ugly, this is the reality, this is the world, no one can blame, and no one can change.

"Is it a happy thing to be alive? Maybe it is, maybe it is not. But life, especially intelligent life, must be filthy and despicable. That is innate instinct, and it is a destiny to bear. As long as you live, as long as you live As a person, there is no way to escape the desire to survive, to avoid thinking of betraying others for the sake of survival. No one has no self, no one has no self desire. Living loyal to desire is not shameful. This is true for everyone, including you and me."

Gerald's voice was calm.

Not hyperactive or gentle, neither estranged nor intimate, but just speak a very natural thing in a tone of fact.

It’s just that.

but.

Knowing that the guy in front of him had ulterior motives, and the ability to see through the human mind, Roland couldn't help but feel that--

"The common sense in the world is like this. Most people call on this life, and only have to live their lives. But there are people who still think about and try to break this system even in this world, to create their own choices. , Who decides his own life."

Gerus stopped and flicked out the burnt cigarette butt, looking at Roland with his neck tilted.

"...Go on."

After a few seconds of silence, Roland said.

With a sneer, Gerus took out the cigarette case again.
