Chapter 235 Release the Shackles of Desire (Text)
"I didn't expect that even the druids have begun to be mercenaries now. I really don't know what expressions people should use to face them!" Viscount Bollum looked at the documents in his hand and showed a laughing and crying expression.
The interrogation of the prisoners went smoothly, and the druids who had no experience in urban life did not undergo corresponding anti-criminal investigation training.
Although years of jungle life have fully trained the physique and tenacity of these wild children. The fight with wild animals and the battle with poachers, and even the prey of the weak within their sects has made their ability to endure pain beyond ordinary people.
Because the concept pursued by the Starkhpenser Pedrui is: the strong prey on the weak and the fittest survive. Their slogan is: "Nature does not believe in tears. In their eyes, they are naturally a very cruel and ruthless mother, using various harsh means to select objects worthy of survival, while the loser can only be eliminated ruthlessly."
Therefore, the interrogation work in the first few days has made almost no progress. Because no matter whether it is coercion, inducement or torture, it seems that the will of these sons of the wilderness cannot be shaken.
However, the long-term disconnection with the real society has led to their considerable failure in getting along with others. Because in the past, they only lived in their own small world - almost half-isolated small world. The lack of social interaction is their biggest spiritual flaw.
After analyzing the existing known information, the interrogation agencies immediately changed their established policies. Since it is not possible to be hard, then adopt the strategy of saving the country in a curve! For this cliché, most of the druids of the Stachpenses were not mentally prepared. The intelligence personnel quickly got what they wanted one by one. Although the information they received from individual personnel did not get much information, the pieced together was still sorted out a complete piece of information.
"Even if these druids live in the wilderness, they can only be completely isolated from the world." Qiao Ji was writing and painting on the desk beside him, and soon a huge number of names appeared on the parchment in front of him, and words and a lot of connections appeared.
"Pick--" Viscount Bollum snapped his fingers and said, "You are right. Even if they are druids, they cannot survive alone from the entire society. Especially for an organization, they often need trade to obtain the substances they need. As far as I know, they can indeed be self-sufficient in daily necessities such as food, clothing, etc. However, most of the metal tools and rare spell casting materials that are written by dictately need to be obtained from external society, not to mention some excellent weapons and equipment."
"This is also impossible. Since the first social division of labor, the classification of handicrafts has become increasingly detailed. The craftsmanship required for excellent products not only requires years of experience, but also requires a series of systems to support them later. Especially in terms of excellent weapons, the process process required makes them often unable to produce themselves." Qiao Ji seemed to have thought of something, and filled in some text on the few blank spaces in the parchment in front of him.
A philosopher in the world before Georgie traveled through time said, 'History is formed by wars again and again, and human talent is to engage in endless wars.' Because in the more than 5,000 years of history of mankind, the time for true peace "no war in any corner of the world" has been less than 20 years. And in this world the shadow of war is not the sword of Damocles hanging on everyone's heads all the time, but daily life.
The weapon that can be used in war at any time is often the crystallization of the wisdom and craftsmanship of the craftsmen and scholars of the same era. From ancient times to the preference for magical weapons and the worship of high-tech weapons after industrial society, it has been passed down from beginning to end. Of course, there will be no big changes in this world.
"In this way, in the future, it seems like dealing with such a small community that is not convinced and managed. If you only need to be able to completely cut off the other party's trade channels, it will be easy for the other party to surrender." Viscount Bollum seemed to have learned something from it, "If you have a chance in the future, do you need to try it!"
"My father, I would like to advise you to give up your plans in this regard!" Qiao Ji put down the paper and pen, waved his fists and said in a tough voice, "Not to mention whether the survival of such a community itself will take risks to launch plunder and wars around him. The black-hearted merchants who dare to sell and hang their ropes for money alone are not completely limited. Such suppression is not only too slow, but it is hard to say whether the other party can surrender in the end. Moreover, the subsequent hatred may not be able to be able to be overcome for generations. Instead of doing this, it is better to conquer with sword and fire. Use our own strength to tell them who is the ruler."
Viscount Borham was really shocked by Georgie's actions. Perhaps in his eyes, Georgie, a child who is good at internal affairs and likes to achieve his goals through non-violent means. He would like to have just proposed this method, but he didn't expect that he would object so strongly. It really makes me feel shocking.
"You said this very well. Use the imprint of sword and fire to let those who dare to have inappropriate thoughts know that the minions exposed to our Principality of Nokhan must be cut off." Viscount Bohram is not sure whether he should be relieved or distressed. For Georgian's performance in inheriting the will and traditions of the Principality, this is indeed a good thing. But he was refuted by this little guy just now, and as a father, he would be a little embarrassed.
His father clearly wrote his contradictory expression on his face, and of course, Georgie could not have been aware of it. But he still felt that it was better to use this method to deal with his father's unrealistic ideas: 'Just what he said just now, how could his father suddenly think of economic blockade and trade war? Not to mention that the current Principality of Nokhan does not have such capital at all, more importantly, the political and economic environment of the entire New World does not meet that conditions!'
The only one who could use this method before crossing the road was the Bald Eagle. At that time, he was not only the world's number one political and economic power, but also had the strong guarantee of the first military power to prevent the other party from jumping into the wall to start a war threat.
At the same time, behind him was also a large number of allies who were in the same way as World War II and the two main battalions. Several dense and tight networks were formed, and the blocked party was trapped in the net. At the same time, its own excellent geographical location is in the two oceans, and there is no strong power on the land. This greatly increases the difficulty for the blocked person to retaliate against asymmetric combat.
Even this can play a role. Among them, there are obvious effects - the national economy has been regressing for two or thirty years within a few years. There are also poor effects - they are still growing and growing. Even the "Tomcat" accessories produced by their own domestically can flow into the hands of the blocked country. This is enough to show that this approach is so difficult. What's more, in a world where most people are more accustomed to speaking with force!
After a little cold, Georgie immediately began to change the topic: "The key is that the Starkpenser-sponsored druids are not as harmonious as other schools. The conflicts in this are almost the greatest winter servants! So it is much more difficult for them to trade or materials. It is not very suitable for them to become mercenaries in exchange for their needs! Since it is the prey of the jungle, it is not uncommon for them to loot the surrounding villages like the barbarians in the north! What's more, they act as mercenaries."
"This seems to mention a new branch of the servants of the Winter - the Nightmare. Judging from the information I just obtained, it seems to be a school related to the shadow plane and even the status plane. However, it seems not surprising to the actions of some people in the servants of the Winter before when the demon invasion and the strange catastrophe. And the reason why these guys from the Starkhpenser Sect can contact the business of mercenaries is behind this the reason why the new Nightmare Sect holds the bridge and sets a line." Viscount Bollum immediately took the lead, but he seemed to have some bad premonitions from getting the information.
Qiao Ji said seriously: "If the newly emerged genre really has any collusion with the lower plane, then it's better to leave it to other druid sects and those kind god churches for a headache! We can't get involved in the Anxi Forest and the nearby areas. I think the trouble now is probably to worry about the revenge of the Stahlch Pennsellers! After all, a 6-ring druid who is less than 30 years old, even if he is not the young leader in that genre, he may have the identity of the Star of the Sky!"
"That's right, even a group like the Stahlchpensers who pay attention to the prejudice of the weak will not let their organization suffer such great losses. The problem is that those guys are keen on protecting their lives, even in battles. They rarely make actions to die together. They believe that the purpose of the battle is to keep themselves alive, and as long as they survive, there is always a way to eliminate the enemy. People like this will not fight for others, so as long as we can show our strength, the other party will not do anything at all." Viscount Bolum gave Georgia a reassurance.
"I would be fine if this is true! Speaking of strength, my father, please check this plan for any missing parts. I am going to train now. After all, only by working hard to improve our own strength is the matter we can truly grasp in our own hands, right?" As he said that, Georgie handed the roll of parchment in his hand to the left front of Viscount Borham. He immediately left the room with rapid steps without looking back.
"I said, I'm still on vacation now! Why don't you understand the hard work of me this year at all!" Viscount Borham said in the room, scratching his little fingertips.
Perhaps it was because of the unexpected major sacrifice that had been exciting to Georgie. This made him seem to have spent a lot of training during this period. Before he just returned to the Viscount, who was in Borham, he became the best man to take over his job.
Our Viscount seems to be a little amused and wailed - he really just left the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den! Of course, in the world before traveling through time, this idea is often called - a bitch is pretentious. If he is really left alone for the first half of a year, he will immediately find a way to highlight his presence. Just like some senior executives who complain in public are virtuous, of course this is also a part of human nature!
The afternoon training ground was full of heat that was burned by the sun for most of the day. It was the ground burned by the scorching sun, and it was like a red iron plate radiating heat upwards. It was a bit like the fried pork chop made in Western fast food. It can be said that both sides were heated at the same time.
However, Qiao Ji was not affected at all and was sweating here. Of course, the sweat was just a little bit of cow sweat. He had already reached the point where the cold and heat were invincible, and the reason why he sweated in such an uneven weather was more because of the moves he was practicing now.
After continuous practice, "Cuiyu Slash" is a move that uses his own will to interfere with reality. Qiao Ji found that his previous understanding of it seemed to be a bit biased.
It is not just a simple reason for causing mental damage, but it is just in line with what Qiao Ji had always thought of as a way to enter the gap with no thickness. With the ability to be finely shortlisted, he can detect the weaknesses on the enemy's body and even on the armor scales.
You can easily cut through all the protection of the enemy blocking your face, and truly achieve the point where you have room for ease. Once you reach the realm described in the book, you can really ignore all the protection ability and directly cause direct damage to the other party's physical body.
To put it another way, it is an alternative weakened version of the "Straight Death Demon Eye". The out-of-date targets only the opponent's protection ability, forcing the opponent to dodge with his agility.
"Damn it! It's always a little bit short." Qiao Ji, who finally failed, called out with great discomfort. He twisted his neck and inserted the sword in his hand back to the weapon stand on the side of the training ground.
‘I have shown considerable talent on the “Nightmare Sword·Green Jade”. But why can’t Qiao Ji make progress smoothly with “Green Jade Sword”? You must know that you can already get started with the “Nightmare Sword·Green Jade” in a deeper stage!’ Qiao Ji stood on the side of the martial arts field and thought about it without any concerns about the scorching sun in summer.
The so-called "Nightmare Sword Red Jade" aims to read the opponent's defense, find the gaps in the action, and predict the opponent's actions. After a brief thought, you immediately find the most deadly position.
It is the favorite ending technique of the Steel Soul Sect. By consciously studying the opponent's movements and postures, users can find the most accurate attack points and issue decisive attacks.
Like "Nightmare Sword·Green Jade", he takes the opponent's flaws in his actions and behaviors as his starting point. Of course, unlike "Nightmare Sword·Green Jade", the purpose of "Nightmare Sword·Green Jade" is not to seize the fleeting fighter opportunity, but to wait for the opponent to reveal his flaws to give him a fatal blow.
‘But according to theory, analyzing the weakness of the other party’s actions seems to be much lower than analyzing physical weaknesses. The biggest possibility that I fail to practice may be mental deficiencies.’ Qiao Ji seemed to have made an assumption for his current strange situation.
If these moves are divided like spells, "Green Jade Slash" belongs to the 2-ring moves, while "Nightmare Sword and Red Jade" belongs to the fourth ring. This situation like the second ring has not been mastered but the fourth ring has been initially introduced, it does seem a bit strange.
Qiao Ji, who was sitting on the bed that night, began to visualize as usual. Perhaps it was because of the failure during the day that he was a little restless. Or maybe his desire for spiritual promotion made him a little anxious. His first visualization failed in so many years.
'It seems that it has been quite unhappy recently! I thought I could have condensed a star god in the sea of consciousness again 6 days ago. As a result, there was always a chasm that I could not cross in front of me!' Qiao Ji really started scratching my head. 'Can it be that the progress of the past period was too fast and I had consumed all my previous accumulation?'
It seemed that when it was about to shake, Qiao Ji began to comfort herself, "I think I have worked diligently for so many years to cultivate myself and cultivate my character. It is not easy to reach this spiritual state at this age. You can't expect so much in life. It is not a good thing to be too greedy and aggressive."
‘Wait a minute, cultivate one's character, cultivate one's character. The problem is that it lies in cultivating one's character. The "Doumu Yuanjun's visualization method" focuses on one change and one's character. Cultivating one's character highlights one's character and one's character while suppressing the other. This method is inconsistent with the martial arts from the root! No wonder this situation occurs now.’ After thinking it through, Qiao Ji immediately began to prepare to start from this aspect.
Of course, the habits over the years have not been so easy to change. Now we can only start with preliminary self-suggestion - now we start to diagnose evil through dialectical observation.
Even real heroes are not flawless. They often dare to face their own shortcomings. Through dialectical view, they clearly understand that the so-called "evil" is not all evil, but have a good side: pride makes people stronger, jealousy makes people more progress, anger makes people break through the limits, greed makes people dare to pursue beautiful things, laziness makes people retreat, lust makes people discover the beauty of others, and proper indulgence can keep themselves in a comfortable state.
That night, Qiao Ji slept the sweetest in this period of time.
But just as it was dawn, and it was not yet time to get up. Viscount Borham's voice came from outside Joggy's door: "Joggy, get up quickly. Something really happened this time."
