464 Not worth saving(1/2)
The sun is gradually going down.
The sky was covered by sunset, making the sunlight shining on the earth become softer and not as fierce as it was during the day.
Rige and Artoria walked along the coast together, listening to the sound of the waves and the sea breeze, they felt so comfortable.
However, neither of them spoke, nor turned their eyes to each other. They just walked quietly without saying a word.
This state has been maintained for a long time.
The two of them have been in this state since they came out of Eckert's workshop.
Li Ge did not take the initiative to speak.
Artoria didn't know what to say.
As a result, the two of them became like this. For a moment, it seemed as if they had nothing to say.
Of course, this silence does not make people feel uncomfortable. Instead, it feels like they are thinking seriously and carefully considering what they want to say next. It is like an extremely tense debate competition is about to begin, which makes people feel that their bodies are full of energy.
gained strength.
Finally, Artoria spoke first.
"So you know about the Child of Prophecy." Arturia smiled stupidly and said in a haha manner: "I thought you saved me because you didn't know anything."
After being silent for so long, the first topic Arturia raised was this.
This made Li Ge feel dumbfounded.
"Is there any difference?" Li Ge didn't look at Artoria, he just stared ahead and continued to move forward while saying: "Whether you are the child of the prophecy or not, I will rescue you in that situation.
,So, you don’t need to worry about this.”
This is the truth.
Artoria saw through this instantly, and couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
However, on the surface, Artoria looked nonchalant.
"After all, you are a good person, and you will definitely not leave it alone." Arturia held the staff of choice in both hands, followed Rige step by step, and whispered: "How could a good person like you actually do this?"
It's a weird thing to say this country isn't worth saving."
This is Artoria's second concern after the identity issue just now.
She really didn't expect that someone would say such a thing.
Ever since Artoria could remember, everyone around her had been telling her that she was the child of the prophecy and was destined to defeat the queen, crown her as the true king, save the goblins, and save the country. Therefore, this was the first time that someone was there.
She was told in front of her that this country was not worth saving and that she did not need to follow any mission.
This kind of comment was quite new to Artoria, and it also made her feel strange.
But Li Ge actually said so.
"First of all, I'm not a good person. At least what you said that I won't die without saving my life is absolutely wrong." Li Ge said without looking back: "I'm not the kind of person who sees anyone in trouble.
People who will rescue without hesitation. For example, if I were you, I would definitely not have any attachment to the village of Tintagel, let alone being thrown into a dungeon.
In this situation, I have to stop others from drawing swords to kill the goblins in the village. I will never be so kind."
Artoria knew that Li Ge was referring to what happened when he met the goblins of the Wind Clan in the dungeon.
At that time, seeing Li Ge preparing to draw his sword to attack, Artoria relied on her unique "eyes" to see through Li Ge's self-confidence that he would kill.
If this man pulls out his sword, those goblins from the Wind Clan will definitely be hacked to death.
With such a sense of certainty, Artoria didn't even think about it, and directly called out to Lige, asking him to stop.
Even though she was imprisoned in a dungeon by the villagers and prepared to be executed by the execution team, Artoria was still willing to save the goblins in the village. Li Ge made it clear that if it were him, he would definitely do it.
Less than.
"Who am I to be a good person like this? You are a good person, right? And a bad one at that!" Li Ge said: "Based on this, your point of view is wrong from the beginning, do you understand?"
After saying that, Li Ge stopped and stopped walking forward.
"ah!"
Artoria, who almost hit Li Ge's back, suddenly screamed in surprise, stopped quickly, and braked in time.
Li Ge turned around and looked at Artoria.
"Secondly, I don't think there is anything wrong with what I said." Li Ge looked at Artoria and said, "Let me ask you, do you think this country is worth saving?"
This question directly stopped Artoria.
Is this country worth saving?
Artoria really doesn’t know.
Before that, Arturia had rarely left Tintagel. Although she had seen a lot of fairies, they were mostly fairies from within Tintagel, and she had not seen many fairies outside.
In other words, although Arturia knows that she is in the Fairy Country, what is this country like? Even if she has seen it, where has she seen it all?
Since she has not seen everything and does not know the entire face of this country, how can Artoria be able to boast and comment on whether this country is worth saving?
Li Ge seemed to have noticed this.
"What I'm going to say next is to talk about this from my perspective, which is a human perspective."
Li Ge made this statement first and then began to speak.
"For humans, fairies are actually a very terrifying existence."
There is no doubt about this.
This is not only because goblins are inherently more powerful than humans, nor is it just because humans in this country are dominated by goblins.
The real terror of goblins, as far as Li Ge is concerned, lies in their thoughts.
This kind of creature is different from human beings, and its world view, outlook on life and values are all different from humans.
"Humans have their own code of conduct and their own moral bottom line, but goblins don't have that."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Humans know what to do and what not to do, but fairies don't know."
"Humans will know how to restrain themselves and influence others, but goblins will not."
"The fairies I know are just like this. They should be no different from the ones in your impression, right?"
In response to Rige's question, Artoria chose to remain silent.
She really couldn't refute these.
Indeed, the goblin is exactly what Li Ge mentioned.
Take the previously mentioned incident of goblin pranks in Scotland. In the goblin legends in that area, there are mentions of some goblin pranks.
For example, they can make people who happen to pass by lose their memories.
For example, they will lure children into the forest so that they cannot return home for a week.
For another example, they would replace newborn babies with goblin children, or secretly place some animal carcasses in front of other people's homes to scare humans.
In the eyes of goblins, these pranks are just pranks, just a small joke. They do it just for fun. They just do it for fun and to have fun watching humans panic. But for humans, these jokes of theirs are...
But it is an out-and-out crisis.
People who lose their memory will forget all important people and things and become a walking zombie.
When the child who was lured into the forest was found a week later, he had become food for wild beasts, leaving only his corpse.
There are many examples of newborn babies being lost, whose parents cannot find them alive, and who die in despair. People who have animal carcasses secretly placed on their doorsteps will be suspected of being members of a cult, and will be arrested and tortured.
Slander, and eventually run away from other people's rumors. In the mild case, they move to other places, and in the worst case, they become autistic and depressed.
This is called the goblin's prank.
To them, this is just a game, but to humans, it is a matter of life and death.
To them, this is just a fun, but to humans, it is deadly.
Goblins are like this, they have no sense of gain or loss, no thought of importance. They will do something for pure enjoyment, even if it does not bring any profit, as long as it can entertain themselves, they will do it.
The goblins in this country also don't have the same concepts of good and evil as humans.
They are sometimes very kind and will entertain you cordially.
They are sometimes cruel and will twist the heads of people around them without hesitation.
They are moody.
Their temperaments are changeable.
As long as there is a reason, they will even want to attack those close to them with swords, or even torture them to death. This is a goblin.
Because goblins are long-lived and have tenacious vitality, they can survive just by existing there. They can do most things, so they will not work hard and grow, and will not try their best to survive and prosper, and accumulate knowledge.
, will only do things they think are interesting.
What is the saving value of such goblins and the countries where these goblins exist?
"You should also know, right? How selfish goblins are!"
