Chapter 655: The Will to Power
For Liu Xiao, justice? evil? has no definition for a long time.
Evil Origin sent people to hunt him down, but what about the human order? Isn’t it the same?
Comparatively speaking, Order is even more abominable. He at least killed the members of Evil Origin, and the other party sent people to recover the situation. This is excusable. Look at what the garrison did.
Not only did he not commit any crime, but he was actually helping the tribe in Shelter City. What was the result?
The so-called justice is just a hypocritical mask. Under the mask, there is still an ugly face that is selfish and arbitrary.
Everyone and every force is moving forward towards their own goals. There is no need to let others judge the merits and demerits. After all, the path under your feet is yours.
It was precisely with the reference of Eyuan that Liu Xiao followed up with a series of operations.
As he said, he wanted to give human order a chance, a chance to correct and measure right and wrong. If order is a scale, one end is the inherent rules and formulas, doubts and uneasiness, and the other end is himself, a person.
He is stronger than when he escaped from the fan ring. He has a holy beast and can stop the tide of ferocious beasts by himself.
Let those people judge whether it is light or serious.
Therefore, there is a story about the mourning bird appearing in Suzaku City and telling mankind what is happening on the Yunlan Ladder.
Here, I have to intervene.
In fact, the white-haired old bird never left the black egg. This mourning bird is actually a strange beast with a unified consciousness but different and similar bodies.
Lao Baimao did not say exactly how many mourning birds were active in Sloan's world, nor did he want to answer where the subject's consciousness was.
Anyway, this ghost is very evil. Fortunately, it does not lie. When it encounters something that it cannot or does not want to say, it will remain silent, but as long as it is spoken, it must be true.
Liu Xiao himself had already predicted the outcome.
The swarm of ferocious beasts actually does no harm to the ruling class, or authority, such as the Holy Inquisition. Countless tribesmen and scattered city-states, whether for their own survival or for the benefit of the race, still have
The ability to surround and kill the vicious tide as it passes through.
As for the losses like the New Moon destroying the city, in the final analysis, they are all within control.
Those in power always look at the overall situation and the bottom line. On the premise that the bottom line is not touched and the overall situation is not affected, a little loss can itself be regarded as one of the laws of nature.
Even if a disaster can stop the tide, so what?
For the human order, after knowing Liu Xiao's specific location and actions, it is nothing more than a question of three choices: accept, ignore, or kill.
No matter which outcome it is, Liu Xiao has plans and preparations, and he can also figure out the other party's attitude and intentions, and even deeper factors, through the results.
If you make a mistake in your judgment and someone from the Holy Inquisition peacefully contacts you and accepts you as a disaster under certain restrictions, then the other party should give you some symbolic support and nominal compensation. Can you return to the inside of the fan ring?
Not to mention it for the moment, it will at least be similar to how the garrison army treats the tribesmen in Windshelter City.
If it is ignored, it proves that the Holy Inquisition has adhered to its own principles. The racial order only exists within the fan ring. A disaster, causing trouble and rain in the wilderness, has nothing to do with anyone. You can do whatever you want.
If that were the case, Liu Xiao would look at them with a high regard. They have principles and a bottom line. At least to a certain extent, they are fair.
Unfortunately, the final result is the third type.
Even if you are far away from the fan ring, you will still kill yourself.
What does this mean and what does it foreshadow?
Is it just because I know that I have an accurate location on the Yunlan Ladder, so I have to send people to kill people and silence them?
No, it's not that simple.
Because an attack and killing far away from the place of order is inherently risky. Not only does it deviate from the rules set by the order, but the target is also a disaster of the same race who has contributed nothing to the fan ring and has no stain in the past.
What prompted them to make such an urgent decision must be the act of blocking the evil tide itself.
Perhaps, the existence of hordes of ferocious beasts has become one of the means by which the Holy Judgment enslaves and controls the entire race. Perhaps, when a disaster becomes a hero in the hearts of humans in the outer ring, it will shake the original pattern of rights and interests. Perhaps, a
Disasters that can grow rapidly through fierce tides must not be tolerated, or perhaps there are other reasons beyond one's own understanding.
Before everything is spread, and the situation is still under control, getting rid of yourself is a necessary option.
When Cézanne's light boat appeared at its resting place, Liu Xiao just smiled coldly.
Before the identity of the disaster was discovered, Liu Xiao always believed that the group of people who stood at the top of the power of the Sloan race would be wise and pure. After all, they were using the simplest rules to restrict such a huge territory and people.
.
But in fact, the pursuit of power, the desire to rule everything, and the desire to conquer everything that hinders "self-expansion" are still deeply rooted.
Nietzsche once said that there are only two original wills of human beings, the will to life and the will to rights. The will to life is the desire for survival and reproduction, while the will to power is manifested as a desire to pursue wealth, power, rights, and servitude.
Etc., etc., they are all manifestations of the will to power,
The will to power is also the highest standard of life and moral norms. The law of the jungle is morality, aggression and plunder is life, and war is the highest realization of "will to power".
Even though Sloan's humans have long lives and more lofty goals, they seem to have not escaped the mental prison of being human.
In other words, the so-called intelligent beings are nothing more than this.
The reason why the mourning bird was allowed to deliver biased information was Liu Xiao's decision after careful consideration.
If a disaster can be prevented by one's own efforts, it may not only be the saints, but if the combat power here is described as too strong, it will make it difficult for the Holy Inquisitor to make a decision.
A double disaster plus a holy beast is neither salty nor bland, and it is logical, so it is more reasonable.
Of course, Liu Xiao had to waste all his strength to persuade the mourning bird to make such a fuss.
The white-haired old bird also had principles. If Black Egg hadn't relied on Liu Xiao's blood, it would never have given in. In the end, Liu Xiao persuaded it by secretly exchanging ideas.
In the first war against the swarm of ferocious beasts, it was only the Behemoth Holy Beast and himself. Whether it was successful in the end, this is a fact.
Therefore, the message conveyed by the mourning bird is that a human disaster and a sacred beast have blocked the evil tide on the Yunlan Ladder.
The old bird has a clear conscience and everyone is happy.
As for why the descendants of Kunlun were involved in the end, it was because the people of Suzque City wanted to confirm the identity of this disaster. They knew that Liu Xiao had gone to the wilderness.
After confirming with Liu Xiao, the mourner gave a vague answer. After all, with its eyesight, it was impossible not to see the physical details of human disasters clearly. If it were not told, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
What's more, the rewards given by Suzaku City are not generally high.
Of course, Liu Xiao, as the person involved, would not know that, just because of his status as a descendant of Kunlun, such a casual answer would stir up a bigger storm.
So much so that the Kunlun people had to get involved.
Liu Xiao doesn't know how to play political tricks, but he has no shortage of disgusting skills.
On Canglan Sky Island, blood servants have arrived in the surrounding city-states.
Now that the Holy Inquisitor has made a choice, he must pay a price for it. Before he is not strong enough, what can cause the greatest harm to them with the least cost and the lowest danger is to let all Wenziwu know what happened in
A terrible thing.
...
Before the mourning bird arrives.
Liu Xiao's daily life is still very regular. He always maintains the continuous tense when it comes to eating. A large number of corpses of beast masters and lord-level ferocious beasts ensure his food supply. In addition, there are space sealing techniques and blood source energy.
Continuous practice of skills and sword handling.
Based on the fact that in future battles, the enemies you face will no longer be a bunch of miscellaneous fish. If you make a slight mistake, you may be doomed. In a close combat mode such as sword dance, the risk is too high.
The space sealing technique is a means of saving life, who knows who uses it. The blood source skills are more valuable in being vicious and changeable. Needless to say, the sword control is mainly about elegance, persistence and surprise.
These three combine with each other and complement each other with the powerful blood corpse army.
During this period, the corpses who searched the ferocious wasteland would also bring back some surprises from time to time, which improved Liu Xiao's spirit body in both energy level and magnitude.
Today, his body is close to the threshold of a sage, and he is only one step away from the third level of energy level, the spiritual crystal.
After having the mourning bird, life became a little more fun.
This old bird knows too many facts. It's like a white-haired version of One Hundred Thousand Whys. As long as it's willing to tell you, it doesn't involve its own secrets, and you can give enough compensation, it's basically all.
Can give a satisfactory answer.
For example, the magic circle that condensed spiritual energy for Mo Li actually discovered the wonderful secret. It was precisely based on the information provided by the funeral that Liu Xiao was able to recreate the complete spirit gathering magic circle.
As Liu Xiao's problems became larger and larger, and the secrets involved became deeper and deeper, the prices offered by the old bird began to become more and more outrageous, and some of them did not exist in the nearby area at all.
