Chapter 288: Argos (5)(1/2)
William didn't expect the being who called himself Argos to speak so directly, and actually stated his purpose of making friends without any concealment.
If a human were to say this, William would have to slap him to death.
But now the person who said this was an "inhuman" alien, but William had nothing to say. There is no love without reason in this world, nor hatred without reason, nor friends without reason.
Whether you make friends because you are bored or lonely, or you make friends because you want something, they are essentially the same. Of course, if you just want to put a few knives in your friend's ribs, then just pretend that I didn't say it, and you don't have it at all.
Treat each other as a friend, but as a pig or sheep to be slaughtered.
William did not resent the monster leader's straightforward and almost transactional approach to making friends. Just like the interaction between humans and animals, only through some kind of transactional effort between the two parties can initial trust be established.
.
Here is a misunderstanding about making friends. Many people think that when I make a friend, I have paid a lot for him (her) and he (she) owes me a favor, so the other person will not (sorryly) harm me.
I believe we are true friends who treat each other with sincerity.
Don't be stupid! Man! As the saying goes, a friend of yours will definitely want to kill you.
Some people may ask why, is the other party so heartless?
Of course, this is not entirely the case. This involves the core of our national culture and the most important communication truth between people. Read the biographies of the four great assassins of the pre-Qin Dynasty. If you can't appreciate the truth, you can only
Said you deserved the backlash.
You treat me as a nobleman of the country, and I will repay you as a nobleman of the country.
A man will die for a man who knows himself, and a woman will live for a man who pleases her.
These are the two core sentences expressed in the Assassin's Biographies.
The most important thing in making friends is equality. This equality can be reflected in status, wealth, talents, and even personality, moral concepts, and life values.
You have just met a person, and then you treat him/her well regardless of anything, seemingly without any reason, without asking for anything in return, and the other person can't repay you with anything, except him or herself.
If the other person is of the opposite sex, then you are trying to figure out the other person's body, and you are despicable!
But if the other person is of the same sex, what do you want to do? What do you want? Do you want the other person to be your Nie Zheng, Yu Rang, or Zhuan Zhu? The key is whether you are worthy of the other person entrusting their life to you?
If you understand this, you won't be too surprised when you face a backstab.
Of course, this does not mean that friends should not give without thinking of anything in return, but the order must be clearly defined. You must first become true confidants, and then you can give without any consequences.
"Being courteous for nothing is a traitor or a thief." This sentence is not only a truth, but also a real human nature.
Of course, it’s not that there are no born bad types. Scientifically speaking, it’s called antisocial personality. If you meet such a friend, you can only blame your own blindness. We don’t need to teach you how to judge good people and bad people. Everyone knows it.
If identified.
But you have to play "I am free to make friends with whom I want, and no one has the right to interfere." When something goes wrong in the end and you suffer a loss, don't complain in vain.
Stay close to a gentleman, stay far away from a villain.
Our ancestors spent countless blood, tears and lives summarizing the truth. If you don't listen to it, who can you blame?
I have said so much off-topic nonsense, but it is actually to illustrate one thing: sometimes the simplest way is the easiest way to make the most intimate friends.
The communication between William and Kajal at this time was exactly the simplest form of friendship.
Kagar is in trouble and needs William's help. At the same time, Kagar is also very talented. He is an Argos, even if it is just a young Argos, it is still an Argos, so William has an acceptance card.
Possibility of Gal.
Of course, it is only possible. In the next contact between the two parties, Kagar needs to show his talents and values in order to truly win the respect of William and gain the qualification to form an alliance with him.
When Kagar and William unanimously decided to have face-to-face contact next, Finya happened to kill the hobgoblin war chief. The poor hobgoblin leader failed not because of its own strength, but because of its lack of strength during the battle.
He rashly used abilities that he was not familiar with, resulting in undue low-level mistakes.
After the death of the hobgoblin war chief, the morale of the remaining hobgoblins suddenly dropped. They planned to seek help from their non-hobgoblin monster companions to fight against the murderous Fenya.
Unfortunately, what greeted the hobgoblins was not friendly help, but the sword minions who turned against them. The monsters loyal to Kagar brazenly attacked their former comrades. They received direct orders from Kagar to kill these hobgoblins.
Erwuzi was completely killed.
However, after counting the heads of the hobgoblins later, everyone (monsters) discovered that one hobgoblin was missing. The whereabouts of the dragon-veined hobgoblin that lured William and his party here were unknown. Judging from the situation, he must have sneaked away secretly.
Except for the hobgoblin, the other monsters are still very loyal to Kagar. At least when Kajal ordered them to surround and kill the hobgoblin, almost no monster showed any objection or hesitation. Of course, this is also different from the normal situation of the hobgoblin.
It’s related to the unpopular (weird) mentality in it.
However, when these monsters were restrained from conflicting with William's family, some of them were quite dissatisfied, such as the owlbear and several lions.
The owlbear's dissatisfaction stems from the embarrassment of his companions after being defeated by Fenia. Of course, these big guys are also easy to deal with. They are all honest children, and a beating will make them honest.
Only the human body lion is more troublesome. The body shape of this monster is quite similar to that of a centaur. The upper half is a human head, upper limbs and torso, and the waist gradually turns into a feline torso and limbs.
The human parts of these lions are all handsome men and beautiful women with outstanding appearance, which allows them to possess powerful force and at the same time, they can also use some spells or magic-like spells that have the effect of confusing or inducing, of course, mainly against humans or those who are related to humans.
Opponents with the same aesthetic work wonders.
From a human perspective, lions are undoubtedly extremely evil creatures, because these guys like to eat humans, and in a sense, they can even be regarded as the natural enemies of humans.
In fact, newborn lions are ugly, like a clumsy lion monster. But every time they kill or eat a human, the appearance of the human body will become more attractive, and the lion body will also change.
Gotta be strong.
A lion that is powerful and handsome enough must be a demon that cannibalize countless people, at least for humans. Of course, a lion does not only eat humans. When there is no human food reserve, some animals or other
Humanoids are also included in their recipes.
For a lion, ordinary animal flesh and blood is equivalent to dry wowotou, the flesh and blood of most humanoid creatures is equivalent to fine flour steamed buns, and the flesh and blood of elves, dwarves, and humans are delicacies such as shark fins and abalone.
The lions under Kagar usually eat quite well, and their "thin-noodle buns" are basically never cut off. After all, there are countless humanoid monsters in the ruins of Yulas.
But luxury-grade ingredients were in short supply. Even when they found the Tooth Festival, the ingredients they got were mostly from the skinny and wizened wilderness remnants.
For lions, those with tender skin and tender flesh like William's family, and even three tender cubs among them, are delicacies delivered to their doorsteps, trying to make them give up the delicious food on their lips.
How can the lions be willing to coexist peacefully with them?
Therefore, these man-eating demons were very unwilling to wander around William's family, making a "pattering" sound from time to time, which was the sound of these guys sucking saliva.
In fact, before the lion puts its prey on the chopping board, any behavior they perform is very confusing in the eyes of humans.
As the saying goes, a good-looking vase can take advantage of anything. Except for William, a perceptive person who is never confused by the enemy's appearance, almost no one can feel that these handsome and charming lions are almost useless.
Disguised malice (from the suppression of perceived attributes).
For example, the lion trying to get close to Xiao Mishael has a furry body as strong as a lion on its lower body, and a charming man with eight-pack abs and a handsome and unruly appearance on its upper body.
When it smiles, it reveals four teeth as white as glaze, except that the teeth are a bit sharp, but it makes the temperament of the lion even more charming, just like the little tiger teeth add to the flavor of a beautiful woman.
There is no little girl who will not be intoxicated by the appearance of this lion, including the little girl.
So when the human lion quietly stretched out its long-clawed hands towards little Misha, these silly girls would only giggle like "chichi" and did not realize that the danger was approaching.
However, this male lion's evil plan did not succeed, because it ignored that there were vigilant shepherds guarding the fat lambs.
William's cold eyes made the human lion feel wary, and it temporarily retreated. But soon the man-eating demon came back with two more "outstanding" helpers.
They were two female lions. Not only did they have the shapely figures of female lions, but they also had the looks of the most stunning beauties, especially those parts that represented female characteristics. They were basically exposed to the broad daylight without any cover-up.
under.
This car... is so big!
This lamp... is so white!
Both William and Anadol felt dizzy at this sudden "welfare".
The two female lions came to William without any pretense, with friendly smiles on their beautiful faces, and their feet took real cat steps. Every step was so graceful and touching.
The two men were like young men visiting a brothel for the first time. Both of their eyes were transfixed, staring blankly at what they were seeing. Anadol even drooled from what he saw.
It's a pity that the target of these two wonderful lions is William, otherwise the mage of lust and soul-granting would have fallen at the feet of the lioness.
When the two female lions reached out to William's almost dull face with their clawed hands, William also stretched out his "sinful" hands and patted the lion's chest twice, as if
Very frivolous.
In the end, the claws of the two beautiful female lions failed to fall on William. They covered the place where William had patted them, looked at him in horror, and then fell to the ground in pain, twitching several times.
There was no life left at all.
This sudden change shocked all the people and monsters around. The scene that was full of beautiful scenery a moment ago suddenly turned into a crematorium-style scene.
The first person to react to this incident was not the monsters, but William's human pig teammates. Anadol shouted angrily and with a look of pity: "William! Damn you guy! You thug! What's the matter?
How could you harm such a wonderful and miraculous creature! Damn it! I curse you!"
A rip-off guy! William ignored the irritated mage and turned his attention to the male lion.
The male lion was not angry or scared, he just asked in a graceful manner: "Delicious human being, what did you do to my sisters?"
William shrugged and said: "As you can see, I didn't do anything excessive. But the hearts of these two beautiful ladies were broken. Maybe they suffered from heartache."
The male lion shook his head and said: "Impossible! We never suffer from heartache, human, I suspect you are lying."
William said with a smile: "Maybe, who knows. Big cat, are you sure that your brothers and sisters will not suffer from heartache? Maybe you are hiding your illness and avoiding medical treatment. Don't you have any pain in your conscience?
"
The lion body said with great conviction: "No! I am very sure that my brothers and sisters and I have never had any pain in our hearts! Delicious and cunning human beings, I suspect you just used some despicable spell to cruelly hurt my heart.
