Habetlot took the initiative to explain. Although her smile was cute, it felt a little empty for some reason.
"Fairies are not as complex as humans. Humans have no 'purpose'. Their hearts are usually full of various thoughts. Even if they have evil thoughts, they can be suppressed by good intentions. But fairies are different."
"Fairies are creatures with a purpose. Their purpose is the compass of life. They will live for their own purpose from beginning to end. There are no distracting thoughts at all, so their thoughts are usually very simple."
"——Simply do evil, simply do good. There are no shackles, no collision and struggle of thoughts, no satisfaction from doing good, and no sense of guilt from doing evil."
"Once goblins lose their purpose, they will gradually forget everything about themselves, including their names, and eventually become Morse. In this case, you should have some understanding of the purity of goblins, right?"
Jiang Li fell into silence.
Once it loses its purpose, the leprechaun will turn into a Morse?
Is that so?
So Kurma became Morse because she felt that she couldn't get him and was in despair because she couldn't achieve her own goal?
This was the first time Jiang Li had seen such an extreme creature.
Living only for your own purpose throughout your life, without any other thoughts, it is easy to embark on a path that ordinary people think is heinous!
There is no moral concept.
There is no restraint of conscience.
"The goblin just now, obviously Boggart ordered the goblins and humans to be responsible for harvesting half of the wheat fields, but she lost her enthusiasm in a few minutes, because her purpose itself was not farming. To her, harvesting the wheat fields was just a way of harvesting.
It’s just for fun, so it’s okay to be lazy, right?”
Her husband was obviously very strong, but his body was extremely weak. It was not because he was exploited, but because he was tired out of his sense of responsibility to feed the people in the city.
Even so, he was still killed by Kurma.
"If the goblin is so obsessed with his purpose, why do he still get married?"
"That's just playing, just pursuing enjoyment."
Habetlot shrugged, and the smile on his face became increasingly hollow.
"What is popular now? Is that interesting? Where is the interesting part? Because of this kind of thinking, goblins will pursue the current fashion, but it just happens that marriage is popular in Sheffield right now."
Looking for popularity?
Goblins are like human beings controlled by capital, mindlessly pursuing the so-called "popularity".
It's just that humans need to be brainwashed by public opinion to pursue fashion, but goblins don't. They actively pursue interesting fashion just because they are playful.
And as to why marriage is so popular in Sheffield?
"This is all Boggart's fault. He is always keen on marrying brides. As the lord of Sheffield, the goblins will naturally imitate him subconsciously!"
Halbert curled his lips and passed the blame to Boggart.
"Well, anyway, as long as Matthew didn't see what happened just now, we'll be relieved."
She whispered softly, then turned and walked out of the alley.
Thinking of the previous performance in the wheat field, Jiang Li understood.
The reason why Habertlot dragged Mash away was to prevent Mash from seeing the goblins killing each other?
You can't tell from her appearance, but she is a gentle fairy.
Jiang Li did not stop Halbertlot from leaving. She seemed to know many things, but Jiang Li's mind was very confused now and he also had many things to think about.
…………
The Children of Prophecy soon became a popular topic.
Boggart spared no effort to promote public opinion, and Matthew was too kind to refuse the goblins' request and went to help them tide over their difficulties. Her reputation suddenly became famous.
Not limited to Sheffield, passing merchant fairies also spread her fame to southern cities.
Jiang Li didn't pay attention to these things.
These days, he has been observing the goblins in Sheffield.
The more he observed, the more vividly Haberthroth's words came into his mind.
The goblins are indeed very keen on popularity. They originally advocated marriage, but once the Son of Prophecy became famous, they turned around and threw away their married wives and husbands, and instead pursued the popularity of the Son of Prophecy.
I didn't feel anything was wrong at all, no sense of guilt or guilt.
Abandoning family members is as natural as eating and drinking, and it does not cause the slightest fluctuation in their hearts.
A few days later.
"It really doesn't work..."
Jiang Li stood on the top of the castle, and the condescending terrain allowed him to take in all the human faces in Sheffield.
That's why he felt it couldn't be done.
“Where is my city?”
Boggart heard what he was saying to himself, and walked over with a frown on his face, his face full of displeasure.
He thinks very highly of himself. Although he lost to Woodworth and Spriggan in the fight for the identity of clan leader and lord, he feels that he is no worse than those two people. It's just that he was unlucky and was betrayed twice.
That’s all!
To say that the city he ruled was not good would not be to say that he was inferior to Woodworth and Spriggan?
"I originally wanted to build Sheffield into a forward base for the resistance against the Queen's Army."
The words that came out of Jiang Li's mouth shocked Boggart.
WTF?
Aren't you a princess who was canonized by the Queen herself?
As a result, he was actually planning such a thing secretly?
What kind of evil concubine brings disaster to the country and the people!
"But after my observations over the past few days, Sheffield may not be suitable."
Jiang Li pondered.
Under the Boggart's dissatisfied and puzzled gaze, he muttered to himself and gave the answer.
"It would be fine if the resistance forces could compete with the Queen's Army, but now the resistance forces are far weaker than the Queen's Army. Whether it is the six major clans or the three fairy knights, ordinary people cannot fight against them."
"Under such circumstances, there must be unified and lofty ideological guidance, otherwise the resistance will end up in disarray."
"But goblins have no thoughts at all. At least most of the goblins in Sheffield are only interested in pleasure. They have no great and lofty ideals, nor the determination to resolutely resist the queen... Sheffield's resistance is destined to be impossible to succeed.
"
In Jiang Li's eyes, Sheffield's resistance was no different than failure.
This is the conclusion he drew based on the lessons of pan-human history.
Boggart clenched his fists fiercely.
"The trouble of thinking without thinking is dead. That kind of boring stuff doesn't matter at all! In a war, whoever has more cards in his hand and is stronger will be the victor!"
Is my Sheffield so bad in your eyes?
If he couldn't beat it, he would have scratched it with his claws now!
