Unprecedented, a loud shout comparable to the explosion of a cannon almost overturned the tent. Brunhil's high-octave scream made the soldiers behind him look at him with suspicion. Brunhil is known for his strict compliance with military discipline and high quality. It was completely beyond their knowledge that the major would make such a gaffe.
However, this level of impact is nothing compared to the level of horror that Li Lin brought to the elves when he returned to the camp alone, calmly drank a cup of black tea, and announced his extraordinary actions in a very calm and casual tone. what.
"Your Excellency? I would like to confirm what you just said again, is that okay?"
Brunhil's paradoxical tone and stiff expression overflowed with a super strong aura that could not be differentiated or rejected. The wavering dizziness and dissatisfaction that was about to break through the critical point seemed to turn into a violent storm of emotions in the next moment and flooded into the person talking to himself. Supreme Commander.[
Even Tyr, who wanted to remind Brunhil to pay attention to his tone and attitude, wisely chose to give up after being glared at by someone who could eat him raw without seasoning. The elf officers who couldn't interrupt looked at him uneasily. Li Lin, who still showed a cynical and calm smile.
"I gave Roland four days of water and food as an adult, plus necessary equipment, and let him try to survive in the wilderness for seven days."
After letting go of his guilt and uneasiness, and telling what he had done in a very calm and normal manner, Li Lin put down the tea cup that had absorbed the heat with his hands, and spread his hands to make a look of shame. The red-eyed king did not want to live up to himself at all. An act of responsibility means introspection and self-examination.
"Are you serious? Let a boy survive for 7 days in the wild where thieves, wild beasts, and dangerous species are infested, and the temperature drops sharply at night enough to cause frostbite and freeze to death? Please explain to me the reasons and necessity of such a decision, Colonel. .Otherwise, I can only interpret it as a lynching."
"Major Brynhildr, how could you use such a tone towards the colonel? You -"
"It is precisely because he is a colonel that I just spoke like this. It was the colonel who entrusted Roland to my care!"
The fierce look of the lioness guarding her cub forced Tier back, and she realized that her childhood sweethearts also admired Li Lin. If she was not tolerant of her deviant behavior, she would never use such a tough tone. But the tolerance and admiration in the girl's heart were correct. There was a conflict, and Brunhil, who was unable to control his impulse in the conflict and anxiety, cast sharp and clear eyes on Li Lin's face.
"Maybe the colonel has reasons and intentions that he can't tell. But I still hope to get an explanation."
Instead of using "subordinate", which binds the relationship between superiors and subordinates, to refer to oneself as "I", which originates from the individual's own will. The difference in words clearly expresses the fluctuations and subtle changes in stance after the infusion of emotions.
"This is also part of parent-child education. It's just that the current method may be a bit extreme."
His elbows rested on the table, his fingers crossed gracefully and elegantly, and the hands covering his nose blocked the light and line of sight. Under the curtain-like shadow, he could see clearly the lip lines and expressions, and looked directly at Brunhil's excited face with red eyes. A voice that means something.
"The major's ideas and practical performance are certainly correct, and they have a real effect on soothing the child's psychological trauma. This achievement deserves recognition and praise. However, in the future, Roland can only adopt drastic educational methods to adjust. To If you ask why, the reason is very simple - [a matter of time]."
"Time...?"
Responding to Li Lin's explanation with doubtful questions, Brunhil frowned.
"Roland has a great significance on his shoulders, but it is not the top priority. [Finding and welcoming back Gram] is still our top priority mission goal. In order to complete this mission as quickly and perfectly as possible, everyone's efforts and dedication and the unity of all soldiers and even
The belief and determination of all elves are essential prerequisites. Major, you also understand this."
He nodded silently. As an officer close to the core of the upper echelon, Brunhil knew best. The importance of improving the morale of soldiers and strengthening organizational cohesion. He had learned relevant knowledge in the military academy. In daily work and life, Brunhil
I have never neglected relevant matters.
It takes a long time and energy to build, and then it takes more and more long-term costs to maintain it so that it can survive for a long time. If you are careless, small holes will expand into fatal cracks, and the previous hard work will fall apart in the blink of an eye.
Turning into rubble and dust - this is true for tangible things, and physical things are also exceptions.
Any organization needs to gather the intentions of its members, so it will establish relevant rules and regulations to restrict the behavior of members to prevent dispersion. A [secret organization] like VE Company that uses commercial activities as a guise has a disciplinary system because of its secretive characteristics.
The most representative and core part of the increasingly strict system is the reward and punishment system.
"The soldiers of Class 2 have paid the due price for their inappropriate words and deeds. Roland must also accept the corresponding punishment for his wrong attitude and words and deeds at that time. Fair rewards and punishments - this is to maintain the collective operation of the organization and not let soldiers who are born and die
It will lead to the disintegration and collapse of the country, organization, and army. We must keep in mind the basic rules that we must stick to. There will be no exceptions in this matter, whether it is me, you, or Roland. In the current extraordinary period and extraordinary mission
The importance of clearly defining responsibilities and dealing with matters fairly cannot be shaken at all."[
"But Roland is still just a child. It is unrealistic for a child who is only 5 years old and has problems living independently to learn the rules of the army immediately. Moreover, it is not too harsh to give him such a serious treatment for his first offender.
Already?"
"It is true that he is a child, but it is not feasible to use the standards of ordinary children to ask him to have a special status."
Roland is the son of Li Nadu, the leader of the glorious Golden Hen Knights, and he is also the subject of Li Lin's adoption and guardianship.
He is a human child who is about to enter the life of the elves.
"After the legal documents related to the adoption are completed, Roland will officially become the object of my custody, that is, the [adopted son]. Regardless of whether he wants it or not, he will automatically have the status of [organization member]. If he pretended to be like that before,
If he behaves recklessly again after completing the formalities, or even causes something bigger and more outrageous, even I can only obey the unanimous opinion of the majority of members and impose a more severe punishment on him. In order to avoid it.
In such a reversible situation, it is essential to carry out extreme education and relevant training now."
In the world of power struggle, there is no room for a child to act willfully. In the cold confrontation of power, his or her willful behavior will be exploited, exploited, squeezed dry, and eventually eaten to the point where no bones are left.
The conclusion is obvious: in order to survive, Roland must accept this trial.
"However, surviving in the wild for seven days seems too intense. That child-"
A blush of embarrassment and more worry and intolerance flashed across the face of the girl who suddenly realized it. Li Lin's quiet voice cut off Brynhil's slightly overflowing motherly care, and her steel-like hard gaze met the slightly flinching emerald green eyes.
eye.
"Have you ever heard of [the love of a lion for its cubs]? Major Brynhildr."
"Are you referring to the legend that lions only raise cubs that climb up from the cliff? To be honest, I have only heard about it and have never actually seen such a scene."
[After the cubs can run, the leader of the lion pride will take them up the cliff, push all the cubs off the cliff, then wait on the cliff for the cubs to climb up, and choose the one that can climb up to raise.]
The older generation of elves will describe such stories with solemn and deep expressions. After processing and modifying the language, it will appear more realistic. Not given to those who have a good understanding of the living habits of various wild beasts and dangerous species and have rich hunting experience.
Brunhil had never seen lions living in the plains climb up the cliffs to do such emotional and troublesome things. She had only seen and remembered how the lions gave birth to a new leader, and then how to deal with the legacy of the previous leader.
.
Compared to fabricated stories with extremely obvious traces of imagination, real nature is always more bloody, cruel, and far from real.
"Regardless of the authenticity of the story, its important implications and inspiration for children's education are still worthy of recognition."
Under the palms with fingers intertwined, it is difficult to distinguish emotions, and the voice that grasps the ups and downs of thoughts comes from the shadow like a mask.
"[Don't pamper your children], [appropriate setbacks can make children grow faster], the most important of which is [parental love is not limited to protection], [even if you fall off the cliff, you still hope that your children will have the courage to climb up]"
——It sounds terrible, but Roland needs this kind of education now. He must learn to be independent earlier than children of the same age. For this, he must first learn how to coexist. At least not worse than Nidhogg."
Li Lin also has Nidhogg, who is considered a child according to the racial life cycle, but the normal cold and arrogant impression of [Child Adjutant-sama] is much different from that of Roland, a brat with a bad temper and a stubborn temper.
Compared with the ancient species, the biggest and most essential difference between the intelligent species is not the superficial difference in life span, size, appearance, strength, etc., but the two points of [sense of time] and [survival alone] are the two groups.
The source of the gap between living styles and maturity levels.
Dragons are more indifferent to their companions and relatives than wild beasts. They will not feel lonely even if they live alone for hundreds or thousands of years. Apart from mating and reproduction, things like communication and social interaction between the same clans are basically non-existent.
Today's dragons even show a lack of interest in the important racial mission of reproducing offspring. The resulting problem of low birthrate has reached a critical level. In a few hundred years, the dragon race will probably become extinct on its own and become a legend.
