"Sir." Compared with the other silver-bearded dwarves, Freya knew when to advance and when to retreat. She probably knew that a certain someone didn't like titles that gave people a feeling of superiority, so she copied Uzov's way of addressing him. She asked seriously: "In your opinion, what do you think the future of the silver-bearded dwarves will be?"
Seeing the female dwarf, who was always smiling and never angry, pull a rare face and ask a very serious question. Lin also knew that it wasn't easy to fool her at this time, so he asked back: "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"I have no worries and no burdens. Of course, I want to hear your true thoughts as a bystander. Let's see if you have the same worries as me, the person who stayed there. "
"I can't say that I'm worried. After all, that's your clan's business and has nothing to do with me. But if you want me to say, the silver-bearded dwarves will eventually perish. "
Although the words were provocative, and the silver-bearded dwarves also looked rather indignant, Freya said: "Sure enough, it's as I thought. But may I know how you came to such a conclusion? Is it because of fertility? "
Freya's question caused her three companions to quieten down. They also wanted to hear a certain someone's opinion.
Seeing everyone's serious appearance, a certain someone felt awkward. After thinking for a moment, he chose his words carefully and said: "It has nothing to do with fertility. If you regard the entire clan as a person, then for this' person ', fertility is actually just a disease. As long as it's discovered and you're willing to treat it, there must be a way to cure it. "
"In other words, there's a problem with the silver-bearded race's practices and ethos."
"Take myself as an example." A certain someone didn't want to be too direct, but instead spoke of his own situation: "I often regret leaving the Tower of the Great Sage. Under the protection of the Magic Tower, I can be said to be carefree. There are no threats that are difficult to deal with. After all, I killed an Abyss Grand Lord. Even if the other party isn't completely dead, it proves that at least an enemy of that level can pose a threat to me when I was in the Magic Tower. You can ask Fen or the two girls about this. They can confirm it. … "
Lich didn't respond, but the two girls still nodded.
"… But if I hadn't left at that time, then my life would probably be the same: eating, sleeping, and studying the starry sky at night. Perhaps with my original basic knowledge, I could have achieved what I have today. However, how much longer would it take? Or should I ask, without the help of the World Tree Wadwo, and with what I've seen and learned in the past five years, would I really be the same as I am today? – "
The biggest difference between physics and mathematics was that mathematics could be done purely on paper, but physics needed to be verified with actual observations. It was difficult for any theory to truly enter the palace before finding sufficient evidence to prove the phenomenon.
"– there is a saying in my hometown: Born in sorrow, die in peace. Of course, a stable and comfortable life was what everyone pursued. However, as the world continued to evolve over time, they would continue to change. If I didn't change in this kind of change, wouldn't it be a kind of regression? Your Silver Beard Dwarves' Peace Armament is indeed very powerful compared to the various weapons of other races. But let me ask you this. Since you left the Dwarven Empire and hid in the underground, has there been any change in your peaceful armed forces? How much stronger is it compared to thousands of years ago? If you were given thousands of years, would there be a different result? In your eyes, is everything you've seen in the outside world and other sapiens still as ignorant as you think? How long do you think it will take for the legacy left behind by the Silver Beard Dwarves' ancestors to become worthless? Without mentioning anything else, the Peace Armament is no different from scrap metal in front of me. If nothing changes, how long do you think it will take for the pride of the Silver Beard Dwarves to be unable to resist the invasion of foreign enemies other than me? "
The four Dwarves were left speechless by the series of questions.
Changing her original serious expression, Lin smiled and said: "In fact, you left your hometown because you perceived a crisis. You may not be able to clearly recognize what it is, but you also have faint thoughts of change in your mind, which is a good thing. But how far can you go? It's not something that others can control or should care about. Everything comes from your own choices. If I had known what was going to happen when I was in the Tower of the Great Sage, I would have chosen to stay and live out my life peacefully. Taking risks and whatnot is not something I would do. "
Although the first few rhetorical questions sounded very motivating, Lin Mengya's heart was still beating fast. But a certain someone's final twist made everyone want to hit him.
Lin said confidently: "Before I entered the Tower of the Great Sage, I worked hard. Since I worked so hard before, what's wrong with me coveting peace and happiness after that? That was the place I planned to bury my bones, but I was chased out in the end. Since I can't protect my achievements, I can only continue to work hard. Work hard when you're young, enjoy when you're old. The next thing is to make arrangements for your funeral. Life is like this. If I leave alone, then so be it. After all, without me, others can still live, and the world will continue to operate. I just want to live out my life smoothly, what's wrong with that? But when a race enters its twilight, how long do you think 'it' can last? What will happen to the people who depend on it in the end? "
Freya let out a long sigh and said to her companions in the language of the Silver Bearded Dwarves: "My friend, I think the words of humans can explain a lot of why."
Marit did not give up and continued to try to persuade her: "If you feel that there are shortcomings in the race, shouldn't we work together to change it? If we stay outside, we can't help any of our brethren. "
"I can't even change you, how can I change others? What status do I have to change others? Look at yourself, you look down on everything you see. Every time you open your mouth, you talk about how the race is, how we will do it, and what's wrong with using the name of Silver Beard. You only want to hold on to the tradition and think that's all there is to it. I have no opinion, that's your way of life; or rather, that's your unchanging policy as the successor of the clan leader for thousands of years. Fine, I accept it, but please don't stop me from pursuing new things. I respect your opinion, but can you respect mine as well? '
"Freya …"
Without waiting for her companions to persuade her again, Freya admired the ring on her hand with satisfaction and carefully felt the power in it. At this point, she truly believed that this was a choice that was not wrong.
A certain someone was not surprised by this sudden drama within the Silver Bearded Dwarves. Compared to the Silver Bearded Dwarves and the ordinary Dwarves in the Land of Mystery, there was a feeling that the Silver Bearded Dwarves' thoughts and practices were different. No wonder they eventually parted ways with the ordinary Dwarves and went into seclusion.
However, compared to the other three Silver Bearded Dwarves, Freya was also different. The one she could talk to the most was actually that taciturn Kaya. Many of her ideas unexpectedly made a certain someone feel that they were things that many independent women on Earth would talk about, and not like a native of the Land of Mystery.
So when something like today happened, a certain someone felt that it was only a matter of time. In any group, it was inevitable that there would be strange people who did not fit in. If they did not humiliate the other party to the point of suicide, they could only watch as the other party broke away from the group and opened up their own world.
Of course, a certain someone could not play dead and not say anything. With the intention of persuading, he could not speak too firmly. "As long as you've thought it through, I have no objections. But I also have to say that you can take off the ring and return it to me whenever you want. Anyway, this is not an unbreakable contract. This sentence is the same for all of you. "
At this time, Riley stretched out his hand with a pained expression to take a ring. But Lin was a step ahead and used Blink to take back the rest of the rings. He looked at the astonished Dwarves and said with an apologetic smile: "Don't make any decisions because of impulsiveness. You are still together and have a lot of time to consider and discuss with each other. I hope that these are gifts that will make you feel at ease and happy after receiving them, not things that will make you feel pain and discomfort. … "
He put the rings away in a pouch.
"… and you don't have to worry too much about your own safety. When I took you away, I promised to take care of all of you. If your life is in danger, I will do my best to help you. I won't say that I will only help Freya and not care about the lives of others. "
Freya asked again: "Do they have names, Sir?" Seeing that a certain someone was a bit confused, the female Dwarf pointed to the unremarkable ring on her finger and said: "You made these little cuties, but you didn't give them names, did you?"
"Oh, this." Lin raised his finger and said: "One ring, the mother of all rings. … "
He pointed to Fen.
"… Ring of Fire, representing universal love. … "
Then he pointed to Augustus.
"… Ring of Wind, representing freedom. Another of the three rings is the Ring of Water, representing equality. The Seven Rings are called the Seven Treasures, namely the Golden Wheel, White Elephant, Blue Horse, Divine Pearl, Jade Maiden, and Scholar. The one in your hand happens to be the last in line. The Nine Rings are the Nine Characters, namely Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Zhen, Lie, Qian, Xing. Uzov's is the Xing Ring, Ezio's is the Jie Ring, Hallumi's is the Fighting Ring, and Kaya's is the Array Ring. "
At this time, Hallumi cried out in dissatisfaction: "Hey, why do I feel that our rings are named so casually? Can't you change it? "
"How can it be so casually named? There's a lot of knowledge involved in Baopuzi's Liujia Secret Blessing. If you don't want this, then how about one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine? Uzov's is No. 9, Ezio's is No. 5, you're No. 3, and Kaya's is No. 6. "
"Hey ~." This time, the people who got the Nine Rings made a sound of dissatisfaction. Only the ignorant child stuffed the finger with the ring into his mouth and stared blankly at everything.
