Chapter 56 Shame (7200)(1/3)

"Why isn't it barbaric?"

Ignoring the advice of his son beside him, although Akharonov knew that he was far weaker than Su Zhou, he did not retreat at all.

He was right in his heart and naturally fearless. The old general pushed Okolyolov, who was intended to stop him, looked up at the four giant dragons, and looked at Su Zhou, whose head was bowing, his eyes flashed with a firm light: "You have also experienced war and also known the turmoil of rebellion-Svetre, you have even failed!"

"You know that doing so will trigger a rebellion from the nobles, and make many mobile cities declare independence, and once again start a decades-long chaotic world - and at that time, the Holy Day is probably going to be extinguished, and even the Holy Day is extinguished, and the war will not end. Because people are so stupid, they will entangle in some irrelevant trivial matters when facing a crisis, and instead of dealing with real suffering."

Akharonov raised his hand and pointed high at Su Zhou: "Ignoring the final result and blindly destroying everything is not barbarism? The continuation of civilization is the top priority. As long as you ensure that most people are still alive, then giving up some is the most normal choice!"

Sensing the other party's passionate emotions, Su Zhou shook his head.

"But you were wrong."

The four giant dragons lowered their heads and their scales were like steps. He walked down step by step and came to Aharonov and his son.

He held a large shield and every step he stepped on the ground was like an indestructible city moving forward. Almost everyone bowed their heads, and they dared not look at the man's figure, because it would blind them, like looking directly at the sun.

"I was wrong?"

Only Akharonov still glared at Su Zhou: "Why do you say that? Don't think you can force me to admit your mistake with your strength!"

The old man's words were filled with a sense of sublimity as a martyr.

Yes, Svetre was very strong, the Third Army was defeated, and their lives were fucked by the other party.

But so what? The other party is just a brute-force barbarian. He has never considered the future of civilization, nor the world situation. The entanglement between forces. He just pats his head and feels that he is right, so he insists on interfering with their actions to save the world.

Akharonov is not afraid of death at all, and even if he dies for his own way, he will only be proud.

But Su Zhou didn't care about his anger, and could understand where his anger came from.

Indeed, according to Akharonov's logic, all the actions of the Asmodai Empire were quite barbaric and bloody, but they could indeed ensure the survival of civilization.

Su Zhou knew very well that not everyone was as powerful as him, with the power to change the world. Most of the time they could only take advantage of the situation and find a path that was not bad.

Without power, there is no way to choose the right choice - Su Zhou can fully understand why the families and clans of great existences all have the power given by great existences.

Perhaps, that is not preference or reward, but a basic condition.

——Because there is no power, let alone fulfilling your wishes and achieving the right ones, they are not allowed to choose to get closer to the right path.

Su Zhou did not blame them for going on a fork in the road. This may be a reasonable necessity for a world without time travelers and miracles.

But they should be self-aware and know that the path they are taking is wrong. One hundred percent of the paper should work hard towards one hundred percent.

Moreover, they should know what choices to make when facing the right things.

"I can save everyone."

Therefore, he spoke in a reminder and said to the old general in front of him: "Don't worry about rebellion and independence, nor worry about any troubled times. You do not even need to worry about the extinction of the Holy Day and the Dragon of Dusk, because I will suppress all the disobedience, and rekindle the holy Day and revitalize the divine tree."

"I will revive the World Tree. As for the Dragon of Dusk, the old thoughts will be gone. If I want to remember them, I can remember them alone."

"I can do all this, I can bear the whole world of Aion."

At this moment, Su Zhou raised his palms and layered phantoms appeared in front of him. Under his power, these phantoms quickly turned from virtual to real.

The man looked up slightly and signaled the old general to watch.

——That is the scene of mechanized planting shadows around the Xiguang Society, where villages use alchemy creations to cultivate land and flourish and develop, which is quite like mechanized planting shadows on the earth.

——That is the scene where ordinary people, whether they are northern tribes, Yanshuang residents, or demonized people who come from all over the world, all of them collectively comprehend the inheritance, practice and work, and support themselves while learning source energy skills.

——That is a scene where everyone lives together and strives for the future.

Of course, there is also a scene where the crystalline tree located at the top of Xiguang Tower is shining with a comparable light to the holy sun, and the seedlings of the Burning Sword Tree are growing vigorously.

In a year, although the Burning Sword Tree is far from mature, it will probably take more than a hundred years to become the same size as the Pan Banyan Immortal Tree in the past.

However, just shining on a large area centered on the Xiguang Mountains is completely enough to play the role of maintaining a local ecosystem.

In the past hundred years, the holy sun in heaven will be extinguished, but a new holy sun will grow out and shine on the world again.

Su Zhou did not change anything. These are the most realistic pictures, everything that is happening in the sphere of influence of Xiguang society.

He thought Akharonov could see it.

But this is not the end.

Because there was another phantom that appeared on the other side of Su Zhou's body.

——They are in mobile cities, where they are being bullied by gangs and discriminated against by ordinary people. They are clearly carrying the hope of their relatives, but they are eventually hunted and devoted to the soul of the demonized person who is invested in the heart of the source energy furnace.

——It was the desert surrounded by natural disasters, with many simple buildings, and poor people struggling to survive. Without the help of moving the city, they could only continue to migrate under the threat of natural disasters and demon moon. They lived in a very humble way, and they were even unworthy of being oppressed and exploited by the nobles.

——That was a child who was destined to suffer when he was born, and his fate was ill-fated because he was the son of a demonized man, born in a slum. Even if he was intelligent and without demonized, he was destined to be rejected by others. His behavior of seeking respect for himself would be denounced as "barbaric" by those decent people who were above and above.

Because disrespect for the lower class is part of this order. If the untouchables want to respect it, they are destroying the order and destroying civilization.

In the eyes of decent people who wear flat coats, eat rice and meat, have enough food and clothing, and have no worries about spending winter, such order is a good civilization, and the person who destroys the good civilization that they rely on for their living is the barbarians that should be despised.

Even in the phantom, there are such memories.

A mother gave birth to ten children, but because she was too poor to support her, she buried three. This is very normal for poor families. It is very common to bury their own children, and even to avoid having children. After all, they do not have the conditions for contraception.

There is also a mother in the upper city. Her child was killed in the riot. During the funeral, she cried sadly and cried loudly.

"Why are we crying?" Hearing this voice, the slum mother who was washing clothes thought: "How many children have died, and she has never cried at all."

It’s not that she doesn’t feel sad for her dead children, but she doesn’t feel that human life is so precious and how can she work so hard? She still has seven children to raise.

Of course, this is still limited to ordinary people.

And what about the nobles?

A noble mother in the Aion world died a child. In order to prevent her children from being lonely, she would find a few children from civilians and poor as burials and act as playmates and servants in the future.

Such a custom is not even rare.

People’s sorrows and joys are not interrelated, even if they experience the same thing.

Who is more savage?

What's wrong?

The answer is this social order.

Su Zhou stared at Akharonov, who was watching all the phantoms with his eyes open.

He could see a little unextinguished light from this old general, not knowing that this was the kindness in his nature had not been destroyed, or because of the influence of others, but he felt that the other party would know that he was wrong.

For the right, eliminating mistakes is certainly a joyful thing, but if you can make mistakes admit that you are wrong before you die, you will naturally be even more joyful.

Because death is not the result.

Just like an online debate, the quarrel may continue until one party gives up and ends the topic, but giving up is not the result, and the other party admits that they are wrong.

In order to prove that he does have this power, not just talk nonsense, Su Zhou showed Akharonov the power of his spirit-burning realm, and his past achievements, and then said what he would do in the future.

Su Zhou even showed Akharonov how he would reform in the future: he would use the extreme Arctic Ice Field and Yanshuang Ling as the core to ensure the growth of the Lanxin Shenmu, and then carried out step-by-step clearance towards the forces on all sides, and suppressed all inferior nobles with absolute strength.

He will reform agriculture and create a new source energy engine. The engine design drawings are very advanced. Although Akharonov doesn't know whether it can operate or whether it is true, after watching it, he feels that the design is very mature and cannot be used to deceive himself. Isn't it easier to have this energy to beat yourself with one shield?

As it turns out.

Su Zhou has a program, a plan, and his own goals.

He walked according to the steps and fought steadily. He believed that struggle was necessary, but struggle must find the right method and enemies, unite friends, and strive for middlemen.

"The Empire...can't do all this."

Although he still maintains stubbornness on the surface, in fact, Akharonov's heart has begun to shake.

Because the system of empire means that they have natural enemies and classes that need to be ruled, and they will not have friends.

Because the emperor is a lonely man, he needs to rule his ministers, and many times between ministers only fight for their own interests, not for everyone's better tomorrow.

“That’s all I’m going to do.”

Su Zhou answered all the questions the old general had questioned before and cut off the other party's way forward.

Su Zhou thought that Akharonov knew all this and he would not misunderstand it.

So, he asked.

"Now, the general who thinks he is civilized has two paths right before you. One uses the demonized as fuel and treats the people as gray animals. The steps of progress are only for the rights and interests of the nobles and the emperor."

"The other is that everyone is equal, everyone has the obligation to learn, the obligation to serve everyone, everyone can practice the source of energy, and they can grasp their own destiny. The steps for progress are for themselves and for everyone."

Su Zhou held up the illusion of the two paths before Akharonov, who was stunned. He said calmly: "How would you, a civilized person, choose?"

The old general opened his mouth, but he was dry and speechless.

At this moment, Su Zhou finally understood in his heart why even the great existence that is like the correct one, which represents the "existence" and "continuation", still cannot defeat the dusk.

He also knew why, although Yara did not argue with Shenmu, and even admitted that they were right most of the time, she never fully refused to admit that each other's correctness.

The answer is actually very simple.

"Existence is not correct, it is just reasonable."

Su Zhou murmured silently in his heart, and he sighed.

"And the difference between rationality and correctness is 108,000 miles away. Some of the multiverses are even more miserable and indescribable tragic times than the Aion world. They must have reasons and are reasonable, but they are not correct at all."
