Chapter 332 Failure
After Darles took his last breath——
died.
Norman came over and looked at Darles, who was staring at him like a devil. His eyes twitched and he said, "Didn't we agree that when the time comes, we will hand him over to the top leaders of the Xing Luo Empire? Why did you kill him?"
"He committed suicide."
Zhou Qing shrugged. "I think that both the high-level officials of the Spirit Hall and the people from the Xingluo Empire can confirm this. After all, he is a Level 31 Soul Master."
Norman walked up to Darles' body, examined it carefully, and after confirming the circumstances of Darles' death, he sighed, "You are really amazing to force a person to death in such a short time."
"He just couldn't accept that he would die as a nobody, and wanted to leave a last bit of dignity for himself."
Zhou Qing hit the nail on the head, and then said, "Mr. Norman, my companions and I are all unknown people. I hope you can conceal our existence when the time comes, or just use our adventurous behavior as the trigger for this series of events... In short, weaken our presence."
"After all, you don't want Youhui to lose a group of interesting friends, right?"
Speechless!
Extremely speechless!
But Norman finally agreed and just asked, "How do you explain all this? Coincidence?"
"Isn't it just a coincidence? Darles messed around on his own, and was accidentally discovered by adventurers like us from Notting City, which then triggered a series of events that angered the heavens and the people." Zhou Qing's face was full of an innocent smile, "I'm just a six-year-old child, I really don't know anything."
Norman was speechless, sighed faintly, and finally gave Zhou Qing a thumbs up and said, "What are you going to do next? I think I understand your idea, but this is how the world is. Everyone is divided into different levels. You want to rely on civilians... It will never work. And you know that even if they are oppressed and used, their choice is still - whoever wins, they will help!"
However, Zhou Qing did not respond, but just turned around with a smile and waved to Norman with his back to him.
He is full of greater passion to change the world!
Who wins?
Who do they help?
It doesn’t matter. No matter how obvious their flaws are, they cannot change the simple side of their hearts. Moreover, their ideas are very accurate when it comes to major issues.
However, this experiment also made Zhou Qing truly understand that during the changes, the people in the city were indeed unreliable.
reason?
Although most of the people in the city are also civilians with the same status as farmers in the country, the prosperity of the city also makes the people in the city have a stronger instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm than farmers in the country.
It does not refer to the prediction of actual danger, but that although those who live in the city do not understand politics, they have an almost instinctive sensitivity to political changes.
[The situation in this world is quite similar to that in the previous life. We still have to use the countryside as a benchmark to establish a basic base and cultivate a true team...]
Of course, this is Zhou Qing's future direction. In this process, he must also improve his own strength. After all, this is a world of extraordinary power.
The only thing to be thankful for is that in this world, or in this era, soul masters' research on soul power and soul guides is still very primitive. Except for Titled Douluo, other soul masters can theoretically be killed by the army. Therefore, he has the foundation for reform and can make the common people truly qualified to stand on the same basic line with the nobles in terms of identity before those "noble" powerful classes consolidate their own positions.
Above the Falling Star City Square.
Luo Xing learned from Norman that this Darles was a fake, and after personally checking and confirming that he was really wearing a human skin mask, he took up a machete and acted as an executioner without saying a word, beheading the fake Darles.
When the huge head rolled to the ground, people in the whole city cheered!
Darius is dead!
They are having a good time!
Some people even brought a basket of steamed buns and dipped them in Dales' blood, thinking that it was the blood of a soul master and that it might be able to cure all diseases and even allow their children to possess innate soul power after awakening their martial souls.
Tang San frowned - in his previous life, court officials beheaded criminals in the vegetable market, and some people would use steamed buns and steamed bread to dip in human blood, saying that it could cure all diseases.
But in fact, it will increase the probability of getting sick!
But the people are ignorant and wishful thinking.
Isn't it the same for the common people in this world?
[The buildings in this Falling Star City are very similar to those in my previous life. The people... although their hair color has changed, their stupidity is exactly the same.]
Although this scene also stimulated Tang San who had the memory of his previous life, he could not be happy. After all, using steamed buns dipped in human blood to cure diseases was really a very disgusting thing for him who was an authority on medical knowledge.
"It feels no different from a soul beast... just a little disgusting."
Xiao Wu, who was transformed from a 100,000-year-old soft-bone charm rabbit, was accustomed to carnivorous soul beasts licking blood, but for some reason, when she saw humans doing so, she felt disgusted.
In short, she felt that since humans were different from soul beasts, they should not do such things.
But the people of Falling Star City did just that, that is -
A little more civilized?
Don't lick it directly with your tongue, but dip it with steamed buns or dumplings.
Romantina didn't comment, but tried hard not to watch it all.
"so--"
“That’s what needs to change.”
At some point, Zhou Qing walked up to the three people, looking at those people who were laughing, shouting, and fighting for the fake Dales blood, his eyes full of determination, "Living in such a world makes me feel like I'm living in hell! Although I have never experienced war and can't imagine what a sea of blood and corpses looks like, I feel that even a battlefield full of broken limbs is definitely not as shocking as their behavior."
Tang San was silent for a while, nodded secretly, and then asked: "Brother Qing, did your experiment of awakening the courage of the people succeed or fail?"
"They dare to abuse Darles verbally, but when Darles was alive, they only dared to abuse him verbally..."
"So, it failed?"
"Ah."
Zhou Qing nodded, but then shook his head. "However, they are not without courage. It's just that I plan to give up the city temporarily. The authority of the ruling class is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is impossible for us to establish a team that truly belongs to us in the city. Even if we gather a group of people, we can't compete with the ruling class in the city. The best result is to integrate into the system of the ruling class and be slowly assimilated..."
Tang San sighed.
Ultimately, we still have to join the system, adapt to the system, and guard the system.
To find a new way, you have to create it from scratch.
Where to create from?
Rural.
Because this is an area that the top leaders of the two empires don't care much about.
If someone suddenly dies in the city, the relevant officials may investigate and find out the truth.
And someone was killed in the countryside...
Unless there is a large-scale massacre of a village, or the scale of fighting between villages becomes larger, the surrounding towns are too lazy to send people to investigate...
