Chapter 350: Conversation (Part 2)
As an old man who has lived for hundreds of years, he did not lose his mind because of Xiye's sarcasm. He still had many questions in his mind, so he was quite patient at this time.
Seeing this, Xiye nodded and continued, "The least efficient way for one race to conquer another is to kill others, because the resistance aroused is the most absolute. The ancestors of your Gangwu Empire were the first family of the Western Archipelago to accept the dwarf clan, so they can build magnificent passes on the continent, so that humans can gain a foothold on the continents where the beast tribes are everywhere with their weak bodies... What your ancestors have demonstrated to you, why can't you learn it for more than a thousand years?"
"Are you talking about... Fusion of the Beasts?" Rox said blankly: "Is this possible?"
"Isn't it possible that you have seen it all this day?" Xiye smiled.
"So I want to know how you did it?" Rox said modestly.
"I have said just now... Give hope..." Xiye said slowly: "Back to the previous topic, why are the small tribes of the Beast clan so simple, because only those who depend on powerful tribes can survive or even follow the prosperity and strength in the grassland. Therefore, they will fight to the death of the large tribe, because the stronger the large tribe they depend on, the safer the tribe they are cared for. When the large tribes do not have the ability to protect their tribes, they will naturally rely on other powerful existences..."
Speaking of this, Xiye paused for a moment, looked at the other party and continued: "For them, as long as they can protect their tribe, no matter whether you are the Fire Tribe or the Jifeng Tribe, they don't care. As long as they are strong enough, they can protect the safety of the elderly, weak women and children in the tribe, and make themselves live a better life and have more hope. They don't care who they are, even humans!"
"How is this... possible?" Rox wanted to refute the first time: "How could the orcs rely on humans to attack their compatriots?"
"Why do you think they are fellow citizens?" Xiye said with a funny look: "Whewls and Taurus look like they were born from the same vein? Each tribe has different species, why do you have to divide them together?"
"Because..." Rox was stunned, and hesitated for a moment and didn't know how to continue.
"Because they look like wild beasts?" Xiye smiled and said, "So you think they are all the same anyway, don't you?"
Rox: "…..."
Xiye: "Don't feel embarrassed. This kind of xenophobia is not like your family. All intelligent lives in the world are actually xenophobia at the first time when they meet foreign races... This is a manifestation of racial self-esteem, but it is precisely because of this concept that you have lost the opportunity to integrate with them..."
Rox was silent for a long time after hearing this, then raised his head and asked, "I heard from your subordinates that you plan to let those captured humans or beasts live in the newly built city, and if they can become part of the city and own their own residences, they can become soldiers, doctors, or even administrative officials. Is this what you said to give hope?"
Xiye: "Yes!"
Rox: "Are you cheating on them?"
Xiye: "Why do you think so?"
"Because I don't think it's possible..." Rox frowned and said, "Forget it, even those stupid beasts, even those humans, most of the people you catch are farmers or ordinary soldiers without any knowledge. How can they become a doctor, a judge or even... a magician?"
Xiye: "I can't teach you, what's so strange about this?"
"Would you like to teach them this knowledge?" Rox was stunned. In his opinion, the biggest advantage of aristocrats ruling civilians is that they monopolize knowledge, especially the magician class, which is almost a threshold that civilians cannot reach forever. This guy is actually willing to share knowledge with everyone?
"This thing will not appreciate if it is covered up..." Xiye said with a funny look: "Just like your empire lowering the threshold for knights, isn't it because you also know that with only more people, the more elites they will be screened out?"
"That's because the war in the north makes us need so many knights!" Rox frowned.
"The same is true here..." Xiye spread his hands and smiled: "I need so many doctors, judges, policemen, merchants and magicians in the newly built city..."
Rox looked at the other party in shock, and was stunned for a long time before saying, "You... are you... no one?"
"You can't say that..." Xiye shrugged and said, "You have seen the people of this lord. They are all talents above the level of generals in your country. I can't waste their talents to let them do those things, right?"
"S..." Rox took a deep breath when he heard this. He felt that this guy was actually an empty shell force... only generals and no soldiers?
What a weird situation this is?
"Cough..." Looking at the other party's strange eyes, Xiye coughed lightly and said, "The situation is indeed a bit complicated, and some things are not convenient to reveal to you now. You only need to know that this lord has resources that can accommodate all the populations of your world."
Having resources to accommodate the entire world? Rox was stunned and couldn't help but say: What a big tone...
"Then why did you interview me this time?" Roxs immediately became alert.
"I need your prestige..." Xiye said bluntly: "I hope you can use your reputation to help me win the six southern cities and organize soldiers to use them for my own use..."
"You want me to betray the Empire?" Rox sneered.
"There is no more empire..." Xiye said with a slight slightest: "Do you still think that the emperor in the imperial capital, controlled by the Shadow Flow, is still necessary to be loyal?"
"But why should I be loyal to you?"
"Because I can give you a better life for the remaining people of the empire..." Xiye said gently: "I believe you have also seen that the emperor you used to be loyal to is joining an evil force to build the world into hell, and my purpose is to build a paradise on earth..."
"Paradise? You really dare to say it..." Rox sneered.
"The people here believe that this place will become a paradise, and everyone thinks so...including the old priest of the beast tribe you just met at the door..."
Rox: "…..."
Xiye: "I can give you two more days to consider, but please make sure to make a decision as soon as possible. You must know that every day you delay, the possibility of the land where you are becoming hell is even greater..."
