Chapter 132 Request

The nobles in the south kept hiring soldiers from France and other places to expand their troops, which seemed to have put a lot of pressure on Youser. Li Wei quietly thought that otherwise he would not have carried out such activities from the barbaric land of the Scottish Empire to recruit soldiers.

And if he wants to do this, there are probably a series of ways to soothe the dissatisfaction of the Scots who were slaughtered! Is this the so-called superior idea? It is really surprising. With one thought, hundreds of people lost their lives for it. Alas... When thinking of such a terrifying thing, Li Wei's heart was surprisingly not surprised, but was full of fatigue. Such a thing... is really... too troublesome...

Thinking of this, Li Wei couldn't help but look at the expressions of his companions around him. Their faces were also depressed, as if they were not accepting such cruelty and favorable. And what could they say? Are Youse wrong? But he was not wrong from Yuse's perspective, because if he did not expand his army, then many people would definitely lose their lives when the war spreads to Britain. So for the benefit of the residents under his rule, Scotland's interests seemed to be unable to find any place to blame him. Because this was the wise way for the superiors. Li Wei believed that if it were him, he would still do this under the last resort.

However, no matter how high-sounding the result looks, they always feel uncomfortable in their hearts. Soon, Alstori said this uncomfortable feeling.

"Li Wei, do you think you have to sacrifice the interests of some people to have a good ending?" Alstori asked in a deep voice, as if such a question was very important to her...

Li Wei looked straight into Alstori's eyes and found that her eyes were confused except for being confused, as if she didn't know what to do. Seeing that look, Li Wei's heart trembled and unconsciously thought of Shirou Emiya. Somehow, the emotions expressed in Alstori's eyes at this time were very similar to Shirou Emiya in the game. For a moment, Li Wei even suspected that Shirou Emiya's soul had also traveled through time and possessed Alstori.

But he quickly gave up the idea. After all, he grew up with Alstori. He knew clearly that Alstori's every move was not particularly good. He also knew that if he didn't give her a satisfactory answer here, this little girl who loves to be stubborn would inevitably embark on the path that even she regrets herself.

Is it fate? Li Wei secretly thought in his heart that so many things would happen in the year and a half before Alstori ascended the throne. But what happened during this period would have such a big impact.

If she hadn't had her, Alstori would have received that damn task at this time. She was sent to harvest the elderly and children and had to obtain graduation certificates by using the number of their ears. Li Wei seemed to have figured out something. Judging from Alstori's personality, she would probably rather give up her knight graduation qualification than be a butcher with her hands covered with the blood of innocent people.

No wonder she pulled out the sword in the stone as a knight in the established history. No wonder she would never share her inner depression with others, and would only bear the pain brought to her by the lofty throne. It turned out that it was because of this... Li Wei seemed to know his mission to come to this world at this moment. The voices from his heart kept urging him to guide the confused king.

Li Wei gently pressed his heart. Feeling the constant beating, he raised his eyes and looked directly at Alstori and said, "Arstori, do you think you can't sacrifice anyone to make everyone happy?"

Alstori was stunned, but without waiting for her answer, Li Wei continued: "Although I also want everyone to be happy, I also want to make everyone happy through one's efforts, and even want the world to become perfect, everyone can enjoy their happy life." Speaking of this, Li Wei paused and looked at everyone and said: "Well, I think many of us have had such thoughts."

"But..." Li Wei ignored the sacred expression on everyone's faces and said coldly: "But this is impossible. There are always people in the world who are unfortunate, and it is impossible for everyone to be happy. Some happiness must be based on the happiness of others, and in order to maintain the happiness of some people, some people must be sacrificed."

"This is reality. The perfect ending in a fairy tale does not exist. To achieve perfection, someone must sacrifice, and someone must pay a lot for it. And these sacrificed people may be innocent, but we can't do anything about it." Li Wei said quietly, "Arstori, do you still have any questions about this?"

Alstori looked pale and looked at Li Wei with a gaze that he didn't know Li Wei at all, as if he wanted to confirm whether such words were said from her familiar partner. But no matter how she looked at him, Li Wei was still like that.

"Isn't the happiness of others happy?" Alstori shouted angrily, "They... they are human beings too! Why? Why can we... we deprive them of happiness? They have nothing to do with the battles of Britain!! Tell me, Li Wei, if you have the chance, will you do this too??"

Li Wei looked at Alstori with tears in his eyes and sighed for a long time, "There is a story like this. Once, when the tide of the sea was receding, many innocent fish were washed onto the beach. They were numerous, almost the entire beach, and as long as someone helped them, they could survive and return to the sea, and live freely. At this time, a child did it, and he threw the small fish he encountered along the way back to the sea with difficulty. Although he worked hard, the fish he could save was insignificant for a large number of fish. Someone saw it and told him that this would be useless at all."

"The child replied, "I know I can't save all the fish, but I can save the fish I care about. This is my answer. If I care about the people I care about, I can exchange the happiness of the innocent. Because this is human nature and everyone hopes."

"No matter which family of children, they don't like their parents to talk about other people's children all day long; teachers don't like other students to be smarter than their students; the people don't like a leader who cares about the people of other countries. Everything like this is human nature." Li Wei replied, "Sages always hope that everyone can be selfless, and they always regard this as their lifelong goal. However, when it comes to this, I have never heard of any sage that can succeed."

"Even God, the supreme God, only cares about the interests of its believers. It only protects its believers. If it is for its believers, it can sacrifice the interests of others without any scruples. Such things exist in all religions. If you don't believe, Alstori, you can also check the Bible and see how God treats those who do not believe in it."

"Arstori. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Li Wei looked at Alstori solemnly and said.

Alstori was so excited by Li Wei's words that she opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but no matter what she thought, she could not think of any reason to refute Li Wei's "false theory". She looked at Li Wei and asked word by word: "Then...what is even a hero?"

"Heroes have always been heroes of some people. For heroes, they are the culprits that destroy their happiness. There has never been a shared hero. There has never been one." Li Wei said calmly, "A hero without humanity cannot be called a hero at all. He...at most he is a dreamer during the day. In the end, he will lose even the most basic dignity of a hero."

Alstori clenched his fists and trembled all over, as if she was angry with Li Wei's words. But she didn't do anything, just stood there quietly, standing quietly.

"Okay, I've said so much. In fact, it's just some personal opinions." Li Wei sighed and said to everyone with different faces, "So you can't take it to heart. After all, everyone's ideas are different. You can also have your own opinions. My ideas are only for your reference at most."

"Okay, let's go have a meal! Let's take a break here and we'll rush back! After all, our mission has been completed. I don't think you want to stay here anymore!" Li Wei tried to ease the atmosphere through some relaxed topics, but the feeling caused by his words could not be dispelled no matter what.

In the silence, everyone walked towards the place arranged by the Scottish people for them. What made Li Wei happy was that Alstorie was not as unconscious as she heard of the massacre of civilians for the first time, but gradually followed.

In this case, such a thing should not happen again! Li Wei thought with grief. In the silence, Li Wei and the others quickly finished their lunch. Although the exotic taste was very fresh, everyone was not very interested. Everyone was full of thoughts and seemed to have their own thoughts.

When Li Wei and the others were about to leave, the city bell suddenly rang loudly, and the people who heard the bell in the city changed their faces and hid in their homes one by one.

In an instant, the originally lively street became empty in that moment. Just as Li Wei and the others were guessing what happened, teams of Scottish soldiers wearing shabby arms began to advance on the street. They ran towards the city gate one after another, as if something urgent had happened.

"What happened?" Li Wei grabbed the soldiers who were running towards the city gate and asked.

The soldier was suddenly grabbed by Li Wei, and his heart felt deeply dissatisfied, but when he saw the Roman pattern on Li Wei and his men's armor, he couldn't help but suppress his dissatisfaction and said slightly hurriedly: "The Blue Devil is coming to attack us! We must go to the city gate to defend."

"What? Blue Devil's attack?" Li Wei said in shock. He could not understand why those blue Devils who had not even had their clothes solved would dare to attack such a city. Even if Kai had too many bad reviews of this city before, it was still a stone city. If there were no powerful enough siege tools, the city wall made of stones could become a living meat grinder.

Just as Li Wei was thinking about why the Blue Demon suddenly attacked the city, the soldier with a anxious look seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly said to Li Wei and the others: "By the way, after sending out the eloquence, the captain told us that if he met a knight waiter, he must tell them to go to the conference hall quickly. If you know what knight waiter things are, please tell them." After that, the soldier broke free from Li Wei's hand and ran quickly towards the city gate.

The old fox was actually looking for us? Li Wei thought strangely, did he want us to help them defend the city? Or something else happened? Why do I always have a feeling that the old fox knew that an attack would occur. Otherwise, he would not have tried every means to keep us.

Li Wei could not guess Gru's idea after guessing, but to be cautious, he took everyone to the discussion house just now to see what the old fox sold in the gourd.

Seeing Li Wei and the others' figures, Gru's eyes flashed and he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "It turns out that you have not left yet. That's great. I thought you have left just now."

"Well? What happened? I think those blue demons alone wouldn't let you do this." Li Wei couldn't help asking curiously when he saw Gru's expression.

Gru waved his hand and said as if he was driving away the flies: "Of course, although my compatriots are a little more numerous, they are not opponents of my city. As long as they are careful, they will probably retreat in a few days. I invite you all, not because of the Blue Devil's affairs, but about your companions."

"What? Our companions? Are you talking about other knights?" Kai asked in shock when he heard this, "Did they besides what situation?"

"Yeah," Gru said, nodding, "those knights seem to be ambushed by my fellow citizens. Some of them are even captured. According to those who have fled back, at least two teams of knights are fighting fiercely in the northeast."

"Captained?" Everyone couldn't believe the shocking news, "This is impossible." Li Wei and the others didn't believe that their brave and warlike classmates would be captured by the barbarians. Although they could not beat them, they could also escape. With their mounts, the walking blue demons could not catch up with them.

"This fact is true." Gru said frowningly, "Although I don't know the specific process, the news is indeed true. The reason I invited you to come is that I hope you can help me."

"Help you?" Li Wei looked at Gru in a strange way and said thoughtfully.
