Chapter 279 Reasons for the Long-term War on the Surface 2
Even with the backing of the ethnic group as a guarantee of life, it is not easy to survive on the resource-poor surface.Food is limited, resources are limited, and the population is constantly growing. In this case, it is inevitable that the weak will prey on the strong.The people on the surface grew up under the conditions of vicious competition, so their personalities are naturally biased towards selfishness and cruelty.As long as they don't violate the laws of the ethnic group, they can do anything.In that case, the ethnic group's laws and regulations are just some provisions that can maintain the stability of the group, and they have little effect on the surface people who are in the ruled class.

What is even more frightening is that most rulers acquiesce to the existence of vicious competition.As long as it is vicious competition that does not destroy their own rule, they will not try to stop it, and some even encourage it.Weak individuals will be wiped out due to lack of food and other resources under the bullying of strong individuals, and the overall number will decrease-so food consumption will also decrease-and the rest will be strong people.In this case, why not do it?
"It's...it's like this." Huanmeng frowned, "It's the behavior of a beast!"

"Yes, beasts. It's just that they have become more advanced beasts in the long-term life and have mastered other technologies." Princess Poberet nodded and said, "They have no magic power, and their production efficiency is extremely low. Can you Can you imagine what it would be like to have an environment without magic?"

"Huanmeng...unimaginable." Huanmeng shook his head, "It should be scary, right?"

"It's quite scary." Princess Poberet said, "I have experienced it before. There is no magic power on the surface. There, once the magic power is exhausted, there will be no replenishment. It is as uncomfortable as suffocation."

If magic power is compared to air, then the surface of the earth is a vacuum.On the Floating Continent, the density of magic power is far greater than that in the human body—it is impossible for anyone to raise the density of magic power in the body to the same level as that in the air of the Floating Continent, even Cai Chuan The strongest magician like that can't do it—so after the magic power is consumed, it can be replenished by itself, and the magic power will automatically flow into the human body.However, there is no magic power on the surface, and it is quite uncomfortable to be unable to get supplies after it is used up.

"Now you have a general understanding of the people on the surface." Princess Poberet said, "They are selfish and cruel, and they will definitely start a war in order to compete for resources. In this case, the conclusion is obvious-war is impossible Avoided."

Huanmeng nodded, she could understand this conclusion.

"Then, on the conclusion that war is inevitable, we have to draw the next conclusion—magical weapons can reduce the number of casualties." Princess Poberet frowned slightly, "Perhaps this is not accurate. It should be said that magic weapons can reduce casualties." Guided weapons can reduce unnecessary wars."

"Can it reduce unnecessary wars?" Fanmeng asked curiously, "Isn't magic weapon just a powerful weapon...? Does it still have such an effect?"

"Yes, this is a very obvious truth. Before that, you need to know that living on the surface does not mean you can survive just by starting a war." Princess Poberet added.
