Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 303: Thinking in the Painful Mind 6
There seems to be a key point in the situation of people on the surface, that is, "the owner of the granary is unwilling to help people who need food."This is not speculation under special circumstances, but common sense.

"That's the difference. As in the case just now, for the owner of the granary to help others, it is at his own expense. The reason he won't help is because, 'He and the people who need food People don't belong to the same group'."

Yes, not in the same group.If the person who needs food and the owner of the granary are not the same group—not relatives, no interest, no close relationship—then the interests of the two are irrelevant.

If he did not steal food, then his family would starve to death, which obviously harmed the interests of those in his group.In order to avoid this from happening, he will inevitably steal food and harm the interests of others.The interests of others have nothing to do with their own interests, which is an iron law deeply rooted in their ideology.It is not because the human nature of the surface people is inherently evil and selfish, but because in the absence of resources, the only way for the group to survive is through this "selfish" method.

"Their so-called group benefit is also a selfish expression." Princess Poberet said, "On the surface, they are willing to give everything for the benefit of the group, but in fact, their so-called group is just a magnified It’s just an individual.”

Whether it is an individual, a family, or a country, they are all but a part of the world.If the people here, for the benefit of some, harm the interests of other parts, then the world will not get a good development.Everyone harms the big interests of other groups for their own or the small interests of the group, which is almost the opposite of the Floating Continent.If this is the case, it is inevitable that the floating continent and the surface will present a completely different social atmosphere.

After some explanations, Huameng understood.She knew why those assassins risked their lives to kill her, and why they abandoned the giant steel whale.What she understands now is not the reason why she did that, but the essential motive of why she did that—for her own benefit, she can harm the benefit of others.

Huanmeng's life has nothing to do with their interests, so they can assassinate Huanmeng in order to silence; the assassin's life is their small interest, and what Huanmeng knows is the big interest, in order to protect the big interest, they must give up the small interest.The steel giant whale is beneficial to them, but this benefit may fall into the hands of the magicians and become a scourge, damaging their interests, so they choose to sacrifice the steel giant whale to prevent the magicians from gaining greater benefits , which is also the way to gain benefits.

"However, there are still some things that Huanmeng doesn't understand." Huanmeng sighed, "How did they do it?"

"Well... I don't think they are like this because of viciousness, cruelty, or cruelty." Princess Poberet said, "It's rationality and a clear judgment of interests. If you want to survive, you have to abandon your sensibility , It has been engraved in their bones since ancient times."

"Huanmeng can understand, but absolutely cannot agree with it." Huanmeng gritted her teeth and said.

"Yes." Princess Poberet said solemnly, "It's understandable, but I definitely don't agree with it."
