On the Seven Towers

Although Metatron's words were just her personal opinion, there are undoubtedly many people who would hold such thoughts, not only those strong people who joined in, but also those who became stronger and stronger, especially those who were originally students. Xiao Chen has more or less heard them complain about this.

At the beginning, the school as a whole traveled through time, and everyone needed to be organized to survive. Almost everyone did not think much about it and recognized the committee composed of school teachers. However, as the supernatural abilities of this world were gradually discovered, these young people found that their martial arts could far surpass those middle-aged people who controlled them. With the increase of ability, the restless mentality will naturally increase, and at the same time, the uncontrollable ambition will also increase.

The event that impressed Xiao Chen the most was the magic manipulation event half a year ago. The cause and effect of this incident are very simple. It is a young man with the strength of a mid-level mage in the business group. Because he was busy with cultivation and slack in work, he has not been promoted. Although he had no interest in the work itself, his mentality changed when he saw his friends and partners in the same period all took various leadership positions, and even some new residents recruited locally climbed above him. Those partners who used to be on equal footing could manage the business of a city, and those who were average could be in charge of a branch of a trading company. However, because he had made two serious mistakes in his work, he was still doing the logistics work of the caravan, just like a year ago. His daily work was to command a few subordinates, count and move goods.

Once, after being severely scolded by his classmate and boss who was supposed to be the same as him, he was furious and used domination to control his classmates who were not as good as him in magic realm, and made his classmates learn to bark like dogs and crawl around in Hewan New City.

This incident caused a sensation in the whole city at that time. The person involved was severely criticized by many people, and of course he was also punished with imprisonment, fines, and public apologies, but what was worrying was that there was an undercurrent in public opinion that applauded what this person did. At that time, there was even a small trend, and many young people began to use various small spells to joke or tease their bosses who had no magic ability. There were even many catchy sayings:

"Fighting blood plus magic, it's better to say a word to the leader."

"Who can sit up, just look at the wrinkles. Young and capable, you are the one to take the blame."

This once aroused the high vigilance of the committee. After a campaign to severely crack down on and punish such acts, this trend was suppressed. And this incident was the fuse that accelerated the committee's promotion of the construction of the Mage Prison. But Xiao Chen knew very well that these people didn't say it or take action, but it didn't mean that they didn't want to.

If Metatron's words were spread, it would be estimated that many people would secretly applaud in their hearts.

"What do you want me to do by telling me this?" Xiao Chen asked.

Mei said: "Answer me first, do I make sense?"

Xiao Chen had to admit that what she said made sense.

"If that makes sense, then you should push this forward. There is no better opportunity than now. Don't think that the world we live in is less developed than your hometown, and that we must have less knowledge. I have seen many times more intrigues than you. This kind of thing is like magic, practice makes perfect." Mei said seriously, "You are already a great magician. What do you think is your responsibility? To rush to the front again and again and solve various problems? You should start thinking about how to lead these people and how to make changes. You don't emphasize listening to the opinions of the people and maintaining the people. Protect the interests of everyone? The voice of the strong is also a voice. Don't just protect the weak and make the strong feel cold. "

Mei saw Xiao Chen thinking for a long time and didn't express his opinion, and said angrily: "What are you thinking about?"

Xiao Chen raised his eyes and said: "Ah? I'm just trying to deduce this role. You said so much, I have to think about what will happen if I wade into this muddy water? The change of power is not a simple and peaceful thing. If you are not careful, you will overturn. "

"Hurry up, the war with the empire is still going on, and your ruling organs are When attacked, a strong person needs to stand up more than ever. At this time, you need courage more than wisdom. Problems will always be solved, provided that someone who can solve them appears.

Think about what you were doing in the past few days? You were actually locked up in the Mage Prison by those guys. Originally, according to my plan, if you don't come out tomorrow, I will rush in wearing the God of War armor. I really can't bear to see you lock yourself up in that prison. "

Xiao Chen looked at Mei's angry look and felt a little warm. He argued: "I just want to respect the rules. If the rules are trampled on by the strong, then in the end, it is no longer the rules that constrain everyone, but the will of the strong. "

"You do things according to the rules, but do you realize that the rules are not suitable for constraining the strong? Or, they can't constrain those real strong people at all? "

Xiao Chen thought and said carefully: "We have a saying there, although we can't reach it, our hearts yearn for it. Any rule can only limit part of our behavior. There will always be someone who will override it, and there will be someone who will exploit its loopholes from below.

However, if you really observe history, you will find that each era is more rule-abiding than the previous one. Only when the strong begin to learn to abide by the rules can the life and dignity of the weak be guaranteed. Think about it, although we are all strong in front of ordinary people, a natural god oppresses us to the point of suffocation. If in our territory, we treat ordinary people like the natural god treats us, ordinary people have to worry about our arbitrary bullying, plundering, and even obliteration every day, such a place is too terrible. I think the appropriate way is for the strong and the weak to exchange within the system of rules, and the strong and the weak have their own division of labor, and each pays labor to exchange the results of others, so that the world will become better and better. "

"Cut, are you going to be a philosopher?" Mei said with a bit of sarcasm, but there was no disdain in her expression. Maybe something in Xiao Chen's words still touched her.

Xiao Chen said: "I am just willing to be a strong person who takes the lead in abiding by the rules. "

"Contradictory guy. "Mei looked at the charred bodies and thought of all the things Xiao Chen had done before, and muttered: "Your obedience is limited to certain times, right?"

Xiao Chen shrugged helplessly: "You have to eat one bite at a time, start at the right time."
