Chapter 2229 - 1119: Conquering Others with Virtue (Part 3)
She knows she is insignificant before these dangerous powerhouses, not even worth their glance. If it weren’t for the mercy of this deity as bright as the sun, they would have already perished.
"My lord, my name is Zora. You need not mind us, please go ahead with your work, I will do my utmost to assist with your research."
𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
Mrs. Yalong spoke sincerely, truly afraid of annoying this merciful and beautiful deity again.
"Mm, my name is Dorothy."
Dorothy naturally noticed the nervousness of Mrs. Zora in front of her, and she understood her current feelings.
If possible, who would want to entrust their life and death to anyone’s benevolence? The feeling of having one’s entire clan’s fate hinged on another’s whim must be unsettling.
However, she didn’t offer much comfort, knowing well that her words could not really put the other at ease. Actions speak louder than words, and building mutual trust requires time, it cannot be rushed.
So she merely stated her name as an equal.
Alas, weakness is original sin indeed; fall behind and you’ll be beaten, be weak and you can’t control your destiny, you’re not free.
Dorothy, who always goes with the flow, felt a yearning for strength rising in her heart.
However, her desire for strength was not about conquering and invasion, she just yearned for the power to control her own fate and to gain the freedom to live the life she wanted.
Now, the fact that Mrs. Zora was so willing to listen to her and agreed to her trade was not truly because she was moved by her sincerity; in the end, she yielded to her power.
Ah, Confucius said, ’to win over people by virtue.’
This ’virtue’ can mean morality, or it could also mean the great axe named ’virtue.’
To win people over with virtue and the great axe.
I study hard so that I can calmly and equally communicate with others.
I work out hard so that others are also willing to calmly sit down and communicate equally with me.
Both hands must be strong, both hands must be hardened.
Dorothy figured out her guiding principles for life and set her future course of action for the Mechanical Wilderness.
She would strive to conquer the Nine-star World with virtue.
And after making this decision in her heart, she hesitated no longer, directly placing her hand on Mrs. Yalong’s pretty face, which was somewhat nervous, then exerting her Magic Power to carefully inspect and study her body structure, attempting to fully understand the principles of the Pupil of Fear in the Chicken Snake Dragon.
Honestly, this was quite difficult; for an ordinary person, this subject would be enough to research for years.
But the Homebody Witch’s Inspiration began to flash dynamically, and she soon understood everything.
However, Mrs. Zora was a Sub-Dragon, so next she looked at a relatively strong Chicken Snake Dragon Beast, needing it as a control group.
And that strong Dragon Beast was initially somewhat fearful, but upon the leader’s command, accompanied by the Homebody Witch slightly releasing a bit of Charm from the Face of God in a smile, it quickly became obedient.
Soon, the Homebody Witch also completed the analysis of this Dragon Beast.
Thus, she turned her gaze back to Mrs. Yalong.
"Mrs. Zora, do you remember how you became a Sub-Dragon? Was there some special encounter?"
She discovered that the Pupil of Fear in the Sub-Dragon is indeed not on the same level as that of the Dragon Beast, there is a qualitative gap between the two, and this is not just a simple change in the strength of power, but a more fundamental difference.
If she could understand this difference, then killing dragons for their eyes might not be necessary anymore.
