The World of Deities
Chapter 266 The Responsibility of the Nobles
In the huge arena, there was no sound.
The audience looked down in surprise. In the tawny arena, gray-white spiked flowers emerged, piercing the people in black leather armor.
The pointed cone is dyed red.
From a distance, it looked like a porcupine's back, with a rotten black leaf.
More than ten stone cones penetrated Luolong's body and emerged with sharp tips.
Strangely, his wound stopped bleeding after only a few seconds.
His flesh and blood were squirming, as if to line up rock spikes.
Not only did Luo Long not die, not only did he not fall into a coma, but instead lay on the flower of the stone cone, holding his head hard and glaring at Su Ye.
There was blood red in his eyes, and his mouth was gasping, like a beast, he clearly wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word.
All the audience could hear Luo Long's throat purring, as if someone was gulping for porridge.
The experienced aristocrats and magicians looked at the priests of the temple of God of War not far away.
After using the zealous potion produced in the Temple of the God of War, that was it.
Su Ye looked at Luo Long.
"You are a nobleman, and many of you here are also noblemen. I heard that every nobleman has a ten-volume "Book of Nobility" written by Master Socrates. Then, I have a small question. You are not a magician. A nobleman has carefully read the ten volumes of "Book of Nobility"? After reading, please raise your hand to indicate, as long as you can answer the questions in the book, I will assume that you have read it, and then give you ten thousand golden eagles. If it is not enough, then Add ten thousand."
Su Ye looked around the audience.
The audience was silent again.
There were thousands of nobles present, and none of them raised their hands.
Some young nobles showed hesitation on their faces. After reading them, they had finished reading them, but they had forgotten the content.
Palos moved her hand slightly and then put it down, looking at Su Ye.
Now you owe me twenty thousand golden eagles!
"Then, besides the nobility, who else has finished reading the "Book of Nobility"? Please raise your hand to indicate."
Master Larence raised his hand first.
Many sanctuary masters and a few golden mages raised their hands.
A few nobles looked at the magicians who raised their hands, their faces were burning.
Most nobles were indifferent.
Many civilian audiences watched this scene with different smiles on their faces.
Only a few civilians began to think.
"It seems that the magician knows the nobles better than the nobles." Su Ye said witty words, but there was no smile on his face.
Su Ye continued: "Most nobles should have not finished reading the "Book of Nobles". It doesn't matter. I believe that most nobles should have opened the first page and should have read the first line of the book."
"The privileges of nobles are born with them." Su Ye's voice suddenly rose.
All the nobles instinctively sit upright and straighten their chests. This is a word they often hear. Every time they hear this sentence, their faces will have undisguised pride.
The same is true now.
"So, how many of you have read the last line of the last page of the tenth volume of "Book of Nobles"?"
The nobles froze for a moment, their straight bodies slightly collapsed.
Only a few nobles whispered the last line in their mouths.
"The responsibility of the nobility is from beginning to end."
Su Ye's tone was extremely peaceful, but thunder resounded through the arena.
Many nobles changed their faces.
A blank look appeared on the faces of many civilians.
"Just look at your faces. Nobles know only privileges but not responsibilities."
Many nobles were furious.
Some nobles kept winking at the referee.
The four referees lowered their heads and counted the grains of sand on the ground.
A sneer appeared on the faces of the civilians, and even a few of the civilians' eyes flashed with hatred.
However, the eyes they looked at Su Ye were particularly soft.
"Speaking of responsibility, I heard a sentence in Lion Harbor, that sentence was'the greater the power, the greater the responsibility'. I remember that many sailors were discussing this sentence at the time, and most of them were laughing."
"I remember very clearly. Someone said at that time, if you have strength, why should you bear the responsibility? This sentence is only used to deceive the weak. It is the self-comfort of the weak. The real strong will never think like this. "
"I thought his words were very reasonable, until I read the words of Master Socrates."
"The privileges of the nobles are inherent; the responsibility of the nobles is from beginning to end."
"The real meaning of this sentence is that some people are born with foreign objects and powers that most people can't match, but if they want to continue to have these foreign objects and powers, they must always take responsibility."
"This sentence is difficult to understand. But we can imagine what will happen if a person is more powerful and irresponsible?"
"A golden warrior, he fancy a girl, the girl doesn't like him. The girl is just an ordinary person, there is no power to restrain him, he is not responsible for anything, he is not responsible for morality, he is not responsible for his conscience, he is not responsible for the law, or even not Be responsible for the girl, then, what will he do? I don’t say the answer, everyone knows."
"A legendary warrior looks at a city-state and wants the entire city-state to serve him. The people of the city-state disagree. If he is not responsible for anything, what might he do? He can just run around the city-state and it will be broken. The whole city."
"If there is an existence that is countless times stronger than the legendary warrior, his power is so strong that the world will be destroyed wherever he passes. However, he does not care about everyone's lives or anything in the world, then he will not Like a child playing with bugs, he never restrains his strength, walks at will, destroys the world at will-even if he doesn't want to kill."
"The situation we just mentioned is only imaginary. What is the actual situation? The reality is that if a person's strength continues to increase, but he does not bear corresponding responsibilities, it is not the world that is destroyed, but himself! If that The Golden Warrior really does not control himself, does not assume responsibility, and does whatever he wants, and one day he will be destroyed by a force stronger than him."
"The greater the power, the greater the responsibility. This sentence is not to protect others, but to avoid losing control of oneself. Responsibility is not restraint, just like clothes are not meant to stop us, but to protect."
The audiences all over the hall looked different, some nodded, some doubted, some shook their heads, and some thought deeply.
"If it's just here, I still can't understand Master Socrates' words. I didn't really understand this until I personally experienced Reck's death, experienced myself being poisoned, deceived, and imprisoned."
"I have had a very simple dream since I was a child. I want to make Athens better, Greece better, and the world better."
"When I went to Lion Harbor when I was young, I always saw a lot of duels, robberies, killings, betrayals, betrayals, pain, anger, suicide... I know very well that I cannot reverse this world, but I must do it for this world. Bring good changes and make the world a little better, even a little better, a little bit is enough."
A gentle smile appeared on Su Ye's face.
"So, I want to become a legendary magician and use the power of magic to make the world a little better. The idea at the beginning is very simple. When I become a legendary magician, I will be able to change the world, so I have dreams every day. I live in a confused life. As I continue to read books and exchange ideas with the most capable people in the world through books, I suddenly discovered something."
"Those legendary masters do have great power, but they did not have it before. So, I carefully read their experience, studied bit by bit, and found a strange thing. They seem to have the ability to predict the future. They Everything they do seems to be a step up to the legend. Like ordinary people climbing, they can easily climb to the legendary position step by step."
"I felt strange and started thinking. There must be something hidden in it. Because I have a basic principle of thinking: if I think about something important and important and I can understand it simply by thinking about it, then I must have overlooked something. The reason is simple. If I can really quickly and deeply understand the nature of a major event, I must have been at the pinnacle of humanity, rather than growing painfully."
"I repeatedly studied the things they did, and in the end, I found a strange phenomenon. Sometimes, what they did subverted common sense; sometimes, they violated the elders; sometimes, they lost profits; Sometimes, they abandoned their reputation; sometimes they gave up their benefits; sometimes they were denied by others... In short, from the perspective of ordinary people, the things they did were either wrong or useless. . But everything they do, whether it's small or big, has one amazing thing in common."
"That is, everything they do points to what they want most, and we can call them spiritual goals, ideals, or missions from the inside out."
"Before making a major choice, they do not consider whether they can make money, whether they can eat in the future, or how others think of themselves, but only consider whether this matter points to their ultimate goal in life."
"I figured this out, I suddenly understood. Only by doing "make the world a better thing" can I become a legendary master. This is the legendary road of my Su Ye."
"After I want to understand this, I have a ruler in my heart. I often use the two rulers of'Make the World Better' and'Legendary Master' to measure myself. Why do I do it? Should I do it? What should I do? Of course, I’m not doing well. I often forget to use the ruler, and I often use it wrong, but I don’t demand myself, as long as I keep using it and remind myself that one day, I can do it."
Su Ye glanced at the somewhat confused audience and continued to speak.
"What I do for my dreams is my responsibility. The greater the responsibility, the greater the strength, which is the deeper essence!"
"It's like, there is a magical mountain in this world, and there is a magical box on the top of the mountain. You can get what you want by opening the box. However, this mountain is very high. You can only open that mountain by climbing this mountain. Box. Most of us think that the mountain is too high to climb. However, the masters and sages do not consider difficulties or obstacles. They only think about one thing: how to get what they want Yes. Then they climbed the mountain with the purpose of opening the treasure chest."
