Rejection
Chapter 358:Rejection
This is not a wild assumption, the history of the development of human civilization is a good proof.
From the Stone Age to the Iron Age took nearly a million years for mankind, and from the Iron Age to the steam age it quickly shortened to 3,200 years.The next time it took only 150 years to move from the steam age to the electrical age, and then 50 years later, the information age was directly ushered in.
As can be seen from the information revealed by Agra, the devil is not an unchanging race.More than 800 years ago, they fought in a similar way to humans, holding bronze and pig iron to build a knife and shield close to fighting, in order to fight the witch, some high-ranking demons will wear the stone of divine punishment.Whenever the siege war, in the face of the wall of the bow, stone thrower and other long-distance attack weapons, the devil basically can not take any effective means of response, often have to pay heavy casualties to conquer a strong city.If it is not born strange, I am afraid that the first battle of God's will is the ultimate winner.
However, in the second battle of God's will, the other side has developed a magic stone that can be mass-produced, and the ethnic groups have also diverged, and different forms of devils have different combat tasks, and even a large number of wild demons have long-distance offensive means.Listen to Ai Gesha's words, they even created the use of magic stone-driven transportation and engineering equipment!Now, more than 400 years later, what have they evolved to look like?
Roland thought that Egsha could bring the magic stone technology of the Takira exploration meeting for himself, thus opening up a new path of industrial development, but he did not expect this technology to come from the enemy.In this way, the battle with the devil is likely to turn into a war between industrial technology and magic stone technology.
Whoever develops faster will win the final victory.
At this thought Roland could not help but sigh, it seemed necessary to have a good talk with Tiley.
...
After dinner, Roland waited at the office for Tily Wimbledon.
When he saw the other party coming alone, he was very pleased - at least in terms of trust, there had been great progress between the two places.
“Listen to the Nightingale, you have something to talk to me about,” she said, sitting down and opening the mountain.
"Yes," Roland handed her over a cup of tea, "however it is to deal with the third battle of God's will and our future."
Tilly took the cup, blinked, and seemed to be waiting for him to continue.
"It can be seen from the words of Agra, the four kingdoms are but a corner of the dawn, and even the wild land was a fertile ground, and mankind has twice lost the devil's hand before it has to retreat to this place.According to the opening of the stone gate, the third battle of God is not far from us.”Roland hesitated for a moment and said bluntly, "I hope you will stay."
Tilly nodded, then couldn't help but laugh, "I didn't expect you to say this."
The power of the devil is unpredictable, and we must gather all the forces that can be gathered to have a chance to win the war.Although Egtha claims that the First Battle of God was fought by mortals and witches, it is likely that the battle of the First Divine will is not fundamentally different from the Second Battle of God's will."He said in a sincere tone, "You also see that this part of the memory in my mind holds a weapon that can defeat the devil, and once the things inside are transformed into entities, mortals can also burst out of unimaginable power."Witches run the war machine, and ordinary people should be the right choice to go to war.At the dawn of the great war, every one more person is equal to one more strength.”
“...” Tilly took a sip of tea, and the delay in answering, made Roland’s heart hang.
But at this time, it was useless to hurry, and he pretended to be calm on the surface, quietly waiting for the other party to speak.
After about half an hour, Tily sighed and broke the silence, “What if I stay, the witch of the sleeping island?”
Does that mean... agree?Roland pressed the excitement, "Let them all come to the border town, here can accept them."I will make a special plot for your witches, and everyone will be treated in the same way as the League of Witches—ah, I do not want to classify them all into the League of Witches, they are still led by you, which is equivalent to the establishment of a self-governing zone in the West.This facilitates cooperation and enhances mutual understanding.”
“The treatment is all the same?”She couldn't help but laugh, "You don't hate their abilities, you know that most people can't fight for you."
"No, no," Roland said, "in my mode of cooperation, the auxiliary witch can play a greater role than the witch of the battle, because she strengthens not herself, but the thousands of ordinary people - no lack of power in nature, only the lack of people who discover and use power, in this respect, the ability to assist the witch is better than too much."
“So that’s your real purpose?”She asked slyly.
“Uh-huh-
"Certainly," said Tilly, shaking her head with a smile, "I cannot refuse to fight the devil's invasion with you, and in private I wish to stay here and learn the interesting things... but I cannot promise you now."
Roland froze and subconsciously asked, “Why?”
“Since I am the chosen leader of the Witches of the Sleeping Island, I cannot determine their prospects by personal preference.Once moved to the West, the organization would inevitably lose its independence, and if anything happens, they will be unable to resist.If one day we clash, will all the witches be able to pack their bags and return to the sleeping island again?”
“No, how could I—”
“I can’t pinned their future on verbal guarantees,” Tiley interrupted, “and if you were me, would you leave everything to each other because of our allies?”
Roland suddenly, the answer almost no need to think, if you encounter such a choice, will not easily promise others.In most cases, the closer it is to be attached, the more prone to contradictions, and the so-called far-off and near-attack comes from this.This is true between forces and forces, even between lovers.
"Look, your concerns are the same as mine."
"But... you're my sister, and I'm never going to hurt you."Roland had to make a last-ditch effort.
"Yes . . . but I can't believe the reasons you're saying," said Tily, with some sadness, "that's probably why I can't promise you right away."She paused, as if trying to put these thoughts aside, "for now let's get along as allies - I will fully support the construction of the border town, if you have a witch need, I will try to meet your requirements as soon as possible... If it is really difficult to resist the devil's offensive, you can go back to the sleeping island and spend your life in peace."That's what I can do now."
