Section 2862 The Liberator's Standpoint
When Caroline said this, the context and general framework of the Panic Realm had been described.
Even if these frameworks were only superficial truths, and a lot of the information inside was still speculated by Caroline, the few pieces of information that Angel was most concerned about had already been answered.
For example, when Caroline first met Ermi, she thought that the Liberator had handed over the control of Ermi to Angel. At that time, Angel didn't know the reason, but now he finally knew the reason.
The Liberator can naturally control the awakened demons, and some Liberators can even control demons.
Therefore, when Caroline saw Ermi staying obediently beside Angel, she was puzzled and made such a guess.
And the information that "the Liberator controls the awakened demons" can also be used to explain the mural that Kael saw.
The picture of the butterfly-winged man in the Panic Realm and the awakened demon living in harmony in the mural may not be really "harmonious". It is very likely that the butterfly-winged man is a second-awakened Liberator, who controls the awakened demon, so that he can easily ride on it and look peaceful and harmonious.
Of course, it is also possible that the liberator handed over the control of this awakened demon to the butterfly-winged man.
Which one it is, we don't know yet, but it doesn't matter.
In addition, whether the panic world is barren, the internal contradictions of the Frost Moon Alliance, the forces behind it, etc., these questions have also been explained.
However, "the more you know, the more doubts you have", this theorem is also very suitable here.
After listening to so much information, Angel had many doubts in his heart at this time.
For example: What is the position of the liberator?
The position of the liberator determines the overall tone of the panic world and the attitude of the wizard towards the panic world.
Most importantly, this will also determine the way Angel will deal with some problems of Ermi in the future.
Angel asked the doubts in his heart. After listening, Caroline pondered for a moment, and finally shrugged and said, "What is the position of the liberator? I can't give a clear answer."
"Just like the wizard world, everyone actually has their own ideas and positions." Caroline pointed to the wise master: "Just like the current problem of this land, the wise master has his own position, and he cares about the glory of Naraku City."
Caroline pointed to herself again: "I also have my own position, and I care about the heroic triumph of Naraku."
"My position and the wise master are different, but in the process of achieving the goal, we can coincide."
"Also, ideas will change, and positions will change." Caroline looked at Angel and said with a smile: "If you capture my heart, maybe I will throw away the title of 'Flower of Naraku' and no longer wait for Naraku, but wait for you."
Angel, who was teased and teased, did not change his face, and even maintained a friendly and polite smile. It's just that the taut skin shows his inner tension.
Seeing Angel's serious expression, but his skin was actually tense, Caroline laughed even louder.
However, after the joke, Caroline still replied seriously: "So, when it comes to the issue of position, we can't look at it one-sidedly. Of course, there is no way to look at it comprehensively. Positions change all the time, and who can say that their position is absolutely correct?"
At this point, Caroline added a proviso.
Caroline suddenly changed the subject: "However, I can be sure that when they attacked the wizard city, they must have followed the world will of the panic world."
"Because only the world will will be more hostile to the invasion of outsiders, especially the invaders who plunder resources. And the wizards of the source world are the biggest invaders in the eyes of the world will of the panic world."
"Otherwise, those liberators would not have to attack the wizard city."
Angel: "Liberators should also need resources. Do they think that the arrival of wizards will devour their resources?"
Caroline: "Maybe there is such a consideration. But I don't think liberators can have such a long-term overall view."
There are various forces among wizards, organizations, families, guilds, and even city-states and countries, so it is relatively easy to integrate the will of wizards.
And wizards themselves also have a "scholar-type" side. When considering issues, some will start from themselves, some will start from the organization, and others will start from long-term development.
In such a cultural background, wizards understand the significance of long-term layout.
Even if the liberators become stronger, it is difficult for them to have the same overall view of the cultural heritage as the wizards.
Unless the liberators can unite and form a large force with clear division of labor like the wizard organization, and then discuss, argue, and make things clearer.
Otherwise, it is difficult for them to understand the layout of the wizards in the panic world.
For example, wizards have no colonial mentality towards the panic world, and their attitude is very gentle.
Moreover, wizards actually have a very good relationship with the local indigenous people in the panic world.
This is actually not difficult to understand. Even if wizards covet the resources of the panic world, these resources originally have a natural boundary with the indigenous people.
The indigenous people are basically ordinary people. The resources they care about are not extraordinary resources at all, but the most ordinary resources that can allow them to survive.
Extraordinary materials may even be poison to ordinary people.
Therefore, ordinary indigenous people have no feelings about the coveting and plundering of extraordinary resources.
And what can the emergence of wizards bring to the indigenous people?
Food and safety.
This is the survival resource that the indigenous people care most about. Once life safety can be guaranteed and food is constantly flowing, the population can continue to develop, and the population explosion can also drive other social dynamism.
The most important thing is that wizards are not like demons. Demons are in danger of awakening at any time, but wizards will not undergo such abnormal changes.
Therefore, from the perspective of ordinary aborigines, wizards bring many benefits and almost no disadvantages. In other words, they cannot see the hidden dangers buried in the distant future.
Even if he did see it, he probably wouldn't take it too seriously.
The life span of ordinary people is only a few hundred years. After a hundred years, there will be no big floods.
Even if there are long-lived races in the panic world, they are still a minority. Moreover, the flesh of most long-lived races is more palatable than that of ordinary races, and they are more likely to be targeted by awakened demons. Therefore, there are fewer and fewer long-lived races. They are also very confused about the way forward, and they do not have any more knowledge than ordinary people.
Therefore, the immediate interests are what the natives in the panic world are most concerned about. The fact that the wizard really brought immediate benefits naturally made their relationship with the wizard more harmonious.
The same principle can be applied to the abyss. When the wizard went to the abyss, he had a good relationship with the natives of the abyss.
The reasons are roughly the same. The enemies of wizards are demons, and the enemies of abyss natives are also demons. Wizards can bring excellent survival resources, and what the abyss natives lack most are survival resources.
With the same goal and the ability to obtain survival resources, the aborigines will naturally not be too repelled by wizards.
Of course, from a long-term perspective, the wizard's plunder will definitely bring harm to the world.
But when your stomach is not full, what does it matter to you if the world is hurt?
Therefore, the indigenous people will not have much conflict of interest with the wizards. The only thing that really conflicts with wizards is the will of the world.
Therefore, Caroline said that there must be a layer of compliance with the will of the world behind the liberation attack on the wizard city, and Angel agreed.
But the will of the world is not an intelligent entity, and it cannot order an attack on the wizard city. Therefore, behind the will of the world in the panic world, there may be a force similar to an extreme sect.
They are holding high the banner of counterattack, but in fact it is only because the will of the world has given them benefit and wisdom.
After roughly understanding the answer, Angel thought of another confusion in his heart: "Since the second-awakened liberators can restore their conscience, and they can also control the awakened demons, then why don't they control the awakened demons? , so that the awakened demons will not harass the ordinary aborigines in the panic world? Wouldn’t this perfectly solve the dangers of the awakened demons?”
Caroline chuckled: "Recovering their conscience does not mean that they are willing to help the indigenous people. At the same time, recovering their conscience cannot cover up the wrong things that the liberated people have done in the past."
"You know, demons, as guardians, are like heretics in the eyes of the indigenous people. Everyone is afraid of them and everyone hates them."
"What about the liberated ones?"
"Before they awaken, the demons are the true guardians. They are like knights and abide by one rule: they will never point their weapons at the indigenous people."
"The Liberators have really pointed their guns at the indigenous people, even their closest relatives and friends! How do you think the indigenous people will treat them? Tolerance and acceptance? Impossible."
"The human heart is inherently complicated. What I said is only analyzing the superficial problems. In fact, there are many deeper problems. Therefore, it is difficult for liberators to sincerely help the indigenous people."
"However, the aborigines were not completely devoured by demons, and the existence of liberators was actually a key factor. Only by looking at the problem dialectically can we clarify the hidden logic in the fog."
After speaking, Caroline looked at Angel: "You can actually understand the question you asked yourself if you think about it, so I won't go into details. Besides, do you have any other questions?"
Angel shook his head. Although he still had some doubts in his heart, they had nothing to do with the overall situation. It was more of his own curiosity, not an urgent problem that needed to be solved.
Angel stopped asking at the right time, but Caroline asked curiously: "You asked me about the Panic World, do you want it to... Earl fans have a second awakening?"
Angel did not deny it: "That's right."
Caroline: "Really? It sounds like you're still a little reluctant?"
"It's more helpless than reluctant." Angel sighed.
Now it's not a question of whether Angel wants Earl's fans to awaken, but that Earl's fans seem to have some signs of a second awakening.
Earl fans have shown some emotional traits before.
And this trait should not appear under the control of the twisted seed.
Laplace's words also proved that Ermi was indeed heading towards the second awakening, and Laplace also pointed out the inner reflection of Ermi.
Ermi's subconscious has discovered the key to his second awakening.
Chaotic embers.
As for the chaotic flames, Angel currently speculates that they should be pointing towards Gentleman Boiling.
After clarifying this matter, Angel began to hesitate.
Do you want to help Earl fans achieve their second awakening? After Ermi awakened, he became a liberated person. Can the twisted seed still control him? In other words, with Angel's character, will he still be able to control Earl's fans?
This is just the most superficial question. There are still many choices that Angel needs to consider and make serious decisions.
For example, the issue of Ermi's position.
Ermi has saved him many times. If there is a chance, Angel is willing to help Ermi advance. However, after Ermi becomes a liberator, he must consider his position.
And this is just a small part of the numerous problems.
Ermi's problem, the problem of the boiling gentleman, the problem of the nightmare world... all kinds of problems are linked together.
For this reason, Angel felt a headache and helpless when he thought of Ermi's second awakening.
"I don't know why you are helpless. However, whether Ermi can become a liberator is originally a hypothetical question, and if you want to awaken for the second time, you will most likely go to the panic world."
"It's too early to go to the panic world with your current strength."
"So, in the short term, you can actually put these troubles aside for the time being."
Caroline's comfort is a normal thinking orientation. However, what she didn't know was that Angel already had clues about Ermi's second awakening. What worried him was whether he should do it or not? And what would happen if he really did it.
However, Angel couldn't say these things, so he could only keep them in his heart.
Caroline suddenly thought of something and smiled: "Then again, I really want to know, if you really have a way to get to this point in the future and can make Ermi become a liberator, will you really do it?"
Angel:... This is not a problem he will consider in the future, he is considering this problem now.
It is precisely because Angel has begun to consider it that he feels helpless and entangled now.
Seeing that Angel remained silent for a long time, Caroline was not annoyed and whispered: "You don't have to answer my question. The reason I asked the question is just to let you think about this issue in advance."
Angel was silent for a moment, and then asked softly: "If it were Ms. Caroline, what choice would you make?"
Caroline covered her mouth and laughed: "You are quite cunning, just rubbing up along the pole."
"However, since you are quite pleasing to me, I can tell you about my choice."
After a pause, Caroline said: "I started , I mentioned that the Panic World is a gray world for me. It is full of sadness, and even the liberators cannot escape this gray tone. "
"The liberators say they are liberated, but in fact it is still just an expectation."
"So, if it were me, I would rather let it remain at the level of awakened demons. Crazy and cruel, cold and ruthless, at least it is an extreme color in the gray world."
"Since it is ruthless, then just be ruthless to the end."
If Caroline only said her own choice, it would be harmless. But the sentence added later began to have a tendency to be violent.
Complete ruthlessness leads to another extreme: a completely dark world.
The gray world is more about sadness, and the dark world is about losing life.
However, Angel also understands why Caroline has such an idea.
Just like the wise man's behavior this time, he helped Angel not to gain from Angel, but more to hope that Angel, the "oddity", would break the deadlock in the underground waterway that lasted for ten thousand years.
Caroline's words, to some extent, coincide with the thoughts of the wise master.
Rather than letting the darkness cover the world, it is better to create a more thorough darkness in the darkness and see if it can become a variable to subvert the status quo of the panic world.
If it were Angel, even if he chose to let Ermi stay in the stage of awakening the demon and not become a liberator, his reason would never be the same as Caroline's.
