Chapter 2524 Xiao’s Rules and Cao’s Rules

At this time, Yeager had not transferred the power of the giant to his son. Originally, he came this time to use the opportunity of the expedition to find his son and pass on the power to his son. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Duran. .

Yeager certainly had never met Duran, let alone any old friend.

"Come on, I'll buy you a drink."

Yeager hesitated, but finally came to the tavern with Dulan, ordered wine and appetizers and ate. Dulan was not in a hurry to chat, since it was still early anyway.

Because it was early, the business in the tavern was deserted. In addition, everyone went to see off the expeditionary force today, so there were not many people in the store. Duran and Yeager were sitting in the corner, and no one would pay attention.

"So, I don't know you, why are you my old friend?" Yeager asked.

"Haha, this question is a bit complicated to explain, so I won't explain it. In short, my goal and yours are the same. I am also for peace. I know that you are the leader of the Eldian Restoration Faction."

"Are you a Marais?!" Only the Marais know Yeager's identity. No one in Eldia knows it. Within the high wall, Yeager is just a respected doctor with superb medical skills. People know what they have experienced outside the walls.

"You can say that, but I don't discriminate against you. On the contrary, I think you have the legitimacy to fight for your rights. I just think your methods are a bit backward." Duran said: "I also know a little about your experience. You were forced by yourself. The betrayal of your son leads to the annihilation of the entire army. Of course, even if your son does not betray you, you will definitely not be able to win, because the objective conditions do not support your victory. In fact, you honorable Marais still lack the fighting spirit and still yearn to integrate into the powerful Marais. Imperial, so you are destined to fail.”

"..." I didn't expect the other party to know very clearly, but I heard that the other party meant someone who sympathized with the honorable Marley people? This is rare, at least not that Yeager has heard of.

"What the Eldians fear the most among the Marais is that you can become giants. This is as huge as the gap between the old humans and the new humans. It is not just the difference in skin color, gender and age, but it is also regarded as The gap between species. So even though you have intermarried with the Malai people for more than a hundred years, you are still locked up in the quarantine area and treated as a kind of livestock, not a human being."

Yeager felt sad. This was the current situation of Eldian blood in Marley. Even if he became an honorary Marley, he would still be inferior to others and be treated as a monster. The root lies in blood. If this thinking does not change, the conflict between Eldia and Marais will not disappear.

They are all nation-states, and they are divided according to ethnicity. Plus, the exaggerated bloodline of turning into a giant will naturally not be trusted by Malai.

Duran continued, and Yeager continued to listen.

"Bloodline is the biggest problem. If we look at culture, you honorary Marleyans have been cut off from Eldia for a hundred years. The culture has long been Malay and industrialized, and it has nothing to do with Eldia. Feelings. So now many honorary Marais are more opposed to the Eldian Empire than real Marais. "Dulan is telling the truth. These are real problems. The problem is that there is no solution to this problem.

The honorary Marleyans wanted to become Marleyans, but they were not accepted because of their blood, and they had no cultural identity with the Eldians inside the wall, so they had to do something to make the Marleyans accept them, so they Using the attack on Eldia as a pledge of honor, he hopes to gain recognition by opposing Eldia.

This leads to the fact that the two ends of the honorary Malai people are not human and the two ends are blocked. Yeager is an honorary Marais man. He has lived in Marais for more than 20 years and knows that what Duran said is absolutely correct.

"That's why we need to fight." Yeager is a militant: "We don't want to be honorary Malays, we just want to be ourselves, and we want to be independent."

"The idea is right, but it lacks a program. According to your approach, even if you are not betrayed by your son, the most you can do is organize a few more zero-dollar purchases. You cannot put forward a theory beyond blood to unite Malay and Eldi Demihumans, if you cannot unite, then the boundaries of blood will be the inevitable condition that will lead to the failure of your actions," Duran said.

"Yes. It has been ten years. Looking back, our decision is indeed debatable, but how can we change the bloodline that is rooted in our bodies?"

"Using blood to distinguish one's identity is a primitive method and a symbol of backward civilization. The higher level should be distinguished by religion, and the higher level should be distinguished by class, and the higher level should be the world. Datong, everyone is equal in the world, so we must put forward a theory that can make a large number of people equal, transcending blood, transcending status, transcending mortals and giants. This is the key to the success of this struggle." "Because only by proposing it. Such a theory of equality can unite the vast majority of people, whether they are Marais, honorary Marais, Eldians, or even people from other countries, giving them an equal stage and creating a new world. world."

Like the other world, Yeager was once again deeply moved by Duran's rhetoric. It must be said that his character has not changed. Even if he is old and has little life left, he still has the desire to find a future. eager.

I really wish I had known Duran earlier. After hearing what Duran said, Yeager felt that everything had suddenly become clear. In the past, he always fought alone and it was difficult to find like-minded teammates. He felt that the world did not understand him. But now it seems that it is not that the world does not understand him, but that he has never understood the world.

This world is not just about bloodline, there are other commonalities. If they can find other commonalities, then it is possible to break the bloodline.

"For example, religion." Although Duran just opposed religion in the previous two worlds, everything must be affirmed before being denied. Religion has a positive side and cannot be denied: "In monotheism, God is the creator of all people, and all people are the lambs of God. All believers are equal brothers and sisters, and there is no high or low."

Religion can break the boundaries of bloodline to a certain extent, which must have positive significance in ancient times.

"People in the Marley Empire basically do not believe in religion, because they have been enslaved by the Eldian Empire for a long time and have not developed their own religion. Eldia itself does not have any religion, but there are a lot of cults, so religion has never risen in the two countries." Yeager said.

The relationship between Marley and Eldia is very complicated. Two thousand years ago, Marley was strong and Eldia was oppressed. But after Eldia got the power of the Titan, Marley was ruled for more than 1,800 years. After that, Marley used a divisive strategy to seize the Titan of Eldia. In the past hundred years, Marley has felt a bit like "following the rules of Cao". After Marley inherited the power of the Titan, its actions were no different from Eldia's, and it continued to expand.

It's like a big country in Southeast Asia got rid of British colonization, but it was proud of its status as the heir of the colonizer, constantly making enemies with neighboring countries, and did not learn the lessons of Britain's failure at all. There was no reflection, but complacency.

But even if he met Duran now, it's a bit too late. Yeager has committed unforgivable sins and thinks that there is no future.
