Chapter 169 168 I Feel Like a Person
Chapter 169 168. I feel like I am a human being
Strengthening the walls and clearing the fields was the strategy Lu Yu provided for Lan Shui to defeat the enemy.
The moment the words came out, even Lulutis was surprised.
They had already planned to leave after learning the Kolay language. Moreover, according to Lu Yu’s behavior, he had only been slightly involved in some local affairs in Thoresen for Prince Aesop. Most of the time, Lu Yu’s identity was as he said. —Just a passer-by.
The situation in Mostana is chaotic, and the more involved it is, the harder it is to get out. Before, as an outsider, helping to uncover the conspiracy in the Dragon Clan's words was already helping Lan Shui... Now he is directly involved in strategic planning?
However, Lu Yu said it very firmly, and it was not a gaffe. He also wrote down how to implement it and left it to Ye Shui to judge whether it was worth adopting.
Big and small Keluer, the messengers of the Moon Shadow Werewolf, and the senior officials of Blue Water looked at the ideas provided by Lu Yu and fell into deep thought.
Little Krol discovered that moving the Bluewater residents back to Bluewater City, leaving Izarebi's army with nothing to gain, seemed to be just a preliminary plan.
"There is indeed a plan for the next phase, but it depends on whether you are willing to adopt the first phase, and it also depends on whether the first phase can achieve the desired results."
Blue Water's senior management was very courageous. Based on the actual situation, they quickly determined that this tactic was feasible and immediately ordered the start of strengthening the wall and clearing the field.
Although I don’t know what tactics Lu Yu will use in the second stage, it is a victory to make Izarebi, the butcher, unable to get any supplies and can only circle around the blue water irritably.
The envoy of the Moon Shadow Werewolf reacted quickly. Blue Water chose to strengthen the wall and clear the field. If he did not follow up, then Izarebi, who had hit a wall here at Blue Water, would definitely cause trouble for them in order to boost morale.
Seeing the Yueying Werewolf send an envoy back to report the news, Lu Yu already had the confidence to annihilate Izarebi.
Selel's army is a lone army. They rely on high mobility and the alliance's different hearts. They seem to be working together but each has their own agenda to advance.
As long as this vanguard, which relies on war to support war, is trapped, the lonely and deep-reaching army will inevitably be shaken.
Although the mushroom people of Blue Water were unwilling to accept it, they still listened to the call issued by the clan leader and harvested half-ripe crops, freshly grown fruits, and mushrooms that everyone could eat, leaving no food for the Serel people.
While the strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the country was being implemented in an orderly manner outside, Lu Yu was studying the Kolay language in Xiao Keluer's room as usual, and seemed not to care at all about what was happening outside.
The word that little Keluer was just taught was "war".
She held her chin in her hands and stared at Lu Yu with a half-smile.
This is not a vocabulary that should be learned according to the learning progress, so Xiao Keluer opened the topic.
"Why?"
"What why?"
Seeing Keluer's face getting closer and closer, Lulutis stretched out her tentacle and waved it in front of her, indicating that she was almost done.
"I'm very interested in your change of attitude." Little Kelue smiled at this mischievous summon and continued the topic, "From the first time we met, I discovered that your goal is to go to Kelai. "
“Mostana is very vast, but to you, this vastness is just a fleeting scenery during the journey. You have traveled a lot, and such scenery will only make you feel boring. The mountains and water are the same, and people and things seem familiar. "
"War is probably a common thing. It shouldn't cause any turmoil in your heart. You are looking for a translator and learning the Kolay language just to avoid these troubles and leave as soon as possible."
"You are such a purposeful, tenacious, and well-informed person. You have been doing very well these days in Blue Water. You participated in all meetings related to Selier. Your eyes flickered, and there seemed to be something in them. You talk a lot, but you keep your mouth shut and don’t say a word.”
"Your previous attitude towards the war in Selel was that the winner takes all, right? From the perspective of a traveler like you, this is just a 'unification'."
"But you suddenly went out of your way and helped us say things that we shouldn't and couldn't say from an outsider's perspective. Then you, a well-informed traveler, stood up again and provided Lan Shui with a move to contain the Seven-Wand Yi. Zarebi’s ultimate attack... I hear you say, you plan to provide more.”
"What changed you?" Xiao Keluer's face got closer and closer, and her pretty face grew bigger in Lu Yu's eyes.
Lulutis stood between the two of them, but it was useless. She was just a summoned object and was pushed aside by Little Kelu'er.
She wanted to resist, but the agreement with Lu Yu forced her to remain a "summoned object".
"Yeshui?"
Xiao Keluer looked at Lu Yu's calm eyes and quickly rejected this answer.
"Although Ye Shui is very cute, her features that are a bit mushroomy probably don't suit your taste. It seems to be quite difficult for you to accept someone who can be both male and female."
"Blue water?"
Lu Yu's eyes trembled slightly.
"Yes, but not entirely?" Xiao Keluer became interested.
The sun shines through the stained glass of the skylight, scattering colorful "petals" on Lu Yu and Xiao Kelu'er.
"It won't be for me, the Kolay language teacher, right?"
Lu Yu smiled.
Little Keluer also smiled, and she introduced naturally: "In Iris, if you like someone, the way to express your love is very simple."
"Want to hear the details."
"Give the other person a tuft of hair from your tail."
Lu Yu laughed: "But I don't have a tail."
"It's okay, you can ask me for it."
The mist demon has been pinned down by Sigrid. Although the mist demon can break free with a little trick, she cooperates with Sigrid's performance at this time.
Lu Lutis looked left and right, she wanted to do something, but she was just a summon now...
"There are often more than one reason for a person to change." Lu Yu said.
Lu Yu did not respond, and Xiao Keluer did not seem disappointed. It seemed that she just wanted to tease Lu Yu.
"You're right. In my opinion, the war that Celer launched in the land of Mostana is a common conquest. I have seen various versions before, and I guess I will see different ones in the future."
"So although Celer's actions make me ashamed, I don't think it's wrong... Survival is like this, and those who lag behind will be beaten."
"But..."
Lu Yu seemed to recall something: "Yeshui helped me, the people of Lanshui took care of and taught my little mushrooms enthusiastically, and the mushroom dishes of Lanshui are delicious..."
"And, in front of me, Celer slaughtered civilians of all races."
Lu Yu pushed open the door, and the afternoon sun shone on his face.
He walked to the balcony of the house, looking at the mushroom people who kept moving into Lanshui City in the distance, and the busy Lanshui guards in the city, listening to the noise that could be heard here, and said calmly.
"But I am a human being."
Lu Yu knew that in real ancient wars, civilians were consumables.
The three words "people eat each other" are full of blood and tears, but in the history books, they are just three light words.
In the age of ignorance, in a world where slaves still existed and human trafficking was a popular business, talking about civilization was only relative.
When it came to war, no one cared about the lives of civilians.
He understood, he knew, the history books he had read told him that this was very common, because this was war.
But he just didn't want to understand!
Why could Celer, a thriving and powerful country, be so brutal and attack civilians who were unarmed and did not resist?
Just because they were aliens?
Your merits can be built on the enemy. Even the goblins of Yas knew the difference between living resistance and ordinary people when they attacked the city.
Celer is a human race, a country with more than a thousand years of heritage, a country that has experienced displacement, hunger and cold, suffered from contempt, and wandered in many places. How could it be worse than the goblins who discriminated against many races?
Who is the monster, the beast?
The lower the moral sense, the more likely people can get along in a chaotic era, because their flexible moral bottom line allows them to adapt to all situations.
Unfortunately, Lu Yu is not going to be flexible now.
He is stubborn and intends to have a fight with the Celer people.
"I am serious." Lu Yu leaned on the wooden guardrail and looked up at the sky. "I hope that the little mushrooms that I finally left the Great Wetland can grow well in Mostana and wait for me to come back to pick them up."
"I hope that the Blue Water people who warmly received me and let me taste mushroom dishes for free will not be hurt by the inhuman guys."
"Yeshui helped me, and I also want to help her."
"I want to let the other races in Mostana know that people are different."
"I know that as long as I do it, it will cause trouble, but I don't regret it, because I follow my heart, and they support me."
Xiao Keluer glanced at the Mist Demon and Sigrid. Because of Lu Yu's speech, these two guys are ready to open the eyes of Izarebi's vanguard.
She didn't notice that Lu Yu was smiling and side-eying Lulutis.
"You are so stubborn, I can't just leave you alone and run away, what do you mean by supporting you... do I have a choice not to support you?" Lulutis snorted.
"But you didn't stop me when I proposed this idea before, you don't like Celer that much, right?"
"You have made a decision, I certainly can't object, who made us agree that all the important things during the trip are decided by you, I am a seventh-level magician, I have credibility."
"Then Lulutis, thank you in advance."
Xiao Keluer said: "It's really a complex combination of factors, but it seems to be a trivial matter."
"By the way, I teach you Kolai language, don't I have a part in these reasons?"
"If you don't let me cook for you every day, I think this is possible."
Xiao Keluer's face suddenly changed: "Forget it."
