Sully rescued Matilda, who was about to die on the battlefield, from the clutches of death.

Matilda never thought that she still had a chance to survive.

She was covered in blood, and Sully, who had no effective treatment, could only choose to give Matilda the medicine. During this time, Matilda, who had regained consciousness, also watched a conversation between humans and monsters.

Du Ya was also badly injured. Facing the boy who had placed almost all the healing potions in the space ring in front of him, he shook his head and said, "My injuries are not serious. Monster society is not like human society. Everything here is extremely urgent."

“Once similar treatment resources are used up, it will be more difficult than you can imagine to replenish them.”

Du Ya felt that there was no need to use these things for injuries that could be healed by the body itself.

But Suli disagrees.

"Keeping in top shape is the most important thing for both you and me."

"But if you use these drugs on the Queen of the Feather Tribe, then whether it is psychological or physiological, she will listen carefully to what you say from now on, or give you a high degree of trust."

No matter how you look at it, he is a lifesaver.

Suli still disagrees: "I don't need her trust."

"What I need is for your feathers to return to their original state and for your wounds to no longer be covered in charred marks."

Du Ya looked stunned.

"The decision to save the Queen of the Feather Tribe came to me suddenly. There is no need for me to continue to wrong you for my own personal benefit after you have already borne the cost of the battle."

"If you're still a man, don't continue talking to me about this topic." Sully didn't give Crow a chance to continue.

In order to prevent the boy from actually picking up the bottle and pouring the medicine into his own mouth, Du Ya chose to compromise.

Not until the wounds on her body healed and her feathers grew back into their beautiful colorful black appearance in the sunlight did Sully turn his attention to Matilda, who was lying on the ground with a grim look on her face.

"What should I say at this time? Should I yell at you and not even give me a chance to fulfill my responsibility? Or should I say thank you for saving my life? And then take the initiative to provide you with help in the hope of repaying you?"

Matilda's mood and tone were calm.

The main reason is that I feel there is nothing worth going into further.

A beast king who is as powerful as a monster, and a human who can fight monsters head-on. No matter from which angle you look at it, I'm afraid he is also equivalent to a monster...

Matilda: Tired, destroy, let me die.

She longed to die in that battle, or at least die gloriously.

It's not like now, standing still, looking left and right, up and down, and seeing endless darkness everywhere.

"My advice is to keep quiet." There are times when Sully doesn't want to work.

Du Ya carried his seriously injured body and ran away with his men. After making sure that other monsters would not be able to catch up with them in a short time even if they chased them, they stopped on a plain and began to treat their wounds.

It was late at night, with no stars or moon in the sky. An occasional gust of wind made Sully scratch his hair, and then the boy threw a piece of wood into the fire made by the crow.

Fortunately, Matilda was lucky enough to be alive, otherwise she would have died on the way.

"But don't you think that if I close my mouth now, I will never have the chance to open it again?" After Matilda recovered from her shock, she stared at Sully's profile with her sharp eyes.

According to what Crow said to Sully, he should give priority to treating her in order to gain her trust. Matilda did not want to think deeply about it. Her mind was full of the scene where she was almost beaten into a pulp by the Queen of the Feathers. She directly defined the boy as putting profit first.

After all, compared to giving the medicine to a monster she had just met for the first time, giving it to Du Ya, even if there is no obvious benefit, but this boss who trusts his subordinates will not have the uncertainty that is most likely to happen to her.

As the person who was rescued, Matilda gave two explanations. She originally wanted Sully to come up with a third possibility, but the boy simply ignored her.

One of the reasons was that it shattered right after it was set. The other was that it was this human who, on the battlefield at that time, chose to take away this monster who didn't care whether she lived or died...

"It will do you no good to save me." Matilda really wanted to die, to die calmly and openly.

"Although I am the king of the Feather Tribe, a king like me who always lives in the Queen's Palace has no real control over the Feather Tribe."

She glanced at Suli, who seemed to be listening patiently but also seemed to be in a daze, and continued the topic by herself: "He was not good at fighting, and his power was taken away. He finally went to the battlefield and tried his best to save his people, but he almost died in vain."

Her voice was a little hoarse. "It's better to save Addison and the others than to save me... That guy is a butterfly. I don't know exactly how strong he is, but in a field of flowers like that, he can easily create one of the most beautiful scenes in the world."

"Of course there is Adonis. The Gray Crane is the tribe with the largest number of natural monsters among all the Feather Tribes. Although she is not very prominent in the political circle of the Feather Tribe, considering the comprehensive power behind her, saving her is much better than saving me."

Aside from the hoarseness of her voice, Matilda's voice sounded completely unchanged.

Suli heard the crackling sound of the fire. He glanced at the starless sky and did not turn his head to look at the lady's frightened face. Staring at the rising sparks, Suli said, "If you want to save someone, save him. When do you have to consider the benefits when saving someone?"

"Or have you forgotten what humans look like?" Sully turned and looked at Matilda.

The eyes of the Feather King were red. Suliquan pretended not to know whether he had shed tears before and only said, "I saved you because you happened to be the closest to our escape route."

"Secondly, whether we save you or not has no impact on us."

Matilda was only one breath away at the time. In human form, she looked a little uncomfortable except for the bloody stage. At other times, when she was on the paw of the crow, she did not reduce his flying speed.

"When given a choice between two options, I will only consider the one that is relatively better."

Matilda raised her head stubbornly and asked, "So there are no various opinions about interests?"

"That's impossible. If that weren't the case, how could that crow have said that giving me the treatment drugs first would benefit you..."

Matilda knew she was being stubborn.

But she chose to let it go.

Matilda never lived a heroic life, either as a human or as a monster.

She envied Elvi, a demon beast who had been in spiritual communication with the dragon for a long time.

There is no way. As long as we have the ability to think, life will always be chasing the sunshine.

However, no matter how much she thought about it, it couldn't change Matilda's heart, which was so dark that it was not suitable to be exposed to the light when she chose to die.

After all, she is the queen of the Feather Clan, and at least she has been able to sit in the position of puppet for so many years.

Sully was so powerful that it didn't matter whether he saved her or not. A weakling like her who was so despicable that she never dared to resist, just needed to accept the good results brought to her by the strong, like a monster hiding in a corner full of mycelium, and secretly rejoicing.

But still...

resentment.

Why save her?

There are so many monsters that want to live, but you have to save one that already wants to die.

Extreme, bigoted, incompetent.

Matilda allowed her dark thoughts to run rampant, while at the same time evaluating her current situation with extreme calmness.

Suli did not offer any words of enlightenment for a long time.

Unlike other people who want to move forward, when this type of people are at their lowest point in their emotions and state, comfort and practical help are the best acts of support.

And if it is a monster like Matilda who, based on reality, finally determines that she cannot survive and really does not want to continue living...

What suits her better is not those soothing words that may hurt her, but letting her digest the negative emotions slowly and quietly alone.

Otherwise it will only intensify emotions.

The most likely outcome is that the self-righteous person who thinks he is providing help will suddenly be faced with the hysteria of an extremely emotional person.

In the end, the so-called good intentions will only be distorted because they are not reciprocated, and become another kind of unnecessary harm to the guys who just want to lick their wounds in peace.

After briefly analyzing Matilda's condition, Sully suddenly pinched his nose.

During the retirement period, when not working, Sully has always been the kind of person who prefers to focus on himself...

This damn world.

If you have a problem, just curse the world, you will never go wrong.jpg

Sully thought about it for a long time. Not far away, Matilda's breathing became more and more steady. Then she said, "I'm sorry. I said something that didn't seem sober."

Sully nodded in acceptance.

He told the Feather Queen, who looked more like a human than a monster: "No one can stay rational forever. Reason is important because when madness appears, it will bring about various adverse consequences."

Matilda hesitated, but still asked: "--Do you know the strange disease among the transformed monsters?"

"I call it madness."

Simple and clear.

I don't know what Matilda was thinking. After that, the queen did not choose to delve into the topic of madness, but said: "Where are we going next?"

"What are you going to do? Can my survival provide you with corresponding help? Of course, I don't think this is a cheap way of repaying your life-saving grace. I will provide you with the best strength I can, but it's just because..."

"You're quite a likable child."

Or very likable.

Even though there was no in-depth communication, when Matilda fell into a dark state, Sully's figure sitting there did become the rope that tied her to the edge of the cliff before she went to the extreme.

"...You don't need to say the last sentence." Su Li felt a pain in his heart.

——Oh, it turns out to be an invisible arrow.

Matilda tried to put on a lighthearted tone: "But compared to me, who has lived for hundreds of years, your life span may not even be a fraction of mine."

"...When I think about it this way, I always feel like I have lived in vain for so many years."

Matilda grew darker.

Suli said, "I plan to go to the sea after daybreak. When the Beast Tribe was attacking the Feather Tribe, they also sent the Dragon and the Unicorn to attack the Water Tribe."

"It's just that the fighting over there has now been forcibly stopped."

Suli thought for a moment and gave an example: "It's almost the same as the strong and the weak all becoming weaker people that they don't care about. That's the legendary white-skinned players in the Novice Village."

Not to mention the uncle in the weapon shop and the proprietress in the tavern, they had their strength suppressed, and they didn't even have time to take on the task of collecting the little kid's candied haws.

In short, in the realm of noobs, all monsters fight each other like noobs.

Sully pinched his soft palms honestly to make sure there were no obvious signs of muscle.

Matilda was stunned.

Is this reasonable?

The way to stop fighting is to make everyone incapable of fighting?

I have to say, if you consider it from this perspective, it is quite reasonable.

that is……

“Is this possible?”

"There is nothing that is impossible. In this world, everything is possible."

If it weren't for the fact that he was very clear about the elemental power and it was not a special power that he could absorb and cultivate, Suli would probably have become uncontrollably obsessed with the powerful feeling of having such enormous power.

As long as he has enough elemental power, he really thinks he can do anything. He is not affected by the various moves of this world, nor is he suppressed by the various physical laws of modern society.

——For example, the scene where the battle stopped at sea.

That thing contains some game skill settings related to time and space, and also adds forced control skills.

In this world, basically no one can understand his fighting method constructed through gaming thinking.

However, he was also thankful that he could not cultivate this highly malleable power, otherwise Suli would probably not have the opportunity to demonstrate the various skill concepts in the game in reality.

——If he could cultivate, Suli would not have come to the monster society. He would probably be no different from other time travelers in novels. He would just stay in a place like a college, study hard, and start the standard path of upgrading and growth for time travelers.

Suli: I never thought that within a year and a half, the old salted fish could be forced to become the source of something incredible.

Give yourself a compliment.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Suli's lips.

The light of the flames seemed to favor the young man, painting the outline of his body with an orange-red light.

Matilda sighed again, Sully was indeed likable.

Afterwards, the people who had set up camp there fell asleep.

A dreamless night.

When she woke up again, Matilda had recovered enough to stand up.

Rather than continue to be carried by the crow's claws, Matilda firmly stated that even if she had broken bones all over her body, she would use her willpower far beyond the imagination of ordinary people to fly high in the sky that could accommodate everything!

Wawa: "Please do your best."

Suli: "To prevent the life on land from being covered in blood when it is walking naturally, my suggestion is that you drink another bottle of medicine."

Matilda's injuries were too severe.

Sully had already used a lot of medicine to keep her alive.

However, the unconscious monster at that time obviously didn't know about this.

Matilda didn't even have the chance to hear Raven's initial comment: "The strength has been reduced by at least 80%, and the damage is permanent and cannot be cured."

After drinking the medicine, Matilda thought it was due to her injuries, so she flew with obvious discomfort and had no idea about the change in her strength.

After that, they headed to the aquatic tribe. Since they no longer had to worry about hiding when escaping, they only had to fly in a straight line between the two points. In less than half a day, the two men and the two monsters reached the sea.

This time, they learned a lot about the Feather Tribe. After communicating with other humans, Matilda, who had remained silent and dared not look at Elvi, joined the conversation between humans.

"You all know the situation of the Beast King. The Beasts have their own unique rules and systems. As a weakling, it is unrealistic to try to stop the Beast King from attacking the other two tribes."

"Decision-making power only comes from the hands of the strong."

"We can't defeat Clemens. It looks like the Aquatic Tribe, which has stopped fighting, will be doomed sooner or later."

Matilda took a deep breath and then broached the topic that she had been carefully avoiding.

"One tenth of Tiger's power is enough to kill me at my peak. Rather than saying that I fought him for a hundred moves, it's more like Clemens wanted to know the extent of his own power."

"I'm not the kind of guy who's always active on the battlefield, but since Barthalom has been acting as the king of the beasts for many years, I think I'm almost the same."

"But if you are lucky enough to think that you can defeat Clemens with your combat experience, then I can only say that this is the most stupid thing to do. It is like giving up the idea of ​​your brain."

Matilda grew calmer as she spoke.

Just like when she faced Asgari and Addison, as long as she wanted, she could find all kinds of reasons for expelling the dragon clan that seemed reasonable and could fool the people around her.

"Clemens's attitude towards the beastmen is clearly: if you don't want to compromise, then die."

At this point, the humans' understanding of Clemens's strength deepened again, and they all began to think deeply.

As for the monsters...

Leia was the first one to take the initiative.

"I say, Your Majesty, the great and noble Queen of the Feather Tribe, have you overlooked the fact that you are also a monster? Or is it easier for you to stand on the side of humans than to compromise with Clemens and make your already completely black heart show some red color?"

The mermaid looked meaningfully at the giant dragon, who remained silent.

"What's more..." Leia's eyes flickered, and she had some idea of ​​the merman's misleading statement, "The water tribe is not like the feather tribe. We can hide in the depths of the sea and naturally avoid a head-on battle with Clemens."

The latter part makes the former part less targeted, but both the dragon and Matilda understood what the mermaid hinted at.

Matilda sneered: "Didn't I just say that?"

"Unrealistic ideas are just dreams."

"Allowing the aquatic creatures to escape to the deep sea is simply impossible for Clemens." Matilda glanced at the mermaid coldly.

"A group of cowards hiding in the depths of the sea who could come back at any time and affect the beastmen... Why do you think Clemens would give you the opportunity to continue hiding instead of just eradicating them?"

"Indeed, monsters living on land have no obvious bonus when fighting in water, but what makes you think that 10% of your strength can kill my beast king, but 100% of your strength can't do it..."

"Go deep into the sea and kill you!"

Words have great power.

The mermaid's face suddenly turned as ugly as if she had eaten a fly.

Matilda sneered: "I don't care what you think, I am ready to fight Clemens to the end..."

As she spoke, her tone changed from sharp to gentle: "But committing suicide for no reason will never happen to me again."

Matilda kept her eyes on Sully for a full three seconds.

When the boy raised his head with a confused look, he saw Egbert with a wary expression on his face.

My intuition told Mr. Right Hand that this queen was approaching Euphia, the new president of the Mercenary Alliance in Sadina City.

Or is it... infinitely close to the Dark Saint Mavis?

That look...

It was like a fusion of worry, trust, emotion, praise, and a bit of joy...

Pie chart.

Matilda didn't notice Egbert. She continued, "As I said, compared to you who has an escapist mentality, and the dragons who are no longer monsters like me, and even the unicorn Barthalom who is a member of the beast race... No matter from which angle you look at it, these humans who seem to challenge the impossible are the most suitable for me to cooperate with."

This time, while talking, Matilda had already fixed her gaze on Elvi.

Admittedly, as a coward like her, because she stood by and did not try to change, and because she "shielded" the elders, she naturally committed an irreparable crime, but even so, Matilda had to admit one thing...

Instead of taking the responsibility like the little suns that grow up under the light, this shady guy might as well put all the blame on others.

She is just trash.

The even more rubbish elders council has not been avenged yet, so why should she worry about being hunted by a giant dragon?

Elvi finally spoke, looking up and saying, "For you, the Queen, rather than cooperating with humans after the Feather Tribe was attacked by the Beast Tribe, you were unwilling to continue to trust the Dragon Tribe before the attack?"

Matilda's eyes were clear: "If I say that I have always trusted the dragon clan, I am afraid you will not believe it. I am also very sorry for Victoria's death..."

"Shut up, who allowed you to call that name!" Elvi's eyes turned red in an instant.

Ever since Elvy's eye was pierced by Sully's sniper, her eye has turned gray and she can no longer see. Now that her other intact eye has turned red, the dragon's body will unmistakably reveal an aura of death.

"You're right, I'm not qualified to call that child by his name." Matilda accepted this criticism and hatred.

Whether it was Elvi or Addison who almost died at that time.

They all had reason to hate her as a queen who did nothing.

For someone as weak as her, it was not suitable for her to sit on the throne of queen for many years. Instead, it would have been more appropriate for her to choose to die many years ago before she was pushed onto that position.

The position that only the capable can hold was obtained by Elvi later, I am afraid that the entire Feather Clan would not be in such an embarrassing situation as it is now.

But reality is not imagination, and Matilda has survived until now.

Like mermaids, they are weaklings who can only escape.

But now, Matilda doesn't plan to escape.

She said: "I am an incompetent king, useless and despicable. I don't need your forgiveness, let alone the so-called whitewashing."

"But I still have to tell you..."

"I didn't do such a stupid thing as expelling the Dragon Clan from the Feather Clan. I'm not that stupid. Besides, I can tell you another thing."

"When you came back from human society, after writing the official document and reporting it, the elders had already thought of expelling you from the Feather Tribe. I don't want to understand the minds of those idiots, but I still know that they think that you have directly caused the double hatred of Leia, the mermaid governor, and Basalom, the unicorn who has fought countless battles on behalf of the king of the beasts."

"They don't want the possibility of the Water Tribe uniting with the Beast Tribe."

"I gave up on you, and in return I got the friendship of the water tribe that can't provide any practical help... Heh, those idiots..."

This is a fact.

If Matilda had real decision-making power, the queen at the time would never have given Elvy the chance to let Leia go.

The death of the mermaid governor will immediately cause the Feather Tribe to arouse the hatred of the entire aquatic tribe.

By participating in it, the success rate of upgrading the raven is increased like a panacea, and you can also use Leia's bones directly.

It doesn't matter, right?

After Leia's death, the mad dogs of the Water Tribe will attack the Feather Tribe at all costs.

The Feather Tribe can choose to ask for help from the Beast Tribe.

It would be great if we could get help, but if we don't, we won't be facing a double alliance between the Water Tribe and the Beast Tribe.

Don't forget, it was the unicorn and the mermaid who went to kill Elvi together.

It doesn't make sense that the mermaid is the only one who suffers while the unicorn doesn't have to pay any price for failure.

What a good situation!

But Matilda only saw the document submitted by Elvi after the decision of the elders had been made.

A series of stupid things happened, and the beginning, process and ending were no longer decided by Matilda.

Can she explain redeeming the dragon in this way?

Yes, but it is no longer necessary.

Even if she could explain it, Elvy would not forgive her.

If the death of the black dragon could be so easily erased, Matilda would never have admired Elvi.

Just leave it as it is now.

Whether it was hatred or resentment, Matilda took it all.

Leia was disappointed that the two did not fight. Barthalom, who had been silent but had listened to everything, finally spoke.

"I thought that since you knew I was a beastman, you would avoid me first when exchanging any information."

There might still be a possibility of an alliance with Leia, and Elvi is tentatively related to Matilda, but he is a unicorn of the beastman clan. Is he really suitable to participate in such a conversation?

Egbert said: "Lord Sully always has his own ideas."

"Your attitude towards the Beast King was already ambiguous. Secondly, if you are told this obviously confidential information and you are not allowed to pass it on under any conditions, then if you can escape from this sea environment one day, the Beast King will definitely ask you what you know during this period."

"Outdated information is worthless. As a subordinate, if you can't even give an honest answer, then you will probably lose the value of continuing to live. If you speak, it means that your loyalty will be doubted by the King of the Beasts; if you don't speak... do you think that a being that has grown to be like a monster is really unaware of the reality that he is a monster?"

"How could a guy like that not see through what you're hiding?"

Barcelona was so angry that he lost his temper.

Egbert told the truth.

If the Unicorn had not known that the King was a monster, how could he have sworn his loyalty to Clemens again and again?

Apart from loyalty, the power that Barsalom can provide is not worth mentioning to the beast king who has already reached the level of a monster.

But loyalty... is it really that important to monsters?

Bartholomew was reluctant to speak, but Matilda looked surprised.

She said, "In such a short time, the child has already thought so much?"

"Don't refer to Lord Sully as 'that child'. The length of life can be counted, but the breadth of the soul cannot be measured." Egbert has not forgotten Matilda's look, which was more fan-shaped than a pie-shaped statistic.

"This is just what I can think of. Lord Sully has already thought of some aspects. In terms of experience, Lord Sully will think of more."

As Egbert finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Sully.

Matilda seemed to be thinking about something. Leia, who had relaxed a little towards Sully because Sully had lifted the restrictions on him, became more alert again.

Elvi showed a very abnormal attitude of taking it for granted.

Unlike other monsters, she had labeled Suli as someone who could not be communicated with or have conversations with from the beginning.

There are so many different kinds of people in the world, but only Sully is smiling.

A smile that is more bitter than 100% chocolate.

He really didn't think that much...

Matilda was looking at him in a strange way now.

——It’s like looking at an old monster in the skin of a young man.

Sully still couldn't understand the look in her eyes, but Matilda directly expressed her thoughts!

"Your body is just that of a cub, but your soul is just like what that human (Egbert) said, it is so vast that it cannot be measured."

Sully: ...

He held it in for a long time and could only say one sentence: "Don't trust too much what Iger said."

Egbert: "I am not called that human being, I am called Egbert."

Roy rubbed Egbert's shoulder as he was introducing himself: "Young Master, I am reminding you that some of your assumptions about the current situation are wrong."

Egbert was shocked: "So what I just said was wrong?!"

He was stunned and dazed at first, then suddenly realized: "No, this should be correct... Wait... So that's it...!"

Egbert understood it completely.

His eyes are bright, his mind is clear, and his words are articulate.

"There is actually no need for us to let Barsalom leave the aquatic environment. Compared to the bad future he is destined to have after being suspected, what we need to pay more attention to is that Barsalom is more likely to be given new orders by the beast king if he is suspected. As long as the king gives some preface that if he fails to do it, it will be a real betrayal..."

"——Then we're in big trouble!"

“This is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountains.”

"I didn't think it through. I only considered that Barsalom was forced by the Beast King to turn to us. But I didn't think that when faced with immediate death and possible subsequent death, most intelligent life forms would prioritize avoiding immediate death. And this would make those with brains think that the next death might also be avoided..."

Egbert's words made Roy, who was just trying to tease him, open his mouth wide.

Lan Zhe sneered: "Quickly stop looking like you can stuff a whole cuckoo egg in your mouth."

Roy: swearing.jpg

As for Egbert...

"As expected of Lord Suli, you have already seen those possibilities so early!"

Suli covered his face, his facial features wrinkled, and he couldn't help showing an expression of pain.

Other monsters: So all humans are prophets? !

Drag him out and get the knife.

What's even more outrageous is that Egbert's attitude is always that compared to himself, Lord Sully is always smarter.

Sully: I'm not, I didn't, believe me!

But this act of self-rescue has long since failed.

Let's go.

...Sully actually chose to give up treatment.

Just like no matter how much he dislikes coriander, he would not trample on other people's coriander fields.

That's it.

Suli smiled a saintly smile, and his voice was so warm that it seemed as if he had a top voice card added: "What you see in me is not so much a side of me as it is a reflection of your own characteristics."

Egbert's previous attempt to get the mermaid experience pack resulted in him getting hammered and his face was bruised and swollen, and it was turning pink.

What is this?

It was clear that Lord Suli recognized his growth and pointed it out in front of everyone!

Egbert knew, of course, that he could not see all of Sully, but as long as he could see one side of him clearly, he would be happy enough.

To round it off, this sentence seems to be full of reading and understanding requirements, which is equivalent to Lord Suli praising him in front of many humans and monsters!

Egbert was happier than New Year's Day.

Sully, who was not happy and even a little withdrawn, showed a tired smile.

Matilda tried to interpret this smile and said in a dark tone: "I don't want to admit that the subtle thoughtfulness I see in you is a quality I also have."

"But there is one thing I cannot deny..." Matilda smiled so brilliantly that it blinded the dragon.

"Your existence may not make me realize life and understand the meaning of living, but you have made me know the 'right path' that I must take before I die."

Sully: ...as long as you are happy.

The author has something to say:
