There is indeed a problem.
After hearing Gu Zhuang's words, Lin Ziluo reacted.
He asked in reply, "No way, the Knights' welfare benefits are quite good, and didn't the Emperor say he wanted to do something that would go down in history?"
Gu Zhuang gave a wry smile, nodded, and said, "You're right. The Knights' welfare, treatment, and authority are all very good, and they are indeed going to do something that will go down in history."
"Then why did Lord Gu say that?" Lin Ziluo asked puzzledly.
Gu Zhuang did not answer directly, but instead asked: "Little Brother Lin, what do you think is the biggest difference between the Child of Destiny and those of us who control the demon gods?"
difference?
In terms of combat effectiveness, except for Lin Ziluo, the combat effectiveness of the Children of Destiny is generally weaker than that of the Demon God.
In terms of abilities, the awakened abilities of the Child of Destiny are relatively limited and not as strong as those of the Demon God.
However, there is one very important point about Destiny's Child...
"The use of abilities. Those who master the demon god need to consume their lifespan to summon the demon god and gain abilities. They will not use them easily unless it is absolutely necessary."
"But because the Child of Destiny has his own abilities, he can use them flexibly and freely, with basically no side effects," Lin Ziluo explained.
"That's right! Brother Lin sees it very clearly."
Gu Zhuang nodded to confirm his statement.
"Back when the four high walls were being built, countless casualties were suffered by all of our families that controlled the demon gods. Basically, those who inherited the bloodline had to spend 90% of their lifespan just to summon the demon gods to move giant metal blocks."
"It was through this continuous struggle that we built four high walls, protecting humanity from the invasion of zombie giants and giving us a home to live in."
Gu Zhuang began to recount the previous history, and Lin Ziluo had already guessed something from his words.
"Originally, I thought that the sacrificial spirit of our ancestors would be passed down, but I never expected that a hundred years of comfort would make them lose their ancestral spirit. Now, the first solution to the problem is..." Gu Zhuang sighed deeply and said helplessly.
"It was actually the Son of Destiny who built the city wall." Lin Ziluo added.
Gu Zhuang first mentioned the difference between the Children of Destiny and those who control the demons, and then mentioned the sacrifices made when the high wall was built.
Lin Ziluo combined the content of the conversation he had overheard before and finally understood Wu Jia's intention.
Wu Jia's original intention was to avoid fighting and defend himself.
Obviously, it is basically impossible to ask those people who control the demons to sacrifice their lives and summon the demons to build the city wall.
So Wu Jia placed his hopes on the Child of Destiny who could use his abilities at will.
Relying on the special abilities of the Child of Destiny to build high walls can solve the side effects mentioned above.
Therefore, the Theia Knights formed by Wu Jia did not kill zombie giants as Lin Ziluo had thought before, but were actually a top-notch construction worker!
Sure enough, this job is a pit.
For tasks like building high walls, if Lin Ziluo chooses to use all his abilities, such as flying, great strength, storage space, etc., he can complete it very well and even get a lot of rewards.
However, killing the zombie giant is the basis for increasing one's strength and the main purpose of entering the dungeon.
Whether it is the equipment and props dropped by the zombie giant, or the soul beads obtained by killing the zombie giant.
These are what he really needs.
"Brother Lin is much smarter than I thought."
Gu Zhuang was very surprised to see that Lin Ziluo could always answer the questions directly and to the point, and he sighed quickly.
"But there's one thing my little brother absolutely couldn't have imagined: the Emperor has no intention of rebuilding our original high wall!"
As Gu Zhuang spoke, he became angry again.
"He thinks we don't need to have such a large living area, nor do we need to support so many civilians."
"So he plans to tear down parts of the four high walls, combine the demolished materials with existing materials, and rebuild a circular wall around the main city of Tia that is large enough to cover the entire area. This way, fewer resources will be saved."
"Has he ever thought that his decision will expose 95% of the civilians of the Tia Empire to the threat of zombie giants!" Gu Zhuang said gritting his teeth.
This was the main reason for his quarrel with Wu Jia.
And Lin Ziluo finally figured out these problems.
Wow, no wonder Wu Jia said he wanted to do something that would go down in history.
Building a wall high enough to protect those humans is indeed a historic event.
"Okay, even if we abandon all the civilians and finally build a high wall, what happens next?"
"After the zombie giants slaughter those civilians, won't they still have ideas about the humans within the walls? Will they continue to attack the walls?"
"Maybe the new wall can hold out for another hundred years, but what about after that? It will definitely go back to the same old path."
"Also, during the construction of the wall, what if a zombie giant attacks? We have to tear down the high wall..."
The two talked as they walked towards the exit of the Imperial Palace.
Gu Zhuang finally found someone to talk to, and told Lin Ziluo everything he had just discussed with Wu Jia.
Through the relevant description of Guzhuang, Lin Ziluo finally figured out Wu Jia's general image.
In some ways, Wu Jia is a little bit like me, both of them are egoists who focus on interests and enjoyment.
He collected all the wealth in the country and gathered all the materials in order to build a sufficiently prosperous imperial palace so that he could enjoy his imperial life.
He chose to build a new high wall in order to escape the war with the zombie giants and to ensure that he would be happy enough during the days he survived.
As for what will become of the country and humanity after your death, who cares? Just be happy.
Lin Ziluo would not comment on whether Wu Jia's behavior was right or wrong.
But there is now an obvious point of conflict between them - interests!
Obviously, Wu Jia's actions touched upon Lin Ziluo's interests.
He came to the dungeon to kill zombie giants to become stronger, not to build city walls and become a builder.
"So you told the emperor all this, but he still didn't react?" Lin Ziluo asked, looking at the gate of the imperial palace.
"Yes, he has made up his mind, and those old guys who control the demons and are afraid of death welcome his decision, so there are still many people supporting him now." Gu Zhuang said helplessly.
As they were talking, the two of them had already walked out of the Imperial Palace.
Lin Ziluo looked back at the Imperial Palace and sighed helplessly.
Well, I’m afraid this road is blocked.
I have to choose a new path.
