Chapter 250 Debate: Am I the one using the resources?
"Yelori magic, ice fluttering, like snow crystals."
A beam of ice magic shot directly towards Wang Mo. She had long been annoyed with this human.
"Master, get out of the way!" Luo Li exclaimed.
Faced with this sudden attack, Wang Mo panicked, but because the situation was urgent, she had transformed before coming and she jumped up to narrowly avoid the attack.
"Ice Princess, please don't do this. We don't want to hurt you, and humans are also working hard to protect the environment. Can you please give humans some time?"
Wang Mo dodged subsequent attacks while giving earnest advice.
But who knew that Han Bingjing just smiled coldly and shot a few more ice cones, "Time? How much time do I have left? And can you prove that humans are protecting the environment just by your empty words?"
Wang Mo was speechless for a moment. Yes, at this stage, how could she find evidence of human protection of nature to show to the Ice Princess? On the contrary, evidence of human destruction of nature was everywhere.
Just when Wang Mo was stunned, the ice cone with cold light had already come in front of her and was about to pierce into her body.
Shui Qingli, who was standing by, saw this and a rare look of panic appeared on his usually cold face. He immediately attacked the ice cone as soon as the water column arrived.
However, a metal chain is faster than the water column.
The chain instantly wrapped around Wang Mo's arm and quickly pulled her away before the ice spike pierced her chest.
It’s Wenxi.
She pulled Wang Mo into the arms of the Ye Luoli warrior who was waiting nearby, and took two steps forward leisurely with Zhou Yin, "Since the Ice Princess said that humans are dirty, can I have a few words with you?"
“Or is it that the famous Ice Princess of Wonderland doesn’t even leave room for humans to explain themselves?” Wen Xi had a smile on her face, but upon closer inspection one could detect some malice in her.
At this moment, her expression was almost identical to Zhou Yin's beside her.
Obviously, she was assimilated not only by Wen Zheng, but also by Zhou Yin.
"You said, I'm not that autocratic." Han Bingjing frowned.
Although she wanted to get rid of this group of humans right now, she finally condensed an ice throne in mid-air and sat down, listening to the sophistry of the tiny humans.
Seeing the undisguised critical look in Han Bingjing's eyes from a superior to an inferior, Wen Xi's smile stiffened for a second, but quickly recovered.
Obviously, she doesn't have as good a skill in cultivating her Qi as Lugal.
"Ice Princess, you said that the glaciers are melting due to human activities, which makes you weaker and weaker, so you must destroy humans, right?"
Han Bingjing was a little confused. She didn't understand what Wenxi wanted to do by saying these well-known words?
But since she had been promised a chance to explain, Han Bingjing answered truthfully: "Yes, and I am doing this not only for myself, but also for thousands of natural fairies."
"So many lives are being persecuted because of human behavior. For the good of nature, humans should just disappear."
The Ice Princess' words carried an undisguised murderous intent, but Wen Xi just nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Can I ask, how many years have you lived so far?"
Han Bingjing became more and more confused. "Ice and snow are a power that has existed since ancient times. I was born millions of years ago. Why are you asking this?"
Wen Xi suddenly laughed, "If that's the case, then Ice Princess, you should know about the periodic changes in the natural environment."
"We are in an interglacial period now, so isn't it natural for the temperature to rise? Changes in the Earth's orbit and increases in solar radiation are both factors that contribute to the melting of glaciers."
But Wenxi shrugged again, "Of course, I don't deny that humans are primarily responsible for the melting of glaciers, but to exclude governance and only talk about destruction is undoubtedly playing rogue."
"Whether it's the Qilian Mountains or the Mortrach Glacier, humans have taken steps to protect them, and the local melting rate of the glaciers has been reduced by 20 to 70 percent. We are also now working hard to develop new energy sources to reduce the greenhouse effect."
"If you don't believe me, you can feel the glacier's growth now. I believe the Ice Princess should be able to do it."
Seeing Han Bingjing's gradually silent expression, Wen Xi's originally smiling expression suddenly turned serious, "Glaciers are also very important to humans. Humans will not let glaciers disappear."
"If the glaciers disappear completely, humans will also face severe problems such as a sharp rise in sea levels, the destruction of the food chain, and a scarcity of fresh water resources."
"Please believe that we humans will not do such a thing as exhausting all resources."
What he said was both logical and statistical, and was far more convincing than the PPT presented by the Ye Luoli warriors in the original book.
Human destruction is real, but Wenxi is a human being after all, so of course she has to speak from the perspective of humans.
Han Bingjing was obviously shaken, but this heavy snow was not only for herself, but also for all the natural fairies who died because of humans.
"But how do you explain the animals that die because of humans and the resources that are wasted?"
“I don’t deny it, but am I the one who used these resources?”
Wen Xi completely restrained her gentle demeanor and looked straight into Han Bingjing's eyes.
"What do you mean?"
"My meaning is very simple. I am just an ordinary civilian whose parents have a little money. I have never worn fur. I will throw the garbage on the roadside into the trash can and I dare not even open the faucet too much."
"I don't admit to the crimes you mentioned of persecuting animals and wantonly wasting resources!"
Wenxi turned around and pointed to a snow-covered empty space in the distance. "That used to be a golf course, but its annual water consumption exceeds that of a million people."
Then she pointed to a square in the city center and said, "That is the most famous square in Yan City. The furs sold there are all real, but few ordinary people go in to shop."
"The top wealthy people travel by private jet, and their carbon emissions far exceed the normal living consumption of people in a city."
As she spoke, Wen Xi sighed helplessly. She looked up at Han Bingjing, her eyes full of questions.
"The richest 10% of the world's population is responsible for 50% of carbon emissions, so why should millions of ordinary people share the consequences?"
"If wealth cannot be shared equally, then why should sin be shared equally? If you release a blizzard on the whole world now, only innocent civilians will be frozen to death."
"Rich people have thousands of ways to avoid sudden natural disasters. Is this what you want?"
There was not much personal emotion in Wen Xi's tone, just a hint of doubt, but it was this kind of calmness that dealt a serious blow to Han Bingjing.
"I didn't, I just don't want to disappear..." Han Bingjing's eyes were full of struggle. After all, she didn't want to bear the guilt of killing all mankind.
But at this moment, Zhou Yin suddenly chuckled, "I tell you this just because I want an answer."
It is also to wear down your will.
"Now, you can continue, but we will stop you as well."
Wenxi will not deny the destruction that humans have caused to nature, but newborns have never destroyed the environment. Should we wipe them out now just for the sake of possible destruction in the future?
No.
The Ice Princess is a fairy, and there is nothing wrong with her standing on the fairy's side. Wenxi is a human, and there is nothing wrong with her standing on the human's side.
There is no right or wrong in a dispute over positions, only winning or losing.
