Chapter 311 Awakening Awakening Awakening Awakening
The current situation of the orcs...how should I put it?
To put it simply and easily understood, the Violet Kingdom still regards orcs as a "race suitable for becoming slaves", and many countries also have this attitude.
The Anaconda Forest judged them as [a race that is not powerful and can easily become slaves], but this is already good.
In other words, they are more intelligent jackals.
If anything a pretty bad attitude...
Then the Holy See at this moment, or the area controlled by the Holy See...that is, the orcs are regarded as [one of the inherently evil races].
Obviously, this is not a good thing.
And what caused this result? What makes orcs become a low-status race in this world?
Is it a bad character?
No, maybe Nico is like this, but the orcs in this world cannot summarize it like this...
The correct answer is not strong enough.
The power here is not the concept of "personal power", but rather "the power of the whole".
Although there are extreme examples of [individual power], such as the giant dragon, they are too special and there is no need to discuss them.
The orcs lack a country of their own, lack allied races, and lack value.
Yes, a very counter-intuitive truth——
If you want status, then strength is secondary, and your own value to other races is primary.
But the current orcs do not have this value.
Imagine if the current situation of the orcs and mermaids were reversed... if the orcs occupied a sea.
Then it can produce high-quality and low-priced potions, and create the [Pearl Amulet Series] magic items unique to the orcs.
Then, the social status of orcs cannot be so low.
Because you have no friends, you have a low status. Because you have a low status, you have no friends... This is a cycle.
There are many ways to break this cycle.
One is to unite the orcs for the purpose of establishing a kingdom of orcs, while the other is naturally to find friends.
Find friends who also need help.
"The general said, we...oh, us."
The orcs who came to rescue the mermaids said this, and one of them explained: "They said we could come to rescue those mermaids who were imprisoned by the mermaid king."
"Except for mermaids, all other sea races can be saved, and there are other races that will be expelled by the Holy See. We can all help."
"If they have nowhere to go, they can take them to the base where we are now. They may be able to help us later."
Regarding the words of these orcs, Belsi asked aloud: "Who is the general? And...where is your current base?"
"..."
Regarding Belsi's question, these orcs looked at each other in confusion, and then felt that there was no need to hide it.
"The General is our current leader."
One of the orc mage said this, and he paused: "We are now over there in the Luoan Anaconda Forest...unifying our tribes."
A tribe of orcs.
The mage girl was thinking. She didn't want to think about the goals or dreams of these orcs. She was more concerned about one thing.
"How are you going to save people?"
Regarding the mage girl's words, the orcs looked at each other and scratched their heads: "We didn't expect... we didn't expect that the invisibility would be seen through."
"Maybe we have to wait for the general to come and listen to the general's arrangements..."
"Um."
At that time, the two orc mages took turns turning on the invisibility, but they were discovered within a few steps of entering. If they hadn't run fast, they would have been caught.
The mermaid heard the siren but failed to find the infiltrator. The subsequent patrols became more intensive and vigilant.
In fact, I wasn't so vigilant in the first place.
[It feels barely believable. 】
"Um……"
Belsi responded softly to Seven Island Semu's words, and then sighed: "I am Belsi, we come from the Northern Territory of the Violet Kingdom."
The three orcs didn't react at all to Belsi's words. They just nodded to show that they understood...it seemed like they didn't recognize Belsi.
This is normal, after all, Belsi is only famous in the Violet Kingdom, and occasionally people will recognize her abroad.
But obviously these orcs were not included.
"The people we want to rescue are my subordinates Hailei Shafei Qingshui, Shen Rui Shafei Qingshui, and their tribesmen."
Belch said, explaining the situation in brief words: "If you want to cooperate with us, you need to take the lead in targeting our companions."
"..."
In this regard, the orcs hesitated for a moment, then communicated with each other and asked: "Are you in a hurry? We need to go out and discuss with the general first."
[Let’s go out and meet the orc general. 】
Belsi also agreed with Semu Nananoshima's point of view, and then the few people and the orcs temporarily left the prison area.
To be honest, when it comes to the general...
Although he didn't know if it was true, the first thing Belxi thought of... was the orcs he saw at the Northland Church.
That is, the smart orc who wears a cloak and armor and also says "I" instead of "I".
It was majestic and gave people the feeling of a general at that time.
Later, in the tavern in the city of Atlantis, Belsi and his group saw the [Great General] mentioned by the three orcs, which was a large orc about two meters tall.
"We meet again, dragon and slime."
The orc said this. Wearing a gorgeous armor, he slowly stood up from the sofa, his majestic appearance was familiar.
Just as Belch thought, it was the orc who had cooperated with Nesta and several people at the Northland Church that day.
【Huh? Isn't this the orc from a year ago? The one who saved the orc who was impaled in the Northland Church. 】
"We meet again, General."
Nananoshima Semu and Belsi knew each other, but the mage girl was confused and asked hesitantly: "Who are you?"
To be honest, this orc gives the mage girl a unique feeling.
Um...or I feel the same as everyone else.
It is similar to races with normal thinking, but is obviously different from orcs...the way they speak appears to be full of wisdom.
"I am a guy who is looking for a way out and trying to help all orcs find a way out. I want to change something."
The orc general said with a wry smile: "It's probably hard to understand what I'm saying...and hard to understand."
In fact, it is not difficult to understand or understand.
It's nothing more than wanting to change the status quo of the orcs.
"That's not true, it just feels a bit difficult."
Belshe said, thinking about the orcs in his territory: "I can't imagine what would happen if the orcs became [managers] or performed paperwork."
At this point, the orc general thought so too.
"I know, because we orcs are born warriors... and we can only be destined warriors."
With that said, the orc general sighed, and then said without saying anything more on this issue: "Come and cooperate, Prince Belsi."
It seems that the other party knows about him.
"Just call me Belsey."
In response to Bel Xi's words, the orc general also nodded: "Then it's the same with me, my name is [First War General]."
"..."
【……】
"This naming method..."
The mage girl said that she always felt very familiar. She hesitated and said: "So, do you know the second general... the second general and the third general? They are also orcs, and they often mention their brothers."
"..."
"!!!"
——————————
"Your Majesty, it's not that I want to disturb you and your granddaughter... You can only communicate with me reasonably during this period of time."
David Megan said, looking into the Pope's eyes that had turned into snakes: "Previously you thought God could save the world, and then you thought about saving the world yourself... But none of you are qualified."
"..."
The Pope was silent. The old man didn't say anything. He just waited quietly for David Megan to speak.
Nesta looked at David Megan, who still had some seaweed on his body, and said, "Your daughter said she wanted to kill you."
David: "Uh uh uh..."
To be honest, David Megan was already mentally prepared: "I will never appear in front of ████ again."
"..."
"What?"
Nesta questioned, always feeling that there was something unclear in David Megan's words... He actually said it aloud, but couldn't hear it clearly.
"Huh...she's my daughter."
David Megan said, and spoke again: "You can't hear clearly, right? My daughter's name - ████ Megan."
"..."
Yes, I can't hear you clearly.
Nesta had no idea what David was talking about, except that she knew it was a [four-syllable] name. She looked at her grandfather.
But she only responded by shaking her head slowly.
It means that even the Pope cannot hear that name clearly, or rather... is not qualified to hear that name.
"So, she is already qualified to be Belsi's companion, just as qualified as you... the chosen one chosen by both gods."
David Megan said this and looked at Nesta, whose eyes were very wide: "How does it feel to be carrying the mission of freeing those two gods?"
"?!"
Nesta didn't know how the man in front of her knew that. She looked at her grandfather who also had his eyes wide open.
You know, she didn't even tell her grandfather this secret.
"Nesta?"
The Pope asked with some confusion, then paused and shook his head, deciding not to care about this question.
The old pope looked at this man who seemed to know a lot: "You said before that my path... would be an obstacle to salvation?"
Rather than what happened to his granddaughter's mission and what happened to the two gods, he wanted his questions answered.
"Because, the tenth level... and snake scale powder are mutually exclusive."
David Megan said this, looked at the Pope, and answered: "Use Snake Slough! Master Snake Slough! People who control Snake Slough can naturally reach the world, but people who [turn into Snake Slough] cannot reach it. The tenth level!"
"If you want to be assimilated into snake scale powder, that is, the fragments of snake sloughs, you will indeed not go crazy and lost because of your faith... but that is meaningless for saving the world!"
"You don't understand the tenth level, you don't understand what it is...it's different from all the previous nine levels."
David Megan said, talking about the source he didn’t know where he came from: “Even if it’s just one level, you can jump to the tenth level.”
"Even if you are a weak and powerless Level 0, you only need to realize it in a moment, and you only need to retain that obsession and persistence."
"There's no need to become a god...it's not necessary."
David Megan said, looking at the Pope with a skeptical expression, he sighed: "The title Tenth Level should not exist."
"That's not level ten...that's level one hundred, one thousand levels!"
"To reach that [realm], what is needed is not strength, but awareness... awareness, awareness, awareness, awareness."
David Megan, who repeated this word, looked at the Pope who still didn't believe it. He had no choice but to say: "You don't have the consciousness, Your Majesty."
The Pope frowned at his words.
"If you are talking about...the consciousness of saving the world...I have it."
Looking at the Pope who was speaking slowly, David Megan smiled: "Have you? Then I want to ask you, have you ever had a moment...even if it was just a moment."
“Have you ever thought about [Can the world really be saved?] or [Is the path of salvation I chose really right?]?”
"..."
Just kidding, how could it not be... How could anyone in this world not think of such content.
The Pope frowned, his expression saying it all.
"Then you are not qualified. You don't have that awareness."
David Megan, who said this, was sitting on a chair in the church, as if he were a believer being preached by the Pope.
However, it was him who was preaching at this moment.
"Even someone who thinks [the world can never be saved!] has a better chance of reaching the tenth level than you... as long as he is determined enough."
David Megan looked at the stained glass above the church and watched the light shining through the glass into the church.
"Let me tell you what the real [Savior] is like."
As he spoke this way, he gently repeated the words that seemed familiar to everyone: "That's a person who never seems to be confused."
"He is a person who does not need a reason when facing [salvation]."
"Someone who will save the world for some ridiculous reason."
As he spoke, different words from countless reincarnations were spoken by the same dragon... reflected in David's thoughts.
【Why save the world? Because the world is there. 】
【ah? You ask me... I'm also looking for the answer to the question, I'm just a passing brave man. 】
[Because Sister Black Witch said she wanted me to save her. 】
[If I don’t save the world, why should I? 】
[The prison guard is not here, please help me. 】
"..."
"A person who is truly enlightened will never talk about that! Instead, he goes to save the world just because he wants [thank you] for respect!"
David Megan said, pointing his finger at Nesta.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"maybe……"
The Pope spoke slowly. He had to admit that he was defeated by the little guy named David...or maybe he was old.
I don't want to argue with the junior who has the same destination.
"I will not give up my current ideas...but if one day, a child full of [consciousness] stands in front of me..."
"I'm an old guy, just give way."
