Chapter 2448 Soldier Master
Chapter 2448 Soldier Master
To be honest, whether it is towards Yuying or Monica, Mo Tan's various behaviors should not be classified as the perpetrator of "Stockholm Syndrome". Although he is indeed very excessive, if we only look at his standpoint, we will find that he is actually always on the side of the victim.
The most abstract point in the above summary is that both Yuying and Monica were almost only harmed by Mo Tan, that is, "Tan Mo" in the [Realm of Innocence], and this not only does not conflict with the fact that they are in the same position as each other, but also does not conflict with the fact that Mo Tan should not be called the "perpetrator" in theory.
Thus, a wonderful paradox was born.
That is, although there were many people with different and even hostile positions in the incident, and the two victims suffered considerable shock and harm both physically and mentally, fundamentally, these injuries had nothing to do with those who should have caused them harm.
In the end, we will come to the conclusion that Yuying and Monica suffered great harm, and the person who caused the harm to them was their companion Mo Tan. On this basis, those who should have caused harm to the two failed to succeed. As for the reason why they failed... nine out of ten times it can also be attributed to Mo Tan. After all, based on different positions, he did have sufficient reasons and motives to take action against those who intended to harm himself or the two girls, and he did so.
Up to this point, the seemingly nonsensical paradox we had before seemed to be explained again, that is, because the "Tan Mo" in the [Realm of Innocence] has a high probability of causing great damage to everyone indiscriminately, so while he protected Yuying, Monica and the like from the enemy, he also made the two of them exhausted and embarrassed.
All in all, although Yuying, who had been left in the fog and "AFK" for who knows how long, had gotten used to it, Monica, who had not spent the "Blood Grudges in the Window" quest line with Mo Tan like the former, was experiencing this for the first time. Even though she had seen a lot of the world since she was a child, and had been trained with a strong will and spirit in "Female Bee" over the years, she couldn't stand it after being simply strengthened by Mo Tan.
But to be fair, it was normal for Monica to be unable to stand it. After all, even His Highness Xiu Blaysen, whom she regarded as a beacon and idol, who created the "Female Bee" and unified the Violet Empire at an extremely efficient speed after becoming the royal spokesperson, and who shocked countless people... often couldn't stand Mo Tan.
Monica Stewart has a huge advantage over Yuying and Xiu Bracen, that is, as a member of the [Female Bee] and a pawn under the Regent, she does not need to get along with Mr. Tan Mo on an equal footing from the beginning. So in this situation, Xiu and Yuying would be furious and have blisters in their mouths, but Monica only needs to repeatedly emphasize the other party's identity in her mind and lower her own position infinitely.
then--
"You're right."
After a short downtime, Monica gave Mo Tan a somewhat stiff smile, and said very hypocritically to the man in front of her, Mr. Tan Mo, who was certainly not ugly, but at best just an ordinary handsome guy, not as good-looking as His Royal Highness the Regent or even the Deputy Captain Hogel in Jackdaw Castle, "I think you are very handsome too."
"Oh."
As a result, Mo Tan just said something indifferent, and then walked briskly past Monica. He didn't even bother to look at her the whole time, and walked into the depths of the canyon on his own.
"Ah, please...please wait for me!"
Monica, who was left in the Gray Forest by Mo Tan not long ago, cried out softly, then trotted after him, walking in front of Mo Tan in a particularly obedient and sensible manner. She drew the long sword at her waist to be on guard, and said in a tone that was almost like crying: "Please let me protect you in front!"
"Okay."
Mo Tan nodded obediently and said in a brisk tone, "Lead the way."
"Uh-huh!"
Monica, fearing that the other party would disappear for ten days or half a month in the blink of an eye, nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking at rice. Fearing that Mo Tan would go back on his word, she watched the other party's figure with her peripheral vision, while carefully holding her weapon and leading the way.
For a long time afterwards, neither of them spoke.
Monica, who was walking in front, was feeling nervous, but perhaps because she was too nervous, she didn't know what to say to liven up the atmosphere. The man behind her, Mr. Tan Mo, who was very talkative most of the time, even too talkative, now seemed unusually focused, squinting his eyes as if he was thinking about some very philosophical question.
Of course, Monica would never take the initiative to ask. After all, in her opinion, if she really couldn't resist her curiosity and turned to ask Mr. Tan Mo what he was thinking about, the latter would most likely say something shocking or refreshing, in short, it was difficult for someone like her to guess.
Just like that, starting with Mo Tan's silence, this rather complicated journey suddenly became quiet, but even so, Monica still felt at ease.
Perhaps it was because Mo Tan, who was walking behind her, did not lighten his steps or conceal his breath, Monica, who always felt that she was not alone, relaxed for a rare time. Even though there were some religious coalition, some God-Destroying Society, some old undead spirits, and some divine magic barriers here, this lady was still able to remain calm and peaceful.
The reason was very simple. Even though the other party was a thug who chose to wake himself up with a lot of slaps among countless ways, a madman who laughed wildly and shouted about betting on both sides as soon as he left the power range of Jackdaw Castle, and a scum who threw himself in the forest for several days without paying any attention to him just after he finished shouting -
But when he is around, it seems as if all the troubles in the world have been gathered on him, and nothing can bother me anymore.
[Just letting him do whatever he wants without having to think about anything... doesn't seem bad? ]
Monica, who has been working intensively since she became the regent of the Violet Empire through self-study, either solves dangers or becomes danger every day. This thought suddenly flashed through her mind, as if we have worked hard to complete the initial stage of entrepreneurship, made great efforts and achieved some visible, tangible and enviable results, and finally got off work on a snowy winter night, climbed into bed tiredly without taking a shower or drying our hair, and turned on the electric blanket to high speed, which only lasted for a moment but was real.
Forget the complicated work, forget the passionate struggle, and forget the ideal life.
Even if it's just in imagination, I would like to be a salted fish or a small fish who lives a mediocre life but doesn't cause heartburn or brain damage and doesn't bring disaster or trouble.
"puff--"
Then, Monica, who had longed for justice since childhood and was looking forward to following His Highness Xiu to accomplish great things when she grew up, was amused by her own idea of being useless, unambitious, and irresponsible.
"Ha~"
At the same time, Mo Tan, who was walking behind, also gave a faint laugh of unknown meaning, took two quick steps, walked side by side with Monica, and whispered, "We're here."
"what?"
Monica was stunned at first, and then she suddenly noticed that many three-dimensional "shadows" had appeared around her.
Then, at the moment when Monica subconsciously stopped, those shadows turned into "people" and cast curious but not obviously hostile eyes at the two guests.
Like the [Dusk Crow Eastern Expedition Army], these members of the [God-Destroying Society] are no different from normal people visually, except for the relatively uniform black-bottomed red-lined hooded cloaks with the God-Destroying Society emblem. Although these people do not have many expressions, they seem to be difficult to associate with the lunatics mentioned by Hogel. In particular, in Monica's opinion, even Mr. Tan Mo next to her is more treacherous than them in terms of perception. "Hello, dear idols~"
Mo Tan grinned, walked past Monica, and opened his arms to the members of the God-Destroying Society who seemed to have emerged from the air in front of him. He said with a smile on his face, "I am a [Non-believers] from outside. I hate those hypocritical sanctimonious charlatans the most. Not long ago, my good friend and I used a little trick to win the trust of the owner of the Jackdaw Castle, Hogel Sid, and made the old idiot who converted to the Blood God think that I was a blessing and hope. In the end, we succeeded in making him let down his guard and let us go around from the back to this free canyon. Now... I hope you can take me to the [Seat of the Lord of Arms] to have a few words with that adult."
"Mr. Tan Mo!"
Monica was immediately startled, and she tugged at the latter's clothes secretly and whispered, "Let's not be so ostentatious for now, and build good relationships with everyone little by little..."
"This way."
A hunchbacked lion half-orc with sparse blond hair waved at the two of them. His tone was not disgusting, but not enthusiastic either: "I'll take you there."
"Oh! Ok thank you!"
Mo Tan thanked the lion uncle in front of him with tears of gratitude, and then followed him happily. He turned to Monica who was standing there in a daze and asked, "What did you just say?"
Monica: “…Nothing.”
"Then hurry up and catch up."
"……Oh."
Just like that, the two of them, led by a member of the God-Destroying Society, walked deeper into this 'gathering place'. Along the way, in addition to the lush natural scenery, members of the God-Destroying Society wearing black cloaks could be seen almost everywhere. They were either standing together in groups of three or four talking, or sitting alone in a quiet corner in a daze. They looked normal and did not look like a notorious terrorist organization that had been demonized to the point that it could almost stop children from crying in the Northeast Continent.
Unlike Jackdaw Castle, the core area of the God-Destroying Society in this canyon looks very "simple". There are no functional facilities such as city walls, armories, and parade grounds. There are only a series of simple and plain houses scattered around. Even these houses have a more obvious ethnic style than the God-Destroying Society.
[If there are obvious emblems of the God-Slayer Society everywhere, and there are a lot of weapons, supplies and other things placed everywhere, this place is no different from the farms around Saramoon...]
Monica was nervous as she kept half a step behind Mo Tan, while carefully observing the surrounding environment. In the process, she gradually realized that there seemed to be a huge deviation from her understanding of the [God-Destroying Society].
Because the lion orc did not walk very fast, it was not until ten minutes later that the three of them appeared on a path that was obviously less traveled than before.
However, apart from the fact that the number of 'passers-by' around gradually decreased and the remaining 'passers-by' all looked very strong, this path was actually no different from the one the three had walked through before. What was even more difficult for Monica to understand was probably the legendary [Seat of the Lord of Arms]. It was just a wooden high chair that was not ugly, but its suggested retail price would definitely not exceed two gold coins, and it even had some paint peeling off. Not only that, its owner could not even reach the ground with his feet when sitting on it!
"Hello."
The dwarf with a very shiny head and white beard smiled and nodded to Mo Tan and Monica. After a moment's hesitation, he chose the latter between 'jumping off the chair' and 'standing on the chair', and said in a kind tone: "Welcome to the last gathering place of the God-Destroying Society. I am the leader here, Iparis Solarion. Of course, you can also call me [Soldier Master]."
"Hello, Mr. Bingzhu, I am the lawless blasphemer Anthony Dabbs."
Mo Tan grinned and ostentatiously took off his hat to the old man in front of him: "You can call me Annie or Tan Mo."
"My name is Monica Stewart."
Monica bowed to the military leader with fear and trepidation, and said respectfully, "I am Mr. Tan Mo's subordinate."
"It's great to see you. After all, there haven't been any guests here for a long time."
The soldier master crossed his legs and sat back on the chair. He shrugged and said, "As far as I can remember, the last outsider was the dragon boy named Nofler Chiyi. He seemed to want to burn this place down. In fact, he almost succeeded, but unfortunately he accidentally injured Ling Lan, which triggered Si Zi's rampage."
"Please wait a moment, Your Excellency."
Mo Tan politely interrupted the old man's sigh and suggested, "To be honest, Monica is actually a very shy person, so could you please send these idle people around to play somewhere else first, and come back to stand guard after we finish our business?"
"can."
The old man nodded without hesitation, and then waved his hand to dismiss several members of the God-Slayer Society, including the lion half-orc, who were supposed to be guards, and smiled, "Is this all right?"
"Well, it's alright."
"So, Mr. Tan Mo, what exactly do you mean by business?"
"That's too much."
"For example?"
"For example, you have been
What did you see through Monica's eyes? "
