Wrong, my skills refresh every week
Page 236
Two weeks of peaceful time passed.
People emerged victorious from liberating the evil god, and the wounded from each clan gradually recovered. With the belief of "healing the broken limbs of the predecessors", they set out again in the dungeon to raise money.
When they returned to the city with exhausted bodies and gathered in the tavern, a chain of crimes broke out...
"Damn it, I only made 2 faris a day. When will I be able to get enough money to buy prosthetic limbs for my seniors?"
The dwarf Dormu of the Manni Familia slammed his wine glass on the table. "What can we do? Let's take our time. At least we are back alive, right? As long as we are alive, dreams will come true sooner or later."
At this moment, Mordo, a human adventurer at another table, also made an unpleasant complaint:
"Tsk, the guild won't compensate us? We've made such a huge sacrifice..."
"What can we do? All the credit has been taken away by Loki's family."
"It was clearly Finn's plan, but it turned out that we were foolish enough to fall into the trap set by the Dark Faction."
"Now, apart from ourselves, who else remembers how our predecessors died?"
When Dolmu heard the voice, he looked over in astonishment. There were indeed a few familiar faces at the other table. He walked over with a glass of wine in hand:
"Brother, we have to find a way. We can't let our predecessors die in vain! We need justice!"
Sitting alone on the side, the elf Revis, who had lost all his companions, shouted under the influence of alcohol: "Yes, we want justice!"
The sound infected the adventurers from other clans at the table.
Wearing the robes that concealed his identity as a "freak", Naar, with his brows lowered, also roared: "Yes, we must expose Finn's crimes to the world! He is a despicable Palum who hides behind us and usurps our glory and blood. He is not worthy of the title of "Hero" at all."
"Yes, it has been like this since the Dark Age. No one remembers the seniors who sacrificed their lives. Everyone only knows that Finn led us to victory."
"This was all a plot by the evil Palum! This false [Hero] who stole the glory of others!"
"War Games..."
One of them, while drunk, shouted loudly: "War Game! We want to take back the glory that belonged to our predecessors through the war game!"
"Yes, if we unite everyone..., even the main gods will not ignore our power!"
The crowd was so excited that Mordo was stunned for a moment: "What can we do? They are Loki's family?!"
"Can we...win?"
Nar stepped on the table, attracting everyone's attention, and said, "Don't forget, it's not just us who were hurt by Finn, but also the real hero!"
"If we borrow the power of the "fairies", we can defeat even the "hero"!"
"You mean Lord Ciel? Can he still exert the power of Lord Alpha? Didn't he stay ill for two weeks in order to save us?" Revis reminded.
Nar smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? We still have our father! With Lady Pochi here, we can fight even the Nine Demon Princesses!"
At this moment, the adventurers once again recalled the pleasure of being suckled by Daddy Bear...
"Yes, if that lord joins us, we have hope of overthrowing Loki!"
"It doesn't matter if we fail. We will use the "Mirror of God" to expose Finn's crimes! Reclaim the glory of our predecessors! !"
The adventurers, under the influence of drunkenness, rushed out and made requests to their respective gods.
The next day...
An invitation letter for a war game jointly initiated by 20 clans appeared in front of Loki...
"What the hell is this? Finn!"
Chapter 345 Finn: Someone is blackmailing me?
"What is this?" Finn took the notice from Loki and frowned.
"An invitation to the war game."
"Oh?" Finn raised his eyebrows. "From Freya's family?"
He flipped through the envelope, and in his opinion, the only people in the city who could show hostility to Loki's family were probably Freya's family.
"No." Loki frowned, "It's a joint war game declaration of 20 factions in total."
"Ok?"
Finn was shocked. This joke was not funny. It meant that Loki had offended at least 20 gods and they had united to deal with them.
"Loki, what did you do? Kidnapped another girl?"
"No!" Loki jumped up and said, "The letter said that they wanted to publicly execute you because they felt that you were not worthy of the title of [Hero]."
"Me?" Finn was confused himself, so he opened the envelope and read it carefully.
After confirming the contents of the letter, his brows furrowed deeply:
"Is someone dissatisfied with the strategy I formulated earlier?"
"It seems so."
"Did they make a mistake?" Finn asked.
Start reviewing previous tactics.
First, the dark faction released the news of the "great secret treasure", and a large number of adventurers took the initiative to go and explore. The guild also issued an investigation commission and provided a commission fee.
Here, first of all, this group of adventurers took the initiative to go to the dungeon for profit. Secondly, the guild also made it clear that it might be a plot of the dark faction, and the purpose was just to investigate.
Finn said calmly, "Here, my order is to unite the scattered adventurers and let them form a coalition to prevent them from being divided and defeated. It's just a reminder. It shouldn't be considered that I subjectively asked them to go investigate. The problem is with the guild."
Finn only served to warn and prevent the dark faction from launching a sneak attack. Even if he didn't do so, those adventurers would have entered the dungeon and fallen into the traps on their own.
"What is controversial is that I received the intelligence from Astralia and the prophecy from Jester in advance. I concealed it and used the intelligence advantage to expand the results of the war."
In order to create greater strategic value, Finn chose not to leak the intelligence, but to proceed step by step and go with the flow.
From this perspective, he did seem to have taken advantage of those adventurers subjectively.
but……
Finn was first the [Hero] of Parum, then Finn of Loki's family, and then the commander appointed by the city...
The Loki family is not the "Lord of the People" or the "Messenger of Justice".
No matter how you look at it, you have no connection with other clans, and there is no need to give up your own interests for certain people.
Especially under the premise that concealing this information will bring more advantages to oneself, family, and even the city, there is absolutely no reason to sacrifice one's own interests and meddle in other people's affairs.
Theoretically speaking, any clan can be considered a potential opponent of each other. The current situation of Orario is actually similar to the 18-way coalition attack on Dong Zhuo.
He had already done his best by sending out his "noname" and tacitly asking for support from Astraea's family.
Hearing Finn's analysis, Loki was furious:
"What? Is that all?"
"If you want to blame us for concealing information, how about asking the guild to disclose the information after the 58th floor to me? Other business clans should also disclose their contacts and product formulas. Abolish the monopoly and lower the price of elixirs like Ciel did! By the way, don't sell the first-level weapons so expensively. Sell them to adventurers at cost price. With better weapons, won't fewer people die?"
Finn watched repeatedly as each clan explained the reasons for launching the war games.
"Well, I think someone is seizing on my flaws, misleading me with words, magnifying my faults, and using public opinion to attack me from a moral high ground."
Finn admitted that he was not a "benevolent lord" and that he always had his own selfish desires.
Anyone who maliciously interprets his actions and uses ambiguous speculation and rhetoric to guide others will find problems.
Especially for a commander like him.
In a battle, he can easily decide the life and death of some people. If he changes the tactical arrangement, the number of adventurers sacrificed may be different.
The same is true for this battle, with the smallest sacrifice in exchange for the greatest victory.
According to the current rumors, the message that Finn deliberately killed the adventurers is an excessively malicious interpretation.
This is just a basic tactic. Finn can't do such a stupid thing as telling every soldier the core secrets of the tactics for fear that the enemy doesn't know about it. She is not Valetta.
"The other thing is the prophecy about Jester." Finn said with a wry smile.
Loki put his hands on his hips and muttered, "This information is only circulated among our top factions. It is impossible for others to know it. Someone may use the result to maliciously hurt us."
"Even we gods cannot say that we know the future. That is... the butterfly effect. Jester's predictions could no longer be confirmed after the fight against "absolute evil" broke out."
Finn sighed, "That's right. We just assumed as a precaution that she might show up. I also asked Ciel to bring the ancient fairy with me."
"It's like betting on the possibility of a miracle."
"Even if the Immortal Clone really happens to appear at this time, we can still believe that Charles can bring us a miracle."
Finn admitted that it was partly due to his "intuition" that he let "noname" go with him.
As it turned out, he did not make the wrong choice.
From Finn's point of view, he had arranged all the joints as well as possible. The worst result was only the sacrifice of 800 clansmen and the annihilation of more than % of the dark factions.
Compared to the tens of thousands of deaths in the Great Protest, the cost is very small.
The only problem is...
"Some of what they said is indeed true. In the past, we have looked upon death too cheaply."
Adventurers die in Orario every day, and countless people die in the great struggle. People have no time to spread their so-called glory before they are thrown into a new war.
This results in that once a person dies, no one cares about him or her except their family members.
Only the strong ones who survive will be admired by the world.
This value system is distorted.
Finn sighed: "We really need to return the honor to the pioneers who truly laid the foundation for victory and peace."
Orario only has large-scale mourning ceremonies during the elegy, but even during the elegy, no one cares about the heroes buried in the cemetery except for a few well-known celebrities.
Any adventurer who dies in a battle against monsters will be buried in the cemetery for future generations to mourn.
It is also impossible to positively see what contributions he made to Orario during his lifetime.
"So, do you want to agree to this war game?" Loki asked.
"Of course, this is a good way to promote it." Finn licked his thumb. "Before that, we can spend money to build a "Monument" in the Central Guild to commemorate those who truly sacrificed for Orario and record the deeds of the heroes of the Age of Gods."
Chapter 346 Bert Enters Loki
The next day, Orario.
When the first rays of morning light shone on the city, casting the long shadow of the Tower of Babel, early risers suddenly discovered that Central Park was suddenly surrounded by a circle of construction fences.
Architects from the Gubernui tribe carried heavy rocks and worked near the Tower of Babel.
"What is this for?"
"Ah... I heard that they are going to build a memorial."
"The memorial? Isn't there one in front of the main gate of the guild headquarters?"
"It's not something that records ancient heroes. It's said to be built for people who have contributed to the city and the world since the Age of Gods."
"This includes the adventurers who died on the 27th floor."
"Is this true? If you fight against a dark faction and die, you can still be on the list?"
It is no wonder that passers-by were surprised. In the past, people still vividly remembered the incidents of a large number of corpses being piled together, burned at will, and then buried collectively in mass graves outside the city.
"Because the Dark Age is over. Didn't the [Hero] completely defeat the Dark Faction? So many evil gods were sent back."
"Good days are coming, and it's time to give the adventurers who protected us the honor they deserve."
Another worker put down his shovel, wiped his sweat and said, "I heard that the [Hero] seemed to have done something that angered the crowd? It seems that he deliberately sacrificed some adventurers to gain victory."
"Hush!" The old man's face changed drastically, and he made a gesture of silence and lowered his voice:
"If those adventurers don't sacrifice themselves, will they wait for the dark faction to attack us from the surface?"
"If you ask me, there will always be deaths when you are an adventurer, let alone in war. We just need to take care of ourselves."
At this time, a werewolf with a lightning scar on his face stopped not far away.
He put his hands in his pockets, hunched over, and snorted in dissatisfaction: "You're actually going to all this trouble for a bunch of rubbish. Ha, at best they're just a bunch of fools who don't know their own limits."
"Hey, what are you talking about?" The dwarf of the Manni clan, Dolmu, heard Bert's sneer and roared:
