Chapter 1748

Regarding the various situations of this world, there wasn't much that was taught.

Perhaps after becoming a high-level lord or scholar, one would specifically study this kind of thing.

He could slowly supplement all kinds of knowledge in the future.

Zhao Chi squatted down and asked, "The protective mist you just mentioned — are you talking about the Mist Wall?"

"Yes…"

"Why did you call it a protective mist? Isn't the mist very dangerous?"

Meng Meng said helplessly, "The mist is certainly dangerous, but the main danger isn't the magical beasts inside — it's the mist itself. If we go in, we'll get lost immediately. But that's exactly how it protects the territory! If we go in and get lost and can't get out, then other magical beasts wanting to invade will also get lost and be unable to invade our territory. Of course, magical beast invasions through the connections between territories don't count."

Zhao Chi asked in confusion, "Who did you hear all this from?"

Meng Meng sighed, "Of course from my former instructor. You never learned this stuff?"

"…You went to school too?"

Meng Meng looked as if he had been insulted.

"You… I, of course I went. I'm a lord from the 932nd class of the Fifth Academy. Where else would my World Stone have come from?"

Zhao Chi stared at him.

The 932nd class…

Zhao Chi was a lord of the 936th class.

In other words, this year's new lord.

By year, Meng Meng was Zhao Chi's senior.

This fucking…

Zhao Chi said in a low voice, "The first lesson in school was about the relationship between lords and their subjects. But from what I can see, your subjects have had it pretty rough — either becoming food for berserk undead, or turning into your playthings. How did you study that course? Or is this how your instructor taught you?"

Meng Meng said with an awkward smile, "You don't know… I can tell. You're the lord here, aren't you? The lord I thought you were this whole time is actually your subordinate hero. You look very young — a 935th-class lord who just graduated this year?"

Su Qin was the one from the 935th class.

Graduating this year according to the normal schedule.

But Zhao Chi was not.

Seeing Zhao Chi say nothing, Meng Meng continued:

"Look at my brain…

"Someone with your strength couldn't possibly be from the 935th class…

"But you should know that we humans treat ourselves as people and don't treat other races as people. Other races are the same — they only treat themselves as 'people' and don't treat other races as 'people'.

"In my berserk undead's eyes, humans were originally food, not 'people.' Only berserk undead are 'people.'

"As for the playthings you mentioned… isn't that perfectly normal?

"When we raise chickens and pigs, don't we also keep them locked in cages or pig pens? Would you bother to clean a pig pen spotless?

"Don't think humans are any nobler than other races — everyone's the same!

"Don't just talk about me — plenty of beastman lords also keep humans penned up, treating them as slaves and food. There are plenty of female slaves too. So what? It's perfectly normal.

"Don't even mention beastmen — what about elves? They fancy themselves the beacon of the humanoid races, but if you get the chance, go take a look at an elven city. It's not much better there — even more hypocritical and filthy.

"Really.

"Don't take humans too seriously.

"Humans are just one of many intelligent races.

"There are billions upon billions of human captives, trillions upon trillions of human female slaves. Every day, tens of millions of humans die — even tortured to death. You can't possibly not know that, can you?

"You saw those female slaves in my prison, didn't you? You think they're pitiful? Can you even afford to pity them?

"The whole world is like this.

"If you can eat cows and sheep, you can also eat elves and goblins. So what's the difference between eating people and playing with people?

"What's wrong with me playing with a few captives? They were supposed to die anyway. Now they've lived a few extra days — they should be thanking me.

"If you're going to take your anger out on me over this, there's really no need.

"Besides, I noticed all your soldiers are women — and all such beautiful women. You must play with them plenty too, right?

"I bet you've had your way with all those hundreds of female soldiers — at least most of them, right?

"Why do you think they agreed to let you play with them? Just because you're the lord and you can do it, right?

"It's all perfectly normal. Don't limit yourself to such narrow thinking.

"Reputation is built up over time. The name Zhao Chi — we've never heard of it in the Heavenly King Army at all.

"If you let me go, your name will be known in the Heavenly King Army. Next time, if you're defeated, or your companions and friends are defeated, you'll be able to talk to us.

"Everyone's the same.

"You'd better be practical — that's how you maximize your benefits.

"You'll also be able to develop better, and have one more friend and path in the future.

"What do you say?"

Meng Meng lay on the ground, talking nonstop.

Zhao Chi never interrupted him.
