The Trio of Iron, Blood, and Fire Chapter 23: The "Treasure" of Gadetewaz

    In fact, as long as he recalled the scene just now, Feng Kan would understand the reason.

    The instantaneous movement of the Undead Scourge seems to be the same as his own spatial movement, but there is a very crucial difference.

    Conceptually speaking, the teleportation that Feng Kan is accustomed to is to move himself and the objects he touches across the distance of space, but what the Undead Scourge just performed was a real spatial movement - he moved the entire space and the destination.  The space of the same volume is directly replaced.

    That¡¯s why he was able to move the large group of people to their destination at once without touching anyone else.

    However, if the space is replaced together, then this ability will become very useless when you are stuck in a tree hole. If you want to transfer, the trees will also be transferred together. In the end, the bad situation will not change.  .

    But Feng Kan didn¡¯t have time to discover this. Everything in this hall-like space was even more interesting.

    The towering ceiling is a permeable structure that seems to open up the floors of a ten-story building. The top is made of a circular dome made of an unknown transparent material. Bright light shines through the ceiling.  A kind of divine hazy state, the bright but not dazzling light makes the eyes very comfortable.

    Looking at its internal structure, the layout is like the ruins of an ancient city, with pillars and stairs piled closely together with stones, staggered pathways and arc-shaped suspension bridges, and vine-like vegetation growing on it.

    However - in fact, those things that look like stone are all bookshelves.

    on the other hand.  It is also littered with miscellaneous items of unknown origin, like Escher's optical illusion paintings, depicting irregular-shaped stairs and suspension bridges - and reflecting those scenery is a huge suspended in the hall.  The hexagonal cylinder crystal refracts the light tilted down from the dome and spreads it evenly in every corner of the space.  (Escher: Dutch printmaker known for the mathematical nature of his paintings.)

    It is both fantastical and beautiful - but a blasphemous landscape that is absolutely incomprehensible to humans (probably).

    "¡­¡­These¡­¡­"

    "These are part of the treasure."

    Facing people who cannot recognize everything in front of them, the undead natural disasters show off proudly.

    ¡°¡­Treasure?!¡­¡±

    Everything in front of them was completely different from the scene in everyone's minds of mountains of gold, seas of gold, and treasures piled all over the ground. For a moment, everyone fell into confusion.

    "Well~~This is really an incredible treasure."

    No, actually not everyone is in this state.  Several of them seemed to have known this was happening.

    See the scenery in front of you.  Feng Kan's eyes lit up like a beggar who had been hungry for more than ten days when a bowl of fragrant braised pork suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

    "Eh? Brother Kan?"

    "Ralph, you were disappointed when you first saw it, weren't you?"

    Without looking back at the surprised little prince, Feng Kan walked to a row of bookshelves with an admiring look on his face and slowly looked at the books densely arranged on them.

    "I've reminded you a long time ago that the 'treasure' that guy talks about is completely different from what you imagined. Have you forgotten what I once told you?"

    ""

    The smart little prince was surprised and thoughtful when he heard this.

    "¡­¡­I see."

    A moment later.  He smiled as if suddenly enlightened.

    "What are you talking about? What's so 'so'?"

    Be the first to recover from the shock.  When he came back to his senses, he noticed that the two stray guys were muttering something. Shutana Hardy came up curiously.

    "We are talking about what exactly is the 'most precious treasure of mankind'."

    I heard him ask this question.  Feng Kan and Ralph turned around at the same time and gave him a mysterious smile.

    "oh?"

    Hearing their mysterious answers, the steady leader of the dragon knight looked a little puzzled. He frowned and looked up to carefully observe the bookshelf in front of him.

    "Sowhere is the so-called 'humanity's most precious treasure'?"

    After looking at it for a long time, I couldn¡¯t see anything interesting.  Shutana Hardy looked back and asked solemnly.

    "Well~~this is what you have in front of you."

    Hearing him ask this, Feng Kan cheerfully raised his hand and pointed at the bookshelf in front of him that could not be seen as high or wide.gestured.

    "Aha?"

    ¡°What we have in front of us is ¡®humanity¡¯s most precious treasure¡¯.¡±

    "These?"

    Shutana Hardy was even more confused as she pointed at the densely packed bookshelves with countless books.

    "Yes, that's it."

    Feng Kan nodded firmly.

    He already understood very clearly what the so-called "Holy City" was for.

    "Master Hardy, the reason why you are confused is because you have not realized the true value of these 'treasures'."

    At this time, Diamandak came from behind them and joined the conversation.

    "That's it. To understand the value of these 'treasures', we must first understand what real 'wealth' is."

    Feng Kan looked at the old man with approval and continued.

    "What is real 'wealth'?"

    The dragon knight leading the team vaguely got some clues from the other party's words, but he was still confused.

    "exactly."

    Facing the thoughtful dragon knight, Feng Kan smiled slightly.

    "'Wealth', what exactly is 'wealth'? Money is just money, just a simple and ordinary item. The same goes for gold and silver. It can neither be eaten nor worn. If it cannot be exchanged for other items needed for survival,  It¡¯s no different from junk. Do you think it¡¯s appropriate to call such a thing ¡®wealth¡¯?¡±

    Feng Kan once said these words to the little prince, but now he plans to explain this concept in more detail.

    Hearing this, the little prince who had already accepted his theory subconsciously shook his head. Diamandak smiled and touched the beard under his chin, and Shutana Hardy, who had heard this argument for the first time.  It seems to be caught in a battle between heaven and man.

    This is normal. Even in modern earth civilization, there are very few people who can think deeply about what real "wealth" is. The vast majority of people are ignorant. Under the rules of modern free economics, people have become accustomed to living in a stable environment.  In the competition for economic interests within the framework of the economic order, except for some professionals who study economic laws, few people go back to think deeply about the fundamental basis behind these economic rules.

    "People need to have food to eat, clothes to wear, and a house to live in. These are the basic conditions for survival. In order to meet these basic conditions, humans have learned to pick the fruits of trees and capture various wild beasts. In order to more efficiently  In carrying out these activities to obtain survival resources, humans developed farming and grazing techniques as well as the tools needed for these productions.

    With the development of human society and the increasing population, the original production methods and tools can no longer meet the needs of production, so humans have improved production methods and tools based on the original technology.  This process is repeated every period of time, and it takes step by step to achieve what our world looks like now.

    Are you right?  "

    ""

    No one answered his question. Ralph concentrated on waiting to hear what he said next. Shutana Hardy was still a little confused, while Diamandak smiled and said nothing.

    "In fact, these are the 'wealth' of mankind, those more convenient working methods, those more convenient tools, the technology that continuously improves human living standards and improves human living conditions. The wisdom that creates these can be regarded as precious 'wealth' -  ¡ªWhat is produced is only 'product', and what is created is 'wealth'. Real wealth actually only exists here"

    As he spoke, Feng Kan pointed to his head.

    "Having said this, I think everyone should understand that the greatest 'wealth' of mankind is precisely mankind itself.

    And this is also the basis that supports my various actions. Everyone is an independent individual with different thoughts, different personalities, different experiences, and different opportunities. It is these differences that can give birth to infinite possibilities. You will always  No one knows what opportunities a person will have in the future, what achievements he will achieve, what changes he will have, and whether he will have any impact on the world - as long as he believes in his own possibilities and works hard for  of effort.  "

    That's it.

    There is a saying in the United States: ¡°Because we don¡¯t know which child will become the president of the United States in the future, we need to do our best to ensure that any child can grow up healthily.¡±

    Precisely because human beings themselves are the most precious "wealth" in this world, the act of "war" is the greatest tragedy in human society.

    Because it destroys the possibility of the future of the world.At this time, other people also noticed the situation here. Everyone gathered around the four people one after another and listened quietly to Feng Kan's introduction to what "wealth" was.

    "And these"

    Feng Kan, who continued to explain his point of view, did not care about the actions of others. He turned around and opened his arms as if he wanted to hug the books.

    "It is a book that human beings before the Chaos War accumulated millions of years of experience and wisdom, recorded the crystallization of the wisdom of countless sages, and contained a wealth of immeasurable 'wealth', just as the skeleton stick himself said  , well-deserved 'humanity's most precious treasure'!"

    The holy city of Gardethevaz - is actually the most complete "library" in the Age of Gods, or is it more correct to call it a "database"?
