    The mountain wind blew through the woods outside Tululu Village and there was a sound of "swishing". The mountain people in this cold wind were cold in body and heart.  At this time, they discovered that their lives are so fragile. They are not the only ones who kill others, but they will also die in the hands of others.  "You! You!" Village Chief Farmer pointed at Barrett with a slightly trembling finger, and stammered at the same time: "You guys, monsters." "Why don't you use your own dialect now?  "Barrett lifted 'Broken Peak' onto his shoulder, and then continued before Prophet Chomli could speak: "What you did just now was obviously very skilled! It seems that you have done this to deceive people before!  Yes. Are you allowed to trick people and not allow others to resist?" After hearing this, Prophet Qiaomli stopped what she was saying. It was obvious that she had discovered all kinds of tricks in this.  It's just that in line with her usual style, she doesn't want to think the worst about the residents of this village.  The other party who is now connecting everything together is naturally aware of the bloodstains that may be hidden behind the encounter just now.  But just as Barrett was preparing to take further action, the situation in front of him changed again.  Obviously, the fireball that rose just now not only made the mountain people outside the wall lose their will to resist.  At the same time, the residents of Tululu Village behind the wall realized that they might be in trouble this time.  The bursts of commotion coming from the village made Barrett feel uneasy. Although the people inside were not unarmed civilians, if a large number of women and children were killed or injured in the conflict, it would still have a negative impact on the reputation of the players.  adverse effects.  Then he immediately turned his head and glanced at Lalu.  Immediately afterwards, the cat kicked its legs and jumped out like an arrow from the string.  In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was crossed, and he stopped in front of the village chief Farmerly and punched him.  The leader of Tululu Village had no ability to resist the sudden attack.  As Catboy¡¯s paw pressed against Village Chief Farmory¡¯s chest, he felt that his breathing became difficult and his consciousness became blurred.  Immediately afterwards, this middle-aged man, who had been trained in the mountains but had also withstood the ravages of time, suddenly lost control of his body.  Facing the crumbling middle-aged mountain man, Lalu quickly grabbed the collar of his clothes, and then dragged the guy back to Barrett's side at a trot.  Looking at the ¡®leader¡¯ of the mountain people who might lose their attributes at any time on the cold ground, Barrett touched Lalu¡¯s head with great satisfaction.  Then he turned to Clematis and said: "Take out the 'Realm of Reality' scroll. After the effect of the stunning fist wears off, we need to pry open this guy's bad mouth. Let's see what the commission this time is.  What's going on?" After saying this, Barrett immediately turned his attention to Prophet Chomli: "Then if there is any change among the remaining mountain people, please be responsible for dealing with it temporarily.  We are responsible for the work." As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of mountain people came out of the gate of Tululu Village.  However, compared with the previous batch of 'elites' brought out by the village chief of Fameli, although the quantity of the batch that appeared spontaneously was slightly superior, the quality was not flattering.  Although these guys may seem strong, if you look closely, you will find that they lack combat training and can only bully civilians in certain places.  Whether it was against the 'Blood-Stained Gray Flower' mercenary group or against the 'Silver Seal' team, they could not pose any threat.  Fortunately, among these guys, there were no women or children that Barrett was most worried about. Otherwise, the 'Silver Seal' team would most likely choose to retreat rather than conflict with the vulnerable groups who were surrounded by incitement. It looked like Tululu  The village still has certain protection for its internal members.  "Okay! These guys are handed over to us. Quickly figure out what is going on?" Prophet Chomli did not forget to remind him, "Don't go too far. Among your team,  The wanderers will also be affected. "Don't worry! We know this." Barrett nodded and then moved his wrist.  Prophet Chomli took off the compound short bow on his back and pulled out a blunt arrow without a metal arrow: "Stop them, and let these guys reflect on their mistakes just now." After hearing this, Parr  He rushed to the front, even though he was inconvenient to kill due to his status.  But the stabbing sword dancing back and forth was like turning the blunt spine into a steel whip.  He beat the mountain people who had been angrily attacking him just now and screamed "Ouch, Ouch, Ouch".  Paladin Alexis did not take action directly at this time.  If it is the gap where the opponent used a bow and arrow to shoot before, he has no right to fight back.?problem.  But now this fighting method is a bit close to a fight, which is obviously not in line with Alexis's own code of conduct.  So at this time, he could only guard Miss Ventress, the warlock, who was not involved in the close combat, to ensure the safety of this civilian professional. Ranger Ralphs had now changed into a pair of short sticks, and the poet Brinton  Then he took out a leather whip that was hidden somewhere before.  Because facing this kind of enemy in front of them, they are unwilling to choose a fighting method that is likely to take away the opponent's life.  But those later mountain people have not been baptized by the ¡®Fireball Technique¡¯, and to a large extent they still retain their own fierce style.  Even the few shooters who had just been frightened out of their wits by the fireball were infected by their courage and enthusiasm and started shooting again.  Under what circumstances, the helpless 'Silver Seal' team felt a little struggling. After all, the difficulty between killing an opponent and defeating an opponent while protecting the opponent's life is not ordinary.  .  However, in their view, being able to be responsible for carrying out this kind of drudgery still owes a debt to Barrett.  Because there is another job that they are unwilling to get involved in. Even during the torture, Barrett will temporarily put away the noodle boy.  Because this is a burden that kindness cannot bear.  As a moral paradox, many people will ask whether good ends can justify evil means?  For example, is it morally acceptable to torture an evil prisoner to pry out crucial information in order to save thousands of innocent people from a horrific death?  In contrast, the current situation is far from that serious confrontation between the two original players. The players are just trying to figure out why Tululu cheated.  And whether they have tricked other people before.  Normally any good character would shudder at the thought of torture.  But there is no doubt that preventing the deaths of thousands of innocent people is a noble purpose; and in this situation, a neutral character (such as Barrett) may quickly start to consider using torture.  And even the most noble of characters may feel a temptation to go along with their evil deeds when they are confined to a small level.  Very good ends can justify less evil means.  So, is it acceptable to tell a little lie to prevent a smaller disaster?  What about a bigger disaster?  What about a world-level disaster?  But in the multi-distant universe, in principle, the answer is no.  An evil action is evil, no matter what good results it may achieve.  For example, a paladin who knowingly commits an evil act remains a former paladin, no matter what or how benevolent his or her intentions may be.  Any exalted character who commits an evil act for any reason risks losing the exalted feat and other celestial favors.  Whether good ends can justify evil means, they can never make them less evil.  Some good characters might view this situation, in which evil action is necessary to avert catastrophic evil, as a form of martyrdom: "By sacrificing my purity, I could save thousands of innocent people."  "And for some, this is a sacrifice worth making, just as they would not hesitate to give their own lives for the same purpose.  Unfortunately, this view is ultimately misguided.  This line of thinking treats the purity of a good character's soul as a forgivable bargain that can simply be given up or sacrificed, like any other asset.  In fact, when a somewhat good character decides to commit an evil act, the scale of the repercussions is much greater than that of one character alone.  This act that someone sees as self-sacrifice is actually a tilt of the balance of good and evil forces in the entire universe toward evil.  This single act of evil, no matter how subtle, extends far beyond the single act and causes damage beyond the character's actions.  It is therefore not self-sacrifice but a concession to evil and therefore unjust.  In other words, although good goals sometimes require evil means to achieve them.  However, these methods are still evil, and therefore any native who takes seriously his alignment with goodness and his place on the High Path must never resort to these methods, no matter how desperate the need.  It is precisely because of such strict restrictions that members of the Church of the Good Dragon God would rather take on what some people regard as drudgery than accept that kind of interrogation work.  If Barrett hadn't mentioned it before, Prophet Chomli would have taken the initiative.  Therefore, Barrett's performance just now fell in the eyes of the members of the "Good Dragon God" church, and naturally became a behavior that was considered for them.  Screams and roars kept coming from the entrance of the village of Tululu, and at the same time, a certain village chief in Barrett's hands also kept whining.  Here comesThe different sounds from the two places, combined with the whistling mountain breeze and the collision of metal and body, converged into a unique symphony.  With the continuous attacks, Tululu Village no longer has any people left to fight.  The remaining ones also lost their courage and fled towards the village one by one.  The armed forces of this mountain village were temporarily completely dismantled.  At the same time, with the help of his own interrogation techniques and the 'Realm of Reality', Barrett successfully obtained the information he wanted from the village chief of Farmery.  In fact, this mountain bully who has not received special training is even less able to resist torture than the members of the Viper Cavalry that Barrett dealt with last time.  After completing his assigned task, Barrett tied up the hostage with a silk rope.  Then he clapped his hands and walked to the prophet Chomli who had also finished: "We are not the first to be deceived. There have been several groups of adventurers who have stayed in this mountain forever." "For this reason, others have mercy.  The guy with a heart is really damned." Chomli said in a prophetic voice, "Does that mean the thing about the white dragon is false?" "The thing about the white dragon is true." Barrett shook his head.  , "But I'm afraid that white dragon will be like what I said before. It should be a strange flower in the white dragon world. That guy controls this Tululu Village and lets the residents of this village raise livestock and collect food for him.  Diamonds. You can also use intelligent creatures for a change." "Collecting diamonds?" Prophet Chomli's voice rose slightly when he heard this, and Miss Ventris immediately stood up when she heard this.  He raised his ears and turned his head.  Obviously, women and dragons are equally unattractive in front of such shiny objects.  "The white dragon was attracted because of the diamonds found here." Barrett nodded, "And their supplies and weapons were also exchanged for the bits of diamonds that slipped from the white dragon's fingers. Just  It was because of the broken diamonds that the smuggling merchants were unwilling to take risks. On the contrary, other tribes in the mountains launched attacks on them, but they were all repelled. "The merchants who bought the broken diamonds from Tululu Village are definitely capable of clearing them.  After paying them off, occupy this place.  It's just that the mining of diamonds also requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and the diamond output that Tululu Village has shown before is not worth the investment.  But if they had known about the part that was taken away by Bai Long, maybe the work of slaying the dragon would have been completed long ago.  Miss Ventress couldn't help but speak: "Then why do they want to attract adventurers into the mountains? Is it just for the equipment on the adventurers?" "What do I think? When these mountain people came out to look for adventurers, I'm afraid they were  I sincerely hope that someone will drive away the white dragon." Prophet Chomli expressed his opinion at this time, "It's just that the adventurers who came were not strong enough, and they all became food in the belly of the white dragon.  It evolved into an operation to trap adventurers. Obtaining equipment is part of it, and letting Bailong change his taste is probably another important reason." (To be continued.)
