Chapter 271 Isn't charm a stat used for giving speeches?

In fact, Xue Law once had the idea of ​​grabbing this child and refining him in an instant.

He didn't consider himself a good person in the traditional sense. Whether it was the Great Sage, the Old Ghost, or Odysseus, they all taught him to use despicable means and traps to achieve his goals, including but not limited to poisoning, sneak attacks, ambushes, and using the enemy's family members.

It's even possible that many innocent people were killed in the process of achieving their goal. If someone could see the number of people the other party killed, then Xue's law would probably have hundreds of millions or even billions of people on his head.

If judged by human laws, he should be hanged.

Therefore, he was very self-aware, realizing that he was actually more like a despicable schemer. Although the outcome was good, no matter how much he tried to cover it up, it was still the truth.

In the Ultraman universe, he would at most be an anti-hero, or a gray character who straddles the line between good and evil. He could never become light; at most, he could only be a cosmic demon.

Therefore, he believed that he was only suitable to cooperate with the Starfleet, rather than join it, because many of his practices and methods might not be in line with the values ​​of the Starfleet members.

But even a despicable schemer like himself can distinguish what is truly disgusting evil.

The Frost Signal Halberd was handed to Lan Lin'er, and Xue Dinglu said, "I want to see this real world with my own eyes, so are you willing to join me in burning all of this to ashes?"

The moonlight shone on Xue Dinglu, casting his long shadow on the ground, while Lan Lin'er squatted on the ground, staring blankly at the figure in the moonlight.

"I...why is this place such a hell? I don't understand, why?" she asked Xue Dinglu, stunned.

"Hell? But what you consider hell is someone else's life."

Lan Lin'er's pupils constricted, her mouth agape, unsure of what to say. She saw everything inside the factory: humans were being processed like livestock on a birthing assembly line, and male mage apprentices were being bred one after another like on an assembly line.

There is no love, no hope, no future or light here; there is only absurdity and distortion born of endless despair, like hell itself.

This made her, who was still looking forward to a beautiful love and longing for a happy future, feel as if her personality had been distorted, her values ​​had been shattered, and her thinking had been alienated. She didn't know what to do or what she should do.

"Why, it shouldn't be like this, why?" she asked, clutching her head in anguish.

Xue Dinglu simply said calmly, "I won't teach you how to do anything, but I will go to see the true face of this world, to see the slums of the capital, to see those degenerate people struggling to survive; to go to the northern border, to see the border guards fighting against monsters, the blood staining the snowfield red, a beauty that is desolate."

"And then there are the swamps in the west, the forests in the south, and the sea in the east, where people struggle to survive. How do they manage to live? This world is not just about the capital city, nor is it just about magic academies."

Xue's words reached her ears. She was not a girl who liked the lower class. She had been pampered by her family since childhood, and even in the lower realm, she was worshipped by countless gods. She had never seen what the lower class looked like.

She never even needed to fight on her own.

But this time, she descended to the mortal realm, changed her identity, and came here, only to see a world completely different from before.

Is this really how the world should be?

"The world shouldn't be like this," came Xue Dinglu's words.

Whether it was the allure that worked or the increased persuasiveness of Xue's charm judgment, these words seemed to enter her mind like a demonic whisper. She immediately understood her mission, her mission in descending to the mortal realm, and the mission that this "goddess" was to fulfill.

As if guided by some unseen force, the Frost Signal Halberd stood before her. Lan Lin'er reached out and silently grasped the treasure that exuded a chilling aura.

The next moment, the Noble Phantasm unleashed a powerful reaction, and the light converged into a skull under the moonlight.

"What do you want to do with my power?"

"I want the power to change the world! At the very least, to change this hell, even just a little bit."

The Frost Signal Halberd flashed with a cold light, and the silver skull laughed, saying, "Interesting, then use my power for now!"

"The contract is established!"

The moment the Frost Signal Halberd was held in her hand, as if a magical girl were transforming, a set of icy full-body armor with a skeletal texture appeared on her body, adding a touch of heroism to her originally delicate and cute appearance.

"This is my power. Please use it wisely. If you break the contract, you will lose your magical girl powers," said the Frost Signal Halberd.

"Then you'd better watch carefully." Under the moonlight, she walked into the factory.

He smiled because Xue Dinglu suddenly discovered that this child had a trace of the world's blessing. Although it was not much, it proved that his original guess was that the protagonist and hero chosen by the world to save Him was actually the daughter of the Mind Flayer.

wonderful!

The hero's daughter and the demon king's father, and goodbye to my cowardice.

Xue Luding's lips curled slightly, and he was wearing a white robe. Here, he would also collect the suffering of this world and bear the pain of the world for everyone.

Then, he poured all this suffering into the Frost Signal Halberd.

"Actually, I suddenly realized the true purpose of my charm-boosting buff." He seemed to be talking to himself, or perhaps he was used to having an old man inside him keeping him company, even though there was no one inside him now.
"The blessing that Alaye gave me to increase my charm is actually used for public speaking and persuading others." Xue Dinglu looked at this world and joked, "It's just a pity that this theocracy doesn't even have a tavern."

"That's true. Most boys are hung in trees right after they're born, so what need is there for a tavern?"

……

The following day, news of the destruction of a birthing factory became the hottest topic in the capital city in recent years.

The factory was destroyed, but all the ordinary people inside were knocked unconscious, and when they woke up, they all said they remembered nothing. What shocked everyone even more was that many of the original degenerated people had turned back into ordinary people, and the physical deformities caused by the veterinary drugs had also been restored to their original state.

The people of the capital city all believed that this was a blessing from the gods.

Only the divine families who had actually come into contact with the God-King began to wonder and sent people to investigate what was going on here.

This news overshadowed the appearance of a magician in the slums who could cure all diseases, and who, in just one night, transformed most of the degenerated people in the slums back into normal humans.

However, these divine nobles were completely unaware of this, because they had never previously compiled statistics on the proportion of degenerate people in the slums.

On this day, the entire capital was extremely lively. The once desolate and stagnant theocracy seemed to have finally come alive, and everyone came to check what was going on.

In this environment, a carriage slowly drove out of the north gate of the capital.

"Yes... no, Xerides, where are we headed next?" Lan Lin'er asked from across the carriage.

“Rosmar on the northern border,” Xue replied, writing in his book.

"Xerides, you've been writing in a book the whole time, what are you writing?" she asked curiously.

"Just my travelogue." Xue Dinglu revealed the cover, which prominently displayed the title "The Travels of Xue Diles".

"After you finish writing, can I be the first reader?"

"maybe."

As Xue Dinglu responded, thorns slowly pierced his body from beneath his pure white hood.

He turned to a new page and wrote on it.

Innovation Era: Day Three, Blizzard

……

On the other side, the young general walked wearily, with a lizardman supporting him and looking shy beside him?

To be precise, they should be half-dragons, but their faces, filled with lizard features, are really not flattering. Even as a minor demon in the Book of Hejudah, such a transformation would be considered grotesque.

“Young Master Hachimedes, we are about to reach the habitat of the Spirit Bird Clan,” said the shy half-dragon maid.

"Oh...oh..." The young general forced himself to cheer up and then looked at the spirit bird race of this world.

He secretly hoped this would go smoothly.

The Spirit Bird race is one of the most powerful races in this world's magical beasts, just like the Wyvern race. They are also a race that has pseudo-Tier 5 Spirit Birds, which is why the young general had to come here.

His goal was to gather all the magical beasts that possessed near-Tier 5 Beast King attributes, so that other smaller magical beast groups would naturally join him, thus creating a considerable force.

This power may have unexpected effects in the fight against Mind Flayers.

So no matter how tired he was, he had to pull himself together. His work wasn't finished yet, but thinking about the suffering in the world gave him motivation again.

"Who goes there!" came a clear voice from the spirit bird clan.

"I am the Dragon Queen, the Spirit Bird King. We have a way to help you take another step on the path of human transformation. You see, I am the best proof." This time, the half-dragon queen stepped forward to negotiate like a wise and helpful wife.

The wind from flapping its wings stirred up water droplets in the forest, and a raptor that looked like it had the head of a clucking chicken appeared in front of the two.

Upon seeing the half-dragon queen, the spirit bird king was greatly surprised. Although from a human's perspective, this was an incomplete transformation, from a magical beast's perspective, it was a transformation that he had always dreamed of.

"Young master, what is your name?"

"Hakimed - The Sad Wind".

After some negotiation and several hours of transformation magic, a "bird-woman" appeared, with bird-like feet, a human body covered in feathers, and a chicken-head on her head.

Overwhelmed with emotion, she embraced the young general and said, "Lord Hachimedes, I am deeply grateful for your kindness and wish to repay you with my body."

Young man: "..."

"Young master, you smell so good! Let's build our love nest together. But please don't mind, we birds share a burrow for both breeding and excretion. But I just cleaned myself..." the bird-man with the face of a clucking chicken said sweetly.

"Gently..." This was the young player's last act of defiance.

……

The half-dragon queen silently gave a look, leaving the space to this side, because she had already eaten her fill.

A few minutes later, a mournful sound came from the mountain spring.

"Hmph-hmph-hmph, ahhhhhhh!"
