With her right hand on Vigus's shoulder, Yin Qianyu's voice trembled slightly.

"For the first ten years or so of my life, I also thought that this situation was the natural order of things, the logic that the world should have."

Until one person came along, and the story he told changed my mind.

In the world he depicted, there were no nobles who could kill and plunder at will, no emperors who stood high above; though the world seemed full of ups and downs, it was not without opportunities to climb upwards.

He once told me, 'Everyone's existence has its own unique meaning; power and strength are merely external extensions of desire and cannot represent the rules and order of this world.'

'Absolute fairness and absolute equality are unattainable, but why not strive to make them appear more fair?'

At this point, a smile appeared on Yin Qianyu's beautiful face, as if a hundred flowers were blooming in an instant.

Yin Qianyu seemed to sense that a noble will had quietly taken root in those beautiful eyes.

"Since those great nobles and capitalists who represent this world order are unwilling to provide fairness, then we should give them despair!"

It bestows upon this world's existing order the deepest despair!

Does Chapter Twenty count as "playing it off"?

Vigus remained silent.

Although Yin Qianyu's words used despair as a cover, she knew very well that Yin Qianyu's purpose was to change the existing order and benefit more ordinary people.

Faced with such a lofty ideal, her despair and misfortune seemed so insignificant.

She should have instinctively felt disgusted by this lofty ideal and then rejected Yin Qianyu's invitation.

But after carefully considering her inner emotional fluctuations, she found that she didn't feel much instinctive disgust.

Vigus began to ponder what could have prevented her from feeling any aversion.

Was this ideal so lofty that it made her realize her own insignificance?

Is it because Yin Qianyu, as the heir to the throne, willingly overthrew the old order she led?

Or did she herself yearn for such a lofty ideal?

At that moment, Vigus suddenly remembered someone: Poppy, who was known as the great hero of Demacia.

Is she really so disgusted with Bobby just because Bobby has high moral character and great fame?

Was there truly no jealousy towards this great hero standing in the shadow of glory in her feelings of disgust?

Vigus couldn't explain it clearly.

......

Just as Vigus fell silent, Yin Qianyu was also quite nervous.

In order to persuade Vigus, she revealed a thought she had never shared with anyone before.

To oppose the great nobles and overthrow the existing order? The idea sounds so absurd and ridiculous.

It should be noted that although Yin Qianyu was in exile in Mingcheng, she still possessed immense prestige as the rightful heir, a prestige determined by the throne shrouded in the glory of the empire.

As long as she compromises with the powerful nobles, she can still be the nominal empress of the entire Dayin Empire, the largest noble, and the biggest beneficiary.

To contradict oneself is absurd in everyone's eyes.

Once this idea is made public, Yin Qianyu will lose her most important reputation, and the elders of the Yin clan will rebel against her. The collateral branches of the royal family will immediately support an emperor to ascend the throne.

She will truly have nothing!

But... so what if that's the case?

Having experienced the light, how could she possibly want to sink back into this deep darkness?

For Yin Qianyu, the answer to all of this was already predetermined after Luo Tian finished telling the story of Earth.

The invitation extended to Vigus is merely a necessary step in the process.

After a long silence, Vigus finally spoke.

It was still that lazy voice, a kind of languor that could drive someone to depression, but was filled with helplessness.

“Foygo is a clown, and you are a complete madman.”

Yin Qianyu's mood immediately darkened, but the next moment she suddenly felt a cold little hand on hers.

The lazy voice rang out again.

"However, I'd rather deal with madmen than clowns."

A smile spread across Yin Qianyu's pretty face as she tightly grasped Vigus's small hand and said joyfully:

"Welcome to the team, Vigus!"

Vigus's face flushed almost imperceptibly, and after withdrawing her hand, she looked utterly listless.

"Speak, what do you want me to do, you rude human?"

Yin Qianyu was stunned for a moment.

Because those two Yordles were so influential, everyone in the Stellaris world believed that Yordles were born geniuses, born with the ability to change the world.

So no one ever thought about what a Yordle could do after being subdued.

A bad feeling rose in Yin Qianyu's heart, and she asked cautiously:

What skills do you have?

Vigus rested her chin on her right hand, posing as if deep in thought.

Does "retreating" count?

......

"Ah!"

Luo Tian, ​​who was organizing documents in the archives office, suddenly sneezed.

Rubbing his slightly sore nose, Luo Tian looked around and then whispered:

"I always feel like someone is going to talk badly about me."

"No, no!"

"Absolutely not!"

"You must be overthinking it."

In the archives office, a group of imperial civil servants from the Otherworld Management Committee shook their heads, quickly indicating that they had absolutely no objection to Luo Tian.

Luo Tian ignored these guys and just continued tidying up his things.

Seeing that Luo Tian did not pursue the matter further, many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"This plague god is finally leaving."

"Once you leave, never come back."

"That's no good place. I hope this guy gets into trouble soon!"

Such a thought flashed through the minds of many people.

Many people's impression of Luo Tian is still limited to the fact that Sir Kevin took a liking to his wife and planned to have Luo Tian personally present her to him.

Yesterday, Luo Tian personally threw the invitation into the trash can, which greatly shocked many members of the Otherworld Management Committee.

In their view, Luo Tian's actions were suicidal, and many who had previously tried to curry favor with him but failed were now waiting to see what kind of persecution he would suffer.

But to their utter surprise, Luo Tian was not persecuted; instead, the renowned Sir Kevin's family in Mingcheng was massacred.

The battle that took place yesterday afternoon at Sir Kevin's manor allowed everyone in Ming City to witness the power of the extraordinary.

Luo Tian, ​​who had angered the Ke family, miraculously escaped this calamity.

It wasn't that no one thought this incident was related to Luo Tian, ​​but the high-ranking figures confirmed that the attackers had nothing to do with Luo Tian, ​​and could only attribute it to the Ke family suffering a great misfortune.

Yesterday, something of moderate importance also happened within the Otherworld Management Committee.

Yesterday afternoon, the dwarf Duer from the pet management office was attacked by a fire lion, a supernatural creature he kept. The fire lion swallowed him whole, bones and all.

The scene was so bloody that it was enough to make one's scalp crawl.

For the powerful figures at the top of the Otherworld Management Committee, the death of an otherworldly dwarf was a trivial matter; they hastily drew conclusions without even considering organizing an investigation.

From the perspective of the powerful elites, the most important thing is to find someone to take the blame.

So Luo Tian, ​​who had become famous yesterday, was chosen to be the scapegoat in this matter.

A transfer order came down from above, removing Luo Tian from his position as a staff member in the Archives and reassigning him to the reception center of the Otherworld Management Committee on the outskirts of Mingcheng, where he would be responsible for receiving otherworldly transmigrators.

This was no easy task. Although all the transmigrators who were able to go to the reception center had undergone preliminary screening, there were bound to be some who slipped through the net.

Transmigrators who conceal their strength and identity, and who are violent and dare to attack imperial civil servants, are not uncommon, so this position has never been popular.

Upon learning this news, Luo Tian himself felt that it was a good place for him, quiet and free.

The only downside is that the number of transmigrators the reception center can contact is not fixed, and the experience gained is far less stable than that from the archives office.

After organizing his belongings, Luo Tian carried them out of the office building under the watchful eyes of everyone.

A staff member accompanied Luo Tian, ​​who was responsible for taking Luo Tian to the reception center.

Before leaving the committee, Luo Tian went to pick up his own knight.

The pet management office is still operating, only the caretaker has changed from the slick dwarf to an ordinary person.

The fire lion was nowhere to be found in the largest iron cage.

Luo Tian casually asked the clerk next to him:

"The dwarf Dur killed the fire lion. Was the fire lion disposed of?"

The young clerk immediately cast a questioning look at him, seemingly surprised that Luo Tian would say such a thing.

"The committee's preliminary assessment is that the Fire Lion bit through the Beast Taming Lock and then killed Duer."

However, according to the beast tamer, the fire lion originally did not have the ability to break the beast taming lock, which may be due to some deep-seated bloodline mutation of some extraordinary creature.

As soon as the news spread, the Fire Lion was snatched up by powerful figures, and its final destination wasn't decided until this morning, when it was sent to Viscount Edwin's estate.

"It's just the death of a mere dwarf. Even if the Fire Lion hadn't mutated, we wouldn't have dealt with it, not to mention that the Fire Lion's value is now far greater than before."

Luo Tian remained silent for a moment.
