Skadi, returning to infinity

"Only in this way can we truly avoid making mistakes in the future, instead of falling into confusion after making mistakes."

"Success can make people confident, but continuous success will inevitably lead to arrogance."

"Failure can be frustrating, but people can also gain experience from failure. Overcome failure, achieve success, and then become better."

They all know these principles, but who says them is another matter.

If an ordinary person, or a so-called elder, were to speak to them, they would likely be less willing to listen.

But it's different when Skadi and the others say it.

After all, in their eyes, Skadi not only possesses remarkable abilities, but also has the wisdom and insight to be a mentor in their lives.

When such people say these things, their persuasiveness and influence on them are enormous.

"I understand what my supervisor is saying, but what if the consequences I cause are too serious..."

Talulah looked at Skadi, wondering what the limit of Skadi's ability to cover the fallback was.

"Even if you want to overthrow this country, I can help you."

Talulah wasn't sure how much weight those words carried.

But hearing her say that, Talulah breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Then I will declare war on these old nobles."

"Turn their money into our seed money."

"Is this... okay?"

Having been educated by Skadi, Talulah had gained a basic understanding of the concept of class struggle.

So she wanted to make a change, to make the people in this area believe in them.

"This could easily provoke a joint attack from the surrounding old noble alliances, which is not a good thing."

Are you really sure?

Skadi looked at Talulah. Did she hope to succeed through peaceful means, or through struggle?

Her decision will affect my future judgments of her, after all, there is still a black snake hiding inside her body.

And this black snake will be her next target. She wants to extract the black snake from Talulah's soul so that Talulah will never be affected by it again.

Although this matter is very troublesome, we are already making some progress in achieving our current goals.

"I'm sure."

Talulah's eyes were so determined; she had begun to change.

"Then ask them. If they're willing to believe you, then go ahead."

"As a leader, knowing how to interpret the thoughts behind your subordinates' words and how to do what you want to do is also a very interesting subject."

Her words made Talulah take a deep breath and then look at the others.

"We trust our leader, so just do what you think is right."

"Of course we will follow you, Sister Talulah. We will help you as long as you want."

Mephistopheles and Faust spoke first, looking at Skadi and then at Talulah, before expressing their thoughts.

"Well, although... I don't really want to see bloodshed, I understand that some things require the sacrifice of some people."

"And these people, since they are the oppressors, should be prepared to bear the consequences of such a price."

Alina, who is usually very gentle, also spoke up at this moment.

She wasn't actually involved in the Reunion Movement's actions and management, but her influence on others, especially on Talulah, was enormous.

So other people's opinions aren't really that important; what matters is Alina's opinion.

Only her opinion can truly determine the outcome of this matter and know what to do.

Having received profound instruction from Skadi, Alina now understands the meaning of "****" and "**" very well, and she is also very clear about the path that Talulah's choice will lead the Reunion Movement down.

But she agreed with Talulah's decision because she knew very well that this was the only way to succeed.

Life cannot be obtained peacefully; to overthrow the old system, bloodshed and sacrifice are necessary.

If we don't do this, the future will be filled with endless troubles.

Therefore, Talulah's choice was not wrong. She was able to do this, which makes it clear that she already knew how to fulfill her mission.

Only by letting these old nobles know that he is not one of them, and by uniting all forces willing and able to resist the old nobles, can he become strong.

"To rebel, having enough people and beliefs is not enough."

"The Reunion Movement is currently lacking in funds and weapons. Funds can be obtained by confiscating the old aristocracy, but weapons cannot be acquired so soon."

"Without weapons, the Reunion Movement cannot withstand the ensuing retaliation."

"Then naturally there is no way to defeat the old nobles."

"so……"

"Our top priority should be to acquire more weapons."

Talulah sat down, tapping her fingers lightly on the table.

She already has the makings of a leader; with a little more experience, she will succeed.

"Weapons...we can go to...the ones Rhodes Island is cooperating with."

At this moment, Froststar suddenly offered a suggestion.

Rhodes Island?

Talulah looked at her with a puzzled expression. Why did she want weapons from Rhodes Island?

"Rhodes Island's predecessor, Babel Tower, actually had many high-quality standard weapons."

"Because of the rampant Originium Infected Beasts at the time, Babel produced a batch of very advanced weapons in order to protect its own safety."

"After the situation at Babel stabilized, these weapons were spread by merchants and Rhodes Island operators who served as mercenaries in the caravans, making many people aware that the quality of these standard-issue weapons was very high."

"Rhodes Island can produce a large number of standard weapons for sale or for its own use."

"However, due to the lack of materials, buyers usually have to provide the corresponding materials or pay a higher price to purchase these standard weapons."

"The standard weapons of Babel are, in a sense, among the best quality standard weapons on the continent of Terra."

"Although they don't have as many firearms as the Laterans, some of their advanced crossbows and bows are just as powerful as firearms."

"If you really want Rhodes Island's standard weapons, you can contact them and perhaps get them on credit."

"Because Rhodes Island shares the same goal as you, we just take different paths."

"They have always been interested in people who share the same goals."

"Perhaps they have already noticed you, but they haven't contacted you yet."

Frostnova didn't know how to explain, but Skadi had already said everything that needed to be said for her.

Hearing her say that, Talulah became even more confused.

"Mentor, how do you know so much?"

She had some doubts.

"Because I had been to Babel Tower Town for a period of time before."

"They even spoke with their leader, the doctor."

Unfortunately, our philosophies are not quite the same.

"I advocate revolution to overthrow all old and stubborn forces and establish a world where everyone is equal."

"But the doctor had a slightly different view on my proposition..."

"However, I cannot share my insights with you because they involve some of Rhodes Island's future development."

"If you have the opportunity to meet the doctor in the future, you can ask him in person."

Skadi is lying through her teeth. These are clearly her own thoughts, and the so-called Doctor is actually herself, but she still insists on saying it.

"Is that so...? Then, mentor, do you have a way to contact the people at Rhodes Island?"

Talulah didn't doubt Skadi's words, because from the moment they met, Skadi had been cultivating an image of "wise, intelligent, visionary, seemingly able to foresee the future, having traveled the entire continent for a long time, and appearing young but..."

She gave the impression of being a "very old woman who has experienced a lot".

And her every word and action has always embodied this image. If Talulah has any questions she asks Skadi, she can usually get the answers from her.

That's why Talulah believed Skadi's words—unless one day Skadi's words began to contradict themselves and make Talulah doubt them.

"Have."

"Talulah, do you know how to use [Tai Xu]?"

Skadi spoke, pulling out a new smartphone produced by Babel that had become popular on Terra two years ago.

"【Tai Xu】?" Talulah looked at her with a puzzled expression and some curiosity.

"Yes, I will, but I mainly use my smartphone to chat."

She felt a little embarrassed, after all, it would be really strange if she didn't know how to do something so popular these days...

"Okay, then go and buy the latest smartphone from the market first."

"Then you spend a few days learning from someone who knows how to use it."

"I'll tell you after I learn how to use a smartphone and the [Taixu] chat app."

"There's no need to worry for the next few days."

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will take those old nobles several more days to launch their attack."

Skadi's words relieved Talulah.

"Okay, I'll listen to my advisor."

Talulah looked to the others for help. She had heard of smartphones before, but she had no interest in them.

She never expected to need something like this now.

"Okay, let me teach you."
