After hearing these words, Li Ke confirmed one thing again.
Varian is truly a good man, a rare good man in this era.
What was his attitude when he said this sentence?
He really regards the people of Stormwind as his own people.
Although this may sound ridiculous, most medieval kings would not regard common people as their own.
Who are their own people?
Nobles, merchants, knights, and even foreign mercenaries.
In the dark Middle Ages, civilians were indeed not considered human beings.
He only needs to manage the civilians in his territory well and manage his knights, that is, those knights with armor, and he can easily manage his kingdom for hundreds of years.
In this case, harvesting civilians is not a matter at all, but a business that should be taken for granted.
In the eyes of the nobles, civilians are just assets, not people.
This is also the conflict between the old-school aristocrats and the new-school aristocrats.
The new aristocrats want to be responsible for their own assets, and then be able to make money to increase their assets.
But this will require goods and wealth to be obtained from other lords.
For this reason, the old-school aristocrats don't like these people because they can get enough benefits from public service.
Public office is also a kind of nobility in disguise, except that the king can take more.
Because of this situation, the religion at that time also highlighted a rationality - kings and priests are the people appointed by God to manage you.
If you oppose the king, you are opposing God! Do you still want to enter the kingdom of heaven?
Therefore, the religious atmosphere in their society is very strong.
Anyway, God doesn’t care about this. If he did, wouldn’t he send someone here?
However, this world is very different.
In this hellish world, you can really get the blessing of the true God.
If you push the civilians too hard, there will really be several efforts that were dying before, and suddenly they will become big guys with golden light all over their bodies, and then they will violently use all kinds of sacred power without any teacher.
Appear in front of you, and then slap you and your little brother down.
Therefore, although there are still many bastards among the lords of this world, there is no doubt that there are also pure good people like Uther.
Even more because of the development of the times, new followers of the Holy Light such as Tirion Fordring appeared.
Tirion said that orcs can also be good people, and the fact that Uther was deprived of the right to use the Holy Light is quite explosive in any religious and political history.
Being deprived of the Holy Light and exploding Chengdu in the early stage is comparable to Napoleon traveling to the Roman era to promote heliocentrism and being burned to death. Regaining the Holy Light in the later stage is similar to Copernicus traveling to the Civil War to promote the abolition of slavery and being shot dead by a banker.
Very explosive.
But Varian...
It is difficult for Li Ke to analyze what kind of person he is.
But if you really say it.
He looked at Varian in front of him. The aura created by him in the game gradually faded away. Then, he came to a conclusion.
Varian is an ordinary person.
Ordinary people don’t like tragedies, ordinary people don’t want to fight and work hard because of various setbacks, ordinary people love their wives, ordinary people are troubled by disasters and difficulties, and ordinary people break through themselves in the face of pressure and responsibility.
After facing the bottleneck, Ordinary picked up all his responsibilities again, then Ordinary did everything well, and handed the future into the hands of his expected successor, and then Ordinary sacrificed himself to save more people.
Varian is really ordinary.
But sometimes, ordinary can also be called the kingly way and the mainstream.
Ordinary is the most terrifying and powerful force in this world.
But it is really difficult to be an ordinary person.
And Li Ke doesn't think of himself as an ordinary person.
But Varian is.
It's a pity that he thought he was ordinary and normal to Li Ke, but he seemed so out of place in this world.
And he is different from the green-skinned Jesus who has shouldered a historical mission since he was born. Without him, Azeroth will be doomed.
Varian is not unique or irreplaceable in shaping.
His achievements are entirely due to his experiences. Any ordinary person with a normal mind would make similar choices to him.
And he finally received the most noble treatment for a Blizzard character - an ordinary, heroic death.
He is a normal ordinary person in a world full of psychopaths.
"We haven't reached that point yet, Your Majesty. Those nobles just share the spoils unevenly. As long as there are enough benefits, that's all."
Li Ke spread his hands.
"But there are so many benefits to be distributed, and my kingdom has been divided up."
Varian sighed and put his sword back into its scabbard.
"But seeing you finally made me feel better."
He is serious. Every time he sees Li Ke, he feels that he has finally met a normal person.
Varian never understood one thing.
That's how those nobles managed to take pleasure in the suffering of others.
Obviously they had suffered the same suffering as those civilians before...
Varian's mind recalled what he had encountered.
When Stormwind City was captured by the orcs, he accompanied Lothar on his escape.
At that time, he saw countless tragedies.
Because of the shortage of food, many people in Stormwind starved to death. He saw with his own eyes a mother of a child using her own blood to feed her child who lacked milk. He saw her eating for a small piece of bread less than the size of a fist.
To do that kind of thing with several men.
But there was nothing he could do, because at that time, even he could only eat black bread and at most a few fish. The families of countless nobles had to endure hunger and fear just like the common people.
During that time, they had to worry about the orcs catching up every day, because they were indeed chasing them. Until they arrived in Nanhai Town, they even found in despair that they had no supplies or food and became beggars.
If it weren't for the people of Southshore and Terenas saving them...
So Varian didn't understand why these people, after witnessing those things and seeing those tragic scenes, could still feel at ease and let such things happen again.
Are they crazy?
He really couldn't understand why these people would bring things to this point.
