The person the other party caught was a typical peasant ruled by aristocrats, a very typical kind, so he subconsciously thought that after the other party knew the living conditions of His Majesty Li Ke, he would come to his place without hesitation.
side.
But Van Cleef shrugged. He had roughly guessed what would happen to the farmer's wife and child named Lena.
After all, people like them who couldn't be found by crows had naturally gone to another world, or some hidden basement.
But generally speaking, it will be a secret basement.
"His wife and son have been detained, but we didn't see it when people from the fraternity went to investigate, so we are now waiting for people from the psychic department to come over to see if we can use psychic techniques to save his wife and son.
The soul must be summoned. If it can be summoned, it will be confirmed.”
He cut a piece of meat pie and put it on the fireplace for baking. Van Cleef rubbed his hands. The climate here became a little abnormal. The heat of the Burning Plains was known before, but now it has become quite intense.
It's getting colder.
Those druids and experts said that after the climate here stabilizes, it will become an extremely suitable place for grazing and planting. A large amount of wheat and rice can be grown. However, not many people like to eat rice, so it will be very difficult to promote it.
Trouble.
And according to experts, this will also reduce storms in Stormwind City a lot, and even the climate of the entire Elwynn Forest will be much better, which is indeed a good thing for farmers.
But when he thought about the strange situation in which the Dark Iron Dwarves summoned Ragnaros, which caused the climate in most of the Eastern Kingdom to change, and Lord Li Ke sealed Ragnaros and brought the climate back, he found it interesting.
If it weren't for the fact that Li Ke wanted to merge his secret troops and needed him to sit in for a period of time to ensure that Defias' power could continue in the future Watcher system, he would have probably already worked with those experts and druids.
And the Dark Iron Dwarf named Shaman went to explore the entire Azeroth.
Then plan the bridges, roads, railways, and majestic landmarks in this world.
But the most important thing now is one thing.
Destroy Stormwind City.
Thinking of how he was treated by the nobles of Stormwind City, the blood feud between Varian and himself that was not a blood feud, and the greed of those nobles, he couldn't help but hold his fist.
Although it seems that everything is a problem between Varian and the person named Onyxia, in fact, if those nobles did not want to embezzle their wages, how could such a thing happen?
Onyxia's revenge could not be avenged for various reasons, but Li Ke had never given that woman a good look, and he was definitely unable to obtain the status he wanted.
He was already very satisfied with this kind of torture.
And Varian's words...
Van Cleef's hands trembled and he sighed softly.
The death of the other party's wife was just a trigger. As long as the money was not available, Defias would still appear.
To be precise, it was precisely because the princess died that they, the Defias Brotherhood, were able to resist. Otherwise, they would all die quietly.
"Since I can create it, I can also destroy it, Xiaoer... don't think you can stop me, you are at the end of your rope."
He opened his mouth to his former playmates and brothers, but his mind quickly returned to the current matter.
Because Little Toby's mood is obviously not very good. This is the candidate of Dark Crow whom he is very optimistic about. His loyalty to Li Ke and the world constructed by Li Ke are very high, which is not the best for an agent.
The second choice, and he is also a very hard-working human being, a human being who truly understands Li Ke’s thoughts.
Even though he felt he didn't understand it.
Little Toby took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, and spoke helplessly.
"This is really a suffocating world..."
He could understand Reiner's mood, especially when he thought about how desperate Reiner would be if all his family members died.
He betrayed the people who were good to him and betrayed the life he longed for, but what he got was still despair.
He used to be able to get used to such things, but now he feels that he can't do it anymore. He feels like there is a fire burning in his chest, and he wants to vent it out. He wants to swing the shovel and pickaxe in his hand, like breaking stones.
Same, break the hearts of those noble bastards, break the hearts of those insensitive farmers and workers.
Let them look up and see that there is still real holy light and real beauty in this world.
"The world has always been like this, little Toby, otherwise why do you think we would appear? Beauty comes from contrast, including the fact that you feel that your life is extremely beautiful now. It is also because of the contrast. In the past, didn't you also think that such things are very beautiful?
Is it normal? It’s just that you have seen a better life, so you can’t stand the life you had before. It’s the same for everyone, and you will become more and more greedy, and you will want to live a better life more and more..."
Van Cleef chuckled lightly. After experiencing too many things and seeing more of the truth of the world through Li Ke, he stuffed the hot pie into his mouth and tasted his daughter's craftsmanship.
At the beginning, he wanted his daughter to learn as many fighting skills as he did, but now, he hopes that his daughter can live a stable life, because in Li Ke's empire, children do not need to learn
A situation arises where you can survive only by holding a knife.
It’s just my daughter’s cooking skills and taste in food…
There was a little bit that he couldn't accept.
But no matter how unpalatable it is, it is still food made by my daughter!
So he quietly gave Xiao Tuo a piece.
Little Toby nodded and took Van Cleef's meat pie. He had indeed thought about this. After all, when Li Ke's wartime terms came out, there were many voices of dissatisfaction, but at that time most people had just recovered from the hardships.
It has come out in the middle of the day, so it is still acceptable, but now that the Scourge has been defeated, and a series of wartime controls have to be implemented, or even support for other places, most people will not be willing.
Although these lives were originally provided by Li Ke, they actually have nothing to complain about.
But he didn't understand why Van Cleef would say this to him. He was just an ordinary worker, and people like him were everywhere.
But Van Cleef didn't say anything, but looked into the distance with confused eyes.
"On a historical level, national narratives and people's narratives are inherently different. So little Toby, do you think you can view the world from a national and national level, or do you view it from a personal perspective?
From this world?”
He used to look at the world from a personal perspective, hating Varian and Stormwind City immensely, and hating those who didn't speak. However, looking at it from a national and national perspective, he felt that he was not the same as Varian.
Andu is a poor person.
The wonders of it made him feel a little funny, and he knew that his own views did not represent everyone's views, but in the Raven Guard he reorganized from the Defias Brotherhood, he planned to use his own methods to make the Raven Guard
can continue.
Even if the old Defias in it are gone in the future, they can still be a qualified 'Defia Brotherhood', an organization that has come out of the fire and is truly worthy of their resistance and suffering.
Little Toby was even more confused. He didn't understand why Van Cleef told him these things, but he still expressed his thoughts honestly.
"I don't know. I am a human being first, and then a subject of His Majesty Li Ke. Mr. Van Cleef. If my basic dignity and survival as a human being cannot be guaranteed in a country, then naturally I cannot be a country.
And look at things from a national level, because when I can’t even survive, no one will care about those things. Unless there is deep-seated hatred, I think everyone’s first priority is to survive.”
Little Toby saw this very clearly, because he himself didn't know which country he was from, but only in Li Ke's country, he lived like the person he longed for when he was a child, so he felt that he should
They are the people of Li Ke.
Van Cleef laughed, and he knew that this kind-hearted guy was actually very smart, but he didn't know it himself.
"Interesting... Then let me ask you, if you need to select some special talents to go to your enemies to carry out lurking, sabotage, and various actions, what kind of people will you choose? What methods will you use?
"
Little Toby was even more confused. He was a person who had only read books for a few years. Why would Van Cleef say such a sensitive thing?
But out of respect for Fan Cleef, Li Ke's comrade-in-arms, he still answered.
"belief."
"belief?"
"Yes, hiring someone is just a transaction. When you want the other party to take actions beyond your money and other interests, or when you can get greater benefits by selling you, he will not do anything.
I hesitate to betray you."
Little Toby thought of his past, and then continued to speak.
"But the same belief and a certain material foundation can make people show unimaginable power, just like our country."
He thought of the lifeless farmers among the farmers in Lordaeron, and the vitality they showed after coming to Li Ke's land. He saw the strength and vitality that bloomed after they owned their own land, and Li Ke's
The most central belief of all thought.
‘Let as many people as possible live a better life’.
With this belief, those farmers learned things that were previously considered impossible and demonstrated abilities that only nobles could possess.
So he believes in the power of faith.
Moreover, Li Ke's thoughts are actually a bit confusing in his opinion, and many policies and actions are self-contradictory, but if this belief is added as a criterion, then everything makes sense.
He feels that no matter what kind of thoughts and doctrines, if the core is not this, then it is meaningless and will not have the slightest bit of rationality.
He didn't know much about political philosophy or anything like that, but he felt that what he thought was right.
"A belief in common struggle, sufficient material reserves, and a fair reward and punishment mechanism can prevent a person from thinking about whether his wife and children will starve, or whether his achievements will be forgotten. The needs of survival and reputation are all
can be satisfied, but our enemy aristocrats cannot do it, because the most important thing for them is to maintain their superiority, maintain their sanctity and superiority. Only in this way can farmers and workers believe that only they exist and obey
Only by their command can we survive."
The more he talked, the clearer Little Toby's thinking became and the smoother his sentences became.
He was just focused on his own thoughts and did not see Van Cleef's increasingly weird expression.
"But if it were me, I wouldn't do this. I would probably keep those people's achievements from being exposed for the sake of confidentiality. After all, this is to protect them, but I will record all their achievements and ensure that they are
When the time is right, all their efforts will be reflected, and sufficient material foundation will be given so that these heroes will not be unable to spend their old age peacefully due to battle injuries and special tasks. Of course, for some of the enemies who seem to be greedy for money,
We can also dig out people of our own through various means, but it is not just about using money, but to find out what they are working for. After all, even among the nobles, there are actually many good people.
There are also many people who can’t help themselves..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Little Toby talked freely, and Van Cleef couldn't help but scratch his head.
These……
He didn't even think about it!
He knew some of what Little Toby said and heard some from Li Ke, but because Li Ke didn't rely much on the intelligence system of their Defias Brotherhood, he regarded them more as infiltrating the army.
To use it, so he really didn't think carefully about what Li Ke said before, and he always regarded Defias as being used by the secret sabotage force.
But now that little Toby can say such a thing, his first reaction is——
It's censorship.
See if this guy is some sort of hidden spy.
Because people who often do spy work will not understand these truths. Even if he has many truths, he only knows them, but does not fully understand the reasons.
But now you tell him that a person who has never been exposed to espionage can actually say such things, and vaguely regard himself as the leader of a secret organization...
Li Ke often said that Azeroth is full of outstanding people, and there are endless heroes and weirdos. As long as the literacy rate increases, there will be talents everywhere.
He didn't understand it before, but now he understands it.
This is fucking true.
He originally planned to make the other party a offline person, but now, such a person cannot run away.
So when little Toby took a sip of water and was about to continue talking, Van Cleef spoke.
"So."
Van Cleef's face was full of seriousness and earnestness.
"What's the matter, Mr. Van Cleef? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
Little Toby looked at Van Cleef with some confusion, but Van Cleef just shook his head, and then said something that made little Toby feel his brain pause.
"Are you interested in joining the security department, becoming the leader of an intelligence team, and making a huge contribution to our operation to destroy Stormwind City?"
And little Toby's reaction was very direct.
"ah?"
He expressed his doubts and pointed at himself to show his confusion.
"I?"
He is just a small foreman who was elected by everyone!
