Palamedes regained his composure and seemed to be about to find the answer to his question: "Start the search again: How do I contact the system administrator?"
"A record was found:
Means of contacting system administrators in emergencies: Find the Guardian."
Everyone turned their attention to the little demon statue.
...
The golem was silent for a while before saying, "Oh, I am the guardian."
Palamedes immediately punched the golem, but the thing was incredibly hard, and the big cat's fist immediately swelled up, causing him to jump up and down in pain.
"What are you doing? You are so stupid." Vivian scolded her husband, "What if you really break the guardian?"
"No...this bastard has made us go around in such a big circle. I still feel that I can't relieve my anger without giving him a punch."
The woman shook her head, dumbfounded by her husband's childish behavior, and at the same time held up the little golem: "No need to search, [Guardian], tell us now, where to find the [System Administrator]?"
"Question query. One matching result. The 482nd generation administrator... Vivian Nivell Conwell, current location is..."
The big cat looked at his wife with incredible eyes, and Vivian looked at her husband with the same incredible eyes.
"I'm a system administrator? Why? Why have I never heard of ------"
The golem said something even more confusing: "No, you are not the system administrator. The system management authority is in the hands of Vivian Nivell Conwell."
The woman was really angry: "I am Vivian Nivell Conwell! You stupid golem!"
"No, you are not Vivian Nivell Conwell. You do not have the authority of a system administrator. Logic error, logic error------"
"What the hell, are there two of you?" Palamedes looked at his wife, "Are you a clone or something?"
The woman was so angry that she almost wanted to slap her husband. If it weren't for the fact that she was holding the golem in her hand and couldn't spare any time, she would have slapped him.
"I am who I am, and no one can copy me. This is probably a good thing that Morgose or Morgan did.
How dare you impersonate me and steal the administrator rights? It’s unforgivable!"
This was the first time that Palamedes saw his wife's face look so ghastly and terrifying, and the big cat was frightened and took several steps back.
"Golem, raised a question about permission being stolen. How can I reset the permission settings?"
"Detailed physical examination and genetic factor identification are required. All examinations will be completed within twelve hours."
"Great, where can I go to get these tests?"
"In the medical facility in the east wing, the road map is displayed." The golem used a holographic image to project the road map.
"Wait a minute!" Palamedes quickly stopped him: "Are you sure you want to get this authority?! You don't even know what its use is! You don't even know the consequences of taking on this responsibility!"
He doesn't understand women. Women will always be obsessed with things that should belong to them. If they know that someone has stolen their name and taken possession of what they should have, they will be even more angry.
"No matter what," Vivian said hypocritically, "we still need administrator permissions to get the antidote to [Destruction Factor], right?"
Palamedes could not refute it.
"Wait here, I will come back after I resolve this matter." Vivian left with the golem.
"Gu..." Palamedes was full of complaints, but he didn't dare to go against his wife's wishes, so he had to watch Vivian walk away.
"What are you going to do next?" the Leopard Man turned to Chief Tutan.
"Me?" Tutan took a puff of cigarette, "Although I still want to continue the investigation, without the golem, the data in the server cannot be read. Let's return to the Ark to rest."
"No, that's not what I asked." Palamedes shook his head, "Now that you know the truth about the birth of the orcs, what are you going to do?"
"What else can we do?" Tutan smiled indifferently, "I will send people to inform the heads of each clan about this matter. As for what they plan to do, it is up to them to decide. We, the Turks, still implement our principles and remain neutral."
"The tigers and foxes will not agree. They will only think that you are spreading rumors, classifying the elephant people into a pro-human faction, and taking the opportunity to invade the Everglades."
"It doesn't matter," the Elephant Man sneered, "Whoever dares to invade Turkic territory, our tribe will definitely fight to the end. We do not invade others, and we will never allow others to invade us. If our skills are inferior to others, we will not be able to stop them with all our strength.
If we invade, then let our clan be destroyed - fight to the last soldier and then die.
However, the invaders will never have an easy time. Our people will make them suffer. Even if they defeat the Turks, they will only get the corpses of a group of elephant people, not a group of soldiers who help them invade humans."
Tutan talked about such a cruel topic calmly, as if he had already realized it.
Palamedes used to hate the Turks very much. He once thought that these elephants were smelly, rude, selfish, and only wanted to sit in the well and watch the sky without making progress.
Tutan's words made Palamedes completely change his mind.
The Elephant people are more realistic and far-sighted than any other clan, and are more resolute and pragmatic than any Orcs.
While other orc clans are thinking about how to rob humans to survive, the elephant people are thinking about self-reliance.
The Great Swamp where they are located is the most dangerous area with the worst living conditions in the entire Dark Region. In this kind of place, they can still survive tenaciously.
In comparison, Palamedes, who grew up stealing and robbing, was simply ashamed.
"In order to survive, I think that is a natural thing."------He comforted himself in this way at the beginning.
However, those are just excuses.
He did not try his best to survive, he just coveted comfort and took the wrong path.
After reflection, I realized that it was an extremely serious sin.
Is it okay for us to tarnish our own humanity in order to survive?
Some people still shine with the light of reason and maintain the purity of their souls in the darkest times;
Some people break the jar and break the jar, willing to degenerate into dregs and voluntarily become something worse than an animal.
If you take the wrong path, life will certainly be easy and comfortable; being an upright person and living an upright life will always be difficult, as difficult as climbing to heaven.
-------How should people choose at the numerous bifurcation points between morality and interests?
Palamedes thought of himself and his two children's experiences.
------The life saved by Arthur has already been reborn. He decided from the beginning how to take the next step.
He followed Patriarch Tutan and asked in a formal tone: "Master Patriarch, after this matter is over, my wife and I may stay here for a while, is that okay?"
"It doesn't matter. But why?" Tutan asked casually.
"Let us help defend the Turkic territory. If the tigers and foxes dare to attack, you will need us."
"...Okay, I appreciate your kindness. You can stay as long as you like. This is the hometown of the goddess, right?"
"Yes." Palamedes smiled in agreement. The two figures gradually disappeared into the intricate corridors of the ruins.
