Chapter 543: What should we do if Nazarick attacks?
This is a weird scene. Listening to Sebastian saying that he was controlled by a world-class gadget, I always felt something was wrong.

Although it is true, it is still strange for Sebastian to say it himself.

"Sebastian, what do you think personally? About the fact that I used a world-class item to control you and changed your camp and allegiance."

Lu Li asked curiously, mainly wanting to understand the control principle of world-class props.

Sebastian was silent for a moment and then said, "With my personality, it is difficult for me to say bad things about the person I once served. That is something a mean person would do. But I cannot help but answer the young master's question seriously..."

He thought for a moment and continued, "Objectively speaking, I don't like the Great Tomb of Nazarick. The behavior of other guardians, including Lord Ainz, does not conform to my values. But there seems to be a voice in my mind telling me that I must be loyal to Lord Ainz and the Great Tomb of Nazarick. In addition, I believe that loyalty is a good virtue, so I have been doing my duty there."

"what about now?"

Lu Li asked.

"Now... now that voice has disappeared from my mind, or rather it has changed into another voice, asking me to pledge my loyalty to the young master."

Sebastian said, with a rare smile on his face, "But to be honest, if it is to do good things, even without those voices in my head, I will help the young master."

After listening to Sebastian's explanation, Lu Li was thoughtful and felt that the world-class item should lock on an object of loyalty, but it did not change Sebastian's mind at all.

If he did something cruel and injustice, Sebastian would still be dissatisfied, but because he was restricted by the object of his loyalty, he would not express his dissatisfaction and would not be able to rebel.

In essence, if he doesn't force Sebastian to do something, Sebastian will be no different from an uncontrolled person.

"I see. Then you can rest assured. Although our cooperation will not last long, during this period, at least among the subspecies of humans and near-humans, I am on the side of justice."

Lu Li said with a smile, the reason why he added the near-human subspecies was because these races had a relatively low threshold for getting along with humans in a friendly manner.

For example, the elves once had a good relationship with the Theocracy, but the relationship became strained because of the incident with Juesijieming's mother. Now that Juesijieming is the Theocracy's treasure, they have become even more hostile to each other.

It is also a very important reason why they can maintain relatively good relations and intermarry and have children.

For example, elves and humans can mate and reproduce. This is how Juesijueming was born. Her father is the Elf King, and her mother is a god who inherited the bloodline of the six gods.

Dragon people like Sebastian and the Lolita Dragon King of the Dragon Kingdom can intermarry with humans, and their appearance looks not much different from normal humans.

Sebastian has a clear empathy for humans, which is obviously influenced by his race. If he were a complete alien, then even if his justice value was relatively high, he might not necessarily want to help humans who are in trouble and struggling hard.

After all, so-called justice is different for different races.

For example, Lu Li protected the human kingdom and wiped out the goblin army, which was of course a just heroic act in the eyes of humans.

But in the eyes of the goblin race, he is a complete evil demon, and his actions have nothing to do with justice.

Therefore, Lu Li felt that the guardians of the Great Tomb of Nazarick generally despised and killed humans. From their point of view, this was not an extremely evil act.

After all, in the eyes of the alien guardians, this is probably no different from humans stepping on bugs to death while walking, just like few people would feel guilty for stepping on ants to death while walking.

Of course, the difference in race does not mean that the killing of one race by another is just or evil.

It depends on the nature of the killing.

If killing is done for the purpose of eating and survival, it is certainly not evil, it is just a natural act.

But if the killing is done simply for pleasure or some perverted hobby, Lu Li thinks that is evil.

Just like if a person accidentally steps on an ant to death, it has nothing to do with evil. But if you just like to see the ants die and specially get a pot of boiling water to pour on the ant hole, then the nature of the matter is quite different.

Therefore, humans are a race that is born with cruel traits in their genes. Children can always do cruel things innocently, but when their values ​​mature, they will think back on the things they did as children and feel that they were a bit cruel.

Sebastian is like this. He doesn't feel unhappy when the Guardians of Nazarick slaughter monsters, but if he sees Guardians or other important personnel killing humans for fun, he will feel uncomfortable.

Even if the target was not a human but a sub-human like a lizard man, he would still feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, he had no sympathy for Suo Liuxiang's end, because Suo Liuxiang ate people not for survival, but just for fun. He felt that such behavior was against his justice.

"I look forward to witnessing the great achievements that the young master will establish."

Sebastian did not continue to discuss the topic of justice with Lu Li, but only expressed his expectations.

He indeed felt more at ease with Lu Li. At least he didn't have to listen to Demiurge's plans and experimental proposals that made him frown.

"Go on, what do you think the Great Tomb will do?"

Lu Li wanted to seek advice from Sebastian, as there was no better source of information than Sebastian.

"Based on my understanding of Ainz, he will probably call a meeting of the Guardians first, then send out a few Guardians to test the waters, while he himself will be the main force in the assault, and then have Aura and her brother lead the charge."

Sebastian said seriously, "It will be a grand attack. Even though you are powerful, you must be cautious in dealing with it."

Lu Li knew that Sebastian was not trying to boost the morale of the enemy, mainly because Sebastian had never seen the peak of his strength and knew too much about the combat capability of the Great Tomb.

Although Sebastian is not very satisfied with Ainz's leadership style, he recognizes Ainz's strength. After all, he is one of the Supreme Beings, and now all the resources in the guild are at his disposal. It is not an exaggeration to describe Ainz's strength as unfathomable.

"Will they attack the Theocracy directly?"

Lu Li touched his chin and said thoughtfully, feeling faintly excited in his heart.

If this is the case, his efforts to stop the Bone King's forces in the Theocracy can be considered a defensive war.

In this way, he can not only gain fear points, but also justice points.

However, the irony here is that Lu Li had discovered before that the mechanism of the justice value score was not determined by Lingxu Palace, nor was it evaluated by any system itself, but was related to the cognition of the people in his camp.

For example, when he saved the village of Kahn where Enri was, he gained 30 points of justice.

But when he annihilated the goblin army that was about to invade and threaten to destroy the kingdom, he only received 50 points of justice.

This is fucked up, because the few people in Kahn Village are incomparable to the safety of the people of an entire country, and yet the scores obtained are almost the same.

Lu Li thought about it carefully before he understood the reason.

Because when he rescued Kahn Village, some people in Kahn Village were already injured and had witnessed the cruelty of those Theocracy soldiers. So when Lu Li saved them, they were grateful and gave Lu Li an extra 30 points of faction justice score.

But the goblin army was so powerful that Lu Li killed all the soldiers before they even started fighting with the kingdom. The people of the kingdom had never seen the cruelty and terror of the goblins. In fact, the justice points he received should have been provided by the soldiers who were afraid of fighting the goblins.

To sum up, the acquisition of justice points, just in the field of saving people, is based on the degree of panic of the people when you save them, and their degree of gratitude afterwards.

To put it bluntly, people who have never experienced pain do not understand the value of peace, and will not be so grateful to those who protect them.

This phenomenon is common even in the highly developed modern society, not to mention the medieval fantasy world with backward education and culture. Due to the lack of communication, some people in the kingdom knew about the invasion and destruction of the goblin army only half a month later.

When they find out about this, they will just say something like 'Oh, there is such a thing. It was really thrilling. All thanks to that mysterious strong man.' It will be just a topic of conversation after dinner, and they will forget about it soon.

Therefore, Lu Li now realizes that if he wants to pass this world battle, it is easy to earn fear points, but it is not so easy to obtain justice points.

After all, he doesn't like to direct and act out scenes like Bone King does, causing massive casualties and then appearing to save the world, making the people shed tears of gratitude.

He believes that a true hero is not necessarily someone who turns the tide in a war. Those unknown people who silently guard the border and allow people to live and work in peace are also heroes.

If he had the ability, he certainly didn't want to let the alien monsters invade, even if some people would not be grateful to him at all.

"Given Ainz's way of doing things, he will be very angry when he learns the truth. He will probably launch a large-scale attack on the Theocracy. He will stop at nothing to protect the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Young Master, you must be prepared for the worst."

Sebastian said.

"Any means necessary? For example?"

Lu Li is not someone who is good at dirty tactics. Although he is a little reluctant to admit it, his brain is probably not as good as Bone Overlord's.

“For example, Lord Ainz will probably choose the battlefield in the most densely populated area of ​​the Theocracy. This way, he can fight without any worries, but you and the Theocracy’s army will have to be cautious.”

Sebastian analyzed that this was not something he said casually, but he felt that Ainz would really do this.

For the safety of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, human life is worthless in Ainz's eyes.

"It would be quite troublesome if we teleported them directly here..."

Lu Li groaned.

In terms of combat power, if he wants to kill someone directly, once his Bankai is activated and the special effects are maximized, he can almost kill one guardian with one sword.

But the problem is that if the enemy's combat forces are dispersed and they hold civilians hostage to fight you, Lu Li cannot guarantee that he can kill Bone King's team without any casualties.

And to be honest, a quick fight and a quick kill was not his goal. If he killed him directly, he wouldn't get many fear points.

So the ideal situation he hoped for was that the people of the kingdom could see him fighting bravely against the invasion of monsters, while ensuring that the people of the kingdom would not be killed or injured in the battle. Finally, he could leisurely control the Bone King's camp to gain points and drive the Bone King away.

Yes, just beat him away, because there is only one Bone Overlord, after killing him, who can provide him with fear points continuously like Bone King?
It doesn't matter for the Guardian. After all, he doesn't have the halo of the protagonist, and the fear points he can provide to him are far less than those of the Bone King.

Lu Li scared the Bone King at least twice, and he didn't find any signs of the fear value provided by the Bone King decreasing, which shows that the Bone King is extremely durable.

"Hey, you get worried sometimes too."

At this moment, Chuchu let out an unpleasant laugh opposite Lu Li, making Lu Li feel that his brain was looked down upon.

"So what do you think?"

Lu Li asked back.

"I have a way to solve this problem. Since you came all the way to save me, I will help you for free."

Chuchu said proudly.

"Then should I be grateful and ask Miss Chuchu to help me?"

Lu Li said this jokingly. He knew Chu Chu had no other intentions. Even if he didn't coax her, Chu Chu would have to help him win the battle for the world for her own safety.

But as they are old friends, Lu Li is still quite easy-going towards his friends.

Chu Chu had a happy smile on her face. "Hehehe, since you are so sincere, I will show you my best skills."

As she spoke, she pulled out a wooden compass from the storage space.

"What is this? How did you get it?"

Lu Li only glanced at the equipment and saw the fairy quality marked on it.

"Don't ask, if you ask, I just picked it up."

Chu Chu was too lazy to make up stories. "Remember my Feng Shui skills? Use this compass, collect some materials and let me arrange them. I can create a Feng Shui barrier. After setting the rules, only you and the intruder will be hurt in the barrier. No one else will be hurt."

"You still have this ability?"

Lu Li was delighted when he heard this, he didn't expect it to be possible.

Chu Chu rolled her eyes and said, "How can you talk like that? I am someone who can save even a non-African like you."

Compared to using props and materials to set up an array, using Feng Shui to increase a person's luck is actually much more difficult.

"How big is the range of influence of your Feng Shui formation after it is set up?"

Lu Li asked, if the effect was as Chu Chu said, then he really didn't have to worry about the Bone King playing dirty with him, even if he was in the city, he could fight calmly.

"The range..."

Chuchu said with a smile, "It's not that big, only slightly bigger than the Silian Theocracy."

“So wide?”

Lu Li was a little surprised. Did he underestimate the skills of his backup?

"Don't you even look at who it is and what they are using to set up the formation?"

Chuchu said proudly, "Isn't this natural?"
