Traveler in the Pirate World

The wind was howling, and strange noises were heard between the hollow towers and the densely packed alleys. Countless ancient relics turned to ashes, making this ancient city look like a black flood.

Lily, Merojan and others hid in the empty room. Danielle patted the black dust on her body with disgust, "Alberto, help me get it off, it's all over my hair!" She was completely unaware that she was asking Alberto for help like a spoiled child. She was always used to being with Alberto and always used to relying on this guy.

Alberto didn't say anything, but just sat down quietly behind her and helped her clean the dust on her hair bit by bit.

He knew that Danielle would be very clean if she had a choice, and she had been like this since she was very young.

At that time, she was a tomboy-like girl who would get herself dirty when she had fun, but Danielle didn't care because she was happy. She just felt disgusted afterwards.

Alberto was a taciturn person. He always couldn't say anything for a long time, like a little mute. Danielle also called him that at that time, "little mute!"

The girl is very lively and active, but she is always at odds with the seemingly quiet Melo Jane. Warren, who is protective of his sister, never participates in the interaction between her and her friends. Although the two seem to have a deep hatred for each other, they are actually a pair of enemies.

Atobelle inexplicably became Danielle's little follower. When did it start? It was when the girl suddenly walked to his lonely dining table, laughed and said, "It's so boring to be alone. From now on, you will be my friend? No, a little follower... If you don't speak, I will take it as your consent. By the way, you can't speak, right? It's so pitiful that you are a little mute... But don't worry, I won't despise you. If someone bullies you in the future, just say my name. My name is Danielle, your boss Danielle, remember, little mute?"

While boasting, Danielle completely forgot that if she was really dumb and was really bullied, how would she have the chance to say her name?

However, Danielle is indeed a qualified boss. Unlike previous bosses, she will not force herself to use her abilities, nor will she always beat him, nor will she lock him in a dark room and starve him for a long time because he does something wrong.

Danielle always keeps Atobel by her side and tells everyone that this is her little follower and that you are not allowed to bully him. If he is really bullied, the little girl will always help him get revenge. Many children in the academy have been beaten by her.

Even though her body was covered in bruises, she always walked up to him and said, "Little mute, I've avenged you. Look how powerful your boss is!"

He couldn't help asking her, "Why do you do this?"

The girl was initially shocked that he actually spoke, but later she said, "Isn't it normal for a big brother to protect a little brother?"

"Then can the little brother also protect the boss?" Atobelle couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Danielle was stunned at first, then burst into laughter, "Haha~haha...how can a little brother protect a big brother? Besides, you are so weak, it's good enough if you are not bullied?" The girl paused and said with a smile, "But it's not impossible. When you become stronger in the future, you can protect me. I almost forgot what it feels like to be protected by others! "

Alberto will never forget that evening when the setting sun shone through the window and passed through the girl's golden hair, casting a faint red glow on it. There was a hint of a smile on her purple face, but there were tears in her eyes.

At that moment, Atobal suddenly realized that this always powerful little girl actually needed someone to protect her. And if possible, he hoped that person would be himself, the one who would always follow him.

Lily squatted in the corner with her knees hugged. She knew that everything had begun. On the battlefield that everyone present could only look up to, everything would become real. Even if it was fake, people would think it was real because the power was unquestionable.

In fact, Lily always felt that she was not that great. She was a senior who had achieved the highest status in the world by relying only on the information traded with the system and the inexpensive Sand of Time. In her opinion, he was much more powerful than herself.

That is not an easy task. Trying to deceive a strong person in the world is harder than climbing to the sky. No one can deceive the sands of time.

The senior at that time did not think that he was invincible just because he had the system. On the contrary, he was particularly wary of the system. He never believed in such good things that fell from the sky.

If he were to learn Taoism in a sect, he wouldn't know the tendons, meridians, acupoints, nor did he know how to draw qi into the body. He could only study hard and learn bit by bit. If something couldn't be done in a hurry, he could only take his time.

As a result, he became the slowest progresser among his peers and was often laughed at by those uncertain young disciples because he had good talent but poor comprehension.

But he didn't care. He started slowly in spiritual practice and was criticized, which was just the norm in this turbulent world. Instead of getting entangled in external matters, he should think carefully about his own path. He would not have the time to care about what others said.

However, although I don't trust the system, it would be a waste if I didn't use the treasure I had. Besides, since this thing is living in my body, I have to figure out the other party's intentions. If I can find a way to get rid of it, it would be great.

In order to deceive the world, he replaced the history of the entire world bit by bit from the system, and spent hundreds of thousands of years writing and creating new history. Combining it with the Taoism he created, he deceived the world.

Even those old monsters who can see thousands of years in a single thought and who regard time as an endless river, were fooled by him and finally transformed themselves into the way of heaven and made the false become true.

The moment he was separated from the system, he finally understood why the system was hostage. However, he had no regrets. He was who he was, and this was only because he was who he was. He made his own choice, even if it was much more difficult than relying entirely on the system.

Lily could not compare with those brilliant predecessors. She always felt that she was just a little luckier.

In her previous life, Lily's mother was a member of the Freedom Clothes Movement. As the Qianluan people gradually got rid of the complex and harsh natural environment, some of them began to pursue liberation from the burqa and encouraged people to accept and wear more beautiful clothes that they liked. This group was formed by the Freedom Clothes Movement.

There were actually quite a few groups like this during the era of ideological liberation, and there wasn't much of a problem with the ideas that existed there. Although my father couldn't do it, he didn't object, as long as they weren't too exposed.

Unfortunately, no matter how just and noble the words are, or how reasonable the ideas are, when they fall on real people, things become complicated.

Not everyone in Freedom Clothes has good intentions. In a group where everyone no longer covers their entire body with burqas, it seems to have been destined from the beginning what kind of ugly desires will erupt on this conservative planet.

As time went by, the Free Clothes Society gradually began to split due to internal ideological differences. The worst of them evolved into the Free Clothes Society, which even evolved into a church. They advocated that since we are born without clothes, why should we wear clothes?

Although Lily's mother was not so exaggerated, she still fell into that group of temptations.

At first, he was probably afraid and felt guilty, but later, when he found out that his father hadn't noticed, he became bolder. It was not until Lily was over ten years old that her father discovered the clues, and the unhealable rift in the family was completely broken.

No one knows who Lily's biological father is, including her mother. Many people probably don't realize how big of a joke this is on this conservative planet.

Lily will never forget what her father said when he left, "We are both innocent and pitiful people, but I don't have the slightest intention to cherish you anymore. You are like a thorn in my heart. I don't even dare to look at you!"

Later, his mother left with a stranger. He had guessed that Lily was not sad.

Perhaps his father couldn't let him go, so he would send him some living expenses every month. This money continued until Lily became an adult, and then there was no news from his mother.

Ever since her mother's scandal spread to the neighbors and the academy, Lily became a laughing stock in everyone's eyes. She became timid and even cowardly. She acted as if nothing happened when she was beaten. She just hid in the empty house and cried alone, not knowing why she should be sad.

He always wrapped himself tightly. He began to hate contact with people, became withdrawn, sensitive and fragile. He hated freedom and began to stubbornly believe that only conservatism could protect himself.

This state continued until he began to live in society. He saw his father for the last time. His father was still single at that time. So he left the city where he originally lived and went to other cities. As he came into contact with more people and things, he slowly got over his heart knot, but he could not change his overly conservative temperament.

In his spare time, he would always go to the Imperial College to audit classes, where he met the teacher who impressed him the most in his life, a grumpy old man.

I still remember the first time I went to class, the old man was arguing with a student. The student said that the resources of Qianluan Star and even the resources of the universe are limited, and the people of Qianluan Star must move towards unification, even if it means launching a war, so as to be responsible to the people of Qianluan Star.

The old man slapped the desk with his palm, his palm turned red, but he didn't even cry out in pain, and cursed, "FNMDP! How arrogant can humans be to say such stupid things as yours? What makes you so arrogant that you think that the people of Qianluan are qualified to worry about the universe? You haven't even figured out such a small thing, and you're thinking about internal friction?"

The young student stiffened his neck and said that resources will eventually run out and the universe will eventually perish. Only by concentrating the strength of all the people on the Thousand Luan star system can humans master the method of avoiding it before everything comes.

The old man was so angry that he laughed. "I'm asking you, have you ever thought about who should be responsible for the unification of Qianluan Star? How to resolve the conflicts between ethnic groups? How to deal with historical issues? What social system should we choose?

And why do you think that the so-called limited resources of the universe must be true for us? And what makes you think that the limited universe and the limited knowledge you have are the same concept? Do you think we will one day run out of the resources of the universe?"

How could it not be the truth? This is the truth reached by countless predecessors. Should we wait until it is too late to find a way to make up for it? The young student said indignantly.

But the old man rolled his eyes and said, "That is something the younger generations should do. It is not your turn to worry about it. What we should do is to do what we can in this era.

Also remember that there is no eternal truth in our current science. We should learn to question the theories of our predecessors. Only in this way can we break through the existing knowledge. "

Later, the old man mentioned a story that was extremely famous throughout the world, a boxing championship match in the academic world.

That year, a group of top scholars from Qianluan Star held a summit. A large group of well-educated scholars argued endlessly, and it eventually turned into a brawl. A group of people fought in a big mess, and left in a bad mood with bruises and swollen faces and cursing.

After a large group of scholars returned, they cursed those bastards to their students because everyone's speech was extremely similar, and Qianluanxing then had a golden saying in the academic community.

"Those idiots are so self-righteous that they firmly believe in their own ideas and won't listen to any objections from others. When they won't listen to you, beat them up with your fists and stuff fresh red cotton balls into their mouths so that they will listen to your ideas."

Red cotton fruit is a high-fiber plant on Qianluan Star, generally used to make clothing and medicine. However, fresh red cotton fruit has a special odor, and its peel has a certain anesthetic property. Direct contact with the mouth will paralyze the other person's mouth for a short period of time, making the other person unable to speak clearly. In the era when technology was not developed, it has always been a necessary weapon for murder, arson, kidnapping and extortion.

Afterwards, various institutions of higher learning launched a training craze, and the Academic Boxing Champion was an old rogue born in such a background.

He would attend every meeting of the Garden of Wisdom, knock down a group of people, stand in front of them, and talk about his discoveries and research. Then, because his experimental data was not sufficient and his theory had loopholes, he would be beaten up by the group of people and forced to listen to others talk with red cotton fruits stuffed into his mouth.

Until he was in his seventies, he stood on the podium in the Garden of Wisdom. No one rushed up to beat him up, but instead applauded him madly. He ushered in a new era, the interstellar era of the Qianluan people.

Since then, the Garden of Wisdom has had a statue called the Boxing Champion. He has a cigarette in his mouth and a folding stool in his hand. His face is tough and mean, and he looks like a nasty hooligan who robs people in fights.

“It is precisely because we respect our predecessors that we have to surpass them. Whether it is to improve the other party’s theory or to deny the other party’s theory, as long as you can prove that the other party is wrong with reason and evidence, then it is wrong!

Don't try to look at the future with your current perspective, and don't try to use everything you have now to deal with the past. We are all just doing what we can do in an era.

When you look at everything in the past with a mocking eye, have you ever thought that our future generations may also look at us in the same way?

But when you regard everything that our ancestors did as truth, have you ever thought about how long we will be trapped on the path of our predecessors, and how long it will take us to go further on this path?

All denials will be justified, and so will all acknowledgments. Science is not just knowledge in your hands, it is also a spirit, a rigorous spirit. Be bold and reasonable in denying, and be serious and careful in acknowledging. Truth will only exist in the more distant future. "

Later I heard that the student joined the Starry Sky, a famous battle fleet and space fleet. The boy who was sent by the old man himself said, "I don't know if my choice is right, but I hope I am right!"

The old man just said, "Just do what you think is right!"

In the end, he still held on to his beliefs. He waited for the day when war would come and the day when he would go to the battlefield in person. However, this belief was no longer the initial passion of a young man, but a choice made after careful consideration.

People always do what they think is right, or are forced to do what is wrong. The old man did not persuade him. After all, after countless years, who can prove that he is right? We are just in the same era and made different choices.

But before leaving, the old man was so angry that he slapped the young man on the forehead. The young man just smiled and was not angry.

Her thoughts were drifting away. Seeing Lily was in a daze for a long time, and even let out a low giggle, Tina couldn't help but push her, "What are you thinking about?"

"No, some interesting things!" Lily shook her head and said with a smile.
