Chapter 712: Wind! Wind! Wind!
Robb felt embarrassed seeing so many people staring at him with eager eyes. He thought to himself, [You guys always rely on stronger people when you face difficulties, no wonder you end up as subordinates.]
But then he realized that most people in the world are like that. When faced with challenges, they don't use their brains to find solutions but hope for someone stronger to help them. That's why people choose leaders to handle complex and difficult tasks and are willing to be commanded.
During his school years, when they chose a class leader, everyone would hide, and no one would let themselves be chosen. When they had to choose a group leader for a big cleanup, everyone would hide because they didn't want to stand out. During sports day, when they had to choose an executive committee member, everyone would hide, thinking that there were no benefits to being chosen.
Over time, their abilities became dull.
When it came to choosing a village chief, a town mayor, a factory manager, or a city mayor, these people who always couldn't be selected to shoulder heavy responsibilities.
Most people would disappear into the crowd and become sheep.
However, those who were strong, who were not afraid of being chosen from a young age, who did not rely on others, would stand out and become the best among people.
Robb thought seriously for a few seconds and then said, "I do have a solution."
"A solution?" Everyone was overjoyed! Especially Madeline, who blindly believed in Robb. When she heard him say he had a solution, she was so happy that she felt sure it would work without even hearing his plan.
However, the others were not so blind. They looked a little doubtful and asked, "What solution?"
Robb said, "If we hold our breath and don't breathe in the poison gas, we will be okay, right?"
Everyone nodded, "Yes!"
Robb said, "In other words, if we let the poisonous gas pass through the city as quickly as possible, say, within a minute or two, then as long as we hold our breath for one or two minutes, we will be fine. It shouldn't be difficult for you all to do this. Even if a few people occasionally can't hold their breath and are poisoned, we have hundreds of bottles of medicine to save them."
When everyone heard this, they thought it made sense. As the current leader of the Wind Knights, Barry had a good understanding of "wind." He immediately understood what Robb meant and said, "I understand. Your idea is that we shouldn't fight against nature or the east wind, but we should work with the wind to blow away the poisonous gas quickly. In this way, we can easily use a little bit of wind magic to help the east wind and achieve our goal."
Everyone who stayed in the city was nervous.
Barry raised his hand and shouted, "Wind magicians, get ready to cast spells."
The wind magicians on the city wall began to chant spells together.
Robb saw everyone chanting and decided to join in, [Oh no, who is the god of wind? Oh, right, you don't need to include the god's name in the spell anymore. I can just say anything.] He had to use his own voice that only he could hear, "I eat grapes without peeling, and I spit out the peel..."
There are quite a few wind magicians in the Wind Knights. Every few steps on the city wall, there stands one. On the long wall, there are over a hundred wind magicians lined up, chanting together. The scene is quite spectacular.
Kante climbed up from behind and shouted, "I'm also from the Wind Knights, I'm here to help."
The others responded, "..."
Barry said impatiently, "Knight, step back! This is none of your business. Hold your breath and lie on the ground."
Kante said, "My uncle is Nuolun Chengguang. I learned wind magic from him since I was young. Although I am now a knight, I still have a heart for magic. Today, let me show you the Wind Technique that has been passed down in my family."
Upon hearing this, the others thought to themselves, [This guy might actually know some wind magic, after all, he is Nuolun Chengguang's illegitimate child. He must have learned something when he was young.]
Just as they were thinking this, they saw Kante suddenly swing his shield and frantically stir up the wind with brute force, shouting, "Wind! Wind! Wind!"
The others yelled, "Stop it! Baron Nuolun will be furious!"
