Vol 5 Chapter 314: :discuss

"Please drink some water to moisturize your throat. We have a long time to discuss how to protect this city. As long as you agree, I believe there is nothing impossible."

Speaking of this, the city lord handed over another cup of tea. Without hesitation, he took the tea from the apprentice and gently sipped it.

"You sent so many maids to block me outside the main hall to prevent me from coming in, but when I approached your door, you were not surprised. Instead, you made tea here, as if from the beginning. Knowing that I will come in." Ye Yue said as she put down the cup in her hand and looked at the city lord.

"Yes, I'm afraid they will block you, but I also know that with your skill, they are not your opponents at all, you just broke in a matter of time. It's just that I didn't expect you to find me so quickly ."

"So the moment I opened the door, you were actually a little surprised, but I didn't notice it, right?"

"It was a little bit of surprise. I didn't expect you to be so powerful, for only a few minutes, so I avoided my maid, found my room, and broke in."

Listening to the words of the city lord, Ye Yue did not decline. Just nodded slightly.

"You just asked me to help you protect this city. Can you talk about the status of this city now? Just tell me about the latest situation and let me analyze it."

Hearing Ye Yue's words, the city lord sighed almost inaudibly, and then drank the tea in his hand.

"In fact, my honesty has fallen into a situation of extreme crisis. The protective cover outside him has been slowly being swallowed. As the gap in being swallowed grows larger, the effect of this protective cover is slowly disappearing. But we dare not to evacuate him easily."

Ye Yue nodded softly when she heard the words of the city lord. She already knew the general situation now. In other words, the entire city is now completely protected by a very dangerous protective cover. Once the function of this protective cover is completely lost, the city will also collapse.

"Since the protective cover of the city is slowly failing and its functions are getting smaller and smaller, why not just remove this protective cover and start a new protective cover?"

After hearing Ye Yue's words, the city lord shook his head gently, and then filled the tea cups in front of the two again.

"We haven't thought about this method, but it doesn't work at all, because there are a large number of beasts outside this city staring at the people in this city. Once the protective cover of this city is fully equipped, even if it is only a few seconds. By the time of the clock, the beasts outside will rush in and threaten the lives of the people in the city."

Ye Yue picked up the tea that the city lord had placed in front of him, began to sip it gently, and then sat quietly in front of Cheng Zhu, listening to him continue to talk.

"The thing that makes us dare not to act lightly is that most people in this city have no ability to protect themselves, and once we remove this protective cover, they will have to cooperate with us to restore it. At this time, they will be even more dangerous. In other words, it is fatal to them."

Ye Yue nodded after hearing the words of the city lord. Now he fully understands that although the function of the protective cover is slowly disappearing, the protective cover cannot be removed. In other words, if you want to protect the residents of this city, you must restore its functions on the basis of this protection.

"So you thought of repairing the protective cover, right?"

The city lord gently put down the tea cup in his hand, then cast his gaze on Ye Yue and slowly nodded.

"Yes, so I thought of repairing this protective cover with a memorial method, so that's why I will arrest your friend, because we need a woman with powerful magic power."

"But you know that this method will not work. It is very selfish to sacrifice other people's lives in order to protect this city."

"I also know that this behavior is very selfish, but as long as the protective cover can be repaired, we can protect the residents of this city and exchange the lives of one person for the lives of tens of thousands of people. I think it is worth it. of."

"A person's life is not a commodity and cannot be measured equally. How do you know that a person's life is not worth the lives of tens of thousands of people? Maybe the value of this person's life is greater than the value of the lives of people in the world!"

Listening to Ye Yue’s words, the city lord did not refute. He also knew that his thought was too selfish. That’s why he would pray for Ye Yue’s help at this time instead of using his friends again to repair it in a memorial way. Protective cover.

"So now I have given up this decision, so I desperately need your help to help me protect this city. As long as you can assist me, I can give up everything I have."

"Naturally, I know this, but now I don't know what ability I can write about protecting the lives of the residents in this city when you protect this city, except for the method you just said."

The city lord closed the lid of the teapot and began to gently shake his head. He didn't know how to repair the protective cover without taking a memorial ceremony.

"Is there no other way to pass it down? After all, this protective cover cannot be as strong as it was put on from the beginning. It must be repaired."

"It has been repaired, but..."

Before the city lord had finished speaking, he stopped, and Ye Yue looked at him to see his hesitant expression. In fact, the city lord didn't say it, he already knew it. What is the latter? It must be that they have always repaired the protective cover in a memorial way. It is worthwhile to think about one person's life to protect thousands of people.

But now their appearance makes them have to break this tradition and look for a new way to repair the protective cover.

"I have understood the situation, and I will try my best to write yours, but now I need to enter your library to check the materials, and I hope to get your permission."

"Of course you can come in and out of our library here? I can give you this privilege."

Ye Yue heard the city lord's words, nodded, got up and just wanted to leave, but was stopped by the city lord again.

"My maids..."

"Don't worry, they are not life-threatening, I just tapped their acupuncture points."

After Ye Yue threw a sentence, she no longer hesitated, turned around and opened the door and walked out. ..
