The Ordinary Me is Worshipped as a Deity by the Extraordinary Them-Chapter 67
When Willard was brought back, he was already on the verge of death after being roughed up by the raven.
Before Willard was taken away, Lan Zhe, out of humanitarian concern for his fellow collaborator, gave Willard a pitying look for a while before taking out a healing medication.
And Lan Zhe explained the meaning behind his gaze.
“This is the first time I’ve seen such a miserable wretch get beaten up so badly even before reaching Su Li, and get cleaned up so badly.”
As soon as he said that, Willard was dragged away. Qi, on the other hand, said goodbye to the people inside the small building before choosing to go find Euphia together with the dragged Willard.
Lan Zhe shrugged his shoulders, watching their departing figures, and calmly walked towards the kitchen.
Probably to prevent Su Li from being too focused on interpersonal conversations while eating and neglecting his own food intake, thus leading to insufficient nutrition, Egbert only brought up the collaboration he had reached with Willard after the meal.
Su Li fell silent.
A long, long silence.
This was not contemplation, but a genuine, momentary speechlessness, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, Su Li asked Egbert tactfully, “How on earth did you think that Willard, who had no understanding at first, would become a qualified undercover agent, or spy?”
Egbert was also stuck.
Su Li had already guessed his thoughts.
“Is it because you think Willard really has that value, and happens to be in a position that is not easily suspected, or is it because, in your eyes, I am really so fragile that I might die at any moment for no reason?”
“Of course not!” Egbert said without thinking, but he didn’t give a reason.
Su Li looked at him helplessly, resting his chin in his hands and deliberately slowing down his speech, so as not to hit Egbert too hard, who was already showing signs of questioning his own life.
“What is the concept of emergency wisdom?” Su Li asked a question that didn’t need an answer, and then continued, “Even if Willard really wants to become a tool in my hands, he still needs to stay alive before making that decision.”
“For the sake of staying alive, the suddenly enhanced wisdom, even if it surprises you, is essentially a one-time performance.”
“Conversely, let’s assume that Willard exists as an undercover agent in the Inner City. Leaving aside the question of whether he can obtain any important information by virtue of his identity as an heir being used as a tool, let’s just assume that he has already obtained the information. Can you guess how he will get this kind of message out?”
Su Li asked meaningfully.
Before Egbert could give an answer, Cyril tentatively said, “Write a letter?”
“But I always feel this way is too easy to be discovered. And once discovered, our means may also be immediately predicted and then reversed against us.”
“That’s right,” Su Li nodded approvingly. “Therefore, I don’t think Willard, with what he has learned over the years, can obtain an intelligence delivery method other than writing letters.”
“And if you plan to send someone to follow Willard, how could the royal family not be vigilant about the non-soldier personnel who suddenly appear around Willard?”
“And even if Euphia can find an intermediary who will not be suspected at all for information exchange, do you really think Willard’s value is high enough to require such an outstanding intermediary in all aspects to deliver his intelligence?”
Su Li looked at the overly concerned Egbert, who had once actively lowered his intelligence, and pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing, “But this so-called tool person is not entirely without value.”
“At least as long as Willard can return safely without actively leaking our news, in the short term, the royal family should not expect that we already know their plan.”
But at the same time, don’t think that we can get any useful intelligence from Willard.
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
Just take the much smarter Qi as an example. Wouldn’t it be impossible for this person, who has been taught as the legitimate heir for five whole years, to perfectly achieve the goal based on Willard’s proposed plan, if Willard, who was built as a tool from the very beginning, can’t do it.
“A person’s ability is not entirely determined by what he has learned, but in the absence of learning and sufficient experience, all the things that such people boast about are essentially exaggerations without self-awareness.”
Su Li was not the kind of person who habitually self-reflects every day, but he would seriously examine himself from time to time. Because only by recognizing himself can he avoid being too biased when looking at others.
Willard’s arrogance is something that he has not changed, even though he clearly recognizes his own powerlessness and incompetence.
Otherwise, how could he think that the people who use him as a tool would act according to the thoughts and ideas of a tool?
“Instead of getting caught up in getting intelligence from the Inner City, it would be better to speculate on the worst-case scenario of when Sadina City is at odds with the world, and how the people inside the city should save themselves,” Su Li directly brought up the worst possibility.
Egbert had almost been beaten down, and the only thing Su Li could do besides choosing to divert his attention was nothing else.
But thinking that his consideration was faced with a pervert, and might even make Egbert more perverted because of his considerate behavior… Su Li couldn’t help but shudder.
Just like how the raven always finds other people’s perversion, there is a certain inexplicable threshold that rises, Egbert is always able to sensitively feel Su Li’s good intentions.
So he now frankly said, “I’m completely willing to be an enemy of the world for Lord Su Li!”
…
…
Damn it, if I knew it would be like this, I wouldn’t have bothered with this person at all!
The roar in Su Li’s heart made his brows twitch uncontrollably twice.
Forcibly ignoring Egbert’s utterly unacceptable words, Su Li threw out his final words.
“In any case, try to improve what you have to prepare for the impending crisis. After all, the reason why the Church and the royal family choose to use various plots and schemes is that they don’t have absolute power to directly seize what they want.”
When you have absolute power, who would still be scrambling around?
Similarly, the reason why the Church and the royal family choose to scramble is because the strength of the people inside Sadina City is strong enough.
Su Li directly left behind the pervert former Holy Son who was shouting “As expected of Lord Su Li” behind him, stepping up the stairs to the second floor.
The raven, who was happily preening its feathers, snorted disdainfully at Egbert, who had fallen into a strange excitement and was being named by Lan Zhe again, asking to fight. It then flew straight to the kitchen, picked up a bowl of rice, and then flapped its wings directly to the second floor.
When Su Li heard a knock on the door, he found it strange. When he found that it was the raven carrying a bowl to find him, he couldn’t help but smile wryly.
“You don’t have to come specially to find me to feed you.” Su Li said, but still took the bowl with one hand.
He stepped aside to let the little raven fly into his room, then closed the door with one hand while holding the bowl.
The layout of the room also caught the raven’s eye.
It was a very simple layout, just like what Euphia had rented. Very much in line with Su Li’s lazy character, but what the raven was most concerned about was the pen and paper placed on the bedside table next to the window.
Although not very obvious, the raven could see from a distance the dense handwriting that was unique to Su Li.
And it was a different script from this world.
The long-lived ninth-level monster beast, although not shallow in its understanding of humans, had never seen such a square character.
Not hungry, just pretending to be an ordinary raven, the raven flew directly to the bedside table in an instant.
When Su Li came over with the rice, he didn’t make any move to drive it away. He just calmly watched the raven stepping on his important record book, and with one hand scooping some rice out of the bowl, he casually said to the little raven, “The leather notebook cover feels more comfortable to step on than the hard painting.”
If he didn’t know his identity hadn’t been exposed, the raven might have responded to Su Li’s conversation.
The raven gave up the idea of responding, and just like an ordinary little bird, jumped a few times on the notebook and then deliberately tilted its head to look at Su Li.
Su Li smiled, and then took out the rice grains again and placed them on the leather notebook for the raven to peck.
This action was repeated until all the rice in the bowl was fed.
But the raven still did not stop pecking the notebook.
The raven’s instinct told him that the things recorded in this notebook had never been seen or understood by anyone downstairs.
And Su Li would certainly know what a little raven is thinking.
Seeing the raven still pecking the notebook, Su Li suddenly realized and said, “Are you wanting to eat beef, oh no, are you wanting to eat Mou Mou meat?”
“Come to think of it, I haven’t had dried Mou Mou meat in a long time.”
The next moment, the raven’s beak pecked Su Li’s hand back.
Su Li:…
“You really want to know what’s in this notebook, huh?” Su Li took the notebook out from under the raven’s feet with a helpless laugh.
“Although I know you can’t understand, maybe telling another living being these heavy things will lighten me a bit.”
Who writes a diary seriously?
What Su Li wrote was not a diary, but the unreasonable things in this world from his perspective.
“The political truth represented by the alliance of the Royal Family of Amikbi and the Church.”
The clear and melodious youth voice softly recited the savage truth.
