Chapter 291 Liu Lingshan’s Educational Policy
Su Ming began to understand what Sylvie had said in the white mist world.
At that time, he was just weighing the lives of the villagers and companions in one village, and Liu Lingshan had to make a choice between saving the lives of millions of people or sacrificing millions of people to train a few people who could save more people in the future.
The higher the status and the greater the ability, the more cruel the decisions will be.
Frankly speaking, Su Ming did not think he was that valuable. He felt that what he had gained from practicing for a month could not be compared with that of millions of people.
Therefore, he felt that there must be deeper reasons behind Liu Lingshan's decision... otherwise the deputy director would not have made such a decision.
"I'll show you around here first. Please follow me."
Akratia's voice interrupted Su Ming's thoughts. He led Su Ming and the other two through the collapsed teaching building and into the staff dormitory next to it. Then they visited the dormitory, cafeteria, and medical room in turn.
The entire school was simply divided into three major parts. The classrooms were completely converted into places to place the wounded. All the students here no longer attended classes, but were responsible for taking turns guarding the black fog .
"There are currently 600 students in this school, and 59 of them are above A-level. Usually the monsters that come out of the black fog are C-level, and ordinary students can deal with them. But sometimes A-level monsters appear, and we can only rely on students with better talents to fight them."
After saying that, Akratia stopped, turned around and asked cautiously: "You three...will all be transformed, right?"
"Yes, we all can." Gu Dongshu nodded as a matter of course, his expression as if he had completely mastered the technique of alienation.
Su Ming quickly corrected him, "I've just gotten started. Although I can use it barely, I haven't been tested in actual combat yet."
When Akratia heard Su Ming's words, the joy on her face disappeared and a trace of worry appeared on her face.
But he soon cheered up.
"It's enough to be able to use it. Those monsters on the other side must be transformed. We don't have any monsters that can be transformed." Akratia said.
"Why not transfer the psychics who have mastered the ability of alienation here?" Su Ming asked.
"The intensity of the battles on the front lines varies. Monsters appear the least frequently here, and the powerful people are holding on in other places." Akratia replied.
Su Ming thought that this was definitely a deliberate choice made by the deputy director. She knew that their current strength was limited, so she deliberately chose a garrison location with little pressure.
Su Ming had a feeling that this mission should also be part of the training, and the purpose of the training was probably to hope that they would work hard to apply alienation to actual combat.
"What level will the enemy be?" Su Ming muttered to himself expectantly.
…
In the black fog area, a car had a flat tire and slowed down. Liu Lingshan opened the door and got out, letting out a meaningless laugh.
"The tire is flat. We'll have to walk from now on." Liu Lingshan said as he looked towards the dimly lit front.
Inside the black fog, their visible range is only thirty meters, and it is very dark farther away. But fortunately, the compass here is not malfunctioning, so they can keep moving forward in one direction. As long as they can keep moving in one direction, they will definitely reach the deepest part of the black fog.
"Why did you bring those three people here? Didn't you receive any reports about the black fog creatures before coming here?" Lind got out of the car and asked coldly.
"received."
"Then why bring them here? Those three people probably haven't mastered Alienation yet, right?"
"Su Ming has almost mastered it. The other two are still completely unable to use their abilities in actual combat, but their abilities are very suitable for defense. If they are smart enough, they should know who is the core of the battle.
As long as the three of them can cooperate well, they should be able to deal with the creature we just killed... and don’t we have your apprentice?" Liu Lingshan said with a smile.
Linde frowned: "I have a question I have always wanted to ask you."
"Ask."
"Why do you use such radical educational methods?" Lind asked.
In the process of training younger generations of people with special abilities, most instructors would choose to train their students to a level where they can survive, and then throw them into dangerous battlefields.
But Liu Lingshan is different. She only introduces students to the basics and then throws them directly into the battlefield.
The teaching method of an ordinary tutor is like a boxing coach teaching a student the basics of boxing and then letting him go to the ring to fight his opponent. However, Liu Lingshan only teaches students how to wear boxing gloves and then directly puts the students in an octagonal cage to fight a life-and-death black boxing match.
Linde never agreed with Liu Lingshan's educational philosophy. He felt that this kind of education was too crude and had no advantages at all.
"That's a good question, but it's difficult to explain. With your current social experience, you may not understand my explanation, so forget it." Liu Lingshan said.
Linde frowned even more tightly, feeling very depressed.
Since he was awarded the title of S-level specialist, no one could talk to him in such a perfunctory tone. Even the top leaders of the alliance were very tactful when rejecting his questions, but Liu Lingshan would tell him directly, "You are too stupid. You won't understand even if I tell you. It's better not to know."
To be honest, that was very hurtful to his self-esteem. Even though his self-esteem had been hurt like this since he was a child, he still couldn't adapt to it.
Linde took a deep breath and asked seriously, "Tell me about it, maybe I can understand it."
"Ha! If you said 'I can definitely understand', with your confidence, I would still waste my time talking to you. But with your current unconfident mentality, I feel it would be a waste of time to say anything." Liu Lingshan laughed.
"You say it, I can understand it!" Linde suppressed his temper and said it again.
Liu Lingshan glanced at Lin De, let out a meaningless laugh, and then said, "Do you know how long I have lived?
"Two hundred years?"
Lin De asked tentatively. He had known Liu Lingshan for such a long time, but he had never heard Liu Lingshan's specific age from anyone. He only knew that she had been there for a long time. She was one of the first people to join the alliance, and she had just joined the alliance for a short time when she was awarded the title of Immortal God of War .
"It's even longer than this. I gained the ability to regenerate before the Great Collapse." Liu Lingshan said.
Lin De's face changed and he looked at Liu Lingshan suspiciously, trying to see if the other party was joking.
"Have you studied the history before the Collapse?"
"History before the Collapse is not a compulsory subject." Lind replied.
Before the Great Collapse, the continent was a whole, and each country had its own history. These histories were closely related to the country's geographical location. Studying history has great reference significance, which is why so many historians are studying it tirelessly.
But after the Great Collapse, the regional structure changed completely, the order of human society was almost rebuilt from scratch, and many small societies emerged one after another.
Since then, little research has been done on the history before the Collapse.
Even if scholars study the process of social evolution on the Forbidden Island, they are reluctant to study the civilizations before the collapse.
After all, there are many valuable topics waiting for historians to study one by one. It would be foolish to ignore the precious modern history and study the history of the collapsed continent.
"Huaguo, you should know that we are speaking Chinese now."
"I know that."
"What about the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties?"
"It's the dynasty, I know."
"I am from the Ming Dynasty. I was born at that time." Liu Lingshan said expressionlessly.
Linde took a deep breath. As an S-level specialist, he felt excited for the first time in a long time. When he heard Liu Lingshan talking about his birth, he felt like a legendary picture scroll was slowly unfolding in front of him.
Ming Dynasty...Is this the beginning of the legend?
Linde thought silently in his heart.
"Let me briefly talk about my views on the topic just now. I was born in the Ming Dynasty, which was a feudal society. I was a commoner. My regeneration speed was not as fast as it is now. I could only stop bleeding and heal the wound quickly.
In short, my life was very hard at that time. I encountered famine shortly after I was born, and I survived by eating dirt.
Later he met a man and became a bandit. He lived until the Qing Dynasty, and then encountered the invasion of foreign forces. At that time, China almost fell, or it should be said that it had already fallen.
But then an incredible man was born, he saved the country, and to this day he is my greatest idol.”
"Did that person also have superpowers like you before the Great Collapse?" Lind couldn't help but interrupt.
"Ha! What's superpowers? That great man doesn't possess superpowers which are common things. You young people who were born after the Great Collapse will never understand how great he is." Liu Lingshan fell into distant memories.
Linde frowned: "What kind of person is he?"
"He was a man who could see the future and changed the world. At that time, hundreds of millions of people were living in dire straits, like ants in a frying pan... When the country was torn apart and faced internal and external troubles, he stood up.
He told everyone that a single spark can start a prairie fire; that man can conquer nature by moving mountains.
He turned the tide, propped up the collapsing building, integrated and rebuilt the broken country, and brought the displaced people together.
At that time, everyone became the same person, and everyone no longer considered themselves as individuals, but rather as a collective.
He stood at the top alone, but he told the whole world: "Long live the people."
Liu Lingshan stopped, blinked hard, took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly.
At this moment, Lin De actually felt a sense of sadness from Liu Lingshan.
Linde was shocked. He had known Liu Lingshan for so long, but he had never seen this woman show a sad expression. This made Linde even more curious. Who was this great man that Liu Lingshan admired so much? Was it Einstein or Newton? Or was it some unknown hero who was lost in history?
"What happened next?" Linde asked.
