Chapter 441 The courage to have nothing

763

Klein's heart slowly sank.

Of course he hoped that this was just his own guess, the worst guess. In fact, nothing happened to anyone and nothing happened... But he couldn't think of other better developments and couldn't deceive himself because of Amon's actions and personality.

Completely limited his imagination.

Hermes was obviously aware of the truth of the matter. He cast a vaguely comforting look at Klein, and then casually said a few words to the guard before quietly ending the dream and leaving his will.

At the edge of the Moon City stronghold, the guard's body suddenly shook, and he suddenly woke up because he lost his balance.

I almost fell asleep while holding my weapon!

The guard was frightened into a cold sweat by his dereliction of duty. People living in this land must remain vigilant at all times as long as they leave the city. An inconspicuous nap may kill everyone——

Because dreams here are always dangerous.

He looked around nervously and found that his companions were still eating around the fire, and the meat soup in the pot had only been reduced by about half.

The guard relaxed and confirmed that only a few minutes had passed. He patted his face, regained his composure, and continued to patrol.

In the distance outside the stronghold, Hermes opened his eyes again.

Medici continued to act as the "audience" and used his personality to support "psychological invisibility". He and Hermes exchanged glances. The "audience" angel in the team nodded and said in a deep voice:

"You two should already understand the current situation."

He looked at Medici again: "His Royal Highness the Red Angel, my relationship and understanding with His Highness the Angel of Time are limited, so I dare to ask you, when pagans and believers of the Creator live together, will His Highness the Angel of the Time open a net for the believers of the Creator?

One side?"

Medici took a bite of the apple that exuded the fragrant smell of roasted chicken. He made a crunching sound that didn't sound like a fruit, but more like the sound of biting a bone. He smiled:

"What joke are you talking about, Hermes? Time has passed so long that you can't remember it anymore? When will the Lord allow pagans and believers to live together? This kind of thing is simply impossible to happen."

"Besides, I don't believe Amon would do this now."

Medici took another bite of the apple and chewed it. The overly rich fragrance made Klein look sideways. He wanted to ask several times what the apple tasted like and where it was grown. But his spiritual intuition told him

, he may not want to know this answer.

With Amon's ability, it is very simple to select devout believers from pagans, and it is also very simple to cure the physical defects of devout believers... But the problem is, he does not feel that he should do these things.

This is the difference between mythical creatures and humans.

If it is a human angel who believes in the ancient sun god, he will definitely provide some help to the distressed humans who share the same belief while staying alone in the Eastern Continent, just like the "Holy Word" who has been wandering here since the sun set.

Angel” Steve.

The "Angel of the Holy Word" was indeed one of the angels who once followed the ancient Sun God, and was one of the "angels surrounded by radiant figures" in holy scriptures and murals. However, after all, he has fallen following the true Creator, and his spirit and views have also changed.

Contaminated by these bloody and crazy spiritual powers. Coupled with the fact that hundreds of thousands of years have passed, He is emotionally weak and will no longer take the initiative to help the survivors in the land abandoned by God.

The "Angel of the Holy Word" does not feel that the outside world is beautiful. Instead, he enjoys the Eastern Continent and the Kingdom of God of shadow and sin.

He believed that the outside world was full of temptations, evil traitors, and was unwilling to tell the survivors what the outside world was like.

However, as a believer in the True Creator and an insider of the "Feast of Betrayal" (at least he thinks so), Steve will selectively pass on the belief in the True Creator to some survivors, causing these people to fall into despair.

And doubters have a new faith to rely on - it's better to have a gibbering mad God than a Creator who has been silent for over a thousand years, right?

God can babble, frequently ask for God's descent, and even babble to the point that "listeners" on this path will die if they are not promoted within a year. Although this is cruel and terrifying, it also proves that the existence of the true Creator is real, reliable, and active.

The degree is very high.

"Amon wouldn't do that."

For Amon, belief in the ancient sun god is a must.

Those who believe will not be rewarded, but those who convert will be punished. This is quite unfair, but this is Amon's attitude. Among the countless destroyed city-states in the land abandoned by God, there are some who lost everything in an instant because of conversion

lights of town.

In the silence where everyone had different meanings, Medici finished chewing the apple in his hand, reached out and pressed Klein's shoulder, and said in a calm tone:

"Just prepare for the worst, I mean, prepare for the city to be completely destroyed."

"Although, for some reasons, Amon, who has obtained the Origin Castle, cannot look at the Eastern Continent for a long time, but he is now the 'Fool', the good god who has given the survivors of the Eastern Continent the help they need, not to mention whether you can

Once you gain their trust, as long as you appear in front of them, they will definitely choose to pray to the 'Fool' immediately and report our actions."

"Worst plan? To put it bluntly... Klein, you should understand what I mean."

Medici rarely called Klein's name seriously instead of "you boy". He looked at the real "Fool" standing in front of him and saw that the other person was calm and silent. The Red Angel thought for two seconds.

After that, he chose to say directly:

"I know that you have helped these people, listened to the prayers of the people in this city, and seen their happy smiles, but now this place has become a battlefield. This is war, a small, invisible war.

You are on the battlefield, you cannot retreat, you must move forward."

"What are you going to do if they attack you?"

"What would you do if they were controlled by Amon and turned into his secret puppets or clones, crying for help from you without knowing whether it was true or not, and at the same time uniting to kill you?"

"If the entire city has been parasitized and will die or lose control as soon as the parasite is removed, what are you going to do?"

Hermes, who was watching the situation in the distance, turned his head and looked at Klein. He frowned and guessed that this young man might be the favored one of the ancient god "The Fool" based on the information that "he is a fellow villager of the Creator".

After all, they are all ancient, mysterious beings.

Klein fell silent.

Be hostile to the people of Moon City and Silver City, use force against them, and even fight to the death... To be honest, Klein has never considered this issue since the day he met "The Sun".

But now, this seems to be something that will happen almost 10% of the time, forcing Klein to face this cruel reality.

"I...I can't answer this question."

Faced with such a situation, even Klein could not help but feel a little troubled - he had never considered it from the perspective of force. The two angels willing to assist him were enough to suppress the two cities that did not even have Sequence 3, but

This is not what he wants - he is thinking hard about whether there is a way to avoid fighting... Amon is not in the Eastern Continent now, and he may not care about these few remaining people of the Eastern Continent who have changed their beliefs. Is it really possible?

Are you going to kill all these people?

He couldn't understand Amon's thoughts at all, and cold sweat slid down his forehead.

"Your Highness the Red Angel."

Hermes spoke for Klein to relieve his mental pressure: "The situation is not that serious yet. I have checked and found that the minds of most people in the city are normal. A small number of parasitic beings may also have

A chance for salvation.”

——"Parasite" also exists in two states.

The initial parasitism is similar to the relationship between Pales Zoroastrian and Leonard. The level is shallow. It can hear sounds and interfere with behavior, but it cannot directly affect the host's thoughts and thinking. If you want to communicate,

Must rely on sound.

And deep parasitism is the complete control that is close to the fusion of the two.

"But there is a solution to deep parasitism, isn't it? You can rely on great beings and deal with it through rituals that can get responses."

Medici sneered, but did not refute:

"Have you not figured out the current power and status of Amon yet, Hermes? Where can you find a high-ranking being who is willing to help? Are you planning to ask for mercy from... (Medici stamped her feet), or to ask for the Hidden Sage?

By?"

Hermes looked at Medici calmly with clear eyes: "Which one do you think is better?"

"None of them are good." Medici straightened his face and looked at Klein again, "The main thing is you. What are you going to do?"

"..."

Klein, who was suddenly asked, stood up straight as if he had just woken up from a dream. He seemed to have just come back from his own thoughts, and gave Medici and Hermes a firm look:

"I'm going to negotiate with the people in Yuecheng."

"Hey!" Medici smiled and patted Klein's shoulder hard, "Are you looking for death?"

Klein shook his head and said seriously: "Based on what I know about Amon, I think Amon likes to bully the weak. If you two angels appeared, he might kill him and parasitize or transform everyone."

If I negotiate with Moon City under the banner of 'The Fool', I may not be killed by Amon at the beginning. He may, may choose to play with me, torture me, and make me fall into despair."

"You are crazy." Hermes also did not agree with Klein's idea. "When you enter the Moon City, you must communicate with the high priest. He is most likely to have been parasitized. If you go there like this, you are just giving it to Amon for free!

"

"Yes." Klein asked, "But what can I give Him for free?"

This sentence made Hermes suddenly startled.

"I have nothing, Mr. Hermes."

Looking into those light golden eyes, Klein said word by word with great seriousness:

"I am not the Fool, nor the envoy of the Fool, nor anyone else. I am just an ordinary Sequence 3 Beyonder. There is nothing in me that is worthy of an angel who has obtained the Origin Castle.
