Chapter 1276: God's Gift (I)
There are also many things in the Xi'an temple that Felicity left behind, or built in Felicity's unique way. Icabold has spent a lot of effort on the various magic circles in the temple, making all kinds of subtle changes. However, the more delicate the thing, the more difficult it was to adapt to the sudden change, and all the work was lost overnight, so that the middle-aged pastor, who didn't seem to be moved by anything, shook his fist like never before and let out an angry roar.
Sean's description was simple and dry, and his tone was flat, but he was obviously impressed by it, so much so that he casually said that it didn't really make sense. The corners of Ed's mouth twitched when he heard this, and while he regretted it, he secretly regretted that he couldn't watch that moment...... I still want to laugh.
But the pastor quickly threw his energies into the new challenge, and was even more excited than before.
He said it would take at least two more days to restore the previous set-up. Sean said. He turned his gaze from the moon outside the window to Ed and asked him, "Now, isn't the 'other way' you call more likely to be successful?"
Ed was stunned for a moment and instinctively denied: "...... Not me!"
Sean was silent for a moment.
"I didn't doubt this. He said.
Ed smiled awkwardly. He had already reacted, and Sean's words were literal...... It was simply asking him "yes or no", rather than suspecting that he had done something recklessly—such as making the moon rise again after an unknown number of years.
It was he who overreacted. Facing Sean, he has always had a feeling of weakness and grievance, like facing an elder who is too demanding and unreasonable, and never refuses to pretend to him. obviously wants to get the other party's affirmation, but no matter what the other party says, I can't help but think awkwardly about the bad things. Even if you can finally be honest with each other on the shore of Xi'an Lake a few days ago, it will not be so easy to turn around for a while.
“...... If the sun doesn't rise again because of the appearance of the Magic Moon, that's good for us. He frankly admitted.
Sunlight brings life, moonlight brings magic – but what good is magic if life is gone?
"There are only a handful of people who can do that. Sean pointed to the full moon, "No one knows the outcome better than him...... And that will never be his ultimate goal. ”
"You want to find that guy?" Ed was pretty much sure of the possible candidate, and the guy was not only difficult to deal with, but ...... It's also hard to find.
It's harder to find than Anckland.
Sean shook his head: "There's no need. It's not what he's already done, it's what he's going to do. If I'm guessing correctly, he'll soon jump out on his own. ”
Ed thought silently, but he didn't know it that way: "That...... Man, his situation is a little ...... Complex. ”
When they began to talk and stopped, York quickly took a polite farewell. Sean relaxed a little, but still sat up straight.
"Do you know who it is?" he asked.
"The biggest possibility is Sackse, although I don't know how he did it, but he is probably not inferior to Ankland, and he is ......"
He had two souls, and in a sense the child of Starlight—Ed sometimes felt he knew enough about the half-dragon, half-elf guy, and sometimes he thought he knew too little. Did he really awaken the kinder half, or was it all just a disguise?
"The woman in the apse, the white crow. He said, "I don't think she was teleported by accident." ”
He said frankly, because he didn't think that the white crow could hide it from Sean...... I didn't think what the crow said was the truth. How good that woman was at deceiving people, he had seen it with his own eyes.
"Yuanzhi Valley may indeed have a magic circle that leads to here, but she should have come to me. ”
Walking side by side to the apse, he told Sean his judgment, "She may have had a real hard time leaving, but it is also possible that she is deliberately trapping herself - she doesn't want to be seen as an enemy or a threat." ”
"Perhaps, should, maybe. Sean repeated. He did not comment on this...... But that's already an evaluation.
Not so good reviews.
Ed felt his ears heat up, and he was a little annoyed and wanted to retort.
“...... She's here to find cooperation. He said that the short sentence did not use a word that represented "I'm not sure, I'm just guessing."
"Perhaps. Sean replied to him.
Ed could only take a deep breath and tell himself, "Don't think about it!"
Sean's footsteps paused slightly.
“...... You are afraid of failure. He said.
Ed instinctively avoided his gaze—something he couldn't argue with.
"You're not so unconfident in your judgment, but you're still worried that it's wrong...... You're worried that will lead to worse results. You'll be bolder if you're the only one to pay, but if not, you'll be more likely to hesitate and hesitate. When you feel like someone you can lean on, you're ...... Faults are always very obvious. ”
Ed stared down at his toes.
"You can't always count on someone to push you, Ed. The old but still calm and powerful voice told him: "Make decisions, take responsibility, even if you fail – if you don't have the courage to accept failure, your success will be just a fluke of fate." I know you never intended to be a leader, you prefer to be an uninhibited adventurer...... But you're already in such a position. One day I'll die, maybe not long after, and I may not even see the end...... Who are you going to count on? Scott or York Tracy?"
“...... York, isn't that appropriate?" Ed replied in a whisper, "He's got the Sword of Light......"
"But he doesn't see the world as wide as you do," Sean sighed slightly, "and he can accept much less 'maybe' than you...... Even if you were willing to stand behind him, if he was determined to sacrifice your ice dragon friend in exchange for victory, if he had to give up elves and dwarves to save humanity, would you really obey his decision? If he was wary and suspicious of the whisperer who would inevitably rise – and that was almost certain – would the 'cooperation' you wanted really come true? What would you do then?...... Ed, you can't go back any longer, or try to save everything by yourself, that is something that no one can do, even if you want to be a god now...... Would you like to?"
Ed shook his head vigorously, "I don't think that's going to solve the problem." ”
"So," Sean looked at him, "to get what you want, a better outcome, you have to hold all the strength and support you can get...... Can you do it?"
