In just two and a half years, Kronos cultivated Lin An to this point, instilling a bunch of spell specimens, but he did not guide Lin An to study the principles of spells, and taught her how to study and think on her own.

As Christian said, Kronos was cultivating a tool, a tool to achieve his ends, and never treated her as an equal contractor. 「」

Lin An's face was complicated.

If there is no resentment in her heart, it is absolutely impossible, but perhaps because she has not really become his puppet now, but Cronus has died and fallen, but her obsession has not come to fruition, and in the end she cannot save the fate of her own clan from danger, which is even more tragic.

Perhaps because Kronos is dead, the crime has been reduced a lot in Lin An's heart.

After all, although he had calculated for her all the way, it was also true that he brought her back to life when she was dying and despairing, and during this time he repeatedly saved her from danger and helped her gradually develop the ability to protect herself and become independent.

This kindness, as well as three years of getting along day and night, cannot be erased.

What's more, if you change places, one side is a clansman who is in a desperate situation because of herself, and the other side is a contractor summoned by yourself, and if it is Lin An, he will definitely make the same choices and plans as Kronos, and even surpass it.

Because of Kronos's death, Lin An has always had no good impression of the five people, even if in order to survive, she knows that she is born with a camp hostile to the demons, but people are not grass and trees, and no one can treat people who have been with each other for three years without the slightest affection and memory. 「」

Lin An was silent.

Christie looked at her quietly for a long time, as if knowing that she was not in the mood to talk and investigate the cause of the bottleneck, and smiled. Something to say:

Sometimes, even if our feelings are biased, reason will know how to make the right choice. 】

From insinuations, to bluntly exposing Kronos's purpose. And now he is talking about it...... Only then did Lin An know that Christian's approach and wooing were not without purpose.

She quickly figured out why. smiled in his heart, saying that he really couldn't play these old monsters who had lived for thousands of years.

It was not difficult to respond to them, as they said, Lin An was very sensible and knew how to choose.

But she was silent and did not answer.

Christian's figure disappeared into space.

Lin An looked at the place where he disappeared, quietly distracted.

***

There was one failure at a time. Lin An once again stopped at the ladder of the twenty-ninth zero-level spell configuration.

The space fluctuated without warning, and Christian's figure appeared, suspended in the void, but the height was parallel to Lin An. 「」

This is true for several appearances in a row.

Lin An had already noticed this and knew that Christian was a person who paid attention to details.

Of course. There are very few mages who don't pay attention to detail.

[Young master, have you thought about it? 】

Lin An sighed slowly.

[Christian, as I said, I don't want to get involved in the conflict between humans and demons. 】

[The success or failure of the two races has long been the trend of the times, and we don't need the young master to do anything. We have a lineage in the outside world, and if we have any plans that need to be arranged, we just tell the lineage disciples to do it. 】

-- The situation is like a chessboard, and they have already laid out the chess pieces to win the victory.

Lin An was stunned. After turning his mind, he immediately knew that the inheritors behind Andre and Joshua were most likely the handiwork of these old immortal legends.

Listen to Christian continue-

【…… You only need to accept our offer, and even if there is any danger, the safety of the young master will be the first priority we have to guarantee......]

Lin An smiled bitterly. 「」

Of course she does. This kind of treatment is not because of herself, but because of her strategic position as the "candidate for the Lord of Babel", the significance of the human race is already above the five guardians, if, in the end, she can finally become the master of the Tower of Babel-

Then, on a certain level, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the co-leader of the human race.

This qiē is all due to the Tower of Babel.

It's no wonder that after the townsfolk explained her identity as a candidate, they didn't explain anything and released her. It turned out that the things she had promised before were just appendages to the Babel Tower's candidate for the master, and even if she didn't want it, she would automatically come to the door.

But this feeling of the rise and fall of the Dan clan, Lin An just felt that he shuddered and was overwhelmed when he thought about it.

Lin An thought for a while.

[Let's not talk about the difficulty of getting the approval of the Tower of Babel and becoming the owner of the tower! ] What I don't understand is that you and your companions have come to an agreement? You know, I was once a contractor of Kronos, and this fact cannot be changed by anything, don't you have any doubts? 】

Lin An said slowly,

Moreover, not only are your companions hostile to me, but I am not of the same mind as you. "Now we can't help each other, but when you become the tower master, you are fish on the board...... Even so, your companion is willing to teach me to become the tower master? 】

Why not? It turns out that you were only deceived and used by Kronos. 】

Christian looked at Lin An calmly,

The fact that you are a Terran, born to belong to our camp, and who is now a candidate for the Lord, is vital to the future of our race—this fact cannot be changed in any way. As long as you can become the tower master and lead our people to revival, then any other sacrifices will be worth it. 】

[Even if the life and death of the five of you are put in my hands? 】

[If you can become the tower master, the life and death of the entire human race will be in your hands, as for the five of us, what is it? ] 】

Christian smiled faintly, his face was ordinary but resolute,

[When we agreed to become the wardens, we were ready to give everything.] 】

Indeed, for the legendary powerhouses, no matter how big the Tower of Babel is, it is still a cage that restricts their freedom.

The outside world is so big, but they can't take a step out of the Tower of Babel forever, they can only be trapped for 10,000 years, enduring almost endless loneliness and responsibility.

To sacrifice one's life, one only needs to rely on a moment's blood;

But he stayed alone in the tower for 10,000 years. "No matter how strong the sense of responsibility is and how much blood there is, it will be worn out over time.

Replaced by Lin An. Such a day is not to say 10,000 years, even a day can hardly be passed.

If it weren't for the rise and fall of the race, be prepared to pay a qiē. Even if the Tower of Babel could extend its life tenfold, it would not make a legendary powerhouse willing to sacrifice his freedom to become a guardian.

Comparing hearts to hearts, Lin An thought that he could not achieve such sacrifices and dedication as them, but he had to admit the greatness of the five people.

They are truly great men.

Lin An's face was moved, and he fell silent again.

The crux of the matter lies in the identity of this candidate.

The Tower of Babel has existed for many thousands of years. The Warden has gone through countless appointments, but there have only been one or two candidates for the Lord, which is too rare, and as soon as Lin An's Terran appeared in front of the five people, she ruled out the possibility of leaning towards the Demon Clan. They would never let go of the possibility of cultivating her to become the tower master.

The history of this plane is too long, during which many races have risen and fallen, and only the stronger ones in the race can protect the race from continuing and not repeating the mistake of the demon invasion plane.

After understanding the five people's belief and dedication to racial revival, Lin An knew that ordinary reasons could not dispel their attachments, unless she informed them of her identity as visitors from another world.

But even if Lin An was moved by the belief of the five people, a moment of emotion could not defeat reason after all.

Especially something like this that has to do with her survival. With Kronos dead and her fellow villagers asleep again, she would never let the fourth know about it.

Lin An continued to be silent and did not answer.

Somewhat disappointed, Christian left again.

***

[How about it, did she say yes?] A jagged voice asked.

[Nope.] 】

The scene was silent for a moment, and a female voice said: [Sure enough. Since she can become a candidate, at least there is a place where she can be partially recognized, such a person's will is not so easy to be shaken. 】

【…… Perhaps, we should use something else. An old voice said solemnly.

[Oh? 】

[Kassan, tell me? 】

The old voice coughed and said slowly:

[We have no way of knowing her origin and identity, but the alchemy of the human body that is obviously the work of Kronos is a suspicious thing, and she has no attachment to our race, but she seems to have a lot of affection for Kronos, who has only been with her for three years and has obviously used her—obviously she is not an emotionally indifferent person......]

[I see! The female voice is slightly higher, [she has no feelings for race, maybe she is an orphan or has no relatives; And the alchemy product of her body is probably because the original one is no longer usable, or even dilapidated and dying, and Kronos once rescued her from a desperate situation, so her feelings for Kronos are so deep! 】

But what does this have to do with convincing her? The middle-aged man said in a straight voice, I don't know why.

[This means that if she loses Kronos, she is likely to be helpless in this world, and even with her appearance, if she incurs more powerful covetions, it is likely that she will not be able to protect herself with her strength alone. 】

[If she can't even protect herself, then she will never be recognized by Babel Tower and Kronos, and she will never have the confidence to refuse our promotion and cultivation,] said in a deep male voice, [According to my contact with her, she is not simple. 】

[Yes, even for the sake of her special status, we can't risk losing her heart and turning her away from her race, so I don't want to use any intrigue to design her ......]

The old man's voice was still slow, but steady and steady,

[However, feelings can be cultivated, and she is still young, just an immature child, and our hope for her is in the future, in a thousand years from now...... We don't need to rush it, as long as the Tower of Babel opens in a thousand years, and she is willing to come back again, then we will win. 】

The deep male voice spoke again.

[Yes, she is still young and has a lot of affection waiting for us to win, if she has seen the fierceness of the race war for herself, and seen her lover, friends and companions die at the hands of the demons, then she will also follow the same path as us. 】

[However, before that, she was just a seedling, and she needed to go through wind and rain, and she also needed our patience to irrigate and protect. (To be continued.)
