265. May you always be a teenager
In the office, Merlin and Lynn looked at each other and smiled.
"Well, now I believe that your magic net sorcery can indeed change the world, and it is indeed quite interesting."
Lynn looked at the wreckage of the white paper on the table, which had been reduced to ashes, and the power of the flame that had exceeded the limit of the paper's carrying capacity had burned the poor white paper to slag.
On the other side, Merlin was faced with a puddle of black ash, the same remains of paper that had been corroded by an excess of demonic power.
"Of course, it's just that the development of this witchcraft has only just taken shape, and there are still a lot of troubles to be solved after that."
Merlin waved his sleeves, and the invisible wind of magic drove the black ash on the table into the trash can next to him, he sighed and said.
"This is only the first step to achieve instant communication, in the future, I also hope that the magic network can transmit more things, such as sound or pictures or even images, etc., and it is not just a one-to-one communication between two people like now, I hope that the nodes of the magic network can be spread all over the continent, so that everyone can use the magic network to talk happily with friends."
"On the magic net, I think everyone can abandon everything in reality, ignore the gap between identity, race, nationality, and everyone can speak freely and express their opinions to their heart's content."
"I believe that when the time comes, two people from different countries, who have never known each other, and even people of different races, can get acquainted because of the magic net, and become good friends because of their common hobbies and common ideals, such a scene is really beautiful to think about."
Merlin thought back to the days of his previous life when he was happy with silly netizens on the Internet, and a nostalgic smile appeared on his face.
Lin looked at the handsome young man smiling in front of her a little stunned, although during this time, she has almost become accustomed to this colleague's perfect appearance that can easily touch people's heartstrings, and she will no longer be handsome like at the beginning and almost have a nosebleed, but at this moment she is still heartbeat, and a naughty deer in her heart began to jump happily.
Probably because this smile is too gentle, it is like the winter noon sun, warming people's hearts.
Just looking at this smile, Lin could feel the beautiful yearning for the future of the beautiful young man in front of her, and the sincerity when he just said that fantasy.
This made Lin can't help but follow the words of the boy and start fantasizing, she fantasizes about the beautiful and harmonious scene like a fairy tale world, humans and elves and other alien races put down their wars, only because of their common hobbies and ideals and become friends, angel children can chat with the children of demons on the magic web, everyone can each draw their own life happiness into a painting to the magic web, or they can confide their real grievances to a group of friendly strangers......
Eventually, however, Lynn sighed and shook her head, stopping the pointless fantasy.
Reality is not a fairy tale after all, ordinary people may not know the cruelty of this world, but Rin, who is the top of the church as the defense line of the human world, knows more than anyone how chaotic the situation in this world has become.
............
Since the rise of the Lord and the human race, the human race has expanded too fast, and it took them less than a hundred years to defeat the once masters of the continent, those major xenoracial races who were born with extraordinary powers, so that they can now only hide in the jungle secret realm in a remote place to survive.
Those xenomorphs have never given up their plans to counterattack the continent in the past thousand years, and the church has already received a lot of information that the orcs of the grasslands, the elves of the jungle, the dwarves in the hills, and other silver races have recovered from the original defeat after thousands of years of recuperation, and they have begun to move.
Recently, there have been warriors in the Great Wall of the border who have seen the presence of dragons, and several border cities have also been sacked by dragons.
What's worse is that after the collapse of the empire in recent years, the struggle for power of the lords in various places has made the people miserable, and the resentment and negative energy that soar to the sky have made the abyss more and more powerful, and several new demon gods have been added to the dark ministers, and the borders of the human world have shrunk repeatedly, and they have retreated thousands of miles compared to the imperial period, if it weren't for the protection of the black dragon god, the entire frontline might have collapsed completely.
It can be said that the current situation in the human world has reached the most dangerous moment in a thousand years, and the real crisis is lurking.
But if you look at the inside of the human race, the southern empire that was once the main force of the battle collapsed, the major forces were rotten internally, and the disgusting moths couldn't see the situation clearly, and there were still people who coveted the fox lady of the orc race all day long, the ageless beauty of the elf race, and the mountain gold mine of the dwarf race, one by one, they were carried away by interests, and they were crazy to test the bottom line of the aliens, which made the relationship between the two sides deteriorate and intensify.
If it weren't for the barbarian tribe with the northern snowfields that had recently risen up and provoked the big beam, this huge human race would eat jujube pills.
...........
"Alas........."
Lin sighed again, just this messy situation, Merlin's fairy tale dream of counting on the harmonious coexistence of all races can only be a dream after all.
Unless a fierce man can descend from the sky to dominate the human world, suppress the abyss, unite the astral boundary, and subdue the aliens, then there is hope that the world will be peaceful, but can anyone really do such a great cause?
She opened her mouth, wanting to pour a basin of cold water on Merlin, but after thinking about it, she didn't make a sound.
Although he was a little puzzled why Merlin, a powerful wizard who couldn't even see the depth of her, still had such unrealistic childish fantasies, when he saw the young man's face and gentle smile, he still couldn't bear to use this cruel reality to tarnish the beautiful illusions of such a kind and beautiful young man.
"Eun, come on, Merlin, believe in yourself, you will do it."
Lynn suppressed the sadness of reality in her heart, and switched to the professional smile of the church staff, with the tenderness of a big sister, so encouraging, just as she had comforted ordinary people who had survived their suffering.
Living in such a world, sometimes it's better not to know too much, and being ignorant will make you happier.
Since Merlin is smiling like a child now, may he always be a teenager.
Merlin: "......."
He looked at Lynn who was smiling like a virgin a little strangely, and he always felt as if he was inexplicably despised.
