Chapter 140: Red-Haired Oni
"Oni, what are these to you?" Knowing the name of the elf, I asked curiously.
Oni's face sank when he heard this. He patted a box next to him and said, "These are dangerous goods, gunpowder, you know?" Gunpowder! The dark Ones are at war with us. Although it has not yet reached our city, it is still prepared. β
There are indeed two big characters written crookedly on the box in chalk, dangerous. And there are also words to be careful.
"Where did you get all this? And also...... What is it used for? "I'm getting more and more curious about why he doesn't buy finished bombs, like Rick's series.
"It's all contraband, and to tell you the truth, it's all bought on the black market. Hey, hey, hey......" Oni smiled at me and didn't tell me what he was doing with it. It seems that he still thinks that I am inextricably linked to the dark side.
Mai Tian reached out and dipped a little of the spilled gunpowder on the ground, put it to his nose and sniffed it.
"This is C-X high gunpowder, which is extremely lethal to buildings, and is generally used in the occasion of fixed blasting of buildings. It's not very useful in war. Mai Tian said professionally.
I looked at the wheat field in amazement, how she knew more than me, the demolitionist. Oni also looked at the wheat field in surprise and told the truth: "These are indeed not used in war. It is the meaning of our city lord to cut the wind, in case our main city is invaded by the dark army in the war, the entire city will be blown up by our own hands. β
"No, it's too extreme, right?" I frowned.
"No way, our city lord is such a lord, I'd rather be a broken jade than a whole tile, I'd rather be a chicken head than a cow queen, well, the soldier can be killed but not humiliated......" Oni began to go crazy again.
"Okay, okay, let's burn all the jade together." I don't dare to compliment their thoughts on the city lord, and there are those who destroy their own main city, what kind of spirit is this.
Oni scratched his head and said, "Actually, I don't want to see such an outcome, and I hope that the Dark Legion will never come to our city of Fein." By the way, the Dark Army came to our main city from the direction of Frango some time ago, and after being stationed for three days, they bypassed our city of Fein and headed for El City. I really don't know what they're doing. β
When I heard these words, I was shocked. The Dark Legion has already been to Frango? I hurriedly opened the friends bar, well, Ah Xing should still be in Frango City now. I sent a message to Ah Xing.
"Ah Xing, are you there?"
"You're drinking, where are you? You don't know, I joined the Fanny fans support club, the dragon meat is too hard, the night forest is a small soldier on the dark side, half a cigarette lives in our castle, and I plan to give you a dragon spear......"
Looking at the bunch of inexplicable messages sent by Ah Xing, I am the second monk and I can't figure my head. I hurriedly sent another message.
"What a mess, answer me two questions. One, are you still in CitΓ© Frango. Second, did the Dark Legion go to war with Franco? β
"Of course I'm in the most beautiful place in the world, it's as peaceful as ever......"
Ah Xing's words put my mind at ease. I told him that Wheat Field and I would go over today, and asked him to wait for me at the castle. Then continue to chat with Wheat Field and Oni the Red Hair. Not only does Oni look more avant-garde, but he also thinks differently.
"Do you know why the dark side is at war with the light side?" He was asking the wheat field mysteriously.
"Because darkness and light are incompatible opposing forces." Mai Tian replied as a matter of course.
"No, no, no, those are just scratching the surface. In fact, they are all NPCs, just a bunch of programs. We should analyze the problem from this perspective. "Oni started to put himself in his shoes. gushed endlessly: "If you think about it from this point of view, well, what can they do if they don't open a station?" The game itself is set up in such a way that it doesn't matter what justice is or what is not just, we are just a bunch of tools to be used. But as time goes on, we may become the final masters, but what's the use, we still don't know what we believe in, yes, faith. What the hell are we fighting for......"
Looking at Oni's compassionate appearance, I became interested: "Since it doesn't matter whether it is righteous or not, then why are you still on the light side instead of the dark side?" β
Oni glanced at me and said, "I'm just in the light for now, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" People who have no faith don't care about loyalty at all, loyalty is only because the weight of betrayal is not enough...... For example, if Layla chooses the dark side, then I will not hesitate to leave the light. β
Interestingly, this Oni is frank enough to admit that he has no faith.
"But according to you, isn't Layla your faith? You can ignore the choice between darkness and light, but remain loyal to her, I'm right, Oni. Wheat Field said to Oni.
"Alas...... I'd love to admit what you're saying. But there's another voice in my head, Layla, Layla. She's just my only spiritual support when I'm spiritually empty. People can live without faith, but they must not do without spiritual support. Family, love, career, honor, etc., etc., these spiritual pillars are the driving force for people to live. Remember the great emancipation of humanity in the last century? How many people who have no faith and spiritual support have chosen to die...... "Oni is rational and terrible, and can recognize himself so clearly.
"You can find your own faith, like joining a church or something." The sea snake suddenly interjected.
Oni shook his head: "Sometimes I think people with religious beliefs are stupid and show a kind of ignorance...... Of course, that's just my opinion. There are so many people in the world who don't have faith, and they don't care if there is one more me. Whatever, if you come to play the game, you have to follow the customs, long live the bright side! β
The sea snake smiled at me, and at this time, I thought of the Xiao family at the same time as the sea snake, the family that was extremely devout to the ** sect. If Oni were allowed to see a random person in the Xiao family, then he would not have the ridiculous view that religious believers are stupid.
Although Mai Tian did not know the Xiao family in Northern Europe, she did not quite agree with Oni's point of view.
"Oni, you're a little too smart." The witch said with a smile.
"You're right, people call me Oni the smart." Oni said.
"Clever Oni, isn't he some handsome Oni?" I said it deliberately.
"Clever Oni, handsome Oni, red-haired Oni, handsome Oni...... I have a whole bunch of nicknames, and I love them. Oni said happily.
"I like it too." The sea snake laughed.
"Hey, big guy! And beautiful women, ugly men, I don't know your names and nicknames yet. Oni suddenly remembered the stubble.
"My boss, it turned out. Nickname, happy original. The sea snake pointed at me, then continued to point to the wheat field and said, "My sister-in-law, wheat field." The nickname is the Happy Witch. As for me, my name is Sea Serpent, strong sea serpent. β
The sea snake also has a good sense of humor, and in the blink of an eye, the three of us have three nicknames.
"You can see that you are strong enough. Well, ugly men are happy enough, and witches are happy enough. To be honest, I really envy you, where are you going? "Oni has finally regained his normal way of thinking.
"CitΓ© Frango, we stayed there. You are welcome to visit us in the future. I said.
"It's a good place to be, yes, Franco is the second most beautiful city after we are in Fine." Oni said.
"Oh? As you said, I'd like to go to Finetown. β
"Maybe you don't think it's beautiful when you go there, but for me, even if it's a pile of ruins, as long as Layla is there, it's always the most beautiful." Speaking of Layla, Oni's acting skills flickered again, as if he saw hope.
"This Layla...... It's an NPC. "I guessed.
"You are not allowed to discriminate against NPCs!" Oni fights for NPCs: "In this world we are virtual, they are real!" β
"I don't have any discrimination, I'm just curious about how beautiful Layla is." I said.
"Layla...... You want to know how beautiful she is? Let's put it this way, I can't help but love this beautiful girl deeply, and from the first time I saw her, this love has become forever solidified, forever......" Oni reveled in the memory.
Looking at Oni, who had fallen into his own thoughts again, Mai Tian pinched me fiercely: "Tell me honestly, how did you feel when you first saw me." β
My first time seeing a wheat field? I went back to that afternoon a few months ago, when I ran on the road and found a newly opened supermarket, and the image of the wheat field lingered in my mind. I learned from Oni and said, "The first time I saw you, I was fascinated by your back. What's that, it's gone forever......"
"My back? Forever? Mai Tian laughed: "You're so stupid, you can't coax girls." β
"Well, I'll admit that at first glance I just thought, well, this girl is good. But the key is second look. "I can't lie, I'm honest.
"Second look?" Mai Tian said suspiciously.
"Ah, the second time I saw you, it was raining and you gave me a towel when I ran to the supermarket. Later, after drinking the water, I realized that I had forgotten to bring the money. Since that time, I have wanted to see you every day, to see your figure, your smile, to listen carefully to every word you say...... Since that time, I, a knight, have long wanted to protect you forever......" I recalled.
"Oh~~~~ That time, I remembered." Wheat Field nodded.
"Hehe, remember?" I smiled and looked at the wheat field.
Mai Tian said to me solemnly: "I remember, you haven't paid me back yet!" (To be continued)
