Chapter 37: The Fate of the Tools
Yi Su stood quietly in front of her heart, just like Mu Yan not long ago, not moving.
He looked up at the two naked human bodies inside, and his royal blue eyes revealed a deep color of appreciation.
There is no greed or lust, it is like simply admiring a painting, a sculpture, a gemstone, with a reserved and presumptuous gaze, wandering on it.
There was no human brilliance in that face, in those eyes, even if he was like a human being.
As for Mr. John, who is dancing with teeth and claws, he has been frozen hardβcold.
It wasn't until Mu Yan stepped on the ice floe and walked all the way down that Yi Su turned around.
"He's noisy, so ......"
It looks like he's explaining his actions.
"There's no need to explain, I understand. But I would like to know ...... Your Excellency is here. Reason, or rather, motivation. β
Isu was a little surprised, and said softly, "Could it be that there is something wrong with my lingua franca?" If I'm not mistaken, you're talking as if it's the same word. β
"No, your excellency's literary attainments are obviously inferior to those of elves. The reason is objective, for example, I wonder how you dare to come to the territory of Duke Ash alone, and by whose orders or instructions. And the 'motivation' is subjective, like why are you here? Mu Yan smiled, beckoned two chairs, and the two sat facing each other.
"Thank you."
Izu sat down, her long, flowing blue hair draped behind her and shook like a waterfall for a moment.
"I can come here, naturally I have my own way, and Garden didn't find out."
"Can I understand that this is a reason why you didn't do anything to me?" Mu Yan blinked, "You understand I mean 'big fight', our relationship is not as good as the Duke seesβI mean Grand Duke Chablis." β
"Hehe, a human who calls himself a 'duke'." Isu tilted his head sideways and looked at the Grand Duke. The Duke was immediately dazzled by this perfect face, and showed a smile that he thought was quite graceful, and he was about to come forward to talk.
"He's a man." Mu Yan whispered.
The Duke suddenly came to his senses, and bowed his head in exasperation and fear.
"Hehe...... Izu's chuckle, "yes, as long as I don't do anything excessive, he won't find out about me." β
"It's just the reason, but what about the motive? Why are you here? β
"Actually, I come here a lot." Isu looked up at the ceiling, her gaze seeming to penetrate the attic to see the pomp and circumstance of the entire manor.
"Those humans are here feasting and drinking, and they are well-dressed on the surface, but they are like wild beasts behind the scenes...... Money and power, power and flesh, flesh and money are exchanged, smiling politely, suspicious of each other, and there is no shortage of killing, but in the end they all leave separately. Some of them died, some of them survived, I can't remember the faces, but I remember them repeating the same thing, contributing the same 'secretions'...... At first I didn't understand this.
"I've read those notes, more than 600 years ago. I can't read them all, but I understand what he's studying, the human named Gusmandz, and he does have a lot of weird, weird ideas that make it easier for me to understand humanity and understand you. β
"More than six hundred years ago?" Mu Yan narrowed his eyes, "So, you killed him?" β
Izuku nodded, "Of course, that's a strange opponent, otherwise I wouldn't have guarded his relics for so many years." β
"How strange?"
"Are you asking for information from me?" The Lord of the Currents tilted his head slightly, hooked the corners of his mouth, and showed an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Is there a charge for this according to your human rules?"
"Oh, I understand."
Mu Yan took out the basketball unabashedly, and then obviously saw the other party's eyes move.
Even God can't control his greed.
He picked a little bit with his little fingernail and threw it to the other party like a boogie.
"Enough, right?"
Isu fused his divine power directly in front of him, his long blue hair became more and more dazzling, and his face was much more energetic than before.
If only I could poison this, just poison this girl. Mu Yan thought to herself, but this is obviously impossible.
Immediately after that, the Lord of the Water Flow, like a buddy who had been addicted to drugs, stood up from his chair and muttered in a confused look:
"I did kill him, but I didn't kill him...... He looked confused. Ever since I was commanded by my lord to hunt down any creature suspected of being a god, I have met several people like him, who, without exception, could not perceive themselves as other until they died, and he was different.
"He's lost, so lost from the beginning...... I can understand the confusion because I felt the same way when I was born. β
Mu Yan nodded in understanding.
Elemental creatures were born in the Elemental Realm, and were born with little to no sanity, like those pale golden cotton light clusters on the Wind Sky Lake, and the cute creatures that stepped on them and made a popping sound were the most primitive elemental creatures. They are driven by instinct and slowly give birth to sanity as they evolve and grow.
However, after any intelligent creature has consciousness, once it lacks guidance and education, it will become at a loss...... After all, thinking is also the biggest difference between them and dead things, but thinking will cause confusion and philosophical questions.
ββ¦β¦ He almost went crazy because of this confusion, but when he saw me, he was overjoyed and exclaimed, and he said, 'I have a hunch that you are my kind, we are all tools, tools'...... I think it was that sentence that stung me at the time, so I killed him. β
Mu Yan frowned slightly: "But you said no?" β
"Yes, just as I was about to freeze his soul completely, something strange happened. He broke free from my shackles with the strength of a mortal...... Break free from the shackles of a god. Not only that, but he also smiled like relief......
"I looked at him and yelled 'I've found the answer, I've found the answer,' and waved at me and the whole thing was gone...... I can't describe what force made him go, it was a power that transcended divine power, almost equivalent to the rules. Of course, I'm not surprised, because I've seen similar scenes several times, but none of them are as contrasting as his......
"Wait, you mean he's gone?"
"Teleported, to be exact."
"Can you describe the scene in detail? Many more similar scenarios? Mu Yan asked hurriedly.
"Not much, I've experienced it twice. As for the scene......"
Izuy thought for a moment and summoned a stream of water that condensed in the air into the shape of a human being, then froze into white ice crystals.
"That's probably ......"
As the words fell, the ice crystals began to disintegrate. Starting from the head, it is broken and separated little by little...... Glowing specks flutter in the air like fireflies, turning into dust like the crystals. The powder floated upwards and disappeared.
"Looks like you're thinking of something." Yi Su looked at Mu Yan with interest.
"Of course ......"
The latter grinned and laughed uncontrollably.
He had seen this scene twice in Heru, once with Surya and once with Ricky, both of whom used the Hidden Light Secret Technique from the Templars, or from the Orientals......
And on Earth, he has seen it countless times.
This is exactly what the game uses to move a character offline, disappear from the battlefield after their health reaches zero, or enter the arena at the end of the queue......
He vaguely understood all this.
