Chapter Seventy-One: Is That So? (2-in-1)

Alam village.

Although it was not the first time that Wood had come here, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the village of Alam.

The village is still the same village, but it feels completely different.

For, just behind the little village, a magnificent cathedral appeared there at some point; And in the middle of the village, there is also an incomparably huge statue of Lord Wood.

"That's an exaggeration, isn't it?"

Seeing the changes in the village of Alam, even Wood has to admit it...... Rozval's stroke is truly extraordinary!

"Humph!"

Beatrice glanced at the statue in the center of the village, and said coldly: "It is better to make such a disgusting idol in the center of the village, it seems that this Alam village will not come to it in the future." ”

"Well, it's really not very satisfying."

Wood touched his chin and said shamelessly: "This statue does not reflect my handsomeness and majesty at all, and it is too short, those lovely believers in my family, but they have built a statue that is taller than a giant stone tablet." ”

Beatrice rolled her eyes and walked straight to the cathedral at the back of the village.

Although I don't know why, I listened to what Caiyue said...... When the bard came to the village, he chose the cathedral as his stage, and heard that she was going to sing a song that had never been seen before in this world.

Wood smiled and followed Beatrice.

And at the moment when Wood stepped into the confines of the village......

The statue of the god in the middle of the village of Alam and the temple at the back of the village, two buildings that are very far apart, shook at the same time.

Next second!

The central statue and the statue in the temple glowed with a golden glow, and dust shook down from the statues.

All the statues gradually began to make subtle changes, and the eyes became more shiny, giving people a sense of life; And the originally extremely stiff face was a little rounded, and an inexplicable sense of majesty came from above the statue.

Everyone in Alam Village looked at these changes with a shocked expression, I don't know if it was an illusion or what, no matter which direction they stood, the idol seemed to look down on them, washing them away from physical and mental exhaustion!

"How?"

Beatrice glanced at Wood beside her with disdain, "As a god, do you still need to please the believers?" ”

Those ordinary people didn't feel it so obviously, but Beatrice could see that the change in the idol not only washed the fatigue of these villagers, but also swept away the dark diseases on their bodies one by one!

"I'm not that kind."

Wood smiled slightly: "This is a baptism of creatures within the scope of the Divine Domain after the formation of the Divine Domain, after all, this is my first Divine Domain in this world, and no matter how many temples are established in the future, this effect will not be produced again." ”

"God's Domain?"

Beatrice sneered: "It's really unashamed." ”

"It's not that it's unashamed!"

Wood glanced up at the statue in the air, and a smile flashed in his lazy gaze: "Everything in this divine domain will be under my control, and...... As long as this statue stands here, even if I leave this world, I will be able to see everything here through the eyes of the statue. ”

It's like the statue of the god in the academy city.,No matter where he goes,Wood can see the development of the school city.。

Moreover, the Academy City God Statue is not only the foundation of Wood's godhood, but also the first god domain after Wood became a god, and the baptism that took place in this village was ...... but it is done every day and every night; Let the proto-intestinal creatures not dare to approach, suppress the virus in the bodies of all the blocked children, and at the same time, silently strengthen their physical fitness!

Even......

There are many other abilities.

"Can you see it?"

Beatrice repeated Wood's words, snorted coldly and turned her head to look to the side: "After listening to your words, I feel even more disgusting here!" ”

While talking, the two of them had already arrived near the temple.

They were apparently late, the temple was already surrounded by the inhabitants of Alam Village, and for such a small village in the middle of nowhere, the arrival of the Bard was almost as unusual as seeing a giant panda in his own backyard.

Instead of squeezing in, the two stood outside the crowd waiting for the show to begin.

"Introduce myself again, I'm a wandering bard named Liliana!"

A crisp voice came from the front of the temple, quieting the noisy crowd: "All along, I have been walking all over the world alone, compiling stories into songs with the glass thunder in my hand, and then spreading them one by one. ”

"But!"

The girl's high-pitched voice rose at this moment: "What I want to sing to you today is not those well-known stories, but the story of a god who became a god, this story...... Strictly speaking, it's not moving, it's not frenetic, it's not going to be frenetic, it's going to be crazy, it's a god to the main characters in the story!! ”

"That's why I chose this place."

Liliana took a deep breath and looked at the temple behind her: "Maybe it's fate, I never thought that this kind of small village would actually believe in the god in my story, the only god in the world, for the first time!" ”

"This is undoubtedly the most suitable stage!"

After the words fell, the melancholy and dull music gradually sounded, and the music revealed a deep uneasiness!

The music that is deeply rooted in people's hearts seems to pull everyone to another world, and feel the imitation of the first arrival of the gods in that story.

In the temple, the group of people in the mansion stood there, and everyone had a little surprise on their faces.

They had never imagined that this bard from nowhere was actually telling a story about Wood!

"How did you become a god?"

Rozval laughed strangely: "I didn't expect to hear such an interesting story." ”

Under the music, Liliana slowly told a story to all the listeners.

From hesitation to decisiveness, from cowardice to strength...... From mortals to gods.

It's not so much a story of becoming a god as it is ......

This is the starting point of a transformation!

“…… You humans? You humans! The gods roared and roared, disappointed again and again with humanity......"

The hoarse voice, the heart-piercing voice is vividly embodied in Liliana's 'Heart Protection', which makes that picture more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Wood touched his nose rather in embarrassment, and it was a little embarrassing to stand aside and listen to others sing praises to himself.

And......

Where am I so excited? Your acting skills are too exaggerated, right?

However, Wood didn't realize that Beatrice's gaze had shifted from the stage to him at some point.

(Instead, I think it's more appropriate to change your word of 'hate' to 'yearning.') )

Although I have heard stories about the cursed child, the narration from myself is far less than this kind of bystander perspective.

At the time, she complained about Wood's choice.

But after hearing what the bard said, she complained a little about who she was at the beginning, in that situation...... Wood's choice, there's nothing wrong with that!

If you continue to let the children who are blocked in the area adjacent to the monsters look at the humans who treat them like demons with longing eyes, and continue to observe humans with innocent and curious eyes, in order to blend in...... The end result is undoubtedly self-defeating.

Just like Wood said.

The more times you are disappointed, the more you will turn into despair!

(If you never wait for that person, what choice will you make in the end?) )

This sentence was like a repeater, constantly ringing in Beatrice's mind, making Beatrice ask herself over and over again.

In the end, the answer was the one that had already been decided.

Tired!

Four hundred years is too long.

The superposition of disappointment again and again has long been into despair.

The choice she made was just as Wood said......

- Death!

Escape from this cage that has lasted for 400 years by death.

(Your situation...... It can be said that it is countless times better than them, but it can also be said that it is countless times worse. )

Betty has a choice, but Betty has to choose...... Ending with this doomed pact was the salvation she had always wanted.

…… clearly

That's how it should be......

(Forget about 'that person' and don't have hope that anyone will be 'that person', including me; you see me as a strange passer-by in your life, and you will not be disappointed if you cut out all hope.) )

If... If you leave the expected 'person' behind, you really won't be disappointed?

Maybe, maybe not.

(Loneliness is such a thing, just get used to it!) )

"Wood!"

Beatrice called softly.

"Huh?"

Wood turned his head and glanced at Beatrice in some surprise, it was really strange that such a soft tone came from Beatrice's mouth.

"What? Did you take the wrong medicine when you came out? Such a delicate tone is not suitable for you at all, it feels strange and scary, you see my goosebumps are rising. ”

“……”

Beatrice's little face darkened, and the question that had reached her mouth was swallowed back at once.

This bastard scum!!

Taking a deep breath, Beatrice calmed down her desire to fight the bastard and asked, "Do you really think ...... Is it okay to get used to being lonely? ”

"Of course!"

Wood nodded without hesitation, causing a look of annoyance on Beatrice's face, which even she didn't know where it came from.

"But ......"

Wood paused, shook his head and said: "That's in the case of never getting rid of loneliness, once some things have been experienced, it seems to be a very difficult thing to get used to loneliness again." ”

Beatrice was stunned for a moment, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily hooked up a touch of arc.

"Is that so?"

"Probably."

Wood scratched his gray hair and said lazily, "I asked myself this question when I left here the other day to go to the town of Uao-Uo. ”

"It's obviously a life I've always looked forward to, a carefree life for a person, and I don't have in-depth communication with anyone; But I don't know why I feel bored to the extreme, boring and boring, even if I have been living a similar life. ”

Wood smiled and said, "I was looking out the window and looking in the direction we're in right now, and it turned out ...... The reason why I feel bored and boring is because I don't know why, I have started to get tired of living alone. ”

"At that time, I was thinking, even if it was just to stay quietly and read a book together, fight for dessert every day, talk about the past, and discuss the plot of the book...... And so on, and so on, all of them are far more interesting than being alone, and even ...... It's easier than being alone! ”

Beatrice looked at Wood with a stunned expression, listening to his unabashed narration, and the trace of annoyance in her heart was overjoyed... Or look forward to it.

"Is that so...... After saying this, I suddenly came to my senses. ”

A big smile appeared on Wood's face: "I still don't want to fit in with the big group, but I don't know when I started, I want to be able to fit in to make myself fully trusted, let go of all my guards, and make myself feel happy...... In short, it is a small group that can prove that 'I am alive', even if it is only me and you in that group! ”

"Huh? Ha...... You... You ......"

Beatrice's face changed, and she hurriedly looked around, and when she found that everyone else was immersed in the song and didn't notice the two of them, she glared at Wood with an annoyed expression: "You guy... When, in front of so many people, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? ”

"Huh?"

Wood looked at Beatrice, whose little face was flushed with anger, and couldn't understand which of his words angered Beatrice.

"I'll just give you an example, why are you reacting so much?"

"......" Beatrice.

For some reason, she suddenly felt more annoyed.

"To use a phrase I once heard from a ten-year-old girl: I want to live, even if I put aside survival, I want to try what life is like."

The corners of Wood's mouth hooked: "However, I am a very greedy person, so I will only pursue life without putting aside my survival!" ”

"Is that so?"

"Well, that's right!" Wood nodded.

I don't know when the song has ushered in a climax, and the melodious singing voice is conveyed to all directions.

“…… It's up to you, not me......"

Wood touched his chin, if he hadn't heard this, he would have almost forgotten the old man called 'Sleeping God', if it weren't for him, he might not be able to make it to this day.

"Is your throne inherited?"

Beatrice on the side asked with some curiosity.

"Hmmm! It's a forgotten god who talks about bullshit and gives me all of his own, and the price is just for me to send a flower on his behalf. Wood shrugged: "I'm grateful to him, but that kind of arrangement that seems like fate still makes me feel quite uneasy." ”

"Betty doesn't think it's fate."

Beatrice said with a somewhat complicated expression: "Fate is the causal relationship between people, like an invisible silk thread connected together; It seems to you that this line was drawn by fate, but in Betty's opinion, it is the result of your own efforts! ”

"The gods, who were already on the verge of dissipation, miraculously existed when you came, until they met you. It's not so much fate as Betty feels more like ...... Millions of faiths ask for a fate, just to let that God wait for you to come! ”

Wood was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "In your opinion, is that so?" ”

"Well, Betty feels like this!"
