Chapter 41: Baal's Tricks

Dabao easily defeated the revenge knight, and there was a hint of heaviness in his heart. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this professional who entered the World Stone, it stands to reason that he should be better equipped, more experienced, and stronger, but he didn't expect it to be much better than the professional he had met before who had not passed the test. Some people may think that this revenge knight is not good at fighting against professionals, and is more suitable for fighting monsters, so it makes people feel weak. Actually, it's not, after all, it's a top-level professional, equipment, skills and combat awareness are all top-notch, if you don't even have the strength to fight back, you can only say that something is wrong with one aspect of yourself. Just like this professional, it's obvious that he doesn't have a good sense of fighting, and even with the choice of equipment, there is a problem, and he uses equipment suitable for fighting monsters to fight with the professional, so he seems very weak.

Dabao asked the vengeful knight, "How long has it been since you fought a professional?" ”

The Vengeful Knight looked up and thought for a while, then said uncertainly, "It seems that there has been no one since entering the World Stone." How could anyone who had not entered the World Stone be qualified to let me do it, and the people who cultivated inside were all busy attacking the peak of the ninety-ninth level, and how could they have the kung fu to fight each other. ”

"Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat! You haven't fought for so long, no wonder your fighting consciousness has degenerated to such an unbearable level. Dabao sighed. He continued, "This is the disadvantage of the current way of being tested, and its existence directly reduces the competition of professionals in the World Stone. It has made you invincible heroes from above and made you lose your motivation to move forward. And you kill those stupid monsters all day long, which makes you accustomed to this low-level fighting style, and your combat consciousness is constantly degrading. But you don't know it yourselves, and you think you're getting stronger. If you do reach level ninety-nine and challenge Baal, the death must be ugly. ”

Dabao's words were like a thunderbolt, and the revenge knight was dumbfounded. Dabao was not finished, and continued: "I have long suspected that the human race has gained the upper hand, and Baal has tried his best to create monsters to attack the city, in order to obtain the holy relics of the barbarians from the hands of the humans, and for this reason he did not hesitate to sign a contract with the human traitors. Could it be that this Baal surrendered his identity in order to come out of the World Stone? No! Absolutely not, there must be a conspiracy in this. ”

"I didn't know until I saw you what Baal's ruse was? It is not to come out of the World Stone, but to let humanity be tested after obtaining the holy relics is always like this alone! In the life of a professional, together with the final test, there are four hurdles to break through, and each of them is a watershed. This watershed is not a breakthrough or a failure to break through, but a difference after a breakthrough. Some people are satisfied, while others are not. Those who are satisfied stop, and those who are not satisfied continue to move forward. Every time a barrier is breached, there are some satisfied people who stop. ”

"And the Stone that eventually enters the World Stone is unique to each other, and no one is qualified to enter with him anymore. Since then, this final winner has embarked on a lonely path without competition. If these people challenge Baal immediately, they may pose a huge threat to Baal, but no one alone is willing to challenge Baal, so they will continue to cultivate in the World Stone. Due to the small number of stone monsters in the world and the unlimited resources for cultivation, there is almost no competition, and the attention of the professionals is focused on fighting monsters. When you finally reach level ninety-nine, when you feel that you are already the strongest, and dare to challenge Baal, you will find that you have become weaker. I think Barr must have found out about that."

Dabao told his guess in one breath, and the revenge knight was completely speechless after hearing it. Dabao was talking about what he had personally experienced, and it suddenly made the experience in the depths of his mind churn. That's right, it fits perfectly, and Dabao seems to have scanned his brain to one side. Beads of sweat began to drip down his face, and from the moment he accepted the inheritance, he was determined to become a hero, kill Baal, and save humanity. But as he went by, there were fewer and fewer people who fought with him before, and after he became a hero, he finally abandoned his team and truly became a person fighting.

The Vengeance Knight asked in a trembling voice, "Are you saying that Balbar's ruse is to make all the professionals who enter the World Stone become Lone Rangers?" ”

Dabao replied: "Now that you have passed the test, you should understand what the test means: the importance of sticking to the right way of fighting and teamwork. But how did you get into the World Stone? Would you give up the opportunity to cultivate inside and continue to be with your comrades outside? You won't! Your height is already higher than others, how can you look at others as equals, you will only look down on others to get your own satisfaction. It is because of this sense of satisfaction that you nobles will hope from the bottom of your heart that the conditions for being tested are as harsh as possible, and that the fewer people who can enter the World Stone as possible, and even want to take the right to be tested into your own hands. And your idea is exactly what Baal wants. ”

The Vengeful Knight shook his head and retorted: "It is impossible for people to be without shortcomings, even if I become arrogant, but my virtue has not been lost, how can I do the same thing as the Balkans." ”

"You're right, people are indeed made up of strengths and weaknesses. But the biggest difference between humans and demons is that humans believe more in their own strengths, while demons believe in their own shortcomings. Just like if you are a brave person, courage is not necessarily reliable when others are in danger, and you will hesitate or even give up. And a cowardly person will not hesitate to turn around and run away. This is how the disadvantages are often more reliable than the advantages of people. Dabao explained.

The Vengeful Knight questioned again: "It's still not right, bravery is always better than cowardice, isn't it?" ”

Dabao replied: "Of course, but this good does not necessarily lead to a good result. Again, if that person is not only courageous but also has money like dung, and the other person is not only cowardly but also greedy for money. If there is a lot to be gained by saving people, then I believe that the cowardly and greedy person will be more active by the other person. Therefore, if you look at it personally, the advantages are always better than the disadvantages, but this world is a complex society, and people's shortcomings are often easier to use than advantages, and one is accurate, so the disadvantages are more reliable than the advantages. ”

"How many people have succeeded because of their own strengths, and fallen into the abyss because of their shortcomings. I have long said that the strengths and weaknesses of people are always relative. Courage cannot completely eliminate cowardice, and wisdom can also appear foolish. It's just that because of the difference in the environment, a certain aspect is magnified. Convinced of this, Barr devised a ruse, which was to create a place suitable for the fermentation of human shortcomings. Baal creates these seemingly powerful, but fatally flawed monsters for you to cultivate, in order to cultivate your inertia. Can easily kill monsters, who would choose complex things. Professionals are becoming more and more accustomed to simple battles, and the former fighting consciousness is becoming more and more degraded, and the original elite of the human race has gradually become mediocre and unaware of it. And this false strength makes the professionals even more arrogant and arrogant, and completely abandons the team spirit. ”

"For countless years, there have been quite a few heroes who have entered the World Stone and reached level ninety-nine to challenge Baal, right? Have they all failed? Does everyone think Barr is too powerful? If the answer is yes, then it proves that Barr's ruse has succeeded. The most effective thing against Baal that we have been trying to cultivate from the beginning has been unconsciously eliminated by Baal. It's not that Barr has become strong, it's that you have become weak. ”

Dabao elaborated on his thoughts, and the revenge knight completely understood: it turned out that he was no longer a hero, but a moth harmful to humans. If you don't run into Dabao, but to challenge Barr, you will die in vain.

He said to Dabao sincerely: "You are doing the right thing, I will not tell others about today's events, and I will spread your opinions." You're right, I'm not doing all this because I understand that what the nobles are doing is wrong, but because I'm afraid, afraid that the fear, hatred, pain, and arrogance that we unconsciously generate will become the nourishment of hell, and make hell stronger, and one day Baal will really break through the seal and destroy the whole world. In the past, selfishness made me choose to maintain this illusory honor, but now selfishness has made me choose to break this illusion. I'm going to go to my former comrades now and put them to the test together, and we're going to fight together again! ”

With that, the Vengeful Knight decisively opened the scroll of return to the city and returned to Hallogas.

Dabao didn't know if the vengeful knight was telling the truth, but it didn't matter at all. Dabao is really not afraid of him saying it at this time, what Dabao said to him just now was actually to himself. Those words were the truth that Dabao suddenly realized after the battle, and it was not that he had already seen through Baal's tricks. Since Dabao can comprehend it, then other people can also comprehend it, and his own practice of changing the way of testing occupies the righteousness of mankind and occupies the time of heaven, so the previous worries are simply superfluous.

Although Dabao said the disadvantages of exploring the World Stone alone for a long time, he did not hesitate at all, and got into it and began his journey to challenge Bal.

In a corner of the frozen tundra, a team of seven people who had just killed a group of monsters was gathering for a short rest. A female mage sighed and said, "Hey, I'm an ice mage who suffers too much here, if the boss is here, as soon as the judgment aura is opened, I can destroy them all by myself." ”

A straightforward barbarian warrior immediately said, "Bullshit, don't mention that person again, his eyes have been on the top of his head since he entered the World Stone. Seeing that we also liked to ignore it, they also said that we would regroup when we all entered the World Stone. In its current form, I don't know what life I'll be in. ”

"That's it! Say no more. A necromancer who appeared to be the leader interrupted the barbarian. He said: "It's been so long, and what do you mention about him." Although our cultivation speed here is a little slower, we will still be able to catch up with the level sooner or later. ”

At this moment, a figure loomed in the distance, teleporting without stopping. After a while, the figure came to everyone.

The person who appeared was none other than the Vengeful Knight, who had been educated by Dabao, and immediately after he left, he looked for his former teammates. The hard work paid off, and he finally found it. He looked excitedly at his comrades-in-arms who had struggled together for many years, and he was speechless for a while.

The female mage who complained just now was the first to spot the Vengeance Knight, and she exclaimed in surprise, "It's the boss!" What are you doing here? ”

The barbarian warrior's face was happy, but he immediately became cold, and said sarcastically: "Shout, this is not a big hero, how can you have time to come and see us." Look at the equipment on your body, even if you sell us all, you can't make up a piece, you shouldn't be here to show off your wealth. ”

The revenge knight calmed down, bowed deeply to his former comrades, and said sincerely: "I'm not here to show off my wealth, I'm here to apologize to everyone." I entered the World Stone with the help of everyone, but I didn't expect that after I entered, I forgot about Ben and lost myself. If I hadn't been defeated by a low-level professional, I wouldn't have woken up until now! I'm here to find you because someone has changed the way Arret's Top is put to the test, and now you can be tested as a squad, and you can pass the test together so we can team up again. ”

The barbarians thought the Vengeful Knight was sincere, but they didn't believe it. He was suspicious: "Are you really so kind? ”

The revenge knight was ashamed to tell what had just happened between himself and Dabao, and finally said: "Although we are all nobles, if we still only have the main purpose of cultivating for our descendants to gain a long life, the final outcome will definitely be very tragic. If everyone is like this, and it is clear that what they can strive to do must be completed by future generations, then the more and more responsibilities are pushed, and one day our descendants will not be able to bear it and collapse. ”

The team all had their eyes on the necromancer. The necromancer listened to the Vengeance Knight's words, and kept frowning in thought. The last paragraph of the Vengeance Knight finally moved him, and he nodded slightly, "That big boss is right. If we keep cultivating, what can we do even if we gain a long life? I still can't live the life I want to live. Unless we also don't practice and enjoy life after we break through level 60. But that kind of strength is not enough to ensure one's own safety, which is equivalent to entrusting one's life in the hands of others. Sometimes, I really think about being a commoner if I am not a professional. At least half of your life is easy, and you don't have to fight non-stop all your life like a professional.
