Chapter 120: Sweet Dreams
As soon as the green savage creatures burst into the temple, they lunged at the priests, devouring the last humans in the city.
In the face of the brutal creatures, those priests neither resisted nor shouted, but repeated over and over again, God will forgive you......
And so it was until death.
In the process, Evan only saved the little girl who was knocked unconscious, and then let it go, leaving the priests torn to shreds by the savage creatures.
He could feel that the compassion of these people was real, that the all-encompassing love of these people was real, and that in a way, they did match their words with their deeds.
It's not the kind of who is generous to others.
They are the true Virgins.
In this case, there is no need to care about them, after all, they are all voluntary.
"What a strange world. β
Evan shook his head, glanced at the unconscious little girl in his arms, and left the palace, which was gradually overwhelmed by the smell of blood.
It was indeed surprising that these priests were able to be tolerant of their perpetrators to such an extent.
He became more and more curious about the human civilization in this world.
One-one-one-one-one-one
San Bieta belongs to the Free City, Ciudad Orbis.
Centered around Santa Bieta, on the banks of the Orbis River, on the edge of the Great Northern Plains and bordered by towering white-stone hills, the city has endured 1,200 years of glory.
Airships of different colors fly through the skies of the modern city, passing between the skyscrapers.
At this moment, if you look down from above, there is no edge in sight of this huge city, and those 30-meter-long airships are as small as a paramecium.
......
At five o'clock in the morning, the sky was twilight, and the titanium-black building of Soundnest Heavy Industry stood under the hazy sky.
Located in the heart of Orbis City, the building is bustling with fashionably dressed and upper-class people during the day, the scent of fresh flowers and plants in the air, and the sound of high heels hitting the marble floor dominates the rhythm.
And directly opposite this bustling area is the city's free zone.
The so-called free zone is a closed community that has been carved out and specially provided for the orcs to live.
The Orcs can travel freely between the free zone and the city, but it is absolutely impossible for humans to enter the Orc community, in order to respect the living traditions of the Orcs. Violators not only have to bear the risk of being attacked by the orcs, but also suffer the accountability of the judiciary and the spurning and despise of everyone.
Standing in front of the door of the Sound Nest Heavy Industries, looking out towards the Free Zone, you can see all the green-skinned orcs of all sizes, human girls who are violating under the sun.
On the other side of the cordon, the sheriffs who maintain order talk and laugh and turn a blind eye to thisβbecause the girls are voluntary, they are volunteers who come to the door to help the orcs solve their physical needs for the sake of urban security, and they are angels who maintain the friendship between the two races.
β......β
At the zebra crossing at the crossroads, Lina stood in place, trying to ignore the filth of the free zone, waiting for the sheriff's instructions.
Just then, she saw a young couple pushing a stroller, smiling across the road.
The man is tall and handsome, and the woman is white-skinned and beautiful, and she looks like a pair of beautiful people who envy others.
But in the stroller in their hands, there was clearly a green-skinned orc cub, which seemed to be well cared for and very robust.
"Ridiculous upper-class people. β
Lina didn't have any expression on her face, and sighed silently, the bitterness in her heart getting stronger and stronger.
Recently, in order to further demonstrate the spirit of fraternity, the upper echelons of Santa Bieta have set off a trend of surrogacy of orced cubs. The so-called surrogate cub is to let the mother accept the seeds of the beast family, and then use her own body to raise the cubs. The more cubs are bred, the higher their spiritual realm is, and the more respected such a family will be.
Lina has seen a lot of such couples along the way, and she has shamelessly vented her depression in her heart, and she just wants to see the teacher soon.
Just as the sheriff called to stop the vehicle and signaled the pedestrians to return together, a three-meter-tall beast suddenly crossed the cordon, rushed to the side of the husband and wife just now, and grabbed his wife's arm.
"Ahh
The wife screamed uncontrollably when she was frightened, and then, as if she realized something, she quickly covered her mouth and let the orc drag her towards the free zone.
"Honey!"
The husband subconsciously stepped forward to stop it, but this scene immediately suffered the hostility of everyone around him.
The sheriffs around him, and even the pedestrians, stopped and looked at him with a look of choice.
Seeing this, his wife hurriedly shouted: "I volunteered!"
The husband also put on a smiling face, nodded and bowed to the beast clan, indicating that he had no reluctance.
Seeing the couple say this, everyone put aside their hostility and left, leaving the husband alone to stand silently, and he watched his forced wife snuggle up to the orc and walk to the free zone with great grace...... Then they were surrounded by a group of orcs.
β......β
Lina turned to look at her husband, who had just lost his wife, and felt a hint of pity in her heart, but when she saw the orc cub in the stroller, that little pity in her heart instantly turned into mockery.
After gesturing her middle finger at the man, she looked up at the sign hanging in the most conspicuous part of the city: You must be kind to all living beings as you love your parents.
"There is no salvation in this world. β
Lina sighed and turned around, stepping up the marble staircase of Soundnest Heavy Industries into the newly built building.
One-one-one-one-one-one
Lina walked through the reception hall at the front desk, walked to the elevator at the end of the hidden passage, inserted the code card into the card slot, and with the verification of "drop", the green light turned on, the elevator door opened outward, and she immediately walked into the elevator quickly.
Lina didn't need to press the floor button, because the elevator didn't lead to any other floorβit just slid downward, infinitely, until it reached the teacher's place of residence.
The elevator door opened, and the breath was blowing in her face, as familiar and warm as ever, which reminded Lina of many past events.
But soon she came to her senses, took a deep breath, and stepped into the dark space in front of her.
Two rows of fluorescent lights outline a passage, at the end of which is a metal gate depicting a silver moon ring.
This is the lowest floor of the Sound Nest Building, and people who have never been to this floor would never have thought that there would be such a space in this office building where high-class people come and go.
The underground space seems to have no boundary, and the corridor alone is more than 100 meters wide, and after entering the closed gate, looking around at the surrounding scenery - Lina feels like traveling back in time to a completely different world.
β......β
Lina straightened the placket of her trench coat and walked slowly along the path led by the light, and after passing through the layers of doors, the lights in the space gradually became brighter.
In the end, a fifteen-meter-high mural was in front of her eyes, and the style of the mural did not belong to this world at all, it was an extremely iron-blooded and tough painting style.
There are thirteen demons of different shapes in the painting, arranged in a way that is full of oppression, some of them are majestic and hideous, some are seductive and gorgeous, some are silent and solemn, and some are sacred and solemn...... They were charging forward, preparing to fight some god of immense majesty.
At the front of the mural sits a young man, dressed in dark blue mechanical armor, with his entire face hidden under a purple hood, and a silver sword stand in front of him.
The owner of the Sound Nest Heavy Industries, the overlord of the underworld, Ignis (Ivan's pseudonym).
At this moment, he was dressed like an emperor, and his body exuded a chilling majesty.
"Teacher. Lina sat down on her knees at the bottom of the steps, looking down at her face.
"You've grown up...... That's how tall you were when you left me. Looking at the tall girl kneeling in front of him, Evan felt a sense of accomplishment that Otome had cultivated, and raised his left hand to test a height.
After leaving the temple, he found the more prosperous city, where he founded Soundnest Heavy Industries under the pseudonym Ignis.
On the surface, he is doing business to make money, but secretly he is building the Silent City.
It just so happened that he needed an agent in this world, so he took Lina in and raised her.
Ten years have passed since then, and the construction of Silent City has long been completed, but he has never had a chance to go back. Since Xiaoxi hadn't collected enough data before the Silent City exploded, she still couldn't calculate the coordinates of the Overworld.
In desperation, he could only patiently wait for Xiao Xi to calculate the coordinates of the main world, and at the same time use the underground space of Soundnest Heavy Industry as a base to study the Balance Gem and the Transcendence Gem.
"The teacher hasn't changed at all. Lina said respectfully.
Looking at the man in front of her who saved herself from danger, her heart was full of gratitude and love, and at the same time, she was also full of curiosity about his mysterious origins. But there are so many unknowns in him...... The only thing Lina knows is that her teacher's strength is unfathomable, and even if the magic king personally makes a move, he is definitely not the teacher's opponent.
"Tell me, it's rare for a child to come home once, so he won't just look at me, right?" asked Evan teasingly.
"Ever since she was rescued by her teacher, Lina has been thinking about the question, what happened to our world, and why did I end up like this? Lina raised her head and looked at him with a resolute expression: "I understand now that our civilization is sick and is almost incurable...... So, I want to fix this decaying civilization, but I can't do it alone...... Please help me, teacher. β
"Silly boy, I have my own troubles, I can't directly interfere with the operation of this world. β
Of course, Evan feels sorry for this child who he has raised, and it is also a task for him to rule the world, but what can he do, his action is likely to attract Caroso, and everyone including the planet will be reduced to ashes.
"Lina doesn't dare!"
The ponytail girl immediately fell to her knees and said loudly: "Lina knows that the teacher has a problem, Lina doesn't want the teacher to make a move, Lina just wants to ask the teacher to give me strength!"
After a brief silence, Evan asked, "What are you going to do? Why do you suddenly want power?"
β......β
Lina raised her head, her handsome face contorted to almost deformation, and she gritted her back molars and said:
"Because Santa Bieta has just passed a law that stipulates that all women of working age are required to go to the free zone to serve. And the content of the service is to comfort those beasts living in the human world and meet their physiological needs. At the same time, the high-ranking priests and elites are also preparing to implement an administrative decree that will allow the orcs to raise human orphans who have lost their parents, and humans to adopt orc cubs...... Promote the further integration of the two races to ensure that the spirit of equality and fraternity will live on forever. β
"They are indeed sick, and they are not clear. Evan commented.
"Teacher, I want to change the world!" said the pony-tailed girl firmly.
"......" Ivan closed his eyes and was caught in a dilemma.
If there is no threat from Carosso, of course he is willing to help, after all, he is his adopted daughter. However, the lessons of the past are vivid, and if she is given strength, once she makes a big noise, she may make all these years of dormancy go to waste.
Seeing his expression, Lina was disappointed and remorseful, and asked with some hesitation:
"Did Lina embarrass the teacher?"
β......β
Ivan didn't speak, reaching out and grabbing a long sword from the sword rack in front of him.
The sword is simple and elegant to the extreme, from the scabbard to the hilt, without any ornamentation, when the scabbard is in line with the hilt, and the metal texture is stitched together, looking like a steel heavy sword.
But as Evan drew his sword, the sword reflected light, and the flash rolled like a wave, and its cold light flowed in every corner of the space.
"I can't give you strength. β
Evan's words immediately threw Lina into a precipice, filling her heart with loss and despair: but then a sentence lifted her up from the abyss:
"But I know how to give you power, deep in the abandoned mines of the northern land of Gosgar, there is a golden dragon lurking underground. It is currently dormant and has no power to resist...... You use this sword to pierce its heart and drink the dragon's blood to gain dragon power. β
"Thank you, teacher!" said Lina.
"Lina. Evan looked into her eyes and asked seriously, "You must know that your choice is to be the enemy of all the elites...... Have you figured it out?"
For these people, who are immersed in self-emotion and moral superiority, it doesn't matter if they rob them, it doesn't matter if they violate them, and even kill them, because forgiveness proves their nobility.
Only those who do not let them continue to dream are absolutely unforgivable.
Once Lina takes the initiative to stand up against them, many people who dare to be angry and dare not speak out will probably rise up...... At that time, she will be a thorn in the side of all the establishment.
"Lina thinks very clearly!"
The pony-tailed girl nodded solemnly, and her tone became more sonorous: "Since those who question their decision and oppose the spirit of fraternity, they will be labeled as demons...... Then Lina is going to be a witch from today onward......s! Everyone is dreaming, but Lina doesn't want to dream, so it doesn't matter if she dies. β
"So, let's go. β
Ivan threw the long sword into Lina's hand, closed his eyes, and calmly instructed, "Remember, before slaying the dragon, you must prepare enough sedatives. And also...... Communication with the outside world cannot be cut off, the mine can easily collapse, and someone needs to dig you out when the time comes. β
