Chapter 12: Right Behavior
Remain fresh in one's memory.
In that dream, almost every fragment, Shuer remembers clearly.
It was clear from the dreamer that he had broken the ritual, which had led to the death of a large number of clergy, and had destroyed Pavatiga's last hope, so that they were at war with each other. Not only that, but it seemed that he was preparing some other plan, but unfortunately, before he could complete it, he was defeated by the coalition forces of all the churches, and he died on the spot, ......
Whether it is his hometown or Pavatiga, there are countless rituals, but Shur can be sure that there is no known ritual that requires the participation of almost two-thirds of Parvatiga's high-ranking priests, and there are no rituals that once destroyed, most of the participants will die, such rituals are theoretically non-existent.
The first and only thing he thought of was the ritual proposed by Lord Ofregen and approved by the gods.
The ritual of appeasing the god of creation and ending the approaching end of the world through the circle researched by the gods is only eligible and requires the participation of many clerics, and may affect their lives.
The problem is that at the time of that dream, he didn't know anything about the ritual, and it could even be said that it was likely that even Ferrus of the Flame Church himself didn't know, and that Shure didn't know that the end of the world was approaching, which were clues that he gradually grasped later.
Dreams are a continuation of reality, as people often think, so it is almost impossible for intelligent beings to dream about things that they have no concept of, let alone dreams that are so clear and real. Therefore, since I didn't know that the hungry information appeared in the dream, the only explanation was that it was not a simple dream.
Of course, it didn't matter, whether it was a dream, a prophecy, an occasional possibility of the future, or even a message that I didn't know which god had shoehorned in, it didn't matter, it didn't affect Shuer's plans.
"But......" Shure shook his head with a wry smile, "I stopped it, and I made a new plan." ”
That's the crux of the matter.
Shure is actually a very confident person, even to the point of conceit, he absolutely believes in himself, not by believing that his thoughts must be correct, but by ...... Believe that you must be normal.
He thinks he's a logical person who wouldn't cause damage for no reason, and since he wants to stop the ritual at all costs, there must be reasons why he has to, for example...... There was something wrong with the ritual, or it shouldn't have happened at all, and he couldn't find any reason to explain what he was doing in his dream.
So when he first learned about the ritual of the Lord of Flames in the Lion City, he realized that maybe this was the one that appeared in the dream. Ritual', although in his opinion, this plan is led by Lord Ofregen on the surface, but behind it is a plan controlled by the two masters of knowledge and wisdom, although it cannot fundamentally solve the disaster, but for the goal of alleviating the disaster period, it is actually very feasible, and the success rate is not low, it does not seem to be a hidden danger at all, otherwise the wise gods will not unanimously approve of this plan, but because of that dream, he began to suspect that something was wrong with this plan, and he would destroy it himself, and only then would he find a new solution. So since then, although he has not talked to anyone, he has always believed in his heart that this plan should not be carried out.
Yes, it should never be held.
He could feel his emotions in the dream, and he had no malice to destroy the world, but he really thought about the world and really wanted to save Pavatiga. He could even feel the last moment, the apologies of the goddess for Lisa, the pity for those who ruined his plans, and the lingering regret.
The feeling in the dream cannot be faked, and if he does it, it means that there must be a problem.
But what is the problem? I don't know, Shul can't think of it at all. He had scrutinized Lord Ofregan's rituals on all levels, but he had never found a flaw. If it were someone else, he might have to wonder if he had made a mistake, but Shuer's self-confidence told him that since he didn't think it was feasible in the dream, it must not be feasible, and there must be another solution, the one he planned to carry out later.
What is the new solution? I still don't know, but what we have to fight is the end of the world, where there will be so many so-called solutions, and even if there is, it is impossible to find them casually.
Therefore, Shuer has no concept of the two most critical factors, and this sense of powerlessness makes Shuer more and more irritable. The answers to these two questions must be found out in advance, otherwise...... Maybe the tragedy will actually happen.
But it's easier said than done to find the answer, and it's not going to wait until now, so even now, even if he can sit back and wait for a ritual to appease the soon-to-awake creator god, and don't have to take any more risks, Shure is still unwilling to let go of any possible clues, such as cooperation with Lord Kaeya.
So, this is the only option in desperation. Shul emptied his glass, feeling the burning and irritating of the alcohol as it flowed through his esophagus, "But I'm not an idiot who kills myself, and it's not something that a person like me can do, and if I dare to go, I'm sure and I must come back." Oh, don't forget that I'm looking for answers, not suicide, and even if I find the answers, it only makes sense to come back alive. So, there's no need for you to be so nervous, if you really want to be nervous, you should wait until you're sure I can't come back. ”
"Well, none of that really matters. With a strange smile on the corner of Lin Jing's mouth, he refilled the wine glass for Xiu'er, "I just want to know, what did I do in your dream?"
"Heh......" Xiu'er didn't see Lin Jing's smile, slowly swallowed the liquor in the cup, and subconsciously stroked his chest, as if he could still feel the pain of the wound faintly, "I didn't do anything, I just did something I felt was right to defend my beliefs." ”
Yes, even in their dreams, Shur never blamed them, they were all just exploring the way to save the world, and there was no one right or wrong.
"I see, it does seem like something I can do. Moriah tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly showed a Lin Jing-style smile, "Is it like what I am doing now." ”
"Huh?" Shul turned his head to stare at Moria, "What did you do?"
"Hey, hey. ”
"Not true. Smacking his lips, there seemed to be a strange smell, "You added something to that glass of wine just now." ”
"Hey, hey. ”
