Chapter 46: Greed
"Praise the Lord, the will of the Lord is my will. "The Lord has already told me the answer, and of course I won't make a mistake again." ”
"Just by that?"
It was the goddess of water who asked the question, but she was far more than the one who thought so. At least half of the people present were surprised, and the most surprised of them was Moria.
The fawn looked at Shul with very strange eyes, as if he wanted to get to know him again.
She knew Shuer's heart better than anyone else, which is why she was so surprised, she knew very well what kind of person Shul was, he seemed to be a very reliable leader, but in fact he was very distrustful of everything around him. It's hard to believe that such a person would make such an important decision because of Luna-sama's words.
This sentence is enough, a deer once told me, don't look at everyone around you as idiots, they are all partners you can fight side by side. Shuer's eyes didn't move, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It tells me to trust in the abilities of my companions, and to believe that they can keep up with me." This is true of my companions, and even more so of the Lord in whom I believe, and since the Lord has given me instructions, of course I must trust unconditionally. ”
"Maybe you're right. The goddess of water said noncommittally, "Whether the reason is good or not, you have made the right choice and fulfilled my wish." I have to admit that you are doing a great job and I am satisfied. ”
"Thank you. Shul stroked his chest and bowed like a gentleman.
"You've done what you have to do, and it's my turn to carry out my promises. The goddess of water seemed to suddenly lose interest in conversation, and said in a depressed mood, "Did you bring the container?"
"Brought. Kelly didn't have any fear at all, and stood up as usual and walked up to the giant, "I am." ”
"You?" the goddess of water seemed to be taken aback, stared at Kelly for a long time, and said uncertainly, "You're not suitable, right?" ”
"Wait a minute, my lord, I have a question I want to explain beforehand. Stretching out his hand to interrupt Kelly, who was about to speak, Shul asked with a strange smile, "I want to confirm with you that you and Lord Wendy are the lords of the lakes and rivers of Pavatiga, and the one who made a deal with you. What exactly is your agreement with Wendy?"
"She didn't even tell you this?"
"No, she did, but I wanted to ask you for it, because I don't think what Wendy said is quite right, hehe. ”
Shuer's smile was so strange that even his teammates felt chills all over their bodies, and they couldn't help but stab him in the back with strange eyes.
"She entrusted others to help me fulfill my wishes, and in return, I gave her my Godhead. "There's nothing to hide," said the Goddess of Water simply, "She prepared the vessel to carry the Godhead, so I ask you if you have brought the container." However, it is difficult for this creature to directly withstand the impact of the godhead, and once the godhead is forcibly stuffed into her body, I am afraid that even her existence will be directly denied. ”
"Huh?" Kelly was stunned, as if it wasn't quite the same as she had promised.
"Snort. Shure wanted to continue to show seriousness with a straight face, but Kelly's stunned appearance made him really can't help it, and he couldn't suppress his laughter, "Sure enough, Lord Wendy is really ...... Hahahaha. ”
The goddess of water didn't say a word for some reason, just waited silently.
"Nothing, hahaha, nothing, except that Mistress Wendy scared her into the vessel with your godhead and returned to Pavatiga with us, and in the meantime, in order to sustain this world, you will support this projection world with a little divine power in her body until everyone leaves. ”
"What about her?"
"Nature is here and annihilated with the world. ”
"I see. The goddess of water thought for a moment, and her expression softened, "It's funny." ”
"It's really interesting. Shul stood up and patted Kelly on the shoulder, "Congratulations." ”
"Huh, what do you mean, congratulations to me?" you all understand, but I don't understand anything, and Kelly feels like her intelligence is rapidly declining.
"Nothing, congratulations on passing the trial. Shure pointed to the sand behind him, "Go back and sit, I'm sure Master Wendy won't be willing to let the Archbishop Candidate who passes the trial sacrifice at will." ”
Blink, blink, what trial, what archbishop's candidate? Somehow sat back again, Kelly was still confused.
"I think you water gods should find a way to improve the intelligence of believers, forget it, it's useless to talk to you. Shure sighed, obviously disappointed in Kelly's IQ, anyway, in the otherworldly projection, no matter how the gods of Pavatiga would not hear it, he could be very relieved to let it go.
However, it seems that there is a water god in front of him, although it is not a system.
"Ahem, ahem. A few dry coughs disguised his gaffe, and Shur forced his seriousness back, "Let's get down to business, about the reward." Of course, we are not in a position to question the agreement between you and Wendy, but what should you do if the Godhead has entrusted it to us? Without the support of the Godhead, you will soon be unable to support it. ”
"Don't worry, there's enough time for you to go back, and the door to your home is actually very close, right behind you. ”
"No, no, that's not what I mean. Xiu'er had actually felt it a long time ago, since the disappearance of the Great Rift, a few kilometers behind it, there had been a spatial fluctuation unique to the detachment point, it was likely that the goddess of water had dragged it from somewhere after getting free, "My question is completely literal, you will soon disappear with this world." ”
"Hmm. ”
"But aren't you really going to go with us?" Shure asked, "Mistress Wendy and Kelly, the dumb priest, and the mission she told her is only a test of her faith, but it does not necessarily represent the Goddess's wishes, and I don't think Mistress Wendy will be unwelcome if you go back with us." ”
"She also invited me directly, but I declined. The goddess of water stroked the sand beside her and said with a gentle face, "My brothers and sisters are here, and they need my company." If I leave them behind, they will be sad. ”
"I'm tired, I have the breath of my brothers and sisters here, and I want to sleep here and be with my brothers and sisters forever. ”
"You live in a kind world, you are a group of very kind people, I understand the kindness, but you don't need to persuade me, I will not leave, this is my home, I will accompany it to the last moment. ”
"I just don't want my comprehension of the laws of the world that I have accumulated over the years to disappear with my annihilation, so I entrust my godhead to your world, I hope it can help your gods, as for my soul, heh......"
Really.
Shur sighed, from the moment he sat down to chat, he sensed that the goddess of water had given up hope of life, and when she asked for outside help, she was ready to die with her brothers and sisters.
So when the three polluted gods planted her and wanted to die with her, she always remained silent, presumably in her heart, being pulled into the big chasm by her brothers and sisters together, it was also a good ending.
"This is your choice, I am not in a position to comment on it, and I do not intend to stop it. Of course, even if you want to stop it, you don't have the ability. Biting his lip and thinking for a while, Shuer said slowly, "However, the fragments of your brother and sister's godhead are also in your body, what are you going to do with them?"
"Are the people of your world so greedy?" Originally, the goddess of water had a very good impression of Shu'er, but as soon as Shu'er's question came out, her impression plummeted, "Isn't it enough to get my full godhead?"
"Be calm, think intellectually, don't think emotionally. Shur said without backing down, "Think about it yourself, you don't want your comprehension to dissipate with you, if they still have consciousness, will they be willing?"
The goddess of water was speechless, indeed, she didn't want to, and of course her brothers and sisters wouldn't either.
"You see, you get it, that's why I'm asking this question. Shuer seemed to be completely thinking about the other party, "I have an opinion, you can also hand over the fragments of the godhead of those three to us, and we will help you find a way to find a suitable person for the three of them." In this way, some of the experience and understanding of those three can be passed on, and you can do a little more for your brothers and sisters, and you will not lose anything, it will be a waste to keep them. ”
"Yes, I admit it, we can get additional benefits if it gets done, but so what? It's a win-win, the result of rational thinking, and it has nothing to do with greed. ”
The goddess of water found that she could not refute it, and what Shur said was indeed very reasonable, although it was obvious that she wanted to get a little more benefit, but the reason was high-sounding enough that it was difficult to find a reason to refuse.
"Well, I confess, you're right, and I'm tempted. The goddess of water had no intention of lying, and said very honestly, "But you don't understand, it's not that I don't want to, but that your idea can't be realized at all." ”
"It stands to reason that you have the mark of a god on your body, and you must also be a close servant of a god, so you should be very clear that when different godhead fragments are put together, the energy in the godhead fragments will clash violently, which will only induce devastating disasters. ”
"Now the four Godheads exist in my body at the same time because there is my soul reconciling their conflict, and once I put the fragments into your container and lose my harmony, it will not take a few seconds for a violent explosion to occur. ”
"So, your hopes will only be disappointed, which is simply not possible. ”
