Chapter 156: The Path to the Truth
"One last question. β
After much hesitation, even though he still has a deep-seated distrust of Jiasu, the young man still intends to explore the clues about the truth of the world from this girl who has a close connection with the ancestors: "What is the world all about...... Why can you sit idly by and watch the realm of order be swallowed up by the deep night, and watch the fire and civilization gradually weaken and eventually dieβwhat are you going to do?"
The deepest night that envelops the territory of order, blocks intercity communication, and makes civilization decline can be broken by only he, a half-hanger who borrows the power of Lucifer's morning light, and it makes no sense that Jiasu may be helpless for an existence like her that is faintly above the mortal world, even if it cannot be eradicated by the mother of hundreds of millions of black goats, it can be controlled and driven away like the fog of the nameless.
But they did nothing, just sat in the clouds, ignoring the fire of civilization and dying.
Amy Ulysses couldn't understand why they were so indifferent to the world, and couldn't figure out what their purpose was, or how they viewed the flames of order and chaos that had not been extinguished for thousands of years.
Is it like a true god who is looking up to all beings, or is there some kind of suffering that has to sit back and watch?
Ignati once said that the ancestors foresaw the dawn of the dark millennium, wrote the fate of the world and all living beings in the sacred law of Hammurabi, and the people behind the curtain hidden in the net woven by the dice house were the overseers who ensured that the covenants made by the otherworldly beings were carried out.
He wanted to learn the truth about the world from Jiasu, from the mouth of the overseer of the dice house.
"The truth of the worldβ"
In a deliberately long tone, the petite and slightly young girl glanced at him: "It doesn't matter what this kind of thing is, because in the eyes of people from different positions, the truth is not the same, everyone feels that they are right, and only they can save the world, but in fact, they ...... Who knows?"
She let out an icy smirk.
"But I want to know the truth from your mouth," the boy added, after a pause, "even if it's only a partial and partial truth. β
"The truth is absurd like a farce," Jia Su sighed, her dark eyes looking into the distance over where the Glory One was, "There is no point in telling you other than to deepen your suspicions or bring your life down, and if you are really interested, you better find out and verify it yourself." β
"What do you mean...... I can't accept this truth?"
Amy had heard this similar statement several times, Ignatti, a traveler who had returned from the darkness, and Edgar, who had inherited the knowledge of the high priests of the past, also said that it seemed that the truth hidden under the fog of history would really be very cruel, absurd, and subversive.
But then again, what are the three views?
"Pretty much, there is no psychological expectation, and most people will fall into a collapse when they hear the truth - this is a collapse of cognition, and even I don't have a particularly good way. The black-haired and black-eyed girl spread her hands and signaled her powerlessness, "But if you dig out the truth gradually by yourself, it will become relatively easy to accept." β
"I don't have the direction or the means. β
This is the truth, digging up the truth, to put it simply, where to dig it out, and how to dig it? These are all questions. If you don't get guidance, you can only scurry around like a headless fly, and you won't be able to do anything at all.
"I can give you direction, as for the means, I am not some almost omniscient and all-powerful blue tanuki, you can only rely on yourself. β
Kasu continued to say something that no one understood, blue tanuki?
Fortunately, the general meaning of the sentence is not difficult to understand, it's just ...... A little later, without waiting for the young man to answer, she stared at him with dark and bright eyes, and the conversation changed: "But the question is, why should I tell you. β
"What do you need me to do?" Amy's words were very cautious.
"Don't be so suspicious, it's a normal transaction. The girl blinked, then straightened her face, "I need you to enter the Order's headquarters and investigate the 'Heavenly Gate Project'. β
"Project Heaven's Gate?" the unfamiliar words made the boy frown, "What's that?" β
"If I knew, I wouldn't have asked you to investigate. Jiasu said angrily, "What I can be sure of is that the Order is promoting this plan, and there has been a lot of action in all aspects recently, and it is likely that there will be action soon." β
"But I don't know anything about the Order at the moment, not only do I not know where the Order's headquarters are, but I also don't know what kind of identity to use to infiltrate the Order. Amy calmly analyzed the question, "Besides, taking a step back, even if I did infiltrate the Order and learned the details of the plan, how would I convey the information to you?" β
"These are not things you need to think about. The petite girl waved her hand very generously, "I will prepare your identity and help you infiltrate the Order, and I will also prepare the means of contact, and even ...... The direction you're looking for will also be given directly to you as a reward β so just tell me your options. β
Promise...... Or not agree, that's a question.
The young Glory Man fell silent.
He must trust Jiasu more than Duke, but no matter how much trust he has, the relationship between the dice house will always be discounted.
- He needs to think about it, and he must not give an answer as soon as his mind is hot.
Summarize the possible risks and the stakes.
The benefits he received were obvious, a key to the truth of the world - however, given the usual bad style of the dice house, it is necessary to label him as suspicious, and it cannot be said that the attraction to him is not strong, but it is by no means indispensable, it can only be said that it is like an ant scratching his heart, which makes his heart always tickle. It's just that the Order's "Heavenly Gate Project" is very concerned about him, what does "Heavenly Gate" refer to? Could it be...... That door, that door he had to find and open?
As opposed to benefits, risks should not be underestimated, with identity exposure being the most direct risk and potential ...... The fact that he was transferred out of Hemtika - will the Dice House take advantage of his departure from Hemtika to do some less friendly schemes, such as targeting Yulia and then forcing him to make compromises.
Of course, this is only a rough idea, and it is normal to miss or misjudge.
And soβ
Amy replied, and in any case could not be wrong: "Please give me a moment, I need to think about it carefully." β
"I also need to do some preparation on my side. Jiasu was not surprised by this, and was quite businesslike, "But please give me an answer as soon as possible, this deal will not always be valid." β
"I also want to know some details. The young Glory Man saidβa rare word of truth," said the young Gloryman, "I'm actually quite interested in this task. β
"The details, there are no details, the core is to act on the opportunity. Jia Su didn't care about this, this transaction was originally her whim, whether it was killing him through the hands of the Order, or obtaining information about the Order through him, it all depended on his own response and choice, anyway...... In any case, as the publisher of the mission, she will not lose, "It's a very fair deal, I'll show you the way, and you have to take the corresponding risks." β
After thinking about it, out of friendship at the harvest festival, she still gave a trivial hint.
"I can prepare you as a reserve sword-bearer who is about to be baptized and stigmatized, which means that you will take the risk of implanting the stigmata - of course, it may also bring you additional benefits, which no one can say - after that, you will also be acting as a sword-bearer, fighting, encountering danger, if you are ready to accept this deal, be prepared to die. β
"And for the sake of justice, I will give you a little help and will pay you first. β
"As for how you decide, the choice is yours. β
"I see," frankly, the risk can be expected - provided that Jiasu is not withholding key information, but who can say this kind of thing, not to mention that the lessons learned from dealing with the dice house are always reminding him that if he is not afraid to figure it out with the greatest malice, "I will seriously consider it." β
"Looking forward to hearing your affirmative answer. Jiasu's gaze rested on his sword-holding hand, and at this moment the sword of the dawn Lucifer had been returned to the sheath where it was hidden, named "Dark Blood" by the Ulysses clan, "Although I have removed the permission, it is still possible for you to break the seal imposed on it with the flames, so I must advise you not to completely liberate Lucifer, the arrival of Sabu Nicholas, even once, is already too much." β
"Don't worry. Amy gave a promise.
For him, the Sword of Light activated by visitor privileges was sufficient, and mythical creatures from the old worlds that had not yet been opened up could never be everywhere.
"Then it's time to get out of here. The petite girl looked at him with a playful and amusing look, "But I think you need help." β
Need help?
It wasn't until this moment that the boy realized how unusual it was to be able to have a normal conversation before.
Although the great void above the heavenly dome is beginning to be bridged, it will take a considerable amount of time before it is completely repaired, and the sky above Hemtika is still chaotic, time and space are confused to a certain extent, in such an environment, even if he stands in the sky, he will not fall, even if he takes a step forward, he may be regressing, there is no logic at all, there is no reason at all.
Although this chaotic tendency has continued to fade with the passage of time, at this rate, it is not known when he will be able to get out of the current predicament - and even if he does, there is still a big question, that is, how he will survive the fall from the height......
Died from a fall from a height.
It was a very sad thing, and what was even more tragic was that with this sad way of dying, he might have to experience despair in the precursor of death several times.
Soβ
"Please help me. β
Without hesitation, Amy Ulysses took the words of the plea out of her mouth.
