Chapter 24: Good and Evil
On the edge of the poisonous lake in the Gangze Heights, a bug began the arduous task of digging a pit, and the bug who only complained did not know that the pit it it dug would become a turning point in the history of the Dawn Continent.
Apib was very curious about Li Xun's arrangement: "You actually want to use this method to take out the holy weapon?"
Li Xun shrugged: "I also know that this method is clumsy, but I have no other way." ”
In order to ensure that the holy artifact could be taken out smoothly, Li Xun tried to throw a stone into the water to estimate the depth. Of course, the water of the poisonous lake is not certain from ordinary water, and the stones will be corroded, so Li Xun can only conclude that the water depth is more than 100 meters.
The drainage tunnel must be dug as deep as possible to avoid endless water flow, otherwise it will be troublesome to open another pit at that time. Apib's attitude was an accident, and the six demon god revenants outside the barrier might not have such a good temper. The action can be smaller, and try not to alarm those guys.
It takes about 3 hours to dig a 100-meter-deep tunnel to the edge of the barrier at a small speed. The distance from the barrier to the high ground is also about the same, and in the next half a day, Li Xun will be happy.
Leaning against a tree at random, Li Xun looked at Apib with a curious face, pretending to be mysterious: "Don't be curious, you'll understand when you get it right." ”
A creature as long-lived as Apib is naturally well-informed, but Li Xun's method of judging the depth of the lake is still incomprehensible.
Li Xun refused to go into details, so Apib didn't think much about it, but raised another question: "Have you ever thought about what will happen outside after this water is released? This kind of poison can kill many people with a small drop!"
"You can rest assured that I will dare to do this because I can solve this problem. Li Xun pretended to be mysterious: "You are kind, this is not in line with the legendary image?"
Apib is a symbol of darkness and an enemy of light, and should be a very evil figure, at least on a par with Seth. And the dark snake in front of him may be a little evil, but the word evil is completely incompatible, at most it is a little enchanting.
The word enchanting just appeared in Li Xun's mind, and it was immediately transformed into Apib's expression: "Is it, what is the legendary me?"
Apib doesn't care about other people's opinions at all, she just casually picks up Li Xun's words and shows her charm by the way. While asking, Apib took two steps forward, approached Li Xun's shoulder, and almost whispered, especially intimately: "Do you like the legendary me, or is this me in front of you?"
After being tested by the goddess of nature, Li Xun's willpower is even stronger than before. In the face of Apib's teasing, he only leaned over slightly, and responded calmly: "I'm not sure you'll like those comments, or if we can talk about something else." ”
Everyone doesn't like to listen to bad things about themselves, and God is no exception, let alone a dark god? When a person relays some bad words, his own image will also change in the eyes of the listener, and Li Xun naturally will not do the kind of thing that makes others unhappy and is not good for himself.
Wandering his eyes, Apib chuckled and said, "You are so funny, I didn't spare your life in vain." ”
It seems that Li Xun's life is a blade of grass in her hand at this time, as long as Apibu is willing, she can dispose of it at will, and it is effortless. The fact is also true, in front of a role of this level, Li Xun has no room for struggle at all.
Apib's words should have made people nervous, but the tender eyes made Li Xun nervous, but became more and more relaxed: "Then should I thank you for not killing." ”
This sentence was very unnutritious, but Apib's response was somewhat unusual: "If you can solve Seth, I can give you more favors, guaranteed to be what you need." ”
There was a very strange feeling, Li Xun had seen several powerful gods seemed to be able to see through himself, this strange feeling made Li Xun believe Apib's words, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Do you know what I need?"
After a moment of silence, Appib suddenly became a little serious: "Yes, I know, I know you even better than yourself. ”
Li Xun was very surprised, knowing oneself and knowing what one needs are two different concepts, the latter just sees through himself, but the former is the answer that can only be obtained through long-term observation.
The existence of this level of the Dark Serpent naturally has no need to deceive himself, this is the first time he has met, but the other party says that he understands himself. Even if the other party has a skill or treasure similar to the True Eye, it can't be said to be understood through simple data, right?
Some didn't dare to look directly into Apib's eyes, Li Xun reluctantly smiled: "Then what do you think of me?"
However, saying this kind of marginal topic did not make Li Xun feel calmer, and the doubts in his heart were even thicker, and everything he had experienced recently made people feel very unreal.
Forget the artifact, forget the god, forget the remnant soul of the god, and now he is in a mythical era. For earthlings who have experienced highly developed science and technology, all this is too unbelievable, and even if you see it with your own eyes, it is difficult to accept.
But the most important thing in front of me is to complete the trial, the feeling and the fact can't be confused, if you can't complete the trial, you will die, then you still have the mind to feel.
"Let me think about it, how do you say that?" Apib thought about how to describe Li Xun, and after a little time, he finally thought of something: "Oh, by the way, you are really simple. ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Xun's face suddenly became very exciting: "Are you praising or are you scolding me?" In any case, Li Xun felt that it was difficult for him to have anything to do with the word innocence.
Seeing Li Xun's unnatural expression, Apib was very proud: "You don't understand it yet, but when you find out the truth, you will understand how innocent you are now." ”
It sounds like a parent is teaching a child: "You're still young, and you'll understand when you're older." ”
There was some pretentiousness in these words, but Li Xun didn't ask much, just glanced at Apib intently. The dark snake in the image of the woman in front of him, with bright eyes and bright teeth, fragrant cheeks like snow, can be said to be a sinking fish and a goose in terms of appearance alone.
It is never uncommon for beautiful women to be seen on the wonderful planet of Nohir like the leaves of the Gangze Heights. It's just that this ancestor-level evil god can't get rid of the convention of women's love for beauty, and keeps tidying up his makeup by the water, which makes Li Xun particularly emotional.
After coming back to his senses, Li Xun felt that since Apib loved beauty, he had vanity, and he would definitely like to hear praise. There are still many things to ask her for help in the future, so it is better to do what she likes and build a good relationship: "You are very beautiful, at least this is 108,000 miles away from your terrible image in the legend." ”
Although he said this on purpose, there was nothing against his will, and every sentence was true, which made Li Xun feel that he was an honest and good boy.
Apib did not show any emotion in Li Xun's praise, but became interested in another topic: "One hundred and eight thousand miles? This metaphor is very interesting, like the power of a god in your earth legends. ”
Li Xun was even more stunned: "You even know this, could it be that you have mind reading skills?"
A Nohir god, the only one he has seen on the earth is Li Xun, and even the legend of the earth is known through a sentence. This is beyond the realm of the True Eye, like reading the minds and memories of others directly. If you can really reach this level, there is nothing wrong with saying that you know yourself.
The word "mind reading?" was also a bit new to Apib, but fortunately it was relatively easy to understand, and the answer was quickly given: "No, it's not what you think, I just know it, and I can't read your mind." But because I know everything about you, I know how you think. ”
It's not mind reading, but it sounds even more powerful than mind reading, but how do you know this? Even everyone who doesn't see the earthlings can know Chinese mythology, how can a Nohir god know?
Li Xun thought of a very unbelievable possibility: "Are you omniscient and omnipotent?"
Omniscient and omnipotent, no one can understand the meaning of this better than Li Xun, and just three seconds of foreknowledge allows him to challenge the strongest as a junior ability. Although the final result was that Li Xun fled, after all, he was facing a supreme man.
If the Dark Serpent in front of her can truly be omniscient, then she must be omnipotent!
"Of course, no!" Apib showed a helpless smile, as if he was laughing at himself, and as if he thought Li Xun was a little whimsical.
"I only know what has happened. Or to put it another way, something that happens happens and I know when I want to know. And what hasn't happened yet, I can't see through it, which is the opposite of your ability. As for omnipotence, you can see my current situation, just a prisoner. ”
Li Xun withdrew a hanging heart into his stomach, revealing a relieved expression: "So that's the case, I almost thought you were the dark side of the creation god of Nohir." ”
As if he liked the feeling of chatting with Li Xun very much, Apib always inadvertently showed a charming smile: "Your statement is relatively novel, but it can also be understood in this way." I appeared on this planet at the same time as the legendary creator god, who represents light and I represent darkness, but I am slightly weaker. ”
There is a very interesting situation here, according to Apib, she and the creator god appeared on this planet at the same time, that is to say, this planet is not the work of the creator god, so why is the creator god called the creator god?
Automatically ignored the doubts in Appib's words, because compared to the creation god, Li Xun wanted to know more about Seth's strength: "Actually, there is a question I've always been curious about, the creation god should be the most powerful god, why does Seth have the ability to suppress you, but the creation god can't?"
According to the logic of normal people, there are indeed some unreasonable things in this, at least Li Xun feels incomprehensible, is Seth really powerful to this extent?
Appib thought for a moment and said slowly, "There are two points. First, light and darkness are of the same origin and coexist forever, and the power of the creator god can be absorbed and transformed by me, and it will never be able to kill me. ”
"Seth is different, his strength is close to mine, but not exactly the same. I can't absorb his power, and when he is stronger than me, he can restrain me. ”
This first point has confirmed Li Xun's guess, and the pressure suddenly doubled, an enemy that is stronger than the Creation God is really enough!
"Second, the creator god is only the earliest god, not the most powerful god, otherwise the position of the god-king will not be replaced. The world is always moving forward, and as long as there is no fault, the latecomers will only become stronger. ”
Apib's tone was very serious, which made Li Xun a little uncomfortable, and he smiled reluctantly: "It's really inspiring, do you think I have a chance to surpass Seth?"
Without thinking, Apib replied casually: "Of course you have a chance, so let's live well first." ”
It sounds like a bit of a coping, but Li Xun himself didn't intend to confront a god head-on, but liked this dark snake more and more: "I'm starting to doubt the worldview of the Nohir people, you seem to be really gentle and kind, and very understanding. ”
This Dark Serpent's speaking style and even thinking pattern are very similar to Li Xun's, and it is easy to have a strong resonance between conversations. I don't know if it's because the Dark Serpent knows Li Xun completely, so he deliberately approached him in this way, or if Apib is like this.
However, with an existence of the level of the Dark Serpent, there should be no reason to specifically approach an ability who has just reached the intermediate level. Li Xun felt that even if it was the two artifacts on his body, this dark snake might not be able to look at it.
As if Li Xun said that in addition to his heart, Apib made a pitiful look: "Actually, I just challenged the creation god, since the creation god is righteous, the dark snake will naturally become evil." ”
"It turns out that this is what is good and evil. ”
"Yes, that's good and evil. ”
