Chapter 56: The Divine Master
Hearing the last sentence, Shen Yi finally understood what the girl in white meant.
She was actually trying to persuade herself to revolt.
But yes, for her, how could the existence of those regional rebellions be more harmful to the Supreme Council than a real large-scale rebellion?
Shen Yi smiled: "It turns out that you are not here for Lin Yueru at all, you are here for me." β
"You've been one of my targets for a long time. The girl did not deny: "You are strategic, and these plot characters are just tactical means." Precisely, if you take my advice, then all these people I have gathered will be of your service...... You've seen their power. β
Shen Yi remembered the scene when Serena went on a rampage when she rescued Ralph.
He nodded, "Yes, I know their power. So, the adventurers are the rebel leaders you have chosen, and the bug characters are just weapons to break the rules and attack the order, and we are the ones with the weapons?"
"Yes, you are one of the candidates, and you are my favourite at the moment. Unfortunately, your will to resist is not strong, and in your mind, the Supreme Council is still a member of the representative order, which makes me have to risk telling you in advance about the true face of the Supreme Council. β
"At what risk?"
"Lose your risk. The Supreme Council acts in the name of its master, and they will not accept that anyone will know their true colors without being tested, and most of those who have left the city to become guardians do not know the true face of the Supreme Council. If let them know that you have discovered their secret, they will not hesitate to erase you, at all costs. So, to tell you all this, it's a big risk. But otherwise, you won't be on my side. β
Shen Yi interrupted her impatiently: "Even if this is the case, I may not be on your side. Yes, I hate them very much, seeking power and usurping thrones, using the name of gods, forcibly tying others to death, but so what? The relationship between people is originally a struggle between each other, and whether it is the Quarez people or the humans themselves stepping on our heads cannot change the fait accompli. I'm not the kind of shameless bandit who would rather be a foreign slave than a domestic slave, although I don't want to be a slave, but I won't cry because the foreign master suddenly becomes the master of the house and can't accept it, and I don't feel that being an alien dog is superior to a human dog, although I do hate the humans in the Supreme Council a little more, but that's because they let me down, after all, I used to have expectations for those warriors who will always resist tyranny/politics. Now that the heroic rebels have become the defenders of tyranny, of course I feel uncomfortable, and there is the fact that they have deceived us, but this hatred has nothing to do with the blood of the master. So even if I want to resist, it will not be because I can't accept human dominance. In fact, if I could, I'd rather be human. β
"But now you have a chance not to be a minion. β
"And then?" Shen Yi asked rhetorically.
"You can go back to Earth and live the life you want. With your strength, you can live on earth for thousands of years and live the most luxurious life. β
"Then why doesn't the Supreme Council go back?"
The girl couldn't answer.
Shen Yi said again: "Also, what if you can return to Earth? Thousands of superhumans with superpowers have returned to Earth, but they don't have the responsibility and consciousness that superhumans should have, and they just want to live a luxurious life, and it will be thousands of years...... Hehe, that's not necessarily good for the planet. β
"I always thought you were dreaming of coming back to Earth. β
"I do have a vision, but that's why I see what kind of disaster will happen if we go back...... That doesn't require too much IQ. Because of this, the Supreme Council's failure to return to Earth is a good thing for Earth, and the damage is nothing compared to the kidnapping of humanity that they have done. And as I said, Bloody City is a brutal place, but it's not without its appeal. People hate it because adventurers don't come voluntarily with permission. But if the city is open to recruitment, believe me, with the existing conditions of the bloody city, there will be a large number of humans who will voluntarily enter this world. So, some things are just wrong methods, but they don't necessarily have to exist. β
"If you overthrow them, you can change their wrong ways. β
Shen Yi shook his head: "I don't think that the person who can become the leader of the Supreme Council will be so stupid that they can't even understand this kind of thing, so there must be some reason why they can't do this, and I won't be naΓ―ve to think that if it were me, I would definitely be able to do better than them." β
"So you're still rejecting me?"
"Nope. Contrary to the expectation of the girl in white, Shen Yi denied it again: "I'm just saying that the current Supreme Council has not yet reached the point where I have risked my life to resist." I've learned a lot of things these days, I used to think that the city was on the evil side, and then I thought you were on the evil side, and now the camp between good and evil has switched again, and I can't figure out who is true and who is false, and I won't easily stand in line until I get the final answer. So I'm not your pawn, but I won't fight you either. β
"Then what do you mean ......"
"I will choose to complete the final mission, enter the Tower of Babel, and meet the Supreme Council, but not to overthrow them, but to find the final answer. What my decision is, it should be the result of the final answer being revealed. β
"I can't believe you, then?"
Shen Yi asked rhetorically: "If you insist that you are righteous, why worry about me?"
The girl tilted her head: "Strange logic, I don't like it, but I don't know how to refute it." β
"That's because you're not really human yet. Shen Yi smiled: "I can see that you have improved a lot recently, but there are some things that you still can't understand." β
"So...... Can you help me understand?" the girl said suddenly.
This time it was Shen Yi's turn to be stunned: "What did you say?"
"Help me understand. The girl repeated, "I need some pointers." β
Are you kidding.
You're a god!
Well, even if you are not a god, but you are inextricably linked to God, maybe it is his doppelganger, reincarnation, sustenance of consciousness, God's endorsement or whatever messy relationship, in short, you let me be a mortal to guide you as a god?
But looking at the girl's clear eyes, Shen Yi opened his mouth, but finally said gloomily: "Why me? Don't you have many candidates?"
"The criterion for selecting candidates is strength, and the criterion for selecting a divine teacher is mind. Few people are better at this than you. Perhaps, but not one of the candidates. β
"This ......" Shen Yi stammered a little: "I...... I'm not very good at being a teacher. β
"You just have to let me follow you and see what you do with those things. β
"If that's the case, haven't you always done it?"
"Sometimes I need some answers. β
"Then you can ask me directly, but you don't have to show up, I mean...... That would scare a lot of people. β
"I can accept that. β
"So...... If you promise not to cause me some trouble, I'm okay with that. β
The girl looked at Shen Yi very strangely: "I thought you would take the opportunity to make some requests." β
"Well, I am indeed such a person, and lo and behold, you have already defined the character of the person and predicted the behavior of the other person. But I'll teach you the first thing now: human personality is changeable, and sometimes we will do things that may not be in line with our personality. β
"Why?"
"Because people are not programs, human behavior is usually emotional and rational. Reason is subordinated to some of man's guiding ideology, which varies according to individual principles. Sensibility is different, it follows intuition and instinct, changes according to different needs, and to some extent even willfulness...... You only have reason, not emotion, and that is the biggest difference between you and us. β
"Understood. Then, as a reward for helping me, this time Lin Yueru's problem, I will help you solve it. β
She didn't need Shen Yi to speak, she took this matter by herself.
Shen Yi didn't know how she would solve it, but it seemed that she couldn't do what she promised.
With this, the girl in white had stepped back, step by step, into the depths of darkness, leaving only a pair of bright eyes, which shone faintly in the darkness until they finally faded.
But it was Shen Yi who knew that she didn't really leave, but had been around here all along.
From now on, as long as he uses communication, he can contact her at any time.
What a ...... Strange, weird and indescribable feeling.
Of course, Shen Yi knew that this was also a very risky thing, but just as he would not be unable to accept the thunderstorm just because the Supreme Council was a human being, he would not back down because of the danger that the girl in white might bring.
From this point of view, the girl in white chose him correctly.
When he left, Shen Yi's mind was still a little muddy.
Today's conversation has shocked him more than anything before!
Many mysteries that were once unsolvable have finally been solved, some new puzzles have been born, and some doubts have not been answered......
For example, what is the relationship between the girl in white and the true God?
For example, what are the fortuitous conditions for the revival of true God's consciousness?
For example, what is the origin of this space?
Some may have answers, others may never!
Walking all the way, Shen Yi returned to Shangshu Mansion.
Zhao Ling'er rushed out, threw herself into his arms and said, "Sister Yueru is sick." β
She looked at Shen Yi's eyes, which were already full of tears.
Shen Yi stroked Zhao Ling'er's soft cheeks and said softly: "Don't worry, it's just a small problem, she will get better soon." β
Zhao Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, snuggled up in Shen Yi's arms again, and refused to let go.
Looking at the little girl's attachment, Shen Yi suddenly felt that life was like a roller coaster, always shuttling between the clouds and reality. If the contact with the girl in white is the revelation of the depths of the clouds, then Zhao Linger is a homely girl in reality, no matter how you imagine the future, how strange the mountain top, life is still the mainstream forever.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "I'll play with you and Yueru for another day tomorrow, okay?"
This time, he really wanted to accompany Ling'er and them to visit the capital.
