131: Happy Hell
"Jiang Lu, wait a minute, I have something to say to you, don't be in a hurry."
Zhou Baiyu stopped Jiang Lu.
Jiang Lu still responded with a smile:
"Okay, okay, Jiang Xianwu, I'm so happy, hahahaha...... What do you have to say to me? ”
"Let's go to your house first."
"Okay, but I have to get to Lord Io before sunset."
Jiang Lu is always happy.
Earlier, Zhou Baiyu could still see a subtle expression other than laughter on Jiang Lu's face.
But now, he found that there was no more.
Now Jiang Lu looks more energetic and happier, as if immersed in great joy.
But it doesn't have that agility.
It's like losing something forever.
Zhou Baiyu is not in a hurry, it is useless to be anxious, he sympathizes with this girl, but who here is not worthy of sympathy?
What he has to do is find the root of this place.
After coming to Jiang Lu's house, Zhou Baiyu said:
"Jiang Lu, in your life, are there any unhappy things?"
"No, hahahaha...... Why do you ask? Mr. Jiang Xianwu, how can I have a time when I am unhappy hahahaha. ”
Zhou Baiyu actually wanted to stop that damn laughter. But he still said very gently:
"I don't know when I'll see you in the future, Jiang Lu, can I tell you something about me?"
"Of course you can, it's still early, I'm willing to leave time to you, it must be a very happy thing, right?" Jiang Lu responded with a smile.
Zhou Baiyu was wondering, would her face feel sore?
He nodded:
"Yes, it's all very healing and happy."
"I once met a man whose family was very poor and saw no hope, and after being deceived, he strayed into a pyramid scheme. At that time, there was a lecturer named Zhou Baiyu, who gave him hope and told him that it was enough to buy the company's products. ”
"If you buy the company's products, you can make a fortune."
"Later, that person was moved by Zhou Baiyu's lecturer, he really felt hope, and really thought that there was such a way to go in the world, and God didn't force him to a dead end."
"He took the last of his savings and bought a bunch of useless things, but the back ...... I found that these things simply didn't sell. ”
"The so-called world-leading products are just a bunch of garbage that deceives customers."
"He didn't even have the last savings, his wife left him, and all his connections were far away from him because he was selling things so badly."
He was lonely for a while. At last...... chose to jump off the building, and happened to die in front of the lecturer named Zhou Baiyu. ”
Although it was not Zhou Baiyu who deceived that person back then, Zhou Baiyu always regarded the tragedy as his own cause.
It was only then that he understood the disadvantages of giving people false hope.
Wang Shufen and Zhou Zeshui also comforted for a long time, and Zhou Baiyu found a new job to redeem others.
This story, of course, is not a cure.
But Zhou Baiyu's purpose in telling this story is not to relieve the guilt in his heart.
There was always a hint of sadness in his tone.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha...... What a happy story, hahahaha......"
Jiang Lu was still smiling, without a trace of sadness in her eyes. It seems to be a laugh-filled happy story.
Zhou Baiyu later told some more stories.
tells the story of the suicide man he saved, and later committed suicide again because of life.
It tells the story of a girl and his father, surviving in the last days, in order to prevent her mother from being eaten, her father went to the location of the monster, but the girl and her mother were left unprotected and imprisoned in the basement, which is likely to be reduced to rations.
tells the story of a girl's father, a drunkard, who smashed a wine bottle on the girl's forehead and never loved her.
It also tells the story of a young man who shines brightly, but falls into the darkness......
These stories are all called healing stories by Zhou Baiyu.
Some of them did change for the better because of Zhou Baiyu's participation.
But that part, Zhou Baiyu didn't say it.
His oratorial talent is always able to evoke emotions with precision, and he is clearly not telling any happy stories.
But Jiang Lu's response was always only one sentence.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha, this story is so happy."
She seemed to really feel happy. She obviously didn't mean that.
Her laughter was like a vicious mockery, like pointing at the difficulties of others and saying, "Wow, it's funny, so funny, how can the people in the story be a little worse?"
But she's not that kind of person.
From the first glance, Zhou Baiyu knew that Jiang Lu was not a vicious person in his heart.
Just eleven days ago, when Zhou Baiyu danced with this girl, he could still feel the agility in the girl's eyes.
He always remembered the tears that struck the girl as she looked up the stairs.
It was also at this moment that Zhou Baiyu was sure that the girl's emotions would no longer have anything other than happiness.
"Do you think about the staircase?"
"Ladder? Hahahaha, I don't remember, hahahaha......"
Obviously, a very important memory was diluted a little bit in the process of Jiang Lu's constant laughter.
In fact, not long after Jiang Lu came here, she heard a sentence from someone who had not yet gone to Area B:
"If you want to get back what you feel, step up the ladder."
Jiang Lu didn't understand the meaning of that sentence, out of curiosity, she climbed the stairs once, but only took one step...... He fell into great sorrow.
So much so that later, the moment Jiang Lu saw the steps, he would be overflowing with emotions.
Fortunately, the land of joy is a happy country. There is only happiness here.
Everything here is healing.
Near the steps, there is an enchantment, once someone approaches, Rozan in the castle, Polok outside the palace, Io, will get the news, they will be the first to save the person who "went astray" to climb the stairs.
will be the first time, try to make this person feel endless happiness.
It's like Jiang Lu.
Now Jiang Lu looked at the stairs again, and he couldn't remember what the stairs that led to the top and had a huge ancient bell at the end were functional.
All she could do was laugh.
It's like everything in the shell has been hollowed out and filled with joy.
Zhou Baiyu hugged Jiang Lu into his arms:
"I don't know if you have more real feelings, but Jiang Lu, I hope you are truly happy."
"Hahahaha, of course I'm really happy, Jiang Xianwu, thank you, I will always remember you, hahahaha, maybe you stay here, and there will be a day when you enter Area B!"
Zhou Baiyu nodded, let go of Jiang Lu, and asked:
"Did you bring anything with you when you came here?"
"Think about it, hahahaha, it seems that there really is, I haven't used it for a long time." Jiang Lu said with a smile.
She then tossed around the room for a while and pulled out two ceramic cups.
"One is used to hold rice, the other is used to hold water, this is what I used to live before I entered here, hahahaha, I was so happy at that time......"
"At that time, I almost died, the cup was always empty, sometimes I would look at the cup and imagine that it was full of food, hahahahaha, hahahaha, I was so happy......"
Obviously, in the past days, I experienced the fear and despair of survival every day.
Obviously she was already hungry and cold, just like the girl in the fairy tale who saw the illusion in the match.
The cup contained not only food, but also a life she had never had.
But it all seemed to have lost its meaning.
Even his most desperate experiences seem to bring only joy.
Jiang Lu recalled those past events, but kept laughing.
Hahahaha. Hahahaha.
She just laughs like this, not dry laughter, laughter can make people hear joyful emotions, but this non-stop laughing makes her look like a doll showing laughter.
Hahahaha, obviously those sad pasts are not funny at all.
There are also many people who can laugh and talk about those sad memories of the past, as a way to prove their growth and let go of the past.
But obviously, Jiang Lu is not like this.
Zhou Baiyu looked at the cup and found that it was finally possible to be alienated.
The food, the scenery, and all kinds of items on this island are almost impossible to alienate.
But the cup was something that Jiang Lu had before she arrived in the Land of Joy.
The cup has long lost its value here.
However, everyone who has experienced the end of the world will carry something with them and remember the days of suffering.
This also provides an opportunity for Zhou Baiyu's alienation.
"You wait for me a moment." Zhou Baiyu held the cup in both hands and began to alienate.
Now he has the buff [Great Forerunner Mel's Pessimism].
In this conscription, the longer Zhou Baiyu does not use alienation, the greater the increase in characteristics and combat power, and when using alienation, the characteristics and combat power will be slightly reduced, but the probability of positive alienation will be slightly increased.
Zhou Baiyu has not used alienation here for more than ten days, which also makes this buff accumulate a lot of combat power for Zhou Baiyu.
If you continue to alienate, your combat power will continue to shrink, and the positive probability of alienation will continue to increase.
The more combat power you accumulate, the larger the range that can be reduced, and the greater the positive probability upside.
Zhou Baiyu was only alienated three times, and it was shipped under a powerful buff.
He had to sigh that Mel deserved to be a different mage that Sister Lin recognized.
As an alienated among the Great Forerunners, Mel can be said to have gone to the extreme, whether it is an alienated or non-alienated route.
It is also more powerful than any of the previous buffs except for "Death and the Teasing of the God of Reincarnation".
Only a genius like Sister Lin can compare with it.
[Item Name: Dirt Phone.] Durability 41/41. 】
[Features: The sound quality is clear, and it can even transmit the picture, and the most important thing is that it is a cup and can drink water! 】
[Introduction: There will be no one who has not played with the earthen phone when he was a child, two cups are strung together with a wire, and they become the two ends of the earpiece.
Of course, the items that have been alienated will naturally not only have such a simple function, after all, the phone can already communicate with video, and our native phone naturally has to keep up, right?
With the consent of the invitee, the inviter can send the invitee to the place where the invitee is located directly through the handset. 】
[Status: Alienated, deviation rate of 87%.] 】
Originally, Zhou Baiyu was still thinking about how to sneak into Area B, but now, he can observe Area B through props.
"I'll keep one for the cup, thank you for being with me during this time, if you're in Zone B...... Well, it's not happiness, but if you miss me, just talk to this cup, I'll hear it. ”
"Really? Okay, then this cup will be given to you, hahahaha. ”
After taking the cup, Zhou Baiyu said goodbye to Jiang Lu again.
Jiang Lu blinked:
"Jiang Xianwu, you are so good...... You're different from the people here, and I'll always remember you. ”
In fact, Jiang Lu doesn't know what's different.
Maybe ten days ago, she could faintly feel the essence of that difference.
But now, she really can't tell the difference.
She recalled the past experience, and there were some emotions in her heart when she showed her wheat-colored body in the glass room.
So what is it exactly?
When he was ravaged by others to vent his desires, he said goodbye to being warmly embraced by Jiang Xianwu at the moment...... It's all fun, right?
It's the same, right?
She couldn't think clearly.
But this confusion did not last long.
Soon, Zhou Baiyu had already sent Jiang Lu to the central area, and under the guidance of Ai Ou, who was also masked, Jiang Lu looked back at Jiang Xianwu step by step, with laughter, and his figure disappeared little by little.
……
……
At the same time, in the room behind the gourmet castle, Poluk welcomed a truly distinguished guest.
With her head bowed, she knelt in front of the guest and kissed her toes.
The first beauty in charge of arranging work in the country of joy has never been so humble.
"Mother, you're welcome here, are you here to inquire about progress?"
As a woman, the existence that Poluk calls "mother" is very tall, with a height of more than one meter and eighty, which is taller than many men.
Those slender thighs, with just one glance, can make the male creatures feel greatly charming.
"Poluk, my daughter, a new era is coming."
"The world that belongs to humans is about to become a thing of the past, and I once heard an interesting statement from Daredevil Nairi, whose master, Eternal Night, believes that humans are good carriers, and that their pursuit of hope and beauty may be a source of strength."
"But you should know that the value of the mystical treasures, I and the other six guys are monitoring each other, just to prevent one party from becoming bigger."
"This kind of infighting is very boring, in this process, the infighting between us has fattened a lot of guys, such as the kid called sewing, heh, I have a hunch that those guys will suffer in the sewing hands in the future."
"Treasures like mystical treasures, on the surface, none of us have them. But who can say for sure? ”
Poluk still knelt down, oblivious.
She thinks she exudes a charm that will be loved by countless men and women in this country.
But compared with the noble mother in front of him, his charm, even if he is integrated with the special talents of other races, is far from being comparable to his mother.
"Mother" gently lifted Poluk's chin on her toes. Poluck didn't dare to look up at the silver hair at this moment.
"Only by becoming a god can we unify this region, and only by becoming a god can we break through the blockade of the region and connect with the outside world."
"All this is on you, my good daughter."
"You are the most obedient of all my daughters, and I expect the most from you. There is no one who can be equal to me, but in the future, I hope that you will be on the highest throne, my daughter, Poluk. ”
Poluk was genuinely terrified, and she looked at the queen of the succubus clan gratefully.
Yes, standing in front of Poluk is the succubus clan's highest combat power.
The one who controls everything and plays with everyone in the entire Happy Country is also the Demon Emperor who has the closest to human beings or the succubus clan that has long surpassed human beings.
One of the Seven Demon Emperors, the Succubus Empress, Rena.
And the poluk, who has different beauty in everyone's eyes, is a hybrid of a succubus and a desire demon.
No one can imagine why the empress Rena of the year would combine with the extremely ugly desire demon and give birth to a "hybrid" demon like Poluk.
But Poluk is indeed incomparably beautiful.
With the bloodline of the Succubus Empress Rena, she inherited her unparalleled beauty, and also possessed the special talent of the Demon Desire, the Shadow of Desire.
Poluk is Rena's secret weapon.
No one could have imagined that in order to prevent the mystical treasures from being discovered by the other six families, Rena cultivated a character like Poluk.
"The release of desire comes at a price, and this is the power given to you by the blood of the demon in your body."
"Use this power well, and in the future you will become the master of all desires, and at the same time, you will also become my successor."
"As long as you can guarantee that after the arrival of the new era, you will complete the divine grant progress of that item, and when I ascend to the gods, you will be the next Demon Emperor."
Rena crouched down and stroked Poluk like a puppy.
Feeling the "love" from the empress and her mother, Poluk was overjoyed:
"Mother, I will definitely fulfill your instructions and make you a great god. No one would have known about this place until then! ”
The god of laughter and joy.
No one thought that Rena, who had always admired the Gu of Corruption, would prepare herself for such a divine gift.
But it is precisely because she was unexpected, and it is precisely because she is a cunning existence like a human in the Seven Demon Emperors, that this island has not been exposed so far.
Even if it is exposed, no one will think of Rena.
Rena also believes that the few old friends who can evolve to the Demon Emperor level may have something hidden.
Everyone is the ruler of the demon race on the surface, and they rule their own races together, but everyone knows one thing very well-
The first person to become a god is the one who is most likely to unify the demon race.
……
Rena quickly leaves.
She had only come to care about the progress of the divine grant. Find out how the Land of Joy is going.
Divine endowment is a long task. She has a lot more to do.
But the establishment of a joyful nation is the foundation of becoming God.
Those who travel to Zone B are the main source of Bestow progression XP for the Treasure of the Gods.
Rena would come here once a month to see how it was going.
She has a lot of confidence in Poluk, after all, even if it is a demon, there are few people who can resist the dual combination of succubus and lust.
It can be said that although Poluk looks humble in her eyes because she does not have silver hair, the lust demon bloodline and succubus bloodline in her body do give Poluk a strong potential.
So much so that Rozan and Io, two demons who do not belong to succubius or desire demons, have been completely captured.
With the power of the three wars and the special atmosphere here, the country of joy is like a tree, about to bear fruit.
Rena, out of caution, would come here from time to time to take a look.
But deep down, as a demon with wisdom, she doesn't think there will be a problem here.
Because only humans can enter here.
The carrier of the Gu of Corruption is human, and the main carrier of other gods' treasures to obtain divine experience points is also human.
Humanity can resist suffering, calamity, calamity and terror.
But how does humanity resist joy?
The land of joy is an incomprehensible existence, although there was once a man who created the ladder.
People who are accustomed to laughter, comfort and happiness...... Where do you still have the courage to walk up the stairs that snake to the ancient clock in the sky?
With each step of the ladder, the pain carried is unimaginable. There used to be such people, but now there will be none.
Unlike Midel, who advocates learning from humans, Rena believes that the inferior nature of humans will only make the demons weak.
Succubi are a species that surpasses humans, where do we need to learn from humans?
She never believed that there were heroes in this world. Heroes may be born in suffering, but they will not be born in the hothouses of joy.
……
……
Jiang Lu is gone. But Zhou Baiyu did not find a way to get to Area B.
It seems that the passage to Area B can only be opened by Io.
Of course, Zhou Baiyu also has his own backhand, that is, the "soil phone".
Originally, Zhou Baiyu thought that after Jiang Lu arrived in Area B, he would immediately talk to him, but he didn't.
He didn't know that Jiang Lu was immersed in some kind of disillusionment, and he couldn't believe what he saw for a while.
And in this process, Area A, where Zhou Baiyu is located, is still all good.
Zhou Baiyu looked at the stairs that reached the sky, and suddenly wanted to take a walk.
Jiang Lu's only non-happy mood swing is when she sees the ladder. This proves that the ladder once brought extremely strong stimulation to Jiang Lu.
So Zhou Baiyu really wanted to try close to the stairs.
But when he really walked to the stairs, Zhou Baiyu saw two strange things.
The first strange thing -
Boundary.
He could see that the air was distorted and blurred, with a border, not strong, but impossible to get around.
He speculated that if he approached the staircase, he would definitely touch the border, which eventually led to some kind of "exclusion" in the Land of Joy.
Under the effect of "Mel's pessimism", the longer you don't have to be alienated, the stronger Zhou Baiyu's characteristics will be.
The sixth sense player allows him to avoid a lot of "mistakes".
So Zhou Baiyu walked up the ladder without recklessness.
Especially the second point, the closer he got to the stairs, the easier it was for Zhou Baiyu to find that the people around him were more likely to gather.
When he saw the border, some infiltrating scene happened.
Everyone showed stiff smiling faces and looked at Zhou Baiyu with a smile like a motherlander.
So Zhou Baiyu was very knowledgeable and did not choose to climb the ladder.
Although he didn't succeed in the attempt, Zhou Baiyu had some confidence.
The more things that are prevented and forbidden, the more things that are needed to be tried as believers in the gods of difference and chaos.
He quickly found an opportunity to climb the ladder, but not in Section A.
That night, when Zhou Baiyu was about to fall asleep, the cup left by Jiang Lu suddenly began to make a subtle sound.
Zhou Baiyu woke up suddenly, he finally waited for the news from B, took the cup to his ear, and asked in a low voice:
"Jiang Lu, is that you? What about Zone B? What's going on over there? ”
"Hahahaha, hahahaha, Jiang Xianwu, save ...... Help me! ”
The strange laughter is mixed with the words of crying for help, and when the former friends finally arrive on the other side of the longed-for paradise, the shocking darkness hidden in Area B is finally revealed.
In the cup of alienation, not only the words of the friend are transmitted, but also the scene around the friend is transmitted.
This world has always been like this, if there is heaven, there must be hell. Where there is darkness, there will be light.
When he saw Jiang Lu, who was covered in blood, with a smiling face full of exhaustion and madness, Zhou Baiyu was sure that this was the real country of joy.
All the pleasures of indulging in desires have already been priced.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha......"
Dense laughter came from Area B, and the scene that appeared in front of me was the laughter of countless human beings who had been tortured to the point of being inhuman, suffering and joy.
The laughter did not dilute the pain of hell, but added a touch of weirdness to such pain.
Hahahaha's voices are endless.
For the first time in his life, Zhou Baiyu was so disgusted with such laughter.
