Chapter 202 ["Imperfection"]

Chapter Two Hundred and Two

Char drank a little water and gasped for breath, during which time Dotara gave a rough picture of what happened after Char fell unconscious.

Char desperately killed the giant scorpion with a dragon thorn - the process was a bit of luck, because if it hadn't been for the sudden appearance of Azuo's mount, the lizard, which attracted the attention of the giant scorpion, then Char would not have had a chance to make a move.

Then, after Char fell into a coma, it wasn't long before Tatara recovered first.

As for Sharpa and the mercenary, they have been in a coma since the giant scorpion's "psychic storm", and they have never woken up until now.

When he first woke up, poor Tataro was terrified: his own skills were too wasteful, and in such a place where danger was everywhere, if he wanted to get out safely, he might be almost equal to zero.

- Perhaps it is for this reason that the magician, who has always been timid and cowardly, does not run away immediately after waking up - such a place that he cannot escape even if he wants to.

"You mean, they've been in a coma. Char rolled over, and, in pain, unwound the wound on his leg, reapplied some of the wounds left by the Zakun, and bandaged it with his own hands—his technique was naturally much better than that of Tadoro.

Then Char endured the pain that almost made him faint, and examined the broken rib himself—the process almost made him barely hold on—and he endured the terrible pain, and straightened the broken bone, which was a little crooked—and after straightening, the pain after breathing was indeed much lessened. Char was at least relieved: it seemed that the broken bone had not been poked into his lungs.

Tatara was still babbling about how panicked and worried he was, and Char listened for a while, and finally got impatient: "With the fact of your magic, don't you have healing skills?"

Tadoro's face immediately became ugly, but when he saw Char's face sank, Tatara hurriedly shouted: "Master, it's not that I'm stingy with life spells, and it's not that I'm reluctant to spend my life force...... It's just that as you saw from the last experience, I can't control what kind of magic is cast, it's purely a matter of luck and probability...... Like last time, I wanted to use only life damage magic on that tusk, but the magic I released was life healing......"

After a pause, Tataro raised his eyelids and said pitifully, "So, I don't dare to use the Life Healing Technique on you...... What if I release it is not healing, but life deprivation...... So what if I kill you if I kill you? ”

When he said this, Char had no choice but to admit that Tatara was telling the truth.

He didn't want to die at the hands of the mighty fangs, not at the hands of the ferocious giant scorpions, but at the hands of this cowardly and incompetent waste magician!

After resting for a while, Char looked at Sharpa, who was still lying there: "But why didn't they wake up...... It stands to reason that Shalpa's body is much stronger than yours. ”

"This ...... I don't know. Tataro also looked dazed: "I woke up about a few hours earlier than you." But according to my guess, we've been passing out for at least two days. ”

"Two days? How do you know for sure? ”

"I ...... After all, I'm a magician, and I've also done some experiments with creatures. I judged by the degree of decomposition of these corpses. Speaking of this, Tataro smiled embarrassedly and said, "Another important thing is that ...... I woke up hungry and had no strength...... Apparently I was in a very long coma, because the first time I tried to stand up after waking up, my leg was so weak that I almost dropped my front teeth. ”

There was still some food, Char ate a little food and drank a little water under the service of Toddara, and gradually regained some strength, but this time, the injury on his thigh was really serious, and he couldn't stand up at all. If it weren't for the fact that the wound medicine of the Zaku people was really effective, in this harsh environment, just the decay and infection of the wound would be enough to kill people.

But even so, in Char's experience, his leg injury is not expected to recover this time.

His left thigh was directly pierced in two places, fortunately he didn't hurt the bone, but he lost a lot of blood, making him look very weak.

After making sure that his life was not in danger for the time being, Char crawled to Sharpa's side and carefully examined Sharpa and the mercenary - there were indeed no obvious injuries on the two of them, in fact, the battle with the giant scorpion was completed by Char alone, and Sharpa was quickly subdued by the giant scorpion's jīng god attack "Psychic Storm" at the beginning and fell unconscious.

But...... "Why didn't they wake up......"

When Char was thinking about this question with a sad face, the familiar voice in his head made him cry out in surprise.

"Idiot!"

"Dora!" Char didn't care that Dotara was next to him, and he called out happily: "Great, tell me, what's going on with my people?"

Dora's voice was very annoyed, just because Char's own jīng god was too weak, Dora's voice didn't sound very clear, a little vague and weak.

"You're a fool, a brainless idiot! What did I tell you! I'll let you run away at the beginning! You're so stupid that you're still rushing up to this thing! You're looking for death! If it weren't for your jealous luck, this thing could have killed you at least ten times!"

Char snorted: "I don't want to quarrel with you about this...... Tell me what's wrong with my companion, anyway! ”

"Psychic Storm! Don't you understand what Psychic Storm means! This is an attack similar to jīng's divine magic, which triggers all the negative emotions in the opponent's jīng god's consciousness, completely detonates the jīng's divine power in the mind and makes it chaotic! It takes a process to recover. Only people whose jīng divine consciousness itself is firm and strong will recover faster. ”

Oh?

Char was stunned for a moment.

People who have a strong power of divine consciousness themselves recover relatively quickly?

Can...... This guy Tataro was actually the first to recover?!

This guy is obviously a cowardly and cowardly lewd person, but he actually recovers faster than Sharpa?

"Hmph...... This servant magician of yours, though he may seem timid, has a much stronger will in his heart than the others. Dora snorted angrily.

...... Well, that seems to make some sense, at least, when Tatara said in that almost pious tone, "Sir, I'm a magician." At the time of this sentence, Char was also moved.

"The other two guys will have to wake up slowly on their own, but I don't know how much time it will take, maybe soon, maybe not for a month. ”

This answer made Char very upset.

But Todora seemed to be stunned on the sidelines—the poor magician watched Char sit there, talking to himself as if he were talking to himself.

Don't...... My lord, is he crazy?

※※※ Char limped to the corpse of the giant scorpion with a stick, and looked at the dead monster...... At this moment, up close, this thing looks more and more ugly, especially the torso that seems to be on the human body, but it seems to be completely ...... because it has not evolved It looks more like a monkey than a person.

"What the hell is this?" Char shook her head.

In her mind, Dora's voice was a little angry: "Do you remember what was written in that rì book...... jīng God Attack!"

Char's face changed, and Huo Ran glared at the corpse: "What did you say...... It won't be ...... This thing can't be made by jīng in ancient times......"

"Of course not!" Dora snorted: "Although this thing is very powerful, how can a thing that has been made by a race for more than 400 years have only such a little ability, and it was killed so easily by you." But...... This thing, I believe it must have something to do with the thing that was made by that jīng!"

Char agrees with Dora's guess.

It's a bit of a coincidence.

The group of ancient jīng under the mountain stream had no scars, as if they had all died from the attack of the jīng god. And the "gods" created by jīng in ancient times are said to be things that have powerful jīng god attack power. What's even more coincidental is that it was actually on the valley and encountered such a monster that would attack the god jīng.

If this is just a coincidence, it would be too much to say.

Char stabbed the corpse with a stick, and in the hole that the giant scorpion's back exploded, you could see a disgusting mass of internal organs flowing out, and the fishy smell made Char frown and cover her nose.

"Char, I suddenly remembered a detail in that rì book, I don't know if you have noticed. ”

In the back of her mind, Dora's voice was a little hesitant.

"Details?

Char withdrew the stick and limped back to the tree and sat down.

"Do you remember...... In the rì record, the ancient scholar of the earth, the scholar named Sack who participated in the research team in the first district, said something about the writer of the earth, General Curriet, about revealing some of the characteristics of something made by that place......"

Char's heart moved: "I remember that ......"

"They refer to some of the words that are: evil, imperfect, ugly ......"

Char immediately said, "I don't understand...... As for ugliness, you know, the aesthetic standards of the ground have always been different from those of other races. ”

Dora's voice was disdainful: "Phew! you're embarrassed to accuse others of 'aesthetic standards'...... Idiot! I mean 'imperfect'! Imperfect -- that's the detail I'm talking about!"

“...... I still don't understand what you mean by 'imperfection'. Char asked very frankly.

"Oh my God. Dora seemed to moan, "If I had a body now, I would be so angry that I would have stomped you to death." ”

"It's a pity you don't have that chance. Char retorted unceremoniously.

"......" Dora seemed to be speechless by this sentence for a long time, and finally began to explain slowly: "First of all, no matter the religion of any clan, humans, jīng spirits, dwarves, even including our dragon clan, all the gods, these great beings, they all have a common characteristic, that is, perfection. And this 'perfect' image comes more from the sense of sacredness and nobility of the gods. Do you know where these sacred and noble feelings come from?"

“...... I don't know. Lao Tzu never believed in this, and naturally he would not study this kind of thing. Char quickly shook her head.

"yùwang, greedy yùwang. Dora's tone gradually became solemn: "Creatures of any race, even the jīng spirit race, which is considered to be the noblest and most elegant, all races of creatures have their own desires...... As an 'ordinary' being, we all have our needs, our desires, and our greed. There is emotion, there is love, there is hatred, there is taking, there is greed...... We have all the emotions, but the biggest one is: greed. Greed comes from yùwang, and as a living being, yùwang is nothing more than divided into two parts, one is survival, but reproduction!

As higher beings, we are not like those ordinary beasts, we have sublimated these two parts of the yù hope, the yù hope of survival has not only been satisfied with living, but has increased more needs for enjoyment, food, clothing, shelter, transportation, and power, etc., etc...... In fact, these can all be boiled down to the yù hope of survival, but for us higher beings, this yù hope is no longer limited to 'how to survive', but has become 'how to survive better'.

As for reproduction...... I don't think it's hard for you to understand, that is...... Mating! Breeding offspring to keep the race alive.

It can be said that yùwang is the common xìng of all living beings, and it is also our universal xìng.

But the gods, the gods, are above us because of a great quality: they are divine, they are noble, just because of an important reason: they, without yù hope!!

Because there is no yù and no demand, it makes them appear more sacred and noble in the eyes of ordinary beings in the world.

God doesn't need to eat, God doesn't need to be greedy for wealth, God doesn't need to be rich, God doesn't need power...... An even more important one...... Gods don't need to reproduce! Because God, every god is eternal!

Therefore, they do not need to reproduce, and they have no hope of reproduction.

This creates a sense of 'cleanliness and purity' in them, not just in terms of physical cleanliness, but also in jīng spirituality.

So, they're 'perfect'.

So, let's deduce it the other way around.

The so-called perfection is that there is no hope and no need.

What about 'imperfection'? Does it mean 'having hope' or 'having demand'?"

Have a desire, have a demand?

Char thought about it for a while, and suddenly blurted out, "What do you mean......"

According to this inference, it is guessed that this ancient jīng made something is 'imperfect', that is, it needs to eat, it needs physical enjoyment...... Even, it may need ...... Breed!!mate, reproduce!!"

Char couldn't help but glance at the giant scorpion, and suddenly shuddered: "You mean, this damn thing, it may be ......"

"Probably 'offspring'. ”
