358. The stars in the sky are all enemies

"The stars in the sky may be enemies."

Qianyun suddenly spoke.

"That's good, too."

Ah Guang suddenly smiled.

"This shows that there are indeed not only us in this world, there are other people, so can the gods flying in our sky control the people on other stars."

"You're optimistic."

Asamu laughed too.

"Because I'm not afraid."

Ah Guang replied.

"We have lived in this town for hundreds of years, and there may be even longer history in the future, but no one knows, in fact, even if we have been in the town for so many years, it is only by word of mouth, there is no specific information record, everyone just wakes up every day, eats things from the canteen, and then sleeps, living the same life, leaving nothing."

"But I also left me to think, and even if I die, people will find the traces I left behind, and they will start to think about what the hell this person is trying to convey to us, just like I found that engine."

"Indeed."

Kiriyama nodded.

Although from the perspective of others, Ah Guang is undoubtedly polluted and has become a little insane, but perhaps it is this madness that is the essence of civilization.

As we all know, there are gods in the Chosen Game, but those gods must be strongly polluted, while ordinary mortals are not polluted, so the process of civilization gaining power is a process of continuous pollution.

Ignorant people believed that natural disasters were the work of gods, but after developing reason, people began to study phenomena, peek into the essence, grasp the truth of the operation of all things, and formed civilization.

However, as science continues to evolve, eventually, humanity will recognise the existence of the gods.

It's just that the gods at this time are no longer the same concept as the gods of the age of ignorance.

"If you live here, there won't be wild beasts attacking at night, right?"

Kiriyama glanced at the forest outside, in this kind of place without modern equipment, the forest after night was pitch black, and he couldn't really see his fingers.

"No, wild beasts generally don't leave the forest, and as long as they don't try to go deep into those woods, they won't be attacked."

Ah Guang said, gesturing to the edge of the forest.

"Moreover, I have set some simple traps over there, and if there is a beast invasion in the middle of the night, then it will be stopped first, and I will have enough time to escape."

In the afternoon, Kiriyama went to confirm that in the area near the forest, there were some irregularly shaped pieces of iron, made in the shape of thistles, and those pieces of iron looked like some kind of metal melted and re-solidified after high temperatures, anyway, if a slightly larger beast approached, it was easy to step on.

"It's okay, Ah Shan doesn't sleep at night, you can keep vigil."

Qiao Twilight patted Kiriyama on the shoulder.

“?”

A question mark popped up on the top of the Misty Mountain.

"I can keep a vigil too."

Qianyun, a Penglai person who will not die, has no problem at all if he sleeps for ten days and half a month.

"Then you two keep vigil, I'm going to get a beauty sleep."

Qiao Du said.

Often staying up late, not only will you have poor spirits, but also bad skin and dark circles, Qiao Du is in the time of growing her body, but she can't stay up late every day.

“.”

Kiriyama seems to have gotten used to Qiao Dui's words and deeds.

There were no candles here, and at night they relied on burning bonfires to light the town, and the town soon fell silent.

Ah Guang also lay down early, his bed covered with a layer of dried grass, barely able to sleep.

Although Qiao Du originally wanted to snatch his bed, she was quickly stopped by Kiriyama.

He can only sleep on the floor.

Late at night.

At night, the starry sky was unlike anything else, and the occasional call of an unknown beast could be heard in the forest, but it was all very far away, as if it were from another world.

Kiriyama sat on the broken wall of the next room, hiding in the darkness, looking at the forest in the distance.

"You can actually sleep."

Behind him, the voice of the light clouds suddenly came, and the girl in the skirt happened to be looking at the Misty Mountains for a long time, as if this was not a dangerous game of the Chosen One, but a roadside picnic in a kindergarten.

"It's okay, I'm used to being vigilant during missions."

Misty Mountain Road.

"Which exotic land are you from?"

Qianyun then came to the next door of the Misty Mountain, patted the sloping stone slab, and made sure that it would not collapse directly, and sat on it.

"The Old City."

Kiriyama still seemed to be a little wary of Asakun, and didn't say anything more about himself.

"I think I've heard that it's a foreign land where there's always been war."

Light clouds look into the forest.

"I heard Qiao Du say, you're from Penglai."

Kiriyama didn't really listen to what Qiao Du said, but judged it based on his own experience.

"Yes."

Light Cloud nodded.

"Penglai people don't die, won't you feel bored when you participate in the Chosen Game?"

Kiriyama asked.

"It's not that boring, I can see some scenery that I haven't seen before, and meet some new friends."

Asanomo muttered.

"Moreover, although it will not die, it will also be polluted, become an unconscious monster, and will always be in a state of alienation, and there will be no way to wake up again."

She turned her head and glanced at the foggy mountains next door.

"But maybe even to the depths of pollution, people can become gods."

"There's this theory."

Kiriyama looked up at the starry sky, and there seemed to be no moon at night in the school city, only the stars in the sky, twinkling because of the refraction of the atmosphere.

"I met a Chosen One who said that if you reach the bottom of the abyss and you can contain enough pollution, then blind foolishness will become the supreme god, but then I never saw him again, and I don't know if he died in the mission, or if he really dived into the abyss as he said."

"What do you think?"

Light clouds thoughtfully.

"I don't think I'll ever see him again no matter what, a person's character is his fate, and my fate and his fate will never intersect again."

Kiriyama shook his head.

"That's an interesting way to put it."

The shallow clouds raised his cheeks and looked at the dark night sky.

Silence spread between the two men.

"If you were given a chance at immortality, would you accept this curse?"

Qianyun suddenly asked again.

"You say it's a curse."

Kiriyama noticed the wording of the light clouds.

"Of course this is a curse, isn't it torture to not grow old and die in this polluted world?"

Qianyun pursed his lips.

The starlight was faint, but Kiriyama could clearly see her smile.

"Then I will definitely not accept this curse, but as a Chosen One, if I can die as a human being, it will be the happiest ending."

Kiriyama groaned.

"Then may you usher in your own end as a human being."

"Have you been with that guy for too long?"

The corners of Kiriyama's mouth twitched.
