Chapter 3: The Price of Desire

As Dream T03 stopped, Yorkham Jones, Ching, Nora, the men's trio in suits, and Kuba's 'Spotted Squad' all gathered in the cockpit.

Except for the transcendent, there is only one mortal in it, the conductor.

"Mr. Priest, can you elaborate on the Wishing Star?" As an unorthodox transcendent, Old Man Kuba has heard of the Law Seal Ranking, but this is the first time he has heard of the corresponding sequence of items.

Instead of answering, Yorkham Jones looked at Nora.

"Mr. Pastor, you're lazy. ”

Nora glared at her, and then said:

"Wishing Star: The fifth in the list of law seals, it is a living law seal, it will randomly appear in any corner of the world, and bring miracles to people.

According to the description, it can grant any wish, and functions somewhat like 'Dream Maker'. ”

Listening to a few short words, the transcendents around him showed greedy and heart-warming eyes, and Kuba asked directly:

"Ma'am, can you just make a wish to increase your transcendent level?"

"Yes. Nora nodded, and looked at Yorkham Jones.

Looking at the crowd with anticipation and greed, Yorkham Jones immediately coughed lightly:

"Everything in the world has a price, and if a wishing star is used, the soul is imprisoned and pays a corresponding price according to the strength of the wish made, even your soul. ”

Hearing that it was at the cost of the soul, the Kuba people hurriedly shuddered, as transcendental, they all have knowledge of the soul, if the soul is controlled, it is really gone, and even death has become a luxury.

"Mr. Pastor, then how can we get out?" the man in the suit asked softly, frowning.

"Make a wish. ”

Listening to Yorkham Jones's answer, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, making a wish would be imprisoned in the soul, and if you want to go out, you must make a wish, isn't this a dead knot.

"It does not imprison the souls of mortals, it only imprisons the souls of transcendents, and for mortals, it is only here to help them fulfill their wishes. Nora next to her explained.

"So, we're going to put all the passengers in Wish Town now?" the conductor asked tentatively.

Yorkham Jones didn't answer, just a tight forehead.

Seeing this, Nora nodded to the conductor:

"Yes. ”

"Alright, I'll go and tell the people to go down. The conductor replied happily and ran out.

After the conductor left, the man in the suit looked at Yorkham Jones:

"Mr. Reverend, did you not tell the whole story?"

Yorkham Jones remained silent, and Nora continued:

"According to records, every time the wishing star appears, it brings miracles and takes away countless lives. ”

At this time, Yorkham Jones finally spoke:

"Every miracle has a price, the transcendent pays for the soul, and the mortal pays for the future, and all the desires are actually paid for by the future. ”

"What if the wish outweighs the future gain?" asked Kuba.

"Life," Nora whispered back.

"Jones, then why don't we just let these passengers die!"

"It's useless. ”

Nora grabbed the basket and shook her head:

"We humans are very easy to immerse ourselves in intuitive pleasure, if you want something you can get in a word, even if you know the danger, you will keep asking for it, not to mention that you can still get any wish. ”

"If we tell them the cost, it will cause confusion and even they will turn against us. ”

"But if we don't say it, we just need to be quiet on the train for a few days before we can leave. ”

At this time, in the 'Spotted' team, a ponytail girl asked with a smile:

"What if I make a wish for the destruction of a world?"

"When you die, the world will naturally be destroyed for you. Nora replied with a smile.

When the man in the suit heard this, he immediately waved his hand:

"It's a god of vanity... I went back to sleep and let me know when I was leaving. ”

"Boss!

The other two attendants also hurriedly followed.

Then, the Speckled team made their way to their first-class box.

After everyone left, Jing Jing tugged at Yorkham Jones's sleeve:

"Jones, I think we should tell them the truth, although we can't save them, they at least have the right to choose, even in the face of irresistible temptations of desire, there should be some people who can stick to their hearts..."

"A lot of times, the truth is brutal. Nora replied softly.

Jorkham Jones didn't answer, he squatted down and pinched his little face:

"But in the course of life, we all have to face the truth. ”

With that, Yorkham Jones kissed the cutie lightly and pulled her out of the cockpit.

"Alas, the people of the Church of Light are still so kind-heartedβ€”" Nora sighed and followed.

...

At the same time, countless passengers walked out of the carriage in a flood of air, and everyone's face was full of doubts, because a notice was suddenly issued on the train:

"We arrived in Dream Town, where you can make any dream come true, and if you want to believe, you can get everything you want. ”

Who would believe such a notice?

Maybe the people in the special civilian cabin at the very end of the train will believe it, because they have nothing to lose, so they are not afraid of deception at all, let alone a lie, even if it is a gamble, they are willing to try.

A wish, a miracle to completely change the poor life, who wouldn't want to?

Soon, the group of shabby-dressed people and even their bodies smelly ran into Dream Town.

Everything in Dream Town is colorful, the buildings are colorful, the floors are colorful, the clouds are colorful, and even the various foods in the town are colorful.

The town has no residents, only countless shops, but there are no doors to enter.

The humans who ran in took a few looks, and then began to search.

Soon, someone found something that made a wish, and there were so many of them, all along a long street, that it was marked with very obvious words:

"Wishing machine. ”

An old man with gray hair walked up to the first wish machine, and he made his first wish with a trembling body:

"Please give me a cotton sweater to warm up in winter. ”

"Ding! Your wish has been collected. ”

"Ding! Your wish will be granted. ”

Two 'ding' sounds came from the wishing machine, and a well-fitting cotton sweater appeared on the old man.

"It's true! It's true!"

When the old man yelled, the crowd behind him had already flocked to the wish machine.
