Chapter 20 He A'd it!
The strong mental pollution made Luo Wei unable to move instantly.
He gritted his teeth and could only watch the twisted object in front of him slowly wriggling towards him.
"elder brother……"
"Why did you betray me?"
"Did Helena do something wrong?"
Her tone was still sharp and strange, not like the sound that could come from human organs.
"Sure enough, everything I did was useless..."
"I'd rather kill you, brother. As long as, as long as we can be together forever..."
"That's good, that's good..."
Countless dark tentacles wrapped around Luo Wei's limbs, as if they wanted to devour him.
Sanity Check...
The sanity test in the game is a test of attributes and luck, and requires rolling dice.
In reality, this became a tough struggle for Luo Wei's willpower.
This time, he almost failed.
It was as if a string was broken in Luo Wei's mind. The strong mental shock almost made him lose consciousness, and his eyes gradually became dull.
His arms slid down weakly, the potion fell to the ground, and the liquid splashed on the tentacles under Helena's skirt.
Although the inhibitory agent is basically ineffective against alien creatures of this level.
But Helena's pollution level has decreased a little.
At this moment, Luo Wei's mind finally regained some clarity.
Fortunately, there was such a bottle of medicine. Luo Wei was extremely glad for his previous decision.
He stared at the twisted thing before him.
【Negotiation/Appeasement (Master)】
【0:00:00】
The skill cooldown had ended, and he seized the opportunity and used it on .
In an instant, it seemed as if a lot of unknown and complex knowledge was poured into his mind, and Luo Wei's entire mental state became calmer and more composed.
A master of negotiation, if you want to convince the other party, you must first have a stronger psychological advantage than the other party.
This is true even when facing twisted monsters.
I didn't expect that this skill would become a powerful weapon to fight against the spiritual pollution of evil things. It was really a pleasant surprise.
Amidst countless tentacles, Helena's bloodshot eyes suddenly revealed a hint of confusion.
Because she found that even in this situation, her brother did not show any fear, but was smiling instead.
That indifferent smile made her feel disgusted.
"What are you laughing at, brother?"
“Are you laughing at me??”
The tentacles began to exert force, making terrifying sounds on Lowe's limbs, and he was about to be dislocated.
But Luo Wei still looked at her indifferently.
"I do laugh at you, Helena."
"What?" Helena's eyes widened ferociously, her entire face distorted in a terrifying way.
"I just want to ask you sincerely," Luo Wei said calmly, "Aren't you still running away by doing this?"
"What do you mean by escape?" Helena was stunned by his question. "What are you talking about?"
It should be the effect of [negotiation/appeasement]. Helena actually listened to it. If it were the same as before, Luo Wei would have been killed by her by now.
He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
But it didn't show on his face, Luo Wei still smiled calmly.
"You want to kill me? You think you can get me this way? What kind of train of thought is this? Aren't you just trying to escape by doing this?"
"You're so afraid that they'll snatch me away. That means you're a loser. The most pathetic and unfortunate loser is the poor wretch who curls up under the bed with his eyes covered."
Luo Wei chuckled, and that smile made Helena even more angry.
"What!?"
Her face became hideous and terrifying.
"I'm a loser? No! I'm not a loser! I got you, I got everything I wanted, they all lost! I'm the happiest person!!"
"Haha, no way." Luo Wei's smile became even more pitiful. He looked at Helena as if he was looking at a poor creature who looked strong on the outside but was actually weak on the inside.
"Can you tell me, what is your purpose? Is it to get me? To get my brother?"
Helena sneered, "What else?"
"But this is not the goal, it's just a means to achieve your goal." In this situation, Luo Wei actually started to talk about logic to her seriously.
"Wait! Wait!" All of Helena's tentacles were trembling unconsciously. "You've confused me! What exactly do you want to say?"
Luo Wei chuckled, "It seems that Helena, you are lying to me. You don't usually study, and you haven't sorted out these things."
"Alas... As your older brother, this is indeed my responsibility... It seems I need to give you some remedial lessons sometime..."
Helena looked at him in confusion .
"ah?"
When Luo Wei saw that Helena's mood had relaxed a little, the smile on his face deepened.
"It seems I need to point out to you that you are trying so hard and racking your brains, not just to get your brother."
"It's about grasping happiness. As you just said, Helena wants to be the happiest person."
Luo Wei looked at her with sharp eyes. He saw that Helena was lost in tangled thoughts, with an expression of great struggle.
"Haven't you ever thought of another possibility, another ending to the story?"
"What ending?" Helena's mind was in a mess. This feeling was very strange.
She knew that her brother said these things to delay time or for some other purpose, but she just couldn't bear to kill him directly.
For some unknown reason, Helena really wanted to hear him continue. She also wanted to know what she was thinking and what she was pursuing...
Luo Wei showed his signature gentle smile.
"That little girl who used to live on the streets, was chased here and there, always had no food to eat, was so hungry that she looked pale and skinny, and was not at all pretty..."
"Don't you expect your favorite brother to come home from school every day and prepare a table of hot meals just for you?"
"Maybe cream of mushroom soup, maybe macaroni drizzled with seafood sauce from the seaside city of Bruges, sprinkled with onions, or maybe the same soft, freshly baked bread I had when I first met you. Hmm... just thinking about it makes me feel delicious."
"If you kill me now," Luo Wei blinked, "you will never be able to enjoy this wonderful life again."
The pair of bloodshot red eyes were still staring at him, but the strength of the tentacles had been invisibly reduced a lot.
It means she listened.
Luo Wei continued his efforts, he went straight up and hit the heart.
"Don't you look forward to the holidays, when we walk down the sunny St. Karen Street, in the bustling city, happily buying new clothes, you putting on a pretty little dress and spinning around happily, or your brother winning a prize and stuffing a huge stuffed teddy bear into your arms?"
Luo Wei looked at her earnestly, even ignoring the resistance in his heart, pushed aside the tentacles and stroked her head as usual.
"These are things that any girl your age would experience. It's perfectly normal..."
"Because of your miserable childhood, you've never experienced this. I'm actually very sorry. I ignored your feelings before and never did this..."
"You have a long life ahead of you. Wouldn't it be a shame if you didn't experience these happy things?"
"Brother will help you realize the wishes that you have not been able to realize before."
"Isn't this better than us becoming two cold corpses? If you die like this, what have you gained over those you hate?"
Luo Wei looked at her sadly, "You lost, you still have nothing."
"So... stop deceiving yourself. Stop deceiving yourself."
