Volume 3: The Utopia of the Demonic City Chapter 14: No Thoughts
"boring."
"boring."
"boring!"
"Shut up, demon. It's making so much noise."
"But but, how could you become such a boring person? This really hurts my heart."
"What does it matter to you what kind of person I am?"
"Of course it is related! It's a huge relationship! You weren't such a boring person a while ago, why did you suddenly change your appearance now! Why are you so happy? Why are you so rational? That kind of abnormal expression is what I want to see, but now you are wearing a mask like this, can't you see anything? How annoying!"
"Your little girl tone only makes me feel sick, devil. And wasn't I wearing a mask before? Could you have seen my true appearance at that time? I didn't use my real appearance."
Okay, now shut up.
Looking at the fourth temple in the alley, Li Lin took a deep breath, and the strong feeling of being connected with Sally gradually emerged in his mind. Although he still couldn't fully convey Sally's thoughts, the anxiety and the joy of regaining what he had lost still reached the depths of Li Lin's heart. This feeling of being remembered by others is not bad.
As for whether it is true or false? Does it matter? Wouldn't it be irresponsible to be so clear about life? You only have a hundred years to live, so enjoy the present. And the first element of enjoying the game is to be responsible for your own tasks.
“That should be enough people for one street, right?”
Li Lin looked at the scattered body parts lying on the street and picked up an arm expressionlessly.
After returning to the game, Li Lin immediately came out of the alley and started a massacre of the ignorant crowd. And after changing his mindset, Li Lin discovered a very gratifying change. That is, there are all kinds of game modules in this world.
Well, standing on the street with a soul gun, shooting at the crowd and then slashing the monsters with a long sword, it actually makes people feel happy. How does that sentence go? Beauty is everywhere at all times, but you just lack a pair of eyes that are good at discovering it. After breaking the fixed ideas left by , Li Lin regained his enthusiasm for the game.
A lot of people? A lot of people is good, because a lot of people means a lot of variety, right?
"Is the next one the anchor rune..."
Wiping the sticky blood off his arm, Li Lin held the broken arm and smeared the strange, terrifying and creepy runes that were transmitted from Sallys on the ground.
The words made of blood were engraved on the ground, beside the street, and on the glass, presenting a particularly uncomfortable sense of dislocation. It was as if the original picture was superimposed on another picture of the same kind. Although the feeling did not change, the "thickness" was different. It was clear that there was something else underneath.
And for some reason, the demon that followed over showed a demon in a white coat with a curious look on his face on the display screen.
“How strange.”
Looking at the runes Li Lin painted on the wall, the devil scratched his scalp in a strange way.
"I don't recognize any of these runes. Where did you get them? Hmm? They look a bit like they can summon something, but they aren't... But I advise you not to think about summoning anything. It's impossible."
"Oh? Really?"
"Because this is a fragment of the demon world, you know? And it's a valuable item that many demon lords are interested in. It's impossible for you to call out for anything you want. It's a completely different concept. This place is isolated from the outside world. Unless you summon something conceptually beyond your class, or some other messy thing, it's bound to fail. Inevitably? It's rare for me to give advice to people, so why don't you just take it seriously and listen to it?"
"Yeah?"
Looking at the completed and subsequent tasks flashing on the taskbar, Li Lin sneered.
"It's just a game. I took it too seriously at first... No, I should say I took it too seriously in the wrong way."
"What's the meaning?"
"I was a little confused on the road of life. But then I came to my senses. Anyway, I am just an ordinary citizen, so what does it have to do with me whether you are real or fake?"
"Yeah, so?"
"When people are alone, they often have meaningless thoughts, which are indeed stupid when they think about it afterwards. But when I found out that you will give feedback on every one of my actions, I felt scared. But now think about it carefully, what's the difference? There is no essential difference, right?"
"From a demon's perspective I can't understand what you're talking about. Are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
"No need. You're going to die anyway."
"Huh? Quite the opposite. I think I'm living a pretty good life."
"Then I wish you a good life."
But you will feel bad soon. I promise, it will happen soon.
Li Lin smashed the demon's display screen with a sword and clapped his hands as he looked at the gradually alienated world.
The silent and dead-filled streets gradually began to feel swollen and strange. Just like the slightly twisted space on the flames, a strange feeling filled the streets, as if something was spitting out from inside and something was struggling to get out.
Not only this street, but all the temples that were secretly arranged began to feel this strange sense of isolation. The runes were shining, playing in harmony with the mist above the altar. The dark red blood on the characters trembled out a series of beautiful light texts and prayers, like chains sinking deeply into the void, dragging something down.
The ethereal chanting in the temple became more and more beautiful, like a virgin singing praises to the beautiful world, and gradually resounded in the hearts of everyone in the city. Incomprehensible and incomprehensible cognition gradually eroded from this side of the street to the demon world. Everyone's body was alienated and deformed under the strange and terrifying power, turning into broken puppets and cotton fragments , and the originally heavy demon world streets gradually twisted into a lovely flower structure.
The ethereal singing voices became more and more complex and overlapping, indicating that an indescribable existence was gradually approaching from the outside of the world. Events far beyond the comprehension of mortals gradually arrived, turning everything her into the "world" she understood.
A wonderful world that belongs to her and her companions, her friends, and her lover, a world full of beauty.
"Sallys, get ready to descend."
It's time to change the dealer.
The last temple was established, and with a soft chant, Li Lin stretched out his palm towards the swollen and mutated space. With a shattering sound, the world quietly reversed.
