Volume 6: War and Peace in the Black Forest Chapter 22: Mystery of the Past
No one is born a devil, and no one is born a monster.
As a person who has been in prison for ten years, Li Lin was full of goodwill towards the world at the beginning, just like A Clockwork Orange. Well, not to that extreme, after all, the world now advocates the uniqueness of personality, so Li Lin was simply driven to be good, but in fact, his essence has not changed. So he pursued excitement and fun, and joined the internal test of Les Miserables.
At the beginning, the Black Forest had always been his home. The elves there were as warm to him as family, and because of Li Lin's outstanding ability, everything was open to Li Lin. Although he was not yet at the top research level, Li Lin's own analytical and archaeological abilities were already among the best in the entire Black Forest. No young researcher worked harder than Li Lin, and no one learned faster than him, so he soon had a lot of authority.
The priest who adopted him was also an old elf with a lovely granddaughter. Although there were some conflicts at the beginning, she turned out to be a very good girl. The realism of Les Miserables even made him forget that it was a game many times.
He even really regarded this place as his home, as a part of him, and wanted to live here and die here.
But reality always wakes us up from all illusions.
The inexplicable stuck after rising to a certain position, the occasional sighs and compassionate looks from the priest and the girl, as well as the vague atmosphere of the Black Forest, made Li Lin, who was originally a world-class player, feel something abnormal and indifferent.
Then he realized the truth that was hidden under the prosperity of the Black Forest. The reality that he had deliberately ignored before was slowly revealed to Li Lin. The low status of other races, the seemingly peaceful but actually arrogant character of the elves, those secretive behaviors and abilities made people feel cold from the heart, and Li Lin also deeply understood where the tolerance and calmness at the beginning came from.
You will feel happy when you see a smart pet, but will you be happy if the pet grows up and has the possibility of turning against you?
Especially since he never sleeps, he studies very hard and gradually absorbs everything about you.
Even if it was blocked, one could still feel the burning desire to learn. Even if the permissions were blocked intentionally, one could still feel the thirst for knowledge. Just by the priest demonstrating a few beheading swordsmanship, Li Lin found the rules from it, and even learned the essence through some books and records, and advanced to the heretic arbitrator, a profession full of blood and struggle.
So the elves decided to completely confine Li Lin to a clerical job. A smart pet only needs to be smart under their approval, and other behaviors are unnecessary. There is no need for it to exist.
If they hadn't discovered that brainwashing spells didn't work on Li Lin, they would have done it long ago. The girl who seemed to have a crush on Li Lin once said with regret when chatting with the priest that it would be great if Li Lin could be controlled. In that case, she could always keep Li Lin by her side, hang him around her neck and act like a spoiled child, without having to worry about any other problems. And this twisted and morbid emotion was actually recognized by the priest. At that moment, Li Lin realized that this was just a game.
It's just a game, and games are destined to create conflicts. If there is no conflict, then there is no point for players to stay. Creation is no problem, but conflict is the emotion that all players need most. Li Lin felt that all his emotions and mentality were almost thrown away, and there was really no need to take a game too seriously.
So when Li Lin saw those tragic scenes as an archaeological researcher and saw those things that should not have appeared, Li Lin knew that the time had come to destroy this horrible and weird city.
However, reality is always better than plans. Li Lin did not even plan for the plague to appear, but the plague appeared inexplicably in the inner city, immersing all the essences and works in the virus. Relying on the ability of unlimited resurrection, Li Lin ran to the storage cabinet, took out the beheading sword and ritual sword that he had been eyeing for a long time, and began his cleaning work.
After finding that he and the elves could not handle it all, Li Lin decided to sacrifice the small to protect the big. He arbitrarily dispersed all the barriers in the inner city, and then used the formation diagram to strengthen all the outer barriers to lock them, leaving only a few streets for escape, and then began to clean up the inner city. Finally, in the church, Li Lin looked directly at the priest and the little girl who were the general manager and main developer of the plague plan, and chopped off their hands and feet, and then cut off their heads.
Players are born to fight. This is the final punishment for all monsters. However, those elves put all the blame on him, and now there is even a ridiculous monster cluster. This makes Li Lin even more angry.
"Damn it, I still feel so angry... I still won't feel so angry even if I kill you ten times..."
Li Lin struggled to get his body back under custody, and listened to the voice that seemed to say something in surprise.
What did it say? Never It's not a big deal anyway. For a moment, the pain that seemed like slow slicing made Li Lin's mind a little dull. But he still reluctantly took out a piece of candy from the inside of his private space and placed it on the altar.
The overwhelming magic power did not crush it into powder, but instead made this fragile little thing slowly spread. The surrounding light was like some kind of support, arching up the delicate little sugar ball.
Looking at the slowly rotating sugar ball, Li Lin grinned, endured the pain and placed the small sugar cube on the altar, then crushed it into powder. Listening to the faint singing coming from the void, Li Lin could feel his demiplane gradually sliding along with a certain kingdom of God. Looking at the black cloud rolling in the air and gradually showing a certain image, Li Lin showed a "kind" smile.
"The Death Fear Ritual and the Dual Summoning of the Kingdom of Compassion. If you can hold out, then show me how to do it ..."
Faced with all this will, Li Lin's smile became even kinder.
Players will take revenge if they have a grudge. If they say they will kill your whole family, they will definitely kill your whole family. If it's too late, they will give you a big gift package as compensation, not only killing you, but also destroying your nest. This is how Li Lin plays the game as a player.
Go to hell, old man. And your monsters.
