Him?
He!
Does it refer to...God?
Su Luo's mind went blank for a moment, and he stared wide-eyed at the lord on the bed in astonishment, pondering the meaning behind his words.
"Enforcers, it sounds nice, but they're just a bunch of pitiful chosen ones."
“Great power shortens our lifespan, and even our offspring will have difficulty surviving, all because of His existence.”
"He shared his power with us; this is the price we pay!"
"But not everyone will see Him when they awaken their power. Only a very few people with exceptional talent or whose abilities are perfectly compatible with His will be able to see Him when they awaken. And such people have the potential to become special envoys or lords."
I see.
Su Luo listened quietly. It sounded fantastical, but considering the apocalypse and the existence of strange creatures, the existence of gods didn't seem too far-fetched.
"I saw Him when I first awakened my abilities, and that was the only time."
"Although it was just a hazy golden silhouette, once you've seen that aura, you'll never forget it." As he spoke, the lord seemed to remember something, his eyes becoming somewhat unfocused, as if he were lost in some kind of memory.
"Because He is the source of all our power, the more a human is in harmony with Him, the more their temperament and appearance will resemble Him after using their abilities excessively, and their lifespan will be greatly reduced."
At this point, the lord seemed somewhat unrepentant, glancing at his withered hands and lowering his head slightly.
"If I could, I really wouldn't want to continue with this system."
"But……"
He is gone.
The lord suddenly turned to Su Luo, his eyes questioning, as if he were asking her who she was referring to.
“From that day on, His connection with us was severed.”
"It is easier for law enforcement officers to inherit their bloodline in the future, but the number of awakened abilities is becoming increasingly rare. To this day, there are some law enforcement officers who are descendants of law enforcement officers but have not awakened any abilities."
this……
Could it be that something happened to Him?
But what could threaten Him? Threaten God?
Thinking of this, Su Luo couldn't help but recall the mocking scarlet eyeball in the sky and the thing on the face of that Holy Domain envoy. If it were these strange creatures, they might really be a threat to Him.
"This is not a good sign, and now, my premonition is about to come true."
Perhaps because of Su Luo's appearance, the lord did not hide much from Su Luo and told her a lot, which felt like a farewell speech, as if the lord would pass away the next second after he finished speaking.
“A few days ago, our special envoy in the Wind and Rain Domain called to say that a very strange ability awakener had appeared in their region. It was different from those we had discovered before, and the source of its power was also different. It was very strange.”
Hearing this, Su Luo probably had a guess.
Most of them are humans who have been invaded or contaminated by that eyeball, and have gained abilities similar to those of a monster, and their appearance has also become terrifying.
Soon, the lord's next words confirmed Su Luo's guess. The faxed documents showed humanoid monsters that were no different from the monsters in the post-apocalyptic world.
Was it because of the arrival of these things that He disappeared, or was it because He disappeared that humanity discovered these things?
I feel like I'm a lot like the lord because he's seen Him!
According to the lord, although he looks old, the aura and features he exudes are similar to His—in other words, he himself is very similar to Him?!
Is it similar to a deity whose identity is unknown...?
Because I have also awakened a power that is quite compatible with His?
Su Luo looked down at his hands. What was his power? Was it the [Time] domain? [Ice and Fire Love Song]? Or the financial power he had prepared in advance?
No, none of those are true.
In Su Luo's view, rebirth was an accident, while the system was the power. All of this was derived from the system. However, when he first came into contact with the system, he did not see anything strange, let alone the holy figure described by the lord.
No, there are contradictions, it's hard to explain.
For the rest of the time, Su Luo followed several special envoys and senior law enforcement officers to learn various fighting techniques. She tried almost everything from firearms to melee weapons. A month later, the law enforcement officer who was leading her told her that she could go and get her own weapon.
A weapon that is uniquely your own?
When Su Luo looked at the room full of things that resembled strange artifacts, he couldn't help but sigh.
I thought I could have another trick up my sleeve, but the thought of the oil-paper umbrella I kept in my storage ring gave me a headache.
That guy would never allow anyone else to let her take the other weapons, isn't that ridiculous?
As for Ye Qinglan, who entered the armory with her, after walking around, she picked up a small harp.
Noticing Su Luo's suspicious gaze, Ye Qinglan chuckled and explained, "Actually, before I came to the Enforcer's Office, I wanted to be a musician or a singer, but unfortunately, I can't realize that now."
"But there's always a way out. With this harp, my wish has been fulfilled."
Upon hearing Ye Qinglan's words, Su Luo opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Is that your wish?
In your previous life, you were indeed a superstar who was famous all over the world.
When Su Luo and Ye Qinglan left the armory together, the law enforcement officer almost fainted when he saw one person holding a small harp and overjoyed, and another holding an oil-paper umbrella and looking utterly hopeless.
Whether it was fate or coincidence, among the people who entered the Divine Capital Domain, Su Luo and Ye Qinglan had similar awakening ability ratings, one SSS and the other SS. On a whim, the higher-ups assigned them to the same team without sending any other team members.
According to higher-ups, their capabilities are sufficient to handle crises of S-level or higher, so there is no need to send more team members.
Su Luo: ...
Okay, I'll reluctantly agree, considering this man saved me twice.
However, these two newcomers, who were the talk of the town among all the law enforcement officers, did not know each other's abilities, not even some of the higher-ups within the law enforcement ranks.
Information about the two seemed to be blocked. All that was known was that they were very strong, but no one knew what they were or how to use them. In fact, one of them was holding a harp and the other was pulling out an oil-paper umbrella. They were really... 'outrageously strong'!
Soon, the old lord's lifespan came to an end. Before he passed away, he made one last prophecy. Then, without anyone realizing it, he unprecedentedly chose Su Luo to inherit the position of lord of the Divine Capital Domain!
Everything seemed to be on the right track, on that doomed track!
At this moment, time seemed to form a closed loop, falling into a stalemate.
