Chapter 312 Love
A golden-red glow illuminates the earth, and the faded space quietly dissipates.
A thousand consciousnesses flickered quietly like stars in the void.
They are scattered in every corner until microscopic particles reconstruct the world.
The first thing that appears is the azure cube of Taoli College. The predecessor of this cube building is the Apostle Training Center.
Over a long period of time, the Light transformed from a program into an abyssal creature, and its limbs also grew into a huge building complex on the surface.
As the silver-white corridors emerged one by one, the apostles' consciousness became increasingly stable.
They had walked in these corridors for years, even hundreds of years...This was the cradle and the palace where the last hope of mankind was nurtured.
Countless fragments of memory flew by like fireworks.
Chen Xiao'er's face resurfaced in my memory again and again. The pure white North Star burst forth with brilliant light, fading the surrounding stars completely.
She gently caught the abnormality that was raging in the corridor in time and space, and Zero's figure was reflected in her clear eyes.
The girl holds the cat and smiles peacefully, as if she is standing in a bright garden and greeting you.
Time and place all give way to the characters. The moment Chen Xiao'er appears in his life, the sealed time is unshackled and begins to flow again.
I lived for hundreds of years to save humanity, but at the end of this road, I met you.
Do gods exist in this world?
The teachers’ answer was, “There is no God like humans desire, so we need to create Him.”
The end of the world is slowly approaching, but just when I gave up all my delusions, an invisible hand dipped in bright paint painted a bright you in the gray and black painting.
The girl walked in the silver-white corridor, her footsteps sparkling with crystal light and stained with stardust-like memory dust.
One by one, the stars dimmed in an instant.
The puppet carrying the human soul finally shifted its gaze from the broad concept of humanity to the white hole in the sky.
The thoughts instilled in us since childhood are heavy and solid, but light can always easily penetrate the darkness.
"No, it's just the feeling of having my emotions awakened."
Many stars still emit a calm light, directing the fluctuations towards those dim stars.
"Love at first sight is about hormones. You just happen to be attracted to that type of person. It's a rare occurrence, not divine destiny."
“People tend to have a certain degree of yearning for beautiful concepts they have never experienced.”
"Chen Xiao'er is the only one who can give you and us affection, which is why we all have a special feeling for her. We can't let this affect our judgment."
Really?
Facing the iron wall of resistance from his companions, Zero took the initiative to open the thick pages of the book.
The first encounter, the trust in the air, the tears after the deep dive and...
The field of view changes from looking straight ahead to looking down.
The pale girl lay on the cold hospital bed. It was not until she slowly opened her eyes that she could hear the sound of blood flowing back in her ears.
She was hurt.
She was just an ordinary girl at first, and all her strength was based on her ignorance of power itself.
Chen Xiao'er had many reasons and opportunities to complain.
If the world hadn't collapsed, if she could clearly distinguish between truth and falsehood, if she could gain an ability that would be even more beneficial to herself...
If we had not coveted her power and approached her with caution, she might have lived a happier life.
"No, Chen Xiao'ai was discovered by the Devouring Snake Cult at birth. Without the church's help, she would most likely have been sacrificed to the Devouring Snake or crafted into a rare artifact."
The stars waited for Ling to refute, but she did not mention the plan of the Saint of the Devouring Snake. Instead, she let the hands of time move backward.
Some memories once belonged to Zero alone. Chen Xiao'er is not the embodiment of the concept of "beauty". She also has times of fatigue and discomfort.
But - she never stopped, and even took the initiative to forget the hurt.
"...She just doesn't understand."
It’s not just the Devil Hunters who are “forgiven,” isn’t it us as well?
"You are simply indulging in selfish love."
"Your relationship has only been going on for less than a year, and it's at its most passionate."
Selfish love? Can our love for humanity really be "greater" than Chen Xiao'er's feelings?
The stars wanted to respond to her [Of course] but they couldn't.
Because Ling used the fastest speed to show pictures of Chen Xiao'er interacting with humans in an extremely friendly way.
She is illustrating her point through her actions: the person I love has even broader love than you do.
"That's a side effect of her ability. Under the influence of her cognitive filter, she believes those abnormalities are human."
So she does love humans as much as we do, and she can even "love" non-human groups as humans, right?
The influence of the cognitive filter itself is related to Chen Xiao'er's consciousness. She is willing to treat the world gently and is unwilling to speculate about unfamiliar lives from a malicious perspective, so she suffers a lot of deception.
...also brings us a lot of hope.
“She is indeed beautiful.”
The fluctuations of the stars seemed to be sighing, "But we shouldn't put the human race in danger for the sake of a single individual."
Who is putting the human race in danger?
As Zero asked this question, the still flickering stars condensed into the image of Number One in front of her.
Lin Yi is the only apostle in the same batch as Christie.
She was the second human to be successfully transformed. In the last moment when she lost her emotions, she saw Zero's pale and determined face in front of her. That scene stayed in her heart for hundreds of years.
Bang, bang, bang.
Chen Xiao'er's footprints extended forward, and the solidified river pulsated with her heart.
Lin Yi in the starry sky reached out to Christie.
No. 1 and No. 0 in her arms held hands, their minds connected, so that deafening question spread through the Internet to every corner.
She wanted to answer: "Chen Xiao'er is also a human being, with all the volatility and fragility of a human being."
They wanted to answer: "It is a more reasonable choice to let artificial life forms without real emotions and without any option of betrayal protect humans."
Ke Ling's two rebuttals came one after another.
Guanghui may not be without the option of betrayal. Can't you sense His changes and concealment? And -
"Chen Xiao'er is also a human being. She is also a part of us that we need to protect."
I will protect her no matter what.
This was the original instruction of the church and also my own choice.
The silvery-white stars along with the North Star radiated sharp light, and the remaining 999 stars flickered and closed their eyes one by one.
Emotions are a human weakness. The apostles still possess extremely strong bodies, but too many of them are immersed in turbulent emotions.
The once tough web was shattered, and Zero easily penetrated the chains wrapped around him, firmly grasping the wrists of No. 1 - and the wrists of hundreds of her companions behind her.
"Save her." A light flashed in the ice-blue eyes, permeated with endless cycles of emotions.
"Save... humanity."
The soul pool, the abyss, the wilderness, and the classroom flashed repeatedly in his mind, and finally condensed into empty rooms.
We all have a mutual understanding and we sleep beside each other, but in this ever-flying time, some things are sealed in the past just like feelings.
Help me.
To fulfill our original wish - to bring humanity, as many humans as possible, to the peaceful and beautiful new world in ancient legends.
A grand light exploded in reality.
Chen Xiao'er, sitting in the sports car, looked up at the sky not far away with tears in her eyes. A number of silver-white cars were speeding past on the overpass.
......
"What's going on?! The main control console has lost contact?!"
The experts in the expert group also lost their usual calm.
Even if most of the manpower was invested in the final battle, there shouldn't be any problems with the main control console and the real control core.
What's even more terrible is that once this place loses contact, it means that the enemy has broken through the final line of defense and is targeting the Glory - that is, the Glory Church itself!
Staff members at various locations simultaneously called out to Guanghui, hoping their deity would offer a reassuring response. However, as testing continued, two terrifying theories surfaced.
Could it be that Guanghui broke free from his restraints and chose to betray at the last moment of becoming a god?
Could it be that Despair hadn't focused on the front lines, but had been lurking within the Church's control network? After all, this place was within the scope of the Power Ritual.
It's hard to say which of these two possibilities is worse, but combined with what they are about to do now, it's a kind of black humor: humans who are about to betray humans are facing the backstab of the abyss creatures, haha...
【Recall the Apostle Cluster First】
The sequence of beings immediately issued the highest order.
Apostles are the closest beings to power holders in the Glorious Church, and perhaps they still have some fighting power.
But the observers soon gave bitter feedback: "Apostles... Apostles are disappearing in large numbers for unknown reasons!"
......
Snap, snap, snap.
The woman leaning back in the high-backed chair clapped slowly.
She said in a somewhat teasing tone, "They finally reacted, not bad. At least six people fell into the trap I set right away. Unfortunately... it's too late."
Crimson energy spread out from the devil's body, interweaving with the surrounding golden-red glow.
"I've always wondered why I was able to leave such a crucial backup plan within the church back then." She narrowed her eyes slightly, and her eyelashes trembled in the flow of light.
Missing memories, deliberately ignored doubts, and a "friend" who should exist but doesn't.
These are mistakes that the devil should not make, unless... a certain past is erased by a higher-level power.
"However, there is no need to think too much about it now."
She reached out and actively activated the backdoor in the underlying rules.
This backdoor must be opened with a human key in the technological age, but in modern times where strange powers continue to this day, it can be accessed using the original instructions from hundreds of years ago.
Click, click, click.
The sound of gears engaging rang in my ears. Those instruments had already become part of the light, manipulating every link within it.
The next step is to completely take over Guanghui. Of course, this artificial god will definitely withdraw his hand and fight back strongly.
Her right hand, which had taken off its gloves, turned into a sharp claw, plucking the intertwined lines of rules in the air, first throwing the apostles into chaos so that they would not come to cause trouble at the most critical moment.
The devil's core resonated with a roar, ready to deal with the glorious counterattack at any time.
Um......
The golden sun is always lurking in the sky and the abyss. An inexplicable premonition makes Niai raise the corners of his lips slightly.
"Are you going to betray yourself, Miroku?" You yourself are one of the backup plans I left behind.
[“I never betray myself, devil.”] The gloved left hand fiercely grabbed another cluster of golden lines beside the devil, and the high-back chair instantly rotated upside down.
"I'm curious, why don't you think about it carefully - who gave me permission? You?"
