Volume 12: Cafe Heroes Chapter 5: Serial Quests: Knot of Light
'Special chain mission: Knot of Light
There is always a shadow under the light. Although this sentence does not conform to the purpose of Holy Light, the light cannot pass everywhere because the world itself is a coward. Therefore, the Holy Light Pioneer came into being. Break the barrier that blocks the light, and then the light will naturally cover the earth without any blind spots. But because of this, the Holy Light Pioneer is full of threats and terror. The concept of this position itself seems to be cursed. Every Holy Light Pioneer is the strongest person on the planet or the warrior with the greatest potential, but curses and fears also accompany this position like a shadow, just like their fate.
Except for those who died in battle, disappeared, or were mentally polluted, only 10,000 Saint Light Pioneers managed to survive to retirement. At the end of their lives, these warriors often suffered unspeakable fears, and then disappeared, or left behind some strange but incomprehensible texts and letters. These items are piled up in the library of Us. Perhaps the archbishop there can help you find the answers hidden in this profession. '
"…It's such a serious introduction."
Looking at the Wusi Square where he had been teleported to, Li Lin couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the world full of flowers around him.
Seeing Li Lin sighing, countless tall beauties walking around showed curiosity, but after turning to see the mask on Li Lin's face, they chuckled, waved at him, and then walked into the noisy crowd.
The modern world before my eyes was no different from reality, with tall buildings and crowded crowds everywhere. All kinds of handsome men and beautiful women were walking and laughing on the streets, and countless airships were flying in the sky. From time to time, advertisements for various cosmetics or other things were projected on the screen, attracting people to stop and watch. It was even hard to tell whether they were gamers or not, because the people here were also discussing various video games, popular music and animation.
If it weren't for the standard steam mask of Sodom on his face, the old clothes, and the ability to feel the magic flowing slowly in his body like a hot spring, as well as the eye-catching task prompts and coordinates, Li Lin might think that everything in front of him was back to reality. But in fact, Wusi is like this. Although it is very close to the Holy Light Sect, it is obvious that the people here are not infected by the magic of freedom or hell, and there is no special friction and struggle. The people on the entire planet are full of optimism and upward spirit. Although they are a bit too warm and friendly, it is still a place like paradise.
Paradise Planet.
Behind countless battles, there are always flowers blooming. The universe is so huge that even though the entire galaxy is in chaos, for many planets, thousands or tens of thousands of years without war, or even without the word "war" in a sentence, is a common occurrence.
Some inconspicuous miracles in the darkness of the universe may be described more accurately as follows. This planet has a population of 7.3 billion, with an extremely harmonious ratio of ocean to land of 50:50. There are no particularly high mountains, no particularly deep oceans, but only the interest perception and creative ability beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. The people on this planet are very keen on creating happiness and making happy things.
It's not just about sex, there are other sensory stimulations as well, such as reading, games, music, movies, etc. Sexual openness is one aspect, but strictly speaking, they are not the kind of promiscuous and shameless people, they are just relatively romantic and good at being emotional.
"It's like traveling back in time..."
Really true.
Reaching out and touching the window, looking at the dazzling array of accessories on the counter, Li Lin couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing Li Lin, who was wearing strange clothes and a mask and touching the window, several beautiful salesgirls behind looked at each other and began to whisper to each other, occasionally looking at Li Lin and chuckling, which made it seem more like it was really happening in reality.
But this outfit is indeed a bit inappropriate. Wearing such a thing on such an entertainment planet, it is likely that people will mistake him for a cosplayer. Li Lin thought about it and nodded and waved to the two shopping guides. The two beautiful women looked at each other and nodded and waved as well, as if they really regarded him as a cosplayer. They gave him a "come on" encouragement gesture, without any of the vigilance and malice that they had on other planets.
After walking out of the store, Li Lin couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the salesgirl who was waving and smiling at him at the end.
"What a great place..."
'But why can't I get out?'
Sally's distressed cries came into her consciousness.
"I want to go out too! I want to walk along the street with adults, eat dessert and watch anime! Why don't you let me out!"
'Ms. Sally?'
A slightly confused, gentle and pleasant girl's voice immediately sounded in my mind.
"Please stop shouting in your mind. My mind is vibrating very violently now. If you continue like this, I will be shaken out—"
'Go away, you guys from the Holy Light Department! Your sea of consciousness is mine, it has always been mine, and it has always been our world for two people! Why did you come here? And you will definitely sneakily transform into a physical form, right? Right! What the book says is true, men will really look for this kind of young, beautiful, and capable mistress in the future, and throw their original wives aside? ! '
"Miss Sally? At least don't say such harsh words. I really just admire the Pure Life One, ah, the Vanguard Officer, so I want to become his eternal follower. I don't have any special thoughts. Please don't be so impulsive-"
"I know! It's all written in the book. At first, they must have said it was just a joke to make me lose my guard, and then they came closer and conquered me little by little . That's what the book says!"
'Sally, calm down, I'm not going to do anything to you.'
"Aa ...
"Calm down, it's a system upgrade issue!"
Although it's still a solo mission, why does it feel as noisy as if we were a group of a hundred people?
Under the strange gazes of passers-by, Li Lin reached out and patted his head, hoping to calm down the exploding ocean of consciousness a little.
