Volume 13: The Lights in the Sky Are All Enemies Chapter 4: Going to live
"...If you mention this again, I will have to seal this memory of yours even if it means offending Instructor Li Lin."
"If you can do it, just give it a try."
Faced with the professor's grim threat, the voice in my head sneered, not to be outdone.
As the distortion of the rules and the decay of the world's fate, the Great Demon can be sealed, transformed, and expelled, but they themselves are absolutely impossible to be eliminated. There is no concept of being eliminated. Even if you ask for help from the void for sacrifice, it is useless. It just exists.
Their concept is the same as that of gods. A god cannot be destroyed by prayer and supplication, and the devil as the opposite is far more difficult to deal with than ordinary gods. Gods are diverse but traceable, but as the embodiment of chaotic rules, who knows what the devil's existence form is. So even when facing a professor whose strength is comparable to that of a god, Sally sneered, not caring at all that the professor has a terrifying and incomprehensible power.
Because the power that Sallys possessed could not be understood with normal logic. It was a terrifying power that was on the same level as that of a god.
Working from concepts and rules has always been the most troublesome thing, because no one knows what changes are going on in those things.
"…Forget it. This is the Holy Light Ceremony. I'm not here to argue with a little girl like you. I'm here to celebrate."
After weighing the possible tragic consequences that might follow if he gave up the battle, the Holy Light Professor's expression became unusually uncertain, and finally turned into a cold snort.
"I'm giving you a piece of advice this time. You'd better listen to Angel's words. The Pale Expedition is coming soon, and all the powerful Holy Light masters in the universe will come here to watch the ceremony. Your identity as a great demon means nothing here. You might even be forced to change your form and transform into another prop. However, for the sake of Lecturer Li Lin, no one will do this. But it's best not to embarrass your master."
"I know about this kind of thing, there's no need for you to interrupt me, big bald head."
"If you make any mistakes here, it's not the Holy Light Faction that will lose face, but your master's face. As a hero who completely destroyed the Day of Decay and brought back the previous generation's holy artifacts, if his face is destroyed by your impulsiveness, you know how he must feel."
"I've already said that I'm responsible for protecting the reputation of my master. I will do my best to hide my original interests and hobbies. It's okay even if it means temporarily distorting my self-awareness. But shouldn't you pay attention to that Angel? She's just an ordinary prop, right? She can only come out for a certain period of time every day. If she turns into a brand, she will have to be a taciturn unlucky person most of the time. She is too unworthy of the master. How about taking her away as soon as possible?"
"Then you should ask the two parties what they think. We at Shengguang are only responsible for delivery, not after-sales service."
"I'm talking to you——"
Forget it. This is a special period and requires special treatment. I will be magnanimous and let you go.
Sally gnashed her teeth for a while, and then after communicating with Angel in her mind for a while, she snorted coldly and completely shrank into Li Lin's consciousness. Even if Li Lin called out himself, no one responded. It seemed that she was determined to play dead.
"Perhaps this kind of action is better ." After confirming that Sallys was completely hidden in the sea of consciousness, the professor shrugged to Li Lin and whispered, "Some people have great opinions about the Holy Light's servant army. After all, many of them are survivors of the battle back then, and their mentality is somewhat extreme or prejudiced. Although it is good from the heart, there will always be some deviations in action. The aura of that girl can easily cause trouble, so it's better to pay attention to her."
"I think Sally is actually quite smart and has her own calculations in mind. It's not a big deal to worry about her."
Thinking about the weird gadgets that Sally had made when she was idle in college, Li Lin shook his head and decided to change the subject slightly.
"But where should we go now? Should we just wait here for the messenger to arrive? Or should we reach some secret place through some special means? Didn't they say that there would be some special reception if I came here?"
"Ah, it's very simple, just think about it in your mind."
"Um?"
Li Lin listened to the professor's words, which didn't seem to be disguised, and raised his eyebrows in surprise. He thought about the place he needed to arrive at in his mind.
As if something was touched, under Li Lin's surprised gaze, the pure white sacred world fell apart in the blink of an eye, turning into a translucent scene, and a seemingly inconspicuous winding path was constantly spreading in the void.
“…What the hell is this?”
"The Residence of Saints is basically a place where only those who have made great contributions to the Holy Light faction can live. Regardless of gender, age, or status, as long as you have made great contributions to the Holy Light and advanced the entire Holy Light cause or fulfilled certain destinies, you will be eligible to live in the Residence of Saints. Because of my long-term work, I have reached the third-level Utopia, and because you have ruined the day of decay and determined its demise, you are in the second-level Garden of Life. It is not far away from the original light. If you work hard, you may become a living saint."
"Is it necessary to give such a high honor? Even if I don't understand anything, I know that this is definitely not a position that a newcomer can get, right? It's just killing a dying god. To have such a high position, is there really no problem with your Holy Light? And the person in charge of the plan is basically you, right?"
"There are probably tens of thousands of project teams planning to capture the Day of Decay every year, and there have been countless teams that have actually captured the trajectory, but only our team has truly succeeded. It all depends on you."
"So what?"
"Because of you, Holy Light has completed its final self-examination. He is now the true light. Your significance is as important as the final salvation. Although you don't care and others know the truth, the honor should still be given."
"That sounds strange..."
Shuttled through the light and shadow, countless walls and human figures collapsed and reassembled like bubbles.
Walking on the unique road constructed by consciousness and spirit, Li Lin could feel that he seemed to be walking on a special road, a strange road that did not even exist in reality, and only existed within consciousness, which violated logical common sense.
Its structure is based on the intellect of every intelligent creature. No matter what the topic or state is, as long as there is reason and intellect, it can communicate with the entire residence of the sages through some incomprehensible bridge in meditation, and then examine and identify itself and the holy light itself through the path inside. Physical distance has almost no effect on this wonderful and unique spiritual architecture.
The abode of saints exists in every corner of the holy light, but it does not exist anywhere.
It seemed like walking for a moment, and it seemed like walking for eternity. At the moment of taking a step, he reached the end. Li Lin opened his eyes in surprise, looking at the completely different world in front of him, and was truly convinced by the imagination of Holy Light.
"Then, this is our destination this time, the second level of the Holy Light Courtyard, the Garden of Life. I came here because of you. Let's experience this completely different world that is almost the same as the university."
You will be happy.
Looking at the dumbfounded Li Lin, the professor smiled slightly, and his whole body turned into light and disappeared, leaving him alone standing there.
