Chapter 136 Chapter 130·"The Last God"

【Two 10 minutes ago】

"Jasmine" was struggling all the time, she seemed to be extremely depressed, and her tears kept flowing.

Seeing her refusal to cooperate, Su Mingan had no choice but to knock her out first and go to Mayor Mitchell.

"Mayor." Su Mingan walked into the tea room with the unconscious Jasmine in his arms, and met the old man's cloudy eyes: "...No, Boli."

Pauli Mitchell's body trembled slightly. He looked at the girl wrapped in the bloody wedding dress, his pupils vibrated constantly, as if the dusty memory was gradually awakened.

"Boli...Mayor." Su Mingan called his name slowly, feeling absurd about karma and reincarnation in his heart: "Do you remember now? Your past that was bewitched by this ghost?"

The white-haired old man turned around slowly.

Su Mingan saw a tear in his eyes.

"I am, who?" Mitchell muttered, "I am... Poli?"

He walked forward slowly, as if he wanted to touch the girl who seemed to be asleep, but he withdrew his hand suddenly.

He looked at Jasmine, at the blood-colored wedding dress on her body, and watched slowly, as if looking at a treasure.

She is still young.

But he is already old... Even in the day-to-day life, he unknowingly lost his faith.

"...I remembered." He muttered to himself.

Su Mingan was very familiar with that tone, he had heard this person say this in his ear several times:

"—I am Boli, a wanderer returning home from a long journey."

……

On the altered timeline, Poli possessed the memory of that single-player dungeon.

"I remembered that day, after listening to Sarina's words, I wanted to find the lost god and imprison the innocent Jasmine—" Mitchell said with a panicked expression, "But why did I bring her with me? What am I... what do I believe in? Since when did my belief...be changed...?"

Su Mingan put Jasmine aside, took out the dragon-headed crutch, and handed it to him.

Mitchell took it slowly, and slowly stroked the crutch with his bark-like wrinkled hands, as if touching the skin of a lover.

Su Mingan silently waited where he was, waiting for his next words.

"I..." Mitchell sighed slightly and stared at him: "Traveler from the outside world, I want to thank you for your help. You remind me of the time when I was buried—it turned out that after I locked Jasmine in the ancestral hall, I still failed Selina’s expectations, I forgot who I was waiting for, and I even forgot my own beliefs... I was bewitched by the ghost in Jasmine’s body, and even brought the whole town to believe in an evil god..."

He held the leading crutch with both hands, his eyes filled with eager anticipation:
"—Now, I will communicate with God, and free Trilli from the eternal curse..."

Su Ming'an didn't speak.

He knew that Terry's god was long gone.

The faucet crutch in Mitchell's hand lit up, and as it should be, nothing happened.
——There will be no more gods to answer him.

His expression seemed a little lost, but his eyes were full of calm, as if he had already expected this ending.

"It turns out...that's how it is." Mitchell said, "I should have thought of it a long time ago, God, He will not forgive again and again, our group of children who have betrayed their faith."

"You don't have to worry too much." Su Ming'an said, "People die every night in the town, and it's this ghost. As long as the ghost is expelled, even if there is no god's blessing in the future, Terry can still be freed from the curse—no need For whom to fight, you are enough to save yourselves."

Mitchell glanced at him.

This glance was extremely deep.

"Expelling the ghosts, I once thought about doing this." Mitchell said, "But it didn't work...Even if Jasmine is killed, the ghosts will still choose someone else to possess, so we can only continue to lock Jasmine in the ancestral hall... ..."

"And usher in the next reincarnation?" Su Mingan laughed lightly.

...he was mourning the self-deception of these townspeople.

The ghost will not die, it will gradually regain its strength.

Even if Jasmine is permanently locked in the ancestral hall, the ghosts will continue to bewitch the townspeople.

Even if Boli is now sober, his next [Mayor Mitchell] will still be bewitched, and after that, he will only repeat today's process.

——And at that time, will they welcome a new batch of travelers?
Su Mingan has tried his best to this point, but he still can't save these people.If Jasmine continues to be permanently locked in the ancestral hall, waiting to be bewitched by ghosts—what is the difference between the situation and before he arrives?
"We have no choice." Mitchell shook his head: "The ghost is immortal, we can't drive it away..."

Su Ming'an had already traveled all over Terry, but he found no other clues.

According to the progress of the mission, he was close to completing it. As long as he dragged Jasmine to the square to expose the ghost's true colors, he would have successfully completed the mission this time.

He didn't need to meddle in Terry's business anymore. The faction and special missions blossomed. This time, his world dungeon went perfectly.

... There is no need for him to do anything else.

He turned his head sideways and looked at the girl lying on the sofa with her eyebrows stretched.

She seemed to have fallen asleep, with a very relaxed expression, much better than the one he had seen before, leaning against the coffin and weeping silently.

For a moment, he thought of the girl's sparkling eyes at dawn, and the bright golden color in those pupils was very beautiful.

She is still waiting for the follow-up story.

If he left like this, she would continue to be imprisoned in the ancestral hall forever, never to see the light of day.

"..." He was silent for a while.

He always felt that if it ended like this, it would not be the ideal ending.

"Bo Li, I have a solution." He said, "If you want to save the town of Terry, you can try."

Mitchell's eyes narrowed slightly.

……

On the exile square, Aini watched Su Mingan walk towards the center with a girl in his arms.

"What are you doing?" Aini looked at this scene in a daze: "That's the mayor's daughter, right? Why did you let him fall in love... What is this going to do? Today, these townspeople with cerebral palsy are going to start a new life." Exiled?"

The tit-for-tat confrontation of several players was suspended. They watched everything that was happening in the square, and watched Su Mingan hand over the leading crutch to the mayor.

"Are you a clone?" Aini glanced at the silent clone next to him: "Do you know what your main body is going to do?"

"Don't be noisy." He got a very bad attitude from the avatar.

...Didn't you say that the avatar is very gentle!
Aini turned his head instantly, so he wouldn't stick his hot face to someone's cold ass.

Immediately afterwards, he saw that the mayor's daughter——was directly tied to a cross.

Firewood was piled under the cross, as if it was about to be executed.

"What is this...?" Aini murmured.

"Today's exile is my daughter... no, it's the ghost residing in my daughter Jasmine's body." The mayor suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

He looked at the townspeople who were filled with righteous indignation, and said: "This damned ghost, it bewitched us, made us abandon our previous beliefs, and made the great gods abandon us-it is so evil that only flames can burn it Its evil!"

...and it started again.

Aini had seen the fanaticism of this group of townspeople since he first entered the town. They exiled their own people like they had brains, and their attitude was like a group of hopeless cultists.

Anyone who suspects will be sent to death.

Family affection, friendship, and love are all things that can be discarded at will in their eyes.

And now, the person under suspicion has become the mayor's daughter, so the mayor pushed his own daughter to the rack...

He watched this scene a little bored, and slowly opened his eyes when he saw the girl who was tied to the stake.

Her eyes are like heavenly lakes, pure and beautiful, and can make those who look at her feel that their hearts have been purified.Aini felt a little pity-he felt that this girl should be as innocent as most people, but because of the anger of the crowd, she was coerced and pushed to a dead end.

Suddenly, he saw Su Mingan's expression.

He saw this person's expression—Su Mingan's expression, which was quite dignified.

"So, is this what you are advocating?" Aini recalled the scene where this person was at the forefront just now:

"...What the hell are you thinking?"

……

Ghost opened his eyes.

She saw the firewood below, and the mayor with a sad face.

On the side, there are townspeople with numb faces, holding sickles and dung forks in their hands.

They were dying for her to die-sentenced just because of a word from the mayor.

"...You really want to burn Jasmine to death."

Ghost muttered to himself.

She looked at the townspeople who looked so fanatical and wished she would die, and recognized their faces little by little.

These people are still her fanatics.

Now she can still manipulate them to save her and kill the mayor Boli who is suddenly sober. After that, she can still confuse the townspeople, and she can continue to control the whole Trili like a god.

But at this moment, the balance in her heart tilted slightly.

The cross trembled slightly, and her whole body was trembling.

As if she was making an extremely difficult decision, when she saw Su Mingan, who was holding a torch, approaching her a little bit, her eyes were gradually filled with extremely complicated emotions.

"—Is this your idea, traveler from outside?" she asked.

Su Mingan looked up at the ghost hanging on the stake, the heat of the flames slightly scorched his face.

"——I'm asking you, traveler from the outside world." She repeated: "After seeing the truth about Terry and knowing all of this, your idea is to burn Jasmine to death, and then watch me possess the new townspeople?"

"What about Terry has nothing to do with me." Su Mingan said in an extremely flat voice, and when he looked at this ghost, his eyes were extremely stable:

"All I want is victory on the final line."

……

……

"—You're lying!" Ghost Jasmine kept repeating, like a lunatic who suddenly lost his mind: "You're lying! You're lying! You're lying——!"

Su Mingan's eyes were steady all the time, his hand holding the torch did not tremble at all, and the flame rose steadily.

"—It's not that you don't care, Traveler No. [-], I've analyzed your behavior, and you're lying now!" Ghost Jasmine gritted her teeth, "You obviously care, you really care. There's no way you want to burn me to death for no reason— You clearly know that this is of no use, it will only leave Trilly in a deeper darkness—you care about Jasmine, and you want to save her!"

Su Mingan's hand sank slightly.

The flame burned at the end of the stick, with a searing heat.

Su Mingan said, "But it cannot be denied that you also want to save Jasmine."

After he uttered these words, Ghost's behavior like a lunatic stopped instantly.

Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like a pagan witch who was about to be burned.

She opened her mouth slightly, and then, tears came out of her sea-like eyes that day.

"..." Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then, tears uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks.

"Burning Jasmine to death, the ghost will find a new body, but Jasmine will be burned to death—you won't die, but are you willing to let the Jasmine you possess die?" During the day, I also saw you burst into tears because the gods ran away. In the fusion with Jasmine, you seem to have been infected with her emotions——you seem to enjoy getting along with Mitchell, Even if he only regards you as a daughter. You were attracted to Edward at that time, like an ordinary girl."

Youhun's body trembled slightly.

She seemed eager to avoid his gaze.

"You call yourself a god, but you are no longer a pure god." Su Mingan looked at her: "—Youhun, you have to know one thing. Once a god has a weakness, he will no longer be a god."

The ghost chose to absorb Jasmine's soul, trapped in her body, and assumed her emotions.

Ghost actually had a way to escape this predicament long ago.

As long as it controls Jasmine's body to die during the day, it can find a healthier body, absorb a new soul, and restore its strength.

...but it just doesn't.

"—You spent a long time with Jasmine, wandering ghost, you can't bear her." Su Mingan looked at her:
……

"Among all the people who have been forcibly controlled, she is your only sincere fanatic."
