Elf Archer of Life in Another World

God loves the world, and his reward is the world's loyalty and devotion without expecting anything in return. From this point of view, it is understandable that God does not love the world.

Following the crowd, they walked around the high platform in the middle and entered the back room. Nick and Qi Youfeng were mixed in with the crowd of excited and devout believers, and came to the baptism pool.

The pool is built indoors, but the water is running water. The bottom of the pool can be heated when needed to avoid discomfort for new believers and newcomers who enter the pool. If they accidentally sneeze or shiver during baptism, it will not Perfect.

The new believers who had changed into pure white linen baptismal robes and the kind-hearted elders led them down the steps from both ends of the pool. The two of them were half-immersed in the water. The agent of divine power here who presided over the baptism ceremony stood on the bank of the pool and sincerely prayed. Believers offer prayers for death and new life before God.

The water rippled, and the crowd watching the ceremony felt a cool breeze surrounding them. They were even more immersed in the sacred atmosphere at this moment, without squinting or listening.

No one noticed that Nick and Qi Youfeng's eyes met and their lips moved slightly from time to time, just like no one noticed Qi Youfeng's sudden expression of astonishment.

"So, you are not indulging Nian Nian, but you want her to face up to her character flaws?"

"It's not a character flaw, but an unconscious behavior that makes me very unhappy." Nick corrected him in a calm tone.

"She may not take other people's words to heart, but if it were you," Qi Youfeng looked at Nick with complicated eyes, "she would definitely think about your words seriously and make changes. Why would you let the situation develop to this point? situation."

"Well, I know," Nick turned the dark cyan bracelet on his wrist, "It's precisely because I have a great influence on her that I can't interfere too much. I hope she can do whatever she wants, no matter right or wrong."

"Even if this incident can have a more satisfactory outcome due to my intervention, what about the future?"

Remember m in a second.

"I can't always be here."

Qi Youfeng was speechless for a moment. Nick's worries were not his worries. The time he had every year was endless, but their time could never catch up.

However, Qi Youfeng wanted to engrave himself deeply in Nian Nian's memory in the limited time, but Nick wanted to guide Nian Nian on a path that he would not have to worry about if he walked alone.

"I know I'm not qualified, but I still want to thank you on her behalf." Qi Youfeng suddenly smiled with relief.

He no longer wanted to discern what Nick's motives were for standing behind Nian Nian. He believed that with Nick's sense of proportion, he would never do anything that would trouble Nian Nian and himself.

"You have the qualifications," Nick glanced at him, "She gave it to you, otherwise I wouldn't waste my time explaining it to you."

Qi Youfeng is not the only one who has doubts about his actions. He wants to ask why he knows that he will fall into a trap every year, but does not give a warning in advance, but arranges the aftermath early, and the aftermath is also It's not complete, the layout is very sloppy, it can only be said to be better than nothing.

Shisui has a steady personality and thinks deeply. He will think for himself first, and only after analyzing and comparing to come up with a reasonable answer will he come to Nick for verification.

The focus of Simil's thinking was not "why" but "what to do". He had already taken over this scrawled arrangement for the aftermath from Nick. Qi Youfeng watched him full of anxiety and stayed with this man some willfully. Keep a distance to prevent the unspeakable sourness from overflowing your chest.

The members of the Christmas Clown Mercenary Group all trusted their leader unconditionally, and any doubts in their minds were eliminated by the leader's prestige without even raising a splash.

Moreover, as someone who is very close to and knows Nick and Nian Nian, Qi Youfeng feels that at least Sarah, Dion, and perhaps Alexander have all guessed what Nick is thinking.

In fact, Qi Youfeng already had the answer in his mind.

That was when he and Nian Nian were still in the Bagua City of Huaxia Mingtang. Nian Nian issued two public declarations through the Tongtian Tower of Bagua City, focusing all the prying eyes on himself and trying to separate himself and Sanchi. Shui was sent away, leaving her alone to face the onslaught of Deputy Captain Helen and other players.

At that time, he was still an outsider watching with a cold eye. He was keenly aware of Nian Nian's righteous and awe-inspiring behavior, which was almost self-sacrifice. He also warned him. Unfortunately, he gradually became trapped by love, especially when he himself was included in Nian Nian's protection. After the scope, it is even more blinding.

Before that, she would regard the accident in Zanghua Valley and Yu Tao's death as her own responsibility every year and feel guilty. After that, she also took on the role of prophet for an old man she met by chance in Hawarizh City. title.

Nian Nian is not a good person, but once she is included in her protection, she will unconsciously and without hesitation regard everything of others as her own responsibility, and even take on more.

The baptismal ceremony reached its climax. The host held the believer's wrist tightly, and the believer also held the forearm of the host tightly. He leaned back with no hesitation in his movements. He was obviously concerned about his host. He is extremely trusting, and he lives up to his expectations when he welcomes people. He protects the believer's back with his other hand, and after the believer's whole body is immersed in the water, he immediately lifts the person up.

Words of blessing for the new life were continuously uttered from the mouths of the viewers. Nick and Qi Youfeng finished watching the baptism ceremony and picked up the interrupted conversation.

Nick seemed to be inspired and said softly: "The first time I met Cy, I knew she was a person who loves life extremely."

He used to think that living was a boring and uninteresting thing, but this game happened to be very real and allowed him to constantly experience the pleasure of death, so he came to the game to pass the time until he saw that extremely vivid girl and was captured by her. His tears lit up his expectations for life.

He wanted to see how this elf girl named Cybele could "live" here.

"However, in her sincere love, the part that belongs to her self is extremely small, and the part that belongs to the world outside herself is extremely vast."

"After all, her self has been lost for too long, but was rediscovered by this real and false world. In other words, without this virtual world, she would not have realized that she was a 'person'."

"Therefore, her inner world, which can also be said to be her self-image, is actually extremely barren, so she can give up easily and sacrifice it without hesitation."

"The people she cares about are not really deep in her heart. Firstly, she knows that her memory is data and does not need to be remembered deliberately. Secondly, her subconscious still regards these people as part of the 'world' instead of Part of who she is.”

Nick looked at Qi Youfeng: "Are you sad? When you find out that you are not deeply loved by her."

Qi Youfeng shook his head: "No, I know she tried her best. Besides, we still have time to take it slow."

Nick was very pleased and patted him on the shoulder:

"There are many forms of love. Shared interests and ideas, a journey together, bodies that fit together, and souls that resonate and cherish each other can all be what love looks like. Of course, the last one is the most ideal state, but other forms It’s also love, regardless of good or bad, it just depends on how the two get along and get along, and what kind of ending they can reach.”

Qi Youfeng sighed slightly: "Your words make me feel very threatened."

Nick laughed: "Don't say Cy has no ideas. In fact, Simil hasn't seen his own changes in mentality yet. You don't need to be too nervous."

After saying that, Nick touched his chin: "Speaking of which, my Cy is so good from the inside out, how come so few people are attracted to her?"

Qi Youfeng couldn't help but sigh again, with a hint of resentment: "I guess you have a share of the credit."

If he had only met Nian Nian after coming to Gaia, or if he had discovered that there was a Christmas clown mercenary group behind Nian Nian, he would most likely have the wisdom to retreat.

To be honest, if he hadn't been broad-minded and relatively stable, and based on the way he got along with people like the Christmas Clown Mercenary Group every year, I'm afraid there would have been suspicion and resentment between the two of them.

Qi Youfeng couldn't help but touch his chest. From this point of view, his older age was an advantage. Otherwise, how could he have such a mature and tolerant heart? But why did this idea make him so frustrated?

Glancing at Nick, Qi Youfeng really didn't want to admit that his age advantage was completely shattered in front of this man, and he always felt like he was being taught a lesson.

"I'd like to ask, how old are you this year?" Qi Youfeng decided to go all out.

"Smaller than you, older than Cy." Nick answered in a roundabout way, obviously on purpose.

Qi Youfeng cupped his hands and calmed down as if he were meeting his father-in-law.

While they were talking, the two of them had already returned to the front hall of the church with the crowd watching the ceremony, and found a bench at the back to sit down. They listened absently to the believer on the high platform who had just completed the baptism ceremony as he talked about his journey of converting to the faith.

This church is located in the papal country, very close to the Papal Hall, about half a day's journey. It is precisely because of this that neither the army of the undead going south nor the Holy Temple of the True God on the border of Chen Bing is enough to make the believers in this church and The priest was panicked and would not let them cancel this sacred and lengthy baptismal ceremony.

One after another, a knight in armor, a bald lady in blue robe, a dwarf in bright clothes, and two tall elves with different skin colors stepped into the church and sat down around Nick.

The twins quietly sat down on the row of benches behind Nick and whispered: "There was some delay at Walton, and Cy is still in the game world at this time."

Walton asked Albert to take care of Nian Nian temporarily on the grounds that he did not have a suitable and safe container to receive Nian Nian's consciousness. The twins, Walton and Dr. Jiang analyzed together and concluded that Nian Nian's consciousness was very likely. It’s being locked up in the game world.

Nick leaned back relaxedly, put his arms on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, looked up at the painted ceiling, his eyes seemed to penetrate the thick stone ceiling:

"Then next, we can destroy the Papal State."
