Two-dimensional Wanderer

There was a black line on William's head, and he pulled the corner of his mouth and asked, "How did you become like this? The Black Candle Lord who fought with me should have flesh and blood. What about the part below your neck?"

Hei Zhugong immediately replied angrily: "Hey, isn't it you who destroyed my body? When I woke up, I was left with a head, and I was surprised too! What's even sadder is that After that, I will continue to provide power to the floating continent, and there is no time to reply."

"So, you built this paradise in the sky?" William asked.

"To be precise, Lord Black Candle will provide the power, and I will provide the technology." The great sage replied: "No way, the seventeen beasts are dangerous enemies for both the human me and the Earth God. , In order to escape from the ground, we can only join forces temporarily."

William nodded in understanding.

The great sage then asked: "Then do you want to take back the ground?"

"Huh?" William was stunned: "Recapture the ground... Do we have this ability?"

"In the past, it was only me and Duke Heizhu. It was really lacking, but now you are here too." The great sage said: "Although you are an enterprising guy regardless of your personality, character, nature, or essence, But the ability is trustworthy and can be said to be an indispensable part of our plan!"

William twitched the corners of his mouth: "Thanks to your fancy, I am really honored."

"This is not a joke, the sword ghost of black onyx." The great sage said solemnly: "You were the only brave man who could independently adjust and maintain the holy sword. This skill can completely make those who cannot be scrapped. The holy sword used is returning to the battlefield! This is a big improvement. If we gather all the combat power of the Floating Continent and launch an attack on the ground in one fell swoop, we are not without a chance of winning... No, the chance of winning is quite good!"

Xiaona ate the biscuits and said, "It turns out that William is a life skill player, and the master blacksmith is okay."

William smiled bitterly: "Even if there are holy swords, but human beings are already extinct, where do you go to find heroes who use these holy swords?"

"Golden fairy! As for the fairy, there are as many as you want, so the number of holy swords is the key to determining the combat power!"

"Oh? So you said that the golden fairy came from your hand?" William felt an inexplicable pain in his heart when he remembered the scene where Codori claimed to be a "special weapon".He frowned and said displeasedly: "Swan, treat life as a consumable, this is not what a brave man should do!"

"Ah, that..." The great sage was at a loss for words.

"In fact, those golden fairies are not life." Heizhugong suddenly said: "They are the product of the combination of my god's soul fragments and the necromantic magic of the great sage, and they are the same dead as the skeleton soldiers, just because Affected by the fragments of my god's soul, I developed a bit of consciousness, and it became a bit like a human being."

"boom!"

William slapped the table heavily, got up and said, "It's not a bit human, they cry and laugh, and everyone has their own preferences. If this isn't life, what is?"

"But you should also know that they do not have the concept of death. If it is a living body, this is a completely impossible situation." Hei Zhugong said: "The golden fairy who does not know what death is can open the fairy without hesitation. The Gate blew itself up with magic power, and it is an idealized mass-produced weapon. They were skeleton soldiers from the beginning, but they were only covered in blood and flesh. You humans are used to evaluating the world with your eyes, so it is unacceptable."

The great sage went on to say: "Golden fairies have a very short lifespan, and if they use their magic power excessively in battle, they will awaken the soul fragments of the star gods and cause their personalities to collapse. In order to avoid unforeseen consequences, let them be properly The self-destruction of time has become a necessary measure. I admit that this is a bit cruel, but in order to save the world, it is also a tacit sacrifice."

"Crash!" William overturned the table and punched the great sage in the face.

Yingluo grabbed her teacup in time, and Xiaona also picked up a plate with snacks.

"Do you even know what you're talking about?" William gritted his teeth and shouted, "Did 500 years kill your humanity?"

The great sage wiped the corners of his mouth and slowly stood up from the ground.

Hei Zhugong said: "This is also impossible. After all, except for the golden fairy, no one can use the holy sword."

"But holy swords are used to protect existences, don't use them for territorial expansion!"

"But no one knows how long the Floating Continent can last." The great sage said: "We still have to return to the ground after all!"

"Whose ground are you going to return to?" William asked back: "For the demihumans now, the floating continent is their homeland, and the ground is just a symbol and a name. I plan to go back to the ground with all my heart. Isn't it better to think about how to make the floating continent last longer?"

"But... won't you be unwilling?" The great sage clenched his fists and said in a trembling voice: "Our family, our friends, all our efforts and efforts have been destroyed by the seventeen beasts. , don't you want to take back everything you lost?"

"Of course I think, of course I'm not reconciled!" William sighed, put his hand on the shoulder of the great sage, and said helplessly: "If giving my life to regain the ground, I can fight to death without hesitation. .But Swan, hatred is not the reason for our reckless actions, even if you take back the ground, are there relatives who can say 'welcome back' to you? No, there is nothing, just a desolate land. For the sake of This will tie the entire demi-human race to your chariot, do you know how many people will die?"

"I……"

"The meaning of the brave is to protect, not to protect human beings, but to protect everything that is beautiful." William said seriously: "There is no need for demihumans to take their lives for the hatred of human beings, and the golden fairies may just be skeleton soldiers clothed in flesh and blood. . But anyway, the beauty they show is real, and that's what I want to protect!"

The great sage wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Lord Black Candle.

"Give up, this person's stubbornness, I have seen it as early as 500 years ago when he surpassed the limit and cast seven forbidden spells on me in a row. As long as you choose something to protect, no one will be able to change him. "

The great sage was silent for a while, looked at William and said, "So compared to humans, do you choose those golden fairies who live and die?"

"I didn't choose the golden fairy, but the future." William shook his head: "Humanity is already in the past."

"Humanity will not be the past!" The great sage shouted: "I will not change my mind!"

"It's a coincidence, so am I," William replied, "so I'll protect those girls!"

"Stupid people!"

"Maybe, but I have a clear conscience!"

The reunion of former friends has become full of gunpowder, and the partners who fought together for the same goal 500 years ago have differences at this moment.One of them chooses to guard the past, and the other chooses to guard the future. Both sides have their own reasons, and it seems that they can't tell the difference between right and wrong, and this is the greatest tragedy.

"Human beings are always full of contradictions." Xiaona nodded with her arms crossed.Born a god, she still can't understand the helplessness of human beings, but Yingluo, who was once a mortal, understands this entanglement.

"Let's get down to business, whether it's the past or the future, the most important thing is to grasp the present." Ying Luo said, "Before you decide what to do, at least you need to understand the ins and outs of things. Be quiet now, and I will tell you the truth of everything. !"

Chapter 29 The Obsolete Abyss

Yingluo told Duke Heizhu and the Great Sage everything, including the relationship between the Star God, Human, and Abyss, the origin of the Seventeen Beasts and the disturbance of the Void Sea, which really shocked them both.

Hei Zhugong said: "So, it is my god who foresees this future, and will come to destroy mankind from afar?"

"Exactly." Yingluo replied: "As a galaxy-level god, you can somewhat sense his own ending. Star god just knew that he would fall into the hands of humans, and then decided to strike first. But unfortunately, she only I saw the beginning, but I didn't see the end. This incident was the disturbance of the Void Sea from the very beginning, and from the moment she decided to go to this planet, it has already reached its doomed ending."

The great sage clenched his fists: "In other words, the reason why humans and star gods are in this situation today is that the Void Sea is behind the scenes?"

"It's not very accurate to say that it's troublesome." Yingluo shrugged: "In fact, the Void Sea has no personality and consciousness, it is just a rule, like a machine, its role is to maintain the balance between order and chaos. Your Races that cross the red line will naturally be 'reduced', even if there is no war between humans and Star Gods, there may be other things, and the reason why you two are put together is probably just to save trouble."

"Take it easy..." The great sage's face darkened: "This is really irritating."

"Although it doesn't sound good, it's the truth." Ying Luo spread his hands and said: "Although the Void Sea has no consciousness, it is the existence of the highest rank. To deal with a mortal race and a galaxy-level god, to be honest, it couldn't be easier."

"Isn't there any way?" The great sage asked unwillingly.

"I said this to William as well." Yinluo replied: "You really can't do anything about it, but we have. I originally planned to exchange this information for the gods' residency on this planet. After all, you are also considered The official leader of the Floating Continent. But now that we have decided to leave, this information is taken as our accommodation fee for the past few days."

Of course, the great sage knows everything about the Aibis commercial country, but he is more concerned with the plan to retake the ground, so he has never paid much attention to the demihuman race.Hearing that Ying Luo and the others were about to leave, he hurriedly said, "If Aibis offends you, I promise to punish them..."

"No need. They haven't been able to offend us yet, and the boar named Paul has paid the price. He was infected by the abyss in a few days." Yinluo said: "We left just because we wanted to leave, gods. I've been on this planet for a long time. By the way, don't go to the human ruins that Paul discovered. It is estimated that there are abyss residues hidden in it. This matter should have been taken by us, but the war is imminent. Let's talk about it when it's over."

"Yes!" The great sage nodded seriously. Although he didn't care too much about the life and death of demihumans, he didn't want another lunatic like Paul to appear.

"I take the liberty to ask, what is the number of the relic provided by Paul...?"

"I think about it, it's like a K-96MAL."

The great sage was taken aback and looked at William.

William: "?"

"Gemagu." The great sage said: "There used to be the ancient city of Gema in the empire."

William's expression changed immediately.

"Is there any problem?" Xiaona asked strangely: "Look at your regretful expression of 'you want to buy something delicious but you don't have any money in your pocket', shouldn't that be your hometown?"

William smiled bitterly: "I'm really sorry, it's really my... hometown!"

"Wow!" Xiaona opened her mouth wide, and then said to Yingluo excitedly: "I've improved, and I will answer!"

"Progress, you bastard!" Yingluo replied angrily, "You blind cat meets a dead mouse."

"If I remember correctly, an investigation team of the wing guards should have been dispatched there." The great sage continued: "And just received a notice not long ago that they encountered a large number of beasts and the airship was damaged. Urgent support is needed.”

"Encountered a large number of beasts or just damaged airships?" Xiaona clearly knew the combat power of beasts, and said in disbelief: "No matter how you think, it is normal that the entire army is wiped out."

"Because I sent two holy swords to follow." The great sage said: "Even if they sacrifice their lives, they must come in handy for me!"

Such cold words made William frown, and the great sage did not flinch.

"Swan, you've changed."

"If the ground can be recaptured, what's wrong with the change?" The great sage sighed softly: "Don't worry, the rescue transport boat is already being rebuilt, and it will be ready to set off in about a month."

"One month?" William said displeasedly: "Every day the rescue is delayed, one more person may die. Do you understand?"

"Of course I understand!" the great sage said loudly: "But several holy swords that can still be used have been excavated from the ruins. They will greatly improve our combat power and must be brought back!"

"In your eyes, is the holy sword more important than human life?"

"Yes! The holy sword is the only hope to regain the ground. For this goal, everyone is ready to sacrifice, including myself!" The great sage snapped: "It is precisely because you refuse to repair the damaged holy sword. Sword, so the holy sword that you can still use becomes extremely precious. Or did you change your mind?"

"You bastard!" William gritted his teeth, of course he couldn't change his mind.If you help to repair the holy sword, of course, the people on the ground can come back earlier, but if you have enough holy swords, you will naturally drag the entire floating continent into war, and there will be countless people who died by then.

The great sage looked disappointed: "You are both a coward and a traitor. You go, you are not welcome here!"

William clenched his fists and tried to speak, but couldn't say anything.It is undoubtedly a coward to give up hatred, and it is indeed a traitor to abandon human beings and choose a golden fairy. Facing the accusations of his friends, he cannot refute.

"I will protect those girls." William whispered, "I hope you and I don't become enemies."

Only the Great Sage and Hei Zhugong were left in the room.After being silent for a long time, Black Candle said publicly: "If you don't want to be disturbed by William, it's best to deprive him of his position as the administrator of the goblin warehouse and expel him from the army, right? That's just a matter of your words, why not? Then do?"

The great sage looked at the distant airship and was silent for a long time: "After all, he is someone I once regarded as a big brother. If possible... I don't want him to hate me more."

"Is that so." Lord Black Candle said, "You brave people... it's really hard to understand."

On the apron of No. 68, William stood there motionless with a hesitant expression on his face.

"Hey, why are you in a daze? Let's go!" Xiaona asked in confusion.

William shook his head and asked Yingluo, "My lord, did I teach Kodori the correct way to use the holy sword, which caused her excessive consumption of magic power to cause the awakening of the Star God Soul Fragment?"

Yingluo shrugged: "Being able to ask such a question proves that you already have the answer, doesn't it?"

William smiled bitterly: "Are you doing bad things with good intentions again? 500 years ago, I wanted to protect everyone, but they turned into beasts; 500 years later, I wanted to protect Cordoli, but she almost broke her personality. I like this Is the person really suitable to be a hero? Am I really qualified to come back here?"

Xiaona nodded in agreement: "Well, if you say that, you are really demented."

The girl's words were too sincere, and one sentence almost made William cry.

Yingluo coughed a few times, patted William on the shoulder and said: "It is undeniable that you are quite unlucky. I don't know if you can be a hero, but whether you are qualified to come back here is not up to you and me. Look ahead. Well, someone has come to pick you up, hasn't it?"

William turned his head and saw that Nigran was standing not far away with the children, and it was Kodori at the front.

The long blue hair fluttered in the wind, and the pure white skirt was extremely pure.The girl saw William's beautiful smile, and the children shouted William's name aloud.

This is definitely not some damn skeleton soldier, even if they can't understand the meaning of death, they are definitely not the dead that can be consumed at will!

Yingluo gave a slight push, and William took a step.

He came to Kodori and whispered, "I'm back."

Ke Duoli responded with a smile: "Well, welcome back!"

Simple, but extremely happy, this is the beauty that needs to be protected, William has never been so sure.
