Human, am I evil?

If it's just a simple demon god residue or something else, she can go to the scientific research department of the fools, and those people's research ability is no better than Di Ruiji.

She found that the things this time were much more dangerous than the residue of the demon god, so she ran to find Di Ruiji at the risk of being beaten, and you gave such an answer?

"Do you think I know everything? If you want to find a knowledgeable person, you should be Liyue looking for the Rock God, not me. Although I ran into the abyss, I don't know much about the abyss."

What's inside the abyss, only the guy named Dyensreb knows.

The most Di Ruiji can do is to absorb the power of the abyss, as if the power of the abyss is eroding people, other than that, she can't do anything.

"Can you get rid of these toxins? That's good, then I won't gain anything from coming here this time."

Di Ruiji looked at Astaro in confusion, was she worried that this kind of thing would affect the people of the Winter Kingdom?It shouldn't be. Although these things are dangerous, they can also be used as a means to enhance one's own strength.

Haven't the Fools been looking for ways to improve their strength other than the Eye of God?Even dangerous substances such as the residue of the demon god have been used. Can't we take these things back and study them?

Thinking of this, Di Ruiji put his hands on his chin and said, "Are you worried? The Ice Queen. What is there to worry about? Even if this kind of thing breaks out in the Kingdom of Winter like a plague? Why don't you just die? Several percent of the population. With the ability of a crowd of fools, maybe it can be studied and understood during this period of time, and maybe it will become a new force in the end."

"This is a way to increase the strength of the Fools, why stop it? Just like what the Fools usually do, wouldn't it be enough to use people from the Winter Kingdom for experiments?"

"Wait a minute, is it possible that in your eyes, the lives of the people of Zhidong Kingdom are their lives, and the lives of people from other countries are not their lives?"

Suddenly thought of something, Di Ruiji said with a hint of sarcasm.

"I know what you want to say, Di Ruiji. I also know what the fools have done in other countries, but these are all sacrifices that must be made to fight against the law of heaven."

“[Sacrifice]? It’s really a great statement. Since it’s so great, why don’t fools use people from the Winter Kingdom as experiments? Why go to other countries to defraud, abduct, and kidnap people from other countries? children as test subjects?"

Di Ruiji clapped her hands again, and she reproduced the scene she saw at the research base of [Doctor] that day. Those kidnapped children were kept in cages like animals, and they were not treated as human beings at all.

"Is this what you call [sacrifice]? Treat these children like objects, let them lose their parents, let them lose everything they have, is this what you call [sacrifice]? What a high-sounding sentence."

"During the time I traveled to Mond and Liyue, I met many people. Among them were the Qianyan Army who fought against monsters to the last moment alone in order to protect others, and there were adventurers who took risks for others. What people do is worthy of the word [sacrifice], what kind of [sacrifice] are these children captured by fools as experiments?"

The Ice Queen didn't answer, she just sat in silence with her head lowered with an ugly face.

She couldn't refute Di Ruiji's words, because she knew that the other party was right, but she needed a reason, a reason to appease herself.

If it was possible, she would not want to do that, and she also hoped that the Fools would just be an institution to protect the Kingdom of Winter, but the laws of heaven were so terrible that she had to master stronger power to fight against her.

The tragedy of the original Kingdom of Kanria is still vivid in my mind. Although she and the other seven gods brought down that disaster together, it was under the arrangement of heaven, even if she didn't want to.

Demon gods love people, no matter which god they are, no matter how inconspicuous they appear, they all care about their own children and human beings.

But that time they passively wiped out all the people in the Kingdom of Kanria, because the Kingdom of Kanria did not trust the Seven Gods and built a powerful country through their own efforts. This is not allowed by the laws of heaven. agree.

Therefore, Tianli punished the Kingdom of Kanria, and cooperated with the Seven Gods to completely destroy the Kingdom of Kanria, making this country disappear into the dust of history as if it had never appeared before.

Astaru, I don't want this kind of thing to happen in my own country, but the development of the Kingdom of Winter has been similar to that of Kanria. force device.

In time, more and stronger weapons will definitely be developed. If by that time, the laws of heaven do not allow it, then what happened in the Kingdom of Kanria will happen in the Kingdom of Winter?

She doesn't allow it, she absolutely doesn't allow this kind of thing to happen in Zhidong Kingdom, so before Tianli crusades against her, she must first crusade against her.

In order to fight against the law of heaven, she needs stronger power. In the process of obtaining stronger power, it doesn't matter even if her hands are covered with blood, even if she is spurned by others, even if she is cursed by everyone.

She will admit at the end that she let the people of the Winter Kingdom do all of this, and she will bear all the crimes, even if she is smashed to pieces in the end, it doesn't matter.

But before she is judged, the law of heaven must be wiped out. If she is not wiped out, Zhidong Kingdom will have no future.

Even, this Tivat continent has no future.

Volume 168: [-]: Familiar Feelings

"Okay, don't be angry. She has told you so many things, so you should understand her actions more or less."

"Understand? Can't understand. She could choose other ways to achieve this goal, but she chose the worst one. No matter what her goal is, I can't accept it."

Astaru's purpose is indeed good, but the way she protects her own people is by sacrificing the people of other countries?She couldn't accept it.

In her view, Astaru seemed to be doing a multiple-choice question, choosing to sacrifice her own people or choosing to sacrifice the people of other countries. She chose the latter and chose to sacrifice more people.

Why?Because those people have nothing to do with her, even if she feels ashamed, they are not her people after all, so it is still within the acceptable range.

Will she accept all the sins at the end?It sounds good, so that those who lost their lives because of fools can come back?Will they be able to rest in peace?

No!There are still a lot of children who are being experimented by the Fools. They are imprisoned in the experimental bases set up by the Fools in various places. No one will care about their wailing, and they will die without waiting for someone to save them.

Unacceptable, Di Ruiji can't accept such a thing, those children are living beings!

They should be like the children of Mond or Liyue, playing happily with children of the same age on the street, and they should go to school with other children to learn knowledge and become useful people in the future.

They obviously have so many bright and dazzling futures, but have they been overshadowed by Astaru's words "these are necessary sacrifices"?What a joke.

"No matter what she says, I will not change my actions. I will stop all the plans of fools, and I will kill all executives who do not value life. For those who do not value life, I... Not Di Ruiji, but [Black Plague]!"

Even if she has changed a lot, this identity will not change, but she will not use this power at will, she will use it to protect the people she cherishes, to hurt those who do not cherish life, to hurt those wicked people who hurt others .

Wendy showed a helpless smile. She didn't continue talking. Everyone can see what the Fools have done. Di Ruiji also became so hostile to them after witnessing the countless viciousness of the Fools.

Forget it, as long as she doesn't take the behavior of driving around in the state of [Black Plague] in the Winter Kingdom, Wendy can still accept it. This is her last tenderness, and it's not appropriate to go any further.

"Okay, okay. There's nothing more to say, let's go back quickly. Qin and the others should be waiting for us. If we don't go back, she will probably talk about us again."

Wendy, who didn't want to continue this topic, took Di Ruiji's hand and bid farewell to this long-lost place.

"Come back to see these little guys when you have time later, let Ying feel at ease before talking about it. If you don't go soon, she will probably misunderstand again."

"Misunderstand what?" Letting Wendy hold her hand, Di Ruiji followed behind, and said, "What do you think she misunderstood? Wendy."

"Ah... It seems that there is no misunderstanding about anything."

Misunderstand the relationship between them?But they are already in that kind of relationship, so there is nothing to misunderstand.

At most, they thought that she broke the promise and found a place where no one was around to post with Di Ruiji, but before she came to Astaro, she did post with Di Ruiji, and she also broke the promise.

"Well, there's nothing wrong. But you don't want her to wait too long for us, do you? Let's meet her quickly."

"...Um."

No matter what, I'd better meet some guys who I like first, so that I can dilute the unhappiness caused by Astaro just now.

She said to go back quickly, but Wendy did not use the power of the wind to move quickly, but walked back little by little in the way of ordinary people, and did not return to Mond City until it was completely dark, and saw a face A dissatisfied Ying.

"It's so late, the person you are going to meet, told you so much?"

"No way, they did other things besides chatting, so it took a little more time, please be considerate."

"Hmm~"

Ying snorted softly, looked at their expressions carefully, and found nothing unusual, then slowly let go of her guard and checked Di Ruiji for any remaining traces.

The remaining traces?It refers to the neck area. If they really did something, it is easy for things that don't usually appear in this area.

"You seem to have something to do. Could it be that you are entrusted by the Adventurer's Association and are going to investigate something?"

"It is indeed a commission from the Adventurer's Association, but you don't need to go outside the city, you can complete the commission in the city."

All they have to do this time is a very simple commission, to go to a certain place to check on each other's situation.

According to the records of the Adventurers Association, there was only a little girl left in that family. Her parents were both members of the West Wind Knights, but they died during a mission.

For this descendant of the Knights, the members of the Knights take good care of her, and people often bring things to visit her.

But she seems to have locked herself in the house because of her parents' death, doing nothing but eating and drinking as necessary.

This made the knights very worried, but considering that she became like this because of the death of her parents, they didn't want to make each other feel too sad, so they brought something to visit her as much as possible, hoping that she could slowly walk away from the sadness come out.

But recently, when the knights went to the other party's home, they found that the other party did not respond. They thought something happened to her. When they were about to break the door, a note stuck out from the crack of the door, which said to keep her awake for a while. Don't come to her or anything.

It has been a while since the last visit, and the knights were so busy with the Wind Flower Festival that they had to entrust the Adventurers Association, hoping that they could find a suitable person to help check the situation.

After thinking about it again, Ying, the role of Catherine, is very suitable for this task. After all, Ying has taken care of quite a few children. If it is her, there should be a way to establish a good relationship with her.

"Well, let's go and have a look together. After dealing with this matter, let's go to dinner, how about it?"

Before confirming the girl's safety, Wendy couldn't rest assured, and believed that other people felt the same way.

In this way, the group came to a residential area in Mond together, and stopped in front of a house, which was the target location.

This is a two-story house, which is a bit too big for a girl, and I don't know how she lives here alone.

Ying, Shen He, Paimon and Wendy were all thinking about the situation of the girl, but Di Ruiji frowned tightly, wondering if it was her illusion, she always felt that there was something familiar to her in the house.

Since the time is too long, Di Ruiji is not sure whether this feeling is correct, and the details will not be confirmed until he meets the girl.

Ying first knocked on the door politely: "Hello, is this Tina's house? I'm from the Adventurers Association, Ying. Are you there?"

After waiting for a long time, there was no answer from inside the house, which made Ying a little worried that something bad would happen.

"Don't worry, the wind in the house tells me that the people inside are fine. She should be sleeping, or just lying on the bed and not responding to you, don't worry about what happened to her."

Di Ruiji nodded. In her induction, there is still a life reaction in the house. If something really happened to her, then all she can feel is a certain smell.

Hearing the assurance from these two experts, Ying felt a little relieved, as long as she was fine, she didn't want anything to happen to that innocent little girl.

It's just... what to do next?The task of the Adventurer's Association is to let her check the situation of the girl, but she can't get in, how do I check?

But wouldn't it be impolite to enter by force?What should I do if I am treated as a bad guy by a girl?Woohoo~ What should I do?

"Let me try it."

Di Ruiji suddenly said: "Let me call, maybe it will work."

"Di Ruiji? Is it really useful?"

If someone is so determined that they don't want to meet with others, no matter who they are, they won't come to open the door. What does Di Ruiji think?

"I have an idea, and I don't know if it's right, but let me try."

Di Ruiji shook his head, not intending to explain so much, he went directly to the door and knocked.

"I know you can hear my voice, although I have known that you like to stay in one place, but I didn't expect you to hide in bed from the water."

Um?What is she talking about?How do you listen to her, she seems to know this girl, what happened?

Ying and the others looked at each other puzzledly, not knowing exactly what Di Ruiji meant by these words.

"You should have heard the rumors about me, right? Di Ruiji. Or, [Black Plague] Di Ruiji. It's the one you think, the apostle with the blood of evil. I'm not ready to come out and meet me Is it? Old friend."

After finishing speaking, Di Ruiji didn't do anything else, just stood at the door and waited for the development of the situation.

Although it was very faint, everyone heard a very light footstep.

After a while, the door was opened, and a young girl appeared inside, staring at Di Ruiji with azure blue pupils.

"I thought it was just the same name, but I didn't expect you to come to this world too, Di Ruiji."

"I didn't expect you to come here in this form, Rotes."

Volume 169: [-]: Old Friends Who Lose Each Other

Rotes, the eighth apostle [Long-legged] Rotes, who took up several weapons and weapons at the same time, dominated the ocean of the Demon Realm during the Demon Realm.

By controlling the spiritual consciousness of living beings, their actions can be controlled, and at the same time, they have the ability to create illusions, which can kill people invisible.

When he was in hibernation, he was sneak attacked by that woman Herder, and was transported to the temple on the back of the sky-veiled giant beast, away from his most important source of life - the ocean.

In the end, he was wiped out by adventurers just like himself. Now it seems that his soul did not dissipate after death, but came to this world and reincarnated into a little girl named Tina.

Under the relationship of Di Ruiji, Ying and his party entered the house smoothly and watched the exchange of these two old friends.

"When I first heard about the miracle doctor named Di Ruiji, I thought it was just the same name. I didn't expect you to come to this world."

Sitting on the sofa, Tina looked at Di Ruiji who was pouring milk for herself, and couldn't help saying: "At that time, you were a symbol of death. I didn't expect you to save lives one day. Well, this milk is very good , remember to leave some for me when you leave later."

"I also didn't expect to be able to save lives, not in a situation that changed their lives, but in saving them from illness."

Maybe it was because of meeting an acquaintance, Di Ruiji had never heard the smile on his face from the very beginning, especially when he saw this acquaintance turned into what he is now, the smile couldn't be stopped.

"It doesn't matter how much milk you want, but after you become a child, your appetite also becomes a child?"

"Hmph, do you have any objections? Now I am not the [Apostle] Lotos, but Tina who is only eight years old. It is normal that you, an old woman, cannot understand me."

"Eight years old? You really know how to speak, Rotes. Although you have been reincarnated, you have preserved all your memories because of your powerful spiritual power. Now you are just an old man in the skin of a little girl." Just a guy."

"But I still have the body of a little girl, and you are a complete old man, aren't you?"

The tit-for-tat between the words made people frown, but the interaction between them was so cordial, it didn't look like they were arguing at all.
