The neon lights of the buildings in the far distance merge into the sea of stars in the false sky. The dense traffic running around the clock is like the blood vessels of this city. The never-sleeping street lamp riders downstairs delineate a field of light several meters thick.
The radiance is brilliant and the rouge is thick. The remnants of the old era who do not want to end dress themselves up as the future. The shadows wantonly suck the desires revealed in the city. Every corner seems to be a monster waiting to be devoured. Countless people are buried composed of alcohol and cigarettes.
of the fallen.
Ya Xiu and An Nan leaned on the window sill and looked at each other. Half of their bodies were illuminated by the lights in the room, while the other half was soaked in the darkness of the city. Their eyes flickered, reflecting each other's ambiguity.
"Fortunately, Igula reminded me, you don't want to renew the contract through a verbal contract, right?" Ash crossed his arms to express his refusal: "If I agree, will the 101-day slave contract be automatically renewed forever?
"
"How is that possible?" An Nan shook his head: "Although I have some authority in the gospel, the contract time limit can only be extended to December 31, 2100 at most."
"Isn't that more than five hundred years!?" Ash retreated: "The Gospel Kingdom may be gone by then. Your family's descendants found my tomb in the apocalyptic wasteland and shouted "Ash Hiss complied with the call of the contract."
, then I have to crawl out of hell and continue to be a blue dog for hundreds of years!?"
"How is it possible? No matter how powerful the contract is, it can't kill someone." An Nan shook his head: "Unless I ask Harvey to help you transform into an undead, then Ash, you can be the heirloom of our Duolan family. Tsk.
,Damn Igula, ruined my good deeds."
"Thank you Igulla for not letting us meet a bad woman and for saving us from evil."
Seeing the dissatisfaction on An Nan's face as her plot was thwarted, Ya Xiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He suddenly heard An Nan's confession of "I will support you". Although he couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy in his heart - in fact, it was more than a little, but he only allowed himself to have a little - but after the return of rationality, he felt a little painful.
His relationship with An Nan is abnormal.
If it hadn't been for An Nan, he would have escaped with Liz now. Even if Liz wanted him to save the princess in the tower, he would not have taken the risk with Liz. It was An Nan who insisted on executing the plan to assassinate the princess, so they
Only then will he stay in the underground city.
In other words, from the beginning, An Nan wanted to blaspheme the gospel and deceive the weaving festival, so everyone was running around like rats crossing the street with the gospel. Ash himself just wanted to find a place to send a substitute to work, take care of Liz during the day, and follow him at night
The Sword Princess and the Witch are adventuring in the virtual world.
With the help of "Aurora's Magician's Manual", Ash felt that it was only a matter of time before he became a legendary magician. There was no need to go out and take risks, he could just keep going.
However, he is still a slave under An Nan's control. He cannot resist all orders of An Nan, so he has to follow her until his death. If An Nan really likes him, if he is really with An Nan, this is not
Is it like the hostage syndrome of falling in love with a kidnapper?
However, the general plot is that the kidnapped female protagonist likes the male protagonist, and when it is his turn, it is a bit the other way around...
Fortunately, An Nan is a bad woman. Fortunately, An Nan is just a bad woman.
Ash changed the subject: "By the way, I have already thought about my wish."
"What is your wish?" An Nan asked curiously: "Can you strengthen your substitute magic spirit into a super servant with full attributes and complete everything for you?"
"...This is my secondary wish. If the wish capacity is left, I must ask you to help me make the wish. By the way, I will add another appearance and gender that I can freely set up as a substitute." Although Ash was very moved, he still told Li
Si's promise to keep: "My first wish is to cancel "The List of Undestined People" forever."
"Ah?" An Nan was startled: "Cancel the gospel list?"
"That's right." Ash nodded, with excuses brewing in his throat.
However, An Nan was silent for a moment and did not ask him the reason for this wish. He nodded directly: "As long as I obtain the wish of the God Lord, I guarantee that your wish will come true."
Ash breathed a sigh of relief. The mission was completed tonight. He revealed the situation of the Panji to An Nan. In addition to not wanting them to cause tragedy because of this concealment, he also wanted to use this favor to make An Nan pay attention to his wishes. Be careful.
Machine plan pass!
He relaxed and asked with a smile: "Then what are you going to do after the weaving ceremony? Is it that you wish to become an angel and leave reality directly?"
"My wish will not change my strength." An Nan shook his head: "If I am lucky enough to get the wish of the God Lord and survive the weaving ceremony safely..."
She was silent for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter and said: "How silly, the weaving ceremony hasn't even ended yet, what's the point of thinking about the future at this time... Maybe we will die in the palace in a few days."
"It is precisely because we may die in the palace that we should think about our future life now." Ya Xiu said seriously: "If we really die, then at least we can live the rest of our lives in fantasy.
; If we are not dead, then this fantasy is to inspire our courage, and maybe a miracle will happen."
"'The future' is the greatest hope. Once you have a future you want to go to, no mountain of swords or sea of fire can stop you." He smiled: "In this sense, thinking about the rest of your life is actually carrying out your own weaving ceremony - weaving your own future.
, and then go and make it happen.”
An Nan was startled: "Weaving ceremony...?"
She stroked her earrings silently and suddenly asked: "Do you think the knitting festival is a good thing?"
"Huh?" Ash thought for a moment: "To be honest, things like the Weaving Ceremony are 'natural forces' that can guide the social atmosphere and even affect the development of magic. It would be too naive to evaluate it in terms of good or bad, just like evaluating whether the sun is a good person or not.
Bad guy...but if I have to say it, it should be a good thing."
"Using the list to predict future national development, technological revolution, and key talents, all of this can ensure that the gospel will only develop better and faster, and will almost never regress and stagnate. If this knitting festival hadn't predicted the end of the world,
Disaster, I even doubt that I can see that the future of the gospel is the stars and the sea."
"But what about the Echoers?" An Nan said: "Is it really good for them to know a destined future in advance?"
"It depends on the situation. If the future is exactly what you want, that is a good thing; if the future is completely opposite to what you want in your heart, then it will be more uncomfortable." Ya Xiu spread his hands: "But it is impossible to have everything go as you wish in life. Buffet
There are also terrible meals.”
"I don't think so. No matter whether the future meets my expectations or not, I don't think it is a good thing." An Nan said: "For example, if the Knitting Festival tells me that I will stay with you forever, no matter whether I have a good impression of you or not,
I would feel very uncomfortable.”
"I won't mention it if I don't like you. Even if I really like you, I will still be thinking: Do I have to be bound to you in the future? I can't leave, I can't change, I can't choose another one.
Life?"
"Being denied by the future will make people uncomfortable, but being affirmed by the future will also bring pressure." An Nan looked at his hands: "After all, why isn't our future in our hands?"
"You have been at the Gospel for so many days. I am actually very curious about your views on the Gospel." An Nan turned to look at Ashi: "As a person from a foreign land, do you think the Gospel is good? The omniscient Weaver sent the Gospel,
Is it really because you deeply love the world?"
Ash thought in silence for a while, then asked: "Do you know the social system of the Blood Moon Kingdom?"
"You know, the Bloodline Prohibition Law, the Blood Moon Trial, the Blood Saint Clan and the Moon Shadow Clan, all of them grew up in foster homes, and biological modification is rampant." An Nan sighed: "It's simply barbarism disguised as civilization.
Jungle...I'm sorry, I apologize if I offended."
"No, you summarized it very accurately. The Kingdom of Blood Moon is a breeding ground carefully raised by the Lord of Blood Moon." Ashi said: "In my opinion, the essence of the Gospel and Blood Moon are the same."
"Ah?" An Nan was startled: "Although I am criticizing the omniscient Weaver, the omniscient Weaver's crime does not end there..."
"Although the social systems and humanities are very different, the foundations of the two countries are derived from the will of the God Lord." Ya Xiu said: "The God Lord promulgated the rules, so all living beings can only survive according to the rules. This rule can be "Bloodline"
"Prohibition Law" can also be a gospel system."
"The Divine Lord does not like or hate the world, not even the Blood Moon Lord. Although the Blood Saint Yueying is the ruling class, it is not due to the preference of the Blood Moon Lord, but is based on the "Bloodline Prohibition Law". In
In a world where blood is prohibited, only the selfish and self-loving Immortals can maximize their advantages. Just like flies are the dominant race in the toilet, you can't say that the toilet favors flies, right? Just change the country, and these few Immortals will be the dominant species.
They will be quickly persecuted by the short-lived breeder group and become anonymous."
An Nan murmured: "So do you think that the Lord of God doesn't care about the world?"
"No." Ash shook his head: "Although they neither love nor hate them deeply, they care about the world. Otherwise, where would there be the Blood Moon Kingdom and the Gospel Kingdom? But they don't care about one or two.
Not an era, but all people from the birth of the kingdom to the present.”
"If I have to say it, it is wrong for you to hope that the Lord of God will love the world deeply. Now the Lord of God's impartial and non-interfering attitude is correct."
"Why?"
"Because love is a gift," Ash glanced at her: "Are the people of the world qualified to respond to the love of the Lord of God? They will only drown in love. Just like Brahma Mula, the leader of the Six-Emblem Clan loves his people deeply without reservation, and as a result
It’s just that everyone is drunk and dreaming.”
"That's not necessarily true, right?" An Nan couldn't help but say: "In some ancient myths, some races favored by the God Lord mastered the magic arts of silver and even gold realms from birth——"
"Do you still remember the 'Evangelist' and 'Silent Magician' you told me about?" Ash smiled.
An Nan was startled, and immediately understood what Ash meant. A 'Gospel Magician' is a magician who asks for the gospel when encountering a faction problem. A 'Silent Magician' is a magician who never asks for the gospel and relies on his own tradition to break through magic factions.
Magician.
In the Evangelical Kingdom, 'Evangelical Magicians' are the mainstream of first-wing magicians, but by the time 70% of second-wing magicians are 'silent magicians', all magicians in the Holy Domain are 'silent magicians'.
"In the magician evaluation system, the love of the God Lord for the ethnic group will only lead to the degradation of the ethnic group." Ya Xiu said: "Because magic is not money, resources, production materials and other external objects that can grow automatically, but must be studied and pursued by oneself.
A lifetime of knowledge. If the God Lord helps the magician in the magic faction, he will instead reduce the magician's potential and corrode the magician's knowledge base."
"At this point, the Omniscient Weaver is actually too 'doting' on you. So do you think the Omniscient Weaver is right or wrong to do this? Looking at the "Bloodline Prohibition Law" on the other hand, don't you think the Blood Moon is extremely
The Lord is trying to create a high-intensity competitive environment that is fair for everyone, so that people can go further in their journey as magicians. Do you think the Blood Moon Master is right or wrong in doing this?"
Ash paused: "Of course, this is only in the magician's evaluation system. If we talk about the happiness of residents, then the Blood Moon Master is only worthy of licking the little toes of the omniscient Weaver——"
An Nan directly covered Yaxiu's mouth and hissed: "Don't arrange the Lord of God like this."
Ash nodded and continued: "So it is not that the Lord of God loves the world deeply, but that the world loves the Lord of God deeply. It is the people of the world who project their feelings onto the Lord of God, so they feel that the Lord of God loves them deeply."
"When you ask the omniscient Weaver whether he loves the world deeply, in fact, what you doubt is not his attitude, but whether he is correct." He laughed: "You just think that he did something wrong, so you no longer love him.
, and therefore feel that He does not love the world.”
An Nan looked at Ya Xiu blankly, and suddenly said: "You really are the leader of a cult. I thought Igula was deliberately trying to smear you."
"Your opinion is correct, he just deliberately smeared me." Ya Xiu said angrily: "How do I look like the leader of a cult?"
"It's like everywhere."
"Give me an example! Those on the future list will not count!"
"You have an example in front of you." An Nan smiled and said, "I was successfully bewitched by you."
She touched her earrings: "I will weave the rest of my life well."
"Then I'll go back first."
"I send you."
An Nan walked with Ya Xiu to the door and reached out to hold the door handle, but did not push the door open.
Ash waited for a moment and asked strangely: "What's wrong? Can't you turn it away?"
"Ash, do you hate me?"
Ash was startled.
"It must be hate." Zi Fei Moth turned her back to him and said softly to the door: "If I hadn't captured you in front of the virtual passage, if Crolis and I hadn't intimidated you, you wouldn't have done it at all.
I will be involved in the whirlpool of the Weaving Ceremony, and maybe now I will have a foothold in Azura and live a peaceful and happy life."
"Although I have always said that I will treat you as equals, that is just self-satisfied arrogance. You are all restricted by the contract, and we can never be equal in terms of status, let alone that I want you to participate in this almost suicidal action -
—Harvey should be thinking about how to get revenge on me after this is over, right?"
"Although I have some unavoidable difficulties, what does my difficulty have to do with you? The purple moth is destined to fly into the fire, but it still burns with you."
"Your first reaction is, 'Is this bad woman An Nan trying to lie to me again?' I deserve it."
"but."
An Nan turned to look at Yaxiu, his green pupils shining.
"In a few days, the first half of my life will be over." There was some dissociated vibrato in her voice: "We may all die."
Only then did Ash realize that she was scared.
In other words, besides Harvey, who wouldn’t be afraid during the funeral? It’s just that Igura never exposed his fear, and he has experienced too many life-and-death adventures; Liz completely relied on Ash, and used
Trust covers his fear; and Ash...
In the past few days, he has been thinking about weaving his life after the festival. He used hope to resist fear, Liz to resist fear, and Igula to resist fear.
An Nan is different from the escaped convicts. Her previous adventures were all backed by a bandit. After work, she also relied on the God's perspective of the gospel to run amok. This blasphemy against the gospel project was the most risky move in her life.
; Assassinating the princess is a huge gamble that she has never experienced before.
But she can't show any fear in front of others. This is her responsibility as a leader.
Only now did she take off all disguises and reveal the softer side of her female boss.
"The question I just asked is also the answer I knitted." Zi Fei Moth looked at the cult leader intently: "I'll ask you again."
"Will you weave the future with me?"
This time I'm not joking.
She is serious.
There's no way to get through it.
Ash looked at this pretty face that was both angry and happy, bold yet a little shy, with eyes full of expectation, and felt a little lost for a moment.
To be honest, he really couldn't think of a reason for his refusal. Although she was not the ultimate rich woman like Evelin, compared to Ya Xiu who was going to pick up a cardboard box and sleep under the overpass, An Nan, who lived on the flat floor, was already rich.
Enough to meet his daily needs.
Not to mention that Ash still has Liz as a dragster, so Igu La and An Nan are willing to support them. In fact, Ash just casually talked to I Gu La, and when Liz settles down in life, he will also find a way to make money.
With a little money, it's impossible to really let Igula support him.
But An Nan's promise is that there will be no discounts and after-sales service! Anyway, the lust has been betrayed, and Yaxiu can feel free to call the rich woman his meal!
So does he like An Nan? First of all, An Nan is on the "Azura Beauty List", and her looks and figure are not comparable to a 0-star waste like Yaxiu; secondly, he stays with An Nan
It was very relaxed when we were together, it felt like we were childhood sweethearts who had been together since childhood, and there was no barrier between us.
If you like it, you will definitely like it, and your married life will definitely be very happy.
However, however.
Ash closed his eyes, and images of many people flashed through his mind, including parents, brothers, Veela, and red hair...
He opened his eyes and looked at the other person seriously. Seeing the tenderness flowing in his eyes, Zi Moth immediately understood something.
"I……"
"Wait a minute, I want to draw a portrait for you."
