The news from the Land of Light revived the long-dormant newspaper office in the Weiner Refuge Area, and the explosive news with Lu Li's permission spread in the Weiner Refuge Area.
Even praised.
People are used to missing the good things that have disappeared and passed away in their lives. For example, the Exorcist. The previous generations who never forget the Exorcist have deepened their memory, and because darkness needs light to embellish it, people need the story of The Exorcist to warm them.
A heart numb with cold.
And the efforts of the only exorcist of this era are visible to all.
Many people cannot think about the stakes, but they know the simple formula: The Exorcist represents hope, Lu Li is ready to rebuild the Exorcist, and Lu Li represents hope.
Although this idea is quite naive, as if the appearance of the exorcist will be the time when mankind launches a counterattack - but people are desperate in the darkness because they cannot see the fire that ignites the darkness.
The news that Lu Li has rebuilt the Exorcist has lit up hope in the Weiner Refuge Area, but for the sixth batch of residents who arrived in the Land of Light yesterday, they still need time to coexist with the weirdness.
They are not yet able to face the Twisted and Vine Cultists as calmly as the first five groups of residents, such as taking items from the backs of the six-legged monsters, greeting the Shadowmen, and even having the courage to approach the Wall of Sighs and secretly feed them to the banyan tree guards.
Because they know more and are taught more, they sadly cannot accept weirdness as easily as the ignorant common people.
but……
Valendo stiffly took off the dinner plate from the back of the six-legged monster parked in front of him, and the latter quickly crawled away.
Based on the frequency of their appearance and contact, sooner or later they will adapt to and even get close to each other like the previous batches of residents.
Other lawyers and young nobles who were writing laws in the square also stiffly took off the dinner plates that the six-legged monsters held in front of them, holding them on their backs. The strange things they saw were either terrifying and disgusting, strange and cruel, or dead.
There is no such gentleness as before.
Wow – Wow –
A group of twisted figures wandered past the square with the sound of tidal water. Looking at their backs, Valendo thought of Mr. Matthäus' words of warning before leaving the Wiener refuge area.
"If you want to enjoy the sweet fruits of the world, you must learn to make peace with evil."
But are they really evil?
Although he had only been in the camp for a short time, Valendo saw many scenes of human residents getting close to strange residents. They especially loved the vine cultists entangled with vines or the damp and sticky twisted cultists, but the latter never responded actively.
Because they don't want to pollute them.
"Bad people are not born bad..."
Valendo recalled what Lu Li said yesterday, stopped thinking due to the sound of footsteps, and looked at Wei Lun who was approaching.
"Let's reconcile." He stopped wearing a false smile and said directly.
"Representing the Brotherhood?" Valendo's eyes jumped over his shoulder and fell behind him to look at the people waiting for the results.
"On behalf of myself, I didn't agree with your idea before..." Wei Lun sighed: "Seeing the land of light and realizing the 'ambition' of His Excellency the Exorcist, we suddenly realized how childish our previous behavior was.
He is trying to change this terrible world...and we are still fighting among ourselves, fighting for meaningless power like houses..."
The sunshine washed them pure, and Lu Li gave them new will.
From now on, they will abide by Sir Lu Li's wishes before their thoughts change.
"We hope you can join the Brotherhood." Willen extended his palm to Valendo.
After a moment's pause, Valendo reached out and held it: "Forget about joining the Brotherhood for now, I have to see that you are indeed changing."
"You'll see. It won't be long."
The gap between Valendo and the Brotherhood has officially disappeared, and the remaining embarrassment has gradually faded away in the exchanges about the law. After all, all their actions are just lame behaviors of young people imitating their elders. In the face of lofty ideals, its fragile
Vulnerable.
Compared with the rest of the Brotherhood who accept the concept of the Land of Light, the Knights' team's life in the Land of Light is even more contradictory with the creed of expelling and destroying weirdos.
The five knights did not become Lu Li's bodyguard as Mateus expected. They were idle at home, not taken seriously, and ignored by the exorcists. Only not long ago, the bachelor Lena was summoned - after all the new residents were summoned.
The next day, and just returned.
"What will Mr. Exorcist do to us."
The knight captain Michael and his companions waiting in the shack looked at Lena who came back.
"...He said he didn't need a guard and hoped that I could work with those scholars to create the god-given armor."
"What about us?" Scout Knight asked.
Bachelor Lena didn't know whether to laugh or be distressed: "Mr. Lu Li asked you to go to the school building to study mysticism..."
"Occult science?" Captain Michael frowned.
"He said that all prejudice stems from ignorance..."
"Can't we convince the Exorcist?" Knight squire Matt asked.
"Can you convince your own father?" The Scout Knight's example is less apt, but the result is the same - they can't convince the exorcist any more than a child can convince his father.
"Well...it's better than being driven away from the land of light."
"If you want to enjoy the sweet fruits of the world, you must learn to coexist peacefully with evil..." Captain Michael ended his thinking and read Mayor Mateus' warning before leaving: "...We follow the instructions of Mr. Exorcist.
"
Although they were not taken seriously, the Exorcists did not target them either - the god-given armor and equipment were kept by them.
At this time, it was almost noon, and there was not long left before the school building was officially put into use. Captain Michael and three team members came to the school building to sign up separately from Bachelor Lena who was heading to the square.
All other residents have completed registration and they are the last batch.
"How literate are you?" the Vine Cultist standing at the door of the school building asked them.
Captain Michael endured his resistance to the weirdness and replied stiffly: "They can all read and write."
The Vine Cultist said: "You can participate in linguistics, botany, science, mechanics, mathematics that will be offered in the afternoon, and mysticism and alchemy that will be added tomorrow. There will be tests every week, and your scores will determine your career."
The registration ended hastily, and they were relieved to stay away from the Vine Cultists and the school building. Then, the distant sound of the whistle from the bay called their attention.
Andrea returns from Shadow Swamp carrying the Banyan Guard and the Twisted Tree.
"I'm going to try again in Old Belfast."
Lake Island, Lu Li and the Mother of Swamps.
"So urgent."
"I have rested enough. I have done everything I need to do. All that is left is to recover the Land of Light and release the cursed title. The former must be before the rainy season and before I leave, but now is not the time, and the latter is
That’s what I can do immediately.”
"But our protection will make it difficult for you to be near death..."
"I will use the crown of knowledge to forget about asylum." Lu Li replied.
Maybe this is one of the purposes of Midnight City to let him get the crown of knowledge?
