[...Monsters prey on humans because of their humanity. Monsters need humanity to survive, just like fire needs firewood to burn.]
Lu Li put down his quill.
Sterling's death left the theory of human nature lacking follow-up experiments and making it difficult to continue to supplement it. Although speculation and conjecture can be used to improve human nature, reality will be missing.
After thinking for a moment at the desk, Lu Li put the quill back into the ink bottle.
After being promoted to middle grade, it was no longer important to complete his humanity. What Lu Li needed to do now was to continue to improve his occult level and become familiar with the rules of the trunk area.
Close the note and put it in the drawer.
The sound of the drawer being pulled attracted the attention of Naxi, who was mending his cloak under the fluorite lamp, and then continued to mend.
It had been a day since the contaminant notes were studied. It was a pity that Lanner could not be saved. After learning that the notes obtained nourishment by trapping and killing each other among their victims, the Holy Light Team destroyed the notes.
In other words, Lu Li destroyed it.
If it were the Holy Light Team, they might sell it or keep it and maybe use it as a weapon one day.
Kiruit felt that destroying the pollutants was a bit wasteful, but they had no objection. After all, this was indeed what the exorcists would do.
Lu Li did not tell them that he could rob humanity because Professor Chris prohibited it. She asked Lu Li not to reveal to anyone that he could rob humanity.
So when the notes struggled and trembled in Lu Li's left hand, and finally burned and turned into ashes, the Holy Light Team didn't know Lu Li's rich harvest: the pollutant notes gave Lu Li a humanity slightly inferior to that of the Wraith.
This humanity comes from the victims.
Although he possesses a lot of humanity, he is as weak as a ghost. He is like the best food in the eyes of monsters.
This makes people think that one day the pages of notes will be filled with writing, will notes take on new changes at that time?
Today is the rest day after the mission. Kiruaite, Yeager, and Naxi are all resting in the lounge. In the afternoon, Lu Li put on his cloak and went to Professor Chris's office.
Knock knock knock
"If it's Lu Li, please come in. The others will come another day."
Professor Chris's lazy voice came from behind the door.
Lu Li pushed the door open and entered. There was no sign of Professor Chris in the Alchemy Office. Only a glass of sparkling wine by the fireplace sounded her voice: "Dear, I'm meeting an old friend in the restricted area. Those on the table are Vita
What I leave to you is not practical, but of great commemorative value."
Withdrawing his gaze from observing the office, Lu Li approached the desk.
A horn that smells like a wild rhino horn, an oval clay bottle, and a landscape photo.
Taking into account Vita's hobbies and museum exhibits, these three items come from different civilizations, and the last one is human civilization.
But Vita misunderstood one thing. Lu Li was not interested in the history of civilization, even though he could feel the weight of history from these treasures.
Lu Li looked at the last thing on the desk.
"This is the note left by Sterling. There is some interesting content in it." Professor Chris's voice sounded through the wine glass at this moment.
Lu Li stretched out his left hand to pick up the notes and turned to the page with the bookmark.
[The experiment was successful... How should I call this substance... light? No, light itself is radiation... radiation? Why do I know this word? Thank you Lu Li! Yes, radiation, this substance is called radiation... No
!This is not matter! It’s called radiation!]
[Pollution is radiation, breath is radiation, this is the same new discovery as human nature!]
[No... not at this time... shut up you bastards! Take me away when I finish writing! Listen, remember this word, radiation. All existence has radiation. Gods, weirdos, us, even beasts,
Trees, stones... Do you understand? Don't make any noise! The reason why we are polluted by weird breath is because of radiation, the reason why we are polluted by weird meat is because of radiation, and the reason why we are deformed after being in contact with weird things for a long time is because of radiation! I have found... my hand
...Damn it!]
The originally skewed text suddenly became more scrawled, and Lu Li could barely make out the text from the few remaining symbols.
【Resistance, radiation, no pollution】
By blocking and eliminating radiation, humans will no longer suffer from pollution.
This is the prototype of a great theory.
It's a pity that Sterling failed to support and perfect this theory. To a certain extent, he was lucky but unfortunate to discover the theory of human nature and radiation theory at the end of his life, but he disappeared in the long night in order to perfect them.
"Yes, sometimes I also think that Sterling can hold on for a while... When the dean comes back, I will propose adding science to the department. What is your suggestion?" Professor Chris sighed at the right time.
Lu Li's black eyes left his notes and fell towards the wine glass in front of the fireplace.
"Of course I'm not here. I hope you're not cute enough to talk to me."
Lu Li thought that Wine Glass should die and released Zhi Chu's message through some kind of perception.
Without giving him a chance to leave more messages, Lu Li put down his notebook and left the Alchemy Office with Professor Chris saying "See you in a few days, dear."
…
Light Team Lounge.
Kiruait was sitting on the bed reading a book, Yeager was eating food at the round table, and Naxi's sleeping silhouette vaguely appeared behind the curtains of the bed.
Lu Li's return made Kiruait raise his head and put down the book.
"Are you ready to take on a new mission?"
Lu Li looked away from Margaret's book: "When."
"That's enough rest for one day... tomorrow morning, I think."
"I have no objection."
Jaeger, who was eating quietly, replied.
"Yawn...me too." Naxi's bed shook, and the figure inside sat up.
Lu Li nodded under Kiruaite's gaze.
"I'm going to the mission hall to pick a mission, do you want to go with me?" Kiruaite asked.
"Not yet."
Lu Li returned to his bed and placed the books he borrowed from the library on the bedside table. Kiruaite quickly left and put on a cloak to hide his identity. As time passed, the Holy Light Team's attacks returned.
Kiruait took a little longer this time, and Jaeger couldn't help but look for her before returning.
The mission location this time is still outside Midnight City, investigating a family of three who are suspected of believing in the God of Ghouls. The basic reward is 1 credit and 2 team points.
While the team is working together, Kiruait tries to make his efforts worthwhile.
No matter what, fighting someone with a golden sword and shield will result in heavy losses.
Kiruaite's gaze paused on the sleepy Naxi and Jaeger, and finally looked at the calm Lu Li.
"Leave early tomorrow morning."
…
In a dark, damp and cold corner, a silhouette lies dormant quietly in the darkness.
Ominous whispers flowed slowly along with the sound of water dripping.
"This is a good opportunity...he left..."
The outline slowly rose, causing darkness to surge, and the abominable aura overflowing.
The murmurs continued, gradually becoming inaudible with the breeze.
