Everyone spent the night around the bonfire piled up from the demolished house. After a simple decontamination arranged by Sister Sai, the concentration of plague on those plague knights has dropped to normal levels. Now they are no longer a moving source of plague. This is for everyone
It is a good thing for people, including themselves, as everyone can live longer. Although their armor is very crude, it is much better than ordinary people with zero protection.
These knights are inherently strong, and their immune systems can theoretically last longer. The lower the rank, the worse the equipment and the shorter their lives. In order to avoid being tortured to death after getting sick and becoming a source of infection, they
When they can no longer hold on, they will find a place to kill themselves. Since the church began to carry out such suicide missions, the church's armed forces have been reduced by 40%, and many low-level soldiers have been consumed.
But the miraculous thing is that the lifespan of a team performing a purification mission can usually reach one to three months, which is obviously beyond the time period from infection to onset to death of the plague, and is completely impossible from a biological point of view. So far, I and I
The extraordinary power that Bai Yanghua has always suspected has finally been revealed. These knights can fight the plague through so-called faith. The stronger the faith, the stronger the body's resistance to the plague. As for the chosen one that Sister Sai just deceived, then
They are the legendary ultimate believers who have reached the realm of unity between man and nature. The plague is not a fear to them at all. The number of such believers is very small, and most knights only know that such a thing exists, but have never seen it.
Yes. That's why the leading man was so shocked when Sister Sai said that the three of us were the Chosen Ones.
The big man's level is not high, and he has only carried out one "cleaning" mission so far. I can't judge what they did, so I can only ignore those things for the time being. Due to Sister Sai's level suppression, this team of knights cannot
They did not give up on "cleaning up" the village and went elsewhere. Moreover, Sister Sai also asked them to spread the decontamination method. She also told them that as long as the plague was detected and isolated in time, it would not break out out of control. They should wait until the plague breaks out before going to massacre the village.
Not advisable.
Sister Sai made the big man swear an oath to her knighthood, but we can't be sure whether these people will do what she said. After all, the church's high-level people only gave orders to slaughter the village. These loyal but stupid people
People are definitely still willing to listen to the church rather than the Chosen One who suddenly appears, even if the Chosen One's status is really high. Washing off the plague on their bodies may extend their lifespan, but it may take several months before they can
Will believe this fact. We can only hope that this group of theists can worship us "chosen ones", don't think so much and just follow suit.
By the way, our group of goddesses are actually "atheists." Isn't it interesting? The goddess is opposed to all forms of blind worship, and even more opposed to talking nonsense in the name of God and doing whatever he wants. Although the goddess is a god, she is by no means aloof or even illusory.
existence. We have fan meetings, a hotline, an official website, and even a goddess cabin where you can directly meet the goddess herself. If you have any questions, you don’t have to worry about coming directly. Don’t listen to random people talking nonsense in our name.
.Whatever we ask mortals to do, we will directly say it and explain it clearly. We will never send down any ambiguous oracles for everyone to guess and be used by those who are interested. If we ignore the fact that the goddess is too powerful, we are actually better than mortals.
Our own management is much more friendly to the people. We don’t have a bloated organization with layers upon layers of problems. Feedback from any goddess is equivalent to talking directly to Zero Beauty. This is something that almost all mortal civilizations cannot do.
.
The knights rode away doubtfully, and the remaining villagers in the village temporarily escaped the fate of being massacred. Baiyanghua no longer fooled around or was weird, but was in a contemplative mode thinking about life. She finally realized the world and peace
The world is different, and some ideas that are called common sense in a peaceful world do not apply here.
The villagers did not think as much as we thought. They still sat together tremblingly waiting for us to be disappointed. They did not thank us because we drove away the knights and saved them, nor did they hate us because we burned their dilapidated houses.
.This group of human beings just huddled together like frightened chickens, neither resisting nor escaping, which is completely incomprehensible to me as a modern person. I always thought that emotions such as gratitude and hatred were human instincts, but these
The villagers do not have these instincts at all. They just "live" in this world, and maybe they have never thought about things other than "living". I don't know whether this is stupidity or ignorance, or just because of their
Life is too bitter and monotonous to be considered a real human being at all.
Bai Yanghua tried to communicate with the villagers, but unfortunately, no one dared to respond to her. Even the village chief just kept saying "I don't know, I don't know" to avoid it. A few of us were among these villagers.
There are jackals, tigers and leopards in your eyes, and they are terrifying monsters. You can't run to say thank you to a monster who saved you. You will only save your life and run away with it. After asking for trouble, Bai Yang
Hua gave up trying and returned to a beam where we rested.
"Amy."
"What."
"Why aren't they happy after escaping? It's fine if they don't want to thank us. After all, we also destroyed their village. But... why aren't they happy after they survived? Isn't happiness a human instinct?"
"Yanghua, actually what you said before is right."
"What did I say?"
"You are right when you say that they will not be able to live if we destroy their homes. These shabby wooden houses and thatched huts are shabby in our eyes, but to them they are ancestral family properties and necessities for survival.
They probably feel the same way as those who survived the earthquake but saw their homes devastated. Do you think such people will be happy because they survived?"
"But they did survive. Isn't it good to live..."
"Yanghua, not everyone thinks like you that it is better to die than live. Sometimes, death is indeed a kind of relief, a way to escape from cruel reality, and the only choice for the weak to decide their own destiny.
"
"Amy, can you understand this idea?"
"Of course. Although I have never taken the initiative to die before, I have also done similar things to escape reality."
"Hey? Why do you want to escape reality?"
"Oh, you don't seem to know yet. I was not a goddess from birth. I was transformed from a mortal into a goddess by my sisters, just like you are now, but the degree of change is much higher than yours."
"It turns out you were an ordinary human before!"
"Well, that's why I can understand the thoughts of many ordinary people, especially the weak. I was a weak before, even too weak to support myself. So I once refused real love, marriage and raising children, and refused everything that ordinary people would do.
I can't change the cruel reality, so I can only choose not to be part of this reality... Those days were really bad, and my relationship with my parents at that time was not much better than yours. If there were no zero
Save me, maybe this weakling like me will really disappear... I'm not like you~ You are a genius, you can do something well if you want to. I'm just a stupid ordinary person, no matter how hard I work,
I always fail when I try to do something..."
"I'm sorry, Amy..."
"how?"
"I used to think that you were just a superior god who ignored the lives of ordinary people. It seems that I misunderstood..."
"This is not a misunderstanding, you have low emotional intelligence."
"Why?"
"After spending so many years with me, you still haven't figured out my true nature. I'm really impressed by you~"
"Ah? But you have been suffering from facial paralysis for so many years. How can I understand what kind of person you are?"
"Isn't he a good person?"
"But you are also cruel and have caused pain to many people..."
"Pain is temporary, bad things are temporary, and things will get better in the future, right? Compared to something as bad as reality, I am obviously decent if I can arrange a good ending for everyone, right?"
