Chapter 959 Pleasure Is Important
"You can transfer to Line 3 at this station..."
It’s almost 11 o’clock in the evening, and the flow of people at the transfer station is still ridiculously large. Office workers carrying briefcases add a touch of fatigue to the subway. It seems that the labor laws in the country of stars are not implemented very well, and it’s already the Chinese New Year. Still have to go to work.
But when the subway started running, the chirping noise made the subway bright again - after all, there is a holiday tomorrow.
The subway leaves the mountain tunnel, shuttles on the aerial track, and flies over the city. Looking at the neon steel forest, even though he was in a cramped carriage, Yaxiu didn't feel uncomfortable at all and instead relaxed.
The smoke and fire in the world most caress the hearts of society and animals.
"There's a super delicious hotpot there." Ya Xiu pointed to a commercial street below and said, "It's just that the portion is a bit too much. I can't eat much by myself. Let's go have a meal if we still have time before leaving tomorrow. Come. When I want to share a table with you, no matter how much I order, it won’t be wasted.”
Rose's nose twitched and her eyebrows wrinkled, "I feel like you're laughing at me."
The corners of Ash's mouth turned up slightly, when footsteps sounded from behind. He turned around and saw a strong man carrying a backpack pushing through the crowd and walking to the carriage at the back. He glanced at the long backpack that looked like it contained fishing rods, took Rose's hand, and walked quietly through the crowd.
Rose followed him quietly, and the two stopped at the junction of the penultimate carriage.
Ash pulled her against the wall, scanned the carriage, and whispered into her ear: "Seven people, those seven people have guns in their backpacks."
Ash had not specially trained, but after wandering in the virtual world for a long time, running rampant in iron and fire, he could already keenly detect unknown threats in strange environments. These seven people used backpacks to hide guns. He could almost smell the charming smell of gun oil inside and hear the sound of bullets sloshing.
Rose took a look and said, "It's Sequillo and Flores."
"you know?"
"Among the collaborators recommended to me by the intermediary, I have met these two people and have cooperated with each other once." Rose said: "But their work is not very reliable, and the police department is dispatched. After paying the balance, they will not return." Never hired them."
"What are they armed and ready to do?"
"Probably they will start a massacre at the Bell Tower Square transfer station, and then fight all the way to the square." Rose said: "After all, the station with the largest number of people is the Bell Tower Square station."
"Ah?" Ya Xiu was startled, "Why did they do this?"
"The city of Canaan disappeared, the capital Jiashi suffered a golden rain, and the death toll exceeded one million people. Coupled with the economic downturn and class conflicts, people all over the country were surging. The careerists who controlled power and power all believed that the era of democratic government was It's about to end, and they want to speed up the process," Rose said calmly: "A massacre will obviously make the government very anxious."
Ash blinked, "You know so clearly."
"Because I was present at every meeting they held." Rose said calmly, "I just don't know who they hired."
"Meeting?"
"Well, in the past, in order to increase the value of your assets, you needed to use some means to suppress other forces from time to time. Later, they gave in and asked me what I wanted. They would avoid it and never interfere. I was too lazy to notify them one by one, so I gathered them together. If you have anything to say, just tell them." Rose said, "But I seldom speak. On the contrary, they often reach cooperation after the destruction of Canaan City, and their discussion frequency becomes more and more frequent, as if they want to formally intervene in the political situation of various places. ”
Ash was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
My assistant established a mysterious organization with nationwide power without my knowledge, and all the bosses in the underground world were defeated by her?
"Then can you stop them?"
"No." Rose gave him a strange look, "Why would they listen to me?"
Ash changed his words: "Then can you destroy their conspiracy?"
Rose thought for a moment: "Okay, but why should we do it? It's none of our business."
"Just think of it as my order." Ash glanced at the seven hidden mercenaries in the carriage: "Then can you terminate the mission of this group of people?"
"You like to be nosy." Rose frowned and shook her head: "There is no way to stop it. Even if I want to destroy their conspiracy, I have to spend time working on it. It will take at least five working days."
Ash nodded, rummaged in his backpack, and took out a short sword: "Fortunately, there is no security check, otherwise I would have to use my bare hands... But if there is a security check, they won't be able to get on the subway at all, and I don't need it. Take action."
Rose frowned: "I don't suggest you stop them. It's better to get out of the car and call the police in advance."
"But now that I've seen it, I have the ability to solve it." Ya Xiu said, "Then why don't I do it?"
"Is this why you save the stars?" Rose asked: "Unlike the magician in my impression, you like to meddle in other people's business. Am I wrong about my understanding of the magician?"
Ash looked at the sign and saw that there were still several stops to the Bell Tower Square, so he was not in a hurry, "What is the image of a magician in your impression?"
"Selfish, greedy, greedy for life and afraid of death, and use whatever means necessary."
Rose said: "You said that magicians created this world in order to hunt the source angel, and then destroyed this world in order to hunt the source angel. They dominate the destiny of others from above, competing and killing each other as if they are enemies."
"So I have always believed that magicians are a bunch of despicable creatures."
"But you are willing to put yourself in danger in order to save the stars, even if you offend the most powerful magician." Rose was a little confused: "Now you are willing to risk yourself to save people you don't know. Dealing with mercenaries at the risk of injury, when you clearly don’t need to, and you can’t benefit from it... You confuse me.”
"Or is it that my understanding of magicians is wrong, and you are the real magician?"
Ash thought for a while and smiled: "First of all, your knowledge of magicians is correct. The vast majority of magicians match your description. If you encounter any magicians in the future, you will be right to treat them as bad guys." ”
Rose: "So you are one of the few outliers?"
"No." Ya Xiu shook his head: "I am also in the majority. I fit every one of your adjectives. I am just as selfish, just as greedy, just as afraid of death, and just as unscrupulous."
"Then why are you meddling?"
"In your opinion, this is nosy, but in my opinion, this is my selfishness and greed." Ya Xiu said: "I don't think I am nosy, because I can't see it, then I won't If I don’t care, I won’t blame myself, because I’m not at fault; if I don’t have the ability, then I can’t control it, and I won’t blame myself, because I really can’t do it.”
"But I have the power and the power, so I'm going to use it where I think it's right."
"It is true that I save the stars for many people, but I do it even more for myself." Ya Xiu said calmly: "There is nothing more shameful than wasting one's power. Having a sharp weapon but not using it is the same as What’s the difference between LaLaFat?”
He looked at Rose and said, "That's what I said, don't tell Nia and Feili... Although I don't think Master Fanxing is right, I don't think He is wrong either. "
Rose was a little surprised.
"Of course He created the stars and destroyed the stars in pursuit of the supreme, but whether this pursuit is right or wrong is not something I can evaluate." Ash shrugged, "Maybe if I help the Angel of Origin escape, it will It might cause a wider disaster.”
"Perhaps we have better options, but when we make a decision, we can only choose the best option at the time. The Lord of the Stars will hunt the Source Angel, and I want to protect the Kingdom of the Stars. This is the case."
"Despicable, greedy, abusive of power, unscrupulous, these are certainly the labels of a magician. After all, magicians are a group of thieves parasitic on the virtual world." Ya Xiu said: "But these are not the most important things about magicians. Characteristics.”
"The most important thing is," he glanced at Rose: "When magicians have virtual wings, they believe that they should not be bound by any chains. Their souls are like feathers, their lives are like weeds, they swim across the ocean and across the earth , the burning and bright ambition in their hearts never goes out.”
"Whether it is chaotic or lawful, whether it is good or evil, these thieves called magicians are on the road to pursuing their own miracles. No magician will waste his power and power, and they will all change the world according to their own wishes."
“Because they can do it, they do it.”
"So the magician will both create hell and reach heaven."
After traveling so far, Ash has many doubts about the world of magicians. The biggest one is why the six great gods created six countries with completely different social systems.
At first, he believed that the Six Nations were the God Lord’s back garden, and that the Six Nations could produce a steady stream of resources for the God Lord;
Later, he believed that the Six Nations could help the God Lord strive for a higher level of power. For example, the power of faith could strengthen miracles;
But now he feels that the previous speculations may be correct, but the reason why the Six Kingdoms were born should also include the expectations of the God Lord.
They had the power to create a kingdom that fit their imagination, so they did.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why different countries are full of the styles of their respective gods, with starry sky, gospel gods, and dreams... The gods absolutely spare no effort in investing in the country.
As for whether they contain good intentions or bad intentions, there is no value in discussing them.
For example, if the Lord of the Stars loves humans with good intentions, so other races are exterminated, and the Lord of the Blood Moon exploits all living beings with malice, but other races can continue, then for humans, the Lord of the Stars and the Blood Moon Evil, but to elves and other races, it is blood moon, good and stars, evil.
Good and evil only exist in social relationships, but God and the Lord are rules that cannot be resisted by all living beings.
Do sunlight, rain, and earth have concepts of good and evil?
"It sounds like magicians are just a group of thieves who steal power and then spend it wantonly." Rose commented.
"That's right." Ya Xiu nodded affirmatively: "But maybe it's because I beautify myself as a magician. I think the world is just a tree. If there is no magician, the tree will grow and wither naturally, and all living beings will grow and die without it. Spend your life quietly under the miraculous tree.”
"The existence of the magician is like a saw cutting the tree. Although sometimes it goes forward and sometimes it goes backward, it is always developing in depth."
Rose said, "But won't that cut down the tree?"
"If the tree falls, then there will be materials for building a home." Ash blinked, "We're almost at the station. Do you have any way to drive away the other passengers?"
Rose opened her phone and made a few operations, nodded slightly, and suddenly said calmly: "It will hurt even if you are injured. Do you really want to take the risk?"
Ash glanced at her in surprise, with the corners of his mouth raised and a smile on his face: "The pain is not important."
"Pleasure is what matters."
At the next stop, as soon as the door opened, all the fire sprinklers in the last carriage suddenly turned on, soaking all the passengers. Naturally, everyone hurriedly left the door and cursed who was smoking in the subway.
The mercenaries hesitated for a moment. The last carriage was their starting point, so they hid where the sprinklers could not reach. But soon they discovered something was wrong - the door was closed early, and the gate between their car and the car in front was also closed, and they were trapped!
Only a young man wearing a mask was locked up with them. He pulled out a short sword from his sleeve, and his malice couldn't be more obvious. The mercenaries looked at each other, took out guns from their backpacks, aimed at him, and said with resentment, "Boy, did you make a mistake and lock yourself with us? If you dare to sabotage our mission, I won't let you die easily." "
"mistake."
Ash walked leisurely to avoid the bullets, which almost grazed along his figure. He swung his sword leisurely in the storm of barrages, and a splash of blood appeared!
"I'm not forced to be locked up with you." Looking at the thugs who were starting to get scared, Ash showed a cruel smile on his lips: "It's you who are forced to be locked up with me."
