Chapter 868 [Favorability]
There is a theory that Lindsay hates - the so-called weak theory.
If the weak are bullied by the strong, they have to blame themselves. Except for those who are unable to control their own destiny, this is probably the excuse found by those who initiate acts such as genocide or massacre to excuse themselves.
But now Alice has fallen into the former trap.
When people with a strong sense of responsibility face failure, they always like to blame themselves for the problem, especially those who love to take advantage of others.
Fortunately, Lindsay and Alice have experienced adventures together, have seen each other's abilities, and the other party can listen to his advice.
So, when Lindsay opened a hole in this south wall.
Alice looked over and realized something:
"Lindsay, I..."
"The royal weapon is very important. I should not betray the trust of the [White Steel Sword]. But... but... what is really important is the living lives in this world."
Alice's voice paused.
Under the heavy rain, it sounded a little blurry.
But when Lindsay activated [Atmospheric Touch], every word was clear.
He held Alice's shoulders:
"Now that you have figured it out, tell me now."
"In this case, what exactly should be done now?"
"..."
"ah--"
The righteous girl suddenly yelled.
Lindsay expected Alice to switch goals and regain her composure.
But what actually happened was beyond his expectations.
The will of the original righteous person is undergoing rapid changes, and the force of moving forward firmly is distorted into another state.
Lindsay happened to have the [Puzzle Game] module turned on.
At such a close distance, the clue white light directly showed the changes in Alice's body before Lindsay's eyes.
[(Phase 1) Weapon of Desire - The indulgent desires a goal intensely. When his actions are directed toward this goal, all abilities will be enhanced. 】
[(Second stage) Lustful heart-greedy desire appears to the outside world. Strong willpower can turn into the hand of reality, helping the indulgent person influence things in reality. 】
[(Third Stage) Bottomless Belly - After the indulgent person achieves his or her goal, depending on the difficulty of the behavior, the Sephiroth skills will be permanently enhanced to varying degrees. 】
[(Fourth stage) Indulgent brain - within the scope of the mental envelope, no disturbance can escape the detection of the indulgent person. 】
[(Fifth stage) Fire of Desire - The terrible desire of the indulgent person extends outward and begins to affect the sanity of others. 】
[(Sixth stage) Collapse - one's own will will burst out in an endless way, destroying anything that blocks oneself. 】
"..."
Lindsay was dumbfounded.
From the 1st stage to the 6th stage, all the skills of the righteous person have undergone a complete reversal.
A righteous person who was still trying to get into trouble.
Now it looks like a self-indulgent and terrifying boss!
snap——
Lindsay stood up from the muddy beach and took two steps back:
"Did I do something terrible..."
Before Lindsay could finish speaking, Alice rushed up to him and held him in her arms:
"Lindsey, I appreciate it."
A girl's voice sounded in Lindsay's ears.
Silently he opened the map and took a look.
He found that Alice's mark was still green, symbolizing goodwill, so he didn't push the other person away.
Alice continued to thank Lindsay:
"If it weren't for you, I would definitely give up on myself until I die."
"This is definitely not what I should really be doing!"
Lindsay asked tentatively:
"Then you are not planning to give up on the creed you once adhered to, are you?"
Alice's unabashed voice sounded in Lindsay's ears:
"No, what I insist on doing will never change!"
"But the true self should not be born under constraints. I should accept the true desire in my heart and find my own path."
Lindsay slowly pushed Alice away.
In the rain curtain thrown by the heavy rain, he saw the other party's eyes.
The once firm gray pupils became darker.
Lindsay also read Alice's mind.
She still insists on her own ideas, but the self-restraint she once had in her heart has been completely released.
Reached stage 6.
The will of the righteous person is almost one with his person.
After this thing was defeated and reshaped, it was hard to tell what was going on in Alice's mind before her.
That's when.
The untimely beep of the property panel rang in Lindsay's ears.
[Task completed]
[Galgame module level: 1→2]
[Favorability: Players can observe the favorability of other creatures towards themselves and see corresponding evaluation descriptions.
Note: It is recommended that the favorability level be above 85 before initiating a confession. 】
The skill that she had almost forgotten scared Lindsay's eyelids.
He realized that something unnecessary was happening before his eyes. But at this moment, standing on the land of her missing hometown, Lindsay was really not in the mood to think about those strange things.
So refresh your mind.
Regarding the current situation, Lindsay asked Alice:
"Can you tell me a story?"
"What is the story of the righteous man who once lost his will but regained his strength?"
Alice nodded naturally:
"That was a very famous righteous man named Edmund. He was originally committed to protecting his hometown and lover, but in a disaster of a volcanic eruption, he lost everything he wanted to protect, and even framed himself as the sinner who caused the natural disaster and was sent to prison..."
As Alice was telling the story, Lindsay also opened his new skill.
Swish--
Sure enough, a new text box floated on the right side of the girl's head in front of him.
At the end, there was also a red peach heart symbolizing favorability, which was almost completely filled at this moment.
[Alice-90/100]
[She regards you as her best friend, a like-minded companion, and is even willing to sacrifice her life for you. But in her heart, she is not clear about the feelings that have been born. ]
Lindsay wanted to turn off this skill immediately.
But after seeing the first skill of [Galgame], [Text Record].
He suddenly thought of something.
This skill has been objectively recording all the events that happened around him, and occasionally describing the scenery.
Because Lindsay's perception ability is relatively comprehensive.
In the past, he didn't need to use the effect of this skill.
But not long ago, at the bottom of the [Great Rift World], Lindsay encountered an invisible creature approaching.
He thought hard and couldn't investigate the details of the other party.
But under the default record of [Galgame], does the other party's description exist?
Because it is too marginal.
He didn't check the text records on [Galgame] at that time!
Thinking of this, Lindsay opened the [Text Record] and tried to pull the text upwards.
[……]
[Found me, he... found me? ]
[He found me!!! ]
[Kill or humiliate, come on! Whatever you do, it's fine! ]
[I won't disappear! ]
[Yes, this person, he is my hope! ]
