Chapter 37 A Funny Experiment
At night, in the center of the "King's Kingdom", on the high platform of the palace.
Xiaolin Longdan, who had just finished today's mission, walked alone in the corridor of the palace under the bright moon.
She did not attend the banquet of her "comrades-in-arms" who were also members of the "Light Society", but chose to leave alone, and then silently looked at the sea under the bright moon.
Almost everyone saw this, but no one pointed it out, because the current environment was no longer suitable for people with her personality to continue to hang out here.
Those "comrades-in-arms" who were also members of the "Light Society" were not so much understanding of her, Xiaolin Longdan, as they were afraid of being associated with her, and afraid of being punished by the officials under the emperor because of her.
After all, they were considered surrendered generals, and their status and position were naturally much worse than those old subordinates who had followed ten generations of emperors for who knows how many years.
[How much pain and separation did those released "bad beasts" cause? 】
Xiaolin Longdan looked at the horizon, but could only see the moon, not the world ravaged by the "bad beasts".
To be precise, it was not the "bad beasts" that ravaged her, but the emperor's anger. The reason that aroused the anger of the tenth emperor was so naive that it made people laugh. It was just because of the status of the "duelist".
The tenth emperor believed that duelists should be respected, not "clowns" in the eyes of mortals. In order to let ordinary people and duelists in this world fully realize their power, he asked the people of the "Light Society" to release the "bad beasts".
Xiaolin Longdan knew that he could not refuse. After all, when Messiah brought all the members of the Light Society to join the tenth emperor, his power to control the "bad beasts" had become one of the bargaining chips.
Even at that time, the intelligence chief of the tenth emperor had calculated the positions of all the "bad beasts" through his own power fluctuations. So what he said today that they could also awaken the bad beasts, but the means were a little more cruel... was indeed not to scare her.
[It's ridiculous...] As a witness, Xiaolin Longdan felt that this problem was illogical every time she thought of it, but she couldn't produce any concrete evidence to prove that the tenth emperor's idea was wrong.
Because those truly powerful duelists do have the ability to be admired by everyone.
Ironically and funny, the miracles that humans have failed to achieve through countless methods such as science and theology can be easily achieved today through "playing cards"... This is simply a slap in the face of humans.
For example, the so-called "second wife" of Bekas, Bekas said to the outside world that he found a girl who looked very similar to Cindia, but a small group of people like Kobayashi Rindan who really understand the dark game world know that it was Cindia who has been dead for who knows how many years, and was pulled back from the underworld by Dongfeng Gu Hui with a pendant when she was already in the state of ashes...
It is precisely because of this that Kobayashi Rindan once followed Dongfeng Gu Hui's back so crazily, hoping that she could revive her brother, but was always evaded by Messiah with "the time is not right yet".
"This level of duelists can be said to be gods... But in the eyes of modern people, and in the eyes of netizens during the recent public opinion outbreak, they are just 'despicable villains' who can be talked about at will." Xiaolin Longdan said to himself: "So I can understand the emperor's thoughts, but..."
【"But it shouldn't be like this, it's too much, right?"】
A familiar but unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in Xiaolin Longdan's mind.
Xiaolin Longdan looked back and found that a ghost who had met her once was floating behind her, looking at her with interest.
"Are you... Li Zheng?"
When Xiaolin Longdan saw Li Zheng, her heartbeat accelerated. She knew why she wanted to see the person in front of her so much, because he once said that her power to control the "bad beast" actually belonged to him!
"Are you here? Hurry up, take my power back!" Xiaolin Longdan shouted loudly: "Please, I don't want any extravagant hope of resurrecting Xiong Ye, take my power back, and then give me a quick death!"
Xiaolin Longdan shouted very loudly, and there were some of her little tricks in it - she hoped to attract the guards of the imperial city through the sound, so as to force Li Zheng to make a choice.
But what she didn't expect was that since Li Zheng would show up, it meant that the space in this area had been stripped away by Li Zheng a long time ago, and no one would come even if she shouted at the top of her lungs.
【“Are you sure? You should know that no one who surrenders power can continue to live in the world as a human being.”】 Li Zheng slowly supported his chin and said calmly: 【“You could have used this power to exchange for your brother’s second life—just wait until the time is right.”】
“The time is right… I have been using these four words Messiah to fool me for five years!” Xiao Lin Long Dan smiled desperately, tears welling up in his eyes: “Do you know what they want me to do tomorrow? Continue to release the bad beasts, and anger the bad beasts to increase their destructive power!”
【“Oh, then what?”】
This “then” completely angered Xiao Lin Long Dan, she glared at Li Zheng: “Then? Then millions of people will die because of this! You only have a light ‘then’? Are you a devil?!”
[“It’s hundreds of millions of people.”] Li Zheng corrected a data casually, then pointed behind Xiao Lin Long Dan: [“If you want to become one of them, there is a wall over there that you can hit yourself.”]
“It won’t work if I die.” Xiao Lin Long Dan sneered: “If I hit the wall and die, this force will automatically look for the nearest ‘human’ to serve as a host… This is something they don’t know, otherwise I would have died long ago.”
She deliberately emphasized the word “human”, as if to irritate Li Zheng, but it had little effect.
【“In that case…” Li Zheng raised his hands and placed them on his chin, and said to Xiao Lin Long Dan in front of him with the most contemptuous tone: 【“I’m right here, you’re arguing with me?”】
“You…” Xiao Lin Long Dan was completely furious. She no longer pleaded with Li Zheng, but directly took out the duel disk and said angrily: “Since you think so, then… duel! Let me be crushed to pieces in the duel to wash away my sins… and slap you hard in the face!”
Originally, Xiao Lin Long Dan thought that Li Zheng would not accept her duel here, but this duel was actually just to boost her courage, but unexpectedly, after a brief moment of absent-mindedness and calculation, Li Zheng actually smiled and picked up the duel disk.
"OK, let's have a duel to solve your problem." Li Zheng put away all his cynical smiles and said to Xiao Lin Long Dan sincerely: "Well, you should be able to guess that if it wasn't for your problem, why would I come here?"
"You...you came here early..." Seeing Li Zheng so cooperative, Xiao Lin Long Dan was still a little uncomfortable - she really thought that this guy was here to satisfy his own bad taste: "Then why didn't you agree to my duel at the beginning?"
She was confused.
"I don't want to keep angering you, a good person who is willing to sacrifice for the world, but because of some complicated reasons, you must take the initiative to confront me here." Li Zheng shrugged his shoulders. He didn't use telepathy but said these words directly, "It's more complicated, so I won't say it."
Well, because the experiment was successful, this guy is actually very excited now. He is worried that using telepathy will accidentally expose his bet with Emmanok.
Yes, experiment. Before, Li Zheng seemed to be irritating Xiaolin Longdan, but in fact, Li Zheng was testing Emanok's bottom line in the bet again and again; Li Zheng has been trying this since he found out that Emanok was also betting on his "humanity" when the tenth emperor came. And through this conversation tonight, he has slowly touched a corner.
Li Zheng really can't take the initiative, but if someone directly hits him in the face, Emanok, who is also betting on Li Zheng's "humanity", can tolerate Li Zheng's action.
But even if he touched the bottom line, Li Zheng was not particularly happy - the subtlety of Emanok's design lies in the fact that the degree of "hitting in the face" is difficult to grasp, and none of the key figures in this "disaster" are stupid enough to confront him, Li Zheng.
"Thank you for satisfying my bad taste of pretending to be a villain, and thank you for cooperating in completing the experiment... I will let you die a little more dreamy."
Li Zheng took out a fragrant deck from his deck and gently put it on the duel disk.
"That's really... Thank you!" Seeing this guy with a bad taste, veins popped out on Xiaolin Longdan's forehead, "Duel!"
"Duel."
