Chapter 223 Bright Moon Consciousness, Desperate Tia
As Lin En's calm words slowly fell, in an instant, the vicious and sinister expression of the Creation Demon froze on his face.
Not only him, but the boy's words seemed to have some kind of great magic power. The dark wave that was raging everywhere just now suddenly died down, as if the god pressed his pocket watch and stopped time at this moment.
But this is certainly not the power of the gods.
Since Miss Witch no longer responded to his prayers, Linn, as a god forsaken, was destined not to receive any response from the gods.
In the final analysis, what caused the current situation was only because of the three sentences he just said.
Those three wishes are like a spell that can seal the devil, locking the creation devil's last hope and support.
At this moment, He finally reacted and realized that his petrified body could no longer move. There was a hint of panic and despair in his eyes, and his eyes when looking at Lin En also changed a little.
It was a look called retreat and begging for mercy.
Obviously, when she heard Linn's three wishes, Yuvelia, who had already integrated with the core characteristics of the wishing jar, instantly understood the other party's intention.
However, once you start making a wish, the process cannot be interrupted.
Especially now that he has lost all his power, leaving only a wisp of consciousness without the ability to autonomously.
So even though she understood the other party's intentions, she was completely helpless.
In fact, long before encountering the wishing jar, Lin En had encountered a sealed object that was very similar to it.
That's right.
It was the Greedy Box that gave Yvester a headache when she first met her.
Of course, compared to the Wishing Jar, the Greed Box at that time was just a level 1 sealed object, and the level of danger was much lower. Later, after the transaction was completed, Linn released him freely. I don’t know where he is now. place.
But they both have one thing in common.
That's the same deceptive rule.
In the final analysis, the only purpose of making this type of sealed object is to make fun of life, so as to collect human beings' fear and despair as spiritual food for some indescribable existence.
Because no matter what you wish for, it will only come out in the worst possible way in the end.
So from the beginning, when he came to this spiritual world, Linn never thought about realizing any wishes from the core characteristics.
His only purpose is to borrow the other party's power.
If you refuse to cooperate, you can only use some extraordinary means.
For the wishing jar, Linn adopted the same strategy as when facing the Greed Box.
The current core characteristics have long been sealed by Miss Witch and have become much weaker. Therefore, even ordinary people without extraordinary power can easily subdue it after knowing the corresponding method.
Yes, it's a paradox.
For this type of sealed object that prioritizes the execution of rules over its own consciousness, only the use of paradox can easily defeat it.
Think about it carefully.
The three wishes Lin En made did not follow the desires buried deep in his heart, nor were they directed at himself, so the result would naturally not be the ruthless teasing of the wishing jar.
The wishes he made were very simple, yet intertwined.
Like a precise and concise program, it locks the last escape route for core features, causing its limited intelligence to enter an infinite loop of downtime for an endless amount of time.
First, there is no priority distinction among the three wishes.
This also means that the first wish and the second wish are contradictory in any case.
You can't choose between "do the opposite" and "don't do it".
Once desire one is followed, desire two will definitely be violated.
Once the second wish is followed, it means that the first wish is not fulfilled.
Putting this aside, Wish Three is another extremely subtle paradox.
Once the third wish is fulfilled, causing the core feature to forget all the wishes made previously, the core rules of the wishing jar will be contrary to it.
If the core characteristic chooses to be forgotten, it means that it violates Linn's second wish - not to realize the third wish.
These are three things that cannot coexist no matter what.
Therefore, at the moment when Lin En made these three wishes, as a fusion of an extremely powerful level 0 sealed object, the core properties of the wishing jar, and the creation demon Yuvelia, he inevitably fell into a desperate situation. middle.
But it does not have the option to restore factory settings like the Greedy Box.
After all, when the ancient gods first created it, they set the rule that "every wish will come true."
As time passed by, the creation demon Yuvelia and the surrounding dark waves were like the passing quicksand, gradually disintegrating and dissipating in the non-existent breeze.
Until the last second, there was still a bit of disbelief in his eyes, as well as unprecedented pleading and regret.
Although these three wishes could preserve her last trace of consciousness until her death, after her only support fell into an endless loop, she no longer had the ability to resist Lin En.
Not only him, but even the core properties will become a toy in Linn's hands - of course, provided that he can pay the price of using it.
But now is not the time to think about this.
"I gave you a chance." Looking at the graceful Black Marsh woman not far away, Linn shrugged, "It's a pity that you didn't choose to cherish it."
As he said this, a group of pitch-black light condensed with countless abstract symbols suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
This was the group of things that Linn received in front of Ivester in the underground ruins of the Sauron Mountains.
At this moment, it seemed to be completely quiet, slowly floating not far away.
The young man did not hesitate, stepped forward quickly, and stared at it carefully for a while.
Then, without hesitation, he grasped it in his palm.
"Where are you going?"
The moment Sister Gretel's gloomy voice rang out from her ears, a creepy feeling hit her whole body.
Tia, who was about to take the secret passage to escape from the Church of Silence, froze on the spot, then suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the sound.
Then, magic candles lit up one after another, illuminating the otherwise dark night clearly and brightly.
Looking at the church members who had appeared around me at some unknown time, the familiar yet unfamiliar faces were filled with indifference and seriousness at the moment.
The nuns who usually take good care of her have become extremely strange to her.
Among them, Sister Gretel was the leader. Under the candlelight, her face was covered with shadows, and her expressionless look brought unprecedented psychological pressure to people.
Tia's little hand clenched the moonlight scepter, and she subconsciously took two steps back. Then she pretended to be calm and showed a forced smile: "Xiu, Sister, I'm about to go to the Saint's Prayer Hall to practice the moonlight scripture. What about the content of the ceremony? Why haven’t you fallen asleep yet?”
It would be over if they knew his true purpose!
So now, while trying to make the atmosphere look more relaxed, she looked around vaguely, trying to find an opportunity to escape.
Even now, she has not given up her plan to leave the church and look for Linn.
If even she gave up, who else in the world would save him?
It was with this thought that Tiya remained calm and stood here.
Seeing this, Sister Gretel had a strange look in her eyes, but the gloom on her face did not dissipate.
Normally, she would have sincerely admitted her mistake and prayed to the Moon Goddess.
"I'm very disappointed in you." Finally, Sister Gretel slowly stepped forward, looked down at the girl in front of her, and said coldly, "Lying is not a good habit, and the church has never taught you this." "Your Majesty the Saint, it seems that you have really changed a lot in the few days you were missing."
The middle-aged nun slowly raised her hand, grabbed Tiya's chin, and lifted it up with force.
Feeling the other party's faint gaze, the girl's heart was beating wildly.
"I-I don't know what you're talking about, nun"
"Still lying!!!"
Sister Gretel, who was usually stern and unsmiling, suddenly screamed.
She seemed to change her expression instantly, the wrinkles on her face twisted together, looking extremely angry.
"You obviously want to find that despicable and shameless rebel!!!"
In an instant, a purple curse mark appeared on Sister Gretel's fingertips.
As the light bloomed, an invisible spiritual whip struck Tiya's consciousness hard.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
"Ah!!!"
The girl let out a painful groan, and the scepter in her hand fell to the ground. Her already pale face lost color even more, and her body swayed and fell towards the ground.
However, at Sister Gretel's signal, two nuns who were relatively familiar with her walked out instantly. They looked cold at this moment and supported her body from left to right.
Although he was supporting him, his posture was more like suppressing the prisoner.
"Be gentle." Seeing this, Sister Gretel's expression suddenly changed, and she hurriedly scolded, "Don't hurt this body!"
"Yes."
The two nuns were a little scared and immediately relaxed their hands and feet.
Strange to say.
What Sister Gretel did was extremely contradictory.
One second he was still using mental whipping on her, but the next second he was afraid of her physical injury.
It was as if in her heart, this body had far higher priority than "Tia Yohesti".
This unprecedented sense of disobedience, mixed with intense fear and shock, swept through Tiya's mind.
In her impression, although Sister Gretel always had a very stern appearance, and her teaching policy was also biased towards not contacting the outside world, this was the first time she had been subjected to such mental punishment.
A feeling of fear arises spontaneously.
While enduring the intense pain in her mind, Tia looked around.
What came into view were familiar faces, but the expression at this moment made her feel extremely unfamiliar.
"You guys." Thinking of this, Tia seemed to realize something and raised her head in disbelief, "Where did Louise go?!"
Seeing that her friend did not appear here, the kind-hearted Tiya panicked instantly.
"You can't even care about yourself, but you still care about the leaker?" Seeing this, Sister Gretel had no expression on her face, "But since Your Majesty the Holy Lady wants to know, I'll tell you."
"The church has privately announced countless times that it is strictly forbidden to disclose to you information related to the fugitive wanted criminal 'Lynn Bartleon'."
"But she ignored this, which indirectly caused you to make the wrong choice tonight."
"As a clergyman of the Silent Church, he has committed an unforgivable sin, so he is currently imprisoned in the underground prison of the Inquisition, awaiting final judgment."
"But when it comes to the secret issues of Her Majesty the Holy Lady and the Church, she will most likely face the death penalty. The worst case scenario is life imprisonment."
Sister Gretel's ruthless words fell slowly.
In an instant, Tiya's body bloomed with unprecedented bright moonlight.
Without any hesitation, she chose to fight the other party.
Now that her freedom was restricted, even Louise was implicated. Apart from escaping by force, Tia could not think of any way to break the situation.
But facing so many former colleagues, and even Sister Gretel, whom she usually respected very much, she couldn't do anything to kill her.
Therefore, Tia's ending can be said to have been predetermined.
As the purple light flashed, the mental whipping that was countless times greater than before struck again, causing the extraordinary power that Tiya had finally inspired to instantly collapse.
Her body was shaking violently, whimpering, and enduring indescribable pain.
"Why?"
Tia, whose eyes were distracted, lost the ability to resist, glistening saliva flowed faintly from her lips, and even her voice became unclear.
But she still retains a bit of unwillingness to give up.
Sister Gretel looked at her condescendingly, with a trace of pity and mockery in her eyes.
"Your Excellency Saint, this is the first and last time I call you this." She slowly raised Tia's chin, "Perhaps the illusion created by the church has brought you some unnecessary fantasies. , but the Moonlight Sacred Scripture is coming, and as your last short time in this world, I hope you can understand one thing.”
"The gentleness and indulgence we show on daily basis have never been directed at the individual 'Tia Yohesti'. Even all the insiders in the church have hated you to the bone all the time over the years and tried to find ways to bring you down. You remove.”
"After all, if it weren't for your mistake, the goddess would have completed her resurrection long ago."
"But now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in telling you this."
"Take her to the Gap of the Divine Moon. Be careful not to hurt the goddess's container."
"In addition, remember to adjust the effect of the painful illusion to the maximum power, and try to see if you can completely eliminate this 'error' in the container before the consciousness of the bright moon comes."
Still not awake?
In the room, looking at the sleeping boy lying on the bed, Sirena frowned slightly.
At this moment, a whole night had passed since the boy fell into coma after hearing the ringing.
Sirena still has official duties to attend to. She has already changed her clothes and is preparing to leave the mansion.
Due to the deal reached between the two, she did not want to expose Lin En's traces for the time being, so she planned to let him stay in the room and make plans when he came back.
Speaking of which, she seemed to have received an invitation from the Church of Silence tonight, inviting her to attend the ceremony and participate in the divine descending ceremony of the Moonlight Sacred Ceremony.
Not only her, but all the powerful nobles in the imperial capital received the invitation.
This is also one of the ways for the Church of Silence to show off its muscles.
There are so many troubles.
Thinking of this, Sirena sighed, and then rang the bell on the table, summoning the head maid who she usually trusted the most.
"Before I come back, don't let anyone enter my room." Sirena whispered, "If the person inside wakes up, no matter what request is made, try to satisfy it. In short, try to hold him down. .”
Hearing this, the head maid nodded, but after taking a look into the room, a trace of doubt suddenly flashed in her eyes.
"But Your Highness, it seems that there is no one in your room?"
Sirena subconsciously turned her head to look, and then froze on the spot.
Just as she was speaking, the young man disappeared on the bed at some point.
(PS: Yesterday, I was dragged to a dinner party on New Year’s Day. I drank too much and was so groggy that I couldn’t write anything all day long. Anyway, I’m really sorry. I beg everyone’s forgiveness. I’ll make up for the missing updates later.) < br>
