Chapter 51: The naughty nemesis (scroll to read, two chapters in one, one update today)
There is surprisingly little effective information, but Lynch was mentally prepared.
Archbishop Trinleth reminded him that this book is a version for ordinary people to read, and it can only have this roughest introduction.
When he wished he could see a more in-depth version, the Archbishop patted him on the shoulder with a rather strange expression.
"Words are a good carrier of mystery and filth. Any text that involves gods and mysterious content, if you go a little deeper, will be related to the mystery itself, forming a file-like mystery. The two pieces given to you by Wayne This is how a mysterious document came about. Among them, the mysterious document related to the gods is the most mysterious. The level of danger and management method are equivalent to the fourth level, which is what you call destruction level rare objects. Some even directly reach the fifth level. Advent level, are you sure you want me to show it to you?"
Lin Qi turned around and left. He had not lived enough, but before he left, the Archbishop still recommended a few books to him. Dangerous tome.
They are all written "for people to see" and record some theological knowledge that does not touch taboo standards.
There are twelve resurrected main gods, namely:
Sul, Lord of the Sun.
Nyx, Lord of the Night.
Fiona, the Lord of Suffering and Pain.
Tina, the Lord of Fortune.
Kaia, Lord of the Earth.
Xilin, Lord of the Ocean.
Tyr, Lord of War.
Simon, Lord of the Sky.
Flanda, the Lord of Plants.
Mika, the Lord of Joy.
Phil, Lord of Fire and Craftsmanship.
Cello, the Lord of Dust Wind.
However, seeing so many names and the countries that believed in them made Lynch feel dizzy. He forgot while reading, and finally managed to remember the four main gods officially believed in by the Kingdom of Rand, the sun god Sur, Nyx, the God of Night, Fiona, the God of Suffering, and Tina, the God of Wealth, as for the other eight, at most they only have chapels in Rand, and they do not have the authority to open churches and allow churches to move in on a large scale.
"Dang, dang, dang."
The knock on the door interrupted the reading. Looking at the time, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. Lynch threw down the obscure basic theological textbook as if it was an amnesty, and hurried to open the door.
The blonde Mrs. Maggie is standing at the door. She has changed out of her wet skirt. Now she is wearing a simple dress, wearing a gauze hat, and carrying a vegetable basket. It seems that she is going out for shopping. At this time, her cheeks were still slightly red, and she lowered her head and whispered softly: "Mr. Leviv, I'm going to buy groceries. If Martha comes back from school later, please tell her for me."
"Do you need me to come with you?"
"No, no need." Mrs. Maggie lowered her head, "Thank you so much just now."
As she said that, she lifted up her skirt. Qianqian bent his knees, turned around and ran, the thumping footsteps disappearing on the stairs in an instant.
This era is really nice, and this apartment is really nice.
Watching Mrs. Maggie's back disappear with a smile, Lynch returned to the sofa in the living room. His mind was always about the golden hair and wet clothes. It was so messy that he couldn't stand the theology book anymore. Lynch simply picked up another popular science book.
The astronomy book introducing the Red Moon inevitably mentions the Lady of the Red Moon in the First Age. A lot of basic information about the Meteor God in the First Age is often hidden in such popular science books.
In Meteor God, Ms. Luna and her younger sister, the silver girl Artemis, are both the daughters of Nyx, the lady of the night. However, this is a genealogical relationship in a mythological concept. Mother and daughter are only described in a way that humans can understand, not It means that reality is what it is.
Because the First Age is so long ago, most of the myths of the fallen gods have not been handed down at all. In addition, the divine power itself is a highly mysterious and sensitive matter. If it were actually written, it is estimated that no one from the author to the readers would survive. Therefore, Ms. Luna's divine authority was briefly discussed, except that she alone controlled the authority of the Red Moon, and jointly controlled the other eight divine authorities with other gods.
There is no record of the specific authority. In fact, this is what Lynch wants to know most.
Not only can you know what you are looking for in the future, but you can also at least have a clear goal on the long road to immortality.
‘Ms. Luna, can’t you really tell me directly? There is no need for me to research this kind of specific information myself. ’
[I can’t tell you information that mortals can’t understand. I’m sorry, Lynch. 】
'Um? Then I can guess by myself? Lin Qi sighed, inevitably feeling a little unhappy.
But the next moment, he felt a voice ringing in his consciousness.
The moment he felt the sound, his mind went blank and he fell completely into a state of trance. By the time he regained consciousness, more than ten minutes had passed. He only felt tingling pain in his brain and his spirit was still there. He was a little dazed. As for what he just heard, he couldn't understand it at all.
[That's why, I don't need to lie to you, Lynch. Our method of communication cannot be described by your human understanding like the words you read. Words can avoid describing the essence of the content, but with the way we communicate now, what we express directly is the essence. So it’s not that I don’t answer some questions, it’s that you can’t understand them and will cause you harm. Just like you ask me what it is when you wake up, I can't answer you. Otherwise, it will be equivalent to showing the essence to you, which even your special will cannot bear and will make you completely crazy. 】
It seems that human beings do have their limits.
Lin Qi shook his groggy head, knowing that the other party was telling the truth, but this lady, you really don’t need to demonstrate directly, I have a headache.
[You are actually very suspicious, otherwise you would not believe it. So many things can only be understood by yourself. However, our power has a lot to do with our own characteristics and symbolic meaning. You can use your habits to reason. I'll alert you if something goes terribly wrong. 】
Huh?
Lin Qi reopened the astronomy book and tried to infer from the characteristics of the red moon.
The Red Moon is famous for its thick red mist that lingers all year round, so it controls some hidden powers, and maybe some hazy and illusory powers.
She is the moon, so the authority of the moon or moonlight must be indispensable.
Since she appears at night, the authority of sleep or dreams should also be involved, maybe even death.
In addition, it is said that Red Moon is the portal connecting the dreamland and reality, so the authority of the passage or portal, as well as the authority of the mystery of the dreamland itself, should also be related to her.
Leaning on the sofa and flipping through the pages of the book, Lynch's movements became slower and slower, and he yawned one after another.
The books written by these authors are so boring and obscure that they deserve no one to read them.
This was Lynch's last thought, and then his consciousness melted into the warm afternoon sunshine.
He slept soundly until he was awakened by a scratching sound. When he opened his eyes, he saw a ball of blond hair sitting on another sofa.
Mrs. Maggie is back so soon?
But a closer look revealed that it was not Mrs. Maggie, but little Martha. The little thing was sitting next to her. The scratching sound she just heard was that she was playing with her newly bought lighter.
When I was drying the clothes, I put all the odds and ends on the coffee table and confiscated them. This naughty kid was so indifferent that he took a lighter and started playing with it.
It’s broken, I still have my pistol on it.
With a start in his heart, Lin Qi, who was completely sleepless, sat up suddenly.
The revolver was still on the table, obviously untouched, but Lynch's eyes widened and his heart clenched tightly.
I regret my carelessness very much.
This little bastard with no sense of boundaries is holding a ring and putting it on his finger.
The passion of the blazing lady can only be taken off by yourself after wearing it. In other words, if you cannot hold back the pain and pass out, your only option is to be burned alive.
“Stop.”
Lin Qi's eyes were splitting with anger. No matter how unlovable the child was, he still had a life. His crime was not worthy of death, and he did not deserve to die on his own things. He shouted as he threw himself at the little bastard with all his strength.
But he also knew that it was definitely too late.
The little bastard’s movements have already begun. Even though he was alarmed by Lynch’s movement of sitting up, the inertia still allowed the movement of the ring to continue, and he would soon turn into a ball of fire, and then attract himself. Burn.
But Lin Qi still pounced on it. The consequences of his carelessness must at least be remedied with all his strength. The burn will be burned, as long as it is done quickly. Quick.
Bang.
There was a strange feeling in the soul, as if something exploded.
Then the body's speed surged, and the sluggish body rushed out like lightning, clutching the ring tightly the moment it touched the finger.
Phew, saved.
But before he could feel relieved, the body that continued to move forward had already hit him, knocking the little bastard and the sofa to the ground.
“Yeah.” The girl who was suppressed underneath her screamed in terror at this time, kicking and scratching at Lynch, “What are you going to do, let me go, let me go, you beast "
"Beast?" Lin Qi's hands were trembling with fear. If he killed a child because of his carelessness, he would probably feel guilty for many years and be beaten and scolded by the little bastard while he was sweating. , although it didn’t hurt, the anger rushed to the top of his head, with a ferocious smile on his face, and he said viciously, "Okay, I will do something beastly to show you."
With that said, he picked up the struggling Martha and pushed her down on the sofa, then slapped the little bastard on the butt.
Crack.
"I have tolerated you for several days, and I have long wanted to beat you."
Snap.
"I let you take advantage of other people's kindness, I let you rob."
Crack.
"I asked you to hit me with a clay pot. It hurts, don't you know, it hurts just as much as you do now."
Pa.
"I have ten pounds with me. It doesn't matter if you throw it at me. If I let you take the money away, let's see if I can beat you to death."
"Wow, wow, help." The girl was stunned at first and didn't say anything for a long time. Then she started screaming and crying at the top of her lungs. She twisted her body desperately and kicked her legs back, trying to break away from Lynch's control. , "Mom, help, wow~~"
Pa.
"Mom? Yeah...Luna can't protect you, I said so."
The more Lynch beat him, the angrier he became. However, except for the first few blows, which he used very hard, his rationality later came back and he had already reduced his strength, so that he would not really hit the child. However, none of the slaps that should be slapped could escape him.
Crack.
"Cry, scream, despair, no one will come to save you even if your throat is broken, your mother is out."
Snap.
"How dare you set up a trap to harm me. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I wouldn't have been able to escape by jumping into the Rand River."
Pa.
"You did something wrong yourself, and you want to force me to help you hide it from your mother."
"Wow, you agreed on your own, I didn't force you."
Pa.
"You dare to talk back, you are a naughty kid who deserves a beating. If you do something wrong in the future, I will beat you up to see if you have a long memory."
"Wow, wow, I want to make mom Drive you away."
Crack.
"Okay, then I will type out all my future scores first and let you remember them once. I will see if you still dare to do bad things."
"Wow, so are you, and so are the police. You guys These disgusting adults all say we are wrong, but you tell us what is right, wow, wow, how do we know what to do if you just say we are wrong, wow wow wow."
Lynch's hand raised. He paused in the air, and felt a trace of sympathy in his heart. This child's father died early, his mother was overprotective, and he could be targeted by cultists at any time. There was no normal tutoring environment at all. It would be okay if he was a little stupid, but he is so smart that it would be weird not to go astray.
It's not entirely her fault.
Crack.
Then it’s even more important to educate her so that she can have a good memory.
"How dare you make excuses? You don't know it's wrong. How do you know you want me to hide it for you and your mother?"
"Wow, wow, wow, my mother will be sad."
Pa.
"You actually know better than anyone else. Let me tell you, everything you don't want your mother to know and everything you think will make your mother sad is wrong. Think about it for yourself, how many things have you done in the past two years that will make your mother sad? She knows how uncomfortable it will be to make her mother sad. "
"Wow, wow, I don't want my mother to be sad."
Pa.
"I'm telling you, you have to be responsible for your own actions, and you have to admit your mistakes when you do something wrong. If you keep hiding it like this, if you make an irreparable mistake, your mother will probably be so sad that she will jump into the Rand River. I If I don’t beat you until you can’t walk today, you will still dare to do this in the future.”
“Wow, wow, wow, I was wrong, I won’t dare to do it again, wuwuwu.”
“ Really remember? ”
"Really, wow, I don't dare anymore, stop fighting, wuwuwu, I don't dare anymore."
Pa.
I raised my hand, so I slapped it down again, and then I heard someone talking at the door.
"Hey, why are you still hitting me?"
Lin Qi's hair was on fire. He immediately thought of which one would hurt more, the kitchen knife or the frying pan. When he turned his head, he saw Mrs. Maggie. Staring at him with red eyes.
The reason why he didn't rush up to fight him was because he was being held by Officer Natalie, covering his mouth. The struggle was not violent, but the look in his eyes was still fierce, which made Lynch feel guilty.
The person who spoke just now was Officer Natalie, who was looking troubled at the moment, while Lynch helplessly looked at his hand and the girl who was struggling under his hand, and smiled awkwardly: "Uh, it's easy. "
After saying that, he let go of the little bastard and jumped aside as if he was electrocuted. Mrs. Maggie, who was let go, immediately screamed and rushed over. Instead of looking for Lynch, she The daughter was held tightly in her arms.
“Is it okay, is it okay, woo woo, that’s too harsh, woo woo.”
"What's going on?" Officer Natalie approached Lynch and asked in a low voice, "I knocked on the door for a long time and no one opened it. It seems that you were busy at the time. Martha was quite obedient. Why did you beat her up?" Her? "
"Huh, she secretly wore my ring and almost scared me to death. When I move to a new place, I will definitely get a safe to put away dangerous things." Lynch shook her hair. The painful hand looked at the little bastard who was crying hoarsely and had already taken a breath. He still didn't know how to stir up trouble. He had to change places, otherwise this woman would probably have to go under the knife. Lin Qi hurriedly ran to the window and sat on it. "No more, I'm going to run away first, otherwise there will be a murder. Remember to pack my things for me. I'll first..."
Before I could jump, , the girl's cry really started again.
"Wow, mom, Uncle Lynch, I was wrong, I'm sorry, woo woo, I'm sorry, mom, I shouldn't have lied to you..."
Huh?
The outstretched legs were retracted.
