Chapter 549: The Shining Trioctahedron
Lin Qi found that he was being teased again.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that there was no 'they' at all. Except for Chairman Ole, everyone was busy and no one paid attention to him.
Natalie had long been used to him being in a daze periodically. When she saw him dazed, she immediately stood in front of him and blocked everyone. The first thing Lynch saw when he came back to his senses was her straight back, which made him feel sad. Feeling moved, he quietly reached out and held her rough palm.
The police officer shook her hand but failed to shake it off. She turned back and glared at him. Her cheeks were slightly red and she let him hold her hand.
Lin Qi then saw the surrounding environment clearly. The light of miracle was still floating in the blazing flames on the platform. The flames emitted bright light, but they could not hide the colorless and qualityless light of the miracle. Pure light.
Four mid-level priests stood at the four corners of the high platform, carefully controlling the secret method. The blue flames kept licking the ancient medicine box, making the medicine box exude the purest brilliance every moment.
Twenty volunteers from the Tribulation Church are already in place. These ladies in white robes knelt in a circle around the light of miracles. Everyone closed their eyes and lowered their heads, with their hands and fingers intertwined. Holding each other's chests, keeping this posture motionless, a light emitted from each person, connected with the miraculous light in the fire.
Lin Qi felt a little depressed, because the scene in front of him reminded him of a scene he had seen before.
On the night I just traveled through time, in the living room of Randall's house, when the group of servants were expelled from the strange object, they used a similar form to surround the statue of the ancient flicker, and then turned into eight clouds of dust. Only the heads remained.
In the final analysis, no matter how noble the purpose is, it is still a sacrifice. For a group of people to dedicate themselves in exchange for the benefit of more people. People around them take it for granted. Even Natalie, who maintains order, is used to it. , but is this really good?
The experience of almost becoming a sacrifice made Lynch a little confused for a while, but the strength from his hand woke him up from his confusion.
It was Natalie holding his hand, her once sharp eyes full of comfort.
“This is indeed a sacrifice, and it is the thing you hate the most, but if you think about it again, similar situations are happening every moment in this world.”
Hiss, think about it carefully, not only in this world, but everywhere in the world is not like this? Even in my hometown, many things still require many innocent people to sacrifice their own interests to create happiness for more people. Although it has various names, isn't it essentially still a naked sacrifice? Only the sacrifices were different.
"Each of us is actually doing the same thing, dedicating our own interests and what we cherish in exchange for everything we think is worth it. As long as it is not forced but takes the initiative, then this is an exchange of equal value. This is order." The police officer suddenly squeezed Lynch's paw with force and said sinisterly, "So, do you want to destroy the order?"
"Break it into pieces. "
Lin Qi grinned, but the corners of his mouth were raised higher than a cat's tail.
"Humph, why are you laughing?" The police officer rolled her eyes at him, but she couldn't help but sigh softly, "This is their own choice, we can't help them, we can only wish them the least price they have to pay." "Okay."
"At least they won't die," the voice of Chairman Ole came from the side. He has been sitting here and is the last line of defense during the whole ceremony. "It's just that a lot of good things will be lost. "
"Family, friendship, love and the like?" Lin Qi bowed slightly to the old chairman, "So how can this kind of thing be taken away?"
"No one knows the method, but in the mysterious world, there are too many means to achieve the goal." The chairman said regretfully, "This is already the mildest price. I doubt whether such a price can drive the light of miracles." Let it neutralize some of the disease's power."
"But hasn't it already begun?" "It is said that it is just the beginning, and it depends on the subsequent development." The chairman showed a strange expression, "And, If you go to a restaurant to eat and the boss lets you go without paying enough, then the most likely possibility is..."
"What is it?"
"It's nothing, I don't know. By the way, what happened up there just now, the Archbishop ran up there in such a hurry."
I am the only broken dog in the world. One is enough. How can you learn it? And can you be more blunt when changing the topic?
Lin Qi muttered something dissatisfied, and then repeated everything above.
"Belief barrier? This is similar to absolute defense. As long as it is turned on, it is almost impossible to break through. The supreme power? Even if you really use the divine body to guide the will of the gods to come, it will be almost impossible to break through, unless In an extremely special situation." The chairman teased, "The problem is that the faith barrier consumes a lot of money. Even for the Church of Dark Night, Archbishop Trinleis is so cruel. It seems that the accident just now also caused him. "It's a huge pressure."
"What is it?" Lynch asked, "The archbishop can't tell."
"A black crystal, an irregular polyhedron with red stripes on it, right?" Chairman Ole muttered, twirling his beard, "It should be a shining cubehedron."
"???" Lynch felt that he had learned Randese like a dog, and he just didn't understand the meaning of this string of names.
"Because this is not originally Rand language, it is the Guraire language of the Second Age. Rand language was just forcibly dismantled and translated. In short, these are the coordinates left by an evil god named Night Demon. It can temporarily summon the Night Demon's will to the present world. Although it is only for a moment, it is enough to destroy this ritual and wipe out all ordinary people in Rhine."
"Are they crazy?" Lin Qi gritted his teeth after hearing this. He wanted to throw such a big murder weapon casually, "That Night Demon is also a very powerful evil god?"
"He is a person who is said to have One of the identities of a thousand powerful evil gods, that ancient evil god is said to be the most active of the three oldest evil gods, but... what happened to you? "
"I probably know why I am. That thing feels familiar." Lin Qi's eyes twitched. "It seems that the guy who likes to watch the excitement has no intention of quieting down and has found a new target. She seems to be quite powerful. If it is her supreme power, she can force it. Pass through the barrier of faith? ”
"Of course, but we have to start from the inside. I won't give them a second chance." Archbishop Trinleth also hurriedly returned, patted Lynch on the shoulder and said, "The barrier of faith has been opened, and it is concentrated in this room." Around the safe house, unless they find other ways to sneak in, the security here is not a problem. Now it's up to Ms. Nightingale and the others. I hope everything goes well. By the way, why haven't I seen anyone else around you? A lady?”
“She went to help me with something, and it may take three or four hours to get back.”
Lin Qi just smiled and didn’t say much. .
"I also need you to do something for me."
Huh? As soon as Lynch turned his head, he saw that Ms. Nightingale, who had closed her eyes to pray, had opened her eyes at some point and waved to him.
