Chapter 574 I do (two chapters in one)
In the largest conference hall of the city government building, dozens of people gathered together.
Among these people were not only more than a dozen cultists from both sides, but also observers from the Watch, senior figures from the four major churches, and even Her Royal Highness the Princess and Duke Wein.
Cult leaders, church figures, and high-level politicians all appeared in the same place. This kind of spectacle cannot be said to be unprecedented, but it can be considered extremely rare.
The outside operation was the result of the cooperation of these people. Although Lynch has not yet explained in detail why he felt sure of success, the stretcher still cooperated fully, allowing his idea to smoothly advance to the present. I am afraid that only the safety of Saint Lady Nightingale and the face of a big figure like Sir Lynch Levy, who travels among various forces, can allow these people to gather here at the same time regardless of their safety.
Everything was under control and the final step had been reached. At this time, everyone's eyes were neatly focused on a black crystal ball, staring intently, even holding their breath.
The underground secret magic circle has been completed, and with the help of the earth-burrowing demonic insects, everything is going very smoothly. The underground side is controlled by those evil apostles who are not suitable to appear in the crowd, and the connection point between the entire magic circle and the ground is this crystal ball.
A faint white mist floats in the black crystal ball, as if it is empty inside. The mist gathers into a strange vortex, like a mysterious nebula deep in the universe.
This is the egg of life.
Once the magic circle begins to take effect, the life force donated by the people will be absorbed by the magic circle, and will be sent into this crystal ball, where it will condense into eggs of life. At that time, there is no need to even remove the eggs of life. For Ms. Nightingale, the coverage of strange objects is actually very large. Here, you can offer vitality and beauty together to make up for the lack of the soul of the saint.
But the premise is that there must be enough vitality to condense into an egg of life.
Is it really possible? And can the vitality gained in this way be used?
Although everyone was willing to cooperate, they were still muttering in their hearts, staring at the crystal ball and waiting for the moment when the answer would be revealed.
However, the vortex in the crystal ball rotated steadily, neither fast nor slow, with no reaction visible, and the crystal ball itself was motionless.
One on the left and one on the right, Lynch's two hands were held, one was rough, the other was soft, which was the support from Diana and Natalie.
The palms of both hands were flushed with heat, and it was obvious that the two ladies were not in a calm mood.
“We believe in you, you will definitely win.”
The countess did not dare to take her eyes off the crystal ball for a moment. She was indeed nervous for Ms. Nightingale, but she was also nervous for Lynch was nervous. This was related to the bet between Mr. Lynch and the cultists. Although she believed in Lynch, she was still extremely nervous when she saw the crystal ball showing no reaction.
The police officer on the side snorted coldly, remembering the bet when they first met. This guy still likes gambling so much and has never lost. It is not worth worrying about him at all.
Then with this thought in her mind, her fingers kept digging at the handle of the sword. She almost broke the rare object that could not destroy its properties. Finally, she couldn't help it any longer, so she continued to ask: "Is it really okay?"
"I trust my judgment." Lynch was the most certain one. Although he was also staring at the crystal ball, he at least remained normal.
“Because you believe in the brilliance of humanity and the hymn of courage?”
“No, I believe in something else, which is the systematization of knowledge accumulated by countless people over thousands of years. The system formed after the summary. "
Lin Qi smiled and explained softly that this was actually the most basic psychological technique in his previous life, which was often used in marketing, MLM, and even fraud.
First let people participate. As long as you participate, you are basically already hooked.
Then use small profits to make people relax their vigilance, and the sense of accomplishment and gain will make people more involved. When the goal is completely entered, continue to create some small setbacks that can show hope, so that people increase their investment bit by bit until The investment accumulates to a certain level, and finally the real requirements are released all at once.
Even those smart people in the market in previous lives, most of them did not know how to stop losses in time, and they were stuck in the quagmire and it was difficult to get out.
What’s more important is that these are just inducements, taking advantage of people’s psychological weaknesses, inducing people to change their perceptions and ideas, to actively invest more in trying to make money, and even fight with anyone who stops them. urgent.
Essentially, they are actively devoting their life force from the heart for a noble goal. There is no more noble or beautiful behavior than this. What Lynch did was just provide them with an environment and conditions that gave rise to their noble ideas.
However, these are still a bit too advanced for people in this world, so he did not explain them in detail to the two ladies. He just held their hands and stared at the black crystal ball with squinted eyes.
The crystal ball remains unchanged, as most of the citizens of the entire Rhine City are entangled.
Do you really want to listen to the pastor’s advice and devote your life to Ms. Nightingale?
In the dead silence, the people were in extreme confusion.
We just want to live the rest of our lives peacefully, why should we pay the price of our lives for such a thing?
Although the priest would not lie, and he should really only be weak for a few days, it sounds very dangerous.
Is it really worth it?
Of course it is not worth it. Many citizens came to the conclusion without thinking. They did not want to continue at all and just wanted to interrupt their prayers and leave.
Then when they were about to take action, these people stopped in unison.
A feeling of unwillingness arises spontaneously.
Just leave like that?
Such a big thing may not be encountered once in a lifetime. Now I have finally participated in it, and even changed the situation with my own strength. This is a sense of accomplishment that I have never enjoyed. If I quit now, I will regret it in the future. For life.
And I have prayed for so long in the early stage and invested all the money in the early stage. If I give up now, won’t the previous investment be wasted? After investing so much, you should at least see the results before quitting.
But, I am really afraid of being fooled.
For a time, people's moods fluctuated and hesitated due to the previous adjustments, but the crystal ball in the conference hall remained the same, unchanged.
"It seems that you lost this time, Mr. Leviv." Kelvin took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, showing a standard businessman's smile, "We have fully cooperated with your request. , try everything to the best of your ability, but as you can see, as I said, it’s ineffective. This is real human nature, it’s so dirty and intoxicating.”
Lynch shook his head and said: "There is no final conclusion about human nature. Between light and darkness, it all depends on how to guide."
"You have already guided, but what is the result?" Kelvin smiled and asked, "The results have said everything." "Your Excellency, Vice-President." Diana inserted into the conversation with a straight face, "The time is not over yet, the turning point may happen at any time, you are too hasty."
"Really? You really think so." Kelvin smiled sarcastically, nodded, "I can wait, no problem, at least I will make Mr. Leviv lose willingly, but I think this It's just a waste of time, the result is actually determined, Mr. Leviev's plan will never come true..."
Wow.
There was a cry of exclamation, which was particularly conspicuous among these powerful figures in the city. When Kelvin turned around, he saw everyone staring at the crystal ball with surprised faces.
The vortex in the sphere suddenly trembled slightly, then trembled again.
Whoosh.
Everyone’s eyes turned to Kelvin, with questions in their eyes: What is going on?
"This, this, this..." As the creator of the secret magic circle, Kelvin looked like he had seen an evil god, with disbelief on his face, "Has the magic circle begun to operate? Is there anyone willing? How is that possible? No, this is definitely a special case. It’s just one or two people who were confused for a moment. Yes, you can see that the whirlpool is spinning so fast that there is almost no movement. This shows that there is very little life force and it is not enough to promote the Fa. If the array is operating normally, it is even more impossible to form an egg of life. This is just a farce. Just watch, it will stop soon."
"Does this count?" The countess holding the cat pointed at the crystal ball and smiled lazily, "It's so ugly that you don't want to admit failure, Kelvin."
Kyle Wen clenched his fists tightly, his expression was extremely complicated, it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. Just as Countess Hathaway said, the vortex in the crystal ball was gradually accelerating from the moment it started, without stopping at all.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible.”
However, it is possible.
In the newspaper square of the River Valley District, a young female reporter wearing a men's vest suddenly jumped onto the high platform, waved the peaked cap in her hand, and loudly replied to the pastor preaching here: "I am willing, let alone the vitality, even if I am willing to sacrifice my life.”
"Someone once fought against countless unknown beings to protect me. In order to save me from the abyss of despair, he faced the threat of death and the indescribable terrifying existence. But I couldn't do anything to help, so I could only hide. Watching from a distance, feeling the anxiety and unwillingness alone.”
“I’m tired of being an indifferent bystander. I don’t want to watch others fight for me anymore. I didn’t have it before. Choice, but now that I have the opportunity, I want to do my part to protect myself and everyone. And you? Do you still want to watch? It's just a little life force that I am willing to offer to fight for us. Your Excellency, I will do whatever it takes!"
As she spoke, the female reporter took the lead in kneeling down on the high platform without looking at the hesitant crowd, and opened her heart wholeheartedly.
“I do.”
At the entrance of the ancient and luxurious school, a young female student rushed out of the school gate, bowed deeply to the priest at the door, and stood in front of the crowd of spectators. He said loudly in his eyes:
"When I was at my most dangerous, there was someone who stood in front of me and blocked all dangers for me with his generous back. When I was most afraid, there was someone who was willing to protect me, comfort me, and save me from fear and fear. Rescued from despair."
"From the moment the problem was solved, from the moment I was dug out of the collapsed building and saw the sun again, I swore to the goddess of the night that if there was a chance in the future. , I must do my best to protect others like that person."
"Now, the opportunity has arisen, and I will not let go of this opportunity. I am willing to devote my life to Nanding. Ms. Geer, she is only weak for a few days, so what if she is weak for a lifetime."
Pfft.
As he spoke, the young female student knelt down, ignoring the dead silence behind her.
"I do."
The groups of newsboys have stopped running. Their mission has been completed. They found a nearby place with many people to stop and listen to the pastor's preaching.
At this time, the little girl with blond hair walked out of the group of children without fear, faced everyone's surprised eyes, and shouted loudly.
“After my father died inexplicably, I became very cold and crazy. I hated everyone, I hated the world, I refused everyone’s help, and I refused any help from others. Give. I believe that this world is indifferent and has no warmth except for mothers.”
“But someone told me with practical actions that there is still hope and warmth in this world, and there are people who are willing. Reach out and pull me out of the abyss. Someone is willing to do their best to help me, educate me when I make mistakes, and protect me with my body when I am in danger. I don’t want to be the same person anymore. To be a person like him, I also want to be able to proudly say to him one day that I am not only fighting for myself, but I can also contribute to the world and other people.”
"However, I am just a child. I can't do anything. I am not willing to accept it. Now, the opportunity has finally come. Lord, God, no matter who it is, you can take my life force. I am willing to do my best. Give whatever you can, stand behind Grandma Saint, and protect the world like that person."
As she spoke, the blond girl knelt down decisively under the complicated eyes of everyone, and followed her. Compared to the adults behind them who had already stood up from kneeling in prayer and were timidly trying to leave, they looked particularly dazzling.
For a moment, these people stood there awkwardly, neither advancing nor retreating.
Scenes like this are happening constantly in the vast and huge city.
People who have been helped and cared for by others finally remember the gratitude and longing they once felt in the past.
If no one helped us, would we still be alive today? Do we really have to be so selfish and only think about ourselves? Can't you, like those who have helped us, do your best to protect others?
No, we can.
So, they stood up and took the lead in showing their courage and brilliance.
Behind them, driven by Lynch's psychological offensive and role model, more and more people knelt down to pray again, opened their hearts, and were willing to dedicate their vitality to the Holy Spirit. Your Excellency, please stand together to fight against this horrific plague.
The whole city becomes more and more determined and fearless, and the vortex in the crystal ball turns faster and faster, becoming more and more obvious, until...
Bang, the crystal ball suddenly shattered, and the invisible vortex inside became material, appearing in the real world, spinning at high speed, exuding huge vitality.
The egg of life is condensing.
