Chapter 242 [Fruit of Paradise] (Unlocked in Chapter 89)
After a long time, the two people’s lips that touched each other slowly separated.
[Hope] Those emerald eyes looked at the blond young man in confusion, and her lips were slightly open, which made her look even more charming.
Her soft and alluring lips were carrying a trace of crystal liquid, as beautiful as pearls, her eyes were shining with an inexplicable light, and there was a faint blush on her cheeks.
"You, you, you...what are you doing..." [Hope] asked Xia Xiu somewhat incoherently.
[Hope]'s hands softly hit the blond young man's chest, and then she gently covered her lips with her hands, feeling the warmth and subtle changes on her lips, her slender and beautiful fingers trembling slightly.
The beautiful little face of the purple-haired woman was like a ripe red apple at this time. She bit her lower lip slightly, looking particularly cute. She opened her mouth slightly, and her emerald eyes were like two A crystal gem exudes a charming brilliance, and the teardrops, as crystal clear as morning dew, sometimes spin around the edges of the eye sockets. In the watery eyes, only the golden figure is reflected alone.
“This is a good night kiss.”
Xia Xiu gently placed his hand on [Hope]’s cheek, his fingertips lightly caressed the corners of the other person’s naturally shiny lips, and She wiped the liquid from her mouth.
"Good night?"
Ahabbate spoke softly and murmured doubtfully.
After she finished speaking, an inexplicable sleepiness came to her heart.
"Get some sleep first."
The blond young man said softly to [Hope], his hand gently caressing the other person's flawless face, he His fingertips felt the smoothness and warmth of her skin, as if touching the delicate silk of spring.
His fingertips gradually wandered over her cheeks, gently sliding along her contours, and his words were like the words of a seductive devil, directly affecting Ahabat on the heart.
"Sleep..."
[Hope]'s emerald eyes showed a hint of exhaustion, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, revealing her helplessness in fighting against sleepiness. She tilted her head slightly, and her long, silky purple hair swayed slightly, as if covering her with an elegant veil.
"Yes, sleep peacefully."
The soft words reached [Hope]'s ears again.
Her eyes narrowed unconsciously. When she was drowsy, her watery eyes had a circle of tiny ripples, and her slender eyebrows were slightly frowned, just like in a painting. Fairy, wandering between dreams and reality. She gently held her cheek, trying to resist the growing sleepiness, but her efforts were unable to resist the heavy sleep.
"Will you... always be by my side?"
[Hope] smacked her eyelids slightly and looked at Xia Xiu with expectation in her tired eyes.
"Yes, I will always be with you." Xia Xiu coaxed the other person in a low voice like a young child coaxing him to sleep.
Gradually, [Hope]'s emerald eyes closed tightly, and the lake-like clear eyes were replaced by soft sleep.
“It’s a puppy to lie to people...”
The corners of her mouth raised slightly, as if she had found comfort in the sweet dream. In this quiet moment, her beauty and innocence were most perfectly interpreted.
Finally, Ahabat's body no longer resisted and slowly leaned against the comfortable blond young man. Her breathing became even and gentle, like a breeze blowing through the flowers.
In the embrace of dreams, [Hope] is immersed in endless tenderness and tranquility.
Looking at [Hope] sleeping in his arms, Xia Xiu stretched out his hand and gently brushed her silky purple hair. The silky-smooth hair twisted and slid around his fingertips. , his fingers slid down along her hairline, and the strands of hair danced on his fingertips like the softest satin.
“I generally don’t lie to people, except in special circumstances, so please forgive me.”
"This is a special situation."
The corners of the blond young man's mouth were slightly raised, revealing the bright smile of a child after a successful prank.
In the original Sarkic dogma, all members of the Sarkic lineage were prohibited from taking the [Fruit of Paradise] in various places based on the [Inner Temple].
There is a description of the [Fruit of Paradise] in the Sarkic scripture "The Book of the Fall".
In the very beginning, after Ion ascended to God, he placed the sarkic holy land [Inner Temple] on the boundless beast.
He, no, at this stage people call him Him.
He put his yearning and fantasy for a perfect paradise on the construction of [Paradise], where He built a world without pain, disease and death, where everything is so beautiful, even the rivers Milk and honey flow, and in this land, people enjoy endless happiness and contentment.
Ion used his own hands to lay out the ideal country for mankind there.
However, this [Paradise] is built on boundless evil beasts.
When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you.
The boundless evil beast has fruits that humans cannot eat. The fruits are plump and juicy, full of all kinds of extraordinary temptations. It can make people who stay in [Paradise] know [the way of flesh and blood] and know the essence of "eternal life". A bondage, a tragedy caused by Ion's deep love for humanity.
When someone ate the fruit because of the temptation of [the beast], and when people who regained consciousness looked at their savior and their "god" with doubt, confusion, and sadness, Yan hesitated. .
In the fight against the boundless evil beast, Ion's hesitation was fatal. After he [ascended to God], he should have understood that he could not relax in his life.
Although He is called the Immortal Father, the Heart of Deception, the Light of All Lights, the Savior and even God by the world, His essence is a God-Eater, and He steals the power of gods. The thief will continue to fight against the evil beast throughout his life and cannot stop for a moment.
So, a moment's hesitation is eternal hell.
The deformed flesh-and-blood enemy appeared in front of Ion. Those people were once his people, students, and friends...
When Ion slaughtered the flesh-and-blood enemy with tears in his eyes, As He stood in the burning Paradise, He looked around and saw the suffering of those whom He had hoped to free, and realized that their great works had been buried by His hand.
He looked at them with tears streaming down his face.
The above are all taken from the legendary description of the [Fruit of Paradise] in Sarkic's "Book of the Fallen".
In addition to these mysterious and mysterious statements, the true function of [Fruit of Paradise] is as follows:
One: Class promotion. Two: Human body training.
Three: Divine Devouring.
The first level promotion is only effective if taken before [Third Level·Wise Man], and can only be promoted once in a lifetime.
The second human body training belongs to the [Forbidden Human Body] training. It is somewhat similar to [The Little Man in the Bottle], both of which create extraordinary beings that transcend worldly rules.
The third article of Divine Devouring, well, 99.98% of the members of the Sarkic lineage should not be able to use it. This article sounds like a purely mentally retarded regulation. Who would erase the hard-earned divinity.
Oh, by the way, there is a contradiction in [Fruit of Paradise]. It has great malice towards "singles" and "couples".
Sounds a bit weird, but that’s exactly what it is.
First of all, the best way to take [Fruit of Paradise] is for one man and one woman to take it, and the best way to take it is to share one.
If a single dog takes it, although it will not die, there is a high probability that it will deform into a strange and strange species.
And it is not very friendly to "couples". The best way mentioned earlier is for a man and a woman to take it, but this is best for one of them.
In other words, although both parties can make a choice when taking it together, after making the choice, both parties must face the consequences of one party gaining and the other losing.
And the consequences for the one who suffers are greater than for a "single dog" to take it alone. Generally, those who bear the price will fall into the curse of eternal sleep. There are rumors that this is the curse engraved by Ion in the [Inner Temple], and some Rumor has it that this is a curse spread by [His Covered Infinity] itself.
No matter what, it is basically impossible to eat the [Fruit of Paradise] intact.
In the previous life, the [Fruit of Paradise] was given various unique names by players. Among singles, it was jokingly called: single dog species change fruit, single person I chose the distortion fruit, no The fruit of my girlfriend’s choice not to be a human being·······
In the eyes of lovers, the name of the "Fruit of Paradise" is much simpler. It is generally called "the fruit that will lead to promotion and wealth, and the death of your wife (husband)."
Xia Xiu’s original plan was to summon the [Church of Bones], then kick his Alice to the [Inner Temple], and exile her outside the main world of Terra. He has never thought about practicing the [Fruit of Paradise]. In his future life plan, there is no option to take the [Fruit of Paradise].
However, the plan still couldn't keep up with the changes, and he finally chose to take the [Fruit of Paradise] together with [Hope].
Because Xia Xiu is a member of the Sarkic spectrum, and [Hope] is not, he has the right to prioritize making choices for the other party. During that long kiss, he made the choice for [Hope]. ] chose the divine devouring of the third law, and at the same time, the price of [Fruit of Paradise] was borne by [Hope].
This operation sounds a bit disdainful, but for Ahabat, who is about to become a god, it can only be said to be drizzle.
What Xia Xiu did was the optimal solution. In order to suppress the divine power of [Lord of the Body Kingdom] in [Hope]'s body, he could only use the power of [Paradise] to suppress the opponent. Now the divinity of [Fruit of Paradise] Devouring and his own eternal sleep curse temporarily blocked the awakening of the godhead in [Hope]'s body.
And even if the opponent's godhead awakens, [Hope] will not be erased under the eternal sleep curse of [Fruit of Paradise]. She will fall asleep as a sub-personality under the influence of the curse.
Xia Xiuxiu used the characteristics of [Fruit of Paradise] to allow Ahabat and the sleeping Lilit to achieve [separation of human and divine personality].
At this moment, the blond young man bent down gently and easily picked up the sleeping purple-haired girl with both hands. While he was picking her up, a piece of parchment with bright red fonts was scrolling on it. Floating in front of him.
【Ya···Da 4···Both Reminder····】
[Detected...level...can be promoted]
[Blocking external...supreme divinity...interference...]
[Whether to choose promotion, this This promotion takes thirty days. 】
Of course Xia Xiu chose to be promoted.
【Confirmed】
After Xia Xiu made his choice, the simple parchment turned into a ray of white light and flew into his right hand, and then he was immersed in it. The great power of his original breakthrough performance disappeared again, and his connection with the genealogy was cut off again.
Click~Click~Click~
When the parchment entered Xia Xiu's body, the church that had been trained into the [Fruit of Paradise] began to be overwhelmed and began to collapse. The seven supports The worm pillars of the [White Bone Church] began to crack, and cracks began to appear staggered on their bodies.
With [Hope] in his arms, Xia Xiu looked at the [Bone Church] that was beginning to collapse. He whispered to himself:
"The last step is completed. After that, you can retire.”
The blond young man was reciting something in obscure language in the gradually collapsing [Bone Church], and after he finished reciting, something kept creeping in front of him, and something was being constructed rapidly.
Boom——
A huge roar suddenly sounded.
Pengpengpeng——
Along with the roar, there was a violent rumble of the ground, and the entire [Bone Church] began to become crumbling.
There are more and more cracks in the seven worm pillars, and this terrifying church is gradually collapsing.
Boom——
Seven huge worm-shaped pillars collapsed, and broken bones and dust filled the air.
The boulder hit the ground, causing a deafening roar, like the end of the world. The surrounding ground cracked, and dark cracks spread like a spider web, swallowing up this mysterious realm.
In an instant, this bone church was reduced to ruins, leaving endless terror echoing in the night.
The red moon hangs high, and its bright light shines on the ruins of broken walls, giving this desolate world a strange tenderness.
A young man with blond hair and golden eyes stood on the dilapidated stone steps. His handsome face looked even more dreamy and blurred under the red moon.
His hands held a sleeping purple-haired girl in the form of a princess hug, looking as if he was holding a precious flower.
The woman's eyes were closed tightly, her eyelashes trembling slightly, like a sleeping fairy. Her purple hair glowed softly under the red moon, forming a beautiful picture with the blond young man.
They looked particularly harmonious on top of the ruins, like a bright shooting star in the dark night sky.
Xia Xiu lowered his head, and his golden eyes briefly rested on the slightly raised corners of the sleeping woman in his arms. Then he moved his gaze to the three white coffins left in the ruins ahead.
"There is one last step."
