Chapter 2467: Prologue before the Expedition
“I didn’t pay much attention to it at first.”
"But until I realized that every time this happened, my memory would go blank for a short time, I had no idea why I behaved like this."
She was calm as if she was telling a distant story.
"Perhaps this may not mean anything to others, but it's different for me. In the operation of precision machinery, even the slightest unnoticed change may mean that there is a problem somewhere deep down. This may happen to those old machines, but it should never happen to me."
"Because no matter what I did, there was always a set of logically rigorous underlying data chains supporting my soul, but this time, I couldn't find the reason."
Lynn's eyes were fixed on her.
His heart also trembled violently under this gaze.
Silver Fantasy raised her head and looked at the young man in front of her. She gently grasped the blanket on her chest and said:
"I don't want to speculate without reason. I really don't want to, but I have to consider the worst. Did their attack also make me infected with the gaze of disaster? Have I also been... corrupted?"
Lin En grabbed her wrist, his eyes sharp, and gritted his teeth:
"Don't make any unwarranted associations!"
“I’m not associating.”
She looked quietly into his eyes.
"I'm just scared."
Because their corruption is almost pervasive, they have no idea how many corrupt people there are among the jailers, but even within their own legion, there are signs of corruption spreading, and more and more "ghosts" are appearing.
And they still have not been able to figure out the source of this corruption, and how it spreads and controls a person's mind.
"I have inquired about the captain's deputy and learned about his life. Before he suddenly rebelled, he was a follower of the captain and had lived in this hell for countless years. The captain knew him inside and out. After joining the legion, he did not do anything out of the ordinary, but he still suddenly rebelled."
"I can only guess that perhaps this influence will subtly change your will, and then make you suddenly attack when it is time to use you."
She told the story.
She reached out and hugged Lin En, her cold cheek pressed against his chest, her eyes staring blankly at the wall on one side.
"You know what scares me the most?"
"You can't sense the pollution in me, even though we were so close just now. If I am worrying too much, then I would rather this is just a ridiculous joke I made, but I don't want to gamble on this joke, and I don't want my momentary luck to lead to a terrible result at some point in the end."
Because even the God King and the jailer can be corrupted.
So what are they?
Her cold fingers clutched his chest tightly.
Lin En suddenly grabbed her wrist, tighter than ever before, even making her feel a burst of pain. He gritted his teeth, and at that moment, the surging power of the First Born blew up a wild yellow sand on his body, along her wrist, and instantly invaded her body.
The violent power of the First Born flowed along every bit of her skin and every inch of her meridians, continuously gathering in her body.
Like a frenzied beast, it desperately searched for any possible abnormality in her body.
but.
Nothing at all.
He even directly and aggressively invaded her soul and will, trying to find any trace of corruption in it, but in the end he still found nothing.
"No……"
He muttered and sat down suddenly.
"If there is, I will definitely be able to find it. You are overthinking it... There will be no corruption."
Silver Fantasy didn't say anything, just looked at the man quietly.
But in fact, he knew that if he used the power of the First Born, he could easily capture the corruption that was spreading among them, then the City of Night would not be infiltrated, and their legion would be pure.
She finally stretched out her slender fingers towards him.
Gently covering his neck.
Lowered his head.
Her forehead touched his chin and her fingers clenched tightly.
"Give me some protection, Lin En. With your current ability, you can kill me instantly... I don't know what will happen in the future, but I hope that if one day I really lose control, before I cause more damage, I hope someone... can give me a quick and clean death."
Lynn's body trembled violently.
"Of course, if possible... I really hope that this is just a misunderstanding and I am just worrying too much. If that's the case, then there's no need to worry anymore."
"But before that..."
She raised her head and looked up at his cheek.
"I will strip away my origin for you as soon as possible. I will give up my identity as the God of All Things. This will be considered as my last effort."
……
……
And it was not until that moment that he finally understood.
Why was she no longer a mechanical body? Why did she bleed when she hugged him, and the huge scar could not fade away.
Because after returning to hell, she has been doing the same thing.
That is to strip away one's past, and with the help of the power of the half-step godhood, completely force the origin of ether out of one's body...
In a sense, this is even another way of changing one's destiny.
But all this.
All of this is just to enable him to complete the final completion of the Trinity at some point.
……
Lynn finally left.
Even though he was reluctant to leave and wanted to stay and be with her countless times, perhaps if that possibility really happened, he would be able to respond.
But he had to leave.
The greatest protection he could give her was the remaining fire in his body.
If corruption really existed, then perhaps the fire he left behind could at some point clear away the dust for her and prevent the worst possible moment from coming.
boom--
In the alley outside the mechanical area, Lin En punched the wall and clenched his teeth.
The black fog in the sky is like the pressing gloom and despair, which makes you breathless and forces you to face the darkness that seems to have no end.
It was drizzling.
But it seems like this is fate.
Before you reach the end, there will always be countless difficulties blocking your way, ready to crush you on this road.
But he finally raised his head and faced the dark clouds in the sky.
He clenched his fists tightly.
"See you in the divine world."
