I play prophet in Salvation Organization

Chapter 208 Dilemma

Bering regretted it a little.

I have to admit that just now he still expressed some "surprise" and even "horror" emotions outside.

God knows how confused Bering was just now.

This feeling even shocked Bering even more than Zou Ye's sudden "confession" to himself.

At least Bai Ling knew that at that time Zou Ye would say that it was because he was mentally ill and he chose to play in a roundabout way, which was a kind of strategy.

However, the current battle...

He really hadn't seen it.

Bering even began to regret why he didn't use the prophecy ability back then.

If I had known that the ferryman would say such "words of tigers and wolves", I should have observed the future in advance, and then avoided it. By the way, he was right...

Unfortunately, it is too late now.In the real world, the ferryman has already made her request.

Sighing, Bering looked up at the ferryman: "May I ask, what is the reason for your request?"

reason?

The ferryman's explanation was quick: "It's very simple, because it's too boring."

She sat next to Bering, gently pinching Bering's hair, as if there was something in his hair that interested her: "You know what? I've been here for a long, long time ,long time."

"This is the bottom of 'Tartaros', the closest place to Tianyuan," she said frankly, "There is no life here, except for guys like you who occasionally enter Tianyuan due to some special circumstances. It's been a long time since I've seen anyone alive."

"Although it is my duty to ferry certain guys into the abyss of heaven, I have never fulfilled this duty since I was born. If it weren't for the deepest part of my soul that made me stay in Here, I'm afraid I have to wonder if someone gave me a hint or modified my memory."

As if she felt that Bering's hair was not interesting enough, she moved her fingers down and rubbed Bering's face: "I don't know how long it has been, it may be hundreds of years, or even thousands of years? In short, time has always been like this Elapsed. In the beginning, I could still use the sense of mission to strengthen my thoughts, but this mission that never came to the fore later became the source of torture for me.”

"I started to realize that maybe I have to go farther into the future to actually fulfill my role," she said, "but I can't wait that long, thousands of years is too long, and the thought that there could be many more Thousands, countless thousands are waiting for me, and I feel like I'm going crazy."

"But I couldn't go crazy because the voice in my soul told me I had to wait. So I started thinking about having a little fun. Unfortunately, I couldn't leave this place, and I couldn't set my sights elsewhere, so The last fun I can find is only you guys who strayed into the abyss of heaven."

Scratching Bering's face, the ferryman was expressionless but said in a gentle voice, "Do you know how many creatures have strayed here?"

This question was probably not for Bering to answer.

After all, it was also the first time for Bering to come here, so it was impossible to know.

But this point gave Bering a revelation.

That's her, the ferryman, and she doesn't know what's special about Bering yet.

At least she didn't know what Bering's ability was.

Otherwise, she would not use the way of asking and answering herself now.

Sure enough, soon, Bering heard the ferryman saying to himself: "There are four in total."

"The first one was a beast-like guy. At that time, I was still sticking to my own mission, so I just watched with a cold eye. The beast just fell into the abyss of heaven, and soon I couldn't see it."

"After a long time, a second guy came. He seemed to be of the same race as humans, but partly different. I hesitated when I saw that guy. At that time, I was already getting annoyed, so I was hesitant After a while, I finally decided to pull it up."

After a pause, the ferryman continued, "It's a pity, because I pulled the person out of that place for the first time, so I didn't succeed. In the end, I only saved part of that guy."

Ok.

Hearing this, Bering probably guessed what kind of "tragedy" the second guy was...

But he was still listening.

Because he knew that soon, the ferryman would talk about the third one, which was the one before that.

Bering reckoned that he was quite familiar with that person.

Sure enough, soon, the ferryman continued: "Then there is the third one, and the time is much shorter than the interval between the second and the first one. I was going crazy at that time, so I desperately needed someone who could objects of communication."

"When I saw that guy, I tried my best to pull him up carefully. I tried to communicate with him and discuss with him, but maybe because he was not in the right state, so in the end we just had a quick chat. In a very short time, he said that he was going to enter the abyss of heaven."

"I don't care about this. He is just a passer-by to me. It's good to have someone to chat with, no matter who it is. But as a reward for being the first to communicate with me, I will send him away unscathed. into the abyss of heaven, and meet him outside to come back."

Listen to the words of the ferryman.

Bering understood: "Sure enough, the third person is 'Hermes'." '

Originally, he had guessed, but after hearing what the ferryman said, he became more certain of his thoughts.

Also more surprised at the same time.

He really didn't expect that the ferryman could send people into "Heavenly Abyss" and at the same time pull them out...

What a terrible power this is.

You must know that so far, human beings have not even discovered the existence of Tianyuan, and most people don't know anything about it.However, under such circumstances, there actually exists such a guy who can travel between Tianyuan and the real world...

It makes people shudder a little.

In addition, the words engraved in her soul spoken by the ferryman made Bering think deeply.

Over there, the voice of the ferryman continued: "I thought that communicating with people would relieve my boredom, but I was wrong."

“Once the dusty door is opened, it’s difficult to close it again,” she said, “especially for people like us.”

"The long mission, the unpopular world, everything is unbearable for me. Therefore, after a long time after the third person left, I made a decision."

She looked at Bering with gentle eyes: "That is, if a fourth person comes to this place, then I will lock him by my side and let him become a 'beacon' for me to stabilize my mood."

As soon as this sentence is spoken.

Bering, who was still thinking about it, was not good again.

As if he didn't see Bering's mood, the ferryman's voice was a bit cheerful: "Fortunately, I met the fourth person today. I was still worried about how long the fourth person would last, after all, there is no food in this world, no The source of water, if the creature falls here, I am afraid it will leave in a few days like the previous person. But after seeing you, I realized that this is not worth caring about."

Holding Bering's face in his hands, the ferryman finally showed his first smile: "Your life form is very special—as a guy who can move and talk, you seem lifeless to me. This is really a piece of luck. This means that you can stay by my side forever, forever, instead of leaving because of a fragile life."

"I began to feel that this moment is my lucky time. I thought, the existence of this moment must be born for me to meet you. Yes, this is probably the so-called 'fate', when I want to choose a When people are by my side, you just came here, and you are the most perfect choice - you can stay here forever like me, without being troubled by time..."

She said softly: "Yes, this moment is for this reason. This 'fourth candidate' is also due to you. Everything is as planned by fate, it is perfect."

This sentence made Bering feel a little headache.

Coupled with noticing the look in the eyes of the ferryman looking at him, Bering felt that his head, which didn't hurt before, became more painful.

In fact, he also felt that it was too coincidental.

Just when the ferryman wanted to find someone who could accompany him, he, who fit her perfectly from any angle, landed in Tianyuan, and happened to be unable to move and could only stay in this place.

It's really like "fate".

However, this is probably fate for the ferryman, and it is probably a "shackle" for Bering.

Because it is too coincidental, sometimes it is often arranged by people.

Maybe someone just wanted to make Bering stay in this place without moving, so he chose this critical moment to let Bering fall to this place.

After all, various factors indicate that all of this is too fitting, even too precise to be realistic.

But it's a pity.

Now that guy is probably not willing to listen to Bering's explanation.

Seeing the ferryman chanting "fate" from time to time, Bering felt that no matter what he said at this time, he might be refuted by the other party.

Sighing, he decided to change his mind.

"I didn't expect that you are not human, but you also have human-like emotions," he said, "You also feel lonely."

Facing the Bering problem.

The ferryman temporarily stopped his mumbling.

She looked at Bering and said softly, "Of course."

"Humans feel that long-lived species don't feel lonely, purely because of established concepts," she said, "You always say, like humans and ants don't understand each other, short-lived people and long-lived people People can't understand each other."

"But in fact, as long as it is an intelligent life, as long as it has emotions, it will inevitably need to connect with others. This is impossible to cut off no matter what. Even monsters must have sympathy and mutual dependence. The monsters are huddled together. Otherwise, living alone would be too hard."

It can be seen that the ferryman's rhetoric is not particularly good, at least she doesn't talk about some philosophy in a flashy way, but just clumsily talks about her feelings according to her own understanding.

This made Bering couldn't help but sigh again.

It is impossible for him to stay by the ferryman's side.

Let's not talk about how long his own state can last, just the messy things in the human world, if he is not in charge, it will become a mess.

So after hesitating for a moment, he continued to chatter: "during this period of time, do you have any special feelings? For example, what did the person in the past say to you, or did you notice him What's changed?"

listen to him.

The ferryman gave him a deep look, with some complicated meaning in his eyes.

"I know, you want to get information from me," she said, "It was the same with that person before. He always wanted to get a lot of special news from me. You humans are almost the same."

Hearing this, Bering just smiled.

He didn't intend to get any interesting clues from the ferryman, he just wanted to lower her impression score as much as possible.It would be great if she could make her feel a little worse about herself.

But what he didn't expect was.

After the ferryman glanced at him, he said slowly, "But it doesn't matter."

"You are the person of fate, and you are different from the previous ones," she said calmly, "If you want to know, then I will tell you everything, but the premise is that you need to leave me a promise .”

"A promise to never leave here and stay in this place forever," she said, "After leaving this promise, no matter what news you want to know, even the most secret information in Tianyuan, I can Tell you personally."

"So, tell me, what is your decision?"

Looking at the ferryman, listening to her condescending voice.

The original smile on Bering's face faded away.

"This is really...a difficult decision," he said.
