Chapter 183 The Epitome of Tragedy

Although he did not participate in the so-called team building activities, McCarroll was still in a good mood today.

The youngest, Nalo, is 9 years old.

This means that she can be freed from the task of raising these children for up to six years, and if the big boss is not on a whim, she can also hoard some savings.

'Lex is about to graduate from university, and the intern salary is 3 pounds a week. If he has a conscience, he may be able to send home 1 pound a week. '

'Loren and Martha have two more years, it doesn't matter, soon.'

"Maybe it won't take 6 years. If this job lasts for 3 years, I can live my own life." McCarroll's heart began to be filled with daydreams about the future, and her steps were brisk, but after a while she stopped slowly.

What's the point of living?She suddenly felt a little tired, only feeling a surge of exhaustion.

McCarroll's father was a Loen soldier who died in the Southern Continent's colonial war, and his mother eloped with an Intis with a pension.Mai was adopted by the widow of a merchant, and the old lady was also a retired teacher.

McCarroll's literary foundation comes half from that kind old lady and half from school. She used to be a writer a few years ago, but anyone who knows about it has almost returned to the kingdom of the gods.

At that time, as a well-known newcomer, she had serialized two novels, about love stories about girls' fantasy.

Thanks to the royalties, she has an undisputed amount of income in the past, and she can be regarded as a leader among the common people, although these are not comparable to the rising star Forsi who has emerged in the past few years.

Perhaps the old woman was afraid of being lonely, so she adopted several children when McCarroll was studying in a foreign university. Gradually, some people began to abandon the children at her door.

Before the adoptive mother returned to the kingdom of the gods, she asked her if she would raise all the children for her and send them to school.

No babies, just 5 and 6 year olds.

At that time, the young McCarroll agreed without thinking too much.

The old woman's savings and her royalties could have been maintained until the last few adopted children grew up.

However, the implementation of the Corn Law made the cost of living higher and higher. At that time, foreign grains did not have an impact on the Loen market. It happened that workers were unemployed and inflation occurred.

Under the pressure of reality, everyone suspended school for a while, until McCarroll met that man—Tennyson Gilbert.

A Sequence 8 mind reader.

The learned and gentle Tennyson first wins the trust of the children, then walks into McCarroll's heart, and finally defrauds her of all the gold pounds and even prepares to sell her.

On that day, McCarroll drank the Sequence 7: Psychiatrist potion that Tennyson obtained through human trafficking and fraud.

In the memory of his mind, he suddenly looked around in a daze. This was the last stop of the public carriage, and he had to walk for about 10 minutes from home.

To be honest, that place is not considered home, it is just a gathering place of obligations and responsibilities that make her feel tired, and she usually has to use her extraordinary ability to pay attention to the mental health of this group of children
She is not kind, but stupid. Stupid enough to think that the love story in the book will happen in reality, stupid enough to think that there will be pies in the sky.

Now that stupidity has become a potion and entered her stomach, it is time for her to pay for the stupidity.

Thank the king for recovering the right to education, promulgating the "Elementary Education Act" and establishing public elementary schools. This is another large expenditure. Although Backlund's life is getting worse every day.

Without these children, she would have had a very easy life, right?He also wouldn't listen to Tennyson's nonsense that he could become a shareholder of a school for only 800 pounds, and he could go to school for free.

McCarroll pinched himself, and his eyes recovered a little. There are quite a few houses in this suburban neighborhood, but they are all scattered.

There are many half-unemployed poor people working part-time jobs and hungry children who are driven away on the street.

Ten minutes later, McCarroll looked at the houses not far away and sighed.

"elder sister!"

She looked back and saw 13-year-old Wei Na and 10-year-old Levi, each carrying a basket in their hands.

"What a coincidence." McCarroll smiled, "What delicious food did you buy?"

"Black bread." Wei Na lifted the tablecloth on the basket and there were several pieces of black bread inside.

"Didn't I tell you to buy white bread and meat?"

"Here." Levi raised the basket in his hand.

"That's all? Today is Nalo's birthday." McCarroll looked a little displeased.

"Sister Nalo said that she wants to save more money for Brother Lex's tuition." Wei Na smiled on her face. The lack of nutrition on weekdays made the girl a little thin, and she didn't look so good when she smiled.

McCarroll's gaze became dull and dull for a short time, as if she saw herself more than ten years ago.

She pretended to be troubled, and then smiled at the two children, "Make up for him tonight, let's go."

McCarroll took the free little hands of the two children and asked softly:
"Can you hold it with one hand?"

"can!"

Only when life is a little better can I feel that these children are sensible and cute. I hope that these few years will pass quickly, preferably in the blink of an eye.

call out--

bang bang
As soon as the spiritual warning in my mind reacted, within 3 seconds, the sound of breaking through the air and the sound of explosions came one after another.

A house not far ahead turned into a fireball and erupted. After the dazzling light appeared, scorching air waves followed.

Several houses on the left and right sides were shrouded in flames, and the houses a little further away were torn apart by the air waves, and debris of wooden boards and unidentified households' clothes fell from the sky.

A piece of flaming wood clattered down beside McCarroll and bounced twice.

Ding Ding Deng!
Scared by the scene in front of him, McCarroll took a few steps back and sat down on the ground with the two children.

Levi rolled his eyes holding the bread basket and passed out.

McCarroll wanted to scream, but the spiritual warning was like a heavy hammer that forced her to gain a brief sanity. She got up and raised the two children and wanted to escape.

The psychiatrist of Sequence 7 is different from Sequence 8.

The body has become healthier. Although there are no obvious muscles, the strength and speed are much stronger than before Sequence 8, which is equivalent to the limit level of human beings.

Vision has been improved, and even items hidden in the dark can be seen clearly.

call out!
At the moment when the sound of breaking through the air came, McCarroll subconsciously threw the two children into the distance, and her body lost balance because of this movement. Before she landed, she looked up to the sky, and a huge black monster came to her. face.

Then, it was dark.

On the scorched earth ruins, Su Lin held a mutilated spirit in his hand, and read some of the memories left and projected from the island of spirit thinking.

"Only the spirit body of an extraordinary person can persist for so long." Deren Esso used the ability of the law mage to immediately prohibit the burning of flames and the passing of life.

All spirits will return to the spirit world where reality overlaps. This is the law of this world. This is true for the spirits of ordinary people and the spirits of extraordinary people. It is only a matter of time.

But that's normal.

That cannonball was dropped by the fleet under the command of the War Bishop of Sequence 3, and it itself contained extraordinary power. The spirits of ordinary people dissipated instantly, and the spirits of extraordinary people would also be shattered.

The light flickered for a while, and the spirituality acquired by the disabled spirit jumped a few times like a candle blown by the wind.

"Where is her home?" Su Lin's voice didn't fluctuate, "How are those children?"

"In the center of the explosion."

Deren Esso paused, and looked at the nearby residents who were lying on the ground. Among them were two children holding a basket, and one of them had an iron rod stuck in his abdomen:
"There is survival."

"The physical body is still there, and so is the spirit body." Su Lin glanced at the piles of spirits that were wandering and dissipating without will: "You are not lucky today, but you are lucky."

"Is Ms. Arianna there?"

A female figure in a simple linen robe, a bark belt, long black hair, and no shoes or stockings, walks out of nothingness.

It is the angel on the ground of the Church of Evernight, the servant of the secret, Arianna.

He made a polite greeting, and quietly looked at Su Lin who was getting more and more divine.

Deren Esso was terrified in his heart. He had heard a little about the angel of the Church of Evernight who walked on the ground all year round, and knew of its existence. At this moment, the other party respectfully respected the angel named 'Salier' beside him. Greetings? !
Could it be that this is a Sequence 1 angel? !

"Please temporarily turn this area into a hidden state."

Arianna didn't ask why, but nodded slightly. This area disappeared like being erased by an eraser, the damaged buildings, the scorched land, and the people that existed here.

The moment everyone appeared in the hidden space, more than a dozen spears of light pierced the bodies of those young, young, and old without breath.

A white beam of light descended from the sky like a waterfall. After a burst of blurred light, the wandering spirits disappeared, and a trace of blood appeared on those cold bodies.

Deren Esso's eyes widened. He had heard about the unimaginable high-sequence abilities of angels, but he didn't expect that such a miracle could be given at will? !
"The rest cannot be resurrected."

【That's good, thank you, boss】

【I can go to the great kingdom of the Evernight Goddess to reunite with my family.】

A message came from the spirit body.

Su Lin hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you not want to live?"

He hasn't spoken yet, although McCarroll's situation is indeed a bit troublesome.

According to this world, her spirit body includes astral body, mental body, ether body, and spiritual body, and most of these components have been dissolved and returned to the spirit world.

Collapse is doomed, and now it is only Su Lin who makes it falsely complete. It is estimated that the real fool will be able to fool this state.

【Are you the messenger of the gods? 】

"You can think so, or you can regard me as a god."

Deren Esso didn't look at Su Lin at the first moment, but at the expression of Arianna, the secret servant over there. What was he talking about?He says he is God?

[You must be a kind god
But why is this world still like this with a god like you around]

"God also has a lot of helplessness, but maybe you can look forward to a better future?"

【Those who put down their farm tools to chase the sun will end up with no crops and fall into a more embarrassing situation.

I have experienced it once]

"What you said is so abstract..."

[I have a deposit in Backlund Bank, please pass it on to them, it was originally reserved for my future travel]

[Although I don't know if I can run away from Mr. Deren's nose. Haha. 】

Su Lin glanced at the incomplete spirit body in his hand, then at the two sleeping children lying on the ground and the people in ragged clothes around him, and asked in silence for two seconds:

"Do you accept this ending?"

McCarroll's spirit body didn't answer, it just stopped moving as if it had fallen into silence.

[Fate is a writer, life is a script, I think I am qualified as an actor, at least I have experienced tragedy and suffering, lies and deceit, and finally ushered in the ending I should face. 】

"You didn't look like Wen Qing before, maybe you don't know what Wen Qing is." Su Lin sighed in his heart, let go of the spirit body in his hand and let it transform into a human form, and said:

"It's a common problem with you writers."

"I wanted to go back to my old job, but I can't write fantasies that have no logic in reality.
So I should not be a writer now. "McCarlo's voice was intermittent, her spirit dissipated slowly but firmly, she walked towards Wei Na and Levi, squatted down in front of them, and stroked her forehead.

"sorry"

She could no longer hold on, and turned into pieces of light, blending into the eternal night of the hidden space.

At the same time, the secret space is a mess like a graffiti oil painting, and various colors are distorted and superimposed to become a normal world.

Su Lin lifted the two sleeping children on the ground, and put them into the arms of Derren Esso who was tense and didn't know how to speak.

"I'll leave it to you first."

Su Lin looked to the southwest, and looked across an infinite distance to the Fusac Empire airship fleet that had flown dozens of miles away and was still speeding up. A Sequence 2 weather warlock did not directly participate in the battle but was ahead. Collision.

From a rational point of view, this war has nothing to do with him. There are too many tragedies in this era. He is not the savior of this world and it is impossible to prevent all tragedies from happening. McCarroll is just one of many tragedies A microcosm.

But he is not happy now.

'Should I thank Feysac's fleet for making me, the Jindan Stage Light God from another world, clearly understand whose home is here? '

'You make me unhappy and I have to talk to you about the bystander or the rationale? '

'I can do whatever I want! '

Of course, the premise is that it can't affect Lao Zhou, well, the role of Ms. Arianna is highlighted.

"Ms. Arianna." Su Lin smiled, pointed to the southwest direction and said:

"There is a War Bishop of Sequence 3 on the opposite side. How much can his Extraordinary characteristics be sold on the black market?"

"."

Arianna shook her head slowly and said:

"There are no extraordinary characteristics of saints on the black market."

Arianna seemed to have analyzed what this strange god might do next, and said without any lag:

"If you wish, our Evernight Church will definitely be able to set a price that satisfies you."

　Um late, sorry.

　　Then why do some people think that I am writing about the heroine? Readers who have read the mystery know that in the background of that world, there are all kinds of exploitation and ordinary people who have become victims of the times. Powerful, it incorporates the contradictions of modern Europe and the helplessness of the background of the times, and the tragedy is suppressed with humor. In fact, the books that impressed me the most about the mystery happened to be the fifth and sixth volumes.

　　That's why there are these chapters where Zhongli, Su Lin and Lu Mingfei's perspectives witness the reality of this world.
　　It can't be the heroine..
