perfect savior

Chapter 24 Our Will Is With The Ring
Su Ranqing never knew that being a nanny was such a joy.

Cooking, tidying up, washing clothes, pasting beautiful paper-cut flowers on the window lattice, on this island, a girl born with a golden spoon in her mouth is busy doing trivial and boring things.

However, she was happy with it.

Because the man she devoted herself to serving was not only the leader of the extraordinary organization with great power, but also the benefactor who saved her twice.

On this day, Su Ranqing leaned the yacht on the pier, and, as usual, carried the ingredients and hummed, bouncing and walking towards the depths of the island.

Today's food is bluefin tuna sashimi. The little girl deliberately chose the "big belly" position. This part has the most beautiful oil distribution, bursting with juice in the mouth, and lingering aftertaste.

"I hope the gods can like it..."

However, when Su Ranqing came to the small villa, he found that Lu Yuan did not stay in the house as usual, but sat in a wheelchair and came to the quaint courtyard.

"... sir? Are you going to see the sea?"

It seemed that Su Ranqing's voice woke up the man's meditation. Lu Yuan raised his head and waved to her:

"Miss Su, put the food in the kitchen first, and come out after tidying up...Today is a big day for you."

Su Ranqing's hands trembled violently, and she couldn't help but burst into ecstasy.

"All right!"

She entered the house in two or three steps, stuffed the tuna into the refrigerator, pressed her hands to her chest, and took a few deep breaths.

No, my heart is still beating so fast and my legs are shaking!
She couldn't calm down no matter what, she simply poured cold water down her throat, walked out of the room, and stood in front of Lu Yuan like a primary school student in training.

The man in the wheelchair didn't look at her, but just looked at the distant sea, wondering what he was thinking.

This silence lasted for 10 minutes. Suddenly, Lu Yuan spoke in a calm voice, but Su Ranqing felt that there was a complicated meaning in it that she couldn't understand.

"A long time ago, when human beings built their own civilization, the [Temple] existed."

"At that time, the sun was smaller than it is now, there was no land in the world, and human beings had a third eye."

"Humans can run when they are born, and the claws of a lion can't cut through the baby's skin... It was the best era, and humans should stand at the top."

"The strongest among them founded the [Temple], and its eternal purpose is to protect human beings and protect life!"

Su Ranqing only felt a current blast from his spine and coccyx, all the way to his brain, turning into a big bronze bell and beating randomly in his brain.

What the gods are describing..."Humans" before the era of Homo sapiens?
Before us... and the epoch?
Lu Yuan was still narrating calmly:

"At that time, many people thought that the establishment of the temple was superfluous. After all, human beings are born strong and can conquer even the sea and the sky. How can they need protection?"

"Ha, I didn't know where I read a sentence a few days ago: Weakness is not an obstacle to survival, arrogance is."

"That's a good sentence."

"On a certain day in that era, everything changed. The sea dried up in an instant, and the cities built on the trenches were exposed to the scorching sun; the intelligence of animals improved rapidly, and they established their own demon civilization as if with the help of gods; basically Particles will collapse at any time, huge sea beasts will instantly turn into dust... everything in this world is falling towards the abyss."

"In the tragic age when everything is going to be extinct, the temple stands up."

"The temple leads the people to form the last resistance force and charge towards the source of this destruction."

"The bloody battle is happening every second. The comrades in arms are still joking one moment, and the next second will be separated forever."

"In the end, the temple and humans won, but the world was also broken."

"Later on, new humans built a kingdom from the ruins, and they worshiped the temple as their god."

"But ah... the fate of the world is ouroboros."

"Destruction and rise, over and over again, without interruption."

"New human beings build new civilizations. Few survived in the last era. People don't know that under their own cities, the bones of civilizations from many years ago are buried."

"Only the temple has been severely damaged in the battles of each era, and has absorbed a large amount of new blood in each era."

"Those of us preserve the memory of the destruction of the world, inherit the power of the extraordinary, and while cultivating the next generation of extraordinary, we are always ready to face the war that will destroy the world."

"Only we know this sad fate, so we must shoulder the responsibility."

"Because the pictures fade, the words are lost, the meaning of the symbols is distorted, but not the will."

"The will flows in this world, endlessly."

Lu Yuan stretched out the hand that had been hanging by his side, and spread his five fingers.

A small silver ring lay on his palm.

"Su Ranqing, accept the ring, sign a sacred contract, and become a member of the temple. You will bear a tragic secret and be ready to face the fate of bloody battles to the death. You will become the gravekeeper of the old era and the founder of the new era. "

"You, would you like to?"

Su Ranqing was already crying.

She once fantasized that one day she would achieve extraordinary things, and she must soar through the sky with a thunderbolt in hand, chic and unrestrained, happy and free.

But until now, she didn't feel that she was too superficial and utilitarian.

Wearing the ring, bearing the secret and the fate of the world, this is a unique and legendary life, and it is also a heavy and huge mission!
The little girl took a deep breath and stretched out her right hand:
"Sir, I do!"

"For the predecessors who died fighting in the temple, for the innocent lives of the old age, and for the happy and happy human beings today, I am willing!"

The corners of Lu Yuan's mouth curled up slightly, he took the girl's hand lightly, and put the ring on her index finger.

In an instant, Su Ranqing felt that he was drowning.

This is not a psychological effect, but the moment she puts on the ring, she seems to "disappear" suddenly, and she is in the endless ocean, with sea water all around.

"Calm down, in the process of wearing the ring, you are no longer an ordinary person, you will be in the ocean of spiritual power, don't be afraid of her, it is the source of the extraordinary."

Lu Yuan took the girl's hand and motioned her to look forward:

"What do you see?"

"A... tower built on the bottom of the sea, with a lot of patterns and characters on it that I can't understand... It's too high, I can't see the end,"

"Even in the temple, few people can clearly see how high the [Holy Pillar] is." Lu Yuan smiled and let go of his hand:
"Go, engrave your own ring on the sacred pillar."

Su Ranqing floated over in a daze, stretched out her right hand, and stuck the ring on the outer wall of the giant pillar.

Suddenly, she knew that she had a connection with the giant pillar in front of her. Wearing the ring, she could vaguely sense the real existence of this great creation.

In the girl's ear, Lu Yuan whispered in relief:

"According to the usual practice, newcomers who join the temple during this period will sign a sacred contract with [Holy Pillar Four Elephants]."

"In the temple, the wearing of the ring does not depend on which finger."

"But remember, taking off the ring is equivalent to giving up the oath."

"It's worth mentioning that the rings of each level will be different... For example, you should be able to see my ring now."

Lu Yuan stretched out his left hand.

Su Ranqing was surprised to find that on the index finger of the man's left hand, there was a gold, silver and black ring.

Lu Yuan pressed the ring-wearing hand on his chest lightly, with a low but pleasant voice:
"Newcomers, may our will be with the ring."

With her heart pounding, Su Ranqing tried to suppress her excitement, and did the same thing:
"May our will be with the ring."
