How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 229 Aesthetics Seminar

Having lost the opportunity to "turn this conflict into an artistic aesthetic test against the Midnight Lords", Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed regretfully, and then silently turned his gaze to the Imperial Army on the side.

The Custodes are a wonderful species. According to the Emperor, they have a bit more emotional intelligence in design than the average Astartes - the bad news is, they do know how to read atmosphere, but not much, and generally don't like to use themselves EQ; the good news is that the situation in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka is not an "ordinary situation".

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't want to know how many people in this imperial army team were using her as an emperor's meal replacement. But in short, after she gave her a look of disapproval, the two imperial guards present naturally started to pack their things and prepare to leave.

During the short period of time when the Jin Cancans actually left, Fujimaru Ritsuka took advantage of every opportunity to order a hamburger steak set meal for himself. After Judge Hastings was interrupted by Sevatar, although his momentum plummeted, he still tried to struggle in vain:

"I still don't think this is a good thing in the long run." He said, deliberately using a complicated and awkward grammar to emphasize his official authority. "Anything that may lead to corruption and depravity -"

"The pursuit of beauty is human nature, Mr. Judge, it is innocent in itself." Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed and retorted, "Even if I am the judge, I do not recommend it - no, just because I am the judge, I will not It is recommended that the person involved adopts the boring lifestyle of an ascetic monk. Appropriate relaxation and entertainment are necessary."

Judge Hastings weighed it up and finally chose to respond to this topic that had been misled by Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"...Maybe so, but is human nature really 'sinless'?" He sat back on the chair and started to face the remaining half of the cold meal in front of him again, "I don't We deny that human beings are born with the desire to pursue beauty, but you cannot be unaware that in this chaotic universe, the one who tightly grasps 'beauty' and 'desire' in the palm of your hand is an enemy of chaos."

"You also know that the facts are not as absolute as you claim." Fujimaru Ritsuka said, "The Lord of Joy does have relevant powers in this universe, but the power of God is one thing, and the relevant concepts are another Another thing. The concept of 'beauty' was not born by the evil god of subspace, but was determined by 'human beings (observers)'. It has nothing to do with the gods who 'control' beauty, humans themselves will naturally feel it beautiful."

Great, the topic has turned into a heretical theological debate that is both incomprehensible and head-scratching. Savita immediately decided to hold on to the situation, but it was still too late to prepare to escape now:

"Perhaps so, but even the Lord of Mankind believes that the sensitivity to beauty is not necessary." Hastings immediately nodded with his fork at Sevatar who had not yet successfully left, "There is a living example in our In front of us - if He really thought this was important, why did He deliberately strip off this part of the function when creating the Astartes through bio-alchemy?"

Sevatar, who had only turned halfway, turned back and grinned threateningly at the inquisitor: "This is somewhat biased. Why don't you use my dear and respectable Blood Angel cousins ​​as an example?"

Hastings looked up again in the direction of Sevatar with a gloomy expression. Seeing that the second round of quarrel was about to start, Fujimaru Ritsuka's voice intervened just right: "Even if the Emperor really thought about stripping this function from the Astartes, there are as many examples as the sand in the Ganges to prove it. He didn't succeed. Severtarion simply has no appreciation, and this is his own problem."

"Hey--"

The First Captain of the Midnight Lords immediately made a protest sound, but Fujimaru Ritsuka ignored him and just took the tablet computer that he had never put down in his hand again. He called up a page from it with a very simple operation and showed it to Everyone present:

"——Combined with many past experiences, I guess that as long as he sees something 'beautiful' enough, his meager appreciation ability can be activated."

Savita was dissatisfied with this statement, but he did not have time to express his dissatisfaction. In order to protest, he naturally turned his head in the direction of Fujimaru Ritsuka, and his eyes naturally hit the screen of the tablet computer that the latter turned over to him in time, and then——

- He was confused.

There was no doubt that what was displayed on the screen was an image record that was a complete stranger to Savita. Although it was just a dull, still picture, it did not prevent him from using the bone structure and body structure information conveyed by the picture in an instant to roughly conclude that "that is a mortal male." conclusion. This was nothing to be surprised about - but for some reason he couldn't move his eyes away.

Although not comparable at all, it reminded him of the feeling that came over him when he first met his genetic father. At the third second, he realized that he might have lost his composure, but at this moment, it didn't seem to be very important. He didn't hate this feeling, and he didn't have any thoughts of interrupting it for a trivial matter - it wasn't until the fifth second when he was frozen in place like this that Fujimaru Ritsuka turned off the display of the tablet screen, and he suddenly woke up with a start.

What evil method? Savita thought with lingering fear at this moment.

Out of confidence in the "absolute safety of the surrounding environment", the First Company Commander of the Night Lords, who finally regained his normal thinking ability, first assumed a conversational defensive posture. In an instant, he was ready to immediately scold anyone who dared to laugh at his reaction, but the next second, he discovered that no one was prepared to try to do so. The instigator of all this, Fujimaru Ritsuka, certainly knew what might happen, and she certainly did not need to do this; and Judge Hastings and Kaelia were also present, or were the only two people left in the cafeteria. , obviously haven't recovered from the "beautiful" impact a few seconds ago.

"Gao Changgong." After another two seconds, Fujimaru Ritsuka uttered these three clear but unfamiliar syllables, "Also known as the 'King of Lanling'. A general renowned for his beauty and bravery, Because his appearance is too beautiful, this person must wear a mask every day in order to live normally in the crowd without causing commotion. Although there have been records of 'beautiful men', 'beautiful women', and even There is more than one 'god of beauty', but when it comes to 'beautiful people', he is the first one that comes to my mind. By the way, the ID photo on the portrait of Lingji is not half as lethal as him himself. "

Inquisitor Hastings opened his mouth, but it took two seconds before he managed to make a sound through his vocal cords. This indeed made him look very stupid, but at least this time, Sevita, who was deeply concerned, did not launch a rhetorical attack on this point.

"...This is really too..." Kaelia had no doubt that the word the judge was about to say was "blasphemy", but he finally swallowed half of his unspoken accusation, "...such Is there really no big enemy hindering your perfect appearance?"

"I believe that the hand of the Lord of Joy has not stretched out that long. Not all concepts related to 'beauty' in the world will have the shadow of that one." Fujimaru Ritsuka said calmly, "Not to mention Ran. Regarding the matter about King Ling, you have also seen Mr. Robert in person many times, haven’t you?”

Hastings began to hesitate again, and this time he really failed to say anything.

This has nothing to do with the identity and position of the Emperor's son, the Imperial Regent, or issues such as "political correctness". Anyone who has seen the Imperial Regent cannot deny that Robert Guilliman is indeed " beautiful. It is an indescribable and shocking beauty that cannot be [-]% replicated by any sculpture, painting, or even video record. Anyone who has met the original body cannot fail to be awed by it.

Hastings opened his mouth to say that he hoped that the other party could change the expression to a more suitable expression for the original body, such as "majestic", "heroic", or "brilliant", "heroic" and so on—— But then, like a desperate illiterate, he realized that all the words he could think of in an instant would eventually be converged into the concept of "beauty" in terms of inclusiveness and generality.

But Savita turned her head again with a little resentment: "I don't think-"

"—Conrad Coates."

Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had expected this, only lightly mentioned the name of his genetic father, and successfully blocked all of Sevatar's unspoken critical comments, "In the final analysis, all primarchs are 'beautiful' It's just because of inevitable individual differences that the degree to which they can embody "beauty" differs. From the perspective of "embodiing and imparting beauty", there is no point in treating the emperor as a kind of beauty god. No."

All Primarchs possess a spiritual, or in Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes, magical beauty. Different from the mainstream belief in the early years of the Empire that "the Emperor designed the Primarch so perfectly so that they could better control the Legion", after studying in detail and personally reconstructing the physical body of a Primarch, , she prefers to think that this is a benign "side effect" that does not require special treatment:

It seems to be common knowledge among magicians that "introducing the movement of celestial bodies into the human body can make it acquire mysterious beauty." However, as a third-rate magician, Fujimaru Ritsuka is only in the modern magic of El-Melloi II. Under literacy education, there is only a superficial understanding of this level. She didn't know much about the principles. The only thing she was sure of was that when the Emperor made the originals, he added something to the "essence" of each of them that could reflect the movement of the celestial bodies.

"But," Kaelia, who was holding a juice cup as her mood gradually stabilized, asked slowly, "among the subspace gods, the first one to occupy the power of 'beauty' was the Lord of Joy, right? Such power is Can... I don't know how to put it properly, 'shared'?"

"In this regard...it is better to say that there is a unique God of Beauty, which is a big problem." Fujimaru Ritsuka thought for a moment and replied, "Not to mention the competition between gods for power, which is too far away from us. , simply put, if there is a God who wants to monopolize the concept of 'beauty', then He must first make himself a 'perfect' existence. As we all know, 'perfection' is something that can be pursued but can never be pursued. the concept of."

She also said similar words to Fulgrim in the fantasy world, but unfortunately judging from the final result, the other party obviously didn't listen - or maybe because the things in the fantasy world must be based on the framework of what has happened in reality as a template. , it was no use even if he listened.

She had wanted to ask which was the correct answer, but that was pointless. Fujimaru Ritsuka had many opportunities to confirm this issue with the emperor, but she finally gave up.

There was no special reason, she just didn't want to hear the result that she didn't like very much, that's all.

　　Regent, an ordinary handsome guy in the hearts of Ultramarians (the ordinary surgeon). Don't remind me what GW made the primarch's head sculpt look like. Anyway, if you just look at the text, the primarchs are all handsome!

　　Guda's moon-style discussion of beauty mainly comes from the case of Shuangmaita Izeluma in the II Chronicles. Thank you, Makoto Mita. The organic combination of the moon-style discussion and the hammer was made up by me (An Jing).
