The red moon returns

Chapter 37 Toward Immortality
  'Thru-hikers like unusual scenery, so I'd like to know what the second option is. ’

[Creatures listen to the memories in sacred memories and imitate divine power to alienate their own souls, but that is only a pseudo-power that mortals can understand. Real divine power cannot be understood by mortals. Even if you have extraordinary willpower and inspiration, you cannot transcend the gap between mortals and gods. boundaries, so I can only accompany you through this journey of awakening. 】

Lynch nodded, which was consistent with what he understood.

[However, the unexpected harvest opened up a new path for the journey. The stolen divine power returned, reactivating the memory of the red moon and turning it into a new sacred memory. What can be understood from it is no longer a fake imitation. Power, but fragments of true divine power. 】

‘Hiss…anyone can do it? ’

[No, mortal souls are not strong enough to withstand the supreme will. Once they try to understand, they will inevitably be completely assimilated by the information contained within. But if I go overboard, you can understand the true divine power as a mortal. 】

‘Is it that I can control divine power? ’

[Understanding divine power and controlling divine power are different. For the time being, you are only understanding divine power and imitating divine power, rather than controlling divine power. Moreover, the specific extent to which you can understand is still limited by the strength of your soul. You need to rely on your continuous promotion to deepen your understanding of power. But every power and subordinate ability you master in the future will be more powerful than other soul-shifters. 】

‘Wait, you just said temporarily? ’

[Yes, Lynch, divine authority comes from the gods, and is naturally contaminated with the supreme will of the gods, helping you to carry the authority of the gods with your mortal soul. When all the lost powers of the Red Moon are activated, these supreme wills will merge into one and help you ignite the divine fire. You will take over the divine power of the Red Moon, step into the realm of immortality, and become the thirteenth supreme being. 】

'Huh...' Lin Qi held his breath, suppressing his extremely throbbing heart, stepping into immortality and reaching the highest level. I am afraid that few people can refuse this temptation. But he still took a few deep breaths and asked as calmly as possible: 'Are the other twelve people actually resurrected in this way? ’

[No, they are completely different. You are an accident, an unexpected gain brought about by an idea beyond common sense, and others cannot copy it. 】

‘Then the most important question, what about you? I took over Hongyue's divine power, what should you do? Don't mess with me, this is important to me. ’

The gentle female voice was silent for a long time before she answered softly:

[You are still too immature to know too much now. You will have the opportunity to understand it slowly in the future. As for this problem, I have other ways out, don't worry about me, I won't lie about this kind of thing. 】

‘Okay, but I don’t believe in good luck. Whatever you want, you must pay an equal price. What price do I have to pay for such a good thing? ’

[Promotion will be extremely difficult. Not only do you need to find Hong Yue’s sacred memories, but you also need to constantly search for Hong Yue’s lost authority. Once you find the unlocked lost authority, you can unlock new divine authority and complete the next alienation. 】

‘Are you trying to tell me that from now on I will not only need to search for Hong Yue’s memories all over the world, but also actively seek trouble from evil gods all over the world? ’

Lynch's expression was a bit distorted. A flicker and a web spinner had already made him life-and-death. He tried his best to survive the crisis by using tricks. Now is it going to become normal? He can already foresee how exciting his future will be.

The female voice choked and became a little weird.

[There are also a few special mysteries that hide the lost divine power, so you don’t have to keep an eye on the evil god. Although this is indeed the easiest and most direct method, it is not the only one. I will slowly show it to you during the journey. 】

‘Besides that, are there any other costs? ’

[Due to the spontaneous attraction of divine authority, you will have a strong attraction to mystery in the future. You will often be surrounded by mysterious events, most of which will be quite dangerous for you. However, this is not good for finding lost authority. is a good thing. 】

‘Hiss… natural ridicule, is there anything else? ’

[No more, in other aspects of the alienated soul, there is no difference between you and ordinary soul alienators. It's up to you to decide how you want to choose. 】

Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief, as if he saw two roads diverging in front of him.

Ichijo has been arranged step by step to become a soul shifter, slowly collecting other sacred memories, and moving forward step by step until the day he finally falls. This road has been walked by countless predecessors, and it is relatively safe. There is always experience from the predecessors to learn from, which can give you the opportunity to live a new life in peace. On the other hand, you are in danger every day. Not only do you need to frequently fight against mysteries and evil gods, but you are the only traveler on this road. Everything is unknown and full of difficulties. The so-called witness to immortality is just a carrot on a stick, or a blank check. Before you get it, you will almost certainly have died on the road.

Give up the safe path that has been arranged and choose a dangerous path full of thorns? Only a fool would do this in a hot head.

However, Lynch wanted to say it, but I refused.

Although the first type is safe and secure, and Lynch is working hard for it, after traveling for three days and experiencing many stories, he always feels that he is being pushed forward by invisible waves, like a swaying boat, drifting with the current. I can't help myself, I don't know where I will be pushed by fate.

Five hours countdown, waiting to be dismembered by the Terror Claws, the time limit is last one month...

Lynch hated this situation of having no choice, but he never had the chance to choose.

But now the opportunity has come, and...

‘Neighbor, I have a question for you. ’

【Um? 】

‘I’m not asking the witness who only watched my choice, nor the hitchhiking companion who ignored me. I want to ask the neighbor who has been with me for who knows how many thousands of years, how she wants me to choose. "

After a long silence, the female voice suddenly said softly: [The first one. 】

‘I see, I understand. ’ Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, ‘Actually, the second one is more helpful to you, right. ’

The female voice was really silent this time.

‘For three days, you helped me borrow my own body to be reborn, constantly helped me understand the world in my mind, and even helped me start this new path. There is no help for no reason in the world. I think if you give me this, there must be something you need me to do. And the second road suddenly opens, which is obviously more helpful to you, but the first choice can lead a more comfortable and happy life. Maybe it would be better for me to spend my whole life, that's why you suggested the first one. So what do you need me to do, can you tell me? ’

[Continue your journey, Lynch. These things are also not suitable for you to know now. You will know it as you grow up. However, the initial one is not perfunctory or deceptive. I am just a witness. Everything is your own choice. This is also a very important point. 】

‘Haha, a choice? Neighbor, you should know that before I died, I was just an ordinary social otaku, mediocre and useless except for watching TV series and playing games. ’

【Um. 】

‘A mediocre birth, a mediocre job, a mediocre death, I have been mediocre all my life. Now that I have traveled through time and been reborn, I have a second chance. If I continue to choose to be mediocre, what’s the point of changing to a different world? ’

‘I refuse to be mediocre in this life. I want to fight vigorously. If I win, I will go to the top. If I lose, I am willing to admit defeat. ’

‘I chose the second path. Neighbors, traveling companions, witnesses, we will witness my immortal journey together. What should I do now? ’

[Call my name, Lynch. 】

Neighbor? Travel companion? witness?
  Lin Qi's heart moved and he understood, so he shouted out.

‘In the name of Luna. ’
