I really only stop

As expected of the Supreme Pope today, Berendo found something wrong in Lu Xi's narration after a short pause:

"If it is true as you said, the experimental tower is a creation of the floating kingdom, then where did the [Holy Light Affinity] rewards come from after the subjects passed the Holy Light Trial?"

"About this point, I actually haven't figured it out."

Lu Xi shook his head honestly:

"However, Themis possesses the [immortality] technology that transforms humans into holy light life forms, and I even met that one—hiccup."

When Lu Xi was about to say the name of the first saint, Hiyera, a warm feeling of fullness suddenly surged from his stomach, causing him to burp a lot.

Strange, I haven't eaten for nearly a day in Themis, why am I still hiccupping?

Frowning in doubt, Lu Xi continued:

"It's the one at the cathedral door — Hiccup."

Another huge burp, this time, Lucy finally noticed something was wrong.

It's not a false feeling of fullness caused by excessive hunger. After not eating anything for a day, I'm actually [full]!

There is a warm feeling all around the body, and every inch of muscle is full of strength.

Could it be that this is the influence of the holy light group that got into my body before?Did it keep me from saying Hiyera's name?

Instantly figured out the crux of the matter, when he tried to say the word 'Hierra' for the last time, before Lu Xi could make a sound, a full belch came out of his stomach.

It seems that this is indeed the case. Combined with Themis' last sentence [please take care of Themis's commander], the identity of the Holy Light Corps has been clearly revealed.

Although it is possible to pass the information to the Pope by means of time-stop + note, since the Holy Light Group does not want me to speak out, let's put this matter on hold for now.

After all, the one who is now in my body is the same as the Iron Fan Princess who was drilled into the stomach by Sun Monkey. If she wants to do something, I might not be able to stand it.

On the other hand, under the Pope's crown, he did not have any doubts about Lu Xi's continuous hiccups. On the contrary, he looked into Lu Xi's eyes seriously:

"The technology to transform people into holy light life forms? Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"Well, I've seen transformed people."

Recalling the scene at that time, Lu Xi nodded:

"After tens of thousands of years and some other factors, they have entered a state of being unable to communicate. It is precisely because of this that I rejected Themis' proposal to transform me and Cocoa into holy light life forms , and desperately tried to escape."

"You did the right thing."

Looking at Lu Xi approvingly, His Holiness the Pope expressed his approval for the first time in person:

"Eternal life does not mean just an endless lifespan. When we obtain eternal life, will our thinking mode change? Are we still us? These are the questions that countless sages are thinking about."

"For example, everyone knows that the elves are long-lived species. In that long lifespan, a month may be as short as a day to them, so they will do some things that we can't understand ——Such as spending dozens or hundreds of years to carve a sculpture, or spending a long time learning a new language that is never used at all.”

"In the same way, when life span is extended, people's perception of time will continue to speed up. In the end, when you feel like you got married just happened yesterday, maybe your great-grandchildren are already full of children and grandchildren ——From a human point of view, this is very scary.”

"So, I'm glad to see that you can still maintain your own reason and thinking, and make the right choice in the face of such a good thing as [immortality], which ordinary people dream of."

Patting Lu Xi on the shoulder, the Pope nodded:

"I have to say, it's amazing."

"You won the prize."

Feeling the heartfelt admiration from the old man in front of him, Lu Xi felt a little relieved.

At this point, all the temptations of me by His Majesty the Pope should be over.

From the perspective of Berendo, he is just a wild adventurer who came out of nowhere. Under such circumstances, it is obviously unrealistic for him to give his beloved Yuxia directly to him.

Although the grandpas in Sanctuary really don't know how to take care of children, their concern for these children who grew up in Sanctuary is also from the bottom of their hearts.

Judging from the current performance of the Pope, he is obviously satisfied with me. In this way, he should not pursue the matter of me abducting Yuxia——

"--but."

Suddenly subtly accentuating his tone, the pope's expression turned cloudy in an instant. He took a sip of the hot tea that Lucy had just handed over, and asked as if inadvertently:

"Forget about that child Yuxia, just now I heard Cocoa calling herself your 'Guardian Knight'? What's going on here?"

"Goo-"

Under the gaze of the Pope's meaningful eyes, Lu Xi swallowed hard.

PS: Do you want to be dangerous (doubt)

Chapter 492 Holy Muziguo

"So, that's how it is."

After listening to Lu Xi's narration, even the Pope couldn't hold back the expression on his face, and reached out to support his forehead:

"Under such circumstances, it is not easy for you to come up with such a method. It's just that Yuxia first, then Cocoa, Lu Xi, tell me, is there really something wrong with Sanctuary's education method? "

"[There's nothing wrong with it] — that's the biggest bug."

These words have been kept in my heart for a long time, and it was rare for His Majesty the Pope to take the initiative to ask, Lu Xi immediately opened the conversation box:

"The people who live in the sanctuary are either high-ranking priests or great sages. There is no problem with their words and deeds, and they are even perfect to the level of [breaking]. This shouldn't be a problem, but, yes The children who live in it are not like that."

"The reason why the sages are perfect is because they have learned, accepted and recognized their own [imperfection] from their growth, and the perfection they have comprehended from this is pure white after filtering, and naturally it will not be seen by anyone again." Things shake."

"However, if a person grows up in the pure white environment of the sanctuary, she will subconsciously think that [perfection] is the normal state of the world. Unless she lives in the sanctuary her whole life, otherwise, as long as this As soon as a person comes out into the world, he is extremely susceptible to imperfection, even to extremes."

"—Indeed, it's a problem."

Sighing leisurely, Berendo walked to the window, looking down at the neat and orderly sanctuary outside the window:

"Some things still need to be understood by oneself in the end. If you can only get in touch with one side for a long time, it is very easy to have a biased understanding of the world."

"..."

Knowing that the Pope, who is known as the morning star of the Holy Light, can understand everything without his own explanation, Lu Xi waited silently, leaving room for the old man to think.

"But, Lucy, you have to remember."

After silently staring out of the window for a while, Berendo suddenly turned his head and looked at Lu Xi with burning eyes:

"Whether it's Yushia or Cocoa, they are all part of the sanctuary. Even if it is possible that the situation you said 'they are polluted by the imperfection of the outside world', when necessary, the sanctuary will [Purify] that imperfection for them with your own hands—you have to believe that Sanctuary definitely has the strength and patience to repeat this process until they learn to protect themselves.”

"..."

"Relax, this is not a warning."

After a little silence, I don't know what to think of, Berendo shook his head slightly, and his tone became gentle again:

"You can take it as the ramblings of a lonely old man who cares about his granddaughters. When you get old, you can't help but think too much. I hope you can understand."

"Ah."

Understanding what the Pope meant, Lu Xi nodded firmly:

"I remember."

"……That's good."

He stared fixedly at Lu Xi's eyes for a few seconds, and after confirming something reassuring, the Pope suddenly stretched his waist in a very inconspicuous manner. The atmosphere has disappeared:

"It's really a big loss this time. Not only did you get rid of the Holy Light Trial, but you still caused such a big commotion so close to the sanctuary—that sky city has been parked nearby for long enough Is it right? Why, do you still want to stay in the sanctuary?"

"How dare you dare."

With a standard salute, Lu Xi quickly ran out of the Pope's office:

"I'm going to ask Nova to drive Sky City away, please don't worry!"

"..."

Watching Lu Xi hurriedly running away, Berendo smiled and shook his head:

"This kid."

--------------

"Come on, Ruoweixi, try this~"

"what--"

Lu Xi subconsciously chewed something stuffed in his mouth by Zerika, and a strange fragrance and warmth spread to his stomach along the gap between his teeth:

"It tastes good, what is it?"

"Hum hum hum~"

Smiling twice super proudly, Celica puffed up her chest:

"During the day when Ruoweixi went to the holy light trial to fight monsters, I, who has a peerless talent, learned a cooking method called "drying the sun" for a long time! If I didn't come to the sanctuary, I wouldn't know what to do except [barbecue] Besides, cooking can be so simple!"

drying?Is this considered cooking?

Continuing to chew the sweet food that Celica stuffed into his mouth, Lu Xi felt from the taste that it was indeed the taste of some small fruit after being dried.

No moisture, and, sweeter than fresh.

Although he refused to admit that this method of picking fruit from the tree and then drying it was [cooking], but it was rare to see Celica so happy, Lu Xi reluctantly encouraged her:

"It's not bad, it's just a so-so level—huh?"

What made Lu Xi's layer-like compliment stop halfway through was nothing but a light screen that popped up suddenly from the system:

[Ding~ You have eaten the Holy Muzi Fruit, and you will be able to resist abnormal states for three hours. 】

"Holy Muziguo?"

With a strange expression, he read the words on the light screen. Lu Xi grabbed a certain Zerika who wanted to sneak away, and rubbed her face with both hands:

"You secretly picked the fruit marked [No Picking] again?"

In similar matters, Celica has many previous convictions.

Due to the need to get famous, Lu Xi often takes on some public welfare tasks in remote areas.This kind of place is generally rich in agricultural products, and a certain childish Lika often eats wherever she goes.

According to Lu Xi's understanding of her, Zelika's way of thinking should be like this:

Ah, I saw some delicious fruits on the tree → (pull) → ah blah blah blah.

However, she must have never considered that, unlike in the wild, these neatly planted fruit trees with beautiful branches and leaves often have owners.

Although most of the residents who had the fruit stolen under the offensive of Zelika's signature [Cute Lika Fake Cry] would kindly say "don't care" and take the initiative to give this cute child a basket of fruit, but every time Lu Xi would preach to her once.

How embarrassing!Every time I accompanied Zarika to the door to apologize, the way she looked at me was really embarrassing!

She had been told not to pick other people's fruits indiscriminately and eat them, but now, she actually came to the sanctuary to pick up fruit trees!

You know, the great sages living here are not as easy-talking as the townspeople outside. If it is pursued, a certain Celica might be imprisoned——

"it does not matter."

Nana's voice sounded from the side, and Lu Xi looked back, and found that the soft girl was also holding a basket of holy fruits that looked extraordinary:

"In the beginning, Celica was indeed caught, but before I could explain to her, the great sage who caught us immediately said, 'Take it! You can take it!', and even took the initiative to use holy He helped us pick and process the sacred fruit, and then added, "Come pick it when you want to eat it"——from this point of view, the grandpas in the sanctuary are really gentle and kind people, as the outside world says !"

No, that's just the natural behavior of a large group of lonely old men when they suddenly see cute children.

Having gained a new understanding of how lonely and elderly the sages in the sanctuary are, Lu Xi couldn't help but focus on the face of Celica who was holding her in his hand.

Thinking about it this way, could this Celica be a more popular existence than Yuxia in the Sanctuary?

After all, compared to the polite and gentle lady saint, a childish character like Zerika who is a bit lively and noisy will be more loved by the elderly.

"—But, did Ruoweixi win the Holy Light Trial?"

Rescuing her own face from Lu Xi's clutches, Celica nimbly jumped back a few steps, looking at him curiously:

"Unexpectedly, I went there for a whole day. Could it be that Ruoyouxi encountered some unexpected difficulties inside?"

It's okay to be jumped in the face by Zelika?

"Huh? With me in charge, the Trial of Holy Light is just a matter of hand!"

Rubbing Celica's hair vigorously, Lu Xi didn't mention the words 'I almost won't see you' at all, which might worry the girls:

"I went there for a day just because it was so fun to stay inside. If I bring all the food and water, I can even pass the Holy Light Trial with my eyes closed!"

This is not a lie, the Trial of Holy Light is only a part of Themis Experimental Tower, with Luxi's authority, as long as he closes his eyes and stands inside, the center will automatically give him rewards-this is the same as he secretly It's a reason why my name was added to the [Hall of Honor for Osiris Mortal Difficulty Clearance].

Still the same sentence, you have the right not to use the bastard.
