Thanks for the invitation. I am a parasite in Terra.

I don’t know why, but Zuo Jian always felt a chill when Laurentina called him.

Ah——this is also an illusion, just a sequelae.

"Well, let's start with us. What kind of information do you want to know?"

Zuo Jian, who took over the operation, closed his eyes and changed his pupils to the same color as Laurentina's.

At the same time, the hand under the table mimicked a pair of square-framed glasses, which he put on Laurentina's face.

My eyes seem to be naturally gentle, and it cannot be concealed no matter what they look like.

But in this kind of situation where verbal confrontation is required, a soft look is not a good thing.

He needed to wear glasses to hide the changes in his eyes.

In short, it doesn’t look that soft!

"Ugh?"

Elini was stunned

For some reason, when she saw Laurentina wearing a pair of glasses after entering the information exchange state, she suddenly felt that she was not so scary, but rather had a gentle feeling...

"We would like to know your intelligence on the Deep Sea Church and their presence in Saltwind City.

plan of. "

Dario didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Chapter 6, Doctor: Change the world? Me? When did you say that?

"This is roughly all I know about the Deep Sea Cult's plan."

Zuo Jian told Dario what he had learned during this period about the actions of the Deep Sea Church and his own inferences.

Of course, he erased this part of himself as a being.

"Assimilate with Kaiji... expand, and preach to the residents in the coastal areas who were severely affected by the Great Silence Disaster... No, it should be brainwashing."

"....Hehe....Is that so? In order to protect Iberia, they abandoned Saltwind City and similar areas as abandoned pawns, just like a lizard beast can escape by cutting off a limb."

"However, unexpectedly, this behavior has created an excellent environment for the Deep Sea Church to spread its message."

The chief inquisitor listened to everything calmly, and a hint of anger gradually grew in his eyes.

But the next moment, it was as if covered with a layer of gray, and he thought in a low voice:

"No... maybe, the Deep Sea Church has already infiltrated it. For the powerful, as long as the words like eternal life are put on the negotiation table, it must be a condition that cannot be refused."

"Teacher, what are you talking about? Could it be that our enemy is within ourselves..."

Elini listened to Dario's speculation with some shock, and even couldn't believe it for a moment.

But when she puts together all the intelligence she has learned so far, the information about the Deep Sea Church, and everything Dario brought her to this land of suffering to witness, the result is leading to an established fact...

Hai Si is not the biggest enemy.

The real enemy... is behind the swords they wield to protect.

"No, it's just a guess. Intelligence may be wrong, conclusions may be misleading, and facts may be distorted."

"But, Elini, everything I just said, you have to keep it in your heart when you go back."

"Why?! Teacher, shouldn't we——"

"If this 'conjecture' is true, how are you going to prove it and make others believe it?"

Zuo Jian spoke up to remind the somewhat agitated little bird.

"Why can't I make them believe it? I just need to give them the evidence—"

"Evidence? Dear little judge, how are you going to prove that the evidence in your hand is evidence?"

"As your teacher said, intelligence can be wrong, and guesses can be misleading—"

“And the truth can be distorted.”

At this moment, Zuo Jian was using Laurentina's body to support his head with his hands crossed. At the same time, the glasses on his face even covered his eyes behind because of the reflection.

"If you want to change the situation, you don't need evidence."

"So what do you think we need?"

Elini turned around and questioned the other party.

Dario on the side lowered his head, and after a moment, he spoke.

"Elini, you don't need to care about these things. You should be a good judge, not..."

"We haven't traveled all over the land, and the inferences I make are based on what I have personally seen."

"If you ask me."

Zuo Jian pushed up his glasses.

"I will tell you that Iberia is sick, and it is a very serious disease. Some cells or tissues are even completely necrotic."

"In modern medicine, there is often only one way to treat this type of completely dead tissue."

His implication was already obvious.

"Thank you for your reminder, Hunter, but I still want to continue observing it. I want to use my own glasses to judge whether it is terminally ill or not."

The Grand Inquisitor lowered his head and replied as if with a sigh.

"Okay, next, Hunter, what do you want to know?"

"Everything about the Great Silence, and the relationship between Iberia and Agor."

.........

.....

..

"Zajian, you really don't care?"

[It’s fake, but I can’t do anything. If the current situation in Iberia is really as I inferred, then the only ones who can save Iberia are the Iberians themselves.]

[Some things are much more difficult than just killing.]

[This is my third regret. I am just a simple art student.]

[.....I don't have any far-sighted vision or strategic thinking. I'm just an ordinary person...who has gained unspeakable power.]

[All I can do...is try to help the people I see.]

"But the captain told me that there are countless sufferings in this land,"

"There are endless people to be saved. Zuo Jian, what is the purpose of your actions and kindness? Why are you able to help them without reservation?"

Laurentina couldn't help but want to ask him.

"And... you actually understand better than me how sinister people can be, right? Just like every time you speculated about the Deep Sea Church or the people in Iberia's upper echelons just now."

"You always make the worst assumptions. In your eyes, it seems that it is not surprising for humans to do anything despicable."

"But why, you know clearly,

How bad can a person be, but why... are you still willing to be a..."

[Laurentina, you asked me what I did all this for? Right?]

Zuo Jian spoke, then motioned for Laurentina to turn around.

At some point, she found herself in front of a different house.

She walked forward and saw Anita clumsily cooking porridge inside.

At the same time, a strange old woman kept reminding her to be careful.

"Grandma Petra, this is food made by the nun. Let me tell you, the nun is amazing, but the painter is even more amazing!"

"Okay, okay, little Anita, speak slowly. Also, cook the porridge slowly to avoid getting burned."

Laurentina turned her head and saw another door opened.

She was stunned. In the house next door were the two men she saw when she first arrived in Yanfeng City.

Those two guys are the ones who could be tripped by the kiddie trap Anita made.

It seems to be called...

"Ironhide, what are you doing? Ah, she is?"

"She's hanging out outside. She's still hanging out outside at this hour?"

Ironhide looked at Laurentina with a serious look in his eyes.

"Why can't I hang out outside at this hour?"

Laurentina asked back. As expected, she couldn't be as kind to everyone as Zuo Jian.

"You, didn't go to get the nuns' food?"

"No wonder, everyone from outside is eating at this time."

"You deserve it if you don't go get it and starve."

"What, you..."

Laurentina frowned, feeling a little annoyed by the other party's harsh words.

However, Tiepi ignored her and went into the house after saying that.

[…What’s going on?]

"I'm just a little unhappy. It's okay. I won't bother with them..."

However, the next moment, Tiepi came out and came to Laurentina with a bowl of steaming cereal porridge.

"Here, next time, if the nuns are still distributing food, go get it. Otherwise, you will starve."

"Ironhide...but I still want to drink..."

"You've eaten it, but she hasn't."

"Yes, then she should be even hungrier..."

"This morning, I saw some grass growing in the field outside. We can go pull the weeds and cook them together later."

"Hey, what do you mean—"

Laurentina looked at the bowl in her hand, then looked at Tiepi's back.

"You haven't eaten, but we have, so here it is for you."

Ironhide said, walking into the room.

[Let’s go, Laurentina.]

[There are always bad people, and even worse evil people, but that doesn’t mean that innocent people and those with good intentions deserve to be implicated.]

[I will always assume the worst of everyone, and then give kindness to those who deserve to be treated that way.]

[As for the evil ones among them...I will make them regret being born.]

[I think this is the meaning of my coming. After I help you find your companions and you are able to stand on your own, maybe I can find a way to act alone and keep doing everything.]

[Unfortunately, I am a fool, so I can only help people one step at a time and in the most idiotic way possible.]

Zuo Jian sighed while looking at the dilapidated street.

Today, it doesn’t seem so desolate.

"The left room..."

"But I won't let you go."

[Ahem, what did you say?]

"...I don't hate your idea, but I don't agree with your plan to travel around without me!"

"You are never, ever, ever allowed to leave me!"

[No, Laurentina, you are too——]

"Didn't you say you would assume the worst of others? Well, I am such a bad person."
