Chapter 279 No, I Refuse

Griffith saw the history of the elves, and he even stood beside the elves who pursued psionic powers, touching the endless void with their consciousness.

There is no limit to the far and wide place, and there is only darkness around you, and there seems to be amazing things surging in the darkness.

He couldn't see clearly, but the elves rushed towards it in a frenzy.In this scene, he saw countless figures become crazy and powerful, and then continued to explore deeper.

Griffith's limbs were cold.He remembered the experience of drowning when he was a child, struggling in the sea water of Neopolis, the surroundings were extremely quiet, there was nothing to cling to, and what was even more frightening was that some shadows were approaching at the bottom of the water where the light could not reach.This fear and despair is unbearable, but the images and knowledge in the water are still pouring in, almost filling his brain.

"Help, help!" Griffith grabbed his mithril pendant and began to call for help.

At this moment, a slender finger touched his forehead, and flicked it lightly.

He immediately broke free from the pain of drowning, and the sense of powerlessness of being overwhelmed by the sea water disappeared.

Ms. Aviana looked at him with a smile:
"I know what you saw. The same picture also appeared in my mind. The temptation of psychic power is irresistible for Extraordinary people."

"Then, what are those things?" Griffith prostrated himself on the ground, gasping for breath, and asked, "The existence of these virtual realms is terrifying and unimaginable. Why do you need to contact, understand, and use their power?"

He wanted to stand up, but his legs were as soft as cotton, and he couldn't stand upright at all.

"Didn't you also join Mr. Hermit's party? Don't you think that's dangerous too?" Ms. Aviana helped him up and stood gracefully in front of him, "Griffith, have you ever thought that elves and humans are for What do you live for?"

Sure enough, Sidious and Ms. Aviana had shared information before, and what they were planning was...

Seeing the inexplicably panicked and confused quasi-knight, the peerless beauty turned around gracefully, and sat down on a chaise longue decorated with vines and green leaves among the flowers:

"I want to overcome fear and anxiety in my life and make myself feel at ease.

"Harvesting a prominent reputation and gaining great power are all to make oneself feel at ease, and so are love and friendship,

"Whether it's for others, or for love and peace, it's all just to make myself feel at ease.

"It can be said that living is not just for peace of mind?

"Since that's the case, why do you feel uneasy about pursuing great power?
"If you don't have this power, it's like the battle between you and Vieri, where life and death are on the line. Or take you and Galadia as an example, you have the heart to let her die in the cold and memories after decades Do you stay alone in the empty boudoir?"

Griffith was speechless, all kinds of associations made him gasp nervously.

The noble elf demigod continued:
"Join the party of Mr. Hermit, and after receiving the aid of Sidious, even the supernatural will be defeated by you. If you pay some more price, maybe, maybe your Lord of the Rings can make you and Galadia look good together keep it~
"You see, the pursuit of power is a reassuring thing,
"I don't know when the price of power will appear. When that time comes, maybe there will be some way to avoid it~
"Like you before, with the consciousness of going to death, protecting her from the encirclement when her life is hanging by a thread, doesn't it make you more uneasy?"

Seems like it makes sense...

"So, Griffith, if such a power is in front of you, you can get inexhaustible spiritual energy just by reaching out your hand, and you can cross the barriers of strength, status and race, don't you want to try it? ?”

While talking, Ms. Aviana raised her hand and drew a circle.The ring is like a black mirror surface, surging with deep darkness.

However, in this darkness, there is a powerful force at your fingertips.The guardian of the power is nowhere to be seen, if only a part of the power is taken away, maybe it is really possible not to be discovered.

Griffith wriggled his throat and watched longingly.This is a powerful psychic energy that he has never experienced before, and with the help of Ms. Aviana, it is within reach.

As long as there is this power, the rank of the knight who breaks through the war can only be flipped, and it is easy to obtain endless knowledge and lifespan.

As for the price, it may be the risk of being swallowed like those unlucky ones.However, you can get this power first, and then figure out a way... Combined with the information we know so far, many terrible dangers are threatening this world, and even Earl Lamor feels fear and despair.

This idea is tempting him, outlining wonderful illusions and expectations.Griffith clenched his mithril pendant tightly, but those warm and soft memories made him more eager for power.

All thoughts are encouraging him to accept.

Griffith trembled violently, and bloody aura gushed out from his limbs, mobilizing as if he had encountered a fatal threat.

A tiny call amplified, clear, in unintelligible words.The ancient stone tablet found under the ruins of Belomon emerged in Griffith's mind.Immediately afterwards, the vague words became more and more clear, reminding him with a firm voice:
"Don't respond!
The confused eyes became hot and sincere.Griffith recalled some fragmentary information obtained during this period, which was not enough to grasp the whole picture of the truth, but it was enough for him to recognize the face of the enemy and support him to stand up.

He recognized the degree of danger in the void, and even recalled the crazy words that King Aurelius had said not long ago.

"The catastrophe will come, I see the future... Those robbers and liars are the looters and the sad survivors, the stronger they are, the faster the hunters will come.

"There is no peace! Robbers and liars are hungry, and after devouring the world they begin a long journey, evading hunters."

That's it, that's it, that's how I understand.

Roland, hum, so there is such a layer in your plan.

Griffith stood up, his town was like a mountain, and his heart was like a deep valley.With a wave of his hand, the invisible temptation and phantom uttered a shattered scream and disappeared into ashes.

Ms. Aviana withdrew her hand as if she had been shocked by electricity, and stared at him in surprise.A few seconds ago, the quasi-knight was still unable to extricate himself from the temptation. Now, he has faced himself directly in the surging pride and unshakable firmness.

"No, I refuse."

Griffith exclaimed, "My favorite thing, Griffith, is to say no to those self-righteous evil gods.

"Even if Extraordinary people all over the world are tempted by the evil god to become his lackeys, I will stand by the side of mortals and face my own destiny.

"If they have any plots and tricks, let them come here. My comrades and I will let them try it. It's still not good to ride a spear!"

……

Ms. Aviana stared at him, her beautiful eyes shining with approval and satisfaction.She floated up and nodded to Griffith with a warm smile on her face:

"You passed the test, Griffith.

"Now, go find Galadia, she should be in the kitchen. By the way, tell her that the meat here is all soy products. If you want to eat barbecue, you can take her to Baltimore."

　The sixth volume is over.The seventh volume, which starts tomorrow, retracts all the lines about Christa. Griffith will face the conspiracy of the evil god, and then start the adventure with a brand new look.Please look forward to the seventh volume - "War Knights and Gods".
