The fisherman druid is in another world
Chapter 509
Chapter 509
Some say that hell is already on earth.
But there are people who live happily in such a hell on earth.
There are also people who, even in hell, can still maintain hope and always look up to heaven.
So, whether it is hell or not, to a certain extent, depends on the way you look at things.
Even if the world is really hell, a positive attitude and the ability to find joy in suffering can make life not seem too bad.
After all, life itself is a miracle. Traveling around the world and seeing all things in the world, even if it is painful, should be regarded as the price of life. Try to stay longer instead of rushing back.
So from this perspective, does it matter what kind of person you become?
Important, but not that important.
We welcome traditional classics and do not fear heresy.
You only live once, don't let yourself down.
After all, if you don’t even love yourself, who else can you expect to love?
Who is born to be a tool that exists only for the benefit of others? From a certain perspective, altruism is nothing more than a better self-interest.
As a highly egoistic person, Hei Luobo has repeatedly polished and revised this set of rhetoric, and has been practicing it in his own life.
Correspondingly, he understands the mentality of people of the same type very well, and can basically tell at a glance whether the target is the same type as him.
This may sound a bit exaggerated, but it is the fact. One can only say that the extraordinary and mysterious part, in Hei Luobo's case, was not revealed in the proper place, but unfolded in a crooked way.
In addition, there were indeed plenty of resources at hand and a relatively open landscape, so the price they offered directly shut the word "no" in the mouths of Kadiwei and the others, and they could not utter any word.
Anyone who can become a high-level legend or even a saint has insufficient IQ.
And none of Kadiwei and his companions lack experience and are ignorant of the ways of the world.
Therefore, they knew very well that Hei Luobo's trick of using someone else's talent to pay tribute to Buddha was actually very vicious.
The one who truly rewards them for their generosity towards others is the God of Nature, and these coveted fruits will become the spoils of the Gods and their minions in the near future.
Therefore, Hei Luobo can be generous and is not afraid that they will not contribute.
Hei Luobo gave Kadiwei and the others some time to think, and then added: "We all know that transactions like this usually have two major difficulties. One is that the rewards and risks are not attractive enough, and the other is the lack of trust between each other.
And I have secured both for you.
The remuneration can be paid in advance. Once the contract is signed, the remuneration will be paid immediately.
As for the issue of trust, it can be reflected in the signed agreement.
There are no demigods among you. If you sign a contract directly with the gods, you may be deceived by the gods and lose all your money.
So, I'm in. You sign a contract with me.
You have seen how much I have made this time. I must say that I am very optimistic about my future, and this is what I deserve and what I have worked hard for.
After all, the risk I took was enormous.
To be honest, this includes making a deal with you.
I made a bet with the God of Nature, betting that my method would enable you to play a better role.
So, I offer you such good conditions not because I am kind, but because I love myself more. "
It must be said that Hei Luobo's rhetoric, at least logically, is easier for Kadiwei and others to accept.
They felt that Hei Luobo had not lied or hidden anything. Hei Luobo had indeed taken advantage of them, but he had also provided them with a highly feasible and excellent option.
At this time, the bear man Bam jumped out again: "What's the matter with that first choice you mentioned? Tell me about it!"
Kaidiwei rebuked angrily: "Are you really stupid, or crazy? The first choice is obviously deeply tied to the God of Nature. The God of Nature has no chance of winning. It can even be said that he only has a few hours to live. He will die before dawn. At this time, you want to board the warship of the God of Nature?"
Under normal circumstances, Bam would have just laughed foolishly, and used this kind of crazy and stupid behavior to give himself a way out, which was also a disguised way of acknowledging the authority of Kadiwei.
But now, at this critical moment that will decide his fate, Bam didn't want to endure it anymore and cursed back, "You are the one with a bag in your head. If it is really that simple, how can it be a cost-effective option? And it is ranked first?"
Kediwei was very embarrassed and annoyed to be talked back to by Bam, who always presented himself as a rough guy in the group. But Kediwei had to admit that what Bam said made some sense.
It’s not that Kadiwei didn’t think about this, but he instinctively didn’t want to think about it too deeply.
The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. According to this logic, immortality, longevity, such a one-step benefit, at their level of strength, what price would they have to pay to be considered a deal, rather than a gift?
What's more, since they are not related to the family, why should they receive the gift?
Just like what Hei Luobo said to Berkeley before: "Are you worthy?"
Yes, Berkeley was obviously deliberately talking about collapse, but because of this, Kaidiwei felt that "Are you worthy?" was the most heartfelt and unadulterated sentence among all the words of Hei Luobo.
The reason why his mind has changed now is not because Bam's explanation has had an enlightening effect, but because of what Kurobok said later, which made him see clearly Kurobok's persuasive style.
It's not about fooling people with sweet words, but about impressing people with practical stuff.
Under such a premise, immortality and longevity are not just a gimmick to attract attention and make people listen to what comes next, or a pie in the sky specifically aimed at those who are blinded by greed. Instead, it is possible that, as Bam said, it is the most cost-effective option that Black Robo considers himself.
So Kadiwei did not argue with Bam for the sake of face and authority, but looked at Hei Luobo.
Hei Luobo smiled and said, "Yes, this is indeed what I think, and it is the best solution for you. After all, no matter how high your ambitions are, if you die, everything will end.
Being in such a powerful position as we are now, in the eyes of ordinary people, it may be a lofty mountain that we look up to and the ultimate goal for our lifelong struggle.
But we know that we have paid too much for such strength and status, and it is impossible for us to just accept our fate and enjoy the rest of our lives.
If you want to make further progress, the usual path has been cut off, you can only take risks, and the opportunity must be right.
Considering all these, I thought, how great it would be if I could achieve results first and then make up for the shortcomings!
Now, we have got this opportunity.
The cost is naturally very high, but the success rate is not low.
Anyway, if I were in your position, I would choose this path.
After all, even if one obtains the laws that suit oneself, completes the shaping of the ring of laws, and even succeeds in condensing divinity, the step of ascending to godhood is still extremely difficult.
The purpose of ascending to God is nothing more than to seek a higher level of life pattern, which can make up for past shortcomings and allow one to live relatively more freely and happily.
In that case, why not enjoy the results first and then pay the price?
As for the issue that you are most worried about, which is getting on board the ship just before it sinks, there is naturally an explanation for that.
It's just that it involves confidential information. If you want to know, you have to sign a pre-heating contract first."
The warm-up contract is naturally to pave the way for the formal contract.
Let the contracting party see and feel it first to boost their confidence.
Kaidiwei and the others discussed privately and soon reached a consensus. This contract should be signed! If it weren't for Berkeley's incident, they might have hesitated and made up their minds.
But Berkeley's integrity in the face of justice made Kediwei and others feel ashamed and they also felt that they had no way out.
You have to choose between face and substance, right? If you lose face and gain nothing, isn't that a huge loss?
Egoists all follow this logic. It would be best if they could gain both fame and fortune without disappointing anyone. If not, then they should choose one based on the actual situation. The worst thing is to have neither.
Therefore, from a certain perspective, it was Berkeley’s righteousness that forced Kadiwei and his friends to make up their minds to stick to one path until the end.
For Hei Luobo, there is no need to be so fussy. At least he is willing to show some sincerity and experience what it is like to sign a contract with him.
What could it be? It was nothing more than using the power of the law as a constraint, using the soul as a bargaining chip, and concluding an extraordinary agreement. Once violated, one would pay an extremely painful price.
Just like what Hei Luobo said before, if a god signs with a transcendent, the rank and ability will be overwhelming, so it is easy to play tricks. On the contrary, if the rank is the same, the chances of exploiting loopholes will be infinitely close to zero.
After all, Kadiwei and the others are not rookies, and they know how to sign a supernatural contract.
Of course, Hei Luobo still has the possibility to cheat Kadiwei and others. He only needs to let the Blood Snake clone sign, and the breach of contract is nothing more than the corresponding part of the soul being transformed and silent.
There is more room for maneuver in terms of rules.
With the God of Nature as his financial backer, at least when facing extraordinary people of Kadiwei's level, Hei Luobo can stand tall and say that he has no shortage of money.

However, Hei Luobo believes that it is difficult to achieve great things by cheating others.
Especially in the current situation, we need to have the mentality of 'a brave warrior emerges with a huge sum of money, and even if all the money is spent, it can be returned'. This means that the money is not paid by him. If it were him, he would be more generous and straightforward.
Next, the two parties signed the contract.
It went very smoothly and KEDIWEI provided an excellent user experience.
With the contractual constraints, Kadiwei must keep what Hei Luobo says next confidential.
Hei Luobo did not go into detail about the details. He just talked about the concept of Dark Hell and its general situation, such as being located in the inner plane, having a unique design, and having the advantage of being able to control true spirits, etc.
As for the core and framework of the laws, the Three Kings and Seven Dukes, Hei Luobo did not mention them.
Finally, Hei Luobo concluded: "For the God of Nature, as long as you open your mind, then taking a step back may open up a new world.
In the past, the god of nature represented the general trend of this world, but now the man-made darkness created by the united gods is the general trend.
The god of nature has lost power, but still shoulders his inherent responsibilities, which can be regarded as an alternative way of going from luxury to frugality.
Giving up the overall situation and sticking to one corner may not necessarily mean that you cannot survive.
Even if we still can't survive, we still have time to waste. For us, this is a long time measured in thousands of years, and the internal competition is not fierce, so I don't think it's a loss."
Before Kadiwei could bargain, Bam was the first to speak out: "I'll be the touchstone!"
Kaidiwei cursed inwardly, "shit". The most terrible thing for a group is disunity, but Bam was so noble and courageous as to be a guinea pig. He actually also wanted to test the waters.
Hei Luobo acted decisively and immediately made arrangements for Bam.
As the planner and executor of the project, he is in charge of everything and has terrifying power.
If he didn't want to overly irritate Kadiwei and the others, he could have just gone straight to the point of bestowing the rules, instead of doing what he does now, with a ceremony to honor the gods and the act of speaking before the gods to highlight priorities and solemnity, thus embodying the qualities of a high-level worker.
Kadiwei and the others watched from the sidelines. It took a total of five steps, namely contract, soul-stealing, ordination, soul-wearing clothes, and demon-melting clothes. It took only about five minutes for Bam to become a quasi-demon.
The reason why he is called a quasi-demon is not to say that there is any room for Bam to return, but it gives him the opportunity to retain his current self as much as possible.
If his soul is directly transformed into a demon soul, not only will it be extremely risky, his temperament will also change drastically and he will no longer be the same person he is now.
The reason is simple. Although he has the strength of a saint, his soul has not yet transformed into a divine soul.
The transformation from the divine soul to the demonic soul is a transformation at the same level.
Transforming the soul into a demon soul, even if one chooses a lower-level demon soul, requires special thoughts to strengthen the will and anchor the consciousness to ensure that one does not get lost or collapse during the transformation.
And this special thought often chooses to artificially amplify a certain emotion to the extreme.
Especially the dark hell, which is a sentient hell established from the perspective of sentient beings.
Among them, the demon soul is naturally related to the theme, that is, among the many emotions, one or two must be selected as the root, just like the strange people who practice the method of refining the truth and choosing the rules.
But if it is artificially manipulated and emotions are amplified, this tricky approach of taking the peak value enabled by technology as the norm is itself high-risk and has serious side effects. The power of emotions often impacts consciousness before it falls from the peak value, distorting the temperament. Isn't this a drastic change in personality?
But this is something Bam cannot tolerate. He can accept gradual influence but not sudden changes.
So there is the operation of "wearing soul clothes". Although it is called wearing clothes, it is more like the medieval torture device "Iron Maiden". It not only has a shell, but also has magic needles that penetrate deep into the soul.
In this way, to the outside world, Bam conforms to the characteristics of the demon soul, but internally, he is still himself.
But the price is a long-term struggle against demonization. It is very difficult to maintain one's own self.
As for the Demon-Melting Armor, its function is the opposite, preventing Bam from immediately possessing a demonic body.
It is easier to make the flesh and blood turn black and alienated. With the use of extraordinary resources and the constraints of the laws, combined with one's own demon soul, a network constructed of unique elements is generated, and a demon body matching the demon soul is born.
However, the front line is not short of demons of Bam's caliber.
The reason why Hei Luobo came to seduce Kaidiwei and the others was mainly to get them to go out and do some work, not because he was interested in their fighting abilities.
To be more specific, it is the cholera world, including but not limited to setting up anti-oppression societies.
This will undoubtedly be a classic hell of a joke.
The rule of the gods was too dark, and the demons became mentors who inspired the people's free nature and sense of struggle, and led the people to resist oppression and exploitation.
In Hei Luobo's cognition, justice or not does not matter, and serving the country and the people is not the point. The main thing is to stand on the opposite side of the rulers.
For this kind of work, human rapists are undoubtedly relatively suitable. After all, except for their different positions, their thinking patterns are basically the same as those of humans.
With the actual demonstration of Hei Luobo and the user experience of Bam, two people immediately made up their minds not to be human.
There is no need to worry about being killed, nor will your temperament change drastically. Even when fighting against the invasion of evil, you can choose a passive mode and use secret methods to numb your mind and not feel pain.
Even though it won't take many years for him to become a real demon, so what?
It takes several years, even more than ten years, to become a demon. This buffer time is basically enough.
Ordinary people may not be able to understand how these big figures who they need to look up to and fantasize about can turn evil so easily?
From Hei Luobo's perspective, he can realize that everyone who successfully climbs to extraordinary heights is basically a paranoid or has a crazy side that has been suppressed for many years.
After all, spiritual practice itself is a series of adventures and life-and-death challenges.
Their lives have a lot in common with those of the knife-slinging bloodthirsty people, such as mercenaries and bounty hunters. It is normal to have psychological problems.
Not to mention, the oppression and destruction of individuals in the era in which Kadiwei and others lived was far greater than that in the normal supernatural world.
Since there is such a serious problem, the saying "the castle is always breached from within" comes into play again.
The elves' kingdom of trees is like this, so is the spiritual fortress of the strange ones.
