Durin's Diary

Chapter 1081 As Worthy of Being a Ruler

By October, Dulin's eyesight had deteriorated somewhat. He also began experiencing frequent nosebleeds.

Daju gave Dulin another physical examination and confirmed that Dulin's body was in irreversible collapse—the lifespan of his mortal body had come to an end.

“I’m so sorry, Dulin. I thought we could witness a century of this land.” Big Orange sighed, “You are too moral. Although you always say that you are a bad thing, I have never seen a bad thing live like you, let alone a good thing with such a sense of honor.”

After Daju finished speaking, he hugged Dulin.

Dulin smiled and returned the hug: "Maybe this is just an extension of the retribution that belonged to me in my past life, but I still won't regret it. If the altar called Truth needs sacrifices, I will sleep on it like this."

Dulin has entrusted the matter of Eternal Day Island entirely to Poole.

As for the Three Saints Society, Dulin had already made arrangements. In the end, Dulin did not sell the territory of the Great Forest. After all, the people in the territory believed in Dulin. Even though there were rumors that Dulin was seriously ill, and many extraordinary beings knew that Dulin would eventually be transformed, the citizens were still willing to believe in Dulin.

This actually put a lot of pressure on Dulin—their faith forced Dulin to use more power to suppress his divinity, and his overall decline was unstoppable.

But Dulin couldn't stop all of this—did he need everyone? Did Dulin not need their worship?

It's a dilemma, but at least their passion is real, which makes Dulin feel a little emotional—in his previous life, he had never been so followed and trusted by people.

“I told you, you’re really not a bad person,” Eleven said with a smile. “What bad person would be so popular with the people?”

“That’s because I brought them jobs, gave them wages, and prevented them from being enslaved. Anyone who could do what I did would also be loved and respected like this.” Dulin remained clear-headed about this.

“These are things that not just anyone can do.” Eleven didn’t think so. He looked at Dulin and said, “You give them equality, you try your best not to exploit them, and you protect their children. These three things are not things that ordinary people can do, let alone that you have done them all.”

“But in the end, I still couldn’t bring the best of everything to this world.” Dulin looked at Eleven. He had heard Eleven say that there were things in this world better than Northernism, but unfortunately, it was too ahead of its time. And apart from Dulin, he didn’t think anyone on this land could maintain this ideology.

Moreover, Eleven wasn't sure whether his approach was actually a good thing for this land.

Good things will definitely happen, but unfortunately, fate doesn't show mercy to anyone.

So when the embodiment of rationality approached him again, saying that Director Sun was waiting for him at the research center, Du Lin had a sudden realization.

"It seems that I have finally reached the end."

“You can say goodbye to them, we still have time.” The embodiment of rationality paused for a moment after saying this, “By the way, I’ve separated from her.”

“I know, from now on you’re a normal person.” Dulin said, smiling as he patted the man on the shoulder: “What should I call you from now on?”

"...Just call me Sun Renyi, after all, this is my name in this life. Although Director Sun and I were of one mind for a long time, we are ultimately different. I am me, and she is her." At this point, the embodiment of rationality, no, from now on he is Sun Renyi.

It was Sun Renyi's sigh that reminded Du Lin of what had happened back then.

He sighed, "I already said goodbye to them, so let's go see Director Sun instead."

"Okay, open the door. These are my coordinates."

"It's a bit far."

Looking at the coordinates Sun Renyi handed him, Du Lin sighed, then opened a portal. ………………

It was the same hall, the same skeleton, but this time the red soul fire in its eye sockets shrieked as it saw Dulin: "Isn't this the lover of the embodiment of emotion? You've come. I never expected her to trust you so much."

Dulin smiled. He didn't believe anything this out-of-control body said—what did it mean to be a lover? He didn't know her at all.

As for him, he's a complete idiot. If Dulin were to believe a single word of his, he would truly be a laughingstock.

At this moment, Director Sun appeared at the end of the corridor and walked towards Du Lin.

With each step he took, everything behind him responded—the shattered fragments of the main screen began to tremble slightly. Defying the laws of physics, they no longer floated aimlessly, but instead, as if attracted by an invisible magnetic force, moved precisely and silently towards each other. A ghostly blue "liquid of light" flowed along the edges of the fragments, and the irregular cracks healed and disappeared at a visible speed, the screen surface quickly becoming smooth as a mirror, and the deep black reappeared.

Then, the large screen in the corridor started playing the news.

The story, which happened at some unknown time and place, is playing out once again before Dulin at this moment.

Figures began to appear around Director Sun, constantly communicating with him until their presence was swallowed up by another entity.

“She’s becoming increasingly unable to control herself, just like you,” Sun Renyi said.

Du Lin nodded with some understanding: "That's why I'm here, Director Sun."

"You've always been so accommodating, I'm so glad, Dulin," she said.

It was as if she had known Dulin for a long time.

But Dulin didn't care; he simply turned to look at the standing skeleton.

"You two are about to merge."

"Yes, we've merged. My spirit and body will become one. Dulin, please destroy us, destroy the last being in this world that has ever come into contact with Chaos." As she said this, she smiled and opened her arms.

The skeleton walked towards Director Sun, and it opened its arms.

You still trust him so much. He has betrayed you so many times. Don't you understand? Becoming Nuwa and ruling this land is what we should be doing, instead of being a resentful woman and ruining our bright future together. It's not too late to stop now.

"Enough! Don't you understand why I chose Dulin?" After saying that, Director Sun smiled and hugged her partner.

The spirit and the skeleton vanished in that instant.

The entire research center is no longer a ruin, but rather seems to have returned to a time when its functions were still fully operational.

A long-haired girl stood there, looking at Dulin with tears in her eyes.

"Well, have you made up your mind? Let's run away to the ends of the earth."
