Durin's Diary

Chapter 674 Discussion
Du Lin met Anta, the silly girl he had adopted.

Like Alyssa, she had a hanging badge on her chest with their photos and identification on it. There should be something like a chip in the entire badge.

But all these thoughts could be left behind. Du Lin now looked at the deer in front of him and asked, "Why are you here too?"

Then he heard a long story about the old sage's little deer coming here and eventually connecting with Director Sun Guanzhi.

Psychic energy is entering this world in many ways. If Du Lin didn't already understand that everything is safe, the only thing he can do now is to try to patch up the leaks before everything becomes irreversible.

Fortunately, it really wasn't a hole in the sky.

And Alyssa's growth also made Durin happy. Watching her activate the lightsaber, Durin was even more happy that the psychic path had finally been found - in this way, both Lid and Lann would have a way to become stronger.

I can teach you the ways of psychic power, but you must also tell me why you seek books on how to hunt the Old Gods.

Du Lin told Nuwa about his acquaintance with the old one-eyed man.

If I'm not mistaken, the one standing in front of Du Lin should be the emotional side of Nuwa.

The rational side has always been in the Western Land. It should be independent of emotions and want to end all disputes, including resolving all the influences of the old gods on that land.

·I see, it seems he still won’t give up.

"he?"

Yes, my emotional self is the embodiment of femininity, the embodiment of compassion and love. But I also understand that compassion and love alone cannot save the lives of those on earth. I must put an end to my new colleagues' interference with those creatures. So, my rational self transformed into a man and headed for that land... But I failed. I have no experience in struggle, no instinct for killing, and even strangling a rabbit would make me feel ashamed.

Having reached this point, the god sighed and looked at Dulin.

Eventually, I united with the Nameless One from another timeline, who you are familiar with as the Original Creator.

"I know."

The girls didn't understand, but Du Lin knew it clearly.

He finally found a rational being from his own timeline who could replace me: you, Du Lin.

Du Lin smiled.

He looked at Anta and Alisa.

If Anta was somewhat prepared, then it was the first time that Alyssa heard such a speech.

She was silent for a moment, thinking for a while, and finally looked at Du Lin: "Du Lin... is he the savior that the mentor and the nameless person found for this land?"

You can say that, but I believe you, Du Lin, will not feel that way.

"Yes, I never believed that one person could save the world, because what I have experienced and read since I was a child are the facts and history of countless mortals shedding blood and sacrificing their lives to establish a new era."

At this point, Du Lin looked at his hands and said, "I don't admit that I am a savior. I can slaughter for this land and kill for this world, but I firmly believe that I am just a mortal. I am not a substitute for your rationality. On the contrary, if the embodiment of your rationality stands in my way, I will kill him."

It's precisely because of this insight that Mr. Anonymous was able to find you among the vast sea of ​​people. Think about it, from your own time, looking back at the millennia of human civilization, why has no one been able to replace you? Because everyone has weaknesses. And you, with a heart as hard as stone, for your ideals and beliefs, you can be the most compassionate leader or the most brutal butcher. This land needs fearless people like you, because for those of the past, weakness was their greatest weakness.

Director Sun looked at Du Lin with a smile on his face.

You have no such weaknesses, you are fearless, you...will become our best gravedigger.

"you……"

I am also a member of the Old Days. There are eight of them here. Director Sun said, turning to look at Alyssa.

Child, I must face death. Only when all the old gods die can this universe escape its most tragic fate and truly break away from the terrifying future. Otherwise, all beings who know this will eventually cause them to return.

Alyssa didn't understand, but she obviously respected her mentor's choice very much.

"Since you said their bodies are here, can I take action here directly?" Du Lin asked.

She shook her head.

Like me, their souls are still floating on this land. If you smash their bodies directly, you will free them from their imprisonment.

Du Lin nodded - as he expected, for these old gods, the body was actually a shackle.

"But what about you?"

My soul is divided into two, and the incomplete soul is destined to go nowhere. My sensibility can only act here, and my rational incarnation can only walk on that land.

Director Sun sighed here and looked at Alyssa.

Alyssa, do you have any questions?

"If Durin comes from another world, if you are all destroyed, then what about him?" The little deer asked a question that Durin wanted to ask but didn't want to ask in front of Anta.

Anta was stunned for a moment, then immediately walked to Dulin's side. She reached out and hugged Dulin's arm: "I don't care where you come from, I only know that you have faced danger for me."

Du Lin nodded, then looked at Director Sun: “Since Alyssa asked for me, please give an answer.”

You can ask about the timeline you are in. I have a deal with Anonymous, you can live again in your timeline.

She was silent for a moment and sighed.

I know this is too cruel for you, so if you are willing to stay in this timeline, become a watcher like me, and be forgotten by mortals...

"Can I be included?" Anta asked. "It would be very lonely to be alone. I want to stay with Dulin, even until the end of time, even until the end of the world."

Alyssa also stood up at this time: “Count me in, no, count everyone in.”

There are too many people, I don’t know if it will be successful.

"You can count me in." At this time, a small voice appeared in the hall.

Everyone turned their heads to look at a strange prairie elf boy standing in the corridor.

He smiled and looked at Du Lin: "Sun Guanzhi, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Yes, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, Sun Guanzhi.

Du Lin understood at once - these two were actually the same person. He and she were both Sun Guanzhi, but one was the embodiment of rationality and the other was an emotional existence.

"I was born in Chang Tang in my previous life and recently awakened to the knowledge of my previous life. Now, I have sensed that the coordinates of the books I set up have been activated, so I came to take a look."

Having said that, he walked up to Du Lin with a smile and said, "The psychic surge has given many people new opportunities, and I am one of them. However, it seems that Master Wuming is kind enough to help us find a killer like you."

"I'm just doing what I should do." Du Lin is humble about this.
