Chapter 63: The truth comes out

Guo Linglong, who knows all the evil of mankind and has the ability to grasp it in her hands, understands the dissatisfaction and resentment in the mask's heart...

Being in the hands of a witch as dazzling as a diamond, her filthiness and meanness were like being exposed to the sun. All kinds of unbearable things were infinitely magnified, which naturally gave rise to a sense of inferiority, and this sense of inferiority further extended to endless irritability.

What's worse is that her magic is of auxiliary type. Without the brilliance of diamond, she would just be a tool that could be used by others. This feeling of being forced to live under someone else's roof made Mask extremely unbearable.

But... no matter how much I understand it, I absolutely cannot agree with it!

After defeating the unreasonable malice with unreasonable malice, Guo Linglong turned her back and stopped looking at the miserable appearance of the Masked Witch. She said calmly, "It's time to go, Xia. It's really disappointing to see too much dirty stuff. We need to go back and wash our eyes."

"and many more……"

At this moment, Daiya called Guo Linglong. She looked at the dying Mask hesitantly, then took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Guo Linglong, and begged in a low voice: "Can you give me some medical supplies? If I leave it alone, she will really die."

"Dija, are you crazy?"

Xia was shocked and grabbed the Diamond Witch's shoulders and said loudly: "You are no longer kind, but stupid."

"Don't worry, I will just keep her alive, then break her arms and legs, seal her mouth, and then hand her over to the magical girl after the next game starts."

Daiya sighed and said, "After all, we have known each other. Even if she treats me like this, I... am not her."

"Am I not her..."

Guo Linglong looked at the witch in front of her with great admiration, and after a while she ordered Xia: "Give it to her for the sake of the diamond, but you owe me this favor."

In response, Xia could only helplessly curse her friend for being so stupid while walking towards the dying Masked Witch.

"Don't say you owe me a favor..."

Daiya, who was a little relieved, smiled bitterly and said, "If it weren't for you, I would have really been stuck here today. I didn't expect that I would be saved by someone who I had troubled before."

"No, you misunderstood. Although I did save you in the end, my original intention was to save myself."

Guo Linglong shook her head and said helplessly: "Letting her abuse you will only encourage the evil trends in Dark Eden. I took action to prevent myself from being defeated due to my lack of strength and bad luck in the future, and then being caught by others and having to do something to them."

“Results are everything.”

Daiya promised confidently: "I will definitely find a time to repay this favor."

"You can also pay it back now."

Guo Linglong said playfully: "Although I have no intention of establishing my own personal power, I just want to find a place to settle down in this Dark Eden, but if it's you... I don't mind."

Faced with the olive branch extended by Guo Linglong, Daya was obviously moved.

"But I can't reply to you right now. Can you give me some time..."

Daiya smiled reluctantly and said, "It's a bit embarrassing to say this, but I really need some time to rest."

"..."

Although she helped Diamond block the Masked Witch's self-destruction attack, it was obvious that her spirit and worldview were still extremely strongly impacted. After thinking for a while, Guo Linglong nodded in understanding and said, "As long as you have time, it's fine. Go take a hot spring bath and eat something good. Don't take it too seriously. Scum like that only accounts for a very small part of the human race. Just think of it as bad luck."

After saying that, Guo Linglong turned around gracefully, waved her hand and left under Diya's complicated gaze... At this moment, the Diamond Witch woke up from her trance and realized that she had a preconceived misunderstanding about the man in front of her because she had come forward to ask for an explanation without any reason just because the other party held her sisters' slave contract.

Also, although he said that his original intention was just to save herself, his action of blocking his ears so that he could not hear what the mask was saying had revealed that he really cared about her, cared about her, a stranger who had been making things difficult for him before.

This kind of concern is the opposite of unwarranted malice and kindness that does not require any reason.

Daiya was so ashamed of receiving such kindness that she didn't know what to say.

She was not stupid. Although her ears were blocked and she could not hear what the mask said, she was sure that it must be very excessive, very excessive, very excessive.

But the man blocked his ears before the masked man opened his mouth. It was obvious that he had predicted what the masked man was going to do. This kind of foresight was not magic, but based on previous experience. It was obvious that the man had also met people like the masked man before, so he was so skilled in blocking his ears to prevent himself from being hurt by bad words. Although they were both good people, he was far superior to him in every aspect.

I...will it be possible for me to be like him one day, and after facing the darkest side of human nature, still believe in the truth and goodness of human nature as always, and still help others unwaveringly?

Daiya lowered her head, thinking with great envy.

----------------

Where is this place?

After saying goodbye to Diya, Guo Linglong planned to look for the country cat who had seduced other girls somewhere, but in a trance, he ran into a sudden fog.

The fog soon dissipated, and when Guo Linglong came to her senses, she found that her position had changed.

This was not Valgips Night, and there were no witches around, but rather a simple and incredibly empty room.

Guo Linglong was wondering if she was kidnapped by some witch using magic while looking around. This extremely simple room was even worse than his shabby rental house. At least his room had a TV and a fan, but here there was only an ordinary bed and an ordinary table, with a bookshelf full of books next to it. Apart from that, there was nothing else.

Where on earth is this…

"This is my bedroom."

The dull sound coming from behind startled Guo Linglong so much that he turned around subconsciously, and saw the huge body of the "maid", who had come here silently at some point, and the inexplicable strange gaze under the helmet stayed on him.

"I called you here this time mainly to have a good talk with you. In the last fantasy world, you released a Pacific Ocean-sized amount of water on the magical girl... I think we need to have a good talk."

"Errr..."

Guo Linglong shuddered, her heart rate soared, and goose bumps appeared on her back.

Although she didn't know how the maid knew it, Guo Linglong was clear about one thing: it seemed like she was going to be Game Over.

Chapter 64: The truth about Dark Eden?

In the empty room, standing next to the maid who was as huge as the Leshan Giant Buddha, Guo Linglong felt an indescribable pressure weighing heavily on her heart.

This was not due to a difference in strength or status, nor was it because he had done something wrong. It was simply because of the maid's inexplicable and unpredictable personal temperament that put a huge pressure on him. If one had to find an adjective to describe this temperament...

He felt that what was in front of him was not a person, but the starry night sky, the stars, and the irresistible... fate?

"Don't you want to explain this to me?"

Feeling the heavy gaze of the maid lingering on her, as well as the emotionless questioning, Guo Linglong pondered for a while, then shook her head and said, "There is nothing to explain. In fact, I deliberately let Xingguang and Hongcha go."

The man's frankness seemed to surprise the maid, so she asked again: "Why are you so frank? Aren't you afraid that I will punish you?"

"Why punish me?"

Guo Linglong asked back: "Did I do something wrong?"

“You didn’t do anything wrong?”

The maid's voice remained calm and steady as she said, "You are so kind to our enemies, but so cruel to the witch. I have to wonder if you are the kind of person who is in Cao's camp but your heart is with Han."

"I attacked the Bullet Witch harshly because she provoked me first. I attacked the Masked Witch harshly to protect myself and because she really pissed me off. As for the Magical Girl... let me ask a question first."

Guo Linglong took a step forward under the pressure that seemed like fate, and whispered, "Why must the witch kill the magic girl?"

Without waiting for the maid to answer, Guo Linglong said, "Because the magic girls are too much of a hindrance. As long as they are around, the witch can't let go and distort the fantasy world, so the magic girls must be killed. But it's different for me. To me, magic girls are not a hindrance. Just like how I use black tea, they will become my trump card to distort the world, so there is no need for me to kill those magic girls. I even have to let them go."

Looking at the eloquent Guo Linglong, the maid tilted her head and asked in confusion, "You make it sound like not only can I not blame you, but I have to praise you?"

"Is not it?"

Guo Linglong pressed her chest and looked at the maid fearlessly: "I did let those magical girls go, but what is the job of a witch? It is to distort the world, collect distortion points, and awaken the sleeping gods. Maid, am I not doing my job well? Am I an incompetent villain in completing the mission?"

"..."

After a long silence, the maid said in a depressed voice: "Now that you mention it, if I still blame you, it would be purely willful. It's a pity to waste such unparalleled talent... Obviously, as long as you are willing to use force on the magical girl, you can untie the 'binds' and become more powerful."

Guo Linglong shook her head and said without any regret: "But if that happens, I won't be myself anymore."

"That's all."

The maid sighed with some regret, shook her head and said, "Even if you let the magical girl go, you can still do your job perfectly, but at least be more restrained. Letting the girl go so obviously will make other witches have a problem with you...Okay, the door is over there, go ahead."

The crisis is resolved!

Looking at the maid seeing him off, Guo Linglong breathed a sigh of relief. The magic of language did not disappoint him as usual. But just like that, it was not enough...

"Maid, can I ask you a question?"

The man who was not in a hurry to leave took a step forward and asked in a deep voice: "Those magical girls told me that once the gods awaken, they will bring eternal disaster to the earth and spread chaos and death. Can you tell me if this is true?"

"interesting……"

The maid looked at the man who asked such a question arrogantly with amusement, and then asked back: "First, why should I answer you? Second, even if I answer, will you believe it?"

"I think that in order for me to feel more at ease and work harder, it is necessary for the maid to answer this 'simple' question. It doesn't matter even if the answer is a lie. I will see through the lie and then deduce the truth."

Guo Linglong stated in a neither humble nor arrogant manner the reasons why the other party had to answer... The benefits of his existence and his abilities to Dark Eden were self-evident. It was worth taking the risk to exchange this capital for the tip of the iceberg of the truth!

"In fact, the truth is exactly the opposite of what the magical girl said."

As if she felt that there was nothing to hide, the maid replied readily, "After our god awakens from his slumber, he will do his best to protect the earth. He will make the sky bluer, he will bring spring to the dead trees, he will fill the desert with flowers, he will make the muddy rivers clear again, and he will restore the ecological environment that has gradually spiraled out of control back to its original state."

"That doesn't sound bad."

Guo Linglong was half-believing and half-doubting and wanted to continue asking something, but at this moment, the maid changed the subject and said, "Compared to what the gods will do after awakening, don't you think there is something more worthy of curiosity? Why am I holding this event?"

"In order to hunt down the magical girls who are in the way, I want to complete the militarization reform among the witches."

Guo Linglong rubbed her chin and asked in confusion: "Isn't that the case?"

"Of course not..."

The maid's tone was still steady as she said, "Whether the magical girls are willing or not, when they participate in the plot, they are destroying the plot. All they can do is try to control the destruction within a small scope and delay the time for the gods to revive."

"That is to say, if we leave the magical girls alone, the gods will eventually revive, but if that's the case, why hold such an unnecessary event?"

Guo Linglong looked at the maid with doubt and asked, "Since there is a witch who has lived for two thousand years, then we should have plenty of time, right?"

"To protect humanity, of course."

The maid's matter-of-fact words made Guo Linglong stunned for a long time before she uttered an "eh".

"To protect humanity? What does that mean?"

Facing the confused Guo Linglong, the maid shook her head and replied with something that made him even more confused: "I don't know. I don't know why the Three Sages Alliance wants to do this, I don't know what their plans are, and I don't know why they want to exterminate humans. But... I can use magic to let you see the future that will come soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, an unknown mist came again. The next moment, the scenery in front of her changed again. The maid's room disappeared, and instead, it slowly appeared in front of Guo Linglong - full of dead silence...

Silver Earth?

Chapter 65: Silver Future

The Earth... the blue Earth...

Guo Linglong, standing in the universe, looked at the silver planet in front of him with great shock. The earth, which should have been painted blue by a large amount of sea water, now exuded a faint silver-white glow in front of him.

Just when he was at a loss, a sudden gravitational force pulled him towards the surface of the planet at high speed.

During the rapid fall, Guo Linglong, who was not disturbed by any potential energy, saw clearly - the silver sky, the silver earth, the silver high-rise buildings, the silver sea, the silver trees, and the silver... humans?

The humans that were supposed to be everywhere seemed to have been paused, their silver figures frozen in place.

Just as Guo Linglong was looking at this silver world in amazement, the maid suddenly appeared in front of him. As always, she was as tall as a mountain and turned her back to him and asked softly, "How does it feel to be in the silver future?"

Guo Linglong, who had no sense of reality at all, stood on the silver road, silently looking at the silver human waiting for the silver car under the silver traffic light.

These humans stood motionless, like silver statues, but their vivid expressions made Guo Linglong feel a strong sense of disobedience, a sense so strong that his body began to tremble unconsciously.

“Is the feeling chilling?”

The maid paused for a moment and then explained, "These are humans, at least they were humans before. They are not just covered with a layer of silver. Even if you split them in half, you won't see any traces of flesh and bones. They have completely turned into silver on the material level."

"Human, no..."

Guo Linglong looked at the silver cars, chairs, and houses around her in disbelief: "Has the entire planet turned into silver?!"

The maid clapped her hands, and the next moment the fog came again and enveloped Guo Linglong's eyes. When the fog dissipated and his vision was restored, all the silver disappeared, and he returned to the maid's room again. If it weren't for the shock still filling his chest, he would have thought that the silver future he had seen before was just a nightmarish illusion.

"My magic is the magic that can reveal fate."

The maid gently explained to Guo Linglong what had happened before: "That silver future is the fate of the Earth and mankind, and it is obvious that the power that can refine the entire planet into silver is not the power that humans should have."

"Does it fundamentally change the properties of matter, just like my magic?"

Guo Linglong raised her hand in confusion, the golden flame of alchemy burning in her palm: "Only magic that goes against common sense can create that silver future, but..."

"Dark Eden doesn't have that kind of silver magic."

The maid affirmed, "On this planet, the only people who can use magic besides us are the Three Sages, so it is obvious that the Three Sages are the culprits behind the creation of the Silver Future."

"But why do this?"

Guo Linglong recalled the encounters she had with Starlight and Black Tea. One would be timid for the sake of the hostages, and the other would feel huge guilt for his disregard for life. Would such an alliance really do something like turning the planet into silver?

"do not know."
