The world needs kindness.
It is because of goodwill that human beings can continue to this day... No, it should be said that the birth of human beings, and even the origin of ancient life, is due to the goodwill of nature and the miracle of the universe.
But there is also such a saying: The road to hell is often paved with good intentions.
This is actually a warning.
Not all good intentions are desirable. Sometimes goodness does not necessarily lead to good results, and evil does not necessarily lead to bad ends. This is true for both the giver and the receiver.
Good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. It is people's hope, not reality.
Goodwill does not equal justice.
Good intentions are not infallible.
This is especially true when sacrificing oneself to save others.
Even if you just give up your own interests to save the lives of others, this is a noble act and a righteousness that human beings should praise, but it does not mean "right".
So what is "correct"
It is not correct to carry out selfishness, give up good intentions, and regard other people's lives as worthless.
It is not correct to carry out goodwill, give up selfishness, and dedicate one's own interests.
In the final analysis, which side is "correct"
Seiji questioned himself, tortured his own heart, and thought deeply.
He wants to focus on his own interests.
He also wants to show kindness to others.
In the end, the most clichéd conclusion was reached——
Only the best of both worlds is "correct"!
"I want to ask." After the silence, Seiji said, "If I choose the second option, is it possible to use my strength to save those dead while I become stronger?"
Wei Meng slightly widened her eyes.
"...It's possible, but extremely difficult and dangerous." She said in a deep voice.
"Drinking the spirit wine that fuses energy, it's not easy just to stay awake, not to mention resurrecting people with spells."
"Even if you can perform the spell according to my instructions, the risk will be extremely high if you use the power that is not yet stable. If you make a mistake, you will be severely injured or even die."
"And even if you perform the spell without any mistakes, the possibility of successfully saving the dead is much lower than using spirit wine directly."
I don't think you can do it.
Although he didn't hear the other party say those words, Seiji could feel the meaning.
The difficulty of making this female unicorn say something "extremely difficult and dangerous" must be equivalent to creating a miracle.
Logically speaking, you shouldn't do such a stupid thing, but...
"I choose the second option." Seiji said firmly.
Whenever possible, he was able to try!
As for the difficulty? Danger
There is a great power to read files from the brother of the system, so I'm afraid! !
At this moment, Seiji exuded a strong aura.
Weimeng was shocked by this momentum, and there was a wave in her heart.
But she quickly calmed herself down and confirmed, "Are you sure?"
"I am very sure."
"If something goes wrong, I may not be able to save you, you will really die."
"I won't." Seiji said firmly, looking fearless.
Wei Meng looked at him deeply for a while.
Then she moved him back some distance, then raised the spear, gathering strength.
The body of the gun glowed with white light, and the tip of the gun ignited a blazing flame. With one shot, he stabbed straight into the ground.
Wei Meng let go of the spear, quickly made a mudra with both hands, and recited the mantra.
A brighter radiance bloomed from the gun body, and the platinum streamer spread outward along the ground, gradually forming a huge and complex array.
There was a crimson light on the array, and there was a rumbling sound on the ground. The bloody stream of light converged on the gun along the array, and then passed to the spirit wine suspended above the tail of the gun, causing the spirit wine to increase and gradually turn black.
Afterwards, Seiji and the others saw that the trees in the forest disappeared one after another, and the flowers of the other shore disappeared in clusters, and the atmosphere of the environment gradually changed, slowly returning to the appearance of the normal space.
Then I saw the red moon in the sky burning with white flames, which soon turned into a fireball, burning violently and slowly shrinking.
This process continued for a while, and finally the forest, the other shore flower, and the red moon all disappeared from everyone's sight.
At this time, the spirit wine suspended in mid-air had more than tripled in size, almost pure black in color, and looked a little sticky, giving off an ominous atmosphere faintly.
It looks like it will turn black if you drink it... Seiji looked at the mysterious liquid that changed his painting style, and complained in his heart.
After the operation was over, Weimeng controlled the spirit wine to float in front of Seiji.
"Just drink it like this? Are there any precautions?"
"Drink as soon as possible."
Well, cheers.
Seiji moved closer to the pitch-black liquid.
"Brother!" shouted.
Xiaoshi couldn't stand it anymore and ran over.
"What is this thing?" she asked.
"It's the wine of fighting blood...the version with some ingredients." Seiji replied, "Sorry, Xiaoshi, I used up your share too."
"Brother wants to drink it?" Kagura Shi didn't care about what happened to her share of spirit wine, what she cared about was the actions of her stepbrother.
"Yeah." Seiji nodded.
"Is there any danger?"
"A little."
"Please tell the truth, Brother Seiji!"
It's hard to believe that it's just a "point", because this thing looks terrible!
"I'll be fine, she'll take care of me." Seiji pointed at Weimeng, using the boss as a shield.
Kagurashi glanced at the figure, his eyes flickering.
"It doesn't look good with spirit wine, but don't worry, it's really fine." Seiji comforted again.
However, Kagurashi still has a bad feeling.
This dark liquid really makes people feel wrong, if you drink it...
"I want to drink too," she said. "Here's my share... I want to drink with my brother."
"This... can't."
"Why?"
"Because... if you drink it separately, the effect will not be good enough." Seiji said, "I will compensate you with other things later, so just give me this spiritual wine first, Xiaoshi."
Kagura's bad premonition grew stronger.
She was about to say something more when a voice sounded from beside her—
"Don't delay any longer, the longer the time, the more unstable the spirit wine will be."
Hearing what Weimeng said, Seiji turned to Lingjiu.
"Brother..." Kagurashi wanted to stop, but Weimeng approached in an instant, and with his right hand on her shoulder, she was frozen!
Then Weimeng raised his left hand, aimed at Yize and the others who were running over, and fixed them all!
Seiji took a sip of the spirit wine.
The entrance feels slippery, a little cold, and tastes like bitter red wine.
After taking one bite, a subtle chill suddenly surged, and quickly spread throughout the body.
After drinking it in one sip, I felt my body getting colder and colder, and at the same time, I also felt a slight scorching heat gradually flowing, and the overall feeling was indescribably wonderful.
Until a certain critical point was exceeded, Seiji seemed to hear a bang and fell into an unknown realm...
…
pain.
It hurts.
It's a sharp pain.
Huge, countless, endless, exist here, colliding, interlacing, overlapping, merging...
He was in it, hit, crushed, stirred, torn, melted...
Extreme pain is unbearable pain for human beings, repeated time and time again, countless times, endlessly.
He resisted, struggled, angry, collapsed, mad, cursed, hated... and finally died.
This is a miserable state beyond the imagination of living human beings, and it is indescribable in all the languages in the world.
Everything is meaningless, the whole world is nothingness, the so-called beauty is nothing but tiny impurities, only death and eternity.
... ... ...
...
… No.
Even in the extreme of pain and misery, the negation of negation of everything still remains.
Although it is extremely small and insignificant, it has always existed.
It's like the only starlight in the deep and long night.
He will wake up eventually.
