The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 16: Work for God

Views:

Hao Ren watched his eyes, his nose, his mouth, his heart, and sat on the chair motionlessly, with his hands on his knees, with a very solemn expression—he realized that he was facing a situation beyond human comprehension, and if he still wanted to To enjoy the rest of life smoothly, the most sensible choice is to restrain your usual lazy and carefree style, and listen carefully to the speech of the woman who claims to be a god in front of you. "How does it feel to experience Genesis?" Raven 12345 glanced at Hao Ren with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Hao Ren observed Raven 12345's expression, confirmed that this woman was really easy to talk, and then grinned embarrassingly: "I want to ask you if this is a hallucination... Will you kill me?"

"No, because many people have asked you this question, I am not surprised at all," Raven 12345 shrugged, "I will take you to see more things until you fully understand and believe what I tell you , but not now. Now you just have to take my words seriously for now, and then we can talk about work."

Hao Ren raised his hand to signal the other party to stop, because he needed time to sort out what happened.

He thought that the bizarre events he experienced were nothing more than events on Earth, but this woman in front of him actually claimed that she came from...another world? Not the earth, not an alien planet, not an alien galaxy, but another universe! She claims that she is from an empire that rules the multiverse, and works in a unit called the Space-Time Administration, which is responsible for managing the order of the universe. Now this woman who calls herself a god says that she needs to find an agent to deal with an acre of land on the earth. Three minutes of trifles, so she approached Hao Ren... The whole thing was like this from the beginning to the end, there was nothing difficult to understand in terms of language, it just challenged the three views.

Hao Ren peeked at Raven 12345. The latter was obviously aware of it, but he didn't express anything about it. So taking advantage of this opportunity, Hao Ren began to compare the silver-haired woman in front of him with the image of a god in his impression, such as adding wings on her back or adding a halo behind her head... but it took a while He just gave up, knowing that it was just a waste of time: from the moment he met the werewolf who was afraid of cats, he should have thrown all the legends on Earth down the drain.

"Are there really other universes?" Hao Ren looked at Raven 12345 anxiously, "I've read about parallel universes in books, isn't it the theory?"

"It's much more complicated than that. The real macroworld structure is much more complicated than humans imagined," Raven 12345 curled his lips, as if he didn't bother to explain the problem, "You can't get in touch with other worlds for the time being, that's the comment After regular work or special tasks. The most important thing for you now is to take care of the one-acre three-point land at hand... "

"Why me?" Hao Ren couldn't help interrupting the other party. He felt that he had to gain some initiative, even if he couldn't beat the other party, he still had to try to speak tougher, "You didn't ask for my permission, did you?" "Oh yes, I forgot about this." Raven 12345 slapped his forehead immediately, which made Hao Ren unable to hold back a drop of cold sweat, "Work voluntary principle, there is indeed such a voluntary principle... I always assumed that you agreed to it. So you don't want to ?”

Hao Ren was stunned. He didn't expect the other party's conditions to be quite lenient. Such a good talk was not the same as the mysterious force he assumed: He thought that if he refused to cooperate, he would be killed and silenced. However, after Raven 12345 offered this loose condition, he hesitated instead: What should he do? Really refuse? I always feel a bit of a pity... as if my novel life was about to die before it even started.

"What happens if I don't agree?"

"Your memories of the past two days will be washed away, and I will also take that werewolf away. Don't worry, it won't hurt you or that werewolf. It's just that you have nothing to do with these things that shouldn't come into contact with. Normal People have ordinary lives, and they have been exposed to extraordinary things as ordinary people, and they have died miserably throughout the ages," Raven 12345 explained calmly, "I will find other agents, anyway, there are many people on Earth, it is really impossible I can also apply for an intern as an assistant from above."...

Hao Ren felt his heart tense, and an inexplicable feeling filled the air, then he shook his head: "Then what if I agree? What exactly do you want me to do? First, I will not do anything that violates morals." Ah, I'm a good man."

The corners of Raven 12345's mouth curled up slightly: "Don't be so nervous, you are working for the protoss. In other god systems, this position is even called 'Holy Son' or 'Executor', but our system is special so we don't call it that. Forget it, what are you worried about? I won’t let you do bad things. There are two main tasks for you: First, receive some tenants, the same as you did before, except that these tenants will be special and they need help. I need a place to live and live, and I need someone to guide you—you have to receive and take care of them so that they don’t harm the human world. Second, help me with other tasks.”

Hao Ren: "..." He instinctively felt that the second thing is the key point!

"The tenant you're talking about is Lily, right?" Hao Ren tried to learn more. Although it wouldn't give him the initiative, it would at least prevent him from being tricked. "'Alien'? Can I ask the reason for doing this?" No? Just because you don't want them to destroy the human world?"

"Actually, the reason is very complicated," Raven 12345 is very patient. "Any civilization, unless it encounters some catastrophe or encounters other serious situations that require the help of the gods, otherwise they have the right to evolve naturally without interference. I know your human myths and legends, but the real gods are not the same as your legends—we create the world, manage the world, and destroy the world, but all of the above have strict rules and regulations, and no one can interfere and destroy mortals at will. Activities. We made a lot of mistakes in this area before we changed our careers as protoss, so now this is a very serious issue. The same is true for your world: human civilization should evolve naturally without external interference, yourselves It’s okay to encounter some twists and turns in the development, but if a third-party force tries to artificially distort the evolution of human beings, I have the obligation to help you stop it. As for your task... it is to clean up the 'aftermath'."

Hao Ren struggled to understand Raven 12345's words, and seemed to catch something vaguely: "What are you talking about...'third-party forces' trying to interfere with the progress of mankind?! Lily...and all the tenants I will receive in the future Is it related to this interference?"

"Don't think about it too much. It happened a long time ago. I have dealt with the biggest shock. You humans are safe now. As long as you don't die, you can live until you die," Raven 12345 looked into Hao Ren's eyes , "As for the tenants you are going to receive... It is indeed related to a certain big event, but this is still a secret to you, don't ask too much. How about it, are you willing to do this? Although it is just to help the Space-Time Administration to clean up Work or something, but to be honest, this is an enviable job in many worlds. It is more or less considered a non-staff temporary worker treatment for enterprises and institutions... "

Hao Ren: "... I dare not agree to you when you say that, okay?"

Raven 12345 looked up to the sky and laughed, not paying attention.

Hao Ren lowered his head, thinking hard about this question that might change his life.

He still can't fully believe the woman in front of him, and he can't understand what the so-called multiverse, gods, and macroworlds are. Just like Raven 12345 said, at this stage he can only assume that everything is true, and then Think about what you should do.

If he nods at this moment, he will embark on a completely different path from the past. According to Raven 12345, it is "working for God", regardless of whether what the silver-haired woman said is true or not, whether there are traps in it, and regardless of the future Whether it is a smooth road or a desperate situation, Hao Ren will face a brand new and unimaginable life. His fortunes will change, for better or for worse.

If he shakes his head at this moment, he will just lose two days of memory, forget some things that ordinary people should not touch, and then go back to be his own small landlord, or find a serious job to hang around like everyone else, looking for A wife who doesn't love each other so much but can live a lifetime, and she will be like this until she dies.

There is no need to choose.
