Chapter 375 Chapter 370 "Does this have to be the case?"

Su Mingan turned his head and looked at Sherwood who clenched his fists.

"I think, please at least keep my sister, before the sea monsters make trouble." Shelude sincerely begged.

"The sea-monster is making trouble?" Su Mingan heard the word: "The princess is still alive, how could the sea-monster be making trouble?"

"Have you ever heard of the 'principle of reciprocity'?" Sherrod said.

"I've heard of it." Su Mingan said, "So, now even the soul in the princess' body can't suppress the surrounding sea monsters?"

"Just to be on the safe side." Sheldore said: "If they take advantage of the feast at sea, it will be a disaster. Not to mention, there are still outsiders making trouble at the pier in the South District, occupying the lives of our innocent people. ship... my sister was among them..."

His tone became more and more urgent, as if he wanted to leave now to save people.

But he knew he couldn't.

As the guard knight of the royal city, it is his responsibility to place before family affection.Unless Su Mingan asked him to rescue him, he couldn't leave.

It is difficult for Su Mingan to understand this kind of chivalry. In his opinion, relatives must be rescued as soon as possible if they are in trouble. As long as Wangcheng is not in danger, it is feasible to kill first and play later. Blindly following the rules is just pedantic behavior.

But the young man in front of him seemed to think so.

Su Mingan also knew that Xie Lude must be an important figure in the dungeon.

He is the most bright and friendly knight in recent years according to the princess, and he may become the existence of the so-called "brave".

In the flip book of the Central University Library, Su Mingan has already learned the meaning of brave in Praia, which means "warrior who rescues the predicament".

As long as the brave is there, Praia can overcome difficulties again and again.

In the previous history, Praia also encountered difficulties that were difficult to resist, such as the invasion of foreign enemies, the tsunami, etc. It was the appearance of the so-called "brave" that made these disasters quelled.

It is like a spiritual symbol, like a guiding light. It seems that as long as the brave man is still alive, the difficulties he has encountered recently will definitely be resolved.

At first, Su Mingan thought that he should be a "brave man", but now it seems that this guess is wrong.

After understanding the specific meaning of the brave, it is true that the Sherwood in front of him is more similar.

Then, Sherwood must be alive to prevent unexpected situations in the checkpoint due to the death of this person.

"Shelude." Su Ming'an slowed down his tone, "I know you really want to save the Pope, but I don't want to lock him up all the time. After the feast at sea is over and I leave Praia, you will restore normal order."

"..." Sheld was silent for a moment.

"Does this have to be the case?" He said, "Captain."

He called the captain.

"It must be like this." Su Mingan said.

Sheld was silent again.

He was in the most awkward position.

On one side is chivalry, on the other side is his beloved Grandma Gard and his sister.

All he could choose was to abandon all his previous beliefs and protect Praia with Su Lin, a "rogue" who rebelled against the gods.

Or, he chooses to stick to his spirit until he watches the death of the person he loves.

"Are you going with me? Save the people at the pier in the South District...and your sister." Su Mingan said.

He is persecuting.

If Sherwood chooses to agree, he will be completely in his camp.

The Knights of Light fight for the new king, which is a deeply orthodox affair.Those ministers who lingered at the soul hunting headquarters will also change their minds.

Sherrod sighed.

His hand stretched out slowly, with two necklaces on it.

"Please help me give this necklace to my sister. Tomorrow...is her birthday." Sheldore said, "If she...is still alive."

Su Mingan took a look. The necklace was a kind of pendant with a photo inside, and there was a picture of Sister Xie Lude inside.

Obviously, the other party refused.

"In return, another one is for you." Sheldore said, "Thank you... Your Majesty."

……

[Obtain B-level temporary mission: Immortality]

[Mission Description: Give the necklace in Sheld's hand to his sister. 】

[Task Reward: Immortal Pendant (Red Level)*1]

……

It was actually a piece of red-level equipment.

Su Ming'an took over the task, but he couldn't see the attributes of the necklace yet.

"Happy birthday to you in advance." Su Mingan took the necklace.

Sheldore showed an extremely forced smile.

"I really didn't expect... the captain who once violated the Playa rules with me and ate barbecue with me would be the hero who saved the world 60 years ago." Sheld said, "But, captain, I still hope that you just team leader."

"Some things can't be solved with 'hope'." Su Mingan said, "If possible, I also hope that you are not such a bright knight who abides by the rules."

"Can I persuade you to change your mind? Now." Sherwood stared at him: "Don't go against the will of the gods, don't occupy the throne of Praia, and let the struggle between the two races continue, this should not be something we can control... ...If I persuade you like this—Captain, are you willing to go to the streets of the East District with me again and have a barbecue?"

"..." Su Mingan was silent for a moment.

"I know, I heard the princess say that you are 'players'." Sheld said, "I don't know what it means, I only know that you can travel around the world and shuttle in the stories. Time traveler. That sounds enviable.

I also know that you have to complete some tasks, for example, to win the feast at sea, or to join a certain organization, or to hunt down a certain soul clan...

The princess said, you only regard us as mechanical gears, swords or guns that can be used, and you do not regard us as independent creatures...

In fact, this is also the case with Laken (played by Noel). Even though he and I have a good chat, I can see in his eyes that they are not treating an equal life.

...But Captain, you seem to be different. You saved Grandma Gard and me, and when you talked to me, you also respected my ideals—it seems that I have become a soul that can communicate on an equal footing in your eyes . "

Su Mingan: "Because I always respect those who can think independently and have firm ideals."

"...So I'm a 'human'." Sherwood suddenly laughed.

The sun shines into his eyes, and he smiles very innocently.

"... I grew up in Praia and I saw a lot of things. A lot of people are born without being a 'person' and they don't see themselves as people.

"A symbol, a name, a mark engraved on the stone tablet. This is how the sacrificed soul hunters understand themselves, like firewood and firewood. From the moment they fired the first shot, they regarded themselves as this A brick of a piece of land.

"Captain, I envy you all.

"You don't need to bear the deep-rooted hatred, you don't need to implement the ideals of generations, you don't need to passively fight for the origin of history, and then die on the battlefield that is regarded as your home.

"—because you are free.

"You can choose to accept the tasks you want, you can freely choose to contact the people you want to contact, you have power, you have the power to shuttle, you can reject those burdens that make you uncomfortable.

"...But I can't.

"Even if I know that my world may have been invaded, my thoughts may only be composed of purely mechanical elements, and everything I say and do is just a step-by-step thing written on paper. Even , the mission I undertake and the chivalry I carry out are all things that exist for the so-called 'setting'.

"...I never even had a life that was only my own, and it was just to welcome you from the beginning to the end.

"In the end, I should be regarded as a character in the story, as an epitome of the image of the 'Knight of Light' on this land, and as a 'victim' in the spirit of mission.

"...or do you see me as a free soul, someone who can communicate with you independently?
"The difference confuses me.

"Even now, I don't know whether the reason for me to say this is the so-called 'personal design' and 'system', or I have a brain that can organize these nonsense.

"Mission, spirit, light affinity and talent, these are all innate.

"I'm like a living being made up of everything I was born with. People say it's destiny."

His hands are on his chest.

"...And to this day, I am still troubled by the emotions stirring up in my heart and the chivalry spirit I abide by."

"However, no matter who has a mission, anyone will have it." Su Mingan said, "You and us."

"Free souls, will you also have a mission?"

"Yes." Su Mingan said, "Because you are also a free soul."

Sherrod laughed.

"Captain." He said, "Can't we really turn back?"

"..." Su Mingan said, "I will deliver your sister's gift."

The smile on Sherrod's mouth dropped.

He turned away.

He finally chose to go back and guard the princess he had sworn allegiance to.

Perhaps he and Su Ming'an once saved Gard, but before the knight's oath, he still couldn't get over this hurdle.

Maybe by nature.

Maybe it's a setting.

……

This is exactly the reason why Su Mingan persisted.

— because he was afraid,
If Zhai Xing is not successfully redeemed in the end, and human beings are rescued from this hopeless game,

If the ultimate wish is not fulfilled, if no one reaches the goal in the end,

Then,

...Will all of them, including those who haven't even participated in the game, the remaining humans, become a second "Sheroude"?
And what he is experiencing now, these worlds that have turned into duplicate worlds, were they also...

……

"Are you done?"

Lively voices came from behind, and behind him, Naluo, who was slightly staggering, came over.

The wrinkles on her face had completely disappeared, her face was still flamboyant and gorgeous, with a beauty like a red rose.

She stopped and walked, her face turned pale.

Behind her was a fiery red spear, no matter how bad her marksmanship was, she had no intention of giving up the spear.

"What's wrong with your leg?" Su Mingan asked after watching her steps.

"Well, ah." Naluo looked up at the sky: "In short, it's not easy to walk, I'm tired."

"Go back to sleep when you're tired." Su Mingan started walking.

At the South Wharf, there are still a group of guys who have brought out the worst of human nature to the extreme, waiting for him to deal with them.

He noticed that there was already a lot of noise in the channel chat. Many players who were arrested begged for help, and many "just men" said they would go to the South District to rescue them.

He also saw a message, it was a player he had seen, who was once a member of his soul hunting team.

It's just that he never paid attention to these players again.

【Ye Changtian (Jianmen): Wash your neck and wait, criminals, you all have to die. 】

Su Mingan did not expect that many people would agree with Ye Changtian, saying that they would carry out just sanctions.

However, obviously, according to the real-time broadcast of the channel chat, this group of people didn't even rush in, let alone save people.

More people are still obsessed with taking points and grabbing points. Only passionate players will go to dangerous places like the Southern District to save people.

"I said, are you in a bad mood?" Naraku suddenly poked his head.

"Aren't you tired?"

"Adventure is also a part of relaxing the spirit." She said naturally: "What are you going to do, take Miss Ben. Since you have restored Miss Ben to her youthful beauty, I can give you a chance."

Although her words were arrogant, they were playful and playful, not too much, as if she just wanted to enliven the atmosphere.

"Go back to sleep by yourself." Su Mingan ignored her and left.

He glanced at the necklace in his hand.

In the interlayer of the necklace is a photo of Sherrod's sister.

She also has blond hair, and since she is a twin, her appearance looks similar to Sherrod's, only gentler and softer.

He remembered the girl's appearance and walked quickly towards the pier in the South District.

……

【Soul Hunting Headquarters · In the meeting room】

In the quiet conference room, a few soulhunters in uniforms sat sparsely.

Because Ying, the leader of the soul hunters, let the soul hunters participate in the feast at sea, these ministers also stayed in Praia.

Among them, the Minister of the Southern District, Karocha, had a gloomy face at this time.

"It's rare for the princess to do something stupid." He said: "A stranger who has just arrived in Praia for three days became the leader, and let us fully obey his orders..."
