Without hesitation, Jiang Lin nodded in agreement with a confident expression.
"So, the first question: Would you use the power of the sun to bully the weak and act recklessly?"
"No, it's just one piece of the puzzle for my ultimate ideal."
"Second question: Would you use the power of the sun for personal gain to clear the way for your fellow passengers on the train?"
"Okay, then, the third... um?"
The priest was somewhat stunned, but Jiang Lin remained calm.
"Is there a problem? If they ultimately can't escape the dream of Taiyi, I'll take them away in my own way, without disturbing your beautiful dream. That's one of our agreements, isn't it?"
Sunday sighed, then continued to inquire:
"Alright, then, the third question: Are you willing to abandon your companions for the sake of the sun's authority?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin's confidence froze, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked in a somewhat low voice.
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"I know, but that's exactly what I want to ask: are you willing to let them sink into eternal despair in their dreams for the sake of the sun's authority, or to stand by and watch them die?"
"Ha ha……"
Jiang Lin suddenly laughed, looking at the shrine, his tone flat and cold:
"I hope you understand one thing: I am fully capable of shooting down this sun."
“I understand, but… if you do that, I’m confident you’ll end up with nothing.”
"Are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat; I'm just stating a fact."
What makes you think you can do it?
"You can try."
A long silence followed, but it was eventually God’s Sunday that broke the silence.
"Please make your choice, Mr. Jiang Lin."
Jiang Lin chuckled: "Hehehahaha..."
On Sunday, he frowned and asked with some doubt:
"What's so funny about this?"
Jiang Lin stopped laughing, his voice becoming somewhat low:
"They were the first companions I made in this universe, and they are now my close friends. Their concern for me was genuine..."
So your choice is...
But Jiang Lin spoke again:
"But friends, friendship? They are indeed very rare, but they are definitely not everything in my life. If I had to make a choice, I can only say sorry to them."
"why?"
Sunday is incomprehensible at this time.
If we put ourselves in Jiang Lin's shoes, and he had to choose between his sister and the power of the sun, he would definitely choose the former without hesitation.
Hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to my adorable little sister.
"Why? Because this is my ideal. I have already sacrificed so much for this ideal, and I don't want to end up with a result that is just a little short."
Sunday fell silent again, but Sunday's silence only fueled Jiang Lin's anger.
“Give it to me…or I will destroy what you call paradise. Remember, this is a threat, not a statement.”
On Sunday, he sighed, feeling somewhat helpless yet very determined.
"I'm sorry, I cannot entrust the foundation of the park to you. With the park in your hands, I see no future for it."
These words acted as a fuse, and both of them knew perfectly well that a fight was inevitable.
Sunday dared not underestimate Jiang Lin in the slightest. After all, he had seen the longbow in Jiang Lin's hand during the first negotiation, and he had assumed that the other party's strength was as high as possible.
Jiang Lin also dared not underestimate Shen Zhu Ri. Even with the addition of that light cone, his strength should be above Shen Zhu Ri's. However, he still understood the principle that even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.
Two seconds later, the two of them made their moves in perfect unison.
But the first thing the priest said was:
In the beginning was the One!
(Three chapters today, a bit slow, sorry. The last chapter took a long time to post, so frustrating ╯﹏╰)
(*￣3￣)╭?
Chapter 70 Awakening
Seeing this, Jiang Lin did not hesitate at all and directly abandoned this body.
A moment later, Sunday frowned slightly because he felt no resistance.
Just as he was preparing to investigate carefully, a beam of light descended from the sky...
In Taiyi's Dream
After Star and everyone else defeated the Sun God, they were on the eve of their leap to their next destination.
Xing went to the window of the observation car and found the black swan.
"Oh? You've arrived. Your reflection is cast among the stars in the porthole, haha, it's a little hard to see clearly."
The black swan turned around, looked at the stars before it, and smiled slightly:
"So, how was your dream trip? Were you satisfied?"
Xing scratched his head and thought for a moment, then hesitated and said:
"It's alright, but I feel like some things haven't been explained clearly yet."
"The sense of curiosity is so strong... This kind of memory is irresistible."
The black swan seemed somewhat intoxicated, and appeared even more affectionate towards the stars.
"Then give me back that little parting gift. I can't wait to receive it."
Xing didn't hesitate and handed her the compass of the memory domain (a blank light cone).
"Hmm...oh?"
The black swan seemed to have discovered something and fell into deep thought.
"what happens?"
The black swan smiled slightly and said meaningfully:
"It's nothing, I just found a very interesting place in your memory."
Before I explain the reason to you, I want to apologize.
Actually, the parting gift I gave you wasn't the Compass of Memory Realm. It was just an empty light cone.
Black Swan then recalled:
"Do you remember when we first entered the Dream Hotel, I asked your companions for a few trinkets? They all served similar functions."
This way, I can sense you at any time and intervene immediately if you encounter danger.
Xing thought for a moment, then answered seriously:
“You didn’t ask Jiang Lin for anything, nor did you give Jiang Lin anything.”
The black swan's smile froze instantly, and she said with a hint of helplessness:
Is it possible that he doesn't need it at all?
"Fine, I'll just say it directly. The light cone is used to encapsulate and solidify slices of light. This empty light cone is the same. It can record your memories in their most vivid form, and then I can appreciate and play with them to create unique memories."
But Xing shook her head blankly, "I don't understand..."
The black swan sighed, somewhat helplessly saying:
"Fine, I'll just tell you directly: in this grand and extravagant dream of the family, you were the only one who experienced the whole thing."
"What does that mean? What does this signify?"
Xing felt a ticklish sensation in her heart, as if Eriol had scratched it.
Can the Riddler please get off the Star Train?!
"Don't be impatient, I will reveal the answer, but now is not the time."
Black Swan didn't continue speaking; instead, she turned to look at the other people on the train.
“Look back at your friends; they are all excited about their next destination. They are full of anticipation for their present and future. Wouldn't it be a spoilsport to reveal everything now?”
After a moment's thought, the black swan spoke to the star again:
"I want to pick a good time, a time when you are completely relaxed. Perhaps the most suitable time is when the night is getting dark and you are about to fall asleep."
How about we choose an evening? I'll prepare candlelight, fragrance, and a comfortable couch to create a cozy dreamland for you.
Then I told you the answer as a little bedtime story to lull you to sleep.
Just then, Pam's voice came over the loudspeaker.
"Hello—hello—attendees, please note—the train is about to undergo a jump, the train is about to undergo a jump—please sit tight and hold on!"
In reality at this time,
On Sunday, God and Jiang Lin were engaged in a friendly and passionate exchange.
Although Jiang Lin paid the price of his body, he managed to withstand a blast of Primordial Power.
But he also took this opportunity to widen the distance between the two sides. After restarting a body on the other side of the Asdna system, Jiang Lin did not hesitate to send a large number of rockets to God Sunday.
Although Jiang Lin didn't use too much power each time, the sheer number of arrows, their speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness were overwhelming. The light arrows seemed to be free, densely packed like a storm.
After a brief and difficult standoff on Sunday, they simply gave up.
