MTL - The Last King of Darkness-Chapter 29 bloom
Darkness breeds outside the light, shadows sway, and in some remote corners, the falling black mist can be clearly seen.
In such an environment, there is always an inexplicable sense of fear and depression.
Maybe that's why they need to tell some dirty jokes on patrol.
However, although they looked very wretched, they commented on Rhode's description, slapped and laughed from time to time, and kept teasing and mocking the green Karamon, but there was a trace of clarity in their eyes, and their tight muscles also indicated that they were vigilant, at least half focus on the surrounding environment.
"Rod, do you think that being born is considered a kind of harm?"
After talking about the crystal ball, they started talking about other topics, and they knew it like old friends.
Rhode was startled: "Isn't birth a blessing from fire?"
Raistlin laughed: "You're a bit like a bishop or a war commissar, they like to attribute everything to fire and blessings."
Iger imitated a serious tone: "May the flames purify my mind, may justice gather like moths because of your light, and the source of threats lies ahead, for the royal city, for the holy fire, warriors! The time to test you has come! "
All three laughed, but Rhodes did not laugh.
Raistlin patted Rhodes on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Let's stop doing ideological education now and just talk about our own feelings. Do you think being born is a kind of harm?"
"Isn't it?"
"I didn't have me before I was born, so I can't see anything?"
Raistlin smiled and said, "You've all ignited your souls to become fire-wielders, but what if you didn't ignite? Were you eliminated in the first round of the fire trial?"
Everyone fell silent.
Raistlin continued:
"Then don't we have to go back to the dark to live? Living in the outer city, can't afford a big magic lamp, can't afford a good phlogiston, the dim light in the house is swaying like a candle in the wind, and I worry about phlogiston every night. If you don’t have enough magic lights to go out, worry about ghosts invading your home, worry about inexplicable infections or curses, you work in factories day after day, or make some small things for sale with your craftsmanship, you can only go to the streets on hot days, but You are reluctant to buy everything in the market, and there are no girls who like you. It has been delayed until you are 30. You don’t have a wife yet. Now, there is a family of children who have lit 18 fires and become guardians, and you are still working in Xiacheng District."
"At that time, did you feel that birth was a kind of harm? Do you resent your parents for giving birth to you without your consent?"
Everyone's faces darkened as they imagined such a desperate day.
"Think about it, if it's such a miserable life, why did I have to be born? Why did I come into this world? Why do I have to live this meaningless life in fear? Why do my parents have a house in Uptown. If you don't have any, you dare to give birth to me? Others have powerful souls and high spiritual vision, I am just an incombustible waste, a stone and wood core without spiritual vision, what face do you have to give birth to me?"
Raistlin paused slightly and continued.
"Even if the fire of the soul is ignited, how good is it? When we walk out of the academy and out of the royal city, we will find that the outside world is so cruel, we will always face monsters much stronger than ourselves, and we will always worry about the black mist. Erosion and infection, medical supplies and aid will never be enough, the light of fire is only enough to illuminate your feet, look up, it is layer upon layer of endless darkness, you fight day after day, slaying countless monsters, There is no end in sight, and there is no hope. Your teammates die one by one, or mutate, or go crazy. You can't take it anymore. Your spirit gradually mutates, your soul gradually becomes numb, and one day, you will become monsters in the dark."
"How do you feel about this kind of life?"
There was a dead silence in the team, as if even breathing had disappeared.
But Raistlin remained smiling, but there was something strange in his tone.
"No, I don't think so."
"Birth is a blessing, even though the world is so dark, there is still fire light, even though I am so miserable, there is room to dream, this world is so beautiful, there are always bright flowers blooming for me, if not, I bloom for myself, celebrate my birth."
Everyone was stunned for a while, and even the pace stopped.
Suddenly, Karamon howled: "Woo woo woo, you said it so well, I have never heard such powerful words, I don't care about Donna anymore, I want a new life!"
Ai Gezan said: "Your level is much better than the general war commissar. Do you want to consider changing careers, maybe you can become a bishop."
Raistlin smiled and said, "Don't be like this, I can't stand the life of the church, I'm just talking about my feelings, you know, from the age of sixteen to nineteen, I was cleared in the first round of the Trial of Fire for three consecutive years. Twenty was the last year I was able to pass. Before that, I was lost and confused, but I finally got out."
"Maybe there is a real blessing of fire. When I accepted all this, I passed it."
Everyone applauded, and Iger whistled: "As expected of our power forward!"
Maybe this topic was not fun enough, it just ended like this, and everyone started talking about some light topics, such as the top ten beauties in Wangcheng.
However, their level is relatively inferior, and they are all big, tolerant, long-legged, and very vulgar.
Rhode couldn't listen to it anymore, so he just changed Jinling's thirteen hairpins a little and told it as a joke.
Thanks to the hard study during this period and his superb language talent, he can already use Common Tongue relatively fluently.
When it came to the climax, Rhodes carefully inserted a "next split" to deepen their bond so that he could continue to hug his thighs next time.
Caramon suddenly wailed: "Don't, tell me what happened to Audrey after she entered the palace? Will Bulgari embarrass her?"
The other two also stared at him, and Rhode hurriedly explained: "I really can't make it up anymore, my inspiration is limited, and my inspiration is limited."
After everyone let him go, Iger asked, "Then what shall we talk about? The secret that the king and his lovers must tell?"
Rhode was startled and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid of being arrested by the internal affairs ruling when you talk about this?"
All three laughed.
"How is that possible? The king himself said it is possible."
"A lover can be a man."
"Why do you have such a strange idea? Could it be that you came here from twenty years ago? The new law of Wang Zhi has been practiced for more than ten years."
Rhode hurriedly explained: "I have lost my memory, and I can't remember many things."
Everyone was very surprised: "You really lost your memory?"
Rhodes nodded and briefly explained the matter, but did not mention the specific circumstances, only that he was attacked by monsters.
This is the draft given to him by the internal affairs ruling, and he is strictly prohibited from spreading the truth.
"So, I don't know anything, I'm really a newcomer."
Raistlin pondered: "Then why are you assigned to us?"
Iger guessed: "Maybe it's complementary. The three of us are very low in spiritual vision, and we just need a scout. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
"Makes sense!"
Rhode just didn't want to talk about those vulgar jokes anymore, and said quickly: "You can tell me about the tactical position and what I should do, so that I won't be dragged back for a while."
This suggestion has been unanimously agreed by the three of them. It is also part of human nature to be a teacher.
Raistlin said: "The tactical position is the way of maximizing the combat effectiveness of personnel in a specific combat mode. It is generally divided into front, middle and rear positions. In our squad, I am the front and main defense, and my duty is to be in the most. Withstand the impact of the monster ahead."
"Iger is the central control position. His white smoke can lock monsters, restrict their movements, assist us in attacking or protect us from retreating. This position is a test of IQ, but unfortunately he doesn't."
Iger jumped up and slapped Raistlin on the knee: "You fart! When did I not save you?"
Raistlin ignored him and continued: "Karamon is a back-up supporter. His main role is to heal us, adjust and replenish our psionic energy. He is very fragile and needs our protection the most."
Karamon said angrily, "Where am I brittle?"
"And you, Rhodes, the post scout, your duty is to observe the audience, provide information on monsters, provide early warnings, and protect us from monster raids."
Raistlin turned around abruptly, the shield on his back appeared in his left hand in an instant, and he swept out with a lightning strike, smashing a big dog that seemed to be made of shadows to pieces.
"like this."
Iger and Caramon changed in an instant, the wretchedness dissipated from them, and silence, solemnity, and concentration emerged from their temperament.
The former took out a large golden trumpet from his bosom, and the latter took off the long whip wrapped around his waist.
"Looks like we've got work to do."
