Chapter 1224: One Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty-One: "The Protagonist and the Villain."

Casadia's eyebrows were curved, and he seemed to be looking at Su Mingan, with his mask tilted downwards.

"Don't worry, I have no interest in jellyfish."

"But I have to warn you... In Rovatha, love is the most delicious poison."

Su Ming'an looked up in confusion, wanting to hear what Casadia had to say.

"In Rovasha, willing love and sacrifice will maximize the absorption of predators. Your so-called love may just be food in the eyes of others. Therefore, if you trust and love someone, it will make you more dangerous."

Casadia's voice was sharp, but full of meaning. He deliberately slowed down the last words, as if he was really warning Su Mingan:
"Especially...love for the world."

"This will make you extremely delicious. Both in the physical sense of eating, and in the higher sense of exploitation and harvesting."

Su Mingan's eyes moved slightly: "You want to discuss philosophy with me?"

Casadia smiled and said, "I'm happy to discuss it."

"I seem to understand that many phenomena in Luowasha are essentially reflections of our common concepts." Su Mingan expressed his analysis: "The divination tarot cards that Huibai showed me before were predictions of life on the surface, but they are actually reality. A group that has only seen insects, ants and soil in their entire lives cannot possibly divine gold and jewels, because their upper limit is this, so the next generation will be the same."

"Vegetables that are constantly eaten are harvested all their lives. Bananas that are eaten by monkeys are difficult to resist."

"As you said, people are used to looking for scapegoats in the world, whether it's to take the blame for their own mistakes or to satisfy their natural tendency to blame others. What's interesting is that although they are of the same race, they are always used to speculating on others with the greatest malice. When they see someone donating money, they say it's for fame. When they see someone going to the countryside to help the poor, they say it's for show. In this way, they unilaterally judge others as shallow, as if the more they blame others, the more sober they appear and the more they can understand the truth that others don't understand."

"This concept, reflected in Luowasha, has become a new [world rule] - the less likely someone is to blame others, and the more kind they are to others, the more likely they are to be blamed by others... and eaten."

"Refracting concepts into [world rules], and refracting unspoken rules into bloody facts. The so-called essence of Lovasa, in this way, is really like a book. You have taken on the innuendos from reality and formed your own real phenomenon."

"This law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak will be dim without a lighthouse. So, even if you say so, the feelings in my heart will not stop, even if it makes me more delicious."

Casadia squinted her eyes and listened, the starlight around her spinning faster and faster.

"It seems that you really don't want to eat me, yet you tell me these." Su Mingan said.

He remembered that the moment he saw Lu, he felt joy and trust, so his "deliciousness" increased, and Lu's spikes suddenly succumbed to instinct and attacked him.

Therefore, if you don't want to be eaten, you have to hate others. Holding on to love and trust will only put you in the most dangerous situation.

Is this... a kind reminder from Casadia?
“Haha, ah ha ha… you just believe me like that?” Casadia made a sharp explosion sound: “How pitiful, so easy to deceive… you actually believed the words of the Devil of Fun.”

"I believe you." Su Mingan said calmly.

The crystal palace, which was glowing with fluorescent light, was silent for a short while.

Casadia seemed to be dazzled by Su Mingan's extremely focused gaze and decisive tone, and her laughter stopped for a while before continuing.

"Okay, okay. I finally got to know what you call the 'first player's strategy mode'." Casadia raised two balls of colorful liquid, as if in surrender: "Unfortunately, it's useless to me..."

"I am saying this seriously. I believe you." Su Mingan still stared at Him.

Perhaps Su Mingan's eyes were indeed well disguised, or perhaps his strategy was too familiar, the ubiquitous laughter stopped for a while. Highly saturated blood-like pigment dripped from Casadia's clown mask, and it was unclear whether it was the essence of happiness or something else.

However, Su Mingan did not trust Cassadia. But this did not affect his nonsense. No matter whether it was useful or not, he would just spread the teachings first.

……

"Ding dong!"

[NPC (Fun Devil Cassadia) Favorability: 70-5! ]

[Current Favorability Rating: Interested]

……

……and many more.

Su Mingan read it several times before he was sure that he was not mistaken.

Withhold favor?
It was the first time that the other party detracted from his favor after he finished talking...

Seeing that Casadia was about to leave, Su Mingan shouted:
"Wait, I want to ask... why did you call me Olivers at first?"

Casadia's painted body froze for a moment. He turned around, his curved red eyebrows twisted:

"I call everyone Oliver."

"Because there will always be one, and it will be him."

Su Mingan's pupils trembled. What heinous crime had Olivers committed that even a Level 2 God was looking for him?

He looked at Casadia's back. Casadia didn't move at all. Only the starlight lingering around her made him feel inexplicably lonely.

"The Turritopsis dohrnii will not die. It can breed thousands and thousands of strong people, who will support people's lives on their own countless corpses..." He left behind some meaningful words:

"And you really,"

“They are a good match.”

……

After Casadia disappeared, Su Mingan hid in the space and went to find Neptune Road.

He walked and looked at the scenery. Clusters of factories on the seafloor were emitting smoke and ash, which was siphoned to the surface by hoses and discharged to the surface - this was the revenge of the sea creatures. Surface creatures always discharged all kinds of garbage into the sea, so the sea creatures would discharge the garbage in the sea back, forming a perpetual motion machine of throwing garbage to each other.

Along the way, he heard the sea creatures chatting.

"...Those Celestial Tribes are here again? They're really haunting us. I can even see their figures on the sea from here." A pair of mantis shrimps were chatting.

"The Celestial Tribe is a sentimental race. Our king has killed several members of the Celestial Tribe. They will definitely not let this go." said another mantis shrimp.

"They want to fight for the master of the lighthouse... Hey, when will it be our turn to have a bite?"

"Shh... The king has warned before that no one is allowed to eat it."

"I just think that if I can eat the Turritopsis immortali, I would be willing to do it even if I am chased by someone..." The two mantis shrimps sighed and even began to imagine what they would do if they encountered the Turritopsis immortali.

Su Mingan passed by in secret with the space... He was not able to hide the fact that he was a jellyfish, even the sea creatures on the roadside knew about it. It seemed that this place was not suitable for long. If it was not the critical period of the resurrection of the Lin tribe, most of the higher races would be waiting around the world tree, and the seabed would have been robbed long ago, and even the Sea King would not be able to protect him.

...It's really a changing world.

In the past, he always protected his teammates. Now, it is the turn of his teammates to protect him. Moreover, he can only trust his old teammates. As for Zhao Yuan, Yi Song, Qin Si... it is hard to say whether they can resist the temptation.

He didn't dare to bet on what these people were thinking. In the past, they were able to unite as one because they knew that only the first player could save the world if he survived. But if they could upgrade their dimension and step into the vast sea of ​​stars just by eating the Turritopsis dohrnii, who would be willing to stay on Zhaixing?
All he had to do was stab Su Mingan in the back.

Too easy.

Su Mingan took a few steps and heard a discussion between a crab and a crucian carp:
"It was agreed that the [Game Day] would start at 12 a.m., but it's already noon and there's still no movement. The prediction of the Dawn Goddess turned out to be wrong."

"Who on earth came up with [Game Day]? Could it be the Supreme Lord Tosolius?"

"I heard that it was an outside civilization that was invading us. Some outside civilizations are good at invading us through games. And this is the second time [Game Day] has come... No one knows what happened in the first season. Many races that participated in the first season disappeared silently and died in the game."

"Alas... What's the point of talking about these world events? Neither you nor I have received an invitation to the game day, so we can only grind shells here. Restricted by the upper limit of races, this is how our lives will be."

"So, I really want to eat a bite of the Turritopsis dohrnii and change my fate instantly..."

Su Mingan passed them and arrived at the largest crystal hall.

Shells and gold dotted the columns and the ground, shining brightly. He walked past the layers of gauze curtains and the sea creatures standing by, and saw an emperor with long sea-blue hair leaning against a chair at the end of the hall, his blue eyes soft and peaceful. He held his chin with one hand, his eyes slightly closed, as if in deep thought.

Perhaps it was because his strength increased dramatically after eating the jellyfish, his blue eyes moved, and he vaguely sensed that someone was entering the hall.

Su Mingan removed the space concealment.

Even with a crown on his head and a fur coat on his body, the road still looks soft and without any edge or corner, without a trace of sharpness or danger.

"...You are alive?" Lu showed visible joy when he saw Su Mingan.

"Yes." Su Ming'an was not in a very relaxed mood. This kind of hydra backtracking was equivalent to limiting his death rollback, and his tolerance rate was greatly reduced.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect my spikes to be out of control." Lu hesitated for a moment, wanting to move forward, but not daring to move forward, fearing that the spikes would pierce Su Mingan again.

"You were able to pierce me easily before because I was in a very weak hydra state. Now I am in normal state, and it should be difficult for you to hurt me." Su Mingan advised: "I have to leave the sea as soon as possible. I don't know why the hydra state was triggered before. Maybe the water temperature was too low."

"Who are you going to see?" Lu asked.

"Anyway, it's a safe place. As long as we stay until twelve o'clock tonight... [Game Day] should start." Su Mingan said.

"I heard that Lu Shu is a vampire and was looking for you next to the World Tree. Su Lin also seemed to have appeared, but there is no more information." Lu said.

"I know... I will act alone first." Su Mingan said.

Lu nodded. When Su Mingan turned to leave, Lu asked in confusion:
"Aren't you going to take your friends with you?"

"Friends?" Su Ming'an was puzzled. He went into the sea alone, how could he have any friends? Hui Bai was beaten into a tofu.

Just in time.

There were footsteps outside the hall.

"Da da da."

Light, agile and quick.

Layers of gauze curtains were lifted and the footsteps were getting closer.

Su Mingan turned around and saw a touch of light and soft pink——

The slightly curly pink hair, like the flowing peach pink of spring peach blossoms, falls loosely on the girl's shoulders. A pair of purple pupils look like condensed amber. The girl wears an extremely simple white dress and does not wear any jewelry. She is as plain as a blank sheet of paper, but makes people feel the natural beauty of lotus in clear water.

...Who is this?

Su Mingan blinked. He had never seen this person before.

"Su Ming'an, don't you know her?" Lu said in confusion, "You are the one who brought her here. When you entered the sea yesterday, she followed you silently. She is someone you met in the Red Tower. She took good care of you and took you to read divination cards, ride the cat car, and see the World Tree."

A short paragraph, but contains a huge amount of information.

A guess involuntarily occupied Su Mingan's mind - could it be that Hui Bai was wearing women's clothes? Because fortune-telling cards, riding cat cars, and looking at the world tree... were all things Hui Bai did.

He quickly dismissed this outrageous guess. He was very sure that he had never seen this girl.

"Who are you?" Su Mingan asked.

The girl stared back in silence.

After ten seconds of silence, when Su Mingan thought she would not speak, she slowly opened her mouth:
"I am the original heroine of Lovasa who was squeezed out of the plot."

"My story has been taken over by a villain. I need...your help."

……

this moment,
It seemed as if ten thousand Boss Rabbits were dancing in Su Mingan’s mind.

……
