Overturned Tower

"Then why did you knock me out?"

Delphinium was a little dissatisfied: "I already feel that I have touched that wall."

At this moment, she suddenly remembered what happened before she fell asleep.

She felt her psychic power begin to swell, and the walls of the Leviathan began to dissolve.Delphinium is very sure that he can advance to the ninth level of Redshift completely and safely.

——That's a level nine redshift!

Half a level higher than her nominal uncle "Bad Day", the highest level psyker in the world at the same level as Russell!

Delphinium was annoyed and disappointed that she couldn't help Russell before.It is rare to have the opportunity to improve her psionic level nowadays, she can be said to be quite looking forward to it.

"Because you're not ready."

Russell said, turning around.

He stretched out the index finger and middle finger of his left hand, pointed to his own eyes, and pointed to the delphinium together again.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a confident smile: "I can see clearly - trust me.

"I guess, you must have thought of 'them'. And use them as a pedal to your understanding...to understand your own psychics."

"—Hey, don't look back!"

The man next to Russell said dissatisfiedly: "You can chat with your wife as much as you like, but don't look back when you talk about yours-I can't stand your big brother!"

"Okay, okay, you trashy snack..."

Russell turned around helplessly, his nimble fingers jumped quickly, and rescued the man surrounded by the character.

Delphinium walked over, endured the eye irritation from the low refresh rate screen, walked behind Russell and asked softly, "Am I understanding?"

"It's really wrong, because you overlooked one thing..."

Russell fell back lazily, arched his head back, and put his head on the delphinium's belly as usual.

Normally, delphinium would grab his ear at this time, and then touch his chin and cheek.Russell just plays his game every day, and Delphinium plays Russell every day, and each of them plays their own games without conflicting.

"...Ah, sorry."

But soon, he realized something, sat up straight again, and took his head away from the delphinium.

Then Russell coughed lightly, and replied: "Because you just understand their 'superior and correct love'.

"But you have forgotten that that kind of 'cold correctness'... is inevitably mixed with some kind of hatred. If you awaken in this posture, your psionic growth will be crooked."

"……hatred?"

"Hmm. Disappointment with degenerates. Despair for the future. Resentment for this destiny. Feeling a sense of gap between the past and the present. Since they can have the emotion of 'love', why can't they have 'hate' Woolen cloth?

"Of course they can be hated - they do have such motives.

"The indescribable enemy has nothing to do with them, but they are also imprisoned in this small cell together; human beings are so fragile and incompetent, they keep making the same mistakes over and over again, but they are being held together in this small cell." They are bound by the precepts and cannot use their own power to cross the line. Like the most stupid students, they have repeated it five or six times, fifteen or six times, but they still can’t remember. The teacher has taught that blood pressure is high, but he has to endure Continue to teach with your temper.

"Since people can lose their temper... why can't they?"

"...Are you saying that there is also an element of revenge in it?"

Delphinium seemed to understand something.

She finally understood where she had gone wrong - she saw the dragons as "perfectly gentle gods", but they were not so holy and great.

They do look after humans and protect the world.But that doesn't mean they will never be angry...Of course they will hold grudges, be disappointed, and lose their temper.

"Two equally correct futures, and one of them can make people 'suffer'. This is a kind of relief for them.

"It's like when playing a 4X strategy game, you find that there are some 'troublemakers' whose satisfaction is never improved, or their education level is not enough, or they always make all kinds of sick demands, or they just support themselves The "trend of thought" runs in the opposite direction, and they are always making trouble for themselves, which will only hinder their progress. But as a "player", they cannot directly destroy or drive away this part of the population——

"Well, if you can 'starve them by raising taxes', 'kill them by accident', or simply send them off to distant galaxies or towns and let the enemy take them, sending troops will Its destruction... and why not?

"Don't forget, they could leave from the very beginning—and compared to their former 'partners', human beings are so mediocre and incompetent.

"From this point of view, they left here to farm. Isn't it a kind of escape due to 'tired hearts'? Why did they make up their minds and refuse to become kings again? It must have been during those 1000 years I feel tired and disappointed already.

"What they hold is indeed a noble and correct love from a higher perspective... This kind of group love is indeed lethal to the individual. But this lethality does not come entirely from As for "love", it is also mixed with selfishness.

"Now, you understand why I knocked you unconscious."

"……I understand."

Delphinium nodded, reached out to press her chest, and closed her eyes to let her agitated heart sink again.

Her reason told her that Russell was right.

"Thank you."

"Why are you being polite to me..."

Russell sighed helplessly.

The man on the side had been listening quietly before.

Until this moment, he suddenly interjected in surprise: "Are you talking about...a giant dragon?"

Delphinium was startled at once, amazed that he could understand it—and also realized that Russell didn't tell him about these things even though he didn't shy away from him?

"Don't worry, Flotie. This is my old landlord, my older brother, and my friend. Not an outsider.

"By the way, the room you slept in was where my mother and I used to live...you slept in my bed."

Russell chuckled and introduced casually: "His code name is Wolf Sound. He is a very famous rock musician... Have you noticed? He is an elf."

"—In the jargon of our industry before, this profession should be called a bard."

Langyin smiled and replied casually.

Only then did Delphinium realize belatedly... that this man actually has long ears.Because he has a sports headband on his head.With shoulder-length naturally curly black hair reminiscent of an artist, delphinium didn't even notice his ears at first glance.

This was the first time delphinium had seen such a strong elf.

But at this moment, Delphinium was attracted by another thing:

"Have you and Alice...been sharing the same bed?"

Her complexion is a little strange.

Isn't there just one bed in that room?

Russell choked, coughed twice, and then quickly explained: "I lived in the school after I went to school! Didn't I tell you before!"

"right……"

Delphinium nodded slightly, thoughtfully.

She reached out and put Russell's head on her stomach, unconsciously stroking his chin.

Russell struggled slightly, but did not struggle away.The delphinium's hand has always been as strong as steel, and Russell didn't dare to use too much force for fear of hurting the delphinium.

"...Hey, won't it hurt the baby if you press it all the time?"

"Even if I have a baby, I have to take care of my big baby."

Delphinium said leisurely, with a firm attitude.

"Then tonight, let's sleep together. I passed out before, and I didn't feel anything when I fell asleep-this time I have to hold you to sleep."

What kind of vinegar are you eating...

Russell muttered in his heart, but he didn't say it out of his desire to survive.

He just whispered: "There are still outsiders here..."

"It's okay, it's not very strange."

Lang Yin asked solemnly: "How many months are younger brothers and sisters now?"

"Just a month."

Feeling the warmth of Russell's cheeks due to shyness, Delphinium chatted with Langyin openly.

"Then you have to take it easy. At least three months before and after."

"Well, we know."

"Actually, if you want to say it, it's best to take it easy in the middle four months. Of course, this is just a suggestion, brother..."

Chapter 19 High-end bureau and low-end bureau

"... Would he still do such a thing?"

"Yeah, I always think he is the most doggy."

Lang Yin replied with a smile: "Not a cat at all...that is, he runs fast, otherwise he would have been caught up and beaten."

Delphinium was obviously very curious about Russell's previous life on Sogo Island.

And Lang Yin obviously has a good attitude towards Delphinium - he is very active in chatting with Delphinium about Russell's dark history when he was a child.

Russell does not shy away from making embarrassments in front of Delphinium, but from time to time he corrects the part of "adding oil and vinegar for the sake of drama, so it seems too exaggerated".

Listening to Langyin's narration, delphinium slowly sketched out the image of Russell in his childhood.

——When Russell was in elementary school, he was far more active than he is now. He was the kind of "bear kid" in the class... and the kind of person responsible for the active atmosphere.

At that time, his mobility was extremely strong... He inherited the characteristics of Alice's spiritual relatives, and he could easily jump onto the classroom door and squat lightly on the slightly opened door since he was five or six years old.

Then when the teacher opened the door and came in, he would jump down and bite the back of the teacher's neck.

At the beginning, every teacher in the class will be taken aback by Russell, while the other students will be amused and laughing at this time.

But every time Russell can calm down the teacher's anger by pretending to be pitiful before the teacher becomes angry--he has already perfected his acting skills since the first grade of elementary school. You can also look down at people timidly, and then tears flow silently.But if necessary, even if you cry hysterically, it only takes a second to restore your calmness and smile like you won the lottery. Only the still red and swollen eye circles and hoarse throat will tell others that he just cried. .

But when he grew up a little bit later, Russell felt itchy every day, and felt that he had been beaten a little less.Every day he thinks about teasing the dog and chasing the chicken, and attracting others to chase him.

But at the same time, Russell is very sensible - he will not destroy anything of others, because he is worried that Alice will not be able to pay.At that time, Russell was thinking about how to carry out a "just right" prank.

Specifically, it is to make others angry but not too angry. If you apologize to the other party, you can forgive yourself. Russell was thinking about this kind of thing when their pranks were still at the "I'll steal your stuff" stage.

And his behavior is also outrageous——

Russell would dress up as a girl and look for young couples on the street—in fact, he didn't need to dress specifically for women, because their junior high school uniforms were unisex.And he only needs to grow some hair, and make his expression not so "cunning", and he can become a very cute kitten.

Then, he would run over and use his identity as a female junior high school student with fluttering long hair to tell the man solemnly, "Isn't this the big brother who I dated last time?" and so on to sow discord.

Because his face was too immature at the time, the woman would not be jealous, she would just let out a scream of "Huh—?!", and looked at her boyfriend with the astonishment of looking at criminals... and Russell could see through inside of others.

At this time, if the man also looks blank or shocked, Russell will quickly explain that this is a prank, and sincerely reveal his gender to excuse the man, and bless the relationship... Usually, Russell will get two people patted his head as comfort.Occasionally, there will be candies and snacks from kind-hearted brothers and sisters.

At that time, Russell rubbed other people's snacks like this.

But if the man shows a guilty or flustered expression at this moment... When Russell keenly realizes that the other party is indeed stepping on two boats, he will run away—Russell's running speed is not fast, but He is very good at jumping over walls, and can jump away from the corner next to him with just two hits.

Although the probability of such a thing happening cannot be said to be particularly high, it is basically one-fifth of it.

Yes, at least one in five couples in Sogo Island are "unfaithful".

In Sogo Island, emotional confusion is more common than in Happy Island.

Because there is really no entertainment here, people-especially young, ungraduated teenagers and girls, just have to "love" to play.In addition, Sogo Island is generally not active in childbearing, so they will not start a family at a very young age.

This is not a "clearly priced" deal like Happy Island.Because that kind of business has been completely replaced by "mechanical servants" in Sogo Island.

The most confusing thing here is true "love".

People are not longing for physical stimulation, but seeking emotional tolerance.

Because of this, the love ratio of peers in Chongguang Island will be less—except for the pure love between consensual love on campus, conflicts between men and women of the same age are more likely to arise, because no one will back down , No one is "mature enough".So in Sogo Island, there will be more couples of this type, such as young girls and older uncles, young teenagers and older wives.

Because they can find the "love" that they are missing from their relationship with each other.

But it is also because Sogo Island downplays the concept of family and marriage, so it is more prone to "disloyalty".All they are looking for is a relationship, so when their feelings cannot be reciprocated, they will start to "find another way out".At this time, they will tend to experience "couples of another age" that they have not experienced.

Tasting melon posts in various emotional fields is basically the biggest entertainment for netizens on Sogo Island.

Of course, if Russell found out from the wall that the other party had really quarreled in the street, he would obediently go down to apologize, persuade the fight, and explain that it was a prank.

"...However, it's not because Russell 'doesn't want them to fight'. He really likes to watch young couples fight, and he shares new-found melon posts with me every day, and eats them with great relish. It's just that he is trying to protect himself wisely."

"You don't understand."

Langyin glanced at Russell mockingly, and Russell just cut it in disdain and said solemnly: "I call it 'planting the seeds of doubt'.

"Couples in love have a much stronger intuition than usual. If the other party feels guilty, even if they don't see it for a while, they may not feel the difference when they think about it later. At that time, I don't know how long it has passed. Then What's the matter with Maomao, anyway, I already apologized obediently at the first time.

"I exposed a hypocritical emotion in advance. It can be said that justice has come down from heaven! In this case, I have to ensure that I am in a safe situation. What if they really tear up in the street and they become angry and regard me as the culprit? manage?"
