It's so painful! So hard! So difficult!

The outer armor she grabbed was a bit too high for the opponent's height. Such thick armor didn't mean much for attacking Bai Lin. It was almost as if it had been deliberately left with space for her to grab. Katie, would she do such a superfluous thing?

The answer is obvious.

The next moment, Bai Lin's armor shattered completely. Katie, left alone, stepped forward from below, stabbing the remaining fragments of armor directly into Bai Lin's abdomen. A spurt of blood instantly dyed her arm red. The stab was so deep that Bai Lin lost all resistance.

But Katie's actions didn't stop. The living armor, with its sharp blades, split and reassembled directly within Bai Lin's body, forming the shape of sharp claws. Katie directly grasped the opponent's abdominal organs, and then with a casual tightening of her grip, she pulled long, bloody pieces of large intestine and various pieces of flesh and blood from Bai Lin's body.

In an instant, Bai Lin's center of gravity was completely lost under the intense pain. She fell powerlessly into Katie's arms, being embraced in such a cruel way.

"So even though I don't really want to do this, I'd rather kill you than lose you completely."

The unfinished sentence was completed. In the scarlet breath, Katie was still smiling. She hugged Bai Lin warmly. The warm embrace made Bai Lin question whether he was the same person who killed him.

Chapter 1067 The facts will tell everything

However, it turned out that this was Katie. Bai Lin gave her a cruel choice, and she also gave an answer with this cruel method.

Bai Lin, who fell on Katie, experienced all of this clearly in his dying moments.

It hurts... I've been hurt so badly. Even if I die many times, I can't say I've completely adapted.

But maybe it feels good.

It’s great to be loved by someone.

It was the first time she truly felt what it meant to kill someone out of love. She had never expected that this ridiculous statement would actually be recognized by her when she actually encountered it.

Compared to this, Katie seemed to have initially predicted that she would still move. And even with armor, she would only restrain him, not kill him. Not to mention that she could only move one arm, even if she were to capture him with her entire body, she would still choose the Golden Toad Shelling Technique. She used thick outer armor precisely for this reason.

Otherwise, with her reaction speed, she would never be able to keep up with me. This must be a pre-programmed spell.

Even taking the unexpected into consideration, I really was completely defeated.

Thinking of this, Bai Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly. Even though he could no longer see the other person's face as he fell into the other person's arms, that smile was something he would never forget.

That genuine love was truly heavy. And yet, I loved not only her, but also the entire world...

What have I done to deserve her love?

Katie has always said that she was "a bit of a cheater", but now it seems that she is the more shameless one.

There's no other way. Even though I know this, I won't let go. I love you, too. Let me carry this guilt with me, and love you even more.

Bai Lin lost his last chance of survival.

-

The familiar hotel, the familiar people, now seemed a little strange. Bai Lin and Katie sat opposite each other. The former, who was usually arrogant, now lowered his head slightly and remained silent. The latter folded her hands and asked with concern,

"Does it still hurt?"

“…Maybe a little.”

Bai Lin responded honestly, but in fact, she didn't mind Katie killing her. After all, this was her own request. Katie Pello also noticed this. Now Bai Lin seemed a little cold, but the reason was completely different. She had no opinion of him at all.

Her depression was simply due to her past experiences. How could my love alone completely heal her pain?

Here, you just need to do your part.

"Well, if that's all right, let's get down to business."

Katie said this, and Bai Lin instantly raised her head. She had promised the poets and knights that after a day of drinking, she should cheer up. But for her, once she was in the mood, her emotions were no longer important.

The two sorted out and exchanged some information:

First, Kong's disappearance caused some trouble. For example, the restoration, transportation, and research of the "technology" and "civilization" Bai Lin had acquired from the Periya tribe had been handled by Kong as an intermediary between the government and the government. But now only "Little Kong" (?) was left, creating a certain disconnect.

Currently, Yamashita Kanon is acting as the agent. Although she was once the Prime Minister and possesses both skill and strength, she cannot possibly possess the same deep connections as Sora himself. Furthermore, her actions are significantly restricted due to the fact that she cannot reveal her identity.

Therefore, Bai Lin's findings from this trip, such as the dwarven weapons research and the princess's magic library, needed to be carefully handled. Because of this, Bai Lin had to meet with Yamashita Kanon. Xiao Xiaokong was currently paying her salary, but the workload Bai Lin had assigned her was quite overwhelming, and it would be unreasonable not to go and ask for her help and give her some advice.

Besides this, she also had to be entrusted with the erection of monuments, sacrifices, and various other tasks. Given the former Prime Minister's personality, he would surely bite his fingers and handle everything with a look of resentment.

Afterwards, in addition to Kong's disappearance, there have been too many suspicious facts in recent times, such as Ajun's disappearance.

"I need to remind you, Bai Lin. Although there are many different opinions about the image of God, the God I saw is definitely not the Ah Jun you imagine. Moreover, the nuns still claim that they can communicate with God."

Katie sternly reminded Bai Lin. Bai Lin shook his head.

"But she wasn't pretending, I can tell. And if you think about it, it wouldn't do any good to suddenly disappear in the middle of pretending. But I already have some guesses about this. She probably really did have some trouble, so she didn't come to see me."

"Should we look for her first?"

"No, as someone she summoned and also her boyfriend, there's no one in this world who has a closer relationship with her. Even if she encounters something, she can at least ask me for help. The fact that she won't see me can only mean that she's avoiding me."

"Your girlfriend is avoiding you, aren't you worried? Look at me, I knew you were avoiding me, and I got anxious the first time. Forcibly avoiding someone is a huge emotional crisis."

Katie joked, and Bai Lin replied firmly,

"That's true, but if it were her, if she really was in a relationship crisis, she would definitely put this matter in front of me and explain it to me. So, just wait."

"Why can't you be so straightforward?"

"Stop making fun of me and move on."

Bai Lin smiled bitterly and said so.

Next, it is about the strange things Bai Lin saw during his journey.

It's really hard to choose a single, most striking point from this jumble of content. So, I'll just describe it in chronological order.

The earliest non-standard existence should be "Saint Qili". As far as Bai Lin knew, the other party had very similar powers and even appearance to himself. Moreover, he was created by another poet wearing a white robe, who was tentatively called the Poet of Light.

That person looked crazy, like a fanatic. Furthermore, Latia, the Dark Poet, had no idea of ​​him when she used her astrological abilities. She could only infer his existence from Bai Lin's other memories, leaving her true identity completely in doubt.

So, could his identity be related to the Dark Bard? After all, they both call themselves bards.

At this point, Bai Lin shook his head. Although the two had similar names, just like himself and Saint Qili, they looked similar, but at their core, they were completely different things.

Chapter 1068: Clues Fault

In this way, the clues are completely broken and we can only make rigid inferences.

After Saint Qili's creation, he'd been talking about judgment and theology, while he himself was also called the Son of God, a title with a metaphysical connotation. In comparison, Saint Qili possessed a higher concentration of theology, making him more suitable for these two terms. Considering this, it's unclear what religion the Poet of Light was connected to.

What if he was also a powerful Twilight God? The possibility seemed very high.

Thus, the next mystery, the Twilight God, was introduced. The nature of the Twilight Gods was now clear: a group of largely powerful refugees. Each had their own identity, position, and purpose. The records they left behind could not be leaked, and information would be distorted. This meant that even if they existed somewhere, they would be completely unrecognizable, which gave rise to endless possibilities.

Fortunately, the Dark Poet left me all the information she knew before she died. In some areas, she specifically marked the possible existence of the Dusk God, so it can be said that I have not lost all the information.

As for the soul-carrying carriages that Bai Lin saw, Katie deduced that it might be because Bai Lin's divinity was gradually becoming too high, coupled with his contact with the God of Wilderness.

"By the way, since I've actually died once, I have some say in this matter. This world is full of mysteries, and of course there are many beings who are given the name of gods. And if the god you believe in doesn't define the soul after death, or if you don't believe in gods at all, then after you die, your soul will be scattered throughout the world."

Katie said this, and it was precisely because of this that Chris said she might not be able to save Katie in time. Generally speaking, at the moment of death, the soul is processed and it is time to disperse and go on a journey.

Katie was the most obsessed. She had no faith, yet she hadn't let go of her obsession even after so long. If she hadn't been saved, she might have become Bai Lin's spirit.

However, the poet's situation wasn't so simple. While it looked like they were transported somewhere intact, those knights were already rejected by the fate of this world, and if they had forced themselves to survive until this day, their souls would surely be shattered.

As for the poet, his soul had long since merged with the old poet, and his nature had already shifted towards that of a Dusk God, no longer belonging to his own race. What exactly would happen to him was unknown, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to be resurrected.

However, the purpose of mentioning these topics is not to analyze the possibility of resurrecting others, but to point out that Bai Lin's divinity is improving, which is equivalent to the gradual improvement of his "clairvoyance", so...

"Can you think of anything about that last person?"

Katie asked. The mysterious figure and the special feeling instantly reminded Bai Lin of the glimpse she had before she fainted. She raised her head and met Katie's eyes.

"It seems like I've seen it before, but I have no idea what it is. Well, I think I thought of a possibility."

Bai Lin thought quickly and said the following:

I was summoned by Ajun from another world. According to the original "messenger", my original self was dead, so now I have a brand new body.

A poet once said he was a hero who could save the world. Clearly hailing from another world, the Dusk Gods were spurned by the world. There was something profoundly strange about this. If Bai Lin was forced to identify a difference between him and the Dusk Gods, all he could think of was that his own world hadn't yet been destroyed.

The key point is the changes she's experienced since arriving in this world. Endowed with a stronger body, she has gained many more abilities, and she's one of the few people who can still clearly remember Twilight. Even after they've parted ways, people tend to forget, but Bai Lin doesn't feel that way at all.

"Then, maybe I have seen this Twilight God before in my original world, but I was not in the same body as I am now, so I can't remember it..."

Bai Lin's reasoning was very simple. She had naturally brought up the condition of her time travel to talk to Katie. But Katie shook her head.

"Your words did trigger some of my thinking, but the conclusion is probably wrong."

First of all, Bai Lin's physical nature is completely different from others, that's for sure, she's no longer a normal person. It's true that she won't forget Mu Shen because of this, but it's not as simple as "getting a physical body" and she can't forget.

Regarding the cognition of the Twilight Gods, there is actually a layer of "cognitive shackles".

"Do you still remember what happened with the dwarves, Bai Lin?"

"...Which part are you referring to?"

Katie didn't seem to expect the other party to answer, but just knew that the other party still remembered her, so she continued,

"That gun girl, Shancha, mentioned spiritual shackles, and said they existed in this world. Before the Twilight God met the dwarves, they had already broken the shackles and were even in danger. So, the shackles don't just exist in the word Twilight God."

That’s right, the dwarves learned some truths at that time, which made it impossible for them to have their memories and wills distorted by the “shackles” and fell into a “crisis” of what they might face.

In other words, extremely strong shocks and emotions will break the shackles because consciousness can no longer be easily blurred.

"This is also one of the effects of the poet's death... Bai Lin. Her status over there is very high. Such a death will at least break the shackles of some important figures. But as for what they will think, it's hard to say."

Katie touched her chin and tilted her face.

"But they are decisively different from the dwarves, otherwise the dwarves wouldn't have been in such a crisis. Simply put, it's a matter of degree. For example, you and I already know a lot about the Goddess of Dusk, and it seems we haven't suffered any punishment. So the shackles the poet broke through his own death probably didn't go that deep."

"As for the exact extent of their knowledge, I can't say for sure. What I'm saying is simply a general principle. For something to be unforgettable, something powerful must have happened. Furthermore, I think it must have existed in this world. Otherwise, we can't say those races didn't have a deep bond with the Dusk Gods."

So, although every trip was exciting and full of emotions, the impact was not always there. And the Twilight Gods were also creatures of the outside world. Even if their death or tragedy was heavy, theoretically, it could not break the shackles and make Bai Lin remember them.

I'm posting two updates today mainly because the author has lost his memory and forgot whether to post an update or not. He has been suffering from severe memory loss recently, so please just take a look at it casually.

Chapter 1069 Title

So, what was the reason? Was it because Bai Lin was also an outsider?

"There's never a single reason for something. Just like why I like you, Bai Lin, it's definitely not just because you're pretty or straightforward. Maybe I can summarize it with one word, but everything in the world is complex, just like emotions."

Katie said so, chuckled and took Bai Lin's hand.

"Has it been a while since I've looked at your system panel? Take a closer look."

"Actually, I have some impression of what you are going to say."

Bai Lin obediently opened it, but didn't look at it carefully. Instead, she continued to stare at the other party, because she always had to look at this thing every day when she switched weapons, changed clothes, or took things, and it was impossible for her not to notice its changes.

Indeed, Bai Lin's title column had a lot of random names added to it. Among them were "Dream Builder," which she thought the lizardmen called her. And "Messenger of the Desolation," which clearly had something to do with the Desolate God. "Unparalleled in the World" was, of course, earned by defeating the original Unparalleled in the World...

Furthermore, similar titles have existed for a long time. Rumors within Camitran also circulate about them, including the two titles from the underground boxing ring.

"During your journey, you not only carry the stories of others, but also write your own story. The image you have in the eyes of others also provides you with various kinds of support."

Indeed, some simply add panels, some make the text illegible, and some have many inexplicable effects that appear to have no effect at all, and some even look like side effects... But the support does exist, that's certain. Especially those that add panels based on percentages, if you carefully calculate the multiplication area, you will get outrageous results.

In addition, Bai Lin himself has a very intuitive panel improvement brought about by the level increase, which is really intuitive on paper.

Bai Lin's panel will become more and more outrageous, and a large part of it comes from this.

As for what this had to do with the Twilight Gods, Bai Lin suddenly understood.

She learned about the stories of the Twilight Gods, and after listening to them, she naturally accepted them, and they became a part of her "body" unconsciously.

"Speaking of which, I have to bring up an interesting theory. When the Dusk Gods' original world is destroyed, the remaining will and destiny of that world will be concentrated in this one person. So perhaps that person will be powerful enough, even if their will and existence are weakened and rejected by other worlds, it will still be the same."

"And you, Bai Lin. When the Dusk Gods left, you listened to these stories and accepted more than just one person's story. You became like the collective will of the world. It's only natural that you wouldn't forget the relevant parts, right?"

Of course, this is just a guess. If that were the case, then Bai Lin's rapidly improving strength might not seem impressive enough.

So, it's not a problem to say that Bai Lin can only remember after possessing this body, and even if she had seen it before and couldn't remember it, that's fine. How could a normal human be so idealistic that other people's stories and impressions of them could become a force of idealism? But strictly speaking, she can only remember because she carries the other person's story within her, not just because of her physical body.

In this way, if you haven't had any prior experience with the Dusk God, even if you've seen him, you might not remember him. Just like unrelated passersby, everyone encounters a lot of people every day, so it's normal not to remember them. The feeling of familiarity with that strange being at the end might be due to having seen him at some other time in this world, but having no memory of him, and it's not limited to seeing him in the original world.

By the way, Katie was reading Bai Lin's mind and memory. Naturally, she couldn't read the cognitive errors caused by Bai Lin's lack of impression.

Considering that Bai Lin's original world had nothing to do with these mysteries, at least that was her own perception, the possibility that the object had existed in her original world and that Bai Lin had seen it was very low.

"But if it feels familiar, maybe we've met before under another identity? It's also possible that they've simply changed their appearance. I just tried to disrupt your divinity by using excess magic power, and they might be using a similar method. If that's the case, we can't assert that they are the God of Dusk."

Indeed, there are so many possibilities that it is impossible to consider them all.

What a chaotic, different world.

"Of course, there's a more complex possibility. Bai Lin, you aren't from this world, so you don't have any shackles at all. After all, the Dusk Gods don't seem to have shackles at all. The reason I infer that these titles of yours are related to your memories is just because I linked them together, and it's not absolutely correct."

"That would require further investigation, such as your earlier statement about not knowing the difference between your own world and the Twilight Gods'. However, if we limit ourselves to this question, I have some theories."

Katie Pelo raised her eyebrows, she sat closer to Bai Lin opposite her, and gently pointed at him with her finger.
