Chapter 346 This is to buy your life(1/3)
After Karen returned to his cabin, he lay down again and began to rest. The token binding ceremony would be held late at night. This was earlier than the original plan to enter the Valley of Samsara, so he needed to adjust his condition in advance.
Ventura stayed in Karen's room and did not dare to go forward and call his captain. He was not afraid of being kicked again, but he was afraid of disturbing the captain's rest.
The entanglement and emotion in his heart caused Ventura to huddle in the corner and cry silently, wiping his tears with the back of his hand over and over again.
When it was time for dinner, Ventura took a deep breath, got up and went out to fetch dinner for the captain, and met Ashley Blanche and others in the restaurant.
Before they could take the initiative to ask why Ventura's eyes were red, Ventura took the initiative to tell him that the captain wanted to replace him.
so,
When Karen was pushed up to have dinner, his room, which was not very big, was filled with all the team members.
The windows of this cabin room are fixed and cannot be opened, and there is no exhaust fan inside. It is already very stuffy. So many people are crammed in at once, and all of them have solemn expressions. It directly deepens the air and atmosphere.
Feeling of breathlessness.
Karen reached out and rubbed the center of his brow, and said dissatisfiedly: "You need enough fresh air to sleep, so that you can have good sleep quality."
"Captain..." Ashley pursed her lips and continued, "We all know."
"You know it, it's nothing special." Karen picked up the dinner plate, hesitated for a moment, and then stood up, "Let's go to the deck to eat."
If you are taking a sea boat at other times, going to the deck to eat is definitely not a pleasant thing. The rocking hull and the waves that can hit you at any time can add more spices to your dinner.
However, there is no sea breeze in this area, and the ship travels very steadily. After arriving on the deck, Karen can even place the dinner plate directly on the railing of the ship without worrying about it falling down.
The dinner was not rich in variety, but the portion was large, including three fried chicken drumsticks, a large portion of curry rice, and six fried fish steaks.
Others were standing nearby with plates in their hands.
Bart said: "Captain, let me do it instead."
Karen picked up a chicken drumstick with his left hand, took a bite, glanced at Bart, and said, "I don't want to talk nonsense anymore."
"It's not nonsense, captain, I mean..."
"Okay, let's not discuss things that have been decided. It's not like going to the cinema to watch a love movie. A simple plot needs to be told back and forth several times. Save time. Besides, I will be annoyed."
Everyone fell silent and began to eat with their heads down.
The first person to eat was Ventura. This boy who always had the biggest appetite in the team had a rare loss of appetite tonight.
He broke the silence and said: "Captain, do you have a way to deal with it?"
Ashley also echoed and asked: "Captain, can you protect yourself?"
Karen didn't answer, just biting the chicken leg and looking at the heavy fog ahead.
After receiving the "task" from Groven's room, he has been thinking about a problem. This problem is very simple, but extremely complicated.
Why was such an extra thing added inexplicably when we were about to reach the Valley of Samsara?
Taking the token to go to the Gate of Reincarnation to pick up Gaitanbert and Fenites is a task that has long been known. When Balat assigned the task, he said that there were three tasks in total, and the order of importance was from low to high.
I held a meeting with Muri and directly reversed the tasks assigned by Bharat, changing the priorities from high to low.
Therefore, the high-level back-up staff is waiting here.
Choose one person from each team and let them bind to the token. For Gaitanbert and Fenites, these two teams are like wandering around with flashlights in the dark. If they still exist, then
You must be able to "see" it.
Then, through the formations bound to the token, the person bound to the token "loses" the ability to resist and becomes the best carrier for the opponent to take over.
Therefore, the higher-ups don't care at all whether you can arrange the tasks yourself, because they have already arranged them for you.
What Karen was thinking about was not this, but how they dared to make such an arrangement and lay it out so clearly.
As Karen said to Groven earlier, that's not fair!
In Karen's logic, sacrifice requires logic, just like standing on a levee and trying your best to block the levee to prevent it from breaking. That is because you know that you need to protect the residents below the levee and you understand the meaning of sacrifice before you can make the sacrifice.
But why should we sacrifice the current people to bring in two souls who don't know whether they are alive or even in what state they are alive?
This completely untenable and devoid of self-convincing approach of purely treating people like silver pots,
Are they so sure that these selected young people will agree and will not refuse?
However, it turns out that they just didn't refuse.
Whether it was Ventura, Ashley, Bart, etc., they never expressed their anger or doubts about the arrangement of the top management from the beginning. They came to persuade and care about them based on the fact that this matter was a foregone conclusion.
I want to replace this position again.
In their perception, this is a matter of course.
It's Mu Li. He went home for a reunion dinner yesterday. Now it seems that he knew his "arrangement" at that time, so his mood today is a bit low, but it's just a low mood. He was with me in the coconut grove that night.
The young man who had been fighting for a long time had a completely bowed and accepted attitude when faced with this arrangement.
It was only now that Karen realized that his previous understanding of the divine religion was still one-sided.
It is not a country, although its internal structure is very much like one.
It is not a society, although its mode of operation is very similar to that of a society gang.
It is not an interest camp, a club, or a research club for like-minded people.
It is a religion, it is a church.
The first Priest of Order that he had in-depth contact with was his grandfather Dis.
The second person who had in-depth contact was Mr. Pavarro.
The third person who had in-depth contact was the captain.
Dis has long been a rebel of the church. If he had not condensed three divine heads, his rebellious crimes would probably have entered the history of the church.
Mr. Pavarro's "human integrity" side covers his "church attributes." In Karen's eyes, he is more like a local police chief than a believer.
Captain, he looks more and more like a fun-loving person now.
In fact, my vision is still too narrow, and I mistakenly think that what I see is everything.
However, this is not the case.
If the captain had not blindly followed the hope of being with Miss Yin Lisa in a church-certified way, Miss Yin Lisa would not have lost herself and committed suicide without waiting for the real resting liquid.
If Dis could cut off the church from his family as he does now, "his" parents would not have ended up like that.
Even Mr. Pavarro, while listening to the painful sobbing of his two daughters late at night, continued to reject external resources. Is it his character that supports him or his loyalty to God?
Praising the God of Order one after another is actually an oath again and again. When God needs you, when God needs you, when the religion needs you, you will dedicate everything you have without reason.
You don't even need a valid reason.
because of God,
That's the only reason.
Muri's grandfather knew that his grandson had been selected, so he just asked him to go home for a farewell meal and let him go.
So, my grandfather, Mr. Delong, is also such an old man?
Therefore, his grandmother, Mrs. Tang Li, would not tell him of her existence.
If one day, the divine religion needs Eisen and Richard to do the same thing, Mr. Delong, there is no need to ask the reason. Maybe, it is to have a farewell meal, and then send his son or grandson out to serve the great God of Order.
Give everything.
Karen suddenly felt a little scared. Now that she thought back to her relaxed state of mind at Guman's house, she subconsciously thought that this was also the home of her relatives... It was simply a crime against her own life!
The Guman family, not the Immelais family, Grandpa Delong, and certainly not Grandpa Dis.
The difference between them is not in strength.
Karen held the chicken legs in his hand and began to look around at the young people standing next to him. For a moment, he felt that they were so strange.
I am so lonely, no, out of place.
The Cult of Light promotes light to the world, and the Cult of Order promotes order to the world...
I only saw light, I only saw order, I only saw faith;
But they forgot that there was a god above them.
In terms of faith, how can it have a god?
Karen put the spoon into the curry rice. Now he wanted to reach out and grab a notebook and a pen, and then write something on it, but this was the deck of a ship, not a funeral club.
Backyard study room.
…
"There has never been a savior, nor a fairy emperor..."
In the study room in the backyard of the Funeral Society, Alfred was sitting behind the young master's desk, humming his favorite hymn and sorting out his "Master's Quotations", also called "Karen's Quotations".
Although he had long memorized the contents above, the black notebook was still open in front of him. This was an indispensable ritual for Alfred.
Because everything he records and organizes comes from the young master's records in this black notebook.
Suddenly, Alfred was stunned because he saw the sound of "chacha" coming from the black notebook, as if he was writing, but the problem was that the pen was lying next to it and was not moving at all!
