Latest website: Alfred is inside, but he is not inside, because there is only a dim yellow halo in the workshop, it is very faint, like a flickering candle, but it is unusually tough.

Leaning against the door frame, Karen grasped his arms with both hands, and smiled as he listened to the voice of prayer coming from the tiny halo.

"Ha ha ha ha ha…"

Smiling and laughing, Karen let out a long sigh of relief.

Previously, the drowsiness that almost crushed me, no, it was the feeling of drowsiness that had crushed me, finally completely disappeared at this moment.

When you are confused, even if there is only one lamp by your side, you will feel warm; if you look up in the dark night, even if there is only one star shining for you, you will feel beautiful.

Life is like sailing a boat in the sea. In fact, most people's boats have no sails or oars, and they just passively drift along the direction of the current.

At this time, if there is an anchor to drop, a moment of stillness is enough to make people envious and grateful.

Karen looked around, and he finally understood why this illusion was so difficult, because the one who built this cage was actually himself.

Sobriety, direct gaze, and conquest in the usual sense are a challenge to the other party as an individual.

But here, your sobriety of yourself, your direct vision of yourself, and your conquest of yourself are equivalent to your confusion about yourself, your avoidance of yourself, and your defeat of yourself.

Ashley's father, Mr. Santos, has described it very well in his diary: when it appears alive, it will be everywhere.

This sentence summed up Puxien's ability extremely accurately. Taking oneself as the benchmark, then oneself is really...everywhere.

It’s just that this description is a bit too simplistic, and even rises to the level of ultimate philosophical perception. If you have never experienced it or really walked through it, you can’t understand the true meaning of this sentence at all.

"So, when writing a diary in the future, it is still necessary to speak plainly, and it is best to add notes."

Karen turned to leave while waving to the faint light behind him.

From the basement to the first floor, the Throne of Order was still placed on the mortuary table.

Karen walked up the steps, came to the throne, sat down without hesitation.

"I've already sat down, but why am I not the God of Order?"

No voice answered him.

Karen touched the armrest of the throne with both hands, feeling this delicate touch:

"The throne itself actually has no meaning. It doesn't make any difference whether you sit or not. The reason why it is respected is not because it is the throne of order, but because it is called the throne of order. It is the chair that the **** of order once sat on. .”

Karen stood up and looked back at the throne behind him:

"The more delicate something looks, the less practical it is. It's not as good as a armchair, no, a rattan rocking chair."

After stepping off the mortuary table, Mr. Hoffin was still sitting there drinking tea on the sofa beside the tea table.

Karen walked up to him, bent down, and said:

"Grandpa Huofen, it wasn't until I got to know you after I went out that I deeply realized how powerful you really are. It's a pity that you died, and it's a pity that you have been awakened.

Otherwise, I will really go back one day in the future, pick you up from the cemetery, and ask you about formations. I originally thought that learning formations is as simple as practicing spells, but now it seems that I thought it was easy.

Even if I have the key to the Rubik's Cube, learning the formation is still a complicated and long-term process. If you are still here, I will be able to ask you to teach me.

But it's okay, you walked away very freely and didn't leave any regrets. "

When finished, Karen reached out to help Mr. Hoffin adjust the hat on his head.

Immediately, Karen walked up the stairs, the golden retriever was still there, sticking out his tongue and showing a silly smile.

Karen put her hand on the golden hair's bald head and rubbed it,

road:

"There is one thing I've always been curious about, but I'm not ashamed to ask you. Is there any relationship between Goddess Mills and Sea God?"

The golden retriever still smiled foolishly, but this smile was a little frozen.

Karen stepped over the golden retriever and went upstairs, where the black cat was still sitting. Karen naturally reached out and rubbed the fluff on Pu'er's neck, and said, "When I go back, I will cook fish for you. No matter how big Allen Manor is, there is no cook who can cook the fish you like."

The black cat's tail stood up, and that white finger seemed to want to point to Karen.

Karen reached out and grabbed the finger,

road:

"Don't worry, one day, I will go to the place where the Allen family found your finger. I hope you have more things left there, so don't let me make this trip in vain."

Karen let go of her fingers, walked to the study, and knocked on the door at the door.

"Doo-doo...doo-doo..."

"Enter."

Karen pushed open the door and looked at Diss sitting inside.

"grandfather."

"Um?"

"I know you are tired and want to have a good sleep and rest, you fall asleep first, and I will wake you up when I go back.

I can feel your pride. In your bones, you are as proud as I am, so our love and hate are so random.

Pu'er passed, you saw your former appearance in me.

In fact, I have been imitating your pride and freedom.

I am very lucky to have an elder like you when I opened my eyes in this world.

I believe you really care for me as a grandson,

because,

I have long regarded you as a real grandpa. "

After finishing, Karen exited the study and closed the door.

When passing by the window sill, he found that "Karen" was still standing there, but this time he was facing himself instead of the window.

"I saw your past pain from Mr. Eisen, so I think that death is a kind of relief for you. It is not that I robbed your body, let alone drive you out of your home. I came to At that time, it was an empty house.

I don't want to tell you that I will help you shoulder your responsibilities in your place, because I am Karen now.

By the way, you are weak, don't stand on the windowsill, it's windy there. "

Immediately afterwards,

Karen pushed open the bedroom door, and Uncle Mason, Aunt Mary, and Aunt Winnie were still inside.

Opening his arms, Karen hugged Uncle Mason: "Uncle, I miss you, you are a humorous elder, and you have taught me a lot of principles of life."

Karen hugged Aunt Mary again: "Auntie, you are really beautiful. I always think that Uncle is very lucky to marry you."

Next, Karen hugged everyone, and finally, looked at everyone:

"Grandpa asked me several times if I really thought about it. At that time, I just wanted to go out to see the scenery.

If everything could be done again now, and grandpa asked me the same question again, I don’t know if I would still be willing to leave home, leave Inmeles Funeral Society, and leave Mink Street.

I, miss you, miss you very much.

I will return,

After I am strong enough. "

After this time, there will be no more gaps in my heart.

Karen raised his head, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers next to his ear.

"Snapped!"

…

Karen opened his eyes, and beside him, Ashley stood there motionless with her eyes closed, and the other team members under him also stood there motionless.

Not only his own team, but everyone in the other three teams also stood still there.

slowly,

Karen set his gaze on the big walnut Puxien.

Puxien's heart was full of despair.

Phantom beasts are also intelligent. Although their race does not have human ethics and social outlook, they have the instinct of life.

What Karen saw, Puxien saw too.

Puxien could only curse fate, and fate let him choose one of the four, and the choice came here.

Why is it him, not the other three-headed Puxien?

Karen lowered his head and saw a white silk thread on his wrist, and the other end was on Puxien's body.

If you observe carefully, you can find that there is a white thread tied to everyone, and they are also connected to all the selectors in their respective barriers.

Karen untied the white thread with his other hand and held it in his hand.

Puxien could not speak or move, but Karen sensed the other party's pleading from the white line.

They didn't beg him to spare their lives. They already knew that the probability of death was extremely high when they were sent up, because they were the consumables of this trial.

It is begging not to punish it in a way more terrifying than death.

Karen let go, and the white silk thread quickly returned to Puxien.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

A siren-like sound came from Puxien, full of relief and gratitude.

Then,

"boom!"

Large walnuts, exploded.

It chose to commit suicide, and it committed suicide without any hesitation, as if Karen would regret it.

After the explosion, the others did not wake up, because Puxien's ability was only a catalyst, and their reaction was not over yet.

Karen guessed that it was probably on his own side that something went wrong, which caused problems for both himself and this Puxien.

As the first person to "wake up", Karen chose to sit quietly and wait quietly.

Five minutes later, the second person who woke up appeared, and it was the sleepy girl next door, Philomena.

After she woke up, the Puxien on her side went straight into the ground and disappeared, giving her no chance to attack at all. Like Karen, she also cut off the white thread on her teammate, What I got was the same result as Karen, and my teammates didn't wake up because of it.

Because the only value of doing so is that Puxien loses the power to monitor the content of the illusion, which has the effect of protecting privacy in time.

Of course, if he could seize the opportunity to kill that Puxien, he would completely destroy the insider.

On the other side, Murray, the captain of the first team, suddenly appeared beside his Puxien in a flash, and a flame of order directly hit that Puxien's body, and Puxien's body was incinerated immediately. .

Immediately afterwards, the bald captain Kane also woke up. He was about to attack Puxien, but his Puxien hid underground ahead of time.

At this time, Punk's voice came:

"There is still one hour left. During this hour, the top three teams with the most awakened teams can qualify for the next round of final tests.

If the last two teams have the same number of awakenings, then the four teams will enter the final round together. "

Ten minutes later, Bart woke up.

A few more minutes later, Ventura woke up.

Then Mars, Blanche, and Ashley woke up after nearly half an hour.

The situation of the other teams is almost the same, but because Karen's team consumes the least and everyone maintains the best condition, the speed of general awakening is much faster than the other three teams.

Karen once again confirmed one thing, that is, she is really an extreme case.

He believed that if the other selectors enjoyed the same treatment as he had just now, most of them would never have the chance to wake up, and even a lifetime of self-awareness closure would be the most normal result.

In addition, Karen also saw that Puxien's level was not about selection, but rather that the organizers were giving benefits, giving young people who came here a chance to improve their self-awareness, and the difficulty was actually very appropriate.

So Puxien should be really expensive, and maybe they didn't even prepare a lot of them, so they gave the Eudemons a stimulant in the last round to let them eliminate some more teams.

At the fifty-fifth minute, the first team, the third team and the seventh team all woke up.

As for Philomena's team, there were still three people who hadn't woken up.

Their injuries are generally relatively serious, and their condition is too poor, so even this kind of welfare cannot be digested at this time.

From this point of view, the team that Philomena was in was about to be eliminated.

But at this moment, Philomena walked up to the two teammates who hadn't woken up, put her hands on their shoulders, and closed her eyes.

Two minutes later, the two teammates opened their eyes and woke up.

Philomena walked up to the last teammate again, put her hand on his shoulder, and at the last moment, exactly in the last minute, her last teammate woke up too.

The other three team members looked at Philomena's behavior in amazement. She actually forcibly entered the soul consciousness of the three people by means of soul bonding to awaken them.

Karen thinks of her habit of falling asleep while walking. Could it be that she "took a dream" into it?

In the end, under Punk's announcement, the four teams collectively entered the next round.

"puff!"

After receiving the news of the promotion confirmation, Philomena spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt down on the ground with blood overflowing from the corners of her eyes, nose and ears. Obviously, she paid a huge price to wake up her teammates.

In fact, it didn't make much sense for her to do so, because this round was the Welfare Bureau, and it was impossible to do it in the last round, because the last round had to be selected by only two teams left.

The current state of her team, including herself, is unimaginably poor, and it is impossible to pass the next round of competition.

In fact, Philomena knew this very well in her heart, but she just couldn't be reconciled.

The reason for her reluctance was not to prove anything to Karen, but because of her pride. Even if she knew she had no chance in the end, she would forcefully advance to the final round, even if she paid a heavy personal price for it.

Even Karen has to admire this point. Although she is not suitable to be a teammate or a friend, her pride and strength make her a worthy opponent.

Above, dark clouds reappeared, heralding the start of the next round of countdown.

Karen looked at his team members and found that all of them were in a low mood, and the other teams were basically in the same situation. They had just come out of the "self-examination" state, and their mood would definitely enter a low ebb.

"Come on!" Karen clapped his hands. "It's instinct to pick up emotions, and it's skill to let go of emotions. At this time, it is the most stupid thing to focus on useless emotions!"

In the end, I had to be the captain to mobilize morale, but I was the one who was under the most pressure before.

"Yes, Captain!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Everyone shouted in response and stood up straight.

"Mass, run the spiritual bridge formation now to connect us all!"

"Yes, Captain."

Ma Si took a deep breath and started to operate the formation. The people standing in the formation were connected mentally, and they could sense each other's emotional fluctuations. Overall spiritual defense.

The first team also operated a similar formation, and everyone also stood in the formation.

Seeing this scene, the captain of the seventh team, bald Kane, patted his bald head and cursed: "Just bully our team without a magician, right?"

at the moment,

The first team and the third team have entered the preparations for the arrival of the artifact, the seventh team is swearing, and Philomena's team has no one standing, basically lying down.

However, when the dark clouds were about to dissipate and cracks appeared above again, the captain of the seventh team, the bald Kane, had a beam of light on his body. He opened his arms and held the hands of his two team members. The other team members also held hands, forming a circle.

They were betting that the power of the artifact would only act on the spiritual side.

Because the artifact is too powerful, if the artifact is let go, then all the teams present will be finished.

Therefore, there is a high probability that this method of team building will really work.

At this moment, a quaint aura leaked out from the crack.

It hasn't entered the crack yet, but the terrifying divine weapon pressure has already poured down, followed by a mental storm similar to a pre-dinner snack.

Even though they were in the formation, everyone in the first team still showed pain and struggle. Although they couldn't hear their voices, they could feel their misery and pain.

Everyone in the seventh team changed from standing and holding hands to squatting and holding hands, tears and snot dripping down one by one.

Philomena's stabbing team had been judged incapable of continuing to compete by the formation mage in charge of them, and they were teleported out of the barrier.

And everyone in Karen's team, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at the two teams next door, all showing puzzled expressions, why don't I feel anything here?

Everyone thought of a possibility!

Ashley turned her head, looked at Masi who was presiding over the formation, and exclaimed:

"Mass, it turns out that you are the one who hides the deepest!"

The rest of the team cast their admiring gazes. No matter what, at the last moment, the hidden boss in the team suddenly revealed his strength to protect the team as a whole. It was a pleasant surprise. No one would blame him He had hidden it on purpose before.

Mars: "Huh?"

Facing the praise from his teammates, Mars was the most confused one. He didn't hide his level. Even if he did hide it, what does it have to do with him?

The formation I arranged didn't encounter any mental storms at all, not even the edge of a small breeze!

"Karen...Karen..."

Because of the spiritual bridge, everyone is connected spiritually to a certain extent, so the transmission of this spiritual shout has also been transmitted to the ears of all team members.

Ventura wondered: "Who is calling the captain in his heart at this time?"

Bart turned his head to look at Ashley and Blanche, and reminded: "You have to control yourselves now, don't call Captain so softly in your heart, we can all hear you."

Because this voice is female.

Ashley immediately shook her head and said, "It's not me!"

Blanche immediately shook her head and said, "It's not me, it's really not me!"

"It's really not you?" Bart still didn't believe it.

Ashley said angrily: "No~lightnovelpub.net~ No, no, even if you want to be the captain, it's not this time, you can't think about it when you go home and lie on the bed after the selection!"

Blanche nodded: "Yes, yes."

Bart wondered: "Hey, if it's not you, who would it be? Ventura, Mars, which of you two is a woman in the spiritual world?"

Ma Si said: "The sound does not come from inside the formation, but from outside the formation."

"Outside the formation?" Bart was even more puzzled, "How is it possible, have you forgotten, we are in the team barrier, and the sound cannot be transmitted, and the spiritual power cannot be transmitted, unless it is that god..."

Ventura answered, "Unless it's a spiritual message from that artifact."

"Brother Karen...I miss you so much...Brother Karen..."

Everyone: "..."
