Chapter 128 Burning
Chapter 128 Burning
Lin Hun's wrist trembled, "clang!" The sound of metal breaking was heard, and he used his clever strength to remove the scabbard of the Black Knight's sword. Now he has not left the fishing village in Kos's territory, so he does not have to worry about being discovered by other superiors.
In order to give the orphan a quick death, Lin Hun deliberately released the fire hidden in him.
A surging flame burst out from the sword, and the red light reflected in the orphan's eyes. In the flame, he saw his own death.
"Wow! Is it finally starting!? 'Fire'!!!"
The long-awaited Kos sensed the rising temperature in his field.
After spending some time together, Kos had already witnessed Lin Hun's vigilance, so he did not lean forward to watch. Now that he had decided to hand over the commission, he could only trust it.
Lin Hun held the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands and walked to the side of the orphan, locking his neck tightly. His previous goal was about to be achieved in his hands.
No matter what creature it is, if you chop off its head it's half dead!
Flames streaked across the night.
Everything is settled.
The orphan who refused to struggle was driven back into his mother's arms.
However, when the orphan thought about not having to face Lin Hun again, the resentment in his heart finally dissipated a little.
Killing the orphan was not enough. Lin Hun did not extinguish the flame of the sword, but inserted it into the heart of the headless corpse on the ground, and took off the shield inserted in its vest.
Lin Hun sat on the ground with his legs crossed beside the fire, throwing the remains of the orphan next to him into the flames one by one like adding firewood. Occasionally, when he encountered a relatively complete and huge thing similar to a placenta, he would draw out his long sword and cut it into pieces before throwing it into the fire.
He said he would cut it into pieces after getting the sword, and he would do so without breaking his promise.
Because it is cut into small pieces, it is easier to burn and the fire will be stronger.
The last bit of hard bone was burned into ashes by the flames, and a black shadow appeared under the sword, which was blown away by the wind as the flames swirled.
Lin Hun clearly felt that the oppressive feeling that had always existed in the surrounding environment had disappeared.
"The light is gone too?" Lin Hun raised his head curiously. The dim yellow disk above the sky disappeared at the same time as the orphan died.
The sticky feeling appeared again, and as soon as Kos appeared, he couldn't stop laughing. The stubborn child who had been wandering outside for a long time finally returned to his mother's side, and He couldn't help but be happy.
"Hehehe, but Fire is very efficient~"
Lin Hun could clearly hear the difference in Kos's voice. In the past, there was only his voice in the conversation, but now there was the sound of a child crying.
The orphan really returned to his mother.
"It's no big deal. The orphan has returned to you. The nightmare of the fishing village is over, right?"
As soon as Lin Hun opened his mouth, the child's crying stopped instantly without any sound.
Kos was stunned, and then he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"It seems that this child is really afraid of you, 'Huo'."
Can the orphans still retain their memories when they return?
This was something Lin Hun had not expected. He originally thought that the orphan was merely possessed by obsession and resentment, but he did not expect that it was truly the orphan's consciousness.
Have I reached the point where I can stop a baby from crying?
Lin Hun didn't expect that the first person who would be afraid of him would be the child of the superior, so he decisively chose to change the subject.
“Will this nightmare ever end?”
"Do you want this dream to end?"
Kos's question made Lin Hun feel a little confused.
"What does this have to do with me?"
"The villagers in these dreams are already dead," Kos added, feeling that his statement was not precise enough. "Their bodies are already dead."
"They may have decayed or been burned... In short, they no longer exist. Their consciousness exists because they have been in this dream. They are just ordinary people. Even if they are influenced by me, their consciousness is not independent. Once the dream is over, their consciousness will naturally dissipate without a body to return to."
"You could say that it was thanks to this dream that their consciousness was saved."
Lin Hun originally thought it was just a trivial matter, but he never expected that there would be such trouble. He felt a little annoyed.
"Don't worry, the dream won't affect those of us who are in a higher position. He is not qualified to influence beings of our level. Time in the dream passes by at will, and time in reality is just a moment."
"But even if ordinary people are like us, it won't work. The experiences and memories in these dreams are real. If they were poured into their brains at once, they wouldn't be able to handle it and would be cooked immediately."
"Even so, do you still want to end the dream? Or save them?"
Every word of Coase's questions hit the heart, and Lin Hun fell into a dilemma.
Can he make a decision?
Of course he could make the decision. Without him, this nightmare would just continue forever with no end. It was he who put an end to the orphans.
But he couldn't make decisions for these living, conscious people at will.
Just by the naked eye, there were no less than two hundred deformed villagers crawling on the beach. If you add those who stayed in the village and did not appear, the number was estimated to be over three hundred.
The number of zombies that Lin Hun had killed along the way was at least double this number, but he still couldn't declare a person dead at will.
Since this is Kos's territory, He should be able to control it!
After figuring this out, Lin Hun immediately looked up and asked.
"Can't you transform the dream here into a beautiful dream? Since this place belongs to you, you should be able to do it."
"That's a good idea," Kos replied nonchalantly, and the sound of the baby's laughter came along, "But unfortunately it's not possible. The dream here was originally formed because of unwillingness and resentment. These two emotions have become the basis of this dream."
Lin Hun reminded, "But I have solved the source of the nightmare!"
"Yes, you sent the child back, and his resentment disappeared. The resentment that exists now belongs to the villagers. They are also victims. In addition to fear, they also have hatred in their hearts. Unfortunately, as long as this emotion still exists deep in their spirits, it will be impossible to restore the dream, unless you can resolve the hatred in all of their hearts."
Lin Hun was silent. He believed that he was not the hero in some hot-blooded anime, nor did he have the eloquence or the ability to change everyone's mind with just two sentences.
It seems like this is the only way to go!
"Then burn with my flame!"
"What?" Kos suspected that he had heard it wrong and could not understand Lin Hun's words.
"My flame has the property of burning, right? I see that those villagers can no longer bear the dream and have fallen into ignorance. Rather than letting them stay in the nightmare, I would rather use my flame to send them out of this dream peacefully. At least my flame will only bring them a moment of pain."
