Alien Knights

Facing Scathach's statement, Todd was silent for a moment.

Then he asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

Before Scathach could speak, Leviathan's voice sounded again: "Things like good and evil are never absolute. They are attached to individuals, factions or ethnic groups, and they only exist relatively. This is like what I once said Point of view - the right to eliminate the human race to preserve the survival of other races. At that time, this was the greatest good I saw."

Todd pointed to the floating buildings in the sky and said: "But it turns out that even if humans do not need to be eliminated, peaceful coexistence of races can still be achieved."

Scathach nodded: "Yes, you are right. We are looking for a new path to control and balance the power of all races, but in this process, we will inevitably encounter things we don't want to encounter. The problem."

Todd lowered his face, gritted his teeth and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Scathach walked up to Todd and said quietly: "Todd, as a new soul, you have only seen and heard in the universe for only a few decades, but your mental and thinking achievements have... Let us pioneers be amazed..."

Todd looked at Scathach and said with a wry smile: "Let me guess, you are going to say no next."

Scathach said slowly: "However, when faced with certain things, you are more willing to think and deal with them from a perceptual perspective. This method is not bad, but it may lead to unwanted results."

Todd closed his eyes and said softly: "So, you are now accusing me of not being cold-blooded or cruel enough?"

"We don't want you to turn into a cold-blooded and cruel lunatic, but we also don't want to see you make irreversible consequences because of making overly emotional decisions." Scathach stretched out his hand and gently comforted Toto. De's cheek: "Always remember your goals and your dreams."

Leviathan, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Todd, you may not understand yet."

"What?"

"Whether it is heaven or hell, everything we are working hard for now may be wasted because of one thing."

Todd asked in confusion: "What happened?"

"The Battle of God's Choice."

After Leviathan said this word, his tone became extremely serious: "Use the method of soul judgment to restrain and control the behavior of the race. The prerequisite for the success of this method is that it must obtain the support of the New God."

"According to our creator, Jingsu, once a winner is found in the Battle of God's Choice, that winner will gain the power to change all the rules. Even Scathach and I cannot interfere with the peace process. Against the rule of the New Gods.”

"If this new god is an open-minded and wise person, then everything is fine. The forerunners can negotiate with him and convince him to try to use soul judgment to bring peace to the entire world; but, if this new god is A dictator, even...a madman..."

Leviathan's voice lowered: "At that time, the only thing Scathach and I can do is to submerge the island to the bottom of the sea again, while waiting in fear for the end of this era of gods, while praying for the next one. The new god is a wise man.”

Scathach looked at Todd, the smile on his face was a little forced: "Todd, before you came to this world, Leviathan hid in the deep sea for millions of years, and I almost lost hope in this world. It is your appearance that allows us to see a glimmer of possibility and see that the world can escape the cycle of destruction and end and usher in a brighter future."

"But the premise of all this is that you must win the battle of God's Chosen, so that we can continue to build this future."

Todd's brows furrowed into a frown: "Let me clarify my thoughts. Are you saying these things to me today because you learned something about the Battle of God's Choice from Jingsu? In other words, in terms of victory progress , someone has more advantages than me?"

Scathach shook his head and said, "Sorry, we can't tell you..."

Todd said helplessly: "Okay, then I won't ask you about the Battle of God's Choice. The topic returns to the previous choice between good and evil. Do you also know something?"

Scathach shook his head again and said: "We can't say..."

Todd threw his head back and sighed.

Leviathan whispered: "No matter how holy the goodness is, there is evil, and no matter how pure the evil is, there is also a conscience."

Todd felt his head getting bigger again: "Can you stop playing these riddles with me!"

Leviathan sighed, and his voice gradually disappeared into nothingness.

Scathach picked up the slate in his hand and smiled at Todd: "Consider these words today as a suggestion."

Watching the figure of the purple-haired queen slowly float into the sky, Todd closed his eyes weakly and murmured: "Why do you still have to add more burdens to me? I have done enough, why can't I leave without worries? ...?"

"Can you be friends with us?"

The girl's clear and sweet voice sounded behind Todd.

Todd opened his eyes and looked back.

Not far behind him, the innocent Aurora stood on a stone, with the manticore as docile as a big cat beside her.

She stood on tiptoes and shouted to the sky above her head again: "Can you be friends with us?"

Todd followed the direction of her gaze and looked towards the sky. The original angel Shields was floating in mid-air, looking at the girl on the ground in surprise.

Shields retracted the six wings of light and slowly landed next to Aurora. He looked at the latter and carefully identified: "You... you are the daughter of the Supreme..."

Aurora jumped off the boulder, skipped to Shields' side, and sniffed hard with her nose: "You have a good smell, didn't anyone tell you?"

Shields lowered his head and looked at his whole body, and said confusedly: "Smell?"

Aurora took off a cloth bag from her waist, which was filled with all kinds of candies: "Let's be friends."

Shields looked up at the busy angels in the sky and said in an apologetic tone: "I have something very important to do..."

Aurora looked determined: "I can always wait here for your answer."

"Supreme Daughter, you may be able to find someone else to be your playmate. I really have many important things to do..."

Aurora pouted her mouth, lowered her head and hesitated for a long time, then suddenly nodded vigorously, as if she had made up her mind.

She took out a cartoon-shaped little dragon from the backpack behind her, reluctantly handed it to Shields, and said softly: "This doll is my most precious treasure. It was given to me by my father for my birthday." Gift, whether it is eating, sleeping or traveling, I will take him with me...I will give him to you now..."

"I……"

Looking at the doll with frayed pins, Shields said only one word, but found that he could no longer speak.

After a long time, Shields slowly lowered his eyelids, stretched out his palm, took the doll from Aurora's hand, and smiled for the first time since his birth.

"I am willing to be your friend..."
