[One Piece] Inferior Star

Chapter 777 Cruel Instructions

When Robin and the others walked to the library of the Tree of Omniscience, it was almost dusk, and Robin didn't know why the time passed so quickly, but in a blink of an eye, not only the time, but also the surrounding environment seemed to have happened. Change.People get tense and flustered, like... like that night that Robin remembers so well.

"Robin!"

After walking a few steps inside, Robin was suddenly pulled into a room. Duck almost showed his lightsaber, but luckily, the person in front of him was very familiar to Robin: "Dr. Bin called out his name in surprise.

"Why are you here so late! Robin!" The gray-haired old man named Ku Luoha, although dressed casually, can feel his decency and wisdom, but now he grabbed Robin nervously and said, "Quick It's too late, Robin! You've got to get to that room right now, or there's no time!"

"That room... what does that room mean? Dr. Kuroha! I..."

"I understand. Robin, I understand what you want to say." Dr. Kuroha suddenly calmed down, he looked at Robin with a smile and said, "It's okay, everything here is over. Although we didn't usher in anything Good ending, but there's nothing you can do about it now. So go find your freedom too, Robin."

"PhD……?"

"Okay, let's go now." As he said, Dr. Kuroha's expression became serious, and he pushed Robin into the room, "Your friends are waiting for you, there is no time to delay. Listen, Robin, no matter what you see ahead, don't even think about staying here, you can't stay here, you know?"

Whatever you see in front of you...?Robin didn't even have time to ask, and was directly pushed into a door by Dr. Kuroha. After Dak also walked in, Dr. Kuroha slammed the door and shouted from the other side: "Don't forget your companion ! Robin! They're waiting for you!!"

The sentence was emphasized again, and then Dr. Koroja fell silent.Robin looked at Dak in shock, Dak shrugged: "This is a phantom, so it may not be logical... In short, we can only move forward."

Well... this phantom must be trying to tell him something, Robin is so sure.What Dr. Kuroha said just now also proved this point.The information I am about to get can help my companions who are fighting the 'god' outside at this time.And...need to be quick.

Robin couldn't help speeding up her pace, and soon she found that this place was a bit familiar. This was the depths of the library, which was the place where her young self had strayed after chasing the little cat.In the dark room at the end, there stood a young man with a smile on his face... Of course, there was nothing there now, but as if guided by something, a book on the bookshelf was shining slightly.

The cover of the book has been worn out, and there is no name on it.This is not so much a book as a notebook.Open the note, it is full of crazy nonsense, free and easy and messy handwriting, the owner of the note must be quite unstable, he mentioned the now lost magic in the note, as well as some very familiar descriptions.

The narrative is not difficult to understand, and Robin quickly extracts important information from it:

Long, long ago, there was another kind of intelligent life in this world, that is, the mythical elves that we keep finding in the records.They are beautiful, powerful, and even immortal.It is impossible to verify whether they initiated the war of conquest in the first place, or whether human beings triggered the rebellion of jealousy.Judging from the results, this war was won by humans.

But how did humans defeat the powerful and immortal elves?What method was used to make such a prosperous race disappear from the earth?The answer is simple, the answer is very simple, like why there is no magic in this world anymore.Humanity seeks the power of something higher... no, maybe something lower.

Humans made a deal with something, and that thing tore through the barrier and escaped from the dream.Its corrupt body pollutes the earth.The air was even filled with its rancid smell.Its blood pollutes the land, making it impossible for crops to grow.Its breath pollutes the air, and any creature that breathes it becomes sick.

The elves are polluted, losing their immortality and even their civilization.They mournfully perished amid accusations and cries.And human beings also paid a painful price, and there has been a "plague" on the earth since then.

After that, humans even used the same method to eliminate dissidents and make themselves lose the ability to compete with dreams.From then on, few people with magical talent were born among human beings, and mages became extinct.So, how did human beings survive in a world full of 'plagues' with absolute mortal bodies?

The answer is also very simple, the answer has always been very simple... Those who have read this far, are you ready to bear the burden of mankind?This will become your destiny, to accept the corrupt side of human beings, but also to accept their great side, in the midst of contradictions, endure humiliation, and guard civilization.You will be one of the people who know the most outrageous truths, and if you are ready, I can tell you...

Because beings called 'heroes' will be born among humans, and their swords, even ordinary iron, will be endowed with great power.Where does that power come from?I don't know, but it exists, it does exist, and it turns scrap metal into holy swords and rags into armor.When the 'Plague Dragon' rages, heroes appear.

Is this magic?Nope.Because humans have long since lost their magic.But just like the prophecy of magic, like the fate written in the book, whenever this happens, the hero will definitely appear.They will stab the holy sword into the heart of the dragon to prevent the plague from spreading.

Some people say this is a great act of human beings, and I think it is true.But perhaps, this is also a despicable act of human beings.At the very beginning of the deal with the evil dragon, did humans sacrifice their own heroes, in exchange for a hero who would surely appear to save everything?

Because they don't have to worry, don't have to worry, heroes will definitely appear in every critical moment, and they are the best sacrifices.That's the truth, and that's all I've found.If you're looking for a way to slay a dragon, it's simple: Find someone, become a hero, and let that hero plunge his sword into the dragon's heart, and it'll all be over.However, as a price, the hero will die.

All magic has a price. This is a contract that humans made with demons before they lost their magic. It is about the curse of heroes.Now you know why there is only one statue left for each hero?this is all.

After sorting out the information, Robin even felt a splitting headache.After all, the real content of the note is not so clear, and there are some other things mixed in, including the author's own emotional output and truly incomprehensible nonsense, and there are even a few pages of well-painted pictures of beautiful girls .In short, it is certain that the person who wrote this note is a lunatic.

It's just that the madman's research is not completely worthless, and his final conclusion makes people care.Robin finally came to her senses, and she said, "In...in this created world, who is the 'hero' in the setting? Duck?"

"...It's the master." Dak also frowned, and he said, "She is a 'brave', and she should be the hero in the story who will kill the dragon in the end."

"That is to say, if Xiangxiang really goes to defeat the dragon, she will... die?" Robin closed the notebook, and she said, "How...how can...we have to stop this!"

That Celestial Dragon's plan can be said to be foolproof.The one who slays the dragon is destined to die, no matter what, he will not lose.This kind of extreme one-for-one behavior is hard not to make people believe that he has some mental problems.Moreover, if Youxiang and the others knew about this, it would be very troublesome.

First of all, it is absolutely impossible for other people to let Youxiang die.Who will kill the dragon will also become a problem, and who should be abandoned... No.No one can give up! !The problem now is to find a way without sacrificing anyone!

"Nicole Robin."

"??!"

Robin, who was still looking at the notes and feeling unbelievable, suddenly heard someone whispering in his ear: "This is not your fate." The man said exactly the same words as Lance back then, "Get out of here quickly."

who is it? !Robin turned around, she didn't see anyone, and the voice just now was much more mature than Lance's, it wasn't Lance...not Duck, who was it? ?

At this moment, the library suddenly made a loud noise, as if it had been hit by a shell, boom!Robin almost lost her footing, but Duck helped her up: "We have to go, Miss Robin."

"But..." There should be clues here, it should be... Before Robin finished speaking, there was another bang, the whole earth shook, books in the library fell from the bookshelves, and even the bookshelves collapsed. Bin was immediately pushed out of this room by Dakla, and the entire library was collapsing!

This is... is this the Demon Slaughter Order? ?Robin's buried memories began to come up again, and she felt herself trembling, if it wasn't for Dakla running with her hand, she felt that her legs would have been too weak to run.Those bloody days, that too short parting of life and death, were too cruel for a child.

Robin thought it was over, but no.Never.

Duck drew out his sword to cut off the fallen bookshelf to make his way out. After running for a while, suddenly a figure ran out from behind the bookshelf!It was a woman with long silver-white hair. At first glance, this woman looked very similar to Robin. She was wearing a dark coat, holding a gun in her hand, and looked nervous: "Robin!!"

"Mom...Mom???" Robin made a sound in shock, and she suddenly remembered Dr. Kuroha's words: No matter what you see, you can't stay here.

"You have to get out of here, Robin." Robin's mother's face was firm, but when she saw her daughter's face, her expression softened again, "Don't worry, Robin, you have found the answer to your question."

"Answer?" What do you mean...?Robin said, "I don't want to sacrifice anyone, Mom, if there's a way, it's here—"

"Robin." Her mother interrupted her, "You have already found the answer to your question." As she spoke, she held Robin's hand, and at some point Robin's notebook appeared in her hand, "Go, go For your friends. You found it, right? For your comrades you could risk your life for? For them, you know what to do."

The shell hit the Tree of Omniscience again, and it was already crumbling!Just as the chandelier on the ceiling fell with a snap, a huge body blocked Robin, her mother, and Duck under him!

"Ahem... Robin! Go!" The red-haired giant coughed dryly because he was hit. He didn't know where it came from. Now he punched through the ceiling with a punch, and then bent down and grabbed Robin. and Duck near the big hole he made: "Go! Robin, there's still room for you!"

"Saron... Mom... I still think, I still have a lot to say to you!" Not only about my companions, but also historical texts, I found a lot of historical texts, and met and I People who can also read ancient texts are incredible, aren't they?In this world, there are still people who can immediately interpret it after seeing it once...

On the sea, I encountered many incredible things, I want to tell you, but, but...

"It's okay, Robin." Robin's mother smiled. "We have become the past, but you still have the future. Go and save the future of your friends."

Robin couldn't remember what happened next, she just remembered her mother's smile and Saron's giggling laugh.He said he knew he could do it, and he said he always believed that.When the laughter was completely drowned out by the gunfire, Robin suddenly recovered and found that everything had disappeared.

Whether it was O'Hara, or the Demon Slaying Order, whether it was the library or relatives, they all disappeared.A long and narrow cave passage appeared in front of her again, with only Duck holding her hand beside her: "Are you okay, Miss Robin?"

"...I...I'm fine. Thank you Duck." Robin paused for a while before speaking, "That's really... so true..."

"I understand." Duck shook his head, he said, "However, Miss Robin's relatives are a little different."

"Different?"

"Ah. People in the phantom... usually try to keep people in the phantom. But Miss Robin's relatives seem to just want Miss Robin to leave quickly." Duck said, "I think they must be special Different... Someone who cares about you very much."

"..." That's right... That's right, they are such people.I was saved by them, which was exactly the same as when O'Hara's Demon Slaying Order happened.Robin said, "The temple is really evil..."

"Are you really all right? Miss Robin?" It doesn't seem to be all right...it's impossible for anyone to be all right."We can take a break. I think we're safe," Dak said.

"No." Robin shook her head, she immediately cheered up, "Others are still waiting for us, we have to tell everyone what we found before it becomes irreversible!"

--------------------

The author has something to say:

The so-called phantom is actually someone's memory, that is to say, in fact, on a certain day, Robin read that notebook, and she forgot the knowledge because too long time passed.Phantom can't retell something that doesn't exist if she hasn't seen it.

The phantom Youxiang saw about her mother in the temple is partly the holographic image information recorded by the temple itself (because Youxiang's mother is a person related to the temple), and the other part is caused by Youxiang telling her mother. The phantom created by the impression!

I’ve actually been playing Old Touhuan recently, this game is really addictive hahahahaha… the game is so fun, I don’t want to go to work at all (lying on the ground rubbing Xiangxiang’s little face)
