Lu Xin's anger reached its peak at this moment.

He couldn't stand the plan Old Director said, and even thinking about it made him feel crazy.

Black particles surged crazily like dark clouds because of his anger.

Layers were lifted up into the sky, as if to fill the entire twisted abyss space, and burned into twisted shapes.

His eyes were burning with black flames like stars, and he looked towards Old Director coldly.

But at the next moment, Lu Xin, who looked like a roaring demon in the black flames, actually rolled the angry flames aimlessly in all directions. He even raised his hands, but stopped his movements again. He stood silently for a long time, as if a low sigh sounded in the black flames. Then he slowly opened his eyes, and the black particles slowly calmed down.

Anger cannot solve problems.

Lu Xin I have understood this since I became a human being...

Old Director, on the other hand, was originally indifferent and even looked at Lu Xin crazily, seemingly with a hint of provocation.

He is not afraid of Lu Xin's anger, and naturally he is not afraid of confronting him.

Even if Lu Xin's anger could drown him countless times, it would still be the same.

However, he didn't seem to expect that Lu Xin would suddenly calm down, as if he suddenly figured out something.

This made him slightly curious, so he calmed down and looked at Lu Xin.

At this time, Lu Xin's whole person was wrapped in a mental turbulence that was changing like black particles and was like a flame. Even if Old Director borrowed the power of the Beginning to stabilize his consciousness, he still could not penetrate Lu Xin's black particles, so he could only frown and look at Lu Xin hard. But at this moment, he suddenly found that the twisted space around him was moving away.

It was as if the flying ribbons were dispersed from before his eyes, and the chaotic mental power intertwined and changed, and then stabilized.

Old Director found that he was back in the residential building just now. The walls, chandeliers, and floors were all changing from illusion to reality. Even the food on the table was still steaming hot, as if the distortion and confusion just now were just an illusion.

He still sat at one end of the long table, and Lu Xin sat at the other end.

Beside the table, everyone else slumped on their chairs, enduring panic and despair in the spiritual world.

At this time, Lu Xin seemed to have lost all his anger, and looked very calm as he picked up the bottle.

Slowly, he poured a cup into his own cup.

After thinking about it, he tipped the wine bottle again, and a bunch of wine pillars fell to the ground. The wine in the Old Director cup in the distance was full.

It looks like magic.

"So..."

Lu Xin slowly put down the bottle, frowned, and seemed to be thinking, "Did you deliberately arrange this situation for me?"

He seemed to be asking a question, "Because of what happened in the past, are you deliberately arranging to torture me?"

"This..."

Old Director was slightly surprised when he returned to the residential building for the first time.

However, he quickly adjusted himself and was silent for a moment before shaking his head with a smile.

"Not really."

He was still as calm and natural as before, and explained with a chuckle, "My child, I only made this arrangement based on rational considerations. My purpose is just to ensure the normal progress of the sacrifice, so I made such an arrangement. I know you will not do this, so naturally you will not interrupt my plan. After that incident happened, you became a different person."

"In other words, a... person."

"..."

"In this case..."

Lu Xin was silent for a while and tentatively said, "Thank you?"

Old Director smiled silently, then shook his head and said, "This is your own effort."

"But I still don't quite understand..."

Lu Xin After being silent for a while, he said softly, "Why do you have to promote this sacrifice so firmly?"

This question seems to be repeated.

But Old Director quickly understood why Lu Xin asked. He did not hide it and explained softly:

"Because that's the only way to do it."

"This is a desperate world. You must admit that you cannot prevent the arrival of the Beginning, and you are not its opponent. More importantly, everything in this world has fallen into darkness and madness, and is always on the verge of collapse and destruction. When the madness and despair of this world are far greater than the beauty and hope, is it necessary to continue to exist?"

"..."

As he said these words, he seemed to be faintly touched, and picked up the wine Lu Xin poured for him in front of him.

"Don't pretend you don't know."

He was holding the wine glass, but his eyes turned from the wine glass to Lu Xin, and his voice became slightly colder. "You actually know what the world is really like. Now of course you can say that the world is beautiful and life is good, but you and I both understand that this is just because you are too powerful, so powerful that everyone needs to consider your feelings, so you see the beauty."

"But haven't you seen the true face of this world?"

"When you were released to Qinggang by a generation of researchers, and before you were recruited by Qinggang Special Purity Department, how was your life?"

"Do you still need me to tell you?"

"..."

Listening to Old Director pointing to the essential issue like a sharp scalpel, Lu Xin was slightly silent.

That was indeed a bad memory.

I work hard every day and have not yet learned to be lazy and fishy.

But he would still lose his job suddenly.

She works so long every day and is reluctant to spend it on herself, but the money she saves is still not enough to feed and clothe the children in Crimson Moon Elementary School. She is working hard, and Teacher Lu is also working hard, but she is also stumbling and being turned away by countless cold looks. She cried and said that those people are eating steaks that cost hundreds of dollars, but I just want to add an egg to the children...

It was truly a life so hopeless that people dared not have a future.

"You live in Qinggang, and I have traveled to all corners of the world..."

Old Director's voice was even a little heavy at this moment. "So I have seen more things than you..."

"I saw the true undertones of the world, the greedy labor market, where they treated people like livestock and sold them on chains; I saw the cruel and bizarre exhibition, where they burned the skin of a five-year-old child and wrapped him in a black dog robe; I saw the naked slaves digging in the farmland with their hands, their hands polished off their flesh and blood, and they used their pale bones to dig out the frozen soil."

"I also saw the so-called new generation of doomsday nobles who were addicted to and degenerated in the fragrance of Black Grass. They even took their superiority as a matter of course. They never thought about how to build a new civilization and order. They put all their energy into studying how to make themselves slaves in this doomsday world..."

"Can we still not understand this world?"

"Then just see what kind of ultimate is born in this world..."

"Paranoia, confusion, fear, numbness, vanity, greed, silence, confusion, lust for power, theft, nightmares, and..."

"Wrath and death!"

"..."

Old Director made the conclusion coldly. "Ultimately, they are the representatives of this generation's civilization, and they will not lie."

Lu Xin sat opposite Old Director and was silent for a long time.

In this empty room with only two people awake, the voice of Old Director seemed to echo for a long time and refused to disperse.

After a long time, Lu Xin nodded slightly and said, "I know, what you said is true."

"But I still..."

He paused and then said, "I believe there are beautiful things in this world."

"Heh..."

Old Director seemed to sneer faintly, and then just looked at Lu Xin indifferently.

Lu Xin was also pondering, slowly thinking about his answer, "I have seen some of the things you mentioned."

"It's really hard to get into the eyes, and I've even seen more cruelty, but..."

He thought carefully for a moment before speaking out:

"I won't ignore the bad things, but I can't deny the good things either. I saw a man who had a broken leg and had difficulty moving, but he still ran around in this world desperately for a group of homeless children."

"I've seen people trying to build a wall to keep out the crazy people outside the city."

"I have seen people risking their lives to fight against Mental Monster who they don't even understand..."

"I've seen people die but still remember their responsibilities."

"I have seen that when despair comes, people who could have hidden behind the scenes stand in front of the stage..."

"..."

He said so much in one breath, even Old Director seemed a little surprised, frowning slightly and looking at him.

The expression of ridicule has disappeared a lot from his face.

"So, I think there are still a lot of good things in this world."

Lu Xin looked at Old Director and expressed his conclusion. "They are just sleeping temporarily because people are too scared. Crimson Moon incident is a disaster. It makes everyone too scared, so they hide their kindness and beauty."

"So, this world is not desperate, it just needs to be awakened..."

"..."

After listening to his words, Old Director narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Xin as if he didn't recognize him.

After a while, he suddenly shook his head slightly, with a self-deprecating smile on his face, and said:

"I knew you would turn into a human before, but I didn't expect that you would become the person you are now."

"..."

"Because I have grown up..."

Lu Xin followed Old Director and replied, "It's also because you are old."

"Dean..."

He hesitated slightly, and called out the title in a strange way, and then continued, "In my eyes, you used to be an unattainable image. For a long time, yes, the time when the background of my life was still black as you said, all I remember is the previous stories you told us, the civilization and order you mentioned..."

"In fact, before I knew you were alive, I only remembered the good side of you..."

"..."

Suddenly, when Lu Xin said this, Old Director seemed to be slightly moved and moved his body unnaturally.

"But now..."

Lu Xin shook his head slightly. "Even if I didn't say what you had done to us, I wouldn't think that way."

"It's obvious to you now..."

He looked up at Old Director and said softly, "You are just a desperate old man."

"You are so desperate that you don't want to believe that good people and bad people are actually the same people all the time..."

"You don't want to believe that this world has a future, so you want to change back to the past world..."

"..."

"You..."

Old Director seemed to realize something from Lu Xin's calm voice, and he suddenly became slightly nervous.

The Adam's apple slid slightly, and the voice rose slightly. "What do you want to do?"

He understands people and Lu Xin. After hearing what Lu Xin said, he suddenly understood why Lu Xin's anger disappeared, why he suddenly calmed down at such a desperate time, and could even discuss it with himself rationally.

Because he has already made a decision.

Only those who understand what to do and decide to do it will have such calmness and rationality.

"Dean, you are right."

When Old Director started to get nervous, Lu Xin showed a relaxed smile on his face and said:

"Of course I won't kill them, I won't hurt these classmates, I will just do my best to protect them."

"But I will also stop your plan."

He smiled and said, "Because I think this world is still worthy of being saved, and it is also worthy of having a future."

"So..."

He suddenly raised his head to look at the ceiling, and when he raised his eyes, the ceiling of the residential building suddenly disappeared. His eyes directly saw the Beginning in mid-air, with countless spiritual tentacles hanging down. The dark red tentacles were so deep that it was indescribable. Even just a glance made people feel like they had entered a huge spiritual sea like the vast starry sky...

Lu Xin faced the unpredictable, unknowable and irresistible the Beginning, his eyes became firm.

"Isn't your plan to sacrifice this world to the Beginning and then ask it to help you shape the civilization before Crimson Moon?"

"Then I will become the Beginning, and then refuse your sacrifice!"

"..."

"..."

Boom!

When Lu Xin said these words, even Old Director seemed to have exploded a nuclear bomb in the spiritual world.

He, who was calm and rational, suddenly panicked like a tremor and almost fell off his chair.

There seemed to be endless madness in his eyes, and his pupils shrank to a needle, staring at Lu Xin at this time, his voice trembled slightly, trying to stay calm. "Child, I said, that is not feasible, you can't do it..."

"The plan of a generation of researchers is inherently absurd and has no chance of success..."

"The Beginning will drown all consciousness, even you who have Sole Consciousness..."

"..."

"It's still a bit challenging..."

Faced with Old Director's horror, Lu Xin just smiled and nodded, saying, "After all, it's Trial of God."

As he spoke, he drank the wine in the cup. Because he was taking care of his image at this moment, he drank quickly and in a big mouth. He suddenly felt the spicy taste in his mouth. He covered his mouth with his hand and coughed without trace. Then he looked at Old Director with a smile and said, "But, I believe I will have a chance to win. After all, I have promised many people to help them..."

"Always mean what you say. This is the rule of life."

"..."

Old Director's palms were trembling, and the body made of spiritual power reacted instinctively like a real body.

He couldn't help but want to stand up and use his weak body to hold Lu Xin.

"By the way, Dean..."

And just when Old Director's body was about to rush out, Lu Xin suddenly turned his head and smiled at him:

"Compared to that genius researcher at Eclipse Research Institute, you are indeed a little behind..."

"..."

When Old Director heard this sentence, he felt as if he had been hit hard. He instinctively wanted to reach out and hold Lu Xin's hand, but fell down slumped.

There was endless confusion and pain on his face.

Different people may have different understandings after seeing the expression on his face at this time.

There is shock, horror, frustration, and overwhelming sympathy.

"Child..."

He exhausted his last strength, but said something to Lu Xin that had nothing to do with his plan:

"If you do this, not only will the probability of success be very, very small, but you will also be very sad..."

"Even if you temporarily stop the Beginning, the sacrifice will not disappear, it will just stop temporarily."

"You are equivalent to using endless torture and your own life in exchange for a hope with a very low success rate..."

"..."

Lu Xin was silent for a moment, turned to look at Old Director, and saw little but real distress in his eyes.

Suddenly feeling relieved, he nodded slightly and said:

"Dean, you are really a good person when you show your weak side."

"..."

After saying this, Lu Xin stood up easily, smiled, and walked forward with him.

Everything in this residential building began to become distorted and chaotic again, with layers of space overlapping.

Lu Xin In this illusory and confusing space, I walked up the invisible steps.

As he walked, he slowly took off some things on his body...

There are the red glasses he wears on his face, the black bag he always holds in his hand, the mysterious playing card with Mom Mental Palace sealed on it, and even a bank card that he secretly hid before others.

... The bank card didn't work, so I took it back and put it in my pocket.

Lu Xin stepped on the invisible steps step by step, raised his hand to disperse the endless hanging spiritual tentacles, and walked towards the Beginning.

A round of Crimson Moon appeared in the sky, seeming to occupy half of the sky.

At this time, Lu Xin looked like the Crimson Moon that was about to walk into the air.

"What is he going to do?"

In the black bag thrown down by Lu Xin, skinless puppies and other little monsters, etc., all trembled out of the bag and looked up at Lu Xin helplessly. At the same time, For the ultimate, Lu Xin's sister, as well as the distant Qinggang, are supporting the Beginning with their own spiritual power and struggling to protect Kid in this world.

There is also the roaring and desperate father, and everyone in Qinggang.

The gray-haired Fire Thief, in this abyss that blends with reality, is filled with endless weirdness...

They felt something at the same time, and subconsciously turned their attention to the spiritual level, looking at Lu Xin at this time.

Lu Xin stood in front of Crimson Moon, stopped for a moment, and looked back.

He saw Qinggang at this time. In the orphanage, Teacher Lu was hiding in the basement with the children in his arms. He saw Kid fighting against the Beginning's spiritual tentacles. He saw Chen Jing, Han Bing, and Professor Bai, Mr. Su, Minister Shen, I saw Vice President Xiao, I saw the black-hearted aunt selling vegetables downstairs, I saw Gecko, Tie Cui, the drunkard, the goddess and Red Snake, Troublemaker Kid and the watchdog.

Around me, there is No. 2 who wants to get rid of God's Nightmare, No. 3 who wants to go home and guard his wife and children, No. 5 who wants to invest in the research and development of new drugs to make money, No. 8 who wants to put an end to all this, and No. 8 who has been hiding for so long, Number Twelve, who could never escape, finally came back, and Number Fourteen, who had always been timid, but was willing to accompany Number Twelve in planning the assassination plan against Old Director...

The obedient Little Nineteen, and the Little Seventeen who is not Little Seventeen, sister...

Dracula's Doomsday Legion is in the north, where there are the awesome Clockwork Orange, the loyal Old Wang, and the beautiful Red Shoes.

At Miss Rocket Launcher's defense line, there are Xia Chong, who has finally been upgraded to a senior investigator, and his good friend Scalpel.

In this corner of the world, Gao Ting and Old Zhou Little Zhou are obliged to escort relief supplies in the wilderness...

Land of Chaos A small, well-behaved village outside...

Too many...

"What's there to worry about..."

Lu Xin suddenly laughed, and his inner thoughts became clearer than ever.

"There are indeed many dark and crazy people in this world, and they have made the world scarred and exhausted."

"Perhaps if this world had its own consciousness, it would have thought about it when it became depressed and desperate under the gaze of the heavy Crimson Moon above its head. Wouldn't it be better if such a tragic experience had never existed, if it was just a nightmare and disappeared when I woke up?"

"However, I believe it still chooses to continue living, carrying this wound, towards a new future..."

"Otherwise, why would he create so many wonderful and lovely people?"

"Tomorrow is always there, the shadow is only temporary..."

"..."

With this thought in mind, Lu Xin glanced at the world with nostalgia, then turned around and walked into Crimson Moon.

Until the figure disappeared in the light of Crimson Moon, he always had a smile on his face.

"Brother..."

A long-drawn-out crying voice rang out in the altar of chaotic spiritual power, and my sister panicked to the extreme.

She is the person who knows Lu Xin best. Her brother is a coward...

He was most afraid of loneliness. He would even cry when he saw no one at home when he went home.

But this time, he dropped the black bag and walked away from everyone.

He was alone and faced the Beginning.
