I Am Xilolin

The girl in the shack was stunned, but she wasn't afraid; her eyes even became more intense.

She did not refuse Qin Xin's roughness. She took the opportunity to grab his forearm with both hands, straightened her waist and lifted her hips to press forward, and her plump thighs wrapped around his... chest and back without hesitation.

To be honest, this girl from the shack wasn't short at all, but she still looked a bit petite next to Qin Xin. Her long legs, which she was so proud of, couldn't tame Qin Xin's waist, but they did manage to get closer to Qin Xin's heart.

This scene left the two people behind him Cheng Shi stared blankly, eagerly anticipating the next paid content, and even wanted to hang the white cloth with the words "Paid Viewing" written on it from his space on the shack.

The Blind Man was also surprised. In her "vision," she only saw the surging desires of the entire region unleash a terrifying wave that instantly swallowed Qin Xin and directly engulfed the "lighthouse" that radiated the brilliant light of "Memory."

"..."

"..."

The room fell silent, and the atmosphere became tense.

After a few breaths, Cheng Shi suddenly realized that something was wrong, because he found that Qin Xin was completely unmoved by the "enemy's" "attack". The Fire Keeper did not refuse the girl in the shack's approach at all!

No way, buddy, you're actually enjoying this, aren't you?

But then he frowned and looked at Qin Xin's hand that was gripping the other's chest. The hand was obviously exerting force, but it seemed to be suppressed by some force, so it had no effect!

A former number two warrior couldn't even shake this shack girl off him!

How is that possible?!

There's a problem!!

Cheng Shi was startled, and an absurd thought suddenly popped into his mind.

"Xilolin!?"

Three gasps rang out from the small shack. The girl in the shack, who had been lingering over the warmth of Qin Xin's armor and wantonly absorbing his desire, suddenly heard her name. She paused for a moment, raised her eyebrows, and jumped off Qin Xin.

"So you weren't a newcomer after all?"

Yes, I am Xilolin.

"Interesting, who recommended you?"

It really was her!

This girl from the shack is actually the person in charge of this area, Xilolin!!

But how could she be in a place like this, in the most dilapidated and remote part of this shantytown?

Cheng Shi and Qin Xin were both surprised, and the Blind Man was even more so.

She turned her head slightly to look at Cheng Shi, becoming even more convinced of the saying that "Destiny" protects those who come to pay homage.

Qin Xin stepped slightly to the side, blocking the two of them, his expression somewhat unpleasant as he said:

"The Sirens, or the Sirens that can corrupt power."

Xilolin licked her lips, savoring the warmth of the embrace she had just felt, and said:

"Not bad, very sharp eyes. What, don't you like it?"

Oh, I see now, you're rejecting my Lord, so... you came from above?

Want to go back?

I advise you to give up. Aside from the fact that the [Abyssal Volcano] is currently extremely volatile and difficult to smuggle through, what good is the Surface anyway? A bunch of evil god Believer just follow the rules all day long, burying themselves in research...

Ha, what's there to study? Wouldn't it be better to study how to embrace desire?

The Cosmos is full of suffering, and the world is full of setbacks. Why oppress yourself? The most important thing for people is to learn to cherish themselves, especially to cherish themselves. If you can't learn this, then let me cherish yourself for you...

As she spoke, Xilolin tiptoed to Qin Xin's side and pressed herself against his arm again, her whole body rubbing against his arm like a water snake, as if trying to warm his cold outer garment with her fiery body heat.

Qin Xin made no move, simply letting Xilolin dance her body.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi was overjoyed. He moved sideways with crab-like steps to the Blind Man's side and whispered:

"You Fire Keeper are quite something, using your good looks to your advantage?"

"Does he use it often?"

The Blind Man tilted his head and smiled, then shook his head and said, "Under normal circumstances, when Qin Xin doesn't speak, it means he's gathering his strength."

"Charging up power? Charging up what power?"

Cheng Shi was stunned. Before he could figure out what this meant, he felt a strong wind suddenly blow in front of him. Qin Xin's arm suddenly rose again, piercing through the roof of the shack along with the beautiful snake wrapped around his arm. Then, amidst Xilolin's astonished expression and unexpected scream, it crashed down, denting the entire floor of the shack.

"Boom--"

The ground shook violently, causing Cheng Shi to stagger half a step. He stared dumbfounded at the "Great Warrior God" in front of him, blinking in bewilderment.

No, buddy...

But it wasn't over yet. Just when Cheng Shi thought the leader of the Brotherhood of Extreme Desire would retaliate immediately, he saw Qin Xin stand up and stomp on Xilolin's chest. His two iron arms swiftly reached down, and then he heard a "sizzle" sound. The sound of the colorful gauze tearing, the grinding of teeth as bones broke, and the woman's screams all entered his ears.

Blood splattered everywhere, severed arms flew through the air, and Xilolin's hand was ripped off.

"..."

Seeing this scene that resembled torture, Cheng Shi was dumbfounded. He looked at Qin Xin with bewildered eyes, then at the Blind Man, as if wondering if this was still the same Fire Keeper organization he knew.

The Blind Man chuckled lightly, unsurprised, and said:

"We know that goodwill alone cannot go far, so those Fire Keeper not only have the flame to warm people's hearts, but also the Thunderbolt to sweep away the villains."

Those City Defender are worthy of praise and respect; those City Builder are worthy of fear and awe.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi raised an eyebrow, quickly regaining his composure. A glint of light flashed in his eyes as he looked meaningfully at Qin Xin's retreating figure, clicking his tongue in amazement.

"I always thought you were a City Defender, but now the Blind Man tells me you are actually a City Builder."

Interesting, but Qin Xin, you don't seem like the kind of person who only believes in elitism.

You wouldn't happen to be... um?

Cheng Shi's meaning was clear, but Qin Xin still didn't answer him. The Mirror Walker just smiled and then reached out his hand towards Cheng Shi.

"The warrior's work is done. Now it's the Priest's turn. Let's keep her alive, Cheng Shi. We still have many questions to ask. Hopefully, she can hold on a little longer."

Cheng Shi curled his lip, then looked at the Blind Man and said sarcastically, "I'm going to return the questions you asked earlier to you. Aren't you Fire Keeper afraid of failing the Trials by taking action directly?"

The Blind Man shrugged, pulled up the gauze curtain that barely obscured the view, and turned back with a smile:

"Isn't this what you're here for? You said that death is never a simple thing, and only that the Great One can define death. And you, Cheng Shi, you are very familiar with Him... Am I right, my savior?"

"..."

Well, I've gotten myself into a mess.

The teasing didn't bring any amusement, but it did result in a test.

Cheng Shi bowed and begged for mercy, admitting defeat. He quickly cast a Healing Art spell on Xilolin, who had fainted from blood loss. At the same time, he cautiously looked outside the shack, only to find that the commotion had not attracted the attention of anyone outside. This made him think again of the sound filtering method in Qin Xin's hands.

Qin Xin noticed Cheng Shi's question, and with a slightly serious expression, he opened his hand and showed a polished white object.

Cheng Shi had some knowledge of the human body, and after looking at it for a moment, he realized that it seemed to be a... toothless mandible?

He blinked, as if he had thought of something, and said with a slightly surprised expression:

"The bones of the [silent] Believer?"

Did this thing 'eat up' the sound?

"Qin Xin, you didn't just pick this up from someone else, did you?"

Qin Xin nodded solemnly, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes. "Yes, but I didn't dismantle it, he did it himself."

"???" Cheng Shi's pupils shrank sharply, and he asked in surprise, "The Fire Keeper?"

"Indeed, he was a Fire Keeper, the first Fire Keeper I personally recruited. When he learned that the Passing the Flame must remain silent and not be known to the gods, he secretly followed the 'Folly' Experiment of the Tower of Civilization Isolation and refined himself into the first silent tool of the Fire Keeper."

"..."

"His wish was simple: he felt that he was not strong enough to save anything, so he decided to become a part of his 'strength' to help and protect others."

He sheltered and protected many people, and those he protected and sheltered are now silently carrying on his last wishes.

Cheng Shi's pupils contracted slightly, and he was shocked. He pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

Protecting beauty is never a simple matter, especially in this apocalyptic world where everyone is insane. Pure beauty may never be able to protect beauty; only madness that matches the colors of this world can possibly achieve their desires.

So who says the Fire Keeper weren't a bunch of lunatics?

They are the craziest people in the world!
