Chapter 2024

Someone was indeed coming, and Linton certainly felt it.

Turning his head, a figure was walking up the platform step by step through the stairs.

Those who still came here at this time obviously did not go the wrong way, but Linton recognized the person who came up immediately. Not familiar, but not unfamiliar, he is the leader of the round table hall, Sir Baizhi Gideon Offnell.

Linton met him much more times than Melina, except when he first came to the round table hall, he also sent Asuna many times to collect information. Basically, the portals were opened by Sir Baizhi in the room. But even though he had met many times, Linton didn't have many conversations with him. Compared with herself, Asuna should be more familiar with him.

"My guess is right, it really is you." Sir Baizhi Gideon stepped onto the platform, looked at Linton and turned his head, and said proactively, "When we first met, I already saw the burning eyes in your eyes." His ambition and strong confidence in his own strength have a completely different aura from other faders."

"Let's not open our eyes and talk nonsense, okay? When we first met, you were obviously pretending to be a senior, saying 'I'm just a passer-by', and now you say such afterthoughts will not make others think you have good eyesight ’” Linton said.

"I'm not lying." Baizhi Sir Gideon was quite calm, "I have always been very optimistic about you, otherwise I would not provide information about your life like this."

"That's...that's true." Linton nodded, and it was true that when Linton asked Asuna to collect information for the first time, he got the support of Sir Baizhi Gideon, "So, what are you doing now? Let me guess, what you mean is that you were using me at the beginning, using me as a pawn to deal with those fragmented kings, and now that the obstacles are all resolved, you are ready to pick peaches, right?"

"Well, that's how it is." Asuna next to her agreed with Linton's reasoning. After all, the reason is very simple. There are really a lot of information from Sir Baizhi Gideon, and most of them are true information. Helped a lot. But why help them? As an old senior in the round table hall, help the younger generation? Who would believe it.

The actual situation is that everyone is a fader, and everyone is fighting for the same thing, that is the throne of King Elden, and there is only one king, so when everyone is a competitor, you do your best for no reason Help your competitors, what are you trying to do?

So from a logical point of view, Asuna certainly felt that there was nothing wrong with what Linton said. The other party probably wanted to use Linton as a pistol, but Linton would not care about this kind of bug at all. Do you say that you are playing the chessboard? Calculators must at least have some strength.

Linton was indeed full of confidence in his reasoning, but what he didn't expect was that Sir Gideon shook his head: "What you said is not true."

"Huh?" Linton was stunned for a moment, "Uh... no, you don't have to say it out of fear of losing face. At this time, you just need to point at me and say 'you...how do you know' or something like that."

"What you said is not true." Sir Gideon repeated again.

"Hey, do you have to say something? Then you can't come here to observe my ascension to the throne, right?" Linton said.

"Of course...not." Baizhi Sir Gideon said, "I agree with your will, but getting your wish is another matter."

"You are really going around with your words, but after talking for a long time, you are still here to grab the throne?" Linton said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense and show your blood."

"I am not here to fight for the throne." Baizhi Sir Gideon did not do anything, but continued, "But I am indeed here to stop you."

"What's the difference?" Linton held his forehead, "If you stop me from being the King of Elden, who will be the king, isn't it you?"

"You don't understand, because what the goddess Marika wants us to do is to maintain the status quo and keep struggling." Sir Gideon spread his hands and said.

"Huh?" Linton was quite disdainful at first, thinking that the other party was being stubborn, but he was a little surprised when he heard this, "So you mean that you came to prevent me from becoming King Elden, not to snatch it. Your purpose is to keep everyone from being the one and continue to compete with each other?"

"Yes." Sir Gideon nodded.

"And you mean that the goddess Marika asked you to do it?" Linton asked.

"Yes." Baizhi Sir Gideon nodded again.

"Are you sure? Didn't you say Malika disappeared? Have you seen her?" Linton asked.

"I hear her voice," said Ser Gideon, Pakage.

"Is it so nagging?" Linton said, "Based on our analysis, we speculated that the goddess Marika destroyed the Elden Ring in order to establish a new order and complete the incomplete golden law before. Then follow What do you say, Malika doesn’t think so, she just wants this junction to become chaotic, and the purpose of destroying the ring is to keep all qualified people fighting with each other and keep it going?”

"Yes, that's what the goddess Marika means." Sir Baizhi Gideon nodded.

"This goddess Marika is simply a scumbag." Linton said, "You call her a goddess even for such a thing? Are you still willing to help her work?"

"A faded person cannot become the king of Elden, and I am the same." Sir Gideon Baizhi said, "Humans cannot kill gods. Humans are humans, and gods are gods..."

"Is this what Malika told you?" Linton asked in a daze, "Didn't you add 100 points of intelligence? Think about it a little bit, is there a possibility that this guy is worried about being killed by humans, so Quickly make up something to scare you?"

"No, that's the truth," said Baizhi Sir Gideon.

"Hey, you're really interesting." Linton smiled, "A few days ago, I heard that the guy named Supreme Will had developed a god-killing weapon because of the eternal city of Nokronn, so he directly used it They have penetrated into the ground, it seems that this information was given by you."

"The truth is, they didn't do it." Baizhi Sir Gideon said, "They didn't kill the gods, and their so-called god-killing tools didn't have the ability to kill the gods. But their behavior has already blasphemed the gods His majesty, so they were also punished by God, that’s all.”

"Oh, there is indeed some truth to what I said." Linton nodded, "Well, let me put it another way. You are listening to the goddess Malika right now."

"Human beings cannot resist gods," said Baizhi Sir Gideon.

"Alright then, look at me, I'm an envoy of God now, I can directly hear the voice of the supreme will, I'm conveying its will now, you quickly kneel down and call me daddy." Linton said with a smile.

"Huh?" Sir Baizhi Gideon was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

"What are you waiting for? Get down on your knees and call me daddy. This is the decree of the gods. How dare you resist?" Linton said with a smile.

"You are not an angel." Baizhi Sir Gideon said directly.

"Pay attention to your attitude!" Linton suddenly raised his voice, "What are you, a humble human being? You can question whether I am an angel or not? What identity do you use to question it? Me? Are you talking about it?"

"..." Sir Baizhi Gideon was really stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Don't you understand? Am I an envoy of God? It's not your turn to ask questions. If I'm not an envoy of God, then I'm pretending to convey the will of the gods. The god you said will naturally punish me. After all, I This is proper blasphemy, right? I know you doubt what I said, but you have no right to question what I said, if you still have faith in your god, come, kneel down and call Dad."

"..." This out-of-the-ordinary play really confuses Sir Baizhi Gideon, who really doesn't know how to deal with the current situation. Because what Linton said is indeed reasonable. Whether he is an envoy of God is really out of his control. If he tells lies, he will naturally be sanctioned by God. Why should I question it? I can’t feel that I have the identity of God.

"What are you hesitating? I'm quite strange." Linton said with a smile, "Do you think that I am the envoy of supreme will, so you don't need my words. Then I am now Malika's envoy again, I On behalf of Malika to convey the will to you, kneel down and call Dad. Don’t you like to listen to God’s words? Kneel down.”

"..." Sir Gideon still stood where he was.

"Why don't you kneel? Malika asked you to stop the faders and keep the world chaotic, so you just listen? Now you don't listen to other orders? You only listen selectively to the decree you want to hear Is it? If that’s the case, is it God’s will or your own? " Linton said with a smile, "If you have any doubts about God’s order, you won’t stop me today, right? Think about it, now I say that Marika said that there is no need to stop me, what are you going to do? The two decrees contradict each other, are you still a human being? Which side do you listen to?"

"I...I..." Sir Gideon was really stunned. He couldn't question Linton's words because he was not qualified. Not being able to question it means that what Linton said is the decree of the gods, so what should I do if the decrees of the gods conflict with the decrees of the gods? This is simply a paradox for Linton.

"Just 100 points of intelligence?" Linton spread his hands, "I guess he can't believe it. I hope that the Supreme Will will take the initiative to trouble me again, so faith and intelligence are indeed two attributes. Don't use them together. , it's really useless."

"I... what should I do..." Sir Baizhi Gideon said in confusion at this moment.

"If not, you should kneel first." Linton said with a smile, "I'll show you something exciting."
