Chapter 1122

In a teahouse where players gathered.

A Foxian man had a complex expression and said: "Unbelievable. As a Foxian, I would actually be moved by the death of a Borisin."

A woman, also a Foxian, beside him sighed: "Not just you, how could I be any different?"

The Foxian woman's close friend said: "Because although they are all Borisin, Protector Pili was already human, while that Borisin wolf-soldier remained a wolf."

An adult Xianzhou man said: "Indeed. The monks of Danlun Temple use methods like practicing precepts to grind away their various bloodthirsty and evil thoughts, returning to a normal human state. Even for a Borisin, achieving this makes them completely different from those Borisin hunting packs that take pride in slaughter and plunder."

The companion beside the adult Xianzhou man said: "I just don't know how the Xianzhou will ultimately handle the affairs of Danlun Temple?"

The adult Xianzhou man sighed and said: "That is something for the General and the Six Charioteers to worry about."

【In the game's plot, Tuona and Miss Shemo buried Protector Pili here.】

【Miss Shemo said softly: "Let's bury her here. Pili liked cold environments. At this moment, she has a feeling of returning to her nest."】

【And 0089, who had been still for a long time, suddenly said: "Cannot understand. Known: By means of the Exercise Ceremony, you wish to petition for Danlun Temple to join the Xianzhou Alliance."】

【"But your precepts severely obstruct the achievement of the goal."】

【"Logic: Through calculation, it is known that conquering and eradicating the Xianzhou, eliminating all non-consensual individuals, is the optimal solution to achieve the goal."】

【"The precept of 【No Killing】 severely limits your behavioral capabilities. It is an irrational algorithm; it caused Pili to lose her organic life."】

The livestream room.

"Good grief, this must be a mechanical vanguard left over from the Emperor's War. It says something shocking the moment it opens its mouth."

"Conquer and eradicate the Xianzhou? With the strength of Danlun Temple, if they could do that, would they still need to ask for the Xianzhou's protection?"

"If this were said during the peak of the Mechanical Empire, it might have been very possible, but now, it's somewhat unrealistic."

"But even so, I feel that with the ability of 0089 (Shanshi), it might be able to make the Xianzhou flustered and cause a great commotion."

"Indeed, if 0089 (Shanshi) could control all the Aurumaton Gatekeepers of the Xianzhou..."

"Holy crap! That would indeed be troublesome."

"But judging from 0089's words, is it also concerned about the death of Protector Pili?"

"Hard to say. Although the intelligent machine also has an emotional module, it's impossible to know what kind of emotion 0089 has for these three Borisin monks of Danlun Temple at this moment."

The Yaoqing Xianzhou.

Feixiao, who was still feeling complex about the death of Protector Pili, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows as she watched 0089 (Shanshi)'s words in the game's plot: "A leftover mechanical vanguard alone cannot achieve this."

Jiaoqiu narrowed his eyes and said: "But for a war machine of the Mechanical Empire from the Emperor's War era, having such thinking is not surprising."

【In the game's plot, listening to 0089's words, Tuona's gaze was calm, a trace of reminiscence flashing faintly as she said: "When I first joined Danlun Temple, I thought the same."】

【"This universe forces you to use violence time and time again. On the road to protecting civilians and temple monks as they flee, it's either kill or be killed."】

【"I have broken the precept against killing more than once... I would rather have my own hands crushed by the rings I wore than be unable to stop myself from tearing open the enemy's throat."】

【0089 asked curiously: "Question: What corrected your conclusion?"】

【Tuona said softly: "I adopted Miss Shemo. I saw the fear in her eyes when she watched me fight. I realized that each of us is forging the world of tomorrow."】

【"I cannot bury the seeds of fear and hatred into the soil of the future, letting Miss Shemo become a link in the cycle of blood and fire."】

【"Beyond the slaughter, we still have the power to choose. The existence of Danlun Temple is the best proof."】

【"Death is merely the passing of the physical body. In this war against the universe, as long as we still hold to the 【No Killing】 precept, we will never face the defeat of the soul."】

The livestream room.

"Is this what 【I can be killed, but not defeated】 means?"

"The death of the body, the inheritance of spirit and will? I can understand Tuona's thoughts to some extent, but it just feels a bit like going from one extreme to another."

"In a cruel universe, adhering to kindness is a difficult and noble choice."

"It's just that, as Tuona said, in this universe, many things you face are forcing you to use violence. Sometimes, we have no choice."

"This has to be said to be a kind of sorrow."

Following Dan Heng watched the game's plot and sighed: "Regardless, being able to persist in this kindness is worthy of respect. It's just that protecting this kindness requires not only a firm and persistent heart and will, but also strength."

Himeko said: "Danlun Temple also realized this, which is why they are seeking the Xianzhou's help and protection, right?"

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses and said: "It's just that for the Xianzhou Alliance, accepting Danlun Temple, which is almost entirely composed of Borisin, is a risky and major decision. Whether they can get their wish remains an unknown."

Following Dan Heng nodded and said: "Mr. Welt is right. This has nothing to do with right or wrong. For the stability of the Xianzhou, sometimes, one must make choices one is unwilling to make."

Speaking of this, Following Dan Heng thought of Jing Yuan. As a General of the Xianzhou, how could he be any different?

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

The Seat of Divine Foresight.

Lieutenant Yanqing watched the game's plot, feeling somewhat heavy, and said: "I didn't expect that such Borisin would really exist."

Jing Yuan sighed: "The galaxy is vast; there will always be people or things we cannot imagine. It's just that examples like Danlun Temple are, after all, in the minority."

Lieutenant Yanqing nodded and said: "I understand, General. I won't lower my guard against all Borisin just because of Tuona, Pili, and Miss Shemo."

【In the game's plot, a heart-stopping scene appeared before everyone's eyes along with the footage projected by Shanshi.】

【A bounty hunter dressed in IPC attire seemed to have been wounded and sat on the ground, breathing heavily. 0089 and Miss Shemo stood before this bounty hunter.】

【And on the ground beside them, Tuona, the wise scripture master of the intelligent beings who was alive not long ago, had now fallen there without a sound, unable to say another word.】

【【Emperor Rubert is already dead, but the remnants of the Anti-Organic Equation still lurk in every corner of this universe.】】

【【Regarding these individuals, the Interastral Peace Corporation has only one instruction for bounty hunters—at all costs, destroy them all.】】

【"When pushing me away, what was Tuona thinking?"】

The livestream room.

"This is... Tuona was killed to protect Shanshi..."

"How should I put it? Such complex emotions."

"Sad that Tuona died to save Shanshi, touched by the change in Shanshi's thinking, but did this bounty hunter really do something wrong?"

"Anyone who understands the Anti-Organic Equation knows its danger. The Corporation isn't wrong in this regard, but... no one is wrong, so why is it still so painful!"

"I finally understand why the male lead in a work I once read said: '【It's all the world's fault】.' When you don't know who is wrong, just blame it all on the world."

"Don't try to be clever at a time like this, brother."

"Sigh, I finally understand why only Miss Shemo and Shanshi arrived at the Xianzhou in the end. This is the reason."

"The galaxy is really dangerous. Don't look at how easy it was for many people to travel through the stars before; for more people, walking in the galaxy is still fraught with danger."

March 7th watched the game's plot, covering her mouth and exclaiming: "Ah! Tuona also..."

Following Dan Heng sighed deeply: "Of the three representatives sent by Danlun Temple, only Miss Shemo remains."

March 7th had a complex expression. Looking at the scene of Tuona falling to the ground and remembering Tuona's appearance before, she never thought that in the blink of an eye, they would be separated by life and death. She murmured: "I have never understood the four words 'life and death are impermanent' more clearly than at this moment."
