Chapter 873 God of Orthodoxy
Beside the dirty river.
Li Qi confronted the three people.
Of course, they thought they were confronting Li Qi, but Li Qi was just observing.
And such observation would not last too long, just a moment, Li Qi had completely understood their situation.
"Well... you are all good people." Li Qi said so.
In the sense that Li Qi believes, law enforcers are basically good people.
In Li Qi's opinion, the criterion for judging whether a person is a good person is "altruism". As long as they are willing to benefit others, they are all good people.
And these spellcasters are typical "altruists". For them, even if they have suffered serious psychological trauma, they are still willing to restrain themselves, put their own interests behind, and use their abilities to protect most people from being harmed by weird things. It can be said that it is quite noble.
Whether it is the young man who crawled out of his mother's body, or the old soldier who is used to obeying orders, or the ignorant, three-faced, and actually knows nothing, like a baby-like artificial ability girl, they are all those people that Li Qi will face with a smile.
However...bad guys really like to push other good guys and weak guys to the front, making it difficult for other good guys to do their job.
The same is true in front of me.
"Your situation is not good, but... it's just right, let's go, I'm looking forward to the new residence you give me." Li Qi said so.
The old soldier breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter who this guy is, he looks easy to get along with.
Then, as long as he is taken back to the headquarters, no matter how weird he is, he should be able to be suppressed in the shelter there.
After all... there is a friendly 'strongest weird in history' there, and it is the existence of the other party and the support of the royal family that make the law enforcement bureau truly become a law enforcement and violent agency that can deter weirdos and various superpowers.
Li Qi maintained his usual gentleness, temporarily interrupted his plan, and followed the other party to leave.
Li Qi embarked on his journey through the underground train.
The underground train station is the transportation hub here, with six huge entrances, like a beast with its mouth open, swallowing people into the ground, and then drilling out six railway trunk lines from behind them.
Li Qi sat on the seat of the subway and looked outside.
There were some monsters flashing in the tunnel outside the subway, but they were all harmless black shadows, which was quite interesting. It seemed that there was a gathering place of spirits under the ground, and it must have been haunted.
The two men sat in front and behind Li Qi as if nothing had happened. They seemed to be very relaxed, but in fact, the safety of their guns was not turned off, ready to fight Li Qi at any time and anywhere, and they were sweating from nervousness.
Only the three-no girl really didn't feel anything. She sat next to Li Qi and stared at Li Qi intently.
Li Qi also smiled at her.
She tilted her head, then searched in her pocket, turned out a piece of candy, thought about it, broke it in half, and stared at the two halves for three minutes.
Finally, she chose the big one with a heartache and handed it to Li Qi: "Please...eat it."
This action made the backs of the two men in front and behind tense.
"Thank you." Li Qi smiled, took the candy naturally and put it in his mouth.
"By the way, as a return gift, this is for you." Li Qi stretched out his hand in front of the other party, but his palm was empty.
The two men immediately cast their eyes over, their hands already on the trigger of the gun. The young man had poor concentration, and cold sweat had already emerged from his forehead.
Then Li Qi turned his palm, and a trace of power from the inner world surged out, giving birth to a flower.
The flower was delicate and tender, even with water droplets, as if it had just been picked from the garden in the morning.
In this world full of sewage, such a flower can only be seen at the banquet of the nobles, and the fresh and fragrant smell made the two men feel stunned.
The three-no girl was even more stunned. After several seconds, she took a deep breath, took the flower, stared at it for a while, and took a bite.
Then her expression obviously changed to (；′⌒`).
"It's so bitter... It smells good, but it doesn't taste good."
"Shh——" Li Qi chuckled: "Of course it doesn't taste good to eat like this. You can take it back and chop it up, and boil it with sugar and it will taste good. This is called rose jam, and it tastes very good."
"Okay." The three-no girl nodded, and then put away the flower she had taken a bite of.
From beginning to end, except for the bitter face that tasted bitter, she had no other emotions.
The two men looked at each other, and then turned their heads away.
It can be confirmed that this is indeed some kind of weirdness. If he is a human, then he is already strong to the point of weirdness.
Creating things out of thin air...
Fortunately, he is a friendly type with this level of power, but he doesn't know the details.
The atmosphere in the car is no longer so tense.
About an hour later, Li Qi arrived at the "headquarters".
He didn't come here to follow the crowd, but suddenly felt that he should see the ultimate trump card here, the "strongest weirdness" in this world. From the other party, he can evaluate the impact of the dead demon on this world, and then infer the continued strength of the dead demon's wreckage on the outside world.
This is also one of Li Qi's purposes for coming to this world. He was going to use this sample to observe the dead demon from the beginning. As for the others... they are just by the way.
Of course, through the scan before the true knowledge, he probably knows this ‘strongest weird’ better than anyone else in this world, but after all, it is an intelligent creature. Before really talking to each other, no one knows what decision the intelligent creature will make.
This is the wonder of high wisdom. Even if you have completely understood the other person’s life, you still can’t judge what he will do. They are not machines. After all, deduction is just ‘probability’, not a real decision of the future.
Of course, for Li Qi, if the future is not what he wants, then just start over. This is the privilege of the third rank.
It’s just that... Li Qi doesn’t like to use this ability. He has never used it once until now, because his ‘Tao’, his answer to reality and illusion, does not allow him to treat these lives as phantoms.
So, in fact, Li Qi’s ability to trace back is quite weak, which is also the limitation brought by his ‘Answer of Tao’.
Just like some fourth-rank people cannot travel faster than the speed of light, their fourth-rank answers do not support them to travel faster than the speed of light at will, so their travel will be very troublesome.
Li Qi was the same. When he determined that this world was real, he also limited his magical powers. He could not go back to the world at will. This was not because he was not capable enough, but because he was subjectively unwilling to use this ability. Forcing it to use would harm his path.
However, correspondingly, he also gained the stability of authenticity. Facing attacks on his own existence, he could also rely on the stability of reality to make himself less susceptible to influence.
Thinking of this, Li Qi had finished the inspection.
The staff here were very friendly to Li Qi, but Li Qi knew the reason for the friendliness, because he could easily hear the information of everyone in the entire facility.
In the secret room that they thought was tightly protected, the previous three law enforcers had reported Li Qi's affairs to the top management.
This is a powerful, mysterious, but seemingly quite friendly weird.
The origin is unknown, but it has a very terrible power, and can even conjure a flower out of thin air.
That can never be a trick like magic, because the sample of the flower has been brought back. There is no such flower in this world. This is a non-existent species.
However, the act of taking the flowers for testing caused one of the three team members to become mentally unstable, so they were quickly returned to them, but that was enough.
Species that do not exist in this world... may be an important clue to explore this weirdness.
Moreover, this weirdness took the initiative to make his own request, he wanted to meet 'Cocoon'.
'Cocoon', the strongest weirdness ever recorded, calls herself 'Cocoon', is extremely friendly to humans. Even if she is attacked, abused, or criticized, she will be unconditionally tolerant, just like a mother.
But for things 'other than humans', she will become extremely violent. Although she will still obey people's orders and restrain herself, when facing the monsters set up for containment, she has attacked, torn and eaten other monsters several times.
After she eats other monsters, she will also undergo subtle changes, so in order to prevent the disappearance of the 'friendly to people' rule, she must not be allowed to eat unless it is a critical situation.
However, the ‘murderous infant’ was a super weirdness that the law enforcers could not handle, but it was solved by the weirdness in front of them, and there was not even a fight. In addition, the characteristics of the void creation and the same ‘friendly attitude towards people’ may allow the two to meet in isolation.
Li Qi observed and waited for about four or five hours, and only got the meeting qualification of ‘Cocoon’ after daytime.
He thanked the people around him politely, but this move made others sweat.
During this period, Li Qi also saw many weirdness similar to ‘magic weapons’, which were all items with special properties and various properties that only exist in the desire world, which was quite interesting.
Soon, Li Qi came to the underground secret room and saw the existence of ‘Cocoon’.
“Cocoon… This name is really good. Did you choose it yourself?” Li Qi was underground, across a thick glass wall, looking at the ‘female’ opposite.
It can only be described as female, because the other party looks like an anthropomorphic moth, looking… weird, beautiful, and pitiful.
Dark compound eyes, two tentacles on the forehead, covered with a lot of fluffy hair, but outside the hair, the rest of her translucent body has a fascinating light.
The moment the ‘Cocoon’ saw Li Qi, she went berserk.
No one expected that this peaceful and docile, even somewhat lovable ‘Cocoon’ would burst out with such a terrifying murderous intent when seeing another friendly weird for the first time!
Li Qi didn’t expect that, although he knew that he might not be very popular, he didn’t expect to cause such a big reaction.
So, in order to prevent scaring others, Li Qi waved his hand gently.
Time, stopped.
Except for Cocoon and Li Qi, the circulation of the qi of the entire world was stopped by Li Qi’s magical power, showing the effect of ‘time stop’.
Cocoon is still bursting with power, and even this power has reached the level of the eighth grade, which is the limit of this world. If it is left alone, it can probably destroy a city.
In this world, this is indeed the ‘strongest in history’.
But in front of Li Qi, it seems a little bit inferior.
Li Qi took a step forward, and the power of the cocoon was completely suppressed, shrinking into a ball.
"You should be the spirit condensed by the thoughts of the "Orthodox" believers, or according to the saying of this world... you are the "God" worshipped by the Orthodox?"
"I wanted to visit your church before, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Can I ask why you support industrialization, why you set up this organization to hunt other spiritual phenomena, and why you prevent these mortals from rushing to the sky? You should know the consequences of all this, right?"
Li Qi walked in front of the "cocoon" and said so to her.
The cocoon's attitude towards Li Qi was very violent. Her power was enough to destroy the city. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was a "God" in this world.
But unfortunately, in front of Li Qi, she had to "speak well".
"Dangerous... You are too dangerous. Where did you come from?" The cocoon looked at Li Qi and murmured.
Li Qi said: "Don't worry, I don't have any hostility. The purpose of my coming here is mainly to explore the relationship between you and the outside universe. I hope you can cooperate with me. If you agree, let's start all over again."
"Of course, if you don't agree, I will leave here, don't worry."
Jian raised her moth-like face and said: "...If you leave, all we have to face is destruction, right?"
"I don't know. In fact, if I figured out this problem, I wouldn't come here. Let's get back to the point. Why do you support industrialization? And you deliberately create such a painful scene. This shouldn't be in line with your character, right? You should want these mortals to be happy."
Hearing Li Qi's words, 'Jian' was silent for a long time.
It seems that she realized that she was not qualified to fight with the existence in front of her, and it was impossible for her to negotiate with the other party. Even the choice of 'refusing' was because of the other party's kindness.
This is also Li Qi's character. He was chased by the powerful and had no choice all the way, so...he would try his best to give others room for choice.
As mentioned before, after being caught in the rain, you want to hold an umbrella for others. (See Chapter 1 for details)
Then, the being called ‘Cocoon’ replied: “If there is no fog in the sky… then it will be very dangerous, even more dangerous than you.”
This made Li Qi raise his eyebrows and said: “As an eighth-grade… your senses are really, unexpectedly sharp.”
