London, Clock Tower.
Modern magic classroom.
A young man with long black hair, about 1.8 meters tall, in a very bad mental state, as if he was about to die from overwork, was expounding his arguments on the podium.
The students listening to the lecture below were taking notes seriously.
On their desks, there was a book called "In Praise of the Strugglers".
"Teacher Weber, I have a question… Is the flawless person really dead?"
The girl with twin ponytails raised her hand to ask a question.
Since she accidentally learned that her sister Matou Sakura was very interested in the "flawless person", Tosaka Rin also began to study that period of history.
For ordinary people, the so-called great heroes are just myths and legends, and they are not even sure whether they really existed.
But the worldview of magicians is completely different.
They know very well.
——Gods exist.
So, those great heroes naturally exist too!
"I have experienced the Fifth Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. In that war, someone wanted to summon the Immaculate Person, but she failed."
"So, I have doubts about this. If the Immaculate Person is really dead, why can’t he be summoned?"
The Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City is not a secret, and the Clock Tower knows everything.
Didn’t Professor Weber on the podium and his teacher Professor Kenneth participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War?
Therefore, Rin Tohsaka mentioned this matter without hesitation.
"Please sit down first, Rin."
"Your point of view is very interesting and worth discussing."
After a little thought, Weber, who always likes to do theoretical research, also became interested.
"According to the description of the Praise of the Protestant, the Immaculate Man did perish together with the White Giant God in the end. This should not be wrong."
"The evidence is the stone tablet carved by the legendary female hunter Atalanta, which we excavated in Arcadia three years ago!"
Turning on the projection device in his hand, a photo of the stone tablet taken when it was first unearthed appeared on the screen behind Weber.
The stone tablet retains traces of time, and many of the words carved by Atalanta have become blurred.
Fortunately, by comparing with the incomplete copy of "Praise of the Protestant" that has been handed down, it can be completely restored.
"According to legend, Atalanta completed the engraving of the stele before her death and offered it as a sacrifice to Artemis, the goddess of hunting she believed in."
"As a sacrificial offering, the contents recorded on it are naturally impossible to be false……"
After a pause, Weber remembered another view of the academic community on the flawless person, and changed his words in time: "At least, most of the description should be correct."
"But teacher, the firstDuring the fifth Holy Grail War, the witch was indeed unable to summon a flawless person. What happened? "
"I don’t know either."
Faced with Rin Tohsaka’s question, Weber finally shook his head and said, "The Clock Tower has thoroughly studied the Holy Grail rituals of the Far East. The former monarch of the Celestial Department, Marisbilly, modified this summoning ritual and used it in the regular rituals of Chaldeas."
"If you want to understand the Holy Grail ritual more deeply, perhaps you can get the answer you want in Chaldeas. ”
Lord Marisbury?
Tousaka Rin naturally knew the name of this former monarch. After all, he was the victor who successfully summoned King Solomon in the Fifth Holy Grail War!
At that time, Tousaka Rin and he were still allies!
It’s a pity…………..
This very capable monarch was assassinated in his office not long after he successfully founded Chaldeas.
The current director of Chaldea should be his daughter, Olga Marie, right?
“Okay, Rin, do you have any other questions?”
“No, thank you for your answer, Professor Weber. ”
Shaking her head, Rin Tosaka sat back in her seat.
But her thoughts had already left the classroom.
What happened during the Fifth Holy Grail War was replayed in her mind, about the Hero King, King Solomon, and the mysterious witch…
Perhaps, I should really go to Chaldeas to take a look.
For some reason, this thought suddenly popped up in Rin Tosaka’s mind, and it became more and more intense.
It was as if fate was guiding her to Chaldea to solve the confusion in her heart.
This is Chaldeas, located in Antarctica, which is covered with ice and snow all year round.
Lin Yi, who had just finished the simulation, was still a little dazed.
Unable to get rid of the influence of the simulation.
He felt that this simulator had completely thrown his soul into the distant Greek Age of Gods.
Body Experience a brand new life.
Memories of Zoe kept emerging in Lin Yi’s mind, as if he had walked the same path again.
As memories slowly emerged, the template of the hero on the simulator finally began to settle.
[Ding——]
[Simulation ended. ]
[Panel is being settled, please wait! ]
A familiar prompt sounded, and after about a few seconds, the personal panel of "The Flawless Man" appeared on Lin Yi’s retina.
Lin Yi drank a sip of ice water, and with the coolness, he dispelled the last trace of chaos in his brain.
He looked at it carefully, and a smile appeared on his face at just one glance.
The reason is simple!
This panel is really too strong!
It is so strong that it can be seen with the naked eye!
There is a kind of numerical beauty!
Just the panel of "The Flawless Man" can easily get a crown position!
Especially one of the treasures, the machine god Knoroth.
Once released, it is a pure main god-level combat power!
In the Holy Grail War, it is a complete dimensionality reduction attack!
It is not difficult to speed through overnight.
Not to mention the servants, even if the Heroic Spirit comes down, it can only look at the machine god and sigh.
"In this way, even if I face Goetia, I have the power to protect myself."
Lin Yi felt at ease, and his anxiety all along dissipated a lot.
The combat power of the normal main god level is not much inferior to that of the perfect beast.
This can be seen from Quetzalcoatl.
She is just a servant, and she was cheated of half of her divinity by Merlin. She still smashed Tiamat’s shield with one blow and directly hurt the body of the Mother Goddess of Creation.
As a main god, the machine god Kronos is definitely not worse than Quetzalcoatl except for his lack of power!
According to this logic, Lin Yi feels that the flawless human template alone may be able to compete with Goetia, or at least not lose!
With strength, there is confidence.
The dark clouds that have been hanging over the head for many years gradually disappeared.
The doctor who is good at observation noticed the change in Lin Yi’s mentality.
He subconsciously cast a glance and looked at the boy carefully.
"What’s wrong? Dr. Romani, why are you staring at me?"
"Ah! Sorry, sorry!"
The moment he was discovered, his wise eyes immediately faded, and Romani immediately returned to his usual unreliable and weak appearance, apologizing repeatedly: "I just feel that something has changed in you, Lin Yi…"
"Changes? What changes?"
"How should I put it? I can’t really describe it. If I have to say it, it’s like taking off some shackles! I feel like you seem to be much more relaxed. Did something good happen to you?"
What a sharp intuition!
Should I say that he is worthy of being Solomon? Even though he has lost all his strength, he still retains that wisdom.
Lin Yi admired in his heart.
"I did encounter some good things."
"What?"
Romani came up with a somewhat obscene smile: "Did the director accept your confession? Congratulations, when you marry into the Animusphia family, remember to give me a raise! Please!"
Why do you want a raise?
Because this guy helps Magical Girl Meili with high intensity every month to get on the list.
He fights against many local tyrants on the platform with his own strength.
With Romani like this, no matter how much money he gives, he can’t afford it!
"By the way, Lin Yi, I forgot to tell you something."
As if he thought of something, Romani smiled awkwardly and said carefully: "Professor Leif asked me to find you just now, I forgot to say…"
"Just now it wasHow long?"
"About ……………… half an hour ago?" (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"Romani."
"Why…what happened?"
Lin Yi smiled, stood up and patted his shoulder.
When he walked to the door, he said leisurely: "I will report to Director Olga about your slacking off at work, watching live broadcasts and eating strawberry cakes."
"No! Lin Yi, we are half-brothers! ”
Hearing this, Romani was devastated.
His face turned pale.
When he thought about being deducted from his salary again, his world was falling!
If he was deducted again, how could he help Meili-chan to get on the list?!
This person…………….
There is really no hope.
Lin Yi really wanted to tell Romani that the magical girl Meili you pursued was actually Merlin, the old man, in disguise.
Forget it, let’s not talk about it.
Wait until he realizes the truth, or summons Merlin one day, it should be more interesting, right?
The young man raised his eyebrows and began to look forward to that moment.
The chat group was still very quiet, with only the sentence sent by Lin Yi himself.
The others did not reply as if they had not seen it.
“Is there something wrong? Or did they not notice the existence of this chat group at all? "
Lin Yi thought so in his heart, and unknowingly, he had walked to the door of Leif’s office.[]
Leif’s full name is Leif Lenor Flauros.
He is also affectionately called "Grand Bomber" by the majority of players.
With his own strength, he blew up the entire Chaldea. If it weren’t for Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu being late, the doctor would have escaped.
Maybe Goetia would have succeeded.
I can only say that the title of Grand Bomber is well deserved!
Knock knock knock.
The wooden door was knocked, and the voice of a young man came from inside.
"Come in."
"Excuse me. "
Lin Yi pushed the door open and sat on the sofa opposite Leif’s desk like an old friend, and made himself a cup of coffee.
In fact, he and Leif have a good relationship.
As mentioned before, Lin Yi’s major is psychology.
Having witnessed Mash’s experience and despairing of human beings, Leif often went to talk to Lin Yi for a while.
The boy’s remarks and profound thoughts gave Leif a lot of inspiration.
So, he liked the feeling of talking to Lin Yi.
In a sense, Leif actually regarded Lin Yi as a "teacher".
As soon as they met, a smile from the heart appeared on his face.
"Doctor Lin, I shouldn’t have disturbed your work, right?"
"No, I just finished counseling the director, and I just happened to be free."
"That’s good."
Lefe also poured himself a cup of coffee. He sat opposite Lin Yi and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
But he hesitated, not knowing whether to say it.
Lin Yi saw his entanglement, but did not urge him, just waited quietly.
As a professional psychologist, he never put too much pressure on patients.
Those with psychological problems actually need a qualified listener, not a condescending instructor.
Especially people like Leif.
He knows exactly what he has done, what he is doing, and what he is going to do.
It’s useless to reason with such a person.
He has his own decision.
If he wants to say it, he will say it.
Click——
Click——
The minute hand of the clock on the wall jumped two ticks.
The tangled Leif finally made a decision.
"Sorry, I was just thinking about how to tell you about my troubles, Dr. Lin."
"No need to apologize. As a doctor, the thing I lack the most is patience. Have you thought about what to say, Professor Leif?"
Lin Yi put down the coffee, still looking calm and composed.
The boy’s soothing body movements and demeanor also affected Leif to some extent.
He relaxed a lot visibly.
"Dr. Lin, what do you think of humans?"
After a moment of hesitation, Leif began today’s conversation.
As expected, the topic was so heavy at the beginning.
"I mean the human race. Do you feel despair towards humans sometimes? Just like Mashu, Dr. Lin, you have also seen how those researchers treated her!"
"These bastards! They don’t even regard Mashu as a human being! In my opinion, Mashu is a real person, and they are just garbage! A bunch of garbage that deserves to be burned!"
Speaking of Mashu, Leif’s tone quietly became fierce.
He liked this innocent and kind girl very much, (Ma Zhao Zhao) even though Mashu was just a low-level artificial human.
After scolding for several minutes, Leif finally regained his composure.
The gloomy look also faded away.
"I’m sorry, Dr. Lin. I lost my composure just now."
"It’s okay. It’s human nature. To be honest, I sometimes get angry because of what happened to Mashu."
"Oh? So how do you view humans? In your eyes, are humans good beings or a collection of evil?"
"This is a very sharp question."
Lin Yi did not answer immediately, but quoted the theories of Xunzi and Mencius, and said: "Thousands of years ago, the ancient sages of China had already debated and explained the nature of human beings."
"Mencius believed that human nature is good at the beginning. Human beings are born with good nature, and they need to useEducation is the means to stabilize people’s kindness. Those who do evil lose their kindness because they have not received a good education and are influenced by the outside world. "
"The other idea is proposed by Xunzi, who believes that human beings are born evil, so external laws and education must be used to regulate human nature."
"Professor Leif, which theory do you think is correct?"
This…………….
Leif was a little confused. He felt that both theories seemed to make sense.
If you say that human nature is good, he has seen all the bad things that Chaldea has done.
But if you say that human nature is evil, Mashu really exists here.
How to choose Khan?
Because of the closedness of Shenzhou, Leif, who was exposed to Confucianism for the first time, fell into deep thought.
After thinking hard but to no avail, he had to look up at Lin Yi and ask for the boy’s opinion.
"Doctor Lin, what would you choose? ”
“Why should I choose?”
The young man was still calm and relaxed. He smiled and said, “Good or evil, it’s just a matter of thought. Human nature is always complicated. We should look at the world dialectically.”
“Good people can do evil, and bad people can do good. This is how human beings are. Rather than forcibly distinguishing between good and evil, I prefer to call it chaos.”
