Chapter 939 Persuasion
Chapter 939 Persuasion
"It's okay..."
Faced with this answer that was beyond its comprehension, but inexplicably recognized by Scarlet, the shriveled giant heart was silent for a while, then hummed dryly:
"It's a somewhat special answer, but it's not what I want. It's barely worth one... two extra heartbeats. My heart rate is now fifty-six and a half beats a minute, three and a half beats away from the standard of sixty. And you still have one last chance!"
"..."
It turns out he is illiterate.
After listening to Scarlet Heart's unconvincing evaluation, Leon couldn't help but frown. He did not argue with it about the right or wrong of the answer, but silently switched to [I am the end of death].
It is best if you can pass the test by answering the questions normally, but if you can't pass the test by answering the questions normally, don't blame yourself for using more exciting methods.
After putting on [End of Death], I can truly kill the Pillar God, and destroying the Pillar God's heart is naturally a piece of cake. So if it refuses to cooperate, you might as well stab it and let it feel the taste of death. See how many times it can jump in a minute in the face of real death!
"Boom!"
As if vaguely sensing Leon's "murderous intent", the Crimson Heart suddenly beat violently, and the originally stable beating rhythm was slightly disrupted for a moment.
He wants to attack me?
Feeling the determination in Leon's heart, if he had a face and a mouth, the Crimson Heart would probably laugh out loud at this moment...Are humans a little too arrogant now? What's the difference between wanting to threaten the heart of a Pillar God with force and spitting at the sky?
After feeling the strength of Leon's soul and finding that it was just an ordinary level that had just crossed the threshold of True God, Crimson Heart couldn't help but curl her non-existent mouth, and directly raised the difficulty of the third question she had prepared, and said impatiently:
"The last question is, blood is a bond, a legacy, and a continuation. For the vast majority of living beings, wealth, power, status, talent, and even power itself can all be passed on through blood.
But now you have to tell me something that is more and longer lasting than blood, and what is passed down through it is more valuable than wealth, status, and innate power... Come on, tell me your answer!"
A heritage more "advanced" than blood?
After hearing Scarlet Heart's third question, Leon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise... It wasn't that this question was difficult, but that it seemed a little too simple.
“It’s thought.”
After giving the answer without hesitation, Leon replied seriously:
“Wealth and status passed down through bloodline can only belong to a small number of people, but a great concept and thought can reach all souls that identify with it.”
"wrong!"
Faced with Leon's answer, Crimson Heart couldn't help but sneer, and then refuted with a hint of joking:
“The inheritance that is better than blood is memory. When I was one of the Four Supreme Gods, I took away four things from your human ancestors. They were [Lifespan], [Connection], [Creation], and [Inheritance]. Among them, the inheritance is the inheritance of memory.
Memory is a river older than blood. For those of you who still have the memory of inheritance at that time, the drowned become epics, the survivors become inscriptions, and everyone is a recorder of their ancestors and will be recorded by their successors. This is the true inheritance.
As for the idea you mentioned... haha, after losing the ability to pass on memory, it will take you humans half your life just to learn the knowledge of your ancestors, and each generation is worse than the previous one. Now you can't even answer such a basic question correctly.
Okay, your answer sucks, it's not even worth a heartbeat, you don't even meet the minimum standard, you're not qualified for me to work for you, you can get out!"
My answer is not worth even half a heartbeat?
Faced with the Scarlet Heart who had withdrawn into the keyhole and even withdrew her blood, Leon could not help but fall into silence. Seeing that he and Scarlet Heart seemed to have broken down in their discussion, Director Taurus beside him could not help but sigh, patted Leon's back, and then comforted him in a gentle voice:
"It doesn't matter. Even though it's just a heart, it has inherited the power of the Four Supreme Gods... Leon? What's this?"
"Its answer sounds good, but I think mine is better."
After stopping Director Taurus from closing the keyhole, Leon took out his silver cutting dagger and applied seriously:
"Mr. Taurus, please close the door a little later and give me a chance to convince it."
"..."
Convince it... Then shouldn't you use your mouth? What does it mean to suddenly pull out a knife?
"hehe."
Facing Leon who was still "obstinate", the crimson heart that had originally calmed down suddenly beat again, and then sneered:
"Let him do it! I don't believe he can really stab...Ah! Damn, are you really going to stab me?"
What else? I took out the knife but didn't stab you. Was it to use it as a mirror?
Under everyone's confused gaze, Leon, holding a silver cutting dagger, slashed and stabbed wildly at the more than two-meter-tall Crimson Heart. A large amount of crimson blood spurted out from the crack and fell on the ground with a dull sound like stones colliding.
When Leon swung his sword about seventeen or eighteen times, splitting the huge and tough heart in half, a huge bright red "water drop" suddenly passed through the sky of the dead world and fell into the lake below the Cliff of the End with a splash.
This...this is...
"This is the lake below the Cliff of the End, and it is also the end of death."
After identifying the fist-sized red water drop and confirming that it was the Crimson Heart itself, he waded over to the lake following Leon who had fallen into it, scooped up the fist-sized water drop, and said with ill intent:
"The living dissolve into the dead, just like water disappears into water... This sentence is a little difficult to understand. You can understand it as I have mastered the truth about death. My will exists at the end of death. Here I want to completely erase your existence, as simple as drinking a sip of water."
"you you……"
"You have two paths to choose from."
Rubbing the sticky red "water drop", Leon announced seriously:
"One is to be swallowed by me and completely disappear back into the world. The other is to admit that my answer is correct and then help me do things honestly."
"You...your answer?"
“Thoughts are a higher level of inheritance than blood.”
After repeating his point of view, Leon kneaded the water droplets in his hand that beat at least 200 times a minute, and said with a smile:
“I won’t go into the big principles, let’s just take the present as an example… You and I have no blood connection, so naturally there is no blood inheritance. But if you don’t want to be killed by me, you have to agree with my point of view, which is equivalent to accepting my thoughts.
So the inheritance of thoughts is more advanced than the inheritance of blood. Do you think I am right?"
